Chapter 33: Back to 07, I can only meet you in this kind of ghost place.

Pure white world.
It's like a piece of white paper that hasn't been contaminated with pen and ink. Although it is clean, it is so scary.
This is Muqin's entire impression of this safe house, a completely enclosed space without doors and windows. What surprised Mu Qin was that the air in the enclosed space was not boring. Mu Qin found that the air was flowing, but Mu Qin did not find anything like a vent in this pale room.
Mu Qin came to the safe house for the first time. After a period of panic and bewilderment, Mu Qin calmed down and began to inspect himself and the surrounding environment.
He wasn't wearing real-world clothes, but the gray suit and pants that resembled prison uniforms in the game, and had nothing else on his body.
A standby screen flashes on the virtual screen in the center of the room.
This is Mu Qin's second discovery. If the player does not talk to the mechanical female voice of the game system for a long time, and does not operate the virtual screen to query other things related to the game, then a standby screen will appear on this virtual screen. Familiar picture.
A snake cross sign with a black background behind it.
This sign is exactly the same as the small snake cross model that Mu Qin got in Zhou Yue's bedroom. The carved pattern on the cross, the angle of the black snake winding, and even the slightly reflective scales on the snake are all the same. That little model looks exactly the same.
Mu Qin knew that these were no coincidences. He thought that if he could use these imprints on the wall to contact Zhou Yue, he would have to ask Zhou Yue many questions.
Regarding the meaning of the snake cross sign, and the fact that Zhou Yue did not die in the real world, but became a vegetative, and why Zhou Yue was carrying a white card when she became a vegetative in an accident. Who is doing everything possible to compete for this card?
Mu Qin had too many questions to ask Zhou Yue, but he failed to contact Zhou Yue.
He fumbled around on the wall behind the virtual screen. There are many marks and messages left by other players on the wall. Some are just graffiti, some are unknown words.
And most of the messages left by these players are full of negative energy.
Muqin saw a lot of these words on it--
"I'm going to die, definitely next game!"
"I want to go home or die."
"You can commit suicide in a safe house. Has anyone committed suicide with me?"
"The above is nonsense. You cannot die in the safe house. All injuries and damage will be repaired. You can only harm yourself and then feel pain."
"I'm going crazy, I'm going crazy, crazy, crazy!"
"I killed five people in the game hahahahahahahaha!"
These things are messy, inexplicable, and some contain curse words, endlessly carved on the wall, feeling like a group of lunatics reveling on the wall, venting their inner pain.
Some people maliciously engraved their handwritings very large, engraving a huge "dead" character on the entire wall. With the self-healing function of the safe house taking effect, these handwritings were also slowly updated and disappeared.
Mu Qin did not find the handwriting that belonged to Zhou Yue. He certainly remembered the handwriting of Zhou Yue. Zhou Yue practiced calligraphy for a period of time. His words were always very beautiful, simple and solid, and had a super-easy charm.
This kind of gongbi with carcass feels like some kind of masterpiece of art. In high school, Mu Qin who was infatuated with Zhou Yue secretly kept the books and papers written by Zhou Yue every time. The words written by Zhou Yue above were cut out and pasted on her own notebook to collect and collect. This behavior made Mu Qin feel a bit abnormal.
But later, because the old man sold Mu Qin's parents' house, many things in the house also made him sell. Those books collected by Mu Qin's collection of Zhou Yue's handwriting naturally disappeared. This has kept Mu Chin was very sorry.
Cannot find Zhou Yue's handwriting, Mu Qin did not give up, he decided to squat against this wall. Mu Qing thought that if Zhou Yue in the safe house had never contacted Mu Qin, Zhou Yue would surely be anxious. In terms of Zhou Yue's personality, he has a great possibility to take a message on the wall every two hours. He insisted on having a dialogue with Mu Qin, so Mu Qin only needed to wait by the wall to see Zhou Yue's message.
Of course, Muqin can also take the initiative to contact.
Just as Mu Qin can recognize Zhou Yue's handwriting at a glance, for Zhou Yue, Mu Qin's words are very easy to recognize as if they were highlighted, so Mu Qin can also follow the lettering on the wall for Zhou Yue to see .
In order to lettering, Muqin needs a sharp weapon like a knife. So Muqin looked around. There was nothing in the pure white safe house, except for the suspended virtual screen in the middle.
