Chapter 96: Lucky or Unlucky

Rococo didn't care how the players would react to this incident, and after a good night's sleep, the next morning, Rococo left the small hotel where she was staying, and walked the streets of Lancarlos as if nothing happened.

No one would have thought that in the amazing event last night when the city lord Farou commander Dicha Plague Mage Bekaz and a group of NPC bigwigs such as the Federal Parliament Professional Union appeared, there would be such a village girl who looked completely ordinary and had no characteristics except for her very delicate and cute face, and played a major role behind the incident that everyone expected.

There was still half an hour before the game's 8 a.m. launch, so Rococo was still in the form of a village girl, and after stopping on the street and thinking for a while, she decided to go to the Greenland clinic first.

Rococo still retains a strong curiosity about the final disappearance of Jinzes's body last night, mainly because she wants to know what kind of follow-up plot will be waiting for him if he recovers an ordinary NPC after Jinzes loses the fragment of the creation godhead in this life. After all, the actions of Jinzes in his previous life after becoming an ordinary NPC and the related plots on his body are obviously related to the death of the Greenland doctor, but this time the Greenland doctor did not die, and Jinzes obviously has no motive to frantically find a resurrection method to bring people back to life.

Originally, she thought that with Kinses's precious attitude towards her daughter Greenland doctor, this time he would continue to stay in the clinic to hide his identity and help, but she didn't see the nanny mother-in-law disguised by Kinses at the clinic, and after questioning, the people in the clinic said that the mother-in-law seemed to have resigned early this morning.

Although he was very curious about where Quinzes went after becoming an ordinary NPC, it was obvious that there was no possibility of continuing the investigation at this point, and Rococo did not bother anymore and walked towards the career square at the right time.

Chu Jiajia had a personal matter yesterday and couldn't go online, but she and Rococo agreed that they would definitely log in to the game today, and they were full of expectations for being able to play with this human player friend again, and Rococo was also a little happy in her heart, fortunately Chu Jiajia happened to not be able to go online yesterday, otherwise she might not be able to take care of Chu Jiajia at all about the series of things that happened yesterday, many things involve her special identity and the hidden truth of the "Redemption" game, and it is impossible to confess to ordinary people like Chu Jiajia.

Soon, at 8 o'clock in the game time, Rococo had just switched to player mode, and Chu Jiajia also logged in on time and appeared at the place where they made an appointment to meet online every day.

"Coco~I miss you~"

The light of the system accompanying the character online has not yet dissipated, and Rococo was hugged by Chu Jiajia, listening to Chu Jiajia's tone that he couldn't hide his happiness and didn't hide it, the corners of Rococo's mouth turned up in an instant, but his mouth was still not frank at all.

"It's only been a day, and it hasn't ......been a long time."

Chu Jiajia is the kind of girl who is quiet and even a little afraid of life in front of strangers, but will show a very active side in front of friends like Rococo, if it is usual, Rococo can almost predict that Chu Jiajia will definitely let go of her next and then pouted, and began to say something "Coco has a bad heart!" It's a long day, but it's a long day."

But today Chu Jiajia is a little different, after Rococo finished speaking, the swordsman girl did not immediately refute, but Rococo could obviously feel that she was hugged a little tighter by Chu Jiajia.

Just when the smile on Rococo's face was about to dissipate and turn into worry, and she wanted to ask Chu Jiajia if something was wrong, Chu Jiajia suddenly let go of her this time, and then pouted as she thought just now.

"It's ~~ No, it's been a really long day for me! Coco didn't even know how much I missed you yesterday! ”

Suddenly, the little confusion in Rococo's head was knocked out by Chu Jiajia's daily straight-line ball attack.

"I, I won't know...... Actually, I don't miss you......"

With a flushed face, Rococo didn't dare to look directly at Chu Jiajia, because of this, she didn't see Chu Jiajia clearly when she finished saying the sentence "This day is really long for me", her eyes flashed gloomily.

The two chatted for a while, mainly because Rococo told Chu Jiajia about various major events in yesterday's game, including last night's incident, but these events with huge plot content and great attraction for ordinary players are obviously not more interesting to the swordsman girl than the beautiful scenery in the game and the two-person adventure with Rococo. With a look of anticipation, he began to ask Rococo what their arrangements were for today.

Lancarros's plague plot should be completely and completely over this time, although Rococo finally still has doubts about whether the Federal Assembly is really the ghost who cooperated with Bekaz, but all signs prove that Bekaz has really fled to the border of the continent where the holy city of Arya Val is located, and although the original Federal Assembly on the southern continent has completely collapsed, the permanent members of the parliament, including the speaker and a number of chief councilmen, all died in this incident, However, since Lancarros, the largest force in the Federation, has not been dealt a substantial blow, the chaotic impact of this incident on the situation in the southern continent has basically been limited to the distribution of benefits from the high-level parliamentary reorganization.

Even the real ghost who was mixed in the upper echelons of Lancarus was still there, and without Bekaz as an ally on the outside, and with the restrictions of the game system's legal framework and the constraints of other county forces within the Federation, this guy would not be able to make any big trouble for a while.

