Civilization Invasion: Summon The Player To Flatten The Back Room

【Survive——】

The blood-red text is particularly glaring.

There was obviously no sound, but the scarlet letters seemed to materialize, like weird and difficult spells, desperately drilled into Cao thief's head, and circulated back and forth in his head.

Cao thief froze in place.

Day 4?

How the hell is there a 4th day?

On the third day, the royal rations are required to survive, so what do you need to survive on the fourth day?

Chaotic thoughts kept pounding in my mind.

Cao thief at this moment is like a candidate who just finished the exam. He thought that all the burdens had been relieved, but he didn't expect that the exam was just a dream, and he returned to the exam room as soon as he opened his eyes!

bang bang bang!

The knock on the door woke Cao thief up.

"Tie Cao, open the door~"

"If you don't open the door, we will come in."

The voices of True Eel and Doubi came from outside the door.

But in such a weird situation, the thing knocking on the door may not be the two of them.

"..."

Thief Cao shuddered, looked around, and ran into the bathroom.

Pick up the only thing that can be used as a weapon - the toilet knife.

After deliberately poking twice in the toilet.

He came to the door cautiously.

Lie on the cat's eye.

In the line of sight are the faces of Makoto and Dobi, they are indeed the two of them, and it seems that they both survived last night.

Thief Cao breathed a sigh of relief and opened the door.

However, at the next moment, a sudden change occurred!

The moment the door is opened.

The two people in front of me have changed.

It was no longer a familiar human face, but turned into two sad corpses! On the rotten face, a big mouth full of stench was biting towards him!

No, it's not a sad corpse either.

It’s the walking dead version of Meng Po and the anthropomorphic—the eyes have been completely replaced with billiard balls, the fingers have become puppet-like joints, the body is full of springs, a billiard cue is inserted from between the legs, and from the skull break out!

There is a happy and contented smile on his face.

The flesh part has completely rotted away.

! ! !

"Sine!!"

Cao thief soul is gone.

But after a brief shock, the toilet cleaver in his hand ignited his fire of courage again.

At this moment, he was like Lu Bu reincarnated, waving the liquid-stained toilet shovel, and accurately sent "Thunderbolt Half-moon Slash" to his mutated companion!

There was a "snap".

Accurately buttoned to the face of the real eel!

"Cao thief, what are you doing?"

Cao thief was awakened by a call from his companion.

He opened his eyes suddenly, only to realize that the two people in front of him were still human faces.

Among them, there is a toilet stick on the face of the real eel, trying to pull it out with both hands.

"You are so sick! Put this thing on Laozi's head!"

Cao thief blinked: "Aren't you dead?"

"Damn it, I'm already eating royal rations."

Doubi struggled to pull the toilet seat from the real eel's face.

The real eel panted: "Haven't you seen that Doubi is not alienated yet?"

Only then did Cao thief realize that today's funny ratio has not changed more seriously, it is still the same as yesterday.

It seems [eating royal rations on night 3 is correct]

Can……

Why is there a 4th night?

With doubts, Cao thief said: "So, do you still have to work today?"

"That's what we want to say."

"Come and see."

"..."

The 2 people took Thief Cao, took out the flashlight from the emergency supplies cabinet in the corridor, and came to the entrance of the casino lobby.

Then, the real eel opened the door with a bang.

Cao thief looked in and froze in place.

Here is not where he worked for the first 3 days.

silence.

dark.

In the originally resplendent hall, there was no light at all, and there was not a single "person" in the bustling place in the past.

The flashlights of Cao thief and three people shine inside.

The range of the beam of light is full of floating dust.

The entire hall exudes a strong smell of corruption, the wood is rotten and the steel is rusted, the game consoles and lottery machines have long been damaged, cobwebs are everywhere on the ceiling, the pool table and the floor are full of moss and dust.

The radio has long been dilapidated and can no longer produce any sound.

In the prize pool area, a large number of prize dolls lowered their heads, and the dust on them made them unable to see their original colors.

Obviously, no one has been here for a long time.

It seems to have been abandoned for a long time.

Can……

"If this place has been abandoned long ago, what were we doing for the first three days?"

With such doubts.

