This is a wine called Guitan. The ghost-like drink always exudes an unpleasant corpse smell. However, it is the only wine in the world that makes your thinking clearer the more you drink it. Many mercenaries and businessmen like it.
I came here to discuss business and specially ordered this rancid wine to drink. Because Article 4 of the Negotiation Manual states - "Keep a cool head at all times." But I think they are stupid. The most important thing in negotiating is not to keep a cool head at all times.
Instead, just make the other person more idiotic than yourself. Because it is difficult to improve a person's intelligence, but it is easy to do the opposite.
There were very few customers around, and the waiter was dozing out of boredom on the counter. A young man of medium height, average appearance, wearing a vest and shorts and a fat middle-aged man were sitting opposite each other in silence.
"So about our agreement..." A shadow of distrust shone under the smooth, fat face of the middle-aged man sitting across from me.
I didn't say anything, but just stared at him blankly, and released Fuxi around him, then squinted my eyes and looked at him again. Looking at him like that, he must have thought that I was mentally retarded, but the data flow was flowing very fast.
flowed into my body.
"It's so hot in this place, why don't you turn on the air conditioner?" He said, wiping the sweat beads on his forehead: "Mr. Bujiyuan, it was your best friend Yasha who introduced me here. So it should be
No problem?" Yasha is also a code name. In fact, the kid's real name is Odin. I am very familiar with him, but we are not friends because we are not from the same world and our behavioral principles are completely opposite. But this uncle has always said to himself
You're talking to yourself, don't you feel tired?
So I smiled softly and replied: "Mercenaries don't have friends." After saying that, I stood up and looked at the dim street lamp across the street in a daze for a while. Suddenly, the surroundings fell into a brief silence. The street lamp tilted downwards.
Leaning on a woman with heavy makeup, it can be seen from the marks on her body that she is a call girl affiliated with the Beast King Group. There will be so many women like her that they will break up the entire street when they turn around this alley. But most of them are not
Human beings, because they are all too beautiful, but this woman is not very beautiful.
The woman was looking in my direction with her dark eyes. I immediately turned my eyes to the other side and yawned.
"But your name, Dennis, may be louder than mine."
"You know my name too?"
"Dr. Dennis, the chief botanical authority at the Biochemistry Research Institute of the Beast King Group, I know very well."
"I have always been responsible. I have never thought of doing anything illegal before..." Dennis seems to be very proud of his work. I know that in normal times, serious people like him would look down on us.
A guy who works in an illegal profession.
"In terms of difficulty, your job itself is also an A-level mission. However, it is illegal to log in to the mercenary guild..." (The mercenary guild mission levels from lowest to highest are e, d, c, b, a
,s)
"I know this. I went to the Mercenary Guild and couldn't log in for some reason. But he said you would take on this mission." There was a bit of contempt in his words, so what does it matter? I am a
A monster who will do anything for money.
I ignored the fat middle-aged man, gently pushed my hand on the table, and rolled up. (In order to save energy, I usually don't do thankless jumping movements.) Then I answered in a very calm tone: "Yes.
Yes, I can. But the fee is very high." Then I told him the price I asked for - five thousand gold coins. That is, five hundred thousand copper plates.
“Hmm~~~~~” The middle-aged man groaned in pain. I knew he was only moaning because of money, but after a moment, a fierce light flashed in his eyes: “As long as you are willing to do it, it doesn’t matter how much it costs!
I want to kill them for twenty years. For twenty years, they are like vampires, sucking all the blood out of every vein in my body. I want to get rid of them... get rid of this damn fate.
…”
Dennis looked a little nervous, and with trembling hands he took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth. But after searching for a long time, he still couldn't find a lighter. So I stretched out my left index finger and scratched Dennis's body, and inexplicably there was a bulge on my fingertip.
There was a pale flame, just like his face. When I lit the cigarette in his mouth with my finger, I glanced at him with a half-smile, and then gently patted a contract in front of his eyes: "Hey, all
Everything will be cleared up. Just sign if there is no problem, and the contract will be established."
After the agreement was signed, Dennis was soaked in sweat and turned into a big wet bun. He picked up the handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead and neck, and then asked in surprise: "Why aren't you sweating? There is indeed something in it.
It’s very boring.”
"I don't naturally like sweating because it wastes computer speed."
"What's going on? Is it because your health is not good? Can you really kill people?" the wordy uncle asked again.
But I ignored him and looked at my watch anxiously. It was getting late, and I had a job at the Patriotic Health Committee (Patriotic Health Committee), so I had to rush over immediately. I glanced out the window and left without saying a word.
Turned over and rolled out.
"The one opposite, yes! Don't look away, I'm talking about you! Are you a real person?" I have been staring at the woman under the streetlight for a long time.
"No, I'm a fake." (Horrified voice, and backing up) "Who are you, and why do you care about me?"
(While walking, he wears red sleeves and a yellow jacket) "I am a member of the Guardian Society. If I catch someone like you, I will earn five yuan."
Hey want to run! Grandpa is not afraid of running long distances.

"Lina, don't forget to get your lunch box."
