Sick beauty loses horse in thriller game

When Wen Ling, Wen Jiao and the other three heard Cheng Mujun tell them that their eyes could be restored, they all breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

However, Cheng Mujun quickly frowned and said the word "but".

At that moment, the four players' hearts, which had just been put at ease, were instantly lifted up again.

"Senior Cheng, please tell us what we should do to restore our eyesight?" Jin Jiahui asked hurriedly.

When she found that her healing skills were ineffective for her eye injuries and could not help her regain her eyesight, she panicked uncontrollably.

"You need to give up some things." Cheng Mujun said: "The administrator will select some items from the props on you as exchange. Then, after the spirit of the artifact in the Treasure Mansion is restored, it will help you restore your eyesight."

After saying that, Cheng Mujun looked at Jiang Lai.

"It will take quite some time for the weapon spirit to recover. Come with me first. I have something to tell you."

"Please wait a moment." Jiang Lai said, "Can you tell me how you got the cyan crystal heart? The spirit of the treasure house should have been separated from my friend's body. So how is my friend named Chu Feng doing now?"

Upon hearing this, Cheng Mujun looked at Jiang Lai deeply, and suddenly smiled at her.

"Think carefully. Are you sure that the man named Chu Feng... is really your friend? Do you really know him?"

"I……"

Jiang Lai was about to give an affirmative answer, but suddenly found that the memory of Deputy Director Chu in his mind suddenly became blurred.

"Of course we know Chu Feng." Wen Ling answered on behalf of Jiang Lai: "Chu Feng is the deputy director of the superior department of our Thorn Game Research and Investigation Bureau."

Wen Jiao and Jin Jiahui both nodded in agreement.

Only Fu Qiming seemed to have noticed something incredible, with a shocked expression on his face.

"Wenling, think carefully. We only have one deputy director, and his name is not Chu Feng, but Gao Shishan." Jiang Lai reminded: "Also, Deputy Director Gao is not a player of the Thorn Game. He is already 49 years old, not the young and vigorous Chu Feng in your impression."

"What did you say?! This...how is this possible!" Wen Ling looked at Jiang Lai in shock.

Then the expression on his face became even more shocked.

"Ah, I remember... you are right. Our deputy director is Gao Shishan. But Chu Feng... who is Chu Feng? If he is not our teammate, then who is the eighth person who entered this copy with us?!" Wen Ling said.

He remembered a joke on the Internet that the difference between Chinese horror and Western horror is that in Western horror, ten people go hiking and only one person comes back, while in Chinese horror, ten people go hiking and eleven people come back.

Compared to the former, the latter is more creepy.

And he had the same feeling at this moment.

If Chu Feng is not their teammate, not a member of the Thorn Game Research and Investigation Bureau, or even a player, then... who was the person who entered this dungeon with them in the first place, where is that person now, and what happened to him?

Why did he have no impression at all when he tried to recall the missing eighth member?

"It's normal that you don't have any memory of the eighth companion. Because before you were selected and entered this copy, this copy, or to be more precise, the power of the Treasure Mansion, had already begun to affect you." Cheng Mujun said.

"What?! At that time we hadn't even entered this copy, and hadn't even taken the ferry!" Wen Ling said.

He remembered that his memory of Chu Feng seemed to have started from when Jiang Lai was attacked.

"Haha, young man, haven't you heard a saying?" Cheng Mujun said faintly: "There is no such thing as coincidence in the world. Chance is actually just inevitability in disguise."

"You will be selected to enter this instance. This is a long-determined inevitability, not a random event. If you are bound to enter this instance during this game, then it is not impossible to do something in advance."

Cheng Mujun said something to Wenling that left Wenling dumbfounded.

He never imagined that his memory could be forcibly tampered with by a mysterious force.

What's even more terrifying is that he himself has no consciousness at all.

He believed that others were just as unaware of this as he was.

Even Jiang Lai, the strongest among them, is like this.

If it weren't for the administrator Cheng Mujun's reminder, Jiang Lai probably wouldn't have discovered Chu Feng. His identity itself was problematic.

Jiang Lai also frowned tightly, feeling deeply incredulous about everything related to Chu Feng.

After a long while, she spoke up, "The reason why we all have no memory of the eighth companion is because... he did not enter this instance with us. But... in the eyes of other colleagues in the Thorn Game Research and Investigation Bureau, he did enter this instance with us as a team."

"His number should be the one that was stolen by Chu Feng." Jiang Lai said.

After all, Chu Feng was not a real player, so it was impossible for him to exploit the loophole in the rules and make up a player number for himself.

As Jiang Lai spoke, he tried to transfer a point to the game number, or account, that Chu Feng had used before, hoping to test this method to see if that companion was still alive.

Although her idea was good, she waited for five minutes and did not get any response from the other party.

"Who is the colleague who left the Thorn Game Research and Investigation Bureau with us, and where is he now?" Wen Ling asked hurriedly.

"He... I'm afraid something went wrong when he arrived at the ferry. Now he's probably lost in the black fog at the ferry, and it's probably impossible for him to come back." Jiang Lai said.

She lowered her head slightly and spoke in a low voice, her tone full of sympathy and regret.

"Ah, I didn't expect the truth of the matter to be like this." Fu Qiming also shook his head and sighed.

That companion, before he had time to enter the game instance, was lost in the black fog and was replaced by Chu Feng. But they were unaware of this, and even under the rules of the Treasure Mansion, they couldn't even remember the companion's name.

Cheng Mujun looked at Jiang Lai.
