Chapter 119 Narrating the Cage (Sixteen)
Li Sheng raised his gun and complained: "There is one thing I still can't understand. Why are PISHUA brand vending machines, PISHUA brand corn juice, and PISHUA brand laser weapons everywhere? It’s this brand.”
“Because their family is the largest sponsor of Narrative Prison. Now the economy is in recession, so of course we must retain the big sponsor, and every corner of the prison must reflect sincerity.”< br>
The warden said as a matter of course: "Our prison is like this. Prisoners in the prison only need to devote themselves wholeheartedly to jail, resign themselves to their fate, and sit through the jail. But there are things that the prison staff have to consider. That’s a lot. Investment promotion, maintenance, personnel, logistics. Every aspect must be in order to better support prisoners in prison.”
? ? ? Even in the age of space, we need to attract investment, right? And why is your statement so weird?
The corners of Li Sheng's eyes twitched, but without saying anything else, he steadily backed away while holding the Salvation Pistol, and exited the room with Hui Yu.
The wooden door gradually closed, and the warden's mechanical voice came from the crack in the door, "Watch your time! If you hesitate any longer, the entire prison will be reset!"
Bang!
The door was completely closed, but Li Sheng did not relax his vigilance until he walked out of the corridor and walked around behind the wall. Then he put aside his deathbed salvation and ran quickly to the cell in the lower right corner.
Isaac No. 1, or the original Elsa, was holding the rabbit doll and lying on her side on the ground, with no signs of life at all.
Huiyu stood aside, looking at the corpse that was ravaged by the iron plague virus in a daze, "She's dead?"
"Yes."
Li Sheng nodded slowly. Nodding, "After getting the rabbit doll, she has nothing worth cherishing anymore."
"." Huiyu's expression was extremely complicated, and she realized that the body was her, or that it had been her. However, the lack and blankness in her memory prevented her from fully assuming the role of Elsa or Isaac. I just felt an inexplicable strong sadness welling up in my heart.
"What to do now?" She took a deep breath and turned to look at Li Sheng.
Li Sheng was a little surprised. He originally thought that Hui Yu would be stuck in self-doubt for a longer period of time, but he didn't expect her to be so decisive.
When I was reading books, Li Sheng often had random thoughts and thought about what self-awareness is. For example, the long-distance teleportation technology of interstellar travel requires breaking up every atom that makes up the human body, and then reassembling the atoms of the same weight into a human being at the target location. After this kind of teleportation, will you still be yourself?
Or, in the near future where brain science, computational neuroscience and neuroinformatics are highly developed, is the self who uploads his consciousness to the network cloud a reflection of himself or a copy of himself?
Such questions are often related to [Is a centaur pregnant a human being or a horse pregnant? 】
【Why not build one in the north when the equator is so warm? 】
[I know the cute gesture of sitting and tilting your head is cute, but Hawking doesn’t have to do this every day, right? ] and other questions were juxtaposed,
Thinking about it while he was going to the toilet, which helped kill a lot of time.
“Wait for me for a while.”
Li Sheng turned his palm, took out the 70 ∑ coin, walked out of the cell, and returned after a few minutes. He had already changed into a pair of handsome men's clothes purchased from a vending machine for 70 ∑.
The labels on the clothing had no time to be removed, and there was an exaggerated slogan printed on them - the most breathable, comfortable, stain-resistant and flexible men's clothing at the same price in the world. It can effectively adapt to extreme environments such as vacuum, deep sea, and radiation.
"According to the warden, either kill Isaac in room three, or we will be reset and never escape."
Li Sheng, who had changed his clothes, shook his new clothes , asked seriously: "If that time comes, what will you do?"
".I don't know." Huiyu shook his head very slowly, "But I will not stop you from making a decision. If the situation worsens, just run away and leave me alone.
Everything here is caused by 'me' and has nothing to do with you."
"Don't worry, it won't be a problem. That’s bad. You can do this later, and then you can cooperate with me.”
Li Sheng smiled slightly, gave a few instructions, then puffed up his chest and strode towards the warden's office.
Boom!
He raised his foot and violently kicked open the wooden door. The warden in the room was startled. Hundreds of mechanical glasses lit up at the same time, accumulating high-energy lasers. "What are you going to do? I'm warning you."
Li Sheng fired the bat hook gun, drifted in mid-air at an incredible angle and quickly closed the distance, rushed in front of the warden, and held [Death Salvation] against the latter's head. Treat all high-energy lasers as if they were nothing.
Zila
When the warden's laser weapons were pointed at Li Sheng's handsome men's clothing, they automatically stopped charging and fell into a shutdown state.
“As I said, if the entire jailbreak process is regarded as a puzzle game, then this [Deathbed Redemption] is equivalent to an opportunity to reveal the answer. It can be used to change the strategy "
Li Sheng said in a joking tone: "For example, I use this gun to break open the cell in the lower left corner, get 80 ∑ coins, and buy 10 ∑ rabbit dolls and 5 ∑ corn juice.
