Get teased by AI in escape game [Unlimited]

The centers of gravity of the two are still falling rapidly.

Xu Yang couldn't see anything in his field of vision, he could only feel the light ground under his feet and the other hand that was clasped with his palm.

The hand was hot, burning his palm.

From Yin Chi.

In the silent darkness, Xu Yang heard a leisurely voice, piercing the silence.

It was the voice of a young man, the voice was not deliberately lowered to make it sound calm and powerful, but very soft, to some extent, even a bit indistinguishable.

Slowly, he stated a confession:

——"From the moment I was born, I knew that this world was heading for destruction."

——"The catastrophe came from the center of the earth, or from the bottom of the sea... I can't remember exactly, no matter where it came from, in short, I know that day, not far from now."

In the pitch-black field of vision, a glare of light suddenly flashed.

Xu Yang squinted his eyes and quickly adapted to the sudden change.

The light gradually widened and became a huge spot of light.

Then, more bright spots of light appeared within his line of sight.

Like blurred projections, they floated in the air one by one, surrounding him and Yin Chi, and gradually transformed into dozens of constantly flashing square images, from black and white to color, from silent to sound.Some images are still photos, while others are dynamic videos.

They seem to be a record of the images of someone's life.

Xu Yang's pupils moved rapidly, quickly observing and memorizing everything that appeared in front of him.

He saw that the half-human puppet that appeared in the group photo appeared at a very high frequency in every flashing shot.

Once, it leaned on the wall stiffly and moved its legs one by one, as if trying to learn how to walk steadily.

Then, it sat at the dining table, stretched its five fingers, and clumsily held a pair of chopsticks to pick up the scattered peanuts on the porcelain plate.

Every time it successfully caught a grain, the corners of its mouth always split upwards, revealing a slightly stiff smile.

This smile is exactly the same as the weird smile in that photo.

——"Oh, I forgot to say, this is my second birth... When I was born the first time, I was soft, weak and powerless, only half a meter long, and I only knew how to cry and ask people for things Eat - this is what my father told me, the second time I was born, I was truly perfect enough to make him proud."

At this time, in one of the projections, the puppet looked at the camera with a familiar but stiff smile.

Its eyes seemed to be looking directly at Xu Yang and Yin Chi through the lens.

Xu Yang raised his dull eyebrows and looked at it expressionlessly.

The puppet turned its head towards Xu Yang, looking innocent and cute.

It suddenly stood up, took a few steps, stepped out of the frame, jumped into another frame, and became the protagonist of another video.

Xu Yang's pupils widened slightly.

The layout of the background space in that video is a bit familiar.

—he had seen it here in the gray city on the chessboard, the little boy's room with a wall of bookshelves full of board games.

After entering that room, the wooden idol entered the scene instantly, stopped looking at him, walked awkwardly to the side of the bed step by step, lifted the pillow, pulled out an A5 hard-covered book, sat down at the desk, and waved his hands to draw What.

——"If it is said that after that day, people will lose the land and the soil on which they live, then I am willing to use my favorite chessboard to support every life, every mountain, every river."

While that hand was drawing, he turned the pages of the book in his hand. The content of the drawing became more and more complicated, and the movements became more and more agile and fast. The thick book soon turned to the last page.

From a distance, Xu Yang squinted his eyes and saw clearly the content on the last page.

There is a three-dimensional view of a Go board, and two precise dice are drawn, one is a regular square and the other is a regular triangular pyramid.

In addition, a cute Q-version mouse is dotted on the edge of the page—this is probably the guardian of the chessboard, the lucky mouse.

——“—that will be the most perfect ark in the world.”

The young man continued, his voice unchanged and soft:

——"If it is said that after 38 years, the pulse of human beings is still beating, and their noses can still breathe every mouthful of air smoothly, it must be because of me."

——The image came to an abrupt end here.

Xu Yang frowned slightly, and clenched his hands unconsciously.

The next moment, their falling momentum stopped.

He felt that he was no longer suspended in a changing space, but stopped at a specific position.

This is a dark, slightly damp enclosed space.

What the tip of the nose smelled was the pungent and sticky smell of gasoline.

——"How are you all?" The voice resounded from the four walls, and it was extremely light.

Xu Yang hesitated for a moment: "Goda... Val?"

As soon as the words fell, he heard a chuckle that couldn't help but echoed on the walls.

