Bai Zhi knocked on the table with his knuckles.
"We call those people rulers. By the way, didn't you decide on this title first? The former Xiaohai hit it off with us, but he told us everything."
"..."
Recalling the deception that a certain guy had given to the zombie before and the zombie that was still tied up in that convenience store, Shao Yu, who was condemned by his conscience, felt a little guilty when looking at his companions who all looked like they were taking it for granted. head.
It's like we felt like old friends at first sight...
"Sorry, I'm getting older and my brain is a bit hard to use."
After being stunned for a moment, the master sighed and continued to speak.
"In this city, it is divided into nine areas. Among these nine areas, there are nine rulers in each area. Their predecessors are actually awakened ones, which are players."
"Isn't this right? Didn't you say before that all the players in this world were killed by zombies like you?"
Bai Zhi narrowed his eyes slightly and asked.
"If those rulers are players, why do they do that kind of thing to transform zombies?"
"They were before, but who knows what they are now?"
The master turned his head and looked out the window.
"The world in the past was actually not like this. A world where all people are zombies is better than everyone dying. Some people even optimistically want to re-establish a zombie society."
When he said this, the Master turned his head and looked at them.
"At that time, except for the fact that the sun, moon and stars all disappeared and all humans turned into zombies, there were no more disasters. Life went on as usual, and there were no strange stories, just what I said before Those. If you ignore the appearance, the gradually misinterpreted aesthetics and some common sense concepts, the world is actually no different from before."
"So in this abnormal social environment, once a new player is born among you, you will treat him as an alien and execute him... This is really ridiculous."
Mo Ran Liuli spoke coldly.
"The so-called zombies are actually a type of fallen species. This is not a zombie virus, or zombies, or changing species, but that everyone in your world has become a fallen species. "
"...Maybe it's like this."
The master had no intention of refuting, but instead sighed.
"It's just that there are some differences between zombies and fallen species after all. They are divided into two categories. One is the zombies like Xiao Hai who still retain the most basic wisdom, and the other is the zombies who have completely lost their ability. The self is like a zombie-like piece of flesh, which is actually not..."
"It's just the difference between losing control and not losing control."
Bai Zhi shook his head and interrupted the other party's words.
"If you lose control, you will naturally become a fallen species. If you don't lose control, you can try to call yourselves new humans... Just go on, what happened next?"
"...Originally, a new social order belonging to the zombie world was to be established. But I don't know when, the rulers appeared."
After a moment of silence, the master continued to speak.
"These rulers don't know where they come from. They wantonly capture zombies, establish their own territories and regions, change the structure of the city, and tear the social order that has finally stabilized to pieces again. Countless zombies As a result, they died, or were transformed into those disgusting soldiers, and the whole world was shattered by their appearance. Who else could be there besides the players?"
"How many Dominators are there in total?"
Reaching out and touching his chin, Bai Zhi suddenly asked such a question.
"I don't know, no one has counted them, but there will probably be only one in the end."
The master showed an expression on his face that he didn't know whether he was laughing or crying.
"As long as there are zombies, there will be rulers. They use zombies as raw materials to build their own armies, and then start wars against other rulers. And there will only be one winner in the war."
"So according to what you said, these rulers are hostile to each other?"
With some vague thoughts in his mind, Bai Zhi asked the other party with seeming interest.
"According to what you said before, you seem to be over 100 years old, so at least more than 100 years have passed here. For such a long time, have the rulers not even unified a city?"
"This world has completely changed and become extremely strange... Do you know how long it takes for the rulers to wake up?"
The Master shook his head.
"Every two months, they will wake up, and then a seven-day war will break out. After the seven days are over, unless there is only the last ruler left, everything will be reset until the end. This cycle will continue until there is a final winner... It has accumulated for nearly 100 years so far."
"Reset...what do you mean?"
His heart suddenly moved, and Yuan Que quickly asked the master.
"Does it mean that everything in the scene will be reversed? This city has been reversed nearly tens of thousands of times so far?"
"No, the all-round reset is only limited to the lairs where the rulers themselves are located. In other places, such as myself and the zombies, we have to endure the torture of the normal passage of time. If it is not those who destroyed If the buildings were reset and reappeared, these zombies would have all starved to death."
The Master showed a slightly mocking smile on his face.
"Do you know why there is such a weird rule? I can tell you. Because when the rulers wake up from their slumber, those rulers and their soldiers can only survive in the outside world for seven days. The important thing here is It’s just a matter of protecting themselves!!”
"That's right, the lifespan of rulers is only seven days!!"
Volume One: The Gap between Illusion and Reality: Chapter 355 Chapter 350 The Replaced
"Seven days of lifespan...can those rulers only survive in the outside world for seven days?"
His eyes flickered for a few times, and looking at the old zombie who looked like a skeleton in front of him, Bai Zhi suddenly laughed.
"In that case, you should know those rulers very well. They have been to your place many times before, right? Otherwise, Xiaohai wouldn't respect you so much."
"Dominators pay more attention to interests, and they will never do anything that does not benefit them."
As if he guessed what Bai Zhi wanted to ask, Master shook his head.
