The Secret Chamber of the Card Game

Hearing Liu Qiao's words, Xiao Lou felt a chill run down his spine. Thinking of the adult versions of Xiao Lou in his dream, he suddenly realized that the Xiao Lou that Liu Qiao saw was probably——

clone.

Whether it is No. 4 Xiaolou, or No. 4 and No. 5 copied from No. 6...

In short, Xiao Lou is sure that he has never met Liu Qiao, but Liu Qiao is very sure that he has met Professor Xiao, which means that the replicant next to Liu Qiao is very similar to Xiao Lou himself, and he can even deceive Liu Qiao by pretending to be fake. bridge eye.

Xiao Lou's pupils shrank, and he hurriedly asked in his mind: "Xiao Liu, where did you meet him? What did he say to you?"

Liu Qiao was puzzled, and was about to answer when there was a knock on the door outside.

She got up and opened the door.

The moment he opened the door, Liu Qiao suddenly met a pair of dark, clear eyes, which were full of smiles, looking at her very kindly and gently.

Standing in front of Xiao Lou, Wen Yan asked, "Aren't you asleep yet?"

Liu Qiao: "...Well, I can't sleep."

Xiao Lou walked into the room, put a plate of snacks on the table for her, and said, "I just came from Guilao's side and brought some of your favorite snacks."

Liu Qiao stared at the snacks on the table and said, "Thank you...I'm not hungry."

She was a little confused, and tried to communicate with Xiao Lou through spiritual connection: "Professor Xiao? Aren't you sitting opposite me? Why do you want to talk to me with a heart?"

sitting opposite?

Thinking that the person exactly like him was face to face with Liu Qiao at this time, Xiao Lou's back stood on end, and he hurriedly said, "Xiao Liu, be careful, the Xiao Lou you saw is not real, he is a clone!"

The matter was too complicated, Xiao Lou concluded as quickly as possible: "My identity is the prince of the Luoke Empire. In order to select the best heir, my father launched the Noah's Ark project 20 years ago, and copied hundreds of them. Xiao Lou. At present, there are 4 known surviving Xiao Lou, and the one you encountered is probably No. 4, and it is not sure whether there will be more copies in the future."

Liu Qiao: "..."

At this moment, Xiao Lou, who was sitting in front of him, sighed softly, and his tone was full of helplessness: "If my card bag hadn't been stolen, I wouldn't have been unable to contact Hanjiang and the others. Little Liu, how about You go out to sea as soon as possible, find other people first, and bring them back to the Mermaid Palace, we will figure out a solution after everyone gathers."

Who should I trust? !

Liu Qiao's heart constricted for a while, and she clenched her fists under the table to keep herself calm.

She heard herself say calmly: "Let's discuss this matter with Senior Gui and the others. I don't know where to find them by myself. If I get lost too, wouldn't it be more troublesome?"

Xiao Lou smiled slightly: "Yes, we will discuss it tomorrow."

Liu Qiao's mind was very messy. The Xiao Lou in front of him was exactly the same as the Professor Xiao in his memory. His movements, voice, even the expression when he smiled, the tone of voice when he spoke...how could it be fake?

If it wasn't for a Xiao Lou who suddenly connected her with "Talk of Heart" today, she would have never doubted the authenticity of Xiao Lou in front of her.

On the first day she entered the secret room, she met Xiao Lou.

According to the setting, Xiao Lou is her elder brother, the heir to the mermaid kingdom, and Liu Qiao is the mermaid princess.

Since several human bones were found on a shipwreck in the depths of the ocean, they launched an investigation into this case. The investigation is currently in trouble, and they only found out that the shipwreck does not belong to the Azure Empire...

But now, another Xiao Lou told her that there are replicants in this world?

Liu Qiao was in a daze, she continued to communicate with Xiao Lou with a tacit understanding: "How can I trust you?"

Xiao Loudao: "I have the card of Qin Guan, and I can establish a heart-to-heart relationship with you. Isn't that enough proof?"

Liu Qiao said calmly: "Professor Xiao, whom I know, said that on the first day he came to the Chamber of Secrets, when he went to investigate the sunken ship at the bottom of the sea, the card package was stolen, so he has been unable to contact the Shangyu team."

Xiao Lou: "..."

Liu Qiao's words made Xiao Lou feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

This replicant actually knows the card pack and Yu Hanjiang's name?It is impossible for people in the secret room world to know their team so well. The only explanation is——

Xiao Lou next to Liu Qiao is most likely the hunter!

