Chapter 64: Library 10┃ embarked on a path that Mu Qin could not have imagined

Views:

Although the ghost girl said it could be done, she shook her head slightly in the face of Mu Qin's expectations: "Although it can be done, it takes a lot of time, energy and money to prepare, and you also need a companion to do it." help you."

Mu Qin also knew that things couldn't be that simple, but he still wanted to get the answer: "How to do it?"

"First of all, you have to get the king's 'white card', which is the blank tarot card. That card is the key to open the throne map. Without it, you can't enter the throne map. Second, except for the god of death, you You need to prepare two world cards, one is the reversed world for yourself, and the other is the normal world for your companions. Third, besides these, you must also have a reversed lover, the normal lover is a two-way transmission card, the player who holds the lover card can randomly designate a companion to be his "lovers", after the designation, the two parties can teleport to each other's location. The reverse lover only allows the ghost to teleport to the human's location .”

Speaking of this, the ghost girl paused, and continued: "After you have these cards and a companion, you bring Death, Reverse World and Reverse Lover, and your companion only needs to bring a positive world, and then you enter together Throne map. After entering, first establish a "transport relationship" with your companion with the reverse lover, and then ask your companion to stand at the entrance and exit of the throne map and wait for you to kill the king in the past. Next to your companion, jump into the exit and escape with him immediately, so that the throne will not catch you."

She explained the meaning of the ghost girl very clearly. She said: "After the death of the king, the Butterfly Throne will immediately search for any player on the throne map to become the new king. Assuming that the 'heir' designated by the king is on the throne map, Then the throne will attack the 'heir' first. However, no matter what kind of attack, the series of actions of the throne attacking the player and dragging the player to the throne will take time. As long as you react quickly, you can teleport and escape in time after killing the king. I can't catch you."

"As long as the throne can't catch players and the position becomes empty, the throne and the throne map will start to collapse, and everything will disappear...Of course, maybe a few hours later, the butterfly throne will be refreshed again, refreshed in other maps , there will be other players who don't know the truth and sit on it and become brand new puppets of the Butterfly Throne."

After listening to Ghost's words, Mu Qin's face was a little gloomy: "Your method is indeed feasible, but it is extremely difficult to implement... It is almost impossible to do just two world cards. gone."

"That's right, that's why I said it was a time-consuming, labor-intensive and money-consuming method." The ghost girl tilted her head and said, "As far as I know, the probability of world cards being drawn in the game is very, very low, infinitely close to zero. … So to get it, you have to use some other means.”

"Do you have a way to increase the probability?" Mu Qin asked.

"There are two ways. The first is what you are doing now. Use the identity of a ghost to scan the ghost's reward box, and bring some secondary cards that enhance luck to increase the probability of opening the reward box to the reverse world. Although the probability is still not very high, but Compared with other methods, this is already the highest probability. The second is to farm the magician. The magician can be transformed into a world card, but the probability of failure is also very high. However, I have to tell you that using the magician to spawn the world It is the most efficient way, because the magician card is the only card that can be used in safe houses outside the game. You can buy a large number of magicians from shopping malls or other players, and then try to change them one by one. , until the 'world' is conjured up."

"So that's it." Mu Qin nodded clearly: "Compared to being a ghost every game, killing people, earning points, and opening boxes to gamble on the slim probability, it is indeed more efficient to be a magician... Why was no one before?" How do you do that?"

"Because most players think that the main card can only be used in the game... but the magician is a cunning liar, and he always likes to deceive the world."

The ghost girl's words were quite interesting, and Mu Qin couldn't help but look at her a few more times.

Then Mu Qin curiously asked the ghost: "You know too much. Although you have explained the reasons, I still can't help but wonder..."

The ghost girl laughed, and spread her hands indifferently: "Please feel free to doubt, I am only responsible for telling you what you want to know and what I know."

Mu Qin said: "Well, anyway, thank you very much."

"It's normal for you to doubt me." Phantom suddenly said something inexplicable to Mu Qin, she said: "Mu Qin...the world is not benevolent, and everything is a dog. All the coincidences in this world are inevitable. As a result, and I hope you understand... what I mean by this sentence."

Although the ghost girl said that she hoped that Mu Qin could understand, in fact Mu Qin was only confused by her words. He was puzzled and couldn't help asking the girl for confirmation. He said, "What do you mean? I don't understand." .”

The ghost girl didn't directly answer Mu Qin's doubts anymore. She changed the topic and said, "I think you have other questions you want to get answers from me. Tell me... as long as I can answer them."

