When the player and Wei Zixiao discovered that there was no one in the reading room, they did not feel the slightest disturbance in their hearts.
No one is right, so they can search for clues about the Heart of the Ocean everywhere in the reading room!
However, just now, when they were carefully looking through the ocean books, a player in the team was suddenly dragged away by a huge fish tail that appeared out of nowhere.
The fish tail is like a strong glue stuck to its body, and it cannot break free once it touches a person.
Everyone watched helplessly as the fish tail took the person away before their eyes until it disappeared into a bookshelf on one side.
As an old player who has experienced many games, Sister Xuan instantly analyzed that the cause of this incident must be that the player who was dragged away had done something to offend the ghost.
The player she caught couldn't find an answer, so Sister Xuan looked at the others and asked:
"You were just nearby, did anyone see clearly what Xizi did?"
Everyone looked at me and me, all looking confused.
The scarred man stepped forward and said:
"Sister Xuan, she was flipping through the book just like us. There can be no other abnormal movements."
Hearing this, Sister Xuan opened her mouth to ask the woman which book she was reading, but was interrupted by a voice.
"Stop looking for the Heart of the Ocean. Let's leave quickly while the ghosts on the boat haven't taken action. I don't want to die here with you all without knowing anything.
The ghost's motive for doing this is very clear. It is to warn us to stop our current behavior. It is giving us a choice. If we continue to look for it, it will definitely kill us all!
Although it is not clear why the ghost did not kill us directly, but let us go in such a strange way, but this is a way to survive, and we must seize this opportunity. "
Wei Zixiao was very smart and almost immediately guessed that the woman was captured by the ghost because of the Heart of the Deep Sea that the players were looking for.
However, he was unlikely to convince players.
Because the player's first task is to stay on the cruise ship and find the Heart of the Deep. If they are not found, they will be left in this world forever.
Considering the danger level of this world and their status as gangsters, their final fate is likely to be no bones left.
...Take the players whose bodies were cut into pieces for resisting the game as an example. Why was she killed directly by the game?
This is because she disobeyed Yugi at the beginning of the mission, and also because Yugi has the ability to execute players at will.
If it violates the trick game, there is a high probability that the player will be killed by it himself, without even having to take action from the ghosts in this world. This is a tacit fact among all the players who have witnessed those who defied the game die in various weird ways in front of them.
Moreover, even if the player was not killed by the game at that time, she would not be able to live easily in this world.
Players of tricky games have no choice. They can only use their best efforts to complete the task, even if it goes against their conscience and their own wishes, they still have to survive and return to the world where they live.
But how could the players headed by Sister Xuan tell Wei Zixiao their thoughts straightforwardly? Wei Zixiao didn't understand anything and could not empathize with them. And they need Wei Zixiao, the air master, to help them get the Heart of the Deep Sea, so at this moment, they can only use excuses to stabilize Wei Zixiao.
I saw Sister Xuan saying seriously to Wei Zixiao:
"You're right, we won't look any further. It's important to get off the ship now!"
"Sister Xuan?!" The thin woman next to the scarred man called her loudly, as if intending to wake up Sister Xuan's mind.
But she saw Sister Xuan calmly shaking her head at her, her eyes clear and firm.
Seeing this, the thin woman knew that Sister Xuan had her own considerations, so she fell silent and stopped making any sound.
Wei Zixiao, who noticed their interaction but didn't know the meaning behind it, thought that the players had woken up, so he gave up the idea of leaving alone and planned to leave the ship with Sister Xuan and others.
With one more airbender, he can better take care of him when he escapes later. This is Wei Zixiao's idea.
However, he didn't know that the group of people in front of him was not as simple as he thought.
"Which book was Xizi reading just now?" Sister Xuan looked at the scarred man, waiting for his answer.
Seeing her like this, Wei Zixiao frowned and asked:
"Didn't you say you won't look for me any further? Why do you still ask?"
Hearing this, Sister Xuan explained:
"We really don't plan to look for the Heart of the Deep Sea, but I suspect that the book Xizi read just now contains the weakness of the ghost on board. If we know it, it may be helpful for leaving."
"...But we shouldn't touch them. Don't you want to see all your companions captured by ghosts? One person has already set a negative example, so we should avoid danger!"
Wei Zixiao then pointed in the direction where Xizi disappeared with disapproval and said:
"Have you ever thought that that... ghost is still there and hasn't left?"
He originally wanted to say deformed ghosts. After all, he had seen with his own eyes that ghosts had a terrifying fish tail that did not exist on humans.
But if he was overheard by ghosts, wouldn't he be in for a disaster? In the end, Wei Zixiao had no choice but to hide the words, not daring to easily offend the ghost.
After listening to his words, Sister Xuan was silent for a few seconds, and then continued to say to the scarred man in a deep voice:
"Tell me which book Xizi was reading just now!"
Seeing that Sister Xuan was angry, the scarred man immediately pointed at a book called "The Disappearing Mermaid" and said, "This book is the book!"
Seeing the title of the book being pointed at, Sister Xuan's face relaxed and she said to Wei Zixiao, who was already faintly angry:
"The reason why Xizi was captured by the ghost cannot be because he touched this book. Think about it, so many of us have touched it before, it is impossible that only Xizi was noticed by the ghost. The reason why Xizi triggered the ghost to capture people is not this."
"So what if it's not this?... If you must find the Heart of the Deep Sea, then so be it. Let's go our separate ways and not interfere with each other."
After Wei Zixiao finished speaking, he actually planned to leave directly and stop listening to the players' nonsense.
In fact, as early as after Huanxiao left, when he saw the players racking their brains in various ways to inquire about the whereabouts of the Heart of the Deep Sea, he realized that the players valued the Heart of the Sea.
Wei Zixiao vaguely noticed that even if the players died next moment, they would quickly use the last moment of their lives to find the Heart of the Ocean, as if the Heart of the Ocean was more important than their lives.
It’s just an object. I really don’t understand why these people insist on taking risks on a cruise ship full of ghosts. They are simply a group of lunatics who don’t want their lives!
