Chapter 130 Villar

Honestly, even my future self wouldn't do something so foolish.

So this must have been done by someone whose name is unknown but who everyone knows looks like me.

But this makes it easy to infer one thing.

——He mistook me for the protagonist.

They don't know that "we" are twins.

...So, am I dead?

So much so that my "brother", who doted on me so much, did not reveal my existence to anyone else.

Perhaps because my expression became a little revealing, Nilgara's expression became noticeably nervous. I closed my eyes and suddenly became even more curious about the "future" they were talking about.

——This is a world that is completely different from the previous world. It is made up of different worlds connected in series, and different timelines are intertwined. I am the only single line.

"What are we doing here?"

Wenwen asked from behind. She was still not used to the shark's overly large mouth, so her voice was still a little unclear.

“There is a special program in kindergarten.”

Nilgara pulled the hand of a cub that swam next to him and rubbed his head. His fish tail was more like an eel's without a huge tail fin, but he was very fast.

"Speed and water pressure training."

He looked at us and said, "The Sea God's altar is over ten thousand meters deep. Even traveling five thousand meters would be extremely taxing on your bodies. This is why many priests die on the journey—"

"So as long as you pass this training, I will let you go."

He looked at the cub next to him and said, "...&%￥# (Ask Teacher Dora to open the playroom)."

The little mermaid nodded and swam towards the white church.

"Come with me first."

Then we followed him to swim to the other side of the White Church, passed through two corridors, and in front of us appeared an independent black house, which was out of tune with the entire white building. The smell from it reminded me of something sticky and uncomfortable. There were already quite a few cubs waiting in front of the black house. I found that they all looked like slightly older children.

As we approached, the door of the black house slowly opened upwards. Through the faint light, we could see a long corridor inside, six rooms on the left, and four pivoting doors on the right.

There were no windows inside, only a lamp at the end of the corridor, which contained some luminous creature or plant, flashing a bright blue light in the dark.

In short, it is all negative and has a terrifying atmosphere.

Is this really a kindergarten?

How come there is such a scary place in your kindergarten——

"Since this is the first time, I won't be selecting the 'sacrifice' from among you. You can familiarize yourself with the rules of this game first."

As Nilgara spoke, he took out a few colorful shells and threw them up. Then, looking at the front and back and the direction of the shells, he selected four little mermaids from the cubs waiting at the door.

“&%￥%!#*&￥ (Come on, if you die this time you won’t be able to play with the Holy Son anymore).”

I:……

Wait a moment!

Wait a moment! ! !

Is this game really dead?

No, huh?

"They are a clan. Even if they die, they will be reborn from a fish egg after a period of time."

"A-Sang, you don't need to feel sad or sympathetic for other beings. Those emotions are useless to you."

…

Arinea's voice rang in his ears, and he finally decided not to pretend he wasn't there.

——I won’t think too much about what he says, because a lot of what these slices say are based on the experiences of my future self or my past self, and have little to do with me now.

One cannot discuss the right or wrong of an idea just because it has not happened yet.

Commonly known as, don't waste time.

So...what is that Holy Son?

"...That's something I, or rather the original body, didn't allow us to tell you."

…

Very good, here we go again, this kind of thing that is not allowed to be said.

I'd better just watch this horror game in front of me.

"This game is very simple. You will hear five bells ringing in different rooms. When the bells ring, the chosen 'sacrifice' must enter through the first door and exit through the fourth door before the second bell rings, otherwise they will die."

"Of course, before the bell rings, a being exactly like you will appear before the people in the room. You cannot be caught in the room."

"If you are caught, you will be thrown into the opposite door and must come out from the fourth door at the next bell."

…

It’s a very horror movie setting, and this death is real death.

"Is he really dead?" Yang Muqi asked.

"It's true," Nilgara said with a smile. "Of course, you can also choose to kill the person in the room who is like you. After all, the ones who entered before were all cubs, so their attack power was average. Our kindergarten doesn't encourage cubs to be so bloody."

I:……

It’s bloody at this time, isn’t it? ! !

"What's on the other side of the door?"

"There are cursed 'demons'. They can capture anyone and take their place. So, besides finding the exit within the time limit, you also have to remember not to be discovered by the 'demons.'"

"…What does this have to do with stress training?"

I started talking, this is purely to train courage and speed, right?

Nilgara: "This is the ocean. The faster you go, the greater the resistance you'll feel. Of course, that's what land dwellers say—" He swam in front of me. "For us, this ocean is our birthplace, so we merge with the water. There's no pressure or resistance."

The look in his eyes made me feel a little numb.

"You... should have already felt it. When you enter the water, you feel much more comfortable than when you are on land."

"So... this game room is actually designed to make the priests forget that they are 'underwater'. When facing life and death, the only thing they can think about is 'survival'."

"It's the instinct of all living things."

…

I understand. Now I’m starting to engage in idealism.

As long as I don't feel like I'm in the deep sea, pressure can't crush me.