Ghost Street in Tiandi City is a place where poor people live together, and it is also a place where evil breeds. Because the entire block is under the control of Beast King Entertainment, one of the four major subsidiaries of the Demon World Group. A man wearing a gray military coat and a dark green flat hat
The tall man was walking lonely in this evil neighborhood. He was the man known as Yasha in the Dark Mercenary Guild—Odin.
Odin tightened his coat tightly, pulled up the brim of his flat hat, and then stopped in front of the nursing home. This was a fifty-story building. His employer, Miss Lena Dennis, was in front.
Wait for him.
"Want something to eat?" Lina handed over the bento in her hand. Odin reached out and picked up a piece of fried shrimp and threw it into his mouth without saying anything.
"It tastes good. Did your grandma make it for you?"
"No, my dad did it."
"He is a man..."
"My mother died young and my grandmother was sick. My father has always taken care of me since I was a child."
"Oh? He loves you very much."
"By the way, why didn't you bring a weapon?" It seems that in Miss Dennis' eyes, Odin seems to be a very unreliable guy.
"You don't necessarily need a weapon to kill. Besides, I'm here to save people."
"Actually, I don't want this to happen. But my father actually wants to kill me and grandma..." Miss Dennis choked up a little when she said this.
"This is a common thing, it's not a big problem." Odin's answer was indifferent.
"But you also know that the killer hired by the other party is the warrior closest to God! He is a ruthless murderer!"
"Maybe." Odin smiled thoughtfully, and then strode towards the hospital. Miss Dennis followed closely and took care of the nursing home guard who rushed out from the duty room looking for trouble.
As soon as the two of them disappeared, several shadows appeared from the dim street corner.
three
——Forty-fourth floor of nursing home building——
"Dennis! Dennis! Who is he?" In front of me is a toothless old man, with a ghostly pale face, a sickly look, and sunken temples, as if the whole body is only composed of bones and nerves. I know she is
Calling his son's nickname.
"Doctor." I chuckled. To be honest, I don't have much affection for NPCs like her.
"Dennis..." The old woman's call had no effect. He was huddled in a dark corner outside the room, but there would be no response.
The old woman lowered her head. After a moment of silence, she suddenly smiled: "I know, it has been delayed for five or six years. He has been like this since he knew about it... Seeing Dennis living in such pain, I
Even sadder than him. I thought about committing suicide to end this endless suffering...but...but every time I wanted to take action, I lost my courage. A terrible force made me continue to survive aimlessly...
"Mrs. Dennis seemed to want to cry, but couldn't shed a single tear: "Look, I can't even cry a single tear, not even for my child..."
I lowered my head and said nothing.
"If you can meet Lina, tell her that grandma will turn into a star, so that she can always protect her..."
"Please kill me. For Dennis..."
Hearing the muffled sound coming from the room, Dennis seemed to wake up from a dream, twisting his fat body and trying to stand up from the ground.
"Where's the other half of the reward?" I was already at his side before he even got up.
Dennis squatted there in confusion. After a while, he asked: "Is he really dead? My mother..."
I nodded blankly.
"Hahaha... it's true... it's true... it's finally over. Killing her will destroy my original programme. Finally, I no longer have to live a life arranged by others. I will become a free person."
NPC (unmanned artificial intelligence in computer games)." Dennis burst out laughing, but what was revealed in his eyes was not joy or fear, but an indescribable sadness. After being silent for a while, his mouth suddenly felt incomprehensible.
She started talking to herself: "She is not my mother, she is just a string of emotionless codes... just a string of..." She seemed to be choked up at this point.
"Let's go, there will be a more exciting father-daughter fight next." I picked him up and pulled him to the corridor. But when I pressed the elevator button, he curled up on the ground again.
"Mom... Mom is the person who loves me the most in the world. Although I also know that it is programmed, she is indeed the person who loves me the most. Mr. Bujiyuan, do you think it is worth it for freedom?"
"I only know how to work." Although I answered like this, I thought of my mother. It has been a long time since I went back to see her.
Four
"Brother, we are going to the forty-fourth floor." Lina was completely speechless. The guy actually wanted to climb the stairs.
The gray-clothed mercenary shrugged helplessly: "Our opponent this time is the warrior closest to God. It is said that he never does things according to routine. All previous opponents who played according to routine have fallen into his hands. But you
It’s the customer, it’s up to you to decide..."
Before entering the elevator, Odin's long pointed ears suddenly flapped. There seemed to be soft footsteps outside. Odin quickly moved to the window, and sure enough... a dozen black figures were moving quickly outside the building, and the four people guarding the door were
A guard rushed out and quickly fell into a pool of blood. These guys seemed to be trying to get ahead of them and wait for them.
"Miss Dennis." Odin said calmly to Lena Dennis: "Have you ever heard of Soul Eater?"
"They are all human beings, but they are more terrifying than the ghosts in the underworld. Because they are the exclusive killing machines of the Beastmaster Group among the three major groups in the demon world. Not long ago, they sneaked into the palace and killed General Anderson, the third warrior of the Tianren Kingdom.
