NFBE Chapter 262 I really like him.
Chapter 262 I really like him.
Chapter 262, 0723 likes him very much.
When Qi Min thought he was about to die, he figured that since he was going to die anyway, he couldn't just waste the points he still had.
Then he thought of the ghost baby who liked to eat his candy, and since the barefoot boy knew it, he used his points to randomly redeem a candy in the shop.
This can be considered as repaying the life-saving grace it had previously shown me.
'But what's going on now?'
'Am I not dead?'
Qi Min stared at the ceiling, then at the ghost baby still sitting on his chest, eating candy, his thoughts slightly sluggish.
After he reached an agreement with Lin Yuan and the others on the cooperation, he immediately began to act according to the plan.
However, as he collected more and more information, Qi Min became increasingly resistant to carrying out the second plan.
Later, he tentatively asked Lin Yuan if he had obtained any other information before this hidden side quest.
Lin Yuan saw that he seemed to be just asking out of curiosity, or perhaps he felt that since they had already cooperated to pass the level, he didn't hide anything and simply took out the information he had collected in other places.
After Qi Min took a look, he also sincerely shared the information he had found earlier.
Lin Yuan didn't accept the offer, because he believed that since they had already cooperated to clear the game and made good progress, the previous fragmented data was no longer of much use.
Therefore, under Lin Yuan's confident trust, Qi Min withdrew the useless information he had presented.
Fortunately, he only took out a portion; otherwise, if Lin Yuan had seen it, he probably wouldn't have refused so easily.
That's right, when Qi Min took out the documents, he slightly hid one of them, the one with more important information.
What's written there is a guiding clue about this level; it's a system guide that only unlocks during specific storylines.
This is solely to prevent players searching from getting stuck in the dungeon like headless flies.
The records there mostly consist of general outlines of the dungeon's storyline, providing a general direction like an explanation.
Qi Min never expected that this guiding clue would be mixed in with all the documents he had taken from that room.
If he hadn't looked through it now, he probably wouldn't have discovered it.
After Qi Min finished organizing all the information he currently had, he became increasingly reluctant to do the second hidden task.
The fundamental reason is that he learned from this information that the so-called central system is actually like a main operating power supply.
Once shut down, the enemies left outside will immediately break through the power outage defenses, enter directly inside, occupy the area, and gain complete control.
This is what the hidden quest refers to as fusion, or rather, regional unification.
Thinking of those ghost infants and the records they kept of their various experiences in life, Qi Min immediately understood.
Once he actually followed the instructions in the hidden mission and shut down the central control system of the area where those ghost infants were located...
Then, the researchers who have mutated into monsters, led by those in areas C and D, will swarm into them like locusts, without any further obstruction or restriction.
Qi Min asked himself, whether out of morality or because there was a little ghost baby there who had once saved him.
He couldn't bear to watch those babies who had already suffered so much be plunged into misery once again.
But Qi Min was conflicted about wanting to live, and then an unusual idea popped into his mind.
Since the experimental personnel involved in the mutation can issue hidden side quests.
So, could hidden side quests also be offered by the children who have become ghost babies?
Therefore, if he doesn't follow the tasks assigned by the experimenters, but instead finds the hidden task on the ghost baby's side...
Couldn't the same thing be accomplished and the desired effect achieved?
After all, the initial task that players receive is to explore this area, regardless of left or right, which is the entire area.
So as long as he completes the exploration progress, he can also safely pass the dungeon.
With this idea in mind, Qi Min began to plan how to change this operation.
Later, Qi Min, under the pretense of finding missing data, secretly sneaked back to District D. After a smooth and unimpeded journey, he successfully located the central system.
Qi Min recalled the journey he had taken and realized that he had hardly seen any monsters in this area, which further confirmed his suspicions.
The researchers who caused this anomaly in the area must have already reached the area where the ghost infants were located.
They're just waiting for these players to complete their hidden missions and shut down the central system.
They could then take control of the entire area where the ghost babies were located, thus achieving a unified and integrated system.
Thinking of this, Qi Min didn't hesitate to reach out and smash the control system that was installed in Zone D.
He originally wanted to try to shut it down, but the above operation was too cumbersome, and he didn't have a guiding password or instructions. Since he couldn't go through the process, he had no choice but to destroy it by force.
Fortunately, although these things are complicated, they are ultimately composed of wires and various circuit devices.
If you can't destroy the center, can't you at least destroy the surrounding area?
Qi Min smashed everything in sight, completely destroying all the circuits and devices he could see, and breaking all the chips he could find into pieces.
This explains why the experimental personnel who fought the ghost infants suddenly withdrew.
After Qi Min started smashing things, he was quickly discovered by the D-sector controller who had suddenly returned.
This led to the later incident where he was chased and even nearly died.
Later, by using his abilities to find Cause 01, he was able to endure the energy reflection and pull Qi Min into his own area when Qi Min was about to die.
After much hesitation and deliberation, she finally softened her heart and, despite her disgust, brought him back for treatment after seeing Qi Min's memories and witnessing him take out the candy that 0726 liked and ask him to deliver it to him on his deathbed.
One thing at a time, this adult is different from those other 'adults', it's not just his autonomous act of helping them.
More importantly, 0723 really likes him.
0723 is the smallest of them all, and its ability is also the most special. It can easily sense the mind of a creature and hide its deepest likes and dislikes.
This is also why No. 01 agreed to treat it without much hesitation when it asked No. 01 to do so.
