The Easter Egg Game

Before him was a terrifying hell on earth.

The world as far as they could see was painted with bloody scarlet, the ground was covered with rotten flesh, and two rows of blood-stained ribs more than ten meters high protruded from the flesh, as if two columns of colonnades stood in front of their eyes, bending But his ribs were filled with deeply decomposed corpses one after another.

Looking forward, a nearly ten-meter-tall skeleton was soaked in dirty blood, and a scarlet octopus-like monster wriggled wantonly in its eye sockets and nasal cavity, as if this was its favorite playground.

Zhang Sijia looked around nervously, and found Zuo Linyuan not far away, but Lin Jue was nowhere to be seen.

What about others?

What is going on with this illusion?

As if being in the rotting corpse of an ancient giant beast, Zhang Sijia was terrified by this terrifying scene. The world in front of her was too terrifying, even the most terrifying nightmare would not have such a scene—the scarlet sky was constantly falling. "Little rain", dripping on the ground, this is not transparent rainwater, but sticky and smelly bloody water.On the white ribs standing upright in the sea of ​​fleshy bones in front of him, the pierced corpses displayed the struggle and mourning of the last moment of life in various hideous postures.

Despair, hatred, distortion, pain, destruction, madness... The world in front of you interprets such themes with piles of blood and flesh.

Is this an illusion?But isn't the player's illusion constructed based on the scenes in his memory?Where did this hellish world come from?

"He's there!" Zuo Linyuan suddenly said, and quickly drew his arrow to aim. The arrow flew towards the wriggling octopus in the bloody hell, and hit the octopus' eye with one arrow.

The octopus swimming among the skeletons made a weird scream, and with the scream, it quickly "jumped" up from the spot, revealing Lin Jue's body that was covered by its body.

Lin Jue sat in the broken skull, looking at them expressionlessly.And that huge octopus didn't seem to feel his existence, and didn't have the slightest desire to attack him!

How can this be?Is there something on him that can make monsters ignore him?

By the way, when exchanging skill and item information in the square, Song Hanzhang said that the one-time items of the two previous rounds had been used up, so they only had one skill or item at hand.At that time, he felt very suspicious, but for the sake of temporary cooperation, he didn't point out this point, but secretly guarded against it.

Does Lin Jue really have such props?

Zuo Linyuan drew the bowstring, ready to shoot the second arrow, Zhang Sijia said anxiously: "No, he might still be hypnotized!"

If the arrow failed to kill him, it would instead awaken Lin Jue from his hypnotized state.

Want to gamble?Zhang Sijia is also not sure if Lin Jue has escaped the hypnotized state at this time. Is it because he hypnotized Lin Jue, which caused the confusion in his brain, so this world composed of Lin Jue's sea of ​​consciousness is so absurd fear?

Or because of Song Hanzhang?But did Song Hanzhang's death have such a terrible impact on him?

Zhang Sijia decided to take a gamble, and he chose the most favorable order: "Stand up and put down your weapons."

Lin Jue, who was sitting on the pile of bones among the skeletons, stood up slowly and let go of his hands.

The spear fell into the bloody puddle, splashing a pool of water.

It succeeded, he really did not get rid of the hypnotized state!

Zhang Sijia was so excited that her heart was beating wildly: "Come here, come to my side."

Lin Jue was like a puppet controlled by a string, walking towards him stiffly, but as he moved, the giant octopus that had been hiding in the skull crawled out, and followed Lin Jue slowly , moving closer to them, the long spear that was thrown on the ground was also pushed forward by the octopus' tentacles, and kept rolling forward.

Zuo Linyuan had already aimed his arrow at Lin Jue, and was ready to shoot an arrow in his chest at any time, but he hesitated because of the monster behind Lin Jue. If he shot this arrow, he would be delayed for a few minutes if he wanted to draw the bow again. Seconds, he was still not sure how fast the octopus monster was, so he didn't dare to take risks easily.

At this moment, the ground under his feet suddenly shook violently. Under the blood-colored ground that seemed to be paved with flesh, there was a wailing sound like an ancient giant beast, and the mountain shook in an instant.The soft "ground" oozes blood crazily, stepping on it is like stepping on a pile of rotten meat, and the red-black liquid bursts out with a "squeak".

