The Trial Game of Life

Aesop seemed to have heard a joke.

Tang Cuo said that Polly was his younger brother.

"Since you said that Polly is my younger brother, you must also know my origin. But how can a puppet have a younger brother, Theodore, if your brother hears this, he should take you to treat it brain."

"But Herodos says he is your brother."

Tang Cuo looked at Herodo, who was still standing still, and he kept reaching out, as if there was a child waiting for his relief in front of him.Although he doesn't know the specific content of the world in this book, Tang Cuo can roughly guess it from the difference in size between the two parties.

Aesop's expression finally changed when he heard Herodo's name, "Have you seen him?"

"I saw the past." Tang Cuo then briefly told Aesop what he saw after taking Nightmare Grass, and finally said: "Polly is indeed your younger brother. He protected you according to Herodo's instructions." .”

Otherwise, Aesop's identity as a puppet may have been exposed long ago.

Aesop's expression changed several times, he held the umbrella handle tightly, and after a few seconds, he turned his head to look at Herodo.But Herodo in the book world would not answer him. At this time, Polly was far from being born.

"Even if this is the case, it has nothing to do with you." Aesop's tone was cold, with killing intent in his eyes.

But just as he was about to make a move, Tang Cuo interrupted him and asked, "Don't you want to see him again?"

Aesop didn't stop this time, and a smile gradually returned to his gloomy face, but it was a cruel smile, "Don't try to distract me with Polly's affairs, even if my father really created a younger brother for me, now Polly It's just Polly."

As he kept repeating, "Polly knows nothing, Polly is just Polly."

The destroyed Polly is a puppet that everyone can recognize, he has no mind of his own, no soul, just an empty shell.Turning up the old things again is just asking for trouble.

"But Poli once lived. Before he was taken away, even if it was only for a short time, your brother also existed. You can't kill him." Tang Cuo has seen the sparkle in Poli's eyes. Not an empty shell.

He gave his soul to protect Aesop.

Aesop stopped talking. He seemed to be completely enraged by Tang Cuo. There was not much anger on his face, but the smile became more and more surly and cruel. When he raised the tip of his umbrella, there was a torrent of magic.

Jin Cheng and Tang Cuo reacted very quickly and spread out to the left and right.At the same time, the puppets also moved, and they rushed towards the two of them with their teeth and claws, in groups and everywhere.

The two were forced to go up to the roof, tossing and turning, and had to deal with Aesop's attack.

Where the black umbrella points, the torrent of magic is raging.The fairy-tale house was washed away, and the dolls were turned on their backs, but Aesop didn't care at all.

"Pfft——" A piece of broken tile slipped across Tang Cuo's cheek, almost drawing a bloody gash on his face, and then fell into the river behind him.Tang Cuo shook his head, the aftereffects of using two nightmare weeds have not been eliminated, and there are still some flowers in front of his eyes, and the magic power is not running smoothly.

Jin Cheng cast a questioning look from a distance, Tang Cuo shook his head, then took a deep breath, and shouted loudly while dodging extremely fast: "I have a way to get Polly back!"

Aesop: "Huh?"

The attack was slightly slow, but did not stop.

Tang Cuo breathed a sigh of relief, and at this moment Jin Cheng also came in front of him and blocked the surrounding attacks for him.He then looked up at Aesop and said, "Dragon's eyes, I can give you dragon's eyes."

In the past scenes, Herodo once regretted that he could not find the brightest eyes in the world for Polly, so that he could not be as human as his brother Aesop.The giant dragon was also mentioned, indicating that the eyes are most likely dragon eyes.According to him, the eyes may be the key to giving the doll a soul.

Tang Cuo took a bold gamble.

The attack stopped, and Tang Cuo won the bet.

Aesop looked down at him sharply, "The dragon clan has long since disappeared, and everything related to it was burned by Louis XIV. How can you have dragon eyes?"

Tang Cuo: "The Ivy League has a road map leading to the Dragon's Cliff, and I have been there."

Hearing this, Aesop's inquisitive eyes swept back and forth between him and Jin Cheng, and suddenly seemed to have figured something out, showing a dazed and playful expression.

He closed the umbrella, and the tip of the umbrella touched the ground, "Conditions."

Tang Cuo: "Give me 10 minutes first, and I will discuss it with Lancelot."

Aesop raised his eyebrows, but then shrugged indifferently, turned around and sat back on his pure gold chair.The cup of milk tea was still hot, and the hot air brought the rich sweetness of the milk tea, which made people feel happy.

