On the fifth floor of the Star Prison, Jiang Yiyi's feet stepped on this land. Before he could even glance at it, he received a big gift package from the game.
The nonexistent game interface popped up in front of Jiang Yiyi's eyes, and several windows popped up, blocking Jiang Yiyi's normal field of vision.
Jiang Yiyi stopped and stared at the floating screen in front of him.
"Congratulations on reaching the fifth level of Star Prison! The achievement system is being activated and achievements are being issued."
"The strategy progress update has been detected and the main mission is being restarted."
"The patch update is completed and the system update is completed."
Jiang Yiyi stared at the notification for a few seconds, and for a moment he had the illusion that he was really in a game—if it weren't for the smell of blood that always lingered in his nose.
Death and danger are the everlasting themes of the Star Prison. Blood and corpses are the everlasting decorations of the Star Prison. They dye the place into a bloody look, which is extremely real and extremely terrifying.
If this was a game, it would be an incredibly bad game—for normal people.
But for Jiang Yiyi, the only difference between games and reality is probably to add a bit of drama to all this absurdity.
He studied the notifications, then clicked them one by one.
As a result, a new notification popped up in front of his eyes.
"Congratulations on your new achievements: Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, blood-stained style, rough nerves, shadow of death, reaper..."
Jiang Yiyi has gained quite a lot of achievements. A long list slowly appeared on the notification bar. Still not all the achievements have been refreshed. However, Jiang Yiyi has lost his patience. He clicked off the notification bar casually. The last achievement was "Reincarnation". It passed by in a blink of an eye, overwhelmed by many achievements, without attracting the slightest attention.
"Main mission: There seems to be some amazing secret hidden at the bottom of the Star Prison. Maybe you should go say hello to the professor."
Jiang Yiyi paused for two seconds on the name "Professor" and clicked on the notification.
"The system update is completed, the existence of Jian Si has been detected, and the archiving function has been enabled."
Jiang Yiyi stared at this line of words for two seconds, then glanced sideways at Jian Si.
Jian Si, who was looking around, was keenly aware of Jiang Yiyi's gaze. He quickly turned around and caught Jiang Yiyi's gaze.
Unperceivable darkness came over the surface, dragging Jian Si into the abyss.
Jian Si stood frozen on the spot, all the thoughts swirling in his mind instantly cleared away, leaving only the slight regret in the eyes in front of him, which was clearly imprinted on his heart.
The other party seems to be regretting that he can't kill me
This thought came to Jian Si quietly, and disappeared in his mind at an even faster speed, leaving only a pure blank.
There is no thinking, no emotion, and a completely blank space where nothing can be read.
It's a bit troublesome. Jiang Yiyi naturally had this idea in his mind. After all, he never breaks the agreement.
Once again, too high moral standards can sometimes cause him some trouble. For example, at this moment, although Jiang Yiyi is very interested in this so-called "archive function", in view of the agreement he once gave to the other party, Jiang Yiyi finally decided to Regrettably, he restrained his curiosity.
He was not in a hurry. After all, there would be a day when the agreement would expire. As long as Jian Si remained like this, it would not be too far away before Jian Si broke the contract.
Jiang Yiyi clicked off the last notification blocking his retina. There was no longer any obstruction in his sight, allowing him to re-observe the bottom of this so-called star prison.
Jiang Yiyi's eyes swept over the architectural style in the distance that was the same as the previous floors, and he had to admit with regret: Although it is the famous fifth floor, it seems to be no different from the previous floors.
The magician was not in a hurry to take them to the fifth floor. On the contrary, he stood aside very leisurely, as if waiting for something.
Unlike Jiang Yiyi, Lin Yi is more familiar with the Star Prison. At least he easily discovered the difference between the fifth floor and the other floors - where the playground should have been, there was a gray building that blended into the back. The color tone makes it unremarkable.
If he wasn't familiar with the Star Prison, he might have ignored its existence.
There’s no playground on the fifth floor? Or is that the playground on the fifth floor
"Why are you here?" When the magician's exaggerated tone sounded, a figure appeared in front of the road.
