Escape from the Madhouse [Unlimited]

The breeze blew, and the shadows of the trees swayed.

Seeing Zhou Qian staying in the same position for a long time, Qi Liuxing played with his mobile phone for a while and asked him: "By the way, I accompanied you to meet someone at noon. Are you going to meet someone with me at night?"

"Who is it?" Zhou Qian asked.

"He's the one who joined me." Qi Liuxing said, "His name is Ke Yuxiao."

"Which Yu?" Zhou Qian asked.

Qi Liuxing: "The universe of the universe."

Zhou Qian pondered for a while, and said: "Yes. It's a good name. 'Heaven and earth are mysterious and yellow, and the universe is prehistoric.'"

"You memorized "Thousand Characters"?" Qi Liuxing asked, "So, can you see him? I want you to get to know him. Then if you think it's okay, the three of us will go to the next copy together. He really Very good. When you asked me for [Tick Tock Clock], I was being beaten by a monster, and I was almost unconscious at that moment!

"If he hadn't risked his life to save me, I would have died long ago!"

"Okay, see. But—" Seeing that the people in the room in the X area opposite were motionless, and there was no news from his own system panel, Zhou Qian jumped off the tree, stepped forward with narrowed eyes, and stared at Qi. Liu Xing's eyes, "Why do I feel that you betrayed all of a sudden. If a copy is missing, you will be subdued by others?"

Qi Liuxing: "..."

Zhou Qian asked again: "If I go to two different dungeons with him, who will you team up with in the end?"

Qi Liuxing was stunned for a long time, and then said: "You are so naive. Why don't you ask, you and Ke Yuxiao fell into the water at the same time, who will I save?"

"Oh. Then if we fall into the water at the same time, who do you save?" Zhou Qian continued to ask.

Qi Liuxing blinked several times, and finally uttered two words with a straight face: "Boring!"

This afternoon, Zhou Qian and Qi Liuxing failed to leave the hospital again.

In the name of visiting the sick, Ke Yuxiao came to their ward to visit with a bouquet of flowers.

He brought a lot of delicate snacks.

Those snacks are sold by a well-known local handmade dim sum shop. The daily shipments are very small and the price is quite high. Zhou Qian recognized the quality of the dim sum at a glance, so when he looked at Ke Yuxiao, he seemed Very pleasant.

Ke Yuxiao was about 25 years old, much older than Qi Liuxing.

Ke Yuxiao's Xiao is a long-range attack. According to Qi Liuxing, the two of them have a melee and a long-range attack, so they can match up perfectly.

In addition, Ke Yuxiao's skills are very special and can act as buffs.

For example, if Qi Liuxing's sword move can only scrape the skin, Ke Yuxiao's flute sound can increase his attack power, so that he will no longer scrape, but will cause high real damage to the enemy.

Ke Yuxiao has a gentle temperament, looks very talkative, and has a magical sense of home.

But he is definitely not weak, he should be very strong in his bones.It's probably similar to the feeling that he usually cooks and waters the flowers, but if he needs to go to the front line to fight, he can immediately go to battle with a gun.

While Zhou Qian was sitting on the chair eating snacks, Ke Yuxiao and Qi Liuxing were sitting on the bench chatting.

Zhou Qian found that Qi Liuxing, who always pretended to be a cold sword god in front of him, was a bit talkative in front of Ke Yuxiao.In contrast, Ke Yuxiao is just like his elder brother, he is very good at listening.

Zhou Qian listened to the conversation between the two intentionally or unintentionally, and asked after catching something: "Ke Yuxiao, so you are a very old player? Do you have any mental problems?"

"Well. I just got out of the hospital not long ago. I was a little depressed because of family and work matters." Ke Yuxiao said.

"How long have you been playing games?" Zhou Qian asked.

Ke Yuxiao said: "Two months. But I didn't go to many dungeons. The achievements I got are also average. I will choose some dungeons that can improve the skill value in a targeted and focused way. But what you play has hidden achievements Yes, I've never been there."

