Doomsday Wonderland Chapter 491: The night before departure
As soon as Ci Tu finished speaking, he heard a "gud-dong" sound, and Libao swallowed loudly in the silence; the ponytail in his hand fell down, and his long hair fell down one shoulder.
"Hunting, hunting visa officer?" Libao stuttered a little, looking guilty: "...What exactly is going on?"
As soon as he said this, No. 46 immediately glanced at him, and slowly raised an eyebrow thoughtfully - Kiyokuru sighed softly when he saw this, turned to the gift bag and said : "Your behavior is as if someone is going to kill you next time. It's just going to kill a few people, can't you be more courageous?"
No. 46 glanced at Qing Jiuru again and finally said nothing.
Xitu was obviously unaware of this subtle fluctuation. He reached out and patted the communication box unhappily, causing the image of No. 46 to shake several times before he said: "Let him give the details. You tell me - because these news were brought back by his candidates - look at them!"
After saying this, he glared at Lin Sanjiu and others with hatred.
No one said a word.
The communication box could not withstand such a slap from Santu's big hand. After a while, the image stopped shaking; No. 46 looked at several people on the screen with a look of helplessness towards this colleague. He nodded.
"I am another examiner sent to this world. My name is Si Lu." He calmly introduced himself as he watched several people - as if he had never seen Lin Sanjiu before.
But it’s funny to say that Lin Sanjiu experienced life and death with him, but it was only now that she learned his name for the first time.
No. 46, that is, Si Lu's expression cooled down and he continued: "Except for one candidate who is missing and may be dead," when he said this, Lin Sanjiu and the others immediately looked at each other. , both of them thought of the bespectacled man who was swallowed by the dimensional rift - "Several other candidates have found the visa officer during this period... let's not worry about life or death."
"The first visa officer, let's call him A - was found in a small gathering place for evolutionists."
... After discovering that the food in this world can cause people to become insane and incapacitated, how to continue life without eating has become the primary goal of the evolutionists who are lucky enough to still be conscious.
The leader of this gathering place is an evolver who happens to be born in a world of famine - because there are no grass roots and tree bark in his hometown, he has evolved a skill that "you can survive by drinking the northwest wind" Ability; not only can he drink it himself, but he can also share the northwest wind with others - in this way, a small gathering place quickly developed around this man with no trace of fat on his body.
A can be said to be the second most popular person after the leader; when he was found by the candidates, the visa in his hand had already been issued at the gathering place, and he had also exchanged a lot of various All kinds of supplies - so when he heard that an organization wanted to find a visa officer, A was not very interested.
"After the candidate entered the gathering place and quietly expressed his intention to come, A died the next week." When talking about the dead person, Si Lu's tone was flat and unwavering: "Died with A. Yes, there were five ordinary evolvers who had almost no grudges against each other. Even the leader who drank the northwest wind was one of the dead. At this time, the gathering place exploded. My candidate She was the last one to go in, so she became the first subject of suspicion. She lost an arm before escaping."
"...and when visa officer B was found, he was already a dead body." When Si Lu said this, he frowned slightly: "B has obviously just been transferred to this world. I guess at most It may have been less than two days, but I found it a bit incredible that he died so quickly."
"How do you know he just arrived?" Libao asked.
"Because I cut him open." Si Lu said calmly, "Judging from the contents of his stomach and intestines, he had eaten less than ten hours before his death - and only the In this world, people who don’t know what’s going on eat rashly.”
As a severe mysophobia patient, Ji Shanqing wrinkled his face.
The next two visa officers did not escape this routine: one candidate had just found out the location of C. After looking for it, he found that what greeted him was a body that had been dead for a long time. ;D was well-informed and didn't know what she was inquiring about. She actually came to the door on her own initiative and wanted to seek protection. After she issued a visa and proved her identity, she died that night.
I didn’t expect that so many things would happen during this period of time... Lin Sanjiu was a little surprised and asked quickly: "How did these people die?"
"Everyone died," Si Lu replied. "It seems that as long as it can kill people, this killer doesn't care much about his personal style. However, every dead visa officer has It was looted."
