In the dim room, Lin An suddenly sat up and gasped for breath, like a drowning person being dragged ashore, his mind went blank.
The high-frequency buzzing that keeps ringing in the ears is like a replay before death. The weak light and darkness intersect, leaving layers of silhouettes in the retina.
"Calm down! Calm down!"
His chest rose and fell rapidly, and Lin An struggled to swallow. He felt a splitting headache, and a strong sense of death lingered in the air.
Looking at the familiar room and everything around him, Lin An forced himself to calm down.
It's not that he is mentally weak and cannot accept all this, but that at this moment, he is not even sure whether he is still alive or not!
Am I dead or alive!?
Who am I!? Am I Lin An or Guitou!?
Is my head still there? If I die, when did I die!? If I’m not dead, then where is my head!
Too many problems were entangled together, like an invisible spider web, tangled up in him.
After a long time, as a drop of blood dripped from his palm, Lin An slowly stood up, staring at the door in front of him.
"I should have restarted"
"This is the apartment, the entry point. There is no system prompt, is it because time has not been reversed, am I just resurrected and sent back?"
Lin An tried his best to suppress all negative emotions and began to sort out clues.
He must figure out one thing first, that is, whether the head on his neck is still his head!
Taking a deep breath, Lin An slowly touched his cheek. There was no rotten flesh or bones. After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes, feeling a little calmer.
"It's still my head, at least for now."
"If my head was replaced at the beginning of the mission, then the reason for activating the ghost skull could only be cognitive."
"Just like Jiang Haochen, he died immediately after realizing that his head was a ghost skull. It can't be that it was temporarily deactivated, because I came back with memories."
"so"
Lin An put down his hands and took a deep breath.
"So the time when our heads were replaced was in front of the light gate! Instead of "dead" after entering the mission!"
"Hasn't the knowledge been completed? It's not that I imagined that the knowledge will be detected the moment I go out, but the knowledge is insufficient, and I will die when I approach the exit!"
Very simple, but extremely cruel logic.
If the ghost skulls will gradually wake up because of the more information they are exposed to, and detonate in the final headless ghost area.
As for Lin An, he has completed the ghost skull information, and will die at the moment of resurrection! On the other hand, changing heads cannot be unsolvable! If the task has a solution, then there must be a way to make people
The knowledge that one is still alive after a head change.
And this level of cognition is exactly what they lack!
Lin An let out a long breath as his thoughts gradually became clearer, although Guisu's final killing method was extremely terrifying.
But it’s easier to solve if you know where the problem is.
“Where would the missing knowledge be?”
"It can't be from the information we found, and it can't be Qingkai's team."
"Jinniu and I have finished analyzing the information they found. If Qingkai is hiding something,
If we know that the information has not been completed, it is impossible for him to die in front of us! With his character, he will definitely find all the clues, and he will die in front of us. He can only be chased by ghosts, so he has to take a gamble!"
"Then, the only one who knows how to survive without a head is Ender!"
"Jiang Haochen didn't realize what Ander had discovered when he was escaping, or he lacked the information we had and didn't have time to complete it even after reuniting. Of course, the most likely possibility is that he didn't complete any knowledge while he was in the mental hospital.
, and Ender thought of incomplete cognition, but died directly during the test."
“It’s like a puzzle, there’s a piece missing from both sides.”
Lin An frowned, he had already thought of this when he met Jiang Haochen.
It was just that the situation was urgent and he was exhausted from running around, so he could only try hard to complete his knowledge.
"In that case, the information Ender saw is the key."
“How can one live without a head? What kind of knowledge can enable one to live without a head?”
"And what was he missing that caused him to die even though he knew he could live without a head?"
Lin An raised his head and subconsciously looked out the window.
"Mental hospital! As long as we find Ender to complete his knowledge before he dies, theoretically he won't die in the last scene!"
One minute later.
Lin An was carrying a dismantled steel pipe as a spear and looked at the apartment building in amazement.
"Why is there no one?"
"I restarted and went back to before the mission started?"
The surroundings were quiet, and he seemed to be the only one in the city. The apartment building was empty and empty, and the room where the troll and others were located was imprisoned by an inexplicable force, and he couldn't open it even if he wanted to.
There are no task prompts, no countdown, and no system mask.
Faced with such a strange scene, Lin An could only pretend that he was back before the mission began.
Not wanting to waste time here, Lin An took a deep breath, looked back at the building behind him, and planned to rush to the mental hospital first.
Didn't he think about going over and taking a look at the situation near the exit?
If the mission really hasn't started yet, maybe there is no headless ghost there. But after careful consideration, Lin An gave up this tempting plan.
The last exit is most likely the place that caused the ghost skull to change its head. His current knowledge is still incomplete. If he is accidentally killed again, it will really be a waste of restarting.
"It's a good thing the mission hasn't started yet, at least there's no danger."
"Ander and the others are the farthest away from the exit. If everything is as I thought, I can just bring Jiang Haochen and the others back to find Zhang Tie."
Quickly simulate a simple map in your mind.
Taking his current position as the origin, the exit is behind him, in front of him is the studio, then ahead and to the right is the art gallery, and below the art gallery is the mental hospital.
From an efficiency perspective, gathering everyone directly from the mental hospital is indeed the optimal solution.
Soon, I was running wildly.
After passing through a large group of familiar buildings, Lin An finally saw the signboard of the Okayama Prefecture Medical Research Institute Hospital.
But for some reason, before Lin An entered the hospital, he couldn't help but look back at the dark building in the distance.
The dark building is like a carbonized dead tree, sticking straight into the sky.
