As this thought flashed through Yuki's mind, he immediately heard many strange noises.

There were sounds of chatting, laughter, and the gurgling of the fountain. Oh, and that clicking sound sounded like the shutter of a SLR camera?

My head felt a little dizzy, and the sound that sounded like a market suddenly disappeared, accompanied by a few exclamations.

"What happened to them?"

"It's scary to be covered in blood."

"Call the police and call a doctor!"

......

It was neither Japanese nor Chinese, but he could understand it. Yuki opened his eyes with some confusion and looked around. His pupils contracted more violently than when he was facing the sea of ​​corpses.

This, this is...

In front of him was Sakurajima Mai, behind him was Hayasaka Ai, Li Dan and Fu Ge were sliding over along the cables above their heads, but the other scenes made him feel as if he was in a dream.

The sun cast its warm rays and the square was crowded with people. It was no longer ferocious or scary, with old and young people present. It was the most common leisurely scene on a weekend.

It’s just that everyone is watching, the flashes of mobile phone lights are flashing one after another, some people want to come up to help, and more people are whispering, pointing, and looking back -

An ancient castle stood outside the square. Its high walls, spires and gates were all exactly the same, except that there was no thick red fog and hideous zombies. Wasn't this the place they left?

Who am I? Where am I? Is this a dream or reality? ?

Even with Yuki's psychological quality, he was a little confused, not to mention Hayasaka Ai and others. This sense of separation was too serious, to the point of self-doubt.

The castle is obviously a tourist attraction, and the people around are normal. No one would really like to be food for zombies, right? So the question is, who was the monster just now, and where did it come from?

"Finally out!"

Li Dan, who had just landed, was full of excitement. Having experienced similar scenes, he was not surprised. The reincarnation game could not be understood with common sense, so he simply didn't think about anything.

"Don't think too much. This is also a dungeon. Do you really think you've gone home?" He patted Yuki's shoulder heavily and sighed, "Well done. It turns out that the castle is polar night. We will die if we stay inside. I thought so. It turns out that the solution is here. What clues did you find?"

This slap woke Yuki up and he realized that this was definitely not a dream because the soles of his feet were still hurting.

As Li Dan said, trying to understand the reincarnation game with common sense and logic will only drive yourself crazy.

"Me? It's nothing, just an interesting thing. How should I put it? Let me think about it..."

Yuki looked confused, as if he was frightened and didn't know how to speak. Li Dan became anxious and was about to urge him.

"Someone's out again, everyone, call the police!"

Just at this moment there was a burst of screams and exclamations from the crowd. He raised his head and saw Thomas also falling down. The teeth of the sword in his hand were covered with minced meat, and he looked like a murderer with murderous intent.

Only the housewife was left behind him; the office beauty had disappeared.

"Rachel was so unlucky. The zombies built a human ladder in front of her, and Thomas only had time to rescue Ms. Cathy." Li Dan saw Yuki's confusion and sighed softly. Since he had already escaped, he didn't plan to pursue any clues.

Instead of saving a beautiful woman who had a PY transaction with him, he pulled this sickly woman out? There were scratches on her waist and her clothes were torn.

This is consistent with the characteristics of being hugged by a zombie and then dragged out by force.

Yuki was stunned for a moment, but had no time to think about it, because the crowd started running away from screaming, and Thomas, like a bloodthirsty man, rushed up and cut several onlookers in half.

The extraordinary power caused a massacre, and the sound of sirens getting closer and closer made people feel cold.

not good!

Yuki suddenly realized that the crisis was not over. They did escape from the Eternal Night Castle and escaped from the zombies' pursuit, but being thrown into the modern order was just as dangerous.

The zombies' teeth are deadly, but gun bullets are even deadlier.

Li Dan also found something wrong. They were still in the copy. This was not the real Earth at all. Who knew what strange things would happen.

"You guys run quickly. I'll try my best to free Thomas from the influence of the chaos item. Grab the intercom and we'll reunite when the time comes!"

He acted decisively and went to meet Thomas while firing into the air.

Bang bang bang.

The crowd stimulated by the gunshots ran everywhere and blocked the police who came after hearing the news. Yuki dared not delay any longer and turned around and patted Hayasaka Ai and Sakurajima Mai on the back.

"Run."

"Thomas turned us into thugs?" Hayasaka Ai gasped for breath, feeling as if she had been running all night.

