"Huh, still conscious?" Meng Xiang gradually regained the ability to think, but he felt that he had no feeling in his body, and he couldn't even open his eyes. But obviously, he knew that he had returned to the main god space.
This meant that he finally survived those few minutes which were both short and long.
Meng Xiang was very glad to complete the mission, but he couldn't be happy. Five members of the Nameless Team entered the punishment plot, and only he came back alive. Even a heart of steel would feel sad.
Han Fan, who had just become the captain, Zhou Lina, who had always clamored to become a magic girl, Mu Feier, who was affectionate towards him, and Jie Juan, who was indifferent to everything. Not long ago, they were toasting and drinking in the main god space, and it was very lively. But now, the main god space was empty, and there was no living thing except him.
"Or, I really should exchange 50,000 points for a woman..." Meng Xiang's mouth gradually moved, and he choked up as he said this.
Suddenly, a crisp and mocking voice sounded beside Meng Xiang: "Aren't there two beautiful women and a little loli here? Do you want to exchange women?"
Meng Xiang was stunned. As his eyes gradually regained strength, he tried hard to open his eyes. Outside the beam of light that enveloped his whole body, Jiejuan was looking at him with a mocking look on her face. Han Fan and Zhou Lina were behind Jiejuan, smiling but with a hint of doubt on their faces, as if they didn't quite believe the facts before them. Mu Feier, with tears of happiness in her eyes, stared at Meng Xiang.
Meng Xiang was startled as if he had seen a ghost, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind. First of all, he was sure that this was not heaven or hell, and secondly, the experience of the horror movie "Final Destination" was not a dream. After thinking it over, he came to a conclusion, a conclusion that he should have predicted long ago.
Although his limbs were still connected to his body, they were crushed to pieces by the boulder. Fortunately, his head was caught by the concave part of the boulder, so he saved his head and survived for a few more seconds. I didn't expect that he had bad luck in "Final Destination", but he had good luck before his return. Although Meng Xiang has not fully recovered, he couldn't help laughing.
The light that enveloped Meng Xiang had disappeared. Meng Xiang asked the Lord God for a set of clothes and put them on. Then he walked to Jie Juan and the others. Mu Fei'er lowered her head shyly, not daring to look Meng Xiang in the eye, but Zhou Lina had already rushed over, holding Meng Xiang's arm and said with a smile: "Brother, what's going on? I heard Han Fan say that I was dead, so why am I still alive and back in the Lord God space?"
"That's right, you are all dead. I buried you with my own hands." Meng Xiang stroked Zhou Lina's hair, turned around and said to Jie Juan with a sarcastic tone: "Among the four of you, the one who died the most pathetic was Jie Juan. She closed the car window when she slept, and ended up dying of exhaust gas poisoning."
Jie Juan smiled and said, "Am I dead? But I only remember that I took a nap in the car, and when I woke up, I was back in the main god space. The feeling of death turned out to be so boring, and it seems not worth experiencing."
Meng Xiang didn't bother to pay attention to her. He looked at the shy Mu Fei'er behind him and said softly, "Fei'er, it seems that our travel plan has to continue."
Mu Fei'er's face turned even redder, and her head was almost vertical to the ground.
"What trip?" Zhou Lina asked curiously.
"Well, nothing." Meng Xiang smiled faintly and briefly recounted what happened in "Final Destination" after Zhou Lina's death. Of course, he skipped the matter of settling down with Mu Feier in the old house in the alley, but every brush with death, every time a companion died, it made the companions who had experienced it tremble with fear.
"So, we are indeed dead, but why are we all resurrected after you completed the task?" Jie Juan smiled slightly. Just looking at her expression, it seems that she has guessed the answer.
Meng Xiang looked at Han Fan and said, "Captain, tell me what you think."
Han Fan had experienced "Final Destination", faced the death of his companions, knew his own weakness, and finally formally assumed the responsibility of the captain. He thought for a moment, sorted out his thoughts, and then said in a firm tone: "Combining the guidance of the captain of the Zhongzhou team and the tasks issued by the Lord God, we could have guessed this ending a long time ago. The punishment plot reflects unfair treatment for the Samsara team. The difficulty of a strong team entering the punishment plot compared to a weak team is not reflected in the level and the process of entering the horror movie, but in the result. The punishment plot is quite scary. For example, when we entered the punishment plot this time, during the horror movie, all four of us died, and Meng Xiang was lucky to survive, showing that the Lord God had no mercy at all, in the horror movie. During the film, we were given a death plot with a corresponding difficulty. However, because we were a weak team, the Lord God gave us a discount on the result of completing the horror film. Our task was that within 5 days, at least 1 person survived, completed the task, and returned safely. The Lord God gave us such an imaginary task. Literally, "at least 1 person survived" and "returned safely" are the discounts given to us, and are also what the captain of the Zhongzhou team said, "the difference in results." Now we know that as long as 1 person survives within 5 days, all team members can return safely. Even if we are dead, we can still be resurrected."
