Hyperreal board game

The humming voices of thousands of boys and girls converged into a torrent of sound waves. Although it couldn't compare with the voice of the priest, which should have been amplified in some way, it was still enough to suppress the commotion in the wishing pool.

But then, An Ge found that the man standing beside him on the right suddenly raised his left hand and slapped himself hard.

The man looked at his left hand in horror, as if he was looking at a monster, but he shook his left hand, as if he was not satisfied, he simply clenched his fist and hit him in the face.

An Ge could almost hear the sound of his nasal bone breaking, and blood flowed down his cheeks, but the man turned his head and screamed, trying to hold his left hand with his right hand.

But his right hand was immediately hugged tightly by the accompanying white-robed girl.

The girl's eyes sparkled, and this time she sang with lyrics: "Accept the possession, and wait for God to descend."

The man roared: "Let go!"

What responded to him was a brutal straight punch with his left hand.

He was still wearing a ring inlaid with gray stones on his left hand. The stone just hit the eye socket with this punch, and he couldn't open his left eye. It was so bloody that he couldn't even judge whether it was still intact.

The girl still sang expectantly and excitedly: "Accept the possession, and wait for God to descend. Accept the possession, and wait for God to descend. Accept the possession, and wait for God to descend!"

Unknowingly, everyone began to sing the lyrics in chorus.It was like a magic sound filling one's ears, echoing in the sky above the square.

An Ge wanted to go over when the man started to struggle, but was stopped by the white robed boy beside him.The boy sang intently, but stopped in his way, warned him with his eyes, and shook his head.

In the process, more and more people in the wishing pool fell into this weird chaos.

Someone pinched his own neck until he foamed at the mouth, fell unconscious and fell below sleep, and never came up again.

Some clasped their own eyeballs with their fingers until they dug out the eyeballs and pinched them firmly in the palm of their hands.

Some attacked and fought each other for no reason.

The remaining unaffected people were terrified, and some turned and struggled through the pool water, trying to climb to the shore.

Dozens of minors in full armor suddenly walked out of the crowd. These were boys and girls with particularly strong physiques, not inferior to adults. The leader of the team was the short-haired girl who went to report "an accident in the wishing pool" to the priest.

The girl still sang loudly, "Accept the possession and wait for the god to descend", and then gestured to the others.These young men and women wearing knight armor quickly dispersed and surrounded the entire wishing pool.

And using the wooden stick in his hand as a weapon, he pushed all the adults who tried to climb ashore back into the pool.

People cried, screamed, pushed, and their meaningless roars echoed over the wishing fountain. Even their voices seemed to be trapped in a cage, and they seemed insignificant under the surrounding chorus of thousands of people.

In the chaos, An Ge finally got rid of the entanglement of the white-robed boy. He couldn't see where the priest was, but saw the royal sister, the sorcerer Qingniao staggering in the water, struggling with his right hand, both eyes were bleeding, Completely lost sight.

He tried to go through the crowd to save people, but he heard Xiaomiao suddenly yelled "Clay!!"

A sense of crisis suddenly struck, An Ge subconsciously took two steps back.At the same time, the sound of sharp blades tearing through the air and the silver afterimage almost brushed against his scalp.

A figure jumped out from under the water surface, although it was wet and embarrassed, but its expression was full of indescribable excitement and evil.

It's a thief.

An Ge suppressed his anger and asked, "Tao Zi, what are you doing?"

The thief held a dagger in his right hand and a small flying knife in his left hand. He bent down and made a posture of attacking again: "Hey, do you even need to ask, idiot. Of course it's murder!"

He kicked his feet and rushed towards An Ge, and the dagger stabbed like a poisonous snake again.

The resistance of the water was too great, but An Ge activated his swimming skills and managed to dodge once more.

However, the thief did not stop. Instead, he followed the momentum and swung his dagger, cutting half of someone's neck.Then he quickened his pace again, got into the crowd and disappeared.

The one whose neck was cut open was the white-robed boy who was thrown off by An Ge and who was now relentlessly catching up.

Blood spurted out, staining half of his shoulder red, and he clutched his neck, blood dripping into the pool water.