"Oh. Then you can actually come with me next time. I opened another dungeon with hidden achievements. As long as you team up with me, you can go. By the way, you just said—" Zhou Qian looked at him, "You said A god-level player? What's going on?"

"There are two types of players in this game, god-level players and ordinary players. The training methods between the two are completely different." Ke Yuxiao said, "Our ordinary players will probably become shepherds in the end."

"I know this. But you said that a god-level player...can be an NPC? What's going on?" Zhou Qian asked.

"Ordinary players below S-level play very ordinary dungeons, and the difficulty is around level [-] or below. God-level players cannot be NPCs in all dungeons. Load NPC."

Ke Yuxiao explained: "In addition, after loading NPCs, they can't violate the human design and not reduce the difficulty of the dungeon. In many cases, they will increase the difficulty of the game instead. Because they have to choose the trainer."

After a short pause, he continued: "However, I heard that very few god-level players do this. First of all, it will delay their own time to enter the dungeon and upgrade; secondly, many NPCs are also quite miserable, why bother? That crime? The game dungeon, the system has been designed, so just let the system screen the players."

Zhou Qian's eyes lit up. "So... if a god-level player becomes an NPC, we can't contact him in the system. That is to say, he will be [offline]?"

Ke Yuxiao said: "Maybe. But I haven't seen it. I've heard about the relevant information."

【137】Every time he "goes online", it is when Jiang Yu is awake.

[137] stated that he could not say anything due to the rules.

So... the so-called [offline] is actually their spirit loaded into the NPC?

anything else……

When the dragon appeared, Jiang Yuqing "fainted". In He Xiaowei's words, he seemed to be dead.

In a sense, can it be understood that Jiang Yuqing's spirit has left his body?Is it almost the same as the soul going out of the body?

Also, why did the dragon appear?

Or to change the question, why did there appear a giant monster made up of the corpses of the S Army that obviously did not meet the difficulty and design logic of the dungeon?

After leaving "The Bucket List", Zhou Qian of course contacted He Xiaowei and asked about the details of his passing out.

According to what he said, Situ Qing rushed towards the giant monster uncharacteristically at that time, and the giant monster became even more angry because of this...

So at this moment, Qi Liuxing continued to chat with Ke Yuxiao.

Zhou Qian went to the balcony and contacted Situ Qing. "What do you know about that troll?"

"I'm just guessing." Situ Qing replied, "I heard from my younger brother Mu Sheng that he seems to be able to change the difficulty of dungeons. He originally said..."

With a self-deprecating smile, Situ Qing said: "He said, I'm going to go to the dungeon with confidence. If I encounter a place that I can't pass, he will use such rare props to help me directly change the setting to reduce the difficulty. Now it seems that his mouth There really isn't a single truth in it."

"Then where is your brother now?" Zhou Qian asked, "Is it convenient to say?"

"I don't know. Leave the game. I went back to the rental house and found him missing." Situ Qing said, "Maybe... Maybe seeing everything in the game, he thought I betrayed him. He thought I took refuge in you .”

What Zhou Qian caught: "Rental house? You are not hospitalized? Are you not mentally ill?"

"No. Wait a minute..." Situ Qing shook her head, "Maybe I have. Otherwise, why would I have been brainwashed by Mu Sheng before? You reminded me. I can check it out."

"Did you find out... that many players in this game are from mental hospitals?" Zhou Qian asked.

"Yes." Situ Qing said, "but I thought it was normal. They were more or less stimulated, and that's why they were crazy. Why were they stimulated? Probably because of a major change in their lives. In this way, they have something Begging, want to grant a wish. So... the game found them. It seems reasonable. As for me...

"I was lured into it by Mu Sheng. But I don't know how he came into contact with this game in the first place. He is a gambler, not a player."

What Situ Qing said sounds reasonable at first glance.

