Being an Extra Actor in an Escape Game

The reasoning boss is probably a prophecy.

So far, the quest players have actually gone to a lot of floors by elevator.

If you don't count the two floors (or three?) full of lunatics and sea of ​​blood, then the taskers have at least been to the 20th, 21st, 24th, and 31st floors, and have gained some information respectively.

And that's not counting the information that Lingo and Wu Jian collected on the 16th floor.

At this moment, the two had reached the 15th floor.

The screens in the live broadcast room were not enough, Xu Beijin wanted one for himself, one for No. [-], No. [-], and No. [-] elevators, and one for Lingo and Wu Jian.

The audience started howling again that they couldn't watch it.

Xu Bei thought about it for a while, and felt that this kind of God's perspective really does not have the slightest sense of surprise, and complete spoilers will also make people get used to the mentality of being superior.

And he will not have such a God's perspective in the narrow building...

No, wait, that might not be the case.

Xu Beijin was stunned for a moment, then suddenly frowned.

He hasn't broadcast live in Narrow Building yet. To be honest, he doesn't know too well. If it is broadcast live in Narrow Building, will the scene list on the right side of the live broadcast room also be a dazzling mess of numbers?

However, he sincerely hopes that he will never live broadcast in the narrow building.

If he really chooses to broadcast the live broadcast in the narrow building, then it is only possible that it is the moment when he makes up his mind to kill the fish and the net, and burn the jade and the stone...

Xu Bei thought wildly, and was distracted for a moment, before he couldn't help but smile wryly.He used the drink can to cover the bitter curve of his lips, and lowered his eyes a little tiredly.

At this moment, he suddenly wanted to know, if in the future he still remembered the mental activities at this moment, what would he think?In the future, how will he recognize the hope of escaping from the narrow building brought by the live broadcast system?

And hope itself, perhaps, cannot help but become some kind of poison.

After a while, he came back to his senses, set the main perspective of the live broadcast room to the 15th floor where Lingo and Wu Jian were, and took the booing barrage in the live broadcast room as if he didn't see it.

... Among this group of taskers, he is most familiar with Lingo. Let's see what happened to Lino's exploration results first?Is there a problem?

No problem at all!

Xu Beijin felt very at ease.

On the screen of the live broadcast room, the situation on the 15th floor was clearly displayed in front of everyone.

It was like a typhoon blowing through the scene.Almost all the desks and chairs, as well as some other office supplies, were stacked on the side of the wall near the interior of the building, in a mess.

It's hard to say whether it was pushed by the shock wave of the sudden explosion that was like a catastrophe before, or it was thrown by someone casually, because...

There is a pair of tables and chairs, all alone, placed in the center of the emptied ground.

Standing there alone, under the light of the blazing fire that burns the city.

Even the huge impact that shattered the glass of the entire building, and the gray-black smoke that blackened all the window frames and exterior walls, didn't seem to make the desk and the office chair move in the slightest.

Lingo and Wu Jian entered from the stairwell on the right side of this floor, and they could scan almost the entire floor with just a glance.They noticed the emptiness of this floor in a certain sense, and they also noticed the dazzling pair of tables and chairs.

Wu Jian was puzzled and said, "Why did you put a table here? Who did it on purpose?"

Anyone who sees this scene for the first time has the same intuition.

Someone deliberately placed the pair of tables and chairs in the center of the ground.

They walk over.Wu Jian consciously went to look at other places on this floor, while Lingo stood behind the desk, raised his head, and looked at the scene outside the window.

He found that from here, he could clearly see the whole picture of the burning city outside the window.

Lingo looked on blankly.No matter how amazing the scene was, there was nothing to be astonished about for him.The city is burning, indeed.

But what does that have to do with him?

He just thought impatiently and unhappily, would he have to search floor by floor to find the owner of this nightmare?

But what if the owner of the nightmare is located below the 9th floor?

So don't you have to use the elevator?

Lingo couldn't help frowning, a little depression and irritability accumulated in his heart.

After a while, Wu Jian came back.He said: "There is no elevator on this floor, and the bathroom door is still locked. There are no other problems..."

Ringo suddenly asked: "If the owner of the nightmare is hiding in the bathroom..."

Wu Jian was startled, and then said in amazement: "Then get the property office that might exist on the first floor, and after getting the key... oh my god, it will take so much effort."

Ringo shook his head.

They plan to leave this floor and hurry up to explore below.

