Chapter 51: They're Players Too
"Actually, we used to be the same as you humans. Later, in order to resist the Scourge Legion, the ancestor prayed to the Scorpion goddess Severis MirΓ³ to send a divine grace to transform the people, so that they could finally survive the Scourge. β
Kelly Lun shook her legs comfortably and turned her head to look at Xiao Li: "The lower limbs of human beings determine that in running and sprinting, you must use your hands to maintain balance. β
"You're right." Xiao Li's mind flashed the scene of the Sand Scorpion Legion charging, and when they charged, it did not affect the moves in their hands at all.
Xiao Li tried to save some face for the humans: "Don't forget, humans have mounts. β
Kelly Lun shook her head: "How can a mount have its own body and do whatever it wants?" β
ββ¦β¦ Well, in terms of functionality, you're in perfect shape. β
Kelly Lun pursed her lips and smiled: "After all, it's a transformation from the goddess." β
When he heard the word "transformation" again, Xiao Li's eyes narrowed slightly. He knew that the second dimension was that there was no "God."
If I had to say yes, it would be...... System.
And the system is just a collection of rules, to put it more colloquially, the system is code, artificial intelligence - what kind of god is it?
Xiao Li pondered and asked, "Then your god, Severis MirΓ³, is it from this world?" β
He asked because there was no evidence that such a god existed in this world.
Kelly Lenn shook her head: "Of course not." β
Xiao Li's pupils shrank suddenly!
What do you mean by of course not?
As the king of understanding in the second dimension.
Xiao Li knows the logic of trying to prove something in the second dimension - if you want to prove it, you must first agree with it.
For example, if Xiao Li wants to know what this Scorpion Goddess is all about, then he must agree that the Scorpio Goddess exists, and as Kelly Lun said, she has transformed the ancestors of the Scorpion Man.
Blind suspicion will only lead to the interruption of all clues.
And now, Kelly Lun is so naturally honest that the goddess Scorpio is not in this world!
There are only two possible reasons for this outcome.
One, the divine power of the goddess Severis MirΓ³ can travel through planes and even dimensions.
Second, the Scorpion people are not the natives of this world.
Whatever the reason, it surpassed the experience that Xiao Li had gained from his previous life.
So he took a deep breath and looked at Kelly Lun intently: "Where is the Scorpion Goddess?" Or are you like us...... Not the natives of this world? β
"Because of God, we have been able to preserve the oldest memories."
"Although those memories are broken, we can still know that we do not belong in this world." Kelly Lenn said slowly, calmly.
A light flashed in Xiao Li's eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "Then where did you come from?" β
Kelly Len smiled, "It's remarkable that we can remember that we're from somewhere else, and that our enemy is the Undead Legion." β
The implication is that man, your requirements are too high.
But the light in Xiao Li's eyes became stronger and stronger.
A guess so bold that he could scarcely imagine came to mind.
Coming from the end of the world, he certainly doesn't think of the second dimension as a "game" anymore.
In fact, from the moment he stepped on the ladder, he regarded the second dimension as a human trial, a place to elevate himselfβall for the opening of the abyss ten years later, and the end of the world.
Xiao Li remembered very well that when the end came, he was locking himself in the Time Canyon to prepare the Spell Secret Archive. And when he came out, he found that all his friends were offline.
And when he also went offline, those demons that usually only appear in the game have spread all over the earth.
All the weapons of the earth, they are ineffective.
Only skills can inflict damage on them.
And he, because of the sacrifices of those brave bigwigs, became the last great magician.
At that time, the last text message Liu Jing left for him was the sentence he sent to Arco.
Even if he didn't see it with his own eyes, Xiao Li could still feel the tragedy and determination when the human race used all means, including nuclear bombs, to no avail, and finally faced those abyssal demons with flesh and blood.
At that time, Xiao Li, he held the Space Codex in his left hand and the Heart of Time in his right hand. After rising to the skies under the desperate gaze of the last survivor and destroying a Demon Lord for the cost of nine essence scrolls, he was impaled through the chest by the Dreadlord's Dark Spear.
But...... What if he didn't leave the second dimension?
Or rather, the humans of the second dimension are all left inside!
Will he be forced off the line again?
If not kicked off the line, then humans ...... And what will become?
Xiao Li stood up and stared into Kelly Len's eyes.
"Do you remember the end of the world?"
Kelly Len's answer didn't disappoint him: "Being able to preserve the little memory is already the result of divine grace. You can't expect too much. β
After a few seconds of silence, Xiao Li continued to ask, "What about the Flame Demon?" β
"It seems to have bothered it since the dungeon was built, but it never really woke up, and only sent some minions to find trouble - so the coalition forces thousands of years ago didn't participate, just because they were afraid that it would wake up suddenly." Kelly Lun put down the teacup and looked at Xiao Li: "What's more, we are not from this continent...... They also don't fit our aesthetic. β
Although he didn't know the history of the hundred races, he had seen dozens of NPC races, and Xiao Li knew that except for the sand scorpion people, the others were bipedal beasts.
Truly...... The aesthetic of the sand scorpion people is unique.
Xiao Li accepted this reason.
Xiao Li turned the empty teacup in silence. Bacaron, who was on the side, was very clever and poured him tea.
Kelly Lun is not good at chatting, Xiao Li is silent, and she looks at Xiao Li quietly.
There is no doubt that Xiao Li does not match her aesthetics.
But a kind and interesting soul is more likable than appearances.
"Kelly Len, that fire demon...... How many levels are there? No, how strong is it? β
Kelly Len's expression became serious.
"No one has ever seen it, but its strongest minions, it will take six of us warriors to defeat together."
"What about the mage?" Xiao Li pointed at himself: "What about the mage of that strength I was in the palace yesterday?" β
Kelly Lun recalled the lightning and snow, and subconsciously pursed her lips.
"I can't judge exactly, but it should be fine."
That is, high-level mages can handle elite minions. The corresponding level is level 50. According to the setting that the boss is ten levels stronger than the elite minions......
Then this fire demon is a level 60 boss, which just corresponds to the strongest state of the Sand Scorpion King - it is the strongest celestial group including several major commanders and six priests.
But...... The Scorpion King has already been served by himself.
"It seems that there is only a long-term view."
Xiao Li squinted, and he temporarily put aside his plan to find the Flame Demon.
His idea was that since the only Sand Scorpion people who had "memories" could not remember history, or that their memories had been "erased". Then the old natives like the fire demons should be able to remember.
After all, it's an evil boss.
There is no possibility of "player".
That's right, Xiao Li's speculation came to a conclusion that was difficult for him to accept - the so-called NPC race is the same as humans...... Gamer!
It's just that they failed.
Their world was destroyed, and those who remained in the second dimension became NPCs.
Xiao Li got up and rubbed Bakaron's head.
"Boy, go."
Bacaron, who had been waiting impatiently, started with a catapult and rushed to the goal in an instant.
"Sister! Good bye! β
Kelly Len: "......"
Xiao Li: "......"
"Then I'll give him to you."
"Don't worry. Also, the Fire Demon will be handed over to me. β
Xiao Li raised his index finger.
"At most a year, I'll call it Daddy."
Kelly Lun smiled.