Aesop was uncertain, and Tang Cuo was also uncertain whether he would regret it again, so he took the time to talk to Jin Cheng.The two of them didn't care whether they would be monitored by Aesop when they talked here, so they lowered their voices and described the situation they encountered in the shortest way.

Tang Cuo quickly made a decision: "Let Aesop take us to Yorkshire."

Jin Cheng: "Do you want to use the world in the book to resist the punishment of deviating from the plot?"

Tang Cuo nodded.If the continent of Sicily is a space, then the world in the book is a subspace opened up on this space.There is an extra door in the system's punishment for them, so it must be better.More importantly, maybe Aesop could get them out of the library.

Jin Cheng could understand what he meant, seeing that his face was pale and silent, Jin Cheng frowned slightly: "Has the nightmare grass backfired?"

Tang Cuo: "The side effects are too great."

Jin Cheng made a decisive decision, "I'll talk about it later."

Tang Cuo nodded and said nothing.

After a while, Jin Cheng stood on a high roof, looked at Aesop with a smile, and said loudly: "We have agreed, as long as Your Excellency the Rebel can take us to Yorkshire to find Edwin, we will send the Dragon King to you." The eyes are given to you for free."

"Oh, free?" Aesop said sarcastically.

"In order to express our sincerity, we don't have to leave the puppet kingdom. Life and death are in your hands. When you get to Yorkshire, you release us again. No one will know that our appearance is related to you. How about it?" Jin Cheng skillfully transformed their intention to hide in the book into his own concession.

Aesop didn't really believe in their sincerity, but he couldn't see through the existence of the system.He thought for a while, and said, "Why do I believe that you guys have dragon eyes? Even if you have them, why do I have to promise you?"

Jin Cheng: "It is Herodo's wish to let Polly accompany Your Excellency. Besides, Polly attacked Theodore in the library, I think it is also your order, right? You came to pick up the book and found that we are in Here, because I don’t want Theodore to obstruct you, I simply separated him. You see, even now, Polly is only an empty shell, and he is still protecting you.”

Aesop narrowed his eyes, but did not refute after all.

Jin Cheng continued his efforts, "For Your Excellency the Rebel, whether it is the Rose Sect or the Ivy League, there is actually no difference, right? We are all human beings in essence, but you are not. You brought us there, at best, you just watched more There is no real loss to you in a human infighting."

"I have to praise your courage, Lancelot, you really dare to say anything." Aesop clapped his hands. Because of his large size, his voice sounded like thunder, which caught Jin Cheng and Tang Cuo's ears. ring.

"Thank you." Jin Cheng kept smiling, looking like a gentleman.

Aesop agreed to their conditions.Now that the negotiation has been concluded, he will not waste any more time and prepare to go to Yorkshire.But when he left the doll kingdom, he looked back at Jin Cheng with great interest, and asked, "Does Roger Reed know you?"

Jin Cheng felt turmoil in his heart.

He knew that Aesop's words were not as simple as the literal meaning. He should be referring to whether Roger Reed knew Lancelot's true identity.Did Aesop see through something?

Jin Cheng nodded, "Your Excellency the Supervisor has his own ideas."

Aesop chuckled, "Really."

After finishing speaking, he took a deep look at Jin Cheng, then turned and left.It's just that his consciousness left the book, but the body of "Aesop" remained. After all, he himself is a part of the book.

Tang Cuo also heard what Aesop meant, and asked Jin Cheng with his eyes.

Jin Cheng rubbed his nose, "I have a guess - Lancelot is the missing Augustine."

Tang Cuo: "How to say?"

Jin Cheng hummed a melody casually, "Do you remember this? We saw Augustine when he was a child on Dragon's Cliff. Although he looks different from Lancelot, the melody will not It's deceiving. The melody he was blowing with the leaves was very Lancelot's early style."

Tang Cuo is not very good at rhythm, but if Jin Cheng says yes, then it is.

On that side, after Aesop left the book, he put away the "Book of Herodo Aesop".But he didn't leave immediately, but came to Polly's side.

According to his instructions, Polly built a magic barrier to trap Theodore and Lancelot so that Aesop could come here to pick up the book.For Aesop, Polly is a very obedient puppet. He was created by Herodo and repaired by his own hands. He is the least betrayal existence.Aesop is also very relieved to leave things to him.

Now that the barrier was removed, Aesop walked to the spread of disassembled parts, looked at Polly's head rolling on the ground alone, and remained silent.

The damage to the library was repaired due to the removal of the barrier, but Polly, who was the caster, had no way to restore himself.He is a puppet, no matter how many times it is damaged, it can be repaired again.

Aesop originally thought so, and Polly never raised any objections.But Tang Cuo's words finally caused waves in Aesop's heart.

