At the end of the day, by summoning players to become gods

"Colonel, Colonel?!"

The players gasped and stood up together.

They never imagined that the imperial colonel with great military achievements and reputation was standing in front of them at this moment, talking to them.

"You, why are you here?"

Jiang Feng raised his hand to stop them trying to salute stiffly, then his expression softened, and he slightly curled his lips towards them: "First of all, I want to apologize to you, I have known the weirdness of this game for a long time, so , have been following your movements."

"I know the purpose of your gathering, and I also know your mood at the moment." He looked around the shocked faces of the players and said slowly, "So I came here to tell the truth and answer your doubts .”

"The truth of all this..." The players were taken aback, "So the empire already knows all this?"

"No, I'm just representing myself here. In fact, I haven't reported it to the emperor, because it's really weird." The colonel shook his head, "And before that, I need to meet with you, after all you guys That's what matters."

Seeing everyone standing there stiffly, looking like they wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask, the colonel smiled: "Why don't you sit down and listen to a story first, and we'll talk about everything after I finish telling the story."

The players nodded quickly, sat down on the ground and formed a circle, and the colonel came to the most central open space carelessly and sat down casually.

The players were flattered by this natural appearance. After all, the colonel on TV always wears a serious military uniform, standing upright, with an angry face. In short, he has a sense of distance and temperament.

But now, he has integrated into the players like this, feeling like he was pulled from the cloud to the ground all of a sudden.

It also made the players secretly relax their tight nerves.

Seemingly understanding their expressions, the colonel smiled: "Surprised?"

"Actually, I am a player just like you. According to your words, we are all brothers and we don't need to see outsiders."

"what--?!"

Qian Duoduo was the first to gasp, almost in surprise.

Colonel is also a player?

After being in the game for so long, there is such a big colonel lurking beside them, but they don't know anything? ?

Is he a fool? ?

Wait, could it be that he once hooked up with the Colonel? ?

God what has he done!

The faces of the other players also changed drastically, and they began to secretly think about the suspicious aspects of the familiar players, and some even tried hard to recall whether they had done anything illegal in the game, they didn't want to be arrested.

The colonel allowed them to guess wildly with their eyes moving randomly, but he stopped talking about this topic:

"In order to explore the secrets of the "Doomsday Survival" game, my subordinates and I sneaked into the game as players. Not long ago, we have searched almost all the information!"

"You guessed right, this 'game' has a 90% probability of being our future projection!"

"Or, we traveled through time and space because of some kind of power, and arrived in the future 300 years later! But we mistakenly thought it was a game!"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere among the players quickly sank.

It was as if another sword had been pierced into their battered hearts, and no one wanted to accept such a terrifying fact.

But the colonel's words were like needle pricks, prying open their hard protective shells, stinging their soft hearts densely.

"Our world is about to experience a strange virus outbreak. The cause of this virus is unknown. It is called the X virus by scientists. People infected with the virus will rapidly aggravate their illness in stages, and eventually die and mutate into irrational zombies."

"Zombies quickly swept the empire, because the royal family did not pay attention to the virus outbreak, so in just a few days, millions of people died one after another."

"They quickly infected batch after batch of people, and by the time the empire reacted, it had completely fallen."

Speaking of this, the colonel paused, his brows and eyes stained with a trace of indelible guilt.

Thinking that the emperor failed to pay attention to the virus, and thinking that they had neglected to judge the virus, his heart sank slowly, and he could hardly breathe. It can be said that the fall of the empire has an indistinguishable relationship with them !

After taking a deep breath, under casually worried eyes, the colonel continued to speak: "In order to protect His Majesty the Emperor, the guards led the Emperor to hide in a temporary shelter built underground, but the outside has already fallen, and the Emperor can only Staying in the refuge has nowhere to escape, so I finally... fell here."

Blank eyes lit up: "This is the truth about the emperor's tomb we saw?!"

"That's right." The colonel nodded, "I saw these in the emperor's notebook."

With that said, he turned on the optical computer and showed the screenshots for everyone to watch.

Shura was the first to read it, and he suddenly realized, but at the same time, he was puzzled: "But in this room, we didn't find the notebook at that time."

Blank nodded. At that time, he almost turned the room upside down in order not to miss any clues, but he didn't see this notebook at all.

"Maybe it was taken away in advance." Bai Ye's smiling face appeared in his mind. The colonel didn't want the players to give the players any extra information before he was sure of the facts, so he simply explained the past, "Although the diary only records here, but We reasonably guess that in this desperation, someone stepped forward to contend with the zombies, and finally established a shelter to ensure everyone's safety."

