Hyperreal board game

In the dead of night, everything is silent.

Castelpoiro, like all other towns, has mostly fallen asleep, except for a very few.

The temple guards are heavily armed.The newly appointed captain of the guard, Jie, is a tall and burly boy with a very serious Chinese face.He re-confirmed the situation of the patrol and the guards, and then he was going to go back to the dormitory to rest.

The white stone hallway floor was polished so smooth that Jay was always secretly worried that those little girls who looked light and fluffy would slip on the floor.

Just as he was looking at the floor meaninglessly, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a shadow that flickered away from the corner of his vision.

He immediately pulled out his sword, shouted "Who is it!", and rushed in that direction.

The guards also rushed over, and under the pillar in the corner of the temple, a raccoon cat was startled by the mighty rushing crowd, and fled away with its hair blown.

Everyone laughed easily and put away their weapons one after another, "Captain, you are too nervous. Last time it was the little priest Lili, last time it was the swallow under the eaves, this time it was the cat again. Next time it will be the spider Bar?"

Everyone was laughing, Jie touched his head and laughed shyly, the guards began to disperse and returned to their posts.

After a short period of chaos, the temple returned to tranquility again.

The additional members who participated in the patrol also finished their work and returned to the dormitory to rest.

In the silence, a figure slowly emerged from the shadow on the top of a certain pillar in the corner of the hall.

An Ge slid down the pillar soundlessly, moving his hands and feet that were stiff from fastening the ceiling stone carvings for a long time.

The captain was very vigilant, and his perception was high enough. If An Ge hadn't reacted quickly, he would have been discovered almost.

He evaded the guards, using the shadows of furniture and pillars to sneak into the hallway where the patients were.

You can hear the noise inside through the door.

Xiao Miao is a paladin, her strength is higher than that of ordinary people, and ordinary priests can't suppress her at all.

He heard a tearing sound coming from the door, and a girl said, "No, you still have to tie it up."

Then there was the hoarse cry of Xiaomiao, who was on the verge of collapse: "Cut it off! Cut it off, it's not my hand! No! Ahhhhhh—"

What followed was the ping-pong sound of a container breaking.

In the room next to Xiao Miao is the Warlord Yiqi, whose situation is only worse than that of Xiao Miao.An Ge even suspected that he heard one or two jaw-dropping sounds of bone fractures. Fortunately, in this game, healing spells can heal instantly, so breaking a bone is nothing.

Still not reconciled, he walked further into the corridor, and finally reached the door of Xiaoyu's room.This place is different from the other two's room, it looks very quiet.

An Ge cautiously opened the door, and found that he was finally lucky once, and Xiao Yu was the only one in the room.

It is estimated that the other two were too difficult to deal with and used most of the manpower in the temple.

Xiao Yu was leaning against the head of the bed drowsily, her right hand was firmly tied to the bedpost, and she would twitch from time to time, trying to struggle to get away.

Occasionally she would wake up with a start, always looking at her struggling right hand in horror.The physical strength of the mage is weak, so although the hand seems to have independent will, it is not as strong as the physical strength of the paladin and the warlord, so it can only resist weakly and weakly.

An Ge entered the door and lightly woke up Xiao Yu.

The mage girl was calmer and more alert than he had imagined, which helped a lot.Although she was startled at first, she immediately calmed down when she saw that it was An Ge, "Clay? Why are you sneaking around?"

An Ge explained: "I came here during the day, you were all asleep, and you didn't let me in at night... Besides, it's not convenient for NPCs to hear what I want to discuss with you."

Xiao Yu's face was a little weird, An Ge asked, "What's wrong?"

She shook her head: "nothing, what do you want to say?"

An Ge pondered: "Can you tell me what happened to you first?"

Xiao Yu sighed: "I don't know..."

She and Yi Qi stayed as ascetics and were taken to the ascetics' dormitory that night.Although the ascetics are frightened towards outsiders, they are still very friendly to Xiaoyu and loyalty who have also become ascetics.

Then, the two of them suddenly had an attack that night. Fortunately, Xiao Yu's spell level was relatively low, and the spell casting needed to be coordinated with spells, so it didn't cause too much damage.It's just that righteousness waved the smashed chair with one hand, injuring several people.

They had to go back to the temple again, and met the little cat who had the same seizure in the temple, and then, An Ge also knew everything after that.

As Xiao Yu spoke, her slender shoulders trembled, "Clay...I feel something is wrong. I'm afraid this is not a sequelae of some kind of god's possession...Have you heard of alien hand syndrome?"

An Ge shook his head, and Xiao Yu explained: "It's...a kind of neurological disease caused by damage to the corpus callosum of the brain. Its symptom is that the patient feels that one hand is out of his control, as if he has become an independent individual ...and even attacked and killed himself in reverse. It is exactly the same as the current situation, right?"

An Ge felt that this idea was not too unexpected, but while paying attention to the movement outside the door, he discussed with Xiaoyu in a low voice, "Well, it's exactly the same. You said it was caused by damage to the corpus callosum of the brain? That is to say , the cause is brain disease?"

