Escape from the Madhouse [Unlimited]

It was getting darker a little.The color of that weird grass was even closer to black.

The colors of plants are strange and unpredictable, and the invisible substances flowing in the air are also extremely dangerous. They read human genes anytime and anywhere, and at the same time randomly put the genetic codes of other animals and plants into human bodies for rewriting , people quickly produce mutation reactions.

Through the transparent mask, Zhu Qiang did not know the principle behind these visions.

He just looked up at Zhou Qian in the black grass, like looking at a fish on the chopping board who gave up struggling and didn't even bother to move.

Zhu Qiang was obviously unwilling to answer Zhou Qian's so-called "last question".

He suddenly realized that Zhou Qian just casually told himself his principles of life, or what was on his mind?He was clearly talking to himself.

——Zhou Qian wanted to get more information.What is his purpose?Do you want that god-level player to avenge him?

After a while, probably seeing that Zhu Qiang was unwilling to answer, Zhou Qian said again: "Well, it seems that you are very afraid to answer this question. Even if I am going to die, you dare not say it. Well, it's okay... ...Then I won't ask you any questions. But I have something to say to you.

"Actually, brother Qiang, I don't think your heart is hard enough. In this game, a person's heart must be hard to the end to reach the end."

"What do you mean?" Zhu Qiang frowned, as if he didn't understand why Zhou Qian said such words suddenly.

Zhou Qian looked up at him, with a little madness in his eyes. "You know, if I were you, what would I do? If I saw Brother Qiang and you were tied up here and couldn't move, I wouldn't stand outside and talk. I would come in and kill you with my own hands. Hmm... You still don't understand—"

"Brother Qiang, I am trapped here by the dungeon trap. If you let my health be emptied, my death will be counted in the dungeon trap, and you will get nothing.

"But if you kill me yourself, you can get my life point card. Although I don't have many points left now, maybe this point will become the key to your life in the end, maybe?

"Kill me and get points; but it means you have to walk in and consume points faster, but as long as your fast in and fast out movements are fast enough, killing me is a profitable thing."

Things have come to this point, Zhou Qian is not still playing tricks, is he?

Shouldn't.

He shouldn't be able to play any tricks!

"Ha ha……"

Seeing Zhu Qiang's hesitant expression, Zhou Qian suddenly laughed.

This laughter undoubtedly angered Zhu Qiang. "Zhou Qian, what are you laughing at?!!"

"Of course I am laughing at your cowardice and cowardice. You see, even though I am already like this, you are still afraid of me. You dare not come in."

Zhou Qian looked into Zhu Qiang's eyes with a smile, "Look, I stepped into the trap set by the Pink Legion step by step. You just kept saying that although the Legion was planning behind it, you were the one who finally succeeded in implementing the plan. However, even if my limbs are tied up now, and I can no longer escape from birth, you - you dare not even approach me!

"So Zhu Qiang, admit it. You are a coward!"

Zhu Qiang didn't want to admit it, but one thing he had to admit was that Zhou Qian was telling the truth.

Now the person who is bound and waiting to die is Zhou Qian, and the person looking down on him is himself!

But the state of the two of them is actually very different.

Although Zhou Qian seemed to have given up struggling, he was really calm, but Zhu Qiang felt that he was bluffing.Obviously Zhou Qian's situation is the prey to be caught, and I am the hunter who caught him!But looking into his eyes, Zhu Qiang had the illusion that he was the prey who fell into the trap.

Just because of such a perverted feeling, when Zhu Qiang heard that Zhou Qian asked him to kill him with his own hands, his first reaction was exactly as he said - dare not.

Zhu Qiang had already decided to kill Zhou Qian.

He even gave himself a pseudonym "No Regret" just to show his determination!

But in the end...why didn't he dare to take Zhou Qian's life with his own hands?

Yes, what dare he dare!

Of course he had to kill Zhou Qian with his own hands and get his life points! !

A person like Zhou Qian must take revenge. He just wanted to taunt me again at the last moment of his life!

