Wen Wei raised his face slightly and continued: "I have props that can temporarily protect myself."
"I won't hold you back."
Wen Qing thought for a moment and said, "Let's look for seeds together. I'll consider it as the rent for my stay at your place for the next few days."
Bai Tong lowered his head. With his excellent night vision, he could clearly see Wen Wei's bright eyes.
Unlike when he was in seminary, there was no panic or fear in his eyes, but only determination.
Bai Tong chuckled, "Sorry."
"I was wrong."
He seemed to still be immersed in the past, the first time he saw the panicked Wen Qing in the human world, the first time he went through a copy with Wen Qing and wanted to protect him.
Bai Tong raised his hand and ruffled Wen Qing's hair, whispering, "I don't think you'll be a drag."
"I just want you to be somewhere safe."
Wen Qing blinked, a little confused.
"Because I..." Bai Tong paused, glanced at Ye Ye beside him, and smiled, "Nothing, let's go."
Wen Qing didn't think much and followed Bai Tong out.
Ye Ye walked at the end, looked at the backs of the two people walking side by side, and lowered his eyes.
He knew what Bai Tong wanted to say just now, because Bai Tong liked Wen Qing, he wanted Wen Qing to stay in a safe place.
Walking out of the building, the outside is actually clearer than the inside because of the dim light of the panels and the colossus in the sky.
This street was almost deserted and very quiet, but the noises on other streets were very noisy, with voices and sounds of fighting faintly heard.
Wen Qing subconsciously put on a mask, fearing that it would be bad if he met Zhou Zhou, Oz and the others.
Bai Tong looked around and chose a secluded path.
"This way."
As I walked into a small path, a strong smell of blood hit me in the face.
Wen Qing paused and saw a person lying on the grass.
No, to be precise, it's a corpse.
The blood dyed the green grass red.
Wen Qing's expression changed slightly and he quickened his pace.
Bai Tong glanced at the corpse and frowned slightly: "Recently collected information shows that the copies that this god is responsible for are almost all related to the natural environment."
"Moreover, his dungeons are generally not very dangerous. Even in monster-level or god-level dungeons, players will hardly die."
Wen Qing was stunned for a moment, then said softly, "He is the god who protects the players and is on the side of humans."
"But now..."
“Ahhhh————” a player’s scream pierced the night sky.
Wen Qing pursed her lips and looked at the virtual panel in the air: "A lot of players died again."
It's not difficult to find the seeds for the game.
The difficult part is to protect the seeds in your hand, and the difficult part is to survive from other players.
The first day of the game was basically letting players kill each other.
Wen Qing's eyelashes trembled. He could almost imagine that some bad players would take this opportunity to slaughter other players, maliciously collect seeds, and eliminate others.
This doesn't seem like Sikong's game.
But the tone used when announcing the game just now was not like the tone used by Sikong when he spoke on the other side.
It’s obviously Sikong.
Wen Qing couldn't figure it out and turned his head to look at Bai Tong.
Bai Tong continued, "This game is not difficult, but it is very dangerous."
“He’s changed.”
Wen Qing was stunned. Change...
The key that just disappeared...
Bai Tong said slowly: "If I'm not mistaken, they and the other side——"
Wen Qing whispered, "Has it merged?"
Bai Tong responded.
Wen Qing was stunned for a moment, and now he understood why Sikong and Yu Xing in the castle were so reluctant to leave.
After they leave, they are no longer separate individuals.
"Seeds." Ye Ye suddenly spoke.
Wen Qing came back to his senses and looked in the direction of Ye Ye's finger.
At the end of the road, I saw a window on the third floor of an apartment building emitting a faint yellow light.
There are seeds on the third floor.
Bai Tong: "Let's go."
When they reached the first floor of the apartment building, the three of them stopped.
This is an apartment operated by the system, not a hotel. The door is closed and only apartment residents can enter.
Bai Tong walked to the panel embedded in the wall, raised his hand and nodded, frowned and said: "Registration of new residents is not allowed now."
Ye Ye walked to the automatic door and tried to kick the glass.
The glass door didn't move.
He frowned and said, "Or else smash it."
Bai Tong shook his head: "It would make too much noise if we smash it, maybe someone else will come over."
He tried to enter the password.
“Ding Di——”
"Wrong password, please re-enter."
Ye Ye frowned, took two steps back, stood on the side of the road and looked up at the second floor: "I'll climb up and take a look."
Wen Qing walked to the combination lock and took out the master key from his pocket.
He looked down at the old-fashioned key, then glanced at the system's advanced combination lock.
Bai Tong glanced at the object in his palm and asked in a low voice: "What key is this?"
Wen Qing did not hide anything and told the truth: "It's a prop."
"It is said to be a master key that can open all doors."
Hearing this, Bai Tong took the master key and tried to put it in front of the combination lock: "Can you sense it?"
The combination lock does not respond.
Wen Qing was silent for a moment, then whispered, "This tool is said to be able to open any door."
