Forces of Temptation

Chapter 289: Ant (12)

Views:

The moon is gradually sinking, and the brightest scene is gone.

The news came back one after another.

But there is no exciting news.

Except for the extra iron box in the town, there is nothing superfluous at all.

The clues about the "ticket" are still the moon in the water, the flowers in the mirror, and even the specific appearance is hazy and uncertain.

The second search round of the three worlds is over.

So far, Nan Zhou can basically be sure that he has not figured out the real gameplay of the game.

And the early search for evidence wasted too much time for him.

There were only a few hours left until the train from nowhere left.

Thinking of this, Nan Zhou jumped off the balcony railing and tapped on the window glass of the balcony.

He didn't know what {Jiang Fang} in the room was thinking to himself, and the faint red cloud and water vapor crawled around his face, and it didn't go away for a long time.

He gave Nan Zhou a fluttering glance, meaning what do you want to do to me.

Nan Zhou didn't know that {Jiang Fang} had unilaterally decided that he was a stinky rascal who would do anything to pass the border, and politely knocked on the window glass again: "Please help me think about how to pass the border. "

{Jiang Fang} fanned the air with his palms to cool his cheeks, and squinted him calmly with natural smiling eyes: "Sorry, I'm not as knowledgeable as Mr. Nan, so I can't come up with such an idea."

Thinking that Nan Zhou would be cheeky to ask him for love, {Jiang Fang} exerted force with one hand and wrinkled the bed.

Nan Zhou noticed that the expression on his face was changing. He gritted his teeth for a while, and then avoided his eyes for a while, suddenly realizing it.

… He thought that {Jiang Fang} had already figured out the joints.

He explained: "Mr. Jiang, hello, it's like this, I don't want to have sex with you."

{Jiang Fang}: "…"

Nan Zhou: "I don't care about this, but there is only one person who makes me have the urge to reproduce. I just put forward an idea of customs clearance, please don't take it to heart."

{Jiang Fang}: "…"

Nan Zhou thought that his confession was quite sincere, enough to resolve the misunderstanding between the two.

{Jiang Fang} was silent for a long time strangely, biting the flesh on the side of his lips with a calm expression.

After a while, he gave a stiff "ha" and changed the subject reluctantly: "...You ask me how to pass the test?"

Nan Zhou: "Yeah."

He needs to talk to smart people to develop his own ideas.

{Jiang Fang}: "Aren't you afraid that I will deliberately induce you to think in the wrong direction?"

Nan Zhou is not afraid: "I will think for myself."

{Jiang Fang} asked again: "Why should I help you? Who knows what will happen to me after you leave?"

Having said that, he pressed Nan Zhou's forehead with his backhand, and said with a half-smile, "If my world collapses and I don't have a home to return, how will you compensate me?"

After that, he lightly patted Nan Zhou's forehead back.

This is indeed a problem.

Nan Zhou kept his body leaning back, thinking seriously about {Jiang Fang}'s concerns.

Seeing that he couldn't answer for a while, {Jiang Fang} raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "Save it, Mr. Nan, I won't help you, even if I think of something, I won't tell you."

Nan Zhou asked back, "You hate me?"

{Jiang Fang}: "Ha, do you think you are very likable?"

Nan Zhou looked into his eyes: "If the game fails, I might stay here forever—"

In order to make himself look even more annoying, he applied the yin and yang tone particles in the system when announcing tasks: "—Oh."

{Jiang Fang}: "…"

… sly little monsters!

First he forced himself to say he hated him, and then threatened himself to stay.

Does he have to admit that he doesn't hate him

{Jiang Fang} gritted his teeth and was sulking with himself for a long time, and then asked in a vicious voice: "The achievements you just mentioned... How many did you collect?"

Nan Zhou: "Five."

{Jiang Fang}: "How much is the upper limit?"

Nan Zhou: "I don't know."

During the Q&A, {Jiang Fang} quickly adjusted his mental state, put his finger on his lower lip, and nodded implicitly: "Your ultimate goal is to get a 'ticket'. Some physical 'tickets' can't be done."

Nan Zhou took his words: "If you want to get a 'ticket', it may be to try to improve the overall evaluation and playability of the game, or it may be... If you get all the achievements, you will be rewarded with a 'ticket'."

{Jiang Fang} raised his chin, disapproving of Nan Zhou's speculation: "Hmph, you just said that the upper limit of all achievements is 'I don't know'. Since you don't know how many achievements you have made to be considered 'full achievements', you Aren't you afraid this is another trick to waste your time?"

"This is just a way of customs clearance that can be considered," Nan Zhou explained.

{Jiang Fang} snorted again, noncommittal.

{Jiang Fang} knew that Nan Zhou's analysis of "Full Achievement" was reasonable.

His thorns were just intentional, he just wanted to hit him with a few words.

As long as he is willing to be soft on himself and not talk to him in such a rigid manner, {Jiang Fang} will not be so angry.

After enumerating the current two possible ways to pass the customs, both sides fell into silence.

Nan Zhou was thinking about other ways to play.

{Jiang Fang} is trying to toss Nanzhou.

Soon, he came up with an idea, and the corner of his mouth unconsciously raised a smile: "Hey, I also thought of a third way of playing here, do you want to hear it?"

Nan Zhou: "Well, I want to hear it. What is it?"

{Jiang Fang} picked up the box that was on the side, smashed the lock without warning, dodged to a corner of the room, and gave him a sly wink: "...you have to be patient."

The moment Nan Zhou understood what he wanted to do, {Jiang Fang} had already opened the lid.

"Wait-"

Before he could stop it, the third world collapsed at an extremely fast speed.

