Chapter 449: Perhaps, there is another better container in this game
As the words fell, a surprised voice sounded from the dark corner.
"Ah! Blank tour guide! What are you doing here!"
Yu Huan's delighted voice rang out in that darkness, then she came bouncing out from within.
"Huh? Why have you been sitting here all this time? Isn't the ground dirty?"
Watching Yu Huan appear, Lu Ce's constantly shifting face finally stabilized, transforming into a kind female countenance.
"Oh, because I wanted to sit - sitting is more comfortable."
"In my impression, she shouldn't be someone who cares much about these things."
"Ah?" Yu Huan instantly looked somewhat confused. "What are you talking about?"
"Not important, hehe."
The Xie Antong before her slowly stood up and gradually walked over to stand before Yu Huan."Where did you go just now?"
"I don't know either." Yu Huan's eyes instantly became somewhat dazed, not seeming fake.
"I just felt like everything around me was pitch black, nothing at all. I'm quite afraid of the dark, so I started wandering around randomly, but couldn't see anything."
"But now, I happened to see you. Hehe, that's good too. Blank tour guide is the best."
"How do you play this haunted house? Why is there nothing here?"
Lu Ce walked to Yu Huan's side, smiling as he looked at her and spoke:
"Nothing here? Can't be. Could it be that you can't see it?"
As he spoke, he extended a finger and drew a circle through the darkness ahead, explaining to Yu Huan before him.
"Isn't it filled with haunted house things? The most terrifying things in this world."
Yu Huan opened her big eyes wide and looked around, shrinking her neck slightly as she spoke:
"Really? Why don't I see anything? Blank tour guide, you're not deliberately trying to scare me, are you?"
"How could you not see it?" Lu Ce's sinister voice sounded by her ear.
"This is a haunted house. Look ahead - it's everywhere filled with demons and monsters."
"Suspicion, cruelty, the viciousness of 'better you die than me,' those manipulated pieces who completely cannot control their own minds and judgments."
"Fear, the unknown, those who arbitrarily play according to their preferences, extracting nourishment from the lives and souls of those at the bottom."
"These terrors and pains that constitute everything, constructing joy."
"Aren't they all within this haunted house?"
"Of course, jealousy is also in this haunted house - that most disgusting, most deserving of death, most should-be-eliminated thing in the human world. Did you know that?"
Yu Huan: ...
The originally excited, expectant look in Yu Huan's eyes as she watched the haunted house gradually faded, seeming somewhat unsettled.
"Blank tour guide... what are you talking about? I don't think I quite understand."
"Aren't we in an amusement park? Why does it sound so not fun when you put it like that?"
"Hahahahaha!" Suddenly, hearing her words, Lu Ce burst into loud laughter, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
"Not fun anymore? That's what makes it fun!"
"What's the most thrilling game in this world? Tell me."
Yu Huan's expression turned somewhat strange as she looked back at the "Blank tour guide" beside her. At this moment, that originally beautiful face now looked eerily somewhat frightening.
"What is it?"
"It's the unknown. Games with cheat codes activated, no matter how satisfying, no matter how invincible, will eventually become boring one day." Lu Ce said with a smile, staring straight at Yu Huan.
"Especially if one could enter electronic games personally to experience that thrill firsthand - that would be interesting."
"Of course, entering one's own designed game isn't about becoming cannon fodder."
"So one needs the best equipment, the highest priority, to enjoy oneself thoroughly without consequences, able to patch and update modifications whenever one wants to do anything."
"Tell me, wouldn't such a game be more interesting?"
"Did you have fun today, Miss Yu Huan?"
Yu Huan's expression now shifted uncertainly as she turned to look at the "Sin" before her.
At this moment, Lu Ce also stopped pretending, wearing on his face that pink mask that had almost merged with his own features, smiling face to face.
"Why do I feel like there's meaning behind your words?" Yu Huan spoke.
"Oh? Why aren't you calling me Blank tour guide anymore?" Lu Ce said with a smile.
"Because that mask of yours is obviously ugly and doesn't match her." Yu Huan mocked.
Her face once again showed that happy smile as she looked at Lu Ce and said.
"You're right, I actually did have quite a good time."
"People are truly interesting. Clearly knowing nothing, yet for their own benefit, they can easily turn swords against each other."
"And when confirming danger exists, even if nothing happens, they still fear and remain vigilant."
"There are even inexplicable fools who, while unable to protect themselves, actually think about protecting others."
"Don't you find it interesting?"
Lu Ce similarly laughed, nodding in strong agreement.
"Yes! I also find it extremely interesting. Honestly, along the way I almost couldn't resist laughing at them loudly."
"Should I thank you for letting me watch this great show?"
Yu Huan looked at the excited face behind the pink mask before her, the corner of her mouth twitching uncontrollably.
She couldn't help saying:
"You are... truly terrible."
"But so what, Mr. 'Sin,' our strongest player?"
Although her words said "strongest," her tone clearly carried obvious disdain.
"Going to make a move now? Kill me? Kill the 'Joy' before you to realize your grand plan of challenging the gods?"
Lu Ce looked down at her and shook his finger.
"No no no, killing people is just incidental, not the core topic."
"I don't care what this Yu Huan is - whether a real person or something created. But she is Yu Huan, not Joy."
"She's just a shell, a container."
"You figured that out? Not so easily fooled after all." Yu Huan raised an eyebrow, then spread her hands.
"Well, nothing to be done then. What else can you do?"
Yu Huan's expression was exceptionally mocking as she looked at the jealousy before her.
"Nothing to be done? No no, there seems to be a bit of a problem here."
"Because if it's just like this, the fun isn't big enough, not joyful enough."
"Perhaps in this game, there's another better container? That could provide better fun?"
As the words fell, the corner of Yu Huan's eye trembled almost imperceptibly, but immediately after, the voice coming from behind her was what truly made her expression change.
"It seems I'm quite popular."
