Chapter 187 Does Ping An Sanatorium Sound Familiar?...
Chapter 186
Hearing this, Huang "Mao" couldn't help but be refreshed and said:
"Ah, yes! I remember you before, whether you destroy the peace sanatorium built by the 05 spiritual world, or help the sanatorium control other high-risk patients, you can complete the task! So we have to continue this plan, right?"
Luce was startled at first, then fell into deep thought.
Seconds later, a look of approval appeared on his face, he raised his head and said, "I see, I understand your thinking, as long as the dynamic balance between the two forces in this dungeon is disrupted, the If God’s plan cannot be realized, the main quest can be completed, right?”
"Yes, that was the plan before."
Wen Jianyan nodded approvingly.
"..."
,Before?
After keenly capturing the key words in the other party's words, Su Cheng couldn't help but be stunned for two seconds. As the one who knows Wen Jianyan's behavior best, an ominous premonition suddenly crossed his mind.
It always feels like this guy is playing some bad idea...
"Don't worry, if the method is unsuccessful, it will still return to the original plan." Wen Jianyan noticed Su Cheng's sudden change in expression, and comforted her in a soft voice.
Su Cheng: "..."
[Integrity First] Live Room:
"Laughing to death, I don't feel comforted at all."
"Hahahahahaha Su Xiaocheng: If you have no love, you know that you are going to make trouble."
"Teammate, dangerous!"
"Huh? You changed your mind and aren't going to do this anymore?"
Luce asked suspiciously.
From his point of view, although the two options just proposed are not low in difficulty, they are highly feasible and very consistent with the logic chain of the entire copy.
Besides, are there any other options?
He is not out.
Luce couldn't help but ask: "Then what is your current law?"
Wen Jianyan didn't answer the question directly, he just changed the subject lightly:
"After the final main quest is completed, you will get a platinum trophy. At the same time, the dungeon is completely closed and cannot be opened again, right?"
The rest nodded.
It is so.
This is common sense in the Nightmare Live Room, even a rookie who has only gone through the dungeon once knows it.
Wen Jianyan: "You haven't done it before. Is this logic reversed?"
"?"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, not understanding the meaning of Wen Jianyan's words.
Su Cheng frowned: "What do you mean?"
"It means that the dungeon was not closed because the anchor gave a platinum reward, but because it had to be closed, so the anchor will be awarded a platinum trophy."
"..."
In an instant, the air was silent for a moment.
Everyone "exposed" the god of astonishment, obviously, they had never considered this before.
As the contracted anchors of the Nightmare Live Room, their main purpose for entering the dungeon is to complete the task, earn points, and leave the dungeon so that they can live longer. Maybe they can save enough points to redeem their soul cancellation coupons in one day.
Even many senior anchors have never made a platinum achievement after so many dungeons.
Some anchors will always seek advantages and avoid disadvantages during the dungeon, not to mention actively activate the ultimate main quest - you must know that it is not only more difficult, but if it fails, even if the conditions for leaving the dungeon are met, it will die directly.
Therefore, some of its anchors have not tried to think about what "platinum achievement" means.
And Wen Jianyan is the exact opposite of them. He may have made more platinum achievements than many senior anchors combined.
It is precisely because he has experienced more that this feeling is clearer and stronger with each instance.
In the [German Middle School] dungeon, returning the mirror fragments to their original places means that the campus curse cannot be activated, and the dungeon is completely closed. Long death, the dungeon is completely closed, and the dungeon of [Dream Amusement Park] ends with the disappearance of energy and the fire of the park.
Let Wen Jianyan confirm that what he guessed was in the dungeon [Antai Community]. Even though he never tried to start the ultimate main quest, he still won the platinum trophy in the end - the reason given by Nightmare is that he The degree of exploration is the highest, so get the platinum trophy.
But the situation is that, Po Wen died, the suppressed evil spirit fragments recovered, and it was impossible for the dungeon to be opened again.
In this regard, Nightmare's attitude is very ambiguous.
