Chapter 020 Chapter 20

The game is over and the live broadcast is over.

The red skirt was no longer dripping with blood, and the sharp nails were retracted. The little girl returned to her appearance when she was first seen. Except for her face which still had no facial features, she looked like an ordinary little girl everywhere, so cute and adorable.

But Bai Manman still didn't dare to approach her. She stood up tremblingly. She was still a little unbelieving that she won the game, but her body relaxed.

As soon as the nerves relaxed, the pain suppressed by fear immediately surged to the cerebral cortex. Bai Manman had just stood up when she grimaced in pain as if the soles of her feet were being torn apart.

Did she actually run for two minutes on a hill covered with rocks and trees with such an injured foot?

Bai Manman was in so much pain that tears came out.

She held onto the tree trunk with difficulty and moved forward bit by bit.

She really wanted a pair of shoes, but she didn't know where her shoes were lost.

Following the little girl back to the open space, I saw reporter Jin sitting under a tree with a dull expression and a blank look in her eyes. She looked around and cried and laughed: "I came out..."

God knows how long she was hunted in her nightmares, and she even died several times.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the death in the nightmare is very short and the pain is not as real as in reality, otherwise I would go crazy.

But the endless cycle of reincarnation is also a kind of pain. After seeing the strange little girl floating out from the bushes, reporter Jin shuddered and moved to the side, staying away from the strange little girl, for fear that she would throw him into a nightmare again.

"Is it over?" reporter Jin asked Bai Manman.

Bai Manman didn't say anything. She had used all her strength to walk and had no intention of speaking.

After a while, the others also slowly walked back to the open space, including the barefoot bearded man, No. 1 in the black vest who was supporting the young man, and No. 2 in the black vest who was carrying Qi Liuhai.

Everyone is here.

They are all still alive, but everyone has been injured to some extent.

The soles of Bai Manman and the bearded man's feet were bleeding. The young man kept holding his abdomen, probably because he was hit hard when he rolled down. Black vest number one had a wound on his face, which looked like it was scratched by a tree branch. Black vest number two's trousers were torn at the knees, and the blood was dried. Qi Liuhai had a blood scab behind his ear. The only one without external injuries was reporter Jin, but she suffered severe mental trauma and it was estimated that she would have to rest for two years this time.

"As agreed, I will take you down the mountain~" the weird little girl said with a smile.

No one spoke. Those who could move bent over to pick up their bags. Those who couldn't move, like Qi Liuhai, had staring eyes, probably because they wouldn't be able to remember where their luggage was for a while.

"Paddle, Paddle can't see

There is no sail on the boat

Floating and floating towards the west sky~~"

The little girl leading the way was humming a song, stepping on the ground with her little feet, jumping and clapping her hands.

The few people at the back were either using crutches or supporting each other. They were all injured and the atmosphere was depressing.

There is a huge contrast between what happened before and after, and the scene looks weird no matter how you look at it.

Halfway down the mountain, I heard someone else's voice.

"Hey - where are you -"

"We are from the rescue team—"

Bai Manman's eyes lit up, but when she saw the strange little girl in front of her, she dared not say a word.

The Faceless Child acted as if he couldn't hear anything and continued to sing as he walked on.

The rescue team heard the sound of the nursery rhyme and immediately came over and soon met them halfway up the mountain.

The rescue leader's name was Miao. Captain Miao spotted a few people from a distance. Their gender, age and attire matched those on the missing persons list. Although it was strange to see a little girl in a red dress, he still waved happily: "Hello, we are here to rescue you..."

Before he finished speaking, the little girl in a red dress who was leading the team had already walked up to Captain Miao, clapping her hands. The little girl walked past Captain Miao without even turning her head, and continued to sing as she walked down.

Captain Miao was dumbfounded when he saw the little girl had no eyes or nose, only a bloody mouth singing.

This……?

He had lived for more than thirty years, and this was the first time he had seen such a bizarre...

Weird?

Captain Miao suddenly remembered the weird live broadcast that had been uploaded to the Internet.

Thinking back to the gray fog that had trapped them halfway up the mountain, he suddenly understood everything.

"Can you... see me?" Captain Miao asked in a low voice as he walked beside reporter Jin in the middle of the team.

He was worried that these people were blinded by the weirdness and had lost their souls.

Reporter Jin glanced at him and nodded slowly.

"That……"

Before Captain Miao finished speaking, the bearded man at the end of the team whispered to him, "Go down the mountain first, and I'll tell you more later."

After taking a look at the inhuman little girl in front of him, Captain Miao nodded, picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "We've found the people, let's gather the team and go down the mountain!"

Because the gray mist did not dissipate for long, his team members did not go far and gathered together within a few minutes to ask their captain what was going on.