"Be careful!" Zuo Linyuan found a gap in the ground at Zhang Sijia's feet. This gap was like a skin that had been cut open. Blood continued to flow out, and the scar was getting deeper and deeper. If you don't pay attention, you will be caught by it. swallow.He immediately ignored the octopus monster, let go of the bowstring and pulled Zhang Sijia back to the side.

But it was this retreat that gave the monster an opportunity to take advantage of!

It was originally slow and suddenly accelerated!Dozens of tentacles crawled quickly on the sticky and slippery ground, and they came to the two of them in an instant like skating!

not good!too close!Zuo Linyuan gave up his proficient bow and arrow, and switched to using a machete to slash at the octopus monster that was rushing towards them!This precise knife sliced ​​off two tentacles of the monster, and it screamed terribly. This deafening scream was so sharp that it made people's brains ache, and dizziness made their eyes spin.

The slashed octopus monster exploded with extreme aggressiveness, frantically waving dozens of tentacles, entangled the two of them and dragged them to the ground in an instant. No matter how quick a human's reaction was, it was impossible for a human to face such a powerful monster. Appears weak and feeble.

Zhang Sijia's brain was spinning fast, desperately trying to find the monster's flaws, but her chaotic brain was filled with countless fears.The octopus monster entangled his calf, pulling him to slide on the slippery fleshy ground, the pungent bloody smell seemed to be soaking his whole body in the pool of blood.

At a critical juncture, Zuo Linyuan cut off the tentacle wrapped around Zhang Sijia's calf, but he was wrapped up by the monster, and his head hit the white ribs full of corpses.This heavy blow made his head bleed, and the severe dizziness made him unable to get up from the ground for a while, and his eyes were black with blood melting.

Zhang Sijia, who got rid of the octopus monster, struggled to get up from the ground, and nervously called Zuo Linyuan's name, but the moment he got up from the ground, a feeling colder than ice suddenly pierced into his right lung , he froze in a daze.

The "ice" that pierced his body quickly exited his body, and the cold wound suddenly became scorching hot, as if hot liquid had slipped out from there, without feeling any pain at all.

Zhang Sijia turned her head in a daze, and met a pitch-black eye.

Like a cold night, like an abyss, like a world without light at the end of the netherworld.

Zhang Sijia fell to the ground, all the strength in his body was taken away by the wound, he couldn't make a sound and had difficulty breathing.

He didn't know how Lin Jue escaped from the hypnosis, he was obviously not injured, how could it be possible?Can human willpower really get rid of the control of skills?

When death really came before her eyes, Zhang Sijia's heart was full of unwillingness.

Obviously they should win, why?Why?Why? !

He questioned fate sadly, but it was meaningless. He was about to die, saying goodbye to this world forever.

What is the purpose of his life? !

He suddenly recalled the day when his fate turned around. He took the fancy easter egg from Zhou Yuxiu's hand, signed his name on the notebook, but stopped Zuo Linyuan: "If you sign, you will be with me." Like those people, disappear from this world, you don't need to take risks."

What did Zuo Linyuan say at that time?

"It's okay, I want to be with you," he said.

The touch of that moment, he engraved in his heart.

Zhang Sijia raised her head unwillingly, and Zuo Linyuan was not far away, lying in front of the row of towering ribs.He hadn't given up yet, and was struggling to get up. His eyes were darkened by the blood on his face and the aftereffects of the impact, but even in this desperate situation, his intuition was still working.

So when Lin Jue picked up the spear on the ground and threw it at him viciously, Zuo Linyuan, who couldn't see, moved instinctively—this movement allowed him to avoid the vital point in his chest, and the spear pierced through his collarbone, He was crucified on the towering bones.Zuo Linyuan spat out a mouthful of blood, and there was a buzzing sound in his ears, but he didn't even have the strength to pull out the spear.

Looking at this scene, Zhang Sijia's heart was broken, and the blood-soaked figure of Zuo Linyuan made him so frightened that he couldn't breathe.

The regret buried deep in my heart welled up in my heart, why did he enter this game?Why on earth did he waste his life in resentment and self-pity, destroying himself and those who loved him in vain?

The world is big, but there are very few people who love him. He has been desperately trying to win the affection of those who don't love him, but squandering the love of those who love him, until in the end, he has nothing.

At least... at least tell him that he...

Zhang Sijia couldn't speak anymore. The knife piercing his lung made every breath he took was a cruel torture. With a few steps, his fingers were embedded in the soft fleshy ground, and dirty blood gushed out. He stubbornly looked at the target not far away, and crawled forward with all his strength.

