Chapter 112: Escape from the Red City

I felt my body move rapidly, turning into a pile of data interspersed with various data, all kinds of sounds echoing in my ears, and the wind blowing around me...... It seemed like a long time, and it seemed like there was no delay at all, and in an instant, it was all over.

I slowly opened my eyes and found myself in a large pentagram teleportation array.

In front of him was a tall castle, with gusts of pine waves coming from the mountains not far away, the sky occasionally flying over the ironclad dragon formation, and a cool wind blowing from the west.

"I, I'm free?" I stretched out my hand and felt the breeze.

"Turns out, welcome to Dirkcula!" A tall and mighty man, dressed in black, with a black cloak and a black mask, said.

"This is Lord Sisi of our Blackwing Legion." Kay introduced me to this.

"You are...... Sisi? I asked.

"Yes, you can call me Sisi-sama." Secy stood there motionless, unbelievable under his mask.

"Okay, Secy."

"Thank you."

"You're welcome, Sisi."

"Turns out, I know you have a lot of questions, excuse me." Sisi said.

I thought for a moment and asked, "Why did you save me?" ”

Sisi replied: "Our monarch noticed you a long time ago, remember the voice of our monarch in the final?" ”

That's right, at the last moment of the final, a voice did break through the barrier in the arena and said to me to cut down.

"Because you admire me, you save me? No other intentions? I continued to ask.

"Of course there is...... Turns out, do you want to be a glorious Dark Knight? Sisi asked me rhetorically.

I laughed and bent over with a smile, "I'm sorry, I really can't associate Glory with the Dark Knight. ”

"What should that glory belong to?"

I raised my arms and shouted, "Of course, the knights who belong to our bright side, and those warriors who fight for world peace. ”

Sisi remained unmoved: "Fighting for peace? Aren't we fighting for peace? ”

I thought for a moment: "Huh...... The new story is called Invasion of Darkness, right, the war you provoked. ”

Sisi said coldly: "Hmph, that's right, we provoked the war, and we did it for the sake of real world peace." I ask you, if there was no war, wouldn't you kill each other? Do you blame our dark Ones for all this, for all of your armies, for the novice villages, for the slaughter of creatures, and for all the fighting? ”

I said, "Secy, you can't say that, light and darkness have been incompatible since ancient times, and besides, it's just a game, and you've been put in to enrich the game." If a game really comes to peace...... I'm afraid no one is playing anymore. I admit that I am talking about peace as nonsense, but the glory probably belongs only to the bright side. ”

Probably what I said stimulated the AI in front of me, it's just a game, and they're just NPCs.

Secy's body finally shook a little, and he exclaimed, "Yes, it's just a game!" But isn't life just a game? I don't know what's the difference between being here and being 'out there'? In the history of your human development, haven't you also come through one war after another? Glorious? Hahahaha, the word glory belongs only to war, and it is glorious to fight for one's beliefs! If you have to distinguish between good and evil, light and darkness. I tell you, you also have the blood of sin on your blades, blood, yes, glory with blood, with killing! ”

Secy became excited when he spoke, and he stretched out his hand and pulled out his heavy sword and raised it to the sky: "Bybloodandhonorweserve!" ”

Cay stood next to him, looking straight at Seci, the hollow holes in his mask glowing green. He also drew his heavy sword and pointed it at the sky: "Bybloodandhonorweserve!" ”

I was speechless, he was right, maybe there is no glory in this world. But......

I said slowly, "I am a knight of the Light Side, and I must defend our Light Side's territory. ”

"Good, you know you're a knight." Ceci nodded: "Then do you remember the knight's oath?" ”

"Of course I do!" I said out loud.

"What is the second article of knightly faith!"

"Iwillbebraveagainstthestrong."

"What if you choose the bright side, which really represents**? Will you be able to keep your beliefs? ”

"No......"

"Won't? How did you end up in jail? ”

"Framed!"

"I was framed by someone from the bright side!"

"But most of them are still kind!"

"Really? What is the seventh rule of knightly faith? ”

"Iwillhelpmybrotherknight."

"Hahahaha, is there still your knight brother on the bright side? They have long forgotten that there is a knight profession in the world, right? In their eyes, there is only killing, and if the profession is strong, they will choose whichever profession they choose, they are selfish and despicable, they only care about themselves and never think about others. Why are so many players, and you are the only one who chooses the knight? And our dark legions, but knights everywhere? Because you are selfish, cruel, cold, rude, insensitive, impetuous, mercenary......"

"We still have hope, and we still have love......"

"Please, you've watched too many soap operas, don't we have love? Do I have to tell you that I secretly like Layla in Finetown? Don't you see that our eyes are also full of love and hope? ”

I looked at Secy's gaze carefully and shook my head: "No...... Hollow and godless, I can't even see the of my eyes. ”

With a "bang", Ceci and Kay fell to the ground with a bang.

