weird fairy tale town

That night, both of them felt very heavy, especially Qi Lin, who had just heard all the ins and outs and was burning hot in his heart. Waking up.

That's right, although it's not difficult for people like them to clear the customs, even if he can never leave Fairy Tale Town, as long as there is Bai Zhe in Fairy Tale Town, he can do it willingly.

But in this world, people can't just think about themselves.

Especially as soldiers, they have their own obligations and responsibilities. It is absolutely impossible for them to hide from the world and ignore everything.

Otherwise, at the last moment, Bai Zhe would not be willing to choose to accept this task that he did not know how likely it would be to succeed.

Otherwise, Bai Zhe, who started again this time, would not finally decide to try to rewrite the fate of mankind, even if he had to give up his own life that he could have lived peacefully...

That night, the village was quiet from beginning to end. A few werewolves entered, and finally left quietly. It is unknown which villager they took away.

But both Bai Zhe and Qi Lin knew that the situation before them was also a situation that they had to break...

The night passed, and the sun rose again in the morning.

Early in the morning, someone struck the gong again, calling everyone to the square in the village.

Qi Lin looked around, then lowered his head and said to Bai Zhe, "It's true that there is one person missing."

Bai Zhe nodded.

After training, their short-term memory is excellent. Although it may be forgotten after a long time, but this time just passed a day, both Qi Lin and Bai Zhe can still recognize the faces of these villagers very clearly.

"At the beginning, you said that these villagers are a bit strange." Bai Zhe stood at the outermost edge and asked Qi Lin in a low voice, "What's so strange?"

"I always feel that there are some familiar faces, I should have seen them before." Qi Lin replied, "Like I stopped Dao Scar yesterday to ask who he is, I always feel that there are a few of them... seem to be early players. "

Bai Zhe was taken aback, "Are you sure?"

"Not very sure." Qi Lin shook his head, "After all, it's been too long."

Bai Zhe touched his chin. According to Qi Lin... even though it has been a long time, since he said he looks familiar, it must not be a sense of familiarity created out of thin air.

Could it be that not only werewolves are players, but villagers are also players?

But if these are players who have already taken the key and "leaved" Fairy Tale Town... Wouldn't it be too strange to appear here?

Bai Zhe was still thinking, but the village head standing in the crowd over there had already started to speak.

"Yesterday, we lost another friend of ours..." The village chief's tone was a little sad, but more, it seemed that he hated the villagers for not being able to live up to the iron, "I have already discussed the terms with the werewolves. It’s so low! Everyone is repairing houses, why can’t they unite to resist werewolves?” the village chief asked loudly.

However, upon hearing his words, the villagers were still silent, only a villager standing very close to Bai Zhe and the others smiled.

This reaction was a bit unusual, like a real person, Bai Zhe suddenly became interested, took two steps forward, went to the person and asked, "Why are you laughing? Isn't the village chief doing it for everyone's good?" ?”

The man seemed very surprised that Bai Zhe would come to ask him questions, he stared blankly at Bai Zhe for a long time before saying, "It won't be useful anyway... Hehe... You are new to the village, right? It's hard to survive, you guys work hard, you'll know after a while."

Bai Zhe turned his head and looked at Qi Lin, feeling a strange feeling in his heart.

The werewolf thought they were new villagers, and the villagers also thought they were new villagers... It stands to reason that if they came to the village and became new villagers by default, at least someone should explain the situation to them.

And it's true that they lived in the worst room last night, but they didn't really "live" in the room.

If the rules would not take effect just by not staying in the house, wouldn't the villagers be able to avoid the risk of being eaten by wolves as long as they all come out?

The setting of this rule is too strange...

Or?

Bai Zhe's heart suddenly moved.

Or, are he and Qi Lin actually not within the jurisdiction of this set of rules?

The villagers looked sleepy and were about to leave, but Bai Zhe stepped forward to stop him, "I'm sorry, brother, I want to ask you a few questions."

The man waved his hand impatiently, "If you have any questions, go to the village chief. Anyway, he is the only one who will not die. Those old things haven't given up hope of living. I'm going to strengthen my house."

The man's answer convinced Bai Zhe and Qi Lin that there was probably something wrong with the village chief.

Especially looking back and thinking about what they heard when they first entered the village—the village chief went to the werewolf to discuss the new rules, and he came back intact, and it was fine, but he actually made the werewolf agree to a new rule. the rule of.

If the village head really exists as a force on the side of the villagers, isn't it too strange that he can still formulate rules on the side of the werewolves in the end?

