Doomsday Wonderland Chapter 1499: Hate for no reason
Before he could hear any reply, Lin Sanjiu was dragged into darkness.
She couldn't feel whether Yu Yuan was dragged down with her; she was also confused as to how long this moment lasted. Then, her head suddenly hit something hard, and the real sharp pain jolted her; she suddenly fell to the ground, rolled on the spot, and jumped up.
Her own heavy breathing was not the only sound she could hear in the air. The rustling sound of the wind blowing through the leaves, the occasional distant bird song, and the lingering sound of blood hitting the eardrums. Then the field of vision gradually became clearer: the sun was shining over Lin Sanjiu's shoulders, and dust like light spots was swirling in the air. A large old-fashioned single chair was sitting crookedly in the room, with a chair next to it. The side table was knocked over and a glass of orange juice wet the carpet.
... It took Lin Sanjiu half a second to look away from the remaining orange juice in the glass.
Why is this race that uses words to construct the world so close to human living habits? The answer was placed in front of her in the next moment.
A man pressed his hands on the door behind him, his eyes wide open, staring at Lin Sanjiu, as if she had suddenly fallen out of thin air. When he is shocked, his pupils will shrink, his nostrils will dilate, and his complexion will turn pale; there are veins on the back of his hands, his hair is tangled due to oil, and there are a few red pimples on one cheek.
"He is a human being." Yu Yuan got up from the ground and said calmly, "An evolver."
Lin Sanjiu also saw this, but she still couldn't understand it.
She looked around the room subconsciously.
The four walls of the room, from floor to ceiling, are lined with tall bookshelves filled with thick tomes. Behind her was a desk; it only took one glance to tell her where she had fallen - there was an old typewriter on the desk and a dictionary beside it.
The dictionary is wrapped in a light blue hard case, with "Text Material Booklet" written in gold-plated fonts; what is placed on the old typewriter is not a piece of white paper, but a piece of pale light the size of a white paper and looks like a white paper. Screen. Looking from the other side, she could still see some inverted words, each stroke flowing, like light smoke or ink.
I saw it, I understood it, but her brain still seemed to be refusing to put the fragmented information together.
"You...who are you?" Lin Sanjiu asked hoarsely.
When the man spoke, her last trace of luck was shattered. The voice that was singing a ditty just now from the depths of the earth now sounded clearly from the man's mouth: "I just want to ask, who are you?"
"Why...you can use words to construct games?"
"How did you fall out again?" The man calmed down his shock, regained his footing, and his tone was a bit harsher than before. "Where did you come from?"
If he didn't know better, just by listening to his tone, Lin Sanjiu might have thought that he had made some mistake and was being trained. He was already in the same space as himself, and there was no strange white paper blocking him, but - why was he so confident?
"We are trapped." Yu Yuan looked around at their feet and said, "He must have used some kind of restricted special item at the moment we just fell out. ”
The man crossed his arms, nodded, and smiled coldly. There was absolutely no need to laugh, and he had no intention of laughing. The smile came and went suddenly, and the muscles of his face sank again. "This is [Drawing the Ground as a Prison], let me introduce it to you."
Although Lin Sanjiu can turn the effects of items into cards, she has no way to deal with the ones that cover her. The air around her seemed to be the same; looking at the library, she asked in a low voice: "Is this... a new game launch conference?"
The man pursed his lips and looked at the two of them from head to toe. "I don't have to answer any of your questions," he answered with an inexplicable sense of pleasure, his smile tremblingly falling behind his muscles and being suppressed without rising. It was as if his refusal to answer the question was not out of self-preservation, but rather brought him great pleasure. "It doesn't make sense if I answer."
There was no point in answering specifically why. He didn't go into details, and Lin Sanjiu didn't need him to go into details - his threat was already hidden in every word.
"Being able to use special items means that he is an evolved person, an ordinary human being." She turned back to Yu Yuan and said, "Can you find a way to neutralize the effect of this item?"
"I can try." Yu Yuan said as he stretched out his hand forward.
The next second, before Lin Sanjiu could even react, a string of blue-white electric sparks exploded in the air - Yu Yuan didn't even hum, and fell straight to the ground with a thud. After the trembling caused by the electric current, he stopped moving.
"Didn't I mention it?" The man suddenly realized and smiled. "The biggest advantage of this item is that out of self-preservation, it will respond differently to the various methods and actions of the prisoner to ensure that the prisoner cannot get out. I know the voltage just now, it is as high as 10,000 volts. I If it were you, I would start observing silence now."
