Top Horror Novelist - Chapter 166
“Mr. Chi, come here quickly.”
The other party lowered his voice extremely low, almost breathless, for fear that his voice would be noticed by the people around him if his voice was a little louder.
Even when the other party was talking, he looked around like a cannon fodder, as if there were crises everywhere, and he was quite frightened.
When the other party looked up, Chi Yiyin finally realized the other party’s identity from the flashing face under the wide-brimmed hat.
Tong Yao.
Just after boarding the train, several people had already met each other and got to know each other’s disguised appearance.
Because of the special concealment function of the Yunhai Train, only teammates can see each other’s true identities, while others see them as ordinary passengers who have been disguised.
If Tong Yao was standing in front of Chi Yiyin, he could have recognized him at a glance, but Tong Yao also made more disguises, changing clothes, hats and eyes, changing body shape and appearance…
Chi Yiyin almost failed to recognize the other party, but confirmed her identity from the way she spoke and her address.
Jingcha was still at a loss, but Chi Yiyin had already turned around and nodded to the others, then walked to the seat by the window and sat down.
He could feel that when he walked towards Tong Yao, several eyes in the restaurant were on him, exploring his identity.
But when he tried to find the owners of those sights in reverse, he failed.
All the passengers sat in their seats, except for the initial inspection of the few extra people, then turned their heads indifferently and continued to do their own things.
It seemed that it was just Chi Yiyin’s illusion that everything was a war.
As soon as he sat down, Tong Yao tightly grabbed his arm.
“Mr. Chi… It’s dangerous. Everyone here may wish to kill us.”
Being so close, Chi Yiyin could even feel Tong Yao’s unstoppable trembling, the hand holding his arm couldn’t even hold his clothes, as if it would fall off at any moment.
Tong Yao’s eyes hidden under the shadow of the hat were wide open, his nostrils were flared, his breathing was rapid, and he looked like he was having difficulty breathing.
Excessive tension almost made her lose the ability to organize words, and she just instinctively kept reminding Chi Yiyin of danger, danger, and absolutely don’t reveal her identity.
Chi Yiyin frowned, leaned closer to Tong Yao’s side and listened attentively, and finally slowly straightened out what happened before.
It all started with the player who died in the box.
Pandora’s box has been opened since the first witness shouted.
Players and NPCs mixed in watched the dead in the box. While getting the rules of the Yunhai Train, they also exposed their identities, making them be targeted by NPCs.
NPCs pretend to be players, set up traps, and sang with the bartender, making players mistakenly believe that other players sacrificed their lives in order to survive. In a panic, everyone was forced to join the battle, trying to clear the level and kill other players first. people gain safety.
A large “stampede” began.
Even though many players discovered the problem during the period and tried to end the cannibalism, the insidious part of Yunhai Train’s conspiracy lies in the fact that they had to jump into it even though they knew it was a death trap.
Because it’s not someone else’s death, it’s your own death.
No one is so noble and kind as to sacrifice his life for a group of strangers.
Panic and death swept the entire train like a wave, and almost all passengers were involved.
And the worst thing was—Skye was crazy.
When the saint is completely disappointed and determined to fall into hell, even the devil will flee.
Even Chu Yueli didn’t expect that this sage who had saved people in Tangjia City for three years and never changed his mind no matter how the other players complained and insulted him, would completely collapse on the Yunhai train.
The players made a wish to each other, using other people’s lives as compensation in exchange for their own safety.
Panic spreads like a virus. Even the most sane players are in danger of being sacrificed in the next second, and they are inevitably disturbed by other people when they gather, and cannot make correct judgments.
Not to mention that there are also NPCs who take the opportunity to stir up the water and disturb the players’ sight.
Chu Yueli realized that this is a trap of human nature, a game field that understands the inferiority of human beings, and a stage for cannibalism prepared for the things that players fear most.
But Skye…he was completely insane because of the past pain that was brought up.
He actually made a wish to the train, and was bored with exhaustion, wanting to destroy the whole world.
