After Online Dating with Unlimited Streaming BOSS - Chapter 56
Luo Huayue violently threw the marker to the ground and pointed to the complicated battle plan on the ship’s bulwark:
“No, even if Grandpa comes along, we can only escape four mermaids at most, and kill two mermaids together. If there are more mermaids coming—Gan, what are they doing?”
The few people who were in the battle meeting looked back and saw that the players who were revelling on the deck slipped behind them at some point, happily carrying the merman corpse, dancing and walking towards the side of the ship.
“Salute to life!” The leading man shouted with colorful rays of light in his eyes.
“Salute to life!” The rest of the players responded in unison.
“Go, go to joyful heaven!”
“Heaven! Heaven! Heaven! Heaven!”
Rong Yi stood up abruptly: “They are going to throw the body back into the sea!”
“But the merman has rotted,” ICE said. “Can it be regenerated?”
Zhang Haiyang: “Strictly speaking, after all, it has only been a long time. This corpse is only partially decomposed, and the DNA in some cells in the body is still intact.”
“It’s not that there is no possibility of regeneration.”
Raymond Vine shot: “Then stop them soon!”
However, a few people couldn’t catch up with the horses. The players danced to the side of the ship and shouted, “Salute to life!” The corpse slid to the sea!
The vines arrived, wrapping around the merman’s tail, which was dull and its scales fell off. With a “puff”, the half-rotten fish tail could not bear the weight of the mermaid, and it broke into two pieces. into the water.
Everyone hurriedly leaned over the side of the ship to see: it was nearly six stories high from the side of the ship to the sea surface. The rotting body was photographed on the water surface, and it was not much different from falling directly on the concrete. Countless rainbow fish scattered, and the corpse instantly fell into deformed pieces of meat, slowly submerging into the water.
“It’s the hallucinations that control those people…” The old man watched these people throw away the corpses, and continued to happily go back to the swimming pool to revel: “Could it be that all the hallucinations on this ship are produced by mermaids?”
The player falls into a hallucination, and the mermaid comes to prey on the hallucinated player at night – this is indeed a complete predation chain.
“There will definitely be more mermaids tonight.” Zhang Haiyang leaned on the side of the boat anxiously: “No one knows how many new mermaids these mermaids will differentiate, and how fast they will regenerate—”
“soon.”
Rong Yi pointed to the colorful light that suddenly flashed under the sea.
Those were brand new merman tails.
They did not attack the cruise ship during the day, and the colorful colors flashed and they submerged into the deep sea.
As soon as the mermaid left, the rainbow fish gathered under the cruise ship gathered again, and Rong Yi hurriedly looked away.
There was a problem she couldn’t figure out.
Even the most brilliant hypnotist has to be present to hypnotize others.
The mermaid doesn’t approach the cruise ship at all during the day, how does it hypnotize the player?
The sun shines warmly on the body, and the reflection of the colorful clouds in the sky swept across the sea.
A flash of light suddenly flashed in Rong Yi’s mind!
“The weather here is so good every day?” She turned to the old man: “Every day you are here, is the sun shining brightly and the clouds fluttering?”
The old man shook his head slowly: “It was the same weather when I first entered the dungeon. But after that, there were fewer and fewer players on the ship, and the weather became gloomy. There were occasional storms.”
“It’s really sad when the weather is cloudy. Not only is there less drinking water from evaporation, but there are even fewer rainbow fish. I’ve been hungry for up to three days.”
Rong Yi asked again, “Do you still remember the food we saw in the restaurant at night?”
Luo Huayue recalled: “…Fish meat.”
“right.”
Rong Yi stood up straight: “So it is.”
ICE is inexplicable: “What do you know?”
“This ship, and the truth about this copy.”
She picked up the marker Luo Huayue threw on the ground, drew a line on the sidewall of the ship, and drew a small fish with simple strokes below the line: “We were guessing before that rainbow fish are not edible, and they look directly at their skin. , will fall into hallucinations.”
“The truth of the food seen in the restaurant supports this idea: the cruise ship has been letting players eat rainbow fish, and after eating it, they will have hallucinations.”
She wrote the word “phantom” on Xiaoyu.
“But when we first got on the boat, we didn’t eat anything. How did the hallucination come about?”
