Why would the owner of the nightmare die?

After being taken aback for a moment, Mu Jiashi naturally thought of the reason—because of hunger.

The owner of the nightmare may have starved to death.

If the building in the dream is really a safety measure left by the owner of the nightmare in order to awaken himself from the dream, then under what circumstances will he wake himself up? It must be that the nightmare situation in the outer layer is already very urgent.

He himself has realized that he is dreaming. If he wants to leave this dream, he must wake up...

He must have clearly understood, knowing that he is dreaming, that's why he consciously awakened himself.

The outer layer is a nightmare, the inner layer is a dream. In any case, the owner of the nightmare seems to want to stay in the dream. Unless... he had to wake himself up.

Because if he doesn't wake up from the illusory dream, he might be going to die.

I'm going to starve to death.

After coming to this conclusion, Mu Jiashi breathed a sigh of relief. He seems to have vaguely felt the vein of this nightmare. He once again remembered the resident of the narrow building he had met at the corner of the narrow building, holding a pen and smirking.

The owner of this nightmare will ignore the external events and even the pain of his body because he is immersed in false dreams.

This sounds incredible.

How could there be such a stupid person?

However, human beings are indeed such fragile and complex creatures.

In the narrow building, Mu Jiashi knew that many taskers would rather degenerate than immerse themselves in the feast of alcohol and carnival. They resisted to participate in nightmares, understand the narrow building, and search for the truth.

If illusory, short-term happiness can fill their hearts, then why pursue the truth of the painful reality?

Happiness is something that can numb people's hearts.

Mu Jiashi sighed involuntarily. He can understand, but he can't agree. Sometimes he would retort impatiently in his heart that it was false-what is the meaning of false things?

But everyone knows that humans are creatures that pay for their emotions.

So Mu Jiashi didn't think about those things anymore.

After all, he is a man with cold, firm, and decisive nature after all. Under his depressed appearance, the wild vision that pushed him to a higher floor was still burning.

Just as he once uttered the truth in front of Xu Beijin, he returned to the narrow building, just hoping that he could adjust his condition and then go to a higher floor again.

If that failure did destroy him, then in the ashes, a new Mu Jiashi would be reborn. He sincerely hopes that this time he will not be destroyed.

…And even if it was destroyed again, what could he do?

In a place like a narrow building, it is always easy to give up and give up.

Mu Jiashi frowned and went silent for a moment. He was thinking about how to find the mysterious nightmare master.

At this moment, he heard someone take a breath in his ear, and then his body shook violently.

He looked at the inch and found that it was Fei's awakening inch. In another moment, the sight, bald head, and flower arm woke up one after another. In the end, the collector struggled a bit and woke up.

Mu Jiashi blinked and thought, this group of people are not so unreliable.

…Also, after all, they are all taskers coming down from higher floors.

After these taskers calmed down, Mu Jiashi analyzed the current dilemma, and then asked them what they thought.

"So, we need to find the owner of the nightmare now?" said the bald head thoughtfully. "Do you think that by pointing out his futility, you can reach a true ending?"

Mu Jiashi said rigorously: "It should be said that he will definitely not want himself to fall into the kind of ending in the book by his enemy. Therefore, an ending can be reached and leaving this nightmare. As for whether it is the true ending, I don’t know. determine."

"If it's just a normal ending, wouldn't it be enough to stop him from starving to death?" The collector said with a smile, "Where does the normal ending take so much effort?"

Fei said, "Isn't that... you have to find his enemy?"

Mu Jiashi nodded and agreed.

After hesitating for a while, Fei looked around and finally said, "I have a search card here, which can be used twice."

Almost instantly, all the taskers looked at her, with a little shock and subtle respect in their eyes.

Searching a series of item cards is extremely rare and useful, no matter what kind.

The search card can find places that are not ascertained in the scene, or clues, special items, or the location of a special NPC. This is enough to be jealous.

The Quest Card may discover the secrets hidden by others (including taskers and residents of narrow buildings); the Precognition Card can directly obtain clues related to the future development of this nightmare, which is rare and powerful, and it points directly to the center.

There are five types of item cards in the narrow building, each of which has three types, and a total of fifteen different types of item cards.

Among them, the charm is the most attractive (in various senses), the power is the most practical, the search is the most powerful, the transformation is the most treacherous, and the panel is...

Well, the panel series is the most tasteless.

In fact, apart from the panel cards, the other two prop cards in the panel series are very interesting. Both the definition card and the knowledge card have corresponding uses. However, compared to the rotten streets of panel cards, the other two prop cards are surprisingly rare. .

