In this nightmare, the so-called forgetting is a completely random thing.

I don't know when it will happen, who it will happen to, which memory will be forgotten... In short, this is a matter of luck.

At least bald head and flower arms, even if they have come to this nightmare, they never know what kind of process the loss of memory is in this nightmare.

That would even be automatically rationalized!

It's like an illusion, he has lost the memory that they have been to the "treasure house", but to him, the situation does not seem strange.

Even if he lost that memory, he still remembered that they started from the starting point and were divided into three groups. He and Fei walked the southern road and met the strange survivor.

Then they came to the building to meet the other missionaries, and then they saw a certain survivor who fell from the building, and then they talked with the bookstore owner...

Yes, in his memory, they did these things in the past hour.

Treasure Vault? food? He never remembered that they were looking for it.

They obviously went directly to the building to meet up with other taskers, didn't they?

When asked what the elusive memory was, Fei involuntarily raised his eyebrows.

She realized a terrible problem-if the amnesia in this nightmare were not sudden and would make people notice strange, then maybe they all have amnesia at the moment, but they don't know it?

This will bring additional communication costs, just like this time, the face is inexplicable, if it weren't for Fei's prestige in front of him, he would have been very impatient.

He didn't think there was anything wrong with his memory—what amnesia? Where does he have amnesia?

Such a natural thought and performance made Fei feel a deeper fear.

If the amnesia is random and the candidates are also random, then the more the nightmare develops, the information they are looking for will be lost piece by piece, and the information each tasker will get is not equal, or even they will simply Forget important information neatly...

They will be jealous of each other. The chaotic situation will make them unable to focus on nightmares at all. They will search for their lost memories in vain.

...Fei knew that in this nightmare, their memory would be problematic. But she had never thought that it was in such a form.

Fei sighed wearily: "Let's go to the playground first. On the way, maybe we should check our memories..."

At this moment, the collector suddenly interrupted her: "However, since this has already happened, it is better to ask the two first movers.

"Did you encounter the same situation in your last nightmare? Why didn't you say it?"

Hua's arms opened his mouth to explain, but the bald head said coldly: "I have no obligation to tell you all, am I?" He glanced across every tasker present, and then smiled contentedly, "Besides , There is nothing to say about it. When you really lose your memory, of course you will know about it."

Fei said impatiently, "Stop arguing-okay, kids?"

The collector and the bald glared at her at the same time.

Fei bit his lip, his tone a little depressed: "So, behave like a man, okay?"

The two men stopped talking.

Mu Jiashi never intervened in the conflict between them, and at this time he said thoughtfully: "Perhaps we can try other methods?"

"what?"

Mu Jiashi said, "Me and him," he pointed to the collector, "We bypassed the amusement park and came from a little south. We passed by a non-staple food store, and there were a few pens in it... "

Having said that, Fei had already understood what he meant, and his eyes lit up immediately.

But before she could say anything, the collector suddenly changed his expression: "What?! When have we been to a non-staple food store?"

Mu Jiashi glanced at him, his expression did not change, he said: "You can find it in your pocket, I gave you half a ham."

The collector really fumbled his pocket, took out half a ham, and stared at the thing for a while. His expression made people immediately think of a sentence: What the **** is this? !

But the collector's face changed back in the next second, and he smiled and said, "Oh, it's interesting..." Then, he chewed the half of the ham and ate it slowly, "It's really interesting. ..."

Memory... He whispered the word softly.

Fei glanced at him, and then said, "Let’s find food. Five minutes later, we will go to the playground."

Several people scattered and walked away.

Fei He Wu Jian walked to a place slightly far away from the other taskers.

Wu Jian said bitterly: "I really forgot...? It's not right, I really didn't feel that there was something wrong with my memory, and I don't even know when I forgot it."

Feimian said without changing his expression: "Look for food first. Also, the human brain has always been magical."

His face changed utterly.

He hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "You mean..." He swallowed nervously, and subconsciously looked around nervously, as if something was peeping at them. He whispered, "What about us? Is it about entering the narrow building?"

