“!?”
“What do you mean I don't dare to go?” Gao's tone changed, “What are you talking about?”
Lena walked up to him and stood still, and asked softly, "If my guess is correct, this escape cabin will likely be a coffin prepared for us."
He has thought of everything.
The whole thing that happened in this copy was a lie, this copy had deceived them from the very beginning.
It even includes the system prompt sound that comes to their mind.
The original game prompt system only gave them tasks at the beginning, and never gave them any more clues after that.
Even now, if they open the taskbar of the game, there it just says [Destroy Control Center] - no change at all.
And the tip of the truth on this whole copy, the original game system had actually told them from the beginning - believe nothing.
Once the system prompt disappears, they are already dragged into this massive scam.
This city, these people, and even the sound of a similar system, was just a reality show for the group of players.
Everything they encounter, the entire rhythm orientation of the story, seems to push them to the point of concluding that "destroying the control center" is true.
The biggest problem is at this point. The entire copy process went too smoothly. They didn't even encounter a problem that could be considered a problem.
It was not comparable to the highest standard of difficulty of this copy, even in the previous copy that had difficulty one level below it was filled with life and death battles.
And it was this last step that really made Lena connect all the doubts.
The first thing these rebels thought after their victory was to send them out of this tower—even though it sounded fine, but Lena always felt a sense of high urgency.
These rebels want them to get out of here quickly, to be exact, they want the group of players to get into the escape cabin as quickly as possible.
If you think a little carefully about this from an observer's perspective, this approach seems a bit too deliberate.
It also made Lena feel that this "control center" was also intentional.
Whether it's the large holographic projection screen they've seen before, or the truth these rebels have instilled in players, they want players to believe that it's destroying the "control center" that is the purpose of their mission.
Then the player forms a cooperation with this rebel group which happens to appear at a very opportune time. While complaining about the comical way of action of these rebels, they follow the rebels to attack the tower.
They also played the role of "NPC next to the protagonist" very perfectly, which is very incompatible with the principle of “God Realm”.
And this was done intentionally.
When Lena became suspicious of the rebels because of the "control center", many other doubts began to be associated - for example, these rebels were indeed seen attacking “menara” but in fact they did not contribute at all, except that passionate cheer.
Even from the casualty toll, there were a few people injured, but it seemed that for Lena, she did not see any damage to the rebels at all.
On the other hand, this tower was the core area that controlled the entire city, but there was no other heavily armed resistance except for a bunch of robots, the, and even the humans they saw were only a group of people in the core area.
But even those people gave up without even fighting back at all. At most, they only shouted furiously with a few swear words, but that was not the normal attitude of someone who had to accept their defeat after being crushed.
Lena could not help feeling that .. the rebels and the tower were acting like a mere charade.
And some of the doubts he had written about earlier also confirmed this speculation. Gao was an ordinary young man living in an outer city, but why was he so familiar with the terms and high-tech creations in this tower?
Both begin the explanation of the combat robots are very detailed, and even until their weaknesses are known, which is clearly not in accordance with the environment in which they live.
It might fit the saying “Let's be well your enemy before fight”, but this statement cannot convince Lena.
What's more, even if ordinary people can indeed have an understanding of completely inaccessible areas, it's impossible to understand them in detail – if likened to the real world, most people know about the Lamborghini brand, but few people know about the AVENTADOR SVJ ignition and what the design style of the buttons is.
(Note* Lamborghini Aventador SVJ car keys that have a price of Rp 8 billion.)
Unless they are maniacs or those familiar with these aspects on a regular basis.
With this in mind, everything makes sense.
As for the strongest reason why Lena felt that exiting through the escape cabin was just a dead end, it was actually a very simple — intuition.
(Author note* Female intuition is scary
( ☉ ⁇ ⊙) hehe. )
Then by adding a few guesses.
After all, he had also not seen a single rebel enter the escape cabin. Wasn't it generally after winning the battle, they would send some people to report the results of the battle?
And suddenly hearing Lena say this, Fatty, Tori and the others who had entered the escape cabin immediately came out, "Damn it! You bastard, you want to kill me?"
Seeing Fatty coming towards him aggressively, a hint of panic finally appeared on Gao's face, "No! I didn't! You misunderstood me! We are friends! How could I hurt you? I just want you..."
Before he finished speaking, Fatty grabbed Gao and pushed him into the escape cabin, "If it's really okay, then I'll drop you off first, and call us when you land safely. Then I'll go downstairs and invite you to a drink and compensate you."
But at this moment, Gao struggled, "No! Don't do this! Aren't we friends?! I really can't go down! My friends still need me here! I can't ..."
Fatty only kicked him with one kick, "Why are you talking so much nonsense. Relax, I'll take your place while you're absent."
After speaking, he instantly closed the cabin hatch of the runaway.
Afterwards, Gao who was kicked into the escape cabin by Fatty, seeing that the door was closed, he immediately tried to get out, and started frantically patting the door, "Don't! Help u! Unhand me! Don't you do this! Nay!! Unhand me! Me!!”
Seeing her panicked appearance, Fatty suddenly calmed down her anger and returned to his usual previous appearance, "OK, of course, it's really a dead end."
Tori was astonished by her change in attitude, "No .. bro, did you just pretend to be angry?"
“Of course, do I look like an irritable person?”
The fat man glanced at him and shrugged, “Brother, I'll teach you a – skill when facing an angry and aggressive opponent, people often try to immediately find ways to calm their anger or they will look for ways to divert that person's anger to the other party.”
“When that happens it is most likely that those people reduce thinking time, either from the pressure of an angry opponent or from being pressed, in essence, it will be easy for a depressed person to reveal the truth.”
“And if the anger of the opponent comes into the head of the person, many cases they often do things they would not normally do, or divulge their own plans.”
“How easy to understand, right?”
Tori, "..."
He always thought this fat guy was just a simple and honest mind.
Even Rion looked at Fatty in awe, "Hmm, sorry buddy I seem to look down on you too much."
Only Lena felt that Fatty's actions were quite normal.
After all this fellow could stand firmly on the top ranking list in his previous life, there was no way a fool could stand there.
It's just that they've been played by the rebels.
Putting his left hand on his chin. Lena, ‘Hmm~ Things are finally starting to attract,’ along with the appearance of Lena's evil smile.