It has a shocking "sex" setting that the anchor will die if he does not complete the "Ultimate Main Quest". At the same time, after the anchor has played the platinum trophy, the difficulty of a copy of the anchor will be increased, so that the anchor who has played the platinum trophy will receive Survival becomes more difficult.
But in the same way, it will also give high rewards to the streamers who hit the platinum trophy.
Naturally, these can be explained by "improving the effect of the program" or "improving the viewing experience of the audience".
But... Wen Jianyan always felt that the "nightmare" was not happy to see it happen.
This is what he realized in the [Fantasy Amusement Park] copy.
Good or bad luck is naturally metaphysics, but in the game of luck in the amusement park, the worst option is drawn every time... something is wrong.
It's as if the drop rate has been dimmed in the background.
Perhaps... his misfortune was not some kind of metaphysics, but the real malice that stemmed from the Nightmare Live Room system.
"If we think in this direction, we should be able to understand why the dungeon's completion prompt for the main quest is so vague." Wen Jianyan.
Obviously, in this copy, there are many ways to make it impossible to reopen.
Therefore, the reminder of the copy only tells the anchors the real structure of the copy, that is, how to use this information is up to them.
Since the ultimate mainline quest and the permanently closed copy are marked, their thinking can be more open.
"Then what do you mean... we should not go to how to restore the balance now, or break the balance, but think about how to destroy the entire dungeon?"
Luce's mouth slowly opened, and there was no better adjective to describe the god on his face other than sluggishness.
He is a senior anchor. He has completed not ten or at least ten dungeons. Although it is very dangerous to complete the ultimate main quest, but...
When this matter is the same as destroying the entire dungeon, it's still a bit... too much for him.
It's a path that has never been set before!
[Integrity First] Live Room:
"Pinch mom...you'll know!"
"Go, it's really getting interesting!"
"! I've never seen the anchor spread out in this direction, and they are going to destroy the entire dungeon when they come up!!! Bull!"
"Bingo!"
Wen Jianyan snapped his fingers.
Unfortunately, his relaxed and playful attitude did not make the atmosphere on the field any signs of easing.
"Cough," he Shen Yizheng, "In short, although our degree has been pushed to the present, how this God-building plan works is still a mystery, even for those external "creators" who have already The completed [Ping An Sanatorium] has become a completely closed black box."
The so-called black box is a theoretical term, which refers to a black box that can only observe its input and output results after the construction is completed, but cannot detect its internal structure.
That is to say, the people who created the "Peace Sanatorium" only know to throw away the test items and wait for the appearance of the gods. As for what will happen in the middle, they may not know.
This is beyond the realm of human knowledge.
"Like this one."
Then, Wen Jianyan took out the black box from the bag and showed it to Luce.
Luce was startled: "This is...?"
"The reward for the epic hidden item quest." Wen Jianyan said without concealment.
The other party was taken aback: "Huh?"
This dark thing is an epic prop
"To be precise, the epic-level props are in the box," Wen Jianyan shook the box, and a faint sound could be heard inside. He sighed, "Unfortunately, I haven't found a way to open it yet."
"Get up, as a senior anchor, you should know that the copy and the current world are inextricably linked, right?"
Wen Jianyan suddenly changed the subject.
Luce was stunned for a moment. Although he couldn't keep up with the other party's jumpy thinking, he nodded solemnly: "I have heard of this theory."
Just like the name of the live broadcast room, the copy in "Nightmare" is like an endless nightmare. Although it is terrifying, weird, full of darkness and danger, it is also like a nightmare, with the shadow of the world, It seems to be built with this as a real framework.
"So, do you think this copy is a little weird?" Wen Jianyan blinked and added, "In terms of technology and humanities."
Luce was taken aback: "Are you...a sense of the times?"
"yes."
Wen Jianyan nodded.
According to the humanities, it is obvious that the [Ping An Sanatorium] should be a copy from a long time ago, whether it is the identification of "'sex" inversion" or "intellectual disability", including the religious atmosphere that is so strong that it cannot be dissipated, and outdated. , the almost cruel treatment method can feel its strong sense of the times.
