Infinite weird games

On the evening of March 21st, [Yu Han], a well-known strategy blogger in the game forum, published a new post.

# Summary of the copy of "Hopeless Sea" and the whole story of the Puppet Master incident #

[Floor 1 (Owner): I am Liu Yuhan, and I happened to experience the second half of the copy of "Hopeless Sea" with Chang Xu and Si Qi. Seeing that many people are paying attention to what happened after Chang Xu turned off the live broadcast, I will start with this part first. 】

[2nd Floor: How is Chang Xu? If the original poster is fine, he should be fine too, right? 】

[Floor 3 (Owner) replied to Floor 2: I'm sorry, Chang Xu was killed by the puppet master, and I couldn't save him. Next, I will truthfully tell you the whole story. 】

[Fourth Floor (Owner): There were initially three puppets in the dungeon, namely Lu Li, Ye Linsheng and Hans. Si Qi was controlled midway. I believe that everyone has a certain understanding of the effects of the Puppet Master's skills and has watched the live broadcast, so I won't go into details.

After Lu Li took the other players away from the island, the puppet master relaxed his control on Si Qi. Si Qi thought that the influence of the Puppet Master had left, so he found me and Chang Xu and planned to go to the altar and take the TE route to clear the level. Si Qi forced Chang Xu to shut down the live broadcast because he suspected that he and Xi La had colluded and would use the live broadcast to convey information. 】

[Floor 5: How could Chang Xu be related to Xi La? He cut off his little finger to prove his innocence! 】

[Floor 6 (Owner): This was Si Qi’s suspicion. I also thought it made sense at the time. Because there is a time trick on the island, people who leave the island at the wrong time will die. It is impossible for the puppet master not to know this. Lu Li left Chang Xu on the island, as if he deliberately wanted him to survive.

But what happened next proved that we were all seduced by the puppet master. Beside the altar, the puppet master once again controlled Si Qi, held me hostage, and forced Chang Xu to get something called the "Poseidon Scepter."

Chang Xu agreed, and after he handed the Poseidon Scepter to the puppet master, the puppet master killed him. Later, the puppet master wanted to kill me. Fortunately, Si Qi finally regained control of my body through props, and I was able to escape. 】

[Floor 7: So, is that asterisk definitely Siqi? 】

[Floor 8: How can someone escape from the control of the puppet master? Didn't the original poster get deceived? 】

[Floor 9 (the original poster) replied to Floor 8: I am very sure that Si Qi got rid of the control of the puppet master. He cut off the little finger of his right hand and proved it in the same way as Chang Xu. He has a main card on him, the effect of which is unknown, but it should have played a big role in his escape. 】

[Floor 10 (Owner): Another thing worthy of attention is that the puppet Lu Li owns the emblem of the Kyushu Guild, and after investigation, it was found that he is indeed a member of the Kyushu Guild. At the same time, the puppet master was very familiar with Chang Xu's character, as if he had known him before. I suspect that many guilds have been infiltrated by Xila, and I hope all guilds will investigate themselves. 】

Under Qisi's control, Liu Yuhan described in a post what happened in the second half of the copy of "Hopeless Sea" in a distorted way, which helped Qisi get rid of some suspicions.

By the way, the Jiuzhou Guild was dragged into the water and everyone in other guilds was in danger, thus muddying the water and diverting conflicts.

Liu Yuhan's account reputation has always been good, and her remarks were well-founded. No one raised any questions for a while, either offering words of comfort or expressing condolences to Chang Xu.

Under the deliberate guidance, the players all pointed their fingers at the Kyushu Guild and demanded an explanation from it with righteous indignation.

It seems that if there were no Kyushu emblem, the players would not trust Lu Li easily, and the final tragedy would not be caused...

All this was completely within Qisi's expectation. He chose to collect Liu Yuhan's soul because of the girl's good reputation.

Although he doesn't care about gossip, he also knows the power of public opinion and the right to speak is very important in modern society. If used properly, it can avoid a lot of trouble.

Of course, some people inferred that Ziss was the anonymous MVP.

Zeiss has ignored this, neither admitting nor denying it, leaving it up to you to make wild guesses, since there is no evidence anyway.

Amid the chaos, a new voice emerged.

Some people complained that Chang Xu turned off the live broadcast midway, causing the points they invested to be wasted; some complained that Chang Xu had no brains and Tianhu played poorly at the beginning; and some people upvoted a post with malicious speculation:

# I suddenly felt that Chang Xu was actually a bit suspicious #

[Floor 1 (Owner): Do you think there is a possibility that we are all misled by stereotypes? Who said that the person running the live broadcast couldn't be someone from the Silas Guild or a massacre player?

As soon as Chang Xu entered the dungeon, he deliberately followed Si Qi, and then Si Qi was parasitized by Puppet Silk. How could such a coincidence happen?

Moreover, is Chang Xu really dead? Didn't Mr. Yuhan say that the main part of the copy of "Hopeless Sea" is a dream? If you die in a dream, you will not necessarily die. Maybe it's just a trick. 】

Zisi always pays attention to relevant public opinions and saw this post immediately.

He laughed again, with genuine pleasure.

