Chapter 315 Snow Survival Day 4 (3) Any Door Wants to Be the Boss...
Currently, more than half of the people on each server can unlock cross-server chat, but there aren't many people chatting there. Why would there be such a one-sided public opinion in a place where people don't chat often? This is really puzzling.
Soon, a cross-server post gave a rough answer. The post fully described what the mastermind had done during his dormant period in the apocalypse, but the poster said that the person who knew the story had died, and the content was edited and sent to him before he died.
Because the insider was the first person to bid for the cross-server invitation card. Shortly after he made the bid, he was killed by the mastermind behind the scenes. The insider repeatedly told the poster that if he saw him offline, he must post this content to fulfill his last wish.
According to the whistleblower, after the mastermind came to the beta test server, he has been providing convenience to those who intend to commit crimes in the end times, allowing them to give full play to their evil thoughts. After cross-server chat appeared, he began to recruit people from other servers. When these people have done enough bad things and reached the maximum federal sentencing standard, he threatened them to use this to his advantage.
At first, those people were not happy about it. After all, those who could do evil in the apocalypse had some abilities and were on the list. How could they be willing to be used by someone they had never heard of? They all wanted to be the overlord of their own region. But when the man behind the scenes threatened that after the apocalypse, he would erase their information and submit all their data as evidence to the Federation, they backed down. After receiving the benefits he provided such as a steady stream of special intelligence, experimental secret doors, etc., they joined completely. After all, what the black hand asked them to do was also what they wanted to do in their hearts, but it just required paying some price occasionally.
As for those who are disobedient, the mastermind behind the scenes has a door that can lead to any survivor on any server. He can instantly reach other people and kill them with a white blade that is extremely fast and has great damage. Before the people around him can see what happened, he disappears. After several assassination threats, no one dares to resist anymore.
No wonder Yang Haotian described the mastermind behind the scenes as a devil in his notes. He didn't need to do anything himself, but he turned the end of the world into a mess, and eventually it developed into the result he wanted. It was like a vicious virus that quietly invaded the normal order of the entire world.
Yu Miaomiao stared at the poster's ID in a trance. This person's description was so detailed, it seemed like it was written by the mastermind behind the scenes. And...
Moreover, he has witnessed the death of his companions, but he is still so brave to post, and he has not been killed until now. It is too strange.
Soon, someone else expressed the same doubt, and right after this doubt, that person was shown to be offline.
Well, maybe she was overthinking it.
But if that person had a portal, why did he want to kill himself so much, but did not appear in front of Yu Miaomiao, but had to borrow the hands of others?
There is also a key message in this passage, which is after the end of the world.
In other words, the end of the world may come to an end naturally. Even if the current survivors do nothing, as long as they live well, they can wait for the day to return to the real world.
If that's the case, why would the mastermind interfere with Yu Miaomiao's card collection, or why would he go to such great lengths to use other bad guys to get rid of him so anxiously?
She was so anxious, probably because her and Tingting's joint efforts were about to reveal the truth or what they were about to do would affect him.
Therefore, Yu Miaomiao guessed that the use of his three doors had certain limitations, and his so-called method of erasing personal information was probably about to become ineffective under Awei's layout.
Dr. Ji also knew that the end of the world would come, and he wanted to finish the task at hand, so he hurriedly found Yu Miaomiao and asked her to wait.
After this post came out, everyone was speculating: Could the mastermind behind this be someone inside the system? Could this person be the one who caused the feeling of being observed? Could this person also be the one leaking some of the vague internal system information?
If this is true, this person is such a supermodel.
No one responded, and no one gave a definite answer, but the more this happened, the more others thought so, and even portrayed him as an insider who was deliberately lurking in the apocalypse to observe the survivors' reactions and had all sorts of connections. Some people who had originally promised to come to the test server to give Yu Miaomiao cards changed their minds one by one. They didn't want to offend the insiders. They had finally survived until now, and if they could go back, there was no need to take risks.
It turns out that the mastermind behind the scenes not only wants everyone to develop at his pace, but also wants to come out at the right time and become the one who leads everything.
Just as Miaomiao's team came out to question whether this assassination mechanism really existed, there were already survivors in the beta test server who said they didn't believe it and insisted on bidding, and were found dead the next second.
