Chapter 406 Starting point and ending point

Chapter 406 Starting point and ending point

Qiu Kui was assigned to Luo Xi's side because his ability of [Shadow] was auxiliary, and he was best at detection, tracking, and protection.
However, what she showed was a kind of wariness and indifference that kept people at a distance. She only talked about the mission and didn't say a word other than that.

But Luo Xi is also like this.

Even in this respect, he is even worse than her.

This was also the conclusion Qiu Kui came to after spending several days together.

In her eyes, Luo Xi was simply an extremely efficient "machine" who could see through people's minds. Sometimes, she felt that her thoughts had no secrets at all from Luo Xi.

She had to admit that this Luo Xi was indeed the kind of person she had never seen before.

Moreover, Luo Xi's abilities are extremely powerful.

She didn't know what Luo Xi's "career card" was, but the other party actually did something that made her feel extremely unbelievable.

This was the city area that Lu Ting had previously blown up with fifty [Class A bombs], nearly killing thousands of ordinary people. No one knew what Luo Xi had done, but after the next cycle, this area had undergone great changes.

This change is not easy to describe, but I can explain it from several examples. For example, a roadside store used to be a "convenience store", but now it has become a "barber shop".

The traffic policeman who was on duty on the road before has become Mr. Tony in the barber shop this time.

In other words, Luo Xi changed what was originally done every day in a cycle, which was restored according to a fixed pattern and script.

In addition to the properties of buildings, there are people.

The focus is people.

The traffic policeman becomes a barber, this is just the tip of the iceberg. The identities and even the "memories" of almost everyone in this area have been distorted.

Correct!
In Qiu Kui's opinion, the only word to describe it is 'twisted'.

Those "amnesiacs" were not aware of this at all. Qiu Kui even secretly talked to some of them and found out some truths that made her scalp tingle, that is, what was changed in these people was not only their identities, but also their perception of their own identities.

Even if Qiu Kui racked his brains, he couldn't figure out what kind of ability could do this.

Let a street sweeper become a middle school teacher, and even let the other party have the corresponding knowledge and memory; for example, let several strangers form a family, and each other's memories can be linked, and each time the cycle day is reset, they can start from this false memory.

This is simply a 'miracle'.

That is something that only God can do.

Therefore, if we look at it from this point alone, Lu Ting was not exaggerating when she said that Luo Xi was the strongest person who could recall memories.

How exactly did he do it?
What on earth is he going to do?
Could it be that he could really break this day of confinement?
Okra overlooked one point.

The moment she became curious about Luo Xi, she was destined to be used by him.

Luo Xi had already foreseen this the moment she chose to join him.

"Next, we need to participate in a level scene."

On the twelfth day of Qiu Kui's joining, Luo Xi gathered together some of the new masters of the Memory Collector and gave them a task.

"Are we the only ones here?" Qiu Kui looked around and found that Lu Ting was not among them.

"And me." Luo Xi answered without saying anything else and announced his departure.

He didn't even explain the information and intelligence about the level scene he was going to participate in.

But since no one else asked, Qiu Kui didn't say anything either.

It was not until Luo Xi brought everyone to the location of the scene that people began to get a little restless.

Including okra.

The reason is very simple. This scene is very famous among the people of Shiyi. Even Qiu Kui, who is very Buddhist and almost indifferent to the world, has heard of it.

The reason why this level scene is famous is because of its difficulty.

Some people say that this may be the most difficult level scene in the Days of Confinement, and since it was discovered by the Memory Collector, more than a hundred cycles have passed, and no Memory Collector has been able to pass it.

Of course, there is a lot of information about this level scene, and there are several versions of the strategy. None of them can guide the Memory Keeper to pass the level directly. Most of the information and content are incomplete. You can refer to it, but you must not copy it.

If you copy it mindlessly, the result will be rebirth on the next cycle day.

Qiu Kui has never been here, but she has heard of this place and knows the name of this level scene, which is called "Starting Point and End Point".

"I believe you have all heard of this scene, so I won't introduce it in detail. The first floor is the starting point, and the roof is the end point. Whoever can reach the end point first will pass the level." Luo Xi glanced at everyone: "The task I have given you is to get from the starting point to the end point. If you have any questions, you can raise them now, or you can choose not to participate."

At that moment, a person who was collecting memories asked, "Why do you want to challenge this level?"

"Because this is my order." Luo Xi replied.

Tough, and also, has a sense of disrespect.

Some people immediately felt dissatisfied.