While he was laughing, he was writing furiously in his notebook entitled "What a Miserable Death", his face twisted into a strange expression, as if he was extremely happy and sad.

"Chang Xu, you are so miserable, really... Look, you are dead like this. At this time, who will say a word to you?"

…

In the congealed darkness, Chang Xu sat cross-legged, staring straight into the void in front of him.

He didn't know how long he had been sitting there. Time was hard to estimate, space was untouchable, and only the darkness symbolizing nothingness followed him like a shadow, immersing him in boundless silence.

Is this death?

Everything has no entity, even the vivid pain before no longer exists. All the meaning, reality, concepts, and other things that can prove "being alive" itself disappear at a certain moment, as if they had never existed...

"I can't beat the puppeteer, he killed me, so I died."

The matter is very simple, so simple that Chang Xu is a little depressed.

For many years, he has been accustomed to solving problems with force, thus avoiding considering those unsolvable paradoxes.

This is the first time he has been frustrated in terms of force, and his safety expectations have been broken, so he can't help but seriously review the details behind the incident.

But soon he found that this matter was absolutely unsolvable for him.

Unless he opened his eyes and knew who the three puppets were in advance and excluded them in advance, otherwise when Qi Si and Liu Yuhan were controlled, he would have to use the Sea God Scepter to exchange their lives.

But he is not a god, how can he know the overall situation at the beginning?

The layout of the puppeteer in the later stage of the copy is a complete conspiracy. He knew it was a trap, but he had to drill into it.

As for giving up Qi Si and Liu Yuhan, just wake up from the dream of the hopeless sea...

In Chang Xu's opinion, it is better to die immediately than to leave his companions to live in the world.

After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't figure it out, so Chang Xu simply stopped thinking about it.

So, he stared at a certain place in front of him silently and continued... to be distracted.

The black space changed at some point, and the bizarre fog rolled into various shapes in front of his eyes. A pair of golden eyes opened in the void, and the cold sight made people feel uncontrollably dangerous.

A vague voice came from the sky, and it seemed to ring in the bottom of my mind: "Chang Xu, I gave you the scepter that symbolizes power. You were going to be invincible with your supreme power, but you gave it to others because of false fear. I am very disappointed in you." Chang Xu suddenly raised his eyes, and his black pupils stared at the golden eyes: "Who are you?" The voice did not answer, but continued to talk to itself: "Fortunately, the rules discovered the hand that secretly reached out to the gambling table. I can still act as the referee to maintain fairness, and promptly erase the mistakes caused by that guy's cheating, and restore the position of the chess pieces to before the game started." The mysterious statement, like all oracles from ancient times to the present, is unclear. Chang Xu asked: "What is the gambling table? Who cheated? What do chess pieces mean?"

"You don't need to know these. You only need to know that everyone will die. After the end of the Doomsday Judgment, when the final ending comes, it will be the real rebirth and apocalypse." The voice in the void said coldly, "I once erased part of your memory for your dedication. Now I will return them to you. I hope you can give a different answer when we meet again."

A golden beam of light fell from the sky and enveloped Chang Xu.

The noise suddenly became a cacophony, and malicious words mixed together, which could be heard clearly in the ears.

"Stay away from him, he is a monster! Anyone who gets close to him will be unlucky!" Exaggerated tone, crisp voice belonging to a child.

"He has a problem with his brain. He talks to himself in the air all day long. I heard from the aunts that there are ghosts around him!"

The old memories that had long been forgotten were repainted with colors. Chang Xu straightened his body reflexively and frowned slightly.

He looked around and didn't see the source of the sound. Those sharp words seemed to come from the depths of his mind.

"That big fool looks scary, but he never talks back. If you don't believe me, go and try it!"

"New here, go and scold him a few times to prove that you are not a coward, then we will treat you as one of our own."

Whispering, telling secrets, the tone, obviously not deliberately memorized, but once stimulated, it will generate complete information.

Chang Xu remembered that when he was in the orphanage, he was ostracized for a period of time because he was born with the ability to see ghosts.

He has never understood the complex emotional mechanisms such as hostility and isolation. Things that cannot threaten his life are unnecessary for him to care about. So he just kept silent and found a corner where no one was around to quietly fiddle with small gadgets such as the Rubik's Cube.

Perhaps because of his indifference, the children in the orphanage gradually became more and more serious and began to treat him as a must-defeat boss at the end of the level, as if daring to provoke him was proof of courage.

They broke his things, threw garbage into his food, and even gathered a group to beat him up...

In order to keep his life from being disturbed, he could only beat up those guys who didn't know what he was capable of, and beat up those who didn't obey more times...

In short, he finally got a safe and peaceful environment as he wished.

The light spots were looming in the void, and a series of voices that did not exist in memory sounded vaguely, with all characteristics erased, but unusually cold and clear.

"If it is cultivated well, it will be our winning card; if something goes wrong, it won't be a problem, he is just an orphan..."

"He looks easy to fool, a psychologist will intervene, and there won't be too much problem..."

A scene rose up in front of him, as if a brush was painting a picture from bottom to top.

Silver-white alloy walls, blazing white lights, a room with only a small window... It was the interior of the Weird Investigation Bureau.

Chang Xu's pupils shrank slightly.