The marker has drawn a children’s sketch boat on the line with a few clouds floating in the sky.
“It’s also known that colorful clouds in the sky can create hallucinations.”
“But when I first got on the boat I remember it was overcast and there were clouds in the sky. Just dark clouds. How did we get confused?”
“My guess is that at that time, there were actually psychedelic colors on the clouds, but they were too thin to be recognized by the naked eye.”
“It’s like infrared, ultraviolet, invisible to the naked eye, but it’s there.”
“As soon as the player got on the boat, he was bewitched by the invisible colorful light and entered the cabin to rest and sleep. On the second day, the clouds were full of confusing light, and the player also ingested a certain amount of food on the boat, and it was a sure thing to indulge in it. “
The word “phantom” was also written on the clouds.
“There are colorful clouds during the day and food in the stomach at night. The two methods of confusion are combined to ensure that the player has almost no possibility of being awake in the dungeon.”
“Of course it’s only almost.” Rong Yi looked at the old man and said, “I got rid of the hallucination by accident because I didn’t ask for anything. And you? I guess it’s because I asked too much, and the copy couldn’t be right at all. Like other players, you used hallucinations to confuse you. With your determination, you managed to wake up.”
The old man’s wish is to eliminate cancer. What kind of hallucinations are needed to satisfy this wish? Rong Yi thought that the “ta” who created the hallucination must also be confused by this.
If there is too much desire, or if the desire is too grand, there is the possibility of breaking away from the illusion.
The old man drooped his slack eyelids and looked at the sea horizon in the distance: “The longer I play in this game, the more absurd it becomes. I’d like to clear this broken game to see what happens if it doesn’t satisfy my wish.”
He said, hehe laughed.
Rong Yi asked, “Do you remember the bait you used for the first time fishing?”
“Why don’t you remember.” The old man said, “It’s just a piece of steak I took on board. I didn’t dare to eat it myself, so I tried fishing to eat it.”
Rong Yi said: “All the food on the boat is rainbow fish, and the bait you use after that is also rainbow fish meat. This shows that rainbow fish have the habit of cannibalism.”
“But why, next to the cruise ship, didn’t they devour each other?”
Zhang Haiyang suddenly realized: “Because there is food here!”
He clapped his hands: “I understand too! This is a companion relationship!”
He took the pen in Rong Yi’s hand and drew a stickman next to it, with an acute-angled triangle dragging below it.
Luo Huayue: “What is this?”
Zhang Haiyang: “A mermaid.”
He drew a line between the stickman fish and the little fish drawn by Rong Yi: “There are many creatures in the ocean that need to be associated with each other. They either cooperate to hunt, or work together to defend against natural enemies.”
“Rainbow fish and mermaid should have the same relationship.”
“If I guess correctly, the food for the rainbow fish should be the player’s desire. So the sky was dark when we first got on the boat, because the rainbow fish hadn’t fully arrived.”
“After one night, they were attracted by the desires of the players in the whole boat, and the color of the fish skin on their bodies reflected on the clouds, so the clouds also became colorful, with the illusion of sunny weather and the whole boat.”
Luo Huayue: “Clouds – are they reflecting rainbow fish?”
“Yes, the old man said that when the sky is overcast, there are fewer rainbow fish. In fact, the causal relationship should be reversed: because there are fewer rainbow fish, the genius is overcast!”
“Oh” ICE said: “No wonder the old man said that in their round, the fewer players, the gloomier the weather. Because there was no food to eat, the fish left.”
Zhang Haiyang nodded: “Yes. The desire of the rainbow fish to devour the player, I think there may also be a measure of desire. Once the desire is completely swallowed, this person has no desire in his heart, and to the rainbow fish, he is a useless empty bottle. Staying on the boat will only consume their flesh in vain.”
“At this time, the merfolk will come and eat this man. They are the scavengers of the rainbow fish.”
Luo Huayue: “I remember it! The first time Raymond, and the second time the player said something like ‘I want to stay here forever’ in his sleep before he was selected by the mermaid . Does this mean that this player has been completely captured by the illusion, and he wants to stay here forever, giving up his original wish.”
“That’s it.” Rong Yi looked at Raymond: “So, do you still remember what your wish is?”
Raymond played with a small vine in his hand, letting it bloom into a small, delicate rose.
