Lin Sanjiu did not expect that she would have such a long rest period after she exited the game.
Over the past few days, many posthumans who had cleared other games entered this room. Lin Sanjiu estimated that there were almost a hundred of them. Even though this was only the second underground floor of a certain zone, there were still quite a number of people who had been here for 14 months. They were very experienced in the game. Once they saw this room that had no games at all, the experienced people immediately chose a spot, sat down, and rested to recover.
"Every time after a few games, there would be a rest period of about ten days." Lin Sanjiu once asked a girl about the rest period, and she replied, "The number of games is not fixed. From my experience, it seems to be based on the individual's situation. Even if you play ten easy games consecutively, you might not be able to win the rest period. Sometimes, you can get a rest period when you play a particularly difficult and intense game. "
"Thank you," Lin Sanjiu nodded at the girl and smiled. She had long discovered that it was easier for her to interact with girls, so she would only ask for information from them. "Have you ever stopped a new game conference?" Lin Sanjiu asked again.
The slender girl snorted when she heard Lin Sanjiu's question. "I've never even seen a shadow of it, and I don't have any clues. I don't even know where to look for it. I've never heard of anyone who managed to stop it. In my opinion, it's just an excuse for us to keep playing games. "
Lin Sanjiu thanked her profusely and gave the girl some small necessities as a token of appreciation before she left.
Lin Sanjiu wasn't the only one who asked for information. When the veterans saw a large group of posthumans, they were able to keep their composure. Instead, it was the posthumans who had just entered the game who would ask around who designed the game they had just played.
Occasionally, there would be someone who would proudly admit that a game was his creation. Of course, that was when he was sure that no one would come after him for revenge. If Lin Sanjiu found the designer of "The Elephant in the Room", she really didn't know what would happen to her. Even though they were not allowed to use force during the rest period, they didn't have to worry about entering a pocket dimension.
For the past ten days, they did not have to worry that they would step into the pocket dimension. They did not have to worry about fighting other posthumans. They did not have to worry about being hunted by duoluozhong or other species. Everything was relaxed and safe.
Except for Ji Shanqing's condition.
Not only did the ten days of rest not help him much, but because he had been separated from his main body for a longer period of time, his energy and condition were clearly weakening day by day. He slept longer and longer. Sometimes, Lin Sanjiu suspected that he had fainted rather than fallen asleep. Previously, he could write something effortlessly, but now, he had to work on it for hours.
Under such circumstances, he naturally could not bring Han Suiping and Nvyue back to the human realm.
Even though Lin Sanjiu was reluctant, she still had to ask.
"How can you go back as soon as possible?" she asked during a bedtime chat. "Teleport with me … I'm afraid we won't make it in time." This was the grand prize's original plan. He wanted to return to the world of the Data Stream Library through the visa. However, due to various unforeseen circumstances, he kept delaying his plans. Now, he was getting further and further away from the Data Stream Library.
They had only been in this world for slightly more than half a month, and it seemed that the grand prize would not be able to last another year. Besides, even if he could, he probably shouldn't. If the Veda really existed in this world, it would be best for him to avoid it. Lin Sanjiu still remembered the Veda's great interest in him when they first discovered him.
The grand prize was silent for a while.
"I've thought about it. Following someone who is about to be transferred is a good idea," Lin Sanjiu sighed. "I can ask around tomorrow. If there is someone who is about to leave without a visa, I can ask you to follow him."
"Okay," he replied in a low voice.
Perhaps because the topic was too sensitive, Lin Sanjiu asked around for the next two to three days, but she did not have much luck. Silvan was even worse off. The so-called "spoils" he brought back were basically girls who were bewitched. No matter what he asked, they would only answer "Yes, yes, okay". It was a sight to see when Lin Sanjiu was so worried about the grand prize.
Since they could not go back for the time being, they could only try their best to reduce the consumption of the grand prize. Lin Sanjiu asked him to sleep for as long as he could. She did not allow him to write even a speck of dust. If she could, she would wrap him up in a piece of cloth, roll him into a ball, and put him in her card deck.
When it was the tenth day of the resting period, a short instruction appeared on the wall.
"Those who have rested for ten days, please choose a door and leave this room."
Among the group of people who were sitting and lying on the ground, the voices of the people who were whispering to each other gradually became softer after Lin Sanjiu said that. The posthumans stood up one after another and turned their heads towards Lin Sanjiu.
Every door in the room had been pushed open by a posthuman who had just finished a game. Now, it seemed that they only needed to push the door inwards to leave this room and enter the next game, even though the game that awaited them might not be the same game.
Lin Sanjiu randomly chose a door in the middle of the room. When she reached the door, she turned around to look.
Other than Silvan and Ji Shanqing, there were two other posthumans standing beside her. They were like fans of their idols who had suddenly met them at the airport. Ever since they found out that Silvan from the Munitions Factory was also in this game, the man and the woman had been following them for a few days.
Lu Hua and Haust, on the other hand, were standing a few steps away from them. They seemed to be hesitating between the two doors.
"We … want to go over there and have a look," Lu Hua pointed at the door in the distance and smiled at Lin Sanjiu. She whispered, "Maybe we will meet in another game."
"Then, be careful," Ji Shanqing said.
In the past ten days, the influence of the elephant game had diminished rapidly. However, since the experience seemed so ridiculous, Lu Hua and Haust were even more reluctant to travel with Lin Sanjiu. Lin Sanjiu knew very well that it was not because they hated her, but because they still held a grudge against her.
From this point of view, they were actually not that bad of a person.
It was inevitable that they would part ways. After nodding at each other, the two groups of people opened the doors and walked into the rooms behind the doors.
As usual, they were greeted by a line of large words on the wall, reminding them to find a new game conference and stop it within an hour. Just as the girl Lin Sanjiu had asked, this was simply an excuse for them to experience the game again and again. The room was only as big as the living room. Other than the entrance and an elevator that couldn't be moved, they could see the entire empty room with a single glance. How could there be a new game conference? How could they stop it?
After waiting for an hour, another volunteer, who was fully wrapped up, walked into the room.
"Aiya." The girl who had just caught up with them could not help but say in a low voice, "We have volunteers this time …"
"What's wrong?" Lin Sanjiu asked. "Don't all games have volunteers?"
"Even though the game did not mention it, I have a feeling that games with volunteers are more difficult." Perhaps because her idol was right beside her, the girl had become the most patient and gentle human being on the surface. "Usually, simple and fast games don't need volunteers … I suspect that the so-called volunteer's job is to actually send you into the game."
If that was the case, the Blue Wall Multiplayer Game did not need volunteers. Could it be that this game was as tragic as "The Elephant in the Room"?
Just when Lin Sanjiu's heart sank, the volunteer who had just walked in waved his hand. He must have heard their conversation.
"No, no, don't panic." His voice seemed to have been adjusted so that it was as hard to recognize as the previous one. "The game this time is a little easier. I am just in charge of leading the way. Please come with me. "
"What is it about?" the boy who followed Silvan asked.
The volunteer walked to the front of the elevator and pressed the up button. "Technically, I shouldn't reveal it in advance … But, it should be fine," he chuckled. "It is a role-playing game."