The three swallowed their saliva, suppressed the fear in their hearts, and walked inside carefully with flashlights.

After probing for a while.

Cao thief found a fuzzy round object on the pillar.

He shone his flashlight there.

Only then did I realize that it was a clock covered in cobwebs and dust.

11:49.

However, the system time shows 7:12.

Cao thief stared at it for a while before realizing that it was broken and would never turn again.

"So, what's going on here?"

True Eel swallowed: "Why don't you...ask the housekeeper?"

The other two did not speak.

But they all agreed, and came to the bar together.

There was no butler here, only a neatly folded maid outfit, which was placed on the high chair she sat on yesterday.

Clothes have been dusty for a long time.

Cao thief wanted to touch it, but the moment he touched the high chair, the chair creaked and fell down without warning.

The three of them took a closer look and found that the bracket of the chair had been corroded.

"Obviously just sleeping, why does this place seem to be deserted for more than ten years?"

Unwilling to give up, the three went to the manager "Louis" again.

And in the management office where the manager "Louis" often stays, there is no sign of him.

There is only a small doll statue on the counter with peeling paint.

One of the doll's eyes is a normal human's eye, and the other is a billiard ball.

Go up and touch.

"Fool~fool~"

"The best way to overcome fear is to face it, do cowards understand~"

The puppet spit out two sentences mechanically.

Then fell silent.

Cao thief patted it a few times, and the real eel stepped forward and said, "Brother Lu, what's the matter with you", but the puppet didn't respond any more.

After a while of silence.

"So, were we serving ghosts the first three days?"

In this situation, the CPUs of the three people have been completely burned.

Could it be that the task has been completed and it is enough to leave the casino directly?

Soon, the fantasy of the three was shattered.

System prompt: The mission is in progress.

subsequently.

The 3 people also came to the place where they had just entered the casino, trying to see if they could leave here through the elevator.

However, this elevator was also abandoned.

The elevator doors are old and rusted, and the buttons are malfunctioning and leaking electricity. Doubi uses his wooden arm to poke the buttons, but no matter how he presses them, there is no response.

3 people understand one thing.

They're stuck here.

...

"The rest of the way, you have to walk by yourself."

afternoon.

2:45.

Everyone still didn't find any clues.

Today, no one even sent them lunch.

Due to [Hunger] and [Thirst], the state declined, and the 3 people had to go to the kitchen to find food.

However, it was found that all the food had been spoiled.

In the refrigerator, in the cupboard, in the pots and bowls, there are all white reptiles wriggling like rice grains—it is not a maggot, but a decomposer creature that is exclusive to Level 5 and Level 5.1.

3 people had to continue searching hungry.

During the period, Cao thief went to the children's area to see if he could meet the damn kid.

But it is a pity that the place is also empty.

Even more desolate.

Cao thief rummaged for a long time among a large piece of debris that had been completely turned into confetti.

Only then did I find a faceless doll - she was wearing a hairpin with a small yellow flower on it.

After searching the kitchen, children's area, and hall, the three found nothing and had to return to the accommodation area.

Go back to room 404.

Cao thief turned on the TV.

Not surprisingly, it was still a snowflake screen.

The 3 people searched all the rooms from 401 to 422 again, and finally found a white chip. When they wanted to insert coins, they found that the TV had no coin slot this time.

...

Level 1, Alpha base.

"It's almost over."

The planner of this game, one person and one core, is watching the performance of the three people.

"It looks like it's going to be wiped out."

time flies.

night.

11:00.

Cao thief lay on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.

Day 1 - Almond water.

Day 2 - Yagrugya fruit.

Day 3 - Royal rations.

Day 4—? ? ?

"Sweet, what do I need to eat to survive tonight?"

"Or, in fact, you don't need to eat anything? Just lie down and sleep?"

In order to find even the slightest clue, the three Cao thieves have searched every corner of this decadent casino.

But apart from a piece of 3D glasses whose purpose is unknown, nothing was found.

Not to mention items that can resist [transformation].

Not even edible food!

11:20.

The three discussed countermeasures together in Room 404.

"Do you want to stay together tonight?"

"Probably not."

