On December 21, 2023, the earth entered the tenth year of the Sixth Era. On this day, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and from time to time a bolt of lightning split the sky, which made people shudder.
Most people stayed at home, and the war temporarily eased due to the weird weather.
Outside Chengdu University in Shu City on Earth, music was playing loudly in an ordinary network, as if trying to drown out the roaring thunder and lightning outside.
Hundreds of computers are already filled with all kinds of people. Among them are handsome elves, short dwarves and ferocious-looking orcs.
Because, the earth has changed!
The end of the world did not come in 2012, but the real doomsday came at the end of 2013. The end of the world is not global warming, zombies, viruses, meteorites falling or the center of the earth erupting.
Instead, another world has arrived.
At the end of 2013, countless space passages were opened around the world, allowing the Earth and the Mage Continent to merge. The two civilizations collided.
The magic civilization of the Mage Continent collided with the technologically advanced Earth. There was no hand-to-hand talk, but endless war.
There are no dangerous space passages near Rongcheng. The people who come out of the nearby passages are elves and dwarves, and they miraculously coexist peacefully with humans.
Most of the people surfing the Internet are dwarves and elves. And they are playing "Warcraft 3"!
The game developed by Blizzard in ten years has not faded, but has become even more popular with the arrival of elves and dwarves.
This game has made friends from other worlds who were originally innocent become addicted to the Internet and become obsessed with games.
In the corner of the net, an elf girl is learning to surf the Internet. Behind her is a tall and thin man with a sloppy beard and a decadent look.
He was holding Elf's sister's hand and teaching her step by step how to surf the Internet. He was holding a bottle of Erguotou in his other hand, saying a few words and then taking a swig.
"Elf, you see it's easy to watch a movie. Click on this webpage. Well, yes, I'll help you choose a movie about your elves. Well, how about Lord of the Rings? Haha, do you think the leading actor is quite cool?
Handsome." The bearded network administrator said while holding the elf's hand and controlling the mouse.
The elf was sitting in a round armchair, unable to move, and was a little drunk from the smell of alcohol sprayed by the bearded man.
She felt that the bearded man was taking advantage of her, but he was eager to teach her how to surf the Internet, and she couldn't refuse.
Seeing that he was getting more and more aggressive and started to touch her hand, the elf almost burst into tears.
Just when I didn't know what to do, there was a sudden burst of shouting in the network. The sound was so loud that it drowned out the network's super speaker and the thunder and lightning outside.
It made everyone tremble with fear.
The dwarf boss of the website is looking for his employees everywhere. If you don't guard the stage properly during working hours, why don't you still work?
After yelling, no one answered, so he continued loudly: "Li Yinuo, I'll count to three! If you don't show up, I'll smash the photo frame!"
The elf felt that the bearded uncle who had taken advantage of him was gone, and he breathed a sigh of relief. He had long heard that there was an uncle on Xuanxuan.com who loved taking advantage of girls. He didn't believe it, but he didn't expect it to be true.
At the checkout counter, the dwarf boss was holding up a photo frame, as if he was about to smash it. From a distance, the bearded man leaped over at a speed faster than Liu Xiang's hurdles, grabbed the photo frame, and burped: "Boss, look at the time. It's already off work! Is there such a black-hearted boss as you? It doesn't make people feel comfortable after get off work."
The dwarf boss thought to himself, "Did I really misunderstand it? Damn it, it's all because of the weather. It's the same day and night."
Looking apologetically at the bearded man in front of him, he glanced at the wall clock on the wall from the corner of his eye, and his anger suddenly rose in his heart. It was time to get off work, but it was just past the end of get off work time, which meant that his employees were still working during working hours. Resign!….
"Humph, I don't care about you, but this month's bonus is gone!" The dwarf boss glared at the bearded man and strode away.
The bearded network administrator was left with a lot of slander in his heart, this black-hearted boss, who said dwarves can be honest and honest!
Seeing that the network administrator cherished the photo frame so much, the person next to him joked: "Brother Beard, I will buy ten or eight for you another day and you can keep it, so you won't be afraid that the boss will threaten you with smashing the photo frame again."
"Go and do your own thing and cause trouble!" The bearded man shook his head and walked towards an empty computer.