Before leaving, Ringo lost his temper again. When he walked over, he bumped into a chair, so he casually threw the chair towards the inner wall.

Seeing the table, he felt uncomfortable again, so he even threw the table over.

The entire floor was finally empty, all the desks, chairs and office supplies were piled up in the corners, and there were no more desks and chairs standing abruptly and securely in the center of the floor.

Ringo felt better.

He beckoned Wu Jian to leave, but Wu Jian stood there in a daze, staring at the center of the already empty ground and the pile of tables and chairs as if possessed.

Inexplicably said: "Boss, do you feel..."

Ringo looked at him inexplicably, without "feeling" at all.

But the audience in the live broadcast room easily understood Wu Jian's meaning.

"My mother!! Little Apple's act of throwing tables and chairs, and the pile of tables and chairs thrown in the corner...!!"

"So this is...'recurrence' again??"

"Looks like it is. But is it okay to take the stairs?"

"However, if the owner of the nightmare finds that the elevator buttons are so chaotic and random, is it normal to choose the stairs?"

"But... In this case, will the reappearance by taking the stairs be the same as the reappearance by taking the elevator, even if they are on the same floor?"

"I'm even more curious about throwing the table and chairs into the corner... Why did you do this? What happened to the owner of the nightmare? And, why is there a pair of tables and chairs in the middle, as if..."

"...It's as if the little apple was specially made to throw..."

"I didn't say, why are you all so calm, I'm almost scared to death (shivering)"

"Emm, this scene is easy for me to think that this kind of subtle 'sense of déjà vu' will also appear in reality, and many people think that it is a scene dreamed in a dream, repeated in reality. now……"

"... Qiuqiu, don't analyze it any more. If you analyze it again, I won't dare to dream today."

"Brain: big guts! Can you control whether you dream or not!"

"Then I'm begging you, babe."

Xu Bei glanced at the barrage in the live broadcast room and couldn't help but laugh.

The audience in the live broadcast room can always talk about the funniest topics on the most serious occasions.With such extraordinary talent, Xu Bei couldn't help but sigh that he was still wary of this group of audiences back then.

Even now, the number of his viewers has not increased much, and the total number has been controlled at about ten. It seems that, as the audience said, horror game live broadcasts are indeed not considered a popular topic in the outside world.

However, compared to his ambition when he first got the live broadcast system, the current live broadcast system only allows him to have a better understanding of the nightmare, and does not make any progress in the goal of escaping the narrow building.

Xu Bei could not help but sigh.

He thought of this nightmare again, and the various "déjà vu" and "reappearances" that appeared in this nightmare... Everything is fine.It was like something, hinting at the truth.

Not only the truth in the nightmare, but also the truth related to the narrow building outside the nightmare.

In fact, this kind of déjà vu had already appeared when the taskers appeared in this nightmare, but at that time, the taskers thought of "escape from the narrow building" because of the goal of "escape from the building". ".

... And the news of this nightmare first spread at the bottom of the narrow building, isn't it because some people speculated that this nightmare was related to the truth of the narrow building?

Xu Beijin inevitably felt a little bored and tired.He asked Dai Wu to make the taskers interested in this nightmare, but it seemed that the first batch of missioners who came in hadn't found the truth yet.

He glanced at the scene list on the right side of the live broadcast room, and found that a quester had arrived on a new floor, so he cut the camera there.

It was Jiang Shuangmei, Fei, and Shen Yunju. They came to the floor corresponding to the button on the first floor of the elevator.

At this moment, they have confirmed that there is no elevator on this floor, which is the 18th floor.Purely in terms of numbers, this is the lowest floor they have ever reached.

But they didn't have time to think about this at this time, because they met a living person on this floor.

...It is not necessarily possible to call this person a living person.

It was a sitting person, and on the desk in front of him was an object that was probably a corpse, and this person was using a utility knife to cut some meat from the object, then chopped it finely, and then Put it in the paint bucket next to you.

There is also a bucket next to it, which is probably filled with the blood from the corpse, and it is more than half full at this moment.

Most of the ceiling on this floor has been covered with the contents of the paint bucket.

Every now and then, something falls.So the man stood up tirelessly, climbed onto the ladder, and stuck it up again.He didn't seem to see the few people who came to this floor at all, but was doing his own work on his own.

Fei said dully: "So, what we saw on the 21st floor before..."

Jiang Shuangmei's voice was equally dry: "This madman... did it?"