Or, he found that he couldn't survive, so he wanted to induce me to walk into the trap and die here with him!

That's all.Zhou Qian could only use these two tricks!

Of course I don't have to be afraid!I could walk in and kill him with my own hands!

"Zhou Qian, of course I dare to kill you. Thank you for reminding me that I can also get the cards on you by killing you with my own hands." Zhu Qiang grinned grimly, took out some things from his luggage, and didn't know When to Buy Live Pet Chicks.

[Player Zhu Qiang uses props: Pathfinder Chicks]

[Function description: Can't decipher the maze trap?It's okay, Little Chick will help you!Five clever little chickens know how to navigate mazes and identify traps, and one of them will always find the right way! 】

【Grade: B Grade】

Five chicks came out in a file and landed on the ground. They were used by Zhu Qiang as a pathfinding tool, and they walked towards the dark grass in different routes.

When they were walking outside, they were all fine, but when they approached Zhou Qian, they were attacked one after another, and they were all entangled by black grass.

In the end, there was only one chick left that didn't step on the trap. It managed to get very close to Zhou Qian, and then it stopped temporarily.

Seeing this, Zhu Qiang's eyes curled up with a smile.

That's enough, as long as you walk to where the chicken is now, this distance... is enough to kill Zhou Qian by yourself.

As long as you follow its route just now, you won't step into any trap.

Of course, even so, Zhu Qiang still dare not take it lightly in the face of Zhou Qian who is too smart.

He looked at Zhou Qian, and then took a closer look at him.

Zhou Qian's limbs were indeed tied tightly.The black grass penetrated into every hole, and even entered every finger crevice of the ten fingers of his hands, entwining each of his fingers.

In addition, the grass growing on Zhou Qian's body was also entangled with these black grasses, almost inseparable.

Zhou Qian was stuck from top to bottom, even his fingers were trapped.He couldn't raise his hand or slide his fingers at all, and now he couldn't even get props from his luggage!

The only thing Zhou Qian is holding in his hand now, which is also entangled by countless black grasses, is his God's rib.

But first of all, there is no resentment for him to use, and he cannot use self-mutilation to reduce his blood below 10%, so he cannot use a big move.

Secondly, Zhou Qian's ordinary skill is to make people fall into a dream.

But Zhu Qiang is still fully prepared for this.

In order to avoid being affected by the swamp, Zhu Qiang prepared a mask in advance before entering the dungeon.

It was presented to him by the pastor himself.This transparent mask is very light and thin, but it is very effective. It is not to prevent poisonous miasma, but to protect the brain nerves to ensure that the brain nerves will not be disturbed by any external factors.

In this way, wearing such a mask, Zhu Qiang will not be affected by the wetlands and swamps, so that he will also be recruited into the illusion and fall into the swamp, and he can also avoid Zhou Qian's skills.

Can't use big moves, ordinary skills are useless to Zhu Qiang, and there is absolutely no possibility of fingers poking into the bag to get other items...

Then, the only skill that Zhou Qian can use, indeed, is only one left - slow down or stop time.

But this is nothing more than delaying his death time.Even if he stops time, when his skill points are exhausted, he will inevitably die.

After reconfirming this point, Zhu Qiang was temporarily relieved, and took out two things from his luggage—a knife and a lighter.

The knife is the most common knife. Zhu Qiang picked it up and threw it at the chicken that was tied up with the ink grass closest to him.His aim was not bad, and the tip of the knife accurately scratched the ink grass, so he discovered that this kind of grass could still be cut by an ordinary knife.

Even with Xiaojizai to test the way, Zhu Qiang was still afraid of being tricked.So he took a knife to test whether the material of the magic grass was similar to ordinary grass, of course, just in case-if he was entangled in the grass, he could swing the knife to save himself at a critical moment.

Zhou Qian fled here in a hurry.Unlike Zhou Qian, Zhu Qiang believed that he was fully prepared and had already held the knife and fire for self-rescue in his hands in advance.In this way, it should be foolproof.

After taking a breath, he clenched the props in his hand, and Zhu Qiang finally stepped into the dark grass area over there.