Mu Qin thought about it, instead of leaving the wall, he squatted by the corner of the wall to raise the volume and shouted, "Hey ... are you there?"
"Are you calling me?" The mechanical female voice immediately appeared in the middle virtual screen, and the voice was unchanged and sweet. "May I help you?"
"What should I call you?" Mu Qin said to the female, "I can't keep shouting 'Hey Hey.'"
"You can call me‘ 3780 ’, or call me directly to the system, or give me a name you like and say well.
The female voice of the system is gentle and patient.
Mu Qin said inexplicably, "Why 3780?"
"Because I happen to be the 3,780 system," said the female voice. "Each system corresponds to one player, and I will only provide you with exclusive services."
Muqin understood: "meaning I am the 3,780 person who entered this game."
"Yes, you can understand that."
Mu Qin thought about it and said to the system: "Then I will call you the system ... Then the system, if I rest in the safe house for three days, how do I spend these three days, should I sit without eating or drinking Right here? "
The system responds: "If you need to eat, tell me what you want to eat."
Muchin tilted his head for a moment and deliberately made a difficult request: "I want to eat French steak."
The female voice of the system is still sweet: "Okay, please wait."
Although it was said that Mu Qin waited, Mu Qing did not wait long, and within two seconds, Mu Qin saw a dining car ... Yes, it was a dining car! This dining car appeared out of thin air. It is the kind of luxury luxury metal dining car in the hotel. It shines perfectly to reflect Muqin's face.
The dining car was pushed by no one, and he moved to Muqin by himself.
A white ceramic plate was placed on the dining car, and the plate was covered with a stainless steel lid. Mu Qin lifted the lid and saw a hot, delicious, and tender French fried steak lying in front of him.
Next to it are some exquisite bread vegetables and drinks.
Muqin stared at the perfect dish for a long time, and the female voice there continued to say, "Do you need a dining table and a chair? I can place it in your designated position."
Muqin thought he could understand the situation of the safe house. Muqin said: "Can you change this place as long as I want?"
The system says, "Yes, no matter what your needs, I can meet you."
"If I said that my sexuality came up and wanted a woman to make me sting, could you also change me into a woman?" Mu Qin said these words with shame.
The system is more shameless than him, because she is only artificial intelligence. The system says: "I cannot make a living woman in a safe house, so I can't make you a living woman, but it can be a fake doll, and I can make sure that the doll has Temperature and a certain dialogue, the texture feels like a real person. "
Then the system further added: "But as far as I know, your sexual orientation is not the opposite sex. If you want, I can make a male puppet that perfectly meets your aesthetics."
Muqin felt a headache, and he couldn't help rubbing his head. To the system again: "Forget it, I don't need a woman or a man, you give me a knife."
Then a knife appeared on the dining car in front of Mu Qing.
The system continues to add there: "You can get anything I can make in the safe house, but please note that things in the safe house cannot be taken out or brought into the game map, you can only be in the safe house use."
Mu Qin understood this and didn't answer. He started to write on the wall with a knife.
Mu Qin did not know what should be carved. He tried to carve his handwriting as much as possible, because it was written in italics, and he did not worry about being recognized by what he was writing. He simply engraved Zhou Yue's boldly. Name and write: I love you.
I wrote five or six rows of "Zhou Yue I Love You" in the corner.
After finishing writing, Mu Qin looked blushing himself, thinking that he should just cross the words with a knife, but before he could do it, he saw a line of his own words, someone picked him up and said "I love you too ".
Looking at the handwriting, it is clearly Zhou Yue's.
Muchin suddenly became ecstatic, and then excitedly wrote, "Are you there? Are you okay?"
"I've been there, I'm fine."
"Are you really Zhou Yue?"
"Of course, aren't you Muqin?"
Mu Qin was even happier, and he could not wait for Zhou Yue to be in front of him right now, so he could jump directly to hug the other side.
Unfortunately, Zhou Yue is not in front of him.
The feeling of being able to talk only through words made Mu Qin feel very sad. There was a sense of sight of an "unreachable lover".
"I miss you so much." Mu Qin wrote on the wall, clearly he had a lot of questions to ask Zhou Yue, and now he really got in touch, but only wrote about his feelings about him, "I want to see you."
Zhou Yue also wrote a reply: "I also think, don't worry, we will meet soon after the game."
