Chapter 3: An Inexplicable Beginning and End
"Don't you always laugh at me for being unfinished? Now that I have been reborn, let me show you what the real bad end is! ”
- BY A certain rotten tail clam
……
……
"Don't you think there's a confrontation with that princess in the air right now...... Big-headed doll ...... Something familiar? ”
In the office of the Extraordinarily Disaster Countermeasures Special Operations Group of the Sector 11 Otherworldly Defense Agency, a voice with a somewhat uncertain tone sounded.
This voice also appeared in Ms. Kikuhara's headset just now—in fact, not only this voice, but also other people in the countermeasures team's office have all spoken in the communication link—since the link itself has obviously been cracked by Huaxia, the person opposite Ms. Kikuhara can actually hear this sentence.
However, he still thinks of himself as a patient, so he doesn't plan to get involved in the discussion of the countermeasure team, but pretends that nothing happened.
Correspondingly, some people in Area 11 seem to have been aware of this fact, so they have been silent, including Kikuhara himself. But others don't seem to have the common sense to do this, so the first voice is the beginning, and soon several other rather young voices join in.
"I don't really look like it's from the outside, but I don't think it's a doll, it's a humanoid body."
"Huh? What do you say, fawn? You're not the only driver here, so why can't I see that the doll has anything to do with the mech? However, the people inside are afraid that they can use spells directly. ”
"The big-headed doll you are talking about is called a 'big puppet' in terms of proper nouns in the circle. And now the prototype of the big puppet in the sky should be the young swallow Rokuka nicknamed 'Diamond Heart Will Also Hurt' in the heartbeat episode of the beautiful shaman series. ”
"Understood, but you didn't answer my question."
"Huh? Isn't it a ROBOT? That's boring. ”
"Haha, it seems that I'm right, people should be able to use spells in that big puppet costume."
Obviously, the last sentence of explanation was similar to nothing, and the people who spoke before still didn't quite understand what the slightly cowering young man's voice was stating at the end.
Soon, another voice from the same one came out, and although he knew that he had tried his best to endure it, he was actually still a little anxious and restless. "You little guys, the big puppet is not the inferior armor and coat you imagined, especially this diamond rift, which is not for sale at all. I think I went to line up three days in advance, but I couldn't win her ......"
"She? Mr. Riko, did you use the wrong pronouns? The short-haired girl with white hair who spoke first had a slightly puzzled expression, but it was also clear that she was habitually asking questions about every detail.
"There's no need to know more about his hobby, I think Rem should be more concerned about who the spellcaster in that big puppet is." The mecha pilot named Xiaolu had lost interest in the topic since just now, so this time it was another girl with red hair over her shoulder.
"What are you thinking? Even if I can get a diamond crack, I don't wear it myself, but I collect it! ”
"It's true that I didn't know what I said just now." Seeing that Mr. Chestnut Oh No Lizi indirectly led the topic to more and more remote places, the young man named Sha Tai reorganized his language, and still opened his mouth a little timidly, "What Mr. Lizi said is right. Although it is true that this kind of doll can be put inside, it is generally worn by professionals in official publicity and promotion activities, and it also has to complete high-intensity stage fighting actions. ”
"You mean that even if a rich person like Mr. Riko can wear a big puppet, he still can't meet the needs of strenuous exercise later?"
"Yes, usually this kind of doll is worn by sports girls with a height of about 150, which is very different from the doll costumes worn by ordinary men over 170 outside the mall."
"That's right, that's right! Only petite girls can toss and turn on the stage of the big doll, and the people inside are a little taller, and the height of the whole doll will skyrocket to more than two meters! ”
Mr. Riko couldn't help but interject again, but he was obviously captured by the limited version of the puppet, so much so that he ignored a fact that was too obvious to be obvious.
And this fact was immediately pointed out mercilessly by the red-haired girl, "But no matter how I look at it, I think that doll costume is more than two meters high, you see how it compares with the hair of the princess in the military uniform......"
"Damn! This heresy!! Li Zi took a step forward, eager to hold the monitor screen in his arms, "I want to ...... too I also want to put it on like this!! ”
Naturally, this senseless wail was actively ignored by everyone in the office.
"Shatai, you still haven't finished speaking."
