Chapter 140: Nightmare: Gemini, Clear the Level!
Annan was full of emotion.
For the first time, he had seen a nightmare that could form a cycle of paradoxes and directly kill the purifiers. This also made Annan more wary of the mechanism of "nightmares".
Especially after he analyzed the method of clearing this nightmare, he couldn't help but admire Professor Gray's handwriting.
The nightmare he had devised was too elaborate.
It even hints at the way to clear the level from the very beginning -
The two sides exchanged three secrets, and the strategy of these three levels has been hinted at.
The first is fairness and symmetry - implying that Room 206 is the exit to fight for, which is also the easiest level.
Only by knowing each other well enough can these two people identify each other's true identities and get enough information in the second level...... And everyone must rely on their own strength to clear the level in order for two people to reach the third level at the same time.
And the test of the third level seems to be the easiest.
- Have the actor of "Justes" kill "Frederick" and then kill himself.
If you just ask players to make such a choice, it won't be difficult at all.
But after they learned the information from the second level, the two purifiers instinctively wondered, "Will this do you get stuck in this nightmare?" That's why they don't dare to act at will.
"Frederick" will wonder if the other party will honestly commit suicide in the way he is promised. And "Just" will worry that if he really kills himself, will he die in this nightmare like the real Justs - after all, "Frederick" will not have to bear the consequences no matter what.
If they are strangers and don't trust each other enough, they will already quarrel here.
What made Annan certain about this matter was what Nefertari had said.
"Frederick" died three times, she said. This shows that she has become an "enlightened being...... And smoothly stuck himself to death.
The nightmares she has experienced are obviously a little bigger than Annan's.
And they woke up almost at the same time.
So after Annan died in his dream, he must have waited for Nefertari for a while.
You know, when you're kicked out by a nightmare, you'll wake up right away.
Why would Annan wait?
There is probably only one answer.
That is, he actually has a chance to be resurrected once.
The players who can ignore life and death, and even the huskies and thirteen incense who still trust each other are so entangled at this moment.
How can the aborigines of this world easily entrust their lives and deaths to the "promise" of another person?
Only in the case of Annan believing in Nefertali, Thirteen Incense believing in Annan, Huskies believing in Thirteen Incense, and Thirteen Incense also believing in Huskies...... This nightmare can barely be cleared.
The estrangement between people may be another tragedy that Professor Gray wants to show to tragedy writers.
That is, a tragedy off the stage.
Nefertari called this nightmare the reason for the "phantom heat...... Annan gradually understood.
Frederick has been resurrected.
The protagonist of this nightmare, from the very beginning, is Justes.
What is Phantom Heat...... It was the temperature of Justes's palm, which was almost so hot that it burned Annan's shoulder.
- It was the blood of a friend, the phantom heat that remained on the fingertips.
Annan suddenly remembered the first time he had entered this nightmare...... The reaction of the real Justes.
At the moment when Annan tentatively said, "You still can't forget Ingrid", Justes looked back at Annan.
…… That's right.
Although Justes killed Ingrid for the sake of Frederick countless times.
But Ingrid is also the person he has a crush on.
That's why Justes is fascinated by the dream that "Frederick and Ingrid are both alive" and denies the reality that "Frederick and Ingrid are both dead". This was his first step into the theater of tragedy.
And this proves ...... It's not like Justes doesn't care about Ingrid.
He just cared more about Frederick in relative terms.
Killing Ingrid again and again, only to bury himself deeper; When he finally made up his mind to come to his senses and kill Frederick with his own hands...... The nightmare was born.
He's dead.
"Phantom Heat...... ? ”
Annan muttered, "What a name that is ironic to the point of sadness."
"Presumably the name of this nightmare was also given by Professor Gray. Every time the name 'Phantom Fever' is recited, it is another mockery of Justes. ”
If you had to give him a better name......
“…… His Highness Annan. You said that the name of the nightmare is just a name, right? ”
Delicious Wind Goose suddenly spoke: "We might as well 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 moment when he heard this, and nodded silently.
It is true that this world has a starry sky that is the same as on Earth. Except that the sun has special effects, the stars and the moon are no different...... It's just that the starry sky is exceptionally bright.
It's just that the constellations are not eighty-eight in modern times, but sixty - and some vacancies have not yet been named. And there are some differences in the names of the constellations of the two worlds.
For example, there is no Scorpio here, but it is called Raven; There is no Capricorn, but it is called Leviathan.
There is also a Gemini in this world. However, the story of Gemini in this world involves mysterious knowledge at the level of "history", and considering the weight of mysterious knowledge, Annan did not study it.
It's just their own name, anyway.
Justes is miserable enough.
At least Annan and the players don't want to laugh at this miserable man who was originally just a little greedy for "friendship and love", and he is neither alive nor dead in an infinite loop.
This "unfallen shield" that has saved many people.
After being killed by the husky, the screen on Thirteen Incense's side turns black.
But as they expected...... Thirteen incense is obviously dead, and this nightmare will be kicked out once it dies. But he was still asleep.
On the husky's side, the four words "you have decided" began to twist rapidly.
Eventually, it changed its entire appearance.
[I came to my senses].
It says.
The next moment, the husky's eyes turned.
He appeared in a new place.
“…… Changing the past is not an easy task. ”
Professor Grey's voice sounded in front of him: "When you go back, remember not to modify the superfluous ...... Well, okay. It seems that I don't need to say more nonsense. ”
The gray-haired and gray-eyed old man still smelled of wine.
He looked at the husky with a smile: "You finally came to your senses." ”
Seti was still wearing the purple robe of an ancient Roman sage, and his hands naturally spread out to the sides: "It's not easy. I don't know how many times you've looped...... Decided to leave from the nightmare?
"Then kill me, I won't resist."
"Huh?"
The husky sneered: "Do you still want to lie to me now, old god?" ”
He clenched his fists.
Justes' fist was still hot and powerful.
This is a fist thrown to save a friend.
At this moment, the husky's eyes flashed with wisdom: "Or do you finally have something...... Can't see it? ”
Setty's face changed slightly.
The corners of the husky's mouth rose: "You don't have to trick me. Whatever you say, it won't change my resolve – I'm going to kill myself and get another person out of here. This is the trust I have with him.
"But until then......"
The husky grinned.
He bared Just's cold, sharp teeth.
"I say, shameless old thing. Is it fun to watch the play from the sidelines? ”
The husky's face showed a wolf-like fierce light: "Before I have enough of it and decide to leave......
"-I'm going to give you a good beating!"
