doomsday beta

"The number of Nian Beast spawns in this area seems to be getting less and less. Let's change places?"

Ark watched the player leave and did not follow.

He glanced back at the residential area.

The windows were still closed tightly and it was dark, as if no one was at home, but the curtains had been pulled back at some point, and shadowy figures stood in front of the window, silently looking at the back mountain.

Fang Zhou couldn't distinguish their expressions, but when his eyes inadvertently collided with one of the residents, he could feel a moment of icy coldness. He seemed to glared at him viciously and drew the curtains with a swipe.

Nian Beast, in folklore, is a fierce beast that slaughters the village.

The players helped to kill the Nian Beast, logically speaking, they were helping the residents, but these NPCs seemed to be full of hatred for the player's behavior!

Fang Zhou withdrew his gaze and walked across the bloody land.

The animal carcasses piled up in festive red crumbs all over the field has a sense of irony.

Are these monsters really just inexhaustible batch products?

Even, is this really just a fake creature created by a set of data?

Yes, it is impossible for a fictional creature like Nian Beast to appear in reality, and it is a fake even if you think about it.But Fang Zhou suddenly thought of the content of the fourth letter: [The dead souls who lost their homeland will be reborn in "Noah's Ark", and the human beings who are striving to be executioners know nothing about their evil deeds. 】

If what the letter says is true, then under this tip of the iceberg, the malice and teasing of human beings hidden in "Noah's Ark" has been clearly exposed.

Thinking about it, Fang Zhou walked away from the blood-stained mud with one foot deep and one shallow foot, passed the red-horned Nian beast, walked a few steps away, and then stopped.

look back.

I saw the Nian Beast, which was frozen like dead flesh and turned blue and purple in the cold wind.

The occlusion in front of him has been swept away by the wind, revealing the animal eyes that refuse to rest in peace.

The previous unwillingness and resentment have long since disappeared, like a different beast, with its eyes open without mechanism, gazing at the world indifferently.

The moonlight sprinkled on its face and its eyes, which seemed to be covered with a layer of metallic luster, giving it an extraordinarily rational and cold feeling.There is darkness in the huge empty eyes, like a vast and endless black hole. Seeing the depth, one feels its deterrence; because of the unknown, one feels fear.

And in that unexplorable black hole, there seems to be something extraordinarily vigorous and powerful.

Is it the desire to survive?

Fang Zhou didn't quite know what he was thinking at this moment, and he didn't intend to investigate why he did this?

When he recovered from being bullied by the cold wind, he had already walked back to Nian Beast and realized that he was taking off his cloak.

The cloak that can cover the Ark from head to toe is only enough to cover one leg of Nian Beast, but the Ark covers Nian Beast's head and covers its eyes. ——Before he came back to his senses, he subconsciously tried to close its eyes, but failed without exception.

Fang Zhou understood why it would rather die than close its eyes, but he hoped that the last image of the world in its eyes would be peace and silence, not the cruel side of blood flowing like a river.

"Mom, what is that uncle doing?"

A girl from a rich family with a calf ironed and a headband holding her mother's hand, looked at the ark strangely.

The mother covered the child's eyes, and seemed to feel that the bloody picture was too unfriendly to the child. She complained that the game company didn't know how to clean up these beast corpses automatically, and explained: "Uncle, the poor Nian beast died."

While frowning, he pulled the child away, "Tian Tian, ​​it's too messy here, let's set off firecrackers and watch Nian Beast play in another place, shall we?"

The girl nodded obediently, and walked a long way, twisting her neck and looking back, looking at Fang Zhou who had gotten up, "Mom, uncle even gave his clothes to Nian Beast, but he was a bit stupid. He only covered his head, not his body. But Uncle is so kind!"

"Yes, uncle is really kind." The mother nodded in agreement, and pulled the girl away quickly.

But looking at that indifferent look, I probably want to say from the bottom of my heart:

Is there something wrong with this person's brain, and he actually sympathizes with a bunch of data?

After Ark left the area behind the mountain, the blood stains on the soles of the shoes were automatically cleaned up, as if even those cruel scenes were destroyed from the player's memory, restored to a glamorous appearance, and entered the prosperous and lively business district.

Fang Zhou didn't know that after he left, the wolf-skin-covered Nian slowly blinked his eyes in the dark.The animal's eyes seemed to pass through an electric current, "Zi La", followed by trembling eyelashes, and gradually regained their spirits.

It is a kind of extreme arrogance that nothing in the world deserves to be seen.

Fleeting, fleeting.

It seemed that rationality retreated, and instinct prevailed again, and the unwillingness and resentment before death filled the beast's eyes again.

It shrugged its nose, smelling the strange human body odor in the cloak, showing a little confusion, but it was too late to think about it.

There was a sound approaching, and the laughing players suddenly raised their voices:

"Look, there's a fur coat! Could it be the dropped equipment?"

"If the equipment has been picked up long ago, are you still waiting for you to pick it up?"

"Who knows, maybe it's a delayed drop, and someone missed it! Let's go and have a look!"

The Nian beast shook its head, propped up its bruised and bruised body, picked up its fur, and staggered away, fleeing in embarrassment as the player suddenly accelerated its pursuit.

……

Fang Zhou passed the teahouse again, and the line was shortened by a large amount.