"Yes, Miss Rem. In fact, what you said at the beginning was not wrong. The Beautiful Shaman series itself has nothing to do with this incident, but Miss Momoka, who died a few days ago, has been pointed out by many industry insiders in "Magic Killer Momoka", and refers to the Beautiful Shaman series in many details of the setting. ”
"So you mean, if you talk about influence and the recognition of the audience, this diamond crack is stronger than Momoka, right? I just searched for a few words you proposed as keywords, and the results told me that the beautiful shaman is a national rank anime work......"
"Hmph, that's right." Another middle-aged man who had been standing in the office for a long time, but had been silent, and had the least amount of hair, seemed to be unable to help but open his mouth, "The national works produced by the national company, with the face of Ms. Kikuhara, can't invite someone from that super-first-class company!" ”
"Yes, don't look at the fact that there are a lot of members of the countermeasures team in this office now, but they are just second-rate shrimps. If it weren't for the fact that the big puppet was definitely from Huaxia, I would have thought that a certain company had finally stretched out a little finger to pity us. ”
Another middle-aged man joined the discussion, but their voices were obviously more tired and hateful than those of the teenagers and girls.
That's right, it's not just jealousy and envy, but the kind of hatred that you know from the beginning that it's destined to have no intersection.
It's not so much about the national company as it is about yourself.
"But that's where it's wrong. If the one who teleported over now is really from Huaxia, then she must not be the protagonist who has crossed over from the beautiful shaman's world. But if she wasn't a visitor from another world, where did this ability to look like she could compete with the princess in military uniform come from? ”
"Do we need to apply to Ms. Kikuhara first to see if she can get the information of the 'big puppet'?"
"I think it might be more practical for us to identify the patient across from Ms. Kikuhara than that." Mr. Li Zi, who was still gritting his teeth just now, suddenly threw this sentence, "That guy may indeed be here to recuperate, but I don't think he can be controlled by the Huaxia government." ”
"When you mention that, I do think of a person. Did you notice any details when you just broke in? ”
"Normally, I wouldn't be able to see anything in my eyes except a diamond crack. However, that guy is likely to be Wang Chao......"
"Wang Chao?"
"Wang Chao!"
"Wang ...... Super ......"
"What? The one who can come across the country to cooperate with Tezuka Okami, Huaxia Darkest Rotten Tail Clam? ”
"Tai Chi descendants, martial arts break the void, tiger head and snake tail, invincible?"
"Wouldn't it? Is that monster?! ”
"How could he be here? Didn't he pretend to fill in those three or five holes recently? ”
"How can he be so honest as he is on the screen when he can't control the top special editing team of Qichuang?"
The atmosphere in the office was directly exploded by Wang Chao's two words, and the adult men and women who had been reserved and did not speak spoke almost instantly shouted after hearing this name.
It was as if the word Wang Chao itself brought nightmares and represented chaos.
On the contrary, the teenagers and girls except Sha Tai are a little confused. But soon, the silver-haired Reem, who was obviously smart, found the relevant information from the Internet-
Wang Chao, male, 39 years old, a native of China, with the pen name Wandering Toad, takes the meaning of his person at the end of the world, the wandering duckweed.
China's largest online novel website, one of the earliest VIP authors of Qichuang Chinese Network, although Qichuang Chinese Network was not the first to implement online novel charging for reading, but Wang Chao was the first to get more than four figures of net share of the manuscript fee, which can be said to single-handedly support the strange people of Qichuang at that time.
However, the most terrifying thing about this person is that he has been creating on the Internet for more than ten years, and his works have never exceeded 300,000 words.
Obviously, each of them is a work that will become a top IP with a little training, and he always unfolds when the setting is fully unfolded, and the plot is about to enter the climax, ending the novel completely.
The famous "Douluo Lu", "Breaking the Sky", "Buddha Bendao", "Perfect Realm", "Devouring the Starry Sky", "My Champion", "Such a House" and so on, all came from his handwriting.
Even in physical publishing, he has made quite achievements, such as "Reverse Current Injury", "The Legend of the Ape King", and "Dragonblood", which often won the first place in both sales and income.
And even that's not all the miracles he has created - as a pure Chinese, he can actually write fluently in English and Japanese, and "Harry Potter Big", "Norwegian Woodenwood" and "Ice and Fire Ninefold" are all signed by his famous name......
"So, this guy who can control almost all the themes and firmly grasp countless readers at the beginning of every novel is definitely a complete monster."
