Escape from the Madhouse [Unlimited]

Chapter 184

There is still half an hour until the end of the game.

It was nearing midnight, but the sky was perpetually gray, with no visible change at all.

Zhou Qian has been very busy for half an hour. He is constantly speculating, rehearsing, and formulating strategies for the new routines that outside killers may have. He Xiaowei, Yindao disciples and others quickly spread the word.

And this time in the king game, it was Yun Xiangrong's turn.

Yun Xiangrong didn't look at anyone on Zhou Qian's side, but only listened to Renyi's instructions on matters to be taken care of when it was most critical.

Yun Xiangrong did not tell him that he had already listened to Gao Shan's instructions many times.

But when she turned to leave, she felt Renyi's hesitation to speak.

Probably Renyi was wondering, she was in Shan Sheng's hands, why Shan Sheng and many of his subordinates had gone to Zhou Qian's side, but she hadn't.

He knew this situation in his heart, but Yun Xiangrong didn't have time to explain it with Renyi.

In addition, she has the same opinion as Zhou Qian, Renyi is a very nice person.It's just because of his personality, he is a bit foolish and loyal, and he is not flexible. Once he joins a certain legion, he will never betray him.

A person like him needs another push before he can be truly used by Zhou Qian.

But if he was allowed to stay temporarily... Yun Xiangrong felt that it would be equally beneficial to her and Zhou Qian.

Yun Xiangrong was careful every step of the way in the Taohong Army, and he couldn't get out by any chance.

But if she can turn Renyi into her ally, that is undoubtedly good.

In the past, she was isolated and helpless, but with the addition of a small captain, Renyi, the hole in the Pink Army will become bigger and bigger.It will undoubtedly be much easier to attack from the outside after its internal disintegration.

Zhou Qian's side.He glanced at Yun Xiangrong's back, and then shook the divine bone in his hand, feeling that when a certain spirit returned, he was very reluctant.Even after returning home, it was restless, and even the entire god bone was shaking.

Zhou Qian grabbed the bone and shook it, and he couldn't help sighing. "I've never seen such a stubborn girl. You see, I pulled so many people here. She still hasn't come over yet. But brother Shan, don't worry too much. She's fine."

The god bone didn't shake anymore, probably because Gao Shan held back something.

Zhou Qian said thoughtfully: "So sometimes you have to be strong when you are in love. If I were you, I would tie her here. You are too gentle with her."

The divine bones that had been quiet began to move again, as if expressing their protest against Zhou Qian's fallacies.

Zhou Qian took a serious look at Bai Zhou beside him, and asked, "Hey Brother Zhou, are you angry if I tie you up?"

Bai Zhou also answered him very seriously: "You are my trainer now. If I lose control, you can control me at any time."

"That's right." Zhou Qian smiled, "I almost forgot."

Immediately afterwards, Gao Shan struggled to emerge a translucent body from the divine bone, and said solemnly: "Zhou Qian, your thinking is wrong. I will always respect Rongmei."

Zhou Qian: "Yes, I'm quite fallacious. Don't follow me. Brother Shan is really a good person."

Gao Shan: "..."

Zhou Qian: "Actually, I'm joking with you. I want you to relax."

Gao Shan: "...Sorry. I was too excited just now."

Zhou Qian smiled, and looked at Bai Zhou beside him with bright eyes. "Brother Zhou, look, it's fun to be honest."

Bai Zhou shook his head disapprovingly at Zhou Qian.

Zhou Qian looked at Bai Zhou with wide eyes: "?"

Looking at his expression, Bai Zhou smiled lightly, stretched out his hand to stroke his hair as a comfort, then looked at Gao Shan: "Don't be angry with him."

"I..." Gao Shan was taken aback, "Well, I'm not angry. He taught me those strategies and asked me to bring them to Rongmei. I want to thank him."

Bai Zhou looked at Zhou Qian again, and saw him give himself a "Look what I said" look.

So Bai Zhou asked him in his ear: "Then do you feel that I care too much about you?"

Zhou Qian shook his head: "No. You didn't take care of me much."

Bai Zhou: "Yes."

Zhou Qian nodded: "Yes. In fact, sometimes it's fun and exciting to force Play. You just read less books and don't understand anything."

Gao Shan: "..."

Bai Zhou said lightly: "Okay, then you can introduce me some books later, I'll go and have a look. What's the title?"

Zhou Qian: "..."

After all, Yun Xiangrong returned safely.

Time passed, and soon, all players ushered in the moment of 12 midnight.

Everyone took a long breath.

Now as many as 77 people survived, which has far exceeded their imagination.

A bell rang from nowhere, no more, no less, a total of 12 strikes.

Then the sound of the system came——

[Congratulations everyone, the agreement between the system and the spirit of the world is over, you can take everyone away from the site of this collapse, the prison will disappear, and the way home will appear soon, follow the guidance of the arrow, everyone can clear the level! 】

[The rewards will be settled later, congratulations again! 】

When they finally saw these words, almost all the players burst into cheers.Some even couldn't help crying as soon as they hugged the people around them.