The faces of these three taskers are like dead people.

They didn't expect to see such a magical, bloody and strange scene in this building. What's more frightening is that the people who did this kind of thing seemed to feel that they were doing something ordinary.

The three missionaries cast uneasy and fearful eyes at him, but he frowned nonchalantly, as if he thought that these three people were strange.

Jiang Shuangmei almost mustered up her courage before she uttered her own voice to this person: "You, how are you?"

The man put down the utility knife irritably, turned his head to look at Jiang Shuangmei and the others, his voice was cold and stiff: "What are you doing? Don't disturb my work."

"Work, work..."

The man said: "Yes. The previous disaster destroyed many facilities in our company's office building, and the job I was assigned was to re-paste the walls. I was already in a hurry, and I have only plastered one floor until now. There are so few damn ingredients!

"So, please don't bother me, okay?"

After he said a few words angrily, he picked up his utility knife again and continued his "work".

The three missionaries looked at each other.

Fei took a deep breath, her voice trembling slightly: "So, the job he was assigned was to paste the wall..." She almost couldn't help but vomited out, "This means, there are other jobs? so……"

nausea?

Jiang Shuangmei said frankly: "I used to think that the catastrophe they kept talking about was only in the physical sense, it might be a big bang or something, but..."

She looked at the work-addicted man with puzzled eyes.

Shen Yunju continued to say very cooperatively: "It seems that there is a little problem with their spirit."

Jiang Shuangmei said: "There is something wrong with their worldview. He regards such a strange job as a normal thing...is he really mentally ill?"

Fei opened her mouth, but didn't know what she should say.

She suddenly thought of another thing, about the original reason for her entering this nightmare.

In fact, she also thought at first that the burning city outside the building might be the so-called "doomsday" in this nightmare.And the manifestation of this doomsday is similar to what she experienced in the nightmare of the ruins before.

In short, some kind of natural disaster or man-made disaster caused a disaster in the physical sense, it might be an explosion or something else, and then civilization was destroyed, and human beings survived, fled, and struggled to survive in the ruins...that's all she could think of.

But she never considered whether the end would cause mental problems.

This may be a more invisible, but also more terrifying doomsday.

this nightmare...

But at this moment, she realized another thing.

Why are there rumors about this nightmare in the narrow building?

Indeed, she and Wu Jian were told about this nightmare by Mu Jiashi, and Mu Jiashi must be very familiar with this nightmare.

But since Mu Jiashi already knew so much, and had already told Fei and Wu Jian about this nightmare as some kind of transaction, then Mu Jiashi himself should not let this nightmare spread again.

And Fei and Wu Jian didn't tell anyone else about this nightmare.

Then why did this nightmare suddenly spread on the ground floor of the narrow building, and even attracted so many taskers?

After thinking for a while, Fei thought of it—it was a resident of the narrow building.

The news first came from the residents of the narrow building. A quester met a resident of the narrow building who muttered about the end, and then discovered the owner of this nightmare.

And the residents of the narrow building...?

What is the tasker's impression of the residents of the narrow building?Crazy, with all kinds of flaws, disabilities, mental problems... Their background is like this narrow building, dirty, gloomy, and deeply uncomfortable.

And this nightmare they're in now...

Scarlet stared deeply at the person sitting at the desk and meticulously completing his "work".

She thought, this person, this person who appeared in the nightmare, this-the victim of the doomsday-isn't it just like those crazy narrow-house dwellers?

The missionaries all know that some narrow-building residents often appear in nightmares.They regarded this as the fact that when the game party was making the game, in order to save resources, they specially used those character modeling wastes and added them to the nightmare, that is, the copy.

But... What if this is not recycling waste, but doing it on purpose?

What if the residents of these narrow buildings are the witnesses of the end?What if their insanity was due to this strange doom that might directly affect their psyche?

And if this is the case, then what is the status of these mission workers, the "outsiders" in the mouth of the residents of the narrow building?Are their identities and positions based solely on this game, just the settings in the game, or...

Outside of games?

What about their earth?

Fei was very worried, and felt as if there was a deep shadow hanging over them all the time.

She thought, this is like the gray fog that lingers all day, like the nightmare that goes on day and night, like the gloomy atmosphere in the narrow building... Surrounding them, even soaking their flesh and blood.

At this moment, Fei's silence did not attract the attention of the other two.Shen Yunju has always been like this, and Jiang Shuangmei also has no time to take this into consideration.

