At night.
Pseudoman planet.
In a dark and damp street corner, a man holding a black suitcase and wearing a black windbreaker looked around.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he quickly opened the manhole cover on the ground and jumped into it.
The city's sewers are large enough for adults to run around in them.
After the man ran all the way to the end of the sewer, he suddenly turned a corner.
The next second, he appeared in a room surrounded by lead sheets. In addition to the lead sheets, this room also had a specially made sound-insulating layer made of sound-insulating cotton.
This prevents the roar of the generator in the room from leaking out along the walls.
"How's it going?" Seeing the man in the windbreaker entering the safe house, a woman in the room hurriedly stood up and asked, "The informant we planted at the top of the dummy has not been exposed, right?"
"No." The man put the suitcase on the table and replied casually.
The woman asked again: "What about the security code for invading the reincarnation space? Did the informant give it to me?"
"Here you go." The man opened the suitcase and took out the disk that was carefully kept inside. He handed it to the woman and said, "This time, will I be the one to invade the reincarnation space?"
"Let's go together."
The woman replied: "Recently, the searches of dummies have become more and more frequent, and the manpower of our rebel organization is constantly decreasing."
"We need to add more people."
"So, we have to pull as many people out of the reincarnation space as possible while the security code is still valid."
The woman said as she took two helmets from the safe house.
After she put one of the helmets on her head, she gave the other one to the man in the trench coat, and then she lay down on the chair and quickly lost consciousness.
After the man in the trench coat put on his helmet, he followed closely behind
…
Just like last time.
After staying in the reincarnation space for nearly seven days, Chengsheng once again ushered in a new round of reincarnation.
Before the teleportation, Chengshuo, the man in camouflage uniforms and others gathered in the lounge hall.
Shaoqing, a dazzling white light suddenly filled the entire lounge, and Shengsheng also became more energetic at this moment.
He wanted to find out how the system of the reincarnation space transported reincarnations like them.
The living entity resides in the heart of the current body.
After Cheng Huo mobilized a small amount of 'power of pain' from his body and blessed his body, he could control all the disturbances around him.
at the same time.
The system's countdown prompt also came from the watch on his left hand.
[System prompt: All survivors will be teleported in 1 minute. 】
[Teleport countdown: 60, 59, 58]
After the last experience, I set a time limit to survive, and when there were only ten seconds left in the countdown, I carefully felt all the subtle changes in my surroundings.
[Teleport countdown: 10, 9, 8, 7]
As the countdown continued to approach, Chengshuo once again vaguely felt that the power of emotion enveloped his entire being.
this force
Because I was prepared, I could clearly feel the trajectory of that emotional power this time.
He could feel the impact of that emotional power on himself.
He could even feel the series of effects that emotional power had on time and even space.
And as Chengshuo became more and more aware of the power of emotion, he seemed to have mastered this power in some mysterious way.
Not long after.
After the dazzling white light gradually disappeared, Chengshuo discovered that he had been transported to a huge palace.
There are numerous sarcophagi placed in this palace.
From the carvings in the palace and the shape of the sarcophagus, it is easy to see that this palace is suspected to be a legacy of ancient Egyptian civilization.
Cheng Sheng looked around and found that in addition to the eight people in the team including the camouflage man, there were a total of thirteen new people lying on the ground unconscious.
Oh, no.
Not everyone is in a coma.
Among these newcomers, there was a man in a trench coat who was awake from the beginning to the end.
He had been pretending to be unconscious.
Cheng Sheng saw through it without saying anything, and just turned his attention to the man in camouflage clothing.
As the captain, the man in camouflage clothes was the first to speak: "It's weird. As far as I know, the number of reincarnations entering the reincarnation space will increase as the difficulty of reincarnation increases."
"But no matter how the difficulty increases, the number of reincarnators will never exceed twenty."
"But this time." The man in camouflage clothing counted again. There were a total of thirteen newcomers lying on the ground.
He frowned and said: "Counting these newcomers, there are currently twenty-one reincarnations in our team. This has exceeded the upper limit, and it shouldn't be."
Is there one more person?
