"Can you imagine? It's already outrageous enough that this operation has me teamed up with a pretentious priest of light." A blond young man complained openly while holding his cell phone. He had pale skin, and seemed to have put on black eyeliner and red contact lenses. When he spoke, his canine teeth were much sharper than usual.
Two meters away from him stood a blue-eyed man with an elegant temperament, a cross earring on his left ear, and a Bible in his hand, like a devout believer. But this gentlemanly-looking man suddenly took out a piece of garlic from his briefcase and put it into his mouth like a cigar.
A pungent smell lingered in the air.
Qing's expression froze for a moment as he complained loudly. He retched under control and quickly took two steps back as if avoiding the plague. Then he looked up at his partner in horror: "Oh damn! Stop it right now! Christine!"
Christine ate the garlic calmly.
Darien collapsed, holding his nose, and complained to the friend on the other end of the phone: "Fuck you, that idiot Christian is eating garlic! He did it on purpose! What? Of course vampires are afraid of garlic, I have always hated garlic! How can someone like this shitty food as much as a fly?!"
Christine pulled a second clove of garlic from the bag.
Darien's pupils trembled, "! Christine! For the Emperor's sake!!!"
Christine stopped, and for the sake of his partner, he narrowed his eyes and looked at the few people walking towards him in the distance.
Darien also turned around to look, his face still showing disgust and disgust, "Look, it's really damned, I have to receive him with his followers - I hope he is a capable Far Eastern wizard -"
The green figure that stood out like a crane among chickens gradually became clear. When only a rough outline could be seen, one could still feel his outstanding temperament, indifferent and gentle.
As you get closer, what is more eye-catching than his temperament is his exotic appearance. His skin is as white as snow, and his hair and eyes are as black as ink. Especially when set against the backdrop of several other Oriental people, his whole body is filled with replicable refinement and beauty.
Darien was speechless for a moment.
The friend on the other end of the phone asked with concern: "Hello? Are you still there?"
"Why didn't he say so to me?" Darien murmured, "Beautiful."
Christian took out the mouthwash from his bag and sprayed it into his mouth twice. He glanced at Darien again, and when Darien's mouth opened slightly, Christian also sprayed in Darien's direction accurately.
Darien: “?”
When Tang Ning reached the agreed point, he heard the two foreign partners who were in charge of handing over the goods to him greeting each other enthusiastically in a staccato foreign language.
With Tang Ning's listening ability, it was difficult for him to understand the meaning of the series of English words spoken at a rapid speed. The two teammates seemed very lively and emotional.
It was Tangning who gave a polite smile.
When the blue-eyed man saw Tangning coming, he extended his hand to her and said in fluent Chinese, "My name is Christine, nice to meet you."
The first step to shake hands is a shadow wearing a mask.
Christine suppressed her smile and stared at the shadow.
"You guys, I'm Tangning." Tangning didn't like socializing, so after briefly introducing himself, he asked directly, "Are we going to the research institute now?"
"Yes." Christine smiled and said, "I will lead the way for you."
All signals within ten kilometers of the institute were severely interfered with. At the same time, thick fog covered the surroundings. It was difficult to find the correct direction without a guide.
Twinings point.
Darien didn't understand what Tangning and Christine were talking about, but that didn't stop him from excitedly saying to Tangning, "Oh! Are you a mysterious lady? I can almost believe you're real. Your eyes are so mysterious. Oh my god, I'm gay, but you really fit my aesthetic..."
Tangning stared at the stranger blankly. After thinking for a while, he looked at Christine and asked, "What do you mean, what is he doing?"
Christine translated simply: "He is gay."
Tangning: “?”
Tangning smiled in an awkward and rude manner.
Darien looked at Tangning's smile and held back his words, "I really can't bear to see you die. If I say anything, it would be a sin. Tang, that research institute should be where you are going—"
Christian opened the Bible in his hand and read a series of words that sounded like a prayer to everyone present.
Then, a faint holy light fell on everyone present.
Tang Ning felt a kind of warmth, as if the sun was shining on him.
Then, Tangning suddenly heard a scream. He looked over and saw the red-eyed boy holding his chest, still muttering to him. He looked like he was dying. Tangning now understood what the red-eyed boy was saying as he uttered a few familiar curse words.
Christine explained to Tangning, "What I meant is, when I was sending blessings to everyone, I forgot that he needed it."
