Being an Extra Actor in an Escape Game

Ten taskers stepped into their respective doors.

Xu Beijin saw this scene.

He is in a very special state right now.He didn't start the live broadcast, because he knew that there would be a lot of situations where the live broadcast would be cut off during this live broadcast, so he simply didn't start the live broadcast.

But he can still see the actions of other taskers.

On the one hand, this may be because he is the master of this nightmare, and on the other hand, it is also because of the particularity of this nightmare.

Before these taskers entered his nightmare, including when Lin Po asked him about his nightmare, Xu Beijin's attitude was very consistent.

He couldn't tell these taskers what his nightmare was like.

Moreover, even if he could say it, it would be difficult for the taskers to understand what his nightmare was like.

His nightmares were dreams about nightmares, collections of nightmares.

But it's not the "dream within a dream" proposed by Ringo, and it's not like the previous nightmare where the sky fire came into the world, where other nightmare scenes may appear.His nightmares were different from either of these situations.

His nightmares, those other nightmares, were like one giant collection.

In his nightmare, there are all the missionaries and narrow building residents who have fallen into it, and there are all the nightmares of eternal collapse.

They are like tiny cells one after another, eventually forming this huge, chaotic and crazy nightmare world.

Doors are the only means of passage in this nightmare world.

Taskers can go to those "cells" when they walk through a door.And if you find another special door in those "cells", you can go to other "cells".

Such a door is like a portal for every narrow building resident.

Those portals lead to their nightmares, and in Xu Beijin's nightmare, these portals also lead to nightmares, but they are just "cellular nightmares".

cell.He likes the title.Xu Bei thought about it.

In this nightmare, there are hundreds of millions of "cells".

Previously, Ringo once said that if he wanted to solve his nightmares, would it be enough to solve all the nightmares in his nightmares?

And if Lingo saw the number of these cells, then with Lingo's simple and rough brain circuit, I'm afraid he would hesitate for a long time before saying that it is possible to solve all of them...?

At least have a chance?

Yet these cellular nightmares cannot be solved.They, and the humans among them, are in a state of complete collapse.

If they can be resolved, then NE will not place them in the "garbage dump".

They are, in fact, useless garbage.Even harmful garbage that cannot be recycled.

These rubbish are repeating their last life situation endlessly.The cellular nightmare keeps repeating, and the people in it keep repeating their past behaviors.

They are in the tiny cells, they are born and died, they live and die, never stop.

So Xu Beijin's nightmare will not restart.Taskers will only get lost in it, unable to find a way out.

If they die in a cellular nightmare, well...they'll just be a part of it.

It's dangerous, chaotic, full of madmen and unreasonable bizarre events.This is the dump of the narrow building.

The game "Escape from Heaven" has been started for many, many years.In the beginning, all nightmares were in the narrow building.

Later, as batches of human beings gradually sank, batches of nightmares gradually and completely collapsed, and many extremely dangerous nightmares came into the gray mist.

In other words, the current taskers in the narrow building, especially the higher-level taskers, many of the nightmares they experience are actually nightmares after so many years of screening.

The truly dangerous and extremely cruel nightmare has actually arrived in the gray mist outside the narrow building.

However, now, in order to leave the narrow building, these ten taskers have to come to Xu Beijin's nightmare, and challenge these nightmares that have "killed" countless taskers.

They can't solve these nightmares, they just have to... delay.

If they're lucky, or if NE is really on their side.Then, the situation may turn around in a short time.

It all depends on the attitude of NE.

After all, Xu Beijin can't control which door these taskers enter and which nightmare they go to.

But now, these cells are clearly displayed in front of Xu Beijin.

He was also in the gray mist, which was a corner of his nightmare.If the taskers didn't enter those doors, maybe they could still find Xu Beijin in the gray fog.

He still wears his original clothes, has his original sobriety and sanity.Everyone who enters his nightmare will gradually lead to collapse and chaos, but Xu Beijin seems to be completely unaffected.

But he knew that when he entered this nightmare, his brain and body seemed to have collapsed and were gradually dying.

He doesn't have much time.

Xu Beijin's eyes were dark, it was clear that the situation was urgent, but he was not in a hurry.To put it bluntly, there is no use in worrying.He must wait for an opportunity.

His eyes looked at the ten cells displayed in front of him.

It is like ten grains of dust drifting out of the gray mist, and then enlarged to form ten special three-dimensional images.

He could see the little figures moving through the cells, struggling, dying, resurrecting, and repeating the whole thing.

He was absent-minded for a moment, and countless complicated thoughts arose in his heart.