Jiang Shuangmei took out the paper that the young man handed her from her bosom. Unfortunately, the paper had already been soaked in the blood that poured into the elevator before, making it impossible to write on—the clothes on the three of them were still wet at this moment. Yes, his hands, face, and body were covered in blood.

It was the same with that pen, after being soaked in blood, it could no longer write.

The three taskers exchanged their opinions, then reluctantly returned to the elevator room, intending to return to the elevator.

But at this time, there was a ding sound in their ears, and an elevator reached the 18th floor.

The three missionaries exchanged glances in surprise, and ran towards the slowly stopping elevator at the same time.The elevator door opened slowly, and they saw that there was only one person in the elevator.

But before they had time to see who it was, they heard a scream and the elevator doors closed quickly.

"Hey, wait!" Jiang Shuangmei stretched out her hand anxiously, trying to prevent the elevator doors from closing, "It's us...!"

She gave up in vain.

The elevator door was closed, and Jiang Shuangmei saw her image covered in blood through the stainless steel outer safety door of the elevator.She couldn't help thinking, well, if it was her, the elevator door opened and the people outside looked like this...

and many more!

She was stunned suddenly, and subconsciously turned to look at Fei and Shen Yunju: "Do you feel that..."

She didn't ask the question, but when she saw Fei and Shen Yunju's expressions, she knew... yes, that's it, they also felt that way.

That subtle, peculiar... "recurrence."

Not long ago, when the elevator door opened, they saw a group of bloody lunatics rushing towards the elevator, and they closed the door in panic.

Now, they are playing the role of "bloody madman".

Jiang Shuangmei had a slight headache, she couldn't figure out why, and why this kind of "recurrence" often happened.The fact that this déjà vu occurs so often suggests that the situation is an important part of this nightmare.

But what does that represent?

Jiang Shuangmei couldn't help being silent, and when she spoke again, she decisively changed the subject: "The person in the elevator just now...was a witch? I feel like her voice sounds a bit like her."

"It's a woman." Fei said, "It might be her. But why did she separate from the other two?"

Jiang Shuangmei muttered: "Who knows..."

She thought slightly darkly, maybe the sorceress couldn't stand the arrogance of those two annoying ghosts anymore.

At this moment, Jiang Shuangmei suddenly heard a dull roar coming from her ears.She was startled, and subconsciously looked at the other two taskers.

Fei asked in surprise, "What's that sound?"

At this point, just an hour had passed since the nightmare started.

After another moment, the voice became more and more obvious and clear, and it was clearly... coming from the top of their heads!

The three taskers raised their heads subconsciously.

The next second, their eyes suddenly went dark—the nightmare restarted.

... who died?

In the live broadcast room, the reasoning leader exclaimed: "Sure enough! An hour after the nightmare started, this crumbling building began to collapse!"

The landslide started from the top floor of the building and spread all the way to the 26th floor. Unfortunately, the man in the suit and the boy who were on the ten floors became affected fish.

At the beginning of the second round of nightmares, when the taskers opened their eyes one after another, the boy's face darkened.

... black face in multiple senses.

Because not long ago, he was the one who was unfortunately crushed to death by the collapsed ceiling.Instead, the man in the suit next to him managed to avoid it.

The young man felt very angry, and the fear of death, even a little absurd.

What, he died?

Died in this nightmare?This kind of nightmare on the ground floor of a narrow building? ?

The teenager felt incredible.

Before this nightmare, the teenager hadn't died in a nightmare for a long, long time.

He is born with an arrogant temper, but he has the ability to rely on, and he looks young on the outside. Therefore, even if he utters wild words on the higher floors of the narrow building, the rest of the taskers don't bother to care about him.

So, he let his temper go more and more.

Secretly, some people talked about his affairs, wondering if it was because of the "price" of a certain item card that he always lost his temper regardless of the occasion and inappropriate time.

But the boy himself didn't think so.

This time when he came to the bottom of the narrow building, even though he looked innocent on the surface, he actually hated it deeply.He prides himself on being at the top, and putting him back at the bottom would be like killing him.

He looked down on the taskers at the bottom of the narrow building, and even looked down on the nightmare at the bottom of the narrow building. He must say whether the mastermind is more tolerant of the taskers at the bottom of the narrow building.

And now, he died in this nightmare that he looked down upon.

Nightmare, reboot.
