Chapter 170
The three strange creatures were arranged properly, and the strange creature that said it wanted Shen Yunzhe to die with it also disappeared.
Perhaps the body was left in the house, or perhaps it disappeared somewhere unknown.
They don't care about that either.
They were sitting on the steps in the corridor at this time.
"Then Li Yilun and I will go outside to take a look." Shen Yunzhe looked at Huang Yihua, "You stay inside and help us."
"Okay, be careful," Huang Yihua said. "There might be a lot of strange creatures coming in and out of that passage. Be careful when you're leaving or coming back through there."
Li Yiluan was silent for a few seconds before speaking, "Did you hear any strange noises?"
"Strange noise?"
"Like... a gecko?"
Li Yuluan frowned slightly, and he looked as if he had been confused for a long time.
Shen Yunzhe and Huang Yihua immediately shut up. They kept quiet, leaving only the sound of their breathing in the entire space, and then tried to listen to the strange sound that Li Yuluan mentioned.
Sure enough, after the silence, they heard a tiny sound.
Click, click, they finally understood why Li Yuluan used the word "gecko" to describe it.
The sound was very light, like the wind blowing through the grass, but at the same time, it had a sticky feeling, like the stretching of rice cakes, or the stirring of paste. Anyway, it was a sound that was hard to describe.
The three of them looked at each other.
Li Yiluan asked silently, "Where's the sound?"
Huang Yihua: 'It sounds like it's not far from us.'
'later? '
They turned their heads and looked behind them. Behind them were empty steps. They were now sitting on the steps, and these were the most common things they saw when they looked back.
'No. '
The sound was still coming out little by little, and the three people didn't dare to move. No one knew whether the owner of the sound was in the direction they wanted to escape.
At this moment, Shen Yunzhe suddenly remembered something.
If he remembered correctly, at first those pale-looking people outside the door were all clinging to the windows. They seemed to be able to climb to many places and stick to them without being able to fall down, and... when he first saw those three strange creatures, they fell from the sky.
"Up there!" Shen Yunzhe called out.
They quickly looked up, and the next moment they saw a miserable white figure hanging upside down and crawling on the ceiling.
As if it knew it had been discovered, the pale creature raised its head and looked at them. Its neck was hanging on the ceiling, and its black eyes were dark and hollow, as if there was no white in them.
"I saw it, residents of Xiangsheng Community, you killed your neighbors."
"The Virgin Mary will punish you."
The pale white men fell down little by little, "As long as I avenge them and kill you, I can become a new resident!"
Its eyes were filled with jealousy, "How can people like you become residents of Xiangsheng Community!"
But at that moment, his eyes suddenly froze and his limbs were stuck in mid-air.
The pale man wanted to twist his neck, but found that he could not move. He was hanging in the air like a puppet.
“Wha…what?” The pale white man tore his body apart with all his might, “Ah!!”
The three of them took the opportunity to stand up and escape, they ran to the corridor.
"Run apart! Huang Yihua, go to the left!" Shen Yunzhe shouted, "Don't come looking for us, find a place to hide!"
After saying that, Shen Yunzhe and Li Yulun quickly ran to the right. Huang Yihua knew what they meant. She wanted to stay in this community, while Shen Yunzhe and Li Yulun wanted to leave the community, so they had to escape separately. If the purpose of this strange creature was to kill them, then even if it chased them, it would chase Shen Yunzhe and Li Yulun.
Huang Yihua is not stupid, she knows very well that this is the best choice.
While running, Huang Yihua put talismans on herself that would be ignored. Only when she was safe could the two of them leave with peace of mind.
Shen Yunzhe and Li Yuluan rushed out of the corridor and ran quickly towards the loophole. There were no strange creatures in the loophole. It was probably because all the strange creatures had swarmed in at ten o'clock in the evening, and it was already late at this time, so there were no strange creatures that came later.
After all, even if the weird creatures in this playground have some thoughts, they are still restricted by the rules and their thinking is programmed.
Shen Yunzhe was very fast. He jumped onto the door in mid-air in just two steps. Li Yuluan leaned on the steps and looked at Shen Yunzhe who had climbed up, panting. He began to wonder why he had accompanied Shen Yunzhe here.
He couldn't even climb through a door.
"Come." Shen Yunzhe stood on top and stretched out his hand to him, "It's coming!"
Li Yuluan subconsciously turned around, and the next moment he saw a pale white man standing out from the corner of the corridor. His arms and legs were torn apart, and his mouth was wide open. Li Yuluan jumped up with a start, and was pulled by Shen Yunzhe to climb over the door in one go.
The two men fell to the ground.
