In a trance, she saw a vague figure.
"Is this today's data test result?" The voice was distant and near, making it difficult to hear clearly. "It's quite stable..."
She opened her mouth and said a few words, but she couldn't hear what she said.
The other party laughed: "You are still being picky!"
The light and shadow blended into one, and the sound seemed to have been processed with special effects, becoming a little harsh.
She frowned, watching the scene before her gradually distort. A final burst of signal interference murmured, and a force pierced her head, sending a stinging pain through her body.
Lu Cai suddenly woke up with a gasp of cold air. He took a few deep breaths before he slowly took in the scene in front of him.
She lay on her side on a flat, light grey ground, and at a glance, she could see the dark wall at the end.
My eyes slowly moved up along the wall to the ceiling. Metal rods crisscrossed horizontally and vertically were hung from the ceiling, and various electric wires were entangled and spread out along the metal rods.
Does this scene look familiar?
Lu Cai lay down and saw someone sitting behind her. She immediately tensed up. When she saw the person clearly, she froze in place. For a moment, she didn't know whether to fight or not, but it would be weird if she didn't fight either.
The man was wearing a light grey linen Tang suit, his short hair was straight and slightly messy, his right cheek was facing Lu Cai, and the scar under his ear was very conspicuous.
666 was lowering his head, wiping the scabbard of his ring-handled sword with a white silk handkerchief, his expression focused and his movements meticulous.
Lu Cai hesitated for a moment, propped himself up and sat up. 666 did not stop the whole process and did not even look at her.
When she sat up, she realized that they were on the roof of a shop in the commercial street. There were very few customers on the street and many shops were closed.
She returned to the community field.
Recalling what happened after he fainted... Lu Cai secretly glanced at 666, watching him carefully wipe the scabbard. Was the scabbard that he was holding tightly at that time his?
"You brought me out?" she asked in a calm and friendly tone.
666 paused for a moment, still expressionless, and then continued to wipe the scabbard.
Lu Cai curled his fingers and clenched his fists. Watching his movements, he couldn't help but think: There's no need to be so disgusted...
On second thought, not everyone is as rough as she is. It's not incomprehensible that someone values their weapon. But Lu Cai didn't quite understand. He'd fought with this knife before, and they'd bumped against each other. He couldn't possibly have to clean it repeatedly, right?
But the other party did not try to catch him, and Lu Cai did not want to cause trouble for the time being.
"Thank you so much this time. If you need any help in the future, just come to me!" Lu Cai vowed, and added a few more words silently in his heart.
Killing and setting fire to her is impossible, and taking her life is also impossible. But other favors can be considered. If I can lend a hand when the time comes, it will be considered as a way of repaying her.
666 acted as if he was deaf and didn't hear anything, so Lu Cai ignored him and slowly stood up.
She also checked her friend list and found that there was a signal. She sent messages to Qin Yu and Yue Xiaoyan.
As she stood up, her vision widened, and she realized that the two were at the top of the store directly across from Number 12. Lu Cai raised his hand and touched the badge on his cloak. The hood of his cloak had been torn by 666 last time, so it was a good time to get it repaired.
She didn't even consider the fact that she had no points. After all, Jiang Yan was interested in her arm bandage. It should be reasonable for her to lend it to him for research and to help him repair the hat, right?
Just as she was about to jump down, a group of men in black suits jumped up from the streets on all sides and surrounded her.
Lu Cai's first reaction was to the person called by 666, but then he thought, he had already caught the unconscious person, why didn't he take him back directly, and why did he contact others in such a roundabout way?
I remember that the last time we came out of the pond, he was fighting with two other companions.
There are also open and covert struggles within the "scavengers".
A tall man in black sportswear walked out of the crowd. His eyes fell on Lu Cai, and his face, which originally looked like he was watching the fun, gradually turned serious.
"BUG program?" 456 stopped, not expecting this scene. He turned to 666 and asked, "Are you really defecting?"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a light "clang" sound, and the long sword was drawn out of the scabbard. Lu Cai only saw the shadow of the sword flash in front of him, and then a figure in a gray Tang suit rushed out.
The man in black sportswear waved his hand, holding two forearm-length daggers and blocking 666's attack.
After hearing what the man in sportswear said, Lu Cai knew that this matter had nothing to do with her, and it was just bad luck that she ran into him. She quickly rushed to the street under the eaves, and four or five men in suits blocked her way.
If it was Lu Cai's first time in the community field, she would definitely feel that "it's over", but at this time she had seen a lot of things. She rushed all the way forward without even putting up any barriers. With just her fists, she knocked down several men in suits who were blocking her way, and finally kicked the one at the edge down.
Lu Cai also jumped down, and when he landed on the ground, he found that many players who were watching the fun rushed out from the shops on both sides.
She looked up and saw two high school girls in blue and white uniforms. The girl with short hair saw Lu Cai and excitedly grabbed the girl with ponytails next to her: "Look! That NPC!"
