Chapter 90
The head that had been forcibly attached fell to the ground, and the middle-aged man's body fell to the ground as if it had no support.
Everyone present had no idea what was happening and just stared at the corpse in horror. But the next moment they closed their eyes and forced themselves to relax.
You can't be afraid, you can't be terrorized, you can't have extreme emotions, only in this way can you survive.
Shen Yunzhe turned his head and looked at those people. After this series of hardships, only a dozen people were left. The others were killed in this train. Shen Yunzhe suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and his thoughts that had been suppressed by the code-name Music Composer all came back as the synchronization was released.
A creaking sound appeared in Shen Yunzhe's ears. He raised his eyebrows slightly, pushed Li Yuluan away and looked out of the car window. Li Yuluan staggered after being pushed and looked quite confused.
Shen Yunzhe ignored him and looked outside.
"We're here." Shen Yunzhe said.
As soon as he said this, Li Yuluan found that Shen Yunzhe had changed back to the way he was before. He was no longer the sad and sensitive person who repeated some incomprehensible words. Now his voice was soft but firm. He turned back to the Shen Yunzhe they were most familiar with.
The next moment, the mechanical broadcast made its voice dutifully.
"Next stop: Langqiao. Passengers, please get off the bus in an orderly manner."
When the people who were still alive in the car heard this familiar name, some of them shed tears in excitement, and then the people around them covered their mouths tightly, telling them not to cry out loud at this time.
Ding Dong, the train slowly stopped. Shen Yunzhe saw the zombies around him walking slowly forward. They crowded at the door, as if they were going to get off.
"Mix in there," Shen Yunzhe said, "Get off with them."
The car door opened with a click, and Shen Yunzhe and others mixed in with the crowd with their heads down. They did not look around, nor did they raise their heads. They just followed this group of zombies out of the car. A lot of noisy sounds rang out, and even if they were not synchronized, Shen Yunzhe could hear it, and it was estimated that everyone alive could hear it.
"I want to go home, why doesn't anyone come to pick me up?"
"Where's my daughter? Where's my daughter?"
"I don't want to go back on the train. Why would I have to go back? I want someone to get on the train in my place."
"But there's no one here, how could there be no one here!"
"Someone will die in my place!"
Click, Shen Yunzhe heard a mechanical sound. The sound was not far away. Shen Yunzhe raised his head slightly and looked over, and saw a group of people in black clothes. Not only Shen Yunzhe, but others also noticed it, after all, the sound was so obvious.
The men were lined up, guns in their hands.
"Report, a train has appeared at Namibashi Station. Shall we execute the elimination mission?"
"No!" Huang Yihua spoke first.
If we were to carry out an extermination mission here, regardless of whether we could actually exterminate these living dead, these less than twenty living people would definitely die.
The person in charge was startled, and the next moment countless zombies looked at Huang Yihua in the crowd, and Shen Yunzhe and Li Yuluan cursed inwardly.
"Let's go!" Shen Yunzhe shouted.
The people mixed in the pile of zombies rushed out immediately. They had learned their lesson and knew not to think but to act immediately. The zombies were rioting, and at this moment they heard gunshots. The bullets shot out the person holding Shen Yunzhe's body.
"Cover their escape!" The person in charge immediately changed the order.
Bullets obviously couldn't knock these things down, but the strong force would slow them down. Shen Yunzhe took out the talisman that Huang Yihua had given him from his pocket and stuck it on his body. Then he rushed over and pulled out Huang Yihua who was buried in the pile of dead bodies. Huang Yihua was covered in scars and was dragged out by Shen Yunzhe.
Li Yuluan didn't pay much attention to them. He was running with the dozen or so ordinary people to rescue people. Shen Yunzhe was obviously better than him.
Huang Yihua became ruthless. She pressed her wrist directly against the talisman on Shen Yunzhe's chest, right where she was hurt the most. Blood instantly soaked the talisman paper. The next moment, her face turned extremely pale, and the talisman paper directly burned. The living dead let out miserable screams.
They crawled away, and Shen Yunzhe took the opportunity to drag Huang Yihua out.
People in uniform quickly surrounded them and protected them tightly. The zombies looked at them with resentment and finally slowly retreated back to the train.
With a click, the train closed, and the train disappeared on the track again with countless zombies.
"Doctor!" Shen Yunzhe looked at Huang Yihua, who had lost too much blood, and said, "Send a doctor quickly."
As he spoke, Shen Yunzhe began to stop the bleeding for Huang Yihua urgently, but Huang Yihua was seriously injured. There was nothing here and there were no conditions for treatment at all.
Fortunately, there was an emergency doctor stationed at each station. The doctor arrived soon and all the rescued people were sent to the ambulance. In the ambulance, someone finally realized that they seemed to have really come back, and crying sounds continued to be heard.
They could finally have a good cry.
