Today I scare non-humans again [Unlimited]

Jiang Heng looked at the enlarged familiar faces on the screen, and observed them curiously for a while.

It was exactly the same, like the self I saw when I woke up in the morning and looked in the mirror.

Jiang Heng's gaze fell slightly, and he fixed on "my" clothes.

The gorgeous aristocratic clothing is the same as that worn by the mirror image I saw before.

In his panic, Jill didn't consider the identity of the person he framed. This was a very stupid move, but it happened to be Jill's way of life.

"Jiang Heng" on the screen held the rusty short knife and continued his activities unconsciously. Jill quickly moved forward and continued to run away, but he knocked himself off the wall in the process of escaping. Invisible camera on chest.

The invisible camera fell to the ground and rolled a group on the thick velvet carpet. It was not damaged, but dutifully took pictures of every move of "Jiang Heng" in the distance.

The clothes of "Jiang Heng" changed rapidly, and gradually transformed into the normal clothes that Jiang Heng wore when he first entered the game.

Then the figure of "Jiang Heng" quickly disappeared at the end of the corridor, apparently going down the side stairs.

Then Jill should have discovered the loss of the props, and immediately returned in a circle, picking up the props back.

"This—what's the situation?" Klein was a little confused.

Jiang Heng bent his knuckles and pressed them against his chin: "Well... this should be the time when I'm about to enter the game."

Alva frowned: "What do you mean?"

"His last clothes were the clothes I wore when I first entered the game. After I entered the game, I should have taken his place." Jiang Heng briefly explained.

Seeing that Jiang Heng didn't seem to have finished speaking, Klein paused the playback of the video first.

"Jill's video gave several important information." Jiang Heng said.

He stretched out his index finger: "First, the scapegoat who killed the captain was Jill from the very beginning. I was mistaken because I had black hair and black eyes and held the murder weapon."

Jiang Heng slowly stretched out his second finger: "Second, how to complete task one."

"Third, the number of days in the time loop is five days."

"Fourth, the order in which the five of us entered the game and the exact time."

After thinking for a while, the other two quickly nodded clearly.

Jiang Heng blinked: "The first point is very simple, and there is no need for too much explanation. The second point needs to be analyzed in detail."

"The way to complete mission one is to commit suicide." Klein quickly pointed out.

"Well." Jiang Heng affirmed Klein's statement, and continued, "But it's more than that. Otherwise, after Jill is eaten by Crystal Orchid, he should be able to pass the level, but the system declared him [Death]."

"I have some guesses about this. Jill was eaten by the crystal orchid, and their food seems to be the soul, which means that Jill's soul was eaten by the crystal orchid." Jiang Heng said, "So I think the conditions for customs clearance Perhaps it also contains the premise of "the existence of the soul."

Alva pondered: "Then, Jill's death cannot be judged as clearance because Jill has no soul."

Jiang Heng: "Yes."

Klein concluded: "Then we have to commit suicide on the premise of ensuring that our souls are not eaten?"

"...That doesn't hurt..." Klein shuddered.

"The customs clearance method will not be so extreme. This can only be said to be the last resort. We can choose other methods." Jiang Heng reassured.

Seeing that the two of them didn't ask any more questions, Jiang Heng began to talk about the third point: "The third point is that the Hilt ship has been living the same five days. As for whether these five days have always been exactly the same, we may be able to Jill has the answer in the video that follows."

Alva added at this time: "I think it is very likely to be different, at least the third cycle we have experienced and the fourth cycle we are going through, there are some surprises in some details, and Jill didn't say it before Is it? The cycle is breaking."

Jiang Heng nodded: "Well, according to the video, the first cycle and the second cycle should look roughly the same, but there are still some details that are different. For example, Jill itself is a variable."

Klein continued to speculate: "Maybe it's because the actions of us players are not fixed, so the cycle is gradually collapsing?"

Jiang Heng was taken aback for a moment, thought for a while and said, "It's very possible, but maybe it's not just us, there are other changing factors."

"You mean, those crew members?" Klein thought for a while and came up with an answer.

"Well. Some of those crew members don't seem to be under control at all. If you look closely, you will find that the people who hunted Jill are all the same, as if they are the only ones who can chase people around without restraint." Jiang Heng said.

"It's the same group of people, I just noticed it. And when I ran away before, I always felt that the people chasing me seemed to be the same group all the time, but I'm not sure." Alva said, "It's more clear in the video. Clear, I'm sure it's the same batch."

"That..." Klein interrupted suddenly, he hesitated, as if he was not sure about what he wanted to say.

"What? Hurry up, what are the big men doing? He's like a bitch." Alva said gruffly.

Klein pouted unhappily: "That's right, didn't you notice? The people chasing you are all pirates."

Alva was dumbfounded: "Huh? Pirates?"

Jiang Heng was thoughtful.

Klein rolled his eyes at Alva, and simply turned the image backwards, freezing on the front view of the crew members captured by Jill's camera.

"Here, are they all pirates?" Krain pouted.

Jiang Heng glanced at the screen, and after seeing the familiar Tommy En and Ai Rui, he said, "They are indeed pirates."

"That is to say, only the pirates can move freely, but the real crew members can't." Jiang Heng frowned.

Alva had a flash of inspiration: "Wait, did Deputy Captain Tretter tell that pirate leader Merritt before—"

"'Merritt, your crew members have already woken up, you don't need to care about it.'" Jiang Heng answered slowly.

Klein was in a trance for a while, then came back to his senses: "Yes, he said so."

Alva said, "Is the 'sane' he said a condition for the pirates to move freely?"

