Chapter048
It started to rain, and Shijiu found a place to take shelter. It was a small eaves.
This time the buildings here are somewhat retro, and are all built with red tiles.
It was very quiet around and the only sound was the sound of raindrops falling.
Shi Jiu just stood here quietly. She was not bored because she found a chat group for trainees that came with the game system.
All fifty trainees are there.
Not many people were talking, and most of the trainees were just lurking.
“There’s actually a chat group?”
"Oh my god, surprise!"
"Brothers and sisters, where are you now?"
"picture."
"It's in a dark and spooky place. To be honest, I don't even know where it is."
Someone started it, and everyone started posting photos of their surroundings.
The photo sent by the first person did catch Shijiu's attention. When Shijiu clicked on it, it seemed to be nearby her. She could vaguely see the familiar garbage mountain not far away.
The trainee who had previously posted a photo in the group sent another message: "By the way, I'm going to show you a very weird picture."
"picture."
“Please find the highlights yourself!”
“The picture isn’t very clear.”
"There's a glowing girl on the garbage dump?"
"Hahaha, there's a weird kind of beauty."
"Excuse me, which trainee is this? Would you like to come out and get to know him?"
When Shijiu was hesitating about whether to get to know the trainee nearby, someone in the group sent a message that attracted the attention of many trainees.
"Speaking of weird things, I also remembered one."
"What what?"
"Do you remember the ability to choose at the beginning of the game?"
"Then when I entered the game, there was a bug. I saw the player in front of me, and guess what? She had chosen all healing abilities! 100%!"
"!! Are you crazy?"
"Hahahaha, my goodness. Be careful then. He might be a powerful tycoon."
Shijiu silently watched the discussion about her in the group chat. Then she saw a familiar profile picture. It was the nearby trainee who had posted the photo. "Hahahahahahahahaha, what an idiot! Can you play games?"
Shijiu: “….”
The hand that was about to click to add a friend was silently withdrawn.
[Bullet comment]: Hahahaha, Ajiu looks helpless as if he has eaten a melon but ended up eating himself.
[Bullet screen]: Ajiu’s little expression is so cute, hahaha!
[Bullet comment]: The guy who said Ajiu was a fool missed the chance to be added as a friend by a beautiful girl, haha!
The city is very foggy in the morning and the whole city is slowly waking up.
Steam-whirring trains passed by again and again, carrying people in skirts and suits going to work.
Shi Jiu sat on a wooden chair by the roadside to rest. As the sun came out, the fog gradually dissipated.
Behind her was a small lawn where several children were running and playing.
Perhaps because her current appearance was too eye-catching, passers-by would look at her twice.
An entire night had passed, and Shijiu still hadn't received any information about the dungeon. Not even the most basic background information.
Shi Jiu held a newspaper in her hand. She had gathered a lot of information. She knew that the city she was in was called Fog City, and also Blood City. The environment here was not very good, and it was often covered in fog. So every morning and when the sun went down, the fog here would turn into a blood-red color.
She was now in the safe central city, where a small number of people had a strange ability: they could use magic, and people with this ability were called magicians.
"I will definitely become the most powerful warlock in the future!"
"Defeat all the puppet zombies!"
Behind Shijiu, several little boys were playing. They were still little sorcerers, practicing magic.
The child was wearing an elegant tuxedo, looking unlike an ordinary kid. He held a delicate little wooden stick in his hand and was concentrating on performing a spell.
There was a flash of white light, and the kid used a magic he wasn't familiar with, which didn't hurt anyone but sent his own flying.
"ah----"
Shi Jiu looked up at the child in the air. If the child really fell from that height, he would definitely be injured.
"Ah, what should I do!"
"He's going to fall!"
The children were all in a panic, and no one noticed that Shi Jiu, who was sitting not far away, moved her hand slightly, and a little green light appeared on her fingers.
The weeds on the lawn grew taller and thicker quickly, catching the falling child firmly.
When the child landed safely, the green grass gradually returned to its original appearance, as if nothing had happened.
"Wow, your magic is amazing!"
"The grass just now grew very tall!" The little boy's friends began to describe it with their hands and feet dancing.
Apparently everyone misunderstood that the grass that had just grown thicker was the magic performed by the child himself.
Shi Jiu smiled and looked down at the small flower in the crack of the floor beside her feet. Shi Jiu stretched out her hand and a little green light appeared at her fingertips again.
Visible to the naked eye, the small flowers in the gap have become a little bigger.
Shijiu knew last night that he had the ability to control plants.
Shortly after the rain stopped that evening, Shijiu ran into a few burly thugs. They had tattoos on their hands and were holding something like a photo; it was obvious they were looking for her. From their words, it was clear they were hired by someone.
Several people came to attack her, and Shijiu had no weapons. However, she noticed that one of the thugs was holding a very delicate steel weapon with some delicate gears turning on it. She also felt a strange power in the weapon.
At the same time, she discovered that there was a force stirring in her own body.