By the way, why do you suddenly ask this?"
Odin turned his head and smiled at him: "About eleven of these monsters are coming here. They have been following us since I saw you."
"What do they want to do?" Lina's voice was trembling.
"Delete you and me from the system."
"Then what should we do?"
"Give me 100,000 gold coins and I will destroy these guys for you."
"The asking price is that high?"
Odin took out a cigarette, lit it casually, and then glanced sideways at Lina: "Of course, if it's not the Soul Eater, you don't have to pay the bill."
"You're a vampire!"
"Whatever you say." After saying this, Odin closed his eyes. At this time, the elevator had arrived, and Odin stepped in first without saying a word.
Dennis stood at the place where Odin was standing just now and took a look. A sudden cold air came out from behind him. Under the pale moonlight, there were a dozen weird people wearing white smiling masks. There was no trace of life on them.
Just like a group of walking corpses...
* * * * * *
One of the two elevators was still on the first floor, while the other was gradually approaching the forty-fourth floor. On this floor, a dozen black figures climbed in from the window. After they smiled at each other, the first one pressed the button.
Press the upward button of the elevator, and then stay quietly at the elevator entrance with a smile, waiting for the prey to appear.
Bang! The elevator slowly opened. Suddenly there were loud explosions in the corridor, and the elevator was instantly turned into a honeycomb... However, something strange happened - it was empty inside, and Odin and Lina were like
They disappeared like ghosts. The smiles of the eleven masked men also became stiff.
——Emergency access on the 44th floor——
"Hey, don't these idiots know that after pressing the elevator floor, there are still dozens of seconds to get out before the door closes? As long as we climb the stairs as fast as the elevator, it will be fine." It can be seen that Lina is already a little confused.
She admired the ghost-like man in front of her. Because she didn't expect that the man in gray was really faster than the elevator and was holding her in his arms.
Odin raised his little finger and transformed a purple thread, which slowly crawled out of the corner. After confirming the number of enemies, he turned around and said to Lina: "All eleven Soul Eaters are here.
, you go to the upper side and hide for a while. But don’t stay too far away from me.”
"What should you do?" Lina asked, not knowing why she suddenly cared about him.
"I want to kill people." Before he finished speaking, Odin shook his hand and transformed into his weapon - a huge pistol. Its name is Purple Rain. Every warrior in Taiyi World can transform his spirit into a weapon.
A weapon, and Purple Rain is the product of Odin's spiritual body materializing.
Standing at the corner of the stairs, Lina couldn't help but turn her head and secretly glance at the man. He lit a cigarette without expression and stood lonely by the corridor. The weird giant gun was spinning around him.
The indifferent face seemed to be uninterested in anything. Lina kicked her foot angrily and ran up the stairs.
The eleven Soul Eaters had just recovered from the surprise when they suddenly found themselves shrouded in a purple mist. The purple mist was getting thicker and thicker, and the Soul Eaters were about to raise their weapons.
The five Soul Eaters were entangled in countless purple threads pouring out of the mist. Before they could turn around, they were torn into pieces by these purple threads, and their flesh and blood were scattered on the ground.
The remaining six Soul Eaters did not panic. After taking three steps back, they raised their guns and fired wildly at somewhere in the darkness, regardless of the purple thread that was wrapping around them. Although the purple thread was strong in toughness, it was not very fast.
I dare not compliment you, but it still kept getting closer to the six people who were constantly circling in the purple mist. The crisis was the moment, and one of the masked men shouted to everyone: "At two o'clock on the right, there is a woman at 45° upwards.
, let’s shoot that place with curved projectiles (a kind of bendable bullets).” When the masked people heard this, they seemed to have grasped the hope of survival, and the person who followed the shouting went crazy on the other side of the purple mist.
It was like a wild sweep. Soon a woman's exclamation came from the other end of the purple mist. It was obviously Lina's voice.
Suddenly, the curling purple threads suddenly stopped, and then straightened out. A tall gray shadow jumped out from the net made of thick fog and purple threads. As he approached the six Soul Eaters, the countless
The purple thread also turned into ten thousand purple arrows and shot out. Immediately, the two Soul Eaters were pierced by countless purple light arrows and fell to the ground stiffly. The remaining four people seemed to be frightened and dropped their hands.
He wanted to escape after being hit by the weapon, but the purple light quickly penetrated the bodies of two of them.
"You two, don't move!" Odin shouted, and the two masked men stopped. One of them knelt down and cried, while the other stood there blankly, looking a little overwhelmed.
Looks like. Is this really the frightening Soul Eater in legend?
Feeling strange, Odin put away the purple mist and the purple attack line, and carefully leaned over. At this time, Lina also came out of the hiding place. Her pretty face turned red, and there was blood on her arms.
It was obvious that she had been hit in the attack just now.
"Two adults, please forgive me. Our four brothers were on duty at the door, but we were forced by these gangsters to bring this terrible thing... Wuwuwuwuwu~~~" The man who was kneeling on the ground and crying took off his smiling mask.