Zhen Eel shook his head and said: "The last time Doubi came to my place to rush through the door before going to bed, but was scolded by the housekeeper. She said that only one person can stay in a room at night."

"What if the rules are different on the last night?"

"Let's separate, if we all stay in one room, we'll probably be wiped out."

"OK."

Cao thief nodded and said: "Remember my house number, 404, and run to me if you have any situation."

The other two nodded.

After they left, Cao thief continued to go back to bed and fish in a daze.

11:35.

Puff~

There seemed to be some noise outside the door.

Like something fell to the ground.

Cao thief glanced at it, took a deep breath to force himself to calm down, and kept telling himself, "It will be fine after tonight."

In order to divert attention, he took out the pair of 3D glasses.

This is a funny comparison, it was found in the prize pool of a lottery machine.

At that time, the three people were excited, thinking that it was a key clue.

As a result, I didn't find it useful for a long time.

Cao thief shook it bored.

"Huh?"

He suddenly made a surprising discovery.

After throwing the glasses to a certain angle, so that you, the glasses and the TV screen are connected in a straight line.

The TV has a picture!

Cao thief was shocked for a moment.

Lightspeed got up, put on the glasses, and looked at the TV like a snowflake screen with the naked eye.

11:45.

Zizi~

The TV began to broadcast the picture, and Cao thief stared at it intently.

Wow~Zizi~

The screen flickers.

The next moment, Cao thief was stunned.

Because through the glasses, what he saw on the TV was the surveillance screen in a corner of his room!

Moreover, it was a black and white screen, filled with white snowflake interference and distorted noise.

After a few seconds, he opened the door and walked in.

This was his first day in here, looking around, he was still full of curiosity about everything here.

Soon he was off to work and didn't return until he went to bed at night.

everything is normal.

11:46.

The screen flashed quickly, and soon came the second day.

On this day, Cao thief was surprised to see that when he got up in the morning, his movements were a little stiff.

After a closer look, I found myself in the picture, one eyeball has turned into a billiard ball, and one leg has turned into a jointed leg of a puppet.

But "Thief Cao" didn't seem to know it, and limped out to continue today's work.

Come back at night and sleep.

11:47.

3rd day.

When I woke up this morning, [Transformation] became more serious.

The eyes of "Cao Thief" have been completely replaced, several clockwork springs have grown from the body, and one hand has mutated into an octopus-like soft tissue.

But "Cao Thief" didn't know it, his eyes were wide open, and there was a calm and peaceful smile on his face.

Get out and do that tireless work.

Come back at night, lie down and sleep.

Just when Cao thief was full of expectations and could see the content of the fourth day, the picture stopped abruptly.

there is none left.

11:48.

"Why is there no picture?"

Cao thief was full of doubts and shook the 3D glasses vigorously.

Put it on again, only to find that the TV can no longer play any pictures.

The time is getting closer and closer to 11:50.

"..."

Thief Cao took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the uneasiness in his heart.

Combined with the clues I just saw, my mind began to think rapidly.

What was shown on the TV just now was the picture of myself resting in the room for the previous 3 days.

But there is a big difference - I ate the corresponding food within 3 days respectively, which did not cause my body to [transform].

But the self on TV is obviously different, showing what would happen to me if I didn't eat the corresponding food.

But why, the picture on the 4th day cannot be released?

Is it because I haven't passed the 4th day yet?

Cao thief sat cross-legged on the bed, resting his chin and squinting his eyes to think. At this moment, his brain's CPU was spinning wildly, as if returning to the college entrance examination room!

"I don't know what you're talking about."

"Number ③, she is the best, careful planning."

"No, wrong, time."

Louis' words echoed in Cao thief's mind.

The steward's confession to himself is:

【Before 12:00, you only have one chance to go out】

[After 11:50, until 6:00 the next morning, do not leave the room no matter what... otherwise you will bear the consequences]

11:49.

"It is impossible for an important NPC to confess meaningless words."

"Before 12 o'clock, you only have one chance to go out."

"Only one chance to get out."

There was a flash of light in Cao thief's mind!

He seems to have discovered something!

【Before 12:00, you only have one chance to go out】

go out? This going out does not specify an object.

11:49:15.