In addition, because Luo Xi said that one could choose to refuse to participate, someone immediately said that he would not participate.

"Anything else?" Luo Xi didn't seem angry at all, he asked in a flat tone.

Next, another person chose to withdraw.

The rest of the people didn't say anything, but it was definitely not a completely voluntary mentality.

"According to the reward mechanism of this level scene, if you reach the finish line successfully, you can get a high reward. Because this scene has a ranking mechanism, the person who reaches the finish line in the shortest time can get an extra reward." Hearing Luo Xi's words, those who had chosen to agree to participate in this level scene were stunned.

Obviously, this information is only known to those who have passed the customs.

Someone couldn't help but ask: "So, you passed the level?"

"Yes, I have passed the level." Luo Xi answered with certainty.

"In other words, you plan to use this level scenario to test our comprehensive abilities, and then assign different positions and responsibilities based on our strengths?"

"That's what I meant."

"I understand. Since you can pass the level, leader, we are of course willing to give it a try." Some people are already eager to try. After all, if Luo Xi can pass the level, they can theoretically do so too. After all, they will have the opportunity to join Luo Xi's team. At present, they are all at the top of the pyramid among the Shiyi people.

In other words, they belong to the elite and have a strong sense of superiority and self-confidence.

Even the two people who had withdrawn before expressed their willingness to give it a try.

"In that case, let's start. I'll wait for you at the finish line." After Luo Xi finished speaking, he took the lead and walked into the entrance of the scene, a threshold that looked like a security gate.

Looking inside from the door frame, it was dark and nothing could be seen clearly. So when Luo Xi walked in, the others immediately lost track of him.

Almost the next moment, a quick and confident master of the Shiyi people rushed forward and entered almost at the same time as Luo Xi.

Of course, they may not be truly "confident", they just want to take a shortcut.

Because as long as they follow Luo Xi, at least they will have a reference for the upward route.

There are many people in Shiyi who have this idea, but Qiu Kui did not follow the crowd.

She was one of the last people to enter that door frame.

It's not that she's pretending to be cool, but because she's a [Shadow], she has a stronger sense of darkness and shadows than others.

For example, she could see that behind the door frame that looked like a security door, there was an extremely terrifying thing, huge, and alive.

This feeling is terrible.

The door was like the mouth of this huge monster. Entering through the door meant entering the body of this huge monster.

It's a bit like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth.

As for what that huge monster was, what it looked like, and how big it was, she couldn't tell.

Now she was hesitating whether to get into the mouth of this huge creature.

If you don't know some things, you won't have so many concerns.

There were fewer and fewer people left in Shiyi, and many people chose to enter. Qiu Kui finally made a decision.

"If he can do it, so can I."

Thinking of this, Qiu Kui walked into the threshold of what seemed to her like the entrance to hell.

At that moment, it was like entering a pitch-black elevator.

There was almost no light, and the door frame behind him disappeared, like a one-way door that could only allow entry but not exit.

Qiu Kui was not afraid. She took out a card and quietly activated it, releasing [Shadow Guard] as a means of defense for herself.

The dark confinement space did not last too long. In less than ten seconds, Qiu Kui noticed a faint light in front of her. She walked over and found a half-open door. After pushing it open, she entered a hall.

"This place doesn't feel like the stomach of some giant creature at all." Qiu Kui muttered to himself.

But, it just doesn't look like it.

She was very sure about what she had seen before, and could only say that everything now was a disguise.

And she soon discovered another strange and unreasonable thing.

"What about the others who entered before?"

The hall was empty, with only her there.

She looked around and found that this place looked like the first floor of an ordinary building with glass windows all around, but the scenery outside was terrifying. Attached to the surrounding glass were countless barriers of flesh and blood.

It felt like this place was swallowed by some huge monster, and all I could see was the scene inside the monster's stomach.

This feeling is extremely depressing, especially when it leads to some kind of "being swallowed" association, which makes people extremely uncomfortable.

Although Qiu Kui has never been to this "starting point and end point" checkpoint scene, he has heard a lot of information about it.

The most common piece of information among these is the discovery of "routes".

It can be said that this is the most difficult point in the entire scene.

After a brief investigation, Qiu Kui knew what the problem was. There was no upward passage on the first floor. The elevator was blocked and could not be opened at all. As for the stairs, there seemed to be some kind of collapse here, and there was a pile of impenetrable steel bars and concrete, making it impossible to get in.

In other words, this is a starting point with absolutely no access to the stairs.

Many people are trapped at this level, and finally run out of time and exit with regret.
