Chapter 12: Conjecture
Hearing the other party ask the word task, Gao Wuxian's pupils shrank.
He was only covered in blood, and there was another person behind him on the opposite side, so if he directly picked out the content of the task now.
He was faced with a dangerous situation.
Just as Gao Wuxiao was thinking about whether he should answer truthfully, he suddenly remembered the sound of running downstairs.
Gao Wuxian's heart tightened, and he gestured to silence.
In front of him, Gao Wuxiao, who was standing behind Xu Jiaming, also heard the sound downstairs.
Seeing himself gesturing in front of him, his face immediately sank, and the fingers hanging down his side tapped.
A gunshot exploded, and Gao Wuxian, in disbelief, collapsed with his chest covered, gurgling blood spilling from his mouth and nose.
Killing himself again, Gao Wuxiao no longer has special psychological fluctuations.
His mission had already forced him to embark on the path of self-slaughter, and Chen Youningting's death also made him realize everything.
This is the Secret Realm, and completing the task is the first goal, and dead people are just a normal thing.
Turning back and walking towards the stairs, Gao Wuxuan raised his wrist and his eyes fell on the watch screen.
The bright red blood stains writhed and turned into a string of words.
This quest is as follows:
1. Kill all the eaters in the tower except yourself
(Current number of eaters: 10)
After completing the task, you can return immediately, and if you give up, you can stay in the tower for a day.
Noticing the reduction of the number, Gao Wuxiao sighed quietly, and behind him, Xu Jiaming, who was pale and had dull eyes, took out a pistol from the corpse and followed closely.
Bang –
On the other side, Gao Wuxiao in the corridor had not yet spoken, and a gunshot interrupted his words.
Xu Jiaming, who had long been a frightened bird, turned around in fright by the gunshot, and the muzzle of the gun was aimed at the top of the stairs in an instant.
From the sound of his rapid breathing, it was not difficult to hear how excited he was at the moment.
Gao Wuxian naturally heard this familiar gunshot, and he was not surprised by this gunshot.
The two people who met upstairs obviously had an argument, and the person who would shoot was obviously in a state of illness, which was normal.
patted Xu Jiaming on the shoulder, saw that he was slightly appeased, and after lowering the muzzle of the gun, Gao Wuxuan continued: "Just like I said just now." ”
"It's true that we met upstairs, but it's not us."
"If you have to say anything, you can see them as copies of us."
"Fork?" Ning Ting, who was quietly listening to Gao Wuxiao's words, couldn't help but ask, "So they are clones?" Are they all fake? ”
Regarding Ning Ting's question, Gao Wuxuan shook his head and said, "No, they are all true. ”
"It's just a conjecture of mine, do you know the parallel universe theory?"
The key words that came out of Gao Wuxian's mouth surprised the three of them, and Chen You, who had been unknown for a long time, said with an ugly face: "In other words, do you think they are us in the parallel world?" ”
"But how is that possible? The theory of parallel universes has never been proven in practice in modern scientific systems. ”
"As you say." Gao Wuxian tapped his jaw and continued, "It hasn't been falsified either." ”
After Gao Wuxian finished saying this, he stretched out the eater and pointed to his eyes.
"The existence of the solar system is beyond doubt and has been confirmed by observation, but the existence of parallel universes has not yet existed because they cannot be observed."
"But now, we may be the observers and the experiencers."
Xu Jiaming, who listened to Gao Wuxian's fallacy, was confused.
The weak trust that had been built up along the way collapsed at this moment, and it was only then that Xu Jiaming remembered that Gao Wuxian had given him the impression of a manic psychopath at the beginning.
But now it seems that in addition to suffering from mania, Gao Wuxian also suffers from paranoia.
His lips twitched, Xu Jiaming's big face squeezed into a chrysanthemum, and he followed Gao Wuxian's logic and said, "So, do you think that we are now in a time and space where parallel spaces converge. ”
"That's why we're meeting beings who are the same as us?"
Xu Jiaming's voice fell, Gao Wuxuan nodded lightly, and then added in a serious voice: "You are right, this may be the operating principle of the Trick Building." ”
"As long as countless parallel spaces can be stitched together, there will be countless living people in the tower."
"But." After this sentence, Chen You was puzzled: "Why does the strange building have so many living people, and what can this bring to it?" ”
Gao Wuxiao shook his head, how could he know that this kind of question was just an ordinary person?
"Although I approve of your idea...... Xu Jiaming, who had a dry voice, raised his wrist to show the watch screen, and said with a bitter face: "But task two has not been completed." ”
"You're probably in trouble."
Hearing the sound of Gao unharmed, he looked at the watch screen, and the content of task 2 had indeed not changed.
Regarding this situation, Gao Wuxian gritted his teeth lightly, and his face covered under the tar was a little anxious.
This is already the speculation he can think of, which is most in line with the current situation, so what secrets is hidden in this strange building.
For a while, Gao Wuxuan was a little confused.
"Wait......" Compared with ordinary people, Ning Ting was slightly more sensitive to emotions, and after noticing that the three of them were a little low, she whispered: "Maybe you didn't look carefully, in fact, as long as we complete the task, we can go back." ”
Ning Ting, who tried to save everyone's emotions, didn't know that her words pushed everyone to another abyss.
"Yes, we just need to survive until dawn, mission two doesn't really matter......
Xu Jiaming was extremely excited, but seeing that Ning Ting and Chen You's expressions were wrong, the tone that was still rising at the beginning fell to the end.
Gao Wuxian's face was covered with tar, and his expression Xu Jiaming naturally couldn't tell it, but he himself understood that his expression must not be good-looking now.
"I'm asking you a question."
As he spoke, Gao Wuxuan took out his phone and lit up the screen.
Under the signal bar outside the area, there is a number marked with the time.
The cold numbers were reflected in the pupils, and the expression covered by the tar gradually lost control.
But fortunately, his face is now covered with a layer of tar, otherwise Xu Jiaming and the others will think that he is sick again.
"How long do you think we've been in the building?"
Gao Wuxian didn't look up, he was still staring at the phone screen, but his voice was a little lower and stuck with the sound of tar flowing, like some kind of monster roaring.
Hearing this, Xu Jiaming and the three looked at each other, and then reported the numbers one by one.
"More than an hour."
"An hour and twenty minutes?"
"It should be almost two hours, right?"
The three answers are Ning Ting, Chen You, and Xu Jiaming.
In their opinion, it must have been an hour since 404 came out.
But then Gao Wuxian flipped the phone screen, and the cold words also came into their eyes.
18:00
Time has not flowed.
So how do you live until dawn?