But now they are not in a hurry to find the village chief.

"We just want to inquire about some situations with you. Don't worry, we'll help you strengthen the house and talk while you work." Bai Zhe immediately offered a very tempting exchange.

Sure enough, the man hesitated for a moment and then nodded, "Yes, but I guess I can't tell you much about the situation."

At first, when he heard the man say this, Bai Zhe thought it was because he was more wary and unwilling to provide too much information.

However, after helping the man with his work, he found out that he was really thinking too much... The man really couldn't provide much information.

He didn't even know his name or how he got here.

Bai Zhe's heart sank, and when he turned around, he saw Qi Lin's equally serious face.

This situation is the same as that of the werewolf leader Scar last night—they don't know who they are.

Since I don't even know who I am or why I appear here, what is the purpose of the villagers' daily life?

Bai Zhe raised his own question again.

The man shrugged, "I don't know, I was in the village when I woke up. The village chief said that we are all villagers, and the village is cursed, so we have to find a way to fight... Hehe, but I have been here for a while, and the fight is over." Confrontation, the village chief has always been good, and he can talk to the werewolves about the conditions every now and then, and change the selection rules for who will die next, but we can only accept it, back and forth, someone will die, but there will always be Newcomers like you come."

Bai Zhe understood, no wonder these people were not surprised that he and Qi Lin suddenly appeared in the village, and they didn't even come to ask how they got here.

A group of guys who don't even know who they are, let alone care about others.

They are even more likely to be used to such a mechanical life.

"So, have you all united to kill wolves?" Bai Zhe asked again.

"Yes." The man said casually while beating with a hammer, "Sometimes there will be some guys with more passionate personalities who ask everyone to unite and kill wolves together...but what's the use?" He hit the wolf with a hammer. On the wooden board, he sneered, "There are always five wolves. If you kill one, you will have one more. If you kill one, you will have one more. There will always be fifty villagers. If one dies, another one will come... Oh, I can’t wait until I think about it." After suffering, death is also a kind of relief, isn't it?"

Seeing the man's expressionless face and saying these words without emotion, Bai Zhe only felt a bone-chilling chill.

However, he has already keenly grasped the key point of the man's words, "You mean, there will always be five wolves, and there will always be fifty humans?"

"Yes." The man continued, "There should be new people coming at noon, and you won't be the newest villagers by then."

Bai Zhe was silent for a moment, and then asked again, "But the wolf always eats one person every time. Didn't you realize that we appear together as two people?"

The hammer in the man's hand stopped abruptly, and he raised his head after a long while, and looked at Bai Zhe and Qi Lin suspiciously, "Did you two appear together? Two people died at the same time before?!"

Finally, his eyes became more lively, and he swept over Bai Zhe and then Qi Lin with doubtful eyes.

But it seemed that he calmed down again soon, as if he had already found a reason for himself, "You can't expect to be so punctual every time, maybe you will come first before the next guy dies. Hehe."

"Don't you want to leave here?" Bai Zhe asked again.

"Leave? Where are you going?" The man looked at Bai Zhe with some sarcasm, "A group of people who don't know their names and where they come from, even if they want to leave, where can they go? What's more, we don't know who they are. know how to leave..."

"Didn't the village chief say that as long as 36 full moons have passed, the villagers who are still alive can wait until the curse is lifted, and then they can go outside? According to what you said, there will always be around [-] villagers. If someone dies, someone will add in, so as long as you survive to the end, you can leave here, right?" Qi Lin took a step forward and asked.

The man sneered twice, "Yes, you are right. But you seem to have misunderstood what the village chief meant."

Qi Lin frowned slightly, "What do you mean?"

It seemed that he was happy to spread the cruel truth, so that others would feel the same pain as himself. A sneer appeared on the man's lips, "After 36 full moons, it doesn't mean that the village has survived 36 full moons." moon."

Seeing Qi Lin's gradually dignified expression, the man said happily: "It's you, it's you, it's a person who has to survive 36 full moons, from beginning to end, before he can... Hehehehe."

"So, so far, how long is the person who has endured the longest, can you tell us?" Bai Zhe asked.

"As far as I know, twelve." The man sneered, "It's only one third. Do you think there is hope?"

Bai Zhe pursed his lips and wrote down the number twelve.

Twelve months, that is, a year ago, at the beginning of Fairy Tale Town, someone earned enough points to buy the key to leave...

Is all this a coincidence?

For the next time, Bai Zhe and Qi Lin didn't ask any more questions, but continued to help the man silently for a while.