Even though Chu Yueli discovered something was wrong in time and knocked out Skye to try to terminate the wish, but the New World’s attitude towards players was insidious in the same strain as the game field.
Just like the previous trigger mechanism, it only needs the player to have a thought, and there is no more time to think, and it will be automatically captured by the game field.
It doesn’t give the player any chance to repent.
There are times in a person’s life when they lose control of their emotions and have irrational thoughts, or they want to hurt others, or they want to completely destroy everything.
The source of the pain has been there from the beginning.
However, corresponding to the instinct of destruction is human self-control and cowardice.
No matter what it is, it will stop people’s actions before they do more terrible things, so that those chaotic and evil thoughts will stop in their minds, and they will only become an idea that will never be realized.
But… the game field took advantage of this, even if it was an unspoken and unfulfilled idea, it would be realized by the game field.
This further expands the damage players can deal.
It also made Chu Yueli’s attempt to stop Skye fail.
Although Skye’s idea of destroying everything was only half left because Chu Yueli interrupted it, the game field was able to realize part of it.
The scope of the destructive effect… from the whole world, was reduced to the train of the sea of clouds.
All the passengers who stayed here, whether they were players or NPCs, faced a crisis without distinction.
The gaps in the walls of the carriages, the depressions in the tables and chairs, every inch of the corners that cannot be illuminated by the light… The ghosts returned from the abyss of death, responded to the desire of destruction, stretched out their hands to the living people, and tried to drag them into the abyss.
Chu Yueli is not a combatant, not to mention that he is holding a Skye who was knocked unconscious by him, which makes it even more difficult for him to avoid the ubiquitous ghosts.
And Tong Yao, who is also an intelligence expert, was also too busy to take care of himself, and because he didn’t know what Chu Yueli had seen, he was angry at what Chu Yueli had done to his companion, so he couldn’t take care of him for a while.
After Tong Yao finally squeezed out of the ghosts and dead bodies with difficulty, and rushed into another empty carriage not far away, she was able to breathe.
But when she turned around and wanted to help Chu Yueli, she was shocked to find that Chu Yueli and Skye had all disappeared.
In the carriage behind her, only the passengers wrestling with the dead bodies, and the people who had fallen and were lying on the ground were left unknown.
Among the chaotic figures, she couldn’t find Chu Yueli.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Chi, I’m obviously a companion with them, but I haven’t protected any of them well, and I don’t even know where they are now.”
Now Tong Yao recalled what happened before, still trembling all over, not completely freed from fear.
Filled with guilt, she kept apologizing to Chi Yiyin in a low voice, regretting that she had separated from Chu Yue.
Chi Yiyin frowned, not expecting that Chu Yueli would be in crisis because of this.
However, he was still slightly relieved.
As long as he was not faced with too strong force, or died on the spot, with Chu Yueli’s awakened ability, he would have a chance to escape.
“It’s not your fault, it’s a game between the two parties who made the agreement.”
Chi Yi’s voice was flat, reassuring Tong Yao not to think too much: “Since the incident has already happened, it’s useless to think too much. Why don’t you think about how to make up for it and find those two people.”
“Since we are companions, we must go together when we come together, and we cannot leave them here.”
Tong Yao didn’t know the inside story, but Chi Yiyin, who knew the truce agreement between the world consciousness and the gods, knew why this happened.
It’s not that no players have noticed before that the rules and styles in the game field reveal a completely different sense of contradiction everywhere.
One side is to help the player pass the test and advance, and gently let the player survive.
On the one hand, there are traps full of malice. It seems that the only goal is for all players to die, and they are reveling in death.
Severe split.
If Playground is conscious, it’s probably schizophrenic.
But the deeper reason is that there are already two independent camps pulling and restricting each other.
The world consciousness wants everyone to live, like a gentle mother, and doesn’t want anyone to be hurt.
However, the system strictly does not let the slightest mistake go, as long as the player makes a slight omission, he will immediately declare failure and usher in a brutal death.
It is precisely because of this that the rules of the game field are always gentle and cruel.
It seems to give the player life, but it is actually dangerous. It seems to be a fatal ending, but there are always hints leading to victory in the details.
