The forest under the red moon was still pitch black, with only faint insect sounds, but it didn't bring much life.
Xiao Lan stood by the lake, facing the calm water of the lake and asked Luo: "What do you think of what Adeline said?"
Luo said: "What Adeline said is basically the same as what we investigated before. Regarding the identity of Mrs. Red Moon, we also speculated that it might be Mrs. Weld, which is generally credible."
Dai Bumao wiped off the snot blisters that he had cried before: "How can I pay them back? Is it possible that they are not credible?"
Xiao Lan said: "It's also possible that Adeline is lying to us. After all, only she and Mrs. Hongyue know what happened back then."
Dai Bu Mao: "What should I do?"
Xiao Lan smiled: "The NPC may deceive people, but the plot mission will not. Unblocking Adeline must be an important part of the customs clearance. Let's follow the mission requirements first. As for the identity of Mrs. Hongyue, find a chance to take her Open the black veil and see if you don't see it?"
This proposal is really bold.
According to Madam Hongyue's brutality, to lift the black veil on her head, she must face her merciless attack, the danger is not small.
Dai Bumao was dumbfounded, and couldn't help but say, "Did you drop your hijab?"
Xiao Lan: "..."
Why are you still singing
Xiao Lan said: "You are more sober, if it is Mrs. Weld, not only will they be married and have children, but they will also be able to hammer a large living person to death with a fan."
Dai Bu Mao: "..."
Huh...
After talking about Mrs. Red Moon, Xiao Lan mentioned another thing: "At breakfast tomorrow, let's find other players to cooperate. If you break the tower seal, three people will not be enough."
Dai Bu Mao nodded in agreement, after which the three returned to the academy.
—
Luo still sent Xiao Lan to the bedroom today.
And she left after Xiao Lan said that she would not have any problem sleeping alone.
After taking a shower, lying on the student’s standard bed, Xiao Lan couldn’t help but look forward to seeing her and Luo’s past in her dreams after falling asleep two days ago. Will there be such a dream today? .
What will appear in the dream
Can you solve the doubts in his heart
…
His sleep has been very good, and soon, his sleepiness has hit.
In the dark world, sound and light suddenly appeared again.
Xiao Lan was already familiar with the surrounding environment. It was the office where he and Luo, who were young before, met for the first time.
Under the glow of the warm yellow candlelight, the teenager and the black-clothed man still sat chatting with each other, and their bodies were enveloped in a soft light and shadow.
The teenager was holding a teacup and was telling his experience after entering the game:
"As soon as I walked out, I saw a group of guys about my age, all in school uniforms. But I knew every word of what they said, but I didn’t even understand them at all, such as'newcomers' and'playgrounds'. And guess how I died..."
"Later, a strange guy attacked me. He was so powerful, he looked crazy..."
"In order to escape, I hid in an empty room, and I found a card in the cabinet, saying it was a skill or something."
"What kind of skills?" The man in black looked very interested.
The boy described to him [Poverty cannot limit my imagination] and asked: "What is this poverty value? Does it mean that I must be very poor?"
The black-clothed man filled the teacups for both of them with tea, his tone of voice did not rush: "In short, it is like this, and nothing is not enough. It must be poorer than ordinary people, such as negative equity."
Boy: "...who designed this cheating skill?"
If you want to activate this skill, don't you have to be a life-long pauper
The black man propped his chin with one hand, and there was a narrow light in his eyes: "I don't remember, if it wasn't that guy, it might be me, right?"
The boy cast a condemning look—
Is this something human can do
However, this one doesn't seem to be a human being.
Anyway, the boy had never seen anyone who could turn a person into nothing with a wave of his hand.
Moreover, the "that guy" he mentioned doesn't seem to be...
The man in black looked at the boy and smiled: "Do you have any plans for the future?"
The teenager did not understand: "From now on? Are you here?"
To be honest, he was only fifteen years old, and he really didn't have much social experience. Facing this dangerous and somewhat crazy game world, he was a bit awkward for a while.
Although his current position is safe, he clearly knows that, just across the door, there is a world full of violence and killing.
after
He didn't know how to plan for the future here.
The boy hesitated and said: "It's probably just... Take one step at a time, see how others do it, and then consider your own arrangements."
"What if you can go back?" the man in black asked again.
The teenager was a little surprised: "Can I go back?"
The black-clothed man blinked at him: "Normally, it's not possible, but if you cheat a little bit, it's not impossible."
The teenager lowered his voice, as if he was afraid of being overheard by someone: "Are you going to cheat for me?"
The man in black nodded slightly.
The teenager laughed: "Luo, you are so kind, I really want to take you to eat the cookies my mother made when I have a chance."
The black-clothed man said, "Maybe there will never be a chance. I can't go to the real world."
The teenager thought for a while: "Then I will go to learn, if I have a chance in the future, I can do it for you!"
The black-clothed man chuckled, "Okay, then I will keep looking forward to it."
Xiao Lan watching: "..."
What a dare to make a dare to eat.
As a teenager, after many years you will experience the severe beatings of the society, and then you will find the fact that you have no talent for cooking, and you will soon abandon your tastes and embark on the pinnacle of poverty.
As if thinking of something, the boy asked: "Do we have a chance to meet again in the future?"
The black-clothed man thought for a while, and felt it was better to tell the truth: "If we meet again, something bad may happen."
Boy: "What kind of thing?"
The man in black: "You will be in the same crisis as before, and I... I am seriously injured and dying, and weak to the limit."
