Unlimited Cycles of Death: 35. Despair Paradise (2)
lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Infinite Retracing Death!
Before exploring, Mu Qin glanced down at his clothes. After entering the game, every player will be "forced" to wear uniform clothes, gray like prison uniforms, which is not good-looking but also Not terribly bad. Mu Qin tidyed up his clothes a bit, and then reached out and fumbled in his pocket. He quickly found a card, the home card that all players would get at the beginning of the game.
When his fingers touched this thin card in his pocket, Muqin's mood became tense inexplicably, and his heartbeat accelerated inadvertently. In this game, he got the death card The probability of is one-sixth. This probability is actually not low. He knows that one day he will also become an executioner.
But when Muchin took out the card and looked at it, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Not a death card.
is a "priestess".
A beautiful woman dressed as a priest is painted on the "Priestess" card. She is suspended in the air in a pure white feather coat. Above her head is a full moon hanging in the vast starry sky. An owl. She holds a key entwined with gold thread in one hand, and a pomegranate in the other. The pomegranate is the symbol of Persephone in Greek mythology.
The edge of the card is a delicate pattern, and the bottom of the card is written with a Greek number: "Ⅱ", and the English "priestess".
Muqin turned the card over and looked at the text description on the back of the card. The text description reads this:
The stars are singing, praising the legends of the distant past.
The priestess brings you the purity and harmony of the Holy Grail.
Medical card, this card can treat your injuries.
Seeing the three words "medical card", Muqin knew that it was a good card, but didn't know if it could heal several injuries, whether it has durability and frequency limits.
Muqin put the priestess into her pocket. He looked around for a moment, and began to think about which direction he should go.
This abandoned amusement park can't see the boundary at a glance. Muchin predicts that it is a very huge area, some places are lit, and some places are so dark that you can't see your fingers. Muqin had roads on both sides, front and back, which made Muqin difficult to choose for a while. At this time, he realized that the Fool's card with a high probability of novices was indeed a very good card, which could make People quickly found clues to escape in such a large area.
Mu Qin licked his dry lips, and finally walked towards the bright place. He saw a small semi-circular house in front of him with a faint and faint light, so Mu Qin turned towards The little house passed by, only when Muchin approached the house did he discover that the house turned out to be a haunted house.
This haunted house is a huge but only half skull. The semicircular shape is the upper part of the skull. The two black holes of the skull are the entrance and exit of the haunted house. The light that Muqin saw was also from The light from the eyes of these two black holes.
There are some signs next to the haunted house with posters of the haunted house, the ticket price of the haunted house, and precautions.
Mu Qin approached this sign and carefully observed the poster on the haunted house. The poster usually not only promotes the haunted house, but also indicates the name of the amusement park, so Mu Qin can tell through such a simple sign. The name of this amusement park is: "Desperate Theme Park"
"Desperate Paradise?" Mu Qin couldn't help his desire to complain. He muttered to himself, "Who would dare to come in with such a name for the amusement park? Sooner or later, it will be abandoned and closed."
"No, it has been abandoned." Muqin said and looked up again, looking at the entrance of the haunted house next to the sign. The entrance of the haunted house is the eye socket of the skull, and there is a small chandelier with green light hung on the eye socket. It is this small chandelier that makes the eyes of the skull glow green, and it looks very "horrible".
Muqin stood at the entrance of the haunted house and spied inside. The haunted house is an underground haunted house, because after entering the door, there is a series of stairs leading to the underground. The stairs are covered with dust and unknown black sediment. Below the stairs It was pitch black and Mu Qin had no light in his hand, so he just looked at it and didn't intend to go down.
After that, Mu Qin circled the periphery of this haunted house again. The outside of the haunted house was not very big. Mu Qin did not find anything valuable. He thought he needed to go down to the underground structure of the haunted house to have it. Gained, but does he have a flashlight or other lighting tools in his hand.
Let's go to look elsewhere.
Muqin thought about turning and leaving the haunted house, and he passed to another bright spot.
Another bright spot is the still working carousel. This carousel is built next to a small lake in the paradise. If Muqin wants to pass, he has to walk over a small wooden bridge. When Mu Qin walked on the small wooden bridge, Mu Qin could hear the music from the merry-go-round. It seemed to be the only thing that could bring joy to their "visitors" in this lonely and run-down paradise.