The way the ghost girl changed the subject was so clumsy, but Mu Qin followed the trend and asked casually, "Is the marginal world really a place that only the dead can enter?"

"Generally yes," replied the ghost, "except for some special cases, such as if you are locked by the king's 'white card', then you will enter the edge world without dying-but in this case One advantage, as long as your physical body in the real world does not die, then no matter how many times you die in the fringe world, you can 'restart' as always."

"Then is there anyone... He was not locked by the white card, but he still entered the marginal world?" Mu Qin thought of himself at this moment.

The ghost girl thought for a while, and replied: "There is no white card to lock but still enter the marginal world... This kind of situation also exists. Usually, it is something like a 'medium'. There are some items in the real world, especially antiques and the like. There will be some weird magnetic fields left on them, and ordinary people who are frequently exposed to this kind of magnetic fields will enter the marginal world in their dreams when they sleep at night."

"But they only vaguely glimpsed a corner of the border world in their dreams, watching the life and death struggles of players in the border world from the perspective of bystanders. play a game of killing."

Mu Qin understood a little bit, but this kind of understanding also made him feel a little panic-like. He took a deep breath to ease his tense nerves, and said to the ghost: "If there is a person... he didn't die, but There is no white card, let alone this so-called medium, is it possible for him to enter the fringe world to play games?"

"It's impossible. Except for the locking effect of the white card, the marginal world will never accept the survivors." The ghost girl searched the information stored in her mind, and replied firmly, "If the marginal world accepts you, then You are definitely a dead man, without a doubt."

These words made Mu Qin couldn't help but began to self-examine, he thought to himself: Is it possible that I am really dead

No, I am not dead.

The doubt about his own death just hovered in Mu Qin's mind for two seconds, and soon Mu Qin resolutely dispelled the doubt... Unknown, Mu Qin just believed that he was not dead, and he even felt that he would never die. Will not die... Even when he entered the marginal world for the first time and entered the orphanage map, he obviously had the memory of death in a car accident in his mind, but Mu Qin always had a certain degree of doubt about that memory. He subconsciously thought that He was not dead, and this weird confidence made Mu Qin quite confused.

"If you are asking yourself this question..." After Mu Qin was thinking, the ghost girl seemed to realize the reason why Mu Qin raised these questions, so she added, "That means you are not dead and have no white card , there is no medium, but you enter the fringe world, and you don't understand why, so you ask me, am I right?"

Mu Qin didn't disregard the girl's words, and he fell silent, which meant he acquiesced.

"If this kind of situation really happens, I can actually give you another explanation." The ghost girl seemed to consider it for a while, and finally sighed helplessly, "It's just that this explanation is very... cruel to you."

Mu Qin asked her: "What explanation?"

The ghost girl hesitated for a long time before answering: "All the players in the marginal world are dead in the real world. If you are sure that you are not dead, locked by a white card or contacted with any similar media, but you still enter this world, There is only one possible explanation for what happened to you, and that is...you were born on the edge of the world."

"You're joking." Mu Qin felt that this statement was simply a fantasy, but inexplicably set off a storm in his heart.

The ghost girl was very determined: "I'm not joking, there is only this possibility."

Mu Qin stretched out his hand to hold his forehead, he felt his head hurt, all kinds of chaotic thoughts were spinning in his mind, he couldn't help but began to recall his childhood, he didn't know who his parents were, and he was born in Where, after three years in an orphanage, and the "ghost mother" who once thought it was a hallucination.

Everything is so weird, as unreal as being in a nightmare.

"If I was really born in the fringe world, how was I born?" Mu Qin kept taking deep breaths to keep himself calm.

The ghost girl turned around in front of Mu Qin, swung up her clothes, and said, "How do you think I was born?"

Mu Qin found it ridiculous: "Could it be possible that I, like you, was a product of the so-called will of the world? If so... Then I should be trapped in a certain map like you, and be wiped out with the map. How could I run into the real world and grow up like an ordinary person."

The ghost girl shook her head: "Then I don't know. I'm just giving you an explanation. As for the truth, you have to find it yourself."

After that, Mu Qin didn't talk to the ghost girl about the deep-seated topics of the fringe world, because the ghost girl reminded Mu Qin that if he chatted with her for too long, he might be noticed by the will of the world, and the will of the world is not so Leisurely monitors the movement of players in each map all the time, but occasionally patrols. If the will of the world finds out that she chatted with Mu Qin and told Mu Qin a lot of information that should not be said, it may immediately erase Mu Qin's memory.

