The sky was full of stars, as if a dark curtain was sprinkled with tiny diamonds. Even without moonlight, it still cast a hazy light.
Under the night sky, Zhou Zhou had no intention of appreciating the starry sky above his head. He just anxiously called out to the unconscious person on the ground.
"Al, Al."
At the moment before the starship was torn apart, Zhou Zhou had no idea what they were going to encounter. After all, Elvia looked too calm, as if what they were about to face was not a catastrophic disaster, but an exercise that had been prepared long ago.
Although Zhou Zhou had condensed into a physical entity, he was ultimately just a shadow projected by the bracelet, so at the last moment, he could only watch the starship turn into ashes in an instant.
They originally thought that they would also disappear instantly like the starship, but in an instant, everyone was covered by a layer of extremely bright white light, which enveloped the people inside and was pushed out by the powerful airflow of the explosion.
Like meteors in the universe, they fall in different directions.
Zhou Zhou didn’t know where the others had gone. He was held tightly by Al, and then the two of them fell towards a huge planet together. The white light surrounding them kept weakening and finally disappeared before landing on the ground.
After the white light completely disappeared, Zhou Zhou clearly felt that a layer of transparent barrier had risen again around him and El, but this barrier was unevenly distributed, with the largest amount on his body and El's wrists, while El himself was only covered with a thin layer.
These barriers not only protected them from the rapidly decreasing air pressure and high temperatures, but also continuously slowed down their falling speed.
Until they landed safely on the ground.
Zhou Zhou is not a human being, and his body is just condensed light. Not only can he see the whole process clearly, but he also did not suffer any harm.
But Al was different. Although he had no wounds on his body, he had been unconscious since falling to the ground. Zhou Zhou shouted at him for a long time but there was no response.
Zhou Zhou didn't know where this place was. The surroundings were desolate. With the help of his good night vision, he could see green plants in the distance, but he was not sure whether there were any human habitation.
Al had no obvious external injuries, so Zhou Zhou had no idea why he was unconscious. In addition, there was no hospital nearby, so he was unable to diagnose and treat Al.
In the quiet night, only Zhou Zhou's occasional calls could be heard.
Al lay quietly on the ground with a frown on his face. Even in a coma, he showed signs of physical discomfort. His face was pale and his lips were gradually cracking and bleeding.
Zhou Zhou could not feel the pressure and high temperature they were experiencing when they fell. As long as there was no problem with the bracelet, he himself would not feel anything no matter what the circumstances, so he could only watch Al fall into a coma.
Originally, Zhou Zhou wanted to take Ai'er to a place with green plants in the distance. Although he didn't know where this place was, since there were plants and Ai'er could breathe smoothly, it meant that this planet was suitable for human habitation. There was a high probability that there was a human settlement, but he didn't know how far away it was.
But then Zhou Zhou discovered a problem. Although he now had a physical body, it was no match for the flesh and blood body of a normal human being. With just a little force, his arms would pass through El's body, and he would not be able to pull or hug the other person at all.
what to do?
Zhou Zhou gradually became anxious. Al's condition was unclear and he couldn't keep wasting time like this.
After observing the surroundings again and making sure there were no traces left by any animals or humans, Zhou Zhou looked at Al's cracked lips and prepared to look for water nearby.
He would not be too far away from Al. After all, leaving the defenseless Al alone was a helpless act. If he was too far away, he would not have time to react if something unexpected happened, so he could only search in a small area.
Looking back at Al every few steps, Zhou Zhou walked towards the oasis. However, before he reached it, his body began to become hazy. After taking a few more steps, his whole body began to become transparent.
Zhou Zhou quickly took a few steps back, and his body finally became clear again.
He bit his lips tightly and finally remembered that the bracelet could only allow him to appear within a range of fifty meters. Beyond this distance, his current body could not be projected over.
I was so anxious before that I forgot about this matter.
Zhou Zhou could only search within a radius of fifty meters, but unfortunately found nothing.
When I returned to Elvia again, he still showed no signs of waking up.
Anxiety, impatience and worry lingered in his heart. For the first time, he hated himself for not being a human. If he were a human, he would be able to do more now instead of just watching Al lying unconscious and doing nothing.
Zhou Zhou felt very uncomfortable as he couldn't enter the game or find help. He felt his heart was in a knot but he didn't know how to relieve this emotion.
"Al, wake up."
Moving his eyes downward, Zhou Zhou saw the black bracelet on Elvia's wrist. His data was in the bracelet, so he could appear here with the help of the bracelet. If he wore the bracelet himself, could he go further?
Zhou Zhou tried to take the bracelet off Alvia's hand, but just when he was halfway through, Alvia grabbed the bracelet reflexively.
"Al, are you awake?" Zhou Zhou asked hurriedly.
But apart from grabbing the bracelet, Elvia did not make any other moves, and naturally did not respond to Zhou Zhou's questions.
When Zhou Zhou tried to take off the bracelet again, he found that Elvia was holding it tightly in her hand and he couldn't take it off at all.
The last method could not be executed either, so Zhou Zhou could only stay with Elvia, observing his reactions and the surrounding situation from time to time.
