Chapter Twenty-Three: The Plague That Ensues
"The construction of the magic array has been completed, and if there is no problem, it will start summoning." In the living room of the villa, Yue Xian looked upstairs after hearing the reminder of his watch. Then he nodded. As the number of people he wants to protect increases, the watermelon alone is no longer busy, and the act of leaving Zhang Yuan to watch his family and going to the castle by himself is actually very dangerous. A single error in judgment can cause irreparable damage.
"By the way, when did I start having three stones?"
"It's four now."
"...... "Because I asked the method of obtaining the saint quartz before, but the answer given by the watch before was too abstract, and I was not too sure at this time." Do you get a stone every time you encounter danger? Or do you get stones over a period of time? No, caught in inertial thinking, the method of obtaining saint quartz is likely to be plural, and it can be obtained if one of them is met, or there may be a plural standard, and it can only be obtained if it meets a certain standard and above. "In this way, it is almost impossible to parse the exact conditions, just like cracking a password, once the number of characters that can be entered increases, the difficulty of parsing will increase exponentially.
He frowned and gave up thinking about it, after all, even the watch said that the way in which the saint quartz was obtained was difficult to explain in the existing language, which meant that it was probably determined by some factor that humans had not yet recognized.
At the same time, just like the first time, a very complex magic array appeared in the room, which was very different from the first time when it was only a palm, this time it was two meters in diameter, and the layers of magic arrays were constantly superimposed, Yue Xian vaguely realized that this was a watch communicating with something again, and then a beam of light that could not even be blocked by the walls of the villa went straight to the sky.
"Oops, forgot about this stubble." Although the walking corpse is not attracted by the light, the previous experience at the Shi Ming brothers' house has made Yue Xian know that there are some special walking corpses that are still attracted to the light, and as far as the only experience is concerned, it is not pleasant.
Fortunately, the pillar of light only lasted for a short moment, and if it wasn't very close, there shouldn't be a way to determine its location. At the same time, as the light in the room dissipated, a humanoid creature wearing a black cloak, wrapped in black bandages, and wearing a white bone mask appeared in front of Yue Xian.
“......”
As a crown salted fish player,Almost at a glance I recognized the guy in front of me.,The servant of the job is an assassin.,Compared to the combat effectiveness of the identity of the servant.,The existence of assassination is better.。 However, unlike the Hassan in the game, there is no way to confirm the identity of the Hassan in front of him.
And this is also in the real sense of contact with the servant who has just been summoned, after all, Xiao Zhende was in a faint when she was summoned, and it should be the master who instilled her with the current situation.
In other words, do you want to show him the current situation? Feeling caught in his grasp, the boy swallowed the saliva in his throat.
"I have known the purpose of this place, you are the creator, I am the sword of the gallop. Assassin Hassan al-Sabah came to report for duty. ”
"Huh? Author? The Sword of Recruitment? Are you sure you're an assassin and not a saber? Although he didn't really want to complain, Yue Xian still tangled up with the other party's words and deeds, what was going on with the ancient flavor of this mess, there was no sense of assassination at all, in comparison, the righteous swordsman was a good match for him. And judging by Hassan's words and deeds, it seems that he already knows the current state of the world.
"Brother Xian, what's wrong? There seemed to be a strong light just now. Zhang Yuan, who was standing on the stairs, seemed to have woken up from the strong light of the magic array just now, and selectively ignored Yue Xian's self-talk.
After hearing Zhang Yuan's voice, the young man was obviously taken aback, because Hassan was still in the living room, and it would be very troublesome to explain himself to the sudden appearance of such a strangely dressed person in the villa. A trace of sweat flowed from his forehead, and when he moved his gaze back from Zhang Yuan to look at Hassan, he was surprised to find that the other party had disappeared without knowing when.