At noon, they went back to their completely unrepaired dilapidated house for dinner, and then came out to check the situation.

Perhaps as the man said, because the villagers don't know who they are, let alone how or where they came to this village, what supports them to survive is only the most instinctive desire to survive, so the whole village There is a sense of lifelessness.

A strange environment, strange neighbors, even a strange self... and the constant death threat. If you stay in this kind of environment for a little longer, it's hard not to drive people crazy.

But after several inquiries, they still found the room that was attacked by wolves last night.

The aunt who showed them the way at the end might have a gentler personality, and she kindly warned them: "Don't think too much, this is a normal thing in the village, and that room will be allocated soon. , it is very likely that new people will live in today.”

Bai Zhe understood, thinking that this is what the man said just now, the number of villagers in the village will always be fifty.

But Bai Zhe and Qi Lin still chose to go into the room to take a look.

Miraculously, the house that was attacked by wolves last night didn't look too messy. There were no traces of fighting or blood in the house, and it looked as if nothing had happened.

Bai Zhe thought of those wolves who left last night - when they left, they were the same as when they came, they were familiar with the road, neither nervous nor excited, as if nothing had happened.

"How is it?" Bai Zhe asked Qi Lin after exploring the room.

"It's too obvious." Qi Lin shook his head, "It's time to see what's going on with the village chief."

"I agree." Bai Zhe whistled, "It's the first time I play a game like this... I have a very magical premonition."

"What premonition?" Qi Lin was somewhat interested by what he said.

Bai Zhe curled his lips, "This village head may be the person we are looking for, but before we entered this dungeon, the shard consciousness said that he knew that four shards had been merged together, and they are probably able to carry the entire fairy tale. The operation of the town also controls a large part of its resources. But there is another fragment, which is the core and the most powerful part of the entire chip... He said that guy is very powerful, let me be careful."

"Could it be that guy?" Qi Lin rubbed his chin and thought.

"I don't know... I always feel that it doesn't look like it." Bai Zhe clicked his tongue, "What kind of abnormal-AI-are these high-tech, and they have derived so many personalities and thoughts."

"Why doesn't it feel like it?" Qi Lin was more interested in what Bai Zhe said about the last fragment.

Bai Zhe shrugged, "This level, we found it very strange from the very beginning, the background description was incomplete, the task line and clearance conditions were not given to us, and there was not even a hint for us to find it by ourselves... Compared to all the levels, in this one we're like..."

"Like an outsider." Qi Lin added.

"Yes." Bai Zhe snapped his fingers, "That's it. Now it seems that the villagers have tasks for villagers, and werewolves also have tasks for werewolves. We don't know about werewolves yet, but the condition for villagers to pass customs is to stay here for 36 months. Undead. Let us assume that the mission of the werewolf is to kill all the villagers... But we are neither villagers nor werewolves... What role do you think we are?"

Qi Lin raised his eyebrows, pondered for a moment and said, "...off the field...helping guests?"

"I feel it." Bai Zhe patted Qi Lin on the shoulder, "Everything seems to have nothing to do with us, and the way we enter this level is completely different from other people. There is no task, no goal, like two unemployed Vagabonds...then if we weren't asked to break through the barrier, what were we asked to do?"

"Well, and this level is a bit strange..." Qi Lin nodded, "Everyone doesn't know who they are, it's a bit... such a strange level, it really doesn't seem like it was set up by a smart guy..."

However, before Qi Lin finished speaking, suddenly the jade pendants on his and Bai Zhe's chests flickered, and then two floating windows popped up, and a long string of garbled characters quickly popped up on the screen.

But even though he can't understand what the garbled characters are, Qi Lin is still familiar with this interface. This is the communicator they usually use in Fairy Tale Town. Everyone is equipped with one when they enter Fairy Tale Town, but the communicator is at the checkpoint. , isn't it unusable?

Before Qi Lin could finish his doubts, the string of garbled characters flickered twice, then transformed into Chinese characters——

"Boss, boss! See! This is Chen! I finally caught a loophole and hacked in. The level you are in is too weird. I can't track the specific situation and value. The code hole is not easy to open. I It was hacked in with the help of the special code of the communication tool you took last time! I can’t tell you too much, I sent the specific situation to Boss Bai, you guys study hard, come on!”

Qi Lin: "..."

The corner of Qi Lin's mouth twitched, so it's fine for this guy to just say that the situation is not right, why does he have to give himself such a long list of nonsense? !
