When Xue Lihong came out with a full stomach, she heard Xiao Mo arguing with a cold-hearted young man... or should I say arguing
Xiao Mo said: Since everyone is an intelligent creature, why can those aliens treat them as NPCs in the game and kill them at will? Don’t those aliens have any sympathy? And aren’t those aliens afraid of death
The system snorted coldly and asked him: If there is a 100% real game, even if there is a risk of death, as long as you play it and survive, you will get certain benefits. This benefit can be directly reflected in yourself in the real world. Do you want to play with it? If you don’t play, will others play
Seeing that Xiao Mo was speechless, the system stabbed him again: "There will never be a shortage of people in this world who seek excitement and take risks for a little progress. What's more, the Earth Playground provides so many benefits, and all players will think that they He is the protagonist. No one thinks that they will definitely die when they enter the playground on Earth. On the contrary, they all think that they will be the ones who can leave with benefits after paying a little travel expenses and game time fees."
Xue Lihong's interface: "Do you expect players who will risk coming to Earth to seek benefits and excitement to have sympathy? Maybe, but I think since the developers dare to let these players come, they must have made various preparations, such as letting them Sign a confidentiality contract to ensure that they will keep their mouths shut if they see anything illegal on Earth. Of course, if an alien player really takes a fancy to an Earthling, they can probably take it back as a pet or something like that. , but there will be a chip added to the brain. Your Majesty, do you think so?"
System, "Humph."
"But just like a wealthy prince from a foreign country would fall in love with a commoner girl from a foreign country. This kind of thing cannot be said to be non-existent, but there are probably only one or two cases among hundreds of millions of people, not to mention that the two are of different races. God knows What do those alien players look like? Maybe we earthlings see them the same way we see a group of intelligent cockroaches. No matter how intelligent cockroaches are, how many humans would want to fall in love with them?" Xue Lihong Congxue He dug up the body of the alien player, cut it open, and took out a small green mantis that was asleep due to over-repairing.
Xiao Mo had nothing to say, and raised his hands to surrender under the attack of the two parties, "Are you full? Let's set off immediately?"
Xue Lihong said he was not in a hurry and asked if the system bracelet had been modified, how big the current space was, and whether the super monster, the alien player's body, and the two spaceships could be taken away together.
"You don't need to tell me, I have expanded the bracelet space to the maximum." The system hummed. This is also the reason why it takes twenty-four hours to transform the bracelet. Since it needs to be transformed, it must be transformed to the best. Today's bracelet is not just a space bracelet.
"How big is the biggest one?" Xue Lihong asked.
"It's enough to hold all the things you mentioned." The system also added: "If you want more space in the future, you can look for other space items of the same type, and I can merge them."
Xiao Mo and Xue Lihong understood: in the future, the bracelet space where the system will be stationed will be a space that can grow, but it will need to devour other spaces to grow.
Since the space was large enough, Xiao Mo and Xue Lihong simply packed up everything that could be packed nearby.
"How are we going back? Do you want to get two pairs of skis? Can you ski?" Xiao Mo suggested as he couldn't bear to let Xue Lihong carry him flying in the snow.
"What can't I do? I'll fly you into the city first, and then see if there are any suitable tools, and focus on collecting food." Xue Lihong didn't show off and said she would fly all the way back to Zhongshan base with Xiao Mo.
"Okay." Xiao Mo held on to Xiaohong and finally couldn't help but ask: "How do you... feel? Why can you..."
Xue Lihong seemed to have expected that Xiao Mo would not be able to help but ask him these two questions, but before he could speak, His Majesty the System suddenly interrupted: "He should be very good. According to the genes I just collected from him, The latest conclusion drawn from the analysis is that although he is still a big hybrid, his genes have stabilized."
Xue Lihong lowered her head, and then noticed that she was holding Xiao Mo's left wrist. The bracelet that His Majesty the System wore was on this wrist, but it was invisible, so even he didn't pay much attention to it.
The system clicked its tongue, "For a species to achieve genetic stability, it takes countless years of natural evolution. This big hybrid is really lucky."
