After straying into the infinite game

The merman seemed to know her.

This is an obvious question, and perhaps the reason why she was able to access the past.But she doesn't have any memory about the mermaid, just like the past she can never remember.

Hao Yun thought of the previous world.

She is a different kind, a different kind stuck between life and death.

Although there are all kinds of myths and legends, Hao Yun has never encountered similar people and things... She is the only alien, she hides in the crowd, she is out of place.

Maybe it's not her world.

She never had a sense of belonging.

She wasn't sure, after all, she hadn't lighted up the lip language skill yet, the light was too dim, and she couldn't judge whether what the person said was consistent with what he guessed... But she felt intuitively that the other party asked This is it.

When the mermaid pointed to her throat, she noticed that the mermaid has no vocal cords.In the middle of her throat was a hole of blood that ran through her slender, white neck and could be seen behind.

It's not that she doesn't want to talk, she has no choice.

The mermaid has lost her voice, and unlike the little mermaid whose voice was traded by the witch, her throat is pierced, and she is dead.

The mermaid swam past the board with a girl who looked exactly the same in her arms.

The girl's elbow seemed to be scratched, and there were one or two sporadic blue light spots in the dark sea water, although they were very faint, they were very conspicuous.

The waves pushed the plank, and Hao Yun was forced to follow the mermaid who turned a blind eye to her.

She suddenly understood that feelings cannot convey information... The mermaid is telling her a story that happened in the past.

Just like the records and dictation, the mermaid rescued the human beings who fell into the water when the ship sank, and dragged her to a deserted archipelago—the mermaid only knew that these creatures need to live on land, and she searched the entire sea for the long Exactly the same girl offers a place to stand.After all, the mermaid still didn't consider what human needs, or she didn't know at all. The girl woke up on a reef.

Hao Yun wanted to touch the fish scale pattern on the drowned girl's body. Unlike Li Ang's mutation, this pattern is very beautiful, like a thin layer of light blue tattoo, and it seems to be glowing.

It's almost like... the mermaid has turned into a human being. The girl and the mermaid are so similar.If it wasn't for the fact that the girl had legs and the mermaid had a fish tail, the mermaid who only looked at the upper body was even more human than the girl.

Hao Yun was sitting next to her. It was the ocean current that pushed her to this island. She tried to touch the girl who was unconscious due to drowning, just like when she had no body. She couldn’t touch the girl at all. , her body passed through.

This is not real, she is still in the copy.

The unconscious girl coughed violently, choked out a few saliva, and then woke up leisurely.

She saw a mermaid.

The mermaid became different when talking with Hao Yun, she could talk, although Hao Yun couldn't understand what they were saying, but the drowning girl gradually calmed down, and even simply cleaned up the water-stained clothes.

The mermaid caught a strange-looking creature for the girl, but the girl didn't refuse or move.

The two stand together like twins.

The girl is thirsty, she needs water.But the island is all reefs and traces of moss, there is no water, and the sea is all salt water.

The mermaid seemed to hesitate for a moment, but she still liked this creature that looked exactly like herself—she bit her finger, squeezed out a drop of blue blood, and fed it to the girl.

The blood stained the girl's lips, and the girl's pale face instantly turned rosy.A trace of surprise and surprise flashed in the girl's eyes, she lowered her head, hiding all the surprise in her eyes.

The bright blue blood seemed to cast a layer of light on the girl's lips.As the blood entered the stomach, all the inhuman features of the girl quickly disappeared, and she became a completely human being, including the tiny blue fish scale lines.

The girl lived on the island, which is not considered an island at all, but more like a protruding reef from the sea. With the help of the mermaid, the girl transformed the island bit by bit.

But there is still no water source, and the mermaid living in the sea will never come into contact with the so-called fresh water... The mermaid can only feed the girl a little bit of his own blood, and the amount is increasing...Blood is like life force , this blue gem not only continued the girl's life, but also transformed her.

"She" is a murloc, and "she" is a monster.

Hao Yun had a guess.

Or she overturned her original guess.

Since it is an advanced dungeon, it also means that there are definitely players who have successfully cleared this dungeon and upgraded to intermediate players. Such a dungeon is not particularly difficult, but the level is definitely higher than other low-level dungeons.In Hao Yun's opinion, the rules of this dungeon are considered tolerant and gentle. It not only gives players a lot of time to move freely without any restrictions, there are even no rules that force the death condition to be triggered.Compared with the last dungeon [007's sudden death rate test experiment], this dungeon is already quite mild. In the last dungeon, after all, there is still a rule that requires triggering the death condition once an hour.

It was also because of the last dungeon, Hao Yun had only experienced two dungeons, [Mermaid and Murloc] was the second dungeon she participated in, and the experience she could sum up was limited, which caused her to make a habitual mistake.

She has always acquiesced that the player's game identity belongs to: "the descendants of the predecessors who came to participate in the baptism first", that is, "human beings", but the name of this game copy clearly implies that they have two different identities in this copy.