As long as I don't feel like I'm in water, resistance can't stop me.

…

There are too many complaints, and I really need to say a few words about it.

I looked speechlessly at the pager that was still flashing a sea-blue light.

But it can't say, my poor and useless Tong.

——————————

The six of us each entered a room. I walked to the innermost room. There was nothing in this room, and it was bigger than I had imagined.

——A large flat of two to three hundred square meters, which cannot be seen from the outside.

There must be some kind of magic or curse on it.

The door was locked and the whole room was pitch black, but it didn't matter to me. I could see everything in the room and smell all the scents spreading from the sea water.

“Bang—”

The bell rang.

The water flow changed, and a huge monster appeared in front of me, rolling. The sea water in the entire room became somewhat solidified. It was something with a strange power, not enough to be called a "human" or a "creature".

I:……

Ah this.

Honestly, theoretically I should have started dodging pursuit.

but.

Who has ever seen an evil mermaid wearing a police uniform, with long black hair that looks like some kind of translucent tentacles swaying at the end, a lower body covered in twisting black tentacles, and a pair of starry eyes with tears that occasionally shed a few pearls, especially when this evil mermaid is someone you know—

No one would want to run away.

What the hell is this??

Why did Villar suddenly appear?

From what I heard from Nilgara, shouldn’t it be a situation where a clone of me appears?

Or is it because I’m already a clone, so I can’t clone anymore and can only be given someone who’s closest to me???

——No one told me it would be so easy to rescue him???

"Tsk."

Very good, I heard someone's voice and confirmed that it was Villar himself. I looked at the pager. Since many of the things I was going to say to Villar might be heard by him if I didn't pay attention, I decisively pressed the hang-up button on the pager.

Goodbye, stalker.

[Xiaoyu...?]

He finally realized that he seemed to have changed his position and looked up at me.

Two more black pearls fell from the corners of his eyes.

No, what did Arinea do to you? Why are you still crying? This is totally OOC!

…

I calmed myself down.

"Anyway, don't move." I gestured to him to stop him. "I'm afraid if you touch me, I'll be thrown to the door opposite."

I began to observe Villar objectively as he existed in this world.

Although his hair and lower body are covered with black tentacles, it is obvious that his race is a mermaid, probably influenced by me.

——Therefore, it can be judged that the protagonist’s true self in this world is definitely inextricably linked to mermaids.

I won’t say anything about the police uniform he’s wearing, it’s well-seasoned anyway.

Elsewhere, the faces are still familiar ones, but with a bit more fish flavor. The evil gods used to not have any marine features, after all, everyone’s systems are different, but now there are more of them and they are not ugly.

After all, it is a creation of God, and the evil god is also God, no problem.

The two of us now look like one black and one white, and it seems reasonable that he is the villain and I am the Son of God.

"Can you come back into my head?" I asked him.

He raised his hands to show me. There were two chains wrapped around his wrists. Although the chains looked broken, it was obvious that the broken ends were translucent, more like they had passed through space, but the restraints were still not released.

[Sorry, I didn't react at first and got caught. The key is with Arinea.]

His voice remained the same.

The surrounding sea water became turbulent because of his emotions.

"So do you know what identity you appear in this time?" I was so curious. He looked completely different from me.

[It's the sea god.]

ah?

[My identity was determined to be the sea god of this world, but it was stolen by Arinea.]

[He is very dangerous, Xiaoyu, you must be careful.]

…

I understand. Since Villar was not with me this time, he didn't know that the protagonist of this world had been sliced.

——And maybe he doesn't even know that this world is just a copy in the overlapping space.

No wonder Villar told me not to come when the phone line was first connected.

He really made me cry.

Love.

While we were talking, the bell had already rung three times.

I have to find a way to free him from the chain before the fifth bell rings, otherwise he will be pulled back again.

I quickly opened the points mall and now I have more than 7 million points. I am a big spender.

"Super Powerful Chainsaw", "Emergency Scissors", "Cursed Dissolver", "□□"...

I spent two million and bought a bunch of props that I thought might be useful.

Then try them one by one.

[…Xiaoyu, although I know you want to help me remove the chains, isn’t it a bit too much to bring out the guillotine?]

…

[This dissolved water is of the holy type, and I am of the evil god type—]

…

When I tried all the props, I couldn't get this to open.

What kind of chains did this Arinea kid use on Villar???

Are there any counterfeit or inferior products in the points mall? ! !

Then I looked at my backpack.

…

The title is "Crossdresser".

I looked at Verard, and he shuddered for some reason, and then another small pearl fell from the corner of his eye.

No, wait, are those little pearls tears or sweat???

Even the sweat of you sea gods turns into pearls?!

"Dear Veraer, is this chain binding you based on your own attribute, 'Sea God'?"

When I thought of this possibility, he fell silent.

[It's possible. As long as I am in this identity, this confinement will remain in effect forever.]

I laughed and handed him the prop.

"Then brother, how about changing your identity?"

"Crossdresser", used on Villar.