For the first time, the madman's eyes took the initiative to move away from Jiang Yiyi, fell on that figure, and then slowly assumed a defensive posture.
"How did he know someone was coming?" Lin Yi glanced at the dim communicator beside the magician's ear and made sure that the communicator was not working before the figure appeared.
"Because he is stronger than you." Before the figure arrived, the voice came over first.
Lin Yi was confused and asked again: "How could he hear me from such a long distance?"
"Because he... is super powerful." The magician continued with a smile, but his eyes did not fall on Lin Yi, but on Jiang Yiyi. He asked Jiang Yiyi a little urgently, even very urgently: "Doctor, how are you? ?”
Jiang Yiyi's gaze paused for two seconds on the invisible figure in the distance. The three words "Gatekeeper" floated up quietly, but it was not over yet. A small red symbol appeared immediately afterwards. High risk".
What are the new features after the game system update
Jiang Yiyi moved his eyes away and looked at the magician.
After the nickname "Magician" appeared, a small red symbol "High Risk" appeared.
Jiang Yiyi looked to his side thoughtfully.
Lin Yi, the "warning" of the light yellow symbol; Madman, the "danger" of the light red symbol; Brief introduction...
Jiang Yiyi stopped sweeping away, and his eyes paused on Jian Si.
The crimson symbol of "extreme danger" appeared above Jian Si's head without a nickname.
Extremely dangerous...
Jian Si lowered her eyes, avoiding Jiang Yiyi's gaze, and stared at the ground under her feet with extra calmness. Although she didn't know why the doctor looked at him again, the regret that spread in the doctor's eyes because she couldn't kill him just now, It seemed that he was still in front of him, making him extremely well-behaved.
The emotional anatomy diagram faithfully reflects all the emotions of the other party: nervousness, fear, depression, and fear.
Not only is there no problem, the layering is even rendered perfectly.
And this is the most dangerous NPC Jiang Yiyi has seen so far.
Jiang Yiyi felt regret again, and this regret almost broke through his moral and intellectual restraint.
But before that, the magician's words stopped his surging thoughts: "Doctor? You seem a little silent?" He looked around with a smile: "Is it because you feel something? Do you mind sharing it with me?"
Jiang Yiyi's eyes fell on the magician.
The results are immediate.
Before realizing that he was about to be dragged into somewhere by the darkness, the magician spun around in a circle, avoiding Jiang Yiyi's sight.
"Doctor, calm down, the gatekeeper is not as easy to talk to as I am." The magician turned his back to Jiang Yiyi, his tone was as exaggerated as ever, and you could hardly hear the solemnity mixed in it: "The management contract on the fifth floor is different from the previous floors. , prison guards have the right to self-defense.”
"In other words, we can kill people."
"I found that you have been trying to explore my psychological fluctuations since just now." Jiang Yiyi stared at the oval-shaped back of his head in front of him and warned the other person unhurriedly: "This is very dangerous."
Jiang Yiyi still hasn't seen the full picture of psychological skills, but at least he can be sure that this is by no means common sense psychology.
Rather, it is an unimaginable “game skill”.
"There is nothing that is not dangerous here." The magician said with a smile: "As far as you are concerned, doctor, for me, it is not considered dangerous."
Even though you said that, why are you still turning your back to me
"Jiang Yiyi?" A cold voice sounded, and the first impression was like a cold, hard stone hitting the ground with a dull sound.
Jiang Yiyi turned his head and glanced at the gatekeeper who had walked up to him at some point. Just like his voice, his appearance was extremely upright and serious, and the years had left a deep mark on his face.
"Gatekeeper?"
The eyes of Jiang Yiyi and the other party collided. The gatekeeper's eyes narrowed slightly, passing Jiang Yiyi's line of sight, hanging on Jiang Yiyi's throat.
"Do you know the professor?"
"do not know."
"There's something similar in your eyes," the gatekeeper commented simply.
Jiang Yiyi raised his eyebrows: "It seems that I really should go and meet him."
"The fifth floor is different from the other floors."