Qian Duoduo swallowed his saliva, and became nervous when he thought of that scene: "There are still people who can stand up bravely to fight against the zombies, and they even succeeded. Even you, the colonel,...uh, anyway, you are very strong."

He almost said the offensive words and subconsciously covered his mouth, but instead of blaming him, the colonel nodded in agreement.

"It's hard for ordinary people to build shelters."

"That's why I guess." His brows and eyes sharpened suddenly, "Someone has awakened the ability!"

The spirits of the players suddenly shook.

The colonel spoke eloquently: "At a critical moment, I awakened my supernatural power, and used my supernatural power to kill zombies, protect hundreds of thousands of people, and successfully build a shelter."

"That's why you can see the world full of supernatural beings!"

Reasonable!Very reasonable!

The player thinks carefully, and feels more and more that this is the truth!

"...is it really the future?"

"The future turns out to be the end of the world, ah..."

But after awakening, waiting for them is panic and despair.

Even bigger than the mood swing just now.

"Wait, since the colonel already knows the future in advance, as long as the defense is strengthened and careful supervision, the virus will not break out!" Some players' eyes lit up, and they quickly brought it up.

Hearing this, the other players also immediately felt the joy of being saved from a desperate situation, and looked at the colonel with sparkling eyes.

They knew that standing in front of them was the most secure man in the empire.

He is the sharp blade of the empire, he can cut off all dangers and protect the people.

But the colonel sat there with a sullen face all the time, and finally shook his head silently: "I'm sorry. Although I really want to say that I will leave this matter to us, don't worry... But in fact, the scope of the empire is too broad , No one knows when the virus will come, it may be a day, or a year, and the early symptoms are exactly the same as ordinary fever, so it is unrealistic to judge immediately."

"Coupled with the rapidity of the infection, many people may have been infected by the time we discovered it."

The eyes of the players went dark, and they felt an unprecedented darkness: "Can't even you, Colonel!"

Apart from the colonel, they had no one to rely on.

"Compared to the people to protect, the number of our soldiers is too small, and our strength is too limited."

sighed the colonel, shattering the last of their illusions.

……how come! !

Seeing the players trembling, kneeling and kneeling on the ground, unable to cheer up, the colonel looked around, narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly changed the subject: "—but this does not mean that our There is no possibility for the future."

"There is still a group of powerful forces. If we can use it well, it will become the hope of our entire empire!"

The players were surprised, and they were really overjoyed. They cast their eyes one after another: "What power is it?"

The colonel stared at them, and suddenly smiled: "That's you."

"You players are the future hope of the empire."

……Varied?

???

The player was stunned, completely unaware of what the colonel was talking about.

Even Blank was stunned in place, with an unbelievable expression on his face.

They are ordinary game lovers, simple students or just graduated and have not stepped into the society, what can they do?

Before they could ask questions, the colonel turned on the optical brain again, and put two medical examination reports on it:

"I haven't told you all this time, there is another important secret in you!"

"But now, it's time for you to know!"

The players looked at the medical examination report, and were slightly taken aback, only to see that it turned out to be the result of the imperial military report, and the name of the medical examiner was—just play around.

Wanwan shrugged his shoulders casually, with a helpless expression on his face, he knew that his cousin would disclose his data.

The second physical examination is nothing, it turns out that this one... can be regarded as a public execution.

I saw on the first physical examination report, all the physical examination results for casual play were the worst D, and the only mental strength reached C, which made some players couldn't help laughing out loud. But it's the first time I've seen such a bad thing.

But when the eyes moved to the second medical report, the players couldn't laugh for a moment, and the muscles on their faces stiffened strangely.

what did they see!

In just half a year, the results of casual play's physical examination quickly jumped from D to A, and even the mental strength broke through the legendary S rank!

The empire has never had such an outrageous medical report from the beginning to the present. If it weren't for the official badge printed on it, the players almost thought that the dignified colonel would deceive them like children again!

"What the hell is this?!" Blank couldn't restrain his astonishment, and kept looking at it casually.

This report was more shocking and unbelievable than all the truths he had accepted so far.

Casually playing in the eyes of his cousin, he stood up helplessly, stretched his ankles, and directly performed what is called flying over the walls in the room.

His figure moved lightly on the wall, and he could even point to his toes, jumping to the corridor on the second floor like a light work.

The players' jaws almost dropped to the ground due to this gaudy show off, they could only stare blankly at casually playing a backflip as it landed on the ground smoothly, and nodded towards them.

"That's right, as you can see, my physical fitness has improved in an all-round way now, and such actions are just trivial."

"All of this is the impact on me after playing the game."

