Chapter 28: Let's explain the situation

Ten minutes ago. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

After discovering that the door could not be opened, the players in the entire room panicked in an instant.

While it seems that such an external danger does not seem to be a cause for concern, if the room is really as safe as Pale Flame says, according to the rule that this rematch must die enough before it will end, maybe they will be trapped here forever. It's not hard to think of this, but people who have been paying attention to it all the time will be able to think of it.

Even considering all the deaths outside, the possibility of being trapped here forever is not high, and I really don't want to kill people for no reason and cause more incidents, and it is reassuring to think that others can think of this.

No one can know what others are thinking, and no one can be sure what kind of people others are. What's more, the people in this room were full of distrust of each other from the beginning, and if they couldn't keep that person's brain, they would kill themselves if they attacked irregularly. So maybe it's better to strike first – and with that in mind, it's even more important to prevent others from making the first move.

This mental journey is long to say, but it only takes a minute or two. Although Xiao Cang didn't expect so much, he still sensitively smelled the nervous breath and made the correct judgment that he needed to give these people a landing.

So, before someone could strike first, the contestants in this room were forced by the obscenity of Pale Flame to find a way to leave this room. Although this work contradicts what Xiao Cang said before about resisting threats from the outside, no one complains at this time.

According to their observations, the décor and arrangement of this room resembles the interior of a type of building known in this world as a "game hall". Because of the limited area, there are only three oddly shaped game consoles, as well as a counter.

These three game consoles are mainly red and black, and the patterns painted on them are chaotic and crazy, although it is impossible to see what is drawn, but it gives the impression of three words that are very clear, "darkness", "fire", "blood", and when combined, it can be said that it is hell. The game's initial screen on the screen is a string of text that is similarly distorted and curious.

Besides, although the NPCs in this room come from many different countries, when they see this string of words, they understand its meaning as easily as if they were seeing their own native language.

"Despair consoles, just need to experience the deepest despair once to give you a staggering number of points. It's a must-have for murder, arson, self-abuse, and suicide, and you deserve it. ”

Although it looked wrong, they decided to send a representative to try it out when they couldn't find anything else of interest in the room. After Xiao Cang volunteered to be this representative, the others instantly expressed their enthusiasm that they would eliminate all difficulties in using this machine for Xiao Cang.

In a hunting machine behind the counter that looks like a cash register and ends with a finger that will be cut off, an unlucky player accidentally sacrifices three fingers to get three game coins, which also brings a breakthrough to the wide-eyed Xiao Cang of the game machine.

After the people around him retreated to make a large circular clearing, Xiao Cang confidently and briefly familiarized himself with the joysticks and buttons on the game console, then smiled and gave a thumbs up to the circle of people around him, and finally threw the game currency into the groove, ready to go - and then, the screen of the game console suddenly began to fluctuate, creating a strong suction......

…………

Right now.

"How?" The greetings of concern made people feel extremely warm.

Pale Yan crawled out with a smile on his face, adjusted his posture, and gave a thumbs up to the large group of people on the side who were full of concern: "Don't worry! I have no problem! You see, unscathed, red in the face! ”

"We're not asking this—" muttered a man with a very green face, but before he could finish his sentence, he shut his mouth under the unkind eyes of the people around him.

A relatively mature player in his thirties, coughed twice, quieted the others, and as a representative, with a friendly and concerned smile on his face, he spoke, "Really? That's great. That is, it is safe inside? ”

"Hmm." Xiao Cang may not have heard the words of the young man before, maybe he didn't think too much, maybe he didn't care whether these people cared about him or the situation there, in short, he still maintained his sunny smile as always, "I didn't do anything after I went in, I just had a meal with a very kind family, and it was over." ”

"Really? That's great. The player representative said this, but his eyes and expression clearly showed doubt.

