"Yes, please."
In a room located in District D of Hualan City in the real world, Chu Lingbing, who had just finished taking a bath and was wearing a light bath gauze, was talking stiffly with another figure appearing in the communication ball in a low voice.
Some serious words also gradually stopped as the last parting words fell, accompanied by her tense body gradually relaxing: "... Huh."
"I didn't expect to encounter such a thing."
Half turning away from his face, which still looked extremely haggard even after taking a shower, Chu Lingbing's eyes also fell on the window sill that appeared in front of him after he leaned over, the towering buildings and suspension towers.
The moonlight above these buildings also converged with her equally bright eyes, and extended in series in the light flow formed by the intertwining of countless floating cars. After a busy day, it was in this kind of city light flow.
The scenes continued to move forward, and the scene that represented the latest living conditions in the 22nd century seemed to begin to appear unchanged in front of the woman. Looking intently at this scene, she quickly lost her attention that was not here.
, turned around and walked back to the game cabin in the room: "..."
"It should be...nothing will happen."
The outstretched hand paused for a moment on the surface of the game cabin. Chu Lingbing muttered to himself hesitantly. The light steps that were originally walking barefoot in the room began to become hesitant and slow with the spinning pace.
Finally, with a frown on her face, she landed right in front of the cabin where the safety device was supposed to be installed: "...No, no, still no."
"I can't cut off my arms until it's over."
Her eyes gradually became firm and decisive. The woman holding the side of the cabin took another deep breath. Then she turned back and sat down in the cabin next to her. She reached out and took out the man mentioned in the previous communication.
Several sets of numbers were input into the instructions of the game cabin. Because he had suffered a mental attack before, Chu Lingbing had also been targeted again by the alliance and some unknown people at this time. He had received some kind of reminder and training.
She also took isolation and necessary measures as quickly as possible to block again the thoughts of trying to find herself after the last Sky City incident.
I am just a former rich lady. I neither have any advanced knowledge of information technology nor the protection of a professional player. If I want to successfully ensure my safety in this incident, I can only rely on myself.
I have accumulated some contacts that I once stayed at Tianxiang Company.
"Fortunately, there are still many versions released by Intertek in many game consoles on the market."
Still constantly checking the operation of the cabin and the data flow displayed on the light screen, Chu Lingbing murmured to himself again: "If these parameters are temporarily circumvented and the data source is rewritten, the tracking this time should be
We can avoid it for the time being."
"But it can only be avoided for a while, not for a lifetime." Chu Lingbing paused with his fingers in mid-air, wrapped in a bath gauze and trying to relax himself, and then he sighed deeply: "Oh, these hateful guys
, why are you tossing me back and forth?”
"Is it just for Duan Qing?" She gritted her teeth unconsciously, and her originally weak body tightened subconsciously: "Because I haven't caught him, so I started to target the people around him? Naive,
He is now like this because of your persecution! You actually--"
The clenched fists were then slowly loosened, and the woman's slightly dazed eyes also fell on the dark top of the cabin above her head: "Forget it, just complaining here will not help this incident.
, I’d better continue to do what I can do, after all..."
After all, if it were him, this kind of thing should be easily solved.
After regaining his composure, Chu Lingbing reached out and turned on the operating switch of the game cabin. The virtual world scene that was about to appear in front of him was interrupted by another voice that suddenly sounded in front of him, and with it
A flashing "friend avatar" displayed in the communication in the game cabin flashed in the dark space about to close the cabin door: "How have you been lately, Miss?"
"...How did you know I was outside?" Frowning at the name and identity represented next to the portrait, Chu Lingbing's reply became deeper: "Could it be that you - no,
No, I should have blocked even my former friends."
"Don't forget that we were colleagues before." The voice from the other end of the communication was also laughing in a low voice at this time: "I know you are not willing to call me 'Uncle Fei' anymore. The relationship between us
It’s impossible to restore it to the past, but it’s still possible for us to cooperate, right?”
"Of course, aren't we already in a cooperative relationship?" Chu Lingbing squinted at the source of the sound represented by the jumping head: "Because of the few words I left them before, what have you been doing recently?
Liberty City should be doing pretty well, right?"
"That's natural."
It seemed that he was used to this kind of conversation. The man who called himself Uncle Fei on the other end of the communication continued to follow the rhythm of the conversation: "But the brothers behind me and I will not be satisfied with the current situation. Our revenge goal is still far away.
It’s not finished yet.”
"If I remember correctly, the contract we reached was only for cooperation within a limited scope." Chu Lingbing retorted again: "If we really get to that point, I won't be stingy.
I will stand up for you, but I will not take the initiative to complete the so-called revenge for you, who were once the same as you."
"Miss, there is no need to speak so decisively. After all, our current situation is very similar." The voice from the other end of the communication still did not lose any meaning of continuing to test: "When a person who lives in the cracks is caught by his own
When the enemy finds out and forces him into a corner, no one would choose to sit back and wait for death, right?"
"..."
"If I hadn't learned about this incident from my old friends in the company, I wouldn't have found you so easily."
As if aware of the silence displayed by the woman at this time, the voice on the other end of the communication became much more determined: "Maybe you can escape this crisis with your own luck, but you won't be able to do it next time.
Such good luck, so...you should almost get rid of being alone and start organizing your own strength."
