Forest of the Dead: Cabin in the Woods

When One-Eye pulled the trigger, Arthur subconsciously closed his eyes and raised his hand in front of his head.

"Bang-"

A cannon salute rang out, and Arthur opened his eyes to find that the gun in One-Eye's hand had fired not bullets, but fireworks that had exploded at the muzzle.

Arthur paused for a moment.

"Hahaha, idiot, fooled!" One-Eye shook the gun in his hand and looked at Arthur with mocking eyes.

It turned out that it was not a pistol, but a fireworks.

I don't know where One-Eye found the prank tool, although naïve, it also fits his style.

Arthur looked at One-Eye with a dark line on his face, and suddenly felt angry that he had been played like a fool.

One-Eye threw the gun in his hand to the first floor, and was throwing it on the carpet on the ground on the first floor, and then he supported the railing with both hands, and flipped out of the second floor, and after a cheer, he smashed it on the sofa, causing Lorraine and Ogar on the other side of the sofa to almost fall to the ground.

"Hey, One-Eyed, please be normal!" Lorraine glared at One-Eye.

"Normal? Beauty, how did you come up with the idea of using such a terrible word to describe me? ”

One-eyed stepped on the couch, straightened his hand against the back of the chair, rubbed his hair, and looked at Lorraine nonchalantly.

"Indeed, I find it strange ...... too"

Lorraine shook her head, looking away from One-Eye.

"Ah...... Lost ......" and Ogar, who was playing the game, suddenly jumped onto the sofa due to one-eyed, her hand shook, and the character in the game console failed to climb over a ravine, fell into a trap, and failed to break through.

Icarus stood against the sofa, watching the farce with cold eyes, taking a sip of coffee, but not talking nonsense.

"Oh, why is it so lively here?" A few steps away, the beautiful woman who had just come out of the room was standing in front of the railing on the second floor, looking down on the four people on the first floor.

"It feels good that way, at least I don't have to separate into two worlds anymore - while I survive, I have to worry about my partner, for fear of being implicated." The Duke also came out of the room.

"Involved? Dear partner, are you talking about me. The beauty raised an eyebrow and looked at the duke.

"Isn't it, in the last game, if you hadn't died, how could I have died in front of the mirror?" The Duke glanced at the beauty.

"Oh, it makes sense, you're the only butcher on the front side of the mirror, I'm the only lamb on the back side of the mirror, and five people are chasing me, it's a miracle that you can live that long, okay?" The beauty rolled her eyes and twisted to walk up the stairs, "I want to ask you why you are moving so slowly, if you had killed Colin and Ogar earlier, Caesar, Mars, and J, we would have won a long time ago." ”

The Duke snorted coldly and did not answer.

She headed for the stairs on the other side.

A circular corridor on the second floor, with a staircase on the left and right sides, which leads down to the living room on the first floor.

"Looks like it's pretty safe here." J's voice came from behind him, and Arthur turned around and saw that he had also come out of the room, J's room was next to his, but J was a little more cautious than he was, and only walked out of the room after making sure there was no danger outside the door.

"It's all an illusion. After the second siren, this place will be more terrifying than anywhere else. Arthur added.

Hearing this, J smiled faintly and tugged at the pigtail tied at the back of his head.

He seems to have gradually adapted to this place, to how to find peace for a while in a world full of murderous machines.

J leaned on the railing with both hands and looked down on the first floor, and saw the beauty walking to the refrigerator and opening the refrigerator, while the one-eyed person on the sofa saw this and shouted at the top of his voice-

"Hey, bitch, get me a cold beer."

The beauty turned her head and glared at one-eyed: "You pay me attention to the words, stinky blind man!" ”

One-eyed smiled, simply stood on the sofa, bowed to the beauty, and said in a drumming tone: "Lovely and beautiful lady, please bring me a bottle of cold beer, thank you." ”

"Oh, what a polite gentleman you are...... But I'm sorry, take it yourself. The beauty took a bottle of beer, opened the lid of the beer, drank the bottle of beer and left, and gave one eye a "what can you do" look while drinking.

"You stinky bitch!"

One-eyed jumped off the couch, and he walked over to the beauty and smiled slightly.

The beauty raised her eyebrows: "Huh? What, you want to drink the beer I've drunk? ”

One-eyed showed a sneer, then he grabbed the beauty's wrist, grabbed the beauty's neck with the other hand, and pressed her against the floor-to-ceiling window on the first floor, the beer bottle in the beauty's hand shook for a moment, and the beer inside shook out.

The other players who watched the excitement were shocked and didn't know what One-Eyes was going to do.

