nightmare exec

In the titled [When the peaches are ripe!In the dungeon of the tech-savvy brother Online Double Fly], Song Yin and Alexander are sitting side by side on the top of a high mountain, eating peaches and looking at the scenery.

About five or six minutes ago, after a not-too-intense battle, the monster in this dungeon was successfully subdued by the two of them.In a rare dream with beautiful mountains and rivers and vast expanses of peach forests, Song Yin proposed to take a break, and by the way, exchanged experience with the water friends off-screen about purchasing equipment.

During the three days after leaving the amusement park, Song Yin, who was stimulated, was not willing to waste a single day, and devoted himself non-stop to the century-old plan of earning money and changing equipment.

However, his original plan was to recruit Alexander and Yun Shi at the same time to form a three-member team.But after the breakfast meeting, Yun Shi never replied to the message he sent, and even his account was always offline.

Although Song Yin was a little suspicious and uneasy, there was nothing he could do. He could only temporarily partner with Alexander and open some challenge dungeons that were not too difficult and had relatively low points to "fill up the household".

After gnawing on the second peach in his hand, Song Yin licked his fingers, intending to discuss "combat boots with the highest cost performance at the price of 5000 yuan".

However, he hadn't swallowed the last mouthful of peach meat when he heard three special beeps "two short and one long" from the earphone.

"The Aksha system issued an emergency announcement just now." Ergou, his family's assistant officer, said: "Now we are recruiting people to participate in the super dungeon."

"Super dungeon? What the hell is that?"

宋隐掰着手指头往上数——0级练习、1级普通、2级挑战、3级困难、4级危险、5级稀有、6级传说，怎么又跑出一个“超级”来了？

It was Alexander who gave him a patient explanation: "A super dungeon is also called an emergency dungeon, which refers to an important dungeon that requires a lot of manpower to be resolved as soon as possible. Its criterion is not the strength of the stowaway, but the impact of the dungeon on human society." degree of influence."

"So, the super dungeon is the stowaways causing big disturbances in human society?" Song Yin understood quickly, "In order to avoid subverting the three views of ordinary human beings, we should solve this super trouble as soon as possible?"

"That's what I mean."

Alexander nodded in approval of his understanding, "So far, all the dungeons you have solved, including those on the gambling boat, were all made by a single human being. But in fact, there is another kind of 'collective dreamland', It is formed by the interpenetration and fusion of the dreams of many people. The copy of the dream is larger and stronger, and it can also accommodate more terrifying stowaways to the world."

It sounded exciting, but in fact Song Yin was already excited: "Ergou, is the system's summoning aimed at all executive officers?" He asked, "Is there any level limit?"

"I suggest that you both quit the current copy first."

The artificial intelligence assistant reminded them to pay attention to the current situation: "The stowaways have been resolved, and the structure of the dream has begun to loosen. If you stay any longer, the dream owner should wake up."

"Success, you bastard, help us close the copy."

Song Yin nodded, but before she finished speaking, the peaches in her hands suddenly turned into two lively little snakes.He was so frightened that he dropped the snake with a "huo", another one lost his center of gravity, and actually slid down the high and steep cliff.

Fortunately, the dungeon was closed at this time, and he just fell heavily on the sofa in his home combat preparation room—landing face first.

"Are you OK?"

Alexander on the side quickly stepped forward to help him up, and pinched his nose again, "It's bleeding."

Fortunately, the recovery speed in Purgatory is very fast, and there is no need for special treatment for this minor injury.So in the next few minutes, Song Yin pinched her nose and frowned while listening to Ergou explain the ins and outs of the super dungeon.

From the perspective of ordinary human beings, this is simply a must-have urban legend ghost story for summer.

And it really has to start this summer.

Chen Mei, who just turned 18 in May this year, is an ordinary female college student with a pretty appearance and an ordinary family background.However, few people ever knew that Chen Mei was still an overly fanatical star-chaser—to use the current language: brain-dead fan.

