Ten minutes earlier, following the streams cara, we would arrive at the comrcial complex.
Muscular was already gone sowhere, and the rest of the Missiontakers have split into two, one looking for their missing utility card, while this group left the apartnt building altogether.
X Beijin chose to focus on Thin, the teenage girl and Shen Ynj mostly because he is still rather curious about the expression Shen Ynj once showed towards the comrcial complex.
They found nothing useful about the apartnt building, and decided to head towards the comrcial complex, when Shen Ynj showed that strange look on his face again.
He could feel that sothing unreasonable, terrifying was approaching him, so he was restless, agitated, fearful, but he had to hold back from showing it, lest the monster notices and rushed his way.
Thin and the teenage girl were preoccupied talking about sothing else, anwhile, on things regarding this Nightmare.
They basically knew what was happening in this Nightmare, but have yet to discover the Nightmares owner or found out anything about the Ending of the Nightmare.
Thin complained, if only we knew it wasnt an empty house
Just like Lin Qin, they thought the house next to X Beijins in the Tower was empty.
The Tower resident moved away a few days ago, and nobody expected a new resident would have moved in without so much as a noise barely a few days in?
So they have basically been surprise-included into this Nightmare.
Watch your words, the teenage girl uttered coldly, regarding this Nightmare I might have heard sothing about it.
Thins eyes sparkled and he turns to take a glance at Shen Ynj, seeing if he was far enough away that the girl could just tell him then and there, only to notice his lingering fear and being so distracted that he didnt even notice Thin looking at him.
Thin went hesitant.
They were at the comrcial complexs entrance already, theyll be inside in a mont.
Thin asked,
are you alright?
Shen Ynj was looking up at the electronic display of the comrcial building when he answered with such a gravelly voice, no
Both Thin and the teenage girl paused.
Shen Ynj bitter smiled, saying, not doing too well.
Thin thought carefully about what words to say, and asks, uh If its sothing about the Nightmare Of course, were not necessarily forcing you
Shen Ynj looked up at the comrcial building and said with this dream-like, floating kind of tone, Ive been here
Thin and the girl both looked shocked
In the stream, X Beijin was quite visibly shaken just hearing that too. He glanced at the comnt barrage where the viewers were now speculating that the young man might have been to this Nightmare already But X Beijin was anxious.
Clearly, Shen Ynj wasnt talking about the Nightmare, or even the Tower, but
on Earth, Shen Ynj finished his sentence, Ive been to this place on Earth.
Now even the viewers in the stream are in shock, woah, what did he an?
he ant the artists of this ga were so lazy they ported buildings on earth directly into the ga! there might even be copyright issues!
so, hes basically a physical cheat? [doge emoji]
as a usual player, id like to express my disdain at this behaviour ga companies, plz look at buildings ive been to!!!
The viewers have veered off the rails completely to laugh at themselves, completely failing to realise what implications Shen Ynjs words carried.
X Beijin was truly relieved the detective dalao was absent then, and wasnt here to watch the stream.
Otherwise, when he had the clues of a host-only ga plus what the players assert to have once seen these on Earth, he may co to rather unfortunate conclusions.
At least, X Beijin could co up with unfortunate conclusions.
His expression was changing a lot as he stared at the young man in the screen This should be impossible.
Thats impossible! Thin almost looked like he was stung by a hornet, loudly disagreeing, how could buildings on Earth be in the Nightmare?!
Even the usually calm and collected teenage girl had her face contorted and muttering sothing to herself.
Shen Ynj chuckled coldly out of reflex. He just told them he had once been to this comrcial complex on Earth. He hasnt even told them that he could not find out where this feeling of familiarity ca from in any of his mories.
He was certain he had been here, but he could rember nothing more, so he believed His mories, were faulty.
He didnt dare say anything about this, though.
He didnt dare face the issue or share this issue with anyone else, because everyone knew that the Server, NE, was monitoring them 24/7.
There have always been rumours in the Tower, or rather, conspiracies in the Tower, that involve NE.
A common the among them is that there is so kind of unseen hand moving things behind it all, monitoring them through the ans known as NE.
Even though NE is just an artificial intelligence, whether it could recognise itself as being an accomplice in such a terrible act is yet another question, but the Server, undoubtedly, is monitoring everything in Nightmares around the clock.
There was a mont when Shen Ynj really was going to talk about the problem with his mories, because he alone could never ever shoulder such a hefty, horrifying truth, and he needed to share, no matter what, he did not want to face this truth alone.
Yet fear has made him give up on the idea.
For the current Shen Ynj, whether he said it out loud or not, it would seem so terrifying fate was awaiting him, regardless. Thats why, in the end, he said part of the truth.
The other part may, one day, end up driving him mad.
X Beijin gave a good, hard look at this rigid, pale young man. He was also curious about what this young man knew. If he has already told them everything that gripped him, then why was he still so fearful?
Also, the other question, just like the audience has said, what if this comrcial area was really just a product of laziness, of deciding to borrow sothing from sowhere in reality? Why could that not be a possibility?
This was a simple, straightforward enough conclusion, easy to make, since all in all, this was just a ga.
So What was it that Shen Ynj feared?
