Xiao Zhimiao woke up on the bed in her room. She stared at the ceiling in a daze for a while, then turned sideways and met a pair of deep eyes.
After Xiao Zhimiao was stunned for a few seconds, he jumped up from the bed.
"Kart? Why are you in my room!"
If she hadn't looked at the room decoration and confirmed that it was the house she had lived in for more than ten years, she would have doubted whether it was still in the game.
Carter sat up and leaned lazily on the bedside table, "You finally woke up. I have seen you sleeping for almost a day."
Xiao Zhimiao was speechless. This dungeon boss not only came out of the game with her, but also lay on her bed and watched her sleep all day.
Who would stare at someone else's sleep for a whole day? Isn't this a pervert?
"Why can you get out of the game?"
Logically speaking, Carter should be a person in the game or another world.
Carter said: "You can come out, why can't I come out?"
"I am a player and you are a game NPC!"
"Who told you I'm just an NPC?"
Seeing Xiao Zhimiao clinging to the wall, far away from him, Carter said "tsk", "I won't eat you, why are you so far away from me?"
Xiao Zhimiao: "Why did you come to my world?"
Carter got off the bed, stepped on the floor with his bare feet, and walked towards Xiao Zhimiao.
Xiao Zhimiao has deeply engraved in his mind that Carter is the dungeon boss. Even if he comes to the real world, he will not treat him as an ordinary person.
Seeing him approaching, Xiao Zhimiao took down the bow she usually used for practice from the wall. Before she could put the arrow on it, Carter grabbed her wrist.
Xiao Zhimiao immediately let go of the hand holding the bow, quickly picked up a utility knife from the computer table nearby and pressed it against Carter's chest, "What do you want to do?!"
Carter was not afraid of the knife in Xiao Zhimiao's hand at all, and leaned forward to get close to Xiao Zhimiao, "That annoying guy sent people to search for my soul everywhere. Before I found my heart, I naturally hid in another place."
A safer world."
Xiao Zhimiao looked at this handsome face so close at hand and turned his head uncomfortably, "Then just go wherever you like. What are you going to do with me?"
Carter stared at Xiao Zhimiao and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, "You killed my body, of course you are responsible."
Xiao Zhimiao saw that his face was almost touching hers, and stretched out his hand to push, "Those are the rules of the game. You go to the game planner, not me."
Xiao Zhimiao failed to push Carter. She was so close that she could hear the sound of gears turning in Carter's body.
It seems that he used the mechanical doll she put in the system backpack to come out with her.
"Do you really think it's just a game?"
"if not?"
Xiao Zhimiao turned around to face Carter and looked directly into his eyes.
Looking at the face in front of her, there was naturally no trace of fraud. If she hadn't known that his body was a doll with gears turning inside, she would have been confused.
On the surface, Carter looks like a real person.
Carter grabbed Xiao Zhimiao's hand and placed it on his chest, "My body is made of machinery, but I actually appear in front of you."
"Kitten, that world is real, and I am real too."
Carter's clear and slightly hoarse voice seemed to be possessed by the magic of that world, bewitching her.
Xiao Zhimiao rarely got so close to others, and she couldn't help but slow down her breathing.
At this moment, a ringtone interrupted the strange atmosphere between the two.
Xiao Zhimiao shrank down, got out from one side and left Carter's shackles.
Xiao Zhimiao picked up the mobile phone on the table and saw that it was a WeChat call from Lu Qingyang.
As soon as Xiao Zhimiao connected, she was bombarded by Lu Qingyang's loud voice. She put the phone away from her poor ear, and waited until the other end was almost quiet before she put it to her ear again.
"I see? Are you still there, Cicada?"
Xiao Zhimiao: "Alive."
Lu Qingyang: "Did you not listen to what I said just now?"
"Um."
Lu Qingyang: "......"
"Speak to the important point, don't talk nonsense."
Lu Qingyang said hurriedly: "I know I'm going to go to your house to find you. Have you just woken up? I'll bring you something to eat."
Xiao Zhimiao glanced at Carter, who was leaning against the wall and staring at her, and said, "Don't come, let's meet outside and have dinner outside."
"Okay, let's meet up somewhere. I'll go over and order some food first. I just woke up not long ago and I'm starving to death before I've eaten."
"It's up to you. I'll take a shower and you can send the location to my phone later."
After saying that, Xiao Zhimiao hung up the phone.
Xiao Zhimiao looked at the time and date. The phone showed it was seven o'clock in the evening on July 16. She should have entered the game around five o'clock in the morning yesterday.
From this point of view, the time in the game is the same as the time in reality.
Xiao Zhimiao rummaged through the closet for clean clothes and walked to the bathroom. Although the air conditioner was on in the summer, she still felt a little sticky and uncomfortable after not taking a shower for a day or two.
