Locked up again.
Being locked up in a small dark room is not scary, but being locked up by the same person twice is very scary.
Ning Bu Wen opened his eyes and found that Cheng Yuxue had changed his tactics this time.
The last time they were physically restrained with iron chains, but this time it was different.
Ning Buwen was not restrained at all, but was placed on a huge sofa with a humanized design. He opened his eyes and saw that the entire wall was covered with photos of himself, or rather, his original self Zhou Qi.
From infancy to adolescence, and up to the present day, when Zhou Qi has changed his core and become Ning Buwen’s version, there are all kinds of photos. Some of them are so beautiful that Ning Buwen himself can’t even remember where they were taken.
If you look at it from a normal perspective, this is definitely the behavior of a perverted stalker.
But Cheng Yuxue himself is not normal.
Although his brain circuit is not quite right, he can fight, cheat, and is damn smart. As long as he can achieve his goal, he can do anything. If you say that Cheng Yuxue has no bottom line, he does have a bottom line. He never kills innocent people indiscriminately, and never takes action just because others scold him. But if you say that he has a bottom line, Cheng Yuxue really has no bottom line.
If he really had a bottom line, he wouldn't have locked him up twice in a row.
In other words, I would rather not ask or care about these things.
If it were someone else, and they were treated like this by their ambiguous object, even if that was his previous ambiguous object, their relationship would be doomed after the dungeon was opened.
Therefore, in Ning Buwen's eyes, this wall of photos became irrefutable evidence that Cheng Yuxue had seen through him.
"I've analyzed you carefully." Cheng Yuxue sat at the other end of the room, looking at Ning Buwen with interest. "Your change should have started on the eve of becoming a formal member. From that time on, you took the initiative to find a waiter to inquire about the formalization of other legions. After that, you lived alone, and then began to shine in the dungeon, and had a group of people loyal to you."
Ning Buwen broke out in a cold sweat. Did Cheng Yuxue investigate so clearly
"The first time I thought you were strange was at the auction. You seemed to care a lot about the man named Wu Deng. But I checked, and you two had no connection at all. Logically, you should not have even heard of his name, so why did you go out of your way to check him out? Then you escaped from me and became the leader of Unit 111. It should have been the time for you to make great plans, but you suddenly gave up and ran over here to join a small underground organization, and then started looking for derivative fragments. No matter how I look at it, your knowledge and experience seem to have fallen out of thin air."
Ning Buwen definitely has some flaws.
It is impossible for a person to completely transform into another person, so Ning Buwen rarely takes his original self seriously, but completes the task at his own pace. If he had always disguised himself as Zhou Qi, he would probably still be a nobody in a low-level dungeon.
However, most people would not notice these flaws. It was just Ning Buwen's bad luck that he was targeted by Cheng Yuxue.
"You're not the first person I've met who showed familiarity with me." Cheng Yuxue looked at Ning Buwen lazily, "It's just that I have no interest in that person, and he looks quite afraid of me. It's better for you to be so natural to me."
No, no, no, how could my attitude be natural? I was clearly on guard against you like a wolf, it was you who shamelessly broke through my defenses.
"Haha, the person you are talking about should be the leader of the No. 6 Legion." Ning Buwen tried his best to smile more gently. Compared with his tough attitude, Cheng Yuxue might be a little more soft-hearted. "I think he must have heard of your reputation, so he doesn't dare to be too presumptuous."
"What did you call me?" Cheng Yuxue touched his chin, "King? This title is interesting and sounds good."
… and probably no one thinks it’s good except you.
I have always felt that this title does not match your style. Do you think you are some kind of mountain king? It is a different era now, and the constitutional monarchy has been abandoned in the long river of history, and there is no trace of it at all, okay
Ning Buwen's heart has become an emotionless complaining machine.
He was afraid that if he said it out loud, Cheng Yuxue would become even more interested.
After all, Ning Buwen has known Cheng Yuxue for such a long time, so he should know clearly what can hurt him.
"This title was created for you, the king." Ning Bu Wen's servile appearance at this moment was exactly the same as that of the security team members.
Cheng Yuxue seemed to be somewhat happy after being coaxed.
After spending a long time with the members of the security team, Ning knew how to talk to Cheng Yuxue without asking.
Although he himself didn't really want this bootlickering skill, he had to admit that this move was damn effective in dealing with Cheng Yuxue.
Cheng Yuxue was comforted a lot.
