Infinite weird games

When he still wanted to live, Ziss fantasized about his own death countless times.

Perhaps he fell from the top of a cliff thousands of meters high, fell into a coma, and fell apart due to the constant feeling of weightlessness.

Perhaps it sank to the bottom of the endless deep ocean, was sealed in a certain layer of water by water pressure, and rotted while floating.

Later he came to understand that what he was yearning for at that time was nothing more than uncertainty.

When a person does not appear in the form of a corpse, no one can prove that he is dead, and no one can prove that he is alive.

Therefore, he was called "missing". Onlookers knew that this was a taboo term for death, and those involved used it as a pronoun for living.

At this time, someone needs to find his body, whether it is fragments or residual limbs, use some taxidermy methods to assemble it into a complete person, put it on the stage, and announce his death to the passers-by. .

Yes, death needs to be shown. In other words - it needs to be observed.

After the copy of "Dialectical Game" ended, Ziss seriously thought about how to die; and after "Double Happiness Town", he truly realized that he might die in the copy of the weird game.

Survival is not an easy task. Tens of thousands of people are struggling to survive. Why can he survive this?

His journey was too relaxed, too playful, and too lucky.

He is like a war machine that cannot come to an end once it appears on the stage. He must keep winning. If he loses a city, he will be shattered to pieces.

While Zeiss calmly analyzed the crisis he faced, he couldn't help but fall into the carnival of victory. At the same time, he frequently foresaw the outcome of his own death, both in the game and in reality.

He felt that his death needed to be witnessed.

Like now.

"Congratulations to player No. 1 on being sentenced to death! Now it's time for the execution that the audience is waiting to see!" Charlie announced loudly and enthusiastically, then bent down grandly, raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

At the same time, Zeiss felt a knife stabbing into the back of his head, slowly cutting forward along the midline of his body, peeling off his skin like a peel.

Severe pain exploded from the scratched area and spread rapidly in all directions; warm blood dripped from the top of the head, flowed into the eyes, and soon covered the entire face.

Qiss hissed slightly and raised his eyes with difficulty.

Through the light red, he couldn't see anything like a blade on top of his head. He could only see a layer of bloody and prickly human skin hanging down like rags.

He leaned back on the high-backed chair and stared quietly at the void in front of him. His sagging skin covered his vision with a veil. The blood gradually soaked the clothes all over his body and quickly lost its temperature, as if he had just been fished out of cold water.

The pain reached its peak and became less distinct. Qisi stared at the chips on the table, unreasonably guessing that he was like an onion at this moment, being peeled off layer by layer from the outside to the inside. .

It was clearly a terrifying scene, but he couldn't help but get excited and his heart beat rapidly.

When the entire skin fell off to his ankles like a coat, he found that one of the three chips lying flat in front of him suddenly turned into a pool of blood, scattered into fine blood beads, and seeped into the table.

In an instant, the blood and human skin around him were swept away like an illusion, and the shirt returned to its pure white color. Zeiss raised his hand and touched his face, and the skin and mask were exactly where they should be.

The pain was still there, and he leaned on the back of the chair without any strength, breathing a little faster, as if he was afraid because of the pain.

The players witnessed the bloody scene from the sidelines. Stimulated by the strong smell of blood and the association of horror, their expressions were not much better than Qiss's.

Dong Xiwen was completely confused when he saw Qisi "resurrected from the dead".

He was still immersed in the guilt that he had identified Qiss and indirectly killed someone, but now he found that the object of his regret had come to life, and he felt that all his emotions were stuck in one place.

But when he calmed down, he wasn't surprised anymore.

How could an old bastard like "Zhou Ke" leave the choice of life and death to others? Since he is willing to disclose his identity, he must have discovered something, and he is 100% sure.

Cynthia also thought of this belatedly.

The conversations between Zeiss and Charlie came to her mind one by one, and she understood the key almost immediately.

The game is fair, and the chips are the ticket to the game and the player's life... being killed in the game does not really die; in this scene, each player has three lives!

Even so, Cynthia still asked without giving up: "Mr. Charlie, you said before that the tiger can choose to kill the fox. I want to kill No. 1, why is he still alive? I think there is a problem with the rules of this game."

"First of all, congratulations to player No. 1 for spending one chip and returning to the center of our stage!" Charlie congratulated happily before turning his masked face to Cynthia, "There are no problems with the rules! It's just a small game. If If you die in the game, you will really die, and that is the greatest injustice!”

There was no room for change. Cynthia took a long breath and realized that she was about to face a more serious problem:

Her betrayal just now has undoubtedly consumed the trust of the players. If there is another vote, she will definitely replace Qiss and become the first person everyone wants to eliminate...

Qi Si slumped in the chair and smiled and said, "You should have all discovered that this game of 'catching foxes' cannot be 'fair' in any way if it is viewed from a single round. The simplest and most brutal way to make an unfair game fair is to increase the number of rounds and exchange identities in each round. As long as each player plays all identities once, the game will be fair."

"Three chips means that there are three rounds in the game. After all, it is impossible for each player to play all four identities. To achieve relative fairness, one identity must be fixed and only three identities must be rotated."

His voice was weak, but his pronunciation was clear: "The tiger identity obviously has advantages and no risks, and the wolfdog and fox identities obviously have risks and no advantages, which are all unbalanced. The rabbit has both risks and advantages, which is a relatively balanced card. So I guess that the identity of 'rabbit' is fixed, and He Hui will always be 'rabbit' in the next two rounds of the game."