Therefore, the panel series can only be endorsed by the panel card in the end, and the panel card...

It is surprisingly tasteless.

Although tasteless item cards can sometimes be useful, of course the more powerful item cards are more useful.

Therefore, the taskers all looked at Fei with a surprised look.

…This is simply doing charity.

After a while, Fei said, "In exchange, I hope you can tell me... the nightmare related to the end."

As soon as he heard this, Xu Beijin in front of the live broadcast room began to be frightened. He was afraid that his live broadcast would be cut off again. It was okay, because he only mentioned a nightmare without any other hints, so his live broadcast was kept. .

The taskers all agreed to Fei's request, but they didn't plan to exchange clues immediately. Every tasker has his own careful thoughts, and does not want anyone other than Fei to get relevant clues.

So they agreed to communicate with Fei alone while looking for the nightmare master and his enemy.

Bu Cun Fei also said that he could also give the clues to Umbrella, which would be faster.

Everyone agreed.

So Fei used her item card.

"Brand Name: Merciful Messenger

"Panel pattern: (white wings with wings)

"Interpretation: The messenger can help you find the person you are looking for, provided that you really have some information to pass. If you can make the messenger like you, maybe he will find someone for you for free.

"Number of uses: 2/2"

After using this card, a bright white feather suddenly appeared in the air.

Fei said, "Just follow Feather."

Using this prop card did not make her feel distressed, because the card pool where this prop card is located, and the corresponding nightmare, have been figured out by the organization behind Fei.

In other words, apart from the luck when drawing cards, they can almost mass produce item cards.

Fortunately, they did not mean to rule the entire narrow building.

Afterwards, they followed the feather action formed by the prop card while telling Fei the clues they knew one by one.

They went to find the enemy first. Feather follows their movement speed, slightly faster than them. The taskers unconsciously speeded up their pace, for fear that the nightmare might change again.

The first person to come to Fei was the collector, and the bald head went to find Wu Jian.

What the collector said first was not about the clues of the doomsday nightmare, but he first talked about the item card. He smiled and said, "Madam, when you run out of this card, or else give it to me?"

"What are you trading for?"

The collector pondered for a moment, and then said: "I got down from a higher floor. In order to get to the bottom of the narrow building, I went to a nightmare that was said to be very difficult and had a bad ending."

"And that nightmare?"

The collector smiled slightly: "In that nightmare, the end is happening."

Fei squinted her eyes and couldn't help being a little surprised. She immediately said, "No problem, we exchange!"

Later, the collector told her the residence of the narrow-loud resident. After speaking, he left with an open eyebrow, waiting for the item card to be used up, and then came to his hand.

The second one who came to Fei was Maki Jiashi. He hesitated for a moment, and finally chose the nightmare he had experienced at the bottom of the narrow building.

"...It was a nightmare that had a true ending when I went to a higher level."

He looked unclear and spoke lightly.

What he didn't say was that the reason why he was able to hit the true ending in this nightmare was because Xu Beijin had told him the clues about this nightmare a few years ago.

He said: "It's a nightmare related to elevators. But...outdoors, it's a doomsday scene."

Fei showed an expression of interest, and then nodded. She said, "On the ground floor of the narrow building?"

Mu Jiashi nodded: "Yes." He paused again and added rigorously, "That was the case at the time. I don't know if it has disappeared. Maybe we can check it out later."

Fei nodded immediately.

In the live broadcast room, the audience discussed these nightmares enthusiastically, and Xu Bei blinked his eyes and thought, God will help me too?

In fact, what he wanted to let this group of truth-seeking missionaries go was the nightmare that Mu Jiashi said.

Not an inch... I'm afraid Mu Jiashi also misunderstood this nightmare.

The point is not the outdoors, but...

Xu Beijin slowly fell into contemplation.

At this time, Xu Beijin was still in the inner dreamland. Although the taskers had escaped from this dream and went to the outer nightmare, Xu Beijin still stayed in that bookstore.

Maybe even if he jumped off the building, he couldn't leave this dream.

After all, both dreams and outer nightmares are part of this copy of the game. Their group of "NPCs" probably cannot leave their fixed scenes.

The scene on the source list on the right side of the live broadcast system also implies this. These scenes are not divided into dream dreams and outer nightmares. Simple numbers are still used. It seems that these ruins are located on the same level.