“…I had forgotten about it.” He laughed at himself: “But after talking to the unlucky captain, I remembered it again.”
Rong Yi nodded: “That’s good. Never lose yourself and forget your original intention. This is the secret to surviving in this dungeon.”
Zhang Haiyang continued to explain the relationship between the mermaid and the rainbow fish: “The mermaid also has a function of clearing the players who are sober on the boat. Because these players will interfere with the eating of the rainbow fish.”
“These two creatures are the ones who control the illusion on the ship, and the biggest boss in this instance!”
ICE suddenly said, “No. You forgot the captain.”
Captain Evil Spirit is also the big BOSS of the opposing faction of the player. He is not in the companion system of the two creatures.
Rong Yi: “I guess the captain exists only because he existed before. Three years ago, in order to prevent him from helping players under the new rules, the system turned him into a somewhat marginalized boss.”
“My boyfriend said that the NPCs here are similar to intelligent life hatched by AI, so the system may also abide by certain rules and cannot erase them without authorization.”
As Rong Yi spoke, he took the pen and wrote the words “three years ago”.
“Every dungeon I’ve been through, every NPC I’ve talked to, mentions this time. Three years ago.”
She murmured to herself: “What happened three years ago to make all the copies change and become what they are now?”
However, these are beyond the scope of the current copy.
What they have to consider now is how to break through.
She took a deep breath and patted the ship’s bulwark, which was filled with writing and paintings: “My idea is that the number of mermaids will inevitably increase tonight–“
“Now that I know the root cause of the hallucination, I want to try to wake up all players and increase their combat effectiveness.”
Zhang Haiyang moved his muscles and bones and took a few deep breaths: “I’m ready.”
ICE gestured on himself: “Stomach, in about this place, uppercut, hit in place. Got it?”
Raymond nodded.
The old man wiped the long knife that Luo Huayue had just incarnated to him with the rag on his body, tried waving it a few times, and nodded with satisfaction: “It’s really inconvenient that you can’t bring weapons in this game. It’s the same as what I’m used to, really. Nice, really nice.”
Rong Yi looked at the sun, it was almost two o’clock in the afternoon, and there was plenty of time.
She nodded to everyone: “Start.”
Zhang Haiyang stood on the side of the ship, with his arms outstretched, and said in a low voice, “Start! [The water rushed to the Dragon King Temple]!”
This time, he used about 60% of his skill power.
The cruise ship trembled slightly, and a huge vortex formed on the bottom of the ship. The rainbow fishes surrounding the cruise ship were gradually swept into the whirlpool and turned rapidly involuntarily.
Luo Huayue took a quick look under the boat and praised: “Wow, Zhang Haiyang, I take back the ridicule I made to you before. Your toilet has made progress. Now it’s a super big toilet!”
Zhang Haiyang was exerting force all over his body, and the beads of sweat on his forehead slid down one by one, trying to hold back his voice: “…don’t tease…I’m laughing…”
The whirlpool turned faster and faster, and the rainbow fish gradually turned into circles of colorful light. With a wave of Zhang Haiyang’s hands, the whirlpool expanded, taking the rainbow fish farther and farther away from the cruise ship, and the colors of the clouds in the sky also became lighter and lighter.
The colorful cloud finally turned into a dark cloud. Zhang Haiyang shouted loudly, and the huge vortex with a diameter of 100 meters exploded in an instant, and it was faintly visible that the rainbow fish in the sky were crackling and falling into the sea.
Rong Yi and Luo Huayue were already waiting at the entrance of the cabin, just waiting for the color of the colorful clouds in the sky to disappear and all illusions to fade away, revealing the true face of the ship.
“Enter!”
The two rushed into the dilapidated cabin, and Luo Huayue led Rong Yi forward until they reached the end of the known map.
Luo Huayue carefully avoided the bewildered players around her: “Sister Rong, do you remember how to go next?”
Rong Yi: “…I try my best. Anyway, I have to go up!”
The cockpit was at the top, the only thing she could be sure of.
Luo Huayue patted her forehead: “Forget about Sister Rong, you should follow me.”
“The structure of each floor of the cabin should be similar. We already know the first and second floors, and the rest…” Luo Huayue said, and sure enough, he took Rong Yi around and around to the upward gangway.
