Chapter 260 Lightless City (30)

The village chief is a skinny but still young man.

Perhaps because he had seen too much death, when he saw Bai Yan coming with the rotten corpse, he didn't have any extra greetings. It was only when he encountered the defense box that he raised his eyelids and glanced at Gu Qiao.

His eyes were still lifeless.

This cave should be specially used to dispose of dead bodies, and is not the place where the village chief lives.

Compared to other places, there is light here.

A piece of the same ore as in the tunnel outside, with a faint blue color, brings a sense of loneliness and indifference to this place that is linked to death.

The process for reporting a death is simple.

An old metal smelting and refining furnace was about two people tall.

Throw the body down.

A piece of light blue ore was thrown down.

Then, the rotting corpse disappeared.

The village chief is very skillful in handling this, and he must have done it countless times.

Gu Qiao originally guessed that some kind of fusion reaction had occurred in the furnace.

The technological means of this dungeon world have a strong sense of fragmentation, half primitive and half far beyond the level of the world where Gu Qiao lives.

But in Chaoxun's field of vision, the furnace was filled with darkness, and the rotting corpses were being devoured, leaving nothing behind.

A moment later, when she was about to withdraw her gaze, she saw something in her peripheral vision.

In the darkness, there are some fragmentary data garbled.

Like ashes blown away by the wind, they quickly fell into the darkness and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The muscles in Gu Qiao's cheeks twitched slightly for no apparent reason, and his expression became gloomy.

"My mother's life is very hard and tiring. She has no way to give birth and can't exchange for food."

Beside her, Bai Yan looked at the stove, her eyes slightly red.

Mom doesn't want to drag her down anymore.

After Bai Yu disappeared, she was the only one in the family who could go into the "hole" to exchange for food, but the mother was unwilling to eat the food that her child had sacrificed her life for, and chose to die of hunger.

Of course, the sadness cannot be calmed down, but Bai Yan has a vague feeling in her heart that this may be a kind of relief.

"."

Gu Qiao looked away, no longer looking at the old stove, and his eyes fell on Bai Yan's face.

The girl hasn't fully grown yet, but has already acquired a weird weathered look, but apart from her dark complexion, her eyebrows are undoubtedly beautiful.

It's very similar to Bai Yu's appearance in the memory.

"Soon, it will be my turn."

The girl murmured softly, and the sad expression on her face gradually became a bit numb.

In his eyes, he could see the future at a glance, and there was no hope, so he had no choice but to compromise and accept his fate.

"From today on, you are the head of the family."

When Gu Qiao was about to leave with Bai Yan, the village chief finally spoke.

The young man's face, eyebrows and eyes were extremely weathered, and his expression was numb, but at this moment, he finally had a slight emotion.

It was a kind of helpless pity, quick and short-lived.

These words made Bai Yan, who was originally immersed in grief, tremble for no reason.

"I know."

The girl lowered her head, suppressing her emotions.

During the ordinary conversation, Gu Qiao saw that the familiar fear in Bai Yan appeared again.

Bai Yan, what are you afraid of?

Become the head of the household?

Gu Qiao said nothing and stood aside, as silent as the rock wall in a cave.

The village chief didn't seem to have any scruples about the presence of a strange outsider. He pulled out three iron pieces with codes on them and placed them all in Bai Yan's hand:

"That's all, it's all yours."

After saying that, he waved his hand and his expression returned to numbness: "Go ahead."

Bai Yan was holding a handful of iron pieces, and her fingers were so hard that their fingertips were almost white.

Gu Qiao frowned and stretched out his hand to hold her wrist. Bai Yan seemed to have come back to her senses. Regardless of whether Gu Qiao could see it or not, a smile uglier than crying appeared on her face.

[Gu Qiao, Bai Yan and the village chief in front of me, they are all the products of genetic editing and tampering. 】

Yeva scanned the comparison data of the two people and fed it back to Gu Qiao in her consciousness.

[The iron piece in her hand is an ordinary iron product, and its use cannot be determined, but I discovered something very interesting.]

Gu Qiao raised his eyebrows and waited quietly for it to continue.

[In their genetic coding, regarding the assignment of emotions, the upper limit of each one is very high, but the combination of emotions related to 'resistance' is restricted to an extremely low level. 】

Yeva's words were a bit convoluted, and then she added: [To put it simply, they are not allowed to resist.]

'Resistance will hasten their death.'

Gu Qiao was slightly stunned.

The residents of the underground city do not live short lives entirely due to radiation.

The stronger the resistance, the faster their physical failure.

'Then they are also programmers who have set the settings?'

Gu Qiao suppressed the strange sadness in his heart.

Therefore, these underground city dwellers who seemed so numb were quickly accelerating their own death under the influence of restrictions.

This also means that they never stop resisting.

They are resisting. What?

Is it like Gu Qiao thought? In this game called "Creator", she is far from the only one who has awakened her own consciousness.

The missing Bai Yu was actually a successful rebel?
