Chapter 16: The Land of Nothingness
Roshan's victory was like a shot of adrenaline for countless psychologically shady people and ancient "keyboard warriors", and the victory was followed by a twisted carnival, including most of the people who had signed up for Xiang Yu's team before.
The image that Xiang Yu established before was only destroyed in one move, in fact, these people are not to blame, since ancient times, the attention of the crowd has been quite inattentive.
Let's take the simplest example: Today, a male star cheats, and most netizens who like gossip will definitely greet the eighteenth generation of the male star's ancestors, and even spread rumors to attack the parties. Then the heat of the incident continued to ferment until the male star was banned, of course, the premise of all this is that there is no other incident to save the scene in a short period of time.
When some celebrities whose personalities are about to collapse encounter related crises, they often choose to find some more powerful paparazzi to buy more exciting and eye-catching news to attract the attention and attention of the masses.
When the negative news related to yourself is almost deleted, run out to do public welfare, apologize, or find some irrelevant reasons to excuse yourself. After such an operation, it is time to make money, and the endorsement has no impact, which is really a second.
Three days after Xiang Yu disappeared, because an old sow of a family in the village gave birth to thirty cubs, in an instant, everyone's attention shifted to this family. Interviewers, visitors, seekers, pig stealers, vegetarians, small animal protection volunteers, and other crowds of people who love to join in the crowd have all popped up and surrounded the villagers' homes.
When a woodcutter was chatting with his companions, he accidentally thought of Xiang Yu, so he said casually:
"I don't know how King Xiang is now?"
"Ah, which Xiang King? Isn't it only the King of Han now?" replied the woodcutter's companion.
"It's Xiang Yu, who is trying to pull out the mountains and conquer the world, have you been to see the sow again recently, so you don't even remember King Xiang. The woodcutter scoffed.
"Whatever, it's interesting that is the most important thing, what is there to pay attention to in an overly angry overlord. ”
Soon, the conversation between the woodcutter and his partner soon moved on to a different topic that was completely unrelated.
As for Xiang Yu, after falling off the cliff, he did not fall directly into the river at the bottom of the mountain, but fell halfway up the mountain. Halfway up the cliff, there was a small protruding platform, and after Xiang Yu landed on the platform, because of the excessive impact, he fainted directly, and the bones in his body were shattered.
When Kobo opened his eyes again, he found himself in a completely dark space, absolutely unable to see his fingers.
"What is this place?"
"Ding, there is no space. ”
"What is the name of a bird in the void, and what is a place where dogs don't poop?"
"Ding, be careful with your wording. ”
"Okay, excuse me, dear system, could you please tell me what the hell this is?"
Cobo felt a sharp pain in his chest, and coughed for a long time before he recovered.
Sure enough, what the system said was not wrong at all, the pain in Xiang Yu's body was completely transmitted to Ke Bo's body, Ke Bo was in great pain, but he seemed to feel safe and sound. There is a strange tipping point between pain and no pain, and it is precisely because of this that Ke Bo in reality will not suddenly die when Xiang Yu's body is so seriously injured.
"Ding, to put it simply, you lost, and you lost completely. The system's answer was cold and ruthless, the words were clear and emotional.
"So, the mission failed, right?" Ke Bo desperately wanted to return to Xiang Yu's body, or the real world, after all, being in such a dark environment is easy to make people depressed, because you never know if it will be your dream lover or your nightmare standing in front of you in the next second.
"Ding, since Xiang Yu is not dead, the task is not over. ”
"Then why did I end up in this dark place?"
"Ding, because whether Xiang Yu can survive or not depends entirely on your performance in the Void Land. ”
"Let's put this aside first, I just want to know, why is this Roshan so strong, or how is Xiang Yu weak?"
"Ding, do you usually play games?"
The system's inquiry made Kobo feel inexplicable, but soon Kobo understood the system's intention of asking. In the words of the system, just like League of Legends, there is no strongest hero, only the strongest summoner. If Xiang Yu is replaced to operate Xiang Yu, no matter how bad it is, it is estimated that he will be able to fight with Roshan.
According to the system, Xiang Yu is now lying on the cliff, in a coma, dying, and in order to save Xiang Yu, Ke Bo must break through the current void.
"Break through the void", this is all the prompts given by the system, which means that there are no prompts, for any normal person, if you are trapped in this kind of place, the first thought must be to get out of here quickly.
"Hey, big brother system, can you give more hints?"
Kobo's plea went unanswered as if he had fallen into a black hole.
"Can you please don't be so ruthless, at least give me a response, or give me some hints! It's so dark that there's no movement at all, and I'm going to be scared to death, understand?"
