Being an Extra Actor in an Escape Game

Fei is mumbling with a trembling voice, this looks nothing different to the grey fog outside the Tower

As she says, the fog is so thick its just like in X Beijins Nightmare.

So she is baffled at whats happening

Though, just as she told Jiang Shuangmei earlier, things happen regardless of their wishes, but there should always be a cause and an effect behind them.

So Fei cannot understand why the grey fog outside of the Tower can seep into a Nightmare inside. Its even so thick.

She grips Jiang Shuangmeis hands tightly, because she can no longer see her in such a thick fog.

Jiang Shuangmei also sounds slightly shook as she asks, should we keep going?

They still kept walking through the fog building up, until it was so thick they couldnt see their feet. Right now, they should be just outside of some park.

Fei thinks about it, then says, lets stop and take a rest, and see what happens next.

They wait for a few minutes, they think, and then

A door!

Thats impossible!

Their voices almost overlap as they look at the door appearing in the fog in shock.

In the thick fog, all directions, height and distance are meaningless the door is about a few steps away from them, glowing gently, waiting for them to open it up, it seems.

And Jiang Shuangmei is staring fixedly at it.

The door if she opens it, she can meet succumbed Missiontakers within.

Fei is holding tightly onto Jiang Shuangmei, so that the Missiontaker wouldnt rush into the fog because of her older sister.

Jiang Shuangmei, after a period of silence, says, with a bitter smile, I sure want to really, really want to see her again. You met her in the Nightmare, didnt you?

Fei, while slightly uncertain, nods.Jiang Shuangmei can see it, the light from the door dispelling the fog slightly, andtakes a deep breath, saying, dont worry. Dont worry about me If the need comes, I can head in without hesitation, but right now now is not the time. Im not crazy.

She appears to be reassuring herself this way.

She has already acted like this before; she paid an unforgettable price for it.

Fei, closely watching her, and satisfied she isnt going to rush into the fog, starts thinking about something else.

There are doors in the grey fog why?

Now theyve become largely trapped with the fog so thick. They have no idea whats beyond this area, nor whether retracing their steps and take them back to normalcy.

And what would happen if they just stay and observe the door?

They are still looking nervously at the door, when Fei thought her vision just went awryThe door, she saw it being pushed open from the inside!

She comes to an immediately decision and yells, run! Run away!

Who else but insane people could emerge from doors in the grey fog?

She complete forgot that doors are always a two-way connection. They entered scenes from Nightmares through doors in the grey fog, and naturally, the mad people in the scenes can also exit through the doors!

But but how?! When they were in X Beijins Nightmare, the insane people never seemed to use the doors. Why are they emerging from the grey fog?!

Fei is flabbergasted.

Meanwhile, X Beijin is answering that exact question in the stream, right now, the grey fog has started taking over parts of the Ultimate Nightmare devouring it.

The viewers of his stream are listening, and so is Lin Qin, watching him quietly, sitting by his side.

X Beijin gives Lin Qin a smile, before continuing, the parts devoured by the grey fog will become part of the grey fog, despite the lucid people trapped within.

Of course, the grey fog does not accept people that havent gone insane, so it creates doors near them so the insane people can go deal with them, or more precisely, infect them.

Normally, it would be that the Ultimate Nightmare causes masses of people to succumb, and sothe grey fog takes them away;

But the grey fog is currently devouring the Nightmare instead, which means it would have to correct the people that havent succumbed.

Well, it may sound like Im saying the grey fog has some kind of will, but its actually just programming, but not a sentient grey fog that is planning all of this.

In a sense, we can call the mad people that are rushing out from the grey fog, the difficulty of this Nightmare.

Then X Beijin coughs a little, and Lin Qin quietly hands over a glass of waterTheyre not even drinks anymore!

X Beijin takes a few sips and thinks, he really just spoke too much too quickly with a dry throat the little apple really didnt need to look at him like that, did he?

Though, hes the one thats currently paying the price, so he can only drink water obediently.

Meanwhile, in the stream, the viewers are happily chatting it out in the comment barrage; many who didnt understand the quickfire explanation is being helped along by the very fervent detective dalao.

X Beijins mind is drifting elsewhere, though, as he is paying close attention to the sidebar of his stream, where the number of viewers is updated in real time.

Suddenly, with a short ding, the number of viewers has refreshed increased, by one.

A wave of excitement rushes through X Beijin.

As he realises, the one person hes been waiting for, hoping for, is here.