“Amazing!” Rong Yi naturally admired those who knew the way, followed Luo Huayue all the way up, and finally came to the top floor.
“Keep going!” Rong Yi said, “I remember that after going up the stairs for the last time, there was no turning.”
They kept moving forward, and sure enough, they saw the half-open cab door!
As soon as they entered the door, they saw that the captain had already turned into a half-evil spirit and was waiting for them, his eyes were blazing with blue fire, and his bones were stretched out to them: “Dear passengers, this is not your time to come—”
Rong Yi: “Activate [See Parents].”
The captain was obedient for a second: “—Hello, sister-in-law.”
Luo Huayue secretly admired that no matter how many times she saw her, Sister Rong’s skills were always so amazing.
Rong Yi walked directly to the driving console: “Although you said you wouldn’t drive this cruise ship, I remember that you can at least turn on the system.”
“Yes, yes.” The captain stepped forward and turned on the system neatly: “I won’t know the rest.”
Rong Yi and Luo Huayue stood there, studying and fiddling for a long time:
“Is it this one?”
“Not like.”
“As long as the boat starts, it doesn’t matter where it is.”
“Oh…I think I should find the biggest button…”
“Generally, only the self-destruct button is the biggest in a movie.”
“Right……”
Captain: “Well, sister-in-law, I don’t think cruise ships have a self-destruct button.”
…his elder sister-in-law seems to be circling subtly between being very powerful and having some dishes…
Zhang Haiyang was covered in sweat and collapsed on the deck, watching the other three spit out the players who were still hallucinating.
The splendid colors in the eyes of each player who vomited will fade. Without the illusion and confusion of rainbow clouds, they remained sober and rational, and after a period of time, they could barely figure out the current situation.
“boom!”
“vomit–“
The old man was thin, but his strength was no less than that of the young man. He laughed and said, “Happy! Happy! In the last round, I just wanted to wake them all up like this!”
“Wake up! Wake up!”
“Then go to wake up other people who are still indulging in beautiful dreams!”
The old man said loudly, punching in a sentence, very rhythmic:
“No! Gentle! Walk in! That good night!”
Players wake up more and more. They are all experts who can enter the A-level dungeon. After understanding the situation, they immediately join the team of beating people.
On the deck, in the cabin, the sound of beating and vomiting all flew together!
“boom!”
“vomit–“
“boom!”
“vomit–“
Looking at the awakened players in front of him, Zhang Haiyang was filled with an unprecedented sense of accomplishment.
In the past, he was just Gou, “the poor are alone”.
This is the first time for him to “reach and help the world”.
Now, he is waiting.
Rainbow fish are fish, and they are alive and kicking fish. Although they are fried a few hundred meters away, they may be stunned by the whirlpool, but as long as they are still alive, they will follow the smell of food—that is, the players on the boat. – Gathered around the cruise ship again.
Therefore, according to Rong Yi’s plan, she and Luo Huayue will try to start the cruise after the hallucinations disappear. No matter where they go, they will start off first to get rid of the fish.
If you’re lucky, maybe the mermaid can get rid of it too.
Of course, Zhang Haiyang is pessimistic about getting rid of mermaids. According to his understanding of the physiological structure of mermaids, the swimming speed of this creature in the sea is likely to exceed the speed of a cruise ship.
In short, if the boat has not been launched before the rainbow fish rush back, Zhang Haiyang needs to use the skill again to disperse the fish, to ensure that the players who have awakened cannot be confused again.
Although he didn’t know how much power he could squeeze out.
[The water rushed to the Dragon King Temple] The most difficult hurdle to cross is not the upper limit of skill strength, but the upper limit of his physical strength. Just using 20% to 30% of his strength had already exhausted him enough, and just 60% of his strength burst out, almost making him so tired that a white light appeared in front of him.
If, if the ship hadn’t moved for a while…he thought in a daze, would he overuse his strength and die…
“Boom—”
The bottom of the boat roared like never before!
The old man slapped the man’s hand, and his eyes suddenly lit up: “This is—”
He couldn’t wait to run to the stern, lying on the side of the boat and looking down:
The propeller, which had been stationary since entering the copy, was slowly turning.
“…the boat is open…the boat is open!”
