Infinite weird games

The rabbit statue sat in the dilapidated shrine, its black robes as neat as sculptures, never fluttering with the water.

The wear and tear of time and the erosion of water have carved out wave marks on the surface. It has long lost its original splendor, but it is still sacred and solemn.

Strips of red silk were scattered around the statue, and they sank quietly and obediently to the bottom of the pool. The edges were white and rotten, and the writing was unclear.

Qisi walked closer step by step and did not feel any discomfort of facing the gods directly. Even if he was close at hand, he could not touch the aftermath of the divine power.

It seemed to be just an ordinary statue, a dead thing without life.

Zeiss caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of his eye. He bent down and picked up the thing.

It is the only well-preserved prayer tape with three words written on it:

[Weird games, rules, transactions]

It was clearly Qisi's own handwriting, but Qisi had no impression of it.

The handwriting contained the remnants of contract authority, and the [Soul Contract] skill was affected by a weak resonance, so he was able to confirm that the three words were written by him himself.

Combined with the current powerless state of the Rabbit God, he seemed to vaguely deduce the logical line behind the copy.

He entered the copy of "Beware the Rabbit" just to gain divine power. There is a world line where he succeeded in the past time and space where Usagi God Town is located. From then on, the Usagi God in Nozomi Middle School no longer has divine power.

If he wants to get what he wants in this world line, he must go to the past of Rabbit God Town, that is, before the power of Rabbit God has been captured.

The outcome has been decided, not only for Lu Ming, but also for him.

Lingzi will die, and the Rabbit God's divine power will be seized by him through the power of the contract. The former is an outcome that Lu Ming cannot accept, and the latter is the purpose of his trip.

What he needs to do is to form a closed loop and push the ending to be achieved as it is destined to be, because he will keep winning, so Reiko is destined to die.

He is an unscrupulous selfish person who will not hesitate to sacrifice the whole world for the slightest benefit, let alone exchange Reiko's death for divine power...

The water flowing with golden vines surged into the shape of a Möbius strip in front of his eyes, and Zis knew the solution to this copy at a glance.

This is a simple copy. Li Yuan is more practical than Qi. He said he would give him divine power, so he would not add obstacles. He came to this dungeon just to go through the motions, without too many complicated puzzles and twists and turns...

Lu Ming's hope is destined to fail. No one cares about the thoughts of an NPC. He is just a trivial sacrifice in a deal with the gods, just like a human waving his sleeves casually, inadvertently causing the ants above to fall to the ground...

But is it really that simple? If the Rabbit God of Hope Middle School really has no supernatural powers, why was Reiko sacrificed by the students? What happens to "Lu Ming" who has been forgotten by everyone?

There were still many things that Qiss didn't understand, and there was no logical explanation for those doubts. Just like the sudden appearance of stains on the white wall, it set off a bad warning in the subconscious.

He returned to the water, and his vision suddenly changed. When he came back to his senses, he was already standing on the lake shore, next to the warning sign.

Although the clothes were wet, they were only dampened by water vapor and not soaked by the bone-deep lake water.

The experience of sinking to the bottom of the lake just now seems to be just an illusion, and there is no evidence to prove that the event happened.

Qisi walked back to the teaching building, went up to the third floor, and returned to the classroom of Class 9, Junior Three.

At half past seven, everyone should have arrived, and the front and back doors of the classroom were closed by the monitor on duty who was in charge of morning reading.

Qisi noticed that there were nearly half fewer students in the classroom than yesterday. The girls had basically disappeared, and there were two fewer boys. They were the two who were arrested by the dean last night.

After class, the students laughed, chased and fought as usual, just like a normal middle school recess. No one seemed to notice that half of the students were missing.

Zis turned his head, grabbed the wrist of the boy in the back row, and asked: "Why are there so few people in the class? Do you know where they have gone?"

Although the boy was impatient, he still answered patiently when he saw the blade Qisi held between his fingers: "Either they couldn't bear the pressure and transferred to another school, or they committed something and were persuaded to leave, and some of them had to rely on the support of their families. Let's find a way out for them.

"Oh, they are so happy. They probably haven't gotten up yet. So we unlucky ones have to stay in this shabby school and work hard to pass the high school entrance examination."

