Escape from the Madhouse [Unlimited]

100 players entered the game, and now there are 82 left.

All 82 people were locked in a huge cage, and countless killers stood outside the cage. Their gazes were very complex, with curiosity, inquiry, evil, excitement... and unified, undisguised malice.

At first, everyone thought that the homicide exhibition was for tourists to visit. They visited the corpses related to the murder and learned the true face and motivation of the murderer behind it.

But at this moment, the tourists themselves became the objects to be visited, and those murderers became the visitors instead.

——It turned out that this was actually a visit related to the victim!

Now all players are undoubtedly extremely uncomfortable.

They have visited animals in the zoo.This time, they were the ones who were locked in the cage and watched wantonly.

Behind the iron cage, Zhou Qian looked very calm.

He met Ruan Mei's gaze without even an instant.

Zhou Qian had only seen Ruan Mei in the virtual game in the exhibition hall before. The Ruan Mei there was not a real person in history, but an NPC in the game. Many of her behaviors had heavy traces of design.

So this time, it was Zhou Qian's first encounter with the real Ruan Mei in history.

When Ruan Mei slowly walked in front of her and looked at her curiously, Zhou Qian stared into her eyes and said, "I know what you did, and what day you did it , What is the order of killing, and what is the method of killing...

"I know everything about you, and I can grasp your most critical evidence."

Behind Zhou Qian, He Xiaowei walked through the sea of ​​people and finally arrived at Zhou Qian's side.He originally came here with the intention of asking for credit.He felt that he had improved this time. Not only did he guess many of Zhou Qian's thoughts, but he also successfully completed the task he gave himself.

He Xiaowei really never expected that he had just walked over, before he had time to speak, he would hear Zhou Qian say these few words to a frantic NPC.

Although He Xiaowei instinctively felt that he should trust Zhou Qian, his heart couldn't help it and gave a hard thump.

He couldn't help thinking—fuck, Qian'er is really brave, dare to talk to NPC like that without knowing anything.Will Ruan Mei mess with him? I'm so flustered.

But soon He Xiaowei noticed that Ruan Mei's expression changed.

Although Ruan Mei's eyes hide something that has nothing to do with kindness at all, she still pretends on the surface, she makes herself look like a loving mother, and the corners of her mouth are always soft. A hard-working smile.

Seeing such a smile, no one would think that a housewife like her would be a terrible murderer.

Zhou Qian's words tore through her pretense.

Her gaze suddenly became extremely fierce and dark.She glared fiercely at Zhou Qian and gave him a threatening look before she turned and left.

After following Zhou Qian for so long, now He Xiaowei is gradually getting on the road.

He guessed what Zhou Qian was testing.

Ruan Mei's reaction undoubtedly showed that perhaps Zhou Qian's temptation was successful.

When Ruan Mei walked away, He Xiaowei couldn't help asking him in a low voice: "Qian'er, what do you mean?"

But Zhou Qian saw a slight smile in his eyes. "It just confirms some guesses."

He Xiaowei:?

Seeing that Zhou Qian didn't answer, He Xiaowei thought for a while, then turned to look at Bai Zhou who was standing beside him, and asked tentatively, "This big guy...you must understand what Qian'er means?"

Looking at He Xiaowei, Bai Zhou nodded.

He Xiaowei said pointedly: "Then..."

Bai Zhou lifted his chin behind him. "Ask your master."

He Xiaowei: "..."

Immediately He Xiaowei heard a chuckle.

Turning around, sure enough, he saw that it was Yindao walking over.

Zhou Qian glanced at He Xiaowei's expression, but smiled. "Good job this time, without you, things would be a lot more troublesome. How did you get the weapons?"

He Xiaowei took out a pair of private chat props, handed one of them to Zhou Qian, and then told him the secrets of the house alone, and said: "Seeing that we have not gone out, that Xu Feiyu brought his men into the house and asked about our progress." , then of course we have to use haunting devices to scare them!

"Haha, you don't know, her two subordinates were so frightened that they accidentally threw away the gun, so of course we have to seize the opportunity to grab it!

"Speaking of which... that magician is really powerful, and he was able to build that kind of thing in that era... He has never been discovered! It's amazing."

After listening to He Xiaowei's complete experience, Zhou Qian took off the private chat props and returned them to him, and thoughtfully said: "It seems that it is very beneficial to recruit more apprentices. It reminds me... I haven't been to a virtual game yet As for the lobby, I will go there some other day to watch videos and discover newcomers, and I can also take in a few apprentices."

At this point, Zhou Qian found that He Xiaowei was trying his best to wink at him.

