Being an Extra Actor in an Escape Game

After all, it's not unusual for him to return to Narrow House;

The really strange thing is that he can stay sane.

Xie Zhijin thought of Xu Beijin asking him if he was in a vegetative state just now. Is this, he thought, what kept him awake?

This made Xie Zhijin feel a little complicated.

After a while, he calmed down and asked about other things.

He said, "Then what should I do next?" He asked proactively, "Should I take a nap and then re-enter the ultimate nightmare?"

Xu Beijin replied: "That's not necessary." He asked calmly, "What were the others doing before you left the Ultimate Nightmare?"

"They are planning to find artificial intelligence developers." Xie Zhijin said, and suddenly remembered something, "Oh, you know..."

Xu Beijing nodded and said, "I know..."

Xie Zhijin did not explain much, but said: "Others want to do something in the ultimate nightmare, rather than just sit back and wait for death."

Xu Beijing said sincerely: "I hope they can succeed."

This is the normal solution to the ultimate nightmare that follows the game's plot. Instead of trying to dismantle the ultimate nightmare by force from the outside like Xu Beijin.

At this time, Xie Zhijin seemed to suddenly remember something and said to Xu Beijin: "By the way, I have to say thank you."

Xu Beijing said confused: "What? If it's because of the ultimate nightmare..."

"No, I mean..." Xie Zhijin quickly explained, "Thank you for lowering the difficulty of the ultimate nightmare."

Xu Beijin: "..."

When did he turn down the difficulty of Ultimate Nightmare?

Xie Zhijin sighed and said: "The madman who ran out of the gray mist was no longer aggressive, and the taskmasters and actors quickly gathered together... Is this all your arrangement before we entered the nightmare?

"You are so prescient!"

Xu Beijin: "..."

He was silent for a moment, then smiled: "No, this is what I should do."

He was too lazy to explain clearly to this group of missionaries who misunderstood him all day long! Okay, that’s what he did! He took the blame!

However, the things Xie Zhijin mentioned still made Xu Beijin think about it.

The madman who ran out of the gray fog lost his aggressiveness...

In fact, the same goes for the group of lunatics outside the narrow building now, but Xu Beijin didn't think deeply about it.

He speculated that perhaps the ultimate nightmare had some special effect on these madmen.

Who knows what is going on in their brains at this time?

Although Xu Beijin and others called these people crazy, they were only based on themselves.

These people are not completely irrational, but they are not the kind of "reason" that belongs to Zhailou.

When they indulged in the ultimate nightmare and lost their memory of the narrow building, they turned back into the true earthlings they were before. In addition, they also experienced the doomsday again as if they were fast forwarding.

In other words, when they stepped through the door in the gray fog, it was as if they had traveled through time and arrived at a strange scene from the earth - a narrow building.

Xu Bei secretly thought that this might be a formal completion for the recurrence of the end of the earth.

Of course, the ultimate nightmare would not involve alien beings arriving and taking this group of humans away.

But it can indeed be said to be the final step in the end of mankind.

There are three stages of the end of mankind:

Madness spreads and fire from heaven descends into the world;

As for the last stage, Xu Beijin always calls it the human cage.

This is the complete end.

The sober missionaries and actors will not go through this last stage, but those who have fallen into nightmares and really think they are back on Earth have actually come from what they think of as "Earth" to this place where countless humans are trapped. in the cage.

Xu Beijin couldn't help but think that the human designer of this game - if there was one - was really an extremely powerful person.

He actually wants these human players to re-experience everything that has happened in the ultimate copy of the game. Perhaps he was hoping to jog the memories of his countrymen.

And these madmen - perhaps they cannot be called madmen, but should be called "earth people". They may be in panic all day long and don't understand why they came to this strange place.

So they are not aggressive. Even if there is, it is because of their experiences in the ultimate nightmare when the apocalypse reappears, which makes their behavior full of madness.

However, why in the ultimate nightmare, those people who ran out of the gray mist and had already sunk into the nightmare, were not aggressive at all?

Xu Beijin hadn't noticed this before. He had been busy looking for data ports and only occasionally paid attention to the scenes in the ultimate nightmare.

After thinking for a moment, he quickly came up with the answer, and this answer was not exactly what these missionaries thought. It was possible that someone had lowered the difficulty of the nightmare.

Rather, because these lunatics are players after all.

In other words, when they enter the ultimate nightmare, whether they want to attack the people around them is determined by their own wishes, not by the game mechanics.
