Infinite Room Escape

"caught you."

At the same time as the sound sounded, the black thread jumped out like a spirit snake, and quickly wound up.Arrogant raised his head in amazement, only to find that those black threads looming in the air, as if all their energy was spent on strangling the suicide crowd, quietly formed another smaller, more refined, and more powerful one against that person. net.

The net of wires is overwhelming.

Behind this small net, the black lines distributed in other areas also form a net at the same time.Weaving nets, wires connecting wires, one after another, all the escape gaps are tightly blocked in a few breaths.

No matter who it is, it's hard to fly.

The person who was about to leave was blocked, and stopped his movements helplessly.Su Zili seemed to hear a faint sigh, and under their gaze, he finally raised his head slowly.

Su Zili took out the binoculars and took a look, and caught a very ordinary face.

He looked old, his tanned face was covered with fine lines, his hair was gray, he was wearing a blue cloth jacket that he did not know where to find, and his hunched back made him likely to be overwhelmed by the crowd at any time.

It was just such a middle-aged and elderly man who looked so frail and old that he could easily overthrow it. He stretched out his hand, and blocked it in a flat way, and put the covered network card in mid-air, so that it could no longer cover it down.

"锃-"

The sound of being pulled like a tight steel wire kept ringing.

Around the man, a transparent semicircle was stretched out, blocking all the black lines around him, and he couldn't move forward even half a step.

The two sides formed a strange stalemate.

At this moment, Su Zili heard a scream.

"Fuck, old Wang, what are you doing?!"

Who is this?Su Zili was stunned for a moment, and then he connected the word Lao Wang with the equally ordinary face in his memory. Twenty minutes ago, he was still checking the corpse with a group of people on the grass. Last night The boss also checked the excavation time in the cellar, and told them a bad story by the way.

——He is the forensic player.

Su Zili didn't understand why it took so long, he followed the group of people in a daze, as if he had been possessed by an evil spirit, and was about to jump down with his legs open.If it wasn't for the player closest to him noticing something was wrong, he reached out to give him a hand in time, and he probably would have gone down like this.

The height of these seven or eight floors is no joke.

Don't look at those jumping around so happy, it's because they have all died once.The first time is raw and the second time is cooked, and the third time does not blink, anyway, it is not real meat.

But with a real person... that is the real death scene.

Everyone here has experienced death, friends, relatives, strangers, everyone, everyone has an unknown past.After coming here, there were also people who showed up on the first night to say hello to Su Zili, but never showed up again.Even if it's wrong, they do exist.

No one discussed this issue too much, even their acquaintances just casually took out some things left by the other party, stuffed them into the soil on the other side of the hotel, and buried a small soil bag.

This counts as farewell.

Before coming in, it was the meal that Di Rang invited Su Zili to dinner. He sat in front of the window for a long time in silence, and defined the people who came in—they were heroes.

Put life and death aside, no nostalgia, no sorrow, no fear.

Before they came here, they were already mentally prepared to die here.Everyone, including Zhou Linglan and Zhao Yangyang, wrote a suicide note and gave a copy to each of their friends. If someone died, they would help to bury it.

But they cannot accept the death of their companions as suicide.

The one who brought Lao Wang back didn't say anything, and slapped him with a big slap in the face. After the slap, his eyes seemed to be still loose, and his mind was still unclear, so he slapped him a few more times. .

"Have you recovered?

"Pharaoh?"

"Come and see me, how much is this?"

Old Wang looked at him, his eyes straightened, and he seemed to wake up after a two-second delay: "...Do you know how much hair you just pulled out of me?"

That player: "???"

"When is it that you still have the mind to argue with me about this?" He was shocked and said, "Do you know that you almost jumped down from here just now, and almost looked exactly like the row lying on the ground, blending into one gone."

"I know, I've touched many of these."

Old Wang said slowly.

Listening to him, he seemed to be completely awake.But looking at his face, I feel that he still hasn't recovered from the illusion that bewitched him.His face was pale, and even his lips were so white that it was not normal.

Even though he was talking to someone, his eyes wandered to a distant place in a misty way, where they landed loosely.

"I appreciate you, but... I really don't have much hair left."

