Chapter 70: Life and ...... No Solution (2)
Not in the original world?
If Wudao Town is really no longer in their original world, then Dong Xie will really not be surprised at all. Based on his understanding of the blood letter task in the apartment, any resident who has performed the blood letter task more than five times may go to another space to perform the blood letter task from the sixth time.
This is why, starting from the sixth Scarlet Quest, residents will have the privilege of teleporting back to the apartment with a single thought after the Scarlet Quest time ends. Because, in those alien spaces, humans cannot leave through physical means, so they must have the ability to teleport back to the apartment before they can return to the apartment.
And this time Goto Town is the last blood word mission of the year, and it is the blood word mission affected by the demon king, and it is the blood word mission that releases the last Hell Contract fragment! If you want to say how special this task is, I'm afraid that except for the Demon King-level Blood Word Quest and the Tenth Blood Character Quest, I'm afraid there is no other Blood Word Quest that can be compared to this one.
Therefore, if the entire Wudao Town is actually in a different space, then Dong Xie will not be surprised. What's more, he also saw the comic drawn by the ghost cartoonist in a nightmare, and if the content in that comic is completely mapped to the real world, that is, the plot in the comic will happen in the real world, then it can explain all this even more. Because in that comic, in the end, Goto Town was also completely isolated from the outside world, and no matter what method was used, everyone couldn't escape from this town. Eventually, the town will be swallowed up by the maelstrom. All people will die, and no one will escape this fate.
And all this...... It's all the plot of the comics drawn by that ghost cartoonist......
Caricaturist...... Caricature......
Caricature?!
Suddenly, there was a thunderclap in Dong Xie's mind, and he suddenly understood what Hideki Saito was going to say next!
Could it be ...... Could it be ......
"I doubt it...... We are actually in a comic world. ”
Hideki Saito finally spoke slowly, his most desperate guess......
"You...... You say we...... We're in a comic world?! How is this possible! Wang Qiu was dumbfounded, frightened by Saito Hideki's speculation, if they were all in the world of comics, then wouldn't their life and death be under the control of others?
No, it should be said...... Is it really controlled by other "people"?
Wang Qiu is also a senior resident who has survived five blood character tasks, and he immediately thought of the key, any previous blood character mission, its key, its impact, and its root cause...... All of them are paranormal phenomena. It's something like ghost curses.
If Hideki Saito's guess is correct, and they all fall into a manga now, then it is very likely that this is a manga cursed by ghosts, or ...... They're in the middle of a comic drawn by a ghost cartoonist!
And when it comes to ghost cartoonists......
Wang Qiu set a complicated gaze on Dong Xie...... The night before entering Wudao Town, Dong Xie's nightmare!
Hideki Saito also set his eyes on Dong Xie at this time, and seeing the look on Dong Xie's face, Hideki Saito understood that Dong Xie had already figured this out.
So, Hideki Saito nodded and said, "All this is mainly because of Mr. Dong's nightmare the night before you entered Goto Town...... Although it seems to be just a simple nightmare, it has no effect on us. But I still remembered, and I have been thinking and analyzing repeatedly, what this nightmare really represented. ”
"Mr. Dong......" Hideki Saito asked, "Do you remember what you said to me before?" ”
"Huh? What words? Dong Xie couldn't keep up with Hideki Saito's leaping thinking, so he could only ask stupidly.
Hideki Saito said, "That was when I first entered the apartment, and you specially taught me and Makoto a lot of experience in surviving in the apartment, as well as various knowledge of performing blood letters. Thank you so much ......"
After speaking, Hideki Saito nodded at Dong Xie.
"Uh, that's nothing...... You're welcome. Dong Xie touched his head a little embarrassed.
Hideki Saito shook his head and said, "That's all valuable experience and knowledge, and I will always remember this gratitude." And what I'm going to say now is that you told me that in the apartment Scarlet quest, sometimes, the Scarlet quest will give the occupants some hints at the beginning of the execution. You also used as an example the first volume of horror you wrote about the horror set in the apartment, the village of the water. You said that although the Youshui Village was made up by yourself, it was also adapted from a previous Blood Letter mission. At the beginning of that Scarlet Quest, the apartment specifically reminded to stay away from Ah Xiu and Shui, which was a hint of the way to live...... At the same time, this hint sometimes appears in other Scarlet quests. ”
Dong Xie was a little embarrassed to be said, and he said, "So you still remember it...... This time, though, the nightmare I had...... It doesn't look like a hint of life. Moreover, this time the difficulty of the blood letter task is so high. I don't think the apartment would be kind enough to give such obvious hints of how to live. ”
Hideki Saito nodded and said, "That's true...... I don't think that's a hint either. On the contrary, I feel ...... That could be a hint of a dead end. ”
"Dead end tips?" Dong Xie and they are all stunned, what is the reminder of a dead end?
Hideki Saito smiled bitterly: "Because, I personally think, if my guess is not wrong." The hint of that nightmare is that if we get into Goto Town, or if we are pulled into the manga drawn by that ghost manga artist, we will never get out alive. Because, every move we make, including everything in this town, is under the control of that ghost cartoonist. Maybe it can even control the time. After all, no matter how much time we spend in comics, there is nothing to do with the real passage of time in the real world. ”
"Therefore ......"
At this time, Saito Hideki was also trembling a little, and his tone trembled slightly: "Therefore...... I can only draw one conclusion...... This time, the Blood Word Quest is likely to be a bloodless quest with no way out! Even if we want to stay up until the end of the time and return to the apartment, at least, I don't have any way now, I can't think of any way out......"
"This time ......"
"There's a good chance we're all going to die here...... No one was spared! ”