The players looked at each other in disbelief, suspicion and confusion for a moment, and then the same player representative from before continued: "Uh-huh, was it just a meal?" Something else- I'm not doubting you, it's just—"

Xiao Cang grinned twice: "I know, I know, after all, this thing has such a strange shape, such a twisted decoration, and an unlucky name like 'Desperate Game Machine', and the content is really unbelievable." ”

A group of players, including the player's representative, looked embarrassed, and some opened their mouths to explain: "No—"

"Actually, I don't think I understand it. But it's as simple as that. Xiao Cang directly interrupted those people's denials, and didn't pay attention to their more embarrassing appearances, and after smiling, he frowned and began to think, "By the way, how long have I been in it?" Did any of the accidents happen just now? ”

At this time, the dense crowd finally gradually dispersed, and Wu Ansu was able to squeeze in from the outside, and said with a smile: "You just stayed inside for two minutes, even if there is any accident that wants to happen, it will be too late." ”

Xiao Cang's eyes widened: "Is it only two minutes?" But I felt like I had been eating there for at least two hours...... Well, then, whether you plan to experience it or not, come and listen to it first, and then be prepared. ”

Xiao Cang thought for a moment, and then said in a loud voice to the large group of players in front of him: "Maybe there are still things I haven't noticed, and I don't know if these two points are common. However, in my experience this time, there are only two things to pay attention to in this so-called 'trial'. ”

"Number one, when I was having dinner with the family just now, if I'm not mistaken, I was a 12-year-old. Judging by the height of the other people and buildings, and the way I look in the mirror, I should have been a 12-year-old kid at the time, and I wasn't me. ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Cang paused, seeing that the players were talking about this point for themselves, and for a while they felt quite proud of their ability to grasp the key points, so he waited a little longer, and when those people finished discussing and focused on themselves again, he cleared his throat and continued:

"Second, during the period of time before I entered and left, I lost my memory of what had happened before. And it's not the kind of person who knows about amnesia all at once, but the impression of the previous events has become blurred, well, and I don't know if it's because I'm personally stupid, I didn't try to remember the previous events, or rather, I didn't think in that direction at all. ”

Xiao Cang scratched his head a little embarrassed: "Anyway, in the period before I left after eating, I completely thought of myself as the 12-year-old boy - wait a minute, the thing in the mirror always feels very familiar, and a little annoying......"

Xiao Cang's voice became smaller and smaller as he spoke, his head lowered, his brows furrowed, his eyes narrowed, and he subconsciously bit his thumb, as if he was thinking about something seriously, until Wu Ansu came up and patted his head, which was considered to be coming back to his senses.

"What do you think?" Wu Ansu smiled very softly and helped Xiao Cang sort out his clothes while asking.

"No, it's nothing, it's not a big deal." Xiao Cang responded with a smirk, seeing him smile like this, it was indeed hard to believe what he was thinking about just now......

At this moment, one of the people in the group of contestants who was discussing next to him suddenly said, "Wait a minute, if there is amnesia, is there any point in discussing this?" Rather, from the very beginning, what he said made sense......"

Halfway through this buddy's speech, he felt that the atmosphere around him suddenly became stiff, and even the temperature dropped several degrees, and then he realized that he was complaining that he was complaining about a strong man whose combat power was so high that he didn't know where to go, and his brain seemed to be a little difficult to use, in other words, he was dying. What's more, this dude is an NPC.

After experiencing the change in atmosphere, this buddy, who was not thoughtful enough but had a quick brain, realized the stupid mistake he had made in a flash of lightning, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and slowly turned his head away, looking at him with the pale Yan who was looking at him with care.

At this moment, he hated himself for not honestly listening to his parents' teachings in the past, paying attention to keeping his mouth shut, and deeply examined his past wasted years, deeply felt that he violated the earnest teachings of the elementary school teacher who introduced him to read "How Steel is Made", and lamented that the future time that he had never imagined would never come.

He was immersed in such complex emotions and looked at Xiao Cang for a full minute, and then finally accepted the reality, his eyes slowly closed, and all kinds of people and things he had encountered in the past, big or small, passed in front of his eyes like a marquee, no matter what he thought was good or bad at the time, now he greedily wants to re-experience these, and he is extremely nostalgic for these.

At this moment, the voice of Pale Flame representing the end finally sounded: "Yes! What a reasonable look! ”

"And just like that, my life ended. It's not a pity, but I don't feel satisfied. Incomparably empty, is this what death feels like—alas? After some sighing, the NPC who realized that he was not dead realized that Pale Yan was saying something, and looked over in disbelief.

Obviously, Pale Flame was not saying some mean counter-words to sarcastically mockery, he just walked up to him with sincere respect and favor, and at the same time said, "You are very smart. Speaking of which, you can see that, right? I'm not very mentally -- ahem, I mean, I'm slow to react, sometimes I can't react all at once. Can you help me think about it? ”

“…… Alas? ”
