Chapter 6
In fact, the rules are very simple. Each of the three manipulators of the obedient camp has two endings in their hands. One is the ending of Claire, and the other is the ending of his character. No matter which one of these two endings is achieved, Xing Ye will lose. With the addition of the three manipulators, it means that Xing Ye alone has to fight the unknown six endings, and the difficulty can be imagined.
To add to the difficulty, the system concealed the opponent's rules from the rebellious camp, and designed countless thinking traps to guide Xing Ye to think in the wrong direction.
Malice, this is Xing Ye's deepest feeling since entering this world. Whether it is women's clothing, or women's clothing, or women's clothing, he has to be horrified, and he has to be treated with 120,000 spirits.
After smoothing his thoughts, Xing Ye couldn't help sighing: "Although I am in the camp with only 1% lucky value, my luck is really good."
The older maid stared at him blankly. The rules were so harsh that this person still thought he was lucky?
"The first opponent is so stupid that he almost leaked all the rules to me. It's really lucky." Xing Ye shook his head. "This game is very malicious. You can't always expect your opponent to make mistakes. I want the next manipulator. Caution."
Older maid: "..."
Is he saying I am stupid? Am i stupid? The older maid thought suspiciously.
She feels that if you lose, you don’t lose, so she straightened her back and asked, "What if you guess the rules? How would you escape the manor without me? You are just a maid. You stun Count Luca. He must wake up. Will kill you."
Xing Ye did not respond to her, but got up and walked out the door. After a while, he entered the room with a corpse. It was the maid who had been tortured to death before he entered.
"Under normal circumstances, what do you do with these corpses?" Xing Ye asked.
"Throw it into the river," the elderly maid said, "the people here are very careless about hygiene."
Well, it was true in the Middle Ages, and so the plague was rampant.
"In other words, you should have handled this corpse in accordance with Count Luca's instructions. If there is another corpse in the bedroom, it should be Claire's." Xing Ye said, "You just said that death in the game is not a real death?"
"Of course not. Death will only deduct 50% of points by default. And the penalty rule for failure in this game is always to only deduct 50% of points. If you have more points, you will deduct more, but if you have fewer points, you will not lose all of them." The maid, forced by Xing Ye's aura, couldn't help but tell all the rules she knew.
Will not die... Then why did Xing Shuo die? Xing Ye thought of his younger brother in the mourning hall. He is now 100% sure that Xing Shuo’s death is related to the game, but now...
The intelligence is not enough, he needs to continue the game to get more information.
Putting the body of the maid and the unconscious earl together, he dragged the elderly maid to the door.
After arranging all this, Xing Ye selected the largest horse riding outfit from the earl's room, took off the maid outfit, and barely changed into a men's outfit.
His chest was tight, and the cloth strips made his chest very painful. Xing Ye frowned, quite uncomfortable.
He cut off his long hair with a knife in the dormitory, imitating the earl’s hairstyle, making it into a common hairstyle for men in the world. After tossing for a long time, he raised the mirror to see if the hairstyle was correct. This time, it appeared in the mirror. Reflected his face.
"Make the left side shorter." It also gave an evaluation!
Xing Ye cut his hair short according to Yan. It seemed to look better than before. The mirror had a good aesthetic.
"You, what are you going to do?" the elderly maid asked in horror. She really couldn't guess what Xing Ye was going to do.
"The last question, can you surrender yourself?" Xing Ye asked.
"Yes, yes." The elderly maid stammered in reply, "After surrendering, she will leave the game world and her body will default to death."
"Very well," Xing Ye put the knife on the elderly maid's neck, "I admit defeat and leave and be killed by me, choose one."
"What's the difference?"
"You said that the pain of death in the game is consistent with reality, and I don't want to kill people personally. Although I know this is not really killing people, I don't like this experience. You are also going to die, whether it hurts or not. Good choice?" Xing Ye rubbed the elderly maid's neck with a knife expressionlessly, "To be honest, I am a peace-loving person. I have never killed a chicken. I really don’t guarantee that I can kill you with a single knife. If you don’t die, you will have to suffer a lot before you die."
