"tasty!"
Wei Xicheng quickly stuffed the rabbit meat into his mouth, and his tongue stuck out to breathe out due to the burn, while he also gave a thumbs up in praise.
When he finished speaking, a huge firework burst out in the sky. The world bulletin was set off three times in a row, and the dazzling colorful scrolling subtitles allowed everyone to see the content above:
[Congratulations to the player for completing the hidden mission , and obtaining SSS-level mysterious pet egg x1, god-level job transfer scroll x1, gold coins x1,000,000, experience x100,000]
[Congratulations to player for becoming the first player in this server to obtain a pet. The pet system is now open. Please work hard to find your own pet!]
[Congratulations to player for completing the top hidden mission , gaining the bandit's favor x100, and unlocking the hidden mission (1/5)]
"What the hell?!"
"This is a god! What are the tears of a robber?"
"There's actually a pet system. If it weren't for the great god, I probably would never have known about this hidden function."
"+1 for upstairs."
There are many different opinions on the Internet, and without exception, everyone is curious about Yu Beiyan and is full of expectations for the newly launched pet system.
But for the person involved, Wei Xicheng felt very confused. How could the five tasks be completed so quickly? The rabbit meat that was still chewing in his mouth had lost its original deliciousness and tasted like chewing wax. He looked at Yu Beiyan beside him dully and found that the man's face was full of interest and smile.
How could he not be happy! He got such a huge benefit so easily, and also received the admiration of everyone. Look at how conspicuous the three words "Yu Beiyan" are on the world's bulletin, while he is only called "robber" and "bandit". Why! Wei Xicheng bit the rabbit meat twice, wishing that he could bite the man next to him on the arm.
"What is your dream?" Yu Beiyan glanced at the person who was eating rabbit meat crazily. Even though he was a game character, he was also expressing his joy vividly. He flipped his bony palm and an oval egg appeared in his palm. "Do you want to eat it?"
…
"In a peaceful and prosperous era, as a constable, one naturally hopes to do his job well. No evildoer should be allowed to go unpunished! This is the dream of all of us constables." As for this egg, I still won't eat it. God knows what it is.
Wei Xicheng spoke with great righteousness, and when he was excited, he drew his sword from his waist, holding the rabbit meat skewered on branches in one hand and pointing the sword to the sky with the other hand, looking very majestic. Little did he know that the man next to him had a smile on his face, and the corners of his mouth could no longer be suppressed and pulled into a larger arc.
Even the game's servers ran a few points faster than usual. All game users felt that today's graphics were particularly smooth and the operation was particularly easy. They left messages to the company expressing their hope that this level of performance could be maintained every day in the future.
The technical guy who received praise from his boss and the public looked confused. They didn't do anything.
Wei Xicheng stood up, threw the branch aside, patted his robe, and wiped the oil on his hands on his robe, "Let's go!"
"Where are we going?" Yu Beiyan frowned and looked at the dirty robe of the person next to him. How come some of the bad habits from the previous world have not changed until now?
"Go after that robber, of course!"
"May I ask the constable's name?" Yu Beiyan moved his fingers, and Wei Xicheng's robe became brand new.
Wei Xicheng looked at the newly-refreshed robe and smiled with satisfaction, "I am Wei Xicheng."
"Wei?" Yu Beiyan nodded thoughtfully. This was not the first time he had heard this name. No matter what the reason was, no matter how the person's name changed, as long as he was still the same person, it was fine.
The two stayed together for five consecutive days. After learning from the last mission, Wei Xicheng no longer ordered Yu Beiyan to do things for him. He only asked Yu Beiyan to leave at about the same time of the day and came back to look for him the next day. Together, they went to look for the wandering bandit who could no longer exist.
Five days later, Yu Beiyan finished announcing another hidden task and broadcast it to the world again. Then the news of opening the next hidden task completely made the entire server boil.
Hidden tasks can be connected? There is no end? The rewards are so generous that many people complained to the company, but the company's people are helpless. When they designed the game, they increased the intelligence and randomness of the game, and various possible random combinations formed everyone's task system. In this case, the company's people can only give an explanation of "lucky luck".
