"This is what I said in the book, things like 'superpowers' or 'supernatural powers' are double-edged swords. Whether it is strengthening muscles or strengthening the brain, improving computing power and releasing strong brain waves, a steady stream of brain waves is required. Energy support, the cells of superpowers who have been 'reborn' are vicious monsters, and without sufficient nutrition, they will devour the owner's body in turn."

Li Yao thought to himself, "My current state is a bit like 'burning my life, overdrawing my life'."

Anyway, judging by the author's appearance, he couldn't stop for a while, and it was impossible for Li Yao to hang on the outer wall all the time—even though the night was quiet, there would always be residents coming home from night shift, and it would be embarrassing if they were discovered.

Li Yao evaluated his combat effectiveness.

Although at the peak of his physical fitness, he can tear dumbbell plates with his hands, but when he is hungry, he doesn't think he can fight against a street police station with strong soldiers.

How about going out to replenish some energy first

I tiptoed back the same way, left the community very far, and then walked back to the main road. I found a 24-hour convenience store, bought a whole five boxes of chocolate peanut candies and a dozen cans of energy drinks, and went to a poor street. I found a secluded place in the back alley, stuffed all the chocolate peanut candies and drinks, and the flustered feeling was relieved a little.

Looking at the credit card overdraft limit displayed on the phone, Li Yao secretly sighed.

I hope all the mysteries can be solved as soon as possible, at least someone will tell him what's going on, otherwise, just taking in so many high-energy nutrients every day, his wallet can't stand it.

At this time, it was about two or three o'clock in the middle of the night, Li Yao was not in a hurry to steal the outline, he was going to wait for the darkest time before dawn, and also the most sleepy time before dawn. The author is not hardcore, he must sleep, right

I'm not planning to go back to school tonight, so let's pay attention to the news of the shooting at the T3 game exhibition while there is no one there.

For some reason, Li Yao always felt that this shooting happened strangely, and it was inextricably linked with the death of famous artists and cartoonists.

Logging in to the game forum again, the follow-up news of the shooting gradually fermented.

There were a total of four gunmen, three of whom were killed on the spot in the exchange of fire with the police, and one was injured and arrested. It was a bit unexpected. According to the latest official investigation results, the four gunmen were all white men with clean net worth. He has a normal job and a happy family, and has nothing to do with extremist organizations, so he doesn't look like a crazy terrorist.

However, the authorities carefully searched their remarks on social media, only to find that they joined an organization called "Apocalypse" and believed that "2018, the apocalypse came" was probably a replica of "2012, the end of the world" - nothing more than 2018 At the end of the year, the end of the world and the final judgment are coming. A catastrophe that is about to restart the whole world is inevitable, and only by helping the heavens harvest the souls of those who are confused can they have the chance of salvation. After the restart, the world will have a brighter and brighter future. Happy life, stuff like that, corny stuff.

Whether this little-known "Apocalypse Organization" exists or is it a cover for more well-known extremist organizations is temporarily unknown.

However, dozens of bloody records were added to the list of victims of the shooting at the T3 game exhibition.

In the production team of the game "Star Ring - The Battle of the End", in addition to the "Father of Star Ring" Garriott, two heavyweight producers also died in the hospital, a screenwriter and a scene architect , are the most trusted assistants and friends who have followed Garriott for more than ten years.

Considering that the current completion progress of "Star Ring - The Battle of the End" is only about 70%, the departure of such three heavyweight producers not only means that the game will be delayed indefinitely, even if the production can be completed one day, the final version will definitely be the same as "Father of the Ring" was originally conceived very differently.

It's a pity that no one knows what the "Father of the Star Ring" originally envisioned as "a magnificent final battle that concerns the ultimate future of the universe".

Li Yao found another mobile husband and wife restaurant that opened late at night, and ordered a big bowl of fried rice noodles, with extra eggs, sausage and oil residue, and while eating, he quickly refreshed the web page.

He checked all the major game forums, animation forums, and fantasy literature forums, just to find out if there were any new producers, cartoonists, or news about unexpected accidents.

So far, there is no news as sensational as the shooting at the T3 game show, but Li Yao found a very interesting post by searching keywords.