"Pa pa..." Meng Xiang and Jie Juan clapped their hands at the same time. Meng Xiang patted Han Fan on the shoulder and praised him, "Well said. Your inference is exactly the same as what I thought, and you explained it in detail. More importantly, you finally said your inference all at once without pausing. You are fully qualified to be our captain."
Zhou Lina originally looked confused, but she didn't seem to pay attention to it. After hearing what Meng Xiang said, she also said in Meng Xiang's words: "Big brother is right, the otaku has been upgraded, and I also recognize your qualifications as captain, hehe..." As she spoke, she couldn't help laughing.
Final Destination is a punishment storyline with no mission rewards. The process is tense and terrifying, and the ending is unexpected and surprising. There is no better reward than everyone returning safely.
Han Fan looked up at the black ball in the air and said thoughtfully, "What on earth is the Lord God? The side plots are originally rewards for the strong teams to challenge. Why does he suppress the strong teams with punishment plots, so that they cannot explore the side plots without scruples, but give the weak teams a break? However, the difficulty of completing the side plots is obviously beyond the ability of the weak teams."
"Of course it's to maintain balance." Jie Juan replied, "With 100,000 points, one can return to the real world with great power and countless wealth. However, we have lived in the real world for so many years. Have we ever heard of such a person? Even if we are ignorant, there are countless strong people in the reincarnation world, especially those who are stronger than Zhang Jin. If they complete the side plots without restrictions, they should have a good chance of getting 100,000 points. Obviously, the Lord God restricts them through a series of means such as punishment plots, but in order to make the weakness grow faster, even if the weakness triggers the punishment plot, the Lord God will show mercy. Moreover, I think the reward plot will only happen to the weak team. It should be impossible for the strong team to get the reward plot."
Everyone nodded in agreement, thinking that Jiejuan's analysis made sense.
Mu Feier had been listening to their conversation. As if she had thought of something, she said hastily, "In that case, the Lord God should be very considerate of the weak team, and the difficulty of the horror films performed by the weak team is also rated based on the team's strength. So we shouldn't strengthen ourselves and should always remain a weak team. Even if we don't touch the side plots, we can only get the reward of each horror film, 100,000 points. One day, we will have enough."
"Yes, there is this method." Zhou Lina threw herself into Mu Fei'er's arms and shouted with joy. Jie Juan said coldly, "You wish for it."
Zhou Lina was so upset that she almost yelled, "What are you wishful thinking? The captain and you just said the same thing. The Lord God is not that harsh on weak teams. Anyway, the difficulty of horror movies is proportional to our strength. Why do we have to become so strong? We might as well save the points."
"Okay, stop arguing, Jiejuan. They haven't experienced a team battle yet, so it's not their fault." Meng Xiang hurriedly stopped the impending quarrel.
Mu Feier looked puzzled, looked at Meng Xiang, and said shyly: "Brother Meng, what does this have to do with the team battle?"
"Let me explain Fei'er's proposal this time." Meng Xiang said: "I don't know what rules the Lord God uses, but at a certain time, the Lord God will arrange two or more reincarnation teams to enter the same horror movie, and get huge rewards by killing enemy players. This kind of thing will cause wars between teams. And the purpose of the team battle is believed to be that the Lord God wants to prevent what Fei'er just said from happening. If you don't strengthen yourself, you will become a feirou in the eyes of others during the team battle."
Meng Xiang paused and added: "Moreover, the difficulty of horror movies should be slightly higher than the power we get from exchange and enhancement. However, the power we improve through our own understanding and practice, or the skills we create ourselves, as well as the weapons we get through other means, etc., should be outside the evaluation of the Lord God. So as long as we are strengthened and then further improved on our own, we can safely get through every horror movie. My strength comes from practice, so our team's evaluation is so low, or for me personally, the difficulty of horror movies now is not difficult for me, but my strength is not enough to protect each of you. Therefore, strengthening is the only way for reincarnations to survive in the reincarnation world."
Mu Fei'er's face showed a look of sudden enlightenment, and she seemed to admire Meng Xiang even more.