On the second day when it was offline, he even asked Sky for advice. Based on his rich experience in puzzle-solving games, his suggestion was: interpret the rules in multiple ways, understand them once and repeat them in his own words, maybe you can find some key information .

【Before 12:00, you only have one chance to go out】

In my own words...

Cao thief was instantly terrified.

This sentence can also be understood as:

【After 12 o'clock, you can no longer go out】

This out may not point out the room.

but...

Cao thief blurted out three words: "Get out of the casino."

At the same time, he also fully understood.

On night 4, you don't need to eat anything at all.

but...

Get out of the casino before 12 o'clock!

11:49:30.

to escape.

However, where to escape?

The elevator that brought them was broken.

After getting the key clue, Cao thief didn't feel overwhelmed but quickly calmed down—think about what effect the content on TV has!

Why is there no Day 4 content on TV?

Gulu~gulu~

Cao thief suddenly heard a sound of bubbles.

It was as if something was surfacing.

He turned his head, almost frightened out of his wits—on the TV screen where the snowflakes were flickering, a strange face emerged, and that was Cao thief's own face.

But at this time, his face had completely [transformed], his eyes were replaced by billiard balls, his teeth were like bullets, and a club passed through his head, with a happy and contented smile on his face.

The degree of transformation is deeper than that of the 3rd day.

Cao thief also fully understood at this time why there was no content on the fourth day on TV.

Because... Day 4 doesn't even exist.

So what they're on now is... day 4 of this non-existence.

11:49:50.

"Cao Thief" is about to crawl out.

【The best way to overcome fear is to face it】

Recalling in my mind, what the manager "Louis" turned into a puppet said.

Cao thief didn't know where the courage came from, roared, and went straight to "Cao thief"!

He slammed his head against the TV screen!

boom--

11:49:59.

A miracle happened.

The cold and hard TV screen seemed to have turned into a liquid. Once Cao thief's head hit it, he seemed to be stuck in a quagmire.

The whole person slowly sank into the TV.

Like cutting out between layers.

11:50.

Room 404 is quiet.

11:50:10.

Inside the room of Maeel and Doubi.

The two pricked up their ears, listening to the rustling "sound" outside the door, their hearts rose to their throats.

After more than 10 seconds, the sound outside the door stopped.

The 2 people just breathed a sigh of relief.

But one after another, they heard a weird "hehe" laugh from behind them.

The two turned their heads and saw "True Eel" and "Doubi" slowly crawling out of the TV, staring at them with mechanical and eerie laughter.

"ah!!!"

"ah!!!"

Two screams came from rooms 423 and 444.

【A real eel was killed by &%￥】

【I am Doubi was killed by &%￥】

...

"finished?"

In room 404.

Cao thief slowly opened his eyes.

He lay on the big bed and sat up tiredly.

"Is it interesting to occupy the room?"

A cold voice sounded.

He turned his head, and suddenly found that on the chair beside the bed, the butler ③ was holding the fairy tale book that he obtained the clue that "almond water can resist [transformation]".

Seeing Thief Cao wake up, she expressed undisguised disgust in her tone:

"You've been sleeping here all day."

one day?

He glanced at the clock on the wall.

11:51.

After a long silence, Cao thief said, "Can I go out?"

The housekeeper snorted coldly: "Of course you can try, and you will be at your own risk."

However, seeing Cao thief's uncharacteristic silence, she couldn't help asking:

"What’s wrong with you?"

"Nothing."

"tired."

Only Cao thief knew that his whole body was shaking.

Even though he knew it was a game, he couldn't restrain his fear.

Especially when he saw "myself" crawling out of the TV, combined with the clues he got from the puppet, he rushed towards the TV with all his might, but he didn't expect it to be the same as what he had guessed——Facing the fear, one head Crashing into the TV is the only way to pass the level.

After returning to the normal casino.

Seeing the butler, Cao thief felt a sense of security.

Relaxed offline.

"..."

The butler looked at Cao thief, who was sleeping for a second, and put his hand on his chin, with a thoughtful look on his face.

The next day, morning.

As soon as Cao thief opened his eyes, a reminder appeared in front of him.

【mission completed】