Mu Qin continued to walk in the direction of the carousel. He felt that the light of the carousel and the music would definitely attract the attention of other players, so other players have a high probability of moving towards Gathered with this carousel.
Although there may not only be humans, but also killers, Muchin needs to act collectively with other people at this time, so that he can judge the situation.
The most important thing is that Mu Qin wants to know if Zhou Yue has entered a map with him.
With this purpose, Muqin quickly walked to the carousel, and then he saw two people gathered beside the carousel.
One man and one woman.
This pair of men and women feel close in action, and they seem to be people who know each other. The two of them are standing in front of the merry-go-round whispering to each other. Muqin is a little hesitant whether he should come forward to say hello, but he also He just hesitated for a while, and soon he strode past and walked to the side of the man and woman.
The sound of Mu Qin's footsteps quickly alarmed the men and women. They turned their heads and looked at Mu Qin with curious or suspicious eyes.
Mu Qin is also observing the pair of men and women. Under the colorful lights of the merry-go-round, he can barely see the appearance of the men and women. They look very young. They should be under twenty-five years old. There is student spirit.
The man is neither tall nor short, about 1.7 meters tall, a little shorter than Muqin, and he looks unsatisfactory but he can pass the eye. The female is very beautiful, with fair skin, oval face, double eyelids, pink lips, smooth eyes, and a very smooth black long hair. She is relatively short, probably less than one meter six, but very petite. Pleasant.
The two people should be in a relationship, because Muqin saw their hands clasped tightly.
Just after Mu Qin finished observing the couple, the man of the couple took the initiative to come forward to talk to Mu Qin, and the man said: "Are you...are you a newcomer?"
He made Muqin realize that the other party is not a newcomer, and Muqin said: "No."
Perhaps because he is too young, this guy seems to be bad at talking to people, but he still tries to increase the volume to make him confident. He said, "That's good, I don't want to explain this game-related things to you."
Muqin feels that the other party is not friendly, but it is normal to be defensive and unfriendly when thinking of this extreme situation. And if the couple know each other, they will trust each other when they know each other, they will involuntarily form a small group and exclude everyone outside the group.
However, even though the other party may reject it, Mu Qin still has to talk to others. Mu Qin said: "The music of this carousel is very big and the light is also very conspicuous. I want to wait for the other people in this map later, They will also be attracted by it and gather one after another. In order to escape successfully, we always have to act together, so I hope that we can introduce ourselves to each other in advance."
When Mu Qin said this, the boy was not good at treating Mu Qin coldly. He exchanged glances with his girlfriend next to him. Seeing his girlfriend nodded, the boy turned his head and said to Mu Qin: "Okay, but you introduce yourself first."
Mu Qin smiled and said calmly; "My name is Mu Qin and I am a veteran."
The identity of a veteran seems to be easy to win the favor and trust of others, or it can also produce a deterrent to others, so the boy's cold face suddenly eased a little, and his tone of voice is no longer tit-for-tat. The boy said: " My name is Shi Wen, and I’m...a rich second generation, I’m still in college."
The boy then led the petite girl around him and said, "This is my girlfriend, her name is..."
Without waiting for the boys to finish, the girls took the lead and reported themselves very actively: "My name is Lu Jiayi, and I belong to Shi Wen at the same school."
Lu Jiayi's activity seemed to make her boyfriend Shi Wen a little dissatisfied. She reached out and grabbed Lu Jiayi's hand and pulled her behind her.
Mu Qin squinted his eyes and asked: "How old are you?"
Shi Wen pursed her lips and replied, "I am twenty, and she is nineteen years old."
"So young." Mu Qin said that he is really very young at the age of twenty. In the companies where Mu Qin works in the real world, there are often such young men and women who come to apply for jobs. They are all those universities. Men and women who have just graduated and entered society for the first time, are full of fear but have to bite the bullet. They are fledgling, and almost everyone can smell the tender milk scent.
Mu Qin immediately said: "I am twenty-eight."
Perhaps Mu Qin feels trustworthy. Although the boy named Shi Wen could not completely abandon his vigilance, he still said to Mu Qin: "I want to know if you are a killer? Explain in advance, I and I No girlfriend."