So Mu Qin could only say goodbye to the ghost girl. He took the notebook he got from the ghost and went downstairs to find Chu Xin.

Chu Xin was obedient, she was sitting on a chair in the hall on the first floor, reading a book with relish, and she didn't notice when Mu Qin walked slowly to her side. Then Mu Qin silently reached out and touched Chu Xin's head. The sudden contact made Chu Xin tremble with fright. She jumped up from the chair and stared at Mu Qin with big beautiful eyes.

Seeing that it was Mu Qin, Chu Xin seemed to relax a little, and asked softly, "Is it resolved?"

"It's solved." Mu Qin replied casually, took out the "novel" of the ghost girl from his pocket, looked at Chu Xin, and suddenly asked, "Do you like reading?"

Chu Xin immediately smiled brightly and became happier than ever before. She felt that if she had a tail, she would be able to raise her head high. She nodded excitedly: "I like it. I used to like going to this library to read books the most. I can read books in this library for a while." Just wait for a day!"

Mu Qin stuffed the "Scarlet Novel" into Chu Xin's arms, and said to her gently, "Since you have rich experience, let's read this."

"What is this?" Chu Xin wondered about the notebook wrapped in blue book cover in his hand, opened it and read two lines, and asked Mu Qin uncertainly, "This looks like a novel?"

"It's just a novel. Let's see how it's written." Mu Qin paused for a moment before saying, "You read it here first, and I'll go do something else."

Although she didn't understand why Mu Qin asked her to read such a novel, the well-behaved Chu Xin didn't ask any more questions, and sat down on the chair to read again, holding the blue notebook.

This thin notebook can't write many words, and Chu Xin reads very fast. After Mu Qin fiddled with it, he found an old iron bucket, and then brought a large number of books to use as fuel. When she started burning the book with a lighter, Chu Xin had already read most of it.

Mu Qin tore off the pages of a book and threw it into a burning iron bucket. After waiting for a while, he looked back at Chu Xin and asked loudly, "Have you finished reading it?"

"It's over." Chu Xin flipped through the last few pages, nodded, got up and walked to Mu Qin's side.

Mu Qin asked, "What kind of story is it?"

"Hmm... It's a beautiful story of pure love. It's about high school students falling in love. The boy's family has money and background, while the girl is a Cinderella. One day they fell in love. Although there were twists and turns, they were still together in the end." Chu Xin finished speaking, I still feel a little puzzled, "Why did you show me this? Although the plot is simple and clichéd...but it's still pretty good."

"Because I don't want myself to be the author's first and last reader." Mu Qin also laughed, and then took the notebook back from Chu Xin's hand. He opened the cover of the book and found the key hidden in the notebook. Throw the book cover and notebook into the burning iron barrel.

"Ah!" Seeing that Mu Qin had thrown away the notebook and burned it, Chu Xin said with a little regret, "It's a very good story...why did you burn it..."

"You like it very much?" Mu Qin asked her.

Chu Xin nodded earnestly: "I like it. Although the author's stories are clichéd, they are vivid, and the handwriting is also very beautiful... If I can study hard, I may be able to write stories like hers and write like hers."

Mu Qin said: "You can write and read, anyway, it's not too late now."

"I'm already in this world, isn't it too late?" Chu Xin didn't seem to have much confidence in herself.

Mu Qin comforted her softly: "No matter when and where, it's never too late."

After that, Mu Qin gave the key to Chu Xin, and took Chu Xin to open the hidden exit in the basement. This was the first time Mu Qin discovered the hidden exit in the game.

In the process of searching, Mu Qin gradually realized that the hidden exits in each map may be related to some plots in the map.

For example, the key to the hidden exit of the library this time is linked to the scarlet novel written by the ghost girl. Players must find a way to find this novel before they can get the key to open the hidden exit.

The key to the front or back door of the library, you can always find it if you search through the entire library. But the key to the hidden exit must be the first to get clues about the haunting on the second floor. If Mu Qin hadn't read the report about the haunted library in the newspaper, maybe he wouldn't have triggered the supernatural phenomenon of "books suddenly falling by themselves" on the second floor, and he wouldn't have smashed the wall and looked for the ghost hidden in the wall. Fiction.

But the cautious Mu Qin read the newspaper. His investigative and analytical skills were as strong as ever, always bringing unexpected surprises to himself.

