"Nothing, I just want to cool down."

Li Sheng lowered his head, spitting out a line of saliva on the ground like a naughty kid in kindergarten, and at the same time shook his head back and forth, making the saliva slosh.

His abstract movements, which were comparable to performance art, filled Hui Yu's head with questions. Fortunately, Li Sheng recovered immediately and sucked away the saliva with a slurp.

"How disgusting!" Huiyu shouted subconsciously.

Li Sheng said confidently: "What's so disgusting about this? Just like the trivia mentioned in the book "The Revelation of Holy Chai", many animals, including dogs and alpacas, use saliva evaporation to dissipate heat."

"Isn't it good to spit it out?"

"People secrete 1 to 1.5 liters of saliva every day, of which water accounts for 80%, and the rest is mucin, mucopolysaccharides, immunoglobulins, free amino acids, etc. In terms of ingredients, it is not much different from some health products . Every time I spit out money, I spit out money.”

Li Sheng curled his lips, "What's more, water is the source of life. If unfortunately it ends up in extreme environments such as deserts and oceans, not only saliva and sweat must be recycled, but also urine if necessary!"

"Why do you suddenly get excited when the topic of shit and shit comes up?!" Hui Yu's eyes twitched, feeling vaguely grateful that he was a silicon-based being.

"Now, it's time to face the real warden."

Li Sheng instantly turned back to seriousness, before Hui Yu changed the subject so abruptly! ’ In the midst of complaining, he straightened his clothes, strode towards room three, and opened the wooden door.

The door opened, and the surrounding scene changed instantly. The two of them once again stood in the gravity-deficient corridor of the Blood Eagle battleship.

Crew members wearing magnetic boots ran through the corridors, the corridors echoed with the sound of damage alarms to various parts of the ship's hull, and the red distress lights flashed endlessly.

Everything is the same as when you first entered here, including the position, movements, and demeanor of each crew member.

[The second phase mission goal has been completed]

[Three-stage mission goal: Escape from the narrative prison]

[Task time limit: 10 minutes]

[Task reward 1: 600 experience points]

[Task reward 2: 700 game currency points]

[Task reward 3: random item*1, quality depends on the clearance evaluation]

[Task Reward 4: Micro Life Potion*1]

[Punishment for mission failure: None]

After glancing at the newly popped-up notification, Li Sheng walked through the corridor and came to the bow bridge. Isaac and Lieutenant Rabbit Ears were standing side by side, ready to greet Li Sheng. The background outside the floor-to-ceiling windows was still full of pirate warships bombing each other.

"meet again."

At this point, there is no need to talk about those winding riddles. Li Sheng said frankly: "Considering that the mechanical device in the misdirection room claims to be the warden, it should have been generated after you occupied the warden's room. . I want to know where the real warden is."

"There is no actual warden in this prison area, and it is automatically controlled by the system."

Adjutant Rabbit Ear said slowly that Li Sheng could stand here and ask this question, which proved that he had seen through the scam and deduced a series of truths such as No. 1 and No. 2 Isaac. Otherwise, you should shoot directly as soon as you come up.

Li Sheng said in surprise: "Then how did you get trapped and died here?"

"Permissions."

The captain of the Blood Eagle, or No. 2 Isaac, said slowly: "The original Isaac was infected with the Iron Plague virus on the way out of prison. She knew that she didn't have much time left, so she cut herself and split me.

I have tried to escape from prison countless times and have succeeded many times, but I do not have full prisoner permissions. Even if I go through all the trouble and press five engine room buttons in a row, I can't open the gate of the warden's room and leave. here. "

She paused, glanced at the busy crew members on the ship, and said calmly: "I am not willing to go back to the single cell to continue waiting endlessly - the prisoners in the narrative cage may face the enemy in dozens or hundreds of years. If you come to court for trial, you may never wait for sentencing.

Therefore, I chose to enter the warden's room and use my incomplete permissions to borrow the functions of other engine rooms.

The jump time of the Flashback Room, the breaking of narrative integrity by the Continuity Room, the deception of the Misdirection Room

The superposition of various functions transformed the warden's room into what I am familiar with. "

"Familiar look? It should be more than that, right?"

Li Sheng said: "Even if you start from the scraps shown in newspapers and past images, you don't seem to be willing to indulge in fantasy."

"That's right."