Zhou Qian: "Huh?"

He Xiaowei continued to wink, and said angrily, "You, behind you!"

"In front of the two gods, they can hear you even if you whisper it." Zhou Qian turned around after saying this, and saw Bai Zhou who had been watching him from behind.

Bai Zhou stood behind Zhou Qian, watching him silently without speaking, but the pupils were obviously darker and deeper.

Um?Is Bai Zhou a little jealous?

Zhou Qian smiled and teased him, "What should apprentices call Master's boyfriend?"

Without waiting for Bai Zhou's answer, He Xiaowei interjected, "Hey, I thought you would just say husband."

Zhou Qian didn't turn his head back, he was speaking to He Xiaowei, but his gaze just continued to look at Bai Zhou, clearly speaking for him.

Just listen to Zhou Qian said: "Such words, what to say in front of you. I'll talk to Brother Zhou in private."

He Xiaowei: "..."

At this time, even He Xiaowei realized something belatedly—fuck, Qian'er is so provocative.If I had one-tenth of his abilities, I should have gotten a girlfriend long ago, right?

Immediately looking at Bai Zhou curiously, He Xiaowei noticed that the corners of his mouth were pursed, as if deliberately suppressing something.

And even though the sky was very dark at this time, He Xiaowei could still see that his ears seemed to be slightly red.

Immediately afterwards, he took Zhou Qian's hand away from the crowd and went to a corner of the cage.

He Xiaowei: "Hiss..."

——Suddenly felt that these two people...have a good relationship, so enviable!

In the corner, Zhou Qian stood still, and now he stopped joking, but silently looked at everyone.

An hour ago, since Yindao used that special picture, Zhou Qian's system panel began to pop up messages one after another——

That's when many people believed the story told by the picture and Bai Zhou's words, and began to apply to join Zhou Qian's army.

At that time Zhou Qian passed all of them.

Among the 82 surviving people, 32 belonged to Tao Hong, 26 belonged to Fit, 21 belonged to Zhou Qian, and 3 apprentices of Hidden Sword have been hiding in the manor without being discovered by anyone.

At this moment, regardless of the color of the wristbands on their respective hands, there are already 23 more people standing on Zhou Qian's side.

Xu Yang of the Feidu Legion and his cronies followed the Taohong Legion. Xu Feiyu was still under the control of Yindao's big apprentice, but even the two subordinates who often followed her had transferred to Zhou Qian's legion and camp.

In any case, the original three-legged situation has completely changed.

——50 people from Zhou Qian, 32 from Taohong.

In addition, Zhou Qian also observed a special thing.

When Ruan Mei left earlier, she raised her hand to brush her hair.

Accompanied by that movement, the sleeve on her wrist slid down a bit, and Zhou Qian saw that there was actually a red wristband on her hand——

Red, exactly corresponds to the "red" in the seven colors of the rainbow.

Not only Ruan Mei, Zhou Qian looked out at the assassins passing by one by one, and found that everyone had a red wristband on their left wrist.

So, the killers are the red camp?

Rescuing killers from different eras and bringing them here, apart from deliberately causing the world to collapse, what purpose did the perpetrators have?

Will the following players confront these killers?

Zhou Qian was observing the killer when he heard Bai Zhou whisper in his ear, "Zhou Qian, something is wrong with this cell."

"What's wrong?" Zhou Qian asked him.

"The shape is wrong." Bai Zhou said, "Let Xiaolong go check it out."

"Row."

After finishing speaking, as Bai Zhou said, Zhou Qian sent Xiaolong to explore the cell.

After Xiaolong quickly walked around the cell for a week, through its vision, Zhou Qian did notice something strange.

Because the cell occupied too much area, Zhou Qian was squeezed into the corner again. In addition, he had been looking at the killer outside and did not look carefully at the inside of the cell. In addition, under the influence of his subconscious perception of the cell, Zhou Qian Previously, the prison cell was defaulted to a square shape.

Only now, through Xiaolong's perspective, did he discover that a large area in the center of the cell was actually a regular hexagon, and now six regular triangles grew out of the hexagon, and the real iron pillars were next to the triangles.

Six colors, six regular triangles...

Zhou Qian thought of something quickly, and looked at Bai Zhou: "This is a chessboard, a checkers board.

"Could the system... let us play checkers?"

When he said this, Zhou Qian was looking at Bai Zhou at first, but now he was looking at Xiaolong together, and he couldn't help seeing another person through Xiaolong's eyes - the priest.

At this moment, whether intentionally or not, the priest also saw the little dragon, and was looking at it from a distance through the pink army.