“…… One-eyed, the second alarm hasn't started yet, you're killing me now, it's not in order. ”

"Of course I'm not going to defy the law." One-eyed approached the beauty, and at this time, the look of joke in his eyes faded from before, and replaced with the fierceness that had been hidden by him all along.

"Do you remember what you told me in the last game?"

He could lower his voice and speak in a tone that only two people could hear.

The beauty restrained her charming demeanor and looked at the one-eyed seriously.

“…… What do you mean? ”

"Yelena." One-Eye said the name that had been hidden in his heart, "What you said in the last game was that J guy killed Elena, is it true?" ”

"Does truth matter so much? One-eyed, you and I are destined to stay here anyway......"

Before the beauty could finish speaking, One-Eye grabbed her neck and smashed her head against the floor-to-ceiling window, making a "bang" sound, and Ogar on the side was so frightened that he hid behind Lorraine.

"Whatever I ask, you answer is enough." One-Eye said fiercely.

“…… It's true. ”

"How do you know?!"

"I can't remember the specifics, but after a round in the game, my memory has recovered a little." The beauty looked at One-eyed, "It's also a veteran player who has participated in two rounds of the game, I guess you can also feel the same way, occasionally you can remember some vague past, although it is only a fragment, but it is so real." ”

“……”

One-Eyed did not deny it.

"In that memory, I see...... It was one night, the police station was on fire, and a woman was sitting in the interrogation room by the window, her left hand was handcuffed, unable to get out, and burned alive. The beauty glanced at One-Eyed and said in a hoarse voice, "It wasn't until later, when I saw the appearance of a murderous scorpion and a mermaid, that I realized that the woman I remembered looked the same as the Elena in your mouth, and it should be the same person." ”

Listening to the beauty's words, One-Eye lowered his eyes, his eyes wavered, and the depths of his dark pupils seemed to be burning with the raging fire of that night.

He seemed to have come to the scene of the fire in the mouth of the beauty, as if he also saw a helpless woman locked in the interrogation room in handcuffs.

She looked at the window of the interrogation room with tears in her eyes, and she was left in the fire forever when it was clear that it was a living heaven outside the window......

After a while, One-Eye raised his head to look at the beauty, increasing the strength of the hand holding the back of her neck.

"What about J?! How do you know he did this?! ”

“…… Because the people who appeared in my memory were not only the poor woman, but also J in the sheriff's costume, who stood outside the police station, ran to the window of the police station where the fire was burning, and tried to pry open the window of the interrogation room to save people, but the window of the interrogation room was reinforced with special materials, and there was no way to open it, so he stood outside the window, said sorry, and knelt down. The beauty said, pausing for a few seconds before adding, "He, like me, watched Yelena get burned to death. ”

These words, like a dagger, dig into the one-eyed heart.

His face became heavier and heavier, and he couldn't help but increase the strength of his hands, and the beauty's wrists and neck were pinched by him for a while, and he struggled for a while, and then One-Eye came back to his senses, looked at the beauty, and after being silent for a long time, he let go of her.

The beauty stood firm on the floor-to-ceiling window, her wrist was pinched by one eye and bruised, this man didn't take it lightly, he was a madman who never pitied the fragrance and cherished the jade.

One-Eye walked to the couch with a heavy heart, and the black blade that had just come down from the second floor hit his shoulder, and he didn't seem to feel it.

Black Blade glanced at One-Eye, feeling that his state was a little strange, but after thinking about it, since he had nothing to do with him, he went with him.

“……”

Blackblade walked over to the couch, picked up the console that had fallen to the floor, looked up, and watched the TV screen show that the game was at a standstill. This seems to be a game from a few years ago.,It's a simple game.,The player controls the villain in the game to move back and forth through the gamepad.,Avoid falling stones.,Jump over the traps on the ground.,Defeat the monsters that suddenly appeared.,A level to break through.,The more difficult the game is.,The higher the frequency of obstacles.、Traps、The higher the frequency of monsters.,The higher the requirements for the player's reaction ability and coping ability.。

Blackblade sat down on the couch with the gamepad in his hand, he clicked "Start Game", and the little man on the screen began to continue his adventure.

He seems to be familiar with the game, and he has become proficient in it in just a few clicks. Under his control, the villain on the screen can flexibly avoid all falling rocks, obstacles, and traps, and as if clockwork, he has become a villain with independent consciousness, and his actions are smooth and fast.

In fact, the 12 of them, even those NPCs, aggressive creatures, are not like the villains in this game.

Controlled, imprisoned in a virtual world, unable to leave or die, the system will regenerate them at the end of one game and continue to meet the unknown challenges in the next game.

