Survival game: my plug-ins can stack up

Cinderella didn't care about the magic mirror's words.

For her, the secret buried in her heart was suddenly spoken out, like a hole opening in the bank of a river that was about to burst, and what she wanted to say was like the gurgling water that couldn't stop at all.

"I want to know if my prince still loves me? Why does he behave intimately with that countess? How can I regain the prince's love? Why did the prince change his heart? Does the countess have other purposes for approaching the prince? I……"

The magic mirror was forced to listen to a series of questions, and the whole mirror was in bad shape.

"Stop, stop, stop!" It raised its voice, interrupting Cinderella's unfinished words.

Cinderella finally stopped.

She bit her lip in embarrassment, feeling a little embarrassed when she finally realized that she had said everything in her heart.

Zhao Xun, who had been silent the whole time, was speechless after listening to the whole process.

Unexpectedly, Cinderella got the magic mirror for this purpose...

Sure enough, fairy tales only end at the happiest moment when the prince and princess get married, and their subsequent lives are not much different from ordinary people.

However, after hearing this, Magic Mirror was definitely not willing to make a contract with Cinderella.

It feels bored and tired of the Queen asking "Am I the most beautiful woman in the world" every day, not to mention Cinderella's series of "Does the Prince still love me?"

Sure enough, the next second the magic mirror said with disgust: "The only way you want me is to ask your prince if he still loves you every day?"

"I don't want to guess the prince's thoughts every day. This will make me very insecure and destroy the relationship between me and the prince." Cinderella answered truthfully, "Asking you every day will make me feel at ease. If it's true If there is an emotional crisis, you can know it in advance and come up with a response plan in advance.”

"You've given up on this!" Magic Mirror said rudely, "I won't answer such boring questions every day."

It's not a fool, how could it jump into a similar pit twice.

Cinderella didn't expect that the magic mirror would reject her without hesitation. She was stunned for a while without speaking, only feeling a little sad.

"Let's do this," Zhao Xun said at this time, "When we arrive at the destination, Magic Mirror, you answer a question from Cinderella, and I will let you go free."

Cinderella's wish is to get the magic mirror, but she does not say that she wants to "get it forever" or "cannot lose it", nor does she mention the length of time for "getting it".

So the process of "getting" should be almost the same.

It is not difficult to infer from what Cinderella just said that "getting" in Cinderella's heart is not just about holding the magic mirror in her hand, but also asking questions.

This is why he fought for Cinderella at this time.

"I don't." Magic Mirror remained unmoved and insisted on refusing, "Both of you don't know how to make a contract with me anyway. As long as there is no contract, I am free. Even if you tie me up now, I will be able to run away sooner or later. .”

"Would you rather be tied up for a few more days than to free yourself as soon as possible?" Zhao Xun asked and emphasized, "Besides, you can't run away with my rope."

Magic Mirror was silent for a moment, and then asked angrily: "You have gone back on your word before, why do you think I can still trust you now?"

"When have I ever gone back on my word?" Zhao Xun showed a funny look, "I promised to help you terminate the contract, and I did it. But I never promised you that I would release you immediately after helping you terminate the contract."

Magic Mirror: "..."

Its silence is deafening.

Although he was angry, he had to admit that Zhao Xun had never promised to let him go immediately.

And Zhao Xun did what he promised.

In other words, Zhao Xun did keep his word, but he misunderstood himself.

"Then how do I know if there are other pits waiting for me behind?" Magic Mirror was very cautious.

Having just suffered a loss, it didn't dare to trust Zhao Xun easily.

"I promise that as long as you let Cinderella hold you and ask you a question after arriving at the destination, and you answer truthfully, I will let you go." After a pause, Zhao Xun added, "After success, follow-up I won’t trouble you again.”

This "after success" naturally refers to after the task is completed.

If it still didn't show that the task was completed under that situation, he would have to think of other ways, but he couldn't let go of the magic mirror.

Of course, he would not say this directly.

Magic Mirror thought for a while and reluctantly agreed: "Okay."

Judging from the previous situation, Zhao Xun is at least a man of his word, and he will definitely do what he promised.

At this point, Magic Mirror still has some trust in Zhao Xun.

And the promise this time is very detailed, so there should be no more mistakes.

Anyway, it's just answering a question. Even if the question is boring, it can resist the thought of complaining and answer it.

It wasn't until Zhao Xun and Magic Mirror reached an agreement that Cinderella said weakly: "But... I have many questions to ask."

"Then you can take advantage of the time on the road to think carefully about the question you want to ask the most." Zhao Xun looked at Cinderella, "Ask the question you want to ask the most."