"He can't do anything about the negative effects of chaos items, or this dungeon won't let us be comfortable during the day." Yuki was mentally prepared that the reincarnation game would have a chance to breathe, but it wouldn't last the entire day.

He blended into the crowd and took off his bloodstained torn coat, but he knew it was useless because the three of them were almost stinking.

"Don't run too fast. Save some energy. Let's talk while we walk."

Yuki quickly looked around, passing over the fleeing crowd, like a scanner taking in important information.

There are cars opposite the square, two motorcycles are parked next to the sculpture, and there is a downward stone staircase on the south side of the square. The symbol on the sign should be the subway.

"Go that way!"

Yuki's heart moved, and he rushed over immediately, talking non-stop.

"You should have heard the prompt tone just now."

The moment I left the red fog, that strange voice rang in my mind again.

"Yes, it says that after surviving the first day, you can unlock the characteristics of your true self, but I haven't read it carefully yet." Hayasaka Ai spoke very quickly. She really didn't have time to study this new thing.

"Me too, but when I was running away just now, I took a look at the explanation and it said that I would be difficult to observe or something." Sakurajima Mai was a little confused.

Sure enough, she became Schrödinger’s bunny girl senior.

Upon hearing this, Yuki clenched his fists, a hint of excitement flashed across his eyes. The reason why he tried his best to protect the girl was not only because the latter was calm and mature and would not be a burden, but also because he wanted to gamble on this characteristic of his self.

After all, he had some "experience" and had studied it carefully when the personal panel was opened. He believed that there was a high chance that Mai Sakurajima would awaken "Youth Syndrome".

This is really useful. At least I know how to use this trait.

Yuki did not immediately make Sakurajima Mai familiar, or rather, he was completely focused on his own reminder sound, which was equally weird, but had something more than the other two.

[As a new player, lead a team through the first night and receive one reinforcement point as a reward]

[Player Yuki, ego characteristics unlocked——]

[You have obtained the characteristics of the self, the gift of the unknown].

Bloodthirsty Red Moon: Chapter 20: Characteristics of the Self, the Gift of the Unknown!

Da da da.

Tattered leather shoes tapped on the stairs. Yuki, holding a knife, led two beautiful girls into the subway station. From the signs on the wall, this was Line 7 of Hongyue City.

Whether it was the knife or the blood on the body, the fleeing people could not avoid them. Several security guards with anti-explosion batons rushed towards them, but when they saw Yuki with a frown and murderous look on his face, they hurriedly ran back.

That's right. Why risk your life for a few hundred dollars a month?

Knowing that they were still in the dungeon, Yuki had no intention of chasing them. This reincarnation game didn't have a points system, so there was no need to kill them indiscriminately.

He ran all the way to the bottom floor and slowed down when he saw the railroad tracks in the tunnel, but his frown never relaxed.

[I-Characteristics——Gift of the Unknown]

[At this stage, you will draw a gift every day. The gift is your unique cognition, which can be divided into concepts, characters, etc. It cannot be stored and is consumed once and is valid for one day.]

[Description: The world is what you know, and you are the world's unknown. If you make good use of this unknown, you will change everything.]

According to the game's explanation, the id trait is the embodiment of a certain characteristic or desire in the player's life. This is vividly reflected in Mai Sakurajima, and its authenticity can be confirmed.

Yuki didn't even bother to look at how to use it, he went straight to the description, and then his heart stopped.

This is very euphemistic. What's known and unknown? Isn't it just saying that I'm a time traveler?

'Why was it detected by the reincarnation game? Is this related to the diary I saw when I just crossed over? What consequences will this lead to?'

He turned his head to look at the gray subway tunnel, feeling as if something was staring at him. It was an indescribable feeling that seemed real and unreal.

Damn, it’s obviously a good thing, but why did it scare me into hallucinations?

While silently repeating "It's a good thing, don't scare yourself", he focused his attention on the present.

Features? Desire?

A medical student in two lifetimes, a player who is always ready to deal with extraordinary things, even if it is a skill that has been practiced hard, each one can become a blueprint for the characteristics of the self, but none of them are distinctive enough.

"I see. Being a time traveler is my greatest characteristic. It is precisely because I have not forgotten this identity that I am constantly prepared to meet challenges."