"I seem to have heard the same advice many times in the past." Xue Ling Huan Bing let out a low laugh again: "People who are cornered should hug each other for warmth? Although your idea is not
Any questions, but your words only make me feel the words 'taking advantage of others',' which makes me reject your invitation from the bottom of my heart."
"We are just stating the facts." The voice on the other end of the communication still did not lose his confidence and patience: "Or do you have any better ways to solve this crisis? I am all ears."
"As long as you are willing to search and work hard for it, the road will definitely open." Chu Lingbing shook her head and stretched out her hand: "But-"
"I'm not interested in explaining it to you."
Putting his finger on the surface of the light screen, Chu Lingbing gracefully ended the temporary conversation, and then with the hum of the cabin gradually ringing around him, he once again entered the virtual world that he had been absent from for a day.
. Slowly opened her eyes. The long-haired woman who had been replaced by white hair then tried to struggle with her body. She was still unable to support herself to sit up. Then she was accompanied by countless noises from the front.
Appeared, gathered slightly beside the stone bed where Xue Ling Huan Bing wanted to turn over and sit up: "Huh, uh, uh, uh... damn it."
"I originally thought that going offline would help recover from a negative state." After all, the slender body wrapped under the quilt did not escape the shackles of the stone bed, and Xueling Huanbing, who lay back on the spot, panted.
Opened his character status panel: "Did the result only recover a little bit?"
"If you can regain a little control of your body, you have recovered well." A voice then appeared in her ears, and along with it, the gray magic robe belonging to Duan Qing appeared.
The scene next to the door of the room: "And this kind of mental trauma can only be recovered through rest, otherwise I would have thrown the magic of life on you long ago."
"Even if it is possible, I will not agree to your use." Shaking his head resolutely, Xue Ling Huan Bing, who had already laid down on the stone bed again, tilted his head: "You just need to put me on
Here, I can definitely—um."
"Why, are you busy now?"
The distance between the two gradually narrowed as Duan Qing walked in, and the white-haired woman gradually noticed Duan Qing's expression at this time, and the full face that appeared in front of him after he was out of the light of the door.
It was Dahan's face: "What happened?"
"What else can I be busy with? Of course it's about the competition." Understanding why the other party changed the topic, Duan Qing reached out and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "We have redesigned the competition and are now processing the results of the competition.
.”
"Processing the results of the game?" Then the doubts in Xue Ling Huan Bing's eyes became more and more intense: "Is processing the results of the game a physical job? Why are you so tired that you are sweating profusely?"
"Why isn't it physical work? You don't know how many corpses we moved... Ah, no, are there corpse-like existences around the floating island?" Duan Qing, who was constantly dancing his arms and trying to relax his body, also said
He replied with a look of helplessness: "There is almost no room for them on the entire floating island now! Hey, if I had known earlier, I should have eliminated half of them yesterday, so as to reduce some pressure on today's processing——"
"Get out of the way! Who's in there?"
A loud shout appeared behind Duan Qing, interrupting what he was about to say in mid-air. Several people from the Sioux tribe who strode forward carrying a certain figure also followed suit.
Under the command of Goldman, he stormed into the room: "Sorry, but there is no extra space now, so I can only borrow it temporarily - Huh? So you are here.
"
"Please, this is the central control room." Looking back at the faces of the group of people with curled lips, Duan Qing then gestured behind him: "And there is already a seriously injured person here, you'd better move to another place -"
"No, I don't care." He shook his head slightly, and Xueling Huanbing, who was behind Duan Qing, also replied: "I just want to find out what you are doing... Well, this
Isn’t this the priest? How did you become like this?"
"Hey, hey hey hey... you have to ask your other envoy about this."
The blood-covered figure was placed on the ground by the Sioux people who were carrying him. Mi Si, who was still awake, heard the sound and let out a weak chuckle: "In order to participate in his so-called competition, we
...It can be considered... I have suffered enough."
"Otherwise, why did I give you those teleportation runes in the first place?" Turning around, Duan Qing replied nonchalantly: "The so-called difficulty and danger of the competition have been around since the battle.
I also emphasized to you before we started, you can’t just blame me now.”
"Huh, it's true that we underestimated the level of testing you and the divine envoys will undergo." Covering his bloody wounds, Mi Si continued in a weak voice: "We also underestimated the fighting power of the Hulun tribe, their cavalry and war horses,
Stronger than any grassland tribe I have ever seen."
"...Is there anything else you want to say?"
"Next time when you arrange an opponent for the competition, please be sure to hand over the leader of the Hulun tribe to me."
A flash of unknown meaning flashed in his eyes. Facing Duan Qing's question, Mi Si then lowered his head: "I should... have another chance, right?"
"Of course, you are one of the members who can advance according to our statistics." Duan Qing looked up and looked at the adventurer's manual in his hand that contained various records: "According to the rules, you and several others who persisted until the end on the battlefield
The members have won this round of selection ceremony and received an audience... uh, forget it."
"Carry him somewhere else and take good care of his injuries."
Realizing that the other party had fallen into a coma, the gray-robed magician stopped mid-sentence, then looked behind him and waved to others, including Gedman:
"After all, there are more seriously injured people waiting behind, so it would not be a good idea to put him here."
"Just put him in the upper room."
