Flirting with old enemies in escape games

"What?"

"I said, make, break, magic, square."

Instead of waiting for Rubik's Cube to come to your door, it is better to attack first.

Although they all understand the truth, these words are a bit too shocking, and everyone present was stunned again.

It was He Shaoyan, a bigwig in the academic world, who had seen the world, and he calmed down quickly... no, it should be said that he became excited.

A cluster of bright flames ignited in the eyes under the lens, he couldn't restrain his excited tone, and asked impatiently: "How to do it?"

"Go in black." Nie Yuan pointed to the researcher who just went out with a backpack with his chin: "Use the things that the baby brought out from the Rubik's Cube before, and the information I know."

This is why the man encouraged Ji Wuhuan to continue planning to bring out the contents of the Rubik's Cube even though he knew it might be risky.

Taking precautions, he thought of the possibility of this situation at that time, so he asked Ji Wuhuan to bring the things out to Dragon Soul for research.

After all, more than 20 years have passed, and many data in the Rubik's Cube may have been updated, and what Nie Yuan obtained from that power is not all the information of the Rubik's Cube.

Much of that data has been lost over time.

So they need to cooperate with Dragon Soul.

"Hacking in?" He Shaoyan keenly grasped the key word: "The Rubik's Cube is really a supercomputer?"

"It can be understood in this way." Nie Yuan pulled Ji Wuhuan to sit down on the sofa, and when he helped him straighten his bangs, he accidentally abused the dog in the office with his intimate movements.

He Shaoyan waited anxiously for him to continue.

"But the Rubik's Cube is a bit more advanced. It is a brain. The reason why the creators created it is the same as we create computers. For more efficient and faster work, for entertainment and communication, the Rubik's Cube also has attack and defense systems to protect their world. and civilization."

"Wait, they?" Min Yan couldn't help interrupting Nie Yuan: "Do you mean high-dimensional creatures or aliens?"

I don't know much about this Nie Yuan: "I only know that someone created the Rubik's Cube, but I don't know who it is. The data that entered my body does not have this part of the information."

"Okay, keep talking." He Shaoyan urged.

"The most powerful function of the Rubik's Cube is not work or entertainment, but the ability to connect parallel worlds, it is like a portal."

The Rubik's Cube does not create the world, but connects the world.

As mentioned earlier, Ji Wuhuan has the ability to travel through space, which proves that the dungeons they experienced before are actually real worlds.

Then two questions arise.

"Why do those real worlds become what they are in the copy? Is it the way it is or has it been transformed? And... let's assume that the creators of the Rubik's Cube are aliens. Why do those aliens do this? What is there? Purpose?"

Regarding this point, Nie Yuan is also unclear: "The Rubik's Cube 20 years ago was not ordered to pull humans into various parallel worlds to play."

As for why he did this, he was even less clear.

Just like a computer will execute the orders given by humans, but it cannot subjectively understand why humans do it.

But the result is not hard to guess.

"It may be to observe humans, it may be to do experiments, it may be for fun, or it may be used as a horse betting game."

Just like human beings like to watch various reality shows in addition to watching circuses and animal performances in aquariums.

This can also be regarded as a stalk of various themes, such as the movies "The Hunger Games", "As God Said", "The Cabin in the Woods", "Heart Panic", etc., are all forced by a group of people. A game of life and death controlled by the boss behind the scenes.

"Why do you choose people who are already dead?" He Shaoyan asked the question, and then asked himself and answered: "Is it kindness or is it because people who are about to die will work harder?"

Ji Wuhuan raised Erlang's legs, put his chin on his hands and smiled lightly, "Isn't this the answer you are looking for?"

For the vast majority of players, the Rubik's Cube is a "love and hate" existence. It gives people the hope of living, but pushes them into a desperate abyss of fear.

Is the Rubik's Cube good or bad, a devil or a savior?

Obviously Dragon Soul is more inclined to the former.

The assistant next to He Shaoyan sighed: "It is said that as long as you pass the six-sided game, you can be completely resurrected, you can get a lot of wealth, and you can realize a wish. But we have always doubted whether the Rubik's Cube game will really end."

Since the Rubik's Cube appeared more than 20 years ago, until today...

"Because no one ever cleared the level-never."

Countless people have doubted this point for a long time, but no one dared to give up until they got a clear answer.

In other words, living a day is a day.

Compared with those casual players, Dragon Soul knows better. There are hundreds of millions of players all over the world who have broken through the Rubik's Cube game, but so far no one has cleared the level.