He somewhat understood that this characteristic was the embodiment of his identity as a time traveler, just like how he recognized Hayasaka Ai and Sakurajima Mai at first sight, while the latter knew nothing about him.

But the reason why he is not omniscient is very simple. For example, Yuki doesn’t know the details of Li Dan and Thomas.

"Hey, what are you standing there for?"

Yuki stood on the platform in a daze for more than ten seconds, and was patted on the back by Mai, forcing him to come back to reality.

"Jump down and walk along the wall."

As 'thugs', they certainly couldn't take the subway, so they jumped off, swinging their heads back and forth.

"Which way?" Hayasaka Ai asked.

Yuki looked back and forth, raised his hand and pointed to the left: "Is that the direction of the castle?"

"It seems so, but this is the terminal. There is a dead end ahead. Let's go to the right." Sakurajima Mai pointed to the bus stop sign on the wall. She noticed the detail when she was running just now.

"Have you ever calculated how deep this place is?"

Ah this.

Hayasaka Ai and Mai looked at each other and shook their heads. They didn't even have time to run away just now, so who would care about this?

"Forget it, let's go left." Yuki gave a strange smile, turned around and walked towards the tunnel on the left.

"Hey, wait a minute."

"Aren't you afraid that the dead end over there will be blocked by the enemy?"

The two girls didn't understand, but they didn't abandon Yuki. After hesitating for a moment, they followed him reluctantly and helped him find an excuse.

If the enemy pursues us, they will certainly search along the tunnel, so it will be more dangerous if we go to the right.

In fact, Yuki's idea was more complicated. When he was on the ground, he observed that the castle and the square were on the same plane, so he deliberately calculated the depth when entering the subway station.

'The error in depth between the basement and the second floor is less than five meters? Is this a coincidence?'

Yuki doesn't believe in coincidences. Just like at the beginning of the game, he had to go to the bottom to take a look. Without that look, even the bones would have been gnawed into powder.

In addition, just as Hayasaka Ai and Sakurajima Mai thought, he had to stop running and find a temporarily safe place to study the characteristics carefully.

The reincarnation game has no logic, but it attaches great importance to logic, just like an adventure without the guidance of a novice. He cannot defeat the Licker, and he cannot escape without eating the Red Moon's gift.

Risks and rewards are closely linked. He would rather take some risks and understand the role of his ego characteristics, which is the guarantee of survival in the next stage.

Following the railway tracks, we soon arrived at an open space. Judging from the complex railway tracks on the ground, this should be a temporary dispatching room with some temporary maintenance facilities next to it. The subway will turn around here and then run in the opposite direction.

There was no one there. Apparently all the staff had been scared away by the commotion on the ground, which saved Yuki the trouble of taking action. He quietly pushed open the door of the lounge with a knife and saw that it was empty inside, with several bottles of drinks spilled on the ground.

"It smells like Coke, but the label doesn't match." Sakurajima Mai picked it up and smelled it, with a depressed look on her face, "It seems that this is not Earth, even the technological development is weird."

The three of them had good observation skills and had noticed some anomalies long ago, such as the fact that the onlookers were clearly taking photos with their smartphones, but there was not a single surveillance camera in the subway.

"Hassaka, did you find anything?"

Yuki turned his head and looked at the blonde girl, who was sitting in a swivel chair typing on the keyboard at a very fast speed, opening and closing web pages one after another.

She searched for familiar information and found nothing.

"This is the city's intranet. I can't find any information other than this 'Blood Moon City'." Hayasaka Ai was equally disappointed. She glanced at Yuuki, who had an expressionless face. "You don't seem surprised at all? You haven't gotten over the feeling of being a fool yet, have you?"

A castle besieged by zombies is still within the acceptable range, but this copy is expanded to a city, with millions of people inside, each of whom is alive and well, and then creates consciousness and order, and satisfies physiological and psychological needs. This goes beyond the level of science fiction.

In front of Li Dan, Yuki did play a smart young man who burst out with infinite energy when forced into a desperate situation, but Hayasaka Ai knew that this man has been an expert since he joined the game, and in some aspects he is even more professional than veteran players.

"I'm not acting. For an existence that can send us here, it is a miracle in itself. Whether it is traveling through another world or creating a living city, it is all within its capabilities." Yuki spread his hands. This scene reminded him of The Matrix.

"Maybe we have been turned into data and stuffed into an inherent program, a bit like the virtual reality games that are so popular recently?"
