weird fairy tale town

Chen Xuyuan is drowsy in his "computer room". Thanks to Boss Bai, several people in this quarter have collected a lot of goodwill points, so they can happily "sit and eat" at home for a while without entering the checkpoint Work here to earn food for yourself.

However, just as Chen Xuyuan was having a bubbling dream, the smoothly running equipment in front of him suddenly detected huge network fluctuations, and then a sharp alarm sounded throughout the computer room, almost scaring the drowsy Chen Xuyuan to the ground. to the ground.

This is the biggest network fluctuation they have encountered since they established monitoring of the Fairy Tale Town network.

Chen Xuyuan frowned and went through the data quickly. He always felt that the data looked like a network attack, but after this huge wave of shocks passed, the entire network status returned to calm, with no trace at all...

Chen Xuyuan, who had no clue, tried to knock on Qi Lin's door to report the situation.

Although he knew that Bai Zhe was still lying on Qi Lin's bed and hadn't woken up, and Qi Lin was worried about this matter recently, but such a strange situation must be reported.

However, after knocking on the door for a long time, Chen Xuyuan didn't hear the voice in the room, instead he knocked out Su Shiyi who was next door.

"What's the situation?" Su Shiyi asked, "Boss ignores you, so you just open the door and come in. We don't lock the door anyway."

Chen Xuyuan thought about it too, so he simply pushed the door open and went in, and then stood there blankly.

"What's the matter?" Su Shiyi yawned from behind, took two steps forward and patted Chen Xuyuan's back, then poked her head forward, and then just froze in place like Chen Xuyuan.

The room was empty, not only Qi Lin was not there, even Bai Zhe disappeared.

On the bed, there were obviously traces of someone lying there.

But...where did these two suddenly disappear?It's impossible to suddenly disappear without even saying hello?

Su Shiyi turned to Chen Xuyuan suspiciously: "What's going on, why did you come here to find the boss?"

Chen Xuyuan scratched the back of his head and said, "Just now I monitored the largest data fluctuation in the history of Fairy Tale Town, but it was only for a moment... It was like an instant directional blast, and then all the data was restored in an instant. Although I don't know what this means, I always feel that it is better to report to the boss first, but I didn't expect..."

Su Shi pondered for a moment, then frowned and said, "Generally speaking, what kind of situation would produce such data fluctuations?"

"Large network attack." Chen Xuyuan replied immediately, "But the speed of recovery is a bit too much, it doesn't feel like it can be done by manpower..."

"What if... it wasn't done by humans?" Su Shiyi's eyes fell on the empty bed, she pursed her lips, and put forward a bold hypothesis: "If you say it, Fairy Tale Town has always known that we are monitoring... just now Just using its own abilities to do something that scares you?"

Chen Xuyuan's face turned serious, "No way... If that's the case, wouldn't there be no secrets about our every move in Fairy Tale Town?"

"Not sure yet." Su Shiyi rubbed her chin, "Come on, let's go to the computer room together to have a look, the boss will never disappear suddenly without saying a word, you should track their ID first and see if you can find them Where."

Chen Xuyuan nodded, and immediately returned to the computer room with Su Shiyi.

Fortunately, although the network fluctuation just now was very huge, it can be called the level of a large-scale network earthquake, but it did not cause any damage to their monitoring system.

Chen Xuyuan skillfully opened several small software developed by himself. First, he tentatively entered his and Su Shiyi's ID numbers, and successfully tracked the location of the two of them—it was right in Fairy Tale Cabin No. 70.

Then he cautiously entered the ID numbers of Qi Lin and Bai Zhe, and began to track their locations.

Before Chen Xuyuan tried to trace the numbers of the people who left Fairy Tale Town, the final results were all [error]. Therefore, when he pressed the search button, Chen Xuyuan only felt his forehead sweat slightly.

Fortunately, the calculation results gave normal feedback, which made Chen Xuyuan heave a sigh of relief.

He looked at the string of tracking results, called up an input box again, skillfully typed a large string of characters that Su Shiyi couldn't understand, and after jumping and clicking a few times, a simple map appeared on the screen.

It is called a map, but it is actually several small squares randomly arranged on a plane, and after Chen Xuyuan selected one of the areas to zoom in, some small dots appeared in the small squares, each with a with a number.

"Here." Chen Xuyuan reached out and tapped the small square on the screen, "In a level, but..."

Hearing that the two were in the checkpoint, Su Shiyi breathed a sigh of relief.

Although I still don't know how the two disappeared from the room to the checkpoint inexplicably, and Bai Zhe is still in a coma, but as long as their location is tracked, everything will be fine.

"But what?" Su Shiyi asked.

"But this dungeon is a bit strange." Chen Xuyuan touched the screen twice again, and he moved the screen to let Su Shiyi look at another small square not far away, "Look here, this is our usual Tracing the copy we saw, this small square shows that there is an entrance and an exit." Chen Xuyuan's fingers slid across the screen following his own explanation, and finally returned to the area where Qi Lin and Bai Zhe were. On the small square, the tone was very dignified, "But, look at this small square..."