Mu Qin smiled immediately when he heard the words, he stared at Shi Wen and said, "You asked this question so bluntly. Don’t you fear that I’m really a killer and suddenly turn around and kill you both? You know now, There is no one standing here except you and me. As long as I want to do something, neither of you want to run away."
Mu Qin thought that his slightly intimidating remarks would make the two young people panic a little bit, but to his surprise, Shi Wen just smiled a little embarrassedly and said to Mu Qin said: "If you are really a killer...We are standing here defenselessly, you must have done it a long time ago."
"Yes!" Lu Jiayi, the girlfriend next to Shi Wen, also interrupted: "You look very nice, not like a killer... Why don't you doubt whether the killer will be among me and Shi Wen? What?"
"Doubt will not be the reason for me to question and reject you." Mu Qin still maintained a faint smile. He squinted thoughtfully at Lu Jiayi, and said, "Since I've said it all, Why don't we show each other the cards in our hands?"
Shi Wen and Lu Jiayi probably have the same intention. The two looked at each other again, and then Shi Wen said to Mu Qin: "Also, you can know who the killer is by looking at the cards, but let Let’s take a look at yours."
Mu Qin didn't mind the other party being so defensive, so he took out his own tarot card and showed Shi Wen and Lu Jiayi the priestess in his hand, "This is a healing card."
Shi Wen nodded when he saw it, and took out his own card. Mu Qin looked into his hand carefully and found that it was an inverse card.
Reversed...demon.
Perhaps knowing that Mu Qin did not understand this card, Shi Wen explained: "I also got this kind of inverse card for the first time."
Speaking of which, Shi Wen approached Mu Qin with the card, so that the content on the back of the card could be clearly seen by Mu Qin, and then Mu Qin saw the back of the card and wrote:
The devil is the minion of the death god, but it is definitely not the power of the death god.
You can try to master it, if you want to dedicate your delicious soul.
Curse card, the person who holds this card will be more likely to receive damage.
After reading the notes of this card, Mu Qin curiously said to Shi Wen: "You know this is a curse card, why are you holding it?"
Shi Wendao: "If others gather later, and everyone has their own cards, if I don't have one, I will be easily mistaken for a killer."
"And..." Shi Wen glanced down at the tarot card in his hand, "I heard that this kind of inverse card, we'humans' use curse cards, which are not good for us. But if the killer uses it, this kind of inverted card will become a card that is beneficial to the killer. In addition to the killer, only the inverted card can be used. Probably this is what I mean, I read what others said on the wall of the safe house, I haven't really seen it before."
"So it is." Muqin understood what he meant. "The inversion card cannot be obtained by the killer, otherwise it will become his tool...so you can't easily throw it away."
Lu Jiayi suddenly added: "In fact, it would be better to throw it away, such as tying a rock and throwing it into the lake next to it. The water is deep and dark. In this case, the killer will not be able to catch it. , Which avoids the possibility that this card will be used by the killer."
Mu Qin glanced at the petite and lovely girl and laughed: "You are right, it would be better to throw it away."
"Then I will throw it away after showing it to others later." Shi Wen said, putting the card away first.
"By the way, there is also my card, you can take a look." At this time, Lu Jiayi also took out the card in his pocket. Mu Qin took a look and found that the card in her hand was the same as Mu Qin's, and it was also a priestess.
Muqin did not say that looking at cards to identify who is the killer is actually meaningless, because the death card will disguise itself, and when it is exposed to other people’s sight, it can disguise as anything An other main card, but it is just a disguise and has no actual effect. Therefore, if you have to use cards to identify the killer, it is best for the cardholder to personally demonstrate the effect of the card in front of others.
But this is very wasteful, because some cards are consumed at once, such as Xu Fu, who Mu Qin met in the last game. His vehicle license plate is a one-time use and disappears after use. In order to ensure the probability of their survival, most players are not willing to waste their precious cards, just to prove their identity. Therefore, it is not feasible to verify their identity by showing the effects of their cards.
However, the young couple in front of Muqin didn't seem to know this. They seemed to think that as long as they showed others that they were not the death card, they would prove that they were not a killer.
Or, they deliberately showed their cards and deliberately exposed the disguised death card to Muqin's front, making Muqin think that the killer was not one of them, in order to eliminate Muqin's guard.