When the mission workers and performers in the narrow building howled and lamented their miserable lives in the narrow building, did they ever think that in the gray fog outside the narrow building, Are there creatures more miserable than them?

That can't even be called life.

They just exist here.And whether they are alive, whether they are awake, whether they have the hope of escaping, the answers to these questions are not in their own hands.

And Xu Beijin has been powerless for many years.

He always avoided talking about his nightmares.He knew his nightmare—or rather, there was something in the gray mist outside the narrow building.

For many years, every morning, he stood outside the window, quietly watching the billowing gray fog.

The pain gnawed at his heart, and there was still nothing he could do.

Theoretically speaking, once he entered this nightmare, he would immediately dissipate and die.

This kind of death means complete disappearance, not these humans trapped in the gray mist.

Therefore, he didn't intend to enter this nightmare until he realized the change of NE's attitude and position.

And when he really entered the nightmare, he found that he was indeed stepping into death, but this process was delayed a lot, giving him a chance to save himself.And it is inevitable that only NE intervenes to cause such a situation to happen.

So, NE has indeed changed.

but why?

NE is just artificial intelligence, how could it change?

This is not common sense.

So, what happened, what prompted the shift in NE.

If Xu Beijin wanted to find out about this matter, he had to contact NE.

And the only way for him to contact NE is...

Take advantage of his nightmares.

His eyes were fixed on those missionaries.

He said silently in his heart, hurry up, hurry up.Hurry up to discover the secret of this nightmare, hurry up to go to other cellular nightmares, hurry up to regain your sanity, hurry up... find the cellular nightmare he needs.

While paying attention to these taskers, Xu Beijin was also looking for the "rubble" he needed in the endless fog and dust.But this is really a long process.

It is also too difficult.

He searched for 10 minutes, only to feel that his eyes were going to go blind.

Seeing the madness of the former taskers and actors in those cells made Xu Beijin even more bored.

He could only hold back this terrible emotion and continue to look for what he needed.At the same time, I turned my head from time to time to pay attention to the situation of the taskers.

What Xu Beijin paid the most attention to, of course, was Ringo.

This is not because of his relationship with Lingo—at least not only—but because of Lingo's extraordinary intuition, Xu Beijin is quite optimistic about his prospect of finding the nightmare of cells.

The nightmare of the cell that Ringo entered also made Xu Beijin feel quite strange.

That was the first nightmare of eternal collapse.In other words, the owner of this nightmare is the first player in the entire narrow building to completely collapse and get lost in the identity he played.

The reason why Xu Beijin knew this was because when he was flipping through the "update log", he discovered the record of NE's report on this matter.

However, the subject of the NE report did not make any comments or measures on this matter.

What's more, they made NE not have to report such cases in the future.Perhaps, they don't care about the collapse of humanity.

Today, the nightmare and the total breakdown of humanity have stabilized.

However, this bloated and huge garbage dump, which symbolizes a lot of garbage data, has also become a nightmare for NE-in the beginning, the fog was just fog;

And later, the gray fog also became the name of a scene.

Therefore, Xu Bei's first nightmare of collapse is still fresh in his memory.

This nightmare happened to a middle-aged person - a man, or a woman.

Not good.They are a loving couple who have been married for more than 20 years. After becoming the source of inspiration for the nightmare of the narrow building, the owner of the nightmare has two sides, just like Ke Xu and Xie Ji.

When madness spread in human society, their respective parents and children went crazy, taking the couple as three meals a day, and feeding the bones to the cats and dogs in the community.

The poor cosplayer kept repeating such a horrible experience in his dream, and he collapsed completely in a short time.

However, the collapse does not mean the cessation of peace and nightmares, it just means that he has completely become that couple, repeating the fate of being eaten.

In his nightmare, the scene is of course not only their family, but also the couple's colleagues, neighbors, and friends.

The whole nightmare is more like a strange case investigation process.

The neighbor called the police and said that a couple living next door had disappeared, and there was always a smell of meat or a foul smell from the next door these days.

After investigating the family, the police found that their water and electricity have been used very frequently recently, far exceeding the usual usage.

In addition, the mother-in-law of the hostess complained that the kitchen drain was blocked;

The child is complaining that there is no room for the ice cream he wants to eat in the refrigerator;

The stray cats and dogs in the community are even more vicious.

The police went to the company of the missing couple to investigate and found that the couple worked in the same company, they were middle-aged and had a lot of troubles;

The elderly in the family are in poor health, the children have to go to cram schools, the neighbors have to move around, and the friends have to eat and drink. In short, everything needs money.