Seeing Xiao Lou's face suddenly turned pale, Yu Hanjiang hurriedly held his hand and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?"

Xiao Loudao: "I connected to Liu Qiao, but she said that Professor Xiao was sitting opposite her. That person knew the situation of our teammates very well, and even made up an excuse that the card package was stolen so he couldn't contact Han Jiang."

Ye Qi opened his mouth wide, his jaw almost dropped: "It means that there is another Xiao Lou beside Liu Qiao?! She believes in that Xiao Lou, but doesn't she believe in you?"

Xiao Lou shook his head: "No, she has doubts about both of them now. After all, the excuse made up by Xiao Lou can also be explained. The card bag was stolen, and it may be stolen by me... More importantly, That person knows our team's information like the back of his hand, and I suspect that No. 4 Xiao Lou is the hunter."

Lu Jiuchuan's face was ugly. He clenched his fists and said through gritted teeth: "Could it be that the hunter has already found out the situation of our team?!"

Tang Ci said: "Last week, they sent people to follow us at the tomb of Zhou Chang's headless general. Although Xiao Liu and I became the size of a thumb at the time, Long Sen and Qu Wanyue used chameleon cards to integrate with the environment... But before that, maybe they have figured out our team's configuration in a way we don't know?"

Lu Jiuchuan added: "Even know most of our cards?"

Tang Ci's eyes seemed to be frozen. He looked at the dark sea in the distance, and said word by word: "The intelligence agency's information may have been leaked."

Everyone gasped.

Tang Ci's intelligence bureau database has information on all challengers, including their team-mates.

In the beginning, Lu Jiuchuan found Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou by relying on Tang Ci, the information network of the Intelligence Bureau, to invade the official household registration information office of the card world, find out the ID numbers of all the "outsiders", and follow the clues to find the challenger.

Tang Ci said expressionlessly: "In order to reorganize the team, Brother Nine once again challenged the S-level secret room to return to the real world. After seeing the news that 'Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou broke the world record for 3 hearts', he asked me to follow the two closely." So, on the day you two came to Moon City, Gui Lao sent someone to pick you up at the airport."

Xiao Lou naturally remembered this incident. At that time, they still suspected that there was something wrong with Gui Lao, but later found out that Senior Gui was Brother Nine's teammate.Xiao Lou looked back at Tang Ci, and asked, "Mr. Tang, what you mean is that you have detailed information about me, Han Jiang, and all the teammates on our contract?"

Tang Ci nodded: "Yes."

Otherwise, Lu Jiuchuan would not be able to rest assured to form a team with them.

Lu Jiuchuan smiled bitterly and said: "Sorry, I can't blame Xiao Tang for this matter, it's all my idea. Han Jiang and Xiao Lou set world records many times. I naturally believe in your abilities, but I'm not familiar with other teammates after all, so , I have also checked the information of other people in your contract in detail..."

Ye Qi said: "Ninth Brother's idea is correct, right? Before forming a team, check the situation of other teammates. This is also the responsibility of the team. Form a team casually to pass through the level. If there is a scam in the team, it may drag everyone down. , Let everyone be wiped out."

Lu Jiuchuan patted Xiaoye on the shoulder: "It's good if you can understand. Last time we were almost wiped out in Plum Blossom J. This time, I have to be more cautious in reorganizing the team, so I asked Xiao Tang to sort out your detailed information... cards, as well as your identities and jobs in reality."

Shao Qingge narrowed his eyes: "So, Mr. Tang suspects that this information was obtained by hunters?"

Tang Ci said: "I was worried about data leakage at the time, and I deleted it after reading it with Brother Jiu. But since I am a hacker and can invade other people's computers, then my computer may also be implanted with viruses by others." He lowered Head, said softly: "Sorry, this matter is my negligence."

Lu Jiuchuan gently put his arms around his shoulders, but did not speak.

Tang Ci experienced the most terrifying nightmare in the secret room. He watched his legs being cut off, and his mobility was restricted for half a year in a wheelchair. It is difficult for people who have not experienced it personally to empathize with him.

It is also human nature for him to be strict with his teammates who form a team again, and he wants to find out the details of everyone.

As for the data leakage, it was not the result he wanted.

Of course Lu Jiuchuan would not blame Tang Ci, but he was afraid that other teammates would have opinions on Tang Ci. After all, the information was probably leaked from Tang Ci...

