Chapter 2 The watch, without a doubt
Chapter 2 The watch, without a doubt
Unlike Liu Qianhuang, who was relaxed because the will of heaven had been erased, Zhang Jie, who had not yet regained control of his body, was not in such a good mood.
"Am I the veteran in this Central Continent team, or is he the veteran?"
Zhang Jie, still shaken, thought to himself in shock.
In just one exchange, he didn't even have a chance to fight back before being instantly pinned down by his opponent.
Having never encountered such a situation before, he immediately wanted to retaliate with his Eye of Suggestion. However, to his surprise, the other party also possessed a similar ability, and it was even stronger than his Eye of Suggestion. In an instant, the other party stripped him of control over his body, leaving him only able to sit there as punishment.
In other words, this strange newcomer is superior to himself in both physical fitness and special abilities.
Logically speaking, the speed of awakening in the cycle of reincarnation is determined by the strength of the reincarnator. No matter how strong a newcomer is, they cannot compare to an old person who has redeemed rewards in the main god space.
In other words, those who undergo reincarnation are those who experience more cycles of reincarnation, and the earlier they awaken. Therefore, it is impossible for a newcomer to awaken before an older one.
That's why he just now thought that the person in front of him wasn't a reincarnator, but rather that he had scored too many points in Scream, and even the total annihilation in the previous horror movie hadn't lowered his score enough, which led to the strange enemy appearing in this horror movie.
But now that he had seen the person's entire appearance, he understood the other person's true identity. No matter how stubbornly he tried to deny that the other person was a reincarnator, however…
That watch—without a doubt, the other party was definitely a reincarnator.
Such immense power, yet capable of mentally controlling others—isn't that just too unfair?
Perhaps today is not Zhang Jie's birthday, but rather the anniversary of his death.
Then, a terrifying thought popped into his head.
Although Zhang Jie remembered that today was not his birthday before entering the cycle of reincarnation, he also understood the common sense that the day someone dies is not their death anniversary.
But this idea still took deep root in Zhang Jie's mind, as if some unknown entity had altered his understanding.
"I think I smell the scent of destiny."
Sensing a familiar scent in the air, Liu Qianhuang's expression turned serious. But in an instant, the familiar smell vanished, as if he had only imagined it.
Is it just paranoia?
Liu Qianhuang shook his head, doubting himself in his heart, but then he let it go.
So be it, he was suspicious. In this day and age, it was precisely his suspicion that saved his life. As soon as fate gets close, Liu Qianhuang can sense it.
So here's the question: why didn't I smell anything just now? Could it be that he has a cold?
"Hey you, I'm sorry, I really don't know your name. I'll lie here for a bit. We'll talk again when the other three people wake up."
Liu Qianhuang gave a few instructions to the person next to him, and then lay down on the floor to rest.
Cat's Eye Snail Lying on Sand
But before Liu Qianhuang could lie there for long, a handsome young man woke up from the ground.
"Gentlemen, you've finally woken up! We've all been waiting with bated breath."
Upon realizing that a third person had finally woken up, Liu Qianhuang's weariness vanished instantly, and he shouted excitedly before rushing straight towards the other side.
At that moment, if he weren't afraid of scaring the other person, he would just want to shout, "I love you so much!"
Generally speaking, people in ancient times were quite reserved in expressing their love and wouldn't directly say things like "I love you." If someone were to be reincarnated in the Three Kingdoms period, they should also become like an ancient person, not saying "I love you" casually. But when did the Three Kingdoms period they traveled to become a normal ancient world?
Do you like me, Cao Jianbin (Cao Dazuo), who uses my special abilities to untie other people's shoelaces every day, and then shouts "I'm so cute, I'm dying to see you!" and rushes over to help tie them?
The case is solved; Cao Dazuo is a porridge enthusiast (not really).
So, whether it's a cricket or a person, whenever Liu Qianhuang encounters something that suits his taste in his life, he feels an urge to shout, "I love you so much!"
Speaking of crickets, Liu Qianhuang missed his cricket terribly. His cricket was truly loyal and affectionate. Once he figured out the situation, he would definitely go find his cricket.
Before the handsome young man could react, he was suddenly pulled into Liu Qianhuang's arms.
"I'm awesome."
The handsome young man being embraced let out a curse, but his voice was high-pitched and seductive, sounding unlike a boy's. (To reiterate, this story is never short of nonsensical, plagiarism-checking segments inherited from the latest installment of the "New Three Kingdoms" series.)
"Is this right? Is this correct?"
Once embraced, Zhao Yingkong immediately began to rack her brains, wondering whether she was the descendant of the Zhao family, a lineage of assassins, or whether the other party was the true descendant of the Zhao family in the assassin world.