They tried their best to hold on, but they were always frowning.

Until, they completely disappeared in this world.

For ordinary taskers, when they enter this nightmare, they will assume the identity of investigators.

During the initial period of entering this nightmare, the couple had not been killed;

And when they are completely devoured, the nightmare will restart.

If the missionaries want to solve this nightmare, the easiest way is to prevent the death of the couple;

To achieve the true ending, the couple's parents and children must realize that what they eat is not normal food, but their relatives.

This nightmare is not difficult, but it is a pity that the actor has gone crazy before secretly pushing the tasker to have a true ending.

In other words, he couldn't get rid of this fate at all.

Unless one day... he can regain his sanity, regain his sobriety, and leave the narrow building.

Maybe such a nightmare experience will cause him to have nightmares all day long and his spirit will collapse, but one day, he should be able to return to his usual appearance.

And everything, perhaps, depends on the actions of these ten taskers.

The moment Ringo entered the door, he only felt his eyes go dark, and then it brightened again, and he woke up.He looked around and found himself in a dark corridor.

He was a little impatient, thinking that he was going to find Xu Beijin.But his intuition seemed to have failed, and he never pointed out where Xu Beijin was at all.

He thought, so Xu Bei is not behind this door at all?

Where would he be then?

Ringo was a little confused.

From the looks of it, Ringo doesn't look like he's forgotten all about entering this nightmare.He seemed to be still awake, not as drowsy as other taskers.

But in fact, Lingo only remembered Xu Beijin.

He didn't even know why he entered this nightmare, why he appeared here, he just knew that he wanted to find Xu Beijin—that was the person he liked, so he had to find him.

But where is Xu Beijin?

Ringo thought for a moment, but couldn't figure it out.

But he knows one thing, since Xu Bei is not here at all, then he has to leave here.

How to leave?

Ringo hesitated for a moment, then slowly turned his gaze to a house above the corridor.

There came some peculiar noises.

Lin Po listened attentively, and his extraordinary five senses made him quickly understand what the voice was.

It was the sound of chopping meat... chopping bones.One sound at a time, as if knocking on the cap of the human spirit.

If it was an ordinary tasker who heard such a voice in this dark corridor, he might have been so frightened that his legs were weak.

Human beings who have been poisoned by the Internet information age can easily draw conclusions and understand what happened.

But Ringo didn't have this problem.

Firstly, he has no memory about the earth, and secondly, he will not feel fear because of this little bit of weird atmosphere.

He never seemed to feel fear.

He just thought, if there is a sound there, that means that the point of this scene is there?

So he stepped upstairs.

Xu Beijin couldn't bear to look directly at what happened next.

Ringo knocked on the door first, but no one opened the door, so he used force to tear down the door and walked into the room.

He ignored the two old men whose faces and hands were covered with blood, and the child who was holding a finger bone and licking the blood. After turning around, his intuition led him to the front of the refrigerator.

Then he opened the refrigerator door.

A diffuse gray mist spewed out from the refrigerator door, covering Lingo's sight almost instantly.

The strong smell of blood at the end of the nose became faintly visible, and several people in the house also became illusory phantoms.

Then, a door that was mostly hidden in the gray mist appeared in front of Lingo.

He knew that this was the way to leave this scene and go to the next scene.These doors are the way to get through Xu Beijin's nightmare.

Ringo walked in without hesitation.

He almost cheated out of this cellular nightmare.

However, other taskers did not have such an easy time.

Almost unanimously, they treated the original world behind the door as a real nightmare to solve.

They forgot that they were in Xu Beijin's nightmare, and they also forgot their mission to enter this nightmare.

They haven't completely sunk into this nightmare, but they may not be so lucid either.

They vainly throw themselves into nightmares of eternal collapse, repetition and endless reincarnation, hoping to resolve them.

Among the nine taskers, Mu Jiashi was the first to realize that something was wrong.

Maki Kashi in a bank scene.

The bank staff had some quarrels because of the bad attitude of an old man who came to deposit money; not only with the old man, but also with each other.

However, the dispute continued to escalate and eventually resulted in a murder.

When everyone in the bank dies, the scene has a reboot.

Mu Jiashi was in a daze, at the very beginning, he was even involved in this bloody case.

The pain of death made him slightly sober, and he wanted to stop the killing.

However, he always fails.Or, it was because he prevented a bank employee from reprimanding the old man, but failed to prevent another person from reaching for the large sum of cash;

Or, it was because he stopped the bank staff, but failed to stop the old man's arrogant attitude.