The gatekeeper stretched out his hand, pinched the magician's neck, and turned him back to the front as if he was lifting a little chicken. Thinking of the way the magician had easily lifted Lin Yi before, the other person's hand could be said to be lifting a weight as lightly as it was light. Living up to his high-risk rating.
"We don't arrange prisons." The gatekeeper raised his chin in a certain direction: "If you want to live in a single room, it proves that you have enough strength to live in a single room."
"Sorry to interrupt." Jian Si frowned and said, "You mean you encourage prisoners to kill each other?"
The gatekeeper's eyes fell on Jian Si, but he immediately moved away because he was too weak.
"There are many rules on the fifth floor. You'd better keep the following points in mind, as they affect how long you can survive on the fifth floor."
"First, it is prohibited to kill anyone under any circumstances. Second, it is absolutely prohibited to enter the North District. Third, obey the orders of the prison guards."
Jian Si grasped the key point: "The first point conflicts with your last sentence. Since killing is not allowed, how can we die?"
"There are many strange ways to die, but there is more than just being killed." The gatekeeper was very impatient with Jian Si's endless questions. He picked up Jian Si and threw it to the magician: "Keep an eye on him."
The magician took Jian Si's hand steadily and covered Jian Si's mouth tightly.
Jian Si tried to struggle with all his teeth and claws, but was suppressed by the opponent's hand.
This guy... is extremely dangerous
That's really not noticeable at all.
After Lin Yi watched this scene, he couldn't help but ask: "What will happen if you violate these three rules?"
The gatekeeper gave the answer simply and crudely: "I will die."
After answering Lin Yi's question, he asked Lin Yi: "Are you Jiang Yiyi's special caretaker?"
Lin Yi nodded.
"Then what you should worry about most is yourself." The gatekeeper said calmly: "If you are here, you will only die faster than them."
The gatekeeper's eyes fell on the madman. He looked at the madman who was always vigilant and seemed to be ready to take action at any time. Without saying anything, his eyes fell on Jiang Yiyi.
"You bring a lot of baggage with you, and it's not a good choice."
Hearing this, Jiang Yiyi couldn't help but smile and said sincerely: "You have been talking to me for so long, but it may not be a good choice."
There were some subtle changes in the gatekeeper's rigid face, and before others could take a closer look, they disappeared and quickly returned to his rigid appearance.
"I know you are very confident in your abilities." The gatekeeper said calmly: "This is normal. I have seen too many people like you. Soon, you will know how vast the world is, and as a How small the individual is in it.”
"I'm looking forward to it very much." Jiang Yiyi said sincerely: "In fact, this is the reason why I came here most of the time."
In this world, or in other words, under the layers of blood and death in this "game", what interesting things are hidden
Jiang Yiyi showed a bright smile that was rarely seen at the other party.
"The fourth floor is so boring. I hope I won't be disappointed here."
The gatekeeper was indifferent to his performance. No matter what crazy and strange meaning the other party's words, expressions, and tone revealed, he was like a rock, unmoved.
In fact, in Jiang Yiyi's emotional anatomy diagram, the other party's emotion has only one word "calm" from beginning to end.
Of course, if anyone is interested in the anatomical plane of the Gatekeeper, there is only a blank space on it - yes, not even an anatomical plane constructed of blood and bones, a pure blank.
Maybe it's because the opponent's power exceeds the upper limit of this skill, or maybe it's because of some special reason that the skill fails in front of the opponent.
But this doesn't make Jiang Yiyi panic - after all, even if the anatomical plane clearly marks his weakness, he can't beat the gatekeeper.
The gatekeeper silently led Jiang Yiyi and the others towards the fifth floor.
The fifth floor is very quiet. This is the first thought that everyone has when they actually enter the fifth floor.
On the well-planned roads, there is almost no living person to be seen, and it is so empty that it is too empty.
Lin Yi followed and walked a few steps. Seeing this unusually empty scene, he asked again: "Is there anyone?"
The magician covered Jian Si's mouth with one hand and spoke with interest: "Isn't it normal that there is no one around? This is a star prison."
Lin Yi was a little wary of the magician—anyone who had experienced the treatment of being dragged away while seriously injured would be just as wary of this man who looked particularly unreliable.
