"How long have you been in this situation? Zhou Yue, does he know?" Mu Xing deliberately pinched Mu Qin's wrist hard, and his fingertips sank deep into the flesh, and then he managed to get a little pulse.
The cold light in the spaceship set off Mu Qin's skin, a bloodless gray, with weak breathing and cold temperature.
If it wasn't for Mu Qin talking to him with his eyes open, Mu Xing would have thought that this guy was dead, and the one standing in front of him was just a realistic wax figure.
Compared with the bad situation, Mu Qin himself was very calm, even relaxed, and said softly: "It has been like this since I left the marginal world and returned to the real world, and this feeling of weakness has intensified with the passage of time. Zhou Yue knew about my situation, but he didn’t know it was so serious, because I blocked the sharing of his perception.”
After that, Mu Qin looked up and down the little Xingxing suspiciously: "Again, don't you have the same situation as me?"
"I'm not sure about this. I just came to this world, and it won't be long. Even if I have this symptom, I'm afraid it won't be as serious as yours."
Mu Xing touched his body, and said: "But there may be other reasons. After all, Ashin and I are completely fused souls. It is possible that when I leave the marginal world, I will get rid of the missing body. Identity, living in this world as Ashin."
"Ashin is a human being, and the rules will not attack humans, so naturally they will not attack me." Mu Xing guessed, "That's why I didn't have the same situation as you?"
"It is indeed possible." Mu Xing's statement is not unreasonable. Mu Qin smiled bitterly while thinking deeply: "It seems that I have to follow your example and eat Zhou Yue alive, and then take his identity away."
Who knows he wouldn't do that.
Mu Xing didn't think of any way to help Mu Qin, so he said: "We can ask that reindeer alien later, since they created the space of the edge world, then for existences like you and me, they should You have to do some research, right?"
Mu Qin and Xiao Xingxing discussed this topic for a while.
About ten minutes later, Captain Ivan sent a call, saying that they had found five living human bodies that met the standard.
"Are you sure you have found it all?" Mu Qin asked.
"Except for the old man's body that Mu Xing pointed out, we have tested the other four bodies one by one. Apart from this, all other similar bodies found are substandard and distributed in different corners of this area."
"Very good." Mu Qin was a little agitated, "Allocate manpower, stand next to these five bodies, take your weapons and load them, and turn on the communicator to be ready at any time. As long as I say do it, you will do it. Shell!"
Mu Qin had previously asked Mu Chen and the reindeer through Little Xingxing, how hard is the "coffin container" that holds the body of the creature? Can human firearms break through this kind of container and injure the body inside? The final answer was yes.
This kind of "coffin container" made by aliens, in order to better preserve the biological body, is very functional in terms of function, but not enough in terms of defense. Even if it is a human firearm, the impact of bullets fired in bursts Enough to break the container.
Therefore, it is only necessary to let Ivan and his team members stand beside these shells, and destroy these shells as soon as Mu Qin sends a signal.
"Should we keep an extra hand?" Mu Xing suggested, "In case Cruise has one or more extra spare bodies that have not been disclosed, they are still hidden somewhere and have not been found by us... After that Cruise ran out of the fringe world, what should we do with this 'hole card' against us?"
"It is indeed a problem, but I think of two ways to prevent his move." Mu Qin said.
Little Xingxing was curious: "What way?"
"First, let the reindeer break the defense program left by Cruise on the spacecraft system as soon as possible, and completely control the spacecraft, then even if Cruise really has a 'hole card' and uses this hand to escape, the reindeer It is also possible to lock Cruise's position by operating the spacecraft system, trap Cruise with access barriers in the spacecraft, etc.,"
"Of course, there is a second way. Among the five bodies that have been found, we deliberately left one body not to destroy... such as the old man's body."
"If we do this, after Cruise runs out of the marginal world, there is a chance that his soul will wake up on the body we reserved in advance. This will make it easier for us to control him—wounded or disabled is fine, Anyway, the body is immortal, so he can't go to the second body, can he?"
Mnuchin said: "These two methods are best to be used together, because the second method is not safe enough and the probability is uncertain. If Cruise keeps more than one 'hole card', then the effect of the second method will be very limited. gone."
"The key still depends on the ability of that reindeer." Mu Xing roughly understood Mu Qin's thoughts when he heard it, "and how long Zhou Yue can delay."
"So we have to think of other ways to delay Zhou Yue's time and confuse Cruise's sight." Mu Qin has a clever trick, "Remember Jin? Zhou Yue gave him special authority to liberate the border world. Those players sitting on the throne."