In this critical time, people will always forget old and new grudges, and even the gender of the people around them can be ignored.People can only hug those around them, congratulate each other, shed tears together, and even speak incoherently together...

All emotions are their way of expressing joy and celebrating their survival.

Suddenly there was a sound of crying and laughter coexisting in the prison.

Accompanied by these sounds, there were loud noises one after another—the iron pillars surrounding the prison were returning to the ground.

As for the killers outside the prison, they cast extremely unwilling eyes at first, but in the end they had no choice but to turn around and walk towards the other side of the mountain, their backs gradually disappearing before everyone's eyes.

The moment he glanced at the killers, Zhou Qian realized one thing——

The killer didn't disappear.They just failed temporarily.

There is probably an "agreement" between the system and the spirit of the world, which will bring new players to it for the killers to choose from, unless...

Unless the conspiracy of the spirit of the world here fails completely.

At this moment, almost everyone looked at the same place.

As the system said, a huge white arrow appeared there, and the arrow pointed to a position down the mountain. Looking down the mountain, one could faintly see a circle of light.

It looks like a teleportation array, as long as you walk up, you can leave completely.

But Zhou Qian didn't look there.

He looked back at the opposite end - that was the place where he had seen the spirit of the world in five hours.

The miasma in the distance is still looming, it is the space gap between the two worlds.

In the center of the miasma, a crystal door glows faintly, as if waiting for someone to walk towards it.

The moment the cage completely disappeared, Yindao, Yindao's apprentice and others did not leave.They were pointing guns at Ke Yuxiao and Xu Yang, who also pointed guns at them, and the two sides formed a confrontation again.

As for the rest of the people, they couldn't hold back and rushed towards the road pointed by the arrow.

Zhou Qian withdrew his gaze and slowed down everyone's walking speed with one sentence. "Wait, there are still ultimate hidden missions in this dungeon, for example, the conspiracy to completely destroy the spirit of the world. Those who stay with me to fight for the ultimate reward are welcome to stay. The opportunity is rare, and if you don't come, you won't come in vain."

At this point, Zhou Qian didn't make much effort to keep him.In his opinion, the few closest people around him are enough.Sometimes, for some key tasks, it may be disadvantageous to have more people.

Turning around, without looking at the others, Zhou Qian took out a gun and walked towards Ke Yuxiao step by step.At this moment, Ke Yuxiao's expression was a little cloudy, but not too depressed.

From Zhou Qian's point of view, maybe it's because he already knew he was a waste.

But...Ke Yuxiao passed the level easily when he faced the killer several times.When he was by Qi Liuxing's side, he was actually very smart, and he could often see through dungeon traps at a glance, why now...

In addition, what happened to the "seize the house" Gao Shan mentioned?

Many possibilities flashed through Zhou Qian's mind in an instant, but his expression remained silent.

Walking up to Ke Yuxiao, he only said one sentence: "Let's go, I'll show you what the real hidden mission is. Let you die more clearly."

Ke Yuxiao smiled. "What kind of hidden mission? You clearly want to kill me. It's just that you think that I will do whatever I can to kill you... You think I'm crazy, and I will take a few people away before I die. After all, the judgment of this bullet is so high, and I still have a couple of rounds, enough to kill a few people, right?

"Zhou Qian, you want to use the hidden mission to take the bullets from me and kill me, right?"

Just as Zhou Qian expected, Ke Yuxiao's eyes suddenly revealed an expression somewhere between insanity and madness, "Zhou Qian, Zhou Qian, aren't you afraid that your wishful thinking will fail and you will be killed by me instead?"

Zhou Qian smiled and said, "What tricks do you have. I'm looking forward to it."

"Hahaha... Zhou Qian, don't regret it. You must never regret it!"

Ke Yuxiao put away the gun in his hand, put it in the bag, and then took the lead in the direction Zhou Qian went to meet the spirit of the world.

As soon as he left, Xu Yang and his cronies followed immediately.Renyi, his subordinates, and Yun Xiangrong immediately followed.

When Ke Yuxiao said this, it was not because he was blindly arrogant, nor because he was bursting with confidence.

All his plans with the pastor suddenly became extremely clear at this moment——

They just wanted to kill him.

why?

Zhou Qian glanced at his back thoughtfully, and a certain guess in his heart gradually took shape.

His heart sank slightly, but his expression didn't change. He just looked around and counted the number of people.Most people dare not bet and chose to leave.

The one who chose to stay was of course Bai Zhou, followed by He Xiaowei, Yin Dao, Yin Jiujiu, and Yin Dao's three apprentices.

In the end, Meng Bie, Shan Sheng, and six other people who had just joined the Peerless Legion also stayed.

Zhou Qian counted the heads, and there were 15 people in his team.

Leading them, Zhou Qian introduced the situation related to the World Spirit while leading them forward, and finally said: "That's it. However, the World Spirit was the other strongest Trinity back then. One of my guesses, not sure yet.

"After all, in this worldview, elements such as 'God's Will' and 'Prophecy' are very powerful. Can another strongest person really fool 'God's Will' into releasing water? It's hard to say.

