Quick Wear: Passerby A's Counterattack Revised Plot

Shi Qi looked around, and a trace of doubt arose in his heart: "Huh? How come there is really one person missing? Could it be that..."

Little A seemed to notice everyone's confusion and coughed lightly, attracting everyone's attention: "Dear players, please be quiet. We have confirmed the absent player and regretfully inform you that he cannot continue to participate in this game due to personal reasons, so he has been automatically eliminated."

Upon hearing the news, everyone started talking and the atmosphere became a little tense.

Shi Qi also frowned. Although she was not familiar with the absent player, she always felt that there was something unusual about this matter.

The woman in the windbreaker walked up to Shi Qi and whispered, "It seems that this game is much more complicated than we thought. We need to be more careful."

Shi Qi nodded in agreement. "Hello, my name is Shi Qi." She extended her hand to show her friendliness.

The woman in the windbreaker smiled, held Shi Qi's hand, and said, "My name is Gu Huaian, nice to meet you."

"Gu Huaian, do you think this player's absence is really just due to personal reasons?" Shi Qi lowered his voice, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.

Gu Huaian shook his head slightly, frowning: "I don't think it's that simple. The rules of this game are full of unknowns. Now there is a sudden absence of players. It is very likely that some hidden mechanism in the game is at work."

"You mean..." Shi Qi was startled, as if he had thought of something.

"I think we should unite and jointly face the challenges in this game." Gu Huaian's eyes were firm and his tone was full of determination.

Shi Qi nodded, thinking that what Gu Huaian said made sense. She looked around and found that other players were also talking about it, and they were obviously confused and worried about the absent player.

"Everyone, please be quiet!" Little A spoke again, interrupting everyone's discussion. "I know everyone is concerned about this absent player, but the most important thing for us now is to continue the game. Please return to your seats. The game must continue. Please take care of yourself first, and then worry about others."

Upon hearing this, everyone returned to their seats. Although the atmosphere was still tense, order was restored.

"Let me confirm again, are you sure you choose not to share the clues you got?" Little A looked at those people and said.

The men exchanged glances and finally nodded, indicating that they were sure not to share the clues. Little A sighed softly, seemingly not surprised by the result.

"Well, since you have made your decision, I will respect your choice." Xiao A said, taking out a piece of paper from his pocket, unfolding it and glancing at it. "Next, we will move on to the next stage of the game. Come with me! I will notify you, and the rest of you will wait here in Yingtan."

As Xiao A finished speaking, several players who chose not to share clues stood up and followed him to the other end of the room, leaving the others, including Shi Qi and Gu Huaian, waiting for Yingtan.

Shi Qi and Gu Huaian looked at each other, and they could read a hint of vigilance and curiosity in each other's eyes. The lights in the room flickered slightly.

"What do you think they will find?" Gu Huaian asked softly, her fingers tapping lightly on the armrest of the chair.

"I'm not sure. It's just those few clues, going around in circles, giving more to this one and less to that one. In short, I won't give you everything." Shi Qi said, looking at the backs of those people who followed Xiao A away.

"However, I always feel that the designer of this game has some greater purpose." Shi Qi lowered his voice and continued close to Gu Huaian's ear, "From the moment we entered this game, every step seemed to be carefully planned. The disappearance of the player may be just a part of this complex game layout."

Shi Qi comforted Gu Huaian, "But don't be too nervous. When the time is up, we will go out, provided that you can hold on until then."

Gu Huaian smiled, with a sly look in his eyes: "It's no problem for me to hold on until then, but you, Shi Qi, come on."

At this moment, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open, and Yingtan walked in with a serious face. Standing in the middle of the hall, he swept his eyes over everyone and spoke in a steady voice: "Dear players, thank you for your cooperation. Now, let's share the clues we have obtained."

Yingtan cleared his throat and continued, "I know that some of you players have chosen not to share clues, and this is your right. But what I want to tell you now is that for the smooth progress of the game and your safety, sharing clues is crucial. I hope you can persuade those players who don't want to share their clues."

"Mr. Yingtan, are you saying that our safety is threatened?" a player asked bravely.

Yingtan's expression became more solemn. He nodded slowly, his eyes revealing a seriousness that could not be ignored: "Yes, I must tell you frankly that as the game progresses, the dangers you encounter will increase exponentially, and the next batch of players will be sent.

We chose to let you participate in this dungeon game because we believe that you can bring light to this place and liberate the undead here, not to make you a sacrifice. The plot and rules in the castle are real, but they are created by "it" with subjective will. You have to distinguish them by yourself.

As for me, I am just an undead ghost with self-awareness and can't help you in any way.

Finally, I want to remind you that clues will change and are useless. You are not looking for the same thing. Do not believe the information given by the clues. Believe in yourself. Remember, do not doubt yourself!!! Be careful, bye."

"Wait, has anyone been out of this copy before?" Gu Huaian asked.

Yingtan replied, "Of course there is. This dungeon game is not that difficult. The difficulty lies in the fact that as more people enter the dungeon, the mortality rate increases. Once a critical point is reached, it will become a place where you can only enter but not leave."

"Then...what should we do?" another player asked in a trembling voice, obviously frightened by Yingtan's words.

Yingtan was silent for a while, then slowly said: "I'm sorry, this is your business, of course I can't do anything about it, just do your best and leave the rest to fate."

Yingtan's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting everyone's heart and plunging the whole room into a brief silence.

[Four days later, the next batch of players will enter. At that time, the players who remain in the dungeon will serve as nutrients for the dungeon.]

Everyone looked at each other with heavy hearts. At this time, one of the players stood up and broke the silence.

"In this case, we can only unite as one and face this challenge together," he said. "We can't just sit there and wait for death. We have to take the initiative to look for clues and solve the puzzle. Moreover, we can no longer blindly trust clues. We have to rely on our own judgment and intuition."

The others nodded in agreement, and they began to discuss their next plan of action.

"Let's split up and search the castle first, and keep an eye out for anything unusual." Another player suggested, "At the same time, we must remain vigilant and avoid falling into traps."

The decision was made, and the players dispersed and began to explore in an intense and orderly manner. Time was running out, and they had to find a way to escape the dungeon as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

After Shi Qi separated from them, she found Bian Tingchu and asked, "Did you notify us by when we must publish the copy?"

Bian Tingchu replied in bewilderment: "No! What's wrong? What did you notify?"

Shi Qi sighed, "We were notified that the next batch of players will enter in four days. If we can't leave the dungeon before then, we'll have to stay in it forever!"

Bian Tingchu's eyes widened in surprise, his mouth slightly opened: "Stay in the dungeon?! Damn, we haven't even said anything yet, and they just asked us to collect clues."

Shi Qi shrugged, spread his hands, and put forward a bold hypothesis: "Well... let's say, is there a possibility that you are the next batch of players to come in?"

When Bian Ting first heard Shi Qi's hypothesis, an expression of disbelief appeared on her face. She scratched her head and said in confusion: "This...how is this possible? We clearly came in together!"