However, the experience in the laboratory and the mental brain, the artificial mental illness, and the so-called "maternal body" all carry a sense of technology beyond the times, just like the existence of science fiction that can be developed by human beings in the future.
This sense of contradiction permeates every corner of the copy.
Of course, there are ghosts and ghosts in other dungeons that do not exist in the present world, which can be attributed to the processing of nightmares.
However, this dungeon is different from other dungeons. The entire [Safe Sanatorium] is built in the spiritual world of No. 05, which is a real low-dimensional world-even the artistic processing of the Nightmare Live Room cannot change this fundamental dungeon. frame.
"If, just if, as guessed, each copy has its own prototype and era background," Wen Jianyan narrowed her eyes and said slowly, "Then the same is true for this copy."
That is, in an almost medieval background, they came up with a set from the future-
Or, a higher-dimensional technology system.
"You, whose help did they get?"
Wen Jianyan asked the crowd softly.
"..."
There was silence in the arena.
They understood Wen Jianyan's words, because each of his theories started from the information they already knew about the Nightmare Live Room and the dungeon, and every logic was impeccable, but...
In a sense, they can't understand what the other party is saying at all.
This has completely surpassed the content of the copy of [Peace Sanatorium], but has risen directly to another angle that they have never been exposed to at all.
A more terrifying angle that is closely related to the "Nightmare Live Room".
When everyone's brain crashed, it was Huang "Mao" who made a dry voice, breaking the silence:
"..., it won't be like that, you mean, this copy is also similar to the existence of those eyes?"
Wen Jianyan smiled, he raised his hand and rubbed Huang Mao's head, and praised, "Ruzi can be taught."
"..."
Although his body was numb from being frightened by his own elephant, after receiving the praise from the other party, Huang "Mao"'s face was still red involuntarily, and he couldn't help showing a shy expression.
He murmured, "Thank you, thank you."
In fact, the reason why Wen Jianyan came to this conclusion is precisely because of the previous copy.
Unlike other patients, the "Ping An Sanatorium" is not the incarnation of the spiritual world of No. 05. It is just the source of energy supply. The architect of the copy is located outside the entire copy and is a higher-dimensional existence. Well-designed chessboard, No. 05 is just one of the pawns.
This style of conduct...
Does it sound familiar?
Meat grinders designed by higher-dimensional beings are treated as "shards" of energy supply, and wheels that never end.
Even the exact same Ouroboros mark.
However, the only difference is that "Safe Sanatorium" and "Fantasy Amusement Park" are more like a poor and rough semi-finished product.
Although it is also the world inside and outside, it is difficult to control the alternations and alternations. Although the high-risk patients in it are controlled for part of the time, the possibility of derailment is "sex", and the victims are far less docile and loyal. .
[Ping An Sanatorium] are those "Ability Gods" from higher dimensional worlds. However, unlike the [Dream Amusement Park], which is completely self-contained and operates independently, it is more like an experiment, or an unfinished 's work is a failed attempt for them.
Therefore, compared to the last one that had no background at all, like an amusement park that was completely independent of the world, the sanatorium was much rougher.
In other words... the other party will "exposed" more.
Once this opportunity is missed, it will be difficult to appear again.
Wen Jianyan held the dark, boxy box in one hand, and asked Ruth, who was still running, "Before you, you had some fragmentary impressions of the time when you were in a coma, like It's like being soaked in a petri dish, right?"
Luce nodded consciously.
Wen Jianyan: "remember carefully, during that time, haven't you seen anything similar?"
"..."
Luce's eyes fell on the black box in Wen Jianyan's hand, and his brows were slightly wrinkled, as if trying to sort out his increasingly chaotic mind, looking for any useful information in those broken fragments.
Wen Jianyan looked at Luce and waited patiently.
If, as he guessed, all of them were trapped in the spiritual world constructed by No. 05's brain, then the "illusion" that Luce had when he was on the verge of death might will be closer to the truth of the entire copy than any of them.