Qisi raised his eyebrows and asked, "Did they make an appointment and leave overnight?"

The boy looked at Qisi in confusion: "Lu Ming, are you awake? They have been leaving intermittently for a while. The first one left was just after the school rules were changed half a year ago."

"Change the school rules?"

"Yeah, I don't know what's wrong with the principal's mind. When we entered school, he promised us to spend three years happily, but suddenly he started to focus on our grades..."

The boy's true feelings were aroused, and he complained endlessly about how miserable he had been in the past six months, which was consistent with the information Qisi learned from the report.

He roughly understood that in this copy, students who violated school rules and disciplines would disappear, but they would be given a reasonable reason that would not arouse suspicion.

The memory of the NPC is obviously disordered. It will automatically modify its cognition under the interference of the copy. The description of time and events is inaccurate. Even disappearing overnight can be remembered as leaving inland for half a year...

So, are their memories of "Lu Ming" also inaccurate?

They said that "Lu Ming" was Lu Ming's brother, who jumped off a building and died not long ago.

The fact is that it was Lu Ming who jumped off a building and died.

The cognitive modification is to make the copy logic smoother and avoid NPCs from discovering obvious inconsistencies.

Imagine that Lu Ming died on July 31st and was reported in the newspaper with great fanfare, but appeared in the classroom intact on August 1st. Such a big bug would inevitably arouse NPC suspicion.

So, the one who died could only be Lu Ming.

Lu Ming looks exactly like Lu Ming, so how to explain it? It's very simple, just treat him as Lu Ming's twin brother.

From this point of view, [Lu Ming's Diary] is actually [Lu Ming's Diary], and the boy who wipes the rabbit bones in the picture and is suspected to be closely connected with the Rabbit God is Lu Ming himself.

And because Lu Ming has no brother, when Qi Si asked the NPC about his brother alone, he got confused and negative responses.

Only once, when he mentioned "Lu Ming" in Li Fang's office and mentioned Lu Ming's death in passing, Li Fang seemed to remember something and showed fear and impatience.

At noon, Lingzi waited for Qi Si, or "Lu Ming" in her eyes, at the door of the classroom as usual.

Although Qi Si knew that she would die and had no sympathy to change her fate, he still showed a friendly smile and chatted with her.

"Lu Ming, the dean talked to Teacher Li this morning, and they argued for a long time." Lingzi said worriedly.

Qi Si, the culprit, raised his eyebrows slightly: "Oh? Did something happen?"

"I don't know either. I'll ask Teacher Li after dinner." Lingzi sighed, "Alas, Teacher Li often quarrels with the school's senior management for us. She is a good teacher who really cares about us.

"At the beginning, the school never cared about discipline or learning, and hoped that the middle school would be in a mess from top to bottom. It was Teacher Li who took the risk of being hated by the students and taught us knowledge seriously and controlled our behavior.

"In the past six months, the school has begun to be eager for quick success and pushed us to death. It was also Teacher Li who withstood the pressure of the school and selected valuable exercises for us to improve our learning efficiency..."

"Well, she is indeed very responsible." Qi Si responded sincerely.

Li Fang and Lingzi are both special NPCs. Prompt texts can pop up on their bodies, and their bodies exist in the school.

Qi Si guessed that they probably died before the seven-day cycle began.

Li Fang could see her own body because her death was a foregone conclusion; Lingzi could not see her own body because Lu Ming was still trying his best to save her, and her life and death depended on the game between Lu Ming and a higher being.

After his death, Lu Ming did not enter reincarnation, and he put the entire Hope Middle School into the ghost realm, repeating the cycle again and again, just to let Lingzi survive... This self-sacrificing complex was something Qi Si could not understand.

He followed Lingzi, walked around the cafeteria, and left the cafeteria with an empty plate.

Although he was using Lu Ming's body, theoretically a dead person, he did not intend to let hair and maggots enter his stomach at all.

Fortunately, the dead do not need to eat, and he did not feel hungry after skipping two meals.

The afternoon class went on as usual, and Li Fang was as strict as ever, and did not show any more emotions such as anger.

If he hadn't heard Lingzi talk about it, Qi Si would never have seen that she had just had a fierce argument with the dean of teaching. But it seems that the dean of teaching is a very kind ghost, and he did not betray Qi Si who was snitching.

