Chapter 181
The end of the world
"There are 27 days left until the end of the world."
The video that was being broadcast was abruptly cut to show a girl wearing a quirky cat-face mask holding a giant old-fashioned electronic clock in both hands, and mischievous text in bright red font on the light screen projected by the picture tube.
"Ahh The girl complained indignantly, the second thing she hated in those days.
Su Zhe clasped his arms in his hands and did not try to turn off the TV or switch programs - if this was a prank, it can only be said that the author of this prank was too successful.
At a certain time of the day, such a prank will come again, like an incurable Internet virus, when it strikes, all channels on the entire network will switch to the same screen like the Bronze Saint Seiya who responded to Athena's call, and even shutting down the computer could not prevent it from killing in that instant.
What's even more infuriating is that from the first 365 days, the electronic clock that kills a thousand knives will be reduced by one every day, as if a calculating demon is calculating the payment deadline for your soul with relish in his hands.
Naturally, the government will not turn a blind eye to such a mischief of a negative nature, starting with the initial "We regret to declare this an illegal act, please stop the bad act that shakes social stability as soon as possible." "Later" we will locate the suspect through Lan Xia and punish her for her unrepentant behavior. ”
As for now, if Su Zhe remembers correctly, it should be - "Officially classified as terrorist activities, all organizations and individuals who support and harbor the criminal will be severely punished accordingly, the criminal will be wanted in the whole city, and the person who provided the information will be kept confidential and the residents' authority will be promoted to the C level." ”
However, it didn't work, and although the countdown to the end of the day was unstable, the full attendance so far was still damn 100%.
In the end, the government had to hold several press conferences to refute the apocalyptic claims that the end of the world was nothing more than nonsense, and the sun would still rise the next day.
However, this is not something that Su Zhe should be concerned about, he stroked Su Zhe's soft short hair like black velvet like a kitten, and waited for the end of the doomsday prophecy.
As usual, it was like an interstitial commercial, and after only seven seconds, everything was back to normal, and the battle footage of the beams flying across the screen was back there.
This is currently the most popular game live broadcast, SCX, and this is also the last straw to save the debt situation of Su Zhe's brothers and sisters.
Due to a recent serious illness in Sue Mei, the siblings spent all their savings and incurred a large amount of debt to cure her, and in order to get out of this situation, they decided to participate in the SCX Elite Invitational, which will be held in three weeks.
Just now, while they were working on tactics together, their interest was interrupted again by the daily prophecy of doom.
At this moment, a few patches of white ash suddenly fell from the roof, and the house shook slightly.
"Ahh Su Mei blocked her ears with her hands in pain, this was the most annoying thing she had ever done these days.
DOWNSTAIRS THEY WERE A C-CLASS CHEMIST, ENGAGED IN THE PREPARATION OF UNSTABLE CHEMICALS, AND THE DAILY EXPLOSIONS WERE LIKE A COMMON OCCURRENCE, AND SU ZHE FIRMLY BELIEVED THAT ONE DAY THIS BUILDING WOULD BE DESTROYED BY THE GREAT CHEMIST BOMMMMMMM~.
Based on this factor, it is also urgent to win the invitational championship.
When the shaking of the house stopped, Su Mei pitifully lowered her finger and showed a firm look at Su Zhe: "You can't lose." ”
"Yes, you can't lose." Su Zhe nodded seriously.
……
……
This city is called Star City, located in a corner of the solar system in the galaxy star area, after the unprecedented development of science and technology human beings into the space civilization, the advancement of science and technology has slowed down significantly, and ******** has been rejuvenated, the emergence of a satellite gathering place, the manufacture of a powerful master control computer, and the centralized rule of the great empire is gradually replaced by the decentralized city-state politics. After all, with the expansion of human involvement, the stagnation of communication tools restricts the rule of the former.
Star City is such a typical satellite city, except for the supercomputer Lan Xia, who is responsible for coordinating the statistical work of the whole city, the overall level of science and technology is limited to a fairly low level, and the city residents use the intuitive ABCDEF to delineate the level and determine the corresponding treatment.
For example, Su Zhe is an E-level citizen as an ordinary citizen, and Su Mei is miserably classified as an F-level person who does not have the ability to execute because he is less than eighteen years old.
In addition to a large cash prize, the most important reward for winning the SCX Elite Invitational is to upgrade the resident privilege to a C-level honorary citizen, so that Su Zhe will have enough income to pay off the arrears and change his residence.
And yet - there are 27 days left until the end of the world.
Two ZERO
Although the countdown to the end of the world continues, although it is said that BOMM comes and goes downstairs every day, but people always have to eat, and life still has to go on, so Su Zhe originally put on a posture of becoming a benevolent if he didn't succeed, and wanted to borrow a lot of money from Lan Xia to spend the last three weeks of drinking.
"What if, the end of the world?" Su Zhe explained to Su Mei seriously.
"In case there is no end of the world." Su Mei looked at his unreliable brother with a smile: "We're going to eat potatoes for two years." ”
Su Zhe imagined the scene for a moment, then closed his eyes in pain. Su Mei raised his hand and slapped the NO button on Su Zhe's loan application, and then turned back: "Don't look at the painting, right?" ”
As a veteran player who has been immersed in SCX for several years, Su Zhe has the strength to rank in the top 10 of Battle.net and has a chance to challenge for the championship, but that doesn't guarantee them a sure win.
But unfortunately, they also have an illegal account ZERO, which is currently ranked first on the ladder list.
The so-called illegal account is an incomplete account registered by using the Lanxia loophole, and the holders of the account are Su Zhe and Su Mei.
Because Su Mei is not yet eighteen years old, she is not eligible to obtain a legal account, but the strength of this little girl is so fierce that people are angry.
As soon as the banner of the two people ZERO in the qualifiers was played, it caused a great shock in the whole circle, many people know that this is an illegal account, and there is no way to confirm the login location and the identity of the loginer, but this invitational tournament does not prohibit the participation of illegal accounts.
What's more, ZERO is so famous that as soon as he appeared, he almost locked in the championship of this invitational tournament.
In the entire qualifiers, Su Mei and Su Zhe chopped melons and vegetables all the way, and the so-called opponents were just wandering painfully between chickens, rookies, quails, and parrots.
So soon, they were in front of the finals.
"Which dress should I wear?" Su Zhe? Su Mei opened the wardrobe and rummaged through her clothes while asking for Su Zhe's opinion.
Su Mei doesn't have many clothes, and the range of choices is also very limited, but she still chooses to ask Su Zhe, which is more of a dependent nature.
"The white one, black and white are a little better." Su Zhe replied casually, the finals of the invitational tournament are offline competitions, and the contestants need to arrive at the scene to compete, so it is very important to choose decent clothes, although Su Mei is a very standard otaku, but when it comes to going out, she still pays attention to her beauty and ugliness like an ordinary girl.
As a man, Su Zhe's clothes are very easy to match, he casually took out a pair of clean jeans and a T-shirt and put them on.
When you are only one step away from your goal, everything seems a little unreal.
Just then, there was a knock on their door.
However, usually they lived in two people, and no third person ever knocked on the door.
Su Zhe walked over curiously and opened the door, but there was no one in front of him.
There was only a bamboo-woven basket with a delicately wrapped heart-shaped chocolate basket containing a piece of rose-colored paper.
Ge Zhu couldn't help but pick up the piece of paper, only to see that it read:
"Happy birthday.
Please do not go to the Invitational Finals. ”
The byline is an unfamiliar but familiar English name.
Emma。
In the date column, the man wrote the countdown with a bright red pen.
There are seven days left until the end of the world.
