Fanny was discharged from the hospital. Alva was also discharged from the hospital.

On a cool morning, we were preparing for our run, and Fanny and Alva arrived unexpectedly.

I excitedly stepped forward and hugged Fanny, "Why did you come out so soon?" Isn't it possible to be discharged from the hospital until next week? ”

"I was supposed to be discharged from the hospital next week, but Dr. Abel saw that I was doing well and gave me permission in advance." Fanny said affectionately.

"Great!" The two of us hugged each other again.

Although I didn't like Alva as a person, I politely shook her big hand and welcomed her back. Everyone also shook hands and hugged the two teammates who had returned from injury.

Originally, I was disappointed that I didn't do the simulation training today, but now that Fanny is back, this great joy has made me forget about what I was looking forward to.

Another week passed, and the third scenario was finally ready. Although the rest of the team has already participated in six scenario re-enactment trainings, this is only the third time for me. Before, I told Fanny about the reality of the immersive scene in her sleep, which aroused her envy and fascination. Now she's finally going to come with me. Fanny, like most people, didn't feel sick after taking one capsule, so this time I followed her example and swallowed only one pill. I didn't expect that after only a moment, I was already yawning. I quickly pulled Fanny and sat down in two adjacent seats.

In the blink of an eye, I entered the scene simulation in the dreamland, and then Fanny followed me to this dream scene. But today's bad luck didn't make it to the sea of colorful flowers, but went deep into a boundless desert as far as the eye can see.

The long yellow sand crept beneath us, like a soft silk wrapping around our steps. The sky is blue, the ground is yellow, everything is frozen in these two pigments, and there is no superfluous color entangled. Even the rolling hills in the distance are made of yellow sand. The yellow sand and the vast sky are intertwined, and no matter how good your eyesight is, you can't see the end of the desert.

I looked at the vast desert, the dead sea of sand, as if a deterrent earth commander stood before me, he always had a straight face, as if only this unusually hot yellow could reflect his majestic, quiet style. Even if the calm nature comes here, it does not forget to play a game, let the surging waves freeze in an instant, and never indulge in the flow again. Oh, O great desert, I love thee and hate thee!

Actually, I didn't walk very fast in the desert, but I was too tired to walk. I looked behind me to see how this could be, it was only a moment of effort, and Fanny had already fallen far away. The line, which had been very neat before, was now scattered, and only Allen, Quint, Bennet, and Bing were at the front, and I followed them closely, and finally did not fall far behind. We don't know where we're going, how much we've traveled, or how much we'll have to travel. Even so, our only team in the desert is still struggling to make its way.

I felt that the soles of my feet had been burned as if I was stepping on a red-hot brick, I was so thirsty that there was not even a little saliva in my mouth, my mouth was full of dry and bitter taste, my tongue was tightly attached to the roof of my mouth, and my throat seemed to be stuffed with dry firewood, thirst, I was so thirsty!! The uncomfortable feeling seemed to be eating away at our flesh little by little, and the hot sun hanging high above our heads was about to scorch us.

Just when we were hungry and thirsty, and our tongues were smoking, suddenly a small green lake appeared not far ahead, the lake was as calm as a polished silver platter, but when we looked closely, it felt more like a wrinkled silk. The sudden arrival of the lake made everyone ecstatic, and now even the most reserved girls did not care, and all burst out with the last bit of strength and ran frantically towards the shadowy lake.

But I was a little hesitant, how to say, I stared at this seemingly turquoise and clear lake, and the first feeling was that the surface of the water seemed to be too quiet, and it was a bit out of place in this pile of bare yellow sand. While I was hesitating, a few of the players who were running at the front slowly stopped, as if they had sensed that something was wrong. As expected, at first glance, the lake that seemed to be very real suddenly evaporated from the world, and at this time everyone suddenly realized that this beautiful lake was just an illusory mirage! At this time, everyone stopped in exhaustion, this illusory bubble that came and went had completely broken the last bit of psychological defense left in people's hearts, and they sat down on the sand mound, no longer having the strength to stand up.

At this time, I was still trembling on my legs, and although the crooked steps were like snail's steps, and although I did not know where to go next, the fear of death was always whipped at my heart. My heart is shouting loudly, fake, all fake, sleepwalking! But the body was not awakened by the low roar of gnashing teeth, but still passively rising and falling in the waves of death.

I stumbled to the ground, but I didn't feel any pain. My mouth was covered with mud and sand, but I didn't even have the strength to wipe it off. Looking down from the raised hills, the desert is long, endless, the yellow mountains rise and fall, everything is so silent, maybe this is the place where I will be resting?! As I sighed, I suddenly caught a glimpse of a small oasis in a small hidden area of land beneath the side of the hill. Isn't that also a kind of phantom?! I closed my eyes tightly, my throat bursting with an anxious gasp, my subconscious was rebelling, it was not fake, it was real water, it was a life-saving spring! We opened our eyes suddenly, took our breath, and then, with all our might, staggered to our feet, and stumbled toward the small oasis.