In the Internet age, various industries are constantly being subdivided, and fan groups are no exception.Unlike those fans who want to control and criticize their idols, pick them up and send them off, and raise funds and gifts, and only hope that their idols will be full of faces and become popular, Chen Mei, who has relatively tight living expenses, never participates in support and fundraising activities, and even seldom Interact with other fans.

But at the same time, Chen Mei has three Weibo accounts at the same time, and the "biggest" one only has 230 fans.

On Weibo, Chen Mei never pays attention to, likes, or mentions her real beloved idol.In fact, these three Weibo accounts each perform their duties, with a clear division of labor:

Account A: Abusing all other idols who she considers to be a competitive threat to her beloved idol.And scolded other idol fans who came to the door.

Account B: Pretending to be a fan of other idols to attack other famous idols with huge fan bases.Take the opportunity to provoke a war of words between the two.

Account C: dedicated to collecting and displaying extreme remarks of other idol fans.

According to the various information she disclosed on social media, she sometimes felt like an assassin who endured humiliation. Jinyi traveled thousands of miles into the enemy's camp at night, willing to kill himself, just to protect the lord whose name she could not name in her entire life.

Sometimes, she felt that she was the heroine of a palace fighting drama who had been in the palace for more than ten years, watched the intrigue with a cold eye, and could see through all kinds of conspiracies and schemes at a glance.With a face like peach blossoms and a heart like a snake, no sister can play with her better.

And most of the time, she just rages for no reason, doesn't make sense, like a poor-quality firecracker, and the air of the Internet is full of sparks in her imagination.

Someone will definitely ask: "How can there be such a boring person in this world".I'm afraid even Chen Mei herself can't explain why she did this.

Perhaps the name-calling vents the daily stress.Perhaps fierce speech can be exchanged for more presence.Or maybe it's purely an antisocial dark mentality.

Chen Mei thought that her "three-faced game" could be played forever.But if you walk a lot at night, you will always encounter ghosts.

That is to say, this summer, after another unprecedented online scolding war ended, a delicate "opponent" used the domain name of Chen Mei's Weibo account A to find her email account, and from the email account to her high school. Tieba account registered during the period.

In the post bar, they not only found Chen Mei's q()q number, the name of the school post bar, but even found a graduation photo from her former classmate's space album that could identify her appearance.

Immediately afterwards, someone discovered that Chen Mei's QQ account was exactly the same as the personalized domain name of her Weibo account B.

And for a certain photo she posted on the forum, the external link used was actually the album address of her Weibo account C.

That's it, in just four or five days, Chen Mei's "triple identity" was completely exposed.

Public opinion snowballed from anger to surprise, and then from surprise to carnival, and quickly got out of control.

After the summer vacation, on the third day of the university, Chen Mei was blocked by a group of people from outside the dormitory building.

Facing the teacher who questioned her crimes, she categorically denied that she was the one whose online fighting power exploded.It didn't take long for the school security to quell the incident, but the cyber violence on the Internet has just begun.

The first thing that appeared was the emoticon pack combining Chen Mei's three heads and the sow's body.Every time I upload a piece, I will deliberately @陈美’s three Weibo accounts.

Immediately afterwards, there were all kinds of information and gossip about her family and school. There were text versions, picture versions, and even bilingual versions. Even if she kept reporting, it would be useless.

In the third stage, Chen Mei's true favorite idol was also exposed.The crazy opponent compiled Chen Mei's past words and deeds into a long Weibo, and bundled her idol in the picture.

This electronic indictment was constantly forwarded between accounts.It has even become a hot topic of gossip among many self-media celebrities.

More and more people cast contemptuous and contemptuous glances at Chen Mei.It even includes people who follow the same idol as her.

"If your identity is exposed, you can die by yourself, don't hurt everyone." ——In a private message, a fan who once praised her for "swearing so well, why don't you curse a little more" left a message like this.

"People like you don't deserve to like our brother at all." More fans disregarded the relationship like this: "It's basically a black fan, hurry up and die!"

Gradually, the abuse spread from the Internet to offline.From the big-character posters that appeared on the public board, to the printing paper pasted outside the dormitory door, and then to the discussion posts on the campus bbs.

