Chapter 614 How do dead people come back? (1 chapter left)

[My sister is carrying a doll...]

【Walk to the garden to see the flowers...】

[The baby is crying and calling for mommy...]

[The butterfly in the painting is laughing...]

[My sister is holding a doll...]

【Let’s go to the garden and play…】

The terrifying and weird nursery rhyme came from the overhead broadcast again.

The next moment, as the long ghost shadow passed under the two of them with a rustling sound, it rushed into Room 3 like lightning. Qin Shang, who was standing in the hall, had a hint of amusement on his face.

"really……"

Looking at the young man standing with his hands behind his back so calmly, there really was no sign of any danger approaching.

After seeing this scene, the fox-faced man who lost his ability to move and fell in a pool of blood felt as if a blockbuster bomb was thrown into his mind, as if something exploded in his head, with countless question marks floating in his mind and his face full of disbelief.

He didn't understand, he couldn't figure it out...

According to the statement of 'licking the cockroach's jade feet', if at this moment, the ones who entered the two rooms were all "shadows", and the ones who were originally in rooms 1 and 3 were also "shadows".

In those rooms in the field, there were only "shadows" in them from beginning to end.

Then... could it be that the one in front of me is his real self?

His pupils dilated and he stared with wide eyes at the young man next to him who was looking down at him with a cold expression.

He... is the real person who licks cockroach's feet?

But... this is the strangest part.

Logically speaking, players will be eliminated if the room does not have enough players.

But he himself would do the same. Wasn't he also a player who didn't have enough players in the room?

He didn't even enter the room...

Why, why didn’t that weird person attack him after he appeared?

They were both players who were eliminated in the second round of the game "Find Friends"... Why didn't that weirdo attack the "licking cockroach's feet" itself but ran to room 3 first?

"Ah, seeing your uncomfortable expression as if you had eaten shit, I'm almost constipated..."

The next moment, he met the fox-faced man's confused eyes.

Qin Shang smiled and was still merciful, intending to let him die with peace of mind, so he raised his hand and whistled.

"Who told you that players can't use skills, so weirdness is not allowed?"

Hu~

A clear whistle sounded, and then...

"Abba!"

A black shadow as big as a washbasin suddenly fell from the ceiling and landed on the ground with a plop.

The fox-faced man opened his mouth wide and looked carefully.

That…that turned out to be a tiny baby.

The baby's appearance was extremely cute. Apart from not having the healthy, delicate complexion of a human baby, his demeanor and movements were no different from those of a real human baby. The little guy was particularly affectionate towards Qin Shang. As soon as he appeared, he cried "Aba" and hugged Qin Shang's thighs tightly, refusing to let go, and began to rub his little head, which didn't have much fur, against Qin Shang's legs.

"This...is this your prop?"

"Did you use props to make that monster give up attacking you?"

"But why? Why can you use items when everyone's character cards are [sealed]?"

The fox-faced man's pale face was filled with anger, as if he had encountered a cheating enemy while playing a game.

If Shenlu didn't have a so-called reporting mechanism, he would have wanted to say it was unfair with a look of grievance on his face.

This is fucking unfair, this kid is cheating, teacher...

However, after hearing this, Qin Shang shrugged his shoulders and admitted it directly without hiding anything.

"It's my item, but I didn't summon it during this round of the game. He was dragged into this instance by himself. We didn't come in together!"

"So I was able to communicate with him because he was already in the copy."

"This item of mine has a skill called [Bewitching]. Within five minutes, the person who is [Bewitched] will absolutely trust me. So I let it [Bewitched] the murderous long-necked monster, making it believe that he and I are companions. Then, as you can see, the monster walked past me and did not attack me..."

The fox-faced man looked dissatisfied.

It’s… it’s that simple?

It really is that simple.

Qin Shang shrugged.

But this was not his original plan.

Before this round of the game started, when Qin Shang was communicating with the "shadow", he did not feel the presence of the little ghost baby until he walked out of Room 3 again.

That’s right, in fact, the conclusion that the fox-faced man came to last time was correct.

At this moment, the young man in front of him, who was standing alone in the monastery hall, was the real one 'licking the cockroach's feet'.

As for the Qin Shangs in rooms 1, 3, 4, and 5.

Sorry, sorry, it's all Jackie Chan, ugh, "Shadow"...

Just now, after the first round of the game ended, the person who walked out of Room 3 was Qin Shang himself!

His original plan was to wait until each team killed one person and then choose one of the two.

But at the same time, bring all the other "shadows" into the room where you made your choice.

At that time, there is no need to worry about being beaten up by the other eight players!

It's so funny. Indeed, during the game, all players and "shadows" cannot use divine skills.

But the "shadow" is not dead, and he will not just watch those people beat him up.

In a five-on-eight situation, if the goal is not to defeat the opponent, it is just to let the four "shadows" protect yourself.

Qin Shang was still quite confident...

However, when the plan was halfway through, Qin Shang suddenly felt the presence of the little ghost baby, so he changed his plan and decided to end the game in this round.

The next moment, the fox-faced man squeezed out a word.

"Then why are you playing with the Bad Guys' handwritten order? I thought, I thought..."

"Do you think this is a smokescreen I released, deliberately letting a "shadow" hold the Bad Man's handwritten instructions, so that you will doubt that this is my real body?"

"But don't you think this is stupid? It's like trying to cover up one's own fault. It's like telling you, trust me, I am the real 'licking cockroach feet'."

"On the other hand, isn't it a disguised way of conveying a message to you that this is my 'shadow'? So you think I am a 'shadow' because I have been holding the Bad Man's handwritten instructions and pretending to be the real one?"

Hearing this, Qin Shang answered immediately and glanced at the fox-faced man with interest.