He sighed and chattered in a moderate voice: "I went to be a forensic doctor after graduation. When I was young, I was timid. It was the first time I saw a dismembered corpse. When I smelled it, I bowed my head and vomited it out. I stained the clothes of the old master who took me. I have experienced a lot of things later, so I won’t vomit anymore, and I can even eat a bowl of boxed lunch just like that, but my hair really can’t come back. It was getting less and less every year, and before I realized it, it became the evolutionary state of the Mediterranean Sea today."

He felt a little heartbroken: "That one of yours took away at least a week's worth of me."

It was a young man who held him back. He had just graduated from the ivory tower, and he was not engaged in any kind of job that hurt his hair. He didn't know how precious the black and thick hair on his head was.

Hearing Lao Wang's words, he was very frightened: "Old Wang, what do you mean by that? It sounds so strange. Now that the enemy is at hand, cheer me up, don't suddenly suppress the clouds!"

Lao Wang didn't speak, and showed him a smile.

Then, he turned around and jumped down amidst the exclamations of the crowd.

"Fuck!"

Among all the exclamations, Zhao Yangyang's voice was particularly loud.

Su Zili saw with his own eyes that he took a sudden step, and his legs elongated nearly twice in a strange way. After stepping out and retracting his legs, the muscles in his legs trembled twice, a bit like jelly.

It's a bit like...One Piece.

Can Zhao Yangyang's Secondary [-] skills still be used like this?

At this moment, many people tried to reach out to grab someone, but the only one who could catch up was Suzi Li Hexuan, and even Zhao Yangyang was a step too late to catch Old Wang's hand.

The slender black thread quickly wound around, hooked Lao Wang's waist, and hung him in mid-air.

Zhao Yangyang was lying on the railing on the edge of the roof, like the heroine jumping off a cliff in a TV series, and the hero is pulling her, the posture is very classic.Supporting the wall with both hands, he poked his head and saw Lao Wang's body spinning in a small circle following the black line, and he breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Scared me to death, I thought..."

Before he could speak, the breath was sucked back by him.

"Damn it! The thread is loose!"

"Surong, you look at the line, it seems that someone has opened your line! Hurry up and drag people up, and the person is going to fall!"

He turned around in exclamation, and wanted to call the two big men to take out a string and bring him up directly.But when his eyes met them, those blurted words automatically choked back.He found that the two of them had already climbed onto the roof at some point, and they were standing on the other side, looking coldly at the old Wang hanging below, without a trace of tension on their faces.

He didn't want to pay attention to him at all.

The black thread tied to Lao Wang's life was still slowly relaxing bit by bit.

They are intentional.

Zhao Yangyang seemed to be soaked by a basin of ice water over his head in the cold winter months. He suddenly remembered a rumor that appeared after Su Zili disappeared and He Xuan became a solo player.

[Suzi Li Hexuan is with You Yu. 】

One of them played a red face and the other played a bad face, making troubles everywhere, just to promote the development of the game.All initial players who have a certain understanding of the game can see that the initial game is not perfect, it is gradually improving and updating, and it has become what it is now.

In this change, many people died.

Su Zili and He Xuan are the introductions to promote the update.

They have long since turned to the game.

When this rumor came out, it caused a lot of waves, but in the end it was suppressed by others, and no one mentioned it again.Because everyone found out that Su Zili really didn't appear again, and He Xuan's grief didn't seem fake, and there were many bugs in the game at that time.

In the turmoil that year, no one seemed to benefit.

If they're a gang, they don't have to make themselves that way.

But what if they are only for a while?

Zhao Yangyang felt cold all the way from the soles of his feet to Tianling Gai, and felt that if this was the case, then all of them could tidy up now and choose a good-looking urn for themselves.

Isn't this fucking dead? !

"What are you thinking about with the grave expression on your face?"

Someone slapped him on the head suddenly, Zhao Yangyang raised his head and found that Zhou Linglan was looking at him worriedly: "Lao Wang was rescued, why did you become like this, could it be that you got too close to him just now and got infected?" Bar?"

"This thing is not a virus, how could it be infected?" Zhao Yangyang complained subconsciously, and then instantly realized what he said, "Lao Wang was rescued? He didn't fall?!"

"Aren't you lying here? Look down for yourself."

Zhao Yangyang lowered his head in a daze, and didn't see the bloody and miserable scene he imagined, but only saw a loose black thread still hanging on Lao Wang's waist.Old Wang was fine. Realizing this, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then raised his heart.

A man cannot stand upright unless he is suspended, or something is supporting him underneath.