Not to mention clearing the customs, not even entering the sixth side.

Until now no one knew what the sixth side game was.

"Don't you want to solve the Rubik's Cube?" The man stood up with his hands in his pockets, and threw his Rubik's Cube on the sofa. This small cube emitted a light blue light.

"This is the best opportunity. My purpose is to erase the player status of me and the baby. As for the others..." He shrugged indifferently: "It depends on you how far you can go."

His purpose is very clear, whether aliens or high-dimensional creatures, before being caught by the forces behind the Rubik's Cube, he hacked into the Rubik's Cube to modify the data and erase his and Ji Wuhuan's player identities, so they are no longer under control. Break away from the player's identity and become an ordinary person.

Not to mention that he himself is a bug, Ji Wuhuan was still Rubik's Cube's deadly enemy.

Although Nie Yuan is young, he is not stupid. He knows that it is impossible to confront that force head-on, especially after awakening, he has a clearer understanding of what it means to hit a stone with an egg.

They are no match for those guys.

But he knew that Dragon Soul would definitely not stop here.

"What you want to do is not something you can do by secretly hacking into the system and modifying some data, but you must completely destroy it."

This "wrecking" does not mean destroying the Rubik's Cube, but completely tampering with it and not being discovered by its creator.

That's why Ji Wuhuan said "destroy the Rubik's Cube" at the beginning.

This is a huge project that is almost impossible to realize from the present, and it is impossible for only the two of them to do it.

Not only that, even if all Dragon Soul and all Rubik's Cube players try their best, they will definitely not be able to do it in the short term.

But for them, "cracking the Rubik's Cube" is the goal of the entire organization. They have been doing it before without any clues, but now at least they have a clear path.

It's just that when this road will reach the end, it is not known.

He Shaoyan understood what he meant, and nodded clearly: "The long-term goal is to 'destroy the Rubik's Cube' and now, what we have to do is to hack into the Rubik's Cube and modify the data before you are discovered by that force, right?"

"That's right." Nie Yuan nodded slowly, and he tapped his temple with his index finger: "In exchange, I will tell you all the information I know, and I will do my best to cooperate with you."

"..."

The office was silent for a while, looking at each other.

Before Shen Xingmeng recovered from the shock, Zhang San, a junior, dared not speak.

He Shaoyan made brief eye contact with Min Yan, and finally Min Yan nodded and settled down: "Okay, let's cooperate."

He put away his usual idleness, put on his coat and went out, saying as he walked, "Mengmeng, call all the ministers of the department for a meeting tomorrow morning."

"All departments?" Shen Xingmeng understood what he meant, but: "Many people are not in the country."

"I don't care. If you take a special plane or a customized route, you must arrive before dawn! If you don't come, their information sharing rights will be suspended." Min Yan was rarely serious, standing upright and giving orders with a bit of prestige: "Zhang San, go Help Mengmeng."

"Yes." The two agreed without hesitation, and went to do it immediately.

Before going out, he told He Shaoyan to go to his office in 10 minutes, and then left.

No one knows when the forces behind Rubik's Cube will find Nie Yuan, so everything must be done without delay.

Compared to Min Yan who suddenly became serious, He Shaoyan also changed from his usual indifference and calmness to appear extremely excited. He led Nie Yuan and Ji Wuhuan to the research department, asking many questions about the Rubik's Cube along the way.

Nie Yuan basically answered every question, but even if he said a lot of things, it was hard to understand.

After entering the research department, there were more curious babies, each of them holding a small notebook and asking questions in order to come up.

The man was patient at first, but after a long time, his complexion became darker and darker, and these people crowded around Ji Wuhuan, finally he couldn't bear it and broke out. He pulled the young man to his side and raised He scolded loudly: "Hey, get out of the way!!"

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" He Shaoyan's assistant rushed over to smooth things over, telling them to let Nie Yuan go, and go to other things first, and wait until He Shaoyan came back from the small meeting.

The researchers reluctantly looked at Nie Yuan with sparkling eyes, as if they were looking at a live dinosaur. Even Ji Wuhuan was asked a lot of strange questions.

When the office was emptied, the assistant apologized again and again: "I'm sorry, Mr. Nie and Mr. Ji, they are too excited."

From the establishment of the Dragon Soul to the present, at the beginning everyone was working hard to break it, but when the members changed and died in batches, I don’t know when, the old man at the beginning None left.

