The world is a magical and mysterious place. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It is said to be magical because it has many places that resemble the earth where Lu Ming is located, to be exact, it is more like a copy of the earth. Whether it's the environment, the species, or the history of the world as a whole, there is a striking resemblance to the earth. Even most countries, cities, politicians, celebrities, brands are exactly the same. Sometimes Lu Ming even has an illusion that he is still on the earth, but maybe he has lost his memory and forgotten something, so he will have this familiar and unfamiliar feeling.

However, the mystery of the strange world completely shattered his illusions and made him gradually recognize reality. There is something called "Juggernaut" in the world of treachery, and no one has ever seen it or known what it is. However, every once in a while, it would issue missions to earthlings like Lu Ming who came here, asking them to find a place around the world collectively known as the "Strange World", and asked to enter there to complete some tasks before they could return to the Strange World.

The places where the quests and realms issued by the Juggernaut are only visible and found by those who accept them, and the natives of the realm are ignorant of them, or there is an invisible force in the underworld that prevents them from knowing these things. Once the task is released, the person who accepts the task must follow the rules of the task, and if they do not follow the rules, they will be punished or even erased by the mastermind. In addition, the realm is also full of all kinds of dangers and murderous opportunities, and those who carry out the mission can die if they are not careful. However, there are also various "harvests" in the realm, "harvests" that cannot be obtained on Earth in any way.

Finally, and Lu Ming thinks the most important one, if you can successfully pass through the ten tricks, you will find hope to return to Earth.

The above are all told to him by the woman in red after Lu Ming woke up, in the words of the woman in red, if every earthling who comes here wants to live a better life here, or if they want to live here, they must remember and understand the above things, keep in mind the rules of the strange world, and regard the master as their own "god"!

"It's such a shitty place, it's all that damn stinking bitch!"

Next to the convenience store, Lu Ming finished his last cigarette and slammed the cigarette butt on the ground. The stinky bitch in her mouth is naturally the woman in red who deceived him and "kindly" told him the rules of this world. And now, it has been almost a year since Lu Ming came to the Strange World, and as the first batch of people to come here, he and some other companions have already experienced a test of the Strange World, completed the tasks inside and retreated. However, that journey to the treacherous realm also made Lu Ming see someone die in front of him for the first time, experienced horror and despair for the first time, and changed his personality for the first time.

That time, they went to a total of nine people, and only four came back alive.

In the days after returning, Lu Ming has been unable to sleep and eat, because everything that happened seems so real and cruel, from an ordinary and stable life to a day of constant death threats, he seems dazed and helpless. Until a slap in the face, a woman, and a word brought him to his senses.

"Lu Ming, didn't I save you to let you live like this, can't you cheer up and persevere? It only takes ten tricks to find a way back to Earth, don't you want to see your wife and children? ”

Luo Shuiqing, a woman who is destined to cut and mess with him, is also a woman who changed his life.

"Hum-buzz-buzz-" There was a vibration of two short and one long from the watch on his arm, which was someone calling Lu Ming back to the gathering place. This multi-functional watch was ordered by Luo Shuiqing for all the survivors after experiencing the first "strange world". To put it simply, in addition to the functions of general wilderness adventures, it can also customize shortcuts, which can quickly convey different signals to teammates through the different vibration frequencies of the watch after determining different code words. This is also a manifestation of this woman's delicate mind, first of all, the watch is small in size, easy to carry, not easy to fall off after wearing, and can adapt to various environments. Secondly, the mastery of time is crucial to the completion of each task, and the high precision of time control also helps to improve the tacit understanding of the whole team. The reason why I chose to send a code signal through vibration rather than other means is not only because the vibration can be found at the first time compared to words, but also because compared to the bell and lights, the sense of vibration is more difficult for the outside world to detect, after all, no one knows what the future "strange world" will be, maybe a little sound and light will bring tragedy.

Casually hailed a car on the side of the street, Lu Ming came to a luxurious villa complex in the suburbs. This is the gathering point of all the surviving earthlings, and it is obviously a bit ironic to say that it is all earthlings, because after passing the last mission of "Strange Realm", there are only five of them left, four survivors who escaped from "Strange Realm", and one lucky person who was not selected by the master to find "Strange Realm". However, after Lu Ming walked into the hall of the clubhouse in the villa complex, he knew that maybe this situation was about to change, because he saw the "woman in red" who made him grit his teeth in his dreams, and the five strangers standing behind her.

"Hee-hee-hee, little fool, you have changed a lot, you were scared to death when you first saw me, why do you see me with this expression now? Did you miss me? Hee-hee-hee," the woman in red laughed.

Lu Ming ignored him, but looked around, on the sofa on the left side of the hall sat a man and a woman, the man looked almost fifty years old, wearing a set of neat brand-name suits, a pair of clean white sneakers on his feet, cocking Erlang's legs there to swallow clouds and spitting fog, and from time to time he also used his hand with a gem ring to sort out his oily three-seven hairstyle, living like a township entrepreneur. The woman sitting not far from him wore a dark purple scarf on her head, covering half of her face, but judging from the other half of her face exposed, she was definitely a beauty with a good appearance, and after seeing Lu Ming come in, she stood up and poured a glass of water from the water dispenser next to her and handed it to Lu Ming.