His brother had existed, if only for a short time.

After a long time, Aesop sat down and put away all those parts.It was too late to fix it now, and he had to go to Yorkshire immediately, but the question now was—where did "Sicilian Fairy Tales" go?

Originally, Aesop handed him to Polly to hide, and told Polly not to reveal its existence, but this time, the book disappeared.

Aesop frowned slightly, not knowing what went wrong.

At the same time, in Taoyuan Town, the trap of Chi Yan, Peng Mingfan, and Qian Wei was finally set.

The people in the shopping mall didn't pay much attention to their going and returning. They were just three and a half boys, and they didn't show any high-strength force, so it's not worth mentioning.

All is ready except for the opportunity.

"Are you going to start?"

"It's almost time."

"Hello? Hello? Hello? Can you hear me?"

"audible."

"Keep in touch."

"OK."

"Goodluck, bro."

"Stop your English lectures."

"To be honest, I happened to be taking the IELTS test before I died."

"Study abroad, brother?"

"No, I'm going to run for the chairman of the student union. Another candidate came out with a bunch of honorary certificates. I'm not rushing to the doctor in a hurry. Anyway, IELTS is also a result..."

"Brother, you are awesome, why is your high school so competitive?"

"Shut up and start acting."

It was Peng Mingfan who shouted to shut up, Chi Yan who took the IELTS test inexplicably for the position of the chairman of the student union, and Qian Wei who marveled at Saburo.

The three got a walkie-talkie in the security room of the shopping mall, and entered the era of real-time communication from then on.

Ten minutes later, a voice processed by an electronic synthesizer came from the mall radio.

"Clang clang clang!"

"Welcome everyone to listen to this broadcast!"

Everyone looked up in unison, stunned, dazed, and even terrified.Some people boldly poked their heads out from beside the railings and from inside the various shops to watch, but they didn't see anything unusual.

Only the voice on the radio continued.

Chi Yan cleared his throat and continued: "On this sunny and sunny day, thank you all for coming to participate in the annual Taoyuan Town New Year Games. I am the anchor mouse. In the next time, I will be hosted by I will bring you a fun show - "Take All You Want."

"Because of my high social status, I am now charging an entrance fee for all audiences, 10 grids per person. Please pay attention to everyone. If you can afford the ticket, please stand at the south side of the mall. If you can't pay the ticket, please immediately Leave, those who refuse to leave, please stand to the north of the mall. The time limit is [-] minutes."

mouse!

It's the notorious mouse in that chat!

The player group suddenly exploded.

The shopping mall is an excellent transit point. It is not far from the Grand Theatre, there is a safety zone, and there are all kinds of supplies. Even if the players in the red grid gradually start to run away, there are still many people crowded here.

But now that mouse wants to pay them an entry fee, how dare he?

It's no wonder the players think so. Although the mouse has a bad reputation, there is only one person after all.Just because one player is afraid of him, doesn't mean that the entire mall is afraid of him.

When there are many people, there is confidence.If you don't move, I won't move either.

Especially some of the new players in the red grid and mixed in other grids, many of them got the news of the mouse and came here, with the purpose of killing the mouse and robbing him of the rich number of grids. Where would they go?

But at this moment, "hee hee" laughter came from the radio.Like a mouse hiding in a dark corner, staring at them with gloomy eyes, it let out a determined laugh.

"The timer has already started. In order to show my kindness, I will set an alarm for you every 1 minute."

Almost as soon as the words fell, there was a deafening explosion from a corner of the shopping mall. "Bang——" Amidst the huge sound, glass shards swept out along with the shock wave.

Everyone looked over with numbness, only to see a thick smoke billowing, and they couldn't see clearly what was going on inside.

"How about this alarm clock?"

"There are still 9 minutes."

Whether the alarm clock killed people or not, no one knows, but some players are already thinking about quitting.No matter how good the location of the shopping mall is, it has to be ordered.

Chi Yan's intention for doing this is also very simple, he wants to clear the field.Setting such a big trap is for the most heinous group of people, and it will be difficult to control the situation if it gets bigger, and innocent players will inevitably be involved.

Chi Yan doesn't like this.

"boom!"

"Ten minutes left."

Seeing that some players finally started to retreat, Chi Yan breathed a sigh of relief.At the same time, Peng Mingfan's voice came from the intercom, "I saw someone heading towards the broadcasting room, be careful."

Chi Yan: "Got it."

The fun show has already begun.

When Chi Yan's voice spread throughout the shopping mall through the radio, those who wanted to kill the mouse would know that the mouse was probably in the radio room.

While clearing the field, they waited for someone to enter the network. The broadcasting room was the first trap.