The epic hidden items in the dungeon are often secretly related to the key "sex" of the dungeon.
That is... If the props in this box really come from the "outside", then only Luce may have seen its true content.
Luce said hesitantly:
"It seems... a certain impression?"
Wen Jianyan straightened her back consciously and leaned slightly closer: "?"
"I'm not too impressed..." Luce raised his hand, pinched his frowning brows, "showing" a look of hard thinking, "Across the liquid and glass, it seems that , There is this black box in the distance, it is strictly protected, it seems to be placed in the center of the whole room... The lid is open."
Wen Jianyan narrowed her eyes.
"So, did you get to what's in the lid?"
he asked.
Luce shook his head: "Unfortunately... no."
During that time, he was basically in a trance state of half-dreaming and half-awake. Everything around him was like a broken dream. It was difficult even to remember, let alone remember the contents of a specific box.
Wen Jianyan nodded, "showing" a thoughtful expression.
That means, then, that the key can open it, even without the use of a lock-picking prop.
What could it be?
"..."
Wen Jianyan was startled suddenly.
He stood on the spot, his eyelashes drooped, covering his slightly stunned eyes, the whole figure seemed to be frozen, and after a few seconds, he jumped up abruptly, as if his tail had been scorched by fire.
The people next to him were shocked by his actions:
"What, what's wrong?"
Wen Jianyan didn't answer, he just quickly opened his backpack and took something out of it.
The whole body is pitch black, and it doesn't seem to be made of any metal. No, it just fits in the palm of your hand.
It's a head-to-tail snake.
He took a deep breath, slowly adjusted the angle of the Ouroboros in his hand, corresponding to the shallow notch on the box, and pressed it gently.
Strictly fit.
For a second, only a soft "click" sound was heard, and the box lid popped open.
[Integrity First] In the live broadcast room:
"go!"
"go!"
"go!!!!"
"!!!"
Everyone around couldn't help but gasp, staring in shock at the unreasonable scene in front of them, they couldn't believe their eyes.
this……
In general, except for completing the task of hiding epic-level items, epic-level items will be directly distributed to the backpack as rewards, and other items can only be collected into the system backpack after the copy has been completed, that is...
Is Wen Jianyan using props from other dungeons now?
As a result, the box in this copy was opened...
how can that be? !
Wen Jianyan didn't pay any attention to the people around her.
He lowered his eyes, slowly opened the lid of the box, took a slow deep breath, and went into the box.
Unexpectedly, the box contained a small stack of yellowish and brittle paper, which seemed to be very old, with some handwriting densely written on it.
Wen Jianyan held her breath slightly, and began to read from the recognizable handwriting.
The language on the page was English, with some Latin mixed in. At most, he could only recognize the meaning and barely pieced together the content.
"...Thank the Lord for actually communicating with such a person..."
What followed was a series of praises to the Lord and wanton descriptions of one's own humility. A rough summary is that someone suddenly found a way to contact the "God" one day, and got his own mission and task from the "God". , and began to kill for this purpose.
From these contents alone, it is easy to regard the writer as a perverted murderer who is mentally confused.
After all, in the history of human beings, there are indeed many delusional patients who said that they had received "God's mission", so they did all kinds of crazy things.
"...Lord, complete your teachings, those ungodly atheists and pagans will go to hell sooner or later, omg they're knocking on the door, they won't get anything out of it, it's God's will , no one can change, this is also the task of birth and this..."
The last stroke was so deep that it almost tore the paper.
What came next was an irregular, dry brown mark.
That's the end of the yellowed and brittle old paper.
The paper is much newer and more tidy. It seems to be a case from a mental hospital, and the brushstrokes seem to come from a certain doctor.
"...The patient was diagnosed with delusional disorder and violent tendencies. After killing more than 20 people, he was arrested. He was arrested and 'suicide', and he was transferred to the hospital after the 'suicide' failed."
"..."
"Electrical shock therapy and hydrotherapy, no improvement."
"Acupuncture, no improvement."
