Chapter 1443 Heart-eating Beast 9
An old man walked up with an expressionless face and said in his unique voice, "Good morning, fellow S-level players. Welcome to the Clearing Plan Alliance."
As the old man spoke, Fu Anan looked around and saw that the place was densely packed with people. Apart from a few people who were just there to make up the numbers, there were at least hundreds of S-level players!
so much!
She also recognized the old man on the podium, the one who organized other players to attack the virus in the last round of the game. She didn't expect that he was still alive and was still organizing players to attack the virus.
Fu Anan shrank back to the bottom of the bench, trying her best to avoid being seen.
The old man above said after a brief introduction, "As someone who has participated in the super virus removal plan, I hope everyone will listen to what I am going to say.
First: The super virus can be disguised as the big boss and NPC in the game, human, non-human, and even non-living things.
Second: The Super Virus can simulate the abilities of the strongest boss in the game, and I was the only one back from the last kill.
The third and most important point is that if you want to kill the super virus, you must first destroy its core. If you want to destroy the super virus's core, you must force its body out."
As the old man spoke, a picture appeared on the slide behind him.
This is a manuscript.
The image above depicted the virus's final act of killing all players. A blood-red sky, a black robe hanging in mid-air, and a figure completely covered in it, the only visible sliver of gray bone beneath his chin.
Fu Anan suddenly remembered what he saw before he fell into a coma.
It turns out that it wasn't a dream. The super virus looks really scary. When I created it, did I not have time to give it a nice skin?
"Also, the super virus isn't just fighting alone; some players have betrayed the game."
The old man spoke slowly and then turned his gaze to Fu Anan. The moment she came in, he noticed her. Then a ray of light hit Fu Anan, and she instantly attracted everyone's attention.
"You're not dead."
Yang Jie was confused when he saw this. How did things suddenly develop to the point of affecting his Captain Fu?
Lu Shen sat aside, his face expressionless but his brows furrowed.
Everyone in the room focused their attention on Fu Anan, and a strange undercurrent was surging.
At that moment, it would be a lie to say I wasn't nervous.
But Fu Anan soon calmed down. She stood up with a confused look on her face, "Uncle, are you mistaken? I don't take you seriously."
joke.
Almost everyone who played in the previous round was dead, leaving only the two of them. No one else knew what had happened, so they just had to listen to their nonsense.
"Uncle, we came here because you said there were traces of the super virus here, not to listen to your unfounded talk."
Fu Anan stood there and looked at him, "If you just want to frame me or others for no apparent reason, then you've made a wrong calculation."
After she finished speaking, she took Yang Jie and Lu Shen and left.
Then he was stopped.
In a short period of time, the old man actually gathered quite a few followers. They stood beside him and swore solemnly, "The wise man will not lie. Everything he said is true."
The gathered players watched as both sides showed no intention of intervening. As Fu Anan had said, they had come because of the information about the virus's traces, and they wouldn't be swayed by a few words, let alone join either side.
At most, they felt a little unhappy and angry because the old man had deceived them, and they wanted to see them fight and expose each other's abilities.
Yang Jie seemed a little nervous among a group of S-level players.
Lu Shen looked at the old man calmly, with a half-smile on his face.
"Cao Lei, let them go."
The old man gestured to let them go, which was a bit unexpected.
Before they left, he suddenly said, "A super virus will appear soon. Before that, our people will not do anything to cause internal friction. In addition, we will cover your expenses for the three days of the cruise."
This heroic speech is very appealing.
Three people walked out, and Yang Jie was the first to lose his temper. "Are all those people in there really S-level players? I'm so nervous. Speaking of which, that old man is really rich. How many points must he have spent to dare to say such a bold statement?"
“You don’t necessarily have to spend points.”
Fu Anan glanced at Lu Shen, who was taking advantage of the rich man for free, and then stopped. "Do you believe what the old man said just now, or what I said?"
"Of course I believe you."
Yang Jie immediately responded, demonstrating his loyalty, "I've only met him a few times. How could I possibly trust a stranger?"
Fu Anan was very satisfied looking at the big silly guy, then she looked at Lu Shen next to her.
Lu Shen reached out and suddenly flicked her forehead. "I don't need anyone to tell me. I'll see for myself what I want to know."
He believed her too?
This seems to be the meaning when I first heard it, but when I think about it carefully, it doesn’t seem to be the case.
“No one needs to tell him”, “He will see it himself”
This probably means that he doesn't trust anyone.
And when he thought about his special ability at the beginning - controlling people's minds, he wanted to know what controlled her to say it herself...
Fu Anan looked at him warily. This man was not simple.
Lu Shen smiled at her and said, "Why are you so nervous, my little girlfriend?"
##
Even though the old man said all expenses were covered on the cruise, Fu Anan wouldn't use their money. However, because of this, many people noticed her and gave her suspicious looks, which was very annoying.
Fu Anan held his breath.
The second floor of the cruise hotel
Fu Anan was dragged out to dinner by Lu Shen in the name of "cultivating feelings".
Red roses, dinner prepared by a five-star chef, flickering candlelight, classical music accompaniment, and the person sitting across from me was also very handsome.
Honestly, this is definitely a classic candlelight dinner.
Fu Anan was a little restless.
To avoid Lu Shen's gaze, she glanced around and suddenly saw a few familiar faces at the gambling table downstairs. These people had placed a lot of chips in front of them tonight, and the others at the table were covered in dust and had pale faces after losing a lot.
Aren’t these the old man’s followers?
Fu Anan left the stool and leaned on the railing, watching the people below. Not long after, they won a small amount again.
"Speaking of which, this wise man is quite impressive. He can actually make money from gambling."
Lu Shen cut into the steak and ate it gracefully. He took a sip of red wine and said with a smile, "You are worthy of the title of wise man."
sharp?
What a bullshit.
It’s just playing dice and cards, she can do it too.
Fu Anan stood up and rolled up her nonexistent sleeves. She was about to leave when she paused, thinking for a moment, and said to Lu Shen, "I'm full and want to go downstairs to digest my food."
Without waiting for his answer, she ran away without caring about anyone.
