[Congratulations to the host, successfully discovered the secret of the lost cruise ship, half of the progress of the game mission has been achieved!]After thinking of this, the system's notification sound came over.
Ruan Bai heard this familiar mechanical sound, and knew what she was thinking, probably not wrong.
Some details of the past were gradually revealed in front of her, and she gradually saw through the owner's intentional or unintentional guidance of their behavior.
She thought that when she was playing the game of catching the murderer, she had worried about the negative impact the game would have on the players, and thought that if the game wasn't terminated soon, it would cause internal turmoil and psychological problems for the players.
Thinking about it now, it was not without reason that those children who survived became murderers later.
To be able to survive such a game, the three views have long been distorted.
After killing or harming someone with your own hands, it is very difficult to rely on education to change their minds.
The existence of the master is very strange. Before those children left, they were probably bewitched by him.
In addition to these, many settings of this game, including the arrangement of the master, are intentionally or unintentionally leading the player into the ditch.
For example, the deliberately reduced amount of information allows players to pin their hopes on the new map and reduces the exploration of the cruise ship itself.
For example, misleading players and making them ignore the different settings of the two ships.
In particular, the order to stay on the island for a day not only stunned She Xiaoxue and made her wonder if there was any other information on the cruise ship that she hadn't found, it also delayed quite a bit of time on a certain level.
If Ruan Bai didn't find any loopholes and came to his senses, maybe they would seriously search for information on the island for a day, and finally return without success.
After thinking about all this clearly, Ruan Bai sighed, feeling a little scared.
As for how the master appeared, why he played games with these teachers and children, and he called them back after ten years, Ruan Bai felt that it was not difficult to find out.
She still remembered the invitation letter she found in the suitcase, which stated that if she could live to the end, the master would be able to grant her wish.
People don't benefit early, even if these children's thoughts are twisted later, it doesn't mean they are stupid.
Ruan Bai thought, ten years ago, the last eighteen children who survived the three rounds of games should have gotten something from their master.
It is very likely that he has helped these eighteen children realize their wishes, so that ten years later, they still have this wonderful ability.
Killing people or something should be a necessary step to get an invitation letter.
The timing of their killings was too close, and the person who killed Ruan Bai had nothing to do with her at all, and it was not a vendetta with a reason at all.
If it weren't for the certainty that the master would appear and fulfill their wishes, no one would take the risk of going to jail to kill someone.
So all the information has its ins and outs.
After Ruan Bai figured it out, without hesitating for too long, he quietly found an excuse and told his conjecture, Gu Buchao and others.
Gu Buchao looked calm, as if he had doubts for a long time, but She Xiaoxue showed a thoughtful expression after listening.
"It's really similar," she said softly, "The story of the shipwrecked mermaid is really similar."
Ruan Bai thought about it and found that it was indeed true.
People who have been shipwrecked correspond to teachers and students who are in crisis.
The mermaid corresponds to the master.
Jewelry given by mermaids to humans, corresponding to the master's ability to fulfill the child's wishes.
They are all stories about a group of people encountering difficulties, being helped by another existence, and finally giving good things to human beings.
But the story of the shipwreck mermaid is a very warm fairy tale.
But the story of the owner and his cruise ship is cold and full of blood.
However, whether these things are scientific or not, and what kind of tragic past the owner has, is not what Ruan Bai cares about.
What escape games are best at is to magically change the real experience and create some weird storylines.
If you really use the game plot to check the prototype in real life, it is almost impossible to find out. If it is not for the assistance of the mermaid bell, Ruan Bai might not find that the escape game system is still connected with reality.
After exploring the progress of the game, Ruan Bai and his teammates felt relaxed.
Although it's only noon, they discussed it and decided to sleep here now.
In order to clear the game before, they hardly had much sleep time.
Anyway, 80% of the island can only kill time, and several people want to take this opportunity to rest.
Seeing Ruan Bai and the others lay down on the floor to sleep, the other players' eyes almost popped out.
It's all this time, and you're still in the mood to sleep? ?
Ruan Bai didn't know what the others were thinking, but she could vaguely guess from their expressions that they probably thought they had given up struggling...
She didn't care about other people's opinions. After discussing with others how to take turns to take care of her sleeping teammates, she lay down and went to sleep first.
Seeing this, the other players were speechless, but they did not stop searching.
It's a pity that there are really not many things that can be searched inside the Taoist temple, and outside the Taoist temple, they dare not go out.
The rain outside hadn't stopped, and the sound of the rain was still clear. Those two ghosts who kept walking around stared at the players with a pair of deep black eyes, and they were very aggressive at first glance.
It's just that they are afraid of the Taoist temple, so they only dare to hover outside instead of approaching here.
From the current point of view, they are hiding in Taoist temples to keep them safe.
