Doomsday Wonderland

When I looked at the Lowes Clothing Store from a distance again, its door was open, as if it was inviting passers-by to walk in. Even the afternoon sun couldn't illuminate the faint, silent darkness behind the door. I don’t know if the old smoker finally calmed down or if he didn’t notice Lin Sanjiu, who was two blocks away from the store; this time, she finally left the block where Bonnie Rabbit was without a trace. It didn't make much noise - the old smoker's gaze still lingered on his back, sticky and lingering.

After being surprised at first, Lin Sanjiu thought about it carefully and became optimistic.

Although Lao Ci's sweater and necklace attack had bad intentions, it was not difficult to prevent; he was more irritating than dangerous. Since he was able to escape from Bonnie Rabbit and successfully protect himself until now, maybe it means that Bonnie Rabbit is actually not comparable to the Puppet Master? After all, rumors cannot be trusted at all.

If nothing else, if the old smoker can protect himself, then Kurosawa Ji will definitely have no problem.

Thinking of this, she turned her head and glanced at Yaojiang from the corner of her eye; he was following her closely at the moment. She took one step and Yaojiang took one step. Although she knew there was no problem, every step still only landed on the ground that Lin Sanjiu had stepped on. place. No matter where he goes, he can never forget the mop in his hand, just like a monk holding a staff.

There is no doubt that this young man originally did not want to go with her. The amount of information in this game is huge and complicated, and no one would be able to tell it all in the first time; so even after hearing his introduction, Lin Sanjiu still asked the two of them to go together, both softly and hard-- This way she can better benefit from Crow River's experience.

In exchange, Lin Sanjiu agreed to act like a goose for him: She would test out the places that Yajiang had never walked or touched for him first - if he couldn't find Kurosawa Ji, then he could go to the hospital first.

"There is no problem with this kind of ground," Yajiang said, leaning his neck and looking over her shoulder: "Because I stepped on the brick ground when I registered, which means it is safe. But you have to be careful about those weeds now. "

"Won't the ground you stepped on when registering turn into lava?" Lin Sanjiu asked as he stopped outside the weeds.

They were standing on the sidewalk of a large commercial street. In the distance was a small circular square, surrounded by various buildings in the center. The buildings that were once brightly lit at night are now gloomy and silent in the daytime; the decorative green plants and flowers seem to have absorbed nutrients from the dead society, and are spreading and expanding with great interest, and the green vines are like veins. The parade passed through the gaps between the bricks, and the entire small square was half-hidden and half-hidden in the weeds.

"That's a nice thought."

Yajiang sneered, "I don't know how the location of the lava was decided... Anyway, the results are quite insidious. Do you know? That kind of simple surface only paved with cement has become a lava at least twice. If you had been there a second ago, You happen to be crossing a driveway and the next second you're lying on a hospital bed with your leg amputated to your belly button."

The water in the internal organs fell out of Lin Sanjiu's imagination with a "splat".

"You've never been to the hospital." She muttered in a low voice and carefully stepped on the light red square bricks.

After the two set off, they walked all the way and checked the "safe areas" they encountered along the way. So far, most man-made objects, such as rectangular rooms, doors and windows, do not have lava behind them; and after the start of this round, this is the first time the two of them have encountered plants.

"Wait a minute, there is a bookstore there." Yajiang called her in a low voice, "Wherever there is text, player messages are more likely to appear. We don't know how many people are in this area yet. Let's go and take a look first. ."

She kept wearing metal gloves on her hands, walked up and punched several times and broke the locked glass door. Amidst the crisp and explosive sound, Gossanjiu looked at the brown carpet covered with broken glass, stepped in, and said, "I still don't understand the location of this lava."

Seeing that Yaojiang remained silent, she continued to ask: "The first time I saw lava, it was in a ring. I originally thought that the ring represented the crater, but now I know that it turns out to be the same as the crater. It doesn’t matter. As long as it can accommodate it, there may be lava anywhere?”

"Don't you know a lot about this?"

"No, no, what I mean is," Lin Sanjiu's feet creaked a few steps. She stopped, pointed to a piece of ground and asked, "Is it possible that the location of lava is on a carpet dotted with foreign objects?" Such...such a detailed and specific place? Or rather, "

She walked to a round table used to display new books, picked up a book and turned a few pages: "Is it possible for lava to be caught in the pages of the book?"

"That's right." Yaojiang stood outside the door and shrugged, "Weird places are possible than this... Only you can't think of it, there are no places that this game can't think of. But such strange places are very rare, after all, you want to , if Lava is caught in the pages of the book, then I’m afraid not many evolvers can be swallowed throughout the year.”

...In other words, it is impossible to prevent it.

Lin Sanjiu put down the book, followed Yajiang's request, walked around the escalator steps, put his hand into the gap of the bookshelf, shook it, and touched a hanging light tube... See Goose was still alive and well, so he walked into the bookstore and looked around for player information.