In the end, almost helplessly, he closed and locked the door of the bank before the old man entered the bank.

It was at this moment that he suddenly felt that something was not quite right.

locked gate;

a pool of blood in a bank;

The midsummer street outside the transparent glass door; the crossroads, the library across the road;

The bustling city center is deserted, and occasionally a few lunatic-like figures flash across the street.

All these scenes made him startled for a long time.He felt that these scenes were very familiar.

Some time ago, he didn't pay attention to the situation outside the bank at all, because the lunatics in the bank made him burnt out.

But because of this inadvertent glance, he found the scene outside the door so familiar——

However, he couldn't remember where he had encountered such a scene.

His brain is like a paste, everything is vague and indistinct.

He didn't know what he was doing here, he was dazedly preventing the murder in the bank and preventing his own death.

He even took the initiative to block the old man who caused the dispute outside the door.

But at this moment, he suddenly thought, why should he stay in the bank?He can leave here too?

This is an almost unsolvable problem.The old man could have stopped it, but he was still with these crazy bank workers, and sooner or later the next thing would ignite their rage and bloodlust.

The murder at the bank cannot be stopped, and he should give up his futile struggle and get out of here.

Mu Jiashi recited this sentence, a strange driving force and a special hesitation made him think back and forth between the two choices of leaving and not leaving.

He didn't feel like he was such an indecisive person, but he was bound by something.

his brain.The brain he was once proud of.

No.Why would he be so proud of his brain?What has he been through?

Mu Jiashi was thinking in vain in the chaos.

His gut told him he should get out of here.Because he has been around all over the bank, there is nothing worth noting, just a few lunatics.But outside, there is such a big scene outside.

He should have seen it.Gathering information comes first.

But what is holding him back?

some hint?Some kind of incredible, condescending exhortation?He felt some strange, unearthly emotion creeping through him.

He blinked in bewilderment, staring at the locked bank door for a moment.Then, he opened the door without hesitation.

At that moment, he seemed to hear those crazy bank staff behind him roaring unwillingly and resentfully——

During these short cycles, Mu Jiashi had already been killed several times by them.

These bank staff seemed to be venting their anger on this outsider.

Perhaps it was not just intuition that drove Mu Jiashi to leave here.The fear and pain of death have exceeded his own ability to bear.Therefore, he had to leave, this is the instinct of survival.

When he opened the bank door and took a step outside, all the sounds behind him, the sun shining on the asphalt, and some disgusting smell of hot and fishy sweetness in the air...

All the things that made him uncomfortable dissipated in the thick and quiet gray fog.

He saw a new door, displayed before him.

Mu Jiashi stepped in without hesitation.

Then he came to a strange, new scene.

This is a slightly old house. The bare and dirty concrete walls make people feel a little gloomy, as if there are countless dust hidden in every corner.

Looking out of the window here, he saw the green mountains and the yellow dirt roads on the mountains.

These dirt roads connect a village that sits at the foot of the mountain.

Mu Jiashi's ears were very quiet, except for the sound of some insects chirping.

But it was clearly in the evening, and under normal circumstances, such a small village in the mountains would light up the cooking smoke at this moment, and people rushed home from the farmland to eat.

They will lead the mooing old scalper and greet each other with the neighbors.Children will laugh and say goodbye to their companions.

But not here.There is no sound here, only a strange tranquility.

At this moment, it seemed that the tranquility had also become some kind of heavy and grand sound, pouring desperately into his brain.

Mu Jiashi was standing in the bedroom on the second floor of the house.He quietly looked at the village outside, feeling a strong sense of foreboding in his heart.

After a while, he took a deep breath and went from the second floor to the first floor.I don't know if it was the encounter in the bank just now that made him regain some sobriety.

He has realized that if he wants to leave here, he has to find a special door in this scene.

Only by finding that door can he escape from this mortal situation.

Mu Jiashi couldn't help thinking, is this scene as dangerous as that bank?

If it was up to him to decide, then he wished, the two scenarios were very different.At least, he hoped that in this scene, he would not have to die again.

Death is really an uncomfortable thing.

In the courtyard on the first floor of this farmhouse, he met a somewhat familiar woman—when she was nervous, she would bite her lips tightly.

Mu Jiashi found this feature inexplicably almost at a glance.

He couldn't help thinking to himself, why did he notice this instinctively?Is this woman really his acquaintance?

This woman who looks a bit nervous, overwrought and anxious, her lips are constantly moving as if she is mumbling something...

Is it someone he knows?