Chen Mei began to avoid all eyes around her. She stayed in the dormitory behind closed doors, and even curled up on the bed for a long time.

And all these abnormal behaviors, in turn, became a new topic for others to talk about.

……

Such a siege of public opinion continued intermittently from the start of school to before the National Day holiday.Chen Mei's mental state was deteriorating, but the school and parents did not pay enough attention.

After the National Day holiday, Chen Mei never returned to campus.She jumped from the balcony of her home on the sixth floor, and fortunately landed on a small boxwood in the green belt, but suffered multiple organ injuries and broken ribs, and had to be hospitalized for treatment.

According to speculation, she should have met the stowaway that belonged to her during the days when she was rescued from a coma.

"It turns out that she is in a coma, not a daily dream..."

Alexander muttered loudly: "No wonder things are going to make a big fuss."

"What else is there to say here?" Song Yin was curious.

"Of course there is... Wait, for the convenience of explanation, I'll go buy a model first."

After all, Alexander quickly placed an order in the mall. One minute later, the item appeared steadily on the coffee table in front of him.

It's a colorful rainbow cocktail.

"This is your prop?" Song Yin was puzzled.

"Don't worry, let me explain to you."

Alexander carefully pulled out the small umbrella inserted on the rim of the glass as a tool, pointing to the whiskey layer on the top of the cocktail: "First of all, you regard this layer as an ordinary human world."

Then he pointed the small umbrella to the second layer below the whiskey: "Then this layer of white orange liqueur is our short-term memory. The external information we come into contact with every day will be temporarily stored in the short-term memory. At night we When falling asleep, the brain will select some relatively important ones from these short-term memories, pack them up and send them to the next layer—our long-term memory.”

At this point, the umbrella moved to the third layer of the cocktail, the dark red cherry brandy.

Song Yin silently swallowed her saliva, and took the initiative to ask: "Then there are still several layers of wine down, so what do you say?"

"For the average person, long-term memory is already the bottom layer of consciousness. Their cocktail has only three layers."

Speaking of this, Alexander changed the subject: "However, people who are comatose and dying have the opportunity to pass through the above three layers and enter the deeper fourth layer. And in the process of passing through deep and shallow memories, they will see past memories, The reappearance of deceased relatives before our eyes is known as a near-death experience."

"It is so!"

Song Yin has long heard that people will have hallucinations when they die, but he didn't expect to be able to explain it in this way.

He asked again: "Then where is the fourth floor?"

Alexander stretched out a finger, pointing to the floor: "This is here—Purgatory."

"It's here?"

After a short period of shock, Song Yin immediately figured out the truth - she also came to purgatory after being in a car accident and comatose into a vegetative state.Although Chen Mei was in a coma, the principle should be the same.

"But why is Chen Mei infected by stowaways, but we are not?" he asked.

"Because she doesn't have the talent of being a dream executor, she wasn't selected by the Aksha system, so she couldn't get the shelter of purgatory." Alexander replied, "When you came to the safe house on the first day, did Ergou tell you You, must not step out of the iron fence on the edge of the garden? Must not enter the thick fog outside the fence? That is the unprotected area outside purgatory."

Song Yin's back felt cold for a while. It's not that he didn't doubt the nature of the thick fog, but he never expected that there was a beast area just across the wall.

Seeing Song Yin's surprise, Alexander immediately sent comfort: "Don't worry, although it looks like an ordinary iron fence, it is an absolutely solid barrier. At least I haven't heard of it since I entered Purgatory. Which house's railings have been damaged."

After finishing speaking, he picked up the small paper umbrella again and tapped the wall of the wine glass lightly: "Let's get back to the topic. Chen Mei is just an ordinary soul and cannot stay on the fourth floor where we are." .But she has two options—one is to return to the original path and return to reality. The other is to go directly through the fourth floor and enter a deeper place."

Song Yin was fascinated by what he heard, and couldn't help asking: "What else is under the fourth floor?"