On the Yunhai train, such contradictory and harmonious rules also run through the beginning and end, which is also the reason why the players are in chaos.
However, Chu Yueli…
Chi Yiyin couldn’t help frowning, and asked Tong Yao: “Do you have any clues to find Yueli? Which carriage did you get separated in? Can you find it?”
Tong Yao’s eyes were full of guilt: “The situation was very chaotic at that time, and I tried to find it again, but after I went back according to my memory, Chu Yueli and the others were no longer there.”
“Not just them, but all the other passengers who should have died there.”
Tong Yao has never been a cold and rational person, otherwise she would not have been in the game field for twelve years, but before she met Chi Yiyin, she had been indifferent to the world and stopped at C-level without ambition.
Even though she didn’t know why Chu Yueli attacked Skye at that time, and she was full of disappointment and anger towards him, she still didn’t want to put her companion in danger, so she didn’t just ignore Chu Yueli.
At that time, Tong Yao ran into a pure white carriage by mistake.
The carriage door slammed shut behind her.
Tong Yao was astonished, rushed over to try to open it but failed, and could only watch the passengers in the carriage behind through a few glass panes, still killing each other.
Obviously, outside the car window is the beautiful surging sea of clouds, a grand and magnificent scene that is rare for human beings to see, but inside the car window, there is a **** and cruel fight.
Such a stark contrast made Tong Yao’s eyes widen and his whole body trembling.
Then she realized that the carriage she broke into seemed a little strange.
It is not a bar car or a box car, nor does any train staff or passengers exist.
Everything was quiet, the entire carriage was wrapped in pure white, and even Tong Yao’s breathing echoed.
It seems that what she is in is not a carriage, but an empty valley.
Tong Yao was puzzled, and in order to find a way to leave this weird carriage, he began to walk carefully into the depths of the carriage.
How long can a carriage be?
But Tong Yao looked into the depths, but couldn’t see the door at the other end at all.
She was a little strange, turned around instinctively, and looked towards the confirmed escape exit.
But in the time she took these two steps, the compartment door, which was still tightly locked just now, had disappeared.
Together with the chaotic crowd and corpses behind the carriage door, it has already led to all possibilities of Chu Yueli.
Tong Yao’s several attempts failed, and looking around, there was really only a blank space in the carriage, not even a speck of dust.
This pure white space is so empty and silent, but it can’t give Tong Yao even the slightest clue.
Helpless, she had no choice but to continue walking forward, trying to reach the depths of the carriage to see if she could find another exit.
Tong Yao has no companions, and she has to do the work of protecting herself and collecting information by herself, so her physical strength is far better than that of Red Bird.
But even so, walking in the carriage made her sweat profusely from exhaustion, almost like running a marathon.
The watch stopped at the moment of entering the car, looking forward and backward, there was only a piece of white, and the whiteness did not know the end of the road.
I don’t know the passage of time, and I can’t judge the distance of the journey. Such a long, almost desperate.
But Tong Yao always remembers the agreement with Chi Yiyin, and also remembers Chu Yueli who separated from her.
She gritted her teeth and decided to be a fool for the time being, not asking when she would be able to leave, but just keep walking firmly.
And in the distance, something really changed.
—The black placed in the pure white space is so abrupt and eye-catching.
Before Tong Yao could be surprised, the next second, she realized that it was a coffin!
When she walked to the side of the coffin and gently pushed the coffin away vigilantly and carefully, she was stunned when she saw the dead body lying in the coffin.
The person in the coffin was wearing a long snow-white dress, and his skin was as pale as paper, without a trace of blood.
But the woman’s face with her eyes tightly closed…is clearly the face that Tong Yao is all too familiar with.
That’s what she sees in the mirror every day—her own face.
The person lying in the coffin is herself!
At the moment when this cognition came into being, Tong Yao only felt that the temperature of her whole body was dropping sharply, her hand holding the coffin trembled so much that she could hardly hold it, and almost staggered and fell into the coffin.
For a moment, she even felt that her soul had left, and she herself was lying in the coffin, watching the soul standing outside the coffin, observing herself.
