When consciousness gradually regained clarity, the reincarnators were in a prosperous metropolis, but it was raining heavily at this time, and the reincarnators were all standing on the roadside. The raindrops penetrated their bodies directly but did not wet the corners of their clothes.
Inception is a sci-fi movie about how the protagonist Kirby and his partners use advanced technology to infiltrate the target Fisher's dream, and then implant ideas to make Fisher want to split up his company. Most of the plot of this movie takes place in dreams, and the setting of multiple layers of dreams makes the whole movie full of suspense and twists and turns.
Meng Xiang was naturally very familiar with the movie, so he looked around and blurted out, "Are we already in a dream?"
Ding Jie stood aside with a snort. Han Fan and Zhou Lina were shocked when they heard what Meng Xiang said. Han Fan turned around and accidentally saw a bearded Indian man standing on the roadside not far from them, waiting helplessly in the wind and rain. He shouted, "That should be the pharmacist Yusuf, right? In the movie, the protagonists have to take enhanced sleeping pills in order to sleep peacefully. Those drugs are all made by him."
"Yes, it seems that the Lord wants us to start in a dream, and hopefully end in a dream as well." Meng Xiang muttered to himself, looking down at the newcomers on the ground. There were only three of them this time, two women and one man. At this time, they woke up one after another, and were shocked to see themselves lying on the roadside in the pouring rain. The man cursed and was about to run to the roadside shop, but he bumped into the halo surrounding them and fell to the ground with a "pop".
"Fuck, what is this place!" The man was quite tough, nearly 2 meters tall, with a full beard and tattoos on his arms. He said to Meng Xiang and others in a rough voice: "Hey, what is this place?"
Meng Xiang was too lazy to pay attention to him and said to Jiejuan calmly: "Jiejuan, explain it to them."
Jiejuan took a step forward with an indifferent look on her face and said, "Everyone, I am Jiejuan. First of all, you are already dead. Next, you listen to me..." Before she finished speaking, the sturdy man rushed over, grabbed Jiejuan's chest with one hand, and said fiercely, "I'm dead? Are you cursing me to death?"
"Your dirty fingers have touched my breast. I'll only say this once, let go." Jie Juan neither struggled nor dodged, but spoke coldly in a low voice.
"Beauty, who told you to curse me? So what if I touched your breasts? Anyway, your breasts..." He was still in his fantasy. Jiejuan raised her left knee and hit the man's lower body hard. Jiejuan was no longer a delicate beauty. Not only did she exchange for the archangel bloodline, but she also strengthened her strength and physique. After this collision, the man immediately screamed, covered his lower body and fell to the ground groaning in pain. Jiejuan ignored him and said to the other two women with admiration on their faces: "What I say now is true. You have to listen carefully, otherwise people will really die."
Although the two women still had a trace of fear on their faces, they seemed to appreciate Jiejuan's cruelty to the man. It was inevitable that all women would be united in hatred of the man who casually treated women.
Jie Juan still repeated what Meng Xiang had said to her before, almost without changing a word. The two women were stunned and doubtful. Meng Xiang didn't care whether they believed it or not. He squatted down and picked up the man who was still groaning on the ground with one hand, and said with a smile: "Don't ask for trouble next time. The trick of the beauty was a bargain for you." He pointed at Ding Jie who was standing aside and said: "That's the captain of our Wuming team. If you mess with him, you are no longer a man now."
The man weighed at least 80 kilograms. Meng Xiang lifted him up easily with one hand, which had already shocked the newcomers.
"Then be good." Meng Xiang spoke in a tone like he was coaxing a child, causing Zhou Lina to laugh out loud.
"Please introduce yourselves to each other and tell us why you died." Meng Xiang said with a smile.
“My name is Mu Fei’er, I’m 21 years old, a farmer, I… I…” Mu Fei’er spoke with tears in her eyes, and said pitifully: “I encountered thunder when I was transplanting rice seedlings, and then I was hit by lightning…” Mu Fei’er, dressed in simple farmer’s clothes, with a pretty face and a long braid, looked very pure.
Her charming appearance not only touched Meng Xiang and Han Fan, but also Jie Juan, who comforted her repeatedly: "It's okay. Although we have died once, aren't we fine now?" She patted Mu Fei'er's back gently to calm her heart.
Another woman said in horror: "My name is Li Chan, I'm a white-collar worker. I encountered a fire while at work, and the result was..." She lowered her head and didn't say anything else.
"It's your turn, big brother, what's your name?" Meng Xiang looked at the man with a smile. The man was still stroking his lower body with both hands, and the pain had not subsided for a while. He seemed to be very afraid of Meng Xiang, but when he glanced at Jie Juan, he revealed a fierce and sinister look: "My name is Li Biao, and I was shot by the police when I was doing illegal business."
Jiejuan seemed to be interested and said with a smile: "So it's Brother **, sorry for the disrespect, what business do you do?"