Ark, who was not yet sleepy, went to the end of the queue. From the gossip of the players, he learned that the daily-level "Wolf is Coming" mission is similar to a truth or dare game. One game per room, time limit 15 minutes, a cup of tea Kung Fu.

However, the first fifty free mission quotas have been used up, and now it takes labor to accept the mission.

"What labor?" A player in the team asked.

A player standing outside the queue, armed with a hat and scarf, immediately laughed bitterly: "...before, I was asked to clean up, wash pots and cups, and carry things. Heart! But isn’t there a Nian Beast event today? Let people collect the corpses! In the past, there were pools of blood and intestines, white brains like tofu brains, mixed with the excrement and urine of the Nian Beast, red and yellow , smelly and smelly, tsk! That taste is simply FUCK!!!”

"Ouch..." There was a female player in the team with a nauseous expression immediately, "Forget it, I'm dizzy, it's too embarrassing to collect the corpse! I'd better go first!"

"Can't afford it! I'm quitting too!"

"I'll forget it too, come back after the Nian Beast event is over!"

Many players agreed and scattered away.

After a while, the team lost a lot.

The fully armed player grinned, ran out of the team triumphantly, went to a hidden place at the corner of the street, took off his hat to reveal a red face, and said to a tall and handsome young man, "Boss, I'm smart. With just a few words, four fifths of the players will be deceived, we will go there now, and we will be able to pick up the mission in minutes!"

"Hi?"

"Boss? Boss?! BOSS?!"

"Talk! What are you looking at? Your soul is gone..."

The Red Devil followed the eyes of his boss, and there were only a few people left in the teahouse team, nothing unusual.

Then he turned to look at his teammates, "What's wrong with Noah?"

Leaning against the wall, Weiwei, who was standing coquettishly, looked away from her nails, pursed her red lips and nunuu towards the queue, "No, did you see that one? Hit that master to enter the queue, you The boss is no longer in the service area. Don’t even call him, you won’t respond even if you kick him.”

He Xifeng, who was next to him and his twin brother, patted each other's asses and played, nodded deeply, "It's a once-in-a-lifetime time! Time waits for no one! Don't miss it when you pass by! Feel free to use out the dissatisfaction you usually accumulate! Those who have revenge, those who have grudges Complain! If you miss this village, you will lose this store!"

"Gosh! What nonsense did you learn when you came to China?" Red Devil looked at the queue again, "Which one?"

The He family brothers raised their chins, "That's it!"

"Which one is that?! Can't you make it clearer?" The Red Devil kicked his foot violently. He wanted to kick the wall, but he accidentally missed his head and kicked the old thigh. The back of the young man's head was exceptionally indifferent and round, and he didn't even notice it from the corner of his eye.

Several teammates next to me made mouth-types at the same time: Right?

"FUCK! Really! Which goblin has such great magic power to fascinate the unfeminine Noah like this?" The red devil observed the queue again, mainly aiming at the new players after he passed.

There is one and only one target, a tall and slender young man standing at the end of the line like a stand out from the crowd.

Because of his thin body, it was like a bamboo pole standing in the fierce cold wind, making the thin pajamas sway.

"Ohno! You're talking about that silly B who still wears unlined clothing in cold weather—" Before the vowel was finished, the wind suddenly blew.

The Red Devil was caught off guard and fell to the ground. He raised his head in a daze, met the condescending face of the handsome young man, and pulled the old man. He looked like a lady whose nose was not his nose and his eyes were not his eyes. , you can’t speak with quality!”

red devils.

The Red Devil sat there with an innocent face.

Bathed in the unsurprised expressions of his teammates, he noticed Weiwei's cracked nails, the He family twins had gray marks on their buttocks, which looked like shoe prints, and Jay, who was in charge of IQ, had been silently serving as the background board for a long time.For a moment, the weak, pitiful and helpless Red Devil thought he had discovered something?

Weiwei, who seemed to have experienced the lesson of blood and tears, sighed, "...the only thing that can make the boss react now is that Mr. Unspeakable."

"So..." The red devil looked at the young man who had turned into an idiot again, and was about to ask whether he should do the task after all, when a flash of light came to his mind, he changed the subject and said, "I see that young gentleman is freezing in the cold wind. It's a bit pitiful, should we show our compatriotism and give clothes in the cold! For example, I think your coat, boss, is very suitable!"

Jiang Xun, who was peeping at the queue, paused for a moment, then slowly turned his head and fixed on the Red Devil, slowly.

The Red Devil wiped off his face with cold sweat, and carefully took the coat Jiang Xun took off, saying that he would definitely greet his compatriots in the country and ask if he had any other needs, when Jiang Xun quietly added: "Don't tell him too much. Chatty."

"Ah? Why?"

The Red Devil put away his clothes in a daze and walked towards the queue.

Just as I was about to pat the young man on the shoulder, I suddenly felt a thorn in my back. I realized it later, and I couldn't help but sigh!

I really didn't expect that the leader of a love insulator would be so possessive when encountering a relationship, and even eat this kind of jealousy! ! !It simply subverted its past image of being wise and mighty.

The Red Devil didn't want to admit it, he, who had always regarded the boss as a beacon of life, was a little disillusioned...
