Humanoid Machines [Unlimited] v. 19

He gritted his teeth slightly, and slashed out several wounds of different depths and very messy with the scalpel, and blood quickly gushed out from the staggered edges. Even if it is against the enemy, I am afraid it is not so ruthless.

Yuan Xuxue didn't feel pain, and her breathing was not chaotic at all.

He watched as the curls anchored his wrist to the attached groove, allowing the accumulated blood to drain out of the wound and fall into the groove.

Bright red pipes are filled.

Even if it looks like the amount of blood loss is not large, for ordinary humans, it is already approaching the limit of danger. Yuan Yuxue didn't struggle, his skin looked very pale and transparent against the background of this large amount of blood, his eyelashes trembled slightly, his fingers bent slightly, and the chains straightened.

"After the unclean blood comes out, the lesion can be observed." The performance of curly hair seems to make the man slightly satisfied. After the blood on the pipe was shallowly filled, he nodded slightly, and stepped forward to adjust the position of the mechanical chair.

Yuan Yuxue changed to a lying position as the mechanical chair changed, and his eyes could see the extremely high ceiling and the countless terrifying knives facing his eyes.

The man stepped forward and removed one of the knives. It was a thin knife about twenty centimeters long, with inconspicuous serrations at the blade, and he gestured at Yuan Yuxue's chest, and was about to take off his clothes for easy starting, when he suddenly heard a knock on the door, someone was shouting "Director", followed by a slightly anxious shout, "There is something wrong with the 27-bed patient." ”

The urging voice made the man put down the knife, and said with some displeasure: "I'm going to go out first, you are responsible for dissecting the patient's chest and removing the diseased organsβ€”by the way, remember to soak the organs in the potion, I will examine them." ”

After saying this, he hurried away.

The medical room, which is not very large, suddenly fell into a terrifying silence, and the remaining three players were facing each other.

First Curly Hair broke this unbearable silence, and he swallowed: "Otherwise, let's let Yuan Xuxue go and escape quickly?" ”

"What stupid are you talking about!" Ah Jin erupted after a long silence, her body was trembling, and she said angrily and fearfully, "What if you escape, how can the mission be completed, and we will go back and be punished together?" Didn't you hear what the doctor just said - he told us to soak Yuan Yuxue's organs in a potion. ”

"This is the human specimen, this is our mission object."

She took a deep breath and said bitterly, "We have seen everywhere, we have searched everywhere, and there are no specimens at all, the essence of this task...... It's just that let's kill each other. ”

"I know you can't do it, can I do it?" In the face of Curly's silence, Ah Jin's expression gradually became cold, "Now is the last chance." If you hesitate, I'm the only one. ”

She pushed away the curly hair, picked up the scalpel that the man had put down just now, and stood in front of Yuan Yuxue.

"I'm sorry, don't blame me." Ah Jin muttered, "But who told us that our luck was different? Curly and I are treated as interns, and you are the patient. In this way, you are the only one who is the most suitable to be the victim......"

At the moment when she was about to stab the scalpel into Yuan Yuxue's chest, the shackles that had been secretly pulled downward by Yuan Yuxue broke at that moment. Although he still had handcuffs around his wrists, he had already gained room to move, and at that moment he turned the handcuffs towards the scalpel, and the sharp blade cut the chains in it.

And at the moment when Ah Jin's pupils contracted, Yuan Yuxue had already stretched out her hand and easily cut her throat.

Hands were not spared.

After a very slight "click" sound, Ah Jin's body suddenly lost support and fell to the ground softly. The head of the body also slammed into the mechanical chair, and the blood from the forehead flowed out. She had her eyes open, and she didn't look dead.

Curly took two steps back sharply.

Even though Yuan Xuxue's feet were still firmly locked in the mechanical chair and he couldn't move freely for the time being, he still looked at Yuan Xuxue in fear, as if he saw some terrible monster: "I didn't want to kill you, and you don't want to kill me." Yuan wants snow, we are teammates ......"

"Not teammates." Yuan Yuxue, who had always been quiet, suddenly spoke, his eyes opened, and he glanced at Curly Hair in confusion.

"From the beginning I thought, what you're talking about is weird." Yuan Yuxue tilted her head slightly, and finally understood: "It turns out that you are imitating my teammates." ”

He revealed: Although I was puzzled, I understood the expression of respect.