"In short, in essence, the two are like a mirrored and interdependent world, just like when the sun shines, there must be shadows. The spirit of the world has said that one of its purposes for doing all this is to It doesn't want to be someone else's shadow."

He Xiaowei immediately opened his mind: "Could it be that after one of the strongest men killed the other back then, there was an obsession in his heart? He has always complained about God's will, thinking that he should have a companion, a companion who depends on each other? So he He has a dark side? Hey, I made up my mind——

"One day the strongest man passed by a lake and saw his own reflection. He felt that it would be great if the reflection could be his companion. Ordinary people just think about it this way. But he is not, he is the world The strongest in the world, with the ability to create the world...

"Maybe he created the second world inadvertently? Maybe he just doesn't want to be so lonely."

The birth of the double world is because God is lonely.He very much has another self in this world.

Zhou Qian smiled, and he looked at He Xiaowei: "Your idea is very interesting. Can God really be lonely?"

He Xiaowei smiled "hehe", "Then I don't know. The main thing is that I haven't been a god. I thought about it, and our oriental mythology system is actually quite divided——

"In some stories, it is said that the gods also have seven emotions and six desires. Don't you think that the seven fairies fell in love with Dong Yong? Going a little further, Fuxi and Nuwa are also married. But I don't understand, why ask the fairy to ask, It seems to ask people to have short-term love? It's very strange."

Yin Dao: "Xiaowei, I found out for the first time that you still have some thoughts."

He Xiaowei:? ? ?

Ren Yindao and He Xiaowei were brainstorming, but Zhou Qian looked at Bai Zhou and asked him through his personal props: "Brother Zhou, are you a god?"

Bai Zhou said: "According to what Shao Chuan said, it should be soon. My body in reality is still one step away."

"Then will you be lonely?"

"When you're not here, yes. When you're here, no."

Zhou Qian smiled, and asked him again: "Will it be like this in the future?"

Bai Zhou looked at him and nodded. "Well, it will be like this in the future."

Zhou Qian narrowed his eyes, his expression became quite serious.Standing on the top of the mountain, he turned his head and looked down the mountain, and could vaguely see the horizon and the sea in the distance.

For some reason, a picture suddenly appeared in his mind——

The dragon is in the sky, and when it wags its tail, it can move mountains and seas, and reverse the stars.Everything in the world, the sun and the moon, are all under its control...

Zhou Qian said: "I don't know if becoming a god will cut off love and have no emotions or desires. But I know a truth. The higher you stand, the farther you see, and the heavier the responsibility, many people who used to care about Things naturally become insignificant. When you are in charge of the survival of a world, is a tiny creature in it really worth your attention?"

Bai Zhou was a little uncertain about what Zhou Qian wanted to say, so he reached out and grabbed his hand.

Zhou Qian smiled at him: "Fortunately, I am your shepherd."

"Yes." Bai Zhou said, "You are my trainer. We will always be together."

"Well. If you dare not care about me, I will manipulate your spirit and make you care about me. But at that time, I don't like you anymore. "

"Zhou Qian?" Bai Zhou's voice suddenly sank.

Zhou Qian said seriously: "What are you in a hurry for? You changed your mind first."

Bai Zhou: "? When will I..."

Glancing at him, Zhou Qian suddenly smiled: "Brother Zhou is also an honest man. Tsk, I'm so ashamed to keep bullying honest people like you."

Bai Zhou's back molars seemed to be clenched. "Zhou Qian—"

Only then did Zhou Qian seriously say: "There is a word in my words that you overlooked - 'tiny creature'. Do you think, if you become a god, will I still be a tiny creature?"

After all, Bai Zhou smiled, a little relieved.

Zhou Qian said: "Two people must make progress together. This principle is suitable for any relationship. Otherwise, if the relationship is unbalanced and unequal, it will not be easy for two people to achieve long-term stability. Besides, I am not a person with that kind of personality.

"The way this game selects and trains people is different. We took two paths, but maybe in the end...we will reach the same goal by different routes."

"Well. Of course we will return together. But Zhou Qian—"

"Ok?"

Bai Zhou squeezed his hand hard. "Some words can't be used as a joke."

Zhou Qian stared at him, pretended to be good, and nodded seriously: "Oh. Got it."

Bai Zhou squeezed his hand again. "Don't say it will happen next time."

"Okay. Next time..." Zhou Qian's finger was pinched, "Not next time."

"Ah That's good."

"But you abused me. I'll write it down."

"...Remember. Waiting for you to settle accounts with me someday."

The two of them chatted one after another along the way, and soon the miasma and that extremely weird door appeared in front of them.

Zhou Qian asked everyone to stop temporarily. Before they could speak, Shan Cheng came over, called them two, then looked at Bai Zhou and said, "I put a treasure chest in your bag."

"Treasure box?" Bai Zhou was a little puzzled.

"Yeah." Shan Sheng took a breath, his expression seemed a little off.

However, his expression quickly returned to normal, and he just said: "It will be the ultimate hidden mission soon. This level of Ben must be very dangerous. Just in case... I will give you this thing. In case I die, you Give the treasure box to Shao Chuan for me. That box can only be opened by him."
