Infinite weird games

Weird Investigation Bureau Jiangcheng Branch, 5th floor underground.

The cool white light reflects the storage area as bright as the operating room. In a fully transparent storage room in the core area, dark blue electronic patterns flow on the glass surface, projecting cold holographic data:

【Strange name: Shengpu】

【Genre: Props】

【Hazard degree: E (?)】

[Note: The life status of the person marked by the name is marked, the red character is life, and the black character is death. It is the same as "Death Book" (hazard degree A, the effect is to kill the reporter within one minute), but it has not shown any harm to humans yet and has no pollution extravasation. 】

There is a yellowed ancient book on the edge in the middle of the shelter. The spreading page contains the investigator's name, which reminds people of the legendary book of life and death.

The two names "Fe Zhenqi" and "Ning Xu" are written at the end, and are newly added, bright red as blood, forming a bizarre and sharp contrast with more than ten black characters above.

Mu Dongxu pressed the cigarette butt into the spittoon that had been filled with ashes. Liao Bingchen beside him peeled off the twenty-fifth chewing gum and stuffed it into his mouth.

Since they lost contact with Ning Xu, they each brought stools and came here. They have been sitting outside this shelter for two days - this is the only "battlefield" they are allowed to contact.

After the final copy was settled, a group of people from the headquarters, including Fu Jue, Shao Qingmin, etc. took over the affairs of the Jiangcheng Branch. All investigators who were originally from Jiangcheng were included in the temporary observation list, and even applying for peripheral investigations was required. Experienced layers of electronic approval.

Mu Dongxu knew the subtext behind this process: Most of the original team of Jiangcheng Branch lost to the God-Surrendering incident, and the survivors were suspected of being big or small, and did not lock them up with Wei Wei. Together, we are already considering the past relationship.

"Old Mu, this doesn't make sense at all." Liao Bingchen kneaded the candy paper into a ball and muttered in a low voice, "While saying that it was to reduce unnecessary losses in order to prepare for the final copy, the other hand packaged them and sent them out. What do you mean by this? ? ”

Mu Dongxu interrupted, "Don't think about it. The previous investigation of the God-Subduing incident has not yet come out. Be careful that disaster comes from the mouth."

He stared at the [Sheng Book] behind the glass and lowered his voice: "Sending out to deal with the incident is the least troublesome. Whether it is success or failure, the headquarters will not be able to investigate further these days. Otherwise, Chang Xu's stall would be the one who is going to Chang Xu. The bad debt may not be over for a while."

"Hey, isn't this your second room responsible for it? What's the matter with Xiaofei?" Liao Bingchen blinked twice, "On the day when the God descended, our entire room was on mission outside, and we only came back at noon the next day... ”

"Old Liao, Qijia Village is a B-level weirdness. According to regulations, at least two people must be sent over. Xiao Ning is a civil servant, so don't let the tip follow him?" Mu Dongxu said lightly, but I also had vague doubts.

According to the normal principle of expatriation, Ning Xu and Fei Zhenqi belong to different departments and will not be picked out alone to get together...

He was in a daze, but he saw that the blood on the names "Fe Zhenqi" and "Ning Xu" faded rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if it was wiped out by an invisible eraser.

The nails clasped the chair handle and made a "creaking" sound. Mu Dongxu staggered and stood up, trying to get close to the glass to see carefully, but at the last moment he retreated and smashed himself heavily on the chair.

Liao Bingchen's chewing sound stopped. Two seconds later, he suddenly stood up and kicked over the chair: "I have long said that E-level props are not trustworthy. This broken thing is used every day and will malfunction sooner or later..."

The subsequent words were so weak that they could hardly be captured. He fell to the ground in depressed manner and laughed "haha": "I must have made a mistake. I taught him this guy step by step. If you encounter a weird thing that you can't handle, Run... I can't die no matter what..."

"The traces of human intervention in the ghost realm of Qijia Village. If they happen to meet the initiator, it will not be easy to escape." Fu Jue's voice came from the shadows and rang lukewarmly in the empty containment area.

He also went down to the fifth floor of the underground at some point. While walking towards Mu Dongxu, he said in an announcing tone: "Tess has been listed on the S-class wanted list. The military will immediately block all entrances and exits of Jiangcheng and unfold the carpet. , until the final copy ends.”

Mu Dongxu slowly turned around and looked at his emotionally unconscious eyes: "Fu Jue, you knew it would be the result for a long time, right?"

Fu Jue's gaze swept across the frozen ink color on the book, and then looked at Mu Dongxu's gaze.

He didn't answer after all, turned around and walked into the elevator, and the iron door closed behind him.

…

At 10:00 a.m. on May 1, Tse opened his eyes in a two-story building in Qijia Village.