Shi Jiu took a step back and raised his hand uncontrollably.
Shi Jiu failed to control his strength the first time, and watched helplessly as several ferocious-looking men were wrapped into a thick ball by the rose vines growing on the surrounding walls.
She had originally wanted to get some information from them, but they had all been stabbed unconscious. She didn't wait for them to wake up, but left the alley on her own.
Shijiu sat in the chair basking in the sun for a long time, doing nothing, when he finally heard the sound of the game system.
【Task released, do you want to check it now? 】
Shijiu: [Check.]
【Clue Mission--Body in the Factory】
Bodies in factories?
Shi Jiu stood up and looked ahead. There were many factories in the city, with huge chimneys emitting smoke everywhere.
"Ajiu!" Just as Shijiu stood up, he heard a familiar voice.
It turned out to be Anqi who was calling her from the lawn not far away. Anqi was wearing a simple green dress and a beautiful white lace hat on her head.
Before Shijiu could say anything, Anqi had already run to her side.
"Are you okay, Ajiu?" An Qi walked over and held Shijiu's hand, looking left and right, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that Shijiu was not injured.
An Qi's first words and her actions made Shi Jiu feel a little puzzled. Shi Jiu immediately understood that An Qi must know something about her character.
"I'm fine." Shijiu said, "I want to ask, do you know the background of your game character?"
An Qi was stunned for a moment, "Of course I know."
Then An Qi understood something: "Don't you know the background?"
Shi Jiu: “Yeah.”
An Qi understood: "No wonder."
"Then you didn't meet any strange people, did you?" An Qi asked again.
Shi Jiu thought for a moment and said, "I met a few men last night who wanted to arrest me."
An Qi opened her eyes wide and said, "What happens next?"
Shi Jiu smiled and said softly, "They are too weak."
[Bullet screen]: Hahahahahahaha Ajiu is awesome!
[Bullet comment]: We, Ajiu, are not afraid of fighting ten people at the same time!
[Bullet comment]: I'm really curious about Shijiu's identity now. Why does it feel so complicated?
Just as Anqi was about to say something, a small helicopter suddenly flew past them. The shape of the helicopter was very unique, and the gear structure on it was clearly visible.
The small helicopter brought a strong wind, and the grass on the lawn began to ripple. An Qi immediately pulled down her flowing skirt, raised her head and roared, "You little bastard, I told you not to touch this thing!"
In the small plane was a little boy of about seven or eight years old, wearing a white flight suit and a helmet with huge glasses. "Wow, look! Look at my father's latest invention, the aircraft!"
"Isn't it awesome!" the little boy showed off.
This thing instantly attracted the attention of the children playing below: "Wow! That's awesome!"
"Sister, sister! Look how powerful I am!" The little pilot boy shouted at Anqi.
An Qi looked up and said, "You're so awesome! If you don't obey me, I'll beat you up!?"
Anqi took out her magic wand and threatened her brother while quietly explaining to Shijiu: "That's my brother Anqi in the game."
There was a mess around, and Anqi finally grabbed Anji by the ear. Anji was still struggling, but when he looked up and saw Shijiu unexpectedly, Anji blinked and calmed down.
An Qi wanted to send An Ji home first. When they arrived at their door, An Ji tilted her head and said to Shi Jiu, "Beautiful sister, why do I feel that you look familiar?"
Shi Jiu smiled and said, "Thank you."
An Qi patted her brother's head and said, "You look familiar, don't you? Go home!"
Finally, after seeing Anji return home, Anqi dragged Shijiu to a small cafe nearby. There were not many people in the cafe at this time, and they sat in a quiet corner.
There was some relaxing music playing in the cafe, and the coffee Anqi ordered arrived soon.
An Qi took a sip of coffee and looked at Shi Jiu, "Jiu, do you know who is the biggest capitalist and richest man in Blood City?"
Shi Jiu: “I don’t know.”
"It's Wayne." An Qi pointed out the window: "Look over there, the entire commercial street over there is his territory."
In the look of Shijiu saying, "So what does it have to do with me?", An Qi continued, "Don't think you have nothing to do with him."
"You are his fiancée!"
Shi Jiu: “?”
After An Qi finished speaking, she took out something that looked like a newspaper from her pocket and said, "Take a look at this for yourself."
"Wayne is rich, but he's a bit eccentric. He's very controlling, especially towards his fiancée."
"It is said that he never let his fiancée go out before."
"Overall, he treated his fiancée very well. Apart from not giving her freedom, he never treated her badly financially. He bought her clothes and jewelry by the car price."
"Also, the domineering president is very chaste and has never had any other women. So some women in high positions are quite envious of his fiancée."
"Just a week ago, his fiancée had an accident, and he actually found a lover outside. He insisted on running away from Wayne, took a lot of Wayne's money before leaving, and even hurt Wayne."
Shijiu: “….”
An Qi said helplessly: "And then you came."
“.......”
