Chapter 453: All Are Bubbles (1)
It was late to say, but fast in action.
The whole process took only about a minute.
"I lied."
Lin Xuan inexplicably said a sentence, so the three all looked at Qiu Yinong.
"Liar-Slayer·Wheel of Time!"
When the light returned, the four appeared on the bus, and Qiu Yinong immediately retracted her skill.
Chen Ran was somewhat confused, and asked Qiu Yinong uncertainly: "Are you sure you just used Wheel of Time?"
Qiu Yinong nodded.
The four got off the bus and leaned against it.
When the light returned, there wasn't a single change in their surroundings, so the three looked at Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan was somewhat guilty, walked onto the bus by himself, hid on the bus, and spoke a lie.
"Liar-Slayer·Magic Cube World!"
Soon after, he got off the bus with a gloomy face and said to the three: "Out of the six spaces, the two spaces with slow time flow are also in the Instance."
The four began to summarize.
First, Wheel of Time couldn't reverse back to before 【Dungeon Teleportation】.
Two possibilities:
One: they were unconscious on the bus for five minutes or more.
Two: this was indeed an Instance, and influenced by the Instance mechanism, Wheel of Time couldn't reverse back to before entering the Instance.
Secondly, Jiang Zhe's skill unexpectedly didn't reverse the 【Dungeon Teleportation】.
Two possibilities:
One: Jiang Zhe was fake, so his skill was also fake.
Two: it was still the Instance mechanism.
What needed to be noted here was that the Priority of the Instance mechanism was very high. Simply put, for example, when Qiu Yinong matched for an Instance, if she used Wheel of Time at the very first moment she entered the Instance, she couldn't return to the 18th Level.
Similarly.
Jiang Zhe's skill couldn't affect the player outside the Instance who used the 【Dungeon Teleportation】 skill either.
But, Chen Ran was different. Eternal Kingdom could act on the four people affected by 【Dungeon Teleportation】, dispel the 【Dungeon Teleportation】 existing on them, and after they returned to the 18th Level's Ancient Tower, continue to dispel existing skills.
Finally, it was Lin Xuan. He should have gotten on the bus to speak a lie.
Two possibilities:
One: Jiang Zhe's skill reversed his skill, so the Lin Xuan just now was Lin Xuan's True Form. He had to lie to be able to create the rest of the spaces again. He was afraid of being Judged, which was why he got on the bus to quietly lie.
Two: Lin Xuan was also fake, and he was cooperating with the fake Jiang Zhe to put on an act. After all, only by making everyone think his skill was reversed would everyone believe Jiang Zhe was real.
Not only did everyone have two possibilities.
They also couldn't escape this Instance.
This was awkward!
The four all realized that perhaps the upcoming battle royale was inevitable.
To be safe, Chen Ran touched the bus behind him, and squatted down to touch the ground.
'They are all physical entities.'
He touched the wall again, and also learned from Lin Xuan to pick up a stone and smash the electrical box.
'They are all physical entities.'
Shortly after, the four walked towards the small building. Along the way, Chen Ran with itchy hands touched everywhere.
Only after confirming that this so-called Instance was not a virtual world covering did he feel relieved.
Arriving at the first floor.
The light screen appeared.
【Reincarnation Apartment!】
【Players: Nine in total.】
【Clear condition: Only four people remaining.】
Chen Ran lit a cigarette.
'The Instances I encountered in the past all had clear clues. For example, the time with Geng Hao, as long as the us generated earlier lied, then the us generated later would come with lies.'
'But this time...'
'Fusion Mental State!'
A burst of hostility flashed in Chen Ran's eyes. He couldn't help but recall everything he had encountered in the Hell Great Escape. Illusions and reality, they were simply bullying them, this group of players who hadn't severed their Ego.
'Fuck, so it was like this!'
'However, I must verify it first...'
"Everyone, come out!" His voice wasn't loud, as if he was afraid of something.
Not long after.
Three people came down from upstairs: Chen Ran, Qiu Yinong, and Jiang Zhe.
After a while.
Another two people came down from upstairs, Chen Ran and Lin Xuan, maintaining their vigilance.
'As expected, the first two batches of people are the ones who cleared the different versions of the actor Secret Room.'
Thinking up to this point.
Chen Ran summoned the Liar-Slayer panel, looking at the more than 3,500 points in the panel.
He put away the panel.
Chen Ran dangled his cigarette, looking coldly at everyone on the first floor: "Everyone... are you ready? The game starts now!"
After saying that, without any warning, he went to touch the Jiang Zhe who was close at hand, and his hand clipped through.
Passing right through Jiang Zhe, Jiang Zhe disappeared.
Immediately after, Chen Ran drew his gun and aimed at the equally close Lin Xuan:
"You lied."
Bang. A gunshot rang out, Lin Xuan died, turning into a burly man with a Third Eye tattooed on his forehead (The Judge). Chen Ran picked up the Point Card on The Judge's body.
The tactile feel of the Point Card was not bad.
At this point.
Of the third batch of four people who arrived at the small building, only Chen Ran and Qiu Yinong were left.
He looked at the other two Chen Rans, ultimately resting his gaze on the Chen Ran from the first batch.
"Do you have anything you want to say?"
Hearing this, the Chen Ran who had arrived in the Instance with Lin Xuan in the first batch was startled at first, and then he asked back with a smile: "What do you want me to say?"
Seeing this, Chen Ran asked the Chen Ran among the three from the second batch who arrived:
"Do you have anything you want to say?"
The Chen Ran from the second batch, dangling a cigarette, extended his hand with a smile and said: "Let me see the Point Card in your hand."
Chen Ran handed it to him.
He rubbed the Point Card: "Not bad, the tactile feel I mean."
Shortly after, these two Chen Rans walked seemingly randomly on the first floor, but they eventually blocked the entrance to the stairs going up.
"Still not going upstairs?"
The Qiu Yinong from the third batch recalled the Jiang Zhe who had clipped through just now, then glanced at the corpse of The Judge who had impersonated Lin Xuan, and finally rested her gaze on the hand of one of the Chen Rans at the stairwell.
'So that's how it is!'
She ran upstairs without hesitation. Seeing this, the others wanted to chase, but were blocked by the two Chen Rans at the stairwell.
"What's the meaning of this?" The Chen Ran from the first batch had a dark expression.
"No, with your IQ, you still want to pretend to be Chen Ran? Are you trying to be funny?" The Chen Ran at the stairwell dangling a cigarette sneered.
The Chen Ran from the second batch also looked at Qiu Yinong and Jiang Zhe, sneering: "Your IQ is also somewhat lacking."
"First of all, the three of us were the second batch to arrive here. For the one with Jiang Zhe's appearance, if you were Jiang Zhe, you should have tried using your skill to see if you could Reverse the Future, but you didn't, so I knew you were fake."
"Secondly, it's you, the one looking like Qiu Yinong. Why didn't you use your skill at the very beginning either? Don't tell me your skill really needs someone to provide a lie?"
He pointed at the two: "I knew all along that you were fakes. I just wasn't sure if I was a clone myself."
Hearing this, the expressions of Qiu Yinong and Jiang Zhe from the second batch were extremely ugly.
The Chen Ran from the first batch looked at the Chen Ran at the stairwell. He knew he was exposed, so he inquired: "I want to know, how did you determine that I am not Chen Ran?" Saying this, his gaze fell on the hand of one Chen Ran: "Is it just because of this Point Card?"
The two Chen Rans smiled: "Chen Ran's skill is very special. He can determine whether he is a clone or not through a Point Card, or to be exact, whether he is a skill clone or not."
