Infinite Mask Game

Chapter 74 Between Life and Death

Xia Ziwan couldn't control her body, even if she had all kinds of methods, she couldn't use them at this moment.

The most urgent task is to find the reason. Her condition is very similar to that of a ghost, but neither of them saw any abnormality. For Wei Miao, the ghost should control her through some kind of medium.

Suddenly, a soft blue light shines from Xia Ziwan's hand, sweeping across the entire room in an instant.

This is Xia Ziwan's ability.Although her body is controlled, she can use her skills as if she were instinctive. She doesn't need a possession or pre-action, and there are no cutscenes or stiffness.

Afterwards, Chai Yun could see that her whole body was covered with a gray-black aura without relying on her sly eyes, and two thin lines of sly aura extended from her body to the large mirrors on both sides.

The bathroom has double sinks, so the large mirrors cover most of the walls one after the other.

As if sensing their gazes, Xia Ziwan's figure in the mirrors on both sides evoked a frightening smile.

Obviously Xia Ziwan's standing posture has a certain sideways angle, but the figures in the mirrors on both sides are facing them, they look exactly the same, and slowly raise their arms, corresponding to Xia Ziwan's movements.

The figure of Chai Yun was slowly turning around in the mirror, and it was still some time before he was facing her.

The "Chai Yun" in the front and rear mirrors is not consistent at this moment, one is about to be completed, and the other has just turned halfway from the back.

By comparison, Wei Miao basically understood the operating mechanism of this ghost.Taking a certain point of time as the freeze-frame moment, the figures in the mirror will turn away from reality and slowly turn. When the mirrors on both sides are positive figures, the mirror images will in turn control the original owners and manipulate them to commit suicide.

So, what is the solution?
Compared to Chai Yun with a calm face, Xia Ziwan looked very anxious: "Quickly think of a way! I can't move now, try to smash the mirror, maybe I can be saved!"

"What if you are torn apart after breaking the mirror?" Chai Yun looked at the two strings connected to her body. How to get a marionette out of control? Isn't the most obvious answer just to cut the puppet's strings?
Redblade should be able to do it.

But Chai Yun did not mention this, but said: "Didn't you notice? When you stare at one of the mirrors, the movement of the person in the mirror will stagnate."

"Ah?" Xia Ziwan heard what she said, and when she observed carefully, she finally discovered this detail that she had overlooked in her panic.

But she found that even though she was staring at a mirror, her hand kept approaching her neck: "It doesn't work!"

Previously, Wei Miao thought that Xia Ziwan's fear of ghosts was self-effacing, but now she knows that she is not exaggerating, at least at the moment her thinking ability and judgment have declined like a normal player.

She curled her lips and said, "A mirror has two sides. You only stare at one side, and the person in the mirror on the other side is still moving. Of course it doesn't work."

Xia Ziwan was stunned: "But... I only have one pair of eyes."

But I have three.

Chai Yun was facing one of the mirrors, with strange eyes poking out from the back of his neck, staring at the mirror behind him.

Chai Yun's person in the mirror originally had the corners of her lips curled up, as if she was evil and proud, but now, the smile on her face is slowly disappearing, and her eyes are dead.

"It's not realistic for you to look at two mirrors alternately in your current posture." Chai Yun looked at Xia Ziwan thoughtfully, and took a few steps aside.

The position of the person in the mirror has actually changed, following her movement, like a horizontal plane game character moving.

Afterwards, Chai Yun lifted Xia Ziwan slightly off the ground, helped her turn around, and moved to the left by the way.

Chai Yun observed Xia Ziwan's person in the mirror while moving, but her position did not change.

"It's equivalent to you being locked."

After Xia Ziwan tried her best to calm down, she was able to understand what Chai Yun said. What she meant was that even if Chai Yun carried her out, her connection with the ghost would still not be severed.

This time, Chai Yun walked straight out of the toilet. He turned around and went back as soon as he left the door, looking in the mirror.

Her weird person in the mirror disappeared, and the mirror image returned to normal, but the more she looked at it, the more evil she felt, and the ghost in the mirror was about to move.

Chai Yun, who has not yet formed a relationship, can get out of control by going out of the toilet, but Xia Ziwan, who has established a relationship, is under its control all over the world.

"Is there anything you can do?" Xia Ziwan looked hopeful, but her eyes twitched wildly, looking at the two mirrors alternately, "I can't last long in this state, my eyeballs are about to pop out."

In Xia Ziwan's perception, the person who can kill a ghost in a short time is not to mention a boss, at least he is much better than her.

Chai Yun glanced at the way she was shaking her eyes, feeling inexplicably happy, although she knew it was immoral to laugh at this moment.

"There is another way to get you out of the sea of ​​suffering."

"any solution?"

"Give up struggling and quit the game."

"Please, boss, is this the time to joke?!" Xia Ziwan was a little annoyed.

"Then there is actually another way, but I want to ask you a question first, does anyone else know that you are a player?"

"No, everyone doesn't want to reveal their identities, but you posted a post, and I just want to get in touch."

"That's it." Chai Yun looked serious, "But why should I save you?"

"Ah?!" Xia Ziwan was shocked by her soul torture, she said "ah" more times today than she said in the past year.

She frowned and choked out a sentence: "Why didn't you save me?"

Chai Yun spread his hands: "Do you know what a fun player is?"

When ordinary people encounter such a situation, there is a high probability that they will rack their brains to save others. This is the inertia of thinking under the influence of social morality.The morality representing "justice" conforms to the interests of most people, so it can become morality.

When everyone is in trouble, they always hope that someone will lend a helping hand.

Wei Miao is different, her brain circuit is very clear, and she asks herself first: Is she familiar with herself?Is there any benefit in saving her?Is there any effect if I don't save her?

Then, after weighing it up, she found that Xia Ziwan's life was nothing more than selling the other party's favor and getting closer to her, but from a standpoint, the Spirit Removal Club was her enemy.

Players have always had a flexible moral bottom line, and human feelings cannot be trusted.

And Xia Ziwan's death had no negative impact on her.First of all, no one knows that she is a player, she is just an unlucky ghost in the eyes of the public.Secondly, the surveillance saw the two of them going in and out, but if she didn't intervene in the whole process, Xia Ziwan's death would only be considered a ghost killing, and she could get herself out as long as she insisted that she fainted in the toilet.In the end, she lost a faction opponent.

And the death of this "hidden player" may be beneficial to future actions.

Speaking of this... In fact, she seems to have a third way between life and death.

Wei Miao suddenly realized, and had some new ideas.