After hearing what the man in camouflage clothes said, Cheng Sheng subconsciously looked at the man in the trench coat who had been pretending to be unconscious among the newcomers, thoughtfully.
"Where is this?"
While several people were thinking about it, they saw the newcomers waking up from their coma one after another.
After seeing the newcomers waking up one after another, the man in the windbreaker followed the newcomers and stood up from the ground.
When he stood up, he did not forget to look confused.
"Everyone, welcome to the terrifying reincarnation space!"
When all the newcomers woke up, the man in camouflage uniform, who was the captain, explained: "Dear newcomers, you can understand this 'horror reincarnation space' as a game."
…
soon.
After some explanations by the man in camouflage uniform, all the newcomers had a general understanding of the terrifying reincarnation space.
All the newcomers, including the man in the windbreaker, had expressions of fear and excitement on their faces.
at the same time.
New mission prompts were also updated on everyone’s left wrist watches:
[Main mission·Terror of the Tomb: Your team has been assigned to the 'Unknown Pharaoh' camp, and members of the 'Explorer' camp will enter the tomb in three days. 】
[Killing all members of the explorer team means the mission is completed, and killing the 'Unknown Pharaoh' means the mission has failed! 】
"broken!"
In the ancient tomb palace.
After reading the mission prompts on his watch, the man in camouflage frowned and said, "This time, it is actually a confrontation mission, requiring us to fight against another Samsara team."
"And the most important thing is that in the judgment of the system, we seem to be on the weak side."
"We are at a disadvantage?" The slender girl wearing glasses in the team asked doubtfully, "How did you see this?"
The man in camouflage uniform said: "From the time of entry, it is not difficult to see that in order to give the weaker team a certain chance of winning, the system will let the weaker team enter the reincarnation first. In this way, the weaker team, You can make various preparations in advance.”
"In addition," the man in camouflage uniform continued: "It is not difficult to see from the main missions that the 'Unknown Pharaoh' camp we were assigned is definitely a relatively strong one, while the 'Explorers' camp is relatively weak. Weak side. This is probably also a way for the system to compensate for our weak team."
The bespectacled girl glanced at Chengshuo and said, "According to this, wouldn't there be someone stronger than Senior Cheng in the enemy's reincarnation team?"
"That's not necessarily true." The man in camouflage uniform shook his head and said, "As far as I know, if you have power before entering the reincarnation space, it will not be counted by the system."
"So in the eyes of the system, Senior Cheng is just a newcomer who hasn't been strengthened a few times."
Speaking of this, the man in camouflage uniform said confidently: "So in this confrontation mode mission, our team's chances of winning are still quite high."
"With Senior Cheng here, it's not impossible for us to directly crush the opponent."
In the team.
After listening to the analysis by the man in camouflage uniform, everyone looked at Chengshuo together.
But Shengsheng didn't seem to care much about the upcoming 'enemy reincarnation team', and just glanced at the man in the trench coat.
He said bluntly: "Friend, you don't seem to be a newcomer, right?"
! !
The man in the trench coat, who had been pretending to be unconscious before, was shocked when he heard this.
But soon, he regained his composure and nodded: "You guessed it right. I am indeed not a newcomer to the reincarnation space. After careful calculation, it is now my sixth time to enter the reincarnation space."
Chengshuo followed the windbreaker man's words and said: "Then I don't understand even more: although you have been reincarnated for the sixth time, there is no trace of any strengthening on your body."
"After six reincarnations, he is still just an ordinary person." Chengshuo asked in confusion: "So where did the reward points you got go?"
"It's a long story." When asked by Chengshuo, the man in the trench coat smiled bitterly and took out several blue pills from his arms.
He explained: "You may not believe it when I tell you: In fact, the so-called 'reincarnation space' you are in is simply fake. It is a world simulated by virtual reality technology."
"If you don't believe it, just take a blue pill in my hand and you will understand all this immediately."
After saying this, the man in the windbreaker did not forget to scan the senior members of the team, including the man in the camouflage uniform, and waited for the surprised expressions on their faces.
but.
After realizing that everyone looked as normal, the man in the trench coat said blankly: "Why don't you feel surprised at all? Do you not believe what I said?"