This rescue was a mess. Not long after entering the mountain, we were trapped in the fog. We couldn't go up or down. The walkie-talkie was limited to signal between them, and the drone couldn't get out of the fog. The fog finally cleared. We hadn't been looking for a few minutes, and we found it?

"Let's talk about it after we get down the mountain." Captain Miao said.

He didn't know the specific situation, so he had to ask these people.

With the faceless boy leading the way, the group returned to the foot of the mountain in the shortest possible distance. Looking at the familiar road, Qi Liuhai finally came to his senses from his fear and burst into tears.

Bai Manman was also completely relieved that they could go home.

Looking back at the place where the strange little girl was standing, there was no one there. She had disappeared long ago.

On the other side, Captain Miao and his teammates also went down the mountain. When they saw Bai Manman and her group sitting at the foot of the mountain, they were about to go up and ask about the situation when their cell phones rang.

After receiving the call, Captain Miao showed a look of astonishment on his face, and then he became serious: "Yes, I understand."

After hanging up the phone, he walked towards Bai Manman and others.

The call came from someone above, asking the rescue team to take Bai Manman and others to the city for resettlement. The first thing they would do was treat their injuries and get a physical examination, and the second thing was to ask them about the incident in detail.

By the way, you should also consult a psychologist for counseling.

After finishing the live broadcast, the faceless boy was teleported back home, and saw the small account 'Qingtong' sitting at the desk doing homework with a sad face.

Seeing the Faceless Boy coming back, Qingtong leaned to the side, put his hand on his chin and stared at him: "You're back."

"Hmm... you have homework?"

"There's one more question left."

"Then just keep going." The Faceless Boy turned around and was about to leave, but Qingtong quickly stepped forward and held his shoulders.

"Cancel the dual opening."

Faceless Child: ...

"Even if it's cancelled, it's still 'me' who's doing the math problems."

Qingtong sneered and said, "I just don't want to see another me so leisurely."

Let’s die together.

Faceless Child: ...

This answer is worthy of me.

System: Is it fun to torture yourself?

"If you don't cancel it, don't even think about leaving!" Qingtong's grip on the faceless boy's shoulders gradually increased, his expression becoming increasingly vicious, as if he was determined to die together.

He knew very well what kind of bad temper he had. He couldn't expect his alt-self to let him off the hook. Faceless Child sighed and cancelled the dual role-playing.

Qingtong was the only one left in the room. The young man swayed for a while, opened his eyes, and then showed a look of pain.

"This class is actually about calculus..."

He hates this the most.

Fortunately, there is only one question left, and I can finish it soon.

And the scariest thing is...

"There's a quiz in the next class?!"

Very good, the next class will definitely be live broadcast!

I would rather shoulder the heavy responsibility of saving the world than solve advanced math problems.

I hurriedly finished my homework and stuffed all the books and notebooks into my schoolbag. Out of sight, out of mind. I opened the game interface and observed the completely unlocked interface of the Faceless Child character.

Come to think of it, he hasn't tried the third unlocked ability yet.

"Constructing illusion and reality, truth and falsehood." Qingtong said, "Does it mean that as long as you treat the illusion as reality, it will come true?"

System: "Yes, as long as you believe, everything is possible."

Qingtong: "This is also a big move."

"During a live broadcast, can the audience on the live broadcast platform also see hallucinations? If some people think it is real and some people think it is fake, will it be true or false?"

System: "People on the live broadcast platform can also see the illusion of the skill appearing and disappearing. It is real to those who believe it, and fake to those who don't. However, you can't touch it through the screen, so it makes no difference to the audience watching the live broadcast whether it is real or fake."

"Yeah, I guess I understand."

With this capability, some of the live broadcast scripts previously envisioned can be realized.

"It's just right that the next live broadcast can be more lively." Qingtong said with a smile, "This live broadcast is more brutal than the last one. If we improve it step by step, we can try to attract a few people next time."

The system was shocked: "How many people are there?"

Qing Tong answered as a matter of course: "We are broadcasting live from the perspective of weirdness. Real weirdness is very cruel, right? If no one dies every time, what should we do if we give the audience the illusion that 'weirdness is not scary'? But I can't really let anyone die, but it's easy to say if I have the ability to do so. I can make a few fake characters die."

As long as the audience believes that it is real, the imaginary hallucinatory characters will appear real, so real injuries and deaths will be presented.

"You can also make the virtual and real skills weird, and it's time for everyone to understand the real weirdness." Instead of the weirdness he played.

But before that, he has to draw a card.

The benefits of this live broadcast were huge, and it actually directly accelerated the unlocking of a card drawing opportunity.