As a god, he does not need sleep or dreams. Last night, he closed his eyes, but just followed the branches of the soul leaves to trace the source and collect information from every corner of the world.

He happily discovered that Dong Xiwen took off from Ruidanshen Casino by facilitating a survivor game draw.

This saved him from the trouble of helping him, and of course it wasn't that trouble.

If Dong Xiwen really broke into Ruidanshen Casino, he would probably only be incense sticks of incense on the ground and look for new tools.

Tse entered the Sunset Ruins and threw the [Scholar] card to Dong Xiwen who was forced to summon him, and then turned his attention to the territory of Jiangcheng.

He saw real guns and bullets appearing on the border of Jiangcheng, and the entrances and exits were blocked, and his photos were put together with the word "wanted".

The picture was sometimes blurry and sometimes clear, but he could still accurately judge that the official forces were conducting a carpet search of Jiangcheng.

Strangely, the search was limited to Jiangcheng.

Qi Si knew that the news of Fei Zhenqi and Ning Xu's death must have been known by the Weird Investigation Bureau in some unknown way. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was "in Jincheng, not Jiangcheng".

In this way, the search operation against him was full of performance, or intimidation, so that since he had left Jiangcheng, he should not come back.

Qi Si sat up from the bed, picked up his mobile phone and swiped the screen boredly, stopping at a chat record from a month ago.

[Jin Yusheng: You should be careful too, don't leave Jiangcheng before the end of the year. I told you that you are in conflict with places other than Jiangcheng! ]

When this message was sent, Qi Si was in a taxi from Jiangcheng to Jincheng, and he didn't feel that he was unlucky.

Considering the relationship between Jin Yusheng and Ning Xu, is this a sincere reminder or a false inducement?

He was too lazy to think about it.

In short, he didn't plan to return to Jiangcheng before the end of the final copy.

Rather than playing in the dark within the sphere of influence of the Weird Investigation Bureau, it is better to stay in Qijia Village, a ghostland completely under his control.

Qi Si stared at his phone with his chin shrugged, and found that he was more and more afraid of trouble. It seemed that even playing with people could not arouse his interest in action.

If it was a month ago, he might have remotely controlled Weird to kill a few people, create some chaos, and then make the people of the Weird Investigation Bureau run around.

But now, any interest would be dispelled by other boring thoughts as soon as it came up. He seemed to have become a barren wilderness, without flowers and animals. The wind blew silently, which could only cause the shallow grass to fall.

Is it the influence of the billions of years of memory as a god? Counting it, he is also an "old man"...

Qi Si thought about it in a mess, and felt uncomfortable inexplicably.

The feeling of being unfamiliar because of missing a piece lingered in his mind, like finding a childhood photo many years later and seeing a completely different face.

But if he really looked into it, he couldn't remember what he had lost or what he was missing.

At twelve o'clock noon, Qi Si received a text message from Lin Chen, saying that he was going to have a holiday and hoped to get together in real life to have a meal and discuss some things.

Xu Yao, who had been playing on the computer all day, floated out from the corner of the wall and peeked at the content of the text message: "Qisi, you are going out for a banquet, right? This person said he wanted to talk about the final copy, so will you take me with you?"

She has undoubtedly adapted well to modern life. Recognizing simplified Chinese characters is not a problem, and her speaking habits do not show any signs of being an ancient person.

Qi Si said, "You can go if you want to. I think even if you are unlucky enough to meet a Heavenly Master, you can handle it properly with your ability."

"But this ghost area must be guarded by a ghost of my level. I can't leave." Xu Yao touched her face in distress, her eyes fell on the blessing belt tied on Qi Si's wrist, "Unless there is a kind ghost willing to replace me, or you catch another ghost? We have to hurry up, otherwise I can't enter the final copy..."

Qis heard her hidden meaning, silently pulled off [Lingzi's blessing belt], and summoned Lingzi.

Lingzi, with cracks on her face and bloody flesh, squatted in the middle of the room, staring blankly at the void in front of her, obviously not understanding why she was here.

Before she could move, the statue of the God of Joy appeared out of thin air in front of her, suspended in the air, and a bloody silk thread tied to her left wrist, connecting her and the statue of the God of Joy in the air.

"Thank you!" Xu Yao gave Qi Si a mischievous smile, then bent down and touched Lingzi's head, "Little sister, take good care of the house, sister is going out to play."

Lingzi: "..."

...

On May 2, the game forum and Sunset Ruins were in chaos.

The forum was filled with a large number of posts containing the keyword "life-saving strategy", the content was mixed, and most of them were garbage, there were outrageous suggestions such as "reciting the name of God to seek the protection of the evil god", and some people even claimed that they should kill more people and turn to slaughtering players to cater to the orientation of the supreme rules of the weird game.