The young man was still staring at An Ge, as if he was still annoyed by his running around, his lips were still trying to open and close, and he chanted intermittently: "Accept...the refuge, and wait for...God...to come."

I don't know if the boy's spirit has descended, but he himself has stopped breathing, and collapsed into the pool.

The other minors in white robes still struggled to hold the hand of the person they accompanied, or kept guarding the adult who hadn't shown any abnormalities.

But there are still many who are idle for some reason, so they are busy helping the teenagers who fell in the pool, and some of them are chasing the thieves.

Throughout the process, they kept on singing those two lines and never stopped.

The riot in the pool is like a human tragedy, which is still going on.People continued to climb ashore, only to be stabbed into the pool by the young knights with sticks.Someone finally couldn't help it, and roared angrily: "Follow me, fight them!"

There were actually a few adults who took out their weapons with him, and that bad-tempered warrior girl Chariot Girl was also among them.

The short-haired girl knight in the lead frowned, and suddenly drew out her long sword, so fast that it was hard to see the blade out of its sheath.The first man who climbed ashore burst out a waterfall of blood from his chest, and was stabbed by the boy with a stick and fell into the pool.

The short-haired girl continued to chant, and the long sword in her hand was still stained with blood. She slightly moved the long sword forward, pointing the tip at the people in the wishing pool.

The knights also threw their sticks and drew out their long swords. The meaning was very clear: Climb to the shore again and kill without mercy.

Someone flinched, and the chariot lady suddenly yelled: "Damn you! I won't accompany you anymore, get out!"

She waved her two-handed sword, jumped up suddenly, and jumped from the pool to the shore with amazing brute force. The menacing big sword slashed down with the momentum that could split mountains and rocks. The two young knights who were the first to bear the brunt hurriedly retreated. avoid.

However, several fireballs roared from the direction of the temple, and two of them hit the soldiers in mid-air one after another.

The chariot girl fell to the shore in embarrassment, most of her body was scorched black by the magical flames that her armor couldn't stop, she raised her head fiercely, firmly grasped the big sword, supported her body on one knee, and took the treatment Drink the potion.

However, before she finished drinking, the short-haired girl knight kicked her over. At the same time, several knights stepped forward and stabbed down with their long swords.

Blood splattered.

The runaway chariot girl died under the sword of an NPC.

An Ge has gradually retreated to the outermost layer of the chaotic crowd. He tried to stop or help others before, but as the situation got out of control, he found that his strength was not enough.

I had no choice but to call out the names of my teammates a few times to signal them to retreat.

Except for the missing and inexplicably crazy thief, the four surviving teammates all accepted his suggestion. Everyone tried to find a gap in the beating and crazy crowd, and gathered in one place as much as possible.

The fat priest who was the furthest away from An Ge was very strenuous to move, not only because he was not good at swimming, but also because he was bigger and the resistance of the water was greater.Panting, he pushed away a corpse floating on the water, but suddenly a silver light shot out from under the corpse.

Because the distance was very close, the silver light went straight into his throat.

The pastor trembled, his fingers trying to grab his neck.The thief who was close at hand smiled at him, and suddenly pulled out the dagger that had pierced his throat, and another line of blood gushed out, staining the pool red—this expression is actually not appropriate anymore.

The water in the pool, illuminated by red and blue light and repeatedly stained red, is now blood red as a whole, making the whole pool of people seem to be soaked in a pool of blood.

The others saw it too, and Xiao Yu couldn't help screaming, as if she had lost the power to act, she shrank in place and began to cry.She was not tall, and the pool water almost submerged her chin, and she was about to be pushed into the water by the crowd.

Xiao Miao shouted angrily: "Tao Zi! What are you doing? Are you crazy!"

The thief just grinned, dived under the surface of the water, and disappeared again.

Xiao Miao gritted her teeth, changed direction, and walked towards Xiao Yu with difficulty.

The warlord looked around and walked in the direction where Xiao Yu was.

An Ge then also changed direction, and everyone worked hard towards the goal of Xiaoyu.

There are more and more corpses floating on the water, there are minors in white robes and adults in various costumes, and there are far more adults than minors.