"You mean..." Mei was almost scared to death when he saw it. He covered his beating heart and asked softly in disbelief, "All our players who entered the game have improved their physical fitness?"

"You can think about it, whether your body has changed." The colonel added, "For example, the cure of illness, the improvement of physical strength."

In this way, the players recalled it before reacting:

"Speaking of which, I felt very relaxed when I transported the robot to be repaired two days ago!"

"I haven't been sick at all in the past few months. You know, I have to see a doctor in this season in previous years!"

"I just said that my hair has grown back, and the place that was supposed to be bald is no longer bald haha!"

At this moment, all players were pleasantly surprised and excited, and even forgot their fear of the future.

Some players wished they could perform Wuhen Treading Snow on the spot, but unfortunately, he fell down heavily just after jumping less than half a meter away. There was no way he could just play casually.

The player looked at Casual Wanwan strangely, not understanding that they are also players, why Casual Wanwan can jump so easily.

"These are all hidden talents." Casually Wanwan gave them a speechless look, "It takes training to achieve. Those of you who have not been trained are physically stronger than ordinary people. Don't think too much."

"Harm!" The players were immediately disappointed.

However, some people's brains are very prominent. He almost immediately contacted the supernatural beings in the game, and couldn't help asking: "When our quality reaches double S, will we awaken supernatural powers! "

As soon as these words came out, all the players were surprised and delighted, whether it was the appearance of supernatural powers or their ability to possess in-game skills, they all made their hearts inflated.

No one didn't expect to become a strong man with power and a brave man surrounded by everyone when they were young, but now, their dreams seem to be coming true.

Flying over the walls and walls of the empire with supernatural powers, accepting the worship of everyone, hey, how happy that would be!

Players are going to wake up from their dreams.

However, a bucket of cold water was poured on them mercilessly.

—— "Have you forgotten that our future is doomsday! Even if you have supernatural powers, you are still attacking people who have turned into zombies. Can you really attack them?!"

Little Nai Gao lowered her head, grabbed her hair with both hands, and her face was full of despair: "Maybe they are your relatives, do we have supernatural powers just to kill them?!"

"..."

In an instant, everyone calmed down.

They suddenly realized that yes, they wanted to dream of a savior, but the price of the dream was their relatives and friends.

Well, they would rather have nothing than face such a sad future!

Seeing the players listlessly sitting back on the ground one by one, and returning to their original state of mind, the colonel sighed helplessly and tapped the ground with his knuckles.

"Everyone, the future is inevitable. Even if you do nothing, you will not stop the pace of destruction. Are you really planning to watch everything?"

"Is it really good to do nothing and just watch the end come with your own eyes?"

Facing his eloquent questions, the players were speechless and unable to refute.

But Little Nai Gao suddenly shouted: "Then what can we do? Do you want us to attack our relatives? I can't do it! I can't do it at all!"

His sad and tearful appearance was reflected in the colonel's eyes, the colonel looked at him for a while, and then suddenly said: "You saw your father's zombie, right?"

The little milk cake's body trembled suddenly.

"I want to ask you, in your eyes, what kind of person is your father?"

"He..." Little Nai Gao's voice became more and more trembling, "He is a brave man, he likes to do what is right, he is warm-hearted, and no matter how much he suffers, he will always show a sunny smile..."

"I have sincere admiration for your father." The colonel nodded, but suddenly said, "Is the father who turned into a zombie still like this?"

The little milk cake suddenly froze in place.

"After becoming a zombie, his hands are no longer the hands that protect others, but hands that are stained with the blood of innocent people. Perhaps, the people he wants to protect, the people he risked his life to protect, will die tragically because of him. hands. Is this really what your father wants to see?"

The colonel persuaded earnestly: "Think about it differently. If you become a zombie and face an irrational self who can only kill people, what do you want your friends to do?"

In the silence, no one could answer the question.

Only Blank thought about it calmly, and finally said: "I will hope they kill me and give me a relief."

"That's right." The colonel looked into Blank's eyes with deep praise. Only this player stepped out of the fear in his heart and bravely faced the future, "If you see my zombies. I want to ask you, kill killed him."

"At the moment of my death, at the moment when my saber is slashed at people, the existence of zombies is tarnishing my pride and discrediting my glory, so I can't bear it, so I am willing, please kill him, Give me peace of mind."

"Then let me ask you again now, can you understand my mood now? Can you fulfill my wish?"

Facing the Colonel's sincere eyes, the players looked at each other and clasped their hands tightly.

But I have to say that what the colonel said is indeed correct. If they become zombies, they will ask their relatives to kill them, because the more painful thing than their death is to use their bodies to hurt their relatives.

