Chapter 55: I Knew It Earlier
The first ten or so photos and the last two photos have similar environments, with dim lighting and accumulated dust, but the key point in the center of the perspective has a different style.
The things that shouldn't appear in this scene and the simple expression composed of crude lines easily pulled Song Ziyi and Liu Guoqiang out of their previous tension, and their faces were full of confusion.
Even the other staff members who were watching looked at each other suspiciously when they saw this scene.
"If it were a person, that would make more sense," Lin Han thought for a moment and continued, "but no matter how hard I think about it, even if I try to apply the appearance of ghosts I've encountered before, I can't imagine what a person would look like in this situation. I always think of this vegetable, and it becomes clearer and clearer in my memory."
In an environment where one's nerves were tense and there was no place to relax, suddenly seeing a cabbage that shouldn't be there, the panic he was feeling would probably disappear in an instant, and absurdity and disbelief would be the only feeling Lin Han had at that time.
At this moment, Lin Han was indeed in that mood, but he felt something was wrong.
At that time, he was very desperate and frightened. He was immersed in the "haunted house" copy and was extremely painful for the final experience.
Memories can be revisited and recalled again and again, and emotions are not easily forgotten either.
Lin Han's memories and emotions don't match, which is what puzzles him.
Song Ziyi and Liu Guoqiang were equally confused, but they were more aware than Lin Han that something was wrong.
The main focus of the New World is authenticity. This authenticity is mainly to allow players to better immerse themselves in the game, but it is also to protect the players' mental health. Therefore, adjustments need to be made in places that may cause psychological trauma to the players, making everything real yet not so real. For example, in terms of injuries, minor injuries are retained and major injuries are simulated.
But there was no such adjustment in the copy that Lin Han experienced. Otherwise, the ghost chasing him would have been seen as a mosaic full of flashes, and all the insects and broken bones would have been covered tightly. In fact, the appearance of the ghost in the photo made Song Ziyi's hair stand on end.
According to what Lin Han said, if someone had half of his body covered in the filth from the ghost, even his face was affected. Someone with poor mental strength would have collapsed at the beginning. But Lin Han was able to wash the clothes with a calm face, which showed that he was quite stable.
If Song Ziyi was standing in Lin Han's position, he would probably use his ultimate move as soon as he saw clearly, but if he couldn't use his ultimate move... Song Ziyi didn't know that in such an environment, you couldn't know what you would do just by thinking about it afterwards. No one knew how you would perform unless you stood in that position.
The plot at the beginning of the copy is already like this, and the scene effects will not be temporarily changed later unless there are some uncontrollable problems - for example, as Lin Han said, it would be more reasonable if it was an individual.
Unlike Lin Han who couldn't imagine the scene after repeated thinking, Song Ziyi and Liu Guoqiang could easily imagine the scene and crush a person with ease, which was definitely more capable of destroying a person's psychological defenses than the previous hideous ghost.
Just thinking about it made them slow down their breathing and feel a little nauseous because of their own imagination.
This is just imagination, but if Lin Han really witnessed it...
Liu Guoqiang looked up and saw the young man sitting on the sofa, holding the two photos and talking to Song Ziyi. He was in good spirits and did not seem to be affected by the game. He was even a little excited.
Perhaps noticing Liu Guoqiang's gaze, he turned around and asked, "What's wrong, Director Liu?"
Liu Guoqiang waved his hand: "It's okay, it's okay."
Lin Han just glanced at Liu Guoqiang, and after getting a response, he immediately turned back to continue talking to Song Ziyi. Because of excitement, his body leaned forward slightly, his speech speed increased, and his face was a little red with excitement.
Liu Guoqiang quietly gestured to the assistant beside him, indicating that he should report the current situation in a unified manner and not wait until he left to sort it out. Song Ziyi glanced at him and tacitly did not mention any exclusive customer service.
This is no longer something that can be solved by dedicated customer service. After the last incident, Song Ziyi also found that the customer service he thought was good was actually not of much use. Lin Han’s problem is not serious, because he himself has no problem, but it can be said to be serious and very serious, because the copy he entered is inconsistent with the information disclosed by the New World, which requires official intervention.
It would be most reasonable to hand it over to the New World Strategy Center and let them contact New World and handle the matter.
And now, what they have to do is to let Lin Han stay outside until the New World gives a reply.
It is difficult to guarantee that Lin Han will not be arranged to enter a new copy after entering the new world again. Although according to Lin Han, he should have passed the college's entrance examination, he cannot be 100% sure of it, so he will treat it as if he failed. Moreover, Lin Han cannot quit the copy after entering it, which is not a good thing for them.
For Lin Han's safety, staying in the outside world and staying away from the new world for a short period of time is the best option for Lin Han.
Although Lin Han himself still felt a little regretful, he was not someone who could not distinguish between priorities, so naturally he would not refuse.
Song Ziyi's qualifying match would not start for a few days, so he did not go back to the game and wait. Instead, he planned to stay with Lin Han first, just like last time.
Liu Guoqiang's men were already packing up to evacuate. He himself had just left in a hurry, and the crowded living room was empty again. Only Lin Han and Song Ziyi, who was lying on the sofa, were left.