"Medical therapy, no improvement."
"After being admitted to the hospital, the patient did not achieve any results of treatment. The violence led to many conflicts and he was sent to the confinement room."
"..."
"The patient died."
Wen Jianyan glanced at the cause of death.
... scratching his throat a little bit with his fingernails, leading to blood loss and death.
His scalp was numb, and he skipped this passage and continued.
One is an autopsy report.
"Undigested contents were found in the patient's stomach."
"Like a blank kraft paper, no age, no writing."
"wrong……"
Then, the content on the paper was cut off.
"..."
Wen Jianyan's eyes darkened.
Obviously, this "patient" was contacted by those high-dimensional "Ability Gods" in some way, so he started a perverted killing. He was arrested for crimes and sent to a mental hospital, and that same "Ability God" "The contact details were also obtained by the mental hospital.
From here on, the degree of things was connected with his guesses.
The higher-ups of the mental hospital were bewitched, thinking that they were fulfilling the task of the gods, and that they could bring far more influence than an ordinary person who was mentally deranged, so, with the help of "Ability God", they were blind, " "Peace Nursing Home" was conceived little by little.
While he was contemplating, suddenly, Wen Jianyan suddenly realized that something seemed to be fluttering and falling from between his fingers, rubbing his fingertips silently, bringing an almost itching feeling.
He froze slightly and lowered his head.
It was a tattered kraft paper. The leather-tanned paper was yellow and worn, and looked extra soft. It fell silently into the center of the black box.
At that moment, Wen Jianyan's mind flashed what he had just read in the autopsy report.
[A blank kraft paper, no age, no handwriting]
wrong.
In front of his eyes, handwriting slowly appeared on the kraft paper.
Clear, distinct, regular.
"!"
Wen Jianyan's fingers trembled, almost snapping the box away.
He sucked in a breath.
Grass……
So, the epic props in this box are actually the contents found in that patient's stomach?
That piece of kraft paper that "confused" the entire nursing home?
"Dear Wen Jianyan, hello," was written in standard Chinese on the vellum, "you can ask three questions."
...any question is ok?
Even with those who do not know where the eyeballs come from, or even with the Nightmare Live Room?
A dangerous Dharma flashed through my mind.
Someone on the other side came to Wen Jianyan's face: "What happened?"
"……nothing."
Wen Jianyan shook his head.
A prop that can answer any question and does not limit its content... You shouldn't let anyone know of its existence until you have "groped" its function.
more importantly……
The source of this thing made Wen Jianyan wary.
He had also obtained "life" props before, such as the remains of the Holy Infant. After it was activated, Wen Jianyan could clearly feel the sensation emanating from the props.
Love, dependence, protection.
Although this piece of kraft paper doesn't have an irrefutable human shape like a ghost baby, the fact that he can talk to people and even know his name is enough to make Wen Jianyan feel threatened.
In particular, it has a direct "sex" impact on the appearance of the copy of [Peace Sanatorium], and it may also be a product created by those "Ability Gods" in order to "manipulate" humans.
And Wen Jianyan didn't forget what he did in the last dungeon - backstabbing.
He didn't think this thing would harm him.
Su Cheng, who had been standing beside him all the time, suddenly raised his head, as if something had suddenly arrived, and reacted from the dazed state:
"..."
He said to Wen Jian with a strange expression on his face: "You just now, you are going to let this copy never reopen, right?"
Wen Jianyan: "Yes."
"However, you are not going to use the two methods you just used with us..." Su Cheng's face became even more unpleasant.
The purpose of this copy is to create gods.
To make it permanently disqualified from opening, either destroy it or...
"You, tell me, you, are you ready to complete the ceremony and really create that so-called god?"
After arriving, Su Cheng stuttered a little.
Wen Jianyan paused and blinked innocently.
He denies, but...
Suddenly, his peripheral vision caught something.
Wen Jianyan was startled and lowered her head.
I don't know when the previous text on the kraft paper disappeared, and more text emerged.
"Complete the method of creating gods."