——"Please don't call me that, it's a name only my father can call."

Xu Yang was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, he also laughed out loud.

Isn't that right, the nickname of the puppet's father is not so much the "Godava" he subconsciously thought, it should be "Little Baby".

This old father doesn't seem to know how to name him.

Xu Yang: "So, what should we call you?"

——"You can call me whatever you want, little puppet, Geqi, chess god, whatever."

Xu Yang paused for a moment, then struggled to choose a name that sounded the most normal:

"Okay, Ge Qi... Did you imprison your father?"

If he guessed correctly, the old man trapped in the prison cell was Ge Qi's father.

——"Of course not. It's just that they couldn't find my original body and vented their anger on my father." Ge Qi sighed: "With such persistence, it may not be impossible to find a way to eternal life."

Xu Yang thought to himself: That's not necessarily the case, punishing a person angrily is much, much easier than finding another path that is hard to reach.

But he didn't directly refute it.

He paused and continued to ask: "Do you know what we are here for?"

——"I know, it must be my father who asked you to come and take something away."

Xu Yang said bluntly: "Yes, we want to take your heart and give it to your father."

——"Did father ask you to do this?" The voice sighed leisurely: "He will regret it."

Xu Yang nodded: "He may regret it, but that's a matter for the future, and we're afraid we won't be able to take care of it."

Ge Qi remained silent for a long time, seeming very sad.

A moment later, another question was asked:

—— "I know, you just broke the chessboard, why did you do that?"

Xu Yang said: "This ark has failed, you must have known this for a long time. Besides, if we don't do this, we won't be able to see you, and we won't be able to fulfill your father's wish."

Xu Yang could tell that Ge Qi loved his father.

Even the old man's love for it is not so pure.

That person may have wanted to create a machine that could continue the human world from the very beginning.

Not a child who needs love and care.

——"The reason why you can come here is precisely because 'they' need you to continue here. It is for this reason that I allow you to step into my chessboard and reach the center of the chessboard that no one has ever reached. "Ge Qi said softly but firmly.

Xu Yang could hear the tough attitude implied in his gentle words, but he was not moved, and there was a smileless arc on his lips:

"Yes, but the 'they' you mentioned have already all died, which proves that no human beings can survive on this land. And we don't intend to follow the same path as 'they', and lose our lives for our wrong choice .”

He paused, then continued: "And you, why do you have to sacrifice everything for those people and imprison yourself here?"

Ge Qi seemed to be stunned for a moment.

Then, he smiled lightly.

- "You are very sharp."

Xu Yang smiled politely: "Thank you for your compliment."

The faint light of Yinglan ignited leisurely, illuminating the four walls.

Xu Yang quickly adapted to the light.

He looked around and saw the scene in front of him clearly, his body stiffened for a moment.

——"It is exactly as you guessed. For me, freedom is useless. I am my father's child, and my father's wish is my wish." Ge Qi faced him and sighed softly tone.

It—or, it should be him.

His body is intact, and the appearance of the clumsy, stiff and ugly puppet in the image is exactly the same as that of a real person.

He had a perfect head-to-body ratio, with broad shoulders, a slender and powerful waist, and long thighs.The upper body is naked/naked, the lower body is wrapped in a thin imitation leather armor, and the limbs are also wrapped in that thin and hard armor, only revealing a perfectly carved face that seems to be written by God.

Such a perfect human figure made it impossible for Xu Yang to call "him" "it" in his heart.

Whether it is the realistic and perfect appearance, or the slender and rich heart, he cannot confuse "him" with other non-human beings.

However, Xu Yang was particularly shocked by the rhizome-like thing extending from it.

The thin armor adhered to his flesh, and then extended outwards with abundant rhizomes, or pipes, which were deeply inserted into the wall.

"He" was originally in a large font and was embedded on the wall. The pipes extending from the flesh were like fine roots, and "he" was in the middle of these roots and was firmly fixed here by them. It seems to have become the soil of the roots, sending something out all the time.

Now, on "his" bare chest, right at the heart, there is a small door.

This small door has no screws visible to the naked eye, but has a slightly recessed, handle-like thing to facilitate outsiders to open it.

"This is really...a very...easy heart." Xu Yang searched for words, and finally said this sentence hesitantly.

