After Hoshikawa Aoi fired a magic bullet into the sky, prompting the change of the line.

Li Wu watched as the huge black font and the number 1-1 appeared above, and then saw the hexagonal shape that had morphed into a vertical hexagon, and something marked [boss] on the top spit out an object that was difficult to describe in words from the bottom.

Just like the inferior pixel pattern that originally existed only in the virtual world has appeared in reality, the border is constructed from a rough line segment, and the overall appearance resembles a triangular plane.

It fell towards the location of the Hoshikawa, as if it had been shelled in return.

However, the speed of the "cannonball" is not fast, and it is about the same as the flight of the lead ball launched by ordinary people.

With Magical Girl's abilities, avoiding or flying it shouldn't be harder than pinching bubble wrap.

However, from Li Wu's point of view, Xingchuan seemed to be completely unaware of the existence of the attack, and he still had the leisure to talk to him.

"Get out of the way!"

It's not clear what will happen if you get touched, but it's safer to avoid the unknown.

The magical girl jumps backwards in confusion, and the pixel ammunition silently touches where she was standing, where the ground flickers like an NPC destroyed in an old-fashioned game, and then disappears.

"Invisible Attack...... Li Wu, something has fallen over there! ”

As early as when she first called out her name, Li Wu had already stepped sideways to another square.

The same phenomenon is happening again.

"We can only see the attacks being fired at the other side, not at ourselves - be careful, here we go again!"

Hoshikawa dodged another invisible attack and asked, "So we're in that weird game now—to the right!" ”

"The content of Polybius's game in urban legends is similar to "Thunderbolt", which is nothing more than the game of manipulating a small plane to fight enemy planes, Hoshikawa, and shoot a magic bullet directly above."

She did as she was told, and the pure white magic bullet collided with something invisible two or three meters above, and there was a twisted fluctuation.

Then a gold coin burst out.

It's still a texture-like shape that's extremely low-quality, but the yellow-orange-orange round look is very reminiscent of the currency icons of old games, standing upright and slowly rotating on the ground.

Then the two exchanged commands, and Li Wu bombarded the "enemy plane" on his side with a fireball.

"There are two gold coins, can I use them to buy items or bombs?"

"Actually, it's more likely to eat and increase your score, no, that's not the point, Hoshikawa, have you ever played chess?"

There are no new attacks for the time being, and it is not known if it is halftime.

"Only to the extent that I've heard the rules."

"That's enough, I don't think the offensive will stop there, in order to be more efficient, I use chess to indicate the position. There is also a special grid for the player to draw on the ground, which is quite fair in a sense. ”

When the two reached an agreement, the text appeared in the sky again:

1-2

The plane of the triangle came again, but this time the speed increased significantly, and there was even a steering maneuver when they were about to get close to the two of them.

"Attack above the B6 grid."

"Okay! Li Wu's side is C2 grid. ”

With the cooperation of the team, they quickly eliminated their respective opponents.

In the interval this time, the two of them used their own means to release a long-range attack on the hexagonal body in the air, but both the fireball and the magic bullet passed through the body, as if they had hit a non-existent image.

After that, they went through several rounds of this process, and when the text of 3-2 emerged, the two of them were already facing an attack that could be called a barrage.

The hexagons in the sky spewed out triangular shapes almost non-stop, falling towards the ground at various tricky angles, now almost as fast as a baseball thrown by an amateur pitcher.

It would not be difficult for the two of them to dodge projectiles of this level, but in the absence of useful skills such as telepathy and telepathy, the limitations of verbal communication greatly limited their time to react to attacks that they were completely unaware of, and there had even been several dangerous situations.

While the ground had become full of holes, there had been a lot of gold coins from the break.

"It's not the way to be beaten passively."

If you think about it with the idea of solving the game level, the first line of text should be a hint of thought.

[Awaken the end before the beginning and the end disappear into nothingness]

If you want to extract the main point, figuring out what the "beginning", "end" and "end" refer to should be the key to breaking the game.

Another round of gaps ended, this time in addition to the triangular plane, there was a more winding, snake-like line, except for blasting it in the air, it was difficult to break it when it was close.

Li Wu had already experienced the difficulty of this new enemy, and he thought he had successfully dodged under Xingchuan's report, but then he heard her exclamation, and in time to squat down in time to dodge the line monster that swept abruptly under Xingchuan's perspective.

Next to him happened to be an Arcade machine of Polybius, which collapsed and dissipated with black and white snowflakes flashing under the flying wreak.

It's like returning to nothingness.

"Whew...... It's so troublesome, I really want to open this room with all my might, and I'll try it next time I rest. ”

The magical girl's tone had become irritable.

"Hoshikawa, do you remember the strange talk that the boss said?"

Taking advantage of this gap, Li Wu asked.

"Well, the ten-dollar arcade store that opened in 1981 closed down after six years of operation, and finally its owner committed suicide, and then left the legend of the supernatural arcade store to the present."

"So 1981 can be seen as the beginning of this store?"

"Did Li Wu think of something?"

Li Wu nodded: "In the story of Polybius, that game also appeared in 1981. ”

He looked at the black arcade machine, and then turned his gaze to another type of red machine: "If you think of it as the beginning, then the end ......"

"It was the year when the arcade shop owner committed suicide!" Aoi Hoshikawa showed an expression of sudden realization.

"yes, but I haven't figured out how that relates to another arcade yet."

"Doesn't Li Wu know?" Hoshikawa's voice became excited, "1987 is the year Street Fighter 1 was released. ”

Li Wu understood in an instant: "So the game released in the year when the owner committed suicide and died refers to the 'end'. ”

"Before the beginning and the end disappear into nothingness, the translation of human words means before these two types of arcades are wiped out by stray bullets."

He bent down and picked up a gold coin that was spinning upright on the ground: "As for the thing that awakens the end......"

The words in the sky are refreshed again, and a new round of invisible and qualitative attacks is about to fall.

While destroying enemies with the help of Hoshikawa, Li Wu dodged to an intact Street Fighter 1 arcade machine.

He put the gold coins into the slot.