For many members, those who died were their close friends, brothers, sisters, teachers, and even relatives.

It is a fatal blow for many people to watch the people who used to be by their side die in the Rubik's Cube one by one.

"Morale is low. Dragon Soul, the largest organization in Z country, has been running until now. You should be able to see that it is actually a bit of a name."

During the half-month stay in Dragon Soul, apart from Min Yan and He Shaoyan, Ji Wuhuan and Nie Yuan have basically never seen other high-level personnel. Beyond breaking through the barriers is to get together to eat and drink.

It is not so much work as it is because we are too lonely to live together and live together.

A person's life is too short. The daily life of ordinary adults is nothing more than eating, sleeping, working, and supporting their families. Among them, earning money from work accounts for the largest proportion. Rubik's Cube players are basically not short of money, especially the members of Dragon Soul. intelligence.

Therefore, except for the necessary shifts, I will not stay in the company for a long time.

"Besides the strategy team, the research department is the only one that has persisted until now and is still working hard." The assistant sighed slightly: "So they finally see hope, and they are so excited."

The road to the pursuit of truth is always lonely and difficult.

Hearing this, Ji Wuhuan expressed her understanding, and Nie Yuan's dark face softened a little.

The young man patted his chest and sat down with weak hands and feet, and sighed sincerely: "I remembered the fear of being surrounded by reporters from all walks of life at the press conference."

Although Actor Ji has never been stage fright and loves to show off, he doesn't like the feeling of being confronted by countless microphones, flashing lights, and having to deal with a bunch of trap-style questions.

Nie Yuan rubbed his head, and said softly, "Baby, do you want to take a rest?"

"No!" Ji Wuhuan held Nie Yuan's hand instead, with words written on his face: What if you are suddenly captured by the Rubik's Cube?Anyway, I have fought with them before, and I can still biubiu!

The young man once again imagined the scene where he drew red light at random, and slapped the table vigorously, and dubbed himself: "biu--" Of course, there is still nothing, but now he can crack the glass with a single slap. .

Facing the assistant's shocked eyes, Ji Wuhuan looked at Nie Yuan beside him, immediately softened, shyly retreated into the man's arms for a second, and said with a playful smile: "It's disgusting!"

"Pfft." Nie Yuan was amused: "Fool."

The assistant was shown a face, and went out silently,

After he left, Ji Wuhuan pressed close to Nie Yuan's ear and asked softly: "Speaking of which, Yuanyuan, you said before that I would not be discovered by the system, it was special, what did you mean?"

They didn't tell Dragon Soul the identity of Ji Wuhuan's traverser for the time being, one reason was to protect him.This matter is no small matter, even if Min Yan and others are trustworthy, there is no guarantee that other people will not have bad intentions.The second is that in the current situation, it does not have much effect.

Although Ji Wuhuan had the ability to fight against that force, but now, at least before his memory is completely restored, he is just a player with much stronger strength than ordinary people, and some players whose body has been strengthened to the extreme can also do it.

Nie Yuan pushed all the bugs on Ji Wuhuan to himself, saying that he caused them, after all, the two have been teaming up.

This statement is a bit far-fetched. Although He Shaoyan and others had doubts, they did not get to the bottom of it. The main reason is that there is no time to study Ji Wuhuan's particularity.

"Baby, look at this." Nie Yuan looked behind him first, and after making sure that there was no one and the camera, he took out his mobile phone and opened a video.

The things played in it are not unfamiliar. Ji Wuhuan has seen the surveillance video of the car accident at the intersection when the two entered the game for the first time.

In the video, besides Nie Yuan, there are three other people around.

At that time, the truck suddenly failed and rushed to the front when turning a corner at the intersection. Nie Yuan reacted quickly and took half a step back suddenly, but was blocked by the three people standing behind him playing with their mobile phones with their heads down. They were about to be hit and fly At that time, he seemed to be pushed hard by someone, turned his whole body, and retreated more than one meter in the other direction, just avoiding the impact of the truck, and the three passers-by were hit straight, He died on the spot and was crushed into minced meat.

As for Ji Wuhuan himself, he disappeared directly from the video, as if he had never been there at all.

"What's wrong?" Ji Wuhuan didn't understand why Nie Yuan showed him this.

"I later checked the information of those who died, and found that they were also participants in that game." Nie Yuan showed him the information he had checked before.

"Xu Nanyi and Zhao Ren?!"