Suddenly, the classic soundtrack that often appears in horror movies sounds, and Kobo is speechless on the spot. The system is like a scumbag, not only throwing Kobo in a completely unfamiliar and terrible environment, but also sprinkling a handful of salt on Kobo's wounds, like stealing carbon in the snow, without any reason.
Once again, Kobo was in a state of cluelessness, and Kobo remembers the last time he had the same feeling was when he was repeatedly rejected for a job, and the rest of his life seemed to be plunged into darkness. Now, unlike that, Kobo is in the midst of darkness in the truest sense of the word.
Through the touch of the soles of his feet, Kobo could clearly feel that the ground was not very flat, but it was very hard, and this message gave Kobo some comfort: at least the ground would not suddenly collapse and fall into further danger.
Boundless darkness is always conjured up with some mess, and it's all something negative. Perhaps, it is precisely because of this reason that all kinds of horror films will choose more dark scenes to create a terrifying atmosphere and achieve a certain effect.
In fact, many people don't know that what people fear is not darkness, but derivatives of darkness. Memories, associations, nightmares, emotions, etc.
As for the darkness itself, there is nothing wrong with it, it just brings all the colors of light together.
"Ahem. ”
The pain came again, like a pain switch in the body, which was pressed from time to time, but there was no solution, so I could only bite the bullet next to it, like bronze against the king, and I had no power to fight back.
Kobo squatted down in place, holding his stomach with his hands to relieve the pain. To add insult to injury, while the pain is not gone, hunger pangs follow, making it unbearable.
I don't know how long it took, but Kebo was too hungry, and the pain in his body was finally relieved. Kobo's immediate priority now is to find a breakthrough in order to find a way out of this void.
It's really a black batch...... Cobo complained inwardly, as for the second half of the sentence, it was inconvenient to show fragrant words.
If it were so dark at night, it is estimated that most people around the world would have insomnia.
"What to do, what to do, what to do!" Kobo said three times in a row, and one was louder than the other, and after a moment, Kobo, who was about to fall into despair, heard the echo of his own words.
Killing Kebo would not have thought that the "spitting" that he was most accustomed to provided Kebo with a breakthrough at a critical moment, and this breakthrough was "Echo".
According to the physics principles learned in junior high school, the speed at which sound travels through the air is 340 meters per second, and after taking a deep breath, Kobo screamed loudly, and then counted silently in his mind until he heard the echo.
As a qualified junior high school student, Kebo estimated the location of the closest "wall" in front of him, and after trying several directions in succession, Kebo chose the nearest direction and decided to go to the dark end to find out.
Kobo moved slowly, up to the length of his foot at a time, beware of traps or obstacles on the ground.
After the same movement lasted for about a few minutes, Kobo finally felt the position of the "wall" on his toes.
There was a strange smell in the air, familiar, yet very unfamiliar.
With the mentality of "fighting", I am not afraid of touching scorpions, pythons, or spiders and toads and other messy reptiles.
After fumbling around the wall for a moment, Kobo felt a hole half a head above him, and with it, a sticky feel. Obviously, this is not the monster's saliva, which gives Kobo a lot of peace of mind and does not have to worry about being suddenly consumed by a huge monster.
Putting it to his mouth and sniffing, Ke Bo smelled a smell similar to honey, and suddenly the brainless Ke Bo even licked the sticky substance on the palm of his hand with the tip of his tongue, if nothing else, it should be beeswax.
In ancient times, the technology of making candles was not mature, and there were no conditions to make beeswax, so the ancients would choose beeswax extracted from beehives and made into candles for lighting.
As he was worrying about how to use the beeswax, a bulge came from Kobo's crotch, of course, it was not an obscene bulge, but the lighter in Kobo's pocket fell through the hole in the pocket into the middle of the two layers of fabric of his pants, and then slipped into the middle of the crotch.
With a lot of effort, Kobo finally got out of his lighter pants. Kobo never smokes, and the reason why he keeps a lighter in his pocket is because he always fantasizes about the end of the world one day, and if he carries a lighter with him, he will have a better chance of winning in the face of the end times.
"Rub it. ”
A faint flame came out of the lighter, and Kobo carefully stretched the lighter to the place where the beeswax was, and the next scene made Kobo instantly excited.
The ignited beeswax instantly ignites all the beeswax in the grooves, and the beeswax in the grooves in the wall is ignited in turn, followed by the second layer, and then the third layer...... After burning seven layers of grooves one after another, seven rings of fire formed on the surrounding walls, and the entire scene was instantly illuminated.
When Kebo saw such a scene, he began to stutter a little when he spoke:
"This ...... This is so fucking handsome, isn't it?"