Isaac said: "My idea is to use the various abilities of the narrative cage itself to create a small world inside it."

Duck Law - If an animal looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it is a duck.

In the same way, if the small world created by the narrative cage has the same physical laws, rules of operation of things, speed of time, etc. as the outside world, then it will be a complete world that is fake and real.

In this world, Isaac No. 2 can completely manipulate the world line, resurrect his comrades and adopted daughter, make up for past regrets, create a new future, and regard it as his own "reality".

No wonder the contents of other engine rooms are more or less related to Isaac. Including the last newspaper Li Sheng read in the misdirection room (actually the protagonist's effect room).

He looked around, "So, what's the price?"

The most important people to Isaac, Angelina, Anna, and others did not appear on the Blood Eagle, which means there must be something wrong, and things went counterproductive.

"everything."

Isaac said bitterly: "[Narrative] has inertia. Even if I rescue Angelina on the Orion C transport ship, she will die in the follow-up mission. Even if I rescue Angelina on Proxima A If Anna is killed, she will also die from the iron plague virus infection.

Including here - under siege by enemy pirate ships, the Blood Eagle destroyed all enemy ships and survived miserably.

However, more than 80% of the crew on the ship, as well as all the Zero refugees deep inside the ship, died due to damage to the hull.

In the real world online, I can't save them, and it's the same here. "

"So," Huiyu took a deep breath, stared at Isaac and said, "I split twice, went around in such a big circle, and finally returned to the original point, nothing changed? What's the point of splitting me? ?”

"You are the last hope."

Isaac said: "I'm sorry for dragging you into these things. Aisha, who has complete memory and permissions, failed, and I, who have complete memory and half permissions, also failed. Maybe you, who has forgotten all memories and is like a blank sheet of paper, can you A different ending.”

Outside the portholes, thousands of light spears, torpedoes, missiles, and drones are still fighting, weaving together a gorgeous picture with the sea of ​​stars as the background.

Adjutant Rabbit Ears suddenly interrupted, "Time is running out."

"What time?" Huiyu asked subconsciously.

"Time for you to leave."

Isaac said: "My body has long been annihilated. I used the functions of each engine room to tamper with the warden's room. Everything started because of me, and it should end because of me."

With that said, she clicked several times on the battleship's console, and a strong gravity was immediately generated behind the ship, sucking Hui Yu and Li Sheng back continuously.

"etc!"

Huiyu grabbed the wall with both hands and struggled to resist. She had too many problems blocking her mind, such as the lack of memory, the blank space in life, and the meaning of existence.

"When I walked out of the automated factory, looked up at the stars and felt new life for the first time, there was gray rain in the sky. This is the origin of your name."

Isaac whispered: "You are me, and you are also an independent individual. Leave here and write your own life."

Bang bang bang!

Under the pull of gravity, Li Sheng and Hui Yu crashed through the hatches and retreated quickly. The surrounding hulls were also disintegrating and collapsing until they turned into fly ash.

No longer blocked by illusions, the warden's room showed its original appearance - an empty room with a green button on the only table.

There is an alloy gate embedded in the middle of the wall facing the wooden door. The gate was not damaged, only large black explosion traces remained on the surface.

Li Sheng pressed the green button, and the alloy gate slowly rose, revealing a long, narrow, upward-sloping corridor.

"The path to salvation lies within. Let's go."

Li Sheng stepped into the corridor, but the gray rain around him was blocked by a golden light curtain generated out of thin air, making him unable to pass.

A line of text was slowly generated on the surface of the light curtain [Illegal jailbreak detected]

As an individual formed by the second split, Hui Yu is still not a prisoner in the strict sense.

"."

Her expression changed from stiff, to dazed, to relieved. She forced a smile, waved her hands pretending not to care, and said, "Isn't it true? Tsk, I knew it. Forget it, you can go on your own."

tread.

Li Sheng kept silent, stepped back, and returned to Hui Yu's side, pretending to be deep in thought.

"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing?" Hui Yu looked at him in astonishment, "You don't want to have the chance to escape from prison? Just walk out of the corridor and escape! There is a great world waiting for you outside."

Perhaps because he was too shocked, Huiyu began to talk nonsense, saying something like, "Brother, you are not greedy for my body, are you?" "We have only known each other for a few hours." "I'm warning you, I am not such a casual person. Uh, robot."