They have helped the player on the way, but at the same time, they will also pose a threat to the player.
Ruan Bai didn't know what the other players wanted to do, so she and Gu Buchao found a corner for them, spread their clothes and lay down one by one.
Because of being too exhausted, he fell asleep very quickly, and fell asleep almost as soon as he closed his eyes.
Half asleep and half awake, Ruan Bai only felt that his whole body was in a daze, sinking into darkness.
"Ruan Ruan... Ruan Ruan, wake up, it's your turn..."
After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, Ruan Bai vaguely felt that someone was calling her.
After Ruan Bai was completely awakened by Ning Rou, she rubbed her eyes and looked at the game countdown, only to realize that she had slept for three hours.
For safety's sake, the few of them divided the work, and they took turns watching the others sleep. Ning Rou was the first to watch, and then it was Ruan Bai's turn.
After waking Ruan Bai up, the tired Ning Rou didn't talk to her much, and fell asleep with her eyes closed.
As for the other players, after a fruitless search for a period of time, they were all lying on the ground, falling asleep with their eyes closed, looking as if they were dead.
The entire Taoist temple was quiet, and the rain outside stopped at some point, and the world suddenly fell into silence.
Ruan Bai even felt that the sound of his own breathing was terrifyingly loud.
Ruan Bai sat beside the girls, stared blankly for a while, and gradually felt a little bored.
She raised her head to look at the Taoist temple, and then at the statue next to her. For some reason, she had the feeling that the other side was also looking at her.
She touched the mermaid bell hanging around her neck, and her thoughts slowly drifted away.
If she remembered correctly, when she came to this temple before, she felt that the mermaid bell was hot.
Ruan Bai thought, since the master has the ability to fulfill his wish, it must be that his origin is very mysterious.
According to the diaries of the children, it can be known that the appearance of him and his cruise ship was the result of the teacher kneeling down to the idol.
Therefore, the origin of the master is probably related to this statue.
Ruan Bai is not surprised that he has this kind of ability. In the first mermaid village world, the little god mermaid grandma enshrined in that small village can also drive ghosts.
The escape game system seems to have always recognized the abilities of gods.
In the game world it sets up, many gods have very powerful abilities, even gods like the master or the mermaid aunt, who have long been abandoned by believers.
According to the story of the shipwrecked mermaid, the master was probably selfless to all those who asked for help a long time ago.
The world is impermanent, and he is almost becoming an evil god now.
Just as she was thinking about this, she suddenly saw a faint white light from the idol.
The mermaid bell around her neck also emitted light as if echoing the god statue.
What's wrong
Ruan Bai opened his eyes wide in a daze, only to see that the mermaid bell on his neck broke free from the rope and floated up by himself.
It floated in mid-air, came to the front of the statue, and then absorbed the light of the statue!
A steady stream of white light broke away from the statue, came to the mermaid bell one after another, and was fused by it.
As the mermaid bell merged with more and more light spots, the bloody lines on its body became more and more obvious, and the gray statue began to slowly collapse.
First, spider silk-like lines appeared on the body, followed by other parts, and finally the statue began to peel off from the head, falling to the ground and becoming a pile of debris.
"System, what's the situation?" Ruan Bai looked at this scene, feeling a little panic in his heart, subconsciously asked the system in his heart.
But the system didn't reply her.
Ruan Bai didn't dare to interrupt Mermaid Bell's actions, so he could only stand aside and watch as Mermaid Bell devoured the light of the god statue bit by bit, turning it into ruins.
With a bang, the last light of the statue dimmed.
It wasn't until this time that the mermaid bell seemed to be satisfied, and floated back again, landing on Ruan Bai's hand.
Its light stopped flashing, but the temperature of its body was very high, almost scalding Ruan Bai's hand.
Is this... swallowing the energy of a god
Also, the mermaid bell is made of the heart of the mermaid granny, so it should have the same ability as the mermaid granny.
Just when Ruan Bai was looking at the mermaid bell in his hand and thinking this way, the next second, Ruan Bai felt that the whole world was spinning.
Immediately, a group of people called anxiously—
"Ruanrou! Quick, wake up!"
Ruan Bai suddenly opened his eyes, only to see Ning Rou and the others shaking her body violently.
All of them are awake, and so are the passer-by players.
Seeing this, Ruan Bai was stunned for two seconds before reacting.
So, she was actually dreaming just now
But that dream was too real...
However, before she could reflect on her dream, Ning Rou pulled her up from the ground and spoke hastily.
"Ruan Ruan, get up, let's go!" She said in a panic, "I don't know what happened, the two ghosts outside the Taoist temple seem to be no longer afraid of the Taoist temple... They are getting closer and closer now, and they will be able to break in soon Already!"