Those who were originally criticizing him in this server world all shut up, and no one dared to say a word against him, for fear of being retaliated against.
Yu Miaomiao first sent a message to Tingting asking for new information, but before she could get a reply, she received a new message from Hua Bie.
"Hua Bie: I see the light is on in your room. Are you awake? Are you feeling better? I just figured out what the monster is today. It's a nocturnal spider. It only hides in dark places. If you encounter it and are unsure of killing it, you can use light to drive it away first."
Yu Miaomiao looked at his position and found that he was almost 1 kilometer away from her. Could he see what was happening in her house from such a distance?
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Didn't you say that making noise today would trigger an avalanche? Why are you going out so far today?"
"Hua Bie: While you were unconscious, an expedition site spawned nearby. When Iris went there, it was already occupied, so she accepted someone else's invitation to go to another one. I calculated the time, and the nearby expedition site has been occupied for almost 12 hours. I plan to go in and see if there's anything left. If not, I'll just blow up this hole and let your friend get more information sooner."
"Hua Bie: We've estimated that the avalanche won't affect the base, don't worry."
Just after he sent this message, Yu Miaomiao received a reply from Tingting.
"Unstoppable longing: Meow meow, you can stop your companions from blowing up the caves in the exploration zone. The game system after Snow Season Survival is almost all 'rumors'. The designer's real name is Liu Yuyan, and he didn't even leave many exploration zones in the apocalypse."
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Strange, doesn't the apocalypse need the energy generated by the survivors fighting to maintain its operation? There are no exploration areas, so why are the survivors fighting?"
"Meow Meow is not short of water: killing each other...?"
"Unstoppable longing: That's right, the current population of the apocalypse has already exceeded Tengman Company's initial estimates and screening plan. Therefore, Liu Yuyan, the person in charge of designing the snow season survivors, only designed one type of adventure zone according to the company's expectations, and didn't plan for that many. Before the system went into operation, the company analyzed the possibility of this problem through intelligent analysis and temporarily reduced the output of adventure zone experience cards. Now that the world's energy cycle has been affected, the existing number of caves is insufficient to supply the energy generated by the snow season to the apocalypse system. The apocalypse system is doomed sooner or later. If the system is to continue operating, the survivors will have to kill each other or terminate it prematurely."
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Otherwise, we won't be able to continue to obtain supplies, and there will be no card drawing session?"
"Unstoppable longing: Well, starting today, killing monsters will no longer drop any supplies. Even the supply of supplies in the exploration area has begun to drop sharply. This is the system's circuit breaker mechanism. It will return to normal once the number of players reaches the required level. The card drawing link designed by Wei was discovered to be a secret door left by him before it went online, so the company forced him into the apocalypse. They can't change the program logic, so they can only temporarily put the circuit breaker mechanism in the card drawing link. This will also reduce our chances of escaping the apocalypse."
"Meow Meow is not short of water: I'm very confused about one thing. Why did Wei, an insider, go offline so early? Could he be targeted by the system?"
"Unstoppable longing: The system can't be set to sanction specific individuals, but it does have its own identification mechanism. The company is concerned that someone inside the system might exploit internal information to dominate the apocalypse and affect the elite selection plan, so they've implemented a system to prevent downtime. Simply put, if the system detects an insider in the apocalypse, it will continuously increase the difficulty until they're offline."
Yu Miaomiao always felt that she had encountered difficulties temporarily. Could it be that some of her behaviors had reached the system's recognition mechanism?
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Doesn't Ah Wei know this mechanism? Why did he expose himself?"
"I can't stop thinking about you: He knew that, so he deliberately exposed himself to trigger the mechanism, just to let the intelligent system deal with him instead of logging off naturally. If not, his data would be seen by the mastermind behind the scenes, and the things he did would be discovered. I wouldn't be able to get to where I am today."
It’s really a big chess game.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Could Liu Yuyan be a fake content staff? If he does this, isn't he afraid that the system will force him to increase the difficulty and delete him?"