That's right, two of the three deceased were novice players of that game. Since they were novice players, they hadn't had the habit of using pseudonyms, so they reported their real names.

Moreover, Nie Yuan still has a video of the two shopping in other places before reaching the intersection. Compared with the surveillance video at the intersection, those couples are clearer, and they can clearly see their clothes.

It was exactly what they were wearing when they entered the game.

"We all thought that you brought me in when you entered the Rubik's Cube game, but it probably wasn't the case." Nie Yuan pointed to one of the shots: "The moment the truck hit, the first thing I bumped into was the one behind me." That man is Zhao Ren, so it's probably not you who brought me into the game, but him."

"what?"

"Baby, do you remember? In that game, there were either two people or one person living in each room, except us, we had three people."

Nie Yuan, Ji Wuhuan and Fatty Li Gang.

When I first entered the game, the Ghost Baby Villa was a fantasy world of a mentally ill hostess. In fact, it was originally a mental hospital. Each room is equipped with a sofa, and there are only two places where people can lie down and rest.

"There is a small sofa in the single room, and a big sofa in the double room. If you guessed right, in the real hospital, the sofa is also a bed. It is a double room, but it becomes a sofa in the boss' fantasy ."

"Really?" Ji Wuhuan questioned, "But none of us saw it with our own eyes."

They were all in the canteen when the hostess's psychic vision collapsed and failed to see the scene in the room.

Indeed, these are not decisive factors, what really determines is: "Baby, you don't have a Rubik's cube."

At first they all thought it was Ji Wuhuan who lost the Rubik's Cube, but it is very likely that from the very beginning, the young man was not controlled by the Rubik's Cube system, he was not registered as a Rubik's Cube player, and it was not he who brought Nie Yuan into the Rubik's Cube when the car accident happened. in the game.

Instead, at the moment of life and death, he unintentionally activated his passive skill Transcending Space, and followed Nie Yuan into it.

The first time I went in through informal channels, of course there was no Rubik's Cube when I came out.

"So the loopholes in your body have always existed, and you have probably never been under the supervision of the Rubik's Cube game." Nie Yuan concluded: "I guess it should be because you are not from this plane. You are wounded by that force in your body, so the Rubik's Cube points are of no use to you."

You can't cure old injuries and you can't cure myopia.

"Ah?! If that's the case..." Ji Wuhuan opened his mouth and froze for a long time: "Then am I trying to find a way to suffer? I became a player of the Rubik's Cube on my own initiative?"

"En." Nie Yuan nodded cruelly and slowly.

"Ahhhhh--!" Ji Wuhuan fell down on the sofa in an instant, slapped the sofa cushion angrily, and screamed like a groundhog: "Rubbik's Cube, I'll fuck you! I'll fuck you [beep] --]!"

Damn it, he just said why he felt something was wrong at the time, and he was so reluctant to change the tie, dare I say so!His instincts are spot on!

The young man screamed out of anger again, when he thought of the painful experience of the past year, and thought that this was actually his own crime, he was so angry that he cursed Rubik's Cube and trembled all over.

The assistant who came in to deliver the tea was taken aback by him, put down the cup and hurried away.

Nie Yuan hurriedly coaxed: "Blame me, blame me, I should have reminded you to find the Rubik's Cube before leaving the game."

"Yuanyuan, why don't you tell me now!!"

The man held his forehead helplessly: "Bao, you insisted on asking."

After experiencing the previous things, how dare he hide it from him.

Let him sell himself as an entertainer once, and let him do it again, so he won't lose his skin?

"Forget it." After roaring alone for half an hour, Ji Wuhuan calmed down: "If you think about it carefully, at least it's not a loss if you give me a date."

"Oh?"

"Oh what, it's you!" Ji Wuhuan sat up and nodded his nose when a man was a man, curling his lips: "Look at you, you have been secretly in love with me for so long, and I have been so dark for a long time just to arouse the love of this actor Pay attention? If I hadn't joined the Rubik's Cube game, wouldn't you plan to confess your love to me in this life?"

Indeed, if he hadn't met in the Rubik's Cube game, Nie Yuan might never have confessed his love to Ji Wuhuan in his life.

Let alone confessing, the two may never have too much communication in their lives.

"At that time, I didn't realize that I liked you." Nie Yuan put his arms around him and said calmly, "But even if I realized it, I probably wouldn't come to you."

As a Rubik's Cube player, no one knows how long they can live. Compared to letting the loved one die in agony, it's better that it never happened from the beginning.