Apart from this, he didn't know what else he could do. Only then did he realize that usually Al had prepared everything in advance, but once an unexpected situation occurred, he could do nothing.
The breeze was blowing gently, but Zhou Zhou was full of thoughts.
Before entering the Nightmare City, he had plenty of time every day to daydream and think. Since entering the Nightmare City, the time he had for quiet thinking has become less and less.
He has more and more friends around him and more and more things to do.
Even when he was not busy, Al would always be by his side, accompanying him on tasks, or the two of them chatting and playing games.
The loneliness that I once felt at all times was slowly soothed away, and the memory of being alone was filled with the figure of another person.
Shirley and Cole had work to do, and other people would disappear and leave for various reasons, but the one who stayed by his side the whole time was Al.
He never seemed to have thought about what would happen if Al left one day.
Because he won't leave.
Zhou Zhou himself didn't know why he had such an idea, but he was very sure of this. Even if everyone else had to leave, the person who would always stay with him would definitely be Al.
But now, looking at the unconscious Al, Zhou Zhou felt fear again.
The last time was because his life was threatened and he was worried that he would disappear from this world forever.
This time, I was worried about Al and what to do if he couldn't wake up.
Zhou Zhou sat next to Elvia with his knees hugged, feeling powerless all over. For the first time, he began to reflect on himself. He had been helped too much by others and had been protected under their wings for too long, but he had never thought about his own future.
For him in the past, perhaps being able to survive successfully was the only pursuit. It would be even better if he could continue to perform his duties as a love NPC. This is the future he envisioned.
Not until now, after seeing the wider and more real world, did he realize how shallow his thoughts were.
An imaginary person who wants to survive in the real world has no foundation and no ability to match it. He can only rely on the help of others to wander between the two worlds.
So when faced with unexpected situations, he was helpless and could only watch Al get hurt while he could do nothing.
Zhou Zhou hated this feeling, he hated the feeling that he could do nothing.
He reached out and held Al's other hand, begging, "Al, please wake up soon."
In the wilderness, two small figures snuggled up to each other, looking particularly lonely under the starlight.
Zhou Zhou looked down at Elvia and suddenly noticed something unusual.
Holding Al's hand tightly, he suddenly raised his head and looked somewhere vigilantly.
There seemed to be a person standing far away in the darkness. The figure seemed to have merged with the darkness and his appearance could not be seen at all. It was too far away. Even Zhou Zhou could only identify the other person's position by relying on his night vision ability.
For Zhou Zhou at this moment, no matter who it is, as long as there are people here, it’s enough.
They originally wanted to go over and ask for help, but that person walked straight towards them.
Zhou Zhou watched the other person's movements carefully and finally confirmed that the other person was really walking towards them, and that person seemed a little strange.
His face was blocked by his long hair, it was pitch black and he couldn't see anything, and he was moving very fast. He seemed very far away just now, but in the blink of an eye he was much closer.
The legs barely moved, looking more like they were... floating.
Zhou Zhou gave up the idea of going over to ask for help and stood in front of Elvia with some caution.
It's not like he knew nothing. There were very few people in the interstellar space who had night vision, and it was definitely not easy for the other party to spot them from such a long distance at night.
In addition, Ai'er is the emperor of the empire, and it is said that he has many political enemies. The other party is coming here with a clear goal, so they might be enemies.
But now he had no way to take Al with him, so he could only wait for the other party to come and understand his intentions.
Moreover, if it is really an enemy.
Zhou Zhou glanced at the unconscious man lying on the ground. As long as Al could get treatment, the rest would have to wait until he woke up.
Having met all kinds of players, Zhou Zhou is no longer the simple and silly NPC. He watches the other party approaching calmly, with his vigilance raised to the highest level.
The night was originally clear and breezy, but suddenly a strong wind blew up, sweeping up the dust on the wasteland. The figure not far away was distorted for a moment in the strong wind, and Zhou Zhou even lost the other person's figure in his sight for a short time.
The next moment, the other party appeared directly in front of Zhou Zhou.
Zhou Zhou immediately protected Al, like a fledgling trying to protect himself and his companions, staring at the man who suddenly appeared with unknown purpose.
The other person was wearing all black, with black hair covering his face. The fluttering hair and the black clothes blowing in the wind showed abnormality everywhere, like a ghost.
Zhou Zhou was not afraid of the other party's unexpected appearance. He was just worried that the other party would hurt El, so he kept blocking the other party's view of El.
"Who are you?"
"What are you doing here?"
Although he couldn't see the other person's eyes, Zhou Zhou could feel that the other person seemed to be staring at him and Al for a long time.
He suddenly spoke in a hoarse male voice with an inexplicably familiar pause.
As he spoke, he used his hand to push away the hair that was blocking his face.
His eyes were pure black without a trace of brightness, his skin was pale, his lips were ashen, and he looked like an evil ghost coming to take his life.
If an ordinary person saw such a person at night, he would definitely be terrified.
However, Zhou Zhou's eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked expectantly, "Do you know Molan?"