What Rococo needs to do now is to prepare for the next step to stop Bekaz's final madness on the border, this time Bekaz single-handedly defeated Lancarros, and even if he wants to attack Arya Val, he is bound to lie dormant in the chaos of the border for a period of time, and what Rococo needs to do is to go to the holy city of Arya Val in advance, while guiding the NPCs of the holy city to make targeted preparations for Bekaz's invasion in advance, while brushing the faith points of the Cult of Creation, It is best to enter the inner sanctum of the Holy City before Bekaz causes chaos and get the fragments of the Godhead of the Holy City first, so as to further enhance his own strength and at the same time cut off Bekaz's thoughts from the source.

In this way, what Rococo needs to do at the moment is simple: reach level 20 as quickly as possible, which is the minimum level limit to travel to the holy city of Arya Val through Lancarros' teleportation.

"Let's go, Jiajia, let's go today...... By the way, Jiajia, are you afraid of undead monsters? Something like a skeleton zombie? ”

"Hmm...... It's okay, it's not so much that I'm afraid, but I feel a little disgusting, and it's okay to be a simple skeleton or something, but I don't really want to deal with zombies or anything like that...... But of course, if the atmosphere of the surrounding environment feels like a haunted house, you will still be afraid. ”

Saying this, Chu Jiajia stuck out her tongue.

"That's good, then let's go and fight those undead monsters except zombies today, because of last night's plague undead incident, recently beating undead monsters around Lancarus is the most cost-effective way to level up, not only the monsters themselves have experience in dropping, but also after killing the undead monsters, we can also go to the Lancarlos barracks to receive additional rewards~"

"Well, listen to Cocoa~"

Saying this, Rococo took Chu Jiajia to the Lancarus military camp, planning to go to the barracks to receive today's newly released daily task of killing the plague undead before going to level up, but she would never have thought that she would meet an unexpected person here.

Looking at the strange NPC guard standing next to the commander-in-chief Dicha who issued the mission, looking young and smiling kindly, but with a few big words [Commander-in-Chief Guard (Jinzes)] on the top of his head, Rococo didn't know how to complain for a moment.

So old thief, what kind of intentions did you have in mind? Investigate the future son-in-law or prepare to assassinate the pig who will arch his cabbage away in the future?

Or yooooo~~~~~~...... Ahem, well, this probably can't be......

"Coco, what's wrong with that guard?"

Chu Jiajia, who was beside Rococo, couldn't help but ask when she saw Rococo staring at Jinzesi's disguised guards with a strange expression.

“…… No. ”

Rococo shook his head, it seems that except for her, no one else can see the three words of Jinzes in the parentheses at the back, presumably because she has some contact with Jinzes before, so she is the default of the system as the insider of Jinzes's identity.

From the moment Dicha, who was no longer in the plot mode and therefore didn't know her, she received the task of killing the plague undead, and the moment she walked out of the barracks, Rococo glanced at Kinses, who had now become like his daughter, "like a puppet with a lost soul", and couldn't help but recall the words that the thief had said to her.

- The world has gone mad...... All people, all lives, have lost their souls, and the whole world seems to have become a huge theater box, and the people in it are all matchmaking dolls performing on it!

- Adventurers, those are simply a group of shameless people who have been lured by this Honkai world, a group of villains who use other people's joys, sorrows, and other people's lives as games to amuse themselves!

- I hate the world, I hate the fallen goddess of creation, I hate all the things that have made my life, my world, the people I love the most, look like this...... But I hope they get better and get back to what they were......

- Please...... Save the world...... Please restore the world to its original state...... Please...... Save the world where my daughter is still alive......

…………

"Now, Arya, do you think it's a good or bad thing for those special NPCs who have shards of your godhead to retain their sense of self?"

Originally, in Rococo's body, because it was a player mode that couldn't come out, Alya, who was a little bored, couldn't help but be stunned after hearing Rococo's question.

「…… Belch...... Meddlesome...... Belch...... No, it's probably a bad thing...... Yes, right?"

You'll be lucky, probably only careerists like Bekaz, right? Kindes aside, even known NPCs who are self-aware like the Black and White Dragon Kings and who have been trying to preserve the order of the world and fight evil and chaos suddenly take on the responsibility that should belong to the gods and not to their creatures, which is really not a good thing. But, they probably never think that way themselves, right? Because the hearts of these people are really strong enough.

"That's a tough question...... Xiao Ke ......"

Chu Jiajia, who walked to the front alone, realized that Rococo hadn't followed, so she looked back at her with some confusion, and Rococo smiled at Chu Jiajia, and then trotted over.

"yes, that's a tough question."

After all, this is not a game for them, for those special NPCs with independent consciousness, or even for ordinary NPCs without independent consciousness.

Good or bad, how can it be simply said?

One thing is certain, though.

「…… Alya, let's do the good work together...... At least if we can take on more responsibility for saving the world, it will be undoubtedly a good thing for all ordered life."

「…… Hmmm!"