Tang Ning kept smiling. He saw that Darien seemed to want to say something to him, but after hesitating for a moment, Darien swallowed back the words that were about to come out.
They entered the thick fog together. Tang Ning found that Christine was like a walking light bulb, able to illuminate a distance of about meters behind him. Tang Ning saw that there should be flower beds nearby, but the flower beds were mostly empty, with soil scattered all over, looking messy.
Suddenly.
A burst of hurried footsteps sounded!
Suddenly, a blue-white figure jumped out of the mist. The next moment, the sickly red-eyed boy jumped up and subdued the monster that attacked them. Tang Ning found that the monster was wearing research institute clothes and a layer of disgusting white hair.
"Is this a zombie?" Si Tai asked in surprise.
Li Haoyuan stared at the monster and then looked at Tang Ning. He thought of the ghost copy.
Tangning nodded at him.
They continued walking towards the research institute. On the way to the research institute, Tang Ning found that a store seemed to have been looted. In addition, in this strange fog, zombie-like monsters would jump out from time to time, and the red-eyed boy would pounce on them at the first opportunity and get rid of them.
The division of labor between the two is very wrong. Just looking at their auras, it seems that they are compatible. If there were no external enemies, they would fight at any time.
Finally, they arrived at a seemingly ordinary building.
Both Christine and Darian stopped, they looked at this out-of-control research institute with fear. During this period, they had led many card game players into this research institute. No matter how powerful the players were, without exception, they all died in this research institute and never came out again.
"I can only take you here." Christine said.
Tangning nodded. When Tangning was about to go in, Darien remained silent. He then said to Tangning, "My dear Tang, I want to remind you that it's not too late for you to leave this shitty place. This place is not as safe as you think. I really can't bear to see someone like you die in this place..."
Tangning looked at Christine.
Christine translated: "He you are beautiful."
Si Tai whispered from behind Tang Ning, "Dad, this red-eyed man is very dangerous here."
"Thank you." Tangning turned and walked towards the Mist Research Institute.
After Tang Ningxing's figure completely disappeared, Darien looked at Christine next to him, "I can't believe it, man. How could you bear to watch such a beauty die?"
Christian took out a real cigar from his bag the same way he took out a cigar. He asked calmly, "Really?"
Darien licked his fangs, his bloodshot eyes flashing with a faint light. He said regretfully: "I didn't even have the chance to taste him."
…
Tang Ning stood at the entrance of the research institute.
Tang Ning did not push the door open directly, but planned to see what Si Tai and Li Haoyuan thought first.
"Li Haoyuan, what do you think we should do now?" Tang Ning asked.
Li Haoyuan had a serious expression. Ever since he entered the card game, he had been acting based on his intuition and instinct. Even though the cards would not come into play outside the game, his sixth sense was much more accurate than before.
"Mr. Tang, I feel there is a very powerful presence inside, very similar to the No. 1 we encountered in the ghost copy." Li Haoyuan said seriously: "If it is really No. 1 who is invading, we must show the most aggressive intention and remain friendly."
Tang Ning pointed out that he found that Li Haoyuan was indeed a person worthy of training. This super intuition was probably only reflected in Li Haoyuan's perception of danger. From the fact that Li Haoyuan always stood firmly on his side, it can be seen that Li Haoyuan's intuition was extremely accurate in seeking benefits and avoiding harm.
"Si Tai, what do you think?" Tang Ning turned to ask Si Tai.
Si Tai didn't know much about the ghost copy. He clung to Li Haoyuan tightly. In fact, he wanted to cling to Tang Ning more, but there was a shadow standing next to Tang Ning. "I don't have any idea." He still had a dull look on his face.
This already satisfied Tang Ning.
Si Tai had only experienced one dungeon so far, and his mentality was very stable from beginning to end. In the Ghost Mother dungeon, Tang Ning remembered that when he had lost his memory, he and Si Tai encountered a ghost baby. At that time, Si Tai was extremely scared, but he still remembered pulling him and running away.
Now, Si Tai understands that Darian is dangerous. Tang Ning also told Si Tai that the trip would be very dangerous. If Si Tai wanted to run away, Tang Ning would definitely stop him. Now, Si Tai still has the courage to stand at the door of the research institute. This mentality is enough to defeat many new players.
Tangning thought about setting off again. He asked Si Tai why he was willing to go on an adventure with him. Si Tai's answer warmed his heart: "I want to write less updates."
