Chapter 314: The Unscrupulous Tasker in the Infinite Flow (22)
From Shen Guan's perspective, Su Yu submitted the answer, left the game, and returned to the real world.
But from Su Yu's perspective, it wasn't.
The system error message in her mind was sharp and piercing. Su Yu only felt her body lighten and everything around her became still. The surprise on Shen Guan's face stopped, the blood on his neck stopped flowing down, the footsteps outside the room stopped, and the banging sounds outside the door also stopped.
Su Yu thought she would be teleported back to the real world, but when she opened her eyes again, she was still in the game.
My body seemed to be imprisoned by something and I couldn't move.
She saw her vision getting darker and darker, and gradually, all the visible places were covered by darkness and turned into nothingness. It was dead quiet here, without a single sound.
Where is this?
Su Yu tried to call the system in her mind: [System? System, are you there? Where is this? ]
Ta-da, ta-da, ta-da.
Steady and rhythmic footsteps sounded in this dead silent place, getting closer and closer.
"You're the one who killed that idiot?"
A deep and pleasant voice sounded, the voice was gorgeous and magnetic, the tone was playful, with a kind of evil feeling of watching the fun, and it sounded a little familiar.
Soon, the darkness in front of Su Yu disappeared.
It was still dark in front of me, but I could see things clearly, like the hazy moonlight shining through the window. I could vaguely make out that the place in front of me looked like an ancient castle.
Hearing the sound, Su Yu's heart was filled with alarm.
In an instant, every pore in my body screamed danger.
The moment she was able to control her body, Su Yu reacted extremely quickly and rolled on the ground, hiding in the corner, while throwing the soul-destroying nail towards the source of the sound.
boom--
The huge noise caused a burst of bricks, stones and soil to splash in all directions.
Turning around, Su Yu broke out in a cold sweat and was glad that she had dodged in time.
She saw that the place where she was just now had become a huge deep pit.
If she hadn't reacted quickly, she would be the one in the pit now, and might have been crushed into minced meat.
"Not bad, the reaction is quite quick." The voice sounded again.
After listening to it again, Su Yu felt that the voice was even more familiar.
After saying this, the voice did not sound again, and even the footsteps stopped.
Su Yu didn't feel that he had left.
Suddenly, her heart started beating rapidly. The instinct she developed from playing games told her to get out of the way quickly. However, just as she was about to exert force with her feet, her throat suddenly tightened.
A pair of large hands with distinct joints mercilessly grabbed her neck.
Su Yu frowned, a fierce look flashed across her eyes, she raised her leg and kicked hard, at the same time she flipped her right wrist and slashed towards the person in front of her with a dagger. While the person was dodging, a revolver quietly appeared in her left hand and she pulled the trigger without hesitation.
"Bang——" a gunshot rang out.
What shocked Su Yu was that the man actually dodged at such a close distance. He was able to dodge a bullet, which was beyond the ability of a normal person.
Unfortunately, he dodged the bullet but not the dagger.
The man touched his neck and saw a deep blood mark across his neck.
"Tsk, that's really cruel."
Can you still speak if your trachea is broken?
While Su Yu was shocked, the man suddenly came over and bent one leg slightly to press against Su Yu's leg. She couldn't see clearly how he moved. Su Yu only felt a pain in her wrist. The dagger fell to the ground with a clang, and the revolver was also taken away by the man.
The hand that was pinching her neck slowly exerted force.
Su Yu felt difficulty breathing, her mouth opened uncontrollably, and tears welled up in her eyes.
She raised her moist eyes with force.
As the distance got closer, Su Yu finally saw the man's appearance.
In an instant, there seemed to be a loud thunder exploding in the air.
Su Yu finally understood why she felt that voice was familiar just now.
She uttered with difficulty: "Ling, Brother Ling..."
Su Yu wanted to ask him why he was still alive if he was already dead? And why was he here? Where was this place?
Of course, what she wanted to do more was to beg him to let her go.
Su Yu didn't want to die. She had been pulled into the game five times and hadn't died. She didn't want to die here for no reason.
A tear slid down from the corner of my eye.
Plop, it drips onto the hand connected to the neck.
The hand trembled as if being scalded, loosened its grip subconsciously, and then grabbed the neck again in an instant, but not as hard as before.
Su Yu gasped for air when she got a chance to catch her breath. The saline solution at the end of her eyes wet her eyelashes, which were tangled into wet clumps and hung down, looking miserable and pitiful.
The man seemed to find it interesting and raised his eyebrows: "I am not your Brother Ling. Your Brother Ling has been killed by you. Oh, you can't say that because he is not dead, he was just kicked out of the game."
Hearing this, Su Yu's heart skipped a beat. She looked up at him. Their facial features and contours were exactly the same, even the position of the inconspicuous mole at the end of their eyes was the same.
But if you look closely, you will find that they are indeed different.
Ling Hanye's pupils are light in color, glowing amber in the sunlight.
The man in front of him had eyes as dark as thick ink, glowing evilly under the moonlight. The corners of his mouth were raised in a frivolous way, and every expression was completely different from the gentle, upright, and well-educated Ling Hanye.
Su Yu's voice was hoarse: "Who are you?"
"Who am I?" He lowered his eyes, the evil smile on his lips slightly faded, his voice was very light, revealing a sense of desolate loneliness, "I don't have a name, but perhaps you are more accustomed to calling me... the system."
When Su Yu heard him call himself a system, she almost lost herself in his character, but she quickly realized that the system the man was talking about was the game system.
Su Yu breathed a sigh of relief. She had said that if the big fat cat in the system could turn into this, she would be in big trouble.
"What is your relationship with Brother Ling?"
Su Yu frowned, her throat felt like it was burning and it was extremely difficult for her to say a complete sentence.
"You're so perceptive." The man pondered for a moment, raised his eyebrows and said, "It's okay to tell you."
After hearing the answer from the man, Su Yu suddenly realized. No wonder she always felt that the protagonist's personality was a bit strange, and the description of the original plot was also strange. So that's it.
"You said you were the system."
Su Yu endured the pain in her throat and looked him in the eyes calmly: "So you can't kill me. I have completed the game, and you must let me go."
The system is made up of code. Since it is code, it has underlying logic and is subject to certain rules. Once the player completes the game, he can return to the real world. This is the rule set at the beginning and is also the most basic logic for the game's operation.
Maybe he could pull her into this dimension somehow, but he couldn't trap her here forever.
Sure enough, the man admitted it.
He chuckled, observed Su Yu with interest for a while, and said slowly: "You are very smart."
The moment she left this strange space, Su Yu's props were returned to her.
Without hesitation, she raised the gun, pointed it at the man, and pulled the trigger.
After the gunshot, she disappeared into the space.
The man dodged the bullet narrowly and looked up into the sky. The darkness and desolation in his eyes faded a little. His hand slowly touched his heart, which began to beat again after a long absence.
She is very capable and smart, at least smarter than that idiot.
The man gently stroked his heart. If a person is unwilling to accept even a part of himself, then that person must be the stupidest idiot in the world.
besides--
He seemed a little moved.