Occasionally, one can be kicked under the feet, and it is the type that wears heavy armor and refuses to take it off.

And these corpses provide a hidden opportunity for the thieves' actions.

Thinking of this, An Ge simply stopped, and then activated the stealth and detection skills.This is the first time that he has murderous intentions towards his fellow players.

Those who are still wrestling with their own hands, self-mutilating, or hurting others, it all becomes the background.

In the black background, An Ge's perception as a ranger gradually expanded, like invisible tentacles stretching around, detecting changes in every inch of space.

Then, the first thing he noticed was a familiar breath.

"Brother Clay, don't do that."

The priest didn't know when he also passed through the crowd and approached, holding An Ge in his arms.

An Ge let him hold her, and the anger that filled her heart finally subsided a little.

"You know what I'm going to do?"

The priest said: "Although I don't know the details, but judging by your expression, it must not be a good thing, so don't do it anyway. If you really have to do it, let me go."

This is... the real Yizi.

An Ge was stunned, he couldn't help but think so.

"You'll get your hands dirty, you'll get hurt, it doesn't matter, anyway, I have to go for you, Brother Clay. As long as I live, you will never be allowed to do it."

Although it was inappropriate, such a candid confession made An Ge a little bit uncontrollable.

He had no choice but to ask: "What about him?" An Ge was naturally referring to Yue Zimo Li.

"Him?" The priest smiled slowly, and gently stroked An Ge's back as if comforting, "Don't worry, there is no one else. As long as we stay in Castelpolu, there will only be me and you."

Is it that great?Even the dual personality has been cured?

Who is this so-called "Twin God" originally created by the game designer that does not exist in the DND rule book?

Why is there such a powerful force, even against the rules?

An Ge felt unbelievable on the one hand, but on the other hand... couldn't help but hope that these good things are true.

The full moon finally reached the top of the zenith. Yizai held An Ge with one arm, and pulled out a beautifully decorated scepter from his waist with the other. When the fist-sized white gem at the top of the scepter shone, the red and blue light on the temple spire immediately went out.

The knights surrounding the wishing pool also withdrew their sharp swords, took a few steps back, and blended into the crowd.

The singing like waves finally stopped.

In the suddenly quiet square, only the weak groans and cries of the remaining people in the wishing pool remained.

More young men in white robes jumped into the pool, separated the people who were still struggling one by one, controlled the self-harming people, brought them all ashore, supported them on stretchers, and marched towards the temple. walked in.

An Ge broke free from Yi Zai's hand, and looked at the pond full of corpses and scattered living people.Fortunately, Xiao Miao, Xiao Yu, and Yi Qi survived, because they were standing in a relatively remote position, and the white-robed boys hadn't approached them yet.

Just when everyone thought the matter was over, the water surface parted again, and a ghostly and agile shadow sprang out. The target of this attack was to take off the defenseless yiqi of the chain armor.Yi Qi screamed, the shadow only stabbed the shoulder, so he drew back the dagger and quickly made a second attack.

In an instant, the thief's body was split into two halves from the middle, as if being torn apart violently by invisible hands.

The two halves of the thief shook and fell into the water from two directions.

Yi Qi clutched his bleeding shoulder, his face full of shock.Xiao Yu was even more frightened of Liushenwuzhu, and just kept crying softly.

Only Xiao Miao was holding on tightly to the character card that had just been torn in half.

His expression was dull and dazed, as if he couldn't believe what he had just done.

When all the members landed on the shore, it seemed as if they had returned to the world from the blood pool hell.

An Ge hurried to the side of the three of them, Xiao Miao was still holding the character card, her eyes were dull.He took out the character card from Xiao Miao's hand, and said in a low voice, "You saved everyone, Xiao Miao. That person killed so many companions, he's gone crazy."

Xiao Miao was as stiff and dull as an old toy that was winded up and not working properly. He lowered his head, looked at his hands, and repeated: "Well, I... saved everyone."

Yiyi bandaged the wound by himself, and said, "Yes, Xiao Miao, thank you, otherwise, I really wouldn't be able to deal with that bastard... But why is Taozi's character card in your hand?"

