Chapter XXVII

Leaving the northern suburbs, Bai Lin casually went to a shopping mall and changed into casual clothes.

When paying, Bai Lin found that he didn't have much money left in his bank card, and his original savings were not much, and it was also expected that the currency could only be used in and out these days.

He didn't worry about the currency, because the role of the currency is not very big for him now, and he was worried about other things.

The increasingly powerful demon Garner, the replaced left arm, the stats that are far lower than those of other level 1 players, and the quests that are much more difficult than those of ordinary players.

These things were like a mess, which made Bai Lin feel stressed and anxious.

"You may need to take a break." Alley said with concern.

Bai Lin didn't answer her words and asked:

"What is the progress of my mission right now?"

“3%。” Alley replied truthfully.

"Qin Ze and Wei Lan sent me a message saying that their mission has been carried out at about 10%." Bai Lin rubbed his hair and said:

"Shall I go to the black market now?"

"Bai Lin, they are second-level players. Much better than you. You don't have to compete with them for speed. Alley explained.

"It's not about speed." Bai Lin shook his head and said:

"I can rest, but this city won't, inspired by the black market, every second, innocent people can be killed, the teacher asked me to be Nishizawa's night watchman, it's my responsibility."

"Looking at those eight headstones, I wondered if if I could go faster, would the headstones become seven, or even six. It's entirely possible! ”

Alley was silent for a moment, then said:

"Bai Lin, you don't have to let yourself bear so much. It's not you who is wrong. ”

Bai Lin said seriously:

"Alley, I wouldn't have thought that before. But with great power comes great responsibility. No matter what I think about it, if I can be faster, it will definitely kill fewer people, that's an established fact. ”

Bai Lin is not a virgin, because the virgin is just talking empty words and can't do anything substantial, but Bai Lin is different, he is a first-level player, and he really has the ability to save many people.

It's not just him, all the players in the middle gate of the Martial Pole Academy are doing this day and night.

At this moment, he completely understood what Hao Enthusiasm had said to him.

"Being a player is not only a sign of ability, but also a sign of more responsibility."

Wei Lan told him that she and Qin Ze had started taking the "Deep Sleep Potion".

Thinking of Qin Ze, who looked lazy and couldn't fight for anything, Bai Lin made up his mind in his heart and said:

"Let's go to the black market now!"

Bai Lin knew that he was weak, and he also knew that Garner might control his body again after being injured, but he also knew very well that Ghana would only get stronger and stronger as time went by, and it was useless to escape.

Only before his body is completely devoured by Garner, he becomes stronger and stronger, and there is a slight possibility of breaking free from fate.

Alley no longer persuaded, and replied:

"Good!"

Half an hour later, Bai Lin came to the location of the first black market prompted in the stalker flakes.

It is very close to Bai Lin's residence, and it is a large private hospital called "Kandi Hospital".

Soul chips suggest that the black market is located on the third basement floor of Building 3 of Kandi Hospital.

Bai Lin entered the gate and walked in the direction of Building Three.

At this moment, Alley's voice rang out:

"Bai Lin, Wuji Academy just sent a message that Vice Dean Qing Lan passed away yesterday, and his memorial service will be held in 30 minutes on the square at the entrance of the Temple of Prayer, do you want to attend?"

Bai Lin stopped, he didn't know Vice Dean Qinglan, speaking of which, he didn't know much about the high-level of Wuji Academy, and he didn't even know what the dean's name was.

At this time, the system prompted Hao Enthusiasm to send a message.

"Bai Lin, I'm in Wuji, look for me in the office after the funeral, I have something to explain to you."

Bai Lin immediately replied:

"Okay, teacher!"

He said to Alley:

"Teacher Hao asked me to go back, let's teleport! Wait until you get back to continue the mission. ”

"It needs to be in a place where no one is around, and there is no outside surveillance." Alley reminded.

Bai Lin thought for a while, so he asked the location of the pedestrian toilet on the road......

Entering Wuji's sentient beings gate, Bai Lin glanced away, there was almost no one on the playground, and there was no figure in the classroom.

There were scattered students and teachers on the road, dressed in black and walking in the same direction, looking very depressed.

Bai Lin guessed that it should be because of Vice President Qinglan's death.

He felt that the casual clothes on his body were not suitable for the funeral, so he went to the shopping mall inside Wuji and bought a slightly solemn black suit.

Under Alley's guidance, Bai Lin came to the square where the funeral was held.

The square covers a large area, the ground is covered with dark granite, and countless students and teachers in black dresses stand on top of the square.

Their expressions were solemn and solemn, no one spoke, and all eyes were on the square.

