Next to a stream on the outskirts of the forest.
Gu Moli held the Zunyi sword in one hand and the submachine gun in the other. After confirming again and again that there was no danger, he began to search the entire cabin.
It’s different from the fact that it’s hard to find a true friend.
It's Hard to Find a Confidant was a conclusion she derived from her imagination of the conditions for passing the level, but there was actually no evidence to support it, so she and the Master of the Ascension Pavilion decided to secretly go to the Queen's room and verify this conclusion by asking the magic mirror.
Gu Moli came to the same conclusion through observation.
"That queen has long black hair, skin as white as snow, and lips as red as blood. This in itself is the most suspicious thing."
But this is just a suspicion after all.
Reasoning requires evidence.
That's why Gu Moli chose to act alone and look for evidence in the forest.
The evidence he was looking for was the cabin in front of him.
"Hunter's hut!"
"Sure enough! If the queen is really Snow White from decades later, then that means the original Snow White story has already ended, and so have the characters in it!"
In the most popular version of the Snow White story, there are roughly the following characters.
The seven dwarfs, Snow White, the queen, the prince from another country, and the huntsman.
For most people, the first four characters are familiar, but the fifth character, the hunter, may not be remembered for a while.
But this is normal.
Because the hunter was just a supporting role from beginning to end, but as the first person who attacked Snow White but then let her go and betrayed the queen, his value is huge.
first.
If this story were set in reality, the hunter who betrayed the queen would definitely not be able to return to his country. However, for ordinary people, leaving their homes is an unacceptable thing, so the hunter most likely chose to stay in the forest closest to the country.
Secondly.
The former Snow White became the new queen and even triggered a coup. The prince in the story has died, and another princess escaped into the forest. All this is too coincidental. No matter how you think about it, there must be a black hand behind it who wants to reveal the truth.
It is necessary to understand what Snow White actually experienced.
And the hunter who let Snow White go.
It’s the best way to understand it all.
Of course, if placed in pure reality, Gu Moli's inference is actually a bit too arbitrary, but this is a game, Gu Moli can be sure that as long as the hunter exists, the script will set his residence in a corner of the forest, because this is the clue given to the player by the system.
After playing so many games, Gu Moli has already had his own understanding of the script of "Hero Trial".
The world view and characters of the script itself are very real.
One can't help but wonder whether this is the real world.
But in some settings, the principles of the game are deliberately followed.
This kind of gameplay, on the one hand, breaks the players' doubts about the authenticity of the game world, and on the other hand, it can also help players get a better gaming experience.
This is also something that can be exploited.
"Sure enough, no one has lived here for a long time. The hunter finally failed to escape, or was killed by the queen at that time."
"Or Snow White..."
Some things just don't stand up to scrutiny.
The hunter who saved Snow White's life but disappeared in the end.
It is harmless in the story, but in reality it makes people doubt the details.
Gu Moli searched left and right in the cabin and found a rotten bow and arrow, a rusty iron sword, and some dried meat that seemed to be stored for the winter. These were nothing, but in the end, Gu Moli dug out a piece of yellow paper from the layers of dried meat.
Soon, a system prompt popped up.
Item: Hunter's Last Words
Quality: Broken
Equipment requirements: None
Quest Item: Are you sure you want to open it
... ..hehe.
Gu Moli opened the yellow paper without any hesitation.
I'll just take a look.
What's wrong with you
Can you jump into reality and hit me
After opening it, the characters on the yellow paper were automatically converted into Chinese by the system panel and came into Gu Moli's eyes. Although it had been translated, it perfectly restored the information on the paper. The handwriting was sloppy, and it could be seen that the person who wrote these words was definitely not in a very good mood at the time.
I betrayed the queen... It's unimaginable that I would choose to betray the queen
My family, my children, I knew clearly how miserable my fate would be if I betrayed the queen, but I still chose to betray her.
It's all that woman's fault!
That damn woman!
That devilish woman!
Snow White... She drove me crazy. Under her tears, I had no way to refuse. My body seemed to have lost control. I just felt pity for her... Damn it! Asshole! If I had known she was such a person, I should have pierced her chest with the sword in my hand at the first moment!
I betrayed the queen
I lost everything
I... ..
The handwriting stopped at this paragraph, but the content made Gu Moli frown. This paragraph was different from what he imagined. It was just a man's regretful confession. It did not have much value. The bad words to Snow White were more of a manifestation of anger and shame.
No reference value.
But at the end of the yellow paper, the handwriting changed. It was no longer a black mark of ink, but a dark red color, like dried blood!
... ..No!
Wrong! All wrong!
The writing stopped abruptly.
However, just when Gu Moli thought everything was over, the handwriting changed again.
The black handwriting and the dark red handwriting all gradually dimmed at this moment. In just a moment, all the handwriting on the yellow paper disappeared. Then, a bright, real blood-red handwriting slowly emerged and fell in the center of the yellow paper...!
I discovered a secret that I shouldn't have discovered.
I had a chance to salvage everything.
But now, the pursuers are here, and I have no way to retreat. I believe that it won't be long before they catch me, and then I will become the fertilizer of this land. I leave this will not to atone for my sins, but just to tell those who see this will...
... ... Why don't you stay with me
Gu Moli: "!!!"
Boom!
With a tremor of his hand, Gu Moli subconsciously threw the yellow paper in his hand, and the next second, the whole yellow paper suddenly caught fire! Gu Moli wanted to leave, but the originally dilapidated wooden house seemed to have become a man-eating monster at this moment. There seemed to be a pair of eyes flashing between the cracks of the wall and the floor. In the field outside the window, the corners of the scarecrow's mouth were wide open, as if laughing at Gu Moli.
The vegetables that were originally growing well nearby turned yellow in an instant, the fertile soil became dry, and broken bones could be faintly seen in it. The sky also darkened, and the afterglow of dusk seemed like a huge halo, spreading all the way from the horizon.
“What the hell!?”
Something is wrong.
Did I mess up
