Chapter 772: Frequently for life(1/2)
After the fourth act, the game plot fell into independent play.
From this moment on, how the subsequent events will develop will depend on the choices of the two store managers here.
Room 1001 without turning on the lights.
Darkness has long become their most familiar color.
Hou Guisheng leaned against a corner of the wall, looking at the bright moon outside the window with his dark eyes.
The silver wine pot was pinched in his hand, shining with crescent-colored light, passing through his cheeks like a knife-carved one.
Ji Li sat upright on the sofa, a little spark shining between his fingers, and wisps of smoke rose from there.
In the calm eyes, the faint night was also intoxicated with it, lingering in a gentle manner.
Now, there are only two of them left in the game world.
To be precise, the only ones who are willing and powerful to carry out this game are the only ones.
Ji Li and Hou Guisheng represent the top intelligence among the ten players, courage, resoluteness and courage.
"Then, what we are looking for in the game world is likely to be related to the supernatural world."
Hou Guisheng took a sip of wine, letting him wet his clothes freely and said softly.
Three identities, four worlds.
Ji Li once believed that the protagonist of the game should be pursuing something that he was collecting evidence in the world.
But judging from what we have mastered now, he is not looking for it, but looking for it.
Verify, repeatedly verify.
Verify the authenticity of this world.
Act 1, the father who has resurrected from the dead; Act 2, the notes lost in memory; Act 3, the plot of inexplicably missing; Act 4, the hunting of human hearts and ghosts; Act 1 - false wishes; Act 2 - lost fear; Act 3 - disordered chapters; Act 4 - the reversal of humans and ghosts; the reversal of the world, the authenticity of humans and ghosts.
At this point, the current fifth act is introduced, a plot that is outlined by the player (i.e. the protagonist):
Escape from falsehood and return to reality.
This game is a dream where a man and ghost are inseparable. After verifying the first four acts, he wakes up.
Hide the plot, the last step that was interrupted: sober.
"Give you my original body."
So, be faceless.
Faceless means losing the boundaries of identity in this dream of being inseparable from humans and ghosts.
Only by not having an identity can you get out of the original dream and return to the real world.
Living people who tear off their faces are for those who have no faces.
This is a broken test product, representing the product of failure.
The ghost that tear off the skin is for the faceless ghost.
This is the lost person trapped in the dream of nothingness, representing the terrifying reality.
So, be a faceless person.
A new character who perfectly loses his face and completely gets rid of his human and ghost identities.
Go and open the door.
Fang Shenyan has already seen the answer through the vermilion wood carving.
At the same time, this answer was established in the game world.
Don't worry about why you need to open the door for now, think about how to open it first.
1. Losing your face; 2. Holding the key in hand; 3. Finding the door; ultimate goal: Go to the root world, perhaps also called the real world.
The three elements are the same as expected.
The key, Ji Li has; the gate seems to have an answer.
The supernatural world is a vaguely connected to the dual worlds of reality and games.
This channel is always presented in a broken way, and each time it is opened, it corresponds to a single floor.
When Tian Xiaoou became a faceless ghost, he went to the place where the "ripples" came from.
I think that if you become a faceless person, open up a supernatural world, and follow the faceless ghost, you can find the ripples.
And there is probably where the gate is located.
At present, the only question is how to become a faceless person.
Ji Li and Fang Shenyan once believed that the conditions for achieving this element are in the real world.
But judging from what happened before, reality is still needed, and the game can only be used to interact with it.
and……
Sucheng River is the key.
Because becoming a faceless person, Su Chenghe also needs to bring him into the supernatural world.
"Facialless people are not something we players can do. Who is your choice?"
Hou Guisheng seemed to have not focused on "becoming a faceless person", he was more concerned about who would act.
Ji Li vomited a puff of smoke rings and responded naturally:
"Fang Shenyan."
He held one of the elements of opening the door in his hand, so he naturally had to assign his own people to do this.
Hou Guisheng's expression did not fluctuate, but let the moonlight flow on his face, and said:
"Chen Hansheng walked to the final floor, and he made the fastest progress and was already ahead of Fang Shenyan."
It has been determined that the conditions for achieving the elements must be realistic and the game will cooperate with each other.
There are many candidates in reality: Li Yi, Luo Xian, Chen Hansheng, Fang Shenyan... Even Clyde and others are still there.
But the only characters in the game are Ji Li and Hou Guisheng.
It can be said that this time the store manager's mission is closest to the clearance, with only the third branch and the seventh branch.
Of course, Hou Guisheng hoped that Chen Hansheng would be; Ji Li naturally hoped that Fang would speak cautiously.
Ji Li frowned slightly, he snuffed out the cigarette in his hand, turned his head and said:
“The second element: the key is in my hands.
I am qualified to identify the doorkeeper.”
Hou Guisheng turned around and spoke without any slightest avoidance:
"The first element: losing my face, I know the way to become a faceless person.
I also have this qualification.”
Tit-for-tat, equal advantages.
The question of candidates can be put aside first, because we have to wait for Chen Hansheng and Fang Shenyan to see if they can come out alive from the third level.
During this time, they will face a big problem.
Ji Li slowly stood up from the sofa, stood in the hall, stared at him for a long time and said:
"The third element is that the prerequisite for opening the door requires the opening of the supernatural world on a large scale.
The 18th floor of the Black and White Building, the worst result is that there are eighteen head alarm clocks.
I have five now.”
Hou Guisheng's eyes gradually became colder, and he reached into his bag and took out a head and placed it on the windowsill.
"Including me, we have six in total, and there are still twelve in it.
We have to do it step by step.”
Ji Li looked at him with a silence.
Hou Guisheng narrowed his eyes, hesitated for a moment before briefly explaining:
“I don’t have resurrection coins on me, don’t ask.
When things are over, I will tell you the reasons for losing and the secret of the second act together.”
No one knows which level of the gate is located in the supernatural world.
The only way to find the door is to follow the faceless ghost, which requires a large number of head alarm clocks.
The worst-case outcome is that eighteen heads are needed to cover the eighteen floors.
But no matter what, the number of these six is definitely not enough now.
Ji Li raised his hand and took out three resurrection coins from his pocket and spread them in his palm.
To be continued...