This time when exploring the research institute, Tang Ning did not expect Si Tai and Li Haoyuan to really do anything. He walked to the gate and was about to push open the door, but the door opened by itself.
Shadow stood beside Tang Ning, accompanying Tang Ning as a guardian as he faced the out-of-control research institute that was rumored to be gone forever.
The moment the door opened completely, Tang Ning was stunned.
Only Tang Ning was stunned. Li Haoyuan and Si Tai, who came with Tang Ning, also opened their eyes wide in disbelief.
The scene that appeared before them was not the bloody and corpse-filled scene they had imagined, but rather the exact opposite.
The research institute was filled with flowers, some of whose roots were still covered with dirt, as if they had been plucked not long ago. The colorful flowers covered the bloodstains and the smell of blood in the air, and the faint fragrance of flowers floated in the air.
Around the hall stood neatly lined up "greeters". These greeters wore blood-stained clothes, revealing white hair that made the skin numb. They all covered their faces with masks. They were masks, but actually they were just pieces of white paper stuck on their faces, and all the papers were painted with a simple expression -
"︶"
Tangning blinked, then he slowly raised the corners of his lips and smiled softly.
He knew that this was No. 1, the best and most obedient No. 1 in the world.
Shadow tilted his head slightly, looked at Tang Ning's face and smiled gently, and suddenly realized that this was not so simple.
As expected, Tangning turned around and said to Shadow, "Are you going to fight with him later? Call number 1, Ji Da, you're still a kid."
shadow:"?"
Tang Ning was really worried about Shadow and No. 1 fighting. Shadow had already merged the energies of several princes, and No. 1 was a boss in a low-level book. He was originally a super boss in a high-level book, and now he had been invaded by a supernatural being and had come to reality. His strength was probably greatly weakened, and he was definitely stronger than Shadow.
If Shadow and No. 1 fought, Tang Ning was worried that No. 1 would be overwhelmed.
The next moment, Tang Ning saw the shadow suddenly bend down his tall body, rest his head on Tang Ning's shoulder, and try hard to act like a baby.
The hardware conditions are really good.
Tangning couldn't help but burst out laughing. This smile didn't have the softness and sweetness that she had felt when she thought of No. 1 just now. Instead, it was filled with the joy of "you're stupid but I'm laughing like thunder".
shadow:"… "
Shadow straightened up silently and glanced at Li Haoyuan and Si Tai behind Tang Ning.
Li Haoyuan immediately covered his eyes, indicating that he saw nothing.
Si Tai simply hid behind Li Haoyuan.
Tangning saw Shadow's low mood, so he quickly imitated Shadow's move and leaned his head against Shadow's shoulder, saying softly, "I just did that because you think I'm very powerful."
Shadow was instantly coaxed by Tangning and hugged Tangning with a smile on his face.
Tangning continued to lead Shadow as they walked along the path covered with fresh
Flowers, in addition to fresh flowers, there are also candies.
The candies formed a crooked line on the surface, guiding Tang Ning in the direction.
Tang Ning picked up a candy every time he walked.
He knew that No. 1 loved to eat candies, and candies were very precious to No. 1. These candies were like No. 1's clumsy thoughts, and he wanted to leave these thoughts behind.
Si Tai and Li Haoyuan followed behind Tang Ning, their brains were in a similar state of freeze.
If he had known that they had entered the Institute of Terror and were dealing with supernatural events, Si Tai would have thought that he had entered a proposal scene or a scene where a couple was setting up a surprise.
This is too outrageous! I dare to write like this! ! !
Si Tai's face was shocked.
Li Haoyuan had followed Tang Ning through two dungeons, and he had also experienced the ghost dungeon, so he knew how obsessed No. 1 was with Tang Ning. So when he thought about it this way... it was still very outrageous, to the point where even posting on a card game forum would be exposed as fake.
Following the guidance of the candies, Tang Ning passed through one laboratory after another. The doors of those laboratories were all closed. Tang Ning could see clearly what was inside the doors. The line made of candies finally pointed to a laboratory with an open door.
Tang Ning walked into the laboratory.
He saw candies densely packed all over the room. Although there were a lot of candies, they were after all covered with black cloth without any gaps. Through the gaps between the candies, Tang Ning could see the cruel layout of this laboratory.
He saw a transparent container filled with light blue liquid, with a huge brain floating in the middle of the liquid...
Densely packed with circuits, this brain seems to be a living thing that requires constant supply of nutrition and stimulation.