Thinking of the ability of the Butterfly Throne and the status of the kings of the players, Mu Xing seemed to understand something, and guessed: "Could you be thinking..."
"The king can possess others, as long as the spirit is strong enough, some master players in the marginal world can also be possessed by them." Mu Qin squinted his eyes, looked at Xiao Xingxing, and said with a smile: "This setting is actually quite good. , you designed it... should I say it was prescient?"
"You even said that it was pointless for me to design something like a throne!" Mu Xing began to complain.
"Then it seems that I have to take this sentence back." Mu Qin continued to smile with his eyes narrowed.
…
Cruise was growing restless.
He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell exactly what was wrong.
Although Zhou Yue stayed in the same safe house with him all the time and didn't go anywhere, Zhou Yue either closed his eyes and meditated, or wandered away, looking like he was never in the state.
Cruise interacted with those players according to Zhou Yue's request, but he really had no interest in the game, and Zhou Yue only asked Cruise to participate in the game, and did not require Cruise to win or lose the game. Get some grades or something.
This also led to Cruise being able to play the game perfunctorily, just writing or voice chatting with those human players on the blackboard, and there was no problem with visiting each other without meeting each other at all. Zhou Yue never raised too many objections to his game method.
But it was Zhou Yue's relaxed and laissez-faire attitude that made Cruise feel uncomfortable. He felt that Zhou Yue just wanted him to stay in the marginal world, in this closed safe house, and waste his time .
Of course, Cruise didn't come to waste time. Apart from catering to Zhou Yue's proposal of "playing games", Cruise also wanted to search the inside of the fringe world carefully—yes, he was indeed searching for traces of reindeer.
Did Cruise, who was indirectly "sealed" by him, stay in the fringe world and hide in the fringe world
Because Mu Xing was in power in the fringe world for those years, he completely changed the way the dream world operates, and added many strange settings to the fringe world, and Cruise has been busy with experiments for three hundred years and has no time to control him. .
Therefore, the current system, environment and game form of the marginal world have added a lot of difficulty to Cruise's search work.
While pretending to chat with the players, he used the prepared code program to repeatedly scan the entire marginal world. After scanning for a long time, he couldn't find the huge existence of the reindeer that gathered hundreds of billions of souls.
It stands to reason that such a huge soul group as the reindeer should have nothing to hide under Cruise's scanning program!
But after scanning for a long time, Cruise finally found that the largest source of spiritual power in the entire marginal world was by his side—as if it was intentional, Zhou Yue's strong spiritual stance has been highlighting the sense of existence.
But how is this possible? Cruise thought.
The "Net of Disorder" that has integrated so many souls can never disappear out of thin air, and Cruise has already set up the monitoring program many years ago. As long as the reindeer moves or runs out of the marginal world, Cruise will Si will receive the system report immediately, and he has been waiting for this day.
Cruise's waiting is destined to be unrewarded. Three hundred years have passed, and the reindeer still has no movement, and the monitoring system seems to be in vain.
Has that person really disappeared? Considering the time difference between the edge and reality, Cruise couldn't sit still, so he agreed to Zhou Yue's request so that he could search the edge world in person.
The search results undoubtedly made Cruise even more headache, he found nothing!
impossible! That guy must be hiding somewhere, I must find him!
Cruise gritted his teeth thinking about this question, while quietly observing Zhou Yue without a trace.
To be honest, Zhou Yue is very confusing to Cruise. Zhou Yue's behavior is weird and his thinking is extreme. Moreover, Cruise also vaguely noticed that Zhou Yue was delaying his time, but why did Zhou Yue do this
Wait, so... is Zhou Yue just a bait? A bait to delay his time
Once this idea germinated in Cruise's mind, it began to grow into a towering tree.
The more Cruise thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. Indeed, the timing of Zhou Yue's appearance was too coincidental!
Just when Cruise wanted to use Muchen to control the stalls of the marginal world, Zhou Yue suddenly jumped out and killed Muchen, perfectly interrupting his plan.
And he has been showing his strong mental strength in front of Cruise... Zhou Yue's every aspect is so in line with Cruise's highest standards for "experimental subjects", that as soon as Zhou Yue appeared, he was immediately attracted to him. All of Cruise's thoughts made Cruise completely forget his original plan.
Cruise knew that he couldn't take it lightly. The guy in the adult group had been locked in the fringe world for many years, and he would definitely not let it go. Maybe he had extended his influence in the fringe world a long time ago. Zhou Yue The guy is also most likely just a pawn for him.
