Chapter 440 [Toy War] Pixel World
"I still found you. I was worried that you were lost..."
Seeing the visitor, Gao Yi raised his rabbit and said hello.
He waited here calmly, and naturally he would take the initiative to approach when he figured it out.
After all, as a "personal bodyguard", this is the other party's job.
On the other hand, although he didn't know how Guan Shi did it, Gao Yi was very sure that he had the corresponding tracking ability.
Think about it, after all, he is an "agent" of the [Commander], and tracking targets is a necessary ability.
When Guan entered this "fake kitchen", he did not respond to Gao Yi's greeting.
He just checked whether the door was closed and quickly checked around the room before standing still in front of Gao Yi:
"I'm sorry, the situation was a bit unexpected at the time, and I didn't take appropriate measures, which resulted in you being left alone."
Guan Shi seemed to be apologizing, but he still looked cold and his voice had no emotional ups and downs.
"Why don't you have time to go back in time? Can't you use your ability?" Gao Yi also took the opportunity to ask about his previous doubts.
"Yes, that was my fault."
Guan Shi still answered quite seriously, seeming to be a little concerned about not being able to "stay together".
However, this concern does not come from worry about Gao Yi, but from self-blame for failing to complete the [Commander] mission.
It can be seen that Guan Shi is really concerned about the [Commander]'s mission.
Gao Yi on the other side didn't care about the emotion at all. He just stared at Guan Shi's face for a while and then patted his thigh:
"That's wrong!"
"...What's wrong?"
Startled by the sudden rise in emotions of the people around him, Guan Shi became visibly nervous.
Gao Yi, on the other hand, explained very seriously:
"According to the normal plot in comics, at this time, a beautiful bodyguard should not be punished by her boss for work mistakes. As an employer, should I offer amnesty to the world..."
Seeing Guan Shi's speechless look on the other side, he raised his hand slightly and brought the topic back to normal.
"It's okay if you don't... Tell me what happened to you and why you suddenly disappeared with those people."
It's no wonder that Gao Yi suddenly started talking incomprehensible words again. It was really to maintain the character of [Investigator-Rabbit], and he couldn't even complain.
It’s hard to catch someone acting in front of someone you don’t need, why don’t you relax a bit...
In any case, when Seki Toki, the male form of Seki Toki, recovered from the shock caused by Gao Yi's words, the story of his encounter on the "first night" was finally revealed.
"That's what happened in an instant. From the moment I watched you move forward to the moment I entered a certain 'space', just such an instant passed."
As Guan Shi spoke, he clapped his hands together, as if he wanted to use this action to express the shortness of that "moment":
"And the 'space' I entered completely changed my form."
Without waiting for Gao Yi to ask questions, he added again:
"It's not the change of my gender, but the transformation of my whole person into the shape of pixels..."
After Guan Shi's detailed description, Gao Yi gradually understood.
When Guan was teleported into another space, everything around him became pixelated, and his entire body turned into an unclear pixel villain—not Terraria or Undertale. That kind of thing.
It is closer to the 1980s and 1990s, due to the limitations of the development of graphics technology and electronic equipment, and the extremely "simple" pixel image.
Yes, it's roughly on the same level as "Jelly Bean Man".
The entire body was simplified like that, and Guan Shi was naturally unable to make any "turning the wrist" movements, and various abilities were sealed in disguise.
Of course, he is not the only one in this state.
The two criminals from the Investigation Bureau who were teleported in at the same time, as well as the mysterious amorphous player, also became in the same state.
Interestingly, they can also communicate.
Although you cannot make any sound when you open your mouth to speak, the content you want to express will appear in the form of white bubbles above your head.
"But apart from the two Investigation Bureau players we know, we don't have much communication."
Speaking of this, Guan Shi added.
And Gao Yi also suppressed the urge to complain, "You don't know how to communicate with others, this is an improvement." and asked what happened next.
For four pixelated players, as in the example above, they played a "mini-game".
"To put it simply, a chicken-shaped doll came out, took out a pink cake picture, and motioned for us to look for it..."
"Wait a moment."
Before he could finish speaking, Gao Yi interrupted his narration and confirmed:
"Is the chicken-shaped doll you are talking about dressed in yellow, with two paws, and a wisp of hair on its head?"
After getting a positive answer, the identity of the doll "Chicken Chica" can also be determined.
The four people who were teleported in were all near Chica in "Restaurant World".
After entering the "Pixel World", they also encountered the same doll.
Is this a coincidence?
No, there is a high probability that there is some connection...
However, Gao Yi didn't get too entangled at this time and just motioned to Guan Shi to continue talking.
But what happened next was actually not so interesting.
After Guan Shi accepted the task, he began to look around in a restaurant in the "pixel world".
It is worth noting that since they are in a pixel-style mini-game, their actions are actually only "up and down" and "left and right".
In other words, that "pixel world" only has X-axis and Y-axis, but no Z-axis.
To put it more directly, the Terraria mentioned above is still the type where mining and building houses are not possible.
Under this premise, the search is not complicated.
"After wandering around for about ten minutes, I found the pink cake in a small room - the cake had eyes..."
Guan Shi also skipped boring topics and went straight to the ending without forgetting to tell the key information:
"The two people from the Investigation Bureau were obviously frightened. They didn't know what was going on, and they didn't move much. But the player who could change his form seemed to have come in deliberately, as if he was looking for something - it wasn't that Something about pink cake.”
This is not too unimaginable, the mysterious player obviously has his own purpose.
Now it seems that the emergence of this "pixel world" is inseparable from it.
Of course, this is not something that can be studied and solved at the moment.
As Seki Toki tells it, the story finally comes to the moment when he returns the pink cake to Chicken Chica.
The truth about the copy became clear again.