In addition to this container, there were four or five similar vessels, filled with limbs, livers, and various other things that made Tang Ning's brain go blank.
… What are these
Is it number 1
Number 1 was treated like this again?!
Blood rushed to his head, and Tang Ning seemed to hear the sound of his own rationality snapping. A huge anger and heartache swept through Tang Ning's body and mind, and Tang Ning's hands began to tremble slightly.
Shadow immediately held Tangning's hand and looked at her with concern.
Li Haoyuan held his breath and looked at Tang Ning nervously.
Crash.
At this moment, a small black mist emerged from the candy pile. It was No. 1, the young No. 1. At this moment, No. 1 was no longer busy playing surprise hide-and-seek with Tang Ning, and came to Tang Ning swaying like a cloud.
Shadow also raised his hand and slapped No. 1 away like he was swatting away an annoying fly. After Shadow successfully expelled No. 1, Tang Ning, with tears in his eyes, slapped Shadow's hand away first. He hugged the small ball of black mist with heartache, "No. 1!"
After Tang Ning slapped his hand away, the shadow froze in place, like a petrified statue. Even with a half mask on, one could still see the uncovered part. "You actually slapped me!" He was shocked.
Soon, Shadow's attention was focused on Tang Ning's sad state. He wanted to comfort Tang Ning, but he didn't know how to do it.
Bingbingliangliang No. 1 was active in Tang Ning's arms. Looking harmless, it quickly established a mental connection with Tang Ning. Tang Ning could hear the little black cloud calling him "father" again. Its tone was full of urgent inquiry, as if asking Tang Ning why he was suddenly in trouble.
"These..." Tangning was too distressed to come out. He pointed at the painful object in the container and asked, "Who did this?"
Through the spiritual link, No. 1 said that he also knew that these things were in this place when he came here.
Tangning: “…?”
Tangning hesitated and asked, "Is that you?"
No. 1: “?”
No. 1 firmly stated that of course it was him, and even used the mental link to persuade Tangning that his organs were definitely better than the things in the container, and mentioned that if he had an organ.
Tang Ning originally thought that after the No. 1 spirit invaded reality, it had repeated the same mistake and was tortured to the point where it could only maintain the most basic black fog state. After discovering that this was not the case, he hurriedly asked what was going on.
Through the mental link, Tang Ning quickly learned the whole story of Perspective No. 1.
When No. 1 came to reality, he was in the state of a black fog and had lost a lot of memories. He only remembered that he had to find his father.
No. 1 believed that his father would appear in a place similar to the research institute, so he just kept wandering around, and finally the out-of-control research institute was discovered.
No. 1 happily checked in.
When he checked in, he took care of the monsters in this out-of-control institute and polluted the institute with his own energy. Then he began to decorate the institute with trepidation, preparing to give his father a big surprise.
"By the way, there should be people coming to the research institute to explore during this period. Did you see them?" Tang Ning thought of this and asked No. 1 immediately.
Number 1 floated out of Tang Ning's arms, hovering in the air, guiding Tang Ning towards the prescription.
Tang Ning quickly followed No. 1 to the laboratory he had just passed. When the doors of the rooms were closed and the doors of the laboratories were opened, Tang Ning saw the card game players who were tied up.
These poor bodies were intimately connected to nutrient solution tubes by No. 1, until they starved to death.
When they saw Tang Ning, a new light burst out in their numb eyes and they whined with excitement.
"What's going on?" Tangning asked in a daze.
From No. 1's perspective, only his father could walk on the flower-paved road happily. These people broke in and destroyed the carefully prepared arrangements without any guilt. In anger, No. 1 directly locked up these vandals.
After telling Tangning about the love story, No.1 couldn't help but start spinning around her like a little kid asking for praise.
Father, No. 1 is obedient.
I have forgotten a lot, but I still remember Tang Ning's restraints. Even when he was extremely angry, he only locked these things.
Tangning looked at the dark cotton candy and his heart seemed to become as fluffy and soft as the cotton candy. Tangning curled his eyes and praised softly, "Good boy."
The black marshmallow instantly expanded and floated back into Tang Ning's arms, bubbling with black bubbles out of it.
Faced with this situation, Shadow, who had been left out for so long, could no longer endure it. After realizing that he could not separate Tangning and No.1, he became furious and began to do evil things.
Shadow also squeezed into Tang Ning's arms and joined this family.
