"Bai Yan."
He muttered to himself, his eyes dull.
Suddenly, a voice appeared in Aaron's mind.
[You have been chosen by fate, mysterious magic.]
Chapter 56 A different game
who
As soon as the voice appeared, Aaron's heart was extremely shocked!
Who is talking to me
Am I chosen by fate? Does destiny really exist? Often those who talk about "fate" are some cultists!
Could it be that some cultist is playing a trick on him
This voice sounded a bit familiar. It was Bai Yan's voice... He actually imitated his friend's voice, but his tone was completely unlike the Bai Yan he knew.
Haha, obvious flaw!
Aaron stood there without moving for the moment, but thought, what is the purpose of this voice
Also, how is it transmitted to your mind
This is the inside of the Demon Hunt Bureau!
Aaron was extremely horrified, even a little unbelievable.
There are countless various defensive spells and rituals, and they are even repaired and added every year. Otherwise, it would be a huge loss for the Air Alliance to pay the base defense department in vain!
Aaron is sure of one thing!
Even the "Shepherd" and the "Queen of the Scarlet Moon" cannot interfere silently within the Anti-Demon Bureau! Rather, the strength of the Anti-Demon Bureau is the source of order in Chenhai City!
Then, he discovered something even more terrifying!
My body was completely unable to move on its own, and I couldn't even move my fingers even if I tried to blink.
How is this going... ...
Aaron was a little confused in fear and confusion.
This is impossible!
—
"boom."
Bai Yan looked out the window of the apartment and found that the weather was gloomy and about to rain.
At first, there was just a slight drizzle outside the window, and then the rain became heavier and heavier, and bursts of thunder could be heard in his ears.
"Another rainy day..."
The sky gradually darkened. Bai Yan smelled the rain and calmly moved his eyes back to the mobile phone in his hand.
Task import.
A new game screen appears.
The camera zoomed in from a distance, showing a white apartment building that was extremely dim in the heavy rain. The game screen was no longer a pixel style but a 3D model.
The white apartment buildings looked old and didn't look like a place where rich people lived.
After a while, the "Secret Magic" with the same 3D model appeared, wearing a purple suit, a white mask, and a tall black top hat.
He walked slowly from outside the apartment, and the voice behind the mask came out.
"Cry! Beg! Struggle! Then die!"
Although there was no one in front of him, "Secret Magic" was still talking to himself, full of momentum, and seemed quite average.
Bai Yan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, trying not to laugh out loud. The voice sounded funny and a little familiar.
"Unlucky boy, you are very lucky to be chosen, but the voice sounds really familiar."
His pupils suddenly shrank.
"Why does this apartment building look... a little too familiar?"
No, it's the apartment where you are, right
Bai Yan suddenly had such an idea, and then the more he looked at it, the more he realized that the 3D modeled apartment building looked exactly like the place where he lived. Everything outside was completely in contrast, even the trash cans were exactly the same.
No way
Import task on my side? In other words, here soon there will be cultists, dependents, monsters, visitors from other worlds, extraordinary criminals...
Along with it comes danger.
With a strange mood, Bai Yan decided to continue the game first.
But he quickly confirmed one more thing.
That is the true identity of "Secret Magic".
In fact, from the beginning, he felt that the image of "Secret Magic" looked familiar and the voice sounded familiar, but he was not completely sure.
It wasn't until he checked the skill list that he was completely sure... Isn't this guy Aaron
"Transparent walls, transformed beasts, friends out of thin air, magic cane, scrying curtain, blade poker, wall penetration... A total of fourteen skills are outrageous enough. There is no early-stage character I know better than you. More versatile.”
Of course, the throne of the most versatile player in the later period is still firmly occupied by "Moon Annihilation Witch".
That woman possesses a 'Hidden Book' that records the abilities of others, and with countless followers of her own, her later skills are theoretically infinite.
Bai Yan went around a few times with Aaron in the toilet not long ago, and was deeply impressed by his magic cane, transformed beasts, transparent walls, etc.
I can’t say it’s flashy, I can only say it has many capabilities.
"But the firepower is seriously lacking. The only two destructive spells, "Blade Poker" and "Bursting Balloon" are not very impressive."
According to the description, the blade poker's lethality is only slightly different from that of an ordinary throwing knife.
The bursting balloon is more powerful, close to the power of modern grenades, and mainly relies on explosions and fragments to damage the enemy.
Of course, for ordinary people, the lethality is pretty good... But Bai Yan felt that the "Night Blade" could completely withstand it and rush over and chop him.
If the "Secret Magic" suddenly faces a giant monster like the Dark Shot or the Star Child, he can only simply scrape... Unless he is given time to set up the ceremony "the gorgeous stage of grand magic" and prepare hundreds of them in advance "Bursting Balloons" tie-in.
"Okay, okay, I know you are a functional player. Team battles and outsmarting tasks will definitely help you."
Bai Yan no longer muttered, but seriously manipulated the "secret magic" and approached the apartment.