When the technician searched Yu Beiyan's game files but found nothing, he thought someone had encrypted them. After submitting a report, the matter was forgotten. People are forgetful, and two or three days after the incident, everyone accepted the explanation given by the game company and admitted that Yu Beiyan was the most European player in the server.
Wei Xicheng was confused about this. Was it because of his intervention that the game had deviated?
Wei Xicheng was no longer careful with Yu Beiyan. He had a feeling that even if this hidden mission was over, there would be another hidden mission to tie the two together. Wei Xicheng had no idea how this situation would come about.
"Detective Wei, we've been chasing for three days, but still no one is there."
"No mistake, it's right here."
"You've said this countless times." Yu Beiyan covered his lips and coughed lightly, letting Wei Xicheng walk quickly in front of him, heading towards the Sunset Peak with the "first beautiful view". It was getting dark, and climbing to the top of the peak at this time was just right to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Sunset Peak.
When the two reached the top, they saw that it was already full of people, almost all of them were in pairs, and some people would fight with others for a good position. The combination of Wei Xicheng and Yu Beiyan attracted everyone's attention, and someone immediately posted a thread on the forum while following the game interface, "The story of the European emperor and his exclusive NPC."
The floors were getting higher and higher, but Wei Xicheng was unaware of this. Yu Beiyan was very satisfied with the word "exclusive". The sunset glow at Sunset Peak was a little more gorgeous than usual.
When they arrived late, there was no place with a good view. Yu Beiyan lifted Wei Xicheng's arm and climbed up the tower above everyone's head. Standing on the top of the tower, overlooking the panoramic view of Sunset Peak, they felt quite proud of "seeing all the mountains from a distance".
The admiring gazes of the crowd gradually disappeared in the beautiful scenery. Wei Xicheng looked at the setting sun in the sky and couldn't help but sigh. After experiencing countless worlds, he never thought that there would be a day when he could watch the sunset with someone so calmly.
"There are no robbers here."
“…”
"let's go."
“……”Calm down, sister!
Wei Xicheng took two deep breaths. It didn’t matter. He knew Yu Beiyan’s character very well. He was used to it. Yes, he was not angry.
"Xicheng, does it look good?" Yu Beiyan curled the corners of his lips when he saw that the person who was daydreaming just now focused his attention on him again.
"What did you call me just now?" This tone is definitely not the tone to talk to an NPC! Wei Xicheng and Yu Beiyan have been together for several days, and he has long been accustomed to his businesslike tone. His sudden change at this moment made Wei Xicheng a little excited.
"Xicheng." Yu Beiyan looked at him steadily. The last ray of light from the setting sun made his profile look very soft, gentle and affectionate.
His voice was so soft that it almost disappeared in the gentle and warm evening breeze. "Maybe I should call you Shu Yang?"
"Do you remember what happened before?" Wei Xicheng's eyes were full of light. He felt like he was about to become the most annoying crybaby. It must be because the NPCs in this game were too emotional, so he couldn't control his emotional fluctuations.
"I remember you." Yu Beiyan smiled. The sky darkened and the setting sun completely fell below the horizon. A few stars in the sky twinkled. The bright moonlight illuminated the surrounding scenery clearly. It was not as warm as in the evening, but brought a kind of cool charm.
Wei Xicheng stared blankly at Yu Beiyan's profile. His face had now turned into Yu Beiyan's face in the previous world. He stared for a while, then turned around and found that in the distant town, every household had already turned on the lights, which was warm and natural.
This is not reality, but it makes people feel the true feelings in their hearts at this moment.
"I'm an NPC." Both of them were very clear about the unspoken meaning. An NPC in a game is just a piece of data and cannot really exist in human society. It can only be felt in this virtual network.
"Um."
After a long silence, she held Wei Xicheng in her arms with both arms, and could even feel the warmth from the man's body.
"This world is suitable for us. We all live in endless illusions, experience countless stories that do not belong to us, and finally choose an ending that we cannot choose."
The arms around him tightened, and Wei Xicheng heard the man sigh softly in his ear, and then said: "In a world like this, the only thing we can have is each other. Only you can make me remember who I was before."
These words were vague, but Wei Xicheng could vaguely understand their meaning. He looked at Yu Beiyan in disbelief, and received a reassuring smile in return.
Wei Xicheng felt a heat on his forehead.
"Xi Cheng, you are not the only one chosen by the system."