"And the editors in Huaxia are not as harmless as we are here in District 11, and the authors can't hand in the manuscript, at best, they are locked up in the basement until they finish writing. The top editors of the top websites of the kind of Qichuang are all doctors of anatomy and psychology, and I have heard that they have a method of urging manuscripts that can cause the least harm to the hands and ideas, but the most painful to the authors themselves. ”
"I've also heard of this, it seems that if the author over there can't help but torture and launch an armed resistance, the retired editors of the special operations brigade of the Southwest China Theater will be suppressed in the shortest possible time......"
But these tricks couldn't help that Wang Chao, when he first revealed on the Internet that he was a Tai Chi descendant, everyone thought he was joking. The few people who didn't sarcastically mock him didn't take the detail seriously. After all, there is a tradition in Huaxia that no author will write a character stronger than himself. The industry in District 11 has always thought that it is the relationship between Chinese works and realistic style, and no one has thought that it is another meaning. ”
"Yes, yes, it is said that Wang Chao not only easily overturned the top editorial team on Qichuang's side in the process of delaying the manuscript, but even fought for three days and three nights with the ace armored team of the Chinese Armed Police who came later."
"Because the battlefield was in the wilderness chosen by Wang Chao himself, ordinary people couldn't understand the specific situation on the battlefield at that time, but I heard that the ace unit then rested for half a year, but Wang Chao drifted away unscathed......
The adults in the office seemed to have opened up the conversation, and everyone was full of red light, and even a certain lady who usually took the cold route was able to interject and chat happily.
This kind of inexplicable carnival somewhat frightened the boys and girls who couldn't figure out the situation, and it seems that the topic of Wang Chao doesn't seem to know much about Brother Shatai, at best, he has only heard of the wandering toad and Tezuka's joint development of IP or something.
As for the people led by Rem, they have no intuitive impression of the anecdotes of the creators on the Huaxia side.
And as long as you have normal logical thinking ability, the more you listen, the more wrong it becomes.
These adults are in full swing discussing, where are the creators of Huaxia?
Anyone with similar legendary deeds is simply enough to serve as the protagonist or boss in the fantasy world.
Is it because the recent work pressure of the countermeasures team has been too much, and these overwhelmed industry insiders have developed a collective illusion and described the fantasy works in Huaxia as real people and real things?
"No, Rem, maybe they're right." In the communication link within the group, Ms. Kikuhara's voice appeared after a long absence, "If you stand in my current position, I am afraid that you can intuitively feel that the person on the other side is definitely not a patient who has come to treat and recuperate, and he is definitely not an ordinary creator." ”
"But, Ms. Kikuhara."
"These days, in addition to the kind-hearted visitors from another world, I have obviously worked with more famous creators in the circle, such as Saya Lizi. Believe me, the wandering toad teacher opposite has a horror beyond my understanding in every sense. ”
"Okay, I trust your professionalism and calmness, Ms. Kikuhara." Silver-haired Rem habitually opened her magic book, the most powerful world-class item she had at hand. "But what about the other one, the one in the big doll dress?"
There was no answer.
After a while, only the rustle of electrical noise remained in the communication channel, and the adults who were happily discussing Wang Chao in the office of the countermeasures team seemed to wake up one by one.
Yes, no matter how terrifying Wang Chao's legend is, he himself is now standing opposite Ms. Kikuhara.
So, in front of everyone's eyes, teleported to the established biggest boss - that is, the military uniform Ji who had killed the magical girl Momoka in that nuclear explosion level battle a few days ago - in front of him, what kind of existence would the wearer of the big puppet costume who was obviously deliberately half a body taller than his body be?
So then, the people in the two offices coincidentally cast their eyes on the surveillance screen again, as if there was no spark in the "air battlefield".
"Mr. Wang, you ......"
"Needless to say, I really don't care." Huaxia god-level creator, the smile on the wandering toad's face was still very kind, "You'd better pray that some arrogant princess won't really anger the adult in front of her." ”
……
While many discussions were going on in the government office, there was no pause in the distant air battlefield.
However, for the most part, Altaïr, nicknamed Ji in the military uniform, was as silent as ever, and the response of the puppet on the other side was always "FUMA" and "FUMA".
Secretly, Altaïr had used no less than double-digit attacks, but the puppet on the opposite side hadn't lost even half of his fluff.
What the young man Shatai could see, Altaïr naturally searched for it from the Internet for the first time. And unlike the silver-haired Rem, although the military uniform Ji herself is considered an outsider, she is very familiar with the two-dimensional culture in the reality of the 11th District Internet.
