Eros' words were like a huge rock hitting a calm lake.
Causing waves.
"He knows our player identities?" Chu Song was silent for a few seconds, then looked up in the direction where the girl and Eros disappeared. "Does she know that too?"
To their surprise, when Eros disappeared, the roaring beasts also disappeared.
The castle regained its semblance of peace.
But this illusion is like a hypocritical mask, a corner of which has long been torn off, and no one can ignore it no matter what.
The pale light became cold and sharp under the reflection of the mirror.
Xun He approached, but what was reflected in the mirror was not his appearance.
Suddenly a feeling of dizziness came over him.
When he opened his eyes again, he saw cold and sophisticated instruments in front of him. He was sitting in front of the computer, typing code indifferently.
He typed very quickly, his slender fingers leaving only afterimages on the keyboard.
Xun He wanted to stop, but this body did not obey his orders. His mind seemed to be separated from this body.
Until a gloomy young man with silver-white hair pushed the door open and came in. There was no expression on his face and no life in his body. He was like a walking corpse.
Xun He then remembered that this was the "partner" who developed this escape game with him.
"Any progress?" The young man unscrewed the cap of the milk bottle, raised his chin and took a sip. His Adam's apple rolled up and down, and his eyebrows and eyes contained a hint of irritation. "I don't have time to waste with you."
Xun He heard his own cold voice saying calmly, "A string of data has been tampered with. It's very strange. Besides me, who else has the authority to tamper with the data I compiled?"
The young man was suddenly stunned.
He rushed to the computer and tapped the keyboard quickly with his fingertips. The only sounds in the laboratory were the boy's slightly rapid breathing and the clacking of the keyboard.
Xun He was not familiar with the silver-haired boy.
His dream was to develop a game that would create a global sensation. Just when he was at a loss due to lack of funds, this young man approached him and said that they could work together.
Xun He once asked him why.
At that time, the boy was wearing a hoodie on his head, with silver-white hair scattered on his forehead. He seemed to be in a dead silence. He was quiet for a few seconds and his eyes became gentle.
"I want to meet my lover."
Xun He didn't understand what the connection was between this so-called lover and this game.
Later, Xun He recognized that the young man in front of him was the once sensational e-sports player God D.
The young man leaned lazily on the gaming chair, his delicate features reflected on the dark blue computer screen, but there was a barely perceptible layer of expectation between his brows.
What is he expecting?
Xun He quietly watched the codes flying across the screen.
"Once this game goes online, it will probably cause panic on a global scale." Xun He originally just wanted to create a gaming empire of his own, but the young man in front of him was obviously more crazy than him.
Holographic images, escape, real-life killings.
Not to mention the waves it will cause around the world, even the government will not allow such a game to exist.
Even though it has brought holographic imaging technology to another level, it has pushed humanity to another level.
Even someone as cold and indifferent as Xun He was so nervous that he broke out in a cold sweat when faced with such a massacre game that was enough to subvert the entire world.
Time ticks away, passing by little by little.
The boy's eyes suddenly turned red, and hot tears flowed down his eyes and fell onto the keyboard.
He twitched his lips:
“It worked.”
"What succeeded?" Xun He asked.
The boy put on a hat, revealing only his delicate and sharp jaw and thin red lips.
"She said she'd be back. I'm going to go find her."
Xun He didn't understand, he frowned, "What are you talking about?"
The gloom between the boy's eyebrows seemed to dissipate like clouds and sun, and he curled his lips, "You don't need to know."
Xun He pursed his lips: "What is the name of this game?"
The young man said without hesitation, "Ban Shu."
"This game is called 'Ban Shu'."
It's hard to imagine. An escape game filled with blood and killing, called Banshu.
Xun He was once very curious about who came up with the setting of this game. It was about to subvert the entire gaming industry and set off a global sensation. He originally thought that it was the idea of the silver-haired boy in front of him.
But the boy denied his guess.
But the boy didn't say much.
In Xunhe's impression, he has always been a man of few words.
After the game was launched, it instantly caused a global sensation, just like a butterfly flapping its wings gently, causing a strong and irreversible storm.
This is undoubtedly a paradise for escape lovers.
At first, no one paid attention to this little game, until people all over the world went crazy over it and died. Then the government wanted to stop it but it was too late.
Xun He took a deep breath.
Mirror.
Everything before him was a scene from deep within his memory.
Why does it appear?
He smashed the expensive precision instrument in front of him fiercely, as if smashing a man-made, carefully woven dream.
With a loud "boom".
The dream collapses.
At the moment before dawn, Xun He seemed to hear the silver-haired boy whispering "sister" in the wind.
When Xun He opened his eyes again, he saw a dim castle in front of him.
He was back in the game.
After the game was launched and various internal test data showed a stable trend, Xun He also entered the game, perhaps looking for excitement, or perhaps looking for an answer to a question that was not even clear, again and again, until he came to this copy.
"What did you see?" Chu Song walked to his side. Without looking in the mirror, he saw Xun He looked dazed, so he guessed that he saw something.
Xun He shook his head. "It's just some unimportant past."
He pondered for a few seconds and then asked Chu Song, "Do you remember what this game is called?"
Chu Song said "hmm", "Ban Shu."
He was also very strange at first.
Why does such an escape game have such a feminine name?
"Could it be his lover, named Panshu..."
Xunhe whispers.
"Him? Who is he?" Chu Zhou heard their conversation and came over. "But this name is really nice."
"Never mind. I'm going upstairs to find my sister first. If Eros knew we were players the whole time, then he probably wanted us dead from the start." Chu Zhou walked up the stairs and turned back. "I know you all like my sister, but are you really willing to stay in this instance for her? If this instance is formatted, we, as outsiders, will definitely be detected and eliminated by the system."
"And if you die in the game, you will actually die in real life."
"You won't accept this."
The young man lowered his eyebrows obediently, his dark eyes carrying a sharp insight into people's hearts. "But, my sister can't die."
He was on guard against them.
