Global Collapse

Chapter 541 If you don't give me tickets, I'll release intermittent zombies to play games.

Before the fat man could utter the words of praise he had prepared for Gu Mian, Xiao Qiao reached out and snatched the plate, seemingly very interested in it.

The fat man opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Liu Ruyan's sarcastic words: "You're not trying to say that Gu Mian specially asked you to deliver this to us, are you?"

The fat man deflated. He had indeed intended to say that, but Liu Ruyan had immediately exposed him.

Liu Ruyan continued with a smile, "He's not that kind of person. If you said that Gu Mian thought it was a waste to make too much of this and feed it to the dogs, that's why she asked you to give it to us, that would be somewhat believable."

The fat man's words of praise were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't say anything more.

It seems that the task of expanding the doctor's harem is quite arduous.

Liu Ruyan wasn't buying it.

"But thank you anyway," Liu Ruyan said, leaning against the doorframe as she looked at Xiao Qiao, who was staring at the soup dumplings. "She should really like them."

Xiao Qiao does like this.

So much so that when Gu Mian opened the door the next morning, she saw Xiao Qiao, the dog, squatting at the door.

At first glance, you really would think there was a dog squatting at the door.

She only looked up when she heard someone open the door, her eyes full of anticipation.

Gu Mian rubbed her temples, squatted down, and looked at her: "What are you doing here?"

Xiao Qiao learns things very quickly, especially how to speak. She looked up at Gu Mian, her mouth opening and closing: "Is there any leftover food that's a waste to feed the dog?"

Gu Mian was completely baffled, unable to understand what she was saying at all.

The fat man behind him immediately understood: "Crab roe soup dumplings?"

But we finished this yesterday, and making it again is too much trouble.

Finally, Xiao Qiao returned home satisfied with the bowl of pear and white fungus porridge, which Fatty had just made for breakfast.

When Xiao Qiao returned with the steaming porridge, she happened to run into someone pacing in the stairwell, wondering what food would accompany her in the coming year.

Seeing the female celebrity carrying a bowl of porridge down the stairs, she asked curiously, "This is..."

Xiao Qiao stopped and looked at her, then said seriously, "These are the leftovers from Gu Mian and the others; it would be a waste to feed them to the dogs."

Next year, he slightly opened his mouth and watched as Xiao Qiao carried the porridge down the river.

Finally, it disappeared from sight.

That steaming hot and fragrant pear and white fungus porridge didn't look like leftovers that would be a waste to feed to the dog.

Meanwhile, Gu Mian and the other two, who had finished breakfast inside, were already sitting on the sofa in the living room. Fatty was asking Gu Mian curiously, "Speaking of which, time was quite tight after the doctor came back last night, and he didn't even mention the amnesia scenario."

Chu Changge and Fatty both learned from the announcement that the instance Gu Mian entered was called Amnesia.

"Speaking of which, this name is the same as one of the otome games I used to play... Was that dungeon also related to romance?" The fat man, who had played quite a few games, pondered.

It is indeed related to romance.

If Zhao Shuang had stopped dating Sun Zihao, then there wouldn't have been any problems.

but……

"What kind of game is an otome game?" Gu Mian turned to ask Chu Changge, who was standing to the side.

Chu Changge shook his head to indicate that he did not know.

The fat man quickly waved his hand: "Let's not discuss these things first. Let's talk about the amnesia dungeon first."

As he spoke, he looked at Gu Mian and said, "Is the Doctor's instance difficult? I think only you and Miss Coco survived."

Gu Mian shook her head slightly: "It's not difficult, but the dungeon will dig a lot of traps for you. I guess many people will step into the trap as soon as they enter the dungeon."

After shaking his head, he began to describe the amnesia scenario to the fat man.

In the Amnesia instance, if all players do nothing but run away, they will definitely survive.

Once you start looking for clues, you'll step into a carefully crafted illusion within the game.

In the end, if even one person awakens Zhao Shuang's memories, everyone in the entire instance will be doomed.

After Zhao Shuang regained her memories, her fate was basically sealed.

However, thanks to the bug that Gu Mian infiltrated last time, what was supposed to be a certain death situation is no longer a certain death situation.

After listening to Gu Mian's description, the fat man thought to himself, "It seems that the dungeon is very malicious towards players... It's full of tricks and deceptions, determined to trap players... But Doctor, next time you don't need to describe the corpse in such detail."

“I noticed something in that instance,” Gu Mian said, picking up a can of lychee soda, “Sunshine Taxi, you guys remember it, right?”

of course I remember.

The fat man nodded: "It's the taxi dungeon, right? I remember the taxi company in that dungeon is Sunshine Taxi."

He also remembered that there was a perverted driver in that instance.

That driver must have died a very unsettling death.

"I found the same phone booth and the same Sunshine Taxi in the Amnesia instance, so I guess the Amnesia instance and the Taxi instance are in the same world."

Since Gu Mian already knew that some of these instances were located in the same world, she wasn't surprised to see the same company in two instances.

"Later I learned that there was a place called Sweet Manor in the city next to the Amnesia instance. It was the name of a station in the bizarre train escape. You didn't enter that instance."

Chu Changge and the fat man listened attentively from the side.

"However, I later asked the NPC about the names of other locations, including Shichahai and Crazy Game City. The NPC said he had never heard of such places. Of course, I had a phone in the Amnesia instance, and I secretly used it to search for those locations. I found that apart from Sweet Manor, I couldn't find any of the other locations." What does this mean? The fat man pondered seriously.