"You speak very pleasantly." Cheng Yuxue's tone was light and cheerful, "But the more you speak like this, the more it proves that you know what I like to hear and what I don't like to hear. This only reveals that you are more familiar with me than I thought."
The smile on Ning Buwen’s face froze.
Why isn't it over yet
"Suddenly, two strangers appeared in succession and both knew me. They acted as if they were very familiar with me. This can't be a coincidence." Cheng Yuxue made the final decision without even giving Ning Buyen a chance to refute. "Also, the leader of the No. 6 Legion also tried to find someone, but he gave up after a while, just like you did."
Ning Buwen didn't dare to say anything now.
It was true that they had revealed too many flaws. Who could he go to for justice? Could he just hit Cheng Yuxue with a hammer and make him stupid
This obviously won't work.
Therefore, facing Cheng Yuxue's questioning, Ning Buwen had no other feelings except for a little pity for Jamal who had been questioned by him before.
If you are not as skilled as others, you should admit defeat.
"In this situation, I can only think of one explanation." Cheng Yuxue deliberately paused for a moment, looked at Ning Buwen and said, "Do you want to guess what explanation I can think of?"
The whiteness that Ning Buwen wants to turn over the sky.
"I am just a prisoner locked up by you now. Why is it popular for prisoners to give advice to other prisoners now?"
Is Cheng Yuxue stupid
"Just because others can't do it doesn't mean I can't do it." Cheng Yuxue said this as if it was a matter of course, "I like to force others to do things that are difficult for me."
But I don’t like it!
Ning Buwen refuted frantically in his heart.
"You both seem to be very curious about this world, and you are both doing well. The most important thing is, you have never met before, and your ages are not the same, but your methods of governing the legion are similar. You know each other, or at least you are from the same place."
As Cheng Yuxue spoke, he observed Ning Buwen's expression and found that Ning Buwen simply closed his eyes, pretending to be a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water, so as to avoid being discovered by Cheng Yuxue.
Well, this looks pretty decent, and it looks like he died a heroic death. But Cheng Yuxue knew that the man in front of him was not someone who would sacrifice his life for a cause.
"I originally thought that you might be the leader of the No. 6 Legion, and you became a different person because of something that happened in the dungeon. I observed you for a while and confirmed that you are not him." Cheng Yuxue seemed a little regretful. "He can pretend to be a Legacy, but he is not a Legacy. You also showed a determination to obtain the derivative fragments. I knew that you are also a player. However, you are not our ninth-generation players, but you are from the future. So you have more advanced knowledge of legion management, and you also know the secrets of Pandora and the Legacy. That Wu Deng may be the Legacy of this generation, so you know me."
Ning Buwen's thoughts were already empty.
This kind of incredible thing is hard to believe, but Cheng Yuxue just likes to think in this direction, and he almost guessed it right.
This made Ning Buwen wonder if Pandora's customer service had shown Cheng Yuxue the script in advance, otherwise how could he have guessed it so accurately
"Since you are so familiar with me, you should know my character. You are from the future, and this kind of thing will only interest me. If you explain it to me clearly, I will definitely help you." Cheng Yuxue stretched out his hand and pried open Ning Buwen's eyelids.
There is nowhere to put the eyeballs.
Ning Buwen's expression was somewhat ferocious, as if he had accepted his fate. "Let go, can't I open my eyes?"
Only then did Cheng Yuxue let go.
"Yes, yes, you are right. We are not from the ninth generation of players. We are from the future." Ning Buwen replied unhappily, "We are from the eighteenth generation."
"Eighteen generations?" Cheng Yuxue seemed stunned for a moment, "So it's nine generations of failure. How could I live to that age?"
Seeing the rare look of confusion on Cheng Yuxue's face, Ning Buwen felt a pain in his heart.
For Cheng Yuxue, the news that he would have to live for another nine generations and that players had failed for nine generations in succession was probably not something to be happy about.
"It's okay. Our generation has become very powerful." Ning Buwen subconsciously comforted him, "I am just a captain in our army, and Wen Duoduo is just an ordinary team member, but you see we can all be the leaders in this era. We are getting stronger with each generation, and what your generation has done is not in vain."
"Failure is failure, there is no excuse for it." Cheng Yuxue shook his head slowly, "If you really are from the future, then I should have the memory of the present. But you didn't come to me. I believe that if I hadn't met you, you probably wouldn't have taken the initiative to ask me for help."