"That's right." At this time, Magic Mirror and Zhao Xun were united, "I won't answer your series of questions. It will give you a headache."

Cinderella felt a little aggrieved, but now that the matter was over, she could only agree.

She knew that Zhao Xun had fought for her to have the opportunity to ask questions.

Otherwise, the magic mirror would not answer any of her questions at all.

It's better to be able to ask an answer to a question than to not be able to ask a question at all.

At least this trip away from home was not in vain.

After comforting herself in this way, Cinderella felt that the result was not bad, and her low mood eased a lot.

She began to analyze hard, thinking about what questions she should ask at that time.

Soon the half-hour break passed, and Zhao Xun and Cinderella walked forward together.

Compared with the previous speed, it was indeed much slower, but it also gave Zhao Xun time to recover.

The journey was fairly smooth. Apart from the chirping of insects along the road, we occasionally saw one or two small nocturnal animals.

But I didn't encounter any big beasts.

After walking like this for about an hour, Cinderella couldn't walk anymore.

She supported the tree trunk with one hand and rubbed her heel with the other.

She was wearing high heels, and the road in the forest was rugged, so a small piece of skin was worn out on her heels.

A little pain.

When Zhao Xun saw this, he didn't waste any time and directly turned into a leopard: "Come up."

"Sorry for causing you trouble." Cinderella apologized and thanked her sheepishly, and then climbed onto the leopard's body.

The two people started running wildly all the way again.

After running for about an hour and a half this time, we finally reached the border area.

Cinderella shined the bright flashlight in her hand at a man-high stone tablet erected on the ground, and said to Zhao Xun: "If you step over this stone, you will be out of the scope of this kingdom."

What is written on the stone tablet is "xx Kingdom Border Zone", and there is a logo belonging to the kingdom at the top, similar to the national emblem.

Zhao Xun had seen the exact same pattern in the palace and was sure that this was the logo of Snow White's kingdom.

So this is indeed the border.

Without saying a word, Zhao Xun immediately took Cinderella across the border.

Then he turned back into a human and motioned for Cinderella to start asking questions.

Cinderella held the handle of the magic mirror and asked nervously: "Am I the woman that the prince loves most?"

Zhao Xun stood aside, still holding one end of the [lively long rope] in his hand, and he quietly waited for the result.

I hope that after the magic mirror answers, Cinderella can truly possess the magic mirror for a period of time.

Then his mission is completed.

Otherwise, he would have to think of other ways.

The magic mirror replied: "Yes, the woman the prince loves most is you."

Cinderella blinked her eyes, and the uneasiness and nervousness she had been feeling turned into happiness and joy after hearing this answer.

The sky is slightly bright, and the morning sun is falling in every corner of the forest with the cool breeze, mixing with the fresh air, making people feel very happy.

Just like Cinderella at this moment, her face was filled with an unstoppable smile.

As long as she is sure that the prince loves her the most, she has nothing to fear.

She turned to look at Zhao Xun and thanked her sincerely: "Thank you. I can get the Queen's magic mirror only because of your dedicated help."

When he heard Cinderella say something similar to what the March Hare said at the end, Zhao Xun knew that his mission was completed.

So, he also laughed in a good mood: "You're welcome, this is what I should do."

"Hey, hey, I've answered her question, should I let me go?" Magic Mirror couldn't wait to shout, for fear that Zhao Xun would go back on his word.

"Of course." Zhao Xun retracted the [lively long rope] and untied the magic mirror.

Mo Jing didn't expect that Zhao Xun would be so cheerful this time and let go as soon as he said so.

It took two seconds to react, and then flew out like a wild horse.

"Hahahahahaha I'm free!" It laughed while running. Even after a long distance, the laughter could still be heard.

Cinderella watched the magic mirror disappear into the distance and said to Zhao Xun, "It's time for me to go back."

"Well," Zhao Xun didn't ask any questions, just waved to Cinderella, "Goodbye."

According to his last experience, when Cinderella leaves, he can escape from the limited scene.

So now he is eager for Cinderella to leave quickly.

Cinderella didn't know what Zhao Xun was thinking. She said goodbye to Zhao Xun and then turned to leave.

As Cinderella disappeared, the forest in front of Zhao Xun really changed.

Immediately afterwards, a pop-up window popped up in front of his eyes.

[Congratulations to player Zhao Xun for completing the mission of two fairy tale characters, successfully passing the game, and earning 100 points. 】

The next second, Zhao Xun's figure disappeared and returned to the endless train.