In this way, in an unusual way, the pastor looked at Zhou Qian across the air.

Zhou Qian could clearly see the pastor's face through Xiaolong, but the pastor couldn't see Zhou Qian clearly.

But the pastor's expression was very natural, as if Zhou Qian was right in front of him.He even waved at him with a smile.

The pastor's natural expression and smile made Zhou Qian feel rather strange.

In Zhou Qian's perception, the pastor is undoubtedly a cruel and conscienceless person.

And in his life, he actually met many people without conscience, such as his father, or the scum-like Zhang Yanjun.

The badness of these two people is reflected in the bone marrow, which can be discovered at a glance.

But the pastor is not.

He looks gentle and compassionate, sitting quietly cross-legged in the crowd at the moment, he looks a bit like Guanyin.

It didn't take long for Zhou Qian to feel his hand being held tighter by Bai Zhou.

Probably because he also noticed the pastor's gaze.

Withdrawing his gaze, Zhou Qian didn't look any further, and quickly called Xiaolong back with his mental power, and put it into his luggage.

Immediately, everyone felt that the grass under their feet had changed again. It was iron pillars growing directly in the mud, dividing the grass into squares one after another.

The situation seems to be developing as Zhou Qian expected.

——These squares are actually chess squares.

The system prompt came immediately——

[The checkers game will start in 20 minutes.People with wristbands of different colors belong to different camps, please go to different corners, you will fight for your camp]

[Checkers rules: Everyone with a wristband is considered a chess piece. If there is a chess piece in the adjacent position of your chess grid, and its adjacent position is a space, you can skip the adjacent position move to that space; if there are multiple similar squares, you can achieve one-time continuous jumping, and make reasonable use of the rules to ensure the maximum number of steps each time]

[Victory determination: All chess pieces in each camp need to go to the opposite corner and occupy all the squares there. Whichever color is completed first, whichever camp can win]

[Remarks on special circumstances: A person with a white wristband is regarded as a white pawn; white pawns have privileges and can form a camp with any color, and any other color cannot kill white]

[In addition, white can ignore the "obstacles" in checkers. If there are other pieces in the adjacent position, white can forcibly exchange positions with it. If this method is used, white can move up to three squares at a time]

Hearing this, Zhou Qian didn't look at the white wristband on his hand, but immediately looked at Bai Zhou beside him, the meaning of which was self-evident.

Bai Zhou looked at him with a smile, and whispered in his ear: "What you said before was wrong. It was because I met you that my luck changed."

"Well, my luck has always been good, especially when I'm with you." Zhou Qian said with a smile.

The news from the system is still coming in——

[In the past nearly 10 hours, the system has been looking for the evil forces that caused the city to collapse; but... now the evil forces have dominated everything, and the system is helpless]

[The killers are eager to visit this game, I hope all players perform well]

[The winner of the game will get the important information revealed by the killer, trust the system, it will be your life-saving weapon]

[The checkers game will start in 20 minutes and last for an hour]

[I wish you a happy game! 】

His eyes quickly scanned all the news, and when he raised his eyes again, Zhou Qian saw He Xiaowei's earnest gaze.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Qian asked him.

He Xiaowei: "Qian'er is so good, checkers must be easy?"

Regarding He Xiaowei's compliment, Zhou Qian resolutely accepted it all: "Indeed."

"Hey, how do we play this game?"

He Xiaowei asked expectantly, "I'm still wearing a purple wristband. Although I'm in a different camp from your yellow team... But I can help us build a bridge for yellow. So it's not six colors, six colors at all. The camp battle, this is..."

"I'm afraid this is a battle between me and the pastor."

Zhou Qian narrowed his eyes, and there was a cunning that He Xiaowei was familiar with.

"The pastor, who has been hiding in the dark, seems calm and indifferent... how good, now this game forces him to come in front of me.

"There are thousands of ways to win checkers. Now I'm going to take the one that ... makes the Priest most convincing to lose."

The author has something to say:

Looking through the previous article today, I found that the source of inspiration for the first copy of "Apple Paradise" has no notes (I clearly remember that I made notes, could it be in a dream hahahaha).

That copy was inspired by the famous performance artist Maria Abramović.

In an art exhibition hall in Italy, Maria put herself under general anesthesia, only keeping her mind clear, and then sat on the performance stage, allowing the audience to do whatever they wanted.

At the beginning, the audience just put on makeup and played with her hair, etc., and then gradually lost control, and developed to use knives, guns and so on.

(If you are interested, you can search for details, the artist’s love story is also quite touching)