"Do I need to poke a password?"
Bai Tong did as he was told and punched in a string of numbers.
“Ding Di——”
"Wrong password, please re-enter."
Wen Qing was about to ask what was wrong with the system when Bai Tong handed the master key back to him.
"There's no problem with the props, it might be the user's problem," said Bai Tong.
Wen Qing walked forward and tried to put the key in front of the combination lock.
Just as I was about to use the key to randomly punch in a few numbers, as soon as I held the key, I heard a ding-dong sound and the door opened.
Wen Qing was slightly startled, and whispered to Bai Tong: "This prop doesn't say that only I can use it."
Bai Tong smiled and said, "I'm just guessing."
"Go up quickly."
The apartment elevator was also out of service, so the three of them walked towards the corridor to the side.
The corridor door was closed, and Wen Qing raised his hand and pushed the door open.
With a "click", a flash of yellow light fell straight into his palm.
Wen Qing was stunned and looked down at the thing in his palm.
After touching his skin, the yellow light gradually disappeared, revealing its true appearance.
An almond-sized, black one.
Wen Qing was a little confused: "Is this a seed?"
Bai Tong responded, "Yes."
But there was clearly no light coming through the crack in the door just now.
The seed seemed to appear suddenly after Wen Qing opened the door.
He narrowed his eyes, remembering the reminder.
【The seeds are randomly distributed everywhere in the world. 】
Is this what you mean?
Ye Ye glanced at the seed in Wen Qing's palm and whispered, "This is not the one we just saw."
Wen Qing blinked and handed the seed to Bai Tong: "Put it there."
“You have room.”
Bai Tong did not refuse: "Okay."
Wen Qing didn't hear any sound when he went up to the second floor. The apartment building was extremely quiet, as if no one lived there.
Listening to the sound of her own footsteps, she lowered her voice and asked, "Does anyone live here?"
"Yes, very little," Bai Tong explained, "Apartment accommodation is more expensive than a hotel."
"More players will choose to stay in hotels and hostels rather than apartments."
Wen Qing nodded and followed the two of them up to the third floor.
The yellow light they had just seen was in the south, and the light was dim, so they were not sure which room it was in.
Bai Tong glanced at the house number, recalled the direction he had just seen, and said to Wen Qing: "It should be between 0308 and 0313."
"Wen Qing, you open the door. Ye Ye and I will be in charge of finding it."
"Okay." Wen Qing took the master key and opened the doors one by one.
He opened the door very quickly, and before Bai Tong and Ye Ye had finished searching the first room, he had already opened the last room.
The moment he pushed the door open, he was pressed against it and a big hand covered his mouth.
"Hmm——" Wen Qing just raised his hand and prepared to use the props.
The next second, a familiar voice rang in my ears: "It's me, Meng Meng."
Wen breathed a sigh of relief and pushed Jiang Yan's arm, signaling him to let go.
Jiang Yan slowly put down his hand and closed the door.
With a click, the sound of the door closing was particularly clear in the silent night.
Wen Qing was about to speak when hurried footsteps sounded outside the door, followed by Bai Tong's voice: "Wen Qing?"
Wen Qing pushed Jiang Yan away, let him stand behind the door, turned around to open the door, and said to Bai Tong sideways: "It's okay, I accidentally closed the door."
Bai Tong breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm glad you're okay."
Wen Qing said, "I'll look for it from this room."
"Okay," Bai Tong nodded without any doubt, and said, "Don't close the door, just in case."
Wen Qing hummed.
Suddenly, someone gently touched the palm of his hand that was holding the door.
Wen Qing's eyelashes trembled, and he folded his palms and said to Bai Tong: "Let's find it quickly."
Bai Tong responded and was about to turn around and leave when Ye Ye hurried over and asked, "What's wrong?"
Wen Qing quickly said, “It’s okay, the window is not closed here, there is wind, and the door will close as soon as it is opened.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Wen Qing's fingers were blown again, causing a tingling sensation.
He turned his head and glared at Jiang Yan.
Jiang Yan leaned against the wall, looking at him with a smile.
Ye Ye walked to the door, looked inside, and saw the open window of the living room. He breathed a sigh of relief: "I'll go with you."
Wen Qing's eyelids jumped, and he immediately said, "No need."
"We'll each have a room, start looking quickly."
“Don’t waste time,” he urged.
Ye Ye frowned slightly and looked at him suspiciously.
Bai Tong half closed his eyes and said, "Let's go, Ye Ye."
Ye Ye turned his head to look at him.
Bai Tong repeated, "Let's go."
Ye Ye opened his mouth, glanced at Wen Qing's expression, and uttered one word: "Yeah."
Watching the two people walk away, Wen Qing breathed a sigh of relief.
He turned his head and wanted to talk to Jiang Yan, but Jiang Yan suddenly came in front of him and blinked: "Meng Meng, do we look like we are having an affair now?"
“It’s so exciting.”
"Since we want to pursue excitement, let's carry it through to the end."
