A few breaths after the gunshot, Chujiu came back to his senses from the shock of falling from the clouds.
She had never had such a thrilling experience.
At this moment, she seemed to see a clown walking on a tightrope in her eyes. Not only did he have no fear, but he grinned at the God of Death in the abyss, full of mockery.
This guy played with Death!
Go crazy.
No matter how calm Chujiu was, he couldn't hold back the excitement and curiosity in his heart at this moment. He asked very quickly: "You...you...you already knew there was something wrong with this gun?"
She watched two people die under this gun with her own eyes, but was there something wrong with the one in their cage?
Ji Xun smiled and shook his head, denying this statement: "No. The gun is fine."
Chujiu also felt that it was not the problem with the gun, "Then...why can you fire six shots?"
"The rules of the game are that you can only shoot one person, but they don't say you can only shoot yourself once."
The corners of Ji Xun's mouth raised slightly, as if he was still immersed in the exciting aftertaste of the roulette game.
"And I've said before that the factors that influence the level are not just the space rules themselves."
As he spoke, he glanced meaningfully at the iron thorn above his head.
Time has passed, but the iron thorn has not fallen.
That means they passed the level.
Both made it through the game alive.
He also passed the level in a way that the other two cage players did not choose.
In a blink of an eye, he glanced at the pair of eyes full of curiosity on the opposite side of Chujiu. Ji Xun turned to look at the mechanical clown who was standing blankly on the spot, and asked meaningfully: "Really, Mr. Clown?"
But the clown didn't respond and watched quietly, but it seemed that the smile on its face was getting more and more weird.
...
At this moment, endless question marks popped up in Chujiu, and they just wanted to know what happened.
He had a very good impression of his teammate, so Ji Xun was naturally not stingy with his words.
Now that he has cleared the level, he has understood everything.
He talked eloquently: "If it were just a simple roulette killing game, how boring it would be... It would appear that the planner is very incompetent. How could such a sophisticated layout have such an ordinary ending."
"..."
Chujiu heard this and agreed.
This extra-dimensional space is the most exquisite extra-dimensional space she has ever experienced.
If you can get out of the last level just by killing people, it seems... the level has dropped instantly, and it is not worthy of the previous brilliant layout.
This is what the guy opposite said before.
But how did he know there was something wrong with this gun?
Ji Xun smiled mysteriously and slowly revealed the truth: "Do you still remember that sentence, "When you are staring into the abyss, the abyss is also staring at you"? This is actually an obvious enough reminder that when you stare at the evil of human nature, the evil will in turn stare into your heart and reveal your truest self. "
Chujiu suddenly said: "You mean...that card?"
She suddenly realized that they had killed the [Shadow Demon] before and revealed a card.
They all guessed that this was the clue to the final level.
Use it now!
Eh... No, it's useless!
What do these two incomprehensible words have to do with customs clearance?
This guy shot himself six times in the head!
He must have discovered something else to dare to bet like this.
Ji Xun explained: "When I entered the mirror room before, I had a rough guess. So when I entered the iron cage and saw the layout, I guessed a few more. After listening to the rules of the roulette game, I completely guessed the layout of the person. idea."
As he spoke, he grinned, his eyes sparkling with enthusiasm: "So this final level, what I really want to test is never the luck of the roulette wheel. Nothing can be tested more profoundly than testing human nature."
The ninth day of the lunar month: "..."
I listened to these words, but I didn't think she understood them.
She didn't say anything because it would have made her feel stupid.
After a pause, Ji Xuncai continued: "The essence of the extradimensional space is to pass the test and get a reward. The purpose of the level is to screen some people who meet the designer's directional characteristics, so that they can pass the level and get the final reward. From the previous [Break Wall], [Witch], [Gambler], [Shadow Demon], and now the clown game... Eventually you will find that those who pass must have some of the following qualities: desire restraint, courage, wisdom , firm belief, and maybe...kindness. Of course, this space is special because it also tests some special things, such as: gambler's mentality, cunning, madness, and paranoia. Only adventurers who meet all the above characteristics, Only then can we gain final recognition.”
After a pause, he continued: "And another sentence: "Before dawn comes, someone must illuminate the darkness." The designer gave the final reminder that the person who screens the space should be the person who can make people see the light in the endless darkness. So from the very beginning, the moment whoever raises his gun and aims at his companions, he is actually out. Teammates cannot die, so there is only one choice left..."
Shoot yourself!
Only then did Chujiu realize the profound meaning of these two sentences.
That's why this guy shot himself six times!
