Chapter 113

If he came by himself and encountered this kind of fog of unknown origin, he wouldn't dare to dive in at all.

Controlling the drunkard into the fog, the scene around him changed instantly.

The location is still underground, but it is not the original underground passage, but an underground town that has been reduced to ruins.

The remains of the building were scattered everywhere, the corpses of the earth servants Yaqi could be seen everywhere, and the air was filled with the pungent stench of blood.

The Aqir woman, covered in blood, fell to the ground, sobbing and desperately trying to grab something with her hands.

Lu Lin couldn't see clearly what was in front of her, and almost subconsciously, the drunkard's body began to move forward.

Gradually, the woman's cries began to become clearer.

Vaguely, Lu Lin heard something that sounded like a name for a human cub.

He also gradually saw clearly what the woman was desperately trying to grasp.

It was a black mist.

In the black mist, there were actually two swaddled babies floating inside.

The woman desperately reached out to the two babies, but her legs seemed to be broken and she could not stand up at all. Her hands could not reach the two swaddled babies at all.

"Did Black Mist steal her child? Are those two children the pair of girls? Is Black Mist's true form the lich here?"

Lu Lin suddenly had this suspicion in his mind, but when he walked closer, he was surprised to find that the situation seemed to be somewhat different from what he thought.

For what came from the woman's mouth were not supplications, but curses and cursings.

"Two damn cubs, damn twins, it's all your fault. It's you who brought this disaster. I should have known better. I should have strangled you to death when you two were born!"

She waved her hands desperately.

"You killed my lover! Killed all my family! Destroyed my home! You destroyed everything! You two scoundrels! I curse you! You deserve to die! You..."

Before she finished speaking, the woman's body suddenly froze, and then she suddenly covered her throat, her eyes rolled up, and then her orifices began to bleed. After struggling on the ground for a while in a rather strange posture, she stopped. To generate interest.

At the same time, two loud cries rang out in the black mist. The cries caused violent vibrations of magic power, which actually caused the entire cave to collapse.

As the cave collapsed, the scenery around the drunkard also began to fade and fade. When he regained consciousness, the scene of underground passages had once again appeared around him.

Lu Lin opened his eyes suddenly, with a look of astonishment on his face.

"Huh? What's wrong? What did you see?" Silly asked doubtfully.

"I...I saw a scene that should be from the past," Lu Lin said, telling Sili what he saw.

The latter frowned for a long time before speaking: "About this, I have indeed heard a legend. It is said that the Yaqi people and their sub-races almost never have twins."

"The reason seems to be related to their origin, but I don't know the details. Even among the Yaqi people, there are very few people who know their origin."

"However, if twin babies are born among the Yaqi people, it will definitely lead to disaster."

"But that's not because of any curse or unlucky statement, but because Yaqir twins often possess overly powerful magical talents and have difficulty controlling their own power when they are young."

"So, they can easily bring destruction to the ethnic group unintentionally, and after exposing their talents, they will be feared by the hostile forces in their hometown, so they may also trigger war..."

"As for the twins...if the illusion is real, then their luck is extremely bad, and they actually directly attracted a lich."

"But then again, if they are a bunch of Yaqi twins, it would be incomprehensible if they could produce such a huge magical power."

"But...the truth should refer to more than just this, right?"

"Well," Lu Lin nodded, "This should be just the beginning. Now, in front of the road over there is the next fog."

Chapter 187 It’s just a puppet show

Lu Lin closed his eyes again.

And the drunkard also walked into the next fog.

This time, the surrounding scene was much brighter.

It's even too bright, and it's dazzling.

At this time, deep in the veins of a high-concentration magic crystal mine, the surroundings were actually filled with magic crystals emitting high-concentration blue light.

Lu Lin once mined in Diling Town and saw a magic crystal mine.

But compared with the environment here, the magic crystal mines in Diling Town are too loosely distributed and the texture is too turbid.

Lu Lin saw that the black mist from before was also here now, and the two babies were still in the black mist.

The black mist floated to the deepest part of the magic crystal mine, and then actually controlled the two babies and placed them under a giant magic crystal ore.

As the swaddling clothes touched the ground, the two babies cried again, and the magic vibration caused by the crying reverberated underground. But this time, there was no storm, only the magic crystal mines, and their light became dim. It's just more dazzling.

With one step, the drunkard walked out of the fog again, and then after taking only two more steps, he stepped into another fog.

What appeared all around was still the scene in the mine, but at this time, the two babies had grown up a little, and they both looked like they were about three or four years old.

They were chasing each other and playing in the cave, while Black Mist was staying by a bonfire, roasting several rodent corpses.

"Black Mist again... No, this thing is probably not fog, but some kind of 'mosaic'?" Lu Lin suddenly had this idea in his mind.

In fact, when this happened, the Black Mist should actually be the lich here.

And the following scene also confirmed Lu Lin's guess.

Although they were still very young, the two children had already learned to speak, and would run to the fire from time to time to ask the Black Mist if he had eaten well.

They asked several rounds, and each time it seemed as if they received an answer before running away again, but Lu Lin had never heard the Black Mist make a sound.

It seems that not only the appearance, but also the voice of this lich master does not want to be revealed to others.

