  Chapter 8 The Connotation of Role Playing

  Puff!

   The two slammed into the sea.

   It was originally a parachute for one person, and it was a bit reluctant to carry the weight of two people.

  In an instant, Yi Rin felt like he was smashed onto the concrete floor from a height of more than ten meters. At the moment when he fell into the sea, his limbs seemed to fall apart. Yi Rin opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of foamy blood.

   The broken rib seemed to be pierced deeper with the impact.

   Health hits bottom immediately, only 5% left!

  If you didn’t drink that bottle of expired coconut milk…

  Consequences, needless to say.

  In the icy waters, Irin endured the severe pain in her body, took off her wingsuit, and then floated back to the sea with the buoyancy of the life jacket.

   Right in front of Yi Rin, the beautiful woman in professional attire struggled and fluttered on the sea.

  Grumbling…

  Irin looked at the beautiful woman who was drenched and fluttering in front of her eyes with a calm expression.

  Suddenly, Yi Rin smiled slightly: "Have you ever thought about why you didn't receive a notification that the mission was completed after you got a really safe parachute and jumped out of the plane?"

  Grumbling…

   Beauty seems to have heard Irin's words.

   But somehow, she got another mouthful of seawater.

   She is obviously a great swimmer…

   But this water, something doesn't seem right.

   "Have you ever wondered why life jackets appeared in three of the five boxes?"

   "Actually, this is the most intimate reminder..."

   "Life jackets are a must for survival!"

   "No matter what position and angle you use to skydive, you will end up in the sea!"

  Irin took a deep breath, her lungs hurt.

   "Perhaps because you are also a beautiful woman in reality, you didn't realize that in this trial, we were 'role-playing', playing unfamiliar roles..."

   "You don't seem to notice that all the windows on this plane don't reflect our faces..."

   "According to my many years of experience, there must be a reason for taking the 'role-playing' mode in the mission..."

   "Like adding a little harmless negative attribute to these 'characters'..."

   "For example...afraid of heights?"

  Irin coughed a few times, blood spilling from the corners of his mouth again.

  The beauty finally stopped fluttering, her eyes were full of despair, and she slowly sank to the bottom of the sea.

   "Another example... weak water?"

  grunt…

   On the sea level not far from Irin, several small blisters appeared.

   "Even if you are a good swimmer, it's useless."

   After a few minutes.

  Irin floated on the icy sea.

   Until no more blisters come out in front of you.

  …

  【Prepare Apostle 997, Die】

  【Prepare Apostle 1010 and complete the main quest: Escape! 】

   In this second, the world in front of Yi Rin was completely frozen.

   is like time being stopped.

   Looking down again, Yi Rin found himself standing on the sea level, the surging waves, the fire and smoke from the explosion of the plane in the distance, the sky, the stars, and the desperate and frightened expression of the beauty who sank into the sea...

  All things stand still, forming a beautiful picture.

   At this moment, Irin seems to be outside the world, observing this small world as a bystander.

   It was only at this moment that Irin completely relaxed and let out a slow breath.

"it is finally over."

  【The clearance evaluation is being calculated...】

  【Evaluation: S】

  “!”

  【Total attribute value reward +0.8! 】

  【According to the performance of the Apostle 1010 trial allocation...】

  [Strength+0.2, Agility+0.3, Spirit+0.4, Will+0.1, Luck-0.1, Charisma-0.1…]

  Irin: "???"

   Charisma and Luck Attributes actually...not increased but decreased?

what happened?

  Irin has never encountered such a bizarre situation!

  For everyone, luck and charm are inherent attributes that can hardly be changed.

   Methods such as plastic surgery may be able to slightly change the charm value.

   Of course, the attractiveness value is not entirely related to the face.

   In short, in most cases, these two inherent properties are difficult to change.

   That's why Irin was so surprised.

  …

  【Death point reward is being settled...】

  【Difficulty bonus: none】

  【Evaluation bonus: 30%】

  【Get Death Point: 1300! 】

  【Now draw random rewards! 】

  …

  Irin's mind is full of question marks now.

   But Irin swallowed the doubts temporarily, and concentratedly waited for the result of the reward drawing.

  【Get "Ordinary Lifesaving Hammer"! 】

  【Get the skill "Mind Shock"! 】

  【Get the qualification of "First-Order Apostle"! 】

  Suddenly, a piercing pain came from Irin's chest.

   As if there was a red-hot branding iron somewhere, it slammed **** his chest, causing Yi Rin to sweat coldly from the pain.

   After a few seconds, the piercing pain came and went quickly.

  Irin lifted her clothes and stared blankly at her chest.

   There is a grey mark like a tattoo.

   is a hideous skull.

   comes to life.

  【Unlock "Storage Space"! 】

  【Unlock the "communication function"! 】

  【Level Up…】

  【Congratulations to the first-order apostles for reaching the fourth floor of the Tower of Death. 】

  【Current Level: LV4】

  【Return! 】

  …

   Irin's eyes flashed, and the still picture completely disappeared from her eyes.

  Before leaving, Yi Rin glanced down at the beautiful woman in business attire frozen on the seabed, her terrified eyes.

   Among the five preparatory apostles, only Yiren left this mission world alive.

   Preparing for the apostle's trial mission, "The Tomb of the Newcomers", really lived up to its reputation.

  …

  When Irin came back to his senses again, he returned to the darkness.

   A faint smell of blood penetrated into Irin's nose.

   is the smell of Henry Zhang’s blood.

   Yi Rin's eyes fell on the clock on the wall of Henry Zhang's house.

time…

   No more, no less.

   Exactly a minute.

   No matter how long you have experienced in the inner world, in the real world, it is only a short minute.

  Irin rubbed his chest, but there was no discomfort.

   But he always felt that there still seemed to be the pain of being scorched by the brand.

   is like burning on the soul.

   "It seems that the ribs... have been repaired." Irin felt the change in her body and muttered to herself: "This is also one of the benefits of the newcomer's mission... In the future, it will not be so easy."

   While saying that, Irin checked the surroundings three times, and after confirming that there were no flaws left, he quietly left here. Because of the fear of the butterfly effect, Yi Rin has not dared to interact with other people in the past three years that is not in line with the previous rebirth, nor did he dare to make more detailed preparations. critical.

   In the darkness, only Henry Zhang's icy corpse remained. But from now on, Yi Rin no longer needs to worry about the impact of the butterfly effect. After all, Henry Zhang's death will definitely change the "future" completely.

  No one knows that the person who died here is a terrible person who will become the nightmare of countless people in four years.

   Next, there is only the troublesome aftermath.

   When I got home, it was early morning.

   It took Irin a lot of time to deal with the traces left behind.

  In this day and age, there are actually many ways to deal with corpses. For example, chop it into meat sauce and flush it down the drain, but no matter what, it will be discovered sooner or later, it is only a matter of time.

   Yi Rin didn't expect this matter to be kept hidden forever, but as long as the delay is long enough, after a certain period of time, the follow-up effects of Henry Zhang's death will no longer be a troublesome matter.

  Irin took a hot bath comfortably, and then lay down on the bed.

  Irin began to recall the whole process over and over again.

   From here to Henry Zhang’s house, he avoided all the cameras as much as possible, which was the route he had set a year ago.

   Heavy rain can wash away more than 90% of the traces.

   Tight windbreakers, masks, gloves, fingerprints, hair, and footprints are all impossible to leave behind.

   During the whole process, after Yiren confirmed that there were no flaws, he began to sort out the gains in the trial level.

first of all…

   "Apostle Panel."