In the beginning, Zhu Qiang walked very slowly, he was observing the decline of his points.

He wasn't calculating whether there would be any benefits after subtracting the points gained from killing Zhou Qian by subtracting the points from the drop in his own health.After all, he walked in to prove that he was not afraid of his schemes and dared to kill him himself. This was the main purpose.

Zhu Qiang just wanted to roughly calculate the speed at which the points would drop, and to confirm that he would not waste his time and die here, he dared to act.

After making sufficient preparations, Zhu Qiang walked step by step along the route he found through the props, and walked to a place very close to Zhou Qian.

Here, he is enough to kill Zhou Qian, and he can also easily pick up the cards dropped from Zhou Qian.

But at this moment, Zhu Qiang suddenly noticed something strange.

He saw several cards scattered behind Zhou Qian.

The system said that there are many props that can increase life points randomly hidden in the dungeon.

Are these cards hidden in this kind of place?

This is great!

Zhu Qiang thought about it carefully and thought that this design was very reasonable.

Cards with points clearly written on them are the biggest temptation tools.

It is tempting players to approach!

But when the players get close, they will find themselves trapped in a place where the life value is accelerated. Instead of increasing their life points, they will die completely!

He raised his foot and was about to walk there, then Zhu Qiang withdrew his foot, looked at Zhou Qian in front of him and smiled. "This is your plan? You want me to die with you? Hahaha...

"Speaking of which, Brother Qian, I also want to thank you. When I watched you play "Apple Paradise", through the screen, I remembered a sentence you said. The designer of this game likes to play with people's hearts. The cards that increase the points are placed in the place where the points decrease. This is his trick. The most tempting place is the most dangerous! The most dangerous place is actually the safer... Tsk tsk tsk——

"Could it be that you just ran in that direction just to pick up those cards, and you were trapped?

"This proves that the dream in the swamp still has a great influence on you. When you fled in a hurry, you really didn't have time to sort out your thoughts. That's why you fell into the trap easily."

"Hiss, sorry. You are more careful than I thought. Mistake."

After Zhou Qian sighed lightly, he seemed completely speechless.He just lowered his head, his face completely pale.

Zhu Qiang glanced at him with a sneer, and took out five chickens to help him find the way. Finally, he successfully reached the place where several cards with life points were scattered.

Taking out the card he drew first, Zhu Qiang did a comparison, and found no problems with these cards, so he picked them up.

Four cards, each with 6 points, and the countdown below the number has not yet appeared, which is reasonable. Zhu Qiang learned from Wu Ren's situation that the points of the cards drawn by the players are reset to zero, and the cards behind them can be counted down. A countdown will begin.

In this way, Zhu Qiang found that he had gained 24 points at once.

In this dungeon, except for the special area where acceleration drops, 1 point in the normal area is almost equal to 20 minutes.

This means that he has an extra 480 minutes of time!

He doesn't even have to hurry in and out, he has plenty of time to torture Zhou Qian!

Putting away the cards, Zhu Qiang returned to Zhou Qian's side, and saw him make a movement, hold the bone in his hand tightly, and read something.

Then Zhu Qiang felt a slight distortion in the space. When he walked towards Zhou Qian, everything was normal at first, but when he walked in front of Zhou Qian, his pace slowed down uncontrollably.

——Sure enough, Zhou Qian only has one trick to slow down time!He slowed down time in the small area he was in.

The smaller the range of slowing time, the slower the consumption of mana.

But what's the use?Does he still expect someone to save him?

In order to keep pace with Zhou Qian, don't be too awkward when killing him, Zhu Qiang reached out and grabbed the bone in his hand directly. In this way, the two of them stood together outside of time.

Raising the knife in his hand, Zhu Qiang looked at Zhou Qian and said, "It's the most common knife. It just helped me deal with those weeds in case of emergency. Now it can also be used to kill you. Now put yourself on the edge of time." Besides, does it make sense?"

Zhou Qian suddenly looked up at Zhu Qiang: "Why don't we go back to the original question. Why do you know Zhang Yanjun?"

