Chapter 043: Transaction with Mother (Part 2)
(Your eyes go dark.)
(You can't perceive anything.)
(You waited in the void for half an hour, and nothing happened.)
(You terminate the game.)
Gu Yi opened his eyes and touched his head in annoyance.
"How is this going?"
Gu Yi supported his chin and thought carefully.
This was the first time he encountered such a situation during a simulation.
Under normal circumstances, even if you trigger the instant death flag, your talent will deduce an instant death scene.
However, this time, he lost all consciousness, as if he had fallen into the void.
I waited in nothingness for half an hour, but still nothing happened.
"Calm down and think about the reasons."
Gu Yi let out a long sigh, thought silently, and summarized the clues he had just obtained.
1. The mother can be killed, and I have just deduced the safest and most effective way to kill her.
2. After killing the mother, you can take out a red access card from the doll.
3. Use the red access card to go to the inner world of the hospital, the third underground floor.
4. On the third underground floor, you will meet "me", that is, Toto, whose appearance is a replica of yourself.
5. After watching "Monster Attack" in Toto's cinema, you will fall into a void. That cinema does not seem to be a safe place.
Gu Yi recalled everything that had happened before, and wondered if there were any clues he had overlooked that prevented him from moving forward.
"No, this is the only way left."
Gu Yi shook his head firmly.
He had recalled all his experiences and all the deduced scenarios, and finally became convinced that the cinema on the third underground floor of the hospital was the only clue.
But……
Why do I feel lost in a state of emptiness when watching a movie?
No!
Not into nothingness.
Gu Yi suddenly figured out the key.
These days, Gu Yi has relied too much on his talent for infinite deduction, so much so that he has forgotten that his talent also has a great limitation.
——Infinite deduction, unable to deduce anything related to the "Weird World" system!
Whenever I make progress in the copy process and the system gives me rewards, infinite deduction cannot take these into account.
There is no way around it. After all, the talent of infinite deduction was given to him by the system of the strange world.
Just recall the style of the red access card and you will understand.
There is a live broadcast logo of "Weird World" painted on the front of the access card, which is a very obvious hint.
Gu Yi might not only have collected clues about the copy world in that movie theater on the third underground floor, but he might also have learned clues about the entire strange world, so he was unable to use his talent to deduce the details.
Gu Yi must go and explore that underground cinema in person.
"Phew, no big deal."
Gu Yi sighed, put on the bird-beak mask and walked out of the bathroom.
He first stole a box of pills and then hid them in his mother's body.
Then, he put on Toto's handmade mask and came to the secret room on the second underground floor with ease.
This time, Gu Yi met his mother in real life. Although he had met his mother many times, when they met face to face, Gu Yi still felt a sense of suffocation deep in his soul.
"Who are you? Why do you have Toto's mask?"
"It doesn't matter who I am." Gu Yi went straight to the point, "I can give you your body, but the prerequisite is that you must give me your doll."
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
The mother looked confused, and even the hair behind her flew strangely.
Gu Yi was not afraid at all. As long as he wore Toto's mask, his mother would not harm him.
Snapped--
Gu Yi took out his mother's body from his kangaroo pants, and his mother immediately panicked.
"This is... this is my body, I can feel it!"
"So, can we talk about terms?"
"I have nothing to talk to you about!"
Gu Yi sneered, stepped on the corpse, raised the hammer and put it on his mask, "I don't want to waste time talking to you, are you willing to exchange with me?"
"Wait, I agree!"
The mother immediately put away her intimidating aura and returned to her human form.
She felt very strange.
It was clearly the first time that I met this man, but it seemed like this man was not seeing me for the first time.
He always seemed to be able to predict his own actions in advance, and even knew his own inner thoughts clearly.
The mother felt that there was something fishy going on.
But she had to agree to the other party's request.
If he doesn't get his body back, he will be trapped here forever.
"One hand pays the other hand delivers the goods."
The mother threw out her doll.
Gu Yi caught the doll and then casually placed the body on the floor.
Gu Yi stuffed the doll into his pants and watched coldly as his mother swallowed his body.
"Ah, I finally regained my strength, I want to... kill you!"
The mother suddenly turned into a monster and stretched out her black claws towards Gu Yi.
Gu Yi stood there calmly, looking into his mother's eyes with a mocking smile.
"Why? Did you poison me?"
The mother held her stomach, fell to the ground, and gradually lost her strength.
She was foaming at the mouth, convulsing all over, and losing consciousness.
Gu Yi took out a hammer, ready to smash his mother's head .
"Good will be rewarded with good, and evil will be punished with evil. She wanted to kill me, but ended up being poisoned by drugs. She has already gotten the retribution she deserves, and there is no need for her to be so cruel again."
Gu Yi remembered the words on the mask and finally put away the hammer.
——In this copy, you must never do anything too bad.
Gu Yi tore open the doll, took out the red access card from it, and sure enough, he heard the system's prompt.
"You have collected a special plot item in the dungeon: the red access card."
"Your story exploration level has increased."
“The current exploration progress is 67%.”
"You can get a reward from the following three options."
"1. Your strength increases by 10%."
"2. Your agility increases by 10%."
"3. Your physical strength increases by 10%."
When Gu Yi saw the reward, his face immediately fell, "What bad luck! This is a puzzle dungeon, what's the point of improving my physical fitness? Why can't I be rewarded with mental strength?"
Gu Yi thought for a while and finally decided to increase his physical strength by 10%.
The next second, a white light flashed before Gu Yi's eyes, and he felt his body refreshed, as if his whole body was much more comfortable. Gu Yi lifted his clothes and took a look, and found that the black hair on his body had actually become less.
"I see. Improving my physical strength can also increase my resistance to disease. After all, my current condition is almost the same as being sick. It seems that improving my physical strength is the right choice."
Gu Yi breathed a long sigh of relief. He held the red access card in his hand and went to the nearest elevator.
