"Can you know in advance? What is the content of this random task?"
For Weizard, who suffers from "insomnia", every time he completes the nightmare task, he can enjoy a spiritual "sleep" pleasure, but this feeling makes him unable to stop...
"Of course!" The veteran replied very happily: "The random mission I triggered... The name is'Haunted House and Mystery'."
"Haunted house fans?"
Weizard murmured and repeated it again, and he asked thoughtfully: "Veteran, how did you trigger this random task?"
"..."
The veteran on the other side of the receiver was silent for a while, "The reason for triggering the task should be related to my real profession..."
"If it doesn't matter... you can leave it alone!"
Weizard certainly knows why the veteran hesitates. He lazily said: "I am more interested in myself, why would you say that this random task will expose us to a'real world'? Is it the society we live in? Isn't it'real' anymore?"
"… Is such that… "
There was another silence. The veteran seemed to have made a certain decision, and what he said was no longer concealed.
"... I was born in a military family, and I secretly heard some unbelievable secrets from the elders in my family... To be honest, before entering the nightmare paradise, I always took those secrets as a joke."
"and many more… "
Weizard interrupted and asked, "Veteran, how old are you?"
"33 years old."
"Tsk tusk! I didn't expect it..."
Weizard slapped his tongue and praised: "With your steady performance in the trial mission, I thought you were an old guy!"
"... Wizard, don't interrupt anymore!"
After organizing the words, the veteran continued: "The world we live in, under the appearance of being full of sunlight, there are many evils and darkness unknown to ordinary people."
"Witch, you should have heard the prophecy of extinction, right?"
"Have heard! For example, the Doomsday Judgment mentioned in various religions; the flood and extinction predicted by the great prophets; there is also the end of the world in 1881; the apocalyptic panic in 1910; 1967, 1982, 1992, 1999 The language of the end of the year; and the Mayan prophecy in 2012..."
Weizard joked and said: "If we really follow the recorded prophecies of annihilation and make statistical calculations, we humans and our world would have been destroyed hundreds of times..."
"Then if I say..."
Listening to Wei Zede's almost chatting words, the veteran seriously asked, "Are all these prophecies of annihilation true?"
"Are you sure you are not joking?"
Weizard, who was lying on the sofa, sat up slowly: "Aren't we living well now? How can such a bizarre thing happen? Unless I see it with my own eyes..."
At this point, Weizard's voice stopped abruptly.
"I saw it with my own eyes? Haven't I already seen this with my own eyes!!"
Weizard, who has an ordinary mentality and has not completely transformed it, suddenly realized that during this period of time, everything he has been exposed to... is all surreal! They are all unimaginable by ordinary people! !
Hearing Weizard's sudden stop to speak, the veteran was roughly aware of his psychological changes. He went on to say: "...The prophecies of extinction in history are all true!"
"It's just that when those disasters are about to break out, or just not long ago, a group of extraordinary people will kill them or move them away..."
"Smear the disaster? Transfer? Who did it? How did they do it?"
Hearing this, Weizard couldn't help but interrupt again: "Could it be...?"
"Yes! As you guessed it..."
The veteran said in a calm voice: "The trial mission we have experienced should be a small catastrophe..."
"And the disaster events mentioned in history are mostly super disasters that can exterminate mankind... Of course, before those super disasters wiped out mankind, they were all artificially fixed!"
"And the'people' who deal with these disasters... are the players in the nightmare paradise!"
At this point, the veteran paused slightly.
"It's hard to imagine... the Taoist priests and warriors of the East, the priests and knights of the West, the supermen, supernatural beings in the film and television works, and even the legendary gods, immortals, demons and ghosts... They are not just imagined!"
"The reason why we humans can survive on this planet, in addition to the hard work of ordinary people, the sacrifices made by the'game players' hidden in ordinary society are even more indelible..."
In the veteran's narrative, the door to a new world slowly opened, which completely collapsed the three views that Weizard had established since childhood.
"Huh? Why did you stop? Veteran, did you continue talking?"
Wei Zede, who was very interested in these contents, urged.
"there is none left!"
The voice of the veteran came from the handset of the phone.
"No? Why is it gone?"
Weizard, who had only heard half of his words, only felt like a cat's claw in his heart, itchy!
The voice of the veteran was a little helpless: "I have said before, these secret things are all I heard from the elders... The content is of course incomplete!"
"Alright alright… "
Weizard smacked his lips again, and said with a little regret: "This is the same as listening to storytelling. I will cut you off at the most critical moment... It's not addictive!"
"Man! Witch! You fellow... In your eyes, veteran, I am a storyteller?"
Hearing a sound of gritted teeth from the phone, Weizard said Shi Shiran: "Seeing you speak so hard, I reluctantly accepted this task..."
"real?"
"Really! More real than gold!"
"If you're polite, I won't say any more, veteran... Thank you for your help, wizard!"
Veterans know that every mission released by Nightmare Paradise is full of crises! Once accepted the task, it means that the player is about to face the threat of death...
Although the wizard's tone is very casual, after this seemingly simple reply, he has a firm belief in giving up his life and forgetting to die!
"... Wizard, I owe you once!"
The veteran’s words of gratitude made Weizard feel very uncomfortable. He pretended to be at a loss and said: "Huh? I'm sorry, I didn't hear what you said..."
"Right! What do I need to do to receive this task?"
"Oh, wait a moment..."
Soon after the veteran's voice fell, a system prompt popped up in Weizard's vision:
[The game player "veteran" shared a random task with you: Haunted House and Mystery, do you accept it? 】
"accept!"
【confirm! The player "witch" accepts the task. 】
【Ding! Two players have already accepted the mission "Haunted Mansion", and the number of players meets the mission requirements! 】
[This random mission will officially open in 12 hours. 】