Xiao Yu nodded: "Generally, stroke patients are prone to illnesses, or brain surgery sequelae, or brain infections. This kind of damage is irreversible, so it... can't be cured. Clay... what to do, I, I'm so scared."

An Ge comforted her: "Where are we, have you forgotten? Even if it can't be cured in theory, as long as we can go back."

Xiao Yu was still very frustrated: "I'm like this... I can't use spells at all, I'm a useless person, I, I don't have confidence."

An Ge rubbed her head, "Don't worry. In fact, if this theory is true, it's probably caused by a brain infection, and it really has nothing to do with the possession of the gods. It's easy to handle..."

Xiao Yu: "Eh? Easy?"

An Ge hesitated for a while, but said, "I may have a solution, but it may not be useful. Would you like to try it?"

Xiao Yu nodded vigorously, but was suddenly pulled violently by her right arm, and was about to hit her head against the wall, but fortunately An Ge caught her in time.

She panted with a pale face, "Look, I still have a way out, no matter what, it's okay, let me try."

An Ge went to find a cup, poured half a cup of water, added a drop of essential oil, and handed it to her: "Drink it."

Xiao Yu's eyes widened: "Fengyoujing?? Where did it come from??"

An Ge: "It's a long story, this was originally my amulet, I should have brought a few more bottles with me."

Xiao Yu had a look of disbelief, but he still drank the water.

The next process was similar to what happened to Fusu. A lot of black liquid flowed out from the corners of Xiaoyu's eyes and nostrils. The girl retched unbearably, and used several glasses of water to wash off the dirt.

The treatment was immediate, and Xiao Yu suddenly rushed to untie the rope that bound his hands, while holding his right hand, desperately resisting the urge to cry out with joy.

"Clay you're a genius! Wow I'm done! Wow feel it, my hand is back...saved!"

An Ge had no choice but to tell her to be quiet again and again, but Xiao Yu managed to hold back, covered her mouth and whispered, "Then, Xiao Miao and Yi Qi are saved..."

An Ge said: "Xiao Yu, I will find a way to save them, but you have to hide this matter first and pretend that you are still sick."

Xiao Yu blinked her eyes, "You suspect... Then, those NPCs may know that this is not a god's possession?"

An Ge nodded, but couldn't say a word - it's hard for other NPCs to say, but it's impossible for the priest not to know.

Even so, the priest still hoped that An Ge would be infected.

Is it really because of the infection that one becomes a resident of Castelpolu?

Xiao Yu is very sensible: "I understand. Please help me tie it up."

An Ge helped her tie her right hand back to the bedpost, and then asked, "Xiao Yu, I have a way to take everyone out of here, but let's make sure first, do you plan to stay?"

Xiao Yu hesitated for a moment, then suddenly shook her head vigorously: "It's meaningless, I should return to reality honestly."

She grinned: "It is inevitable that there will be times when you want to escape... I was wrong... I will also persuade Xiaomiao and Yiqi, when shall we go?"

An Ge said, "The next time you will have a possession meeting."

Xiaoyu stared at him worriedly: "Clay, even if you have that, that, the possession conference is still too dangerous, it's better not to take risks..."

An Ge asked, "What is our occupation?"

Xiao Yu: "...adventurers..."

"How can adventurers not take risks?"

Xiao Yu lowered her head silently, "Then, then I will also participate."

An Ge: "Don't worry, I guess there will be another Possession Conference soon, and you will be forced to participate if you don't participate. These days, you are secretly collecting some information in the temple. Since there are no Gemini Gods Possessions, So what's going on with all this? What kind of medicine is sold in those underage gourds?"

Xiao Yu: "I think what's being sold is a virus, not a medicine..."

An Ge laughed, and told her a few more words. When she noticed that the movement in the other two rooms gradually became smaller, she had to interrupt the conversation, got up and left.

Before leaving the temple, he mustered up his courage again and wiped the essential oil on his eyes.

The scene in front of him made his scalp tingle, but it was almost as he had expected—the concentration of black bugs was higher than elsewhere, and even layers like ocean currents could be seen.

There was a puff of black smoke that was extraordinarily thick like a smoke column, reaching the square outside the temple.

And at that position, there are guards stationed for a long time, and idlers are not even allowed to appear nearby.The surroundings are all open spaces without any cover, and there are no buildings used to cover up their whereabouts at all.Only when relying on the General Assembly can it be possible to approach.

The wishing pool, like a strange-shaped volcano, continuously spewed dense swarms of tiny insects, and the black smoke spread in all directions, covering the entire town.

An Ge left the temple, quietly returned to the residence, and got in through the specially opened window.

Then he took a drop of Fengyoujing himself with lingering fear.

The hot taste went straight to his brain, and he couldn't help squatting down and coughing a few times, the liquid dripped from the corner of his eyes one by one.It was crystal clear tears, completely uninfected.

An Ge was simply crying.

I feel disappointed and ashamed, and I am so embarrassed that I can't bear it.

What kind of ulterior and unsightly desire does he have for that boy who simply and passionately trusts and loves him...

So much so that you will be bewitched by inexplicable monsters, and you will expect things that you don't deserve at all.

Just like when it was in the drama club.
