149 Illusion Cruise 2
◎Life and Death Test◎
After finishing the introduction, Xiao Wu stood up and returned to the driving seat to check the route. She looked at the sea through the transparent glass. The sky outside was gloomy, and dark clouds covered the entire sea. The wind and waves on the sea were gradually rising, and there was a tendency for them to spread.
Past memories revived in Xiaowu's mind. It was also a gloomy day like this. The waves rolled into the cabin. The deep blue sea water swept away the young sailor on the deck like a man-eating demon. The horrifying scene seemed to reappear before his eyes.
"Oh no! There's going to be a big wave!" Xiao Wu suddenly woke up from her memories. She gripped the steering wheel of the cruise ship and shouted to everyone, "Hurry up and find something to hold on to, to prevent injuries from the bumps on the ship!"
As he finished speaking, a huge wave rose up on the sea, and the strong wind brought the waves to hit the ship. No one could react in time, and they stumbled. Zhou Jiayi and Bai Tang fell directly from the soft chairs to the ground.
"Ah!" Bai Tang screamed in pain, covering her right hand joints. Her bones fell heavily on the cabin floor, and the impact made her speechless for a while.
The waves came so fiercely that they had no chance to react. There was nothing else to cling to in the cabin except the armrests on both sides of the soft chairs.
At this moment, you can’t worry about keeping distance. There are four handrails in total. The most important thing is to grab a handrail to survive the storm.
Zhou Jiayi endured the severe pain all over his body and pulled Bai Tang up from the ground. He glanced around and then quickly took her to the upper left handrail and held her tightly, "Hold on tight! Don't let go."
Bai Tang held the stainless steel handrail tightly with both hands, and the pain in her arms caused beads of sweat to appear on her forehead.
When making this decision, Zhou Jiayi was struggling in his heart. What if the Bai Tang in front of him was not Bai Tang but Guiyi in disguise? The two shared a handrail. If Bai Tang was Guiyi, he could die at any time, and he would die quietly.
But he couldn't let go! Bai Tang's face was no different from before. Her pain didn't seem fake, but the true feelings of a human being after suffering a blow.
That was a living person! Zhou Jiayi couldn't let Bai Tang fend for himself. With the violent shaking of the cruise ship, Bai Tang might have crashed to death.
Sang Mian grabbed the railing next to Fourth Brother at the first moment. In fact, Fourth Brother was not close to her, and was even the farthest one from her among the four railings.
Fourth brother was also frightened by her. The honest middle-aged man's eyes widened. It was obvious that he didn't understand why Sang Mian came straight towards him.
"I want to ask you something." Sang Mian lowered his voice, "When did you meet Shangguan Fan?"
Fourth Brother's brain was stuck. He opened his mouth to answer the question, and after hesitating for a long time, he said, "I met him in the game hall. He is a writer."
"Shangguan Fan came to Weird Game four years ago. How many years ago did you meet him?" Sang Mian's thoughts became clearer. "Since you even remember his profession, you wouldn't have forgotten the time, right? He is a player of the Eternal Night Cult. Why did I tell you that he is a writer?"
She was eager to know Shangguan Fan. Shangguan Fan gave her a very strange feeling. She seemed to know this person, but she forgot the specific details of the acquaintance. Was it in the dungeon? No, she remembered every player in the dungeon, except for a man named Shangguan Fan.
In the game lobby? She basically stayed in the guild, and the number of times she went to the lobby could be counted on her fingers. Shangguan Fan was a player of the Eternal Night Cult, so it was impossible for her to have seen Shangguan Fan.
So... who is Shangguan Fan? Is he really a player? Or is he a character added by the weird game that tampered with their memories?
His existence is too reasonable. It exists briefly in everyone's memory, and it is too reasonable.
The fourth brother stammered, "I forgot, I really can't remember...but I really saw him."
Sang Mian sneered, "Yeah, of course you've seen the characters that were forcibly added to your mind."
There was no sense of incongruity in Shangguan Fan joining. If Sang Mian had lived in the weird game for many years, she would also think that Shangguan Fan really existed, but she had only experienced it for one year, and she believed that her memory would not be blurred.
"You've never seen Shangguan Fan. He doesn't exist, right?"
A thunderbolt seemed to flash through the fourth brother's mind. In the evil spirit-level copy, he couldn't trust anyone, not even his own memory. How could he be sure that Shangguan Fan really existed? After realizing this, the memory of Shangguan Fan in his mind faded away like a tide.
Thinking back, I couldn't find any trace of Shangguan Fan's existence!
[There is a weird one among you, players are advised to clear it as soon as possible]
Shangguan Fan is clearly placed in front of everyone, and among those with disordered memories, who can find the weird thing?
When the cabin began to shake, Xia Qing quickly grabbed the handrail beside him, and Shangguan Fan also came over and grabbed the handrail.
Xia Qing moved to the side, leaving half the space for Shangguan Fan.
"Brother, what a coincidence that you are here too." Xia Qing exclaimed. Wait...why did she say you were here too? Has she met this brother before?
Xia Qing thought about it and felt that she must have seen him before. She had an impression of Shangguan Fan.
"Yes, what a coincidence." Shangguan Fan said coldly and emotionlessly, "Nice to meet you."
Xia Qingxin said, "Brother, are you crazy?" All players could be weird, and he said, "I'm glad to see you?" Another child tortured by a weird game.
Another wave hit, and Xia Qing felt a chill on her back. At this moment, she was extremely envious of Sang Mian's coat. It must be that Sister Sang had foresight! She knew that the dungeon would be cold, so she brought a coat with her.
Shangguan Fan stared at Xia Qing's back with cold eyes, and suddenly he smiled. If Xia Qing looked back at this moment, she would definitely see Shangguan Fan's distorted face and white arms slowly approaching her.
