"haven't seen you for a long time."

This is the first sentence Zhao Yan conveyed to Gu Yisheng through the computer.

There are four extremely simple words, but these are probably the four words that best express his current mood and state.

“We have plenty of time.”

Zhao Yanru said, "In words you can understand, the space we are in now should be called a 'barren mezzanine', and the time here is completely independent from the outside world."

"What does time mean?"

"No, it's not still." Zhao Yan replied through the computer: "I said it's independence."

He explained: "You can understand that there are two movies that play at the same time. Their content may be related, but their timelines are not affected. It is possible that one can play quickly and the other can play slowly, and one ends and the other starts playing again. Can you understand?"

After seeing Gu Yisheng nodding, Zhao Yan shook his "sharp claws". Gu Yisheng found that his movements were not so sensitive. It seemed that he had not touched a computer for a while.

As if he felt that he was not efficient enough, Zhao Yan raised a finger and signaled Gu Yisheng to wait. He quickly operated the computer. Various windows and numbers quickly popped out of the computer screen. About two minutes later, Zhao Yan pressed the computer cover down, and he turned to Gu Yisheng and placed the laptop on his knees.

"Ahem, can you hear it?"

A familiar voice sounded, very stiff, and even had the smell of electronic synthesized sound.

"certainly."

Gu Yisheng squeezed out a smile with difficulty. Zhao Yan's behavior made her feel that she was talking to her a potential electronic ghost, which was not a good feeling.

"I haven't spoken for too long, and I'm afraid I'll stutter." He complained: "To be honest, I really didn't expect that there would be a chance to meet you or even have a conversation."

He looked at Gu Yisheng, but his voice came from the computer: "Sister Gu, if you have any questions, you can pour out all of them. We have enough time... But there are some answers I may not know, so don't beat me up then."

"Uh." Gu Yisheng pulled a stool and sat opposite the mechanical fox. After hesitating for two seconds, she asked, "How are you doing?"

After five or six seconds of silence, Zhao Yan spoke out three words.

"It's okay."

Then he explained: "To be honest, I was very uncomfortable at first... I didn't even know why I became a doll. In short, when I woke up, my body had already become like this. I couldn't speak, couldn't feel pain and hunger. My eyes turned into cameras, and there was a buzzing sound when I opened my mouth."

"At that time, my mind was very unclear, and there seemed to be another consciousness remaining in my brain. The control of this body was not 100% in my hands. Sometimes it would be taken over. In that case, I left the settlement of the cage area and entered the maze area."

"Brother Xu and the others have been looking for you..." Gu Yisheng said in a low voice.

Zhao Yan nodded: "I know, but there is no way. After leaving the settlement, I quickly discovered the problem in my body."

He said, "Your brother should have told you about Li Yu, it's that golden Freddy bear."

After seeing Gu Yisheng nodding, he continued, "Little Bird You Liu... I think you should be very familiar with this person, right?"

He raised a sharp claw and slashed rhythmically in the air: "If I hadn't been able to completely control and adapt to my new body at that time, and when I met his people, the end result would be locked in an iron cage and wait for mold, just like Li Yu."

"Before, we always thought that he was just a very capable experimenter, and he seemed to have been trying to explore...the origin of the edge."

"Yes, it used to be like this." Zhao Yan replied: "Until he discovered something that wasn't right during the fumble."

Gu Yisheng's body was shocked. She thought of the news that Xu Qing told her after entering the innovation base, related to the profiteering business. She murmured: "Related to permissions?"

"That's right."

The fox doll's two eyes flashed with cold light. Gu Yisheng could see his reflection from it. He only heard Zhao Yan say: "He used some means we don't know to tie the line with the managers."

"Managers?"

"Yes." Zhao Yan signaled Gu Yisheng to come to the side of the terminal machine. He raised a claw and pressed it on the virtual light screen. After a large amount of data flow passed, several photos appeared on the light screen.

"In order to share the pressure when managing the marginal world, general managers are classified and customized according to a template, that is, every two managers are in a group."