When Qi Si sneaked into the office in the morning, he put the self-review into the homework book. Li Fang probably received it when she was correcting the homework. After class, she did not ask him for the self-review, nor did she invite him to the office again.

The day ended smoothly. Qi Si was no longer as curious as the first day, but he also felt nostalgic.

When he was in junior high school, he had never studied so peacefully. He was either disturbed by a group of bored classmates, or thinking about how to retaliate with bloody means, and then making plans to destroy the body after killing someone...

At five o'clock in the evening, time stagnated again, and the space was filled with gray silence.

[The second round of "Escape from Rabbit God Town"]

[Achieved the ending ② The boy and girl who disappeared]

[There is 00:00:00 left until the next release of the game "Escape from Rabbit God Town"]

Under the falling blessing belt, Lu Ming sat quietly in the chair and looked at Qi Si.

"It's time." He said.

Qi Si knew that the only way for him to establish a connection with the Rabbit God Town in the past time and space in this copy was through the game "Escape from Rabbit God Town" made by Lu Ming.

Lu Ming didn't know what price he paid to open up the time and space between the present and the past, and sent players to Rabbit God Town again and again.

Maybe in his opinion, Lingzi died because she was sacrificed to the Rabbit God. As long as he could go back to Rabbit God Town to change the past, he could solve the problem from the source.

But things are obviously not that simple.

The Rabbit God may not have been in the territory of Hope Middle School half a year ago, or he lost the power to fulfill wishes. Otherwise, the senior management of Hope Middle School could continue to trade with him without suddenly starting to tighten the students' learning.

So, who accepted Lingzi's sacrifice?

Qis suddenly thought of a very interesting possibility, which is a tragedy caused by a time paradox.

He grinned a weird smile like a hyena: "Okay, let's start as soon as possible."

Lu Ming snapped his fingers.

The prayer belt between heaven and earth is circling and dancing like an elf, and among the floating light and shadow, lines of text are refreshed.

[Game name: "Escape from Rabbit God Town"]

[Mission goal:? ? ? 】

[Warm reminder: Be careful with rabbits]

[Save point: ① "Suspicious Question"; ② Reiko's Rabbit God Mask]

[Would you like to read the archive and start the game? 】

"Yes, read archive two."

[The third episode of "Escape from Usagi Kamachi" begins]

"Xiao Qi, look! They are selling rabbit masks over there!" From a condescending perspective, Reiko ran to the mask stall with her skirt in hand, picked up the Rabbit God mask and put it on her face.

The angle of view fell back, Qisi attached to Xiao Qi's body, and Reiko in front of her said with a smile: "Everyone has been so polite to me recently, even though they said before that you are the child who is most like the Rabbit God!"

Unable to control his body, Zeiss walked towards the stall owner as shown in the second episode, took the Rabbit God mask from the stall owner, and lowered his eyes: "The fireworks festival is coming soon, I want to ask what I can do to become more like the Rabbit God Sir, is there anything I haven't done enough?"

The stall owner smiled apologetically: "Qilang has done a very good job. We are a small business and we always have to say a few words to please people, just like forming a good relationship..."

The plot continued to fast forward, and Qisi heard himself say: "My father always said that he was sick because he was not religious enough. Even I am no longer the child who most resembles the Rabbit God... I think the opinions of outsiders may be more trustworthy. ”

Reiko said: "How could you not be pious enough? You must have made a mistake somewhere... I think Uncle Kanna is a very good person and always smiles at me, but my mother seems to dislike him very much...

"Mom also told me not to play with you, but I just don't let her know. I like to play with Xiaoqi the most!"

"I think your mother misunderstood me because of some people's unfair evaluation. Maybe you can take me to see her, and maybe the misunderstanding can be resolved."

"After my father passed away, my mother stopped allowing me to take other people home. Should I go back and persuade her?"

"No, please don't tell Reiko that I told you these things, so as not to embarrass her." The plot before the save point ended, and Qisi resumed control of his body.

He turned to Reiko and said the same words he said during the second round: "Reiko, let's walk along this street and take a look outside Usagiami Town."

But this time, he pointed to the southeast, which was the opposite direction from the second week. (End of chapter)
