Chapter 71 I do
Huangfu Miaomiao was extremely excited to be able to contact the maze manager, which made her feel as if she had become a high-level player and her level had been raised.
Feng Ling frowned upon hearing this and looked at Li Qing: "You are a game administrator who carries alien information to human forums. How can you pretend to be a good person? What do you want to do?"
Li Qing Qing explained stiffly: "I have no malice; I am innocent. I discovered your forum by accident and saw that many of the information posted on it were wrong, so I helped to sort it out."
Feng Ling approached him and said sarcastically: "Should I do it for you? Can all mankind say thank you? ”
Li Qing took a half step back and defended himself: "I know you suspect me of ulterior motives, but I really have no ill intentions. At that time, the balance of the game was already on the verge of collapse, and it was an inevitable trend for humans to participate in the game. As an administrator, I was just following the trend. .”
"Game balance? Honkai Impact? Trend?" Feng Ling heard and laughed, "Why don't you get out since it collapsed? Aren't you an administrator? You don't have the authority to close the game?"
"...No."
This sentence was answered by Huangfu Miaomiao in a low voice.
Feng Ling glared at her displeasedly.
Li Qing saw the interaction between the two and concluded that Feng Ling did not kill the player Huangfu Miaomiao, which meant that there was room for negotiation.
He took a deep breath, raised his hands in a gesture of surrender to Feng Ling, and said, "Can we have a frank talk, okay?"
Feng Ling stared at him coldly.
The small animals hidden in the Taoist priest's clothes were poking their heads at the collar, while her cat spider and owl had been hungry for a long time and were squatting aside, ready to move.
She thought for a while, looked at the soft sofa seat in the RV, walked over and sat down first, vacating the seat opposite, and signaled Li Qing to come over with her eyes.
Li Qing silently glanced at the Cat Spider and Cat Eagle not far away, pursed his thin lips, lowered his head, walked over, and sat down.
"If you help me solve the puzzle, I have no reason to kill you." Feng Ling said, "But not killing you does not mean that I can trust you 100%."
She tilted her head , looked at Huangfu Miaomiao, "Didn't you say before that you could sign a contract with any intelligent life form? Now let him sign the contract, and from now on he will tell you Every word must come from the sincerity, and there must be no adulteration, otherwise he will die suddenly."
Huangfu Miaomiao whispered: "The contract requires exchange conditions between both parties, and cannot unilaterally bind one party. "
Feng Ling said: "Then just promise not to lie to him. "
Huangfu Miaomiao also didn't expect that his first devil contract would be used as a lie detector, so he felt a little complicated.
But she did not dare to reject Feng Ling's request, so she silently glanced at Li Qing, raised her hand to bring up the panel, and entered the contract contents.
Soon Li Qing received a system message——
[A demon invites you to a contract: As long as you are always honest when facing the devil, the devil will also be honest with you. Once the contract is reached, both parties cannot go back on it, otherwise they will die suddenly. Do you confirm it? 】
Li Qing: “…………”
He hesitated.
As an administrator, the information he possesses is his greatest confidence and support. Once all is known to Feng Ling, his end will be unpredictable.
Feng Ling slowly picked up a bone spur with a sharp edge from his shoulder, and the corners of his mouth slowly raised.
"Daozhang Li, are you unwilling?" She smiled intriguingly.
Li Qing's heart sank.
He remembered what Feng Ling had just said...
"You help me solve the mystery, I have no reason to kill you."
She wanted to kill him. She just lacked a reason to kill him.
In order to ease the atmosphere, Huangfu Miaomiao sprayed perfume into the air and advised Li Qing: "This contract already treats you very favorably. It just requires you to tell the truth. Neither It requires you to betray the player group, but it doesn’t stop you from resisting the hidden boss. You can also get the devil’s honesty, which is really a good deal.”
Li Qing: "..."
No, how could there be such a player in the game? ? ?
He felt something bad, his temples were twitching suddenly, and when he looked at Feng Ling, his eyes changed. Her eyes became wandering, as if she was looking for where to operate on him.
"I do." Li Qing replied bravely.
He signed the contract.
A bright light flashed in the air, and the words changed accordingly:
[The devil's contract begins to take effect. 】
Li Qing felt like he had a heart attack.
Feng Ling and Huangfu Miaomiao may not know it, but as the administrator of the game, he knows it all too well——
The devil's contract is not magic, but a powerful psychological suggestion , once it takes effect, he must do what the contract requires, otherwise, the subconscious mind that has been suggested will really cause the body to die suddenly.
"Very good." Feng Ling smiled with satisfaction.
She tilted her head, held her chin up to admire Li Qing's unusually ugly expression, and said with a smile: "I don't care whether you are a mutant with ulterior motives or a true, kind and beautiful ambassador of peace. Now I want to ask you the first question, Where is the maze?”
Huangfu Miaomiao Repeater: “Where is the maze?”
Li Qing replied in a low voice: "I do have the authority to open the maze, but it needs to be opened at a specific time and place."
Feng Ling showed him the photo on her phone, "The riddle is, the one wearing a top hat Frogs soar into the sky, coveting and kissing the lonely white bird, and the sky fire of the snake moon burns the door out of the ashes."
Li Qing thought for a moment and replied: "I understand. The bright light in the photo is at the Goddess Peak. The time is about 20 minutes ahead of sunset. I will open the maze for you at this location and time."
“Second question,” Feng Ling smiled crookedly, “What’s in the maze?”
Huangfu Miaomiao repeater: "What's in the maze?"
Li Qing pursed her lips and shook her head after a moment, "I don't know."
Huangfu Miaomiao He turned to Feng Ling and said, "He really doesn't know. If the devil's contract doesn't allow him to lie to others, he will never lie to others."
Feng Ling frowned, "Is this reasonable? He is a maze manager, so he doesn't know what's in the maze?"
"The maze is a genetic experimental field set up by the game system, and changes are happening inside it all the time. Sanqingshan's How has the maze evolved now? To what extent, no one knows." Li Qing took a deep breath and explained, "But what is certain is that the things in the maze will be affected by local geology, biological species, cultural traditions and other factors."
"How do you say it?" Feng Ling asked him.
"There will be no Egyptian mummies in the maze of volcanic islands in the Aegean Sea." Li Qing replied.
Feng Ling understood immediately.
She looked at the rocks in the distance through the car window and was silent for a while, "So, will there be pollutants such as mountain goblins and monsters near Sanqing Mountain?"
"No," Li Qing didn't wait for Huangfu Miaomiao's reply, and said proactively, "I have performed my duties as an administrator seriously and have not allowed the pollution in the maze to spread. Go outside."
Feng Ling was stunned when he heard this, "You mean that the pollution in the maze will indeed spread to the outside world? Isn't the administrator responsible?"
Li Qing's expression showed a sense of powerlessness, "No, they were killed."