The fox-faced man said nothing, but his mouth kept twitching.

Bitch!

He dared to guarantee that Qin Shang himself had this purpose in playing with the Bad Guys' handwritten edict.

He disguised himself as a "shadow" who was deliberately exposed to everyone as if he wanted to pretend to be his real self, so that everyone would believe that he was a "shadow"!

The fox-faced man gritted his teeth.

"So your purpose is..."

"Oh! This has nothing to do with you."

"Aren't you just curious?"

"What……"

The mystery in the fox-faced man's mind was half solved.

Since this kid has an item that he can use, and this item has not been [sealed], or in other words, it was not teleported synchronously with him when he entered this copy, then if the character card is [sealed], he can no longer use the Divine Road skills and open the inventory.

But I have already entered the dungeon, and I have my own weirdness in the dungeon... It seems reasonable for others to communicate the weirdness of this item. If this skill itself requires weirdness to be performed and it is not the player, it is indeed reasonable.

“The number of people!”

Qin Shang put his hands in his pockets, looking disdainful.

"Although I let the little ghost baby [bewitched] the weirdo and made him think that I was his companion and gave up attacking me, there is only five minutes in total, so when he comes to his senses later..."

"You have to die too!?"

Hearing this, a gleam of light appeared on the pale face of the fox-faced man.

He could feel his life slipping away, and the last bit of time he had left was probably just to last until the end of this round of the game.

If I could see with my own eyes the subordinates of the 'swordsman in white' on the road to the underworld one second before the end of the game, and they were licking the cockroach's feet so smugly in front of me at this moment, I would have ended up like me and become the ghosts of this dungeon.

He felt somewhat comforted.

But after hearing this, Qin Shang sneered and shook his head.

"But when he comes to his senses, he will be surprised to find that there are ten people in this copy, so he will automatically give up attacking me."

"Is there any necessary connection between the fact that we have gathered ten people and the fact that you did not pass the game according to the rules this time? If the time for [Bewitching] is up..."

"Will you not be punished? Why?"

The fox-faced man looked bewildered.

Perhaps because he was aware that his impending death was inevitable, he did not hate Qin Shang as much.

In addition to the unwillingness and reluctance to accept, there is also a kind of inexplicable fear.

This kid is really scary. If he had the chance to start over again, he wouldn't want to meet Qin Shang again.

Now he just wanted to die with a clear mind, and only his thirst for knowledge remained...

By the way, doesn’t this kid worry about capsizing in the ditch?

"It's not that I won't be punished. I guess there will be other punishments, but I won't die."

Qin Shang looked calm and said lightly;

"Because think about it, why did this confrontation game appear in the first place?"

When these words came out, the fox-faced man was startled.

"Because the number of players exceeds the limit of the number of players that the main plot of the dungeon can accommodate!"

Qin Shang nodded slightly.

"bingo!"

“That’s why!”

"When I entered the dungeon, I was assigned an identity in the main storyline. I am Wu Shiqi's lover."

Hearing this, the fox-faced man's face twitched and he immediately retorted.

"So what? You're not trying to tell me that you can't die just because you've been assigned an identity? Doesn't that mean that according to what you said, the first ten players who enter this dungeon and are assigned an identity will not die?"

"Is this the reason why you think you won't die?"

"Isn't that a bit far-fetched?"

Hearing this, Qin Shang rolled his eyes, almost rolling his eyes to the sky, and finally glanced at him with disdain.

"Or you're stupid!"

"Any player who has been assigned an identity in this dungeon will die. In this competitive game, there is no such thing as not dying just because you have been assigned an identity related to the main quest in advance."

"But let me ask you, if you die, someone will need to inherit your identity..."

"So what? You mean that apart from you, no one else can be Wu Shiqi's lover?"

The fox-faced man sneered again.

"?"

Qin Shang was also speechless and almost laughed out of anger.

Why is this guy always thinking about Wu Shiqi's lover?

"There are no players left, idiot..."

The next moment, Qin Shang cleared his throat and pointed to Room 3 where screams were coming from.

"Over there, eight people died!"

"Later, the eight people over there will also die..."

He pointed his finger in the direction of Room 1 again.

"Count him, you, and the two people who died at the beginning."

As he spoke, he pointed at the body of the thin man lying at the door of Room 3, and the bloody bodies of the two players who died in the first round of the game behind him.

"You four, plus the sixteen in the two rooms over there, that makes twenty dead."

"I can die, but the problem is, if I die, there will only be 21 people left in this copy. Who will inherit my identity in this game?"

"After I died, there weren't enough players!"

"Does it mean that the Divine Path needs to teleport another player whose points have been reset to zero into this instance?"

The fox-faced man didn't know if he had taken the wrong medicine, or if he only had one thought in his mind.

That is, he hoped that when he died, this kid could be buried with him. Although there seemed to be a flash of electric shock passing through his mind along with these words, he still refuted it immediately.

"So what? Why are you so sure that the Divine Path will not teleport another player into this instance?"

"Because it's not fair!"

Qin Shang grinned, his smile bright.

"All the players in this instance have experienced competitive games. In order to make up the number of players, a new player is teleported in directly when the main storyline begins. This person has not experienced this round of competitive games."

"In other words, it's like someone signed up for a talent show, but was not notified during the elimination round and didn't even participate in it. But when it came to the finals, the organizers found that there were not enough contestants, so they temporarily airdropped this person into the finals. Do you think this is fair to other contestants?"

"Then he can also select a popular contestant from among the eliminated contestants to return to the finals..."

Halfway through his words, the fox-faced man was stunned before he could finish his argument.

Yes.

This is how you can do it in talent shows!

But the problem is that in this competitive game, players who have been eliminated in the knockout round cannot come back.

How do the dead come back?