Zhu Qiang didn't answer, he just stretched out his hand decisively and stabbed the dagger into Zhou Qian's heart.

But he found that there was no blood coming out of Zhou Qian's body.

"Oh, I seem to have mutated. I don't even have blood." Zhou Qian smiled at Zhu Qiang, "Brother Qiang, it seems that you have to slowly think about how to kill me. Why don't you chat again. Before you die, I'm not lonely anymore."

"You fucking——" Zhu Qiang was extremely angry, and suddenly felt like he was being played with.

But how can I give up?

If Zhou Qian's whole body turned into grass, at worst, he would burn him himself!

right.Burn him!Burning him is complete destruction!

But Zhou Qian said: "There is a grass not far away. It will cry for help. From its words, it seems that it has the memory of the night when the Weiershan accident happened. But if you listen carefully, you will find that it is just Repeating those words meaninglessly, as if it recorded a videotape, or a tape recorder, of that memory, but it itself has no thoughts for the time being.

"Therefore, it can be ruled out temporarily that a certain researcher here has turned into a grass. Then it can be understood that after the mutation of the grass, there are some people's memories. The memory may be stored in the gene. Then this is It means... there is something inside the high wall that can replicate genes.

"When a person looks in the mirror, there will be a self in the mirror. Now the 'mirror' in the high wall can directly see the human genetic code, and edit it into different fragments, and then copy the fragments to other animals and plants, and finally it can make it complete rapid growth..."

Surrounded by a piece of black grass, Zhou Qian, who was out of time, looked up at Zhu Qiang and said, "If such a world really exists in reality, it will undoubtedly be very scary. But fortunately, we are still in the dungeon." .I'm just slowly becoming like grass, but I haven't grown butterfly wings yet. It's like, I haven't read the memory that Qi Liuxing fears the most."

"If this kind of situation exists in the real world, it is undoubtedly very scary. Because of the appearance of this kind of 'mirror', most of the changes to species are random and uncontrollable.

"But in the copy of the game, since there is a way to clear the level, it must not be completely random.

"Otherwise, it would be too difficult for the players, and there is not even a 5% chance of clearing the level. Let me ask, if the memories of the seven players are all intertwined, who can distinguish the true from the false, and then escape from the illusion?"

Zhou Qian asked Zhu Qiang, "So, tell me, among so many players, you can only read my memory for no reason. Right?

"The 'mirror' read my most feared memory, and 'reflected' that memory to me in front of the swamp, making me enter a fantasy dream. But you are not reflected by the 'mirror' like me ,Yeah?"

"Can I understand that the Pink Legion has been eyeing me for a long time and has checked all my information?

"Or let's make the proposition simpler. So many people in the lunatic asylum are involved in this game. How can the doctors and nurses know nothing about it? Are some doctors also involved?"

Zhou Qian asked Zhu Qiang, "They can see my medical records, and then follow the clues to know the existence of Zhang Yanjun. In addition—"

"Why are so many murderers, Dong Xiang, and you, for example, identified as having mental problems? Which doctor started to deal with all this and deceived the police?"

Hearing these words, Zhu Qiang only said: "Zhou Qian, you don't need to talk to me about this. Really. The more you guess, I think... the more likely you are to die in the game. How could they let you How about taking these secrets out?"

"Brother Qiang, I'm already letting you eat and drink, and you can even burn me. But it would be a pity to just burn me. I guessed a lot about this game, legion, and system. Would you like to listen to it? For example, you Have you ever thought about a question—"

Narrowing his eyes, Zhou Qian asked Zhu Qiang, "The legion is so powerful that you, who should have been a murderer, can be released from prison and put into a mental hospital... Then, why don't they just get rid of me in reality?

"There are their people among the doctors, whether they poison me or kill me secretly... It's actually much easier than in the game. After all, I'm in reality and I don't have any superpowers. But why don't they?"

At this moment, Zhu Qiang had already taken out a machete, planning to chop off Zhou Qian's head directly.

But because of Zhou Qian's question, he really stopped his hands.