Before finding the hidden exit and sending Chu Xin away, Mu Qin told Chu Xin the rules of the game and some information about the fringe world in detail. thing.

At the end, he said to Chu heartily: "In the future, you have to rely on your own efforts to survive. In the next game, you will not be so lucky to meet me or someone like me again, so you must Learn to protect yourself."

Mu Qin's earnest words made Chu Xin more cautious. She nodded her thanks to Mu Qin, and after saying goodbye, she prepared to step into the hidden exit and leave.

The hidden exit of the basement is a door that is pitch-black when opened. You can vaguely see a long corridor in the darkness. Occasionally, there is a whistling wind from this pitch-black passage, and you can also feel a gust of wind. The cold wind blew on the faces of Mu Qin and Chu Xin.

Mu Qin handed Chu Xin a flashlight that he found everywhere in his hand, and told her to enter the dark passage for a try. If it was indeed a hidden exit, then Chu Xin would be teleported back the moment he entered. The safe house turned into a spot of light and disappeared before Mu Qin's eyes.

Just before Chu Xin was about to step into the hidden exit, she seemed to think of something, turned her head to look at Mu Qin, and said to him, "After I go out, can I still contact you?"

"Contact me?" Mu Qin hesitated for a moment, "Yes, you can leave me a message on the 'blackboard', just write my name, if I can see it, I will contact you."

With Mu Qin's permission, Chu Xin was very happy. She said to Mu Qin very sincerely: "Thank you, Mu Qin, you are the best person I have ever met in my life."

Mu Qin was very helpless when he heard the words: "Am I being issued a good person card?"

Chu Xin didn't speak, just laughed, and then she left, stepped into the dark corridor, and as Mu Qin expected, she turned into a spot of light and disappeared.

Maybe this seemingly soft but quite strong girl will embark on a path that Mu Qin can't imagine.

But this is no longer something Mnuchin can guess and intervene in.

"Mu Qin! You're awake!" When Mu Qin opened his eyes, he saw Xu Haoyu's magnified face, which was very close, almost nose to nose with Mu Qin.

Mu Qin was so frightened by his face that he suddenly shuddered, and then reached out his hand to hold Xu Haoyu's face angrily, pinched his cheek, and moved his face away.

Xu Haoyu was a little hurt by Mu Qin's hand, and kept begging for mercy: "Oh, please be gentle, ouch, it hurts!"

Mu Qin let go, and Xu Haoyu sat on the edge of the hospital bed and rubbed his face aggrievedly, complaining: "I have been guarding you for two days without sleep, and you treat me like this when you wake up! You still person!?"

Mu Qin looked at his rosy face and sneered to express his disbelief: "Look at your rosy complexion and full of energy. You say you have guarded for two days? That is absolutely unbelievable."

Xu Haoyu, who was exposed to the lie, laughed a few times, and then said to Mu Qin: "Although I don't sleep around, I come to see you every day."

"Thank you, Xu Haoyu." Mu Qin's words were very sincere.

Xu Haoyu blushed even more after being thanked, and said a little embarrassedly: "Actually, the person who watches over you nonstop is my sister..."

"Then I have to thank your sister well." Mu Qin said.

After a while, Mu Qin asked Xu Haoyu: "Did I sleep for two days?"

Xu Haoyu replied: "Yes... It's really strange. After checking and checking, you just have a fracture and a slight concussion. You can't sleep for two days. You can't wake up no matter how much you scream. I'm really worried."

"Where's Zhou Yue?" Mu Qin looked around and found that Zhou Yue was not in sight.

Xu Haoyu said with jealousy when he heard the words: "As soon as you woke up, Zhou Yue Zhou Yue yelled... But it's also very strange, he also fell into a coma for two days for no reason like you, and he hasn't woken up yet. Now he is pushed into the bathroom by the nurse to clean up After two days, people should wash and scrub, right?"

As he said that, a nurse just happened to push Zhou Yue in a wheelchair out of the bathroom of the ward, and put Zhou Yue back on the bed in a well-trained manner.

Mu Qin sat on his hospital bed and looked at Zhou Yue for a while, then said to Xu Haoyu, "I'm sorry to trouble you."

"No, no, no trouble at all!" Xu Haoyu waved his hand to Mu Qin, and then leaned into Mu Qin's ear and said, "Zhou Yue's mother is really rich this week, she paid my sister a large amount in advance , I want my sister to invite the best nurses in the hospital to take good care of you two, no... my sister treats you two like treasures!"

After hearing this, Mu Qin was a little dumbfounded.