Xiao Miao still stared blankly at her hands that were still grasping the paper: "Just now in the pool...he fell out when he took the dagger. It was floating on the water, and I picked it up. I wanted to return it to him later..."

An Ge wanted to ask them more questions, but was interrupted by a crisp voice.

"Catch her!" It was the short-haired girl knight.

The young knights rushed forward, surrounded Xiao Miao, and planned to handcuff her.

The Paladin girl was in a daze the whole time, without any resistance.

An Ge took a step forward, pushed the boy in handcuffs away, and stopped in front of Xiao Miao: "Stop! What are you doing?"

The short-haired girl glanced at him, "Uncle, don't make things difficult for us."

Big...uncle? !Who is uncle!who is uncleIt seems that there are no young ladies and sisters who are also available at seventeen, so why do you call me uncle? !

An Ge was furious.

The short-haired girl continued: "After the convention is over, killing is prohibited. This auntie violated the rules, so she was arrested. Please don't hinder us from enforcing the law."

Xiao Miao, who was estimated to be no older than 25 years old, seemed to have finally come to her senses: "What... what...?"

An Ge didn't care about this, but argued with reason: "Then you have to be reasonable, right? Obviously the other party attempted to kill the person first, and she was clearly defending herself, so why should she be arrested?"

The short-haired girl remained expressionless, and glanced indifferently at An Ge, Xiao Miao, and the others several times before finally saying, "Anyway, I'm going to enter the temple, then, please enter the temple with us."

An Ge asked, "Why?"

The short-haired girl stopped turning around, looked at An Ge, and finally showed a little smile: "You are really interesting, you have to get to the bottom of everything, and it's hard for the priest... Of course, I will enter the temple for the final ceremony, don't worry. Well, no more life-threatening."

An Ge looked at her silently, thinking about the credibility of her words.

The girl smiled more obviously, "For the face of the priest, I don't dare to lie, okay, please come with us."

Instead, Xiao Miao finally regained her senses and walked out from behind An Ge: "I'll go with you."

Yi Qi and Xiao Yu also took two steps forward: "Of course I have to enter the temple, it's finally here."

In this case, An Ge followed them into the temple as well as he did.

The hall of the temple was built with white and shiny stones like jade, and there are already more than a dozen adults standing or kneeling inside.There are still a few who were tied up by five flowers, and their faces were still terrified.

The white-robed priests guarded the surroundings, but also for surveillance.

Then, the priest, dressed in a crisp red robe, came out from the room, sat on the only high-backed chair in the hall, and said, "Congratulations to everyone who successfully passed the Possession Assembly. Have you recovered?"

Several adults looked at each other, looked down at their hands, and then nodded in shock: "What the hell is...?"

The priest then explained: "When the twin gods take possession of the mortal body, the positive and negative forces will temporarily lose balance, so you will feel as if your body is dominated by different people. Don't worry, this is just a temporary confusion, and it will recover. .”

"The length of the recovery time is also uncertain. The latest record is as long as three months, so... don't worry."

Everyone nodded with reassuring expressions, and all looked at the priest trustingly.

An Ge looked around, and felt that the trusting eyes of these people...was a bit too warm.

This walking hormone diffuser always has endless peach blossoms, unexpectedly it is the same in the game.

There were immortals in the labyrinth, and there were immortals in Rose Castle... In fact, he always felt that those female players paid special attention to Yi Zai in private.

Now that he is upright and respected by people, everyone's admiration seems to be more grandiose...

An Ge secretly sighed.

Then the priest changed his tone, "However, it is a pity that those who have not received the possession must leave Castelpolu immediately."

The so-called people who have not received the possession are people who have not experienced any strange situations out of control from the beginning to the end, including An Ge and his teammates.

There was a groan from the crowd.

"Don't!" A young woman yelled immediately, "Don't drive me away, please, my lord priest!"

She tried to rush up, but was immediately stopped by the priests in white robes, so she could only cry and beg: "No matter what you do, please don't drive me away!"

The other three or four men and women also nodded one after another: "No matter what you do, please don't drive me away! I'm willing to work for you!"

