Chapter 205
Eve’s POV
An old tungsten filament lamp was suspended in the center of the room by black wires, flickering with a dim light.
The serene atmosphere was like ink dripping into clear water, spreading and diffusing throughout the room.
As the clock on the table pointed to "twelve", a low chime rang out from a distant place.
The ten people beside the table suddenly woke up and all looked at this strange scene.
My eyes widened as I gazed at this familiar scene, my heart pounding like a thousand galloping horses, unable to calm down.
I'm back.
Everyone is back.
The previous scenes in Los Angeles were all a cycle.
ram skull, or perhaps Omega Sheep, still stood beside the crowd, giving off a distinctive stench of decay and muttony smell.
Although I had long expected to come back, when I sat down at the round table again, all I could feel was despair.
"Good morning, everyone." " ram skull's familiar voice rang out again, "I'm very glad to meet you here. You have been sleeping before me for a long time."
I took this opportunity to quietly take a look at those familiar faces and found that their behavior was just like the first time I saw them.
Daniel stared blankly at ram skull and asked, "You..." Who is it?"
Upon this question, I frowned.
What's going on? Doesn't everyone remember what happened before?
If that's the case, why do I still remember?
"Since you all have this question, I'll introduce it to the nine of you..." "
Just as ram skull was about to wave his hands and speak passionately, lawyer Clara spoke up, "There's no need to introduce to us. I advise you to stop your actions earlier. I suspect that you have detained us for more than twenty-four hours, constituting the crime of unlawful detention. Every word you say now will be recorded by me and form testimony against you."
I looked blankly at Lawyer Clara and then at Dr. Miller.
It's his turn to raise a question.
Sure enough, Dr. Miller spoke up: "Wait, we just woke up. How did you know we were imprisoned for 'twenty-four hours'?"
"What on earth is going on..." My lips moved slightly. These people were as if they didn't know each other at all. They were saying the same words and doing the same actions as last time.
Everything seems as if nothing has changed; it's just a fresh start.
The lawyer explained to Dr. Miller in a haughty manner, which drew the glances of everyone.
Yes, in my impression, the lawyer's initial behavior was highly suspicious. She was seizing every opportunity to flaunt her dominance, which was probably a protective coloration beneath her calm exterior.
After she finished explaining, everyone fell silent.
The silence lasted for more than ten seconds.
I feel a bit strange. Last time, it seemed that someone said something at this moment, but this time I didn't say anything, so none of the subsequent events happened.
This sense of disconnection between reality and memory puzzles me greatly.
You may have noticed that there are clearly ten people in this room, but I call you "Nine".
Damn it... I don't care how many people are here. I advise you, this idiot, to be sensible!" Daniel said viciously, "You may not know what the consequences will be if you provoke me. I'm really going to kill you!"
It suddenly occurred to me and I turned my head to look at the young man on my right.
That was a face that was both familiar and strange.
He was also the tenth person in the room whom I had only met once.
He still looked at everyone with a strange smile on his face.
Since I have already walked around here, I somewhat understand.
Almost all those with such smiles on their faces were "natives". Could it be that this tenth person was just recruited by ram skull to make up the number?
ram skull walked up to the young man and placed his hand on the back of his head.
I was startled and quickly turned my face to the other side without showing any emotion.
The last time this young man's brain matter splashed onto his face, I simply didn't want to experience that warm feeling again.
There was a dull thud, and the young man's head bloomed on the table.
At the same moment, a bell rang in the distance.
And it was precisely this burst of bells that suddenly reminded me of something.
This man who just passed away might not have been a "native", but rather a "reverberator"!
But why was his performance so dull? Why is his role so absurd?
The reason why ten people were prepared is to use one of them to calm you down. ram skull shook the blood off his hand and said.
Lila let out a scream in an instant, exactly at the same time as last time.
I should have expected that the moment they woke up, they heard the bell, which indicated that at least one person had received an "echo" at that moment.
When the young man died, the bell rang again, and the "echo" came to an end.
If something that happened only once could be regarded as a coincidence, the bell rang for the young man's two consecutive deaths.
He must be the "Echoes".
As Lila's scream came to an abrupt halt, ram skull chuckled a few times:
"Very well, nine of you. It seems you all have quieted down." Now, please allow me to introduce myself. I am "ram skull" and you are "Participants".
"Now we have gathered you all together to participate in a 'game' and ultimately create a 'god'." "
This time I wasn't frightened by the dead, so all my attention was focused on the explanation of ram skull.
But at this moment, everyone fell silent again.
I have somewhat forgotten who spoke at that time. I only remember that someone asked ram skull, "What god did you create?"
But why didn't he speak up?
"Aren't you curious about what kind of 'god' we are going to create?" " ram skull stared blankly at everyone.
"Say it or not!" " Daniel gritted his teeth and snorted coldly, "If you kill someone in front of me, will I submit to you?"
"Well..." " ram skull shook his head and said, "We are going to create a god like 'God', who can realize all our ideas!" A great mission is waiting for "God" to undertake!
Looking at the silent crowd, ram skull sighed helplessly, "You guys are so boring. Are you all fine?"
Several girls were clearly terrified. I took another look at the remaining men.
Officer Murphy stared at ram skull with a serious expression, no different from last time.
Dr. Miller and the writer Owen Parker also trembled and wore a hint of fear on their faces after seeing the dead person.
Daniel, on the other hand, wore a look of disdain, revealing his unique expression.
Seeing that no one spoke, Daniel got angry for no reason. Everyone else was afraid of ram skull, but he wasn't.
"Damn it! You're playing with me!" We won the game against you, so you're going to deify us? What if we can't win?
"Can't win..." ram skull looked at the blood on his hand and said in a somewhat dejected tone, "It would be such a pity if we couldn't win..."
"For whom do I feel sorry?" I suddenly asked.
ram skull turned back and looked at me, his eyes extremely cold.
"Sorry for this world." "
It suddenly dawned on me that this was a cycle.
I must break this cycle!
Game of choice series one, completed.