This is a post published on a large question-and-answer comprehensive website, which is actually a response to a question, the question is "How to evaluate the departure of the Internet writer 'Drunken Stardust'"

Li Yao didn't know anything about "Drunk Sleeping Stardust". After searching related entries, he found out that he was an unknown Internet writer. About three months ago, due to myocardial infarction or other reasons, he died in the middle of the night when no one was around. , quietly left this world.

Come to think of it, this question was raised by a loyal reader of "Drunk Lying Stardust", right

It's a pity that this internet writer is really not well-known. Apart from a few readers, he didn't get much response. The few answers were all about mourning the author and appreciating his works, which didn't help Li Yao much.

But one of the answers caught Li Yao's attention.

"I haven't seen the works of 'Drunken Stardust', but I am not surprised to hear the news of his death. Do you think 'Drunken Stardust' is just the first one

“Let me tell you—I am an avid fan of fantasy, comics, and games. In the past three years, the number of domestic and foreign, comics, and fantasy entertainment producers that I have collected, died of accidents or illnesses is far beyond Far more than a hundred, the list will be released below!"

The respondent released a series of lists of creators in related fields, followed by their ages and causes of death.

Li Yao took a quick glance, and found that the proportion of domestic and foreign patients was about half and half, and the proportion of deaths and accidents was also half and half, but among the deaths, more than half were under the age of fifty, which seemed a bit shocking.

It's just that most of the creators of fantasy works are not well-known, at most like "Drunk Lying Stardust", they are known to a small number of people in their respective niche fields, six to seven billion people in the world, every day Accidents are happening, and no one has connected their deaths together before.

"The next conclusion, maybe you will think that I am crazy, but please believe that I am not crazy, I am absolutely awake, and the voice in my head will not lie to me."

The respondent went on to write, "So many writers, cartoonists and producers lost their lives one after another, not because of accidents or diseases, but because of some mysterious force manipulating everything, directing a series of tragic deaths .

"I don't know what this force is, nor what its purpose is, but I believe this is just the beginning, the reason is very simple, because the creators who passed away abnormally in the past three years, the popularity and the popularity of their works Influence is not enough, this is just a few cold raindrops before the storm.

"Soon, believe me, soon there will be more heavyweight creators, some of the masters who created our bizarre fantasy worlds, believe me, no matter how normal they seem, their deaths are Accidents are all conspiracy, part of a huge conspiracy!"

This answer has dozens of comments, and it is extremely popular under this question.

But the vast majority of people expressed "opposition" and even cursed at the respondent.

Many people are scolding the respondent for grandstanding and using the deceased to attract attention—whether it is a writer, cartoonist or producer, working at a desk for a long time, day and night upside down, high mental pressure, the probability of sudden illness and long-term chronic disease is already higher than normal occupations It is much higher. In three years, what can the deaths of more than a hundred people around the world explain

And the conclusion that "the master will leave soon" is even more shameless to the extreme - since he is called a master, of course he has achieved fame, and he is already old, so why is it strange that a master in his 60s or 70s dies

In short, no one believed the respondent's words, and most people scolded him bloody.

However, Li Yao became interested in this answer because he found that the answer was exactly eight days ago, which was the day of the Tianma Lake International Animation Festival.

While the respondent was writing this message, in the West, Gilson, the famous master of fantasy literature and the author of "Blood and Sand", was clutching his heart and falling to the ground in pain, while in the East, he was drawing the famous cartoon of "Colonial Hunter" Yoshihiro Takaya, on the other hand, hummed a cheerful tune and walked on the bloody road to hell.

Is this a coincidence

Li Yao paid special attention to the account number of the answerer. The name the answerer gave himself was "Dream Traveler".

Click on his name, and you can see all the answer records he left on this question-and-answer website, densely packed for several pages.

This is the last reply he posted.

The penultimate item is a response to another question "What supernatural event has happened to you".

Dream Traveler wrote in this answer: "When I was in the third grade of elementary school, I once went swimming in the reservoir next to my grandmother's house and drowned for at least half an hour. Since then, I have become a 'Dream Traveler'.

"I know that no one will believe it, anyway, the website 'Knowledge' has long been a temple for braggarts and pretenders, but I don't care if you believe it or not, I just tell my own story.

"I have a hunch that 'they' are coming soon. If I don't say it now, maybe I will be like those people in a few days, and I won't have a chance to speak again."