The girls ran back and forth several times, and finally, the barbecue seemed to be ready. Black Mist "took" the barbecue and shared it with the two girls. The two little girls immediately smiled happily, sat down, and enjoyed the crude barbecue with a look of enjoyment.

If he hadn't seen their previous experiences and knew their future fate, looking at them chatting and laughing now, perhaps Lu Lin would really think that this was such a warm scene.

Just when Lu Lin secretly cursed the lich for not being a son of man, suddenly, the expressions of the two girls changed.

They looked in the direction of Black Mist in panic, and one of the girls asked directly: "Dad, are you leaving?"

The moment he heard this name, Lu Lin felt that his hair stood on end, and a feeling of nausea instantly surged in his stomach.

This damn lich actually pretended to be the father of these two girls?

And...

He was going to leave?

Leaving two girls who were only three or four years old in such a place, and then planning to leave?

In that case, can these two girls still survive?

He watched the two girls beg the shadow to stay, but the shadow kept going further and further away, and finally disappeared completely at the end of the mine.

The two girls chased after it, but they looked left and right, and they didn't understand where the shadow had gone.

Lu Lin thought that he might have teleported away.

Or maybe the one who stayed here was not his real body, but just a soul clone, and now he just dispersed the clone.

The girls couldn't find the black fog, and they were anxious. They ran around for a long time, and even cried anxiously.

It was also when they were crying that Lu Lin felt that the scene around him seemed to have changed.

It was as if everything was speeding up.

Lu Lin thought this was a sign that he was about to leave the fog, but soon he found that it was not the case, but the scene in front of him was actually speeding up.

He saw the two girls crying in panic, but soon they seemed to cheer up and began to try to find a way out of here.

But after searching for a long time, they finally found that there was no way out. The entire mine was completely closed, and the few passages were interconnected. No matter how they went around, they would only return here.

Then, they seemed to accept all this and began to try to survive here.

Although they were really young, they had a strong magical talent after all. Their physical fitness was far superior to that of their peers, and they could even use some simple magic with their talent.

They began to try to hunt rodents in the cave or look for food in the underground lake in the mine as they did in the past.

Although life was hard, at least they had a companion and could rely on each other.

They acted together every day, like a shadow, slept together every night, and often had smiles on their faces.

It seemed that their life could even be called "happy".

But...

Lu Lin knew very well that this happiness was only temporary.

Then, when the two girls were about seven or eight years old, when they were roasting rodent meat together, talking and laughing as usual, the disappeared black fog reappeared.

At the same time as the black fog appeared, the scene around the drunkard began to fade, and then it returned to the passage.

But this time, it was no longer an ordinary passage and fog in front of it, but it could be seen from afar that at the end of the passage, there seemed to be two huge crystal eggs that were crystal clear.

The drunkard continued to move forward. There was no fog in front of him, but inexplicably, the more he walked, the darker his vision became.

When he came to his senses, the surrounding scene changed again.

It turned into a dark secret room.

In the secret room, there was a table, with a girl sitting on one side and a vague black fog on the other side.

Then, he heard the girl speak.

"Dad, you mean... if we all choose 'happiness', we will all die? But... why is it like this?"

As soon as these words came out, Lu Lin's eyebrows jumped immediately.

Choice?

Secret room?

Will everyone die if they make the same choice?

It's actually a prisoner's dilemma?

Lu Lin really wanted to hear what Black Mist would say, but unfortunately, he still couldn't hear Black Mist's voice.

Fortunately, the girl spoke again, and seemed to find it difficult to accept the current situation, so she repeated part of Black Mist's words.

"Is this our fate? Ah? This... I don't understand, but as long as we all choose suffering, we can continue to live here together, right?"

"Ah? Get out? We really want to leave here. After all, dad, the stories about the outside that you once told us were so exciting..."

"I know that if one person chooses suffering and the other chooses happiness, the person who chooses happiness can leave, but the other person will have to suffer endless torture, right? I am not willing to let Xiao Ai suffer for myself."

"Huh? Huh? Dad, what are you talking about? Xiao Ai will also choose suffering. I believe her."

"Well, I choose suffering, I'm sure."

The girl's speech was very clear, clearly unlike a child who grew up in such a closed environment.

Perhaps, this is also brought about by their talents.

They are all very smart.

They depend on each other.

If it were just a prisoner's dilemma of this level, they would definitely choose suffering...

Can……

Lu Lin waited, and sure enough, soon after the girl left, another girl walked in.

She seemed to be asked the same question, and then, just as Lu Lin expected, she gave the same answer.

But at this moment, what Lu Lin was worried about happened.

Black mist seemed to say something, and then the second girl's smile froze on her face.

"No, it's impossible..." Her voice was trembling, "Dad, you lied to me, right? Xiaoyuan, how could she choose 'happiness'? No, I don't believe it..."

"Sure enough, it's here," Lu Lin sighed.

Yes, this is a rough and crude prisoner's dilemma of the lowest form.

But the problem is.

The makers of the rules never intended to play the game according to the rules.

"No! I don't believe it! I want to ask Xiaoyuan directly!"

The girl said and was about to run out.
