Chapter 59 Any creature that threatens human beings is a pest
The words of the hook-nosed captain made Russell think again and again. Maybe this world is not just eight-legged monsters, but also contains other things.
Russell thinks so because in the previous world, in addition to the plot of the League of Assassins, Smith was also involved.
The League of Assassins is one line, and Smith is another line. There is no conflict or interest relationship between the two, but there is an implicit connection. The Cross and the Unlucky Councilor serve as the hub to seamlessly connect the two plots, just like the NPC that dispatches tasks.
Branch lines can be expanded.
Although the world mission only exists in the main line, everyone living here has flesh and blood, not cold data, and there is no such thing as NPC. But the hooked nose is like the cross at the moment, playing the role of NPC. In the plot of the eight-legged monster,
Extending a new branch plot for Russell.
Thinking about the hooked nose, and recalling the world mission of 'finding out the truth about the mutated spider incident and eliminating the source of the mutation', Russell realized that he was beginning to come into contact with the truth of the world. Not only giant spiders, but also supernatural beings hidden in this world.
Such power.
"System, is the world so chaotic every time you travel through it?"
Russell had some headaches, the world painting style was off, the difficulty of completing tasks was greatly increased, and the original plot lost its reference.
【Host……】
"Speak humanly!" Russell muttered silently in his mind, directly interrupting the cold electronic sound.
"Dad, I don't know very well either!" Luoli's voice sounded, seemingly malicious and cute, but actually gloating about others' misfortune, and the system became itchy again.
"You have experienced so many hosts, don't you know?"
"You misunderstood. Although I have assisted many hosts, the database was established after I gained self-awareness. There are countless worlds that can be traversed, and the worlds recorded in the database add up to less than
But a grain of Hengsha is insignificant. Therefore, I don’t have enough information to answer your question accurately.”
The system replied seriously, not sure whether it was true or not, and finally added in a lowly manner: "Uncle Luo, even though I have assisted many hosts, I am an experienced system, but I don't have much time to have self-awareness. With reference to humans,
At the same age, he is still a child!"
Russell: "..."
What do you mean, implying that I don't want to beat you?
Russell's dialogue with the system seemed to Hawk Nose to be a sign of conation, and his silence was due to thinking. If he applied more force, the fish would bite the bait.
"You are confused about your own power and don't know how to define yourself. I know this feeling. Many of us feel like this."
"What?"
Russell looked confused. Who are you talking about?
"You don't have to deny it. I've asked someone to investigate your past. To summarize briefly, you are taciturn, withdrawn, and have no sense of existence." The hook-nosed voice sounded like an experienced person: "Compared to a fanatic who abuses his own abilities.
, I prefer people like you who don’t put yourself above others..."
"In the eyes of outsiders, you were hit by the death of your parents and became depressed, but I know that you were confused about your abilities. You found that you were different from ordinary people, and you couldn't find anyone to talk to, so you became disgusted with yourself.
Don’t like contact with other people.”
Russell nodded and said painfully: "Yes, everything you said is right."
The hook-nosed man laughed: "But we are different. My team is full of weirdos. If you join us, you don't have to be afraid of who your power will hurt, and you can also make many friends."
"I'll interrupt, what will happen if you don't join?"
"Nothing will happen. It will remain the same as before. No one will interfere with your life! It's just...because of your special nature and to prevent unnecessary trouble, you have to receive regular check-ups and psychological counseling."
Humane approach...but just listen, don't take it seriously.
Russell glanced at Chris next to him. After the hooked nose mentioned special people, he froze in place, as if a restraining spell had been applied to him.
"A small amount of hypnotic ability is effective for those who are weak-willed and mentally exhausted, and will not leave any sequelae." Hook Nose explained.
Russell nodded. Chris had been very tired recently. He pretended to think deeply for a while, and then said with a solemn expression: "I will join you, but I have a request."
The hook-nosed man smiled faintly: "Tell me and listen, but I can't guarantee that I can satisfy you."
"I can work now, but I will really join you after we deal with the spiders. I want to see how you work. If the safety of the residents of the town is endangered, then I would rather live an ordinary life."
Russell spoke righteously and instantly established a glorious image. He did not lie, but he would leave after completing the world mission. He cannot be blamed for failing to fulfill his promise.
The hook-nosed man was stunned for a moment when he heard the words. He had heard many requests, but this time it was completely different. He looked at Russell with more admiration: "Very good, I like responsible people. I agree to your request."
The conversation was very pleasant. Russell showed an image of a person who has useful special abilities and is afraid of his family and friends. This kind of person has a strong sense of justice, has obvious weaknesses, is confused about his own position, and can be easily controlled with a little guidance.
"What is our team's name, and what should I call you?"
"Sorry, everything will be kept confidential until you officially join."
"Okay, so what do I do next?"
"Go to the mine. I want to evaluate your strength and let you get familiar with your future teammates."
Russell asked doubtfully: "Now?"
"That's right, now, we have been delayed for too long, and the big shots are starting to get impatient." After saying this, Hook Nose closed his eyes, frowned, opened the corners of his mouth slightly, and muttered certain words silently.
Russell looked at the hooked nose suspiciously: "But do you know where the spider is?"
"I probably know!" Hook-nosed opened his eyes suddenly: "Your adoptive father discovered a gold mine, but no one found it later. Miner Leon also said that he had discovered a gold mine, but no one found it. The spider entered the mine.
The hole disappeared out of thin air, and we... found neither gold nor spiders."
Russell then said: "The spider is hiding at the entrance of the gold mine, which is hidden by some kind of power."
"Yes, spiders have always been there, but we didn't find the entrance."
As the hook-nosed man spoke, he took Russell out of the office.
Downstairs, 21 fully armed soldiers lined up in three rows, waiting for departure in front of the armored vehicle. They closed their eyes with their hooked noses in front of them, just to contact their subordinates.
Russell took a look at it secretly. He didn't know it before, but now he thinks that these 21 FBIs are probably all capable. He stepped forward and leaned closer, but unfortunately, not a single lottery was triggered.
Hook-nosed took the weapons handed to him by his subordinates and put them on himself with the help of two people. Russell was also given equipment, combat uniforms, respirators, helmets, goggles, dog-leg knives, and hand-held jets.
"What's this?"
There is gas in the mine, so it is impossible to use firearms, and it is impossible to deal with spiders with bare hands and a dog-leg knife, so the injector is a weapon.
"This is a biological pesticide!" Hookbi finished wearing it and explained on the armored vehicle: "In order to cope with the complex conditions in the mine, it was specially developed. It is an air freshener for humans and other mammals, but
It is extremely lethal to pests and can be described as a devastating blow.”
Russell held the sprayer and suddenly remembered what Mike had said.
"Spiders are not pests!"
Hook-nosed: "That's the public's definition of pests. In my opinion, any creature that threatens humans is a pest!"
The armored vehicle stopped at the entrance to the mine closest to the gold mine. Four soldiers guarded the entrance. Hooknose, Russell, and the remaining 17 people all walked into the mine.
"It doesn't matter if there are just a few of us?"
"It's okay, just go back after exploring the road!"
Russell: "..."
Damn, this is very disturbing!