Zhou Yue mentioned the next game. Muqin suddenly remembered those things that he had experienced in the real world. He wanted to explain to Zhou Yue one by one, but because he could only communicate by writing on the wall, it was really It's too slow and limited, and anyone can write on the wall. The entire wall is very messy, and other people's handwriting can easily cover Muqin's.
Muqin tried to explain everything he experienced in the most concise terms.
Mu Qin lettering: "Zhou Yue, you are not dead, your body is alive in the real world and is a vegetative."
After Muqin's words were engraved, Zhou Yue on the other side did not reply to Muqin for a long time. Only then Muqin saw his handwriting appearing on the wall: "I know."
Zhou Qin's words shocked Mu Qin. he knows? What else does he know?
Mu Qin originally wanted to continue to write something, but Zhou Yue first continued to write: "Mu Qin, the three days of the safe house, don't need to spend it completely, any player can choose to start the game in advance. We set a Time, at noon tomorrow at twelve noon, you and me enter the game together, the same time period to enter the game, there is a great chance of matching together. "
Zhou Yue's handwriting kept on: "But if it fails, you must live well and wait for the next round, we still have a chance to meet."
"I have a lot of things to tell you." Zhou Yue's lettering is fast, and it's a new row soon, "but I can't finish talking for a while."
"So you just need to remember the important ... In this marginal world, only I will help you, only I can be trusted, and only I will love you forever."
Later, Zhou Yue could not continue to communicate with Mu Qin's lettering, because the repair function of the safe house began to work. Within a few minutes, all the handwriting on the wall completely disappeared, and the entire wall became clean, tidy, smooth, and beautiful. When Mu Qin wanted to continue engraving on it, he found that his blade could not leave any marks on the wall.
"What's going on?" Muchin asked System 3780.
The female voice replied to him: "The player communicates by writing a message on the wall. This is the default communication method allowed by the system, but there is a time limit. From 8 am to 10 am and from 6 to 8 pm, you can The period of time left in the safe house. After this period of time, your destruction will not leave any marks in the safe house. "
"What time is it now?" Muchin asked the system.
"It's eight o'clock in the evening." The system answered
Muqin said: "Is the time in the fringe world synchronized with the real world?"
"Yes, sync."
After hearing the system's answer, Mu Qin can really confirm that he actually returned to the real world after escaping the game map before. He stayed in the real world for two days and finally died because of a gunshot. This so-called "marginal world".
It felt as if he was playing well in a certain game, and suddenly dropped off for two days in the middle. After re-launching, he was still in the original position, and Zhou Yue had gone to the front.
Fortunately, players can start new games at any time, so that at least the gap between Mu Qin and Zhou Yue is not widened. Mu Qin must keep pace with Zhou Yue. He wants to be with Zhou Yue. If they ca n’t in the real world, If you live normally, at least here ...
Mu Qin thought, lying on the wall where he and Zhou Yue had a lettering conversation.
"I'm so sorry." Mu Qin said to himself, "I shouldn't have left, I should stay with you ... I don't want to accept your help for my boring self-esteem, for the so-called backbone. I am afraid of us Future, fearing the fate we are facing, so I fled, fled, and can only meet you in this ghost place. "
Muqin felt a little moist in his eyes. He lowered his head, pressed his head against the wall, and clenched his fists.
"I'm so unwilling, I'm dead."
...
Since he could no longer talk to Zhou Yue, Mu Qin had to leave the wall and return to the virtual screen of the system 3780.
Because he has already made an appointment with Zhou Yue to start the new game on time at 12 noon tomorrow, Mu Qin must have some preparations before that. The most basic thing is that he must know the basic rules in the game, except Zhou Yue told Mu Qin Of those, there are still many places where Muqin has not understood.
Muqin asked the system and said, "How many rewards did I get in the game map?"
"You got a total of 13,200 reward points in the map of the game" Iris Orphanage. "The female voice of the system always answered all Muqin's questions so calmly.
Thirteen thousand and two.
Muqin meditated on the number in his heart ... it was more than he thought. Thinking of this, Muqin greeted the system and said, "Open the mall."
The system did not answer, and showed Mu Qin that so-called "mall" directly on the virtual screen.
The mall interface is the same as many electronic malls in the game, but there are not many things in it. After the system 3780 opened the mall, Mu Qin looked at it and was dumbfounded. There were only five things in this mall It's five tarot cards.
Five different tarot cards, distinguished as coin 3 and coin servants, holy grail knight and sword 6, and the last one is the "moon" in Greater Arcana.