I ran to the green pool, where the crystal clear spring water was bubbling and shimmering like broken silver in the bright sun. Although I still couldn't believe what I saw with my eyes, the limit of my parched mouth had forced me to lose even the last shred of my sanity. I lay on my stomach by the spring, gulping down the water as if I had never drunk it in my life. The spring water that bubbles up from the ground is really sweet and moisturizing, refreshing! I drank heartily until my little belly swelled.

It wasn't until this moment that I was truly convinced that the spring was real. I rolled over and lay on my back on the edge of the green pool, looking up at the sky, and even the scorching sun seemed to restrain her arrogance. I had conceived that everyone had already rushed here and were drinking heartily, but in fact I didn't even hear the slightest human noise, and it was surprisingly quiet, except for two or three ravens chirping twice from time to time.

I quickly got up, and there was not even a single figure around. Could it be that no one but me has seen the water in this puddle?! I hurried towards the road I had come from, and after only a short run, I caught a glimpse of my teammates. Only three or five of them, including Allen, Quint and Doug, were still dying, and the rest had already passed out in the yellow sand in the distance.

All I wanted was to get my teammates out of the way, and I ran as fast as I could, trying to get to them as quickly as possible and pull them out of the water. But after only a few moments, I stopped, and I was surprised to find that my wild run didn't make any sense at all, because I was always walking in the same place.

An invisible net fell from the sky and was enveloping me, completely isolating me from the rest of my teammates. Inside the net, I enjoyed the light and smooth blue waves, but outside the net, the barren and withered yellow sand had forced everyone to wither like a broken flower and a willow. I was anxious and desperately trying to push open this large web of illusory abstraction, but the grotesque net was like a sticky piece of plasticine, no matter how hard I pushed it, it only changed its appearance with my body, sometimes stretching and sometimes retracting into place.

What's going on? What should I do? I sat on pins and needles, nervously thinking about it. Maybe it was too much of a fear, and I jumped out of my sleep. When I woke up, I looked around, and everyone was sitting and lying in their seats, their faces distorted as if they were not far from dying. Jessie was holding a large bell the size of her head, shaking it violently, and the shrill sound of the bell snapped through the stagnant air in the atrium. Amanda is also anxiously slapping some people's faces in an attempt to wake them up and make them abandon the nightmare that is threatening them. There are also two other classes of instructors who are also rushing to inject some weak team members with boosters to forcibly reverse these people's slow heartbeat through external forces.

I've never seen such a horrible sight before, and I've been frozen in fright, just staring at them dumbfounded. Time flies by minute by second, and the solemn atmosphere in the huge atrium is like a whirlpool in the water.

Suddenly Doug woke up with a shout of "ah", and then Allen, Gwent, Cedric and others also woke up one by one, and finally thankfully, all the team members were out of danger one by one.

Although everyone had already opened their eyes, there were still a few of them still in Cao Ying's heart, and some clues could be glimpsed from their confused and stiff eyes. Jessie put down the big bell in her hand, wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead, and then walked over to the other two tutors to comfort and guide the students who had not yet completely escaped from the nightmare.

Amanda walked over, his voice lowered, but he said "come out" to me very harshly, and walked straight out of the atrium.

My brain had not yet found the path of reality from the trance, and in the dark, I only habitually followed his guidance, followed him from a distance, and stepped out of the door of the atrium.

We came to a secluded corner, and as soon as we stood firm, Amanda threw her head at me with a sharp speech of rage.

"You're a madman! Despicable and shameless villain! Where are you going to take everyone?! Paradise?! On the surface, you are the last laggard to enter the scene of the simulation, but in fact, the real you have premeditated, that is, to gradually force everyone to Liangshan, and then die quickly, and the final outcome is that you are the only one living alone in this world. Do you think that only by doing this can you excel and take the glory and wealth for yourself?! In fact, it is a big mistake, your horrific behavior will only make you a prisoner, and the big people of the Fearless faction will make you crazy without realizing it, and in the end you will only disappear from people's sight miserably. You know, that's what really happens to you! ”

I don't understand what he meant, could it all be the result of my manipulation?! But I myself am also a victim, although in the end I was lucky to get the moon near the water, but before I was also smoking, dying and struggling! And even at the last moment, I never gave up on rescuing my teammates! Even though my heart was tormented, I was at a loss for words, and I didn't know where to start. This moment is a critical moment, but my mouth seems to be straightened, and I am completely disconnected from the confession of my heart.

Amanda is now a little more sensible, his voice has slowly receded, but the sharp eyes between his eyebrows are still looking at me motionlessly.

"Did you do it intentionally or unintentionally?!······ Maybe you can't say it yourself. But no matter what you do, you've already hit the bottom line. Before everyone comes to their senses, you can do it yourself. Maybe you have reined in your edge, not only saving everyone, but also saving yourself. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he strode in the direction of the central hall.

Looking at his distant back, I could only stand still. Although I pretended to be calm on the surface, I was actually crying inside. Even the person who thinks I am the closest in love is doubting me, is it really me, who has swayed everyone's nightmares and shackled everyone's hearts?!