Xu Beijin also faintly noticed something was wrong before. On the live broadcast system, there are a total of nearly 60 scenes to choose from, but in fact, in the real live broadcast process, he did not switch to so many scenes at all.

And the taskers have indeed walked almost all over the ruins.

Now the taskers have escaped from their dreams and went to the outer nightmare, so their names also appeared under those scenes that had never been broadcasted before.

Before, Xu Beijin thought that these scenes that did not show up were outside the fog; but he didn't expect that they were not even on the same level.

…Xu Beijin was misled by this live broadcast system.

He couldn't laugh or cry, since the live broadcast system cheated him in this way, and even provided him with a God's perspective, why not just tell him the answer?

For example, add a bracket after a zone to say that it is a zone in a dream.

Another example is the 39th area where the taskers are now, and brackets are added to define the 39th area of ​​the outer nightmare.

Isn't this clear?

Xu Bei made a secret to make fun of the rigidity of the live broadcast system, but he also knew that his thoughts were completely out of nothing.

While he was thinking about it, the taskers had already found the "enemy".

It was a man in his 30s and 40s, but compared to the decadent look in his dream, he now looked extraordinarily public and energetic. He seems to have become the little boss in this ruin, and he can even instruct others to find him food.

The feather floated in front of him, then disappeared.

Seeing the taskmen who suddenly appeared, the man showed a defensive and provocative expression.

Although this place still looked like a ruin, at least a small area was cleared, a small room was built with broken mud bricks, and a deck chair was even placed. The man was sitting on the recliner, looking extra leisurely.

But the taskers couldn't help showing weird expressions.

They unconsciously thought of the man who walked into the mist indifferently holding the bread like a corpse.

Mu Jiashi cleared his throat and asked, "Did you grab someone's food before?"

The man snorted, and he said disdainfully: "Snatch, do I still use it?" He smiled triumphantly, "That's called take."

The expressions of the taskers are even more weird.

…Well, no matter what, this man and the other man in front of me are nothing more than a ghost from the past in the nightmare.

Fei said, "So, I will use the item card again?"

Mu Jiashi stared at the man for a while, and suddenly said, "Use it. I think...I seem to know the true ending of this nightmare."

Fei used that item card, and another feather appeared. She threw the discarded card to the collector. The collector took a close look at this item card, then smiled and took the discarded card into his arms.

Mu Jiashi didn't pay much attention to the interaction of the taskers. He just said: "If the owner of the nightmare falls in the dream, it is the moment he wakes up, then if he wakes up, see this man...what will he have? reaction?"

Fei froze for a moment.

The bald head said: "He would feel..." He figured out the possible mental journey of the nightmare owner, "What's the point of having a beautiful dream?"

It was still a dream after all.

"I think too." Mu Jiashi nodded, "In reality...it's the nightmare of the outer layer. In fact, nothing has changed."

The taskers all showed thoughtful expressions.

Soon, under the leadership of Feather, they found the owner of the nightmare.

To their surprise, the owner of the nightmare was still asleep. His position is near his enemy, separated by up to a hundred meters, and his enemy has shelter from the wind and rain, servants at his command, and endless food.

And the owner of this nightmare, like the man who walked into the mist in the dream, lived in the ruins of ruined rubble that was simple and windy.

A few thin pieces of clothing, no, it should be said that they were just cloth, spread out on the ground and made his bed. Now it has become very dirty, shiny black.

Sleeping on this is not very comfortable to the naked eye.

The owner of the nightmare is a young man in his twenties who is skinny and black now. He is still holding a pen tightly in his hand, and he has some messy papers scattered all over his body with words written on it.

Some of the words on the paper are written in blood. Perhaps, when the pen he used ran out of ink, he would use his own blood to write.

Seeing this scene, Mu Jiashi naturally thought of the novel, "Nightmare Reincarnation". And what he thought of was not only the book in the nightmare, but also the book in the Xu Beijin bookstore in the narrow building.

He thought, is this the source of the blood on the cover of the book?

Even though the owner of the nightmare is asleep at the moment, the taskers seem to be able to hear the grunting sound of hungry in his stomach.

However, his expression is very soothing, even beaming. He was smiling all the time, almost a silly smile. He murmured something like "deserve it", "let you provoke me", "see me not kill you" and so on.

It sounds very relieved indeed. He is probably tossing his enemies in his horror novels and dreams.

However, the taskers frowned involuntarily.

Fei said, "Now that both of them have been found, what should we do?"

Mu Jiashi did not answer this question for the first time. He stared at the nightmare owner for a while, and then suddenly asked inexplicably, "Do you have a mirror?"