Li Yulun's wrist was injured. When he was pulling Shen Yunzhe into the car, the glass scratched him and he was grabbed twice in the pile of dead bodies. The doctor disinfected him and wrapped him with a thick bandage. Shen Yunzhe didn't expect that Li Yulun was afraid of pain. He didn't feel it when he was injured and didn't even dare to look at the wound when it was bandaged.
Shen Yunzhe was not seriously injured. He had a talisman given to him by Huang Yihua on his body. His face was scratched when he saved Huang Yihua.
He asked the doctor for two Band-Aids and that was it.
And now, the two of them were sitting outside the operating room, the operating light was on, and Huang Yihua went directly into the operating room for rescue.
"I feel like smoking." Shen Yunzhe said suddenly.
"Brother, this is a hospital, outside the operating room." Li Yiluan said, "And where did you get the cigarettes?"
Shen Yunzhe took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket and showed it to Li Yuluen. Li Yuluen then remembered that this was given to Shen Yunzhe by a passenger on the train at the beginning. He didn't expect that Shen Yunzhe kept a box and still has it until now.
"I didn't expect you to smoke," Li Yiluan said. "You look like someone who doesn't have any bad habits."
"I'm not the one who can do it." Shen Yunzhe put the cigarette back, "But I can do it now."
Li Yuluan didn't quite understand and didn't care much. Shen Yunzhe often said these strange things. If he paid attention to it every time, wouldn't it be too painful?
Just then, someone rushed out of the elevator, one of whom Shen Yunzhe knew.
Official special department: Qiao Dong.
Qiao Dong didn't recognize Shen Yunzhe next to him. He was wearing sunglasses and leaning on a blind stick, like a blind man, but he was obviously facing Shen Yunzhe. Shen Yunzhe was too embarrassed to ask him whether he was blind and why he was looking at him.
"How is the Talisman Master?"
"She was operating inside." Shen Yunzhe replied, "Li Yiluan, did she look dead when she went in?"
Li Yiluan was stunned for a moment, then he thought for a moment, "I didn't look closely, so there shouldn't be any."
"How can you, a fortune teller, be so uncertain?" Shen Yunzhe looked at him with disdain. "With this attitude, no one would dare to ask you for a fortune-teller's help."
"What are you talking about? I have plenty of clients." Li Yiluan was angry. "You are not a big deal."
Seeing that they were relaxed, Qiao Dong realized that their lives were not in danger. He breathed a sigh of relief and almost fell down. He sat in the seat next to them, and the long-term mental tension was finally relieved. Pentagram smiled and walked over to sit next to Qiao Dong.
Soon a doctor came out and told them that the operation was successful and Huang Yihua was fine. Shen Yunzhe and Li Yuluen also breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to go home.
Li Yuluan was thinking that it would soon be time for him to enter the playground, while Shen Yunzhe was missing the dolls in his cabinet.
Qiao Dong told them that he would visit them at the appropriate time and let them go.
After everyone left, Qiao Dong looked at the pentagram next to him and asked, "How is it?"
"Li Yiluan is a person with special abilities."
After getting a positive answer, Qiao Dong breathed a sigh of relief, glad that Li Yuluan was a person with special abilities and glad that he came out.
Yes, Pentagram can not only see strange objects, but his blind eyes can also see people with special abilities. However, what he sees is not the appearance of a human, but a little light spot that distinguishes the strange objects. The strange objects are red, and the people with special abilities are light white.
"What about Shen Yunzhe?" Qiao Dong asked expectantly.
"Shen Yunzhe..." Pentagram recalled what he had just seen, "I'm not sure. He has light, but it's a little dim. However, he seems to have a lot of light on his body. Those lines are connected to him, as if they are transmitting light."
"ah?"
This abstract description left Qiao Dong bewildered. "Colorful lanterns?"
"No matter what it is, as long as he shows any signs of causing direct harm to the mysterious player, we will definitely fight for him." Pentagram said, "By the way, I heard you found out his background?"
Qiao Dong was stunned for a moment, then took a breath of cold air, "Hiss..."
"The train problem has been so bad lately that I almost forgot about this. This matter needs to be reported to the higher-ups. Also, I need to talk to him in person."
Pentagram was a little confused, "Is his background very special?"
"It's very special," Qiao Dong said. "Those who can be rescued have been rescued. Next, we need to explore the patterns of trains and find ways to mitigate their impact."
"Better find a way to clear the train," Pentagram said.
Qiao Dong nodded, then he took out his cell phone from his pocket and opened it to see the latest explosive news.
There are always one or two reporters and self-media who are ignorant of the consequences and try their best to get into the subway to take pictures. Half of the people who find loopholes to get in are captured by the zombies on the train, and half of them barely make it back alive. As a result, the rumors on the Internet become more and more intense and finally reach a point where they cannot be controlled.
