Chapter 29 People who fall short will die in society



The dead black history suddenly attacked me

Just as Xie Qi was about to ask what illness his friend came to treat, he suddenly saw a familiar person walking out of the elevator that had been out of service. He was wearing flip-flops, a home T-shirt, limp hair, and black-framed glasses.

He subconsciously looked at Wang Xiaoye's face again, his expression was shocked, dazed and puzzled.

Is this a problem with his eyes, or...

Wang Xiaoye turned back following his gaze and waved happily, "Here."

The man who looked and dressed the same as Wang Xiaoye walked over silently, folded his hands politely in front of him, and bowed slightly to Xie Qi.

"Twins?" One is cheerful and easy-going, the other is silent and quiet. Although there is no difference between the two in appearance, there is no confusion when they stand together. Their temperaments and personalities are in sharp contrast.

Xie Qi knew at first sight that the person he met for the first time was this person, not Wang Xiaoye.

"This is the unfortunate bastard I was talking about, Wu Xu. Hahaha, you can't tell the difference between them, right?"

Wang Xiaoye hooked his arm around Wu Xu's shoulder and explained briskly, "This is the Slime's mimicry skill. He needs to acquire a certain amount of genetic analysis before he can use it. He can transform into many different forms in the game world, but none of them are suitable for the three-dimensional world. To prevent him from picking on people on the street, I reluctantly provided him with some blood."

As if to prove this point, the person Wang Xiaoye was hugging suddenly turned into a pool of transparent blue mucus as if melted in the sun, but in an instant it condensed into a human form again.

Perhaps because he had seen too many strange non-human creatures since inheriting the hospital, Xie Qi accepted this matter very well after a brief surprise.

Wu Xu knew from the beginning that the new boss of the hospital was a human, so he knew Xie Qi's identity the first time he saw him. He originally thought that no matter how unreliable Wang Xiaoye was, he should at least remember to explain his situation, but after listening to the introduction just now, he realized that he hadn't.

Seeing that Xie Qi didn't look uncomfortable, he was relieved and showed a well-behaved and shy smile.

It's so intense that even the Shura ghost would want to reach out and touch his head.

Xie Qi muttered to himself, "This is a ruthless person in front of me, a powerful existence who fought back from a low-level monster to become the world boss..." He muttered to himself several times and finally suppressed his hand that was about to move.

Wang Xiaoye made two "tsk tsk" sounds and looked up to mess up Wu Xu's hair. Wu Xu predicted it and saw his head soften and turn into a blue transparent slime, which dodged Wang Xiaoye's hand in a crooked manner.

This sudden scene was honestly more terrifying than a horror movie. Xie Qi calmly digested it, noticing that Wu Xu remained silent the entire time.

"Are you here to treat your voice?" he inquired.

Wu Xu shook his head, his fingers flying in the air as if forming seals as he signed. Xie Qi didn't understand a single word of what he said. Looking at his dancing hands, he dreamed of the video of deaf-mute people arguing that he had seen before. Bewilderment was written in his left eye, and admiration was written in his right eye.

Wang Xiaoye patted his friend's shoulder and reminded him subtly.

He reacted and extended a finger. A message appeared in a dialogue box made of blue transparent liquid: "I'm not a patient. I'm here to be adopted. I want a companion to fight alongside me."

Wang Xiaoye explained, "TCX will be updating its version soon. This period of time is when NPCs have the most freedom, and it's also a time for those who are innovating."

It was during a game update that Wu Xu successfully escaped the level restriction and got a chance to change his job. At this stage of the update, the Demon King was about to emerge, and he wanted to seize the title of Demon King. The ability of his companions was secondary, and the most important thing was their loyalty, which would never betray him.

Ever since Wu Xu entered the game world, he has always suspected that the game world is a real world. At the same time, he has also been wondering what the purpose of the manipulator behind turning the real world into a game is.

This is also the reason why he wants to become a demon king. Ever since he changed his job to become the world boss, Wu Xu has had a vague intuition that if he wants to explore the secrets of that world, he must stand high enough.

Curiosity kills the cat. Although Xie Qi wanted to learn more about the game world, his past experiences taught him not to act rashly, so he held back.

Xie Qi used the black card's permissions to open the computer at the reception desk, logged into the hospital's internal system platform, and actually found the adoption business module.

There were rare and exotic animals that had lived half their lives and no longer wanted to struggle and were looking for a long-term meal ticket; there were also divine weapons and sharp blades that had been stranded in the hospital for a long time and had lost contact with their owners for various reasons; and there were also some races that could not live on their own... Xie Qi also saw a huge egg in the information, and the remarks column read [Flame Dragon Clan, both parents died in battle].

The only thing most of them have in common is that they have been stuck in the hospital for a long time and are unclaimed.

This adoption business has been running for more than 20 years, but only a few children have been adopted.

Xie Qi didn't know the specific adoption procedures, so he led his men to find the head nurse, Wang Xue. Along the way, they could hear the mechanical creatures shouting, "King! King!" Luckily, most of them were welded shut, so no matter how excited they were, they couldn't jump from the ground, walls, or ceiling. Each group of nurses who passed by lined up and saluted, as if they were being inspected by their leader.