The priest raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and said softly, "Don't worry, I don't want this to happen, so I tried my best to communicate with the twin gods, and finally got the gods' forgiveness."

"You can stay," he said, and everyone was immediately elated, but the few people who had been tossed were a little unhappy. After all, they got the qualifications only after being tortured to death by their possessions. Is it possible to enjoy the same privileges without having been trained?

However, the priest continued: "However, there are conditions."

"No matter what the conditions are, as long as I can do it, I will accept it!"

"Me too!"

"Me too!"

"For the priest!"

Everyone expressed their sincerity, and strangely, Xiaoyu and Yiqi were among these people.

The priest listened with a smile, and met An Ge's eyes several times during this period, showing a wry smile.After everyone's confession came to an end, he continued, "You must have seen those ascetics in gray robes, right?"

The name is very straightforward, and An Ge immediately thought of those adults in gray robes and hair like dogs.

People also nodded one after another, and suddenly realized that those people were ascetics in gray robes.

"Stay in Castelpolu and practice hard and move the gods, then you will have the opportunity to participate in the Possession Conference again."

Having just gone through the Possession Conference, the bloody riot left the deepest impression on people, and this condition obviously made people hesitate.

Seeing someone's hesitant look, the priest continued: "Participating again is voluntary, and it's okay not to participate."

After that, it was the brave man who raised his hand first: "Good! Good! Please let me become a gray-robed ascetic!"

Some of the others made a quick decision, and some hesitated a little, but they all expressed their position one after another that they wanted to become ascetics in gray robes.

Xiao Yu also bit her finger and hesitated, then raised her hand.

Regardless of the choice of NPC, that is set.Why did Yi Qi and Xiao Yu, who are players, join in the fun? !

An Ge turned to look at the two of them in shock, gave a forced smile, and shrugged as if he didn't want to talk deeply.

Xiao Yu continued to bite her finger, and said timidly, "Because...it's safe here. And...and..."

She suddenly lowered her head with red ears, and her eyes sneakily aimed at the priest who was talking to the white-robed priest beside her.

An songs:? ? ! !Yizi, you shameful blue-faced disaster!

Next, the white-robed priests came forward in turn, and first took the few who passed the test away to other places, and the others brought daggers and rough gray robes.

People use daggers to cut their hair into an ugly look of uneven length, and then go to the makeshift changing room to change into dusty and tattered clothes, and take the changed clothes, together with their belongings—equipment , props, and even money bags, everything was handed over.

After changing their clothes, a white-robed priest took them out of the temple, saying that they were taking them to the dormitory where the ascetics lived together.

Seeing that Yiyi and Xiaoyu were about to cut their hair, An Ge hurriedly held Yiqi back, "Wait..."

Yiqi sighed, "Clay, don't stop me... I'm tired and I don't want this kind of life to continue. And here is my most important person, no matter what I am asked to do, I will never leave her again."

Now that it's all said and done, An Ge can only let go.

Next, the only people who failed the test and were unwilling to become ascetics were An Ge and Xiao Miao.

They stood alone on the red carpet in the center of the hall, staring at the priest silently.

The short-haired girl knight came in at this time, bowed to the priest, and reported Xiaomiao's violation of the rules. At the same time, she was fair, and repeated An Ge's defense, saying: "Since this aunt still wants to Driven out of the town, unable to be detained, and not punishable by death, I therefore propose that she be fined."

Xiao Miao glared at the girl when she heard the word aunt this time.

The priest sighed: "Captain Lan's punishment is very reasonable, but please don't pay too much. After all...there are still many places to spend money outside."

The short-haired girl lowered her head slightly: "Please obey the law."

Then, Xiao Miao went out with the girl named Lan to pay the fine.

Except for the eight entourages who were silent and negligible, only the priest and An Ge were left looking at each other in the hall.

Before An Ge could speak, the priest left his seat, approached and hugged An Ge tightly again.

An Ge: ...not only became a priest but also became a hugging madman?

The priest's tone was low and worried, yet extremely firm: "Brother Clay, don't worry, I will definitely, definitely find a way to get you back."