"Unstoppable longing: The more others speculate, the slower the system's judgment becomes, because analysis takes time. Right now, the most important thing for the system is to maintain the normal operation of the world. This type of analysis is already at the bottom of the queue. Since there were no card draws today, Liu Yuyan knew the system was overloaded, so he confidently issued these warning messages."
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Is it true that if we collect all 81 cards, he will be unable to erase his actions, and will also be presented to the Federation as evidence after the system ends? That's not right. I remember you said that losing a life in the apocalypse means losing human consciousness, which is equivalent to the death of the real body. How could a company actively report such a harmful system to the Federation and fall into its trap?"
No wonder Tingting can now send messages to her directly through the system, because the system no longer has the spare capacity to detect and analyze so many things. If it wants to analyze, it will first get rid of Liu Yuyan, the internal staff.
During the conversation with Tingting, Yu Miaomiao shared the new news with Nana and Hua Bie, and added a sentence to Hua Bie: "Be careful when you come back."
The man, who was a kilometer away, was so happy that he almost laughed out loud. But when he thought of his current situation, he quickly suppressed his emotions. He wanted to go back quickly to his beloved.
"I can't stop thinking: Is it possible that what this system has been doing from the beginning has been tacitly approved by the federal government and is a project that has been legally applied for and approved?"
What?
The biggest "black hand of God" actually comes from the Federation. Do these people still have a chance to go back? Going back will be a dead end, right?
"Unstoppable longing: Don't think so darkly, meow meow. According to Ah Wei, when Tengman Company launched the project, they described this system with great fanfare. It said that it would not only screen elites for the Federation, but also naturally eliminate a group of people who have committed bad deeds and have poor abilities. After all, breaking the law here carries the same punishment as in the real world."
After the two of them had been in contact for a long time, Tingting immediately spoke out what was in her heart.
"Miaomiao is not short of water: You've got me confused. Will Tengman Company, at the end of the world, tamper with the records of those who haven't done anything wrong but have gone offline and accuse them of crimes they didn't commit? Or will those who haven't done anything wrong actually go offline... Then is A-Pi okay and just fell into a light sleep?"
"Unstoppable longing: To be honest, I don't know. Ah Wei didn't say, but I personally lean towards the latter."
Gave her hope, but disappointed her again.
No, it should be the latter. If Tengman Company could tamper with the data and report the final game test results to the Federation, Liu Yuyan would not be so anxious, and he would not even need to rely on others to eliminate the outliers. He just knew that once the system ended abnormally, he would be abandoned by the company and reported to the Federation along with other bad guys.
However, among those who can truly survive to the end, how many of them can keep themselves safe and have never killed anyone? Even her own hands are stained with blood.
"Unstoppable longing: Oh, I forgot to tell you, your survival in the apocalypse doesn't have to be restricted by what I said. The Federation determines a person's guilt and the severity of their punishment based on the actual process, such as whether it was self-defense, whether they were fighting violence and protecting the people, and whether they were doing good for the world. As long as we do what is right and in accordance with morality, we have nothing to fear. Ah Wei was afraid that I would hesitate, so he specifically told me this."
Yu Miaomiao: ...
The Federation seems quite kind-hearted. They want to use this company to recruit a combat saint.
She asked herself if every killing was necessary.
Yes, if she was timid, she would probably be the one to be offline.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: I plan to participate in the auction for the cross-server invitation card soon to verify whether the system can't tamper with the data, can't delete the data, or something else."
"Unstoppable longing: Do you want to confront Liu Yuyan head-on?"
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Well, it's time to deal with this devil."
She didn't know when the system would collapse, nor did she know whether the kitten would still be on the bed when it collapsed, but she couldn't wait any longer. After all, Tingting had already confirmed for her that if the player terminated the game, everyone could return to their normal bodies when the system did not have enough energy to support it. Now, all the survivors didn't have to work together to tear through the space barrier.
As soon as she finished sending this message, she received a transaction request from Tingting.
It's a [Catch a Blade with Bare Hands Card].
"Unstoppable longing: This is what Awei left for me to use against Liu Yuyan. I think you need it more than I do."
"Meow Meow is not short of water: It's great to have you, Tingting."
"I can't stop thinking about you: Don't be impulsive. As long as you don't log off, you can still continue to plan and make plans."