Gu Mian continued, "Either the Sweet Manor in Amnesia and the Sweet Manor in the Train instance are unrelated and just happen to have the same name; or the Sweet Manor in both instances is indeed the same place. The reason why you can't find any stations other than Sweet Manor in Amnesia is because that train travels between different worlds."

You can't find anything from another world in this world.

If it really were a train that could travel between different worlds.

The fat man was somewhat dazed: "It's a pity that when you entered the train instance, you didn't know about the lower-dimensional world."

Otherwise, you could travel to different worlds via that train.

Unfortunately, Gu Mian ended up smashing the train's cab to pieces, and the train had to be sent back to the factory for repairs. I don't know if it's been repaired yet.

“So now we can at least confirm that the amnesia instance and the taxi instance are in the same world,” Chu Changge pushed up his glasses. “Did you search other instance locations while you were in the amnesia instance?”

Gu Mian nodded: "I've searched all the places I remember, but most of them don't exist, or they just show many places with the same name."

For example, searching for "Café de Coral Supermarket"

The search returned thousands of related results, which were impossible to verify.

"I think if we go into more dungeons in the future, we can find more overlapping locations. Then we can divide the dungeons with overlapping locations into several categories, and each category will be a world."

The fat man, resting his chin on his hand, asked, "Would categorizing the instances into their respective worlds help us understand the ins and outs of this global game?"

Categorizing doesn't guarantee availability, but not categorizing guarantees non-availability.

“By the way, doctor, you said you also saw the new packaging of this lychee soda in the amnesia instance. I guess the other things in the supermarket are also produced in the instance. Why don’t we go and check out the production sites of those things one by one?” Fatty thought he had come up with a good idea.

Gu Mian stroked her chin: "I remember Chu Changge did this before."

At that time, the global game had just started. The three of them went shopping in a supermarket. Gu Mian and Fatty were just selecting items normally, but Chu Changge was investigating the manufacturers of the products. He was truly a great prophet.

Gu Mian thought that if there were a profession called "prophet," Chu Changge could apply for it.

The fat man is the chef.

As for those downstairs...

Coco doesn't seem to have any professions that fit the description.

Liu Ruyan is portrayed as a charming and alluring proprietress, which is somewhat in line with the stereotype of a madam.

As for Xiao Qiao... Valkyrie?

However, this Valkyrie might be a little expressionless.

At this moment, the fat man's voice pulled Gu Mian back to reality: "Then, doctor, next time in the dungeon..."

Gu Mian knew exactly what the fat man was up to; it was nothing more than something like, "The dungeon is so big, I want to go take a look."

"It's best not to," Gu Mian shook her head. "Now, dying in a dungeon means real death. I remember you died twice in a dungeon before, right?"

One was a doctor's profession dungeon killing game, and the other was Werewolf.

Today's players don't strive to become stronger; they just want to survive.

Players who have enough in-game currency usually won't enter dungeons, and those like Fatty who have no worries about food and drink have even less reason to venture into dungeons and risk their lives.

Seeing the concerned expression on Gu Mian's face, the fat man was deeply moved: "The doctor still remembers that I died twice, and I know that you would definitely be heartbroken if I died..."

But before he could finish speaking, he heard Gu Mian's voice: "If you die, no one will cook, and I'll have to eat instant noodles again."

The fat man shut his mouth, silently shedding tears in his heart.

Chu Changge glanced at the humble fat man and said, "The amnesia instance and the taxi instance are in the same world, and both of these instances are very similar to our real world."

It's not a killing game or an extreme worldview like "Old Man and the World," nor is it an isolated variety show like "Crazy Guessing Words" or "Sweet Lovers."

“We only know about two worlds right now: the Second World and the Old Human World,” Chu Changge continued. “As for the other worlds, we haven’t figured them out yet, and we don’t know their worldviews. Based on the current situation, I guess these two instances belong to the Second World.”

Based on the existing clues about the second world, it is indeed the world most similar to the real world.

I just don't understand why some worlds are so bizarre, like the old human world and the killing game.

"Speaking of which, you actually came from the second world." Gu Mian looked at Chu Changge.

A school from the second world descended upon Earth during the college entrance examination, but unexpectedly collapsed halfway through and has not returned since.

That was also the storage place for Chu Changge's failed products from his laboratory.

Gu Mian didn't expect to use Chu Changge to distinguish which instance belonged to the second world. After all, he grew up in a laboratory and had never seen the outside world. The first time he saw the sky was the day the old man from the orphanage led him to Gu Mian.

Consider the Old Human Realm instance and the Killing Game instance. Although both instances have bizarre worldviews, they are clearly not set in the same world.

The world where the Old Human Realm instance is located is called the Old Human Realm, a fact that Gu Mian already knew from Liu Ruyan.

And Liu Ruyan, who came from the perverted world of the old human realm, was indeed perverted enough.

The name of the world to which the killing game instance belongs is still unknown...

Gu Mian looked at Chu Changge: "You said that every lower-dimensional world sends out guardians, so the world where the killing game is located also sent out guardians, right?"

Chu Changge stared at Gu Mian for a few seconds before nodding.

Gu Mian frowned slightly: "Who is it?"

Hi everyone, this intermittent zombie is in my hands. If you don't give me a ticket, I'll let him go play games.