Bai Lin followed their gaze and saw that it was a three-story circular hall with heavy eaves, and on the plaque on it were three gilded characters written in the Chu script - "Prayer Heaven Palace".

The prayer hall is built on a three-story white marble platform surrounded by a 6-meter-high white stone carved railing.

On the third floor of the high platform, there stood an old woman in mourning clothes with deep eye sockets, she looked around the audience with a sad expression, and slowly spoke:

"On the evening of September 26, the murderer intercepted and killed Qinglan and his party in the western suburbs of Kyoto, who were transporting precious experimental materials. We don't know any information about this interception, Qinglan and his party have no bones, and even their Alley didn't leave any clues before they were destroyed. ”

After saying this, the audience was solemn, and some people in front of the square, who were also wearing mourning clothes, couldn't help but cry in a low voice.

The old woman continued:

"I'm a member of Qinglan's research group, Chu Li. Qing Lan often said in his life that if he died one day, don't write his name into the Temple of Prayer, and don't make a noise, let him leave quietly. The reason why I informed you was that it was arranged by the dean. In yesterday's interception, the people who died in our Wuji Academy, in addition to Qing Lan, there were also more than a dozen researchers from the research group and a student team. Although Qinglan is the vice president, he is nothing special, so he will not hold a memorial service for him alone. The deceased is gone, and there is no talk of the past. We Wuji people never look back at the past, only look ahead. Bringing you together today actually has other more important things to say. ”

"Qinglan is the leader of our research group, and since the beginning of the Heng Dynasty, our research group has been studying the "antidote". ”

The people in the audience were a little curious about the "antidote" that the old woman said, and they whispered about it.

Seeing this, the old woman explained:

"By antidote I mean the potion that could save the apostles."

Hearing this, Bai Lin's eyes widened, his heart pounded, and he pricked up his ears to listen carefully.

"Everyone knows that the apostles are incurable, and that one day they will become demons and lose their personality. And the player's blood will slow down this process. But have you ever wondered why? Many people were ordinary people before they became players, so why didn't the blood have this effect at that time? Also, why do players gain a lot of experience and points for killing an Apostle? ”

This contradiction is very absurd, as if it was deliberately designed by people with ulterior motives. This contradiction pits the player and the apostle against two equally powerful factions, hunting each other and hating each other......"

"We must not exterminate the apostles with blind hatred as other academies. In fact, as far as I know, almost every apostle lived with pain and guilt all the time. One out of every five apostles chose to commit suicide...... Leaving aside their apostles, they were wretched people...... There are also good people and bad people among them, they are our compatriots, and they need our help! ”

Speaking of this, the people of the square nodded silently in agreement.

Bai Lin also respected the research group led by Vice President Qinglan because of these words.

He was an apostle, and he knew that the apostles sometimes had no control over their actions.

Chu Li took a deep breath and continued:

"Just the day before yesterday, the hard work of our research group for ten years paid off, and we developed the first antidote. It can isolate parasitic demons from the host's body......"

There was an uproar on the field, Bai Lin's heart beat faster, and hope was ignited in his heart for the first time.

But after a while, Chu Li lowered her head, sighed, and said:

"But just yesterday, the antidote and almost all the research data were lost in the interception, and all the researchers in our research group except me were killed in the interception...... And with my current ability, I can't develop a second antidote on my own......"

Hearing this, Bai Lin sighed deeply, extremely disappointed in his heart.

Garner has now been able to control his body for a day, and he is frustrated that his left hand has been replaced by Garner, and the flame of hope that has just been ignited has been extinguished.

"But we won't lose hope." Chu Li raised her head, swept away the previous haze, and said with an excited expression:

"With young people, there is hope, and the dean ordered me to reorganize this research group. I know you're all geniuses from all over the Middle State, and you all passed the test when you came. ”

"I need players in the middle court who have reached 210 or more intelligence points after "super advancement", or students who have reached 140 or more in the intelligence test of the sentient beings to join. It can be dangerous to study this subject, and I want you to think carefully before making a decision, I can't promise you anything, but, I can assure you that you will never die before me......"

After Chu Li finished speaking, someone began to raise their hands in the huge square.

Chu Li stepped down from the three-story platform and registered one by one......

Bai Lin was very interested in this subject, but his intelligence did not even reach the standard of 140 for non-players, so he was really embarrassed to raise his hand......

It took ten years to study last time, and this time I don't know when the results will come out, and Bai Lin doesn't know if he can fight Ghana until that time.

A light rain began to fall in the sky, and the others dispersed. Bai Lin didn't stay for a long time, and walked into the middle door with a heavy heart.
