Weird Regulator

To this day, Ji Li still cannot find out the goal that game players are pursuing from the fragmented plot.

The lack of a prologue and the disappearance of the third act make the game's plot even more confusing.

The two worlds of the game and reality are mixed and integrated, causing the plot to become deformed and disorderly.

With the appearance of many clues and the appearance of vermilion wood carvings, an abstract but real main line is finally constructed.

Although, this road will be extremely difficult to go down.

On the sixteenth floor, Fang Shenyan got the theory of "curse transmission", and Su Chenghe was still waiting there.

But in fact, this curse propagation theory can be applied to today's conjectures, but it has long been different.

The solution to the matter is not in the real world. Su Chenghe is destined to wait in vain and be completely eliminated.

The real "curse" comes from the root world.

Only in the real world can one obtain the identity of a faceless person and be given the qualification to open doors;

Complete the game world, get the final goal, and give the key to the faceless man.

Only by opening the door can we see what the "curse" is and then try to crack it.

It is a three-step process. In fact, today’s store managers have only reached the first step.

…

Real world, tenth floor.

There were only three store managers walking out of room 1001.

They are Fang Shenyan, Clyde and Huangfu Jiajia.

Li Guanqi and Xue Tinghai, enemies who had been entangled since the beginning of the mission, gave up one after another.

Xue Tinghai has completed the task assigned by the first branch. Although the cost is high, he finally got his wish.

As for his younger brother, he is still stuck in the first act of the game.

However, because of Gu Qingyun, he probably knew some inside information.

"Find game bugs", this thing is true.

Game participants have a chance of winning.

So he has lost the meaning of fighting.

Li Guanqi had mixed emotions at this time. He didn't want to give up, but he had a very clear understanding of himself.

With his strength, he shouldn't even come to the tenth floor.

If there wasn't a hidden trump card that even he himself didn't know about, this would be the grave where he was buried.

In the dark room, Li Guanqi was in a daze for a moment when he thought of the palm that brushed over his head.

Chen Hansheng, he already has the answer to what the sinful thing he is coveting is.

This sinful object is destined not to be stolen by others, and has disappeared forever.

Li Congrong originally obtained two criminal objects on the fourth floor.

One is black clothes and soft armor, and the other is a special sinful object.

This sinful object is ineffective against oneself and can only be inflicted on outsiders.

The effect is that after death, the person turns into a possessed ghost, hovering around that person day and night.

Once that person is in a life or death crisis, you can take action to stop him.

This is just the general information that Li Guanqi got from going back and scrutinizing what happened.

But the actual situation is actually far more cruel and tragic than what Li Guanqi saw.

And he would never have imagined how loving Li Congrong was to him.

…

As Clyde walked in the silent corridor, the two people around him spoke, and the atmosphere began to become solemn again.

In the black box world, the scene of six store managers fighting against Gu Xingjian is still lingering in his mind.

Gu Xingjian is really dead.

Although it only cost him one resurrection coin and he still had one life, this was already a great victory.

But going further down, Clyde knew what he was going to face.

Ten real-life participants, not counting myself, six have appeared now.

Su Chenghe, Xue Tinghai, Li Guanqi, Huangfu Jiajia, Fang Shenyan.

This means that the people he will meet next will represent the top three store managers of the top ten branches:

Li Yi, Chen Hansheng, Luo Xian!

Of course, everyone, not just Clyde, would automatically ignore the most inconspicuous store manager.

On the tenth floor, no matter which store manager task you are on, it is a watershed moment.

Clyde was naturally in a hurry, because his goal had always been to obtain a crime that was readily available to him.

But such a simple goal has not been achieved so far.

Even on the tenth floor, he encountered Gu Xingjian in advance and forcibly broke up with him.

And what does the so-called victory have to do with him...

Huangfu Jiajia's slender fingers tore the candy wrapper over and over again and wrapped it back again and again.

His originally lively personality could not say anything to lighten the mood at this time.

In fact, if it weren't for the fact that Bao An lost contact in the fourth act, she would not have been able to continue downward at all.

Bao An is similar in age to her, but he is much more mature than her in both his temperament and his actions.

For such a long time, Huangfu Jiajia has become accustomed to relying on him.

Unlike Xue Tinghai, she distrusted Gu Qingyun very much.

So he had no interest in the game loophole at all, and Bao An had the same idea.

This means that even if Bao An does not stop, Huangfu Jiajia must also proceed in reality and respond at any time.

"Li Yi, Chen Hansheng, Luo Xian..."

Huangfu Jiajia finally put the piece of candy into her mouth, but without tasting it, she bit it into pieces.

She gradually turned her gaze to the man beside her who remained silent.

So far, the first ten levels have eliminated almost half of the real-world participants.

Looking at the three people traveling with him, I am afraid that only Store Manager Fang is truly qualified to continue the journey.

As for Fang Shenyan, what he was thinking about at this time was certainly not about crises or difficulties...

He repeatedly recalled the scene after getting the vermilion wood carving.

In fact, with the help of the Bracelet of Cycles, Fang Shenyan briefly became a faceless person.

The faceless person represents the ultimate goal in the real world and has the authority to open the door.

But how to completely transform one's identity is a difficult question after all.

"Who are you?"

However, at this moment, a strange voice suddenly sounded in Fang Shenyan's ears.

But when he raised his head, he didn't see anyone.

Clyde and Huangfu Jiajia seemed not to have heard anything and continued walking down with their own concerns.

Fang Shenyan couldn't help but feel stagnant. He slowly raised his head and looked at the wall of the corridor.

This is the third floor.

He stopped here, but Clyde and Huangfu Jiajia disappeared into the dark corridor.

…

In the game world, Ji Li spent a lot of time reviewing the plots that had happened one by one.

There are still no clear answers to many doubts.

In the end, he could only place his hope on the video tape that had not been played for a long time.

It represents the fourth act and will guide Ji Li to the next clue.

"Crunch..."

When the videotape entered the player, there was an obvious sound of card reading, and the old-fashioned player brought bursts of friction sounds.

After a while, the TV, which had been black for a long time, suddenly turned on, but the picture was still dim.

Ji Li frowned and took a few steps forward. He was very close, but he still couldn't see the specific picture clearly.

It seemed to be an endless corridor, and the sporadic moonlight could not illuminate the dark ground at all.

"Huh...huh...huh..."

It seemed like a person's breathing, very close, causing the sound to be extremely heavy, as if it was attached to the microphone.

"Puff puff……"

The camera slowly zoomed out, and a distorted black spot finally came into view.

The gasping sound was inaudible, replaced by that weird "pop" sound.

The black spot is a person crawling in the dark corridor.

Judging from the body width, he has a sense of direction and goal, and is crawling along one end of the corridor to the other.

Ji Li always stared at his back, because at this time, there was clearly something chasing him on the screen.

He is more like a seriously injured escaper.

In the darkness, something behind him is really about to appear.

It was a row of parallel black shadows, all with humanoid shapes but different sizes, numbering four in number.

Just as the picture progressed further, Ji Li could identify them more carefully.

The camera suddenly turned around and focused on the crawling man's face, almost touching each other.

Its face, however, has no face, yet it is different.

Different from the faceless people I had seen before, its face had been torn off abruptly, with blood tendons and broken flesh still hanging on it.

The picture froze, and a line of bloody words seeped out from in front of the TV:

"You see me and I see you!!!"