"Not really. If I really can't handle it, I will definitely come to you for help." Ning Buwen laughed and said, "It's just that you, my king, are too uncontrollable, and your thinking is different from ours. A trump card like yours must be saved for last."
"You are not from the future." Cheng Yuxue looked into Ning Buwen's eyes and said, "We are not the past either, not the real ninth generation. Our world is a false copy, so you don't dare to come to me for help, afraid that Pandora will control me and cause trouble for you in the end, right?"
Ning Bu Wen was stunned.
This is a bit too cheating.
Is Cheng Yuxue of this era so sensitive
"Don't worry, even if I'm not the real me, I'm still Cheng Yuxue." Cheng Yuxue didn't care whether he was real or fake. "If it's a hidden copy of a full-fledged simulation, then I should be no different from the real person. Generally speaking, Pandora won't suddenly destroy my logic and make me do something that would ruin your mission, so you can trust me."
He really didn't seem to care.
"You... you don't care at all?" Ning Buwen asked cautiously, "I'm not even a real person, just an NPC."
"What's wrong with NPCs?" Cheng Yuxue raised his eyebrows slightly. "I don't know if the real Cheng Yuxue has ever told you that players can actually become NPCs."
"What did you say?" Ning Buwen was shocked. "How is this possible?"
"Nothing is impossible in Pandora." Cheng Yuxue smiled. "There are so many worlds in Pandora, and it needs many NPCs to maintain the normal operation of the dungeon world. Especially those high-level dungeons, because the players who enter each have powerful prop cards and abilities, it is easy to mess up the world, so it needs NPCs who can compete with these players. But if it relies on itself to generate everything, it will be too troublesome. On the contrary, if the player has the qualifications and is willing to become an NPC, it only needs to remove some of the player's sense of identity as a human being. This is much faster than waiting for the NPC to develop self-awareness."
The only ones who can compete with players are naturally the NPCs who were once players.
Pandora can produce NPCs for dungeon plot actions, but it cannot create an independent individual from scratch.
I don't know how many times I have to go through the dungeon before there is a one in ten thousand or even one in a hundred thousand chance of an NPC appearing with his own thinking ability.
"If you are about to die in a dungeon one day, I believe that Pandora will take notice of you with your ability." Cheng Yuxue laughed, "This is also normal, think about it, in a complex dungeon, in a general plot-based dungeon, doesn't Pandora require you to play the role of an NPC to follow the plot? This is actually cultivating your ability to become an NPC."
"But you don't know this news. It's probably just to prevent you from becoming an NPC." Cheng Yuxue laughed, "The world is unfair. Most players don't have the ability to become an NPC, but some can. The more powerful the player, the higher the chance. If this news spreads, it's very likely that those top players will want to become NPCs and enjoy an immortal life without having to worry about their own safety. Then who would want to save the earth?"
Pandora can give you the stability, longevity, family, friends, and lover that players want. Even the things you have lost can be found again for you.
Faced with such temptation, how many people can resist
"Your current appearance is not your original appearance, right?" Cheng Yuxue squatted in front of Ning Buwen, who was suffering from indigestion, and asked curiously, "What was your original name? Let me guess, um, your name is Ning Buwen?"
No way, can you guess this
"This is not my guess. When I met the leader of the No. 6 Legion before, his name was Ning Buwen, but he came to ask me if I knew someone named Ning Buwen. So I knew that the name was not his. You are very much my taste, and you have known me for such a long time, so there is a high possibility that you are Ning Buwen."
"Yes, I am Ning Buwen." Ning Buwen gritted his teeth, feeling that he could not continue to lose at this point. He was almost squeezed by Cheng Yuxue and had no place to stand.
That won't work.
Losing to Cheng Yuxue of the eighteenth generation would be fine, but it’s too embarrassing that even Cheng Yuxue of the eighth generation can play tricks on me.
Ning Bu Wen stood up, walked to Cheng Yuxue, mustered up his courage, stood on tiptoe and kissed Cheng Yuxue on the forehead.
"My dear, now that I've been exposed, I'm not afraid to tell you. I'm a player from the eighteenth generation. If you don't ask, we were already married in the eighteenth generation!"
Cheng Yuxue lost his composure for the first time in his life.
The author has something to say: Ning Bu Wen: Author, you can't reveal the script to him anymore, this game can't go on.