When she came down and took a closer look, Lina couldn't help but gasp. Unexpectedly, this masked man turned out to be one of the four guards who asked for tolls from her just now.
"Where are your companions?" Lina asked.
"Where are they all?" The guard pointed to the puddle of broken meat on the ground.
"Why doesn't that guy over there take off his mask? Since this guy said that all three of his companions are dead, then who are you?" Lina looked at the other masked man hiding aside.
"Big...big..." The masked man's voice didn't sound aggressive at all.
"What's the big deal!" It seems that this masked man was also kidnapped, and he seems to be very young.
"Brother and sister, be careful!"
"Hehehe..." Before the masked man could finish his words, the guard lying on the ground suddenly let out a creepy laugh. A red light flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly pounced on Lina. Odin quickly pushed Lina back.
Pushed, and then dodged sideways, but at the moment he dodged, he felt as if he had stepped on a piece of glass under his feet. The glass penetrated the leather boots and penetrated into the flesh of the soles of his feet. But he couldn't care less at this time.
, the gray-clothed mercenary raised his arm, and Ziyu began to roar angrily in the darkness. Dozens of purple attack lines penetrated the body of the humanoid monster.
The monster twitched a few times, and blood spurted out from his mouth. However, before he fell, an imperceptible ferocious smile flashed in his eyes...
Seeing Odin turning his gun towards him, the last masked man seemed frightened. He pressed his body against the wall next to the elevator and said in horror: "Brother, I am a normal human being. I can tell you something,
You must not kill me."
"Listen to what he wants to say." Lina hurriedly stepped forward to stop Odin's further actions because she wanted to hear what information the masked man could provide. Because according to Odin, there were eleven people before they entered the building.
The Soul Eaters are following. But since those guys used a few guards to pretend to be their people, there must be some conspiracy behind it.
Odin put down his gun, but did not release the combat status, and then said lightly: "If you don't kill him now, you will regret it later."
Seeing that there was a glimmer of hope, the masked man hurriedly told everything he knew: "Our boss is a vampire, and all creatures whose blood has been sucked by him will become his slaves. The second boss has three eyes. What is their specific function?
Not sure, but he seems to be able to make everyone in the building sleep. The third child is extremely powerful, and he also has a pair of sharp claws that can tear steel... In fact, all the corpses here are not real Soul Eaters.
But a servant of the Soul Eater.".
"Then why didn't you become a slave?" Lina asked.
"Brother, you must be the hero who never leaves far away?" The masked man didn't seem to notice Lina's question, but turned his face to Odin, his words full of admiration.
Lina immediately answered this simple question instead of Odin: "No, you have the wrong person. He is not staying away."
"But you are so powerful..." The young man continued to ask Odin.
"There are many more powerful people in this world than Wu Qi Yuan." As she spoke, Lina looked obviously dissatisfied.
"But they said that Wu Jiyuan was so powerful that they had to use this trick to plot against you... By the way, brother, are you okay? Such a vicious trick..."
"It's okay." Odin had closed his eyes at this time, as if he was tired.
"Brother, actually, I was originally a mercenary. Why don't you let me help you? You see, I am you, a fan of the hero Bu Ji Yuan. I often buy your biographies in the book market to read. But most of them are damn pirated copies.
, because you never authorize others to write your wonderful stories, but your stories are so wonderful."
"I'm not leaving home." Faced with this young man's chatter, Odin seemed a little impatient. At this moment, another woman's exclamation came from upstairs. Leah next to her was suddenly shocked and couldn't speak.
Without saying anything, he ran upstairs quickly.
Seeing that Odin also wanted to leave, the masked young man seemed very anxious, and shouted loudly from behind Odin: "Brother Bujiyuan, don't go, it's a trap they set! You don't know, those monsters are too scary."
"We have to break into the dragon's den and the tiger's den." As he spoke, Odin jumped up and hit the ceiling.
"Brother, what are you going to do? Be careful of hitting your head. I just pressed the button for the elevator and it's almost there."
But Odin didn't hear it at all, and he didn't hit his head. When his head touched the ceiling, his whole body suddenly turned into an energy wave and passed through the ceiling.
After Odin disappeared, the masked man seemed to be very surprised, and his eyes were as big as a bell. Not long after, the elevator dinged behind him, and then rumbled open. The masked man looked at Odin.
The disappeared place shook his head helplessly and sighed: "Oh, being a hero is tiring." Then he slowly got into the elevator...
* * * * * *
After walking through the dark corridor, Lina entered room 4407, but the scene before him made him open his mouth and could no longer close it. The ***'s body was lying in pieces on the bed, but the whole house was not.
There was no trace of blood and only strange fragments scattered on the ground.
Lina has admired her father since she was a child. He is a very good scientist and works for a large company. After her mother died, her grandmother came from Phoenix City in Weiguo to take care of them. The three of them and the puppy Man left behind by her mother
Manman lived together for thirteen years. When her mother died, her father told Lina that Manman was the incarnation of her mother. As long as she was there, her mother would always protect the family. But then her father changed and Manman became seriously ill.