The reason is just fear, not vigilance...
Lin Yi glanced at Jiang Yiyi aside. With the doctor here, even if the other party wanted to do anything, he would just be seeking death.
Yes, Lin Yi believed in this very naturally, and even felt relaxed because of it.
"Are we going to the playground?" Lin Yi glanced at the gray building not far away: "There is no relaxation time here?"
"Yes." The magician said in an exaggerated tone: "Our prisoners are out all day and night."
"In that building?"
It was difficult to tell the purpose of that dusty building from its appearance. After getting closer, Lin Yi noticed something strange. All the building materials on the fifth floor seemed to be specially made, and the sound insulation effect and sturdiness were excellent. So much so that they almost reached the door and still didn't hear a sound.
The place was too empty and dead, almost making people suspect that they had arrived at a dead place without any living people.
"You're so curious, wouldn't it be clear if you go in and take a look?" The magician stopped and glanced at the gatekeeper.
The gatekeeper took out the card and swiped it on the sensor at the door. The closed door slowly opened, revealing the hidden scenery.
From the outside, the gray building has about two floors. Because it occupies a large area, when people first see the appearance of the building, it is easy to picture the interior of a prison full of rooms, mistakenly thinking that this is also a building. prison.
But the scene after the door opened easily dispelled their initial guesses.
Behind the door is a huge, unobstructed space with no obstructions. There is no division in the space. From the door to the end of the room, there is a spacious open space.
In this open space, there are scattered water outlets, food points, and independent toilets.
The crowd formed piles of groups around them, and even developed rough tents and slightly shabby floors.
How can I describe the scene in front of me
Let's put it this way, it is extremely reasonable to remove the background of the Star Prison and change it to any background setting of wilderness survival or doomsday survival.
Because with just one glance, you can know one fact from the group of people - there is a social form naturally formed under limited materials.
Lin Yi almost lost control after seeing this.
He is a somewhat foolish idealist, which is clearly known from his former organization and his past actions.
Therefore, he could betray the Nian Luo Society and the Star Supervisory Committee calmly, but he could not calmly face the artificial Colosseum that was deliberately created in front of him.
These prisoners, whose basic needs are deliberately controlled and placed in an isolated and harsh environment, require little thought to figure out what will happen next.
They will constantly bite each other, constantly fight for food, water or even just a better position. They will try their best to survive, which means that some of them are destined to die due to failure.
"You..." Lin Yi only said two words, and Jiang Yiyi suddenly put her hand on his shoulder.
So Lin Yi suddenly stopped talking, turned to look at Jiang Yiyi, and stood aside silently.
The magician was disappointed with his reaction: "I have heard some stories about you before, and you are still a character..." But in front of Jiang Yiyi, the remaining legendary feeling in him was completely suppressed.
He stopped talking without finishing his words and turned his gaze to Jiang Yiyi: "Doctor, how are you doing?"
When the door opened, the crowd looked outside. After discovering the figures of the gatekeeper and the magician, they looked away one after another. Some people were sitting lazily in their seats in a daze, while others were doing something. Silent fight.
To be precise, these fights were scattered throughout the room, everywhere, and yet inexplicably harmonious.
This place has its own order.
"It's much worse than I thought." Jiang Yiyi didn't begrudge his calmness: "It's also much worse."
"Of course, for the doctor, this is definitely not interesting." The magician was not surprised by his calmness: "But the rules are the rules. Doctors, no matter who they are, have to come here when they have just arrived on the fifth floor."
Lin Yi raised his eyes and moved his lips. The madman's eyes that had been watching the gatekeeper suddenly moved and fell on him.
Lin Yi, who received the silent warning from the other party, shut his mouth again.
"A show of force?" Jiang Yiyi guessed.
"No, this level of intimidation is too disrespectful to the doctor." The magician said sincerely: "This is a small greeting from the fifth floor."
The magician gestured towards the room: "Prove to the fifth floor what kind of room you deserve."
"To be honest with the doctor, there are many kinds of rooms on the fifth floor." The magician leaned against the wall and said slowly: "The most useless ones don't even have rooms and can only live here."