"Mermaid" is a customs clearance condition, and "Murloc" is a monster in the instance.The origin of the murloc is that the player mutated after experiencing alienation and the baptism of mermaid blood, and mermaid blood is the source of everything.

But no.

Ang Lee believes that the so-called mermaid is just a proxy for customs clearance conditions, because there are no other living creatures on this island.And according to what they mentioned by chance during their previous chat, before she entered the game, a woman named Crow successfully cleared the level, and she met the clearing condition: "find the mermaid".

This also shows in reverse that the "mermaid" is a certain condition that can be found.

This dungeon always reserves a retreat for the player, just like the existence of protection rules.

The mutation started after being exposed to blood. According to Xu Chunlai, a previous player died at night, and before he died, he was brought into this copy of the game... In other words, Xu Chunlai was actually the crow who successfully cleared the level Entered the game that night.

Hao Yun has always defaulted to the player's identity as a "human".

But now she hesitates.

"Mermaid" and "Murloc" have two different identity hints. What is the biggest difference between them?One lives on fresh water; the other lives in the ocean...Hao Yun has also seriously thought about whether it is the "fresh water" holy water that makes the murlocs have different osmotic pressures that cause the murlocs to swell wildly?

Obviously not.

There has never been any "human" identity, this is just an illusion brought about by inertial thinking, even the name of the dungeon is the most obvious and simple reminder... Could it be that he has been wearing this layer of human skin for too long?She gradually forgot what she really was?

Absolutely not.

Hao Yun has never forgotten what she is, but it is undeniable that after she entered the game, after she started chasing the eternal "death" in this game, her temper changed for the better.

In the beginning, she would physically remove the hands and lower body of the mummy, and carry out inhumane transformation, but now she can ignore Li An's ulterior motives... She feels that she is "coming alive", just like a drowning girl getting With the mermaid's blood, she also got a special "life force" here.

...It was as if she was born to belong here, she had found her belonging, and she was no longer the only alien.

There has never been a "human" identity, just like in the previous dungeon, all players have an identity in the game-at first Hao Yun thought it was the identity of the "believer who participated in the baptism".

but not.

The nuns in black knew that they were not the aborigines in this dungeon. In addition to maintaining the rules and attacking the players, they would even mislead the players to die.

The so-called "players" are actually "mermaids".

The moment you entered the game on the first day, you had already met the clearance requirements, and there was only one submission left.Murlocs will only attack players who have stayed in the game for a sufficient number of days, because they inevitably come into contact with all sources of infection, such as the so-called: "holy water", these players have completed alienation, started to pollute, and become A member of the murloc monster—this is also the reason why they were attacked by the murloc monster. The murloc monster alienated by the nun in black attacked and devoured their bodies, and took out the so-called "holy water" from the alienated murloc body , as the pollution source for the next round.

There is a hint to all of this.

For example, the ubiquitous fish smell and sea breeze; the requirement that food is not allowed to be wasted; the conditions for not being able to observe the baptism process... even the timeline regulations for the handover of day and night, everything has hints, the timeline is not just The boundary between the nun in black and the murloc is more of a protection and hint that the so-called "human" and the so-called murloc cannot coexist.

Because they are one.

Hao Yun doesn't think that other players will enter this strange place. This can only be attributed to his specialness and those memories he can't remember... The girl is more and more thirsty for the mermaid's blood, and the mermaid is also tolerant and satisfied the murloc's desire. All requirements.

Hao Yun didn't want to know how the mermaid died. She also guessed the real purpose of the mermaid's blood... Only after drinking fresh water, that is, the mermaid's blood, the girl will look like a human. The mermaid's blood is like suppressing Like a potion, it can keep the girl in human form and lose all inhuman features... It can also make her no longer suffer from the pain of pulling out the fish scales at sunrise and sunset.

As the blood volume of the mermaid continued to increase, the mermaid began to hesitate in making demands on the murloc, but the murloc begged again and again... her eyes were full of fanaticism.

For some reason, Hao Yun didn't want to see the mermaid die, but she knew that the thing inside the mermaid statue that could cause the statue to have body temperature...maybe something like a skeleton.

Hao Yun stood aside, watching the farce.

The mermaid rejected the murloc's request, and the murloc went crazy.

They tortured each other and refused to give in to each other.

It's about to end, Hao Yun suddenly thought.

Then she was pushed—

Hao Yun saw the person who pushed her, and the mermaid who lost her voice retreated her. The next moment, there were bubbles in front of her eyes, and the sea water squeezed up, as if it was going to drain the last trace of oxygen in her body.

She's sinking, sinking—

It seems to be a rule, Hao Yun didn't have much feeling, the feeling of drowning was real, but she didn't resist.

She touched the bottom of the sea.It was a piece of hard white marble, pitch black.

She's back, she's in the baptistery.