Xue Lihong was too lazy to pay attention to the sour tone of the system. She just looked at Xiao Mo and whispered: "How much blood did you put on me?"
"Ah, I didn't..."
"I mean your blood!"
Xiao Mo suddenly realized, lowered his head and sneered, "I don't know, I didn't know what I was doing at that time."
Xue Lihong didn't say thank you, she just took the person into her arms, hugged him hard, and let him go.
"Is what your Majesty said true?" Xiao Mo was still a little worried. He needed Xiaohong to tell him that it was okay. When he first woke up, he was confused by Xiaohong. Later, when Xiaohong complained about being hungry, he didn't have time to ask in detail.
Xue Lihong hugged him and nodded: "Well, it's as it said. I feel very good, I have never felt better. In the past, I could only find ways to stabilize my genes, and even if I wanted to train myself, I didn't dare to go too far. I don’t dare to eat randomly for fear of genetic collapse. But now, I can finally start my own cultivation path.”
Xue Lihong said the last four words in a joking tone, but her attitude was extremely serious.
"So you can become stronger?" Xiao Mo's eyes widened.
The tall young man raised his hand to wipe away the snowflakes that fell on his eyebrows, and smiled slightly, "Of course." His journey to become stronger had just begun.
Xiao Mo was dazzled by the young man's smile and didn't even know he was being kissed. Later, I was confused by the kiss, and I thought it would be a pity to never see the doll version of Xiaohong again.
Is it really impossible to see it again? Well, now that question is a mystery.
"That's right! You haven't told me yet, why can you come back from the dead?" Xiao Mo pushed the young man away with force and was almost knocked over by this guy.
The young man looked at him dissatisfied.
Xiao Mo pressed him again. He must get a clear answer, otherwise the same thing would happen again. He couldn't guarantee whether he would collapse. But every time he asked, Xue Lihong would bite him.
Xiao Mo: "... Hello!"
Xue Lihong lowered her face, and the villain accused him first: "You don't take me to heart at all. You have forgotten everything I told you."
An idea flashed in Xiao Mo's mind, and he finally remembered the important point: "Ah, you almost died once."
Damn it, how could he forget that Xiaohong once told him that he was chopped up by an adoptee and buried in the soil during a certain adoption? He had seen wounds when he first helped Xiaohong take a bath, but later he helped Xiaohong repair them more times, and those wounds gradually disappeared.
"It's not almost, nor just once." Xue Lihong couldn't explain what it felt like, "Many Zerg can live for a period of time even if they are beheaded. Some are cut into several sections and can grow back on their own after a while. . Some were placed in a vacuum, boiled in hot water, or frozen in a freezer, and they were still alive when taken out. I used to be very weak, and I relied on Zerg genes to survive many times. But in the past If something like this happens to me, even if I survive, I will be weak for a long time. This time it's the complete opposite."
The young man whispered into his boss's ear: "This is my first time to make a cocoon. Your blood contains too much energy, and you have repaired me time and time again, prompting my genes to accelerate changes, and even mutate, until Completely stable. My cocooning process is the process of selecting my main genes, which is equivalent to physical rebirth."
"You said you chose your main genes?"
"Shhh? Don't let that guy hear you."
His Majesty the System: "I have heard it."
Xue Lihong hugged Xiao Mo and pouted: "It will become even more annoying after it can talk."
The system was angry, "You think I want to talk to you!"
Xiao Mo had a headache. He felt like a husband in the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and it was not good to help anyone. Alas, His Majesty can no longer communicate directly with him after entering the system. It is said that the induction line is not buried in his brain. It sounds very dangerous. No wonder His Majesty said that he would have been killed if he left before. Life, not now.
Knowing that Xiao Hong still has such a talent, Xiao Mo's nervousness disappears. From now on, he no longer has to worry about Xiao Hong being hacked to death... Bah!
Even if Xiaohong has such an ability, it doesn't mean that he really has the power of immortality, but his vitality will be more tenacious than ordinary people.
After that, Xue Lihong wrapped Xiao Mo around her chest with a big down quilt - she didn't use a sleeping bag because she was afraid of any emergencies. She summoned the giant wings formed by eight tentacles and flew to the Zhongshan base.
