Doomsday Wonderland

"...But can you really believe the guarantee Jiajiada has made to you now?"

The bite just now was a bit too greedy; now Lin Sanjiu's tongue had to go around a mouthful of food with great difficulty to form a sentence, and he had to be careful not to spit out the residue.

The last time she really ate was in a dirty office, which was a few days ago. There were many crises and dangers along the way, so naturally she didn't have time to eat, until Lin Sanjiu sat down in the restaurant. When she saw plates of food being served on the table, she suddenly woke up with a pack of hungry wolves biting her internal organs. Every bite seemed to break the spoon.

Pina had already had enough to drink and had a cup of hot tea in her hand. As she watched Lin Sanjiu devouring it, the look on her face could almost be said to be close to awe.

"Eat slowly. If it's not enough, I can order some more for you..." She asked carefully, "Don't you trust Jiajiada?"

The person who answered the call was Kiyokuru.

"Although I don't belong to the same department as him, I am very clear about their operating style." He lowered his voice and said, "Unlike other dungeons that are self-contained and like independent creatures, this dungeon is too large. It is so big that people can live in it for a lifetime. It is difficult to maintain this kind of copy solely by relying on its own innate energy and resources... The most efficient and useful building element is people."

Pina swallowed her tea hard, her full attention seized.

When a good actor tells a story, he has a kind of unconscious attraction; even if Qingjiuru is not speaking lines now, he is playing the role of an ordinary and mediocre copy worker.

"The Evolver is like a battery that can recharge and upgrade automatically... For example, if you use the chips generated by the dungeon to exchange for an item you have always dreamed of, it looks like you have earned it. The dungeon paid for a genuine thing. But you only got your own chips back, right?”

Youqing Jiuli took the initiative to take over the burden of persuasion. While Lin Sanjiu was relieved and ate, she did not forget to observe him secretly.

It's like Qingjiu Liu has an adjustment button that can adjust the "dazzling degree"; sometimes he is as unmistakable as the stars in the long night, the cold moon and the dark sea, and sometimes he can look like an ordinary accountant wearing round glasses - for example Say now. The difference seemed to be that he pressed down his hair with water, hunched his back slightly, stretched his neck forward, and pulled a muscle unnaturally... This was a change that she could see, and maybe it was something she could see. There are more things that cannot be seen, which together cause the difference in his impression.

"Isn't that true?" Pina looked at him and asked, then suddenly said: "Hey, your eyes are very beautiful, have you ever thought about changing your look..."

After all, it was just a change caused by his acting skills, and his facial features were still unique. Without makeup, it was impossible to completely transform into the Hunchback of Notre Dame. Lin Sanjiu thought as she sank her teeth deeply into the salmon egg muffin.

"But in the process of trying to get the chips, you are like a hamster running on wheels to generate electricity. Your actions, your abilities, and your energy are all turned into an endless stream of electrical energy, which is transported A copy was given. When a person becomes an employee, everything he does as an employee, even if he sneezes, is equivalent to generating electricity."

Qingjiuru didn't seem to realize that the two people at the same table were considering his styling problem, and still explained: "On this basis, you also need to put in all kinds of actual labor for the copy and make countless improvements and repairs... The copy only uses the 'power' you produced, exchanges a small part of it, and then provides it to you."

Whether he can convince Pina to change her mind can be said to be the most important priority before the arrival of the puppet master and his team.

Pina had met Lin Sanjiu with her own eyes. If Lin Sanjiu wanted to avoid being exposed and not discovered by Jia Jiatian, she either had to recruit Pina into the escape group, or she had to make Pina agree to keep it secret - this was also One of the reasons why she came to the restaurant to delay time - but can Lin Sanjiu trust the evolver Pina, can she trust the dungeon employee Pina?

"If this is just the case, then during the contract period, it can be said that both parties get what they need."

The character played by Qingjiuru at this time is actually a teetotaler. Just now he waved his hand solemnly and declined the red wine provided by the waiter, making him seem more reliable.

"However, in the first three years, it was just a hook to hook you. The power of the copy is corrosive. I personally experienced the softening and dissolution of my willpower little by little, the gradual increase in dependence on the power of the copy, and the dependence on the external world. I also lost my imagination bit by bit... When I suddenly realized one day that the outside world had not appeared in my mind for a week, and I had never imagined anything about the sky, sea and people outside, I I realized that if I stayed any longer, I would be in even greater danger."

