infinite maze

The collection of clues was blocked, and the death rate was still unable to meet the standard. The little flame of hope seemed to be ruthlessly extinguished again. It was only the fifth day, but everyone felt unprecedented pressure. A ship sailing towards the unknown , surrounded by endless darkness, man-eating beasts lurking everywhere, safe houses are decreasing every day... All these seem to be leading them to a bloody way out.

"I declare in advance that if someone takes action against me, I will not show mercy. After all, she is a weak woman." Meizi Lian said with a smile.

The scene was silent. Indeed, the ten of them were not life-and-death partners, and some of them had conflicts with each other. Even if they could guarantee that they would not take the initiative to attack, how could they guarantee the actions of others.Once suspicion arises, the seemingly united team will fall apart.

Everyone can guess the consequences of this, but can't do anything about it.

"Are we really passers?" Mei Ziyi asked.The others were taken aback when they heard the words, and turned to look at Mei Ziyi, waiting for his explanation.

"The boat on the surface of the water, except for ten of us, the other passers-by were eventually assimilated into NPCs without memory. If it was on the water, the death rate of the passers-by was indeed triggered by the death of the ten of us, but the underwater ship Ships on the water correspond to each other." This also means that some definitions are reversed, such as white and black.

Everyone in the team was silent for a moment, thinking about the possibility of Mei Ziyi's conjecture. Ever since Mei Ziyi's spaceship was conjectured, everyone's senses towards Mei Ziyi were very contradictory. Big and small bets.

"Can you tell me more about it?" Feng Tianqing asked.

Mei Ziyi nodded slightly, "Yes, a more obvious place is day and night. Our daytime on the water is 12 hours, that is, from 24:[-] am to [-]:[-] pm. Here, the dark day is [-] hours. Although it seems to us that it is always dark, the actual time is from [-]:[-] am to [-]:[-] pm, and from [-]:[-] pm to [-]:[-] am the next day."

"I met Captain Rabbit at night. Not only the captain, but also many animal people, but the next day, they didn't know me at all, and they didn't remember the hunting process at night. Do you feel familiar? It's like being on the water without the passers-by for the 12 hours at night."

For a moment, a chill ran up everyone's spine, yes, the most obvious difference between the two ships is day and night, and the time is not equal.Thinking of a certain possibility, Ankang couldn't help rubbing his stomach, "I remember that on the water, there was only steak to eat at first, and a lot of delicacies were added later."

"It's the same under the water surface. At first, there was only steak, and later new delicacies were added. Those delicacies were obtained by NPCs through hunting at night, but NPCs will lose their memory of hunting at night at dawn, so from the perspective of NPCs, this world It may also be a 12-hour system, and our identities have been swapped with NPCs." Feng Tianqing understood what Mei Zi wanted to express, and after thinking it through, some cryptic hints began to become clear, except for black and white swaps, there are still human beings in the food chain. exchange of status.

"Just like under the water surface, the newly added delicacies on the water surface are obtained by the passers who hunt NPCs at night, and the passers who eat too much NPC meat gradually become NPCs, what the hell! Kill the NPC!" Yu Lihai rubbed his arms, feeling very bad.

"Probably not." Xu Wenli comforted, "We only eat steak, which means we don't need to hunt new prey."

Regardless of whether Xu Wenli's speculation was true or not, everyone took this comfort.

"If the identity is reversed, then we are actually NPCs now, so the condition of 50% mortality rate will not be triggered. Unless we kill half of the animal people, we will not be able to trigger the gate at all." Yu Lihai frowned. Too high, but somewhat more acceptable than cannibalism.

Although Ankang wanted to pass the customs quickly, he had to weigh the feasibility of this road. "In the beginning, there were 100 passers, 100 ordinary passengers, and 100 staff members. Even if all passers persisted, they would face a one-to-two situation. Now we only have 10 people left, and the animal people have been strengthened, even a rabbit has explosive combat power."

Lianmeizi murmured for a while, but everyone felt that she was actually laughing, "This is really terrible, a weak woman like me should continue to look for clues."

"But in the past five days, we have searched everywhere we could." Xu Wenli was a little irritable when she mentioned this, her eyes were almost blind in the past five days, and she seemed to be looking for differences every day in her dreams, but the clues she found were very limited.

Mei Ziyi's mind suddenly flashed that mysterious person, and she felt blessed for a moment, and vaguely guessed something, "Let's gather in a safe house tonight."