Of course, regardless of the possibility, Mu Qin didn’t mean to trust them, because in Mu Qin’s view, neither the boy Shi Wen nor his girlfriend Lu Jiayi gave Mu Qin the feeling Especially good.
Especially this named Shi Wen, Mu Qin could see that he had killed someone.
Mu Qin has an extremely keen intuition for murderers...no, it should be said that it is for the kind of "dangerous people", especially those who threaten Mu Qin's own safety. This intuition has helped him many times, such as He could see Cheng Guoxu's identity as a murderer in the first game. For example, he could feel the breath of those who chased Muqin and Zhou Yue from far away in the real world.
For example, now, he can see the gloom and deepness in the eyes of this young man named Shi Wen.
But it’s okay. Muqin never minds other people’s past, especially in such a big environment. In this desperate dark game, caring about other people’s past is a waste of time and energy.
While waiting for other players to gather, Mu Qin did not continue to talk to Shi Wen or Lu Jiayi. He wandered around the entire carousel and wanted to search this place to see if there were any clues he needed. .
The merry-go-round was still moving. Muqin noticed that this large machine was connected to a cable with a thick bowl, and the cable was buried underground. Mu Qin immediately observed and explored these wires. He estimated that there might be a small power plant in this amusement park, which is used to provide temporary power to the entire park. It is precisely because part of this power plant is still in operation, so you can travel. Some of the amusement equipment in the park can still be moved, just like the huge carousel still spinning in front of Muqin's eyes.
……
Mu Qin didn't wait long, and soon others were attracted by the lights and music of the merry-go-round. The first one came was a man who was wearing glasses and looked about forty years old. He had fat head and big ears, a beer belly, and messy hair. Although he was wearing the same gray clothes and gray pants as Muqin and others. But this suit is a bit small for him, and Mu Qin felt that the fat on his body was almost bursting out of the clothes.
He seems to be a newcomer, because when he saw Muqin, Shi Wen and others, his first words were: "Who are you and why are you here?"
Mu Qin originally thought about explaining the current situation to this person, but before Mu Qin uttered even one word, the other party became impatient, and waved at Mu Qin: "This is not your place to come. Place! Get out of me quickly!"
The words of the 40-year-old middle-aged man attracted Mu Qin's attention, and Mu Qin looked down slightly, thinking about it in his heart. Mu Qin tentatively said to the fat-eared middle-aged man: "This place is all abandoned like this, why can't we come?"
"Even if it is abandoned, this is my property! You are trespassing in someone else's territory!" The middle-aged man looked very angry. He reached out and patted the safety fence around the merry-go-round. The rusty iron railing creaked.
At this moment, Shi Wen, who was standing beside him silently, took a step forward and stared at the fat middle-aged man with cold eyes. Shi Wen said: "I recognize you. You are this'despair paradise'. The person in charge of, your name is Rong Yuxi."
This obese middle-aged man named Rong Yuxi glanced at Shi Wen inwardly, frowned and said in disgust: "Who are you, how do you know my name?"
"Of course I know your name." Shi Wen sneered, and he stepped forward and approached Rong Yuxi. Mu Qin noticed that Shi Wen clenched his fists, his whole body tensed, and stared at the fat man in front of him, as a prelude to punching people with his fists at any time. Shi Wen also gritted his teeth and said: "I still know how you died!" /
Rong Yuxi was a little bit afraid of Shi Wen's appearance that he would come forward to beat him at any time, and his fear made Rong Yuxi love a small step back. After a while, Rong Yuxi felt that his retreat made him look very cowardly. Unwilling to do so, he bit his head and raised his head, arrogantly saying to Shi Wen, "I'm afraid you won't make it? I can let you know you too. How did you die!"
The contradiction between the two people suddenly broke out. Mu Qin, who was looking confused next to him, stepped forward to stop the hideous Shi Wen, and said, "Calm down...what the **** is going on? Now! Isn't it the time to fight?
Shi Wen was not easily stopped by Mu Qin, and he still looked like he could not wait to rush to Rong Yuxi with a thousand swords. At this time, Shi Wenjiao’s cute girlfriend came in handy, and Lu Jiayi followed him and stretched out his hand. He held Shi Wen's arm and said: "Shi Wen, let's forget it."
"Forget it!?" Shi Wen immediately turned his head and stared at Lu Jiayi in disbelief, almost yelling: "Do you know what this **** did! He killed you!"