The five tarot cards have different patterns, which are very beautiful and exquisite. They look like real objects floating in the mall interface, as if they can reach out and take out the cards from the inside.
With just five tarot cards, Muqin was a little overwhelmed, and he began to ask the system: "Is this the only thing in the mall?"
The system responded to Mu Qin, saying: "In the fringe world game mall, players will be provided with different products for a limited time every day, and the products are different every day. Players should choose to purchase it at their own discretion.
Muqin understood, and he asked, "Are there only Tarot cards in the mall?"
"Yes, the mall only offers players cards."
Muqin approached the virtual screen, and carefully observed the prices of the five tarot cards in the mall. All the tarot cards here are a little bit expensive, and each one does not receive 3,000 bonus points, especially the Holy Grail knights. Five thousand bonus points, and the last big Alcana moon card directly reached the high price of ten thousand.
Muqin didn't quite understand, he actively asked the system: "I heard that every time a new game starts, the system will automatically draw a tarot card for players entering the map, from the 0th foolish to the 21st world. In the Alcanataro card, random draws are made, and the killer will always draw the death card. "
"Suppose I enter the game with this moon card I bought in the mall, then I still get the tarot card that the system automatically draws me when I enter the game?" Muqin mainly wanted to know this At one point, he wanted to know how many tarot cards a player could hold in the game.
The system answered Muqin's question: "The prop card system of Border World uses the Tarot card setting, which is divided into 'master card' and 'secondary card'. The main card is 22 big arcanas, starting from the number 0 fool card. By the 21st world card, all are the primary cards. The secondary cards are the four groups of little Arcana, including the scepter, the holy grail, the sword and the coin. "
"At the beginning of each game, the system will randomly draw a master card for each player. This master card is a fixed card. It is a card you will definitely get in the game. Even if you have a hand Holding other main cards at the same time is not affected by it, but you can only bring an extra 'card' into the game at a time. "
"Meaning I can hold two cards in the game?" Mu Qin squinted and stared at the cards in the mall.
The system responds: "Yes, you can hold two different cards in the game."
Mu Qin felt a moment while thinking outside his chin. He continued to ask the system: "What does that deck of cards mean? How many coins, holy grails and swords can I bring into the game?"
"The secondary card is a consumption card. You can only bring one into the game. After entering the game, the secondary card will be consumed automatically and will take effect immediately."
Mu Qin held out his hand, pointed at the sword 6 in the mall, and asked, "Does the sword 6 have any effect?"
"You can reach out and touch the cards in the mall, and instructions will appear next to the cards."
When Mu Qin heard that, he reached out and touched the sword 6 in the virtual screen. I saw this card that Muqin "touched" suddenly trembled, as if Muqin was shy when he touched it, then it was enlarged on the screen, and a line of text appeared next to it:
"The swan rises and rises under the crow's shroud and takes you out of the dark abyss."
"Consumption card. When you get the key or item in the map that can open the exit, your movement speed will increase slightly."
Muchin stared at the description of the card for a second, and finally came to the conclusion: "It looks like ... useless."
The system says: "You can choose the cards you need to buy, or store your reward points for future purchases and upgrades for better items."
Mu Qin poked his lips and reached out to touch another card description. This time he touched the 10,000-dollar ‘moon’ card. I saw such a string of instructions next to the moon card:
"Dream, fantasy, and loss. The moon is the representative of night and the end of day."
"Darkness will protect you, but death will not."
"Prop card, carry this card, and when you hide in the shadows and dark corners, you will become one with the darkness."
"Mixed with the darkness?" Mu Qin looked at the instructions of the moon card for unknown reasons, and then suddenly he suddenly appeared, surprised: "Does it mean to be invisible in the dark?"
The system did not answer Muqin's question, so Muqin went to see the description of the other deputy cards one by one. Those coin holy grail sword cards are basically the kind of cards that are totally useless ... Among them, the coins seem to be slightly better, especially the coin servants. Its effect is that after the game is over, players who successfully escape can get more bonus points.
After looking at these few cards, Mu Qin did not want to buy any of them. The Moon card seems to be very useful, but it is too expensive.
Mu Qin wanted to see something else, he asked the system and said, "Does the reward point also improve my physical fitness?"
Then the system changed the interface of the mall and showed Mu Qin's personal panel to him. Mu Qin saw his physical quality listed as data, which was clearly displayed:
