Cai Lu looked at his expression and was stunned for a moment before he understood what he meant.
After hesitating for a moment, he raised his hand, and a strand of red silk flew up and penetrated into the center of 666's eyebrows.
Seeing a red dot as bright as his eyes condensing on his fair forehead, and realizing that he seemed very happy, Lu Cai couldn't help but twitching his lips.
What's wrong with him... a three-year-old? He wants everything others have?
Lu Cai reached back and tapped his own brow with his fingertips, and a red dot appeared in the center of his forehead.
"No... Sister Lu, what do you mean?" Xue Yi guessed something from her words, but still couldn't believe it.
"Will there be ghosts pretending to be the players' companions?" Hua Xiaochi guessed.
Lu Cai had already turned and walked forward: "It's good enough if they pretend to be us. If we run into Zhao Yan and the others, we'll have to rely on ourselves to distinguish the real from the fake."
Everyone in the group fell silent. The floor here was obviously different from the walkway outside. It was not shiny reflective tiles, but a non-slip plastic walkway.
Wearing sneakers, walking on the aisle, they even made a few intermittent friction sounds.
[Lu Cai: I'm on the 5th floor now. How are you guys?]
[Yue Xiaoyan: I've released a side storyline. Should I rush to the 5th floor now?]
[Lu Cai: Wait a moment, until I understand the situation.]
[Lu Cai: @Qinyu]
Still no reply.
[Yue Xiaoyan: @Zhao Yan]
After waiting for a while, Lu Cai frowned. Zhao Yan's whereabouts were also unknown?
She opened her hands and released red threads, and four or five of them quickly spread out. The group slowly moved forward. Silence reigned, and no one was heard.
Where are the ghosts?
At this glance, let alone the black fog, there weren't even any ordinary dungeon ghosts—
The red silk spread out all the way, disappeared into the corner, and nothing was found.
666, who was at the back, suddenly stopped, and the people in front also stopped.
Lu Cai looked back at him with a puzzled look.
666 frowned slightly, suddenly turned sideways, unsheathed his long sword, and slashed to the left. A sharp wind rushed over, and several people stumbled a few steps before finally stabilizing themselves.
Lu Cai lowered his hands that were covering his eyes and saw a crack in the wall. On the other side of the crack was a dark passage, and he didn't know where it led to.
"This... doesn't look like a dungeon passage, does it?" Xue Yi retreated a little.
666 just turned around and looked at Lu Cai, his eyes clear and transparent, as if asking her whether she wanted to come in.
Lu Cai didn't want to go in, but when he met his gaze, he hesitated.
"You go first." Lu Cai said with a stiff face.
666 still had a stern face, but there was a clear smile in his eyes, although it was fleeting. Lu Cai frowned slightly, not sure if he had seen it wrong.
He walked into the crack without fear.
"You decide for yourselves whether to continue." Lu Cai couldn't force them. "As long as I'm alive, the red spot on my head won't disappear."
After saying that, she turned around and followed 666 into the aisle. As soon as her feet touched the ground, she found that it was paved with stone slabs.
Lu Cai looked up and saw his surroundings. Although it was pitch black, he could see the road under his feet clearly.
She opened the system group chat and saw an exclamation mark on the chat bar.
No signal.
Cai Lu stopped and asked, "No signal here?"
Qin Yu hasn't replied yet, could this be the reason?
666 also stopped and looked back at her, frowning slightly, as if wondering why she stopped.
"Who are you?" Lu Cai looked directly into his honest eyes. "Why did you follow me before? Why are you helping me now?"
He lowered his eyes, thought for a moment, raised the hand holding the scabbard, and a red-painted iron box appeared in his hand.
Cai Lu recognized the box; he had snatched it from Lao Ke.
666 handed the iron box to her and looked straight at Lu Cai.
"Give it to me?" Cai Lu was surprised. The last time he snatched this box, he cared a lot about the iron box.
Despite her doubts, Lu Cai still reached out to take it. She stared at the iron box, her fingertips and palms feeling cold. As she opened the lid along the edge, she couldn't help but glance up at 666, only to find his face completely calm.
Lowering his eyes to look at the iron box, Lu Cai exerted force on his hands and opened the iron box in an instant.
The box was empty, her mind went blank for a while, and she didn't feel any data fluctuations.
That's it? Cai Lu lifted the box and shook it twice, but there was no response.
"Empty box?" She looked up at 666 in confusion.
666's gaze paused on the iron box, then he nodded seriously.
Cai Lu pursed her lips, suspecting that the other party was teasing her.
"If you don't want to tell me, I won't force you. After all, we just met by chance." Lu Cai was annoyed. She analyzed the box's data and found it was just an ordinary object. "You don't have to make such a joke."
Because of his strange behavior, Lu Cai couldn't help but think of Dr. Lu who helped her before, and he also knew that he was not the only strange NPC who had awakened.
Dr. Lu has extraordinary abilities, and she also says that Lu Cai is the same as her... Dr. Lu has lost his memory, Lu Cai has also lost his memory, and now it seems that 666 is also in a state of amnesia.
That's why Lu Cai's mind was opened up, and he wondered if 666 was the same as himself, or if he had some connection with him.
But at this moment, the iron box in his hand hit him hard in the face...