"Awake..." Klein scratched his head, "Does this word have any special meaning? It can't be that they are awake." He shrugged as he said.

None of the three had any clues, so they unanimously decided to put this question aside for now.

Jiang Heng licked his lips to moisten his dry lips, and then continued: "The fourth point is the order and timing of players entering the instance."

"First of all, Jill, he entered first, and the entry time was on the first day of the first cycle." Jiang Heng began to count with his fingers.

Klein and Alva nodded in agreement.

Jiang Heng continued to count with his fingers: "The second one is Alva, and the entry time is the last day of the first cycle. This is a little bit different from the previous speculation."

Previously, he and Gu Jinyan speculated that Alva's entry time was in the middle and early part of the second cycle, but it was actually a little earlier.

"The third one, no, it should be said that the remaining three people should have entered at about the same time." Jiang Heng raised his eyes, the light flickering in his star eyes, "I, Kurian, Klein, three Individuals are entering the game on the last day of the second cycle."

"That is to say, Alva, among us you are the only one who has completely experienced the second cycle, a relatively complete cycle that is close to the initial cycle." Jiang Heng looked at Alva.

Klein put his hands together: "Because the second cycle is the closest to the first cycle, it is the lowest in terms of the degree of collapse and the possibility? Is that so, Chris?"

Jiang Heng smiled gently, and responded, "Yes."

"Originally, this should be a clue, but Alva, you were imprisoned for three days, weren't you?" Klein was distressed.

Alva sighed: "Yes." He was silent for a while, as if thinking about it, "However, I still found something."

"I was locked up for a total of three days, the third, fourth and fifth days of the second cycle, all three days spent in a cramped warehouse."

"I heard those crew members, no, they were pirates, I heard the conversations of those pirates." Alva recalled earnestly.

----------------

Tommy En stood at the door of the warehouse with a cigarette in his mouth, and looked at Alva coldly and contemptuously: "He's quite resistant, he's not dead."

Alva was using his own restoration props, and was unable to move for the time being. He just sat cross-legged on the ground quietly, with his head down and no response.

Tommy didn't care about Alva's reaction either, he just wanted to vent his emotions.

He cursed several times in a low voice, and the crew on the side were overwhelmed and stopped him.

"Tommy, calm down, I know you hate stowaways because of those things, but..."

Tommy En choked: "Aren't you? Ari."

Ai Rui sighed: "Tommy, isn't the stowaway doing that because of the plot?"

"Of course I hate it, but what I hate more is the director who created us and trapped us on this ship."

Tommy was silent.

"If it wasn't for him, none of us would be in pain, would we?" Airi murmured.

Tommy snuffed out the cigarette: "Tell me, what kind of mood did he create us with?"

"..."

"I don't know, but I know he definitely doesn't want to see it like this." Ai Rui said, "Although he hopes that his characters can look fresh, he doesn't want to see such vitality come from him. It must have been taken from humans."

"It's absurd enough that a puppet has a soul." Ai Rui sneered.

Tommy En closed his eyes: "Tell me, who ate his soul? The boss? Or Tretter?"

"Or--"

"nobody."

----------------

"Are they characters? They still eat souls?" Klein couldn't believe it.

Alva spread his hands: "That's what I heard."

"Wait, why didn't you say that before?" Klein glared at Alva.

Alva was helpless: "There is no suitable time, and I don't know how to say it. I am also at a loss. I just finished watching that strange interview before I got a clue."

Jiang Heng tried his best to sort out the threads from the ball of wool suddenly thrown by Alva: "In other words, as characters in the movie, they were created by the director, and because the director was trapped on the Schilter ship, so you hate him? "

"And eat the soul!" Klein added.

Jiang Heng bit his lip and counted the clues with a tangled face: "Character, eating soul, trapped on a boat, sober—?" He vaguely felt that these clues were closely related, but he couldn't think of anything to connect them for a while. together.

Klein suggested: "Just continue to watch the video, I can't think of anything even if I just think about it."

The recording starts playing again.

Jill was finally caught by the crew and taken to a dinner party for public display.

But he found the right time and used Klein's blackout device to advance the blackout that Klein was preparing for, and broke free from the crew's shackles in the dark, and escaped again.

Klein said angrily: "So it was his fault! I said that I obviously didn't set the power outage so early, which made me almost run out!"

Jiang Heng comforted softly: "Don't be angry, don't be angry, he's already out." As he spoke, he smiled comfortingly at Klein.

Klein looked at Jiang Heng's dimples, and his anger subsided.

Then Jill explored on the Hilt ship and found some clues, but these three people basically already knew it, and it was not of much use.

Jill hid in a dark cabinet and quietly eavesdropped on the conversations of several crew members.

"Tsk, did more people become sober, so the plot began to collapse." A crew member said.

"Don't be afraid, it will repair itself, didn't the deputy captain Tretter say?" Another crew member replied.

"How many souls do we need to eat before we can truly live?"

"Who knows? The deputy captain has been talking all day to make everyone on the Shilt ship better, and to make the Shilt ship better."

"I don't want to be a movie character anymore. I want my own life. I can't stand being manipulated by the plot."

Suddenly Jill's camera made a slight beeping sound.

"Who's hiding there!"

"Damn, no battery at this time!" Jill cursed, quickly turning off the camera.

The recording ends here.

Jiang Heng lowered his eyes, and slowly expressed his thoughts: "Perhaps, these characters are trapped on the Hilter cruise ship in the movie scene by the movie plot, and they need to eat their souls to stop being manipulated by the plot, which is the so-called—— "

"wide awake?"
