After completing the mission, the Scarecrow of Doom was recalled by Su Lin and reattached with the golden paper charm.
Su Lin gently picked it up and sealed it in the dark cuff again.
As long as he completes this mission and starts a competition with Beibei's team, he can finally return to the real world. Thinking of his sister who is in high school and his father who is sick in bed, Su Lin is more determined to go back.
The moment he stepped onto the surface, a drizzle suddenly began to fall in the sky, and the silvery drizzle lightly dotted on his body, making the whole weather seem particularly cool.
After Sulin walked not far, he suddenly received a prompt message from the closed-loop world and the corresponding change in the ranking of Easter eggs.
The order of changes in the entire ranking is not big. Although Tianchu team lost one teammate, it still ranked first. Su Lin clicked on the rankings and looked at them one by one. He found that Tianchu team seemed to have recruited new members.
It seems that Beibei's team, like their Lei Xuan team, did not gather enough team members.
But the difference is that because the easter egg was robbed, the ranking of Lei Xuan's team dropped a few places.
Su Lin continued to scroll down the information and found that there was a line of red font marked at the bottom of the ranking list:
All contestants in the Closed Loop World are asked to gather in the circular space of the underground tunnel before midnight.
The remaining players who have not completed the team competition game as of now will play the game together in the circular open space.
Note: Violence is prohibited for any creature within the circular clearing!
In this way, as long as he re-enters the previous ring-shaped clearing before Youshi, he does not need to meet up with Fu Honglei and the others at Yaowang Valley.
Because this message was released to all surviving contestants in the closed-loop world, Fu Honglei and Lu Xueyan were naturally included.
As Su Lin walked farther and farther, familiar scenes slowly emerged in his memory. First, he was in the tavern before entering the psychedelic forest, with the sign "Three Bowls Not Entering the Forest" still fluttering in the wind.
Then there was the dark path to unlock the cemetery. Stepping on it with the faint drizzle, it was like hearing the bell of the old man Qihuang again. I saw the deaf-mute old man gesticulating non-stop, unable to tell where the road was. Where.
The road is at your feet, extending all the way out, and the two-story hotel in your memory suddenly reappears.
Like some kind of fateful encounter, when Su Lin set foot in that hotel again, the drizzle in the sky stopped.
It was still the familiar waiter in my memory: "Sir, do you want to work as a professional or stay in a hotel?"
Seeing Su Lin walking in ragged clothes, the other party didn't mean to look down on him at all. He hurriedly wiped the tables and chairs with a rag, asked Su Lin to sit down, and brought a bowl of hot tea.
"Boy, I'm looking for someone! Has there ever been a woman here?" Su Linbi drew a picture of Xue Dongluo. He believed that such a beautiful girl would not be easily forgotten if she had seen her.
"Sir, I have never seen the person you are talking about, but a strange person has come here in the past two days. This person is very old, has many wrinkles on his face, and has the aura of a warrior who has been on the battlefield all year round."
Unfortunately, there were too many people coming and going in the store. If the waiter could remember Su Lin, he would also remember that the old man was Xue Rengui who had previously given Su Lin the map outside the city.
Perhaps it was because of the rain today that the shop was obviously not as popular as before. Seeing that the waiter had no other customers to greet, Su Lin activated his sense of ownership and took the initiative to take down a bench and pass it to the waiter.
The waiter took another tea bowl from the table next to him. He didn't care about the unpaid guest in front of him. Instead, he admired the flowers and plants left in the rain outside and chatted with Su Lin.
After experiencing so much fighting and killing, Su Lin looked at the small shop in front of him and listened to the waiter's endless talk. He suddenly felt that one person, one restaurant and one world, such a comfortable life seemed great, without those things. Fighting and killing eliminates unnecessary quarrels.
He looked at the iron rod placed in front of the door, and suddenly felt that such a presence disturbed the scenery in front of him.
But the scene before him was just a moment of youthful beauty. In the end, Sulin did not forget his purpose of returning to the hotel, and had to return to the bloody life again.
This is what he and his entire squad have to face. In other words, this is also part of my life.
Su Lin thought a lot for a moment. He lowered his head, raised it again, and asked in a curious and vicissitudes of tone: "Can you tell me about that strange person?"
"This incident started three days ago. At that time, it was just like today, and the weather was rainy. However, acid rain and even heavy rain often occur near our hotel, so such ordinary weather is not surprising.
"But what's strange is that it was a dark night, it was very late, and there seemed to be no light around. There was only an orange kerosene lamp in our small shop that was lit outside the shop to illuminate the passers-by.
“At that time, I was packing up and preparing to close the shop, but at this moment there was a sudden burst of bright lightning in the distant sky.
"Faintly, from the high altitude, you can see several silver lightnings tearing there like lizard tails, and at the end of the tearing, there seems to be a tall woman crying and shouting, but the thunder in the sky It was so loud I didn’t hear anything.”
Su Lin vaguely felt that the other party was telling a fantasy novel, but he still listened patiently in order to get Xue Dongluo's information.
Because he didn't know whether it would be expensive to search for a hotel rashly and be kicked out of the hotel by the store or the store's clerk, thus losing the qualification to enter the hotel. This would be a bit of a loss.
Perhaps it was because the rain was too cold and there was a little bit of wind chill. Su Lin covered his mouth and coughed twice, signaling the other party to continue.
"I think my eyesight may have been dazzled. Just as I was about to close the door, a tall woman suddenly appeared in front of the door. Her figure was similar to the figure you described.
"No, to be precise, she is similar to the girl in the sky that I saw when there was a thunder. But at this moment, her appearance is terrible, especially her face seems to be wrapped in a whole piece of withered black tree bark.
"And from time to time, there would be a few small lizard-like things on her body burrowing in her mouth and nose. At that time, I thought she was dead and was about to report it to the police. Unexpectedly, the person It suddenly came to life like a corpse.
After she came back to life, she walked towards me with a pale face, leaned down and said something in my ear, which scared me a lot. Guest, can you guess what she said? "
Su Lin rolled his eyes at him. He was not a divination master, so he had no ability to judge people's thoughts.
Before he could say anything, the waiter said to Su Lin impatiently: "The woman actually said, waiter, I want to stay in a hotel, and this person has paid for the hotel."
"She asked me to find someone, and that person was the old man on the battlefield I mentioned earlier. After I arranged her into room A on the second floor, something even more magical happened. What do you think it is?"
Su Lin put his hands on his face and lowered his head again. To be honest, how could he have guessed it?
"Ever since the woman entered the room, the room number A on the second floor disappeared out of thin air."