Do you really love peace? Your expression looks very skilled! The old maid was shaking all over, she just joined the game, and she didn't expect to meet such a terrible person in the first world!
As Xing Ye said, this is a good choice, and both sides lose. Why not choose an easy way.
Seeing that Xing Ye didn't mean to explain, the older maid didn't want to be alone with him anymore. She clicked on the bracelet, and after sending a "careful" message to the other two teammates, she clicked the surrender button.
Xing Ye could only see her operating randomly in the air, but could not see her system panel. It seemed that this panel was hidden from the hostile camp.
After admitting defeat, the body of the elderly maid softened.
Xing Ye put her by the door, posing as if struggling to escape.
"What are you going to do?" The mirror lit up a few times, reminding Xing Ye to notice the words on the mirror.
"Let the identity of Claire disappear." Xing Ye explained to the mirror with a rare patience. "There is definitely no DNA identification technology in this world. I only need to fake Count Luca without noticing that the curtain is lit by a candle, and then this female corpse and Count Luca When her body is burned, no one can confirm if she is Claire."
The most important thing is not whether other people believe that Claire is dead, but that he can take this opportunity to change his face.
"The mission issued by the system is to prevent others from discovering that I am not Claire, but it does not limit me to the identity of Claire. If Claire dies, the mission will be completely non-existent. Because if you want to identify me as Claire next , We must first prove that I am Claire, and then prove that I am not. This is a paradox and it is impossible to realize."
The mirror flickered and seemed to have given up understanding.
When most people play a strange game, the first thing they think about is to understand the rules of the game, right? But this player, thinking about how to drill the loopholes in the rules, how to overthrow the original rules and re-enact his own rules.
Xing Ye didn't like to obey fate, he was born to step on fate under his feet.
Lighting the curtains and bed sheets, Xing Ye quietly watched the fire continue to spread, eventually engulfing the maid’s body, Count Luca, and the elderly maid.
Most of the people in the manor were asleep at this time, and no one noticed a person crawling down from the earl's bedroom window on the second floor.
The first "fire" was yelled by someone who didn't know, everyone heard the sound and ran out of their room.
The old housekeeper organized the servants to enter the room to save people, but the fire was too strong for them to get close.
The fire burned all night and gradually went out the next day. Everyone could only find three corpses in the ashes, and the maid's outfit that was left under the bed by Duke Luca and luckily not completely burned.
The old butler recognized that this was the dress prepared by his new maid, Claire.
Count Luca's brutality and absurdity are well known, and he hasn't gotten into trouble once or twice.
Regardless of whether this is an accident or not, some people who want to inherit the property and title of Count Luca will classify the incident as an accident. Because once the kingdom and the church are allowed to intervene in this matter, the title and land of Count Luca may be divided.
On the night of the fire, many horses were lost in the stable, but the loss was nothing compared to Count Luca's property.
Xing Ye rode one of the horses and escaped from the manor smoothly while everyone was too busy to take care of him.
He didn't have a map and didn't know the road, so he could only ride his horse to run in the opposite direction of Claire's village.
But Xing Ye was not in a hurry, he didn't need to finish the ending, the other two manipulators should be anxious.
After about a long time, the narration sounded as Xing Ye expected: "Claire escaped from the manor by the fire and pretended to be a man. But she was just an ordinary peasant girl, and she didn't know where to go. At this time, she felt like a mirror. It's hot, take it out, and a map to the palace appears on the mirror."
Xing Ye said to the mirror: "Hello, map."
mirror:"……"
The author has something to say:
Mirror: mmp!
Xing Ye: Really thought I could live as Claire for a lifetime? What are you thinking about, how could I have been women's clothing!
