There was no real feeling at the beginning, nor did the arcade machine light up.
Li Wu's right hand holding the flame passed directly through the arcade console and reached into the machine.
Immediately afterwards, the entire arcade machine flickered like an old-fashioned TV with poor signal contact. When Li Wu retracted his hand, beating snowflakes appeared from the bottom, sweeping across the entire machine, and its casing was damaged wherever it passed. Deformed and distorted, like a projection reflected in a distorting mirror.
Hoshikawa pulled him back to the counter and summoned Guillotine. This move was like throwing a catfish into a goldfish bowl, directly occupying a large area of the already narrow space. The ax handle pushed the cowboy model behind the counter. I have to fall to the sky.
"Is the enemy about to appear? Li Wutong..." She suddenly lost her words, "Why are you running away?"
"I haven't moved." Li Wu looked around, "It's because the distance between us has been widened. No, it should be said that the room has become bigger."
Originally, they were in the upper left corner of the house next to the service desk, but at some point, a distance suddenly appeared between them and the service desk.
Similarly, the arcade room that was originally close to each other is also much wider. If it could only accommodate one arm, it can now accommodate three fat people.
"The ceiling is also moving away from us... Let's go out first and then talk."
Li Wu raised his head and glanced at the ceiling. The clearly visible mottled marks were now slightly blurred, but the light in the room became brighter at this moment, as if the lingering chandelier suddenly turned into a small sun.
However, as if they were aware of the two people's intention to leave, the next moment, the room was like a shriveled balloon. One day, it was suddenly picked up by a giant and blown into it. It expanded at a violent speed, almost Just when Li Wu finished speaking, the surge had been completed simultaneously.
What now appears in front of them is a vast field the size of two football fields. Except for the dark green carpet that is still laid under the feet and extends as the room expands, the original indoor layout, arcade machines, and services are almost unrecognizable. The desk and other miscellaneous items were scattered around the changed room. The original chandelier now provided almost as much light intensity as the sun during the day, making this underground arcade feel like it was outdoors.
If you think of the new pitch as a super-double football pitch, the two players are now exactly in the middle of their respective halves, facing each other.
The ceiling has been raised to a fairly high point, and from this distance one can almost only see a patch of white. Likewise, the four thick walls have become like four towering giants.
Yes, four walls, the door they entered through has disappeared.
Xingchuan seemed to want to join up first, and she ran towards Li Wu.
"Wait a moment!"
However, from his perspective, the distance between the two did not shrink.
Realizing what this meant, Li Wu quickly stopped him - in fact, Xingchuan Aoi had already reacted and stopped before he spoke.
"Did you separate us on purpose?"
Just when Li Wu wanted to ask Xingchuan to fire a few shots, a new change happened.
He heard a burst of music that was quite familiar to him.
"——Well——SE——GA——"
"Why does your arcade machine that appears in Urban Tales use the startup sound effect of a Sega game console? There must be a copyright issue!"
Li Wu couldn't help shouting.
However, the existence that created all this obviously did not care about this small problem, and soon a line of text appeared in the air accompanied by music:
PUSH START BUTTON
A small button made of white pixels also appeared below, and on the right was a red arrow, shaking left and right pointing to the button.
"Classmate Li Wu! A line of text appears here that looks a bit like the interface before starting the game! Do you want to click it? Click it?"
"Are you the type of person who wants to push the big red button when you see it?!"
"Ah, your voice is so clear."
From this distance, even if both of them have better hearing than ordinary people, they still need to at least raise their volume slightly, but just now it was as if they were having a conversation next to them.
"Did the sound be transmitted? The design is quite user-friendly. But what if I never press the start button?"
Li Wu looked at the button in front of him unmoved.
The red arrow shook more and more urgently, shaking out the afterimage like a twitch.
Li Wu laughed out loud.
The arrow was wilted and bent.
Li Wu is ruthless.
"You look so pathetic. You are a game that no one can play."
Xingchuan innocently replenished his sword.
Arrow was furious.
At least that's what you'd expect from the outside, as it grew thicker and larger, then rolled and hit the start button.
"Is this okay? You are forcing guests to consume."
After an electronic sound was heard, a shadow was cast on the ground.
Looking up, what comes into view is a patchwork of abstract lines.
Just like a child's scribbling, the colorful lines were roughly drawn together and woven into a mess, but if you look carefully, you can vaguely see regular geometric figures.
It's like there's a conflict between sensibility and reason, making it dizzying and even nauseating.
In Li Wu's eyes, in the center of the pile of lines, there was a line of small words looming:
【boss】
Lines similar to lime lines also appeared on the ground, extending straight out, eight vertically and eight horizontally, eventually dividing the entire site into sixty-four large squares.
"He finally showed up! Are you going to defeat that guy?"
The front part of the ax-shaped staff in Xingchuan's hand had already lit up with white light. She aimed at the piece of art in the air that was too early for human beings and fired a magic bullet.
This time she did not accumulate power, so the momentum was not as big as the time when she renovated the street. The magic bullet was like a meteor flying in the opposite direction, dragging its tail flame and hitting the line monster.
There was no explosion. The ocean of lines made waves as if a huge boulder had been thrown into it. They rolled and rearranged, and finally actually showed a regular hexagon-like figure.
Then, a line of huge black fonts appeared in the air in a bird's eye view:
[Before the beginning and the end disappear into nothingness, awaken the end thing]
【1-1】
"Is this an announcement that the game has officially started? Is that line of text a hint?"
The attack failed, but Xingchuan was not discouraged. She asked her companions: "Classmate Li Wu, what do you think?"
Then, she heard the other party’s loud reminder: “Get out of the way!”
Get out of the way? Why get out of the way? There was no premonition of an coming attack, and no danger was perceived.
Before she could figure out the answer to this question, her body was already moving.
