A stream of liquid flowed into Qian Xiao's lungs along with his breathing. The uncomfortable feeling of swelling made Qian Xiao curl up into a ball like a shrimp. But more than ten seconds later, as the lungs were completely filled with fluid, the uncomfortable feeling quickly disappeared.
While Qian Xiao was foolishly waiting for death, he found that not only did his life show no signs of exhaustion, but he also had a vague feeling of becoming more and more energetic.
"Eh?"
Qian Xiao opened his mouth, and he was able to breathe in these light yellow liquids.
My mood became incredibly calm.
After attributing this situation to his strong nerves, he continued to swim upward.
In this boundless liquid, there is no need to worry about breathing, and physical energy seems to be replenished at any time. The only thing Qian Xiao had to do was to mechanically swim towards the water surface in his imagination.
In this world that is monotonous but not boring at all, as time goes by, his thinking gradually becomes lazy. When mechanical swimming movements become an instinct, Qian Xiao gradually falls into a deep sleep.
Time was still passing by, and at a certain moment, Qian Xiao, who was sleeping, felt that the waving movement of his arms was slightly blocked. His normal thinking ability slowly sprouted like a seedling emerging from the ground.
But the first thing he saw when he opened his eyes was a fiery red lizard man wrapped in some kind of transparent film, with his body curled up like a baby. After a moment of sluggishness, Qian Xiao waved his hands and feet in panic and backed away with all his strength.
His hands and feet that were waving desperately always hit something, making Qian Xiao unable to distance himself from the lizard man. He turned his head stiffly and looked at the thing that was hindering his movement. What he saw was another curled up lizard man.
He quickly turned his head in panic and looked in all directions.
In the entire world, there are only two colors: light yellow and fiery red. The densely packed lizardmen maintained the same crouched posture and floated quietly in this boundless ocean, filling every corner of Qian Xiao's sight.
Just when Qian Xiao's panic was about to explode, all the lizardmen opened their eyes at the same moment, and countless cold gazes focused on Qian Xiao.
"ah……"
"Stop shouting, aren't we just in the hotel lobby? There's no need to be so excited."
When Qian Xiao came back to his senses, he realized that he was standing at the stairwell of a hall decorated in both futuristic and retro styles. And Qiu Yu was looking at him two steps away.
"What happened just now?" Qian Xiao asked, wiping the cold sweat still oozing from his forehead.
Qiu Yu's answer was an understatement, "It's probably because we have just passed the last line of defense built by our opponent using his law ability."
Qian Xiao looked towards the stairs and found that no one else had come out yet, "Are they okay?"
"Probably not. After all, that design is mainly used to deal with me. If I am fine, it is even less likely that they will be fine."
As soon as Qiu Yu finished speaking, Li Ningfeng, Jiuwei, Qingqiu, Ordoño, the wooden stake man, and several other rescued people walked out of the void one by one. A few seconds later, Qiu Yan also walked out carrying the white man.
"It was so strange just now. I found myself turning into a piece of light, wandering back and forth in the universe. I finally saw another piece of light, and then suddenly came out..."
As soon as Li Ningfeng appeared, he loudly recounted his experience, while everyone else remained silent.
After Li Ningfeng finished speaking, Qiu Yu explained to the people who were staring at him fiercely, "I said that this time the opponent is a civilization that can only trigger the law ability to kill people. If the person whose law ability is triggered has The problem is that direct attack power can solve the problem at once. But a non-lethal ability like my perception spread is absolutely impossible to be killed by one's own ability. So they only want to kill such a person. The way is to create a scene where such a person can use up all his strength."
"This is why I, Brother Muzhuang, and Qiu Yan have always been able to use abilities. That's because they want us to get used to the use of abilities. When we encounter danger, we can continue to use law abilities endlessly until we die. So far. From this point, we can also see that excessive use of legal ability will kill people."
Qian Xiao thought of the boundless sea of lizard people, and always felt that something was wrong with Qiu Yu's words. The scene that gave him a strange feeling should not be that simple, but he couldn't think of what was wrong with the other party, so in the end he could only He said to Qiu Yu, "Then how did you solve it?"
"No need, I just walked out without encountering anything."
"It can't be that simple." Qiu Yan shook his head, "I didn't feel any danger just now. Maybe the scene just now was not used to kill us at all."
Qiu Yu immediately denied, "If it doesn't kill us, what else can it help us understand the power of the law? This is a life-and-death war."