"Curly": "?? ”

Chapter 20: Tricky Game

The light in the medical room dimmed slightly, turning into a strange blue and white light, "Curly Hair" instantly changed his face, he took a few steps back, and looked at Yuan Yuxue expressionlessly: "So that's the case, no wonder you're not scared or resentful - when did you find out?" ”

β€œοΌŸβ€

Yuan Yuxue paused slightly, and asked in a very light and even puzzled tone, "Do you still need to find out?" ”

From the moment the doctor, "Curly", and "Ah Jin" entered, he scanned the three of them, recorded each other's characteristic data, and didn't think about them to his teammates at all...... After all, robots don't recognize people by their faces, and all their appearances are just specific differences in Yuan Xuxue's eyes.

So much so that the performances of several people were very exaggerated and inexplicable in Yuan Yuxue's eyes from the beginning, and Yuan Yuxue observed in silence for a long time before figuring out their performance art.

This rhetorical question is obviously not very hurtful, but it is extremely insulting. "Curly" was so angry that his body trembled slightly, and cursed viciously. He looked up at Yuan Yuxue, his face was slightly distorted, and he was already curly in appearance. He cursed, "What if you can find out? You can escape, but your teammates will be trapped in this nightmare! Repeating the pain of either being killed or killing a teammate will never ......"

He probably wanted to say that there would be no peace, but before he finished speaking, Yuan Xuxue didn't want to hear it. He broke the chains on his feet, and very quickly got up and reached out, fingers that were so beautiful and slender as works of art that the power of the burst could break the steel bars alive.

"Curly" didn't react at all, and his neck was twisted off at once.

His eyes bulged, and he lost his breath before he could finish speaking, looking even more resentful than "Ah Jin".

But Yuan Yuxue didn't care.

In fact, just in terms of the setting of this illusion, it is very sinister.

Players who are dragged into it will lose their short-term memory and wake up in a desperate situation where they have been used as a test subject.

The horror of those medical devices will make people tremble even if they are simply observed, let alone come forward to "taste" the taste.

And at this time, I was lucky to see my "companions" - but they didn't come to save themselves.

This is the first take-off.

The companions were in a safe situation, either interns or physician assistants, but they were the only ones who became experiments.

Without even pretending, the companion quickly decided to sacrifice himself and get the quest items out of the game. The reason, as they say, is that they survived because of that bullshit luck. And if you are unlucky, you can only use it as a stepping stone and a sacrifice.

This sense of disparity can drive people crazy.

Most of the players who cooperate in the dungeon are temporary companions, and the friendship is not very deep. In the face of this desperate situation of being betrayed, I won't go into detail to see if there is something wrong with the personality of my teammates, or if there can be any hardships in this, most of them are directly crazy, and it is normal to think about ending up together.

From here, I fell into the trap of illusion.

Players who are not strong enough will be killed countless times by medical equipment. I can see my internal organs being taken out alive, but my consciousness is still clear, and the pain will never reach the end of death. Until his consciousness completely disintegrated, or turned into a demon, he also became one in the copy.

The second consequence is that those who are arrogant in strength will kill their "companions" who betray them.

As long as he is conscious and kills players from the same faction. In that moment, he too would be dragged into this illusion forever.

Repeating the scene he saw when he woke up countless times, an endless cycle began until he was too tired to resist - or perhaps he realized the trap, that his companion was played by other goblins. But it was too late, and from the first wrong step, I was forever stuck in the abyss of no hope, and there was never a chance to regret it.

In order to induce players to make mistakes, illusions often set up extreme antagonistic situations.

Experimenters and test subjects, "doctors" and patients who are considered "sick subjects".

usually falls into a situation where either you die or I die, but also to shorten the thinking time and urge the rhythm of choice. Even if a person is alert and calm, it is difficult to make the right choice at the moment of life and death, and people will always subconsciously prefer to choose in their own favor, which is human nature and beyond reproach.

But this fantasy choice, which is also testing human nature, has been punctured from the moment it meets Yuan Yuxue. Yuan Yuxue is ...... Rules that simply don't apply to this illusion.

He will not be swayed by visual deception, nor will he fall into emotional exhaustion due to factors such as "feelings" and "human nature". Judgment comes from the underlying data, and when faced with such a copy...... It's a hooligan.

After Yuan Yuxue finished solving the two imposters, she began to prepare to find clues to her teammates.

At this time, the illusion had been shattered, and when Yuan Xuxue pushed open the door of the medical room, the sight in front of her flickered slightly, as if she had been swallowed into another space, and a violent feeling of dizziness came.