Su Shiyi's gaze was firmly fixed on the small square with the identity numbers of Qi Lin and Bai Zhe inside, her lips trembled slightly, and she said in a hoarse voice: "This small square...why is there no entrance?...in the square , and why are there only two of them?!"

Su Shiyi was right.

Generally, two situations will be displayed in the grid, one is that there is only one small dot - that means that the player in this level is in a single-player instance.

In another case, there will be at least five small dots in the grid—that is, it means that a multiplayer challenge is going on in this level.

The two open openings on the grid represent the entrance and exit of the grid. From Chen Xuyuan's tracking diagram, the time when the player enters the level and the time when they leave the level can be tracked.

However, in the small square where Bai Zhe and Qi Lin are located, there are no entrances and exits, and there are no other players.

It doesn't look like a level... more like a... cage!

Bad guesses flashed through their hearts at the same time, and they looked at each other nervously at a loss.

And at this moment, Chen Xuyuan's screen suddenly changed again.

Small translucent dots lit up one by one in the grid with no entrance and exit, and the numbers on the head were also displayed one by one.

However, those numbers made the two of them even more inconceivable.

No. 1, No. 3, No. 28, No. 79...

Among the one hundred small dots that light up slowly one by one, all of them are the top one hundred players who have already bought the key and left Fairy Tale Town!

Su Shiyi suddenly felt a chill...

"Those guys..." she murmured, "Haven't those guys already left Fairy Tale Town?! Why did they appear?!"

"Don't panic." Chen Xuyuan comforted Su Shiyi in a hurry. Although he was also in a panic now, he had to ensure that the two of them could continue to perform the task when the boss was away.

"Look carefully at these other points." Chen Xuyuan put one hand on Su Shiyi's shoulder, and the other hand still fell on the screen forcefully, "Look, these points are translucent, and they should not represent the player himself. , but the data generated by the Fairy Tale Town system simulation, that is, the virtual player."

Su Shiyi was in a mess just now, and now she was reminded by Chen Xuyuan before she calmed down and looked at it. This time, she also discovered what Chen Xuyuan said, "Virtual generation? Ghost player? It's terrible. Why did this happen suddenly? This kind of thing...can you try to hack in? This is not normal, it is impossible for a checkpoint to have no entrance and exit, if not, how did the two of them enter?"

When cooperating inside and outside the level, Chen Xuyuan also tried to invade the level. The success rate is not high, but sometimes he can smoothly pass some messages to the level, such as prompting to point out the location of the exit, and the response is in the level. It will materialize into important props or clues.

At the moment, there is not much to do, and the two of them can barely try.

Chen Xuyuan dragged the chair and sat down, licked his dry lips and began typing on the keyboard quickly.

Row after row of instructions were input, and finally formed an order, quietly lurking towards that weird square.

However, just when Chen Xuyuan's command was about to touch the small square, a black dot suddenly appeared in the square. No number was displayed next to it, but it suddenly flashed, as if it was scattered outwards. Like a shock wave, Chen Xuyuan's order was easily smashed to pieces.

Then, the black dot flickered, as if mocking Chen Xuyuan's uncontrollable strength.

Chen Xuyuan, who had never encountered such a situation before, was stunned, "This..."

"What's wrong?!" Su Shiyi asked anxiously.

"It used a wave of attacks to eat my attacks... I have been monitoring Fairy Tale Town for so long, and I have never found such a situation. What is going on here?"

Seeing that Chen Xuyuan was starting to feel a little anxious, but fortunately Su Shiyi, who was about to lose her mind just now, had completely calmed down, "Don't worry, let's see the situation." She took a deep breath and said, "The boss said before that he always I feel that I should get Boss Bai in somewhere, maybe there is something really... After all, since Boss Bai entered Fairy Tale Town, our customs clearance speed has been much faster, and you should have noticed the few things that happened recently It’s here, it’s completely different from the customs clearance we used to do.”

Su Shiyi pondered for a moment, "Maybe there is something we don't know yet, but it is right to believe the two bosses... It just blocked your attack, which means it is stronger than us here, but it But they didn’t abolish the monitoring directly, and didn’t let us see their situation, so... as long as they don’t interfere, can you think of a way to further monitor the situation in more detail?” Su Shiyi asked, “If something really happens, we will It’s better to be fully prepared.”

Chen Xuyuan nodded, "You're right, I'm going to figure out a way now to see if I can monitor the situation in the checkpoint, there must be some help, we can't let the boss take us to lie down and win every time!"

"En!" Su Shiyi nodded, "You start first. I will go to the medical room to prepare a full set of first aid equipment and facilities. After I am done, I will bring some food and refreshing things. We will take turns to guard the guard. We must find ways to get support for the boss as much as we can."

……

At this moment, Bai Zhe, who was already in the checkpoint, slowly opened his eyes, covered his painful and swollen forehead, "Hiss..."

"Are you awake?" Qi Lin's voice immediately rang out when he sensed movement from his side.

"Me?" Bai Zhe gave a wry smile, "This fainting is too frequent, it makes me look like I have some strange persona of a sickly beauty..."

However, before a joke was played, Bai Zhe looked at the surrounding environment and was immediately dumbfounded.

where is this place?
