Infinite Mask Game

Chapter 74 Between Life and Death

Xia Ziyuan cannot control her body, and even if she has every means, she cannot use it at this moment.

The top priority is to find the cause. Her situation is very similar to that of a ghost, but neither of them saw anything unusual. As for Wei Miao, it seems that the ghost is controlling her through some kind of medium.

Suddenly, a soft blue light lit up from Xia Ziyuan's hand, sweeping across the entire room in an instant.

This is Xia Ziwan's ability. Although her body was controlled, her skills were performed instinctively. There was no need for poses or pre-actions, and there were no cutscenes or stiffness. She could do whatever she wanted.

Later, Chai Yun could actually see a gray-black aura covering her whole body without the help of his cunning eyes, and two thin lines composed of cunning aura extended from her body to the large mirrors on both sides.

The bathroom has a double sink, so large mirrors cover most of the wall one behind the other.

As if aware of their gazes, Xia Ziyuan's figure in the mirrors on both sides evoked a terrifying smile.

Obviously Xia Ziwan's standing posture has a certain sideways angle, but the figures in the mirrors on both sides are facing them. They look exactly the same, and their arms are slowly raised, corresponding to Xia Ziwan's movements.

Chai Yun's figure was slowly turning around in the mirror, and it was still some time before he faced her.

The "chai clouds" in the front and rear mirrors are not consistent at the moment. One is about to be completed, and the other has just turned halfway from the back.

By comparison, Wei Miao basically understood the operating mechanism of this ghost. At a certain point in time, the figures in the mirror will slowly turn away from reality. When the mirrors on both sides are facing figures, the mirror figures will in turn control the original owners and control them to commit suicide.

So, what’s the solution?

Compared to Chai Yun, who looked calm, Xia Ziyuan looked very anxious: "Think of a solution quickly! I can't move now, try breaking the mirror, maybe I can be saved!"

"What if after breaking the mirror, you are also torn apart?" Chai Yun looked at the two strings connected to her body. How to get a puppet out of control? Isn't the most obvious answer to be to cut the puppet strings?

Red Blade should be able to do it.

But Chai Yun did not mention this, but said: "Didn't you notice? When you stare at one of the mirrors, the movements of the person in the mirror will stop."

"Huh?" Xia Ziyuan heard what she said, and when she observed carefully, she finally discovered this detail that she had ignored in her panic.

But she found that even if she stared at a mirror, her hands kept coming closer to her neck: "This doesn't work!"

Wei Miao previously thought that Xia Ziyuan's fear of ghosts was a self-effacing statement. Now she knows that this is indeed not an exaggeration. At least at this moment, her thinking ability and judgment have declined like a normal player.

She curled her lips and said, "There are two sides to the mirror. If you only stare at one side, the person in the mirror on the other side is still moving. Of course it won't work."

Xia Ziyuan was stunned for a moment: "But... I only have one pair of eyes."

But I have three.

Chai Yun faced one of the mirrors, and his sly eyes came out from the back of his neck, staring at the mirror behind him.

The corners of the mouth of the person in Chai Yun's mirror were raised, as if she was evil and proud. Now, the smile on her face is slowly disappearing, and her eyes are dead.

"With your current posture, it's not realistic to look at two mirrors alternately." Chai Yun looked at Xia Ziyuan thoughtfully and took a few steps to the side.

The position of the person in the mirror actually changed, moving with her, like a horizontal plane game character moving.

Then, Chai Yun lifted Xia Ziyuan slightly off the ground, helped her turn around, and moved her to the left.

Chai Yun moved while observing the person in Xia Ziwan's mirror, but her position did not change.

"It's like you're locked in."

After trying her best to calm down, Xia Ziyuan was able to understand Chai Yun's words. What she meant was that even if Chai Yun carried her out, her connection with the ghost would still not be severed.

Chai Yun walked out of the toilet directly this time. As soon as he left the door, he turned around and returned, looking in the mirror.

Her weird figure in the mirror disappeared, and the mirror image returned to normal, but the more she looked at it, the more she felt that something evil was happening, and the ghost in the mirror was ready to move.

Chai Yun, who has not yet formed a connection, can escape from control by leaving the toilet, but Xia Ziyuan, who has established a connection, is under its control even to the ends of the earth.

"Is there anything you can do?" Xia Ziyuan looked hopeful, but her eyes twitched crazily, looking at two mirrors alternately, "I can't last long in this state, my eyeballs are about to pop out."

In Xia Ziyuan's opinion, a person who can kill a ghost in a short time is not to say a boss, but is at least much better than her.

Chai Yun glanced at her swaying eyes, feeling inexplicably happy, even though she knew it was immoral to laugh at this moment.

"There is another way to get you out of your misery."

"What can I do?"

“Quit the struggle and quit the game.”

"Please, boss, is this the time to joke?!" Xia Ziyuan was a little angry.

"Then there is actually another way, but I want to ask you a question first. Does anyone else know that you are a player?"

"No, no one wants to reveal their identity, but you posted the post, and I just wanted to get in touch with you."

"That's right." Chai Yun said seriously, "But why should I save you?"

"Ah?!" Xia Ziyuan was shocked by the torture of her soul. She said "ah" more times today than she had in the past year.

She frowned and held back a sentence: "Why don't you save me?"

Chai Yun spread his hands: "Do you know what a fun player is?"

When ordinary people encounter this situation, they are likely to rack their brains to save people. This is the inertia of thinking under the influence of social morality. The morality representing "justice" meets the interests of most people, so it can become morality.

Everyone always hopes that someone will lend a hand when they are in trouble.

Wei Miao is different. Her brain circuit is unique. She first asks herself: Is she familiar with me? What's the benefit of saving her? What's the impact of not saving her?

Then, after weighing the pros and cons, she found that Xia Ziyuan's life is nothing more than selling a favor to the other party and getting closer to her, but from a standpoint, the Exorcist Society is her enemy.

Players have always had a flexible moral bottom line, and human feelings cannot be trusted.

And Xia Ziyuan's death has no negative impact on her. First of all, no one knows that she is a player. She is just an unlucky ghost in the eyes of the public. Secondly, the surveillance saw the two of them coming in and out, but if she did not intervene throughout the process, Xia Ziyuan's death would only be considered a ghost killing. She could get herself out by insisting that she was scared and fainted in the toilet. Finally, she lost a faction opponent.

And the death of this "hidden player" may be beneficial to the subsequent actions.

Speaking of this... In fact, she seems to have a third way between life and death.

Wei Miao suddenly had a new idea.