Xiao Zhimiao stood at the door of the bathroom, watching Carter follow her, and she felt the veins on her forehead beating.
"Can you please stop following me? I want to go in and take a shower."
"I don't mind if you take me with you."
Xiao Zhimiao said expressionlessly: "I mind."
Besides, does this doll body of yours need a bath? Ah? Will it be damaged if water enters it?
Carter seemed to have guessed what Xiao Zhimiao was thinking. He lowered his head and looked at her and said, "I'm waterproof."
"Really, the dolls I made will never get damaged no matter how you soak them."
Xiao Zhimiao: "...You are quite proud."
"Isn't it something to be proud of? I am the most powerful mechanic."
After saying that, Carter looked stunned, "I understand, you prefer the physical body. Although I am a mechanical body, the simulation is very high, no worse than the physical body. Next time I can make a doll body with temperature, as you like.
How to play."
Xiao Zhimiao:???What on earth is he talking about?
"I'm not interested in your dolls. You don't need to introduce them to me. Come on, I have to take a shower! Don't stand at the door!"
Carter took a step back, just a small step, and then stopped moving.
Xiao Zhimiao saw Carter looking at her with an innocent face, took a deep breath and said, "Is this your first time in this world?"
"yes."
Okay, she understands.
Xiao Zhimiao pushed Carter into the living room, sat him down on the sofa, and turned on the TV.
"This is the remote control. You can change the channel and watch it yourself. Don't touch other things. Can you hear it when I come out of the shower?"
Carter leaned back on the sofa and smiled like a fox, "I obey, little cat."
Looking at him, Xiao Zhimiao thought of the big golden retriever raised by Lu Qingyang's family. Whenever she went to his house, she would try her best to cling to others to make her presence felt. She wanted to get the owner's attention. She also liked to play tricks to achieve her goals. She was smart and cunning.
.
The Carter in front of me is exactly the same as the big golden retriever.
When Xiao Zhimiao came out of the shower, she saw Carter sitting on the sofa with a boneless look.
She was suddenly very curious. If his soul resided in this doll, would he have all kinds of human touch?
If he were just a robot without any feeling, he wouldn't behave as freely as a human being, right?
Carter turned his head and saw that the girl was wearing a small black suspender on her upper body, her pants were so short that her two slender straight legs were exposed, and her long black hair was wet and scattered.
Although he learned about the world through other players during the days when he was the local cave boss, he only had a rough understanding of the background of the world. He didn't know much about other things, such as the lifestyle of the people in this world.
In the land of God's presence, there is no such revealing daily clothing.
Looking at Carter's expression, Xiao Zhimiao had a feeling that he was running naked.
She suddenly thought that the background setting of the Land of God's Arrival was similar to that of the Western Middle Ages, and the daily attire in that world was probably not as cool as hers.
Ignoring Carter's look, she took the hair dryer and sat aside to blow her hair until it was half dry.
At any rate, he only expressed a little surprise in his eyes without making a fuss. It will be fine once he gets used to this world.
"Who is this guy?"
As soon as Xiao Zhimiao put down the hair dryer, she looked at Carter and asked her, pointing to a photo frame on the TV cabinet in the living room.
In the photo frame is a boy who looks to be only seventeen or eighteen years old, holding an eighty-nine-year-old girl from behind.
The boy had a clean appearance and a shy smile, while the girl had a cold face, no smile at all, and even her eyes were cold.
Xiao Zhimiao was silent for a while and then said, "That's my brother."
This photo was taken when Xiao Zhimiao was just picked up from the orphanage. Her brother asked passers-by to help take the photo. At that time, she was still a very difficult child. No matter her personality or anything else, she was very troublesome.
"Is he the reason you entered the game?"
Xiao Zhimiao put the photo frame into the drawer, "It's none of your business."
She turned to look at Carter and asked, "Do you know how players enter the game?"
"I generally know that everyone doesn't go in for no reason, they all have a purpose, or a wish."
Xiao Zhimiao remembered that a few hours before entering the game, she received a question and answer message that popped up on the interface.
The content of the message is:
If God could grant you one wish, what kind of wish would you make?
Xiao Zhimiao typed directly at the end: Bullshit god.
She never believed in any gods. If there were gods in this world, her brother would have come back long ago.
Although those four words were entered on the answer page, Xiao Zhimiao made another answer in his heart.
If there is such a one-in-a-million chance, if there really is a god who can fulfill wishes, she hopes that her brother can live well.
Xiao Zhimiao thought that maybe it was because she made this wish in her heart that she was thrown into the game and entered that different world.
Now that she heard what Carter said, she felt a little hopeful in her heart.
"So, does it mean that as long as you clear this game, the gods of that world will grant the player's wishes?"
"Bullshit god." Carter spat out a friendly word.
Carter said: "They can indeed be called gods, but they are not gods. They have desires just like mortals, and their desires are much greater than yours and can devour everything you have."