Li Biao said nothing, stroking his lower body and moving his feet, trying to stay away from Jie Juan.
Ding Jie then said coldly, "Is the introduction over? I still say the same thing. Newcomers can follow us, but don't become a burden to us. As long as you survive this horror movie, I will recognize you as a member of the Nameless Team. Before that, take care of yourselves."
The newcomer nodded tremblingly, and Meng Xiang immediately eased the atmosphere and said with a smile: "In fact, as long as you don't act on your own and don't hinder us, we will protect you. As long as you survive this horror movie and return to the main god space to strengthen, you will have the capital to survive."
At this moment, a mechanized, completely toneless voice sounded in everyone's ears: "Title: Inception, Difficulty: Double C-level, Mission: Return to the real world in the movie. Enter the third level of dreams with Kirby to complete the implantation of thoughts, and you will be rewarded with 3,000 points. If Kirby dies before the implantation or the implantation fails, 3,000 points will be deducted. Complete the mission, and each person will be rewarded with 0 points, 1 C-level side story, mission failure, obliteration, death in the dream, obliteration. During the horror movie, the defense of the gold armor is weakened to 1/10, and all attack magic is ineffective."
The Lord God issued a long task, which confused Meng Xiang. "If Kobe dies or the implantation fails, only 3,000 points will be deducted? If the task is completed, 0 points will be awarded? Is the Lord God mentally retarded?"
The newbie didn't understand the meaning of this text at all, and Ding Jie suddenly said coldly with a hint of joy: "It's not stupid, but the difficulty of the mission has been reduced. That is to say, if we don't help the protagonist Kirby and just stay in the first level of the dream mirror, as long as we save our lives, we can complete the mission, and the cost is only 3,000 points, hehe."
Ding Jie's words were correct, but after deducting 3,000 points, everyone except Meng Xiang and Ding Jie would have negative points. What would be the result of negative points? Obviously, it would be eliminated by the Lord God.
"So, can we choose not to assist Kirby? Although we won't get any points, we can still save our lives. This level of difficulty is probably close to level C. Captain, where is your divine cloth?" Meng Xiang knew that Ding Jie had exchanged for the A-level equipment divine cloth. Even if Zhang Jin left, the difficulty of this horror movie was too low.
Ding Jie said calmly: "I left the sacred clothes in the main god space."
If the sacred clothes are not brought into the world of reincarnation, the sacred clothes will not be taken into account in the assessment of the main god's strength. In this way, the difficulty of horror movies can indeed be reduced.
"I see. So the purpose of reducing the difficulty of the double C-level this time is to let us choose whether to take the risk for 3,000 points or to exchange 3,000 points for temporary safety? One of the two? No," Meng Xiang looked at Ding Jie indifferently and said, "It should be one of the three. We can also try to trigger the side story without restraint."
Ding Jie's face was full of jealousy, as if he didn't expect Meng Xiang to react so quickly.
"Han Fan, you have been chattering about this movie in my ear these past few days, and you even fantasized about some hidden details for a long time. Now you can analyze this movie and the main god mission prompts." Meng Xiang said to Han Fan.
Han Fan takes everything very seriously. Since he knew that the next horror movie is "Inception", he has watched this movie no less than 10 times and has a deep understanding of it. He murmured, "According to the original plot, the implantation of thoughts must be carried out in the third layer of dreams. Each time we go deeper into the dream, the time will be delayed 20 times. If we help Kirby complete the task, each time we go deeper into the dream, the danger of not being able to return to the real world in the movie will increase. But if we stay in the first layer of the dream mirror, we can return safely in a week, but the Lord God will certainly not let us go so easily. Because the dreamer of this dream is the target person Fisher, in order to prevent others from entering the dream to steal information, he has been trained by dream stealing experts, so his consciousness will be transformed into a projection of armed personnel to attack us. But compared with helping Kirby sneak into the deep dream, it is obviously much safer to stay in the first layer."
"It's more than that, right?" Jie Juan smiled coquettishly and winked at Han Fan. Han Fan was very shy and blushed as he lowered his head. "According to the rules of the Lord God, with each deeper level, the projection armed forces incarnated by Fisher's consciousness will become stronger and stronger, or the weapons will become more and more advanced. Anyway, after the compulsory hypnotic drug wears off, we will return to the real world in the movie, so the longer we stay in the dream, the stronger the armed personnel will be. The first level of dreams is 1 week, the second level is 6 months, and the third level is 10 years. If we can't return to the first level from the second or third level, then we must face the fate of being hunted down by the increasingly powerful projection armed forces for a long time."
Jie Juan's words shocked the newcomer and Zhou Lina. Zhou Lina was terrified and said in a trembling voice: "Then...what should we do? Either we stay in the first level of dreams."
Jie Juan said faintly: "Neither you nor I have 3,000 points. If we don't help Kobe complete the mind implantation mission, we will also end up dead."