Yu Hanjiang whispered: "Now is not the time to pursue responsibility. Even if the information in Mr. Tang's computer is not stolen by the hunter, the hunter organization still has other channels to find our information. In this world, you are not only a hacker , If you can find out, others can also find out. You don’t have to blame yourself, and everyone won’t blame you.”

Tang Ci's heart warmed, and he looked up at Yu Hanjiang: "Thank you."

Lu Jiuchuan gave his younger brother an appreciative look, and said, "That's right, the hunters will always have a way to find our information. Let's think about it first, how to solve the current problem?"

"If Liu Qiao doesn't believe in Professor Xiao and believes in replicators, it will be terrible!" Ye Qi scratched her hair anxiously, suddenly her eyes lit up, and she turned to look at Shao Qingge: "By the way, don't we still have one more time?" Does Zhang Qin watch the card? We also connected to Liu Qiao and told her through the spiritual channel that Professor Xiao who is with us is the real one!"

Shao Qingge nodded, took out the Qin Guan card he copied earlier, and established spiritual communication with Liu Qiao.

However, a prompt suddenly appeared in his floating frame: "The card skill release failed, and the card skill shielding magnetic field appeared within 10 kilometers." Almost at the same time, Xiao Lou also received a prompt: "The connection of the heart has been interrupted, 10 A card skill shielding magnetic field appears within a kilometer."

Xiao Lou's face changed: "Our connection with Liu Qiao is likely to be discovered by the other party. The 'Xiao Lou' next to Liu Qiao has a very powerful card that can block the skills of other cards in a large area. "

Everyone: "..."

When they were in the imperial palace, Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang could still connect with each other outside the palace - the palace only forbids the use of new cards, and the skills that have been used are still in effect.

But now, the card's shielding of the magnetic field actually makes the activated skills lose their effect?

This is the strongest hunter they have ever encountered. The key is that the other party still has Xiao Lou's face...

Ye Qi worriedly said: "It's over, the other party has noticed that we are using cards, so Liu Qiao will be fine, right?"

Xiao Lou said calmly: "The stronger the skill, the more restrictions there will be on the use of the card. The magnetic field shielding of a large-scale card will definitely not last too long. Otherwise, the hunter can destroy all our cards with this card. cards, we have no chance of winning at all.”

Lu Jiuchuan agreed: "Skills with a large range and strong effects should last within 10 minutes."

Shao Qingge looked at the gray heart on Qin Guan's card, and said regretfully: "It's a pity that the heart has failed to release, the cooling time will be 24 hours, and it can be used again in the early morning of tomorrow..."

Xiao Loudao: "Me too, this skill is released once every 24 hours, and it will be released in the early hours of tomorrow when it is interrupted."

In 24 hours, what if "Xiao Lou" attacks Liu Qiao and the others?

Liu Qiao should be wary of this Xiao Lou now, but after all, he has Xiao Lou's face, so he is hard to guard against.What's more, if Senior Gui and Lao Mo are also in the Mermaid Clan, they still don't know that Xiao Lou is a replicant. If Xiao Lou, who has already won their trust, stabs a knife in the back, wouldn't Gui Yuanzhang and Mo Xuemin be arbitrary? butchered?

The more Xiao Lou thought about it, the more anxious he became.

For every second of delay, teammates may be more dangerous.

What should I do?

Xiao Lou lowered his head and thought about it carefully, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "I almost forgot that I still have Su Shi."

Ye Qi said: "Su Shi? I remember that he has a skill called Dongpo Meat. The Dongpo Meat is especially delicious?"

In addition to Dongpo meat, Su Shi's strongest skills are actually 1 and 2 skills.

1 skill: When is the moon coming? Turn the current scene into a full moon night, forcing everyone in the scene to enjoy the moonlight for 1 hour, and the full moon night will last for 8 hours before dawn. This is currently the only scene transition card.

2 Skill Eternal Romance - All character cards within 100 meters around you immediately reset the skill cooldown.

Su Shi is equivalent to the captain of the character card, which can refresh the skills of all character cards.

Qin Guan's telepathy has cooled down at this time, and he can no longer establish spiritual communication with Liu Qiao, but Su Shi can immediately refresh Qin Guan's skill cooldown.

Su Shi's two limited skills can only be released once in each secret room, and now it has reached the most critical moment.

Xiao Lou said decisively: "When the card's magnetic field shielding ends, I will summon Su Shi."