"If you had listened to me, you shouldn't have given her that special item." Citu suddenly added with a heartbroken look - obviously he was referring to the last visa officer D: "That The [X-ray machine] is so powerful, whoever it takes will die, and the result is so good now, it’s like giving it to the killer. Alas, you still didn’t think too well."
Si Lu's calm expression finally became distorted due to Ci Tu's hindsight.
"The visa issued before she died can no longer be used." Ci Tu sighed, "Although I don't want to go to the Olympics... but it's still a pity."
"Then what do you want us to do when you come today?" Ji Shanqing asked, playing with his hair.
"Judging from the time of death of these visa officers, this secret killer should not be coming for us. His goal seems to be just to kill all the visa officers - although I don't know the reason why he did this. ." Si Lu frowned, picked up a glass of water from outside the screen and took a sip: "...So, your most important task now is to find a living visa officer before this killer. And protect him."
...For the first time, the task given by this nameless organization coincided with my goal.
When Lin Sanjiu thought of this, he couldn't help but glance at the great witch. When her gray-blue eyes were closed and the corners of her mouth could no longer form a charming smile, she did look like she had aged; wherever time had touched her, the originally tight skin seemed to have loosened. He took a breath and softened slightly.
If you want to take the Great Miko with you, a visa is a must - although a gift package can also be used to issue a visa, no matter how you look at it, his visa has an aura of unreliability. It would be better to say that it is more like a joke. .
"Okay," Lin Sanjiu withdrew her gaze and agreed happily, "Let's take a short rest before setting off - do you have any clues about the visa officer now?"
"Oh, I brought a map," Citu suddenly pulled out a crumpled map from the communication box and unfolded it in front of several people. There is a line of words written vertically on the left side of the map, which looks similar to Chinese, except that almost every word is mixed with a few strange strokes and symbols; but even so, it can still be seen that the line says "Eastern District" "Ten Ding Pictures".
"The administrative divisions of this world are a bit awkward," Situ said, pointing to a circle drawn with a blue ballpoint pen on the map: "We are currently at this location, which should be the third ding. You see Did you get the red circle?"
The heads of Lin Sanjiu and the others came together, and they all nodded at the same time.
"...This big red circle is the area where the visa officer was found dead, probably from the first ding all the way to the sixth ding. This range is not small, and beyond the tenth ding is the sea. After all, this is as big as several medium-sized countries."
The so-called ten dings are more like ten irregularly shaped circles, one ring inside the other, and the whole is stretched into a semi-elliptical shape with a pointed end. According to Ci Tu, this map covers at least a quarter of the world.
"There are four or five visa officers in this area, I guess they are about the same." Si Lu said thoughtfully, "...if I were the killer, I would go to places I have never been to. Find a visa officer somewhere.”
"But we don't know where he came from," Libao asked immediately. "What if the direction we go to is exactly the direction he came from..."
"So we split up." Si Lu replied, "Divided into several groups and walked in different directions. This killer's ability is very remarkable, and he has taken so many things from the visa officer. Any group of people can attack him alone. There may be no chance of winning against him; so once you find the visa officer, you must notify other people as soon as possible."
After no longer having to hide and having a common goal, no matter what we talked about became much smoother; everyone discussed the details for a while, and soon settled on a battle plan and decided who would Lin Sanjiu and his group were walking in the direction of the tenth ring road while looking for the visa officer.
Although looking at Ci Tu's appearance, he wished they could set off immediately; but after spending such a long day, Lin Sanjiu and his party were really exhausted - as soon as Ci Tu left, the gift bags and clear clothes Jiu Liu immediately spread out the pillows and quilts in the "" suite and fell into the big bed in the master bedroom. They both thought this bed was good and didn't want to go to the guest bed in another room, so they agreed that when it was time to go to bed, they would play guessing games and the one who won two out of three games would stay - the bed was very big anyway, so the ones who stayed You can share this bed with Lin Sanjiu.