They didn't care at all. Later, Manman died, and her father had no feelings at all. Moreover, Lina still remembered that her father had said a long time ago that grandma would live a long life because she was the real backbone of the family.
But now her grandma is dead. She doesn’t know who killed her grandma? Was it her father or those monsters? Or these monsters were originally invited by her father. There was an oppressive air all around, and Lina wanted to cry, but she couldn’t make a sound...
…
"I'm sorry, miss, how can I help you?" A very elegant black shadow emerged from the darkness, with a pair of fleshy wings vaguely growing behind the shadow. His voice was low and magnetic, and Lina felt that her soul was about to be absorbed.
It was as if the voice had been sucked away... Could it be that she was the evil devil who stayed away from home.
At this moment, she felt someone holding her shoulder. Turning her head, she saw the unfamiliar mercenary in gray.
The mercenary looked directly at the shadow in the darkness with cold eyes. Both parties stood there without saying a word, as if waiting for something to come, and the whole air was stagnant. Lina found it difficult for him to take a step forward.
But in the end what should come has come...
"Wow, Brother Bu Jiyuan, it's so boring to stand in a daze in this dark place." As he said this, he heard the light switch snap. A burst of bright light shone on everyone, and Lina couldn't help but narrow her eyes because she wasn't used to it.
Eyes. But when the light was turned on, the whole room fell into dead silence, a terrible dead silence.
Lina carefully opened her eyes, and found that the young man wearing a mask, Odin and a masked man with black wings were standing in a triangle shape and facing each other. A strong murderous aura rushed towards her face. The young man in the mask
It seemed that he was frightened and wanted to withdraw from the killing field that was completely inconsistent with his strength, but his whole feet kept shaking like chaff.
"You just don't want to leave?" The black-winged masked man broke the unpleasant deadlock, but his question was even more unpleasant.
"I'm not going far away." Odin seemed to be very tired of this question, and at the same time as he answered, Purple Rain appeared in his hands.
Everything almost happened in an instant. The purple rain emitted thousands of rays of light and immediately swallowed up the masked demon on the opposite side. Odin followed the countless purple lights he released and shot at the black-winged demon like a huge arrow. The black-winged demon seemed to be captured by Odin.
Shocked by his aura, he involuntarily took three steps back, and then hurriedly built a thick black energy barrier in front of his body. But just when the purple light arrow mixed with the force of thunder was about to confront the black barrier, in the darkness
Suddenly, two black figures appeared. A strange green light emitted from the forehead of one of them. The purple light tracks were distorted by the strange green light, and they shot towards the wall.
At the same time, another black shadow attacked Odin from the side with lightning speed. Odin's attack on the black-winged demon was not slow at all, he just freed up his left hand to greet the incoming attacker.
A cold light flashed!
The attacker's sharp claw was caught in Odin's left hand. The attacker chuckled, and the sharp claw held in the gray-clothed mercenary's hand suddenly spun rapidly like a blender. Odin's right hand was immediately stirred to pieces with blood and flesh.
.But the gray-clothed mercenary did not let go, on the contrary, he clenched tighter. Odin smiled gently at the man with the claws, and at the same time, he stretched out his left hand, imagining purple rain. Then he calmly turned around and slammed the demon's head.
With a bang... the Demon Claw Man dodged to the side in panic, dodging the fatal blow, but the arm held by Odin was torn off alive. The Demon Claw Man let out a shrill scream and flew away.
He walked out and fell heavily against the opposite wall.
Without stopping for a moment, the gray-clothed mercenary turned his gun.
Then, the light and shadow from the roar of the purple rain coated the entire room with a layer of pale purple.
"Old Four, Old Six." Odin's power seemed to be beyond their imagination. The demon on the other side of the black barrier became a little nervous. Through the barrier, he shouted the names of his companions loudly.
The three-eyed demon stopped attacking, puffed up its mouth and made a weird "Uh-huh~" sound. Lina suddenly felt very uncomfortable, as if her head was about to explode. When she looked up, the young masked man beside her
It seemed that people couldn't bear this terrible demonic sound, holding their heads and banging around in the house like crazy.
Ziyu had already broken through half of the black barrier, and even opened a long crack. But just when Odin passed through the center of the black screen, the weird hissing sounded, and a sense of indifference suddenly surged through his body.
The continued feeling of exhaustion, could it be...
Seeing that the terrifying man in front of him finally fell down, the black-winged demon let out a long breath. Then he turned his eyes to the young masked man who was still holding his head and crying out in pain: "I thought you didn't handle the matter.
Okay."
"You!" Lina looked at the young man in surprise.
"I was the one who seduced you. We knew a long time ago that there would be no one in the elevator and you would come to attack us. Because our opponents are the warriors closest to God. But all our companions sacrificed their lives and finally let Bu Jiyuan step onto us.
The trap set. Hehehe..."
"Aren't you a fan who never leaves home? Then why do you want to harm him?"
Hearing this, a trace of imperceptible melancholy flashed through the eyes of the young masked man, but it quickly disappeared: "Yes, I also longed to live freely between heaven and earth, but that is all
That was what happened before my heart was taken away by my master. In fact, there are many things that I cannot control."
