The countdown reached zero, and the circular white light on the ground suddenly turned into nothingness.Lu You's feet were empty and he fell straight down.

There is no sudden sense of weightlessness, just like a person who was already submerged in the water is slowly sinking.The delivery channel is a white beam of light that goes vertically downward visually. Once you enter it, you can't see the end up and down.

Lu You tried to move his hands and feet, but found that he could not change his position by "swimming", at most he could turn around on the spot.He looked around, but didn't see anything of the same substance floating around him, so he could only call out: "System?"

"I'm here." The system lazily replied, this time it sounded like the source of the sound was outside the beam of light, "I'm bound to your soul, there is no entity, otherwise if the host unconsciously changes his gaze when communicating point, may arouse suspicion.”

"The mysterious voice makes people feel very insecure." Lu You murmured, and then concentrated on thinking in his heart: Is this acceptable?

"Accepted." The system said, "This is the correct way. Host, please adapt to communicate with me with your heart as soon as possible. I will accept ideas with clear goals and take emergency measures in special situations. Other than that , will not spy on your thinking at will."

Lu You decided to trust the "character" of the system, judging from its previous performance, it should disdain to lie.The endless falling at a constant speed was a bit boring. He reached out to fish for the "light" that made up the channel, and found that there was still a thick fog that shone slightly in the light. "How long will this release process last?"

"It only takes a moment to truly travel through the world." The voice of the system was a little erratic, as if it was floating far and near, "The channel is to reduce the host's soul's rejection of the other world... Direct injection may cause the soul to be broken. After the transition of the channel, There will only be a short-term low-grade fever, numbness, loss of balance or loss of five senses."

"'There will only be'?" Lu You was shocked, "Every time I travel to the mission dungeon, I still get sick?"

"Long-distance travel in the world will still cause motion sickness and airsickness." The system said, "What's wrong with the sequelae of crossing?"

Lu You had nothing to say, and began to worry about what kind of situation would happen to him after this launch with his ups and downs of luck.I don't know what the system is doing. After a "click click" sound like typing on an old-fashioned keyboard, its voice suddenly becomes extremely flat, losing the humanized feeling it has always had: "The transmission of the mission data is complete. Please prepare the host to receive it."

There is a characteristic of the system in the previous launch and the current transmission of data: it will remind in advance, but the reminder is useless.After Lu You heard that sentence, he was only halfway through his thinking, and his eyes were dark again.

Lu You seemed to have had a short and chaotic dream.In the dream, he fell in love with a man, but this relationship only lasted less than two months.After seeing the true face of the man, he chose to leave, and he was constantly pestered for the next five years.Later, the admirer of the man's new lover came to his house and slit his throat with a box knife, clearing the "obstacle" for the man.

In the dream, Lu You felt no pain, but felt suffocation in which the trachea was cut and the air leaked through the crack every time he breathed.He fell to the ground, his body twitching weakly, and the blood gushing out from the breach in the main artery took away his body temperature.A pair of eyes implying struggle and madness looked down at him coldly from above, but there was almost sympathetic ridicule in his heart.

It's just a poor man who controls but doesn't know...

The man's face flashed before his eyes, and the lover's face he had seen once before.The lover had the same line of eyes as his, but a face younger and more beautiful.She smiled innocently and charmingly.

I hope that the two of you will be entangled forever...Hate each other, torture each other, and die badly...

Lu You opened his eyes, and all the emotions that did not belong to him swept away like an ebbing tide.

At the moment, he was lying on the bed in a curled up position, with his face pressed against the soft belly of the cuddling bear.There was a nice smell of grass in the room, and the temperature was low. Lu You subconsciously touched the pillow, got the remote control and turned off the air conditioner. The action was as natural as if he was really in his own room.He still felt cold, but his breath was full of hot air.

The body seems to have a fever... Is this what the system calls "sequelae"?

Lu You endured the headache and the weakness of his body, and slowly got up.It seems that "he" has not slept for a long time, and the computer on the bedside table has not yet entered hibernation, and the webpage on the screen shows the interface of the takeaway website prompting the payment to be successful.

When he lowered his head to look for his slippers, Lu You was so dizzy that he almost fell off the edge of the bed. He finally pulled out the two abandoned slippers from the bottom of the bed. He didn't need to recall the details of the dream just now. Instinct" went straight to the bathroom.The "data transmission" of the system does not seem to simply show him a piece of memory, but seems to integrate a little soul of the projected target into him. Thanks to this, Lu You adapts to the scene change almost without any obstacles.

Lu You stood in front of the sink, his current appearance was reflected in the mirror.

Unexpectedly, this face was almost identical to his original appearance.It's just that the eyes are narrower and longer, the corners of the eyes are slightly raised, the irises are transparent amber, and the eye waves flow when the gaze is slightly moved.Lu You immediately thought of a certain paragraph in the material.

...Lover's eyes resemble his profile...

A sense of absurdity emerged in his heart, and he immediately knocked on the system with his heart: "System! Come out of the system! I should be a soul wearer, right?"

The sound source of the system has always kept a certain distance from him, this time it came from outside the bathroom door. "Your original body is dead, of course it is soul wear." It said in a lazy voice that made people want to yawn, "but the body you are using now can be regarded as 'your own' body, which can be regarded as performing according to the requirements of the plot. Some fine-tuned replicas."

