Chapter 4: Uncomfortable, the resentment at work is greater than that of the ghost players always...
*
The electronic screen floating in the air found its target and landed in front of us like a flock of birds. The uniformed people in the hall came over quickly and asked us a series of detailed questions.
Through investigation, they finally confirmed three things.
First, this player's world has no information about my identity, not to mention my family situation. According to Xia Ping'an, I just jumped out of a crack in the stone.
Second, I learned that those uniformed people were not programmers or planners, they were similar to the knights in the player world, called police. I missed the creators very painfully.
Third, the ice cream is really delicious.
At night, the police said to Xia Pingan, "You have two choices now. One is that you become the temporary guardian of the child. If we find his family information, we will notify you immediately. The other is to keep the child and we will send him to a temporary institution."
Xia Pingan made a prompt decision: "I choose two!"
I turned my head and mouthed to him: "I'll come find you."
Xia Ping'an's mouth twitched, and he obviously remembered our not-so-good first meeting. He hesitated for a long time and changed his words with difficulty: "It's not impossible..."
"Then I'll leave this child to you. Please keep in touch at any time."
The police gave him a few words of advice and said we could leave. Xia Pingan took me out of the police station and looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle with a sad face.
I ruthlessly pulled him out of his melancholy, pointed at the huge electronic screen across from the police station and asked, "What is that?"
Xia Pingan took a look and said, "It's the new promotional video for Shenjuan 2.0. It's been promoted for more than half a month. There are advertisements everywhere. Don't you know about it?"
I really don't know.
The scene on the 3D electronic screen is vivid. Beautiful music plays briskly, and green-haired elves jump on the treetops, with eyes the same color as the new leaves staring at the people outside the screen, as majestic as the crescent moon in the forest.
A huge black dragon rushed out of the volcano, roaring to the sky. The wandering hunter wore a black and gold mask, with only half of his beautifully shaped jaw visible. He brought death to his prey silently.
The scene was frozen in the dead man's terrified eyes. A coin engraved with glorious wings bounced up and made a crisp sound when it fell on the table.
The scene quickly zoomed out, accompanied by ethereal chanting that was extremely religious. A black-haired god with an evil smile lay on a couch of bones, and his fingertips casually hooked up a bone flower, as if bewitching whispers would be heard in the next second.
On the other side, a golden-haired god sat high on the throne, his face handsome and sacred. A group of knights in armor stood in front of the church, the leader had blue eyes and bowed his head to pray for the golden-haired child.
The two popes turned their backs to the screen, exercising power on behalf of God. One walked in the light, holding a scepter; the other was bathed in blood, stroking the snake-shaped earrings on the tip of his ear with his fingertips, and the purple gemstone snake pupils were shining mysteriously.
Light and darkness, good and evil, both of them clearly impact the viewer's vision. Coupled with the luxurious soundtrack and beautiful modeling, people can't help but say that if you don't play it, you are a human being.
I thought that was the end, but after a long glissando, the screen suddenly went black.
The camera was raised from bottom to top, and with sobs like complaints, countless scarlet flowers came into view.
The vast expanses of flower fields are so gorgeous that they are dazzling, and they are surrounded by a river of still water, creating a sense of tranquility and peace.
An old wooden boat floated downstream, and countless dead souls swam in the water, stretching out their hands longingly towards it, scratching in vain, making unbearable noises.
The boatman was dressed in a black robe, his wooden oars skimming across the water. The camera zoomed in and showed him raising his head, revealing eyes as dark as the night, staring deep into an unknown place.
With a bang, the scene turned into broken glass, and the fragments fell to the ground and formed a line of large words.
["God's Favor 2.0" is about to launch a new expansion pack "The Fall of a Hundred Races", welcome to play! 】
My heartbeat gradually quickened, reaching an incredible level. I was actually in this expansion pack, was it time for me to appear?
That's not right. Why is there a promotional video for "Divine Favor 2.0" here? We don't even know the news internally!
I subconsciously turned my head to look at Xia Ping'an, but saw that he was looking at me with horror, his lips opening and closing as he said something, but no sound came out.
"Ding - BUG has been resolved, the system is being repaired."
"Link to the main NPC Death God Parka and start the recovery work."
The familiar system prompt sound rang out, as if through a layer of blurry frosted glass.
I looked down and found that my body began to split apart, like a scene of shattering glass at a hundred times slow motion, and everything around me became extremely slow.
I don’t know if I was disappearing or if something went wrong with them. Xia Pingan’s figure and the world in front of him all melted into the darkness. In the end, I was the only one left standing in the darkness again.
With a beep, a blue loading bar popped up in the black screen, and this time it made it to the end. With the familiar scene switching sound, I broke free from the system's cutscene and slowly opened my eyes.
What came into view was a pair of emerald green eyes.
My heart skipped a beat and I smelled the sweet flavor of fruit.
*
Plant scent and green eyes are standard features of elves.
What needs to be explained is that I don't have a very good relationship with the elves, no, to be more precise, with all life-related races.
After all, one loves life and the other specializes in death, so it's very polite of them not to fight when they meet.
So when I saw those eyes, my heart skipped a beat, and I instantly thought of no less than six ways to escape. What I said to Xia Ping'an was not false, in fact, I am really good at sneaking, escaping, tracking and so on.
After all, death always comes without a trace, and I have experienced human life many times and learned a lot from the living.
But thankfully, when the dizziness from waking up subsided, I discovered that the owner of these green eyes was a deer.
It had huge antlers and was probably as tall as I am when I stood up. It moved with grace and dignity.
I sat up and checked my body first. I was still using the shell of the cheap believer. The wound had been bandaged at Xia Ping'an's house, so there was no need to worry for now.
While I was checking my body, the deer stayed quietly beside me. When I fastened my clothes again, I found that it had brought a bunch of berries from somewhere and placed them next to my hand. Its emerald green eyes looked at me, as if waiting for something.
I asked tentatively, "Is this for me to eat?"
The deer didn't say anything, just kept staring at me until I finished eating, then it moved its head away and knelt on the ground next to me.
No wonder the elves always say that animals are good friends. At this moment, I truly believe it. If you give me another chance, I will definitely make the deer the sacred animal of the church when I manage the earth.
The newly-harvested berries were sour and sweet, and tasted delicious. I ate them while observing the surroundings. This was undoubtedly a very old forest, and the trees I saw were all as thick as a man's embrace.
I quickly filled my stomach, thanked it, stood up, and chose to walk eastward in the direction of the tree rings. The deer stood up and followed me, but I didn't pay much attention to it because I was concentrating on finding something.
Not long after, I heard the sound of water and followed it to the river. At the riverside, I finally found my goal. It was a group of sparkling, extremely beautiful hexagonal flowers that looked like diamonds. Looking at them, I couldn't help but sigh deeply.
really.
Working overtime is a mistake. I should just sleep soundly in the kingdom of God.
This little flower is called "Gem Fairy" and only grows in forests where elves live for a long time. And the only place in the entire continent where elves live for a long time is the Fairy Forest. But I am more familiar with its other nickname.
Thousands of years ago, when I was fighting with other gods, the forest goddess put up a sign here, which once became an alias for the gods.
The sign read "No Death or Dogs Allowed."
Therefore, the other name of the Elf Forest is "the place where death and dogs are not allowed to enter."
There are thousands of landing options, why did you choose to land here?
I sighed, really regretting what I did.