The confusion of identity made Tong Yao’s cognition confused, and even the current space could not be accurately judged.
Her breathing began to be short, and she subconsciously reached out and grabbed her collar, trying to get more air for herself instinctively for survival.
But the pure white space in the car rejected her—the dead body, why does it need air?
Tong Yao began to suffer from hypoxia, dizziness, numbness in the brain, and rapid decline in cognitive and thinking abilities. The powerlessness caused by hypoxia made her unable to even run, so she could only weakly support her coffin. He stared at his own face in the coffin.
Then, the pale corpse slowly opened its eyes.
The pure black eyeballs have no whites, and the rich black seems to be spilled ink, rotting bone and blood, quietly flowing from the eye sockets and sliding down the pale cheeks, even staining the pure white silk lining in the coffin.
Even slowly filling up the entire coffin, the dead bodies in the coffin were also submerged in it.
Only the viscous black liquid was left, swaying gently in the coffin, and even stained Tong Yao’s fingers holding the edge of the coffin.
In an instant, everything around me seemed to have changed.
The light dimmed, and there was a slight breathing sound in the quiet space, as if… a second person had appeared.
Before Tong Yao could react, he felt the cold shiver on the back of his neck.
A pair of hands that were as cold as ice cubes silently rubbed the back of her neck and rested on her shoulders.
Then, those cold and pale arms slowly stretched forward, appeared in her field of vision, slowly wrapped around her neck, and slid down to her shoulders…
In the end, the whole cold and temperatureless body was tightly attached to Tong Yao’s body from behind, as if parasitic on her back.
A head rested on the crest of her neck.
Long black hair, like silky satin, flowed down her shoulders and hung in front of her.
Tong Yao watched all this happen, but could do nothing.
Couldn’t even move.
Desperation tightly gripped Tong Yao’s heart, she was trembling with fear, she didn’t know what was going on, but she knew that she was being targeted by a dangerous monster in the dungeon.
I have been struggling for my life, and for the first time, I mustered up the courage to become Chi Yiyin’s companion. I wanted to get through the game field and leave under the leadership of that miraculous character, but did I die in the end?
Died in this piece of no one knows the place.
But in the long and endless despair, Tong Yao heard the system voice coming from his mind.
[Dear New World Candidate Tong Yao, ID code E28743, it is detected that your current mental state and physical condition have reached a critical value, warning! If you die, you lose your candidacy. 】
It was obviously still the mechanical sound without any emotion, but it instantly made Tong Yao feel the urge to burst into tears.
Being able to meet a fairly familiar existence in such an unknown place where time and space have all failed, suddenly made Tong Yao feel at ease.
But she also noticed that the system’s name for herself had changed.
No longer a survivor, but a…candidate.
Candidates for what?
Tong Yao was at a loss for a while.
[Your current survival value is dropping rapidly, three, two, one! 】
[I’m very sorry, you have lost your candidacy. Tong Yao, who was eliminated, you will have the last chance to choose—go on, or accept the last tender care from the world for you, and face death here. 】
The system did not make malicious and happy announcements as usual, but instead gave Tong Yao the right to choose.
But it made Tong Yao even more confused, and didn’t understand the effect of the choices given to her by the system.
Death… How can death be called caring?
Her doubts were soon answered.
The cold body that hugged her from behind whispered softly in her ear, like the love and affection between twin sisters.
“Stay here…”
“Just here, with me, we no longer have to face the pain and danger outside.”
“The things that upset you, the things that made you miserable, the betrayals and hurts, are all gone.”
“Whether it’s loneliness, loneliness, loss, pain, despair, confusion… I won’t let you feel any negative emotions anymore. I will be by your side, forever and ever, even death can’t make you You lose my protection.”
“And all I want is one thing.”
The person behind him tightened his arms.
Tong Yao could even feel the cold breath exhaled by the other party when he spoke, which landed on her skin, causing goose bumps.
“Tong Yao, you are me, please…make the right choice and don’t let yourself regret it.”
At the same time, Tong Yao finally saw the face of the person behind him clearly.