The boy put down his teacup: "In that case, I will take care of you."
This sounded a bit naive and overwhelming.
Even if he enters the game again, he is just a newcomer with nothing. What can he do to protect the safety of others
But the young man said it seriously, obviously this is not a perfunctory sentence.
The black-clothed man looked at the teenager: "The situation at that time should have been very bad, I may not be what I am now, and you shouldn't remember me."
The teenager wondered: "Why? I shouldn't forget a person like you?"
The black man just smiled and did not answer.
He didn't intend to tell the boy that he would erase the memory of him in the boy's mind.
If you want to cut off everything related to the world, it is better not to leave a trace, so as not to arouse the curiosity of the young man, and eventually kill him.
The young man solemnly said to the black-clothed man: "If you need help then, just pretend to be pitiful. It looks like it would be dangerous if you don’t get help. Even if I don’t remember anything, I will definitely help you. ."
The man in black didn't laugh at the boy's unrealistic proposal.
He also solemnly sat up straight and said, "Okay, I remember."
Then, the man in black stood up.
He raised his hand in the air and gestured on the wall, his movements seemed to be easy, as if he was a well-conceived painter who was drafting a new work he had conceived for a long time.
It seems very powerful.
The boy followed his movements and looked over.
Teenager: "..."
The man in black is very skilled in his movements, but he just drew a door on the wall.
The door is still crooked, the two sides are not the same height, and the two borders are facing different directions, full of defiant spirit.
If it is not on the wall, it may not be easy to guess that this is a door.
The witty teenager felt that he had probably accidentally discovered the fact that the other party's artistic aesthetic direction was different.
Or simply a soul painter
Accompanied by the movements of the black-clothed man, this door slowly took shape.
He waved his hand and pushed open the door full of artistic atmosphere, behind the door some halos of invisible details appeared, and he didn't know where it led to.
The boy also stood up and looked at the door, which was quite incredible in terms of its appearance and appearance.
Teenager: "I can go back through here?"
The man in black nodded: "Going back here will be the place where you left originally."
"That's in my bedroom. I remember I was sleeping in bed before." The boy thought of something again, "What about my clothes? Should I wear this one?"
The man in black: "You don't need to change, the clothes will automatically recover when you go back, but—"
Speaking of him approaching the boy, his slender fingers ran across the boy's strangled neck. Under his movement, the mark of the boy who was strangled by the attacker completely disappeared, as if it had never existed.
Then, the black-clothed man's fingertips clicked on several injured parts that had been inspected before, and these wounds healed quickly in places that the teenager could not see.
Finally, his gaze fell on the boy's wrist: "This is the wound you made earlier, it looks like it has been a few days."
The boy said: "Yeah."
The black-clothed man stretched out his hand and brushed the boy's wrist. Under his action, the gauze that had been carefully bandaged turned back to the cloth strip that the boy had bandaged indiscriminately before.
"That's it." The man in black said.
The boy touched his wrist. From the outside, it looked like the one he was before, but his wrist didn't hurt at all. It was obviously the feeling after being bandaged by the other party.
Noticing the teenager's doubts, the black-clothed man said: "It's just a little blindfold, keep it until your wound has healed without any problems."
The teenager felt that such a technique was really magical.
Suddenly the boy felt his eyes go dark.
He raised his head and found that the man in black did not know when he had stood in front of him.
The black-clothed man stretched out his fingertips and tapped on the boy's forehead. A black mark appeared on the boy's forehead, and disappeared in an instant.
The boy only felt cold on his forehead, but when he reached out to touch it, he found that he couldn't feel anything: "What is this?"
The man in black said: "You will have the mark of the descending world on your body after being selected by the descending world. Even if you are sent away, you will soon be found again."
"I have left a mark of strength on your body, which can temporarily suppress the connection between the Descending World and you. However, if I am seriously injured or dying one day, this mark will be invalidated, and then your connection with the Descending World will be again recover."
Xiao Lan who was watching suddenly understood.
It turned out that the peaceful life he temporarily enjoyed was because Luo blocked the contact with the world for him.
Later, the reason why he entered the game again was probably inseparable from the fact that Luo was sealed in the envelope.
But he has only recently entered the game, and Luo seems to have been in the envelope for a long time. What is the reason
Is the time in the envelope different from the outside world
Or is there something else that Xiao Lan couldn't guess
Then I think of Xiao Chengyan knowing his skills and preparing debts for him.
Xiao Lan couldn't help thinking, what is the relationship between Luo, Xiao Chengyan, and the rebels
Is Luo Hui the rumored rebel
"You should go back." The black-clothed man interrupted Xiao Lan's thoughts.
Xiao Lan returned his attention to the two people in the dream.
The boy stood by the door, and showed a clean smile at the black-clothed man: "Then... Goodbye."
The man in black looked at him: "You should expect that we won't see each other again."
The boy said: "According to the etiquette of farewell, it is to say goodbye."
The man in black also smiled: "Okay"
The boy finally waved at him: "Goodbye."
The black-clothed man also followed the boy's motion and waved his hand: "Goodbye."
After bidding farewell, the young man turned and stepped into the world after the entrance, his figure was swallowed by a light and shadow, and he disappeared.
The man in black looked at the empty door and put down his hand.
Raising his hand again, the door disappeared instantly.
He made a goodbye promise that only he remembered.
Even if goodbye, it doesn't mean that something good will happen.
However, his mood was unexpectedly good.