Although the thread on Lao Wang's waist was not loose, it was not hanging. It was loose to the side for a long time. Looking at it from his angle, it was obvious that what Lao Wang was stepping on was supporting his whole body. No fall.

But that thing is transparent, who has this ability?

An answer appeared subconsciously in Zhao Yangyang's mind. He turned his head and faced an old expressionless face.

"hiss--"

He gasped and took three steps back, only to realize that he had been tied up with black strings, and beside him stood a familiar-looking young man covered in blood and with several bones protruding from his body.

Who is this?

What happened?

A row of question marks floated slowly above Zhao Yangyang's head.

The players pulled people up in a hurry, and they didn't know if it was the reason why the key NPC was captured. Those people queuing up to jump down quietly dissipated, together with the door floating in the air. The arbitrary door is also gone.

Players suddenly feel that the surrounding space is much more spacious.

They also felt that something was wrong, their eyes wandered a few times around the left and right ends, they decisively shut their mouths and quietly prepared to be the melon-eaters next to them, thugs when necessary.

Although it is estimated that it will not be their turn to do it in the end.

But it doesn't matter, just be prepared.

The tied person lowered his eyes, his face was expressionless but he was clearly in a bad mood, with the calm look of you waiting for me to be free and hammer your head off.Su Zili and He Xuan just used a special method, using their skills to climb up to the rooftop. The speed is too fast, which will inevitably cause a little scratch on the skin on their hands.

The seriously injured one who looked like he was about to die was alive and kicking, standing next to the tied person with a tangled expression, as if he had encountered an eternal problem.

In the end, it was Pharaoh who was the first to break the silence.

After recovering from the feeling of falling, he stood up and cupped his hands to the one who was bound: "Thank you for your willingness to lend a helping hand and save my life."

"Don't you know whether it's going to be saved or not?" The man lowered his eyes, didn't even lift his eyelids, and choked up when he spoke, "You guys are trying to plot against me, but you can handle it."

What this means is...

The others looked at each other in blank dismay, and their hearts were full of shit.

This is the next game of chess!

Obviously everyone is on the same set, why don't they know anything?It's not fair!

"This is not a last resort," Pharaoh thanked sincerely: "You know that we may be forcing you to take action, but you still saved me once. Thank you, I say It's still light."

The man was silent, and he didn't seem to be moved by Lao Wang's thanks.

After a moment of silence, he changed the subject and asked, "When did you find out?"

Except for just taking a second look on the rooftop, at other times, he thought he had no flaws. What made them anticipate the opportunity and dig holes for him in advance, or a series of tricks!

Forced him to come out, forced him to take action, and finally... threatened him.

Glancing at the crooked man standing beside him, he felt the arrogance with one long leg and one short leg. He was extremely reluctant in his heart, but he still had to admit that this guy could really pose a certain threat to him.

"It's not a discovery, it can only be said to be an inference."

Su Zili nodded his head, "I don't know if you remember me, but I remember that I have been here. I didn't go deep, I just went around the outside world. At that time, I had some guesses. In addition, we From some information asked by the aborigines, as well as the situation at the scene, it can be judged by comprehensive deduction, and you can be found here."

"Of course I remember you, and this man next to you."

The bound middle-aged and elderly NPC's face remained unchanged, but anger and heavy resentment burst out from all over.

"For so many years, you two have been the only ones who have come here twice a day to dismantle the secret room. Do you think I won't remember you?"

Su Zili: "...Do you need to say long time no see?"

The middle-aged and elderly people were so angry that they rolled their eyes: "No need! I wish I could never see you again."

"Then you just let us all go out," He Xuan interjected, "We don't really want to see you very often."

"Do you think it's that easy to let go?"

"I wasted so much effort trying to get him out, but this man ran in again! I think you didn't come in to save people, you just wanted to piss me off and demolish the secret room!"

"Wait," Zhao Yangyang and the others were shocked when they suddenly received the unexpected news, "You said Brother Su went out? Didn't he go missing and was locked up somewhere? Did he really go back?"

Meeting the excited eyes of everyone, Su Zili felt their desire to go home, he hesitated for a moment, and nodded.

"I did go out in the first place."

"Because I accidentally passed the level."

"Fuck????!!!!"

His sudden words shocked everyone.

In this endless cycle of secret room games, everyone feels that clearing the game and returning home is just a beautiful fantasy made by the game.It is impossible for them to go back, and the players who entered the SSS level secret room are all dead.