That was clearly the corpse of “myself” who had just disappeared in the coffin!
Panicked and confused, Tong Yao’s mental defense retreated, giving foreign objects an opportunity to take advantage of.
At that moment, countless images flashed through Tong Yao’s mind rapidly one after another, and the main character in them was her.
Crying, roaring, sad…
Holding the dead companion’s body and crying loudly, the exhaustion and wounds when being chased and surrounded by monsters, the despair of falling to the ground in the rainstorm and watching the hope gradually shattered.
Even Chi Yiyin’s death.
It was as if countless futures were showing cruel corners to Tong Yao at this moment, allowing her to see how muddy and difficult the road she was going to walk was.
—Would you regret your choice?
You can’t choose your birth, and you will howl and cry when you collapse in despair, asking why the world let you be born and endure all this pain.
However, the world that you questioned and resented actually…heard your voice.
The aggregate formed by the subconscious mind of all human beings is like the mother of human beings.
It understands human beings, tolerates human beings, loves people like a mother protecting a young child, gently embraces the painful and desperate child in her arms, and hums the old lullaby again.
And “Mother”, gently gives you the right to choose again.
You once decided that it was dangerous to go above the C level, now what?
Do you want to make changes to the choices you have made?
Yes… Continue to enter the new world, with a label that has been eliminated, but still fight side by side with your companions who are still eligible for candidature, make wedding clothes for them, endure all sufferings for them, and even sacrifice your own life.
Still, think of yourself and sleep happily ever after in heaven.
Tong Yao held herself up as if being embraced by her mother. In that tender embrace, no matter what decision she made, she would only receive her mother’s smile and silent support, without any condemnation.
She can…
Again, choose whether to stay out of pain or not.
Happiness, isn’t it?
Why do you have to pursue the truth and core of the world? That has nothing to do with you. Why sacrifice yourself for others?
In a trance, Tong Yao heard whispers in his ear, and another “self” behind him seemed to have traveled through time and came back from the future to find her, just to prevent her tragedy before the tragic future happened.
Other than that, there is no selfishness.
Tears flowed down his cheeks slowly.
Tong Yao’s lips trembled, and all the grievances and sufferings in his heart turned into tears.
Like a child who was bullied outside, she threw herself into the arms of her mother, receiving gentle comfort and a sense of security that she would never be bullied again.
The “self” behind him stretched out his hand and gently wiped her tears.
Tong Yao almost blurted out, “OK”.
But the syllable was stuck in his throat, and he couldn’t say it no matter what.
In the pure white space in front of him, even the air seemed to be fluctuating.
A touch of bright red broke into it, destroying the original whiteness and sanctity, and the strong emotions of people permeated in, making this space no longer pure.
Ma Yuze’s translucent figure appeared in Tong Yao’s field of vision flickering.
Like a screen with a bad connection, now and then.
But Tong Yao could still clearly see the disappointment that Ma Yuze looked at him.
Her blood-red lips opened and closed, the golden phoenix crown swayed in her hair, and the red wedding dress looked like the blood and tears of a ghost.
She was asking herself-why, give up!
—What you gave up is exactly what I longed for when I was alive.
Mr. Chi gave me a second journey, giving me the opportunity to change the script of my life and make the regrets in the past come to fruition.
But you, you already have the chance to change all this alive!
Why give up, why choose death!
There was obviously no sound, but Tong Yao understood Ma Yuze’s angry interrogation, and seemed to empathize with her disappointment.
Tong Yao’s heart was sour, and he almost cried.
No, that’s not the case! I promised Mr. Chi to help him get through the game field and return to reality, Chi…
Among the complicated thoughts, Tong Yao suddenly froze.
She suddenly remembered—yes, her destination is not a pure white and painless death, but the future.
A future of returning to reality, returning to relatives and friends.
Even if it would bring pain, and even pay the price of death, but because she has the courage to choose, she is an independent person, not a puppet held by something.
“…Do not.”
Tong Yao froze on the spot for a long time, finally she shed tears and struggled to squeeze out a syllable from her throat.