Li Yuluan was panting.
It turns out that everyone has potential, it just depends on whether the environment forces people to explode.
"We're out." Shen Yunzhe breathed a sigh of relief. "According to the rules, the strange things that go in won't come out easily."
Li Yiluan also breathed a sigh of relief, "It's too extreme, it's scary."
"To be honest, I've been thinking about this for a while." Shen Yunzhe stood up and extended his hand to Li Yuluan. Li Yuluan gave him his hand, and after pulling him up, he continued, "That's right, don't you think it's strange?"
"Where?"
"About Our Lady, and this loophole."
Shen Yunzhe took two steps back and looked at the door that opened in mid-air. "Why did the Virgin Mary open such a door?"
"They say Our Lady is giving them a chance, so she created a loophole to allow them to become residents, but this also means that Our Lady is putting her hand-picked residents in danger, even under the rules, and they will die if they open the door."
"In this way, it's more about survival of the fittest than the generous Madonna. Only those who survive to the end and do whatever it takes can become the winners and finally realize their wishes."
Li Yiluan frowned, "You're right, but what if the Virgin Mary originally had this attribute?"
"If this is truly the original nature, it shouldn't be hidden, and these strange creatures shouldn't feel resentful after being deceived." Shen Yunzhe recalled the angry curses of girls 1 and 2. "They clearly understand the rules, accept them, and join in. It's one thing to join in without knowing the rules and then suffer them.
What's more, it is extremely ironic to put the name of the Virgin Mary on this kind of rule.
It was also very different from the story Shen Wei had told him.
Perhaps this is the Virgin Mary's revenge?
"So what you're saying is: these strange creatures who became residents of the community might not have known at first that something like this would happen at 10 pm, let alone that they would be replaced. They might only have known about it when they were replaced."
Shen Yunzhe nodded. "If you were a resident of this displaced community, what would you think?"
"I'll be angry, even resentful, but at least I won't do it willingly," Li Yiluan replied.
"That's right." Shen Yunzhe said, "What is the basis of the game field? It's negative emotions and resentment."
Dead residents, uninformed residents, residents who replace others, and even the desire to pursue wishes are all strong negative emotions. It can even be said that the desire for dreams and wishes is the most selfish negative emotion that cannot be resisted or replaced.
…
It was very dark outside the community. Because there were no lights, Shen Yunzhe and Li Yulu could only use the light from their mobile phones to illuminate a small area.
They came to the statue of the Virgin Mary according to their memory.
The statue of the Virgin Mary still looked the same as before, but the female statue kneeling in front of him with her hands raised was shedding tears of blood, which were dripping onto the ground. It looked quite strange.
Fortunately, there was no danger.
Li Yilun breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at Shen Yunzhe and spoke without Huang Yihua, "What's your current condition?"
No matter what, Huang Yihua is an official. Although she can be considered a friend of Li Yuluan and Shen Yunzhe, sometimes Li Yuluan is still unwilling to ask questions in front of her. Shen Yunzhe is very special to the official, and it will not be good for Huang Yihua to know more.
"Status?" Shen Yunzhe turned to look at Li Yiluan, "What do you mean?"
"It was just that the strange creature listened to you and became obsessed with you." Li Yiluan thought for a moment, "That state was a bit scary."
"Scary?"
"Yes, it's very anti-human," Li Yilun said. "Humans are highly social animals and are not very receptive to the weird. Your anti-human behavior will easily frighten people. Huang Yihua and I have both been frightened more than once."
Shen Yunzhe thought for a moment, then spoke, "Can the synchronization of erosion be canceled?"
"Erosion?" This time it was Li Yuluan who asked the question.
But the next moment Li Yiluan realized that Shen Yunzhe was not talking to him, he was talking to himself again.
Talking to a being no one knows about.
It’s best not to.
"Why? We don't need Erosion to maintain the situation for now, right? Erosion's ability can be used under normal circumstances. This level of synchronization can easily cause accidental injuries."
[In fact, the danger is not the code erosion, but the code fraud. 】
[The simultaneous code erosion is to suppress the code fraudster.]
"Ah?" Shen Yunzhe was really shocked this time, "No way? Are you kidding?!"
Is the code erosion intended to suppress the code fraudsters?!
Shen Yunzhe didn't know much about the Codename Fraudster. He only knew that his ability was to have a MAX value of weird object charm. As long as he had a lot of weird little skills, being a fraudster would be a waste of his talent. He knew that the Codename Fraudster liked to show off, but was actually very afraid of dead people and bloody scenes.
Apart from this, Shen Yunzhe knew nothing.
