CHAPTER 40: PAUSE
"Is this the end of it?" Little Anthea stared at the surveillance screen inside the Statue of Liberty, she looked about the same age as Raven, but her tone was the same as that of an adult, revealing some helplessness about her short life.
Matt continued, "Those of us who have only completed a level below grade B are really not of much help. ”
The cat master didn't reply: "Obviously I just want to survive in the game, but they all come to meddle with our affairs." He sighed, "You also have a good consciousness, but ...... It's not a mortal situation yet. ”
Allen's fat man looked back angrily: "What the hell is going on with your super calm attitude from just now?!" Isn't it certain that a 2,700-acre piece of land fell from the sky?! ”
The cat master looked as usual: "No." ”
Alan almost choked to death by the cat master's words, but the next development of things really surprised everyone.
…………
Wang Xu slowly opened his eyes, and a headache hit. There were many complex instruments and devices in front of him, and Wang Xu only understood one button, which was written in scribbled Chinese - "Point me".
After ordering, the line of sight suddenly opened up, because Wang Xu was released from a coffin-like thing.
He stood up and looked around. This is Times Square in New York, but there are no pedestrians in the square, but dozens of "coffins" exactly like his feet.
Vincent and Woody were sitting directly below the big screen in the plaza playing chess, still playing Beast Chess......
At this point, Woody laughed out loud and said, "Hey, hey, hey...... Very good judgment. ”
"Of course." The cat master replied.
Wang Xu was shocked when he heard this, he suddenly turned around and found that the cat master was sitting on a coffin not far from him playing NDS with Erlang's legs crossed.
"Hey...... What's going on? Wang Xu asked.
It was not the cat master who answered him, but Liyadi's voice: "He just woke up early." ”
Wang Xu looked to the other side, and Li Yadi was the same, sitting there playing with the handheld.
"Can anyone explain ......"
Mao Ye put down the NDS in his hand: "The beginning of everything should be that sentence." He pointed to Vincent, who was smiling, "'Whoever dares to interrupt me again, I'll tear his soul to pieces, grind it into powder, add it to a hemp cookie, and throw it into the boys' dorm room at the community college.'" ’”
Riadi continued with him: "From the beginning of Vincent's explanation, we were hypnotized, and as ordinary people who did not have any superpowers at that time, the hypnosis of the devils was very difficult to detect. So, we looked at the big screen and before we knew it, we fell into a deep sleep. ”
The cat master continued: "It's not accurate to say that it is sleeping, but it is actually lying in the game cabin to play. ”
Only then did Wang Xu understand that he was lying in something just now.
"Look at the big screen again." The cat raised his head and gestured with his eyes.
Wang Xu followed his gaze and looked up, and found that the picture on the big screen at this time was the street of Queens where he was a moment ago, with the cosmic mecha standing in the middle of the camera, raising his hands high, the sky was obscured by a piece of land, and the remnants of the Lady Liberty robot were on the right side of the camera.
And at the moment the picture is still, and there is a word flashing on it, pause.
Vincent said, "We paused the game and woke you up to start the final showdown. As he spoke, another game cabin was opened, and it was the fat Allen who came out, he didn't look confused like Wang Xu, but just observed the surrounding situation, and then came to a few national scoldings, and finally asked Liardi: "Why don't you wake me up?" ”
"The people outside the cabin can't have any effect on you." He spread his hands.
"Alright, four, come here now." Vincent said.
After all four of them walked towards him, he cleared his throat and spoke again, "I need to explain the situation in detail to satisfy the doubts of some of you and correct the misinterpretations and misjudgments of others. ”
"Hey, hey, hey...... That is to say, to satisfy Wang Xu's doubts and correct the judgments of others. Woody made a very annoying add-on, but annoying him would give him a sense of pleasure, so no one could stop him......
Vincent said: "Due to the shortage of resources, this game does not have enough budget to support the construction of an entire mirror city, and there are not so many demon spirits to act as monsters, you should understand that it has been a difficult job to get sponsorship from Purgatory. Uh-huh...... All in all, we have found a low-cost solution that uses a world built on the consciousness of you gamers as a stage. ”
Wang Xu looked at it with a humble eye: "Why does it sound so familiar......
Vincent smiled, "Huh...... We did borrow the same techniques that your junior used in the past, but this time the world built by the four of us from hell has a new world view and scientific civilization system, don't you think it's much more interesting than simply returning to a certain era? ”
"Ah...... Is that...... What an enjoyable gaming experience it is to be chased by the monsters of the original deformed world for more than ten hours in a row......" Wang Xu said as he gave each of the two demons a middle finger.