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Good."
With an extra card specifically for dealing with Liu Yuyan, Yu Miaomiao is much more confident, but it may not be enough for her to rely on herself. She also needs two companions hiding in different positions as a backup, and she can't let him escape like last time.
Before Hua Bie returned to the base, he received a new message from Yu Miaomiao about his seclusion. "I need to prepare some supplies to deal with the mastermind head-on. I may need you and Iris to help me clean up the mess. If you need any weapons or items, just message me. I won't be coming out today."
She confronts the bad guy head-on?
Hua Bie wanted to refute immediately...but when he thought that the person was Yu Miaomiao, he seemed to have no choice but to agree.
This was not the first time she stood up. Xiaoguai was not in good condition yesterday, so Huabie asked her to continue waiting. He knew it was impossible, and all he could do was support her.
When Iris heard about this, she wanted to object at first, but after thinking about it, she seemed to have no other choice. This might be the fastest way to get the cross-server invitation card and directly eliminate the mastermind behind the scenes. So she agreed and told Yu Miaomiao to do it boldly. Even though she didn't confirm the teleportation last time, this time might be a better time to use this special card.
Yu Miaomiao spent the entire afternoon at the workbench. Not only did he finish the quick fried rice in his backpack, he also used up all the supplies he bought from various servers before completing all the war preparations.
In the past, they had always faced a group of armed survivors and had solved the problem without any danger. This time, they were only facing one person, but it seemed more terrifying. Even Awei didn't explain to Tingting what other tricks this person had. But in short, she still had the space container of love that Awei left for Tingting.
"Yiren Fanfantian: Baby, I'm ready. Once you get the card, you can invite me anytime."
Everything is ready, only...
"Hehe: Damn, this is a god from our beta test server, he actually confronted the game staff head-on."
"Lonely Mother: I saw it too. Meow God actually offered a bid for a cross-server invitation card. That's really impressive."
"A little handsome: Tsk tsk, isn't this just hitting a rock with an egg? I admit that Meow God is strong, but how can he be stronger than the internal personnel who directly stopped the daily card drawing session?"
"Yingying Monster: Use your brain. Didn't you encounter the daily card draw today? It's just that there were no card draw rewards. If he is really an insider, why doesn't he just turn off this system sound? I'm afraid he can't do that."
As soon as Yingying said this, Lulu slapped her head hard. She muttered unhappily, "Hey, I'll become stupid if you slap me again."
Lulu said angrily, "Those people have gone crazy. After Liu Yuyan killed ten bidders, they've completely believed him and are 'following him to the death.' No matter how much you say, it's useless. You won't wake someone who's pretending to be asleep. You'd better keep your shields and protective suits ready. If Meow God really fights that bad guy, it will definitely cause an avalanche."
Yingying said half-believingly, "Why do I feel that person won't come today?"
Lulu asked curiously, "Where's the basis for this? Why didn't you tell me earlier if you had this idea?"
After saying that, she habitually raised her hand to pat Yingying's head. Thinking of what Yingying had just said, she scratched the back of her head with her hand, pretending to check whether the mask was worn properly.
Yingying also followed suit and rechecked her mask. She didn't want to worry the people around her at such a critical moment. "I had nothing to do just now. Hey, don't hit me, it's not that I had nothing to do. I was gossiping and observing, and I found out that those people died within an hour of an avalanche nearby. There's never been an avalanche near us, so that person probably wouldn't dare come."
Lulu thought about it and it seemed to make sense, so she quickly shared Yingying's idea with Yu Miaomiao.
"Miaomiao is not short of water: Well, Nana gave me the same analysis. I waited for 10 minutes, but he didn't show up. I guess there's a time interval between him opening and closing the secret door, so I'm worried we won't be able to evacuate in time after the avalanche. It seems we're safe before the avalanche. If he doesn't show up by tomorrow noon, this card will be in my pocket."
The fourth day of survival in the snow season was spent by the survivors in pitch darkness. Those who had supplies hid in bright houses. As long as the lights were turned on brightly enough, they could prevent spiders from attacking the house. Except for those with fewer energy batteries or fewer supplies, they died silently at the hands of spiders.