There were more than a dozen photos on the coffee table next to them. The people from the New World Strategy Center did not take them away when they left, so they could export them again after they returned. These were left for Lin Han.
Song Ziyi's eyes fell on it, and after a while he said dejectedly: "If I had known, I wouldn't let you play."
Song Ziyi really likes New World. He couldn't wait to enter the game from the first day it was launched. Then, he naturally moved forward with the best script, became a hidden character pursued by everyone, gradually improved his strength, and established connections with relevant departments. Coupled with the special nature of the New World rewards, it is hard not to say that he is contributing to the country and society. Even his two old men don't say that he just plays all day long, and they still praise him a few words. Now he is on the list, which can be regarded as bringing glory to the country.
There are exactly 1,000 people on the New World server-wide list, which seems like a lot, but when divided by each country and planet, it's pitifully small. There are only five people from Blue Star on the list, and he ranks second, barely making it into the top 100. The one above and the three below are all in the army. In order to avoid internal fighting, he always avoids the dungeon where his own people are, so they can't meet each other. Communication depends entirely on the New World Strategy Center, and the relationship is not too close.
The person who has the best relationship with him is naturally Lin Han. God knows how much he wants to take his brother to play the game. He has been thinking about this since the first day he drew the hidden character.
Although Lin Han looks easy to talk to, he has a very stubborn temper. If he says he is not interested, then he really is not interested. Song Ziyi's lobbying for half a year has no effect at all. It was only because Lin Han's company went bankrupt that he truly saw the new world, which gave Song Ziyi the opportunity to take advantage of it.
The gift from New World just happened to solve Song Ziyi's urgent need. At that time, he was secretly happy. After all, what belongs to his brother is his own. There is no need to distinguish between them. If there is any benefit, he will take advantage of it. But now...
Knowing that this was the kind of game Lin Han was playing in the new world, Song Ziyi's heart was hanging in the air, and he wanted to dig out the two stones and return them.
Thousands of words were combined into one sentence "If I had known earlier", Song Ziyi had a dejected face, which made Lin Han laugh.
"What are you doing? This isn't like you anymore."
Lin Han kicked him, and Song Ziyi subconsciously wanted to kick back, but he raised his leg halfway and silently retracted it. He looked at Lin Han with bated breath, then turned his head towards the crack in the sofa and said in a muffled voice, "Forget it, you don't understand."
He sniffed before turning around. Lin Han saw that his eyes were still a little red and widened his eyes. The next second he squeezed over and twisted his head apart.
"Are you going to cry? Don't scare me!"
Song Ziyi was forced into a corner and was forced to fight back. The two of them fought fiercely on the sofa. Finally, Lin Han successfully pulled Song Ziyi out and found that Song Ziyi was almost crying. Why did he say almost? Because Song Ziyi wiped away his tears during the fight.
Lin Han: “…”
Not really.
At this time, Lin Han seemed to have forgotten that he was also crying in the copy with tears and snot all over his face, and was scared to death. He also swore that he would never play this crappy game again, but in front of Song Ziyi... Song Ziyi was not the only one who wanted to show off in front of his brothers, Lin Han also wanted to.
So, even if Lin Han actually still remembered his performance in the copy, Song Ziyi didn't know that the photos he saw were all from Lin Han's perspective, so how could he know the expression on Lin Han's face? The only photo of Lin Han looking in the mirror showed that Lin Han, who was already frightened at that time, looked particularly calm. At this moment, Lin Han could pretend however he wanted.
When he thought of the cabbage, Lin Han knew clearly that he was just playing a game. He even thought that if he had seen the cabbage earlier, even if everything else remained the same, he might not have behaved so poorly.
After summarizing, Lin Han spread his hands seriously and said, "Really, it's not that scary."
Song Ziyi didn't believe it: "Really?"
Lin Han: "I'd be lying to you if I were a puppy!"
Song Ziyi uttered a "huh" and made a quick decision: "Lin Gou!"
Lin Han: “…”
After all, they have been together for so long that he really can't hide it from Song Ziyi.
Perhaps because he was afraid that Lin Han would rush over and fight with him again, Song Ziyi curled up on the sofa and kicked his legs nervously. Lin Han ignored him and sat down next to him.
"It's actually not that bad. After all, I've always had someone protecting me, and I've never died once."
When he was on the verge of death, there was always someone who rescued him first. The same thing happened at the last moment of the "Haunted House" copy. Someone covered his eyes.
It was because of those hands and the sudden restricted vision that Lin Han did not trust his own memory and tried to make the scene plausible.
It's really a cabbage. Even if it is fried into pickled cabbage in front of him, Lin Han will not be touched at all, unless it is really a person.
Only if that person is really a human would he cover his eyes in an attempt to hide the truth.
And that familiar sigh...
Alfred.
Song Ziyi interrupted Lin Han's contemplation: "Are you really okay?"
"Um."
"Then tell me again, starting from the beginning."
"good."
"Wait while I order takeout. Want a drink?"
"Okay, drink some."