Cynthia thought of something, and the wrinkles on her face twitched slightly.

Qi Si stopped looking at her, turned his head slightly, and looked at He Hui and Dong Xiwen respectively: "You should have seen that Ms. Cynthia firmly believes in the principle of zero-sum game. Even in a game with a winning strategy, she wants to harm people first. Such unstable factors should be eliminated earlier, right?" "In the next two rounds, her identity is nothing more than 'wolf dog' or 'fox'. If she is a wolf dog, we can report her identity at will, and she has a two-thirds chance of losing the game; if she is a fox, it will be convenient, just execute her directly - what do you think?" Dong Xiwen expressed confusion: "But she still has three chips, even if she loses two games in a row, the chips will not be cleared." Cynthia sensed a glimmer of hope, calmed down, and said: "You also saw it, just Even if I lose two games in a row, I will still have one chip left, which will not affect the ending. You are different from 'Zhou Ke'. I know your appearance information. Even if you die in the dungeon, you can use the last time to influence reality after you get out. 'Zhou Ke' guides you to target me just to force you to stand on the same side. You don't have to risk offending me and take the initiative to send him to use. "

"You calculated wrong." Qi Si said lightly, "If you are a wolfdog, after catching the wrong person, the rabbit will make the correct identification, the rabbit will win, and each of us will give the rabbit a chip. And you will consume another chip after being executed. In other words, in that round, you will lose a total of two chips. "

Cynthia made a quick calculation and her face turned ugly.

If things really develop according to "Zhou Ke's" plan, she will just use up all the chips at the end of the third round of the game.

No one knows what will happen when the chips are exhausted, but according to common sense, the end is probably to go to real death...

Cynthia looked directly at Qi Si and slowed down her voice: "Zhou Ke, choosing to execute you was my wrong decision. I understand your anger, but I hope you can put the overall situation first and don't act on impulse. You said that to crack the world view, you can't lack clues in any room. If I die, you may not be able to enter Room 1. You won't survive the third act."

Qis smiled: "You also said that cracking the world view is too unsafe. For the life and death of the sinner, it is very unwise to put everyone's energy into a guess that is not sure whether it is correct or not."

He imitated Cynthia's tone and said compassionately: "We never have room for choice. Didn't Charlie say? After the dead appear, the tour The play is over. We need a dead person. "

Cynthia shook her head slightly: "Charlie also said that the rabbit can also end the game if it reaches three draws or wins. You incited them to target me together, just to ignore the overall situation and avenge your own personal grudge. "

"You can say that, but I want to ask, why should we keep you?" Qi Si tilted his head and looked at her puzzledly, "Keep you to find a chance to give us another knife, or deal with us in reality after you go out?"

"I can swear to you." Cynthia raised her right hand with her palm facing outward, "I will not do anything in any form that is detrimental to you after I leave the copy, and I promise to do my best to benefit mankind."

"Empty promises cannot convince people unless there is a guarantee of coercion." Qi Si snapped his fingers.

The red light condensed into a bloody scroll, floating in front of him from time to time, and the gilded lines outlined the word "契", reflecting the golden light and shadow at the moment of attention.

He stared at Cynthia, and the corners of his lips raised the same arc as the clown mask: "Sign a contract with me and write all the promises on paper, how about it?"

Cynthia looked at the long contract scroll that slowly flew in front of her, and the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes twisted into vortices: "You said so much, it should be to force me to sign this agreement? This is your skill, I can't be sure whether there will be other consequences after signing. This is not fair to me."

Qis narrowed his eyes and smiled: "You have no other choice."

At this point, Cynthia knew that she was really in trouble.

With the advantage visible to the naked eye, she failed to see the hidden risks and ran into the trap that Qis had woven for her...

She smiled bitterly, picked up the golden feather pen condensed in the void, and signed her name on the bloody paper.

[The contract has been signed, this contract is guaranteed by the world rules, and no existence can disobey]

Because this contract is related to everyone, every player can hear the system prompt sound.

Dong Xiwen's eyes looked at Qisi a little more deeply. He remembered that the organization he joined seemed to be inextricably linked to the "contract"...

"The second round of the game begins!"

Charlie snapped his fingers cheerfully, and a new card appeared in front of each player.

Everyone quickly reported their identities. Cynthia was a wolfdog, Qisi was a tiger, and Dong Xiwen was a fox.

Cynthia and Hehui identified Dong Xiwen at the same time, but Qisi chose to let them go.

In the third round of the game, Cynthia is the fox, Qisi is the wolfdog, and Dong Xiwen is the tiger.

Qisi and Hehui identified Cynthia at the same time, but Dong Xiwen chose to let it go.

Game over, no one dies.

"Wonderful, wonderful game!" Charlie clapped his hands three times slowly, looking weird in line with his words, "The game of 'Catch the Fox' is over, the next game is Crazy Black Jack!"

The players heard this and looked at each other.

Dong Xiwen asked first: "Isn't the game over? Why is there another one? It won't be endless, right?"

Charlie replied with a smile: "The game will not really end until the dead appear!"

The dead must appear...

Could it be that this scene is the same as the first scene, and one player must be chosen as the victim in order to pass the level?

After the little episode just now, it is not difficult to determine the victim.

Cynthia was the first to harm others, so it seems only natural that she should pay with her life...

"Mr. Charlie, are you guilty?"

Qisi suddenly asked in a cold voice.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, but heard him continue: "'Everyone of us is guilty,' so I would like to ask, are you, who has been standing in the center of the stage, included in this 'us'?"