But Zhou Qian did not agree with her judgment.

After all, there are also many people who are not crazy because of accidents, but because of a problem with the nerve itself, which is a pathological injury.

But from Situ Qing's words, Zhou Qian also gained a lot.

Now he has a completely new understanding of this game.

First, this game came to the world very early.

Second, most of the players are selected from the mental hospital, but there are also some people who do not belong to the mental hospital, such as the employees of the father's company and Situ Qing.

In addition, Ke Yuxiao, who is chatting with Qi Liuxing in his ward, is also quite special. He has been completely cured and left the mental hospital, but he is still a player.

When thinking of this, Zhou Qian heard Situ Qing on the phone and sighed.

"Influenced by Mu Sheng, I entered this game originally to help him change his leg. But as soon as we start the first dungeon, the game will make a request for us to enter the dungeon next time. If we exceed the time, we will not enter the dungeon." ...I will die. So even though I am not bound by Mu Sheng, I must go on in this game now."

"Actually, I don't have any wishes now. I just want to live a peaceful life. But I obviously can't do it. No, no, I have a wish. If I can, I want to make it up.

"Zhou Qian, I don't know... are you willing to trust me? I... I want to make amends for you, Yun Xiangrong, and Gao Shan. It's not easy to come back with another life? The system may charge us a sky-high price .But count me in.

"I hope to form a team with you to go to the next dungeon. I promise you, the gold coins I earn, I don't ask for anything, I just use them in exchange for Gao Shan's life."

One minute later, Zhou Qian hung up the phone.

Many players are willing to join the game because they want something.And once they join, no matter whether they can achieve what they want, they can't quit.Because as soon as they quit, they die.

Players enter the game, practice, and gain more and more powerful power...Try to get close to the gods, ask the gods for power, and realize their wishes.

But can they really get their wish?

Could the story of Yibo in the Apple Paradise be some kind of... highly suggestive metaphor?

·

In this way, another three days passed.

During these three days, Zhou Qian never waited for [137] to send any news.He didn't even get in touch with [Hidden Knife].

In the end Zhou Qian simply decided to ignore it.

During the preparation for the next dungeon, Zhou Qian calculated his teammates this time, he, He Xiaowei, Qi Liuxing, Ke Yuxiao, and Situ Qing, there are five of them.And the next dungeon is a seven-player dungeon, and I don't know what kind of two teammates the five of them will be matched with.

Besides, Yu Xian is dead, will the system assign other gamblers to itself?

Zhou Qian didn't know the answer for now.

Another four days passed.

Early in the morning, Zhou Qian and Qi Liuxing welcomed Doctor Li Xuehai's ward rounds together.

After making a detailed progress of the two people's illnesses and adjusting the dosage of the medication, Li Xuehai put away the notebook, and it seemed that he was about to leave.

Zhou Qian glanced at his old pedantic appearance, and couldn't help saying: "Oh, your tie is crooked!"

Li Xuehai remained expressionless, and only said, "Come to my office in an hour. I want to talk to you about something."

"Oh?" Zhou Qian was slightly surprised, but nodded, "Okay."

An hour later, Zhou Qian really went to Li Xuehai's office.

Now there are no other doctors in the office, only Li Xuehai himself.

It seems that he arranged the time to ensure that the conversation between himself and Zhou Qian would not be heard by others.

So after entering the ward, Zhou Qian closed the door naturally.

Walking up to Li Xuehai and sitting down, he asked, "Doctor Li, what's wrong?"

Although Li Xuehai has an elegant temperament, he is usually very serious.

At this moment, his expression became more serious, and his whole person appeared more rigid.

Looking at Zhou Qian, he said, "It's strange... I saw you playing some kind of game."

Hearing this, the smile on Zhou Qian's face also disappeared.

In an instant, he realized something.

Sure enough, he heard Li Xuehai say: "Now... I seem to be your gambler."