The surrounding light sources were shattered like glass, and Nanzhou fell into a drowsy darkness.

The reorganization of the world is only in the blink of an eye.

For Nan Zhou, he just blinked his eyes and saw his body, which was broken with the world, gradually put together again.

He reappeared on the roof.

- When the world is reorganized, the refresh point of the iron box is uncertain, and the birth point of the personnel is fixed.

This time, Nan Zhou quickly stood on his feet, slipped down along the curvature of the roof, landed on one foot, and landed on the balcony. When he looked into the house, {Jiang Fang} was leaning against the bed rail, her body trembled, her face and lips were all over the place. It was snow-white, and looked very tired.

Nan Zhou pushed open the balcony door, walked into the house, and determined the time: "One and a half hours."

{Jiang Fang} understood his words as disapproving of his slow movements, gouged him out, panted slightly, and said, "...I'm already... very soon."

Fortunately, the scope of the towns in the three boxes is limited, and the layout of the houses is only slightly different. {Jiang Fang} also aims to explore the way, looking for a tin box to cross the world instead of a "ticket", relatively speaking, The action is already fast.

All in all, he took the longest in the first box world.

Because there is no help.

"After you saw me in the second box, you quickly understood that you were quite cooperative." {Jiang Fang} pouted, "Much stronger than you."

Nan Zhou sighed: "It's too sudden."

{Jiang Fang} is weak, but still maintains a proud demeanor: "I just like to see you unhappy. If you are unhappy, I will be happy."

Hearing this, Nan Zhou lowered the corner of his mouth.

{Jiang Fang} couldn't help laughing: "What are you doing?"

Nan Zhou: "I'll make you happy. I'll make you stop taking risks."

{Jiang Fang} sat down on the bed and snorted, "If you don't want me to use your tasks to do experiments casually, just say it, I don't want to help you that much."

"No." Nan Zhou told the truth, "I'm afraid the iron box will hurt you. I hope that after I finish the task and leave, you all will be fine."

{Jiang Fang} froze for a moment, leaned on the head of the bed boringly, and closed his eyes.

After all, he is not Nanzhou. Although his physical functions have become strong in the long-term struggle with Guangmei, he is still somewhat unable to withstand the tearing of time and space.

{Jiang Fang}'s adventurous behavior did not lead to any clues related to the "ticket", but just proved that no matter who of the three of them is, as long as they open the box and do the iron box task, they can return to the original point.

As an extra, there is only one achievement of unknown purpose.

[Ant's] The other little friends also wanted to see the world, and the little ants excitedly pointed their way to them and said "have fun".

With the return of {Jiang Fang} to this world, the new iron box is also refreshed in this world.

Coincidentally, this time the iron box happened to appear on the table in {Jiang Fang}'s room, saving them the trouble of searching for it.

Nan Zhou picked up the iron box and was not in a hurry to open it again, but placed it in the palm of his hand and studied it in detail.

Although the patterns above are complicated, most of them are composed of rhombus and patterns, and there is no other meaning.

Observing, observing, Nan Zhou's thoughts suddenly moved.

Before he could speak, {Jiang Fang} suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Hey, do you think these three nested worlds look like a small train?"

This just spoke Nan Zhou's heart.

Each tin box is rectangular, with the same size and pattern. Even the content of the town is very similar, and it is indeed similar to the train carriage.

"I have seen the schematic diagram of the train in the book." {Jiang Fang} explained, "The train is connected one by one, and there will be a certain buffer zone in the middle. We pass through a box and come to the next one. Box."

Nan Zhou answered: "Moreover, the train is one-way, there is no turning back, we can't jump directly from the No. 1 car to the No. 3 car. This is very similar."

"Assuming we're already on a train that we don't even notice... wait, no."

{Jiang Fang} pursed her pale lips tightly, not paying attention to what she said earlier, "I won't help you", and was immersed in this unprecedented puzzle.

He said: "If every train was the same, it would be very strange for you to show up."

"We all have our own car, only you are an outsider. That is, there is no one in your car until you come. The car doesn't really start running until you come. That's the ticket. 'Could it be already on you?"

Nan Zhou said, "I don't have it in my warehouse."

He checked.

{Jiang Fang} spread out his hands: "Then I don't know. You are the only thing that comes out of these three worlds."

Nan Zhou's face changed suddenly.

... He had heard this before.

In the alley, {Jiang Fang} stretched out his hand leisurely in the face of the embarrassed self.

Ask him himself if he has found anything like a ticket in town.

At that time, {Jiang Fang} joked in the same tone: "'Something extra'? Then it's only you."

To Nan Zhou, who was seriously injured and lost blood, this answer was like a gnat, drowned in the sound of tinnitus, so weak that it could not be heard.

At that time, he only noticed a slight violation.

But at this moment, Nan Zhou recalled that this answer was like a thunderous blow!

I don't know where the impulse came from, Nan Zhou touched the back of his neck with his backhand.

It was empty and there was no sign of Jiang Fang being bitten.

—When {Jiang Fang} controlled his breathing and leaned back on the bed rail, that fleeting anomaly stemmed from this.

Nan Zhou's mind was suddenly confused, and his steady breathing became disordered a little bit.

Just when the page was open, an [achievement] popped up in the lower right corner, stayed for three seconds, and then disappeared.

Congratulations on the achievement: 【Finally False】.

[Finally False] Little ant, memory is the most meaningless thing, isn't it

In an instant, countless thoughts poured into Nan Zhou's heart, rushing his originally orderly thoughts into chaos and collapse.

… After all, what is true

… who are you… who are you