The public is in urgent need of the truth, and the players are also aroused to be restless.
I don’t know how many players used the “truth” to show ordinary people surprise Easter eggs. When the official caught a player, that player had already shown the live broadcast to almost 500 people. If he hadn’t been caught by the official, he would have continued to spread the news. The official put him in jail and tried to find victims.
Unfortunately, the victims were dragged into the game field after watching the live broadcast, and less than one-fifth of them survived.
This time, public opinion exploded again and the incident caused a sensation.
Finally, the official came out and issued an announcement.
《Absolutely do not watch suspicious live broadcasts.》
The sentence was incoherent and left everyone confused, but fortunately a player explained it in the comment section.
The so-called suspicious live broadcasts are called "surprise Easter eggs" by players. Don't mistake them for Easter eggs. In fact, the live broadcasts are death videos. Once you see them, you will enter another dimension, which we call the playground. In the playground, you need to complete the mission with your life. If you fail to complete the mission, you will die.
Do you want to know why this thing is called a 'surprise Easter egg'? Because if you share this live stream with others, it will delay entry to the game. I don't know how many players spread the word just to delay it by a day or two. This also means that 95% of players are attracted by the 'surprise Easter egg'.
【Finally, please note that most of the people who share this are friends and family.】
What?
[Holy crap, this thing is called a 'surprise Easter egg'?! Even Pinxixi's ruse to slash people isn't this bad!]
[In other words: the higher-ups have implicitly acknowledged that such things exist, that ghosts exist in this world.]
[Speaking of which, I have a friend who told me the night before that someone showed him a strange live broadcast, which seemed to be a suicide live broadcast. As a result, he died in an accident the next day. I didn't take it seriously at the time. Could it be... this thing?]
[Oh my god! How scary!]
[Ordinary people are well protected and have no idea what happened to us. This subway is a strange invasion, like a playground invading reality. Let you see what we are going through!]
[Is the person upstairs a gamer? Why don't you resent the person who dragged you into the game, but come here to resent ordinary people? Is there something wrong with your brain?]
"Why do I have to be so humble in the playground just to survive, while they are so arrogant here? Everyone should be like me!"
Shen Yunzhe turned off the announcement, threw his phone on the sofa, and leaned against the back of the sofa, looking a little tired.
"System." Shen Yunzhe called out to the system, "Is this completely impossible to conceal?"
[Ordinary strange erosion incidents can be treated as ordinary criminal cases, but the subway is so large and influential that there is no way to avoid it. Naturally, the news had to be made public. This is also the beginning of the collapse of the Codename Hope world and the reason why most worlds are unable to maintain it.]
"Because negative emotions like panic are the nourishment of the playground. The more panicked and fearful they are, the more they will be attracted to it." Shen Yunzhe murmured.
[That's right, the more chaotic the world becomes, the faster the gaming field erodes.]
Even with a person with special abilities like Codename Hope, Qingcheng City could not escape the fate of being swallowed up, and even became a playground for wreaking havoc on other worlds. Perhaps he is the only one still alive in the world of Codename Hope.
After all, after thinking about it, it is probably only these game fields that can wipe out Shen Yunzhe's peers.
Shen Yunzhe did not continue asking. He just looked at the beautiful doll on the table quietly. After looking for a while, he put his hand on the table. The next moment, the doll on the table slowly stood up, and its limbs were twisting in an unusual way. Fortunately, it was a doll, and it would be fine no matter how it twisted.
Shen Yunzhe withdrew his hand in frustration and spoke.
"What kind of strange ability is this?"
[Marionette.] The system's voice was filled with a hint of amusement. [I didn't expect you'd use this ability to control a doll. Now you can go and perform.]
"I mean, why would I do this?"
"I've told you before." The system said, "After reaching 100% synchronization, you can gain access to your peer's most profound memories, and you'll also gain their abilities. Codename Music Composer is the first. Music composition and special abilities are yours."
Shen Yunzhe knocked on the table and watched the doll jump up again, then walk from one side of the table to the other.
“It’s not fun.”
The system slowly typed out a question mark.
"The doll isn't alive, and neither is the strange creature. It's just acting according to my will. Basically, I'm controlling it. What's the difference between this and me holding the doll? It's useless except for scaring people."
Shen Yunzhe thought about it, paused, and then asked, "Can you control people?"
[…You can try, but who do you want to control? ]
"Hopefully," Shen Yunzhe said the name that was taken for granted. "It would be best if he were completely lucid, and then I could control him while he was lucid."
He really, really wanted to see Codename Hope looking at him in surprise. He wanted to control his body but couldn't, so he could only be controlled to get closer to him. Shen Yunzhe could pinch his face like a doll. It would be best if he could make an innocent and pitiful expression at this time, even if it was just fake.
Thinking of this, Shen Yunzhe lowered his head silently.
He seemed to be thinking about something bad.