At this time, there was already a player standing outside the Endless Train. When he saw Zhao Xun appearing, the other player was startled.

Zhao Xun looked over and found that the other party was actually the player who entered the same limited scene as him, a young girl named Zhao Zhao.

This girl completed the task earlier than he did. It seemed that before he ran out of the border with Cinderella, this girl had already found the portrait that Snow White wanted most.

The girl subconsciously raised her hand and said hello: "Good morning."

Zhao Xun responded politely: "Good morning."

Afterwards, the two people stopped talking.

The girl rubbed the corners of her clothes uncomfortably and looked down at the tips of her shoes.

She wasn't used to the atmosphere being so quiet when other people were around, but she didn't know what to say to liven up the atmosphere.

Compared with girls who are too thoughtful, Zhao Xun seems much more comfortable.

He habitually took out his cell phone and checked the time.

September 28th at 6:32 am.

There is still more than a day before the train departs, which is good, enough time for him to recharge his batteries.

Zhao Xun skillfully took out his sleeping bag and lay down on the spot to rest.

This time he fell asleep very quickly, almost falling asleep as soon as he lay down.

The girl watched in stunned silence as Zhao Xun fell asleep like this, remembering that she had seen a player sleeping outside before the train departed.

However, her mind was mostly focused on completing the task, and she did not pay much attention to the other party's appearance.

It wasn't until this moment that she knew Zhao Xun was that person.

After Zhao Xun fell asleep, the girl was not so nervous. She chose a place a little further away, sat down on the train wheels, and dozed off.

The two of them stayed together peacefully for several hours, and then other players appeared one after another.

At this time, all players knew that if they got on the bus without enough time, they would probably not be able to complete their personal tasks for the day, so they basically chose to rest on the spot.

By midnight on the 29th, most players were on board.

There were only three or four people left outside.

Zhao Xun is one of them.

While waiting, Zhao Xun checked the points needed to upgrade his special ability from lv4 to lv5.

1000 points.

These points are double the amount required to upgrade to level 4. It seems that he will not be able to upgrade in a short time.

In his idle time, Zhao Xun finished all the biscuits, bread and crispy noodles he bought before.

But I still feel hungry.

After all his mental energy was consumed, his hunger was stronger than usual, and the more he ate these things, the more he ate, the food seemed bland and tasteless. He now wanted to eat meat very much.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Zhao Xun took out a can of beef from his hiking bag.

He really needs to supplement meat protein. If he doesn't eat now, he will have to wait until dawn tomorrow to go to a regular restaurant.

However, tomorrow is the 30th. If nothing else happens, on the night of the 30th, all remaining new players will enter the veteran player area based on their rankings.

He didn't want to end up in last place in the points ranking just because he had two big meals.

From both perspectives, it is a better choice to eat existing canned beef.

Zhao Xun quickly finished a whole can of beef and finally felt a lot more comfortable. Even his mental state was mostly improved.

He stood up and stood at the door of carriage 14, ready to get on the train.

Midnight on the 29th is coming soon.

After successfully getting into the car, a familiar pop-up window appeared.

[Welcome player Zhao Xun back to Endless Train. 】

Then the electronic sound from the train's horn sounded.

[Congratulations to all passengers for another successful day. 】

[The points ranking of all passengers has been released, please check it yourself. 】

Zhao Xun clicked on his personal panel.

[Player: Zhao Xun]

[Points: 305]

[Ranking: 170]

[Special ability: Devouring lv4, currently devouring special ability [gold control], ability [resurrection rage], special ability [lightning control], special ability [beast transformation lv2]]

[Special items: Lively long rope, hot blood, goddess’s wings, princess’s prince pendant, primate’s blessing]

Zhao Xun looked at the line [Ranking: 170] and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Compared with most players on the train, his current points count should be less.

Although he is not ranked last, there is a high probability that he is at the bottom.

Under such circumstances, he can still be at 170. It seems that the number of veteran players is really very small.

In other words, during the month he was a new player, old players also died, and the number continued to decrease.

So at the end of the month, he was able to squeeze into the 170th place with such a low number of points.

To be honest, including the remaining new players, the total number of players on the train should be less than two hundred.

[The last one in the points ranking on September 29 is No. 113 of the 12-car train, which will receive assistance and encouragement measures. 】

[The train will return to the departure station at 0:00 on October 1. All passengers are asked to be prepared. 】

[Friendly report: There are currently 16 new players remaining. 】

In this platform game, all new players except Xiaohong participated. Only 15 people passed the level alive and 11 people died.