In addition to these rumors that were either stupid or bad, the second most common were offline trading posts for props. Many wealthy and powerful people who did not have many points but had a lot of money did not hesitate to pay a premium to purchase various life-saving props, even if most of the props that entered the market were actually useless, at least they had to buy them for peace of mind.

There is also a folk group called "Final Dungeon Survival Camp" that has been spontaneously formed. It has posted a message calling on all players who hope to survive the change to gather in Myanmar Province for survival training. Hundreds of players have signed up so far.

Jiuzhou and Tingfeng held several public meetings in Sunset Ruins, announcing some of the candidates who will enter the final dungeon, and comforted the players who are not eligible to participate. Although the effect was minimal, it did restore some reputation.

Humans have always liked to reshape new gods with fear on the ruins of the statues that they had toppled. On weekdays, they are happy to criticize authority and show freedom, but when the sky really falls, they begin to expect a patriarch to take care of everything for them.

More and more people are calling on Jiuzhou to regain the management rights of the game forum and Sunset Ruins, and lead all human players to fight against weird games like the Ark in the past.

Fu Jue returned to Jiuzhou in response to public expectations and immediately set about cracking down on various chaos and stabilizing order.

…

On May 3, twelve autonomous regions including Xiangcheng, Quran, Jerusalem announced their independence from the federal government. The Fate Church quickly took over the politics, economy and military of these regions, which was obviously planned for a long time.

The Federation organized the army to suppress it as soon as possible, but returned in a defeat beyond everyone's expectations. There are rumors that they have seen ghosts at the borders of these autonomous regions.

In the afternoon, Qisi and Xu Yao arrived at the Tianxianglou Hotel booked by Lin Chen. Xu Yao floated on the ceiling, hiding her figure, and did not attract anyone's attention for the time being.

What Tse did not expect was that in addition to Lin Chen, there was also an old couple with gray hair in the private room. As soon as they saw Tse, they met: "You are Tse, right? Xiao Chen often talked about you to us at home. , said that in college you were the ones who helped him take care of him, so we just wanted to invite you to a meal..."

Lin Chen smiled bitterly from the side: "My parents heard that I want to treat you to a meal, so they must come with me..."

Tse understood the general, responded with a smile, and played the role of "university classmate".

With Lin Chen's nervous eyes, he sat down without changing his face and started chatting with Lin Chen's parents patiently and appropriately.

At the end of the conversation, even the embarrassing thing that Lin Chen fell into a mud pit when he was a child, washed his own clothes in order not to bother his parents, but was told by his classmates that he was peeing his pants.

Lin Chen laughed awkwardly, and Xu Yao, who was floating on the ceiling, also laughed out loud. As a player, Lin Chen could naturally see her. As soon as he looked up, he was startled and almost touched the glass to the ground.

Tsei held the glass and teased warmly: "Lin Chen is meticulous in everything he does at school. I didn't expect that he was so cute when he was a child."

There was a cheerful laughter in the box. Lin Chen's mother picked up a bag of red dates next to her and handed them to Qis, smiling and said, "This is grown by my aunt herself. It is sweeter than the one on the market. Take it back as a snack."

Tse took the red dates and thanked him, and suddenly noticed a sense of incongruity.

He has Lin Chen's soul leaves. Logically, he can get all the information about Lin Chen, but he doesn't know that Lin Chen's parents will come with him.

It’s like a filter is sandwiched in the process of cognition, and what you know and see are all filtered through invisible existence, and the missing information is fragmented and incomplete...

Tse had no appetite for a moment, so he found an excuse to go to the bathroom and walked out of the private room.

Behind him, Lin Chen followed him out with a look of anxiety.

"Brother Qi, I have a very strange feeling recently, as if someone is staring at me. As long as I appear in any place related to weird games, he can know my movements. I can only find you in reality... …”

Tsez stopped, looked back at him, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Lin Chen swallowed and said, "The day Fu Jue and I met in the Sunset Ruins, I heard your voice, and you said to me, 'My dear president, remember to wear gloves when shaking hands with dangerous people in the future. '

"I found it very strange afterwards, so I contacted you through the Soul Leaf and asked what was going on. You said that you were indeed passing by and dealt with Fu Jue's small tricks..."

Tse's eyes narrowed.

He had no impression of the two things Lin Chen said. He was sure that he had not taken the initiative to contact Lin Chen after the copy of "Beware of the Rabbit".

"Brother Qi, I don't know if I'm thinking too much, but I always feel that there is someone playing you, intercepting your contact with me, and even wanting to replace you..."

Lin Chen's voice was sensuous and worried, and his tone was strange: "Brother Qi, would you say there were two you?" (The end of this chapter)