If the ability of outsiders like them depends more on the recognition of the audience and readers of the "god plane" in front of them, Altaïr had already used all his strength to kill Momoka in the first place, and even succeeded with the help of the malicious intent and opposition to "Magic Killer" itself on the Internet.
But the person in front of him is not a character in the beautiful shaman plane at all, this set of puppets is not gorgeous, but it perfectly conceals the wearer's own information.
Yes, even if it was indeed a fat house that could be found everywhere in the remote countermeasure team, Altaïr could not guarantee that all of his attempts would have an impact on it.
What a terrible ...... Huaxia Monster.
However, Altaïr did not panic, and while she continued to attack, she also brushed herself up with at least a triple calming technique.
Although the opposite side was unharmed, judging from the fact that there were no other voices from FUMA in the big puppet for a long time, the other side may not be really unscrupulous, and it is likely that it is just that it cannot speak normally for some reason, and naturally it will not be able to fight back-for-tat.
Then this empty and defensive turtle shell, just ignore it.
Or, if you can't find a loophole, what measures should you take to let the other party take the initiative to expose the loophole?
Like what...... Beautiful Shaman's work, the other party should really like it, right?
And based on the existing information, the reason why the other party came straight to the door is that there are some reasons why the protagonist of the similar work "Magic Killer" was annihilated under his own hands?
With her eyes rolling slightly, she decided to open her mouth again.
……
"Don't die, don't die, don't die......"
Focusing on the opposite side of Kikuhara, who was staring at the battlefield with his whole body, Wang Chao suddenly seemed to have a premonition, and actually began to think in a deep voice.
……
"Diamond Crack...... Is it? Altaïr's diction was as simple and direct as ever, "Although he is more famous than the magic killer, he often proudly promotes plagiarism. ”
“FUMA?”
"But actually...... I don't care so much about plagiarism.,It's because this outdated series.,I can only repeat myself a long time ago, right? ”
“FU……”
"So, after Momoka was easily defeated to me, are you guys sad that the rabbit died and the fox died?"
“……”
……
"It's over, it's over." Not only muttered, but Wang Chao even began to rub his hands involuntarily. However, after gently raising his arm and knocking on his forehead, his voice was normal again, and he turned to Kikuhara's side without hesitation. "When will the terms of your government's previous application for assistance be fully fulfilled?"
"Huh?" Kikuhara was a little caught off guard, and couldn't understand the jumpiness of the other party's topic at all.
……
"Angry at what I said? Or after ......"
The slightly smug and provocative tone was interrupted abruptly,
The transparent shield in front of Ji in military uniform suddenly lit up, and then dissipated with a crisp cracking sound.
"I was originally ......" The big puppet on the opposite side also lit up with a light pink halo.
It was a bit ridiculous, but Altaïr couldn't laugh at all. Because of the shattered fire of the shield, she could only rely on her body to resist the silent and tyrannical energy storm on the opposite side for the time being.
However, the doll itself is not affected in any way, except that the head gradually floats up, and the body part softly falls off from the various positions of the wearer, and then reassembles into a complete doll again. “…… I just want to be perfunctory and hand over ......the task."
"This ...... That's what it is...... Beautiful ......" no matter when and where she didn't want to lose her momentum, the voice of the military uniform Ji struggled to sound.
But before he could finish speaking, he was shattered by the oncoming stream of supreme energy, and Altaïr himself was swept nearly a kilometer away.
"Shut up!"
It's almost exactly the same as the big diamond crack, but it's a gorgeous dress that's a few sizes smaller, and it's ironed on the plain-faced, amazing-looking girl. Slightly different from the original design of the work, the young swallow Liuhua does not have a height of more than 1.75 meters......
"You...... I don't understand Q baby's ...... at all Shred! ”
Teleport, raise your fist.
Thunderstorm, boom!
……
……
On that day, Wang Chao was finally forced to recall the horror of being once dominated by a girl dressed in LO clothes, and the humiliation of being imprisoned in the 6,000-word full attendance......
"Are you a wandering toad? The king of ghosts is super, and he really lives up to his name. "Dressed in a gorgeous black gothic lolita dress, a top-notch beautiful girl with an almost flawless appearance stands condescendingly in mid-air.
Slowly and weakly propped his right hand on the stone floor in front of him, leaning over violently in a half-kneeling position, and in the midst of several teeth-aching bone and joint gnaws, Wang Chao moved his arm slightly with a self-deprecating smile. "Stop pretending, monster."
"What if...... If I'm a ghost, then you...... It's the devil! ”