Fei was stunned: "...what?"

"Mirror..." Mu Jiashi took a deep breath, "Maybe, let him see what he looks like now."

He is the one who is pushed into the trap of self-propelled by hatred and false joy.

There are still a few minutes before the nightmare owner wakes up. The taskers searched nearby. They were not only looking for the mirror, but also for food.

They will still feel hungry when they wake up from a dream.

This kind of hunger actually made Mu Jiashi feel some novelty, after all, he never really felt this way in a narrow building. But as long as he thinks about why they have such hunger, his mood can't help being a little complicated.

This nightmare may be over, but... what about the narrow building?

A few minutes later, they actually found a broken mirror in the nearby ruins. Wu Jian picked up the mirror and wiped it with the bottom of his clothes.

He couldn't help but stared at himself in the mirror.

After entering the narrow building, his appearance never changed. Time seems to have resided in them, whether it is not good to be kind or cruel. However, fear and anxiety flashed in the eyes of ignorance.

He dared not look at himself in the mirror anymore, always feeling that it was just a shadow from the past, not the real him.

He handed the mirror to Mu Jiashi.

On the other side, two strong men with a bald head and a flowered arm brought the enemy of the nightmare master to an inch.

Without too much resistance, it seems that at this point, the main brain no longer gives too many obstacles.

Mu Jiashi realized that it was actually Fei's prop card, which caused them to make many detours, and they didn't have to look for the nightmare master and his enemy on this huge ruin.

…Sure enough, in many cases, item cards are a means of cheating.

However, in the game, skipping classes is also a technique.

Why don't I have a prop card?

If Ding Yi’s prop card is used, maybe they can solve this nightmare directly now, and what mirrors are they looking for?

Mu Jiashi sighed secretly. He had a foreboding that this was another ending that required a lot of words.

Can they convince the owner of this nightmare...?

However, the situation was beyond his expectation.

Mu Jiashi just said a few words at random, hoping that the owner of this nightmare would not be immersed in illusory dreams, so that his loved ones would hurt his enemies, and he passed the mirror to him to see who actually fell into him. The torment in the mouth.

He wanted to say something more, but the man snatched the mirror in his hand and stared at the withered self in the mirror.

The man sitting on the ground, so thin that a gust of wind could blow him away, looked at the paper around him blankly, and looked at the pen that he was holding firmly in his hand.

He looked at the inexplicably brought him, and he no longer remembers his enemy who once robbed him of his food. His enemy was swearing, still looking arrogant and arrogant.

Everything that happened in his dreams just happened in his dreams.

He fell into a long silence, as if the wind blowing from a distance had blown his brain clean.

So, he jumped up suddenly, threw the pen away, and then said loudly, "You are right! I'm just a **** trash!" He yelled, cried again, and said hoarsely. "Dreaming...what's the use!"

He looked at his enemy with hatred, and finally said desperately: "He doesn't even know why I hate him."

Finally, he looked at the taskers and said hoarsely: "You wake me up, thank you."

He looked at Mu Jiashi very seriously, crying seriously on his face, but couldn't help thinking in his heart that it was worthwhile that he was lying on the ground and deliberately touching porcelain, the legendary boss who played the true ending 100%.

Taskers: "..."

Ah... the master of this nightmare, is he... he trusts others so easily?

Although the result is good, the situation seems a bit strange...

Xu Beijin: "..."

He thought, is his colleague a bit too cooperative?

Even the taskers showed strange expressions on their faces.

This kind of eagerness to go to a higher level is too obvious, and the acting is too crotch... Can the main brain really be able to pass?

Xu Bei was very worried, and his mind seemed to be fooled.

Soon after, the mechanical, cold voice of the main brain came from the taskers' ears.

"Congratulations on achieving the true ending of the nightmare. Please choose whether to go to a higher floor: yes/no."

Someone left, and some did not.

When Xu Beijin woke up from the deep and boundless darkness and opened his eyes, what he thought of was the agreement with Dai Wu.

He thought, where did the master of the nightmare, the actor, live on the ground floor of the narrow building?

It took too long to go out, Xu Beijin really needed some time to find out some things buried in his memory.

However, when he opened his eyes absent-mindedly, the next second, he almost frightened his soul away.

Why is Ringo in his bookstore? !

Ringo noticed that he was awake, so he looked at the inch with piercing eyes and asked seriously, "Beijin, do you think I like you?"

Xu Beijin: "..."

…He felt that Ringo must have a bad brain.