Lin Sanjiu didn't care much about who would sleep with her - anyway, in her eyes, these two people were basically no different from Rabbit and Doctor Hu; she dried the big witch carefully After taking care of her body and changing her into dry clothes according to her favorite style, Lin Sanjiu took a long breath and sat down by the window after settling the witch on the chaise longue. He took out the small ball left by the great miko.
"Aren't you tired, sister?" A face emerged from the thick, soft bed like a cloud. It was a gift bag: "What are you...what else are you doing?"
"I'll try to see if I can wake up my [Consciousness Hall]," she responded, "... Only by awakening the [Consciousness Hall] can I possibly return to the starry sky of consciousness."
Libao buried his face in the quilt and grumbled.
"What did you say?" Lin Sanjiu didn't hear clearly for a moment, and asked while using his consciousness to float a small ball.
Before the gift bag could say anything, he suddenly turned over the quilt on the big bed a few more times. It turned out that Qing Jiuziu had poked out, revealing a face that was drunk and lazy at some point; he A pair of eyes were watery, as if filled with starlight.
"He said," he opened his mouth and burped first: "...it will be very troublesome to go back."
Ji Shanqing suddenly raised his head and stared at Qing Jiuliu.
Lin Sanjiu slowly raised an eyebrow and looked at the gift bag: "...What do you mean?"
"He heard wrong." Libao thought for a while and came up with this really stupid excuse - Qingjiuliu immediately said "I didn't" - Libao stiffened his neck under Lin Sanjiu's gaze. After holding on for a while, he finally gave in and softened: "I...I mean, even if you return to the Consciousness Starry Sky, I'm afraid you won't be able to find the Great Miko for a while."
"...Why?" Lin Sanjiu narrowed her eyes.
"When you left last time, weren't you in a 'two-person three-legged prison escape game'?" Libao sighed, knowing that he couldn't do it without telling him - he originally suppressed this guess and refused to tell Lin Sanjiu , just for fear that she would be under pressure when she found out; but she didn't expect that she would be accidentally exposed by Qing Jiu today.
After thinking for a while, he carefully worded his words: "Based on the game environment and some of the rules you described at that time, I guess that mechanical life J7... can't complete this two-player game without you... It’s a game. If you go back, it’s okay if you go back to the outside of the game; I’m afraid you’ll go back to the prison game again... By then, I’m afraid you’ll have to cooperate with J7 to get out.”
Lin Sanjiu opened her mouth with a look of shock and surprise - it was not that she couldn't figure out why the gift package refused to tell her; blinking hard, Lin Sanjiu stuttered and said: "Then In other words, is it possible that J7 is still in that prison game? Waiting for me to go back? It’s been such a long time——"
"This is just a guess on my part," Libao did not give a clear response, but quickly said as if to comfort him: "After all, I have never been there, and I don't understand. It is very possible that I guessed wrong."
Lin Sanjiu pursed her lips and glanced at the great witch on the chaise longue. She didn't say anything - and she didn't know what she was thinking.
After a while, she suddenly sighed and said softly: "You two can sleep here tonight."
"Eh?" Li Bao was stunned for a moment, "But...he smells like alcohol..."
"I'm going to try to push my limits tonight." Lin Sanjiu responded, looking at the ball in her hand, and her expression couldn't be seen from the side of her face.
No one in the room spoke for a while. ~IndoMTL.com~ In the night sky outside, a crescent moon like ice flakes slowly lit up; the moonlight fell in from the floor-to-ceiling window, dyeing Lin Sanjiu into a silhouette that was half silvery white and half dark.
"Sister..." Libao just uttered one word when she interrupted him.
"Since the extreme temperature hell, I have always lived one day at a time," Lin Sanjiu turned her head and said softly, showing him a comforting smile: "...God has arranged it for me. If anything happens, I will block it with soldiers and cover it with water and earth. Although there is no lack of struggle, I finally survive with the tide. But this is not enough."
As her voice fell, several small **** suddenly floated up at the same time, hovering rapidly in the air.
"If I want to control how and where this ship drives, I must have the ability to steer it." Lin Sanjiu said in a low voice, each word being very light but very determined. "...I want to speed up my growth. I want to decide for myself how to go in the apocalyptic world."