Unfortunately, she didn't look back. Xia Qing felt something touching her waist, lightly, tingling and with a cold breath.
Xia Qing: "..." There was only Shangguan Fan behind her... So Shangguan Fan was touching her? !
Xia Qing, who has lived for twenty years, had his worldview refreshed. How could Shangguan Fan still have the mood to take advantage of him in the dungeon? What a pervert among perverts!
I can't stand it! I absolutely can't stand it! Xia Qing was furious. She grabbed the handrail with one hand, turned around and slapped Shangguan Fan, and angrily said, "You are so brave! How dare you touch me? I won't be named Xia if I don't beat you to a pulp today!"
Shangguan Fan: “?” Sister, is it possible that I am not touching you, but I want to kill you?
Xia Qing shouted at Sang Mian like a pig being slaughtered: "Sister Sang! He touched me! Is this something a human being would do?"
Everyone looked at Shangguan Fan with speechless eyes. This guy looked like a decent person, but he actually touched a girl behind her back. If it wasn't in a dungeon, he would have been sent to the police station long ago.
Sang Mian felt mixed emotions. She never expected Xiao Qing to be so fierce! She came up and gave Guiyi a big fight.
She coughed guiltily twice: "Xiao Qing...what if...what if he really isn't a human being?"
“…”
I'm not afraid of perverts taking advantage of me, I'm just afraid of the air suddenly becoming quiet.
Xia Qing understood it immediately and sadly, she turned her head stiffly and looked at Shangguan Fan.
"Hehe... I've been discovered..." Shangguan Fan's facial expression began to distort, and his facial features were swallowed up like a whirlpool. His dark white hands grabbed straight towards Xia Qing's face.
Xia Qing gasped and fell backwards: "Ahhh! He is weird!!"
"Get out of the way, little girl!" At the critical moment, the fourth brother roared and rushed towards Shangguan Fan who had changed. His aura changed extremely strongly at this moment, and his heavy body pushed Shangguan Fan against the wall with a loud "bang"!
Then the fourth brother lifted Shangguan Fan onto his shoulders with both arms and ran out the door.
Sang Mian quickly opened the cabin door, and the next second Shangguan Fan was thrown onto the deck like garbage.
Shangguan Fan, who had regained his mobility, jumped up from the deck and rushed straight towards the gate. He even wanted to get back into the cabin!
"Close the door! Close the door quickly!" Xiao Wu said anxiously.
Sang Mian quickly closed the hatch again. After she finished everything, her back was soaked with cold sweat. It was too scary! When Shangguan Fan changed, everyone saw the strange energy value above his head.
Ninety-nine points! Only one step away from being an evil spirit! He is fully capable of killing everyone in the cabin!
"Is... is it over?" Xia Qing fell to the ground, looking embarrassed: "Will he... will he come back?"
Xiao Wu looked at the deck through the only glass in the driving position and said, "He's gone. There are big waves outside. I don't know if he was washed away by the waves."
Fourth Brother’s heavy breathing echoed in the cabin. Looking closely, his hands were still shaking.
The danger level of the evil spirit-level copy was completely beyond Sang Mian's imagination. Since boarding the ship for more than 20 minutes, everyone has experienced a life-and-death test.
"Oh! It's okay!" Zhou Jianyi tried to liven up the atmosphere: "It's just a monster. It must have been swept away with such big waves outside. We are safe now!"
Is the danger really over?
Sang Mian quickly helped Xia Qing up. She felt that it was not that simple. The main task was to return to land successfully. Although Guigui was driven out of the cabin, no one could guarantee that he would not be swept away by the waves, so they were all in danger before reaching land.
The wind is still.
The sea was calm as if nothing had happened.
Xiaowu was surprised by the change in weather, so she switched the boat to autopilot mode.
"This damn weather is so weird." Xiao Wu adjusted his cap and muttered, "I've been out to sea with my uncle dozens of times before, but I've never seen such weird weather. The wind stops just like that."
No one spoke.
"What are you staring at?" Xiao Wu crossed his arms and sneered, "A monster scared you like this? Can you be more creative?"
"I was just thinking, even if we are safe for the next two hours of sea voyage, what about when we get off the ship?" Sang Mian said as he hugged Xia Qing, "What if Shangguan Fan is waiting outside? Will we die as soon as we leave the cabin?"
Zhou Jian said nonchalantly: "Why don't we go out and take a look? If you don't go, I will."
"If you want to die, just say it. Don't beat around the bush." Zhou Jia's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. His brother's indifferent attitude towards life was quite irritating.
Leaving the cabin was definitely the most unwise choice, but no one responded after I mentioned it.
"Let's eat something." The atmosphere finally eased a little after Zhou Jiayi distributed a bag of strawberry-flavored cookies to everyone.
When Zhou Jianyi noticed his brother's backpack, he bit into a cookie and asked curiously, "Brother, did you bring a backpack when you entered the dungeon? When did you buy it?"
"I forgot." Zhou Jiayi's eyes fell on the bag. The brand new white backpack was bulging with snacks and other things inside. "It seems to have been bought a few days ago. Fortunately, I brought it with me."
The white schoolbag did not attract anyone's attention. After Xiaowu finished eating the strawberry biscuits, he suggested to everyone, "Although everyone saw Weiyi leave the cabin with their own eyes, given the danger of the dungeon, Weiyi could sneak into our group at any time, so we must always prove that we are human players."
Sang Mian: "How to prove it?"
Xiao Wu narrowed her eyes and slowly scanned everyone. She said in a mysterious tone, "As far as I know, the opportunity for players to enter the weird game is desire. You all have strong wishes in your hearts that must be fulfilled. How about everyone tell us about your opportunities and wishes for coming to the weird game?"