While it's true that her world is fantastical, with things like assassin families and the ability to unlock her genetic lock, it's not without its mysteries.
But what does it mean when you're playing on the computer and click an option that suddenly transports you to an unknown train? What does it mean when the man in front of you, grinning with his big teeth, can pull you into his arms with speed far exceeding your own before you can even react?
Although the person's actions seemed presumptuous, and indeed were, the lack of reaction from the sense of crisis was enough to show that the other party had no ill intentions towards him.
To be honest, if the other party really intended to kill her, given his terrifying speed just now, she would have been dead at least five or six times over by now.
Once Zhao Yingkong was no longer shocked, a strong desire for knowledge rose within her. From the man in front of her, grinning foolishly with his big teeth showing, Zhao Yingkong saw the possibility of becoming stronger.
"Where is this place? Who are you? Why am I here?"
However, the time spent enjoying family bliss is always short-lived. Just as Liu Qianhuang and Zhao Yingkong were treating each other with utmost respect, a voice interrupted everything.
Before I answer you, there is something I would like to ask you.
Upon hearing the question from the person behind him, Liu Qianhuang finally released the "handsome young man" he was holding, turned around, and began to speak to him with a serious expression.
"Have I traveled back to ancient times?"
Looking at the man dressed in ancient Chinese attire before him, Zheng Zha wondered to himself, "If this is ancient times, why is there a train? Or have I somehow traveled to a movie set?"
"What's the problem?"
Although Zheng Zha had just woken up from his coma and hadn't figured out what was going on, he was in an unfamiliar place, so since the other party was willing to communicate with him, it was important to answer their questions.
"As you have said, what is this place, who are we, and why are you here?"
Liu Qianhuang threw the question back at the other party verbatim.
This ancient person was truly a master of Tai Chi.
Upon hearing this, Zheng Zha covered his face with his hands in anguish.
He dared not open his eyes, afraid that what was happening before him was real. As a white-collar worker, Zheng Zha had naturally been involved in many office power struggles and backstabbing.
The reason he chose to press the yes key on the computer was because he felt that his past life had been meaningless.
But what about now? Before he transmigrated, he was always passing the buck with other department leaders, and after he transmigrated, he's still passing the buck with others all day. Didn't he transmigrate for nothing?
He so wished that when he opened his eyes again, a man would tell him: "You are very weak right now, you should lie down and rest."
Then the man told him that he was a doctor at the hospital, that this was the hospital's emergency observation ward, and that he was a patient who had been brought in because of an electric shock from a computer.
"Oh, that's right!"
Looking at Zheng Zha in pain before him, Liu Qianhuang belatedly realized something.
He quickly approached the man who was still sitting as punishment with a smile on his face, and released the mind control he had placed on him: "I am really sorry, I have offended you a lot, please forgive me, sir."
To show his sincerity, Liu Qianhuang first used his abilities to untie the other person's shoelaces, and then quickly squatted down to tie them for him.
Zhang Jie: What does that mean?
Zhang Jie was confused by the other party's actions and stood there for a moment, at a loss for what to do.
"So, what exactly is this place?"
In the end, it was Zhao Yingkong who asked the first question, breaking the strange stalemate.
"God, if I am guilty, please increase the difficulty of the horror movies. Please don't let this inexplicable newbie torment me."
After muttering a couple of complaints to himself, Zhang Jie took a breath and said, "Think about it carefully, it should have already injected all of this into your minds."
Hearing this, Zheng Zha finally lowered his hands from his face. He began to recall everything that had happened. He only remembered clicking the "YES" button on his computer screen when he saw the pop-up message, "Do you want to understand the meaning of life? Do you want to truly...live?" and then he lost consciousness...
Wait a minute, Zheng Zha suddenly felt something new in his mind: survival and life...
This is a game. Who created this game is no longer important. It could be the gods, the demons, aliens, or even humans from the future. In any case, he is a member of this game, or rather, he has already become a member of this game.
The game places players in a city where they feel lost and surrounded by decaying people. Once they choose this game, they are transported to various horror movie scenes.
As for Liu Qianhuang, what is there to recall? What is there to remember? He has no memories to recall at all. He only remembers that he had just closed his eyes in the last cycle of reincarnation, and when he opened his eyes in this cycle, he found himself here.
It's truly a case of turning a hen into a duck in the blink of an eye.
Wait, these familiar words.
He finally realized something belatedly, and turned his gaze to the black-haired man beside him.
Those scars, without a doubt...
In other words, he traveled through time.
Only then did Liu Qianhuang belatedly realize that he had transmigrated again, and this time to the world of Infinite Terror.
