Rainstorm.
Dormitory 607.
The shadowy corners seem to hide ghostly shadows. It rose and fell with the bright light of the lightning.
The room sat alone with a man who looked out the window for a while and clenched his fists. After a long time, he seemed to have made some kind of determination to get up and walk out of the dormitory.
A dozen seconds later, a shadow emerged from the bed by the window. The shadow gradually became real. The man actually appeared there again.
The person got up and walked out the door again.
Soon, a shadow began to appear on the bed again.
And so it kept repeating.
That person was none other than Xu Fang, and it was the time when it was forbidden to leave dormitory 607 in the demon world. According to "Rule 2", if you leave the dormitory at this time, you will die.
It's true that Xu Fang will be resurrected at his birth point immediately after leaving, but isn't that a bit strange? He has repeated this twenty times, and each time he resurrects, and it is not as painful as failing to identify the rules of the game before resurrecting, so to speak, it is senseless.
According to the probability of resurrecting Wang after death, it is impossible that they have not "really died (disappeared)" twenty times in a row.
Xu Fang did not rush to identify "Rule 2", because he understood that it was just a trap.
In fact, identifying any of the rules of the game would fail. The demon game deliberately sets the rules to six, and then leaves one rule that seems to be correct to lure others to identify those rules that may be wrong.
There are definitely mistakes in the rules, and as time goes on, the further back they go, the more broken they become.
There is more than one wrong rule.
One of the above "Introduction to the rules of the game" is wrong.
This advice played a word game, one of the errors, not the same as only one error. With the rigorous logic of the game design, this sentence is very flawed.
Xu Fang flipped out a pen and copied the seven rules of the game on the table onto the paper. Then, he checked off "Rule 2" with force. After that, he wrote a few words.
[Will not die.]
Yes, it was true that you could not leave the dormitory at the moment of the storm, but even if you did, you would not die, and those who left would be forced to move to the resurrection point.
Unfortunately, Xu Fang and the others did not think of this no matter who they were, because this method could quickly identify whether there were demons mixed within the crowd. Without demons, it would be possible to trust each other.
Now they are all dead, but also a side reaction to the fact - there are no demons among the congregation.
[If the correct rules no longer meet the conditions of the game, it will automatically disappear. ]
This is one of the advisories. As participants keep dying and disappearing, if "Rule 7" is correct, it will disappear at some point, unless ...... unless Xu Fang himself is a demon.
This could be a trap set by the game - the demon could be referring to some identity and not an evil demon as they thought. But in that case, there is no way to reason.
Xu Fang does not believe that he is a demon.
Xu Fang's mind flashed back to Luo Xiaoming's earnest expression, obviously scared to death himself, but still talking about protecting him ......
Xu Fang showed a small smile.
Maybe everyone else is a demon, but only Xiaoming is the only angel, right? In a series of ugly and twisted events, when everyone else had their own evil intentions, Xiaoming was the only one who believed in him unreservedly and went out of his way to save him ......
Xu Fang crossed out "Rule 7" and wrote:
[There are no demons among the participants. ]
Now, continue reasoning with the premise that "Rule One" and "Rule Seven" are wrong.
Everyone seems to see some kind of vision at some point in time.
Wang saw his non-existent girlfriend.
Xiaoming saw the black shadow man who left.
Fatty saw the dead Wang.
And Xu Fang himself saw his five roommates turn into evil spirits.
As for what Wenjian and Big Teeth saw Xu Fang is not sure, but it must be some misleading visions that give people the wrong idea.
In this way, Wang's first death was not leaving dormitory 607, but a failed attempt to identify "Rule Seven". The second death was killed by the combined efforts of all the people. Wang disappears completely after dying twice.
Luo Xiaoming's first death was killed by Wang, and his second death was a failure to identify "Rule One". Luo Xiaoming also disappeared completely after two deaths.
If I remember correctly, Wenjian, Big Teeth and Fatty also died twice and then disappeared completely!
Two times three times can be a coincidence, but the same thing happened five times, what does this prove? It proves that everyone has two lives, and after the first death, there is a chance of resurrection, while the second death is the real death.
Xu Fang checked off "Rule 3" and wrote:
[A person has one and only one chance of resurrection. ]
Already ruled out three rules, the next, is the biggest problem.
First of all, how big is the demon world? The game content does not explicitly say, both may be only the 3rd apartments, but also may include the outside of this bizarre red space.
Xu Fang took a look at the rainstorm outside.
If the demon world also includes the outside world, then the next is completely impossible to infer ......
"It always feels like this game is ...... like artificial."
"It's possible. Can design this kind of rules complex and full of malicious game, I'm afraid that really is some great power to come up with. This is scary, if there really is someone, I'm afraid that this game will not be easy to good."
Mentally recalling a conversation with Xiaoming at some point, Xu Fang was stunned.
"The man-made ...... demon world ...... If it was really caused by someone, would he have that much energy to create a world?"
Xu Fang knocked on the window and muttered: "Could the world outside also be an illusion? The reason why you can't destroy the window is because the window is already the end of the world?"
Such words ...... a conclusion leapt out.
The demon is just a cover, the real core content is not "demon" but "game"!
Because ...... demons simply do not exist!
Indeed, from the first day to now, no one has seen the so-called "real demons", they died before they saw the "real demons".
In this world, the only thing that can directly threaten human life is the rule of designation and ...... humans themselves.
It is to let them see the illusion, let them kill each other, in a condition of misunderstanding and distrust, to seal all the way out!
Why are the weapons given to humans not to kill demons but to defend themselves, because here there are no demons at all and the weapons are used to kill their own kind.
In that case, it is also true that the demon will not point to any rules of the game. How is it going to identify something that does not exist.
In this case, the third rule of victory is also a purely misleading trap!
The person who designed this game has designed many rules of the game one after another, falsely misleading the participants. As if afraid of others to see through his insidious tricks.
Xu Fang smiled confidently, so it seems that there is nothing to be afraid of, if the designer is really omnipotent, then Xu Fang would have died 10,000 times. The reason why he is still safe and sound is probably because the game designer has some "limitations".
"I identify the rules of the game ......"
It's time to decide the fate, to win or lose once again.
"These rules ......"
took a deep breath, and Xu Fang said loudly.
"All of them are wrong!!!"
Rumble!
A final thunderclap rang out, and then the world slowly fell into a silence.
The surroundings began to distort and crumble. That originally indestructible glass suddenly burst out cracks, cracks climbed up the walls, the floor, the ceiling ...... and finally spread to the whole space.
It was as if the sound of something shattering was heard.
Everything fell into darkness ......
Xu Fang sat up violently from the bed, froze for a moment, and then looked out of the window in a daze.
The bright sunlight came through. Several thin bands of light were illuminated by the Tyndall effect.
The sky was blue, with a few white clouds. Occasionally a swallow swept by, vaguely inaudible chatter.
Trembling, he opened his phone and looked at the time.
October 16th, 7:43 a.m.
Exactly the same day he entered the demon world.
He won and returned to the real world. The demon world disappeared. Everything returned to peace, as if nothing had happened.
Escape from the dead ...... he recovered a life.
This may be an exhilarating thing, but Xu Fang only felt his heart palpitating.
-- The future, perhaps, has something even more terrifying waiting for him.