The arms of the person behind him suddenly tightened, almost breaking her ribs.
But the pain made Tong Yao wake up instead.
“no no!”
“I can’t, stay here.”
Her consciousness gradually cleared up, and the ability to think returned to her brain, allowing her to make her own voice.
The answer was decisive.
“I still have an agreement to fulfill, my companion is still waiting for me. I have no need to regret what I have already decided – that is my own decision! Whether it is pain or death, it is my own business .”
“It’s who I am now, not who I will be in the future!”
Tong Yao’s eyes were firm: “No matter who you are, I will not stay. Either you kill me now, or I will definitely leave here.”
There was a long silence behind him.
The pure white space is like a melting glacier, the pure and quiet world gradually recedes, and the sounds from the outside world come in again.
And the cold arms that hugged Tong Yao were slowly retracted.
However, before the people behind him completely disappeared, Tong Yao heard a sigh in his ear.
‘One day, you’ll… regret it. ‘
“Because, I am your future, and you regret the painful time that was frozen at that moment.”
Tong Yao’s eyes flickered.
She subconsciously turned around to look, but everything that confused her just now had disappeared.
Behind her, the door of the carriage reappeared, and behind the glass was still the chaotic scene she was familiar with, with corpses strewn all over the ground.
But looking forward, another door is open.
Ma Yuze’s figure, as well as the coffin and dead body just placed in front of him, all melted like ice and snow.
But the strange thing is that the scene outside the front door is exactly the same as that behind Tong Yao, which is the carriage she just escaped from.
Like a ring, blocking both ends of this carriage.
Tong Yao suddenly felt strange.
But thinking of Chu Yueli, she gritted her teeth and walked forward.
She supported the door frame of the car, and finally turned her head to take a deep look at the car that was gradually returning to normal. This was the peace she rejected.
Then, she turned around without looking back, and rushed into the car in the melee without hesitation.
Just when Tong Yao left the empty carriage and stepped into the carriage where Chu Yueli and Chu Yueli separated, everything suddenly became clear.
It was as if the layer of foam covering the ears was broken, and the high-degree lenses in front of the eyes were also taken away, the world appeared clearly before the eyes again, and the masquerade mask was taken off.
Tong Yao saw that many players were screaming into the air in the car, arguing, accusing, attacking, and even hurting themselves.
Everything is like a funny one-man show, only the player who directs and acts on his own is attacking himself.
The enemy in the fantasy does not exist, it seems to be a delusional victim who has hallucinations in a mental hospital, the target of hysterical fear and attack, so absurd to ridiculous.
Tong Yao even saw that a player smashed the wine glass, inserted glass shards into his own eyes, and fell down in the gushing blood.
died on the ground.
The bartender is always standing behind the bar, watching it all with a smile.
She looked at everything in front of her in disbelief, and suddenly felt that the world was so **** **** up!
It’s ridiculous, ridiculous, even the harm is completely unnecessary, it’s completely killing yourself.
But what’s even more sad is that no one realizes all this.
However, no matter how anxiously she searched, she did not see Chu Yueli and Skye.
Where they stood before, there was only blood flowing all over the ground, and even splashed on the car window, still showing that there was a fierce battle here before.
Could it be that she came back too late, and something happened to Chu Yueli and the others?
Tong Yao lowered his arms weakly, his eyes filled with sadness for a moment.
The bartender noticed Tong Yao who was standing still and did not take part in the self-harm, but he didn’t seem surprised.
Like a program that had already been written, he turned to Tong Yao, stroked his chest politely, and bowed in greeting.
“Dear guest, you have won the respect of all the staff of Yunhai Train. For the next journey, please allow us to protect your safety and wholeheartedly provide you with the most humane service.”
Tong Yao smiled bleakly, pointing at the players who were still addicted to his fantasy, and asked the bartender, “Is this how to protect it?”
The bartender was noncommittal to Tong Yao’s sarcasm, he was still smiling, but there was a little more “human” emotion in that smile.
“Not everyone who boards the Sea of Clouds train is a distinguished guest of the train. Without the respect of the train, they are naturally only worthy of being fuel for the train to run.”