"Of course I believe it." Chengshuo didn't take the blue pill from the man in the trench coat, but just smiled and said, "Because we already know what you just said."
After saying that, he turned to the man in the trench coat and asked: "So who are you, and what is the purpose of coming to the reincarnation space?"
"I'm here to hunt for people in the reincarnation space."
Seeing that he has such a strong ability to accept life and knows some of the inside stories, the man in the windbreaker simply said straightforwardly: "Actually, reincarnations like you who were thrown into the reincarnation space have grown up in a petri dish throughout their lives."
"The various experiences in the real world that you have in your mind are actually false memories that people have forcibly implanted into your minds using virtual reality technology."
"Since you were born, you have actually never left the petri dish."
"Including now."
The man in the trench coat was worried that everyone would not be able to accept this reality, so he secretly glanced at Chengshuo and the others.
Seeing that everyone's expressions were as normal, he continued: "In fact, your consciousness has been put into the reincarnation space, but your body is still in the petri dish of the pseudo-human laboratory."
"As for what fake people are."
The man in the trench coat thought for a while and said: "You can understand them as mutated humans. In short, the current real world has been completely ruled by pseudo-people. The pseudo-people will spare no effort to hunt down, kill or trap all of us normal people. "
Before Cheng Sheng entered the reincarnation space, he had roughly learned the truth about all this from the Mother of Pain.
So after hearing what the man in the windbreaker said, he didn't show much surprise like others.
He said calmly: "So you came in with these blue pills just to wake up all of us reincarnators?"
"Just by taking the blue pill in your hand, we can wake up from our petri dishes in the real world?"
"you"
Seeing that Chengshuo had guessed the purpose of his visit with just a few words, the man in the trench coat said in disbelief: "Who are you?"
"Is it possible that you are also a member of our rebel organization?" The man in the windbreaker asked doubtfully: "But if so, why have I never seen you in the organization?"
"Rebel organization?" Chengshuo did not answer the trench coat man's question directly, but said happily: "So the real world is not completely ruled by pseudo-human beings yet? So far, there are still a small number of normal human beings who are silently resisting in secret Wearing a dummy?"
After asking a lot of questions, Chengshuo took the initiative to take a blue pill from the man in the trench coat before he could say anything.
He stared at the pill for a long time and said after a few seconds: "I don't know what this pill is made of."
"At the same time, I don't even know how this pill was brought into this 'horrible reincarnation space'."
"But one thing I can be sure of is that this pill does have the effect of enhancing people's mental strength."
Cheng Sheng explained the effect of the blue pill to everyone: "Although this pill can only increase a person's mental power for a moment."
"But one moment is enough. Just one moment is enough to ensure that you wake up in the real world."
In the ancient tomb palace.
Seeing Chengshuo, he could see the efficacy of the blue pill at a glance, and the man in the trench coat felt even more incredible.
He looked at Chengshuo and said, "Who are you? You are not a member of our rebel organization, but you know so many secrets."
"Where exactly are you from?"
"Hey," Chenghuo smiled, but still didn't respond directly to the man in the trench coat.
In front of all the reincarnations, he waved his hand and summoned a white beam of light, which enveloped everyone present.
When the man in the trench coat saw it, he was surprised and said, "This white light is..."
The man in camouflage uniform was also incredulous: "Senior Cheng, are you already?"
"Relax." The two of them were halfway through their words when Chengshuo took over and replied with a smile: "It's just as you thought: this is the white beam of light that dropped when the reincarnation space transported us."
As soon as Cheng Huo finished speaking, the light from the white light pillar gradually enveloped the entire ancient tomb palace.
Not long after.
When the white light gradually dissipated, everyone found that they had returned to the lounge in the reincarnation space.
At this moment, a new mission prompt came from everyone’s left wrist watch:
[The main mission·Terror of the Tomb has been completed! 】
[All survivors will receive 3,000 points as a reward! 】
"I'll go! Is this okay?" In the team, the man in camouflage uniform looked at the task prompt on his watch and was instantly dumbfounded.
The other senior team members also stared at their watches in confusion.
As for the newcomers in the team.
They still haven't figured out what all this is about.
who I am?
Where am I now?
What just happened?