Fei looked at him calmly for a while, and then said, "The groaning in your stomach has already noisy my ears."

Unexpectedly: "..."

He smirked and hurried to find food.

Fei also started looking for food. She turned over some rocks and found a small bag of biscuits, then opened it and ate it. As she ate, she couldn't help but think about unspeakable things.

About how they entered the narrow building.

...No one has that memory, just like a mysterious and weird collective amnesia incident.

Some taskers said that they are already in the narrow building now, so just focus on the moment.

Some taskers say that they don't want to face these things, they dare not. If you can forget such a terrible thing, then they would rather lose your memory.

Some taskers said that they should not remember, right? The possible behind-the-scenes players can move so many humans into a game silently, so how can they not act on their memories?

Some taskers said that they have no way of knowing the truth at all, so give up.

But Fei and Wu Jian, including the quests behind them who want to know the truth, will never be able to let this matter go.

Why do they lose their memory? Why did they enter the narrow building? Why is the cycle of nightmares and death repeated forever in such a dark place?

Fei swallowed the last biscuit and clapped his hands.

She squeezed her hand and thought with disdain—the cowards. Those who don't want to face the truth, just want to turn themselves into zombies and fools in front of ostriches, cowards.

She is not like this.

She will always chase the truth. If she can't learn the truth about Zhailou in this life, then she will die.

Fei closed her eyes and sighed long. Afterwards, she noticed the time and went to join the other taskers.

According to Mu Jiashi's proposal, they first went to the non-staple food store and found the few pens.

They want to write down the clues they have already gained in case they are forgotten.

Flower Arm secretly looked at his eldest brother. Without speaking, he could only watch the group of taskers tossing peacefully, even though he was muttering in his heart: It's useless at all...

But they found the pen but not the paper. They searched over and over in the non-staple food store, wasting a lot of time, and finally Fei had to say: "Go to the playground first. The paper problem will be discussed later."

So they leaned upwards from the south and headed for the playground.

At this time, Xu Beijin and Dai Wu had already arrived at the playground.

The two of them were speechless.

Finally, Dai Wu said jokingly: "Why are you so silent?"

Xu Beijin glanced at him and said, "I'm thinking."

Dai Wu raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you curious about this nightmare again?"

Xu Bei hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

Dai Wu showed some subtle expressions, and then said: "This nightmare...to be honest, I have never seen the owner of the nightmare, so I don't know what the situation is like. Anyway...this place really looks like the ruins after the end. Yes, including... the actors."

He stood still, looking around the surrounding ruins, his eyes flashed with complex emotions.

Xu Beijin also stood there. He heard the whistling wind, as if blowing from a farther distance, from the world outside the white mist. However, these human beings living in the mist have never known what the outside world is like or what it has become.

He closed his dry eyes and let out a sigh in his heart.

They didn't stand for long and walked directly into the playground.

Dai Wu actually came to tell him to change shifts... so to speak.

The group of survivors gathered in the playground has now formed a special organization. The leader is the black-robed middle-aged man Xu Beijin once saw in the live broadcast room.

This group of survivors believe that humans are the impurity of the earth. The so-called "doomsday" is actually a divine punishment given by the gods in order to punish overly indulgent human beings.

They practice self-denial, forbearance, and abstinence, and live a life like an ascetic on the ruins after the end, hoping to wash away their sins and gain detachment.

...Religion in the last days. It can even be called a cult. Xu Bei thought to himself.

This group of survivors are generally centered on the playground, but they also radiate their power outward, almost controlling the ruins in the nightmare.

The building is the farthest fortress of this group of people. The reason why that bookstore can exist is to leave a remote bridgehead, an outpost.

In addition, the building was also used for executions—that is, the man who was pushed downstairs as seen by the taskers.

According to the memory provided by the main brain, the "priests" of this playground will gather once a week, which is the scene Xu Beijin saw from the live broadcast room.

At the assembly, they will conduct a heresy trial. If the result of the trial is passed by all members, then the "betrayer" who became a heresy will be punished by falling, that is, being pushed down from the roof of the building.

It was a murder, but this group of survivors were accustomed to it.