The octopus monster attacked again after a short period of calm, this time its target was Lin Jue whose odor eliminator had run out of time.

Lin Jue stood quietly in front of it, with only a bayonet found from Shan Liang's body in his hand.

But, this is enough.

When those dozens of tentacles crazily attacked him, the world in front of him had been slowed countless times. In his eyes, the complicated attack route was like a child waving a weapon indiscriminately. Use your strength, quickly avoid these tentacles that are advancing one after another, and easily break into the monster's close quarters.The army stabbed in his hand hard, pierced into the monster's flesh, and pulled down forcefully—the blood spurted out wildly, the furious monster struggled desperately in the blood, Lin Jue stabbed the right hand holding the bayonet expressionlessly. into the body of the monster.

The bayonet and arm broke through the tight flesh, pierced into the monster's heart, and stirred it vigorously.

That's it, one hit kill.

Lin Jue, who easily killed the monster, withdrew his hand, and his entire right arm was pulled out from the monster's corpse, it was bloody, and there was another nick on the back of his hand.He turned around and looked at Zhang Sijia who was still trying to crawl forward, he was almost crawling to Zuo Linyuan's side.

Zhang Sijia was dying, the knife that pierced his lungs made him unable to make a sound, even his breathing had almost stopped, the world in front of him quickly darkened, and the intense sleepiness was about to bring him into the abyss of death.

Just a little bit, just a little bit, Zhang Sijia could no longer see the surroundings clearly, only the phantom remaining in the blood-congested retina was guiding him to exhaust his last bit of strength.

There is only one belief left to support him: go to Zuo Linyuan, grab his hand, and tell him...

Tell him he likes him too.

It should have been said earlier, it should have been told to him!

Zuo Linyuan heard it, and the exhausted and desolate crawling sound echoed in his dying consciousness. He felt that the person he was thinking of was not far away from him. the sound of.

The heart-piercing pain was surging in Zuo Linyuan's heart, his Zhang Sijia shouldn't be in such a mess, he was always so distant, so arrogant, so arrogant, yet a gentle flower bloomed in his heart easily .He took care of her carefully, never daring to let him have the slightest bump, but what?But he couldn't protect him after all.

He didn't dare to think about Zhang Sijia's appearance, the helpless pain and long-standing inferiority made him lose his last courage - don't look, he doesn't want you to see his embarrassed appearance.

Let his love that never gets a response be buried here forever.

His consciousness became weaker and weaker, the death scythe was already on his neck, Zuo Linyuan could finally accept the coming of death.He suddenly felt that this was okay. In the face of love, they were never equal, but in the face of death, they were finally able to walk together.

Under the sunshine of September, the boy who walked into his heart at the first sight... But he never waited for the answer he expected in his whole life.

Zhang Sijia was exhausted, and the last sliver of faith that supported him ignited his body that had reached its limit.

It's getting closer, he stretched out his arms, almost reaching Zuo Linyuan's hand, the joy in despair has not yet come true, the nightmare has already come.

The enemy he wanted to kill, the enemy who stabbed him fatally, stepped on his hand.

It didn't hurt too much, but this kick made him lose the last bit of strength.

Zhang Sijia couldn't move anymore, just like every dying person, he breathed in with all his might, his mouth was full of blood foam, he fell to the ground, his cheek pressed against the ground, looking at the blood-stained legs.

He thought that Lin Jue would quickly make up for him, but after that kick, he continued to walk forward, as if the kick that fell on his palm just now was just an accident.

That was indeed a surprise.

Because, his target is Zuo Linyuan.

Tears flowed down unknowingly, Zhang Sijia watched the bayonet, which pierced Zuo Linyuan's heart neatly.

[In 2022, 1 person will be reduced, the number of survivors will be 3, and 14 marks will be transferred. 】It was like being stabbed in his own heart, Zhang Sijia's wound that didn't feel pain suddenly burst into tears and convulsions, he wanted to cry loudly and pour out all his regrets, but no one would listen anymore, the only one who loves him wins The people who did it all are gone.

But in the end, he still didn't have time to say that sentence.

It was too late, and the story came to an end in such a hurry.

The flame that had tried its best to warm him was extinguished, so he stopped breathing.

[In 2022, 1 person was reduced, the number of survivors was 2, and 9 marks were transferred. 】