Lu You: "...Where is the original target?"

"Of course it has been recycled." The system said, "Why, you still want to wear someone else's body for fun?"

I'm not, I didn't... Lu You silently swallowed his excuse.As expected of the Chuangshi God's old man's behavior style, the eyes are the key to the plot, so only the eyes were fine-tuned.I don't know if the other characters in the plot will be surprised or take it for granted when they see him undergoing plastic surgery overnight?

However, this is his own body... The little repulsion that Lu You had in his heart dissipated now.

The face of the person in the mirror was pale, as if he had just returned from the underworld, but his cheeks were flushed from the heat.Lu You turned on the faucet, scooped up a handful of water with both hands and wiped his face. The water droplets stuck to his skin, and it became warm after a while.He had just straightened up when he suddenly heard a knock on the door.

Lu You's first reaction was the web interface he saw when he woke up.Probably a takeaway?He walked away from the sink in a daze, and just as he stepped out of the bathroom door with one foot, the knocking stopped.The surroundings became quiet again, and the people outside the door never loudly revealed their identities like the usual takeaway or courier.

Lu You began to feel that something was wrong.Immediately afterwards, the sound of a key being inserted into the lock and turned open came from the door.

"Friendly reminder," the system said slowly behind Lu You, "there are four minutes and 13 seconds left before the death of the projected target in the original script."

...Fuck!

He said that this scene looks familiar!This is the scene where the spare tire of the scumbag lover came to the door!It was also the last scene of this innocent ex-boyfriend who had an unlucky date with a scumbag and died before hitting the street!

Damn the system!Shouldn't he explain this kind of thing as soon as he wakes up!

The plot progressed like a runaway horse. Lu You, who thought he would always be given a day or two, or at least an hour or two, to adapt, wanted to cry without tears, and relive the horror of being hit by a zombie on the night of the end of the world.He immediately wanted to retreat into the bathroom and lock the door, and then call for help from the small window above the bathtub—he lived not high, on the third floor, and the street downstairs was not remote, and people often passed by, so he was rescued The possibility is still great.However, when Lu You saw the door in the bathroom with frosted carved glass inlaid in a wooden frame, which was beautiful and not strong at first glance, he rejected the idea within a tenth of a second of the idea.

Leaving aside why Mr. Bei Ti got his house key, the important thing is that Lu You knew that the door was not locked and could be opened from the outside with the key.It would be too late to go there and lock it now, Lu You had only one way: run into the bedroom, lock the door, and call the police with the mobile phone that was left next to the pillow.

He had a good idea, and it was very simple to execute, but Lu You missed the fatal point: the power to pass through the "sequela" on his body.He only took two steps in the background sound of the door being opened, his feet went limp as if all his strength had been taken away, his eyes were spinning, he staggered into the chair next to the dining table, and then fell to the ground together with the chair go down.

The onset of sequelae was caught off guard, as if someone grabbed the knob in his brain to adjust the firepower and turned it suddenly, making the low fever jump into a high fever.Lu You felt his brain was about to boil, he was dizzy, he tried several times but failed to get up, the sound of closing the door and the slow and low footsteps of a tall man could already be heard in his ears.

Is this the end again?

Lu You gritted his teeth, and without knowing where the strength came from, he reached out and touched the foot of another chair, lifted it up with all his strength, and overturned it in the direction of the sound of footsteps.The person who came did not say a word, and easily dodged back, and stepped over the obstacle with a lift of his long legs.Lu You felt like a hammer was hammering inside his head. He rolled up and rolled under the table with difficulty, trying to crawl to the exit at the other end.

Now that this person came in, he was even closer to the gate... If he had time to rush over...

One hand grabbed Lu You's arm, followed by his calf.He was dragged out from under the table in an awkward position like a struggling animal refusing to be slaughtered.Lu You died twice, but this was the first time he experienced the fear before death.He completely forgot the mission, and the system that had been playing dead after reporting the time once. His throat seemed to be hoarse, and he couldn't make a sound. He kicked and twisted desperately, and his fingers grabbed him Scratching on his arm, so hard that the short-cut nails left blood on the skin.The man didn't seem to feel any pain at all, and ignored his struggles. He carried him and pressed him on his back to the edge of the table. With the screeching sound of the utility knife blade being pushed out quickly, the cold metal pressed against the tender neck. skin.

This ray of coolness rushed into Lu You's mind, and he immediately stopped struggling as if he was frozen.At the same time, he suddenly regained his composure, calmer than he had ever been after hearing the knock on the door.

A thread of red flickered in Lu You's unclear vision, and he instinctively raised his hand and grabbed it.The person who pressed him stopped, seemed to frown, and then the blade across Lu You's neck pressed down even more heavily. "Let go." He finally spoke, and said the first sentence after entering the door.

The voice was low and hoarse, and it sounded... a bit familiar.

"I know... why you came here..." Lu You said slowly, he felt a little bit of warm liquid flow down the line pressed by the blade along with the stinging pain, he told himself not to go Thinking, "I have a way...to make the person you like choose you instead..."

The man didn't answer right away, but his suppression of Lu You was relaxed for a moment.He straightened up a little, and the previously blocked light came, and Lu You finally saw his face clearly.

The stimulation of the light, the despair and tension when he was dying, and the unbelievable shock that suddenly emerged at this moment made Lu You's pupils shrink into two small black spots.