Even the aggressive little milk cake remained silent for a long time without making a sound again.

The colonel knew very well that this was a sign that the players had listened to his words. He had a gratified smile on his face and said to the players again: "The future you see in the game is not the real future, at least in the present, the future is in your hands In our own hands!"

"As long as we gather enough strength, as long as everyone here can make their own efforts, I believe that no matter what kind of predicament it is, we can solve it."

"So here, I beg you on behalf of the empire."

The colonel stood up from the ground with a serious face, pursing the line of his lips into a straight line.

Then he raised his right hand, put his heels together, and performed a standard military salute.

"For the sake of the empire, for the people, and for the relatives and friends around you, please lend us your strength!"

"Each of you is an indispensable force!"

"Every one of you is the hope of the empire's future!"

"In order not to become a doomsday tomorrow, in order not to usher in a future full of despair, please join us and fight side by side together!"

The players were stunned by his standard salute.

They had watched the colonel's military salute many times on TV, but it was basically a military salute to Emperor Raphael III, because the colonel's meritorious deeds were enough for him not to bow down to the nobles, because the colonel's status was enough for him to look down on anyone.

But now, he showed great respect and desire to a group of fresh graduates!

What a gesture of sincerity and warmth!

Moreover, the words he said also caused huge waves in the hearts of the players.

They are the hope of the empire...

They are the guardians of the people...

The whole empire needs them...

An indescribable sense of responsibility is carried on their backs. While feeling heavy, it also strangely makes the players' blood boil.

Each of them was full of fighting spirit, each with their heads held high, as if they were going to show all their courage and strength, they looked at the Colonel in the eye.

Then, as Blank took the first step, he gave a military salute: "For the empire!"

The players in the rear also looked resolute and joined him: "For the empire!"

Rows of tall and firm figures saluting the military are a symbol of their courage!

At this moment, although the players have different personalities, family backgrounds, and identities, they are all closely linked by the word empire. Their goals are the same, and their wishes are the same:

For a hopeful tomorrow, they must fight against despair!

For the eternal empire!

After mobilizing the players' emotions, the colonel nodded in satisfaction, and then continued to explain the follow-up plan to the players.

First of all, we must continue to expand the number of combatants. In addition to the more than 50 players present, the remaining players must all gather together and accept the truth of the game little by little.

Afterwards, all players who are willing to participate in the battle must spare three hours a day for militarized training in reality, mainly with the goal of developing their potential.

The physical potential of the players is quite high now, but they lack systematic training. The colonel believes that it only takes a week for the players to reach the level of casual play.

Although the game time has been reduced, the players are very excited to accept the training requirements when they think that they can fly over the wall in reality.

To the colonel's relief, none of the players participating in the meeting announced their withdrawal from the battle. Even Xiao Nai Gao and others who were quite resistant to zombies accepted the training plan in silence.

The colonel has reason to believe that as long as it continues, one day, Nai Gao and the others will let go of their grudges and fight side by side with the players.

Things seem to be going well, and everyone is throwing themselves into the fight against the future.

The master players headed by Blank also began to invite other players to the party, and told all about the game as the future.

At the beginning, Blank would patiently answer the words of the players who didn't understand the truth, but their questions were too many and too repetitive. After saying it a few times, Blank was almost tormented crazy.

"What? The game is not the game but the future? Our future is the end?? Your brains are not cramping, aren't these just the Easter eggs of the game? You also believe that the Easter eggs are true? This is not scientific at all, I don't believe it!"

The blank lips are almost worn out, and coupled with the screenshots of various evidences, the player is still dubious in the end and dare not make a conclusion.

In the end, Blank wiped his face in pain, and made a ppt urgently one night, and after the next batch of players invited over, he was the first to throw out a sentence:

"In fact, games are not games, games are the future of our world, and this is the image of our future!"

The players who were invited were stunned, and just about to speak, they heard him say again quickly: "Yes, you heard me right, it is indeed the future, our future is the end, don't worry, my mind and spirit are normal, I have a physical examination The report testifies, and the Colonel of the Empire can also testify, this is not a game egg, it cannot be explained by science, whether you believe it or not, this is the truth."

"...?"

The player was almost stunned by this series of skillful replies: "Wait..."

"Shh, don't talk, here is the ppt as evidence, read it quietly first."

A blank sentence blocked the topic again, and he played the slideshow himself.

All the evidence is arranged in sequence, basically blocking the mouths of all players.

Because when the player wanted to question this question, the next ppt seemed to be able to see through his doubts, and explained the loophole as soon as he appeared.

After watching a slideshow, the players just couldn't say a word, and sat there in a daze.

