"Is he the ?"
Looking at the figure who seemed to be out of tune with his surroundings, leaning against the pillar with his arms folded and eyes closed, waiting for the game to begin, the mirror murmured to itself as if it was talking to itself.
Sitting in front of the mirror, Shino noticed the envy and yearning in his eyes when he looked at Luo Zhen.
At the same time, there is still a trace of jealousy.
Frankly speaking, Shino still felt a little uncomfortable with such jealousy.
Although, logically speaking, this seems to be human nature. Because of the existence of the currency conversion mechanism, in GGO, professional players and top players are generally jealous and envied by ordinary players. Coupled with status and reputation, for powerful players , people have always been like this, unavoidable, not to mention that Mirror used to be a well-known first-class player, so I feel even more sympathetic to these. Now that he is on the decline, he will have such envy, yearning and affection for Luo Zhen, who is on the rise. Jealousy was a natural thing, but Shino still felt uncomfortable.
At that moment, Shino took the initiative to speak.
"Do you care about him that much?" Shino pretended not to care, "Then go over and talk to him. He should pay attention to you."
After hearing this, the mirror realized and quickly shook his head.
"I'm not familiar with him at all. If I just go up to say hello to him, people might mistakenly think that I'm just like the players who ambush him before, and I want to find trouble with him. That would be bad, so let's forget it. "
Mirror didn't have the guts to step forward and talk to Luo Zhen.
Shino also understands.
After all, in the real world, Mirror is a student who has been bullied by upperclassmen. For this reason, he doesn't even want to go to school to study, and chooses to study at home. In this way, he only has a little contact with Shino. Others themselves are timid and resistant.
In this regard, she is very similar to Shino.
In the real world, Shino also resists communication with people around her. Even if she doesn't want to make friends, due to her special situation, Shino can no longer trust others easily, let alone have the energy to do such things. .
The reason why I can maintain my current relationship with Jingjing is simply because he is my leader, and they have the game GGO as a common topic, so they can always get along well with each other.
But that's all.
Now, Sinon really doesn't have much energy to make friends with others, let alone communicate with others. As a result, she really has no interest in others and only pays attention to the strong people in GGO.
Only by defeating these strong people, constantly defeating them, and making yourself stronger in GGO, will your spirit and heart in the real world become stronger.
In this way, Shino can overcome that weakness.
It was only with this thought that Sinon was able to become a famous sniper in GGO in just half a year.
The purpose is just to continuously send Hecate's bullets into the enemy's head, blowing away all the strong men, and allowing himself to get closer to the target step by step.
The mirror seemed to know more or less about Shino's condition, so when he looked at Shino with firm eyes, there was a trace of worry in his eyes.
"Is it really okay?" Jing Jing said with a worried face: "Even if I just stand here and watch, I can feel the power of that person. That person is really quite strong, and you teamed up with others two days ago. The players can’t do anything to him, can they really defeat him this time?”
The concerns about the mirror are not unfounded.
After experiencing the battle in the Land of Death, Shino herself could not imagine herself defeating Luo Zhen, let alone the scene in which Luo Zhen would be hit by her own bullet.
To be honest, Shino knew very well that the probability of defeating Luo Zhen would be infinitely close to zero.
No, it should be said that it is probably zero, with no possibility of victory.
But so what
"Even if I know that his power is beyond my reach, I still have to defeat him."
Sinon's arms held in front of her slowly tightened, letting her fingers sink into the flesh of her arms.
"As long as I can defeat him and defeat this unprecedentedly powerful enemy that is absolutely impossible to defeat, then I will definitely be able to achieve my goal this time."
Shino had such a premonition.
It can be said that Shino had no choice.
So far, Shino has defeated countless powerful enemies, and has thought countless times that her spirit and soul are much stronger than before, but she just can't overcome that weakness and that tragic past.
Therefore, Sinon can only keep fighting and fighting powerful enemies in order to one day achieve what she wants in her heart.
And Luo Zhen is undoubtedly the strongest player and the most terrifying strong person that Sinon has ever seen in GGO.
If you can defeat him...
No, it should be said that if you defeat him, you can't overcome that...
Then, in this life, Shino estimated that she would be hopeless.
Therefore, Shino must defeat him and overcome this obstacle.
Even if the probability is zero, that's the same.
"... ... Yeah?"
The mirror lowered its eyes.
However, soon, the mirror raised its head again and looked at Shino.
"Then come on." Jing Jing smiled softly and said, "I will be here to help you cheer up."
"Thank you." Shino relaxed her body.
Inadvertently, Shino turned her head and looked in Luo Zhen's direction again.
"well?"
Seeing this, Shino was stunned.
"that person... "
The mirror was also slightly startled, looking in Luo Zhen's direction, a little surprised.
Not only the two of them, but all the players who were more or less secretly following Luo Zhen were stunned.
Because everyone saw it.
Someone approached Luo Zhen.
A person who exudes an eerie aura.
... ... ... ...
"Um?"
Luo Zhen, who was closing his eyes to rest, noticed something strange. He frowned slightly and opened his eyes.
When he opened his eyes, a horrifying scene appeared in front of him.
I saw, at some point, a person appeared in front of Luo Zhen.
A man wearing tattered dark gray robes, with a dark hood under a low hood, a skeletal mask on his face, and his eyes glowing red, like the god of death.
Such a person appeared silently in front of Luo Zhen, raised his head, and his eyes lit up like will-o'-the-wisps.
Immediately afterwards...
"is it you... ?"
A low, hoarse, and metallic-heavy voice came from under the other party's mask.
"Are you... myself...?"
The hoarse and intermittent words reached Luo Zhen's ears, making Luo Zhen frown even deeper.
For some reason, Luo Zhen felt that this voice and the way he spoke seemed familiar.
"Who are you?"
Luo Zhen asked directly.
This made the other party's eyes become even redder.
As if confirming something, the other party's hoarse voice continued to sound.
"Sure enough... it's just like what was said online... you... are here..."
The death-like figure spoke staccato words as if grinning.
"It's great...I've waited...for this opportunity...those guys will definitely...envy me to death..."
The other party said such incomprehensible words.
Luo Zhen just looked at him coldly and said nothing.
In response, the other party seemed to have stopped talking to himself.
"I've been waiting for this day... for a long time..."
The other party looked at Xiang Luozhen.
"Let's... continue... have fun... and enjoy... the game..."
"... Our former enemies..."
"It's Showtime..."