The bearded man named Li Yinuo has worked as a network administrator here for ten years. When the apocalypse came, Chengdu was extremely peaceful, so all the facilities were complete, but many bosses had changed from earthlings to dwarves or elves.
After sending this person away, Li Yinuo took a long sip of Erguotou. He was very unhappy today. Now his bonus was deducted again.
The mood is even worse.
My head was drowsy due to drinking, and I felt even more uneasy when I heard the thunder outside.
"Hey." Looking at the photo in the frame, Li Yinuo sighed.
It has been eleven years and today is your death anniversary. How are you in heaven?
Li Yinuo thought of his sister who committed suicide, raised his fist and slammed it on the computer table.
The wine bottle also fell to the ground due to the shaking.
"Clang!"
The crisp voice startled everyone around, but when they saw it was Li Yinuo, they all ignored it.
Brother Beard has a weird personality. Everyone knows that he is also nicknamed Brother Decadent. Some people who know the situation know that Brother Beard became decadent and debauched because his sister committed suicide.
But more people speculate that Brother Beard's decadence is because he likes the elf princess Sif too much, because the photo frame he carries with him has a photo of Sif.
A big star like Xifu is naturally inaccessible to ordinary people. Brother Beard probably lost his mind because of his deep love.
Li Yinuo never cared about other people's opinions. He usually went his own way and would take advantage of beautiful women when he saw them. He lived in a daze for ten years.
Today is probably the only day I wake up every year. Because today is the death anniversary of my sister.
Everyone thought he liked Xifu and brought her photo with him. In fact, the photo was the posthumous photo of his sister Li Xiaoxi.
She committed suicide ten years ago because she was defiled.
This was Li Yinuo's biggest regret in his life and the reason for his decadence. His originally good magic talent was wasted and he stayed in this small network and worked as a network administrator for ten years.
The computer started very slowly, and Li Yinuo became increasingly irritable.
He desperately hopes to turn on the computer quickly and play a single-player game of World of Warcraft. He doesn't play World of Warcraft much, but it's always when he's in a particularly bad mood.
Instead of looking for people to fight, I chose a few simple computers, adjusted their health volume to 50%, and brutally killed them several times.
In this way, you will feel more comfortable in your heart.
The computer is very weak, because it was still 10 years ago, so it takes a long time to boot up. Another world has come, and the earth's technology has advanced, but that is in the military field.
No one cares about the daily technological level, so it remains at the same level as in 2012.
Really impatient, Li Yinuo skillfully opened the cigarette case, took out a cigarette and held it in his mouth. He snapped his fingers, and a small red flame suddenly appeared on his fingertips.
He lit the cigarette and took a few deep puffs, then looked at the photo frame next to the computer.
The photo shows a girl wearing a white down jacket and a fluffy red ear hat that covers her small ears. This is why others misunderstand her as Sif. You can't see the pointed ears.
And her face is too similar to Sif's.
Sometimes, when Li Yinuo looks at Xifu, he thinks she is Li Xiaoxi who has returned. In fact, he understands that Li Xiaoxi has left him forever...
The computer finally turned on, and he opened Qiuqiu skillfully. Qiuqiu is still as popular as before. Li Yinuo doesn't have many friends, so he just opens it to see if there is any big news.
If something big happens that day, Qiuqiu will definitely pop up the news window.
As expected, news appeared as soon as I opened it. It was about Xifu. She was coming to Chengdu to hold a concert. The song she sang this time was her new work.
"Sif's latest masterpiece! Legend of the Mage. Completely created with the melody of the Mage Continent, it is definitely not to be missed."
It's Xifu again. Li Yinuo shook his head and chose to close it. He likes to pay attention to Xifu because she looks very similar to Li Xiaoxi. He doesn't go to see her performances. Qiuqiu's recommendation is quite good.
The melody of Mage Continent is indeed very beautiful.
I just opened the game menu and tried to look for the World of Warcraft icon, but another piece of news popped up.