They shouted in unison: "We offer our highest respect to the Supreme King! We are willing to go through fire and water for the Supreme King!"

Such a uniform and deafening slogan shocked everyone, and everyone's eyes on Wang Xiaoye changed.

Wang Xiaoye covered his red face and said, "You did a good job. Don't do it next time."

They were even more excited: "Wang Jianfeng's direction is exactly what our hearts desire! Let's salute the birth of the Lord of the World!"

They clapped, and the others hesitantly followed suit one by one, until the applause was thunderous.

Wang Xiaoye: "..." The salty fish king recalled how he, a veteran otaku, had gradually graduated from a middle school student. Some things that were fun to do in private with friends or with like-minded people would be a social failure in real life.

He smiled stiffly, hating that he was the only human being and couldn't dig a grave on the spot to lie down in.

“Some people are alive, but they are already dead.”

"The dark history of the dead suddenly attacked me."

"People who are stabbed will die, and people who are immature will die socially."

"Uh..." Wu Xu took advantage of his inability to speak and mocked his friend harshly with a dialog box that kept changing text.

Xie Qi: “…” Grab the bamboo shoots.

Xie Qi originally thought that Wu Xu's requirements were not high and the adoption should be a natural outcome, but he did not expect to be rejected all the time. As dawn approached and the hospital was about to close, he still had not found his destined companion.

The root cause is that after staying in a peaceful place for too long, they no longer yearn for fighting, while those who are interested feel that Wu Xu's goals are too ambitious, and they are not strong enough and will eventually be abandoned because they lag behind.

"Promises and oaths are all empty words. Who among us is not going against the will of heaven? Who would willingly compromise just because of fate?" said a broken sword.

It was a rare calm and peaceful sword that Yu Qiehan brought out from the sword tomb. However, it was said that it was broken by its owner himself.

"Will you give in to fate?" It asked everyone present with a chuckle. After laughing, its voice calmed down again, "It's not worth it."

Xie Qi was stunned, and suddenly he understood why the adoption agency's business success rate was not high.

Just when Wu Xu thought he couldn't find a suitable companion, he encountered the Holy Sword of the Brave sent from the Demon King's City in the eighth ward.

After Wu Xu nervously explained his conditions, the sword spirit of the brave sword asked only one question, "Kill the brave man?"

Cut? Or not cut? Wu Xu hesitated for a moment, and finally told the truth, "My relationship with the heroes (players) is not good."

"So, chopping? Got it, let's go now." The Brave Sword delivered itself directly to Wu Xu's hand. The gemstone embedded in the sword flashed impatiently. It said, "My title transfer has a bonus. Critical hits are more likely to occur when chopping Braves, and experience points and reputation points will increase by an additional 5%."

"Ah!!" Wu Xu was extremely surprised. In order to avoid any further complications, he completed the adoption process on the spot and asked Wang Xiaoye to help pay for the remaining medical expenses and hospitalization fees of Jian.

Xie Qi felt a little strange and checked the sword's file. He watched it change from the "Holy Sword Obtained by the Brave from the Church" to the "Fallen Sword of Vengeance".

"Light the candles and bless." Wang Xiaoye put his hands together and prayed for the TCX players for less than three seconds without any sincerity.

When Wu Xu was leaving, the Shura ghost, who only cared about eating, came out to see him off and proposed to eat only one hundred million mouthfuls, but was flatly rejected.

She could only watch him go away, tears streaming from the corners of her mouth.

Xie Qi was really afraid that she would be dominated by her appetite, so he rushed over without caring about anything and quickly pulled her back.

Fortunately, it was already dawn outside and it was almost time for dinner. Shura Ghost couldn't possibly delay the meal no matter what he did.

There were almost no people walking around in the hospital at this time. Only a mixed-race man in long-sleeved shirt, long pants and a scarf came in from outside carrying a takeout box. He was wearing a pair of glasses and his face was almost as white as the wall.

The man seemed to look over here curiously, paused, and quickly looked away, taking the takeaway and walking inside slowly.

Xie Qi also looked at him twice. After all, it was quite rare to see someone wearing such thick clothes in a weather of 26 or 27 degrees.

——

The man entered the elevator, pulled his scarf down, opened his mouth and exhaled a puff of white smoke, his sharp teeth pressing against his lips. He leaned against the wall of the elevator, looking at the floors above that kept jumping, recalling the scene he had just seen.

A medieval gothic girl with curly silver hair that winds down to her ankles.

Ancestor Anna.

"So you are here." Louis licked his lips, his eyes behind the lenses were scarlet.

The author has something to say:

I really just want to insult jj by real name. I had originally finished writing a beautiful chapter, and set it to be updated at midnight, and then as soon as I confirmed it... 3110+ words turned into the original 941?

I didn’t have any backup, so I coded it on the spot and planned to go to sleep after finishing it!

What makes the author wail late into the night? What makes the workers angrily pound on their computers? And what makes a woman who had set a set time to update her work stay up until the early hours of the morning?

It’s you, rubbish Jinjiang, your Shar Pei smoking method!

Jin, are you asleep? I'm not.

Thank you very much for your support. I will continue to work hard!