"I have become so old that I am not suitable to be used as raw material, so they let me go. As for the humidifier and necessary backgrounds, those are all necessary. Not every zombie is as good as Xiaohai... Ahem, simple.”
"You just wanted to say it's easy to deceive, right? Although I personally think it's easy to deceive..."
Bai Zhi nodded, with a look of deep sympathy on his face.
"These days, there aren't many zombies that are easy to trick."
"...Do you have any more questions?"
The master turned his head silently.
"There are nine areas in a city, and there are nine rulers in each area. What will happen when all nine are unified?"
Bai Zhi reached out and pressed his forehead slightly, then asked with a smile.
"I think you should know these things, right?"
"have no idea."
After taking a deep look at Bai Zhi, Master shook his head.
"When the Dominator appears, the city is already in a blocked state. People from outside can't come in, and people inside can't get out. If you don't believe it, you can go to the edge of the city and have a look to see if you can Can't get out. Do you think those zombies and I don't want to escape from this dangerous city?"
"Very good. In order to express my sincerity, let me give you a brief summary of our information."
Putting his hands on the table, Bai Zhi smiled and spoke.
"The four of us are players from other worlds, because your world and other worlds united to invade our world, which triggered the emergence of large-scale battle missions. This time the mission of the four of us is for this world … Or in other words, this city’s exploratory mission.”
"There are no strange stories in this city."
With a sigh in his mouth, the Master shook his head.
"You just need to be careful about the rulers who are about to wake up or have already woken up, and the soldiers under them, as well as the zombies who have lost their consciousness. Your safety can be guaranteed."
"Don't worry, I haven't finished speaking yet."
Waving his hand, Bai Zhi interrupted the other party's words.
"First of all, the place where the four of us appeared is very strange. It was on the eighth floor below one of the rulers..."
Amid the expressions of other teammates who changed their minds, Bai Zhi openly told all the things that happened to the four of his team... except for the fact that if they violated the rules, such as using equipment and props, everything would start over. in addition to one key piece of information.
"...Okay, that's all the above."
Bai Zhi clapped his hands and said.
"I want you to analyze why the four of us appear there, and what do so many meanings mean?"
"... There are no pure human beings in this world anymore."
After a moment of silence, the Master raised his head and looked at him.
"I know, so the identities of the four survivors are all fake, because all of them have turned into zombies."
Bai Zhi nodded understandingly.
"So, what do you think the situation will be like?"
"You...replaced the Dominator..."
For some reason, the voice coming out of Master's mouth seemed a little dry.
"I have dealt with those Dominators too many times, so I also know some secrets that they don't bother to hide... When the Dominators wake up from their slumber and start a war, their bodies will not come down, but will Another body was formed. At the same time, four of the nine rulers in this area formed an alliance... "
"So the system killed those four rulers directly, and then put us in their positions. The characters we played actually corresponded to those four rulers. And every two months After no results are determined, a complete reset will be carried out... Are those rulers really made of humans?"
Bai Zhi reached out and touched his chin, with a thoughtful look on his face.
"The identities and personalities of the four rulers we replaced are their original ones, right?"
"But that's not right. If we really took over the identities of the four rulers, why would those mosquito soldiers attack us?"
After being stunned for a moment, Shaoyu quickly retorted.
"I am dead..."
"You should have found something special in the room, right?"
Interrupting Shao Yu's words, Bai Zhi turned around and took the lead in taking out the blood-stained watermelon knife wrapped in newspaper from his sleeve and placed it on the table.
"I think this thing should be the so-called token."
"..."
After a moment of silence, Mo Ran Liuli followed closely and took out a pen from his pocket and placed it on the table.
"Found in the back of the drawer."
After her, Yuan Que also took out a small fruit knife and placed it on the table. At the same time, he coughed a few times.
"… Me too."
After that, Bai Zhi and the others all turned their heads and looked at Shao Yu, who was completely out of state and looking confused.
"I thought it wasn't something too important? So I didn't bring it... "
Faced with the looks cast by his companions, Shao Yu's lips twitched.
"That's an evil god figure... How about I go back and get it now?"
"..."
"The power of the system is really powerful..."
At this time, the master sighed with a wry smile.
"You obviously have such great power, why not save my world from the very beginning?"
"It's you who refused to be saved. It's better to ask for help than to ask for help from others. The system clearly gave you power, but you refused."
Turning his head to look at the master in front of him, Bai Zhi shook his head slightly.
"Our mission is an exploration mission, and it has almost been basically completed... Well, do you have any commissions here?"
Bai Zhizhen asked the other party skillfully.
"Although we have replaced the four rulers, it is of little use in the overall environment. After all, if we win, the city will disappear. If we fail, everything will start from scratch... We can do it for you What?"
"Let all be silent."
The Master spoke calmly.
"I can provide you with support and enable you to achieve the final victory. This battle has lasted for a full 100 years, and it is time to end."
"You want us to kill each other?"
Yuan Que frowned fiercely, and Yuan Que's expression turned cold.
"This kind of thing is..."
“What support can you provide?”