The girl with the ponytail pulled her back to the side of the road: "There's a street sweeper up there!"
The short-haired girl's excited expression froze for a moment, and she quickly followed the ponytailed girl back into the store.
Four or five more men in suits chased after him. Lu Cai glanced at the surrounding shops, turned around, and swung out a red thread. The red thread leaped onto those men, rapidly growing and expanding, enveloping them all in the barrier.
Lu Cai quickly ran away, avoiding the crowd and heading towards the stairs.
A knife flashed across the rooftop, snapping in half with a clang. The broken blade fell to his feet. 666 swung the knife again, and 456 didn't dodge. He was cut in the chest and fell backwards.
Dark shadows surrounded 666. The players downstairs were still watching, and some had even started taking pictures and recording. They watched as the men in black suits on the roof suddenly exploded and fell to the ground.
666 put away his knife and jumped off the roof, then ran along the path and left the shopping street on the 6th floor.
"Did you record it?" After the scavengers stood up and walked away one by one, a player excitedly asked his companions.
A companion checked the props for the photo: "It's recorded! Did you see that post last night? It's totally explosive!"
Players were also excited: "I saw it! It is said that players who entered that dungeon and left without moving, picked up five times the points for free!"
"Someone has studied the combat power of the Stone Wall Scorpion and said that players without special abilities will definitely be defeated if they go there—" The companion put away the props and entered the system forum to prepare to post.
"The players involved said that the dungeon belongs to the 'normal' mode. Now they are all suspecting that there is a malfunction inside the mission area. The boss of the 'normal' dungeon is not up to standard..." The player lowered his voice.
"Even if it's unreasonable, you have to go. Going into a dungeon is like risking your life—" his companion rolled his eyes at him. "Can you still complain to the management about the mission area?"
"Why not? Last time, there was a Buddhist player who had a dispute with the scavenger. Didn't he just report and complain, causing the scavenger to suffer a loss?" The player was not convinced.
His companion was amused: "He's on the list and worth a lot, who do you think he is?"
"You..." The two walked away arguing, and the community forum was extremely lively at this time.
Because of the fight in the shopping area on the 6th floor, there were suddenly several "actual combat analysis posts". Since the actual combat location was not in the dungeon world, but in the building where players live their daily lives, it was very popular.
The most discussed topic is "NPC breaking out of the dungeon world". The original two practical posts about Lu Cai were only in the dungeon, which can also explain that she was just jumping between different dungeon worlds.
But this time it's at a transit station where players are resting—
Comment 1: Is she really an NPC? Is it just an item effect? A player wearing a skin?
Comment 2: I agree with the above. In principle, NPC is just a string of numbers. Without the context of the copy, it is nothing.
Comment 3: The management doesn’t even dare to claim to understand the “principles of the game”. The person above is really a little genius.
The style of the posts gradually became sarcastic.
Some people are seriously analyzing...
Comment 4: Are all these men in suits scavengers? Why are they so bad?
Comment 5: Are you standing in a God's perspective, thinking that all players are like the two being besieged? No, you are just the dust they are stepping on.
Comment 4 replied to comment 5: The metaphor is well used, don’t use it next time.
Comment 6: There shouldn’t be that many scavengers, are these the reserves?
Comment 7: The guy in sportswear on the rooftop might be a scavenger. I heard they are all in casual clothes.
Comment 8: That guy in the Tang suit looks so familiar... Is he the one who always stares blankly at the door of your store @Tangjiatanghulu
......
Tangjia Tanghulu, sweet to your heart: It's him, standing outside my shop every day, staring at the Tanghulu. I saw he was quiet and quiet, pretty good, so I gave him a string of Tanghulu...
Comment 9: “Don’t talk, don’t make trouble” [/GIF]
Attached is a GIF taken from the video, in which the guy in Tang suit cuts off his sportswear with one knife.
Comment 10: The Tang family should just admit it, they just think she's pretty [/snicker]
Tangjia Tanghulu, which is sweet to your heart, replied to comment 10: I am straight and have a girlfriend. If I am misunderstood because of you, I will drown you in syrup!
Comment 10: @Tangjia boss lady who is sweet to your heart, the child is afraid [/cat is afraid]
......
Anyway, the style of the last post became more and more distorted.
Building 9F, No. 209, Building 2, Building Area.
The girl sat in front of the computer desk. Her hand, which was originally on the mouse, was clenched into a fist. Her fist was shaking slightly, and it was obvious that she was using a lot of force.
On her computer screen was an enlarged animated picture.
The young man in a light grey Tang suit slashed with his knife, and the man opposite him flew out. The blade was stained with blood, but the man's face remained calm.
There is no pity, no guilt, no helplessness. It is as if the blade is swung, life or death, everything is like a light feather, carried away by the wind, and finally falls into the dust.
She clenched her fists tighter and tighter, her nails digging deep marks into the skin of her palms.