"Tokyo, the capital of Japan, has suffered the worst blow in history. This time it is another tragic tragedy since the massacre of level 5 monsters three months ago. The great dark magician from the Mage Continent and the Gamma Empire cast
Level 5 dark magic, soul-stealing in the dark night. Hundreds of thousands of people have become soulless zombies! Japan claims that the great dark magician who cast magic has been hit by a mortar and is now dead!"
Click on it and take a look. The pictures are all taken from high altitude. There are no living people in Tokyo, they are all wandering zombies.
After reading Japan's claim that it had killed the spell caster, Li Yinuo curled his lips and sneered. It was another face-saving project. If the great magician could be killed so easily, would hundreds of thousands of people still die?
Tens of thousands of channels have been opened around the world, many of which are directly connected to the magical beast forest in other worlds. At the beginning, countless magical beasts entered the earth.
There were countless casualties among the people on Earth!
Now, as time goes by, the threat of Warcraft to humans is getting smaller and smaller. On the contrary, humans from other worlds are becoming more and more harmful to the earth.
When you find a planet with strong personal strength and a planet with weak personal strength, the first thing that comes to mind is not friendly relations, but colonization! Just like the original trading of black people, or the Indians of the American continent.
If you can't enslave, then exterminate! Unless they undergo the baptism of blood and fire and let time merge the two races.
These almost caused the destruction of the people on earth. But there will be a glimmer of hope at any time.
After the channel is opened and the air from another world is connected to the earth, humans on the earth can also feel the various elements in the air and practice the laws of elements.
It is also commonly known as magic.
Magic is not as difficult to learn as you think. Magicians and elementalists are not rare. Earth scientists prefer to call them superpowers.
Li Yinuo's method of lighting cigarettes is his superpower.
When he opened "Warcraft 3", Li Yinuo did not choose to connect to the Internet. There were many maps in the local area network. Many elves and dwarves who played "Warcraft 3" were here. All he had to do was join.
He did not choose to enter, but built his own host, choosing a classic game map ple.
This map is suitable for four people to play and has ten gold mines.
There are also four system stores where you can buy things like Boots of Speed, Talismans of Life, and Noble Rings. There is also a Fountain of Life in the middle, but there are many powerful wild monsters guarding it.
To kill the computer, first choose to turn on the fog of war.
Feeling a little dizzy and afraid that he couldn't beat the computer, Li Yinuo simply made himself a [cold computer] as a teammate, so that he would be foolproof.
He chose the human race, which makes people feel very friendly, with musketeers, tanks, planes, priests, etc.
[Cold Computer] is a random orc in the system. After looking at [Simple Computer], it is also an orc. There is also an elf tribe. But now we can see [Simple Computer] and [Cold Computer].
The difference is...
[Simple computer] Before it even started, the cold computer started digging gold mines and building houses, a series of actions in one go.
Li Yinuo drank a lot of Erguotou, and became confused and very slow, even worse than a [simple computer]. Fortunately, he still had a [cold computer] as his teammate.
The system gives away the main city and five farmers, and first lets three farmers dig gold mines, one farmer builds the hero altar, and the other farmer builds a house that provides population.
Next, Li Yinuo plans to recruit a few more farmers so that he can cut wood and set out for the military camp later.
At this time, the thunder and lightning outside became more fierce, and the sound had been transmitted to the network. Many people stopped what they were doing and stood up in front of the glass door to see what was going on outside.
Li Yinuo was not in the mood to watch, and continued to play games in a daze, only to hear those people exclaiming.
"Purple Lightning"
"Snapped!"
There was a boom, and there was a power outage. Purple lightning struck the roof of the building, interrupting the wires. Black smoke emitted from countless computers on the network. Occasionally, there would be a sizzling current.
Li Yinuo's last thought was: "Nima, drinking will really cause trouble!"
The dwarf boss used the light of his mobile phone to find out that all the computers were broken and he was in tears. The loss was huge this time. He brought his family and his family to the earth to make a fortune, but unexpectedly he encountered a natural disaster.
Suddenly his mouth opened wide, and he looked through the faint light of his mobile phone. There was the computer where Li Yinuo was sitting.
There, in addition to the LCD computer smoking, there was also a charred man who was also smoking. Maybe the lightning was too strong and the man's face could no longer be seen clearly. But the dwarf boss knew very well that he must be Li Yinuo.
