Thriller Paradise Chapter 14:

On the way to the next room, Feng Bujue discovered a gratifying thing, that is, the [Equipment] column in his specialization level was turned on. It is now F-level, and I don’t know if he is playing with the walkman or The result of folding newspapers, just open it anyway. If the skills for clearance rewards are from the [Equipment] or [General] department, you should be able to learn directly.

　　 A few minutes later, he finally reached another red door, this time he opened the door and entered.

　　 The room is not big, and there are two TVs against the wall. There is a table in the middle of the room, and there is a key directly on the table. There was an upright pipe in the corner on the right hand side, which protruded about one meter from the ground. Feng Bujue walked over and took a look. The diameter was probably just enough to fit a tennis ball.

　　 This time he didn't touch anything, and the door behind him closed on its own. At the same time, one of the two televisions turned on, and the image of the white-faced doll appeared on the screen.

　　"Hello, Arthur, maybe you think the game is nearing the end, maybe you think you can leave here alive soon. But ask yourself, do you really have this qualification? A temporary act of kindness Can a moment of pain change your hypocritical nature?

　　 You and I know very well that you have not yet received real salvation. "

　　Feng Bujue didn’t speak. He felt that there was something wrong with this passage. The so-called "temporary benevolence" and "temporary pain" should refer to his choices when he passed the first two rooms. This shows that this video may have just been It's only a few minutes after the recording, or... the scene is simply playing live.

　　 The screen of the second TV suddenly lit up, and Feng Bujue saw an incredible scene, and Wang Tanzhi appeared on that TV. Wang Tanzhi in the picture is also walking in a corridor. He looks injured, with blood stains on his body and a strange walking posture.

　　"Rolling in Vanity Fair, you got to know a lot of villains who are good brothers to you. I believe that even if you learn that you are missing or dead, these people will not care. But... Arthur, you still have a friend, A true friend." The doll said: "John is also playing a game now, but his end is a dead end. And the only thing that can take him to escape, at the same time... is also something that can help you get out of here, that is The key on the table.

　　 You can use it to open the last door, or you can throw it into the pipe in the corner and send it to John.

　　 There is only one key. If the despicable and hypocritical Arthur Seager chooses to die, then the kind and upright John will survive.

　　Life and death, make your choice. "

　　Feng Bujue stared at the TV screen for two full minutes. He was thinking about what happened to Wang Tanzhi on the second TV. Is this just a false picture generated in my own script, or is I really seeing Wang Tanzhi in another single-player survival mode script at this moment? If it's the latter, then this system is too sharp, so that the scripts of two different players can overlap at a certain moment?

　　 He thought: It seems that the answer has to wait until the script is over before asking a little sigh. Now it can only be speculated and cannot be verified.

　　 At this time, Feng Bujue couldn't help but admire the brilliance of the script. The Arthur in the setting is indeed not a good person. The previous two levels are not enough to change anything, but the previous ones are just foreshadowing.

　　 According to the plot, the last choice is the key. If Arthur sacrificed John and chose to escape by himself, then he would be condemned by his conscience for the rest of his life, living in pain, and his selfish hypocrisy would be infinitely magnified and tortured his mind. Arthur will eventually go to the other extreme, becoming a crazy altruist, a true philanthropist, so that he can make his conscience better.

　　 This is the so-called "salvation", allowing players to respect and cherish life after the trial, and be grateful for the rest of their lives.

　　 Another situation is that Arthur chooses to die by himself and let his friend John live, which is directly a sacrificial redemption.

　　Feng Bujue shrugged, walked to the table, picked up the key, looked at the last closed door, and said to himself; "So, my script ended in failure. Ah..." He walked to the pipe and threw the key in without much thought.

　　 Then, the screen of the second TV was turned off, and the doll in the first TV spoke again: "An admirable choice, Arthur, don't worry, death is the sublimation of the soul." It seems this It's really not a video.

　　 "That door..." Feng Bujue turned his face, pointed in the direction of the door and said: "It leads to a dead end."

　　 The doll's neck turned slightly on the TV, but there was no response.

　　 "Your language is very interesting...and rigorous, I almost got deceived." Feng Bujue said: "Things that can take him'escape' are also things that can help me'get out of here.' He smiled: "Hehe...If I take the key to open the door, I will die instead, right?"

　　 The doll still didn't answer, and was silent.

　　 "You said I'can use it to open the last door', but you didn't say that you can live after opening it. I will only'leave'." Feng Bujue said: "And the most critical reminder It's just... "The despicable and hypocritical Arthur Siegel chooses to die, and the kind and upright John can survive." He spread his hands out: "It took me a few seconds to understand that this is not a conflict. At this moment, John With the key, he can survive, but the Arthur of the'despicable hypocrisy' is dead.

　　 is standing here so that friends can sacrifice themselves. Arthur Siege who passed the trial is an'admirable' person whose'soul has been sublimated~ IndoMTL.com~ I said Right? "

The 　　 doll finally spoke: "It's excellent, you have seen the rules of the game, but it makes me question the result of the trial."

　　"Are you really just a set of script data generated by the system?" Feng Bujue raised his eyes and walked to the TV: "For you, my choice is not a logical conclusion that is a foregone conclusion? I pass. Is it important to be based on conscience or cunning?" He squatted in front of the TV, lowered his voice in the same tone as in the recording, "The final choice of this script is actually not between life and death. It's a game about the id, ego, and superego.

　　 If I put myself into the ‘Arthur Sieger’ mentality, I would choose based on my own consciousness. The despicable reporter would undoubtedly abandon others and survive, and open the door with a key, and he would die.

　　 If I look at the problem completely with a ‘player’ mentality, I will choose with my own consciousness. For players in Thriller Paradise, this is nothing more than a script. The options are very simple, clearance or GAMEOVER. So, I will also take the key to open the door, or die.

　　Only a person who is brought into a subjective role with an objective mentality,'a player who plays Arthur Seag intently', can make a decision with the superego consciousness. That way, even if you don’t crack your tricks, I will Will choose to throw the key into the pipe, because this is the perfect interpretation of the script.

　　 And then, you will give me a surprise ending, right? "

　　The TV screen suddenly went black at this moment, as if the doll forcibly stopped this communication. Feng Bujue’s ear immediately sounded the familiar, non-emotional system prompt:

　　[You have completed the script, it will be sent automatically after 60 seconds]
