Infinite loop!
After walking through all seven floors, return to the first floor.
Repeatedly, until eternity.
The setting that I have only seen in horror movies, I didn't expect that it will actually happen to me now.
Li Yuebai didn't know whether to cry or laugh for a while, he just felt cold all over, colder than ever before.
Same as last time, that Ye Qing appeared again.
He seemed to have forgotten that he had been dismantled once, and continued to pretend to be the Ye Qing in his memory, appearing in front of Li Yuebai.
"This time, don't you choose to kill me?" Ye Qing approached step by step, stretched out his cold hand, and touched Li Yuebai's forehead: "Or do you want to be trapped here until you die?"
"No." Li Yuebai grabbed his wrist and shook it away forcefully.
Ye Qing smiled, hugged him tightly, his cold body pressed against his, the cold air invaded the bone marrow along the contacted skin.
"The person you are holding now has become a demon. Everything he did was because you didn't kill him." Ye Qing repeated each word in Li Yuebai's ear with a hoarse voice: "You can do it once. , Twice is fine, but what if, when the cycle reaches a thousand times? How about 10,000 times? Are you really not going to pull out your gun and solve everything neatly?"
Li Yuebai let Ye Qing hold him indifferently, without resisting.
Yes, no one can endure the torture of an infinite cycle, no matter how powerful a person is, they will be worn out until they are exhausted, they will collapse, and they will have to obey the orders of the leader.
"System..." Li Yuebai whispered to the system in his heart: "Check the time, and what are the conditions for victory in this world?"
In fact, the time has been displayed in the lower right corner, and there are still twenty hours.
"Dear host, the victory condition is to kill Gao Chengyu himself." The system answered honestly.
Very reasonable conditions, but now Li Yuebai doesn't know where Gao Chengyu's real body is. From the beginning to the end, he only appeared in the form of a phantom.
Even if he knew where he was, he was not sure that he could be defeated.
"Then tell me first, how can you escape from this damn infinite loop!" Li Yuebai secretly got angry at the system.
"Dear host, it depends on your ability." The system is polite.
The expected answer.
"Where is the real Ye Qing, contact him." Li Yuebai ordered.
"Hey, the real Ye Qing?" The system didn't know whether it was pretending to be stupid, or setting up obstacles: "Isn't he right here? Why do you need me to contact you?"
"This is fake, I repeat, where is the real Ye Qing? Contact him."
"Dear host, I've already said, it's here." The system's voice was a little playful: "You can contact him in person."
right here
This sentence is terrifying to think about carefully, and it makes Li Yuebai get goosebumps all over his body.
He shivered, pushed the fake Ye Qing away, and looked around.
Of course, the surrounding area was empty, and the only living thing was the crow that had been sitting on the window sill.
crow…
Li Yuebai felt that he was really going crazy.
He walked towards the crow gently step by step, squatted down, looked at it, and asked cautiously, "Xiaoye, is that you?"
The crow flapped its wings noncommittally.
"How many stars are there in the sky? Answer me." Li Yuebai asked again without giving up.
Ga, ga, ga, ga.
The crow called four times very neatly.
"How many powers of ten is the unit?" Li Yuebai's eyes widened suddenly.
The crow jumped eleven times in place.
Four hundred billion, yes.
Ye Qing... This crow is Ye Qing...
Li Yuebai was shocked by his crazy idea for a moment and couldn't breathe.
He lowered his head and stretched out his hand to touch the crow, but he was worried that it would run away.
Judging from the eyes of the crow, it also roughly understood its own thoughts.
Li Yuebai didn't know how many thoughts he had for a moment, and in the next second, he took out the gun from his arms.
"Your uncle, you want to trick me with such a clumsy technique?" Li Yuebai almost roared and aimed his gun at the crow, and pulled the trigger at the position of its heart without hesitation: "Get lost!"
He was so angry that he was about to explode, and if he didn't vent it out, he would really go crazy.
The crow was startled, dodged, barely dodged, screamed and flew out of the window, but it was still scratched by the silver bullet, and a few drops of blood and countless pieces of black feathers fell down.
With its injury, the phantom of fake Ye Qing dissipated again.
Before shooting, Li Yuebai was 100% sure that the crow was the caster, the vampire who used spells to create illusions.
"Dear host, you are too impulsive." The system laughed loudly: "What if it is really Ye Qing?"
"Impossible." Li Yuebai retracted the gun: "Do you remember what time it was when we first came to the Qixing Building? At that time, the crow was already there."
"Three hours ago." The system replied.
"And the last time I contacted Ye Qing, he was still at the seaside." Li Yuebai took out his phone and used the calculator on it to calculate the distance: "Even if it is the nearest seaside, it is absolutely impossible for Ye Qing to be closer to the seaside." I got here early, this crow can't be him."