Therefore, these people are the most useless group of people in the eyes of magicians.
Jiang Yiyi looked around at the people in the room, and a silver light suddenly flashed from his fingertips: "I must tell you something first."
The magician raised his eyebrows.
Jiang Yiyi turned to look at the unusually silent gatekeeper: "I don't like it."
"That's really a pity." The magician's tone was as exaggerated as ever: "If you are lucky enough, can I know what it is that you don't like?"
He glanced at the lazy crowd: "Is it the treatment of those people? Or is it our request? Or... everything?"
"I find that you are really interested in my ideas." Jiang Yiyi turned the blade with a long-lost ease - the fourth floor was really boring. The contract he reached with King Ye undoubtedly bound him. he.
This tells us not to promise anything easily, especially when you know that your moral standards are extremely high.
But now, everything was just right, the occasion, environment, atmosphere and even Jiang Yiyi's mood were just right, which made him want to do something - enjoy the long-lost feeling.
The magician was keenly aware of Jiang Yiyi's changes.
If we say that Jiang Yiyi just now is like an abyss, hidden deep in the darkness, causing all those who glimpse him to fall into endless fear involuntarily.
At this moment, Jiang Yiyi was like the abyss coming to life. He no longer silently stared at the outside world, but flowed unscrupulously on the ground, leaving his mark wherever he passed.
Is he... excited
No, what is he enjoying
die? Blood? Or the fear of others
The magician's thoughts raced in his mind, trying to determine Jiang Yiyi's current state - he now seemed to have some understanding of what the document said about nowhere to start.
It's not that the managers at those levels are too incompetent, it's that Jiang Yiyi is like this - contradictory, conflicting, and unable to construct a thinking framework and logical principles, so that they can't determine the starting point for analyzing Jiang Yiyi's behavior.
"But the idea itself cannot prove anything. Only behavior is the basis for all judgments."
Jiang Yiyi took a step and entered the room.
As a result, everyone behind him took a step forward and entered the room.
The madman turned away from the gatekeeper and looked at the ordinary people who looked at them because of their transgression.
Lin Yi held the baton and frowned. Although there was a look of embarrassment on his face, his movements did not slow down a step.
Jian Si... Jian Si struggled from the magician's grasp and hurriedly followed them into the room.
Following their movements, the lazy crowd and the fighting crowd stopped and slowly stood up.
Originally, when the crowd was scattered into a small group, it was not conspicuous and even seemed a little small. But when they stood up and merged into a group, people found that the number of these people was far greater than they imagined.
There were only four of Jiang Yiyi and the others, but across from them was a huge group of people that could not be counted.
The confrontation did not exist from the beginning, because the number of people was extremely imbalanced, so that they could easily wrap four people into a circle.
The magician leaned against the wall at the door, watching everything that was about to happen, and was ready to take action if someone violated the rules.
However, he was a little disappointed.
Regarding Jiang Yiyi's behavior, anyone who understands the limits of his own abilities should know how stupid it is to single out such a large number of people without decisive force.
Anyone who knows what Jiang Yiyi has done will know what Jiang Yiyi is really good at.
But at the moment, it seems that he has chosen the stupid plan of using force that he is not good at to prove his ability.
There is no doubt that this is a sign of arrogance.
The smooth sailing on the first few levels seemed to give him some misunderstanding about his abilities.
This was the fifth floor, and he was facing hundreds of ordinary people who were proficient in fighting and had survived on the fifth floor until now.
Ants cannot kill an elephant, but enough ants can eat a living elephant in an instant.
Among the many behaviors of Jiang Yiyi and others after they arrived on the fifth floor, the only thing that the magician could appreciate was that even if Jiang Yiyi made such a stupid choice, the burdens he brought still made the choice without hesitation. Obedience - this at least proved that Jiang Yiyi's rule over them was enough to crush the threats posed by hundreds or even thousands of people.
At this time, the magician who was judging Jiang Yiyi from a high position may not have thought that within a few minutes, he overturned his own thoughts and truly realized the meaning of Jiang Yiyi's words.
Thoughts themselves cannot prove anything, only behavior is the basis for all judgments.