Every week, after the execution, there will be a change of guard at the bookstore.

Xu Beijin thought in his heart that this behavior was to prevent the people in the bookstore from rebelling, so he had to change someone over after a while.

But after all, all this is just the background setting of this nightmare.

A group of extremes triggered by the doomsday, trials, executions, changing of guards, penalties for falling... But what does this mean for this nightmare?

Xu Bei's eyes were deep, and under the leadership of Dai Wu, he walked to the depths of the playground and read the lines step by step and numbly according to the instructions of the master, that is, to report some information about the bookstore and the building.

... God knows the meaning of these lines, is it written by the master?

The audience was laughing and joking, and thought this scene was very interesting.

But Xu Beijin felt that there was a lifeless, gloomy and weird atmosphere in the playground. He suddenly realized when he saw the gloomy eyes of the middle-aged man in black robe.

That's why Dai Wuhui said that this place resembles post-apocalyptic ruins-including the actors. They seem to have completely entered the scene, they seem to have truly become the survivors of the doomsday, the crazy followers of the men in black robes.

Xu Bei is full of grief.

After he reported dryly about the past week, the man in the black robe calmly let him out. When Xu Beijin stared at him, at that moment, Xu Beijin doubted whether the man in front of him was in the play.

Did he become the lunatic who shouted "Humanity is the impurity of the earth"?

But his eyes were still sober, calm, and even with a simple sadness.

The gloomy feeling still permeated his body, but it seemed that at that moment, when he realized that Xu Beijin and Dai Wu were about to leave, he seemed to relax a little, and then exposed his original face.

Only three of them are in this small house. This once seemed to be the ticket office of the haunted house, but now it has become the residence of this middle-aged man.

So after hesitating for a moment, Xu Bei asked him: "About this nightmare..."

The middle-aged man changed back to his original appearance the moment Xu Beijin spoke, and he was taken aback when Xu Beijin uttered the word nightmare.

He was silent for a while, and then said: "Don't come here to mix things up. Those actors are crazy." His voice was low and hoarse, and he laughed hoarsely, "Humanity is the impurity of the earth, maybe, That’s right."

Xu Bei hesitated for a moment, confirming that this man had abandoned himself, and reluctantly chose to leave.

He and Dai Wu walked to the other side of the playground, where almost no one was there. Farther away are some collapsed rockery, which seems to be the place where the roller coaster in the playground used to pass.

But now, everything has been ruined.

Dai Wu said, "Look, many actors are hopeless."

Xu Bei gave a wry smile.

"I," Dai Wu said with a shallow temptation in his tone, "I actually hope that I can really defeat NE and then leave the narrow building. But there are some people, no matter it is the task force. Still the actor, even if you leave this place, the waste is still waste."

Xu Beijin said: "If you defeat NE, you can definitely leave the narrow building?"

Dai Wu was taken aback.

"...Many people say that NE is just the artificial intelligence that is used by behind the scenes to monitor us."

Dai Wu laughed: "I didn't expect you to know those conspiracy theories." He stretched his waist, "What does it matter? This is just a good hope. It's like a carrot hanging in front of a mule.

"Down with NE...Second Life...Everything is good. I just don't want to be like those actors."

He lifted his chin and pointed out that he was talking about these actors in the playground.

They have been lost in the role they played.

Dai Wu said: "From this perspective, isn't this like a nightmare of eternal collapse?"

After Xu Beijin was silent for a moment, he said: "If the actors really integrate into their roles, then they will not think there is any problem with the nightmare of collapse." His tone is a little complicated, "In fact, the actors face The right situation is much more complicated than the taskers."

Dai Wu gave him a slightly surprised look, then laughed: "It is true."

Xu Bei lost his mind for a moment, and he thought of other things, such as... the nightmare of eternal collapse.

The taskers will fall into the nightmare of eternal collapse, and the actors will do the same.

As the number of nightmare openings increases, the nightmare will gradually collapse to a certain degree; and at the end of the development, it will fall into an eternal collapse.

The exact number of times, the situation after the crash, and whether it will definitely fall into it are all unknown. But that is a situation that is certain to exist, and both the tasker and the actor believe it.

