Chapter 30 Corpse
In the chaotic group of corpses, the three of them were more or less injured to varying degrees.
"Do you remember that in your stories, did you really mention that you had personal contact with ghosts?"
He tapped his forehead with his index finger, prompting them to recall their script.
Jiang Yuan quickly read his script at a glance and said in a daze: "Indeed... no."
"Yes, even though my story mentioned that I have been haunted by a female ghost since I was a child, the only time I really saw her was after I entered the soul-sealing formation!"
"You once said that spiritual vision can see things that ordinary people cannot see, but neither Luo Xin nor I have spiritual vision. How can we still see the female ghost clearly after leaving the soul-sealing formation?"
After hearing his words, Jiang Yuan reacted.
"Well, it stands to reason that without spiritual vision, it is impossible for you to still be able to see the female ghost just now! This means..."
"It means that we have died a long time ago! Now we are just surviving in the form of souls!!"
Linard directly pointed out the conspiracy hidden under all the fog and said loudly.
"Ah?! Are we dead?"
Luo Xin exclaimed in disbelief. It was difficult for her to accept such an ending as her whole heart was counting on Li Fa. Her mood, which was already at its lowest point, became even more gloomy.
"... He died before he even understood the truth of this world..."
"To die like this, I don't even understand... Should I die as "Luo Xin" or as myself?"
She spoke bitterly, and quickly dodged the two rows of teeth of a corpse monster, knocking it to the ground with a soft uppercut.
"the truth……"
Thinking of these two words, Linnard's tone remained unchanged, like a piece of ice: "No matter what, we will die. If you have played the game, to explain it in terms, this is a plot kill!"
"Don't be so sad. We are just "dying" as characters in the play. This is a necessary process. After completing the script, there is a high probability that we will be resurrected intact."
He comforted Luo Xin, who widened her eyes in confusion and blinked her eyelashes.
"Can it still be played like this?" Her tone was full of uncertainty: "But, doesn't it mean that death in the script is real death?"
"Yes, there is such a thing."
Confirming her words, Lynard explained eloquently: "I think this situation is very rare in the entire script space. The only reasonable explanation is that this script world has been artificially modified!"
"The original script is very likely that we will go to kill Xu Tian separately, but only one person succeeds. In the end, we have to find the real culprit who killed Xu Tian among all the people. This should be a common scene in most script worlds. I don't have it.
Is that wrong?"
He glanced at Jiang Yuan who was fighting hard.
"...Yes, according to my experience, this should be the direction of the next plot."
"But something happened here, Xu Tian died, he died before all of us could do anything to him!
Moreover, even we all died due to unknown reasons, and the plot reached a dead end where the team was inevitably destroyed!
This is an ending that cannot be saved by human power. The best explanation is that the plot has been artificially modified, and Xu Tian’s death was also caused by him!"
Jiang Yuan still shook his head unwillingly and asked: "But it is too conjecture to draw this conclusion just because you can see Xu Tian."
"I understand your concerns." Linnard said sternly: "It is true that this detail cannot explain anything, but when I talked to Xu Tian just now, he said, "You are here to seek revenge from me. This is the first time I can kill you.
, I will kill you a second time."
In his words, the spider ghost and I exist as the same subject, which sounds okay at first glance.
This is because at first I thought that the revenge he was referring to was that he had imprisoned me in the soul-sealing formation, but combined with the "kill you once" later, I couldn't think so."
The attacks of the corpse group became more and more rapid, and the physical strength of the three of them also plummeted, so he had to slow down his speaking speed.
“Since I was with the female ghost he killed when he said this, I thought he only meant the spider ghost.
But after thinking about it carefully, he decided on the matter of revenge between me and the female ghost!
The apparent grudge between me and him is nothing more than the Soul Sealing Array. Do I need to take revenge just for being imprisoned in the Soul Sealing Array?
Obviously it's not necessary, so the real "reason for my revenge" can only be——
He killed me!"
His words penetrated into the ears of Luo and Jiang like thunder, and their already anxious hearts couldn't help but believe a bit of Linnard's words.
“Phew—it’s finally here, and now it’s time to verify my idea!”
Relying on his brain power working at full capacity, Linnard tore open a hole in the circle of corpses that he could never break through, and reached the end point - the mourning hall!
Half of his arms were pressed against the wooden door of the mourning hall, his back facing the two of them, his face expressionless.
The air seemed to freeze suddenly.
Although they didn't understand why he was so persistent in the mourning hall from the beginning, Luo and Jiang knew that there should indeed be very important evidence inside.
And now, it’s time to reveal it!
"Squeak——"
Reach out and push hard, and the door opens!
Linnard's figure had already gotten in, and Luo Xin and Jiang Yuan were not as anxious as others. They pushed through the corpses and entered the mourning hall together.
Jiang Yuan was the last person to come in. His face flushed red. He kicked away the corpse monster that was following him. He closed the wooden door with a bang and pressed it with both hands. He asked loudly without looking back: "
How about it, do you have any clues?!"
"ah--!"
The one who answered him was Luo Xinna who had already heard the familiar scream, but this time the scream was more miserable and terrifying than before!
Jiang Yuan turned his head and looked in the direction of the scream. Everything he saw made him fall into a trance for a moment. His remaining sanity was shaken crazily, and he almost fell into endless madness!
I saw that the decoration in the mourning hall was similar to before, still in the gloomy and dark tones, and there were no signs of the tables, chairs and benches being moved.
Only four long-dead corpses were still sitting in a square shape on the ground. Their faces were blurred, but their clothes were exactly the same as what he and others were wearing! They looked like they had been dead for a long time!!
"That...that...that...that..."
Luo Xin's upper and lower teeth were chattering and she couldn't utter a complete sentence.
Linard carefully observed the four corpses and then ran to the coffin. Inside lay a corpse wearing a Taoist robe and a Taoist crown.
He quietly looked at the lying corpses and said without looking back: "Those are our bodies. To be precise, they are corpses."
"Ah..." Luo Xin shouted out of breath, and then she held in her breath and screamed at the top of her lungs: "Ah!!!!"
Jiang Yuan's eyes were also bloodshot, and all the clues proved the correctness of what Li Fa said, and he said in a trembling voice: "We are really dead... What is the method you just thought of that can help us complete it?"
This script?”
Linard closed his eyes slightly, frowned, and tapped his temple with his index finger.
"Indeed, I have already thought of a way to crack it. The key is to start with who set up this game.
Chapter completed!