Xiao Mo noticed that Xue Lihong not only had a pair of wings, but also a pair of small wings under his ribs, which seemed to be used to balance the body? There are two long tentacles trailing behind the giant wings. Perhaps these are used to accelerate and change direction? Maybe for attack
Xiao Mo felt that his Xiaohong was becoming more and more mysterious.
In the wind and snow, neither of them could talk, so they could only fly with their heads down.
Maybe the big storm had just passed, maybe it was because of the fireballs falling from the sky, but in short, the flying birds that were often seen on weekdays suddenly disappeared, and not a single one was seen.
The whole world was silent. Apart from the sound of the wind, there was only the sound of Xiao Hong's flapping wings and their breathing.
On the way, they landed several times to rest and look for food. Xiao Mo also wanted to see if he could see anyone alive.
But there is a tragic scene of the apocalypse everywhere, not to mention people, even animals can hardly be seen.
Because there were too many collapsed buildings in the city and the heavy snow covered them, they had no way to find items. If they had time, they could still explore slowly, but what they lack now is time.
At first, Xiao Mo even said that he wanted to find skis to lighten Xiao Hong's burden, but Xue Lihong seemed to be flying smoothly, and also mastered the tricks of flying in the wind and snow. The flying time was getting longer day by day, and gradually, Xiao Mo also There is no need to find and make snowboards anymore.
On the evening of November 14th, a full week had passed since the big storm broke out on the night of the 6th.
The earth's power system has not yet been restored, and the heavy snow has not stopped.
Xiao Mo looked at the snowflakes in the sky and even had the illusion that the weather on earth might be like this in the future.
Xue Lihong put him on the ground, shook off the falling snow on his body, and folded his giant wings, "We will rest here tonight. According to the signs on the road, if there are no emergencies, we can go back tomorrow afternoon." Go to Zhongshan Base. Boss, take out that aircraft and I’ll go around the area.”
"Okay." This was their habit along the way. Even if Xiaohong had already observed it in the sky, every time he landed to take a rest, he would always explore the area again and try to eliminate any dangers.
And he would take advantage of this time to take out the Keno aircraft, which was already their temporary hotel, make a fire and prepare water.
Xue Lihong left, and Xiao Mo took out the aircraft and placed it on the snow. But as soon as he put it down, he noticed that the aircraft was sinking too fast and it seemed to be empty underneath
Xiao Mo didn't dare to delay and hurriedly put away the aircraft and planned to move to another place. But as soon as he put away the aircraft, his eyes were attracted by something below.
*
"... I hope that there will be love everywhere in heaven and earth, I hope that the flowers of peace will bloom in the world, I hope that there will be no pain and no sorrow... "
Xue Lihong stopped and Xiao Mo was standing in the snow and humming Seven Lotus Flowers softly.
He had heard this song before, and he didn't have much emotion at the time. But when he heard Xiao Mo singing softly, he suddenly felt that this song was particularly sad.
Xue Lihong walked to Xiao Mo and saw a funnel-shaped snow pit.
This mark was probably caused by Xiao Mo taking out the aircraft and placing it on the snow, but now the aircraft was nowhere to be seen, but more than a dozen corpses appeared under the snow pit.
The corpses were hugged together in a circle, with children in the middle and old people on the outermost, like several families.
These people may have taken shelter in the basement when a big storm came, or they may have gathered together to fight the extreme low temperature.
No matter what happened, these people are dead. Looking at their frozen figures, it seems that they were frozen to death without knowing it.
"You're back. Is it safe around here?"
"Um."
Xiao Mo seemed extremely tired, leaning gently on the tall young man's shoulder, quietly watching the snowflakes falling in the sky.
Xue Lihong hugged him.
It was very cold, but both of them seemed to have improved their ability to withstand the cold.
"You're sad."
"Um."
"There is always a way out."
"I can't think of a way."
"We are living one day at a time. If we can't survive, we will seize the spaceship and take our people away from the earth."
Xiao Mo smiled and stood up straight, "It's easy for you to say."