"Even so... just in case..." The system still felt that his actions were too reckless.
"No chance." Li Yuebai patted away the crow feathers that fell on his body in disgust: "It is absolutely impossible for the real Ye Qing to quietly do nothing when he sees a false self entangled with me. Don't do it."
This crow can only be a spellcaster.
Its eyes, cry, and every move of the phantom are always connected with each other. It knows the answer of 400 billion. After it is injured, the phantom dissipates... everything points to one answer—it is the caster.
"Even if it is the caster, dear host, if you missed it and didn't kill it, what should we do?" the system pretended to be worried.
"It's injured." Li Yuebai walked to the window sill, carefully picked up the few black feathers, and dipped the crow's blood that dripped on the window sill: "After it was injured, the power of the phantom will definitely weaken, so you can escape. hope will grow."
"That's not necessarily..." the system said.
"You can't escape." - There was an extra line of writing on the parchment.
"Yes, dear host, do you know such a rule - only the caster can escape from the illusion created by the caster," the system said.
"Then you just wait and see." Li Yuebai sneered, left the window, and stepped on the stairs leading to the second floor.
"Wait, dear host, why do you continue to go up?" The system hastily dissuaded: "Don't you know the consequences of going up? It's useless, this is an infinite loop..."
"Because I know, I want to compete with the spellcaster." Li Yuebai's footsteps did not stop at all: "I want to know whether I was killed by it first, or it was exhausted by me first... Keep it like this How much mana will be consumed in such an infinite loop? Think about it... "
"You are so brave." The system's tone was a bit sarcastic.
Not brave or stupid, just no other choice.
If you stop, stand in the empty tower, and look around at the gloomy surroundings, you will only be more desperate.
No matter how tough Li Yuebai's attitude is, in fact, he has no bottom in his heart.
He also often suspects that he may collapse in the next second.
The second cycle, the third cycle, the fourth time, the tenth time...
Hour by hour passed, and the countdown soon became 10 hours.
After 10 hours, if you haven't defeated Gao Chengyu, you will lose this time.
Li Yuebai once again witnessed the fake Ye Qing sucking Xiao Wan's blood dry in front of his face.
But this time, Ye Qing's figure seemed to have faded a lot, and there were also pauses and freezes in his movements.
Could the caster finally be unable to hold on anymore
Li Yuebai barely stood against the wall, panting with difficulty.
My heart hurts like being torn open every moment, my hands are shaking, my throat feels dry, and everything in front of me becomes blurred.
indistinct...
Li Yuebai watched helplessly as everything in front of him was covered with a layer of grilles like glass in winter.
Is my body functioning to the limit, or the caster's magic power reaching the limit
In the next second, he heard the sound of cracking. Right at the center of the tower on this floor, a crack was opened in the air. It was a very small crack, as if someone had knocked hard on a glass barrier.
This is... an enchantment
Unfortunately, the trend of fragmentation was quickly suppressed, and the cracks did not continue to expand.
Li Yuebai walked to the crack with strength, feeling that he was observing through the glass.
Through this blurred "glass", he saw a familiar figure.
It's Ye Qing.
This Ye Qing was completely different from what he remembered, but Li Yuebai still recognized it at a glance.
He was wearing the most classic everyday suit, but that suit was dyed weird red and blue by some kind of paint. He was slender and in poor condition, completely different from the calm and calm look he remembered.
Is he... crying
I don't know if it's the illusion of the blue tear, but from this angle, Ye Qing really seems to be crying.
why cry? Because you can't find me
Li Yuebai slammed his fist hard on the cracked glass, but made no sound.
"Xiaoye, come here..." As soon as he opened his mouth, he realized that his voice was already hoarse. After such a long journey, no drop of water entered, such a result was almost inevitable.
Even if it was such a voice, Ye Qing didn't hear it at all.
They are separated by an enchantment, separated in two completely different worlds.
Li Yuebai walked around the tower and finally had to admit this cruel fact.
Through the glass, it can be seen that the place Ye Qing is in is also the Seven Star Building, also on the second floor.
But he couldn't see himself at all.
I could only see him through the small area where the crack appeared.
Sounds, smells... and everything else can't communicate with each other at all.
In an instant, Li Yuebai finally understood what the system meant by "he is here".
Ye Qing came here after hearing the conditions proposed by Gao Chengyu, maybe a step later than himself, a few hours later, but not too late.
But in the ten long hours, what Ye Qing faced was an empty Seven Star Building, without himself, without Gao Chengyu, without vampires, nothing.
Perhaps Ye Qing also asked the system: Where is Li Yuebai
The answer given by the system can only be: right here.
It's here, but we can't see each other anyway.