Yeah, why?

They are so powerful.It was because of the priest's help that he was able to escape from the role of a murderer.

So why didn't they kill Zhou Qian in reality?

"This means that gods exist." Zhou Qian said with faintly bright eyes, "players can make wishes to gods. And as I said just now, there is a god-level player, my master, who will resurrect me. Even I die in reality... He can also make a wish to let me live. So it doesn't make sense for the Legion to kill me in reality.

"Death in the game is actually death in the real sense. Right?

"Death in the game of the gods means that it is truly over, and there is no chance to do it again."

At this point, Zhou Qian's expression became a little gloomy.

"Of course, if that's the case... Gao Shan would be a pity. He won't have a chance to be resurrected again. Hey wait—"

"Maybe it can be understood from another angle! Maybe it's just that people who die in the game have no chance to re-enter this game invented by the gods, that's all."

"Think about it... There is no unreasonable hatred in this world. Why did the Pink Army kill me? And pay such a high price? It can only be because if I continue to stay in the game, in some aspects in the future, I will really It affects their interests. Although I don't know the specific reason...but it can only be this reason. In short, they can't let me continue to participate in the game.

"If the reality outside the game kills me, I can be resurrected by my master, and then re-enter the game. But if I die in the game, even if my master revives me, I have no chance to re-enter."

"Hmm..." Zhou Qian sighed, and his eyes that had been dim just now regained their light, "It seems... Gaoshan can still be saved. I was too pessimistic just now."

After rambling on, Zhou Qian talked a lot.

From gene duplication, to game mechanics, and even guesses about the Pink Legion, he talked so much that even Zhu Qiang felt wordy.

In the end, Zhu Qiang couldn't take it anymore, and raised the machete in his hand to act.

At this moment, he suddenly heard Zhou Qian say something: "Brother Qiang, I forgot to ask you something. I swear this is really the last question I will ask you—"

Zhu Qiang: "What the hell do you want to ask?"

Zhou Qian: "Did you not learn math well?"

Zhu Qiang: "..."

"What the hell are you asking?"

At this time, Zhu Qiang was angry and a little confused.

"Let me teach you to do a simple math problem." Zhou Qian said softly, "When I came to this place, I had 17 health points left. Calculated as each point is equal to 20 minutes, I could still live for 340 minutes.

"But as soon as I entered this grass, my health dropped sharply. I can only live for 5 minutes. In other words, the speed of the decline of life points here is 68 times that of other ordinary areas in this level. You will count this, right? Divide 340 by 5. As for you—”

"I, you, and Qi Liuxing, we are the top three with the most life points. I originally had 24 points, and Qi Liuxing had 16 points. You, who were ranked second at first, lost 6 points in the small level of finding the murderer. Point, it can still be ranked second...

"This can only mean that you initially drew 23 points. In this way, after reducing 6 points, you have 17 points left, which is a little more than Qiliu Xing, and you can go on to the second place.

"Then according to this calculation, when I first entered the black grass, I had 17 points left, and you had 10 points left."

"Have you calculated that after entering this black grass, you can live for a few minutes at most?

"The remaining 10 points you have can originally support you to live for 200 minutes, but because in this black grass area, the player's life points drop 68 times faster. Then you can only live in this grass divided by 200 divided by 68 , which is 2.94 minutes.

"It took about a minute and a half for you to put the chicken twice to find the line. And at this moment, it took me another minute and a half to chat with you outside of time for so long..."

At this point, Zhou Qian smiled: "Now you are fine. It is because you and I are standing outside time and space. But the flow of time outside is normal. Once you let go of the bone in my hand, you will return to normal It’s equivalent to traveling to 90 seconds later... By then, you will die directly because your life points are cleared.”

"You, you fart!" Zhu Qiang immediately raised the four cards in his hand, "I have so much time! What are you kidding?"

"But...these are all fake cards. I copied them." Zhou Qian said with a smile, "Haven't you ever thought that I threw them there on purpose?"

