[Player confirms using Golden Apple Theater ticket instead of next random dungeon]
The Golden Apple Theater copy has been locked.
Gu Xinghe was still somewhat shocked when the electronic mechanical voice of the game system rang in his ears.
From this perspective, players are not only passively and randomly participating in game instances.
You can also actively unlock dungeons by obtaining certain key items yourself.
Of course, not just any item can be used as a key item to unlock game dungeons.
This was the first time Gu Xinghe had ever heard such a notification sound.
However, if we want to explore whether there are differences between this designated copy and the copy randomly selected by the system.
Only Gu Xinghe, after experiencing it himself, could know a thing or two about it.
But Gu Xinghe believed without a doubt that Teresa would never want to harm him.
Judging from the act of a woman giving a theater ticket to a man...
What Teresa was trying to say was more like she wanted to...go on a date with him?
After putting away the envelope containing the theater tickets, Gu Xinghe walked out of the private room.
Before leaving, he glanced at the table that had been filled with various kinds of wine the night before, but was now empty.
I had a dreamless night.
Apart from the first night, Gu Xinghe's sleep was not disturbed at night.
Because his job was always easy, Gu Xinghe woke up very early today as well.
It was the quietest time of day in the tavern.
Due to working hours, almost all the pub staff were resting in their dormitories at this time.
Gu Xinghe walked out of the room and headed down to the tavern lobby.
The spacious hall was deserted, filled with a tranquil atmosphere completely different from when it was open for business in the evening.
The scene and atmosphere at this moment were undoubtedly similar to those when Gu Xinghe and the others first entered the tavern.
And at this moment, he stood in the place.
It was also the wall of bottles that left a deep impression on all players when they first entered the tavern.
That was a dazzling "glass wall" made up of rows and rows of bottles of liquor displayed behind the bar.
He quietly examined the bottles of wine, which refracted a beautiful light under the illumination.
In his dormitory, Gu Xinghe once found a diary.
According to the diarist, he once stole wine from a tavern and sold it.
Based on this information, Gu Xinghe also tried to check the wine cellar for any unusual items, but found nothing.
But in the Tavern of Doom, besides the underground cellar, this is undoubtedly the place with the most stored wine.
Compared to a well-guarded wine cellar, this place is undoubtedly a better place to steal wine.
In front of such a stunning wall of bottles, it would be hard for anyone to notice if one or two bottles were missing.
In fact, most people simply regard the bar and the bottles of liquor behind it as a large decoration.
Perhaps a small number of people are unaware that what is displayed here is alcohol that can be drunk.
Similarly, Gu Xinghe realized that the so-called "mirror" did not simply refer to a mirror.
It also refers to anything that possesses the qualities of a mirror.
For example, a clear water surface.
For example... this entire wall is filled with glass wine bottles.
In fact, what taverns have in abundance is all kinds of alcohol.
At the time, the diarist was suspected of going insane after seeing his reflection in the mirror while stealing alcohol.
And the feeling of being spied on in the private room the night before last was not an illusion.
The tables in the private rooms were also laden with wine.
At this moment, Gu Xinghe stopped in front of this "mirror".
Close your eyes and try to listen to "its" voice again.
Why is Gu's live stream black again?
Don't worry, this is just standard practice for a pro.
[Is this player currently working on a dungeon boss?]
I remember the last instance was like that too; it recovered after a while.
It feels different from listening to the voices of ordinary people.
Gu Xinghe felt as if his thoughts were being stretched and extended infinitely.
This place exists somewhere between reality and illusion.
Gu Xinghe opened his eyes, and just like in his previous dream, all he saw was a vast expanse of white.
But unlike the hazy dreams of the past.
At this moment, Gu Xinghe could clearly see that there were mirrors standing there one after another.
His figure was reflected in the mirror, and after being reflected by multiple mirror surfaces, countless mirror images were formed.
It was as if countless versions of himself existed simultaneously, making it difficult for him to distinguish between the real passage and the mirror.
These countless mirrors fit together perfectly, forming a huge, seemingly endless mirror maze.
Even, if you stay here for a long time, a feeling of dizziness that is hard to shake off will naturally arise.
Gu Xinghe reached out and touched the mirror, but his hand touched nothing but emptiness.
The mirror clearly reflects his image, yet he cannot touch it.
Perhaps, every mirror here is an illusion that doesn't actually exist.
This vast maze of mirrors seems to be a realm constructed by an unknown entity.
Gu Xinghe suddenly felt that the characteristics of the mirror in front of him seemed quite familiar.
As if struck by a sudden inspiration, surging black mist tentacles emerged from his shadow.
Like a collision between different domains.
The tentacles are his hands and feet extending outwards.
Gu Xinghe angrily shattered the illusion before him.
Countless illusory mirrors were shattered, leaving only fragments scattered on the ground.
It was as if the entire illusory world had been shattered, and the originally bright and clear environment had disappeared.
Everything around revealed its true nature—
It was a dimly lit but not pitch-black corridor.
Gu Xinghe stepped into this long passage, heading towards an unknown destination.
The dimly lit corridor did not seem scary.
On the contrary, the walls are adorned with a series of highly artistic "paintings".
There is no art more captivating than real life.
Those paintings were undoubtedly scenes from various parts of the tavern being played in real time.
A music blogger who was cyberbullied and accused of using post-production audio editing became discouraged and developed a dislike for singing.
The middle-aged man, suffering from an incurable disease, became taciturn and lost all hope.
A customer, claiming to have received insider information from mysterious sources, boasted to his companion.
Gu Xinghe saw the scenes of other players in the tavern rooms and also heard the various pieces of information that had been circulating in the tavern before.
Various messages, whether unintentional or intentional, are revealed.
Various messages are being exchanged and transmitted within the tavern.
At this moment, they are all gathered here.
Using the "mirror" as a medium, it observes the entire tavern and records and organizes the information circulating within it.
The paintings on the corridor stopped spreading, and a room with only a mirror standing in front of Gu Xinghe appeared.
Clearly, he has arrived at his destination.
"Welcome, boss!"
At this moment, a light and cheerful voice rang in Gu Xinghe's ears.