"Understood, whether you believe it or not now, in short, go to the colonel on the 112th Street of the Empire to report on the weekend night. If you don't go, the colonel will personally invite you at your door, so pay attention. There, the colonel will personally explain the next step battle plan, and then you decide whether to participate or not.”

Blank typed twice on the optical brain, without raising his eyes the whole time: "The specific information has been sent to you, just don't forget it, you can go now, I have to welcome the next batch of players."

……

In this way, batch after batch of players came in suspiciously, and batch after batch of silent players walked out like dumb.

After telling everyone all the time, Blank suddenly relaxed his nerves, heaved a sigh of relief, and a happy smile appeared on his lips.

Huh... finally liberated!

He never wants to accept such a task again!

And the task of convincing other players was given to them, the great gods, and the other players were frantically leveling in the game.

They had already anticipated the scene of fighting zombies in reality, so they accumulated more experience now so that they would not be defeated in reality.

After all, in reality, they have no means of defense against blood recovery. As long as they are caught by zombies, they may be infected and die.

The players trembled uncontrollably at the thought that they would also become blackened and irrational zombies.

They are afraid of that future, but if they do retreat, what about their families, what about their country?

This is something that scares them more than their death.

So no matter how difficult it is, as long as they think of the people behind them to protect, they will be full of courage and pick up the sword in their hands!

Now upgrade as much as possible and exercise movements, all for the expected tomorrow!

Ordinary players can still muster up the courage to fight against zombies, but what about those players who saw their relatives become zombies with their own eyes?

——After constant psychological struggle, Nai Gao returned to his hometown.

Standing in that familiar forest, he could still recall the heartache and despair at that time.

I thought I couldn't bear that scene anymore and couldn't even log in to the game, but after what the colonel said, he miraculously appeared here again, watching the zombies running not far away.

It's just that his arms are trembling, and his eyes are full of fear.

Don't worry about him, the companions who came with him frowned, seeing his appearance, they couldn't help but said: "Otherwise, let us come."

"……Do not."

Despite her pale face, Nai Gao still smiled at them.

"It can only be done by me."

Escaping may be very simple. He has wanted to escape many times, and the farther he escapes, the better.

But what about after escaping?

He can't change anything, he can't get anything.

So the moment the colonel woke him up, Little Nai Gao made a decision:

——He who escaped could not protect anything.

Happiness will just slip through his fingertips.

Therefore, he must face it bravely.

He tightly clenched the long sword in his hand, and took a deep breath from his mouth.

Among a group of rushing zombies, he saw the only one with a severed arm in the group of zombies at a glance, and his eyes couldn't help but moisten.

But he gritted his teeth and swallowed the sadness and pain.

He knew that this moment was the moment for him to make a decision.

This moment is the moment of his transformation!

"...a sad phantom lingering in the future."

His lips trembled twice, and he spoke softly:

"You are the fear in my heart, you are the pain in my heart."

"You are a phantom, but you are also real."

"Your existence once made me escape, and once made me despair, but I understand... Only by defeating you can I truly have the courage to protect."

The five fingers holding the hilt of the sword were tightly contracted, and the eyes of the little milk cake became sharper little by little.

Although there is still water in it, his voice has become extremely firm.

"In order not to step into a tragic tomorrow."

"In order not to fall into a hopeless future."

"I want to defeat you and protect my current family."

"so--"

The snow-white blade refracted cold light in the air, and the little Nai Gao slammed her backhand, and a shadow of the light blade quickly flashed in her eyes.

In an instant, the pink crystals were shattered and scattered on the ground.

The strength of holding the sword was so strong that the fingertips turned white, and finally slowly fell to the ground.

The little milk cake stood quietly on the spot, looking down at the dissipated crystal nuclei on the ground, and the corners of her lips curled up in a sad arc.

He bent down, picked up the fragments of the crystal nucleus, and placed them on his chest regardless of the pollution on them.

Afterwards, she slowly closed her eyes, and attached her lips to the crystal nucleus devoutly.

"I promise you, I will protect the past and never repeat the mistakes of the future."

The wind suddenly picked up, blowing away the cracked crystal nuclei in his palm.

Fragments of red awns float in the air, like petals dancing in the sky, rising in the wind, forming the most beautiful scenery in spring.

It also seems that in the heart of the little milk cake, a red lotus that never fades has bloomed.

Red Lotus gave him courage and strength, and took away the last trace of cowardice and anxiety.

Little Nai Gao watched this scene tenderly, and habitually tapped her chest twice:

"May you be blessed with light."

"May you find true liberation."

"Please...rest in peace."