No one knows why he became a fraudster, his specific personality, or how he died in the end.
"Why?"
[Because the Codename Trickster's ability is passive and uncontrollable.]
Shen Yunzhe was stunned for a moment, but he soon understood what the system meant.
Codename Trickster is different from other isosceles. Even Codename Erosion can be considered an active skill to some extent. Only Codename Trickster is a completely passive skill. He can gain the favor of strange creatures and make them love him wholeheartedly.
But this kind of love is completely opposite to Code Erosion. Code Erosion is assimilation and guidance, while Code Fraudster is love to the point of becoming evil and wanting to die together.
There is more than one weird thing in a playground.
Shen Yunzhe was silent for a long time. After a moment, he tried to speak, "How did the fraudster die?"
[I won't tell you, you need to experience all of this yourself, but I want to say: his death was too shocking.]
It's shocking.
Li Yiluan saw Shen Yunzhe fall silent, and asked worriedly, "Are you okay?"
"It's okay." Shen Yunzhe smiled, "I learned something strange."
"Oh." Li Yiluan didn't ask what the strange thing was. "Then will you continue to maintain this state now?"
"No." Shen Yunzhe said: "Cancel the erosion synchronization."
Are you sure?
"Didn't you say that? I need to synchronize the experience myself. Now all the strange creatures outside the community have entered the community. Although it's a bit dark, it's very safe here. The best option is to completely synchronize when there are no strange creatures, right?"
[Understood, code erosion synchronization is released.]
At that moment, Li Yuluan felt that the oppressive feeling on Shen Yunzhe disappeared.
He could see a person's fate and could also keenly perceive the slightest emotion in a person. The vague infectious aura completely disappeared from Shen Yunzhe, but what followed was an indescribable sadness.
Or rather... it was a certain soul in Shen Yunzhe that was sad.
Li Yuluan didn't say anything, nor did he express his thoughts, because he knew that this was Shen Yunzhe's business alone.
At this moment, Shen Yunzhe, who was standing next to Li Yuluan, looked at the blood and tears left on the female statue thoughtfully.
He reached out and stroked the statue's face.
He murmured, "It is a hateful thing to make a beautiful woman cry."
After he finished speaking, he seemed to react and withdrew his hand. He looked at his palm almost blankly and fell into a strange silence.
Li Yiluan stood beside him and watched over him, without saying anything or trying to ask any questions.
"What is it about me that you like?" Shen Yunzhe muttered to himself unconsciously.
"Every one of you knows that this is just my special ability, yet you still call me a heretic. The so-called heresy is just your decision."
Shen Yunzhe raised his head and seemed to see countless strange limbs fighting each other.
Codenamed Fraudster, his real name was Chen Qiu. He was also an orphan. Chen Qiu was the name he changed to himself after he became an adult. He vaguely remembered that it was autumn when he was abandoned, and the ground was covered with withered yellow leaves.
He stood in the game field, which was a very high-level game field. All the players had died, and he was the only one still alive.
The strange creatures broke the rules and were fighting each other, and the audience in the live broadcast system were also insulting each other in an attempt to get Chen Qiu to look at them.
It was a huge battle.
As for Chen Qiu, he was just the winner of this battle.
Shen Yunzhe walked past the statues and the statue of the Virgin Mary. He was so quiet that he seemed not to be breathing.
Chen Qiu passed through the battle and walked to the front where the medium was placed. The medium had been destroyed. This was the last player's desperate destruction before his death. He looked at Chen Qiu with resentment, and even if he died, he wanted to leave Chen Qiu to die with him.
He sat on the high steps and watched the strange creatures fight to the last one.
The last strange creature reached out to him, wanting to become his partner and live with him in this playground forever.
"Who wants to live here with you? It's so disgusting just to talk about it." Chen Qiu looked at it sarcastically.
The love in his heart turned into hatred, and the strange creature roared.
"Since you don't want to live with me, then die with me!"
"Nothing can determine my life or death, and nothing can kill me." Chen Qiu spat out a mouthful of blood, but he was smiling. He looked at the strange creature with a smile, his eyes full of pride, "Only I can kill myself."
"Who do you think you are?"
"Even if I die, I won't stay here with you. Even if I commit suicide, I won't die in your hands."
"waste."
The code-named Fraudster committed suicide, and his death was spectacular because all the weird creatures in the entire gaming field were fighting for him and killing each other for him.
But he turned around and committed suicide because he would not allow himself to be owned by anyone.
"My persistence is above your desires." Shen Yunzhe stared at the darkness before him, his voice soft as if he was afraid of disturbing something.
“No one can change me easily.”