Lin Sanjiu did not touch Yu Yuan, but still looked straight at him.
It was obviously the first time for the man to encounter such a situation. He stood there almost helpless for a while, his expression becoming increasingly gloomy and ugly as he stared at Lin Sanjiu.
"Since I can't get out, and you don't know what to do with me for the moment, we might as well have a chat." After a while, Lin Sanjiu said - this sentence seemed to startle him. Jump. The man calmed himself down and remained alert and silent.
"You can't be the person behind the creation of this game world, right?"
When Lin Sanjiu first caught a glimpse of this man, she was 70% or 80% sure. This was an ordinary low-level evolver. If it had been at any other time or place, the other party might not even have the confidence to talk to Lin Sanjiu - the gap in combat power between the two was so huge.
This was clearly just a statement to state the facts, but when the man heard it, his face twisted slightly.
Lin Sanjiu glanced at him, slightly doubtful in her heart. She looked at Yu Yuan, who was motionless on the ground, and continued: "You and I are just ordinary human beings. We have never met each other before, and we have no enmity. I think there is no need to be so tit-for-tat. Instead, we can communicate with each other. Cooperate with each other. If you are worried that I will hold a grudge against you, you don’t need to——"
"Stop talking nonsense," the man waved his hand, "You just want to trick me into letting you out."
"As a human being, I can understand your defensiveness." Lin Sanjiu would not be silenced by him with a wave of his hand. He was still persuading: "You are out of self-preservation and out of fear. Because of defense, you attacked us first, and I understand this. Don’t worry, I don’t hold a grudge against you because you didn’t cause—”
"Have you said enough?" The man suddenly raised his voice, "Who do you think you are? Who is afraid of you? You don't even look at what you look like now."
Lin Sanjiu was stunned.
She was very sure that she had never seen this person before today. But the vague feeling in her heart was becoming clearer and clearer now, and it was difficult for her to deny it. This was really a time that tested her patience. She suppressed her anger and said slowly: "I don't think I am anyone. I am just an ordinary evolver like you. If you are coerced or forced by someone, kind of rules, I have to write the game here, so we can help each other..."
"Help? Do you think I'm a fool?" The man laughed again, "You can't even look at your companions even if they are dead or injured, how dare I help you?"
Lin Sanjiu breathed a sigh of relief. "If you are only concerned about this reason——"
But the man had no intention of listening to her. "I've seen too many hypocrites like you who can't say enough good things. Don't be disgusting here. Let me tell you, you are unlucky today. Once you come in, you can't get out."
His eyes were filled with blood at some point, and his pupils were as narrow as pinpoints, as if he wanted to pierce Lin Sanjiu's blood. "No one can know what I am doing here."
Lin Sanjiu straightened up. "...Do I know you?"
"What?" The man was startled, "You don't know me."
"Why do you seem to hate me so much when we first met?" Lin Sanjiu asked, tilting her head.
"I have never seen an evolver with such a stupid disease as you." The man chuckled softly and said almost happily: "You are on the verge of death, but you are talking useless nonsense. .Who has time to hate you? Who are you? Do you think you are too great? I will kill you ~IndoMTL.com~ because I can, because in the apocalyptic world, the law of the jungle is always the strongest, understand?"
Perhaps because he just remembered the puppet master, something he once said came to Lin Sanjiu's mind, "Good words can't persuade a **** ghost."
She just couldn't figure out where the other person's hatred came from when they met for the first time without any grievances or grudges - everything must happen for a reason. How can there be unreasonable hatred in the world?
"Then what are you going to do with us?" She stopped trying to persuade her and asked, crossing her arms. Yu Yuan is still lying on the ground as he is, looking more like a corpse than a dead body - if she hadn't personally experienced what happened after he fell into the elevator shaft and was repaired, she might not be able to calm down now.
The man pursed his lips and said nothing, but suddenly reached out his hand and flipped the light switch on the wall. With a "pop", the room suddenly became so dark and gloomy that it turned the color of cement - not because the lights were turned off, but because the windows, sunlight, and birdsong... were all turned off by the switch.
What is left in front of you is a narrow space like a rectangular cement box. Lin Sanjiu had been to a similar space once and participated in the "elephant in the room" game there.
Everything disappeared except the door behind the man.
He was standing between the half-open door and said slowly: "I will never come to this room again. When you finish eating the food, you can still eat his body."
