Chapter 84: The ending of the little character.
A new world view is unlocked again. The appearance and disappearance of companions make the protagonist's inner monologue even more lonely.
After the monologue ends, there is the third copy.
When working hours are over, the protagonist who works alone does not go home, but continues to work overtime.
He doesn't want to go home and doesn't know where to go. Now there are strange octopus heads and bacterial colonies everywhere. Normal people like him can't see many anymore.
While he was numbly doing strange work, he saw a line of text appear on his screen: "I know you can see it." "
Don't make it public, but don't be too nervous. Those octopus heads don't actually use surveillance. . They are no longer human beings, but some kind of specious monsters."
"Remember this address and come to this warehouse later. Your companions are here. We are looking for a way to return the world to normal, and we need you. "
The progressive plot made Lao Wang immersed in it. The immersive experience and various suspense made Lao Wang and the audience in the live broadcast room feel like watching a blockbuster.
After reading these words, the protagonist's heart is filled with joy.
He discovered that there were many people like him in the world. This connection made him feel that he was not alone, and that he still had his companions.
After remembering the address, the protagonist immediately went to the location of the address, but as soon as he arrived, he saw the warehouse he was talking about bursting into flames, with groups of octopus heads surrounding the warehouse expressionlessly.
When they heard the footsteps, the octopus heads turned their heads and looked at the protagonist expressionlessly. Their quiet eyes were like the fluorescence on the sea, carrying the malice from the sea.
At this point in the game, there is only one bug left in this copy.
Controlling the protagonist to turn around, he walked silently towards the road behind him.
But no matter how he took it, this path could not keep him away from this scene.
Every reincarnation would bring him back to the burning warehouse and to a group of octopus heads.
At this point, Lao Wang knows what the last bug is.
After trapping the way back, this road disappears, and the protagonist's only choice is to walk to the warehouse and in front of the octopus heads.
He was surrounded by an octopus head, and a large number of tentacles rushed into his head along the external auditory canal and eye sockets. The tentacles full of suction cups and mucus passed through his brain, causing him to fall into a coma.
When he woke up, he found himself in the hospital.
The colony disappeared.
The octopus head and tentacles are missing.
His beautiful wife was beside him, her appearance was still beautiful, and she jumped over excitedly when she saw the protagonist woke up.
Holding his wife stiffly, the protagonist hesitated for a while and finally patted her shoulder gently.
At the same time, the protagonist's monologue began.
"They said that I have been sick before and everything I saw was hallucination."
"They said that I have been sick for a long time."
"They said..."
"That's it."
"I want to believe what they say."
"That's it."
After playing this three-part script, Lao Wang was a little unable to accept it.
According to his understanding, the protagonist should at least bring some weapons when he goes to the warehouse, and then kill everyone.
Or when facing a group of seafood, they suddenly explode and then kill everyone.
If it really doesn't work, a girl will fall from the sky and lead the protagonist to kill randomly. He can take charge of the situation. This kind of deus ex machina seems a bit counter-logical, but it doesn't matter. Players sometimes don't care about logic. As long as the emotions are in place at this time and the BGM sounds, it's enough to make the players feel happy.
Unfortunately, there is nothing.
The story came to an abrupt end, and everything disappeared without a trace like snow.
He was looking forward to a breaking point, a point where he could vent his previous depression heartily, instead of choosing to accept it and be assimilated by others like this.
[The plot ended so unpleasantly. 】An audience member complained, "What I want is a hero's awakening, not this little guy's compromise." ]
[There is no way, this is the plot that Lao Wang randomly arrived at. According to the existing intelligence, snow is a key piece of information, and the world has become this strange state because of snow. ]
[What is the reason for the snow? ]
[I don’t know, there is no explanation for this plot. However, other people have played different scripts and seen different plots. Let’s watch it later and analyze the plot. 】
【Although I feel unhappy, it feels quite realistic. This copy is full of various metaphors. The octopus head here is the embodiment of evil and ugliness. The wife’s octopus head represents unsightliness, and the colleague’s octopus head represents philistine. The protagonist said that the female colleague next to him was not before, but she is now. It means that he once thought that his female colleague was extraordinary, but after actual contact with her, he discovered that she was actually ordinary. ]
[Your analysis makes sense. So how do you analyze the final protagonist entering the warehouse? ]
[I didn’t download the anti-fraud APP, so I was deceived into a pyramid scheme and lost all my savings. ]
[Hiss... When you put it like that, it's still a horror story! I will download the anti-fraud APP now. 】
【Me too! ]
[To be serious, the protagonist is obviously assimilated at the end, which should be a metaphor for the protagonist's final compromise with society and himself. In fact, each of us yearns for a hero, but each of us is not a hero. In the end, the protagonist expresses his belief that they are actually a kind of reconciliation with themselves, indicating that each of us will experience this step. ]
[Well, that makes sense. Old thief, what do you think? Why haven't you spoken? 】
Lao Wang said, how else can I watch?
Kneel down and watch!
You usually post silly pictures and drive around, acting like a kindergarten dropout.
When I play a game, you just sit around and watch the game. When you see an NPC, you demand that you rob the other party of all their coins and sell them to Africa for coal mining.
The results turned out to be serious. All of them were Chinese class representatives with perfect scores in reading comprehension. Even if I told you that you hadn’t attended 211 University, you wouldn’t believe it.
It turns out that everyone is an actor, and I am just a clown, right?
Seeing that the plot analysis in the group began to sublimate again, from the original small character ending to cynicism and existentialism, Lao Wang quickly stopped everyone, and then said: "Okay, let's continue with the next copy. I hope the next one will The dungeon can be more interesting."
[Okay, hurry up, but I still want to talk about the symbolic meaning of snow here...]
"I'm going!"
When Lao Wang said that the game should continue to play the dungeon, Fang Cheng stood on his feet In the void of the mirror universe, watch the real scene of the light ball unfolding.
The speed of cleaning data for a single player is very slow, but when tens of thousands of players are added together, the speed is quite impressive.
Although the final speed is still much slower than doing it himself, he is not in a hurry anyway. After all, others are doing the work, so he can relax a little.
However, the performance of the players still surprised him. They actually had fun playing something that seemed the most boring to him, and they could also analyze various profound points from the plot. This made him happy no matter what. Don't understand.
Game lovers are really weird.
In addition, the luck of individual players also surprised him.
For example, Lao Wang talks about games.
Most of the data in the light ball is actually related to culture and art, but some players always happen to have access to documents with detailed records and personal memories, which allows Fang Cheng to roughly know what happened back then.
"Xue, assimilation... sounds like the work of the Disease Demon Lord. But that guy should be dead. Back then, I carefully chopped him into pieces along with his soul. How could that guy survive?"
Recalling the past, Fang Cheng fell into deep thought.