"Why?" Yu Lihai didn't suspect that Mei Ziyi had any conspiracy, but gathering everyone in one safe house would speed up the compression of the safe house, and it was inevitable to change the safe house at night.

"I have a guess. If it is correct, the door to clear the level may be triggered tonight, or an important clue to clear the level may be obtained." Mei Ziyi did not directly say it, because there is no direct evidence like the previous guess of the spaceship.

"It's that mysterious person." Yun Cishu said with a smile.

"Yes." Mei Ziyi didn't deny it, but she didn't say anything more.

The others agreed one after another, but they were all thinking about the mysterious man in the rumors. They heard the prompt from the mysterious man on the first day, but this invisible man didn't like to talk, he didn't show any aggression, and he didn't like it. No affinity was shown, and even in the next few days, they didn't know if this person was still there.

Indeed, if there is anything on this ship that they have not come into contact with, it is probably the mysterious man who only hears his voice but does not see him. This person seems to be very good at hiding, at least none of them have had direct physical contact with the mysterious man .

That night, the ten people gathered together again, ready to enter the same safe house. Mei Ziyi stood at the front, holding the number plate to open the door, but did not move for a long time.When the bell rang at six o'clock in the night, everyone's hearts skipped a beat and their scalps tingled uncontrollably, but Mei Ziyi still didn't move.

Until there was a sound from the depths of the dark corridor, the hunters who took advantage of the night began to move, the footsteps were getting closer, and they seemed to feel the white fangs approaching.

The ten people in the team were tense, but no one urged them. During this period of getting along, they at least had basic trust in Mei Ziyi.

In such a tense atmosphere, the ten people clearly heard a voice that did not belong to the team, "Quickly open the door."

They also heard this sound when they came to the underwater cruise ship on the first day, and it was a similar scene, but they were nervous at the time and didn't notice it immediately.Now that they heard this voice clearly, everyone almost jumped away.

Mei Ziyi touched the doorknob, "Can we talk later?"

"Hmm." In the silence, a feather-light answer sounded, and if you don't listen carefully, it will be easily overlooked.

Only then did Mei Ziyi open the door, and everyone quickly walked into the safe room and closed the door before being discovered by the animal man.The tranquility was restored in the safe house, and everyone felt uncomfortable, for fear that there was an invisible person standing beside them.

"Can we talk now?" In the end, it was Mei Ziyi who broke the silence. Everyone held their breath and listened to the response in the space.

As a result, there was a weak response from the corner of the room, "Okay." Poor Xixi actually looked a little weaker than Lian Meizi.

Everyone felt a little subtle for a while, and this mysterious person seemed to be different from what they imagined.

Afterwards, everyone approached the corner of the wall where the sound came from. Although they couldn't see it, they all wanted to see the true face of this mysterious man.As a result, just as everyone was seated, that weak voice sounded from another corner of the living room, "Don't, come, get so close."

Everyone "..."

In the end, the two sides maintained a friendly diagonal position, and the dialogue continued.

"I remember, Mei Ziyi, it sounds very nice." The weak voice sounded from the corner, obviously he still remembered the short conversation with Mei Ziyi in the safe house not long ago, and remembered Mei Ziyi's self-introduction.

"Thank you, how about you?" Mei Ziyi also asked his name before, but he didn't answer at that time.

This time, the mysterious man also fell silent. Just when Meizi thought he would not answer this time, a voice from the corner hesitantly said, "Bru 3031."

The living room was a bit quiet. Mei Ziyi was surprised by the word Bru. If I remember correctly, in the captain’s cabin, the staff called the pursuer Bru. The shy and reserved person in front of me turned out to be the chase ?

"What does 3031 mean?" Ankang asked in puzzlement. If Bru is a name, why should four numbers be added after it, like a code.

Blue 3031 didn't answer, and he didn't seem to know the answer to this question, because for him, Blue 3031 was his name.

"Bru, why are you following us?" Xu Wenli asked, and quietly reached for the flashlight, but the sound of Bru's voice made her dismiss the idea.

Bruce replied in a low voice, "It's Bruce 3031, find Milu and go home."

This voice is really not offensive, but being pitiful is easy to make people's hearts soften. Lianmeizi was instantly moved and hummed, scaring Bruce 3031 for a long time.

Lianmeizi wiped her tears and said, "This voice is too poking at me, I can't do it anymore, who are you looking for, Little Bru, I will help you!"

The voice was a little weaker, and he carefully corrected, "It's Bru 3031." After a while, he added, "Look for Milu, go home."