Ge Qi smiled, with a bright smile on his face: "Yes, but in the past hundred years, only you have arrived here, seen my appearance, and successfully commented on my heart." After finishing speaking, he playfully smile.

"We...'Descendants'..." Xu Yang carefully recalled what the Lucky Rat called them, "After death, it will turn into golden energy and supply energy to the chessboard, right?"

"Rather than supplying the chessboard, it is better to say that it has become my food." Ge Qi smiled and said softly, "Then, I will support the life of the chessboard."

"After holding on for so long, why bother?" Xu Yang said: "After all, this chessboard is too small. No matter how perfect it is, it won't last long. A small and closed world will come to an end by itself. It's impossible for you not to think about it. at this point."

Xu Yang thought he would see regret from Ge Qi's face.

A moment later, he was surprised to catch a sly smile.

"Why didn't I think about it?...It's just that I have always dreamed that one day, I can see the day when Ark comes back to life. If that scene can be presented before my eyes, then even if I die of torture , or to be imprisoned by eternal life, and to be reviled by the world... Then, so what?

"—After all, I have already seen it~" His voice was still soft.

Xu Yang was stunned.

Thin goose bumps rose from his back, and the chill climbed up and rushed into his nerve center, making him feel cold all over.

I see--

As if whispering to his lover, Ge Qi said slowly:

"This chessboard ark is like my lover. I am willing to exchange everything in this world for its appearance. I will use my body, my reputation, my energy, and my freedom to support it forever and extend its life... "

His beautiful eyes gradually blurred, his head tilted, and a sweet smile appeared on his lips.

Yin Chi's expression froze for a moment.

Then he turned his face away and glanced quietly at Xu Yang, who had a dull expression.

"I can understand...your mood." Xu Yang said, "After all, this world has already come to an end, and the miracle after the end is completely at the mercy of fate. The appearance of such an ark on a chessboard is already within the reach of manpower. The limit. You... are not a sinner."

Ge Qi laughed out loud, almost tearing up from the corners of his eyes: "I knew...it would not be normal people who could come here."

Xu Yang seemed not sure what he heard, blinked his eyes hard, and said expressionlessly:

"No... I'm still normal, please don't misunderstand me, it bothers me a bit."

After Ge Qi laughed, he seemed to feel extremely comfortable, his limbs and bones relaxed, and the smile on his face did not fade away:

"Then let's do it."

Xu Yang didn't react immediately: "...Huh?"

Ge Qi relaxed his body, lowered his head, and looked at his chest:

"Take it away and give it to father. I have been with the chessboard for hundreds of years, and it is enough."

"it is good."

Xu Yang nodded, walked up, and looked closely at the person in front of him.

With a perfect body and skin, you can see the fine pores that are indistinguishable from real people.

He paused for a moment, stretched out his hand to hold Ge Qi's door, and easily pulled it open.

There lay a heart.

Rather than saying it is a heart, it is better to say that it is a precise square box, the equipment inside is completely invisible, and it looks seamless on the outside, completely sealed, impenetrable by fire or water.

It was painted dark red by its maker, perhaps with some special blood, perhaps with red paint.

Who knows.

Xu Yang stretched out his hand and was about to take it out, when he suddenly remembered something, looked up into Ge Qi's eyes, and said:

"You are indeed not a sinner."

Ge Qi smiled: "Thank you for your comfort."

"It's not...not consolation, I really think so." Xu Yang smiled back at him, seeing his eyes slightly closed, his expression gradually became serene.

He reached in with both hands, held the red square box, and gently took it out.

Heavy, fiery red box.

This is Godaval's heart.

The moment the heart was taken out, Xu Yang saw Ge Qi's movements freeze.

His body was still embedded in the wall, with a sincere and serene smile on his face, looking down at his heart.

There was a small door there, and it was open.

Inside the door, it was empty.

Xu Yang's hand holding the red box trembled slightly for a moment.

Yin Chi seemed to have sensed something, and walked over slowly, getting very close to him, with a familiar aura surrounding him.

He attached to his ear, opened his lips, and said softly: "You did a very good job."

Xu Yang's hands couldn't help shaking even more.

He held the heart and looked up at him.

In the pitch-black pupils, there is a rare watery light.

Yin Chi was only a short distance away from him, with his eyes lowered, he watched Xu Yang's confused expression quietly, and a very faint smile appeared on his lips.