"Then you don't want to fight for freedom?"
"Freedom? I have even forgotten my own name." When he heard this word, the young masked man was already confused. He ignored Lina and leaned towards the black-winged demon obsequiously, with greedy eyes.
He was begging for something: "This guy is very agile and almost didn't step into the trap we set for him. Fortunately, he was quick to wit... but he was only scratched a little by the poisonous knife we planted..."
"You've done a good job." The devil took off his mask, and his beauty stunned Lina who was curled up on the ground. Against the height of 1.9 meters, this devil gave people an unsmiling, cold and capable feeling. He
The lines on his face are elegant and have the flavor of ancient works of art: the Greek-style nose, the muscle structure look healthy and strong, and the calm and passionate eyes are so blue that they are so black that they are so black that they are purple. His strong hands look very beautiful, casual
A certain movement will definitely make men obey, and women will be eager to kiss him when they see it. In short, the whole person reminds people of the Indian Bacchus designed by the sculptor.
The devil elegantly stretched out a beautiful hand, kissed the dog-like man, and then threw a strange pill to him. After swallowing the pill, the young man's pupils suddenly dilated, as if he was enjoying it. In Lina's eyes
In his eyes, the lively and positive young man just now completely disappeared, leaving only an empty shell without a soul.
"Miss Lina, you can call me Earl Dark." Earl Dark smiled charmingly, and then said to Lina: "Let you meet an unexpected person. Maybe he can explain to you the meaning of freedom."
Then he clapped his hands gently, and a body was thrown out of the darkness by the three-eyed demon on the side.
The fat body twisted and tried to get up from the ground, but its whole body was tightly bound by thick ropes and it was completely unable to move.
"Dad." Lina stretched out her hand to help Odin, who was so exhausted that he couldn't even speak. But at this moment, she saw clearly the face of the flesh lying not far away. Maybe she didn't need to see the face at all.
Lena could tell him apart.
"This is the man who killed your grandma. He had a stupid reason, and that was freedom." Earl Dark seemed to be dismissive of both the fat body on the ground and the thoughts in the body.
"Dad, why did you kill grandma?" This matter touched Lina's most delicate nerve, and her voice trembled a little when she spoke.
"Yes, I do it for freedom." Old Dennis smiled helplessly and looked up at his daughter. Maybe he didn't expect that he would end up in this situation: "Lena, we actually live in a world controlled by humans.
In the game world, it’s just a game for them, but it’s all life for us.”
"Liar!" Lina has heard too many horrifying stories in the past few days, but the one she heard now is the most terrifying to him. In her own world, there is also entertainment like video games, she
Know what this means.
"We are (programs). We can never escape the fate assigned to us by the game program." At this point, old Dennis showed a ferocious smile on his face: "If I destroy all the related programs assigned to me by the system, I can get
Free."
"Grandma is not a heartless program!" Lina hated this shameless father: "You are a selfish beast."
At this moment, Earl Dark came to Lina and threw a strange box in front of her: "I like games very much, otherwise I wouldn't have come to this world. You all had to die, but I'll give you a
Chance. There is nothing in this box now, but when I call start, any conventional weapon that you have thought of in advance will randomly appear in it. The mutual regeneration and mutual restraint of weapons are all on the line. This is fair enough. However,
Only one of you can survive and be free. Hehe..."
Lina gritted her teeth and stood up, holding the box that could determine her fate tightly in her hand, and slowly approached her father. In fact, Lina didn't know what to do at all? She just wanted to ask her father a few questions.
Then Baron Dark came to Dennis, and with a slight snap of his fingers, the rope on Dennis disappeared. When he got the box, Dennis, who was still looking depressed, suddenly flashed a fierce light on his face...
"Dad, what is the most important to you? Do you think the things you gained after losing your grandma are more important?" Lina put her hand in the box and cautiously approached her father.
Dennis lowered his head and made an indistinct sound from the deepest part of his throat, like a beast wailing: "The most important thing is myself. To me, everything in this world is fake except myself. Fake."
!”
As soon as Lina approached her father and wanted to ask something, her father's fat body twisted and inserted her hand into his own box at an unimaginable speed.
Dad wants to kill me... He killed my grandma who loved me the most... and now he wants to kill me. Dad wants to kill me!!!
An inexplicable fear mixed with sadness surged into Little Dennis's heart. She subconsciously pulled out her hand from the box. The weapon Little Dennis transformed was a pistol, an extremely conventional weapon.
Dennis Jr.'s pistol shot out ruthless tongues of fire first, nailing Old Dennis' lust-filled body to the ground. Life is so fragile, even in this virtual world, such a simple action can end it.
"Why? Dad, why do you want to kill me... I love you so much." Little Dennis looked at her dying father at her feet, tears bursting out of her eyes. Because she knew that, whether true or false, the body lying on the ground was
She was her only and last relative in the false world. The gun in her hand fell slumped beside the old man.
"Because your father is an NPC, but I don't want to be an NPC all my life." Old Dennis' eyes were filled with a lonely smile.