"Fart your mother!" Zhu Qiang said fiercely, "Hahaha, of course I had that kind of guess. But that's impossible! Zhou Qian, don't try to scare me, the system said it! Cards cannot be copied!"

"Copying, stealing, and snatching related skills and props are invalid for cards that record life points.

"The only way to plunder cards is to kill the corresponding players."

Zhou Qiandao repeated these two rules, and said: "When these two rules appeared at the same time, I was thinking about a problem-the system means that after the card is copied, the points on the copied card , cannot be used as life points, it is equivalent to a fake card, or can the card not be copied at all?"

"So, when I got the reward from the ghost Lina, I deliberately didn't give the card to Wu Ren right away. When the card flipped around in my left and right hands, I actually made a copy with the little copying prop hidden in my sleeve. cards.

"That's when I confirmed that the card can be copied, but the points will not take effect.

"As my friend who is a gambler, you should know that I am good at cheating."

"Besides, generally speaking, even if my actions at that time were discovered, everyone would definitely think that what I gave Wu Ren was a fake card. After all, such a precious life card, of course it is appropriate to keep it for yourself.

"This is the danger of thinking. But I just gave Wu Renzhen the card. Later, you found that Wu Ren did survive... and naturally, no one thought that I was playing tricks in secret when I was procrastinating for a while. A gimmick. So, this little episode is rightfully forgotten by you."

"Impossible!" Zhu Qiang interrupted Zhou Qian fiercely, "There is no mutation in me! If my points are really as low as you said, how can I be fine from the beginning to the end?!

"Zhou Qian, I'm not so easy to be fooled! You can't lie to me!"

"That's right, why haven't you mutated?" Zhou Qian looked at the mask on him and smiled again, "Because of your mask, right?

"Didn't you expect that the mask that protects you will actually harm you in the end? Tsk, it makes you take it lightly. Hey, when analyzing the problem, you have to consider all factors. Why did you forget your mask? What? But—

"Thank you. You helped me solve a big problem. I don't know what the reality is. But after being made into a game, in this simplified setting, the key to the mutation is mostly related to the brain.

After listening to every word and every sentence, Zhu Qiang almost staggered, and then his chest felt tight, and he was so angry that he let out a breath.

The entire back molar was almost crushed by him.

He clasped Zhou Qian's shoulders, exhaled a bloody breath, and said in an extremely hoarse voice: "So what about Zhou Qian? You are trapped by the grass! You can't get out either! You told me before!" Gossiping about Zhang Yanjun and Bai Zhou in the fantasy world, it took 1 minute! You only have 1 minute left! The big deal is that we die together! Hahaha...

"I'll kill you anyway! I've come this far, even if I sacrificed my life, I still managed to kill you!!!"

"Silly Zhuqiang, of course I won't be trapped."

Zhou Qian looked at him seriously, and said in a tone as if he was just helping his classmates answer questions, "Actually, if you didn't fall for the fake card just now, then forget it. I won't act, use the conventional The ordinary way to deal with you is enough.

"It's just...the reason why I want to perform such a scene is because, if I don't hold you up to the top, how can I enjoy the fun of watching you fall to the bottom and see all your plans come to naught?"

Zhou Qian smiled happily, but at the same time looked at Zhu Qiang with an extremely profound gaze.

"Zhu Qiang, how do you feel now?"

"Don't be angry. Just think of me as revenge for silly Yuxian."

"I don't believe...Zhou Qian, I don't believe you can get out of this grass..." Zhu Qiang spat out another mouthful of blood.

Zhou Qian was trapped by the grass.How could he have any other way?

He wanted to piss himself off!He just wants to make himself angry! ! !

"I think the reason why you are so confident is because you have obtained a lot of information through the Pink Legion. But after talking to you in a few words, I know that you haven't figured out the real setting of this dungeon at all. So... …In fact, you have to rely on yourself in everything, and don’t rely too much on the information given to you by others.”

Zhou Qian smiled, "Actually, the system gave us hints about the answer to the problem from the very beginning. You wanted to use the trap in the dungeon to kill me. But why didn't you even think about its most essential principle? "
