00179 Cheater
"The Other Shore" Virtual Reality ********
When Qi Xuan woke up, his first feeling was that his abdomen was swollen and painful, and this pain made him roll out of bed as soon as he opened his eyes, and then lay on the ground and vomited heavily.
What came out was a black, slimy mess that didn't smell fishy, but had a metallic jerkyness.
What is it?
After vomiting, Qi Xuan felt much more comfortable, and he began to wonder what he was spitting out, and then the black thing squirmed, and then disintegrated into countless pitch-black little robots, which fled along the cracks in the ground, and all disappeared in less than a moment.
Seeing this scene, Qi Xuan's scalp couldn't help but tingle, and he retched again, but unfortunately this time his stomach was empty, and he began to feel hungry.
"Are you awake?" After hearing the sound of vomiting, the person outside the house pushed the door open.
Qi Xuan raised his head and looked over, it was a girl who looked beautiful but looked cold and lifeless, she had long black hair, which hung down to her calves, and her whole body was wrapped in a white-toned embodied fitting equipment, she scanned Qi Xuan and said, "If you're hungry, come out and eat, you have to walk a long way in a while." ”
Qi Xuan was a little confused, but fortunately, he had regained control of his body and was conscious.
Following the girl out of the room, three children ran through the old passage outside, and they looked very happy.
"Don't run too fast! Beware of falling! An elderly mother-in-law followed behind, and when she saw the girl, she immediately said with trepidation: "I'm sorry to disturb you." ”
The girl didn't speak, she smiled rarely, and walked on.
Seeing the mother-in-law follow the children away, Qi Xuan was even more at a loss: "Is this still an abandoned underground world?" How can there be humans? ’
Walking for about three hundred meters with doubts, Qi Xuan met many people along the way, they lived on both sides of the passage, those rooms that looked like they had been transformed were very narrow, but everyone who lived here looked happy, which also made this cramped room a lot warmer.
"Excuse me, where is this?" Approaching the end of the passage, Qi Xuan plucked up his courage and asked.
The girl didn't look back, she only replied softly, "This is the 103rd basement floor of Piano. ”
"103 Floors ?!!" Qi Xuan was stunned, then didn't this mean that he had come to the floor where Hua's mother was?
"Yes, this was supposed to be the end of your journey, but the Prophet called you two days ago, and now you are one of us." The girl pushed open the door at the end of the passage.
Before the door opened, Qi Xuan heard the voices of people outside the door.
After the door was officially opened, everything outside the room made Qi Xuan dumbfounded.
The scene before me is no less rich and vibrant than Cerberus, with all the necessary conditions for human survival, baths, miniature cities, and a lot of human beings.
Moreover, according to Qi Xuan's estimate, the area of the 103 underground floors is enough to add up to the sum of all the floors he has experienced.
"Go this way." After saying a word, the girl began to turn left and walked along the suspended walkway towards a transparent house.
Qi Xuan hurriedly followed, and his doubts were even more when he was on the way.
If this is the 103rd floor in Hua's mouth, then where is the mother who was taken away from them? Or was the mission itself a hoax from the start, and Hua was just using them?
With such doubts, Qi Xuan followed the girl to the transparent house.
There were only three people in the house, an uncle who was busy, an old woman with a kind smile, and a young man about Qi Xuan's age leaning against the edge of the room.
When Qi Xuan walked into this room, the uncle smiled and said, "Yo, Coco is here, the meal will be ready soon." ”
"Hello Uncle Li, good afternoon, mother-in-law." The girl walked up to the old woman and greeted her with a warm forehead, and the old woman smiled and touched her little face.
The girl named Coco looked at the young man, but did not speak, as if she had a relationship with him.
Qi Xuan in front of the door looked at all this, there was an embarrassment of his first visit, he was stunned at a loss, until the old woman looked over and said gently: "Don't stand there, my child, come in and sit." ”
Qi Xuan smiled dryly, then entered the room and sat down on the sofa opposite the old woman.
"Drink tea." Coco was quite thoughtful to Qi Xuan's hospitality, she poured Qi Xuan a cup of tea and then went to help her uncle cook.
"Uh, thank you." Qi Xuan, a big boy like a son-in-law who had just entered the door, was uncomfortable all the time, especially when the kind mother-in-law kept staring at him, that kind smile could also make Qi Xuan feel creepy.
It seems that everything can be perceived by the mysterious mother-in-law in front of her.
"You must be hungry and frightened." The mother-in-law sat up a little, and she stretched out her hand and handed Qi Xuan a piece of candy.
Qi Xuan took it and didn't eat it, he took the candy and hesitated for a while before asking, "Can I ask, this ...... What the hell is all this going on? ”
The mother-in-law's smile became even stronger when she heard this, she waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, don't worry, eat first, after eating, I will let Coco take you to see the truth of this world, and then you decide to stay, okay, my child?" ”
Qi Xuan thought about it, and could only nod and agree, after all, he was now a guest.
Especially when people were staring at them coldly from the moment they entered the house.
……
The big meal was really a big meal, when the table full of dishes was put on the table, Qi Xuan really had a big appetite, although he was still very restrained, but after all, he was really hungry, coupled with the enthusiasm of his uncle and mother-in-law, Qi Xuan was especially satisfied with this meal.