Now, who is the villain in the game who is playing the game, playing with them in front of a bigger screen?

Thinking of this, the black blade narrowed his eyes slightly, he manipulated the gamepad, and the villain jumped over the last obstacle, volleyed up, pulled out his sword, killed a monster in front of him, and successfully cleared the level.

"Wow, you're amazing!!" Ogar couldn't help but clap his hands as he looked at the black blade's skillful game skills.

Blackblade glanced at her, and his gaze fell on the small whistle on her chest.

Fragments of the unpleasant past flashed through his mind, and he immediately suppressed his thoughts, beckoned, and motioned for Ogar to come to him.

Ogar looked at Lorraine, who gave her a "reassuring" look, and the little girl walked over to Blackblade.

"Do you want to learn?" Blackblade asked in a deep voice.

"Is that okay?" Ogar's eyes lit up.

"Look, this is the attack button, this is the advance button, this is the jump button, if you encounter a trap, you have to press the forward button and the jump button at the same time, and the villain can jump over......" The black blade's deep voice came through the gas mask, Ogar lowered his head, looked at the game controller seriously, and wrote down the game skills that the black blade said.

A child is a child, and it is easy to be distracted.

Sometimes giving them a candy is enough to make them forget their fears and forget their sorrows.

This is the innocence of children.

The Duke sat at the dining table, looking coldly at the inexplicable warm picture of the living room, silently isolating himself from the crowd.

She doesn't like to get together.

I didn't like it when I lost my memory, and I don't like it now.

Icarus walked over with a coffee mug and walked around her at the table to the coffee machine.

"Would you like a drink? Canary. His voice was magnetic.

"Nope."

"What, you're afraid I'll be poisoned?" Icarus teased.

"I'm not afraid of poisoning, but I'm worried about whether there will be some unclean things." The Duke glanced at Icarus and saw that he was filling some jars of coffee beans into the coffee machine, which also had the function of grinding coffee beans, allowing the drinker to taste the original freshly ground coffee.

The coffee beans are ground little by little, and the aroma of the coffee slowly ripples through the air.

"The facilities here are really complete." The Duke muttered.

"yes." Icarus looked at the kitchen counter and refrigerator, he opened the refrigerator door and found that the refrigerator contained everything from frozen food to snacks and drinks, in addition, the kitchen counter also has a microwave oven for heating, an oven, etc., so that players can make their own food, "It's not so much a virtual game scene as a 1:1 simulation model." ”

“…… You mean to say that there really is such a place in reality? ”

Icarus nodded and looked at the floor-to-ceiling window on the first floor, outside the window, there was also a large coniferous forest: "It's not impossible, don't you think the layout here is very much like a homestay in the woods?" Or is it like a small tourist camp? ”

After his reminder, the Duke also felt that this statement made sense.

"It's true that there were some wild homestays that were popular for a while, and I remember that those small mountain inns were almost arranged like this, with no waiters, but the food and daily necessities were prepared, allowing travelers to live self-sufficiently for a while and experience life in the woods......"

The Duke said, looking at Icarus, only to find that he was looking at him with an intriguing expression.

“…… What are you looking at? ”

"Nothing."

After the coffee machine finished grinding the coffee beans, adding hot water, and automatically brewing a pot of coffee, Icarus poured a cup of coffee in his white coffee cup, and the aroma of coffee lingered around the two of them.

"Icarus, have something to say, say it straight."

Icarus smiled inexplicably, put the cup of coffee in front of the duke, patted her on the shoulder, and whispered in her ear, "I was just thinking, canary, when did you remember all those trifles that happened in real life?" Even such a thing as a wild homestay is remembered. ”

He left a word and walked away from her.

The Duke looked at Icarus's back and fell silent.

The faint aroma of coffee floated in the air, she picked up the cup of coffee and took a sip gently, it was a little bitter, but after the bitterness, it was mellow.

She remembers the taste of this coffee bean, which is Arabica bean.

The memories that had been lost were reloaded into her heart, filling the void in her heart, so that she was no longer vacant and regretful. With these memories, she became a whole person again, and it was only in the face of everything she came into contact with that her feelings became more real.

She likes the feeling, like a bird floating in mid-air, worrying about falling every second, finally landing on the ground, with a sense of groundedness.

And these memories, these pasts, can help her much more than that.

Thinking so, the Duke looked up and saw Mars standing in the corridor on the second floor.

He was leaning against the railing, staring at her, his eyes full of suspicion.

The Duke took another sip of coffee without hurry, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly.