Vincent smiled awkwardly and changed the subject: "We have set up the Penrose Steps in Times Square and its surroundings, and we can still gain control of this place." So you start the sword hunt in the game pod, and we can update some game details in real time on the big screen, or through this ......" He also took out a handheld-like thing: "Use this thing to build your own image in the game, control it from a third-person perspective and create some intervention." Of course, we use an administrator account that is similar to yours. ”
Woody laughed lewdly: "Hey, hey, hey...... Now let's talk about the unexpected, that is...... Someone woke up on their own, and there was more than one. The white light on the lenses of his glasses couldn't stop the malicious eyes from shooting at the cat master.
Liadi snorted coldly: "I just woke up not long ago, and there is nothing to boast about." It's really too hard to be like the human consciousness that acts as a battery in The Matrix awakens on its own. He paused and glanced at the cat master: "And there is someone here who can wake up earlier than me...... The only possibility I can think of is that this person has been through a similar situation before. ”
The cat master stared at the sky with dead fish eyes: "It's obviously because you're stupid......"
Wang Xu didn't bother to pay attention to these two people, he asked, "How can the people who woke up continue to play?" ”
"It's simple, give him the same NDS as we have, and keep playing." Vincent replied, "It's just that the person who wakes up can play the game with a clearer mind and perspective." ”
Alan suddenly realized: "No wonder that guy can call out the name 'Cosmic Mecha' as soon as he opens his mouth, and roughly knows its abilities. ”
The cat's dead fish eyes were still staring at the sky: "I still know the orthodox method of Santa Claus's invasion of the chimney, waste." ”
Alan rushed over and grabbed the collar of the cat master: "You are very arrogant!" Do you know anything else?! ”
Mao Ye sneered: "I only have one look at it, and I know that you have been the kind of person who has tried to escape from the weight loss summer camp since you were a child." ”
"I didn't have that experience!"
"Hmph...... I think it must have been because I was too fat, and I was finally found stuck in the barbed wire. ”
Alan was annoyed: "I want to save an injured squirrel!" ”
"No...... You'll definitely want to eat it......"
Alan screamed, fell to his knees, and spurted out a mouthful of blood: "You...... How do you know......"
Wang Xu covered his face with his hands and shook his head: "I said he was a half-immortal......
Vincent cleared his throat and stopped the gang of guys' nonsense, "Alright, kids, there's one more thing. He pointed to the big screen behind him: "The cosmic mecha is already the strongest monster, if no one breaks it, except for the ...... who has woken up All four of you, and everyone else, will die in the game one after another. ”
Wang Xu seemed to want to say something, but was directly interrupted by Vincent: "You don't have to tell me, you want to go back and fight with it or something, I can tell you clearly, with your current conditions, you can't destroy it." ”
“yeah!” Woody made a triumphant gesture at them.
"You're a hairy!" Wang Xu shouted.
Vincent shrugged: "From the Evolution Mecha to the Cosmic Mecha, the basic concepts are all designed by him, and if he wants liquid, you can't do it......
So what, in short, at this stage, the cat master still made a more critical and correct inference, he knows that if one condition is met, we will interrupt the game. ”
Riyadi's evil smile returned to his face: "Is it the final decision on the decisive battle place......"
Vincent said: "That's right, it's just seeing through this that someone will always have a fearless attitude." Fire, Earth, Water, the S-level levels of the three worlds have been completed, and with the destruction of the land of the air world, the teleportation mechanism cannot function properly, and the last full number of places that can enter the decisive battle is gone.
The non-exhaustive quota provided in those A-level levels, at present, is only Riadi who can make up a complete set, and none of the other players who have won A-level rewards in a single group have tried to enter the A-level level for the second time.
Therefore, at this moment, Wang Xu and Mao Ye, Li Yadi and Allen, you have become the only two groups of players who are qualified for the finals. ”
Woody's weird laugh again: "Hey, hey, hey...... To put it simply, the ultimate winner is the one who takes your jackpot, restarts the suspended game, and goes back to defeat the Cosmic Mecha and rescue all the other players, otherwise their bodies will die in the game along with their consciousness. ”
Riadi sneered, "Do you think I care if those people live or die? ”
Before the devils could speak, Wang Xu suddenly said in a tone that was even colder than Liyadi: "But you care very much about winning or losing." ”
"Oh?" Liadi met Wang Xu's gaze.
Wang Xu continued: "Your enthusiasm for being a winner has gone beyond respect for life, don't talk about others, even if it's your own life, I'm afraid it doesn't matter." ”
"Hahahaha...... "Well-said, only you know me, in your Chinese's words, confidant." ”
Wang Xu also smiled: "But I don't agree with your opinion. ”