"No, Dennis, you are not an NPC, you are a lost soul." The weak Odin raised his head with difficulty and revealed this final secret to Dennis.
"Hehe, you are worthy of traveling far away. You even know this." Count Dark looked condescendingly at Odin on the ground, and then turned his head to Dennis, who looked confused: "Mr. Dennis, we have spent a lot of effort for you.
Well. Outside the game world, you were once a very outstanding biologist. We, the Beastmaster Group, need your knowledge, so we killed you."
"Kill me?" Dennis was even more confused.
"Yes, but you are only physically dead, not brain dead. Your body is still lying in a hospital in New York, USA, that specializes in treating vegetative people. Our biological computer network only needs to inject a computer for the lost soul into a brain.
The biological computer can be logged in. In order to control you, we erased all your past memories and simulated your entire life. You have virtual parents, friends and lovers; you also have a well-paying job. We order
You try your best to live a more real and happy life."
"But I was discovered in the end." Dennis showed a very sad smile: "I am forty-five years old, have I been dead for forty-five years?"
"No, the time ratio between the virtual world and the real world is 24:1. In other words, one hour in the real world is equal to one day in the virtual world."
He has only been dead for two years. In just two years... he has gained another life in a trance... Are his relatives in the real world also looking forward to his waking up? Dennis raised his head lonely and looked towards the black-winged demon.
Ask: “Is everything about me determined by programming?”
"Yes, until this girl named Lena Dennis was born." Earl Dark showed an incredible smile: "What should I say? A hybrid of a Soul Reaver and an NPC. Haha... What is this?"
"The original happiness program was messed up, which gave me the idea of rebellion. It turned out to be a happiness program... Why would I think of rebelling against him? How is the value of life calculated here? Haha..."
"It's a pity that you violated the rules, so we had to let you die. By the way, there is also this hero who knew the crime..." When Dark's eyes fell on Odin, he snorted angrily.
He said, "I don't want to say it a third time. I'm not leaving."
"Hehe, Sir Bu Ji Yuan, I know you are a real person, but I can still erase all your memories and make you disappear from this world. Of course, I don't rule out that some problems will occur along the way and make you disappear forever." Dak didn't listen at all.
Ding's defense.
At this moment, Dennis's body suddenly twitched violently. He knew that he was about to die. So he subconsciously stretched out his hand, hoping that his daughter would come to him. But Lina stood there indifferently, motionless.
Dennis suddenly laughed, and he smiled helplessly. Just like that, he maintained his smile and breathed his last breath.
"Haha." Seeing the scene in front of him, Count Dark was obviously very happy. Then he turned to Odin, took two steps closer to him and said contemptuously: "It's your turn, the warrior closest to God in our world."
Odin raised his head weakly, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and then the situation took a surprising turn. Ziyu's vines climbed onto the three-eyed monster at some point, and he was pinched by Ziyu before he could shout.
It broke into pieces. Then Odin rolled on the spot, Ziyu retracted, and attacked the count again.
Fortunately, Odin killed the three-eyed monster first, buying time for the count. When Ziyu entangled the count, he had already mustered up all his strength to confront Odin head-on. But even so, Odin still had the upper hand.
The count's atomized hair has been completely trapped by Ziyu's energy network and cannot be used. Therefore, the count can only directly consume energy with Odin.
After all, Odin had been poisoned before and was a little weak, but he also knew that if he persisted, both he and Dak would be injured... The final winner would be the one who fainted with his hand disabled, the man with the iron claw, and the one who still had a gun in his hand.
Lina. As long as the Iron Claw Man doesn't wake up, victory will belong to her side. If she doesn't persist and lets Dak escape from the energy network, everything will change. The Count will be able to use vampire skills to perfectly eliminate everyone present.
Baron Dark also understood this very well, so sweat was pouring from his forehead.
But an unexpected person changed everything.
The young masked man who had taken the Earl's medicine seemed to have regained his energy. He suddenly rushed towards the energy net built by Ziyu like a madman. Although his body had no energy, the impact destroyed the impeccable defense system of Ziyu's spell net.
Earl Dark took the opportunity to complete the atomization technique. He turned into mist and escaped from the fatal attack. Odin, who had always been confident, could only give out a helpless smile and fell to the ground slumped.
"Master! I can't survive, but I feel honored to die for you." As soon as he reached half way, the earl was hugged by a masked man covered in blood. The masked man's eyes were so excited that his mouth lit up.
He kept mumbling something. But it seemed that the collision just now had destroyed all his internal organs, his face was as pale as death, and blood seemed to be seeping out from every pore of his body. At this time
The dirty man had already climbed up to the earl's waist, and was still climbing up...
But just as the count frowned in disgust, the man let out a very unpleasant howl, and then fell to the ground slumped and died.
"Trash." The count kicked the body of his lackey with disdain. Then he turned his head to Odin, but he seemed to be a little afraid and didn't dare to get close. So he walked over and grabbed the man who had been cut off because of the broken quilt.
Odin removed half of his shoulder and his clawed companion was already dying.