"Then I have a few questions that I would like you to explain... let's forget it." After Qiu Yan said this inexplicably, he handed the white man into Qian Xiao's hands and walked towards the exit of the hotel first.
Qiu Yan's actions made Qian Xiao suddenly think of something after a moment of doubt. He whispered in Qiu Yu's ear, "Yes, Master, there are indeed a few small problems with your inference this time. For example, you You actually didn't ask Brother Muzhuang how he came out, as if you were afraid that asking him questions would lead to loopholes in your reasoning. You also said that aliens consume energy to deal with us. Since what just happened is In order to deal with you people who have no ability to attack, why bring us along? Why not concentrate on dealing with you. In addition, since we came out of the space where we were hunted by the brain, we have not been attacked again. According to you As I said, the last line of defense I just experienced was designed for people like you who have no attack capabilities. Didn’t it mean that during the entire subsequent process, the other party never thought of dealing with the rest of us? Also, I believe what you said earlier, they Because they don’t have any attack power, the only way to kill people is to habitually trigger the law ability to make us commit suicide. Maybe this is true at the beginning, but after playing with us for so long, they should have learned how to trigger a useful ability to kill other people. Humans are a pretty good method. After all, monkeys can learn to use knives to kill people. It is impossible for a civilization’s wisdom to not learn other ways to kill people... But... these won’t involve the game between you and the other civilization, right? In this case, I will also learn from the goddess, so I won’t ask anymore.”
Qian Xiao carried the white man on his back and chased after the others who had almost reached the door of the hotel.
Facing Qian Xiao's long list of questions, Qiu Yu just sighed tiredly, then shook his head at Jiuwei, who had been paying attention to him, and looked at the group of people standing in front of the revolving door of the hotel, but did not go out. Walked over.
Originally, Qiu Yu thought that they were standing at the door because they couldn't get out or encountered something strange. He even considered the possibility that the law ability attack was extended here.
But when he stood at the door and looked outside through the glass, he realized that what prevented others from going out was actually the contrast between the weird and the normal reality - outside the door was an extremely normal street. There is a constant flow of traffic. An old woman in a mink coat walked leisurely with a large black dog. Two scantily clad fashion girls screamed and stepped aside as they passed the big dog. The delivery boy used thrilling movements to weave left and right in the traffic...
It took a full minute for Li Ningfeng to adapt to the normal world. "We won another round. Escaping from the restricted area is not as difficult as imagined."
With that said, Li Ningfeng opened the door and wanted to go out. But he felt someone press his shoulder, and when he looked back, he found Qiu Yan shaking his head slightly at him.
In this situation, both Qian Xiao and Qiu Yu had a strong sense of immediacy, as if they were back to the time when they were teaching novices.
Because Li Ningfeng's actions were stopped by Qiu Yan, the few people who were rescued were the first to push the door open and walk outside.
"I've had enough of that hellish place, now I'm free."
"Is this what you call victory? What happens next?"
"Which country is this? You have to ask the embassy for help."
This is the reaction of newcomers who have not participated in novice tutorials and have not received instructions from supervisors about this game. They have been directly exchanged into the game. Even if they experience the weirdest things, it is difficult for them to completely break away from the thinking that belongs to the conventional world.
"It seems fine." Qian Xiao whispered.
"hold on."
Kyuubi has always been very patient. When Qiu Yan stopped Li Ningfeng, he understood Qiu Yan's intention - since he had saved these people, it was only fair to use them to explore the way when the situation was unclear.
But although these people who were rescued were novices in this game, they were not novices in human society. After going out, they saw that Qiu Yu and his party had not walked out of the hotel door. They were vaguely aware that something might be wrong, and they did not go further. They just gathered outside the door in tacit understanding and looked back.
"Let's go, maybe we will win if we get out." Li Ningfeng opened the door again and wanted to go out.
"The rule is that as long as someone leaves the restricted area, it means victory. If this hotel was the so-called restricted area, we would have won the moment they left."
Qiu Yu's words made Li Ningfeng's action of pushing the door freeze in mid-air, "Didn't you say that this game must continue after we go out?"
Qian Xiaoye said anxiously, "Didn't you just say that the place we passed was the last line of defense for the construction of legal capabilities?"
"I also think the game should be over, but the facts are before our eyes." Qiu Yu smiled and waved to those who were looking at him outside the door, "But they did go out, but the victory has not come yet..."
