Chapter 140 Nightmare: Gemini, Clear the Level!
Annan was overwhelmed with emotion.
For the first time, he saw a nightmare that could form a paradox cycle and directly kill the purifier. This also made Annan more vigilant about the mechanism of "nightmare".
Especially after he analyzed the way to clear this nightmare, he couldn't help but admire Professor Gray's handwriting.
The nightmare he designed was too delicate.
It even hinted at the way of clearance from the very beginning-
The two sides exchanged three secrets, and they have already prompted the strategy of these three levels.
The first is fairness and symmetry - suggesting that room 206 is the exit to strive for, which is also the easiest level.
Only when these two people know each other well enough can they identify each other's true identity in the second level and get enough information... and each of them must rely on their own strength to pass the level before they can reach the third level at the same time.
The third test seems to be the easiest.
- Have the "Justus" actor kill "Frederick" and then kill himself.
If players are directly asked to make such a choice, it does not have any difficulty.
But after they learned the information from the second level, the two purifiers would instinctively doubt, "Will this be stuck in this nightmare as well?" So they dare not act at will.
"Frederick" will doubt whether the other party will honestly commit suicide according to the agreed method. And "Justus" will worry that if he really commits suicide, will he be stuck in this nightmare like the real Justus-after all, "Frederick" doesn't have to bear the burden no matter what. consequences.
If they were strangers and didn't trust each other enough, there would already be fights here.
It was Nefertari's words that made Annan confirm this matter.
"Frederick" died three times, she said. This shows that she has become an "enlightened person"... and successfully stuck herself to death.
The nightmares she experienced were obviously bigger than those of Annan.
And they woke up almost at the same time.
So after Annan died in a dream, he must have waited for Nefertari for a while.
You know, when you are kicked out of a nightmare, you will wake up immediately.
Why did Annan wait a while?
There is probably only one answer.
That is, he actually has another chance to be resurrected.
Just the players who can ignore life and death, and even the Huskies and Shisanxiang who trust each other are so entangled at this moment.
How can the aborigines of this world easily entrust their life and death on the "promise" of another person?
Only when Annan believes in Nefertari, Shisanxiang believes in Annan, Huskies believe in Shisanxiang, and Shisanxiang also believes in Huskies... This nightmare can barely pass the customs.
The separation between people may be another tragedy that Professor Gray wants to show to the tragic writer.
That is, the tragedy off the stage.
The reason Nefertari called this nightmare "phantom fever"... Annan gradually understood.
Frederick has been resurrected.
The protagonist of this nightmare was Justus from the very beginning.
The so-called phantom heat...is the temperature in Justus' palm that was so hot that it would burn Annan's shoulder.
——It was the blood of friends, the phantom heat that remained on the fingertips.
Annan suddenly recalled the first time he entered this nightmare... the reaction of the real Justus.
At the moment when Annan tentatively said "You still can't forget Ingrid", Justus turned his head to look at Annan.
...that's right.
Although Justus killed Ingrid countless times for Frederick.
But Ingrid is also the person he has a crush on.
That's why Justus is obsessed with the dream that "Frederick and Ingrid are both alive", while denying the reality that "Frederick and Ingrid are both dead". This was his first step into the theatre of tragedy.
And this also proves... Justus doesn't care about Ingrid.
He just cares more about Frederick, relatively speaking.
Reluctantly killing Ingrid again and again, but only burying himself deeper; finally determined to wake up and kill Frederick with his own hands... This nightmare was born.
he died.
"Phantom heat...?"
Annan murmured: "What an ironic, almost sad name.
"Probably the name of this nightmare was also named by Professor Gray. Every time I say the name 'Phantom Heat', it's another mockery of Justus."
If there was a better name for him...
"...His Royal Highness Annan. You said that the name of Nightmare is just a title, right."
Delicious Wind Goose suddenly said, "Let's call this nightmare Gemini."
...the legend of Gemini?
The friendship between the Son of God and the Son of Man is indeed appropriate.
Annan thought for a while after hearing the words, and nodded silently.
This world does have a starry sky that is similar to the one on Earth. Except for the special effects of the sun, the stars and the moon are no different... It's just that the starry sky is extra bright.
It's just that the constellations aren't the modern eighty-eight, but sixty—and some vacancies haven't been named yet. The names of the constellations in the two worlds are also slightly different.
For example, there is no Scorpio, but the Raven; there is no Capricorn, but the Leviathan.
The world also has Geminis. However, the story of Gemini in this world involves mysterious knowledge of the "historical" level. Considering the weight of mysterious knowledge, Annan did not study it.
It's just their own name anyway.
Justus is miserable enough.
At least Annan and the players don't want to laugh at this miserable man who was originally just for the sake of "friendship and love", but is neither life nor death in an infinite loop.
This "shield of infallibility" that has saved many people.
After being killed by the Husky, the picture on Shisanxiang's side became a black screen.
But just as they expected... Shisanxiang is already dead, and this nightmare will be kicked out once he dies. But he was still asleep.
On the Husky's side, the words "You have decided" began to twist rapidly.
In the end, it has changed as a whole.
【I realized it】.
It says so.
The next moment, the scene in front of Husky's eyes changed.
He appeared in a new place.
"...Changing the past is not an easy task."
Professor Gray Seti's voice sounded in front of his eyes: "When you go back, remember not to modify the excess... um, okay. It seems that I don't need to say more nonsense."
The gray-haired and gray-eyed old man still smelled of alcohol.
He smiled and looked at Husky: "You finally realized."
Seti was still wearing the purple robe of an ancient Roman sage, and his hands naturally spread out to both sides: "It's really not easy. I don't know how many times you've cycled... Have you decided to leave the nightmare?
"Then kill me, I won't resist."
"what?"
Husky sneered: "Do you still want to lie to me now, old god?"
He made a fist.
Justus' fist is still hot and powerful.
This is a fist thrown to save a friend.
At this moment, Husky's eyes were shining brightly with wisdom: "Or, you finally have something... Can't you see it?"
Seti's expression changed slightly.
The corner of Husky's mouth rose: "You don't have to deceive me. No matter what you say, it can't change my determination - I will kill myself and let the other person get out of here. This is the trust between me and him.
"But before that..."
Husky grinned.
He bared Justus' cold, sharp teeth.
"I said, shameless old thing. Is it fun to watch a play on the side?"
Husky's face showed a wolf-like fierce light: "Before I am enough and decide to leave...
"—I'm going to beat you up!"