Xue Lihong patted him, as if conveying courage to him, "Of course it's simple, we have solved the biggest difficulty in leaving the earth, look."
Xiao Mo put away his sorrow and said, "You mean..."
"After repairing that spacecraft, we will have the tools to leave the earth. If this spacecraft cannot fly long distances, then we will grab the ones that can fly long distances. Since these alien visitors can come to the earth, they must have long-distance spaceships to go back. and roadmap.”
Xiao Mo's lips turned blue and his eyes were as bright as stars, "But now it seems that all electrical energy cannot be used, including the energy used by the spacecraft."
Xue Lihong held his cold hand and said with certainty: "This is only temporary. You forget that there will be thick fog only when those light spots come out, and when the thick fog dissipates, everything will return to normal."
Xiao Mo looked up at the sky and said excitedly: "You mean the lightning cloud will disappear?"
"It may not disappear completely, but according to the characteristics of dense fog that come and go, if the light spots really make their home in the sky, then the lightning clouds will probably come and go. Maybe over time, this will become the most populous place on the earth. One of the common celestial phenomena." Xue Lihong analyzed.
"Then the sun will come out? Humanity will not perish? Great! No! What about those alien developers in outer space?" Seeing Xiaohong's puzzled look, Xiao Mo explained all the system's speculations .
Xue Lihong pondered slightly, "This can be seen from two points. First, developers still want to develop the earth and are reluctant to give up this playground. Second, developers focus on light spots and capture light spots as the third point. First priority.”
"What do you say?" Xiao Mo asked anxiously.
"Stop punishing yourself, take out the aircraft and let's go in and say, it's freezing outside."
Xiao Mo smiled and hurriedly took out the Jino aircraft.
Xue Lihong pulled him into the main cabin of the aircraft and lit the stove inside. The aircraft quickly became warm.
The two of them sat barefoot on the sofa with a thick velvet quilt, feeling the warmth coming from the stove, and didn't speak for a while.
"Don't do that next time, you make me feel like you want to jump down and die with them." There was a little blame in Xue Lihong's voice.
"Nonsense! I just..." Xiao Mo scratched his nose in embarrassment, "Anyone will feel something when they see a scene like that, okay? I'm worried about my family and my teammates in the team. I'm afraid they..."
Xiao Mo gave himself a slap in the face to prevent himself from thinking the worst.
Xue Lihong grabbed his hand and looked at him with disapproval.
Xiao Mo was embarrassed, "Are you hungry? I'll make something hot. You continue what you just said." He was worried about the future of all mankind just now, but now that he calms down and thinks about it, it's quite ridiculous.
Seeing that Xiao Mo was no longer affected by those corpses, Xue Lihong relaxed her body and leaned on the sofa and said: "Let's talk about the second point first. The developer focuses on light spots and mainly captures them. Then even if the lightning cloud disappears, Those developers won't be able to easily enter the Earth because they'll worry about the light escaping or disappearing due to something they do. That's possible, right?"
Xiao Mo was stunned when he heard a cold young man's voice coming from the bracelet: "Yes. No one knows the formation and living environment of elemental life, as well as what kind of environment they like. If the developers really focus on the light spots , they will not easily change the earth's environment, which includes all living things on the earth. They will try to maintain the status quo until they find a way to capture and utilize light points."
Xue Lihong, "So if it's the second point, we can at least buy a certain amount of time. And this certain amount of time is the time for the earth to breathe and develop. This time is destined to not be very long, and to what extent the earth can develop, let's not start with it. To say whether we can compete with the developers of the Helusher system, we must at least have the ability to escape from the earth."
Xiao Mo's brows furrowed into knots, "It is said that Earth's technology has reached a bottleneck and it is difficult to break through. Even if not, if you look at the Earth now, it will probably take many years just to restore the original technological level, let alone …”
Xue Lihong interrupted him: "So it's up to you, boss."
"ha?!"
Xue Lihong said to him very seriously: "Whether the earth's technology can develop at a rapid speed in the future, and whether the people on earth can break out of the universe and escape, it all depends on you, boss."
Xiao Mo was so frightened that he dropped the can he just took out to the ground.