There must be some other factors involved. She didn't think about it for a while. Instead, she thought of something else and wanted to ask: "Then before..."
Ji Xun didn't wait for her to finish, and said directly: "Are you going to ask the old servant before if he could pass even if he shot you several times?"
He asked himself and answered: "No, it's impossible. He could get out alive, but he didn't clear the level. The greatest respect for the planner is to follow the rules of the game and clear the game. We have skipped some small steps along the way. Level, but it doesn't matter. And the master and servant appeared here directly, obviously taking a shortcut. They should have some special information in their hands. It was brought in from outside, not discovered by themselves in the space. No With those qualities, he will never be able to get the ultimate reward no matter what.”
It’s okay to play through the game with bugs, but you will lose some necessary clues and game experience.
You can get some rewards for completing the game, but not all.
This is inevitable.
"..."
On the ninth day of the lunar month, he was thoughtful.
Ji Xun also agreed: "That guy is actually very smart, and he obviously realized this, so he didn't take the gun until the last moment. But even if he guessed it, he would not dare to gamble. Die. If it is gone, everything is really lost. If it were him, he might hesitate. After all, power and status are also shackles in some aspects, which will make people lose their heart to take risks. This is destined by fate, It’s not about wisdom or anything.”
...
After listening to Ji Xun sorting out and explaining all the plots of the levels, Chujiu felt that the mixed thoughts in his mind became clear.
However, how could a normal person shoot himself six times based on these two clues?
Chujiu couldn't help but ask: "This is all your speculation. What if you made a wrong bet just now?"
"If you lose the bet, you will die."
Ji Xun responded lightly.
His tone was calm, as if he was not talking about his own life or death.
Immediately, the face under the gas mask smiled brightly.
He looked at the mechanical clown, as if he saw himself in the mirror.
After a pause, Ji Xuncai said again in a low voice: "For me... the outcome of this kind of gamble is more attractive than death."
These exquisite levels allowed him to experience the long-lost, morbid, ultimate pleasure of reaching intracranial orgasm!
"..."
Having seen him twice, Chujiu was used to it. She knew that this guy seemed to be in that conceited and crazy state again.
"The same is true for it."
As if he noticed something looking over at him in the darkness, Ji Xun said again: "I made the wrong bet, I'll die! But it lost! If I didn't die, neither of us would win! It wouldn't let itself lose." !”
Chujiu didn't know why: "It?"
Ji Xun smiled brightly: "That's right. Another way to describe it is...the designer of space? Or the will of space? The big boss of the final level? Anyway, that's what it means."
...
Ji Xun asked again: "Do you know why I am saying this now?"
Chujiu originally wanted to say: Didn’t you tell me?
But she immediately understood what this meant and asked, "Why?"
Ji Xun smiled slightly: "Because, that guy has been spying in the shadows."
Chujiu was slightly startled and looked around: "But... if you say it like this, will it happen?"
Ji Xun shook his head: "That's what I told him. Solving a perfect puzzle is a pleasant experience. As a level designer, if someone praises his levels, he can understand the exquisiteness of those designs. This is a hundred times more satisfying than killing and teasing players who don’t experience the thrill of a level at all.”
On the ninth day of the lunar month, my head was filled with black threads, and I automatically realized in my heart: Why do you feel like the stupid player you are talking about is me?
There was a pause.
Ji Xun looked at the weird mechanical clown again and asked for the second time: "Really, Mr. Clown?"
This time, the Joker responded, "Yes, adventurer."
The corners of its already exaggerated mouth raised into a smile that seemed to separate the entire face, and then said: "Congratulations, you have completed the test."
Ji Xun also seemed to have met his opponent and responded: "Thank you. It was a very pleasant experience."
The iron cage slowly opened.
The clown smiled.
Smiling and smiling, that smile gradually solidified.
The already colorful paint color quickly dimmed, as if a person lost his life when he was about to die, and suddenly became eclipsed.
The mission of the mechanical clown ends here.
At the last moment, it said the second sentence on the card: "Before dawn comes, someone must illuminate the darkness."
It was as if I heard a whisper from ancient times.
Ji Xun listened silently and thought about it seriously.
He looked at the dead mechanical clown without moving for a long time.
.......
At this time, enlightenment reappeared.
"You heard the description of darkness in the whispers from the abyss, and you touched the 'miracle'."
Ji Xun was thoughtful, looking at the ordinary black card he had obtained before.
By this time, it had changed.
It turned out that the catastrophic objects recorded in the file were already in his hands.
This is a gray playing card.