"It's strange," he said to Lin Sanjiu without looking back while searching, "We have been out of the registration point for twenty or thirty minutes, and we have walked through a lot of places, but it is so safe everywhere."

"Why do you sound like this is a bad thing?"

"It's not good from a certain point of view," he tied the mop behind his back and threw all the substandard things on the ground, including many maps that Lin Sanjiu had never found; she thought. After thinking about it, I picked up one.

"You'll know if you think about it carefully. The more things we encounter, the less we can remember exactly what they are. What's more, people will inevitably become more and more careless, and Lava is best at swallowing it when you relax your vigilance. Drop it—ah, there it is!”

There were so many books, including biographies, photo albums, and novels, but none of them contained player information. Instead, it appeared on the bookstore staff's sign-in sheet.

"Within 30 blocks nearby, the number of registered players is 5, and the illegal population is 2." In addition to this sentence, there is also a rough block range as a reference on the cover page - perhaps because the range is larger this time.

The two quickly circled the corresponding 30 blocks on the map; when they turned to the first page, they found that the player information was squeezed together with the employee signature area.

"Player 1, Crow River. Male. Survivor in the first 3 rounds. Currently in the 4th round. The probability of survival is medium to high."

"Player 2, Lin Sanjiu. Female, novice player. Currently in his first round, the chance of survival is extremely high."

"Player 3, Kurosawa Ji. Male. Survivor in the first round. He is currently in his second round. The chance of survival is extremely low."

"He's still here!" Lin Sanjiu immediately became happy, pointing to the line of small words and said, "Fortunately he's not dead yet!"

"You're too happy too early," Yaojiang looked at him expressionlessly, "It's hard to say whether Bonnie Rabbit has targeted him, but it shows one thing. This person doesn't know where to look at player information. "

Lin Sanjiu was stunned for a moment, then thought about it again and suddenly understood.

If Kurosawa Ji saw her name, there was no reason why he would not come to her and instead run out. He had survived a round, but he didn't expect that he was still so bad at it.

She sighed secretly in her heart and continued to move her gaze downwards.

"Player 4, Yuan Xiangxi. Male. Survivor of the first 71 rounds. Currently in the 72nd round. The chance of survival is currently unknown."

This was the Watermelon Taro in the registration book - Lin Sanjiu had just turned the page, and before he could see the player information on the second page clearly, he turned back again.

Right?

"Surviving players in 71 rounds?" Yajiang almost pressed his face to the page, "Is it really 71? Not 11? Also, why is there no chance of survival yet?"

This news was indeed surprising, but it was not this that made Lin Sanjiu unable to clear his thoughts for a while.

A person who has participated in 71 rounds of lava game, why is he still trying to register a fake name until this round? Shouldn't he have known a long time ago that he couldn't leave a false name?

No matter how hard she thought, she couldn't think of a suitable answer - if he was trying to confuse others, then others would know something was wrong as soon as they saw the player's message; if he wanted to leave a pseudonym for fun, it didn't seem like it. Afraid of wasting time and not being able to catch up with the last player message, she quickly put down her thoughts and opened the second page.

"Player 5, Bonnie Rabbit. Female. Player who survived the first 13 rounds. This is the 14th round now. The survival probability is extremely high."

"How come I didn't know everyone was fucking migrating together?"

Yajiang flicked the page with his fingers a few times, and murmured: "That black one can be said to have been here before us... What happened to Bonnie Rabbit? Has she been following us?"

"look,"

Lin Sanjiu pointed to Bonnie Rabbit's message and called him, "Her survival probability was originally high, but now it is extremely high."

Yajiang paused: "...She has already sent away an illegal population. When the player is in the game, the survival probability will slowly recover, but there is no chance of jumping from high to extremely high all at once."

"Besides, she is either following us or following Kurosawa Ji." Lin Sanjiu whispered.

She had turned on "Pure Touch" several times to scan her surroundings along the way, and she was certain that there was no one near them. UU reading www. uukｎshu． netｔBonnie Rabbit most likely entered this commercial street from another route. Maybe she was following Kurosawa Ji - was it because this was a hard nut to crack, so she followed him to look for opportunities?

"Bonnie Rabbit can send away illegal people, which means she already knows the location of the lava," Yajiang swallowed and said dryly, "She is now in the same area as us..."

Before he could say the rest of his words, Lin Sanjiu rushed out of the bookstore and shouted: "Kurosawa Ji!"

"What are you doing?" Yaojiang was startled, and lowered his voice and said outside the door: "Are you afraid that Bonnie Rabbit can't find us?"

"I'll go out and shout," Lin Sanjiu also lowered her voice and hurriedly replied to him, "She will be led over by me, and you are still safe."

Yaojiang nodded with doubts, grabbed the mop and quickly retreated to a deeper and quieter place in the store, not forgetting to watch her feet carefully to avoid stepping on something she had not touched. When he passed a corner, an arm suddenly stretched out from behind the wall, covered his face and dragged him behind the wall.

Lin Sanjiu was stunned outside the door. Before he could even make a move, the bookstore fell into silence again.
