All kinds of thoughts were as chaotic as a stray light, and suddenly stopped with a click like an old-fashioned tape recorder cassette.
"Oh?"
Lei Yue blinked and saw that he was already standing in another place, still holding the black and silver heavy pistol in his hand.
He looked around, as if he was on the first floor of Teapot, an old small bar.
Everything was decorated and arranged like a place in an old movie. The floor was littered with large bloodstains covered with dust, and the bloodstains extended to the L-shaped wooden bar.
The bar was full of poured wine glasses, and the drinks had either been drunk or had evaporated.
There were also some messy documents stained with blood and wine stains.
"Ding dong, ding dong?" Lei Yue called several times but received no response.
It was quiet here, as if he was the only one there.
He walked up to the wall facing the bar, because there were four large photos in exquisite frames hanging side by side on the wall.
From left to right, there is a sturdy, middle-aged man wearing sunglasses, holding a military green heavy sniper rifle;
A young woman with extraordinary muscles for a woman, wearing a red vest and combat shorts, carrying a brown automatic rifle;
Then came the shotgun man, wearing an old-time black coat, suit and hat, holding a short-barreled shotgun in both hands;
Then, there was himself, wearing a black leather jacket, ripped jeans, and a pistol.
These photos are all the looks in the variant cards.
The three trump cards are all black and white photos; the ghost card is still in color for the time being:
【√Sniper God】
【√Amazon Female Warrior】
【√Shotgun Man】
【Good Showman】
"Is this... your history?"
Lei Yue looked at the heavy pistol in his hand, "My friend, why are you getting shorter and shorter?"
Except for the shotgun man, he had never heard of the other two former gun owners, and they were not included in various "halls of fame" selected by people.
But he knew that the Shotgun Man was already a very ancient mutant, and that the Amazons and Sniper Gods were obviously even more ancient, and might even be the "Forgotten Ones".
They were gun owners long before the Forgotten World still existed.
But this is just a guess, Lei Yue is not sure.
"Is there anyone there, even a ghost?"
He shouted a few more times and looked around as he walked.
There are no stairs in this bar, only one floor, which is a straight-tube house structure:
There seemed to be an invisible camouflage wall at the front entrance of the bar, and it was blocked by some unknown giant vines, making it impossible for him to just walk out.
There is a hall at the entrance, with a small corridor leading to the back in the middle. There are three rooms on both sides of the corridor, all with gray-white doors.
All six rooms were locked. He violently shook the doors one by one, but none of them moved.
In the room to the left of the entrance to the corridor, his eyes suddenly saw a three-concentric inverted triangle prompt box lighting up on the door like a screen:
The text appears within the innermost triangle:
【Reloaded】
[Enabling the SSS clearance rating of any level X area is required]
"Oh? Is this the mechanism that humans can understand here?"
Lei Yue looked at the prompt box, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that the triangles were twisting and deforming.
The so-called "reloading" is probably the mechanism Ayasa said, which allowed him to understand this "forgotten realm" and this gun.
It seems that getting in touch with the Secret Eye and clearing Area X is the key.
This gun is replenished with 7 bullets after clearing the first game. It can also get its own "winning gold", so it is rated as a type that can grow.
To open those rooms, you must first get the "key/ticket"...
"Is there a gold bar or something in the room? Maybe I don't care whether I can open it or not?"
Lei Yue said to his friend Pistol, walked back to the bar, looked at the dusty mess, and drank the last drink of the last gun owner in a hurry.
It can be seen from these black bloodstains that the Shotgun Man came here when he was dying after the duel with Jack the Ripper.
He picked up one of the scattered documents and looked at it. He recognized the wildly scrawled handwriting on it. It was indeed the shotgun man's own handwriting.
But judging from the information, this was not written by the gunman at the last moment, but during the investigation of Dongzhou:
【I feel we are very close
[Was Jack the Ripper a gang? Or were those people believers?
[I killed a few of them, but Jack didn't die. He's still there. I know that.
[Is Jack the Ripper really a human?]
"So, the men in black robes I faced that day were not all members of Jack the Ripper's gang.
"Some people were killed by the shotgun men earlier, and more people might have died in that duel, so this group of people must have been weakened, otherwise the ritual could have been stronger.
"I wonder if there is anyone left alive..."
Lei Yue continued to look at other documents while talking to the pistol.
Soon, several pieces of information made him frown:
[There were unusual events in Fulong Village many years ago?
[An old TV set was found in a garbage dump and was suspected to be left behind.
[TV can play lost information in the form of "video tapes"
[Dongzhou and the Forgotten World have a special synchronicity!]
"TV set?"
Lei Yue turned his head and scanned the surroundings, and immediately noticed it, his eyes suddenly narrowed.
There is an old-fashioned TV set inside the L-shaped bar near the power socket.
It was an all-in-one TV recorder, with an old black body and a 21-inch small screen. On the right side was a row of knobs for adjusting channels and settings. The cover could be opened from the round top, and inside was the video tape insertion port.
At this time, there was a black VHS video tape placed on the cover.
"How could it be?" Lei Yue whispered, and some memory fragments rushed out from the depths of his mind.
People say that humans lose memories before the age of six. Psychologists call this "infancy amnesia", but they can't explain the specific mechanism.
But at this moment, in his mind, some memories from before the age of six and before the fire were so clear.
This was not the first time Lei Yue saw this TV today.
There was a time when he would turn on this TV every day to watch and play...
"Hello?" Lei Yue said hello to the TV, with a confused and strange smile on his face, "What the hell?"
What kind of day is it today? Not only did Ayasa see a ghost, there were also ghosts from behind who came to catch him.
He walked slowly, getting closer and closer to the dark TV screen, and the memory images became increasingly clear and visible.
When I first saw it, the electronic waste dump in the village had just been established.
Sometimes he and his parents would pass by and see the piles of electrical appliances and parts, and they would feel a child's interest in treasure hunting, as if there was a whole mysterious kingdom there.
Therefore, he is always clamoring to go treasure hunting, and his parents will pamper him and take him for a few rounds when they have time.
There was nothing special about that day. He found this TV set in a corner of the garbage dump. For some reason, he just liked it so much that he insisted on taking it away.
Because his parents love him, they bought this piece of electronic waste for no money, so they bought it as he wished and took it home. They probably just wanted it to be used as a toy to take apart and play with.
Unexpectedly, when I went back and plugged it in, the TV could still be used normally.
Moreover, there was a box of old videos left in the video tape insertion port.