666 felt that she was a little angry, hesitated for a moment, raised his hand and pointed at the iron box, and then raised his hand and pointed at Lu Cai.
Lu Cai frowned, and seeing that he looked serious but there was confusion in his eyes, he pointed at the iron box stubbornly.
"You mean, you took the iron box and then followed me?" Cai Lu asked him tentatively.
666 nodded and pointed at the iron box.
"Is this iron box mine?" This was the only explanation Lu Cai could think of. Then he recalled the original purpose of the iron box and asked, "Could it be that I am Lao Ke's relative?"
But Lao Ke was very familiar with 666, and he was calm when facing her...
Thinking of another possibility, Lu Cai asked, "Do you think I look familiar?"
Could it be that they knew each other, and then he gave the box to 666, and 666 gave the box to Lao Ke?
666 looked at Lu Cai's face carefully, frowned even more tightly, and finally shook his head decisively.
Lu Cai sighed. He had woken up in a supermarket with no memory, wanting only to know who he was. Later, he realized he was just an NPC in a dungeon, and everything he once had was arranged by the dungeon.
After leaving the dungeon, she just wanted to find a way to survive, constantly breaking through levels and killing monsters.
But what about now?
She discovered that she might still have a past, a past that transcended the limitations of the copy.
So what? Who is she?
Are there other beings like me in other copies?
If she found the answer to this secret, would she no longer have to work so hard?
666 waved his hand, and Lu Cai came to his senses. He pointed to the road ahead and then to the darkness above his head.
Go quickly.
Lu Cai sighed. She had to admit, she felt 666 had become much more lively. When she first met him, she thought he was a cold and arrogant boss. Who would have thought that he was a boss indeed, and the "cold" was only part of his character, while the "arrogant" was a complete misunderstanding.
"Let's keep going—" Cai Lu closed the box and handed it back to 666.
He looked down and saw the iron box handed to him. He was very puzzled because he had already given it to her.
Seeing that he didn't take it, Lu Cai said: "I have no place to put it. If you don't want it, I can only throw it away--" He pretended to throw it away. 666 quickly took it. He raised his hand and pushed it, and the iron box disappeared.
"You have a card slot, too?" Lu Cai continued walking forward and asked curiously, "When I first met you, you didn't have a knife in your hand. Did you put the long knife in the card slot?"
But 666 has been holding a knife recently. Is it possible that scavengers are treated so badly?
"You only have one card slot, don't you?" Lu Cai was incredulous. "And you used it to store the tin box?"
666 tilted his head and thought for a while, then nodded, but there was no change on his face.
"Good boy, even a pirated system of mine has eight initial card slots—" Lu Cai shook his head, "It's a pity I can't see your data, otherwise I could help you modify the system and maybe create a few more card slots..."
666 listened very attentively. Lu Cai didn't know whether he understood or not, so he just kept talking.
The darkness slowly faded away, and a dim light flashed. The stone walkway under my feet turned into plastic, which was soft to step on. In front of me was the hemodialysis clinic area again.
The lights became much brighter.
Lu Cai opened the system group chat, and the signal was restored, so she tried it.
[Lu Cai: How are you guys doing?]
[Yue Xiaoyan: Safe.]
[Zhao Yan: I’m not very safe…]
[Yue Xiaoyan: Why did you get disconnected just now?]
[Qin Yu: I met Gu Xici.]
[Yue Xiaoyan: Are you okay?! I've been so scared since I heard anything.]
[Zhao Yan: @YueXiaoYan, your double standards are evident from your punctuation.]
Just as Lu Cai was about to reply, a figure ran up to him.
Xue Yi panted hurriedly: "Why are you walking so fast?"
"Do you think everyone is as weak as you?" Xiao Fei behind him mocked him unhappily.
"What is this place?" Hua Xiaochi also walked forward.
Lu Cai stared at them, his dark eyes seemed to be surging.
She quickly turned her head to the side towards 666, met his eyes, then looked at his brows, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The red spots on the foreheads of these three people are gone.
Lu Cai felt that she might have found the illusion that Qin Yu was trapped in.
Oh no, it was found by 666.
Cai Lu re-entered the group chat.
[Lu Cai: @Qin Yu, I'd like to ask, how did you deal with those two imposters?]
[Qin Yu: Lost it.]
Lu Cai looked at the two words Qin Yu answered with some confusion.
[Qin Yu: After all, they were my comrades, so I had some psychological barriers to dealing with them directly. So, I used my supernatural powers to trap them in place and ran away.]
Lu Cai nodded, turned to the three of them, and smiled warmly.
"It's quite dangerous here, why don't we--" She had only said half of her words when three figures rushed towards her.
In the three billowing black smoke were three familiar faces with ferocious expressions.
Lu Cai opened his eyes wide in shock. How could he explode?
She held the dagger, but there was a figure beside her who was faster than her. The long knife slashed straight in front of her eyes, cutting the three black shadows into two parts!
The screaming filled her ears, but she was completely oblivious.
Lu Cai looked at 666's silhouette and came up with an idea -
Now, they were a team, right? He was the one who wanted to follow her, and since she didn't mind 666's status as a "wanted criminal," shouldn't he show some appreciation?
Just look at his moves and you'll know he's very professional.
"From now on, will you train with me? Even that's the price you pay for following me!"