"I asked, can your 256GB of brain capacity be used to decorate something serious?"

Li Sheng rolled his eyes and complained: "There is no colorful world outside. If I guess correctly, there is just a vacuum in the universe outside the corridor."

"ha?"

"There is only warm air flow in the faucet, there is no water stored in the vacuum toilet, and the drinks in the vending machine need to be purchased with money. These designs deliberately do not allow the element of 'water' to appear in the narrative cage."

Li Sheng smiled: "The gravity of a normal planet should be vertically downward. But when I spit to dissipate heat, I paid special attention to it and found that the saliva was slightly tilted and bent backwards.

This is a sign of artificial gravity.

In other words, we are not on a planet, but on a giant space station that generates artificial gravity by spinning. "

When the space station rotates at a certain angular speed, people on board will feel a centrifugal force similar to the gravity of the planet. Its size is related to the space station's rotation radius, angular velocity and object mass.

If the rotation radius is too small or the rotation speed is too fast, the gravity felt by the person's head and feet is not the same, resulting in dizziness, nausea and difficulty in direction recognition.

Li Sheng did not feel the gravity gradient, which proved that this space station was ridiculously big.

"I don't have a space suit or the ability to breathe in a vacuum, so I have to rely on you."

He smiled, pulled out the [Mortal Salvation], and pulled the trigger towards the golden light screen in front.

Buzz!

The muzzle of the gun accumulated a blazing light that was enough to burn your eyes, and the surrounding air was distorted by the sharply rising temperature.

After a short delay, a thick and long beam of light that burned everything erupted from the muzzle, easily tearing the light curtain, and the remaining force did not decrease, refracting and jumping in the corridor until it jumped out of the exit and disappeared.

Crack, crack.

The [Deathbed Redemption] that achieved the last firing finally completed its mission and disintegrated on its own. Li Sheng put away the broken parts, smiled at Hui Yu, and walked into the corridor together.

The air in the corridor gradually became thinner, and Hui Yu melted some of his limbs, turning into the shape of an oxygen mask and an oxygen tank for Li Sheng to breathe.

The two climbed up the stairs, walked to the end, and looked up.

This is an unimaginably large circular space station, which rotates slowly, connected by four cylindrical shafts in the middle, and a large number of hexagonal honeycomb modules on the outermost side.

Each module is a prison area. All the areas are combined to form a narrative cage that holds countless prisoners.

"Illegal jailbreak detected!"

"Illegal jailbreak detected!"

There was still thin air in the tunnel, so noisy broadcasts could be heard.

The cylindrical shaft in the middle of the space station opened valves, and dozens of X-shaped aircraft flew out of it, heading towards the two people, determined to arrest Hui Yu who had illegally escaped from prison.

[Script mission "Narrative Cage" has been completed]

[Rewards being settled]

[There are 5 minutes left before transmission, do you want to transmit immediately?]

A system prompt sounded in his ears. Li Sheng glanced at the silent Hui Yu, took off his oxygen mask, and shouted, "Come with me."

"Where to?" Hui Yu also shouted.

"A world that is not so beautiful, but not so bad."

Li Sheng turned his palm and took out the task reward prop he had just obtained. It was a palm-sized egg-shaped toy with a small color screen of about 240p resolution in the middle and a row of buttons below the screen.

[Item Name: Electronic Pet Egg]

[Type: Portable Prop]

[Quality: Excellent]

[Special Effect: Offering of Love. Use it on a creature that is lower in level than the user and has a favorable impression of the user. If the other party is willing, the creature can be put into the pet egg.

[Consumption: None]

[Cooling Time: 24 Hours]

[Usage Conditions: None]

[Remarks: The pet egg can only hold one creature at a time. The device itself has functions such as feeding, washing, entertainment, education, and sleep, which can meet the various needs of the creatures in the egg cabin, but it does not increase favorability. The creature will not have the relevant memory of living in the egg cabin]

[Note: When the favorability of the stored creature to the user drops below 50%, the creature can refuse to enter or leave the pet egg, or even choose to defect]

[Note: If used in a script mission, when leaving the script world, you need to pay a certain amount of game currency based on the life strength of the creature to carry the creature away]

[Note: I want to give Yaya a complete life]

"Okay."

Facing the accelerating combat aircraft, Hui Yu did not hesitate and took Li Sheng's hand, and the two disappeared instantly.