Soon a "cut scene" appears.
"Secret Magic" squatted gracefully on the ground and said to himself: "I smell blood."
Blood?...
Seeing this, Bai Yan suddenly had a very bad feeling in his heart.
The contents in the "Tower of Babel" game are all things that will happen in the real future. If the smell of blood appears here, it is likely that there are casualties.
The heavy rain in the game still didn't stop. Under the dark night, "Secret Magic" slowly stood up. His purple clothes were soaked through by the rain.
The white mask was obviously smiling, but now it looked like he was crying.
"Secret Magic" slowly walked into the apartment.
The next moment, Bai Yan's eyes widened! Both hands subconsciously squeezed the phone!
Inside the familiar apartment, there were bloody and messy broken bodies and incomplete human corpses everywhere. It was obvious that they had experienced a horrific massacre.
Bai Yan suddenly calmed down.
He controlled the "secret magic" to continue walking in the apartment, and then he saw more and more corpses. Even if he wanted to see a living person, it was a luxury.
Bai Yan silently found many acquaintances among the corpses.
He has lived here for several years, and the neighbors have not left much of a deep impression on him.
I just remember that there were a few aunts who were very nosy, there was a skinny old veterinarian who often liked to joke, and there were two families upstairs and downstairs who quarreled every week because of water leakage... The people living here are just Just ordinary people.
After approaching a corpse, the "Investigation" option appeared in front of "Secret Magic", and Bai Yan immediately pressed it.
He knelt down on one knee, transformed into a black detection curtain, placed it on the body in front of him, and began to search for clues.
"Ding, no useful clues found."
Do you want a little investigation? Bai Yan did not worry, but used the "secret magic" to go to room after room and watch the human tragedies again and again.
The nosy aunt is dead, the old veterinarian is dead, and the quarrelsome neighbors are dead.
In the game screen, all he could hear was the footsteps of "Secret Magic" and the pouring rain in the night.
However, Bai Yan found no trace of himself among the corpses.
"Secret Magic" will collect some seemingly insignificant clues from time to time, but if these clues are sorted out a little, they will lead him to keep moving forward and find the correct target location.
In the last room, a group of middle-aged men and women who should be parents were guarding the body of a child.
They held on to their hope until the last moment and still did not give up.
However, it doesn't help at all. The weak can't change anything...
Bai Yan was calm and his expression remained unchanged. He had also seen the family playing ball downstairs. At that time, the harmonious laughter made him really envious.
"Secret Magic" walked in, stretched out his hand to hold the black detection curtain, and gently put it up.
"Ding, useful clues have been found."
"Secret Magic" said to himself: "Well, this is the unique flavor left by the 'Dark Beast'. This kind of terrifying monster does not exist in Noah. Someone must have summoned and manipulated it."
"It's actually a dark beast?"
Bai Yan is very familiar with dark beasts. This kind of monster exists in the shadow world and is a life form with the same origin as the shadow demon. However, most dark beasts do not have enough intelligence and only act to kill and devour.
Dark beasts and shadow demons will eat each other and evolve. After digesting hundreds of losers, a "monarch" level shadow king will be born.
Lord of Shadows.
This thing once caused Bai Yan to get stuck in game missions. It was really difficult.
"If a Shadow King pops up now, he can probably massacre the whole city. Even the Queen of Scarlet Moon can't do anything with it... That thing is extremely fast, its attacks cannot be defended, and it is immune to the real world. Despite all the injuries, his IQ is extremely high."
The dark beast is much easier to deal with.
But Bai Yan knows one thing, if the dark beast comes to the real world, it must be controlled by someone... There are others behind the scenes!
The person hiding behind the scenes is the mastermind of the massacre.
At this time, a shrill roar suddenly came from the game screen.
"Secret Magic" immediately went on alert.
From the shadow of the wall not far away, a dark monster like an "alien" emerged.
The dark beast has no facial features, only a long and flat head like a crustacean insect. The streamlined black body is breathing and squirming. It is violent and cruel, and its whole body exudes a sense of pure killing that is very consistent with the aesthetics of violence.
It is like all life in the shadow world, ordinary physical attacks have no effect.
"Roar."
The dark beast sensed the human in front of it, exposed its wriggling black fangs and roared in a low voice, and its ferocious black mouth was filled with bright red blood that did not belong to it.
Its body curled up slightly, and it instantly shot towards the "Secret Magic" like a bullet!
Chapter 57: Win-Win Dark Beast!
The moment of pounce is theoretically impossible for humans to react to.
The Dark Beast pounces faster than any other beast! It can even compare to the firing speed of bullets!
The next moment, the game screen of "Tower of Babel" immediately entered a state of slow motion, giving players a short reaction time.
"It's become an action game now, right?"
Bai Yan, who was already an extraordinary person, reacted faster than before, without panicking at all. He immediately controlled the "Secret Magic" and waved the magic cane to use the skill "Transparent Wall".
"boom!"