After the meal, the mother-in-law left a sentence: "Take him around, Coco." Then he departed in the company of the young man.
Qi Xuan sat in the room for a while, and only took Qi Xuan out after Coco helped the uncle finish washing the dishes and chopsticks and change his clothes.
The girl who took off her tactical equipment combed her long black hair into two playful ponytails, with a youthful and beautiful light blue short skirt and a white shirt, which made Qi Xuan lose his mind for a moment as soon as she appeared in front of Qi Xuan's eyes, but fortunately, Qi Xuan's heart only had Yu'er now, so she didn't feel much for this girl who was too young.
And as soon as he thought of Yu'er, Qi Xuan began to feel uneasy, why couldn't he get in touch with the core subject of his thinking? Is this part of the competition?
Follow Coco to the streets of the city on the levitation device, and as she walks down the street, Coco asks, "What do you want to know?" ”
Qi Xuan thought for a moment and asked, "Are all the people living here?" This question is actually problematic in itself, because Qi Xuan knows that this is virtual, so there is no so-called human being.
But in his eyes, Coco and these people should have been injected with the number order code of "personality tags", so in a sense, it's okay to ask like this.
However, Coco replied, "There are no human beings here, our ancestors abandoned the body many generations ago, and now we are only the number code of the human soul." ”
The answer of "uh......" was something that Qi Xuan couldn't imagine anyway, because it sounded like this, but these existences were more real.
However, Qi Xuan quickly corrected the misjudgment of "real", because "The Other Side: Tears of Dusk" has only been released for less than half a month, so Coco's historical cognition of ancestors and pre-era should also be some kind of "virtual" written form.
Thinking of this, Qi Xuan calmed down, he tried his best to respect the setting of the virtual world, and then continued to ask, "Then you and Hua are actually the same?" ”
After hearing this, Coco stopped, she turned around and looked at Qi Xuan seriously: "No, Hua is our enemy, they were born with us, but Hua wanted to destroy the order of this world from the beginning, and we are trying to maintain the order of this world, so we are different." ”
"Uh...... Okay......" Qi Xuan felt a little overhead about this complicated setting, but he also vaguely understood that Hua was indeed not necessarily a "good person" as he thought.
"So, do you know the purpose of my trip?" Thinking of Coco's words before, Qi Xuan felt that this was illogical.
"You know, you accepted Hua's mission, and destroyed the 73 Administrator Cores, expanding the advantage of our enemies." Everything Coco said was dangerous, but the tone was very flat, and it didn't seem to be convicting Qi Xuan, but just stating what Qi Xuan had done.
"Then why did you save me?" According to the usual logic, Qi Xuan should be classified as an enemy talent, but Coco saved him.
"Because the prophet needs you." Coco stopped in front of the crossroads of the street, and she looked at the busy crowd with a relieved smile.
"Prophet?"
"It's what Hua said about her mother." Coco walked on, and as she passed the monument at the crossroads, she raised her hand and gently brushed the pool under the monument, the sparkling blue of the stars rising up.
This magical scene was not attractive to Qi Xuan now, and he asked, "Then where is he?" Why did he say he needed me? ”
"Mother-in-law just had lunch with you, and now she should go to the Hall of True Knowledge, as for why? That's where you have to ask the cheater. Coco's words made Qi Xuan completely speechless.
It turned out that the mysterious prophet was the kind mother-in-law, no wonder Qi Xuan always felt so transparent when he came into contact with her, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was not right, what Hua said should be a core subject of thinking at present, but that mother-in-law gave Qi Xuan the feeling that was even more like a human being than Qi Xuan's perception of himself.
Is this the advantage of advanced number sequence code? Qi Xuan didn't quite understand.
And he didn't have time to think about it.
"Stop, stop, you're confusing me, shouldn't the answer I want be from the prophet, why is there another cheater? What is this setting? ”
Coco raised his hand and pointed to the distance and said, "You look there first." ”
Qi Xuan frowned and looked in the direction of Coco's point, only to see that in the middle of the dense city buildings, a huge humanoid machine was coming out of the shadows, just now Qi Xuan didn't notice the existence of this majestic shore at all, until Coco reminded him, Qi Xuan didn't find out. Then he saw the giant crouching down in a clearing, his hands wrapped in a bright light, and he pressed his hands to the ground, and a building rose from the ground in a matter of minutes.
As the building appeared, cheers came from afar.
"He's near the builder, and we're going to find him before he leaves."
As he spoke, Coco got into a mechanical car on the side of the street, which was a flying machine that resembled the Corina G7.
After Qi Xuan also sat down, Coco started the engine.
"Last question, where the hell is this?" Qi Xuan's definition of the real and the virtual became more and more blurred in his heart, especially the moment after seeing the builder appear, he began to wonder whether he was awake or still in the virtual game world.
Coco replied, "It depends on how you understand it, but for you and me now, this is the real world." ”
"Huh?! What do you say, ......" Qi Xuan was even more confused, but as the aircraft accelerated, his voice was quickly drowned out under the strong wind.