When she opened her eyes again, Yuan Yuxue found herself once again in a small space, with a wall of flesh made of countless twisted arms in front of her. At this point, the arms were no longer moving, stiff like dead worms, but still overlapping.

Yuan Yuxue effortlessly tore open the cocoon made of intertwined arms, remembering the previous scene.

It seems that after being wrapped inside, it will fall into a brief period of dissonance.

Yuan Yuxue had encountered this situation before, and a small number of Zerg would spew hallucinogenic poison as a means of attack. But the effect is very slight, unlike just now, even Yuan Yuxue can't tell that he is in a state of dissonance-

Or maybe it's another real world.

A crack was torn open in the cocoon, and Yuan Yuxue quickly got out and saw two other huge cocoon bodies.

Compared to the gray and stiff state of the cocoon that Yuan Xuxue drilled out, these two cocoons are still alive. Countless white and boneless "arms" continue to stretch and intertwine, like surging snakes, and only two faint figures can be seen from a little gap.

Yuan Yuxue stepped forward and observed the thickness of the cocoon.

It's not like he can't just break these things and release the players who are wrapped in it. But in the current situation, we must always think more about how not to harm the human beings in it.

Yuan Yuxue raised her head, and a shadow fell from her pale black eyelashes. As he got closer, the cocoon in front of him suddenly struggled violently.

Pale pink nails protruded from it, and a hand that was clearly a normal human struggled to make a hole in it, digging out a little gap.

Yuan Yuxue didn't hesitate and helped her expand the rift a bit. Then a figure struggled out of it, probably because her feet were still tightly attached to it, and she staggered slightly, almost crawling out of the ground.

It's Ah Jin.

Yuan Yuxue saw that she was about to fall to the ground, and stepped forward to help her arm.

Ah Jin, who was touched, seemed to be in a state of extreme vigilance, and the whole person trembled slightly, and his face turned pale. When she saw Yuan Xuxue, her vigilance did not subside, she stood firm and took two steps back, hesitated for a moment, and then said in a dumb voice: "Yuan Xuxue? ”

Yuan Yuxue nodded.

Other than that, there is no other explanation.

It is somewhat difficult for him to learn the logic of human emotions and justify himself when he is doubted.

Ah Jin stared at him for a while, and then finally became convinced, and breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm sorry, something happened just now, and I can't believe it." Have you encountered the same ...... Uh, the same person as me and Curly? ”

Yuan Yuxue hesitated slightly and nodded, "...... Well. ”

Sort of.

"What curly hair?"

"It's still inside." With Yuan Xuxue's gaze, Ah Jin's gaze also fell on the last unbroken cocoon.

"Not out yet......" she whispered to herself, a little surprised. She couldn't help but walk over to the cocoon and take a closer look, after all, in her heart, Curly Hair was the one with the highest force value among them.

The "arms" didn't react to her, but tightened even more inward, wrapping into a narrower slit. Ah Jin's brows jumped slightly, and he couldn't help but say what he had found.

It looks more dangerous.

Yuan Yuxue began to clock in.

"Wait another ten minutes." He said, "I'm going to do it before I come out." ”

Ah Jin answered. She actually had a psychological shadow on those instruments, so she didn't dare to get too close, so she walked to a slightly empty place and began to wait. As an unpretentious counting tool, Yuan Yuxue was ready to directly dissect the cocoon wrapped in curly hair after the ten-minute countdown was accurate - it was also at this time that the cocoon agitated from the inside.

One foot stepped out of the inside.

Curly kicked a crack in annoyance, and the stiff "arms" fell down in a slump before he stepped out of it.

The curly hair was a mess, and the curly hair turned a little dark, and he quickly swept past the other two first, tearing off the disgusting arm that was still hanging on his body, and then said, "Hey." ”

He was facing in the direction of Yuan Yuxue, "Take off your mask and show me." ”

Yuan Yuxue: ". ”

Yuan Yuxue didn't even ask "why", and refused very coldly: "No." ”

Curly glanced at him suspiciously and stepped forward, as if ready to do it himself. Ah Jin saw that the atmosphere was not right, and took a few steps here to stop the infighting. Although she was a little afraid of curly hair, she still looked very imposing when she raised her face coldly: "You are still immersed in the illusion just now and have not come out?" Be careful of being hated for doing something wrong. ”

The phrase "hated" seems to be quite deterrent. Curly Mao paused for a moment, and glanced at Yuan Yuxue cautiously, estimating that he was likely to be a real person, before muttering and retracting his gaze: "Okay." The main thing is that my psychological shadow is a little big......"
