Chapter 289 Semifinals (5)
Gu Shijiu knocked on the door, and footsteps and a sweet voice came from inside: "Who's outside?"
"I've come looking for Minnie's bow; I heard it's with you." Gu Shijiu secretly decided that if Donald dared to lie to her, she would go back and beat him up.
"You mean this?" The door opened from the inside, and a familiar, gigantic body squeezed out of the room.
Minnie lowered her head, making sure the person outside could see the pink bow in her hair more clearly, and smiled broadly: "You've come."
"What do you mean?" Gu Shijiu was confused for a few seconds, then suddenly realized, "You didn't lose your bow!"
"Hehe—" Minnie shook her head smugly, just about to continue her lines, when she was interrupted by Gu Shijiu rushing over.
"That's too much! How could you lie to me?" Gu Shijiu complained tearfully, looking aggrieved.
Only Minnie, who works under him, knows how much pain she's in.
Gu Shijiu suddenly stretched out her hands and shoved Minnie hard with all her might.
Minnie's massive body swayed violently under the powerful force, causing her to lose her balance and fall to the ground.
Gu Shijiu raised his arm high and pounded on Minnie's body.
Each punch carried a whistling sound as it landed heavily on Minnie, producing a dull thud.
Minnie cried out in pain, her face contorted instantly, her features scrunched up, her expression filled with agony.
“I… I didn’t mean to…” It managed to squeeze out a few words through clenched teeth, trying to explain.
But Gu Shijiu was completely blinded by anger and wouldn't listen to her explanation at all.
ten minutes later.
Minnie, her face bruised and swollen, sat down on the sofa, which was about the size of a bed, filling it to the brim.
Gu Shijiu sat on the chaise lounge next to her, her feet dangling in the air, listening to Minnie speak, and felt that Minnie was somewhat different from before.
"When I woke up, I had no memory of anything except that I wanted someone to find the ribbon, even though the ribbon was in a drawer in the house."
Minnie's smile seemed to freeze as she was lost in her memories: "I didn't even know who Mickey and Minnie were."
Gradually, some of my memories returned, but none of them had anything to do with this world.
Gu Shijiu didn't understand: "Were you thrown into an amusement park after you lost your memory?"
"Amusement park rides?" Minnie laughed self-deprecatingly. "So, you think this world is just something for fun, but to me, it's the real world."
Gu Shijiu denied it, saying, "It's not just about having fun, it's also dangerous."
Minnie: ...What's with this feeling of talking at cross purposes?
“I don’t think it’s amnesia. This body is probably not my original body either. I think it’s a projection of consciousness or a brain transplant.”
This level of conversation was a bit beyond Gu Shijiu's grasp: "So?"
“So I’m going out!” Minnie said firmly. “Here, I’m just a puppet, and every move I make has to conform to the script.”
"What is a setting?" Gu Shijiu swung her legs, eating the apple pie that Minnie had just baked.
"For example, you have to make the person who comes over look for the bow, or you ask stupid questions when you choose a small cake."
It's like I've been programmed; within the scope of the program, I must perform certain actions.
"It can only act autonomously outside of the set parameters," Minnie explained patiently.
"How are you going to get out?" Gu Shijiu asked casually.
"I tried many methods, such as attacking Mickey, but my settings do not allow me to attack other people in this world;
I tried to team up with others to smash this weird place, but we ultimately failed.
This time, I want to test you outsiders. You can attack us NPCs, and you can also leave.
Can you help me kill everyone else? If all the characters disappear, the world might collapse.
You probably need some play points, right? As payment, I can give you a lot of play points, definitely more generous than that duck.
Minnie laid the groundwork for a few words before making her request.
Gu Shijiu shook his head: "I can't kill people arbitrarily."
“Those people are just NPCs,” Minnie retorted.
“You’re an NPC too.” Gu Shijiu’s answer silenced Minnie for a moment.
"Then, can I go with you?" Minnie asked her second question. "You're sure you can reach the end, and then you can take me away with you."
"You can leave here?" Gu Shijiu remembered that it had just said that it had a program.
"After many attempts, I found that as long as the tasks I issued did not affect the main storyline, they would be approved."
Your main quest is to leave, and I require you to find the bow tie. You cannot leave until you complete this quest.
During this period, my movements will not be greatly restricted.
So, as long as you keep delivering the task of finding the bow, I should be able to be with you.
Once you reach the finish line, I can try to see if we can leave together.
Gu Shijiu didn't dislike having multiple people around her, but she felt it was only right that they should pay her.
She didn't know what time it was outside. Although there was no immediate risk of her having any items taken away, it was always better to be prepared.
That duck is so stingy.
Gu Shijiu thought to herself and secretly complained.
Minnie readily handed over 200 play points: "This is all my assets. I'm just an ordinary character, not as rich as Donald."
Gu Shijiu was somewhat surprised that the other party was willing to spend so much money: "What if we fail?"
"If I fail, I might not survive, and the play points will be useless."
Minnie was very happy to see that Gu Shijiu had accepted the play points.
"I want to try it no matter what." Minnie couldn't help but grin widely, but her eyes were shining.
The two images together make his face look particularly strange.
Gu Shijiu stood up, brushed the debris off her clothes, looked at Minnie, and said, "Let's go then."
Minnie quickly got up from the sofa, her large body surprisingly agile, and she caught up with Gu Shijiu in a few steps.
The two left the dilapidated house and stepped back into the dense forest.
Along the way, Minnie kept looking around, seemingly full of curiosity about everything around her.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the two finally emerged from the forest and found themselves on a wide road leading to a towering castle that seemed to reach into the clouds.
"Is this the next level?" Minnie swallowed hard, her voice trembling slightly.
Gu Shijiu nodded, a hint of wariness in her eyes: "It seems so. Let's go."
Just as they were about to reach the door, the door suddenly opened slowly, and a person dressed in a black robe walked out.
"Outsiders, why have you trespassed into this place?" The black-robed man's voice was deep and cold, as if it came from another world.
Gu Shijiu took a deep breath, stepped forward, and said, "We need to get through here to the next place."
The man in black robes sneered, "Getting through here won't be so easy. You must pass my test, or don't even think about stepping out of this castle."
Minnie, standing behind Gu Shijiu, trembled slightly, but still mustered her courage and said, "Tell me what the test is!"
The man in black robes waved his hand, and a mist immediately appeared inside the castle, from which strange noises could be faintly heard.
"In the fog, there is what you fear most. You must overcome your inner fears in order to pass the test."