Or I can use this gun to directly attack the vending machine and steal the doll, corn juice, and this set of men's clothing.
In the normal strategy process, I will have 70 ∑ savings left. , just the price of this men's clothing. It can withstand harsh environments such as vacuum, deep sea, radiation, and most importantly, it can withstand lasers from the same Pishuai brand."
Just now, Li Sheng asked Hui Yu to stay where he was, and he ran to buy this set of men's clothes, and then quickly ran to the reversal room at the beginning.
On the ceiling of the reversal room, there is the same model of Piushuai laser as the warden. Maybe it's due to the material, or maybe Pishuai Company, for the sake of its own image, has deliberately set the setting so that its laser weapons cannot penetrate its men's clothing, so that the men's clothing can remain intact under laser irradiation. Li Sheng can use his deathbed redemption to get the clothes in advance and easily break through the laser trap in the reversal room. He could also ignore the warden's death threats like he is doing now.
"Calm down! Calm down, okay?"
If there were sweat gland functions, the warden must have been sweating on his forehead, and he said quickly: " I am the warden of this area. Killing me will trigger a reset in advance. I will be resurrected at that time, and your two self-awareness will be damaged."
"If you can really be resurrected, then why panic? Looking at you like this, you shouldn't have set up very sensitive pain receptors for yourself."
Li Sheng's index finger gently rested on [Death Salvation] On the trigger, he said calmly: "Revisit this round of prison escape.
Reversal - Misdirection - Protagonist Effect - Continuity - Flashback - Warden's Room.
The fourth room, the continuity, is empty except for a button. This is strange, isn't it?
The logic of the narrative cage is to set up a button. The path to a successful jailbreak gives the prisoner a vague hope while making the jailbreak as difficult as possible
No matter what, it would not be enough to just put a button and make the engine room useless.
Except, that is not continuity, but reversal or misdirection. "
He grinned and chuckled, "The door number of each engine room is firmly nailed to the wall, giving people an [absolutely unmistakable] feeling, but when the seeds of doubt began to be planted, , everything becomes subtle.
Room 1, which contains gravity traps, laser traps, and the angler bench monster, appears to be an inversion room, but is actually a flashback room.
The room No. 2 that made me hallucinate and thought I was a comic character. On the surface it was the misdirection room, but in fact it was the protagonist's effect room.
Room 5, where the transporter scene plays out and depicts Isaac's last mission before being discharged from the military, is ostensibly a flashback room, but is actually continuity.
The empty room No. 4 appears to be continuity, but is actually an inversion room.
The warden's room you are in is the misdirection room. "
"Wait," Hui Yu, who was standing behind Li Sheng, reacted, "If this is the misdirection room, then Room 3 on the surface, the protagonist's effect room, is the real warden. room? "
Li Sheng smiled and said: "That's right. If we take this gun and kill Isaac in Room 3, that will truly trigger the reset of the entire prison. ”
The warden, or the Baiyan Machine in the Misleading Room disguised as the warden, said harshly: "Where's the evidence? This is all your delusion"
"The evidence is in my mind, but it's a pity that you can't do anything about it." See.”
Li Sheng shook his head, the mission log interface still displayed [Second phase mission goal: enter the five engine rooms, press the button, and go to the warden’s room]
He and Hui Yu had pressed five engine room buttons in succession and entered the 'Warden's Room', but the mission objective was not completed yet.
Quest logs will not deceive players, that is to say, there are others who lie.
"As for evidence two,"
Li Sheng suddenly swung his left fist and punched the relatively strange-shaped red eyeball in the middle of the Baiyan Machine.
Bang!
The glass exploded, revealing a red button buried under the shell of the eyeball.
This is the real, misleading room button.
Without hesitation, Li Sheng slapped it with one palm, and every small TV on the four walls of the room exploded. The Baiyan Machine itself also emitted a large number of electric sparks. All eyeballs flash violently and shoot high-energy lasers.
The seemingly solid walls and floors were hit by the laser, leaving a deep melt mark. If it hits a person, it can easily cut the body in half.
A single piece of handsome men's clothing cannot block all lasers. Fortunately.
Buzz——
According to the plan, Huiyu liquefied his arm and transformed it into a mirror, blocking the way. In front of Li Sheng, help reduce the power of the laser.
Li Sheng shot out a bat hook and fled the room with her, slamming the wooden door shut to isolate the high-energy light.
“Escaped.”
Huiyu breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Li Sheng, only to find that the latter was staring at him with strange eyes, and his expression froze instinctively. , "What are you looking at?!"
Huiyu's action of blocking the laser was not without cost. Her already low height subtly dropped by a few centimeters. It should be that a considerable part of the liquid metal was evaporated. . At the same time, in order to dissipate the absorbed heat, there were many semi-melted metal sweat beads hanging on her body.
It looks a lot like the condensed ice Coke you take out of the refrigerator in summer.