But Xu Beijin also knows that, to a certain extent, whether the tasker and the actor will fall into the nightmare of eternal collapse, in fact, depends on their subjective will.

If they have been sober, sensible, thinking and escaping calmly, then they will certainly not sink into it.

But if on the contrary, the taskers themselves have collapsed and are unable to deal with what happened in the nightmare, or the actors have completely integrated into his role, and can’t distinguish the difference between reality and illusion, narrow building and nightmare, reality and performance , Then, they are extremely likely to stay in the nightmare forever.

The eternal collapse of the nightmare also means the eternal collapse of the tasker and the actor.

As long as any one of them can keep calm, then it is not at the end; but the emotional contagion is always very fast, so the eternal collapse of nightmares is often the end of the pot.

Xu Beijin himself has never experienced that kind of nightmare, and he has not actively participated in the development of nightmare before. However, he can imagine what a terrible situation it will be.

Dai Wu said: "In fact, I only hope that even in a narrow building, I can live a good life."

Xu Beijin smiled softly.

Dai Wu said in astonishment: "Aren't you laughing at my thoughts?"

Xu Beijin: "..."

He straightened his face and said seriously: "I don't have one."

Dai Wu shrugged: "Just kidding." He looked at Xu Beijin, hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help asking, "You know..."

"what?"

Dai Wu said falteringly: "It's...in the narrow building recently..."

Xu Bei frowned and looked at him.

Dai Wu swallowed the words all at once, and said with a smile, "Forget it, forget it, I won't ask."

Xu Beijin: "..."

baffling. He thought to himself.

At this time, there was a loud noise from a little further away in the playground. The master brain enters some information into their brains and tells them what they should do now.

When this kind of scene is relatively large, and the tasks of the tasks are very free and flexible, the presence of NE is stronger. It will always appear at the necessary moment, telling the actors what to do now.

So Dai Wu and Xu Bei bid farewell and went where they should be.

And Xu Beijin also walked to the noisy place in accordance with the requirements of the mastermind.

His mood is suddenly a little strange, because at this time, he seems to be more than just a group acting. On the tasker's side, he can even be regarded as an important role in this nightmare.

He thought, maybe this is the case, so the mastermind asked him to appear on the only way for the taskers?

This made Xu Beijin feel a bit of novelty.

He walked forward again, pretending that he was just passing by by accident, but he happened to be discovered by the taskers who came here to collect information-he met Jiashi Maki, collector and Fei.

The six taskers were divided into two groups. The collectors could not be with the bald head and the flower arm, so the team was split into this.

There is Fei's selfishness in this, because Wu Jian is the person she truly trusts, so Wu Jian must go to the other side to see the specific situation, also in order to monitor the restless tasker of the bald head.

The way they enter the playground is very simple and rude-brute force.

Before Mu Jiashi and the collector walked to the front door, there were many survivors guarding them, and they had nothing to do but to make a detour.

But after the playground collapsed, it was originally an open area. They changed the direction now, and although they also encountered some survivors, after a fight and shoving, several taskers smoothly mixed in.

However, this action also attracted the attention of many survivors in the playground, who are slowly gathering.

When Mu Jiashi and others met Xu Beijin, he actually planned to go to the fountain pool square a little deeper to meet the other survivors.

But the main brain deliberately arranged for him a path that the taskers must pass, and deliberately asked him to reveal some information to this group of taskers.

Fei almost saw the man in a white shirt with messy hair. She said to herself strangely, "That bookstore owner...?"

The collector rubs his chin: "Why is he here?"

Xu Beijin has already made plans to tell this group of taskers what is going on in this playground and group of survivors. When the taskers came up, they asked: "Do you remember us?"

Xu Beijin: "..."

He choked for a while.

He knew what the taskers meant. They were probably worried that he also lost some of his memory, but... But why is it so like doubting his memory?

Xu Beijin slandered himself secretly, but calmly glanced at the three in front of him, and nodded slightly.

"Great!" Fei pretended to be delighted, "We just came here and don't know the situation here..."