"Sister Shuiqing, we've been here for a while, and we haven't seen you pour us a glass of water, after this fool comes in, you can't wait, are you going to be his wife?" The woman in red laughed.

That's right, this woman is Luo Shuiqing, the only woman among the previous survivors. After hearing the word "wife", her eyes fluttered slightly, but soon dimmed again, and sat back in place without saying a word.

The woman in red was bored with herself, but she didn't care at all. Instead, he asked a tall man on the right side of the hall, "What about the college student?" What do you do in your room all day? Lu Ming, a fool, is here, and he is still grinding! ”

The tall man replied: "Sister Hong, Gao Yu may still be reading in the room, he is just a hobby, I just called him, he may be fascinated again, I'll call again." ”

"Hmph, as long as your mouth is sweet, just look at it for your sister's sake, it's much better than some people who don't know how to be polite." Saying that, he glanced at Lu Ming again, "It doesn't matter if he comes or not, I'll just tell you directly, the five people behind me must have guessed that they were all brought from the earth by me, I have already told them the simple rules, and the rest depends on you." Also, I've received word that the next 'Strange Realm' will be open soon, so get ready. ”

"Hehehe, little fool, I hope you won't be as useless as last time, I look forward to the next time we have a chance to meet, hehehehe" The woman in red turned her head and said a few words to Lu Ming, and then disappeared again.

The disappearance of the woman made the nine people present suddenly embarrassed, and they became a little cold for a while. At this time, the tall man first said to the five people: "Hello, my name is Meng Da, Wu Mengda's Meng, Wu Mengda's Da, it turned out to be a national second-level athlete, it can be regarded as a step ahead of you to come here, I think you all know the current situation, and everyone will be regarded as a united front in the future, why don't we all introduce ourselves first?" ”

"Old ghost, why don't you say a few words too?"

Although Meng Da was enthusiastic, he was obviously not good at this kind of official words, so he turned his head to the township entrepreneur on the sofa and said. Immediately, the township entrepreneur snuffed out the cigarette in his hand, straightened his oily head with a few fingers, and said with a thick Shaanxi accent: "Hungry (I) call Wang Fustick (expensive), mud (you) just call hungry (me) old ghost, welcome everyone, warmly welcome."

Perhaps it was Meng Da's cold humor and the old ghost's inexplicable joyful accent that brought everyone a hint of relaxation. Finally one of the five responded, "You ... That one... Is that woman telling the truth? Isn't this the original Earth? Do you really want to go to that place called 'Strange Realm'? Is it us? Will you die? A thin young man with a trembling expression asked incoherently.

However, Meng Da obviously understood what he meant, and after thinking about it, he continued: "Maybe there are still some of you who don't believe it, maybe you think everything is a scam, it's all a dream. But I want to tell you that all this is true, because I, the old ghost, Lu Ming, and Shui Qing all came out of this cruel and real situation, and I didn't want to tell you, but... Hey, anyway, we went there last time with a total of nine people, and in the end there were only four of us. As for who will go each time, to be honest, we don't know, only the moment the master releases the task, it is clear, it may be us, or there may be newcomers like you. ”

As soon as the words fell, the five people on the opposite side seemed a little flustered. One of the big-bellied middle-aged men exclaimed, "How can this be! Why don't you run? Why didn't you go to the police? Why not get out of here? ”

At this time, Lu Ming, who had been silent, took over and said, "Run? Alarm? Get out of here? You think we really haven't tried? This is not the Earth! When the police heard about this, their first reaction was to kick us out as if they had been brainwashed, and pointed guns at us, saying that they would kill us if we came again. And the people who fled here and refused to carry out the mission are already dead, we said that we went to nine people, in fact, there was a guy who gave up the mission halfway and ran away, and did not enter the 'Strange Realm' with us, and we came back to know that he was dead the day after we entered the 'Strange Realm'. What's even more ironic is that the whole city news reported his death that day, and the cause of his death was that he fell asleep on a road under construction, and then was crushed into a meatloaf by a passing roller. How do you say to run? How can this power be opposed? ”

"Moreover, what I want to tell you is this" Lu Ming suddenly became extremely serious and said sharply, "Although I hate the woman in red very much, you must remember every word she says, this is the guarantee for you to live here." Also, you have to remember that the tasks issued by the Juggernaut and the rules set by the Juggernaut must not be thought of destroying, but make full use of the rules to keep yourself alive, because we are all too small to fight against this power. Okay, let's all go to sleep, I know you won't be able to accept it for a while, but this is the reality, let's talk about it tomorrow," he said, turning around and walking towards the door of the clubhouse.

"Is there really no other way? How so? The pot-bellied middle-aged man lost his voice.

"How? Maybe there is, maybe after the tenth 'Strange Realm', we can see hope. However, this time Lu Ming's voice was so small that even he couldn't hear it.