“And a guest like you who has passed the test…”
The bartender reached forward and made an inviting gesture: “It’s getting late, do you need a meal?”
“Through this carriage, you will enter a new world.”
Tong Yao was stunned for a moment, not expecting to get such an answer.
But then, she suddenly thought of something, and quickly turned around to look back.
The pure white carriage that passed just now had disappeared behind her.
It seems that the meaning of its existence is to let her face the future of her death face to face, and when she refuses, everything is meaningless and dies naturally.
Instead, it was a burning stove.
Tong Yao saw several tall conductors standing beside the huge stove.
Their faces were gloomy and cold, and they mechanically threw the fuel on the ground into the stove, and the gears of the train began to rotate, and the machine gained support.
It seemed to be the power room of the train.
And those fuels…
Tong Yao lowered his head in a daze, and looked at the ground behind the car door, but what he saw were the dead bodies of several players.
Some of them seemed to be alive, their chests were still heaving violently, and they raised their hands tremblingly, wanting to ask for help.
But the conductors turned a blind eye, their strength was too great to break free, and they could only watch themselves being thrown into the stove.
The flame suddenly rose, and sparks shot out.
The screams came from the stove, heart-piercing.
In the bright firelight, the shadow of human bones appeared.
The scorched arm tried to stretch out, to the outside of the stove. But only halfway there, it hangs down weakly, and falls into the stove again, unable to break free.
The conductors lowered their heads in unison, watching the scene expressionlessly.
The flames cut their angular faces into light and dark, as terrifying as devils.
Tong Yao shuddered.
But what made her even more desperate was…
On the ground next to the stove, crutches were thrown away at will.
That was Chu Yueli’s crutch.
Because he has a broken foot, he stands out among the players, and he is the only one who can use a cane.
But now, the crutch that Chu Yueli had been holding in his hand all this time appeared beside the cremator-like stove.
Not far away, there were still neatly stacked charred skulls. After the burn, only the scattered bones were left that had not been reduced to ashes.
And the dark and sunken eye sockets looked straight at Tong Yao.
It seemed that Chu Yueli, who was already dead, was asking her why she didn’t come back to save herself.
Tong Yao covered his mouth, weeping uncontrollably.
She wanted to confirm, but just as she took a step, the carriage disappeared from her eyes.
Instead, the bartender who didn’t know when to smile and stood in front of her “invited” her to the restaurant with a respectful but involuntary attitude.
“Now that you have obtained the qualifications, then, candidate, it is time for you to take on the life and death of everyone and the world.”
The bartender smiled and said words that Tong Yao couldn’t understand: “Your decision will affect the life and death of countless people, your hesitation will destroy the world, and the consequences of all decisions will be on your soul until you don’t die anymore. Unbearable, the moment when you voluntarily die to seek relief.”
“As a candidate, there is no willful qualification. You can’t share a room with firewood.”
Tong Yao wanted to ask what the so-called candidate was, but not long ago, the system reminded her that she had lost her qualifications and was eliminated?
As soon as she thought about it, the system immediately reminded her.
【congratulations! Candidate Tong Yao, you have obtained the qualification for the carnival game field, please continue to work hard for the world and life. 】
and many more! Why the broadcast of the system is contradictory!
I just said it before…
Tong Yao suddenly froze.
She realized that if the melee and enemies in the car were fantasies, then was the system notification sound she heard before, the so-called “heaven” and the pure white car also her own hallucination?
A rigorous and real test for the soul.
Tong Yao couldn’t help feeling a little scared.
If she had succumbed to the hallucination just now, would she also become firewood in the furnace like these players who committed suicide?
But… what if now is an illusion?
Tong Yao was dizzy and felt that his mind could no longer handle the amount of information in front of him.
When she regained consciousness, she was already sitting in the restaurant car.
The waiter in a suit was politely bowing and asking her what she wanted for dinner, but Tong Yao’s reaction was to **** her clothes and accessories.
Then she rummaged around in the restaurant for things that could be used, and used them to change her image,
