498 Dream of the Abyss

"My ...... Nightmare ......"

Hearing this, Jane kept blinking her eyes, the bright green light in her eyes kept flickering, and the "butcher" who was blocking the bedroom door suddenly began to be illusory.

"It's impossible......"

Jane's voice became weaker, with a weak appearance, sounding like a terminally ill patient: "They are all my friends......"

Although she was still retorting, her muffled voice like a dream, the movement of subconsciously holding her arms, and the constant blinking of her eyes all showed the fact that she was panicked.

As Jane begins to be confused, the entire Doomsday Hotel, like a mosaic movie, begins to appear blurry and distorted.

The dull yellow wallpaper lost its color and turned a cold gray, and the butcher's human fur coat began to become transparent, and his body seemed to turn into smoke, and after being twisted and deformed, it finally disappeared completely.

"Is that really the case......

Realizing that his guess had come true, Lin Chi quietly clenched his fists. In fact, he could not confirm the correctness of his inference until he stated it, but chose the one that seemed to him to be the most likely.

- It seems that this dangerous gamble should have been won by himself.

Thinking of this, Lin Chi couldn't help laughing out loud, and continued to say his inference slowly:

"When I first came here, I noticed that there were no aborigines at all, only some outsiders were fighting. And, of course, that murderous butcher. At the time, I thought that the aborigines in this virtual space were all dead. But when I entered the apartment, I found that there was no one but you. ”

"They all used Mr. Vincent's dream machine to get in here...... "Jane was still whispering to explain, but the pale reason was apparently not even believed by herself.

"Even if they entered here using a dream machine, where did their 'bodies' in that world go?" Lin Chi ruthlessly pointed out the loopholes in the girl's words: "Do you think that dream maker also has the function of making people's bodies cross?" ”

Speaking of this, Lin Chi took a step forward and stood in front of the girl who was slowly retreating: "At first, I did think that these people were dead, but when I was hiding from the black-clothed soldiers in that apartment, I realized that something was wrong. Let me start by asking, you didn't have a camera in your apartment room, right? ”

"No...... The residents won't allow me to invade their privacy. Zhen shook her head in fear, obviously unwilling to believe Lin Chi's statement.

However, even if she was not ready to face the reality, Lin Chi still continued to tell the truth and reveal the true situation of this "dream space".

"You saw that too, right? In order to avoid the search of the black-clad soldiers, I hid in a room on the first floor and ambushed them inside. The room looked like it was inhabited, with furniture and all kinds of appliances. But ......"

Speaking of this, Lin Chi suddenly lowered his voice and whispered in the girl's ear:

"There wasn't anyone in that room, and there was no interface to the so-called 'dream maker.'"

"He may be out......" Jane was still powerless in her rebuttal, her words completely out of logic.

"Even if he goes out, where are all the other people in the apartment who are supposed to be using the Dream Maker?" Lin Chi sighed meaningfully: "You should have discovered it a long time ago, but you just subconsciously ignored this fact, right?" In that apartment, which is also a virtual world, there are no aborigines at all except you. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

As soon as these words came out, Jane was silent again, and the dull expression on her face was like a stupid doll. She slowly raised her trembling right hand, and her body seemed to be making a "crackling" sound of shattering three views.

The girl wanted to refute, but couldn't say anything.

As Lin Chi said, this leader-level NPC had actually noticed the fact that "there was no one in the apartment at all" a long time ago, but he selectively ignored this information and deceived himself with false information.

- There weren't any natives in that apartment other than Jane. In the absence of people, she "saw" a large number of residents, and even had the "mind reading" to see the minds of other people, and saw through the minds of these residents.

Even though those characters didn't exist at all, Jane still saw what was in their minds.

As for why this is so, the reasons are already clear:

"Could it be...... The apartment ......" Jane's face turned pale and she began to cough incessantly.

"That's right, just like here, that apartment is also a virtual space that you 'brain've made up', and the residents in the apartment are just characters in your fantasy."

"The so-called 'Vincent' should be the common image of a handsome gentleman in the hearts of girls, he is personable, gentle, loyal, and reliable...... All in all, all the advantages are accounted for. When I was a kid, I used to fantasize that I was that kind of person. Lin Chi smiled.

Jane hung her head in silence.

"As for Vincent's fiancΓ©e, the woman named Catherine, as you said, she is completely different from you, a very mature woman. I looked at her picture, she is a mature and beautiful woman, perhaps, that's what you've always wanted. ”

Lin Chi continued to use a calm voice to express his inference: "The other people in the apartment should have satisfied some of your habits. As for the murderous butcher, it is an 'automatic defense mechanism' that repels others from your heart, and is used to clear out uninvited guests who appear in your dreams. Anyone can think this way, like no one wants to see a stranger into their home. ”

"It's impossible...... Jane took a step back blankly, leaning against the gray wall, her eyes glinting like a starry sky.

"Let's face it." Lin Chi stared at the other party's godless blind eyes: "If you still want to go back to the 'real world', don't run away from everything that happened, only in this way can we get out of here." ”

Jane sat on the ground weakly, her sluggish appearance as if her soul had been drained, and the space around her, which had lost its color, began to collapse at a speed visible to the naked eye.

When the truth is revealed, the fictional "Doomsday Hotel" can no longer maintain its original form. The space around Lin Chi quickly collapsed, shattering like a collapsed building block, followed by the snow-white ceiling in the underground ward of the apartment.

With the collapse of the Doomsday Inn, he returns to this apartment, which is also a hallucinatory space. However, the space where the apartment is located has not collapsed and remains in its original state.

Lin Chi tore off the electrodes on his body and sat up from the sink, and then he heard the girl's weak voice sound from the speaker in the corner of the room:

"I'm sorry...... I couldn't wake up from this nightmare. ”
