Chapter 298 The Boundary Between Illusion and Reality
Shen Guanyu and Huo Ziyan tried their best, but they couldn't stop "Zheng Xun" from unlocking the blockade leading to the sixth floor.
The key was inserted into the keyhole, the iron chain slid down with a crash, and flames poured down from the six floors, like a waterfall of fire, coming from all directions.
The air was instantly heated.
"Let's go!"
Shen Guanyu pulled Meng Lian, and Meng Lian reacted and immediately ran downstairs with the other two people.
But they were already surrounded by flames.
There are only three ways to the next floor: stairs, escalators, and elevators. The stairs and elevator were in the same place, and there was a collapse there, making it impossible to get through.
At the entrance of the escalator, a fire snake suddenly sprang out, almost burning the skin of the three people.
No matter how advanced the weapon is, it is only useful when dealing with bosses.
Faced with such a disaster, unless they bring their own fire-extinguishing tools, they will be as helpless as they are now.
Behind them, "Zheng Xun" stood at the escalator on the sixth floor, looking down at the three of them.
For a moment, he turned his head and looked at an "empty" place.
Standing there was Zheng Xun from another time and space.
Zheng Xun held four dolls in his arms, facing the other person across the sea of fire.
The doll can move, its toothless mouth opens wide, and it grunts and bites Zheng Xun's arm, as if it is playing with him.
Zheng Xun patted the doll's head.
"An'an, now is not the time to play, you have to stand up."
The dungeon rewards collected from the Doll House finally came into use.
An An's family.
Zheng Xun initially prepared a secret weapon for group fights.
This prop has its own special features. Although they are capable of action, the White Tower does not classify them as subordinate.
This also gave Zheng Xun an opportunity to exploit.
The boss of the White Tower can only be solved with the weapons provided by the White Tower.
The dilemma created by the White Tower can only be broken with the props given by the White Tower.
Zheng Xun now wants to break the dilemma.
"I'm really not good at things like solving puzzles that use my brain."
Zheng Xun put the An'an family on the ground, and they ran forward unsteadily. Every time they took a step, the soles of their feet made a squeaking sound, like the squeaking shoes worn by a toddler.
As the host, Zheng Xun watched the "childlike" scene in front of him with all his attention.
"I still like it to be straightforward."
Zheng Xun knew that he was betting. At this point, there were too many unexpected situations, and the direction of things was completely different from the outcome of his original simulation.
From the moment they entered the dungeon and saw the special lottery machine with a pattern drawn on it, everything started to derail.
First it was Song Yao, then Pei Minghuan, Lin Yisheng... They saw strange visions one after another.
Even Huo Ziyan, Shen Guanyu, Meng Lian, and Zheng Xun himself seem to be torn apart by the chaotic space.
"The abnormal things are too concentrated and seem deliberate. There are insurmountable boundaries everywhere, and I don't like it.
What happens if the rules are broken? I'd like to see what it's like.
No matter it's time, space or illusion, don't try to trap me. "
An An's family stumbled to the boundary of time and space. Here, they encountered an obstacle, and the four little ones fell several times.
This is the so-called "border".
They were not discouraged and stood up again, holding on to the invisible wall and hitting hard.
With each collision, their bodies will grow taller, stronger, and stronger.
From the little strength at the beginning, it slowly gained the power to make the entire "wall" tremble.
Not only that, many dolls jumped out of An An's small backpack. These little things that once caused Zheng Xun a lot of trouble have now transformed into reliable helpers.
The barrier of space is on the verge of breaking.
Zheng Xun closed his eyes and no longer looked at Huo Ziyan and others who were trapped in the sea of fire, nor did he care about the progress of An An's family.
He is concentrating on himself.
In the mess and chaos, Zheng Xun was observing himself.
He withdrew his overly distracted attention, allowed his strength and spirit to return to his body, and became calm and collected.
Don't be fooled by the illusion in front of you.
Don't waste your energy on enemies that don't exist.
Zheng Xun repeated this silently in his mind, and his consciousness gradually became clear.
As his own consciousness changed, cracks appeared in the surrounding impenetrable space barrier.
An An concentrated all his strength on his right arm and punched with all his strength.
This punch hit the barrier that had already cracked, and with a bang, the "wall" that separated Zheng Xun from other players made a huge cracking sound.
Like a piece of glass being smashed by a stone, with a crash, the illusion was completely shattered.
Players, it's time to wake up from this nightmare.
Zheng Xun was the first to open his eyes, and he suddenly felt weightless. He was falling.
He urgently adjusted his posture in the air, bent his legs slightly, and landed on the ground with the soles of his feet first. He put his head in his hands and curled up to protect his key parts.
Fortunately, the height was not too high and he changed his position in time, so he only suffered minor scratches.
After him, Huo Ziyan and Shen Guanyu also fell down one after another.
And Meng Lian. The girl's strength is relatively small, so it takes a little longer to break the cocoon.
That’s right, cocoon. After the four people landed one after another, the first thing they saw was where they fell.
Just above their heads, there were many moth cocoons of different sizes hanging.
The smallest of these cocoons is similar to the normal cocoons in nature, and the largest can hold two or three people.
As for the cocoons that wrap them, they are only about one person tall and can only hold one person.
There are seven cocoons of this size in total.
They are specially prepared for players in their industry.
And the reason why they encounter all kinds of strange phenomena that cannot be explained, including the changes in time and space, the sudden appearance of a passage, a bottomless pit, etc., are all illusions.
The illusion started as early as the moment they finished the lottery.
If they can't find it in time, they will be killed by their own imagination.

1. About suits. As the commercialization of Baita deepens, players often have the need for clothing. The attitude towards suits can be roughly divided into: like, can be used as a second layer of skin (Xiao Jun, Gu Xiuqi, etc.); casual, it doesn't matter whether to wear it or not (Cheng Jie, Xu Guan, etc.); hate, must force it into the suit (Zheng Xun, Li Shaoan, He Yuxing, etc.).
2. About hair color. Except for the color palette master He Yuxing, most of the male and female contestants in the White Tower have natural hair color, the only difference is that they are more black or brown, but their hairstyles are very different.
