"It's not like that." Shen Mu said in a deep voice, and took a shallow breath, "Yesterday's mountain top was very flat, without this crack. Until last night, when the sun started to set, there was no such crack. This should be It’s a change that occurred this morning, and it’s related to the vibration at 6:00.”
Yan Mo's eyes fell on the crack, and he also fell into thought, and no one spoke for a while.
"What do you think about this?" After a while, Yan Mo's voice sounded, breaking the temporary silence.
Shen Mu glanced at Yan Mo, who frowned slightly, and kept his gaze on the dark crack. Shen Mu withdrew his gaze and said, "The mountain vibrated, and there are only two possibilities for this crack to appear on the top of the mountain. Part of this game's map setting, it was either a real accident."
"It can't be a real natural disaster." Shen Mu smiled after finishing speaking.
"Yes." Yan Mo seemed to chuckle slightly, "Earthquakes are not like this."
"I also think of these two situations." Yan Mo continued, "If it's the first one, it's part of the game's setting." Yan Mo paused, "Then this setting is definitely more than that, otherwise It doesn't make sense."
Shen Mu agreed with this point, and then asked: "Brother Yan, in your opinion, if the mountain earthquake this morning is part of the setting, what is the whole truth of the setting?"
At this moment, Yan Mo turned around and looked at Shen Mu, with a strange look in his eyes. Shen Mu met his eyes, and his heart skipped a beat, but Yan Mo quickly turned around, and then analyzed the strange situation in front of him. I suspect that the strange gaze just now was just an illusion.
"Since the initial sign is that the mountain trembled a little, maybe the magnitude of the mountain quake tomorrow will be more than that." Speaking of the possible danger, Yan Mo's expression became serious, "It might not be until tomorrow... Let's just say The next mountain quake will be counted at six o'clock tomorrow morning."
"However," Yan Mo spoke with something to say, frowning slightly, "The system of Xuanming Game, let's call it a system, its core is not 'the system arranges traps to play with players', but 'the system guides players to play with each other', There may be unexplained hidden rules in a game, but there will never be hidden rules that conflict with known rules, and the overall rules and individual tasks we receive must be 'determined'."
"According to what you said," Shen Mu thought for a while, "'Landslide and Earthquake' is a hidden rule, and it doesn't conflict with the current existing rules!"
"No conflict," Yan Mo said, "but if there is a real landslide in the back, no, it can't be stopped by manpower, and this becomes 'squeezing the game itself with a strong external force'." Speaking of this Yan Mo shook his head and stopped talking, the disapproval was evident on his face.
"Isn't it a common situation in this 'infinite flow' system to push the game itself with external force?" Shen Mu said jokingly, but after a moment of reaction, he shook his head again, "No."
"It doesn't seem right. The progress of the game is already very fast this time, and the mechanism that you must vote and cannot abstain from voting can already guarantee that the game will go on smoothly. If the system causes landslides and ground cracks, it will really It's destroying the original game system." Shen Mu chuckled suddenly, and changed the subject, "The premise is that the game of Suspense is indeed a game between players under the existing rules."
Yan Mo turned his head slightly, looked at Shen Mu and said nothing.
"It was true for the first four games in the past. The system only released the rules and identities, and the process of the game was completely determined by the players themselves." Yan Mo looked at Shen Mu, and Shen Mu also looked at Yan Mo, "But this game Compared with the previous rules, the rules have changed greatly, how do you know that the potential laws summarized before will not change?"
"Brother Yan, you..." Shen Mu looked into Yan Mo's eyes, "Your rules are not just summed up from the first four rounds?"
Yan Mo looked at Shen Mu and smiled slightly, but did not answer the topic.
At this time, he was like yesterday again. Shen Mu was a little amused in his heart, when he met Yan Mo at the bottom of the mountain yesterday, although his attitude was not unfriendly at all, and he could even be called answering every question, but I really wanted to ask something from him... Shen Mu Shaking his head secretly in his heart, Zhao Xu felt Yan Mo's attitude of not wanting to talk too much yesterday, so he didn't talk too much to him.
Although Yan Mo's Lu Shimo was very defensive yesterday, but Yan Mo's indifference is not just because of the mutual wariness between the different camps and identities of the werewolves. I didn't say it, but there is an aura of 'don't get close to strangers'.
Shen Mu felt a little surprised that he cooperated so well today.
"There's no need to deny this possibility." After a moment of silence, Yan Mo spoke first, still not answering Shen Mu's question just now, saying, "The underlying law may change, or it may not change, no matter what, the previous law is true. So, there is nothing to say about this point. From this point alone, as you said, the progress of the game is fast enough. If you really use earthquakes to promote it, it cannot be called advancing the game process, but it should be called ending the game directly. Let's assume that this game is still for players to play, then," Yan Mo tilted his head to indicate the crack in front of him, "at least the whole picture of it is a 'system-designed earthquake', which can be rejected."
Shen Mu noticed his words: "Do you think this is not a design, but an accident?"
Yan Mo nodded: "That's the second possibility, I think it was a real accident."
After a pause, Yan Mo continued: "The system will not do such a design that is useless or even breaks the rules of the game. Even if this ditch does not cause an earthquake, it will only get bigger every day, or there will be no follow-up at all. , does it have any meaning of existence?"
"Hmm." Shen Mu couldn't figure out the design of this ditch at first, and he was biased in his mind that it was not part of the game design of the system. Although he suspected that Yan Mo was the original player who fell back from the later rounds, this was more proof that Yan Mo What Mo said, 'the underlying rules of the game of suspense is a game between players' is true.
Moreover, when chatting with An Yu before, he did not mention the danger of "the system playing players" in the later stage, and the context did not reveal the possibility of such a tendency. I don't think the system will really arrange a disaster that kills all players in one go.
… Huh? The No. 12 of the previous Infernal Affairs also came back from behind. He hated the No. 2 at that time, but the No. 2 seemed... is it possible? …
Shen Mu took another look at Yan Mo's outstanding face, but found that the other party was also looking at him, as if waiting for him to speak.
"If this is a real accident," Shen Mu withdrew his gaze calmly, then talked about the vision in front of him, a few bad assumptions flashed in his mind, his tone was suppressed, and he directly sighed, "I have a bad feeling."
Your soul is trapped in a system full of mysterious power, and the lives of you and your loved ones, relatives, and friends are also in its hands, and now it begins to have accidents...
"No, it can't be regarded as the beginning." Shen Mu said in a low voice.
This sentence has no beginning and no end, but Yan Mo understood: "If you talk about accidents, isn't the biggest accident that we can't return to the real world every time we complete a round?"
"Yes." Shen Mu nodded seriously, "According to the rules, every time I complete a round, I should be able to return to the real world once. But I haven't left here since the first round. Is it also like this before? "
Yan Mo glanced at Shen Mu again, but before Shen Mu could tell anything from his gaze, he only heard him say: "Of course it wasn't like this before.
"
"?!" Shen Mu was taken aback. Although he guessed that Yan Mo entered the game earlier than himself, he did not expect him to admit it, "Did you come back to life in this round?"
"No." Yan Mo smiled and didn't want to talk about this topic, "You said you were trapped here from the first round, that is to say, you managed to go back after the preparatory round. In fact, this is a coincidence , it’s not that the reserve game and the official game are different here.”
"Just from that point in time, 'accidents' began to happen."