This ratio is much better than the last platform game, but there were only 16 new players left out of the original 1,000 by the end of the month, with a survival rate of less than 2%.

It's really very, very low.

And based on this calculation, the number of veteran players was indeed smaller than what he had budgeted for at the beginning of the month.

Another thing is that the train will return to the departure station at zero o'clock on the 1st of every month. This is normal, but later it says "all passengers please be prepared". What specific preparations are it?

Ready to change cabins and seats?

Apart from that, he couldn't think of anything else for the time being.

[Player Zhao Xun’s personal mission on September 30th: Destroy one of your own weapons. 】

Zhao Xun took it for granted when he saw new pop-up windows and familiar and unchanged tasks.

"Ah Shui." Xiao Hong said suddenly.

Zhao Xun came to his senses and looked at Xiao Hong: "Is something wrong?"

"Yesterday, a woman named Tiantian came to see you," Xiao Hong replied. "When she saw that you were not here, she asked me to help her pass a message to you."

"What words?" Zhao Xun asked.

Xiaohong told the truth: "We will meet on time at 11:30 noon tomorrow at an ordinary restaurant."

Zhao Xun's heart beat faster for a moment, but then calmed down the next second.

If it was Shaozi who got the news about his parents, then Shaozi should come to him.

He and Shaozi not only met, but also had a contract with each other. There was no need for Shaozi to contact him through Tiantian.

Since it was Tiantian who came here, it was unlikely that it was related to his parents.

"Okay, I understand." Zhao Xun nodded.

Neither of them said anything else and fell asleep quickly.

After being on the train for a month, Xiaohong felt that the biggest change in herself was that she developed the habit of falling asleep even while sitting.

*

September 30th.

8am.

Zhao Xun woke up.

He first went to the bathroom to wash up, broke one of his kitchen knives, completed his personal task, and then went to an ordinary restaurant to buy a meat bun to eat.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished eating the meat buns, he met Tiantian who was walking to an ordinary restaurant.

Tiantian showed a bright smile and walked quickly to Zhao Xun: "What a coincidence, I didn't expect us to meet so early."

She sat down directly opposite Zhao Xun and said with a smile, "In that case, we don't have to wait until noon to meet again."

"What do you want from me?" Zhao Xun raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Didn't I say when we met here last time that you could come and play with me, but you never came." Tiantian curled her lips, a little unhappy, "Then I can only take the initiative to come to you. .”

"I thought it wouldn't be too late to go to the old player area after becoming an old player, so I didn't plan to go there in the first month." Zhao Xun answered truthfully.

He initially wanted to explore the old player area, mainly to see if he could find his parents.

But after confirming that his parents were dead, he no longer had the urge to explore the old player area.

"After tonight, you will be an old player," Tiantian tilted her head and looked at Zhao Xun, her beautiful cat eyes blinking innocently, looking very innocent, "Are you happy?"

"It's not bad." Zhao Xun supported his chin with one hand and smiled at Tiantian, "Did you come to me just to chat?"

"Yes," the sweet smile was also very sweet, "We are friends. I am happy that you have successfully become an old player. I wanted to celebrate for you, so I came to see you."

"Thank you very much." Zhao Xun continued to smile.

He didn't think Tiantian came to him just to celebrate that he was about to become an old player, but since Tiantian didn't say anything, he didn't ask.

Anyway, it wasn't him who was anxious.

Sure enough, after half a minute of stalemate, Tiantian couldn't help but speak again.

She asked: "It stands to reason that you should have cleared the platform game three times, right? I went to see you the day before yesterday, but the lady sitting next to you said that you participated in the platform game again. Is it to accumulate points as soon as possible?"

"Yes." Zhao Xun admitted frankly.

There is nothing to hide, any fool can guess it.

"Then how many points do you have now?" Tiantian asked again.

"Why are you asking this?" Zhao Xun chuckled, "And you should know that I can't possibly answer you this question."

"Oh, actually what I want to know is your ranking, not really how many points you have~" Tiantian waved her hand, "I want to know if you will be in the same car with me."

At this point, she seemed to have just remembered something, and then added: "I shouldn't have told you before, right? The seats for veteran players are all arranged according to ranking."

"What car number are you in?" Zhao Xun asked.

"Didn't I tell you last time? I'm in carriage No. 6." Tiantian scolded, "You don't have a very good memory."

"Then we shouldn't be in the same carriage," Zhao Xun innocently spread his hands, "My ranking is very low."

"It seems like you have upgraded your special abilities several times." Tiantian's eyes became bright and she seemed very happy, "Actually, I do have something to do with you."