Truth be told, what Sisi said is the truth, and in the game, it is easier for people to show their inner self as they are. An honest man who goes to work on time every day at work may be a lewd man who likes to peep around in the game. A kind person who never lies may be a liar who lies a lot in the game, and a good girl who never swears may be a violent woman with a foul mouth in the game.

Humans are probably the most hypocritical animals, in reality, they live in a coat, they need too much cover-up, they act every day. Once you enter the virtual world, you completely expose your true nature. According to incomplete statistics, the rate of normal people in the game is one in a million in reality. At the beginning of the century, when the Internet was just popularized, there was also a period of simple times when real names were used as screen names, and everyone was polite and kind, but now I am afraid that few people's screen names are their own names, and few words and deeds on the Internet are the same as in reality.

Some people say that this is a depravity, a kind of regression.

But in my opinion, it's a step forward...... People have finally revealed their true nature.

You can't try to make people as hypocritical in the virtual world as they are in reality, and this kind of peace is really not real peace.

As the saying goes, like gathers people in groups, and it's clear that in the virtual world, the evil players are far greater than the good ones...... However, I always feel a little inexplicable about the sudden defection of the light side and joining the forces of the dark side.

Probably preconceived.

I was born on the bright side, so naturally I want to protect the interests of the bright side.

I lowered my head and said, "Ceci, I'm sorry, I can't promise you for the time being. ”

Ceci also heard what I meant, I still have hope in the light side, I don't fully understand the dark legion yet, I want to think about it.

"Well, it seems. We won't force you. Lord Sauron has said that sooner or later you will fight alongside us, if you are a true knight. Secsi paused and continued, "Tell me where you want to go now, and I'll let Kay send you there." But you have to remember that you are now a prison escapee, and no matter which main city you appear in, you will be wanted by the people of the Light Side and return to prison again. Only after your sentence has expired will you return to normal. ”

I looked up and saw that I was red, red dripping with blood.

I smiled at Secy, "Don't worry, Sisi. I happen to know of a place where people like me are welcome. ”

Secy nodded, turned and strode away, her black cloak fluttering in the wind, and I suddenly noticed that Secy walked with such integrity......

"Say, where am I sending you?"

"Taga City!"

"Okay, I'll look it up...... Well, the 117th main city, ready to turn out. ”

Kay recited a spell and activated the teleportation circle.

I felt my body move rapidly, turning into a pile of data interspersed with various data, all kinds of sounds echoing in my ears, and the wind blowing around me...... It seemed like a long time, and it seemed like there was no delay at all, and in an instant, it was all over.

I opened my eyes and found myself in the square of the Red City, surrounded by thieves walking around, some of them sitting on the ground and drinking spirits. Everyone has a blood-red name. No one looked at me, I was like one of the thieves.

Haha, that's a good feeling. I didn't feel like a fugitive at all, but it was like I was back in my hometown, and I walked around the Red City. I haven't been here once since the Helian siblings took over the place at my behest. I walked down the street in the direction of the lord's mansion, and saw that everything was in order, with shops, trade unions, and churches. There are people in every organization who are eager to serve you, and these are players, not NPCs. In the Adventurers' Guild, I found that the thieves all ganged up here, and found a team to go out and rob together. Of course, there are also tasks to do, and the thieves also need to level up, and they often choose a place far away to kill monsters and level up.

In the Adventurers' Guild, I overheard a conversation between two people.

"Red, that monster named Sea Serpent is really fierce, it should be level 30 today."

"Level 30? The day before yesterday, when we took him in the 123rd regiment, he was already brought to level 33, and today is the seventh ** regiment, and it is estimated that he is almost level 40 now. ”

"Level 40...... God, I'm afraid no one can beat him now, if he played this game one step earlier, then what would be the matter with the tournament and the brotherhood. ”

"Then I have to scold you, the brotherhood is the oldest of his mother, even if they take the first place and get the artifact, how many people admit that they are the first in the world? At least we in Red Famous City are not convinced, and those referees are obviously directed towards them, as well as the bastards in Lanfeng City, who framed our original brother and put them in prison. ”

"Rhett, I heard that it was very interesting, and the idea of our establishment of the Red City was still thought up by him for the eldest sister."

"Well, you newcomer don't know, I was fortunate enough to see the original side, when we occupied this city, the eldest sister was the first to take the lead in jumping down from the sky, and the brothers killed the one who was happy......"

"Heavenly?"

"Ah, that's a long story, we ran into them at the edge of the desert back then......"

Hearing this, I don't have to listen to those old stories again, but the name of the sea serpent sparked my idea. Sea snakes also play games? And to get here? No, that's not his style, when did he actually start playing games? I've got to find him!

Thinking of this, I hurriedly left the Adventurer's Guild and strode towards the City Lord's Mansion.

……

"Alas, I said Rhett, you said, it's fun to listen to, it turns out that you fought with the second master, and then?"

And then ...... Wait, the guy who walked out just now seems to be the original! ”

"Huh?!"