Unexpectedly, the facts brought them a shocking reversal, and someone could really go back!

Can they really go back?

Everyone's eyes on Su Zili were as hot as fire.

"Actually... clearing the game is not as difficult as you imagine." Su Zili paused for a moment, considering disclosing the truth that was hidden in his memory, "As long as you can meet the necessary conditions for clearing the game, even if you fail to get it from the SSS If you go out in a super small secret room, you can also successfully leave here."

"Because this condition of leaving is the foundation of the game and the premise of everything."

He clicked on a certain middle-aged and elderly person who was tied up and couldn't move, and then dropped another news that made everyone excited: "Let me introduce to you, this gentleman is surnamed Zhao and named Qiong. He used to be the owner of the game."

With a swipe, everyone slammed their heads in the direction of Zhao Qiong, with such force that they almost threw their heads off.

"This game actually has an owner?"

"Of course there will be. I paid for it." Zhao Qiong snorted coldly, and for the sake of this, he didn't continue to remain silent, so he simply took the microphone by himself and began to introduce Zeng.

"I used to be a suicide hotline answerer. I don't know if you have heard of this position. It is the kind of phone number that will appear when you search for suicide. If you call, someone will chat with you and tell you not to die."

"This position is very uncommon, and normally there is no recruitment at all."

"I worked as an operator for many years and listened to countless suicide calls. There are many people who are forced to live by reality, and there are many people who are forced by others to live, and there are some people... right? I know why I am still alive."

"It is true that we persuaded many people to go back, but there are also some people who just chatted with me before leaving. The most terrifying thing is that such people are the majority."

"I would love to save them, but there's nothing I can do."

Zhao Qiong sighed: "I studied psychology courses by myself, took a certificate, and later learned broadcasting, hoping to keep them as much as possible, but in fact, it is difficult for those who want to leave. It’s still a drop in the bucket.”

"Later, I cooperated and participated in a research. The content of the research was to make an escape game to stimulate players as much as possible and arouse their desire to survive. It sounds great, but in fact, after the game was made, there was no obvious problem. As far as the effect is concerned, several experimenters who came to the test said that it should be lost or lost, and nothing has changed."

"Later... the laboratory went bankrupt."

"This must go bankrupt," someone couldn't help complaining, "This game is so stupid, how can it cure diseases, this idea is really whimsical."

"Yeah, so they gave up."

Zhao Qiong recalled that she also felt that her mind was blocked by something at the time: "I just thought this game might be useful, and it was not easy to see them working hard for so long, so I bought this game. "

"Then... I'm in the game."

"What does it mean?"

Someone murmured in disbelief.

Everyone understood what he meant, but they couldn't accept it for a while.

The reason why the game that has cheated them for so long and killed so many people was designed in the first place was to save people? !

"This is too ridiculous!"

"I also think this is ridiculous, but as the only guinea pig who has ever left here, I can prove that what he said is correct." Su Zili reluctantly proved, "I did meet the requirements of the game, so I was able to go out. "

"any request?"

"One person was saved."

"That's okay? What's the standard for this?" Zhao Yangyang felt at a loss. "As far as saving people, I have saved many people. Why didn't I go out? Is it the location or the identity of the personnel? ?”

"All."

He Xuan pointed at their feet, "You can only leave here if all the post-conditions are fulfilled in the SSS-level secret room."

"The person to be saved cannot be a companion, the player cannot save the player, only the NPC must be saved, and vice versa."

Zhao Yangyang continued to ask: "Then if I push a person down now and rescue him before he falls to his death, can this behavior be regarded as saving a person?"

The players are gearing up and are ready to dig NPCs for experimentation.

"Of course not. Do you think it's that simple to be rescued? You have to really save a person. Please refer to the original intention of this game, which is to rescue people who have suicidal tendencies."

He Xuan and Su Zili were studying, and they spoke amazingly.

"Actually, one of you almost went out."

Ah? ? ?

Rows of small question marks floated up, and everyone looked at each other in confusion.

Who is so powerful?

Su Zili nodded Zhou Linglan: "Sister Linglan, you almost went out at that time, but... a little accident happened." Because the rescued Tangtang didn't hold on, it quickly dissipated.

The rescued person was gone, and the matter of rescue was judged to be invalid.

That's why she didn't go out.

"Me?" Zhou Linglan pointed at herself in puzzlement, and then she understood his prompt, her face instantly sank, "I knew... something happened to Tangtang, otherwise why didn't she show up for so long."