He pointed to the photo of the Lotus duo and said: "They were the earliest managers, at least in the scheduled state, but they were eventually abandoned for some reasons, but there was an accident in the process of abandonment, so they still retained some permissions, and they existed in the marginal world like advanced viruses."

Then there are the two brothers Zede: "The second batch of managers who are put into use, after reaching their service life, are deprived of their authority and reset to ordinary roles."

Zhao Yan pointed to another photo, where there were two women with close eyes, similar appearances but completely different temperaments: "This is the allusion taken by the current administrators, Lilith and Eve, from the Bible story... Of course, it may just happen that they found Dr. Zede privately and tried to restore part of their authority."

Speaking of this, he wiped the information from the light screen, but his fingers switched to another picture.

"Eye of All-knowing?"

Gu Yisheng immediately recognized the pattern on it.

"Probably, it's a thing printed on the dollar." Zhao Yan said unhappily: "Even managers, they have a lot of things they have come into contact with and not touched. Those things are based on their authority and are also related to the real roots of the entire world."

“For example…”

"For example, Mukov Company." Zhao Yan replied: "The fraud plan is not foolproof. It does bring great deterrence when it is executed. Players' habits are the best cover. The initial experimenters' prisoner identity was also registered in the "edge" world rules, which made the higher-level consciousness believe that we regard this world as an amusement park and a arena for punishing prisoners."

"But these consciousnesses also have a backhand." Zhao Yan put his claws on his laptop again: "Just like this Mukfu company, which is not seen at the head, but the entire setting they are in has obvious functionality. When they are touched, some permission rules will be modified."

He pointed to Gu Yisheng and pointed to himself: "The most common rule is to use our own settings... Anyone who has no authority but has contact with deep secrets will be divided into the ranks of prisoners, so there are more and more experimenters."

"To further confirm this, they condoned the mutation in this mission."

"And in order to prevent managers such as Lotus from causing irreversible situations, it is very likely that newer managers have been put into this place." Zhao Yan's voice became low and weird: "Sister Gu, it's not Lotus who brought you here."

...

The black mist seemed to be broken through by a long dragon, and a hole the size of a human head appeared in an instant in Gubin's Varried's body.

This damage caused his Valred's body to shake violently, but instead of changing his figure to get rid of such an attack, he lifted his right arm that turned into a scimitar and slashed hard on the "arm" that pierced him.

A force almost bounced away his attack. I don't know how many times it was. Gu Bin felt that the mixed ghost in front of him was covered with rubber all over his body, and it was also super rubber suitable for all fields. The weapons he changed after Val Reed's transformation could not effectively break its body.

In the state of energy, everything in Gu Bin's eyes became the same.

At this moment, in his eyes, the previous ground, railings, ceiling and the lights emitting dim lights two meters away turned into lines and complex lines.

The only thing that remains the same is the ghost in front of him.

But Gu Bin saw a large number of thin lines that were loomingly connected to the ghost's body, which made it look like a puppet controlled by this ghost house.

"Ah!" Gu Bin turned the long sword in his left hand and used the "righteous energy" effect on it to stab the tip of the sword diagonally towards the arm that pierced through him. The tip of the sword barely broke through the surface. Then, its progress was greatly hindered. Under the pressure of the two forces, the sword body of the scholar's sword was forced into a terrifying arc.

Seeing that he barely fixed the other party's arm, Gu Bin gritted his teeth and turned the scimitar in his right hand, cutting the blade across the arm, and the black mist attached to the thin energy lines like a locust gnawing on the food.

The same state also appears in every position on its body, which is where Gu Bin once hit.

"hiss!"

The face belonging to Su Rui suddenly made a very thin sound of air thrust. Then, the ghost body of "lisa" was separated again. This time, most of its body had already emerged from Su Rui's "skin". The scene can be said to be at its peak.

"Come on!" Gu Bin roared, and he twisted his body and stabbed the long sword in his left hand towards the wall. He used an extremely violent attitude to penetrate the sword blade through Su Rui's arm, and then fixed it on the walls made of energy lines.