The encounter in the Rubik's Cube game gave them another possibility, which changed their lives from parallel lines to intersecting lines, and they were entangled forever.

Therefore, young people can only comfort themselves, at least they play games to send their boyfriends, which is not a loss.

"By the way, Yuanyuan, I have another question. Do you know why I fought with those aliens?" Ji Wuhuan was curious.

"I don't understand your language." Nie Yuan shook his head to express his confusion: "But it seems that you took the initiative to attack."

At that time, the power possessed by his consciousness was ordered to invade.

"Then why did I take the initiative to hit others?" Ji Wuhuan was even more puzzled.

Although he has recalled a lot of things, his name, relatives, friends, and some things he has experienced, he still can't remember who he is, where he came from, and why he fought with aliens.

The next day, most of the Dragon Soul executives summoned by Min Yan were in place, and the legendary Dragon Soul boss, Min Yan's uncle also arrived.

A group of people sat down in the big conference room. He Shaoyan held the clues he got from Nie Yuan last night and announced the plan ABCD.

Ji Wuhuan was very serious at first, but he couldn't get up later, and secretly fell asleep wearing a mask, but even when he fell asleep, he quietly hooked the man's hand with his little finger.

I'm afraid Rubik's Cube will suddenly come out to snatch people.

The plan is generally divided into two steps.

The first step is to create a "virus" that can modify data in Rubik's Cube language by analyzing what they brought out of the Rubik's Cube and the information Nie Yuan knows.

In the second step, Nie Yuan re-enters the game, finds a data loophole, puts this "virus" into it, hacks into it, and then he can modify the data.

It looks like two steps, but the first step alone is extremely difficult.

Dragon Soul should have wanted to do it alone at first, but soon discovered that the workload was astonishingly large and the difficulty was also astonishingly large. In order to speed up the progress, he had no choice but to find foreign aid and joined forces with several large organizations around the world to share information and work together.

During this period, Ji Wuhuan seemed to have nothing else to do. He didn't know Rubik's Cube language or data, and after he terminated his contract with World Star Entertainment, he didn't have much business to do every day, so he followed the busy Nie Yuan around. I'm afraid he will be snatched away by Rubik's Cube.

Wherever the man is, he will be there. If you are hungry, you can eat something. If you are sleepy, you can find a sofa or chair to curl up and rest for a while. When you open your eyes, the first thing you do is look for him.

That night, he sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows on the top floor of the Dragon Soul Building and waited for Nie Yuan. Below was the brightly lit night scene. Looking at it, the lights seemed to suddenly turn blue, and the dazzling blue light illuminated his eyes. , turning a dark purple.

In a trance, everything around him seemed to disappear, and there was blue light everywhere, and he saw dazzling roads in the blue light, and two or three people with blue light all over came out.

They are more like ghosts than human beings. They have human-like shapes and facial features, but the surface of their bodies is covered with a layer of dazzling blue light.

One of them held out a hand to him.

"Hello."

"Baby?"

Hearing the man's voice, the scene in front of Ji Wuhuan disappeared instantly.

"Baby, are you sleepy? Go to bed and sleep." As soon as Nie Yuan came out of the conference room, he saw Ji Wuhuan sitting outside and fell asleep.

"I fell asleep?" Ji Wuhuan tilted his head, so what he saw just now was another dream?Part of his memories?

Seeing the young man in a trance, Nie Yuan was moved and distressed, hugged him from behind, and persuaded again: "Baby, go to sleep, I will sleep with you later."

"I'm fine." Ji Wuhuan shook his head stubbornly, he raised his head and kissed Nie Yuan's forehead: "You are not tired, why am I tired? I will always be with you."

"Okay." Nie Yuan kissed him back with a smile: "Then I will come to you later, and we go to rest together?"

"Okay." Ji Wuhuan nodded obediently, but when the man turned around, he suddenly grabbed his hand.

"What's wrong?"

"No..." Ji Wuhuan said hesitantly, he couldn't say why, the plan was going smoothly, but he felt some bad premonition in his heart, finally he let go: "Yuanyuan, you go, I'll be right here waiting for you!"

"good."

What was the ghost image I saw in that dream just now? Could it be an alien?Why can he understand their language?Could it be that he took the initiative to invade other people's civilization?Could this be the cause of their fight?

Who is he?

The author has something to say:

The Rubik's Cube far away: ah chirp--