"Don't be too sad for her. In fact, she is luckier than many people." Zhao Qiong sighed: "At least she was saved, and before she disappeared, she received the most gentle treatment."

Zhou Linglan pursed her lips, her mood was still very low.

Everyone chatted on twitter for a long time, and after straightening out all the explosive information, they realized why Su Zili and the others came up so unceremoniously and tied Zhao Qiong into pork belly. They really wanted to make a big deal!

"It's useless if you force me," Zhao Qiong said with a stinky face, "I'm just the former owner of the game, and I had some privileges at the beginning. As time goes by, I'm just an old man who lives alone in the woods That's all."

"It's very modest of you to say that."

He Xuan comforted him: "I think threatening the game with you is very effective, we have tried it before."

Zhao Qiong: "..."

Get out!

"Then what should we do next?" Someone asked, "Are we really going to... threaten him?"

He Xuan: "I'll just say it casually, do you really believe it?"

Player: "..."

Gan!

If it weren't for the special circumstances, maybe they would really have a gang fight, and let He Xuan feel what it means that the power of a group cannot be ignored.

"The next step is to use both methods, and use the two methods together." Su Zili reluctantly pushed He Xuan away, and brought the topic back to the right track, "Zhao Wen? Do you have a computer with you?"

"I brought it with me, it's all in the bag."

"I have all my net worth and enough battery, God Su, just tell us what you want us to do!"

"I also brought a super easy-to-use keyboard, and the typing is excellent!"

The crowd yelled into a ball.

Su Zili waited patiently for them to finish speaking, and then patted his haughty shoulder.

"let's start."

The haughty face wrinkled into a bitter gourd.

He wanted to regret it.

I can't think of it.

But he couldn't say it, he couldn't slap himself in the face, and he didn't want to be tied up like pork belly.

Pride was lucky to Zhao Qiong's stinky face for a while. In his shouting "You are chaotic", he drilled out of this new body, forcing his discomfort and retreat, and drilled into Zhao Qiong's body. middle.

Zhao Qiong stopped immediately.

The whole person froze in place, his face was red and green, faster than the speed of traffic lights switching.

After holding back for a while, the sound of the game suddenly exploded.

[Data abnormality detected, recovering——]

[Recovery failed, the data has been disconnected and is being restored——]

Zhao Qiong trembled, opened her mouth and began to report the numbers.

Su Zili raised his eyebrows at Zhao Wen and the others: "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you write it down? The source code has been picked up for you, and by the way, the game has been disconnected. You can't break it, so I'm sorry for you. These computers and keyboards!"

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

Someone was irritated, roared angrily, took out the computer and started typing.

The sky is still gloomy, and even the moonlight has become extraordinarily stingy in the dark forest, only sporadic starlight is scattered down, bringing starlight to the sky.Looking down, on the empty rooftop, a dozen bright lights suddenly appeared out of the darkness.

Bai Yingying's light shone out, contrasting beautifully with the stars in the sky.

The source code is a long string of numbers, but sometimes when the report is over, Arrogance does not climb out directly after reading the numbers, but grits his teeth and stomps his feet, and continues to rush in.

He is forced.

But at this moment, what Su Zili told him kept circulating in his mind.

"As long as you can do this, you are truly arrogant."

"No one dares to challenge your majesty, because you are strong enough and powerful enough. Your arrogance is no longer a castle in the air, but genuinely full of arrogance because of your strength."

"Only the strongest are worthy of arrogance."

The scattered arrogance turned into a data stream and melted into a place where others couldn't go. There, jealousy, greed and hunger... Wait, everyone is waiting there, including those NPCs that Su Zili once met.

Some of them have completely dissipated, but as the core elements of the secret room, those remaining traces gathered together are enough for them to fight hard at this last moment.

The rustle of the game got heavier.

I don't know how long it has passed, it feels like a moment, and it feels like a reality has passed.

While everyone was waiting nervously, the sky suddenly turned dark.

In an instant, the world was cut off.

Everyone's feet were empty, and they fell uncontrollably.The dense darkness wrapped up, and the unprecedented bumps passed over, making Su Zili feel like he was going to be motion sick.

At the very end, he held He Hyun's hand.

Before he lost consciousness, he vaguely heard someone kissing him lightly on the face.

"Thank you for saving me, my love."