The Demon Claw Man was already somewhat awake. When he saw his elder brother's ghost fang, he realized what was about to happen. However, it seemed to be too frightened to speak. It could only huddle in the corner of the house and tremble desperately.
"Hmm~~~" The count pounced on him, and the clawed man twitched a few times and then stopped moving.
"Monster! Monster! Monster!" Lina, who had been staying aside, finally couldn't help but raise her gun and shoot wildly at the vampire who was munching on her companion, until she could only make a clicking sound when she pulled the trigger.
.
"Hehehehe." After a while, the vampire Earl raised his blood-stained head. After sucking the blood of his companions, he seemed to have fully recovered his strength, and his eyes flashed with terrifying light. To be precise, he is now
Stronger than before. The gun in Lina's hand fell to the ground.
When the count stopped laughing, the whole room fell silent. Everyone could only hear the heavy breathing of the seriously injured and dying Odin. A gust of draft blew through the room, raising the disgusting smell of blood. The whole world
It seems as if everything has turned into a Shura hell.
"Never leave the distance, never leave the distance. I think you are so heroic, but you fell into my hands today..." The count said as he walked towards Odin, but Odin now didn't even have the strength to defend himself.
"Grandpa is here."
The voice came from behind, but when the Earl heard this, a cold hand was already on his waist like a ghost. An unstoppable force began to invade every nerve in him, and
It quickly spread to his brain.
When the count turned his head, he first saw the wretched masked man. Soon, a set of conspicuous golden helmets and golden armor appeared on the masked man... and there was a pure boyish smile in the eyes of the golden armored warrior.
"Never leave!" The count shouted this name in a tone that was almost desperate and helpless. This was the name of the warrior who was called the closest to God in the entire virtual world.

Looking at all this, I suddenly wanted to laugh.
When I was climbing just now, I finally found his life gate at his waist. I am born to be a lazy person. Even if I am very strong, I only want to solve it with one point, and the other nine points have to rely on trickery. Haha...
…
I released my biological computer, Xihuang, and quickly invaded his main computer chip. Whether a vampire, a devil, or an angel, everyone in our world has only one life gate. This life gate is his master.
Where the chip is hiding, as long as I find him and decipher the code, I can eliminate any strong person, even if his level is a hundred and I am only level three. The difficulty lies in finding this life gate.
"Don't leave far!"
The vampire Earl trembled in front of me, not only his voice, but also his body. However, it was not my overwhelming power, but a desperate fear that controlled him. When he tried his best to call the man called Austria
When Ding's man was knocked down, he realized that the real me appeared in front of him unscathed and controlled his body... This is the effect I tried to achieve with so much effort.
However, what he didn't expect was that I didn't actually control his body at all. I found his life gate, but it still took time to decipher the password. And my best key to unlocking his life gate was his fear.
.I think the heart lock of the man named Odin lying over there is not so easy to open.
"My hero, let me go, I'm just following orders."
"I'm sorry, you have to die because you have seen my face. Before you put on that disgusting mask on me, you decided your fate." In this world, if you know my name, what will happen?
Anyone who sees my face must die. But generally I try to avoid this situation.
"I'll keep it a secret, I swear to God."
When I said this, I had unlocked the code to his life. A pleasant smile appeared on my face.
Woo~~~
I won't talk nonsense with my opponents. This is also my principle as a mercenary. The vampire Earl wanted to say something else, but his data has been completely cleaned by me. After a muffled groan, he was as slumped as a puddle of mud.
fell to the ground.
Everything seemed to be over. I turned to face the two remaining NPCs not far away and smiled easily. But the female NPC seemed to have remembered something and stood up to question me directly.
"If you were hired by dad, why didn't you protect him? Didn't he hire you to kill my grandma and protect her life? What is your purpose?"
"..." I didn't answer her because I thought my work should be done and it was time to leave.
"It's a pity that your mission failed because your employer is dead." Odin got up from the ground, looking like he was still seriously injured. But I wasn't happy to hear what he said.
"Do you know? I promised the two old men to let a girl be free forever, so that she will not be controlled by anyone. I am a mercenary and must be loyal to my job. Brother Odin, you are the one who cannot complete the task."
"Two old men?" Odin and Lina blurted out almost at the same time.
"It's the two old people who love you the most. They exchanged their lives and all their money for my promise. From now on, Miss Lina has been included in the list of my younger brother's protectors. If anyone troubles you, I will go to him."
Trouble. I think the Beastmaster Group is not stupid enough to make an enemy of a little brother for a little girl. Hahaha..." I suddenly stopped laughing and froze there for a while, then completely disappeared from this world.
.

"Ashi, come here and have dinner. All you do is play games all day long. If you put half of your energy in playing games into studying, you would have won the Nobel Prize in Physics long ago." It was my mother who was calling me. Haha, she didn't know just now
What a great thing my son has done in the Taiyi world.
I took off the virtual reality helmet and jumped out of bed. By the way, this year is 2098, and the game I just played is the most popular large-scale virtual reality online game in the world. Its official name is Taiyi Fantasy.
However, people are more accustomed to calling it a black hole. My ID in the black hole is "Bijiyuan".