Kiyokuru lowered his head and pushed up his glasses. It is not easy for him to continue to play "accountant" when he is really emotional.

"Imagination is not the ability to fantasize. Before we do something, whether you are aware of it or not, there will actually be a process of anticipation... This is a key ability for humans to survive and walk in the world. When you lose your understanding of an environment, An imagination of something..."

Qingjiuru frowned and made an analogy: "For example, let's say you want to change clothes. If you can't predict how you can put a T-shirt on your body, then you will lose it. The ability to put on a T-shirt. Now it is very difficult for me to imagine how to really leave the copy and how to survive in the outside world. I need to force myself to think about it over and over again, just like An injured person recovers and learns to walk again. I think this is how the copy gradually makes employees lose the ability to leave it."

This was the first message Lin Sanjiu heard - she couldn't help but put down the tableware and glanced at Qing Jiuliu blankly.

Pina also shuddered obviously, but she didn't know how many benefits Jiajiada had promised her. She still hesitated: "Then... if I stay alert, at the end of the first three years , if you leave immediately..."

There are many people who think they can pull chestnuts out of the fire - otherwise there wouldn't be Ponzi schemes even in the Twelve Doomsday Realms.

The two looked at each other, both feeling a little anxious.

Qingjiu Liu's warnings and reminders are actually far away and difficult to imagine - humans are not far-sighted animals to begin with - and everything Jiajiata promised, whether it is a comfortable living environment or endless supplies of goods, , safety and stability without having to take risks...but everything is within reach, no wonder Pina can't resist the temptation.

Just as Lin Sanjiu was thinking about what to say, a figure suddenly stumbled into the restaurant from outside the door. All of the people present were evolutionaries with keen senses. Even if the movement of that person was not too big, it was still shocking. Everyone turned their heads.

"I, I have something to announce,"

It was a man with a long and slender body, with a red and white face. He didn't know what was going on, and he was even breathing a little unevenly. A waiter made a hissing gesture at him, and he looked at the restaurant again, as if he had just remembered the rules about no noise in the casino; he almost didn't waste any time, and rushed to the door closest to the door. In front of a table, he whispered a few words to the evolved person on the table. Without waiting for a response, he turned around and rushed to the next table.

"What's going on?" Pina asked hesitantly.

Lin Sanjiu had turned around and watched the evolver hurrying from one dining table to the next, muttering the same message again and again, bringing the news closer and closer; she even You didn't need to wait for the man to approach, you already knew what the news was - at the table in front, the evolver who heard the message clearly stood up suddenly, and with a pale face, he let a sentence slip out of his mouth: "Puppet Master" outside!"

The sound of chairs being pulled open hastily, the noise of cups and plates being knocked onto the table, the sound of people gasping... all at the same time disrupted the previously cheerful and quiet conversation and laughter in the restaurant - in the frightened In the little chaos, Lin Sanjiu, who suddenly stood up straight, was not eye-catching.

Some people were more sensible and hurriedly comforted the people around them: "Don't worry, everyone, this is a casino hall, no violence is allowed, don't be afraid..."

"Why is he here?" There were also some evolvers who were not afraid of the word "puppet master" and still asked the person who brought the message in a leisurely manner: "When you saw him, the first thing you thought of was to come and inform everyone. ?"

"No, no," the slender man said with a grimace: "I was accidentally caught by him... Although I can't use force, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net, but I feel as if he didn't No matter how we did it, I and several other people couldn't move together... Then, the puppet master, um, your lord, ordered me and a few other people to spread the news of his arrival to everyone in the casino hall. Here. He said that even if one person doesn’t know, he will make me regret having a mouth. No one in the restaurant doesn’t know now, right?”

"Why would he-"

Before the man had finished asking, a figure had already rushed out from a table in the restaurant; even though she was reminded sternly by the waiter, she didn't slow down much. Halfway through, she turned around with a smile on her face. She urged and greeted her companion: "Hurry, come quickly, let's go out and find him!"

Pina froze beside the table, staring at the beaming Lin Sanjiu in the distance, as if the latter suddenly grew eight tentacles in front of her eyes.

"etc,"

Seeing Qing Jiuru also walking over, she quickly stood up, but for a moment she was unwilling to accept the turn of fate, and stammered: "Why should we find someone - the puppet master? "