Then, the situation returned to Xu Beijin's control. However, he still carried out an information transaction on the grounds of adhering to his principle of equivalent exchange.

But the taskers didn't know anything, they just talked about the memory loss.

Xu Bei had known this matter as early as possible, and he did not hide it. After all, this was what the bald head and the flowered arm told him. So he said calmly: "I already know about this, but... forget it. Just treat you as owing me a sum."

Fei nodded hurriedly.

In the live broadcast room, the audience chanted: "All taskers have been fooled! It's so miserable to be deceived by Beibei!"

Xu Bei glanced at the live broadcast room, and a little smile appeared in his eyes.

The taskers were a little nervous, because they didn't know why Xu Beijin laughed, and they only felt that the other party was thinking of a bad idea.

Xu Beijin didn't know that his image had been fixed on both righteousness and evil, and he carefully told all the information to the missionaries, even including where the black-robed man lived.

Fei was a little surprised, and then she suddenly realized: "I understand what you mean. Don't worry, we will get things done."

Xu Beijin: "..."

He was slightly at a loss.

The audience in the live broadcast room laughed loudly: "I understand, I understand! This girl must think that Beibei is going to punish the man in black robes!"

"Look at Beibei, you have already said where they live. Isn't it true that Sima Zhao's heart is known to everyone?"

"Don't blame the girl for misunderstanding, if it were me, I also doubt why Beibei would say so in detail!"

Xu Bei's mouth twitched slightly, frowning with a headache. He hesitated for a moment, and thought, what can I do? Does he mean it? But if you talk too much to explain, will the taskers misunderstand what he meant?

While hesitating, the collector suddenly pointed to the front, smiled and said, "Is it the man?"

Fei raised his head and his eyes lit up: "Black robe, middle-aged, eagle nose...it's him!"

Xu Bei quickly said, "You don't need to do anything to him... He will tell you something." He thought, he can be worthy of his colleagues, and then he quickly stabilized his image, "However, you already owe me this. Two pieces of information."

Fei hurriedly thanked him and chased up with the collector.

Mu Jiashi did not follow them, and took the initiative to say: "I will follow him." He pointed at Xu Beijin, "Can you?"

Fei Wei frowned, but then let go. She thought that since this bookstore owner was an important member of the nightmare, she really had to leave one by his side, and Mu Jiashi was the best choice.

At least after the nightmare started, Mu Jiashi has been peacefully not acting as a demon.

And Mu Jiashi has another purpose to stay by Xu Beijin's side.

Why did Xu Beijin come to the playground from the bookstore? Is there another mystery in this? Is something about to happen in the nightmare?

Maybe you really have to pay attention to his actions afterwards.

Fei and Muji Jiashi looked at each other, then nodded, and left with the collector without looking back. They fell behind the black robe man and walked away slowly.

Xu Beijin looked at Mu Jiashi and couldn't help asking, "Is there anything you are looking for me alone?"

As he said, he continued to move forward. Because a stranger broke in, according to the rules of the group of survivors in the playground, they were going to gather at the fountain pool square, so now Xu Beijin has to rush there.

But why Mu Jiashi wanted to follow him, which made Xu Beijin a little puzzled.

The puzzle is that with Mu Jiashi's frustrated state, he is unlikely to take the initiative to propose to follow a certain narrow-building resident alone, snooping on news, etc.... This does not fit his current psychological state.

So Xu Beijin thought, did Mu Jiashi have something else to tell him, so he deliberately sent the other two taskers away?

And that is indeed the case.

However, after hesitating for a while, Mu Jiashi decided to detour to other areas first: "I did have something to find you alone. I wanted to find you in a narrow building, but...well, it would be better to meet you in a nightmare anyway. But that's it."

Xu Beijin blinked a little blankly.

"You may not know what happened in the narrow building recently..." Mu Jiashi was a little bit hard to speak, and kept pondering his words, "Anyway, because Ringo's...er, feelings...love for you? So? ..."

Xu Beijin suddenly interrupted Mu Jiashi's words, he stopped, and said incredulously, "Wait...! You said Ringo likes me?!"