Zhang Yuan, who saw Yue Xian's inexplicable behavior, asked with concern, "Brother Xian?" You okay? ”
"Ahhhh......h I got it, it's okay, you go to sleep, there's me and the watermelon. Because he didn't know how to explain, he simply went straight to the perfunctory, and Zhang Yuan didn't mean to continue to investigate, just nodded and went back upstairs to continue sleeping, and at the same time didn't forget to tell Yue Xian: "Brother Xian, you should go to bed early, it's not early." ”
"Ah, well" After confirming that Zhang Yuan had gone up, his eyes moved back to the living room again, and sure enough, Hassan Sabah was already standing there. Should it be said that he is worthy of being an assassin, the ability to hide his body is indeed superb, and Yue Xian, who was a little disappointed because he summoned Hassan, finally felt a little relieved at this time.
"I'm sorry, I was interrupted just now, indeed I am your summoner, Yue Xian, can you tell me how much you know about this world now?" To be on the safe side, it's important to confirm the other person's level of knowledge of the world.
"Common sense has been indoctrinated, including the terrible state of affairs on the earth right now."
Well, Yue Xian breathed a sigh of relief after getting the other party's answer, after all, if you don't understand anything, it will cause a lot of trouble. "Well, please."
"As it should be." After nodding his head to Yue Xian, Hassan Sabah performed a real disappearance in front of Yue Xian.
"Shall I go, will the breath obscure me? It's really a good thing to use. It was only at this time that Yue Xian was happy that he had added another combat power, and his whole person was a little fluttering. The whole person lay on the sofa, looked at the mechanical watch on his wrist and asked, "What did you mean by the second impact before?" ”
"Divine consciousness static electricity."
"What's that?"
Although I don't understand it, I have a very bad premonition, because when I was bound to the system before, it seemed to be in a state of static isolation of the consciousness of the gods, which means that in fact, there are all those things around me now?
"It's complicated to explain, you can think of it as a kind of radiation, or energy."
"Energy, what's it for? Used to perceive? ”
Unlike in the past, this time the watch did not immediately reply to the teenager's question, but was more like a human being, sorting out the words before replying.
"The first shock was the one that caused the end of the earth twenty-one days ago." The words without any emotion were that Yue Xian's whole person was cold from head to toe all of a sudden, and the first impact caused a fatal blow to the human race, so what would it bring this time?
"Can the earth really carry it?"
"The planet won't be affected."
It is no longer a vibration that allows Yue Xian's brain to directly understand what he means, but the watch itself simulates the sound.
"How could it not be affected? Look at the devastated world, the earth."
Just when Yue Xian's emotions became a little intense, and he wanted to refute the watch, the watch suddenly raised his voice and said a sentence: "The earth will not be affected, only human beings will not be able to persevere." ”
For a moment, the voice without any emotion calmed down, and then realized something that had been ignored by me, yes, it has always been human beings who unilaterally imposed their own state on the earth, and the earth is really just like what they know, because of the existence of human beings. There is no doubt that even if all human beings are gone, the earth will still be the earth, he has always been the earth, and human beings are just a moment in his long life. In the short period of 1.7 million years, in that long universe, it can be said that it is so small that there is no time unit to measure it.
Feeling as if he had thought of something very bad, Yue Xian frowned and rubbed his head, and the watch did not mean to continue on this topic, if it wasn't for the young man to figure it out by himself, this matter would not have any meaning, and such emotions were expressed.
After being silent for a long time, Yue Xian asked a question again: "What are the consequences of the second impact?" ”
"It's not clear, with different civilizations, the screening process is different, there will be no repetition, and the only common thing is that for civilizations, they are all devastating disasters."
"What do you mean? Isn't it just the end times that have happened to the earth? What does screening mean? ”
"It's complicated to talk about it in detail, you better deal with your own affairs first, it's too early for you to sift through civilization." It seemed that he felt that talking too much was not helpful to Yue Xian, so the watch interrupted the topic at the right time.
"The impact of the second impact should have begun, and it will probably be seen tomorrow, it is better for you to join up with Skaha as soon as possible, even with my help, the mana consumption of the three servants is the limit for you."
"Yes." The joy that had summoned Hassan was vanished by some of the watch's words, and he walked towards the room on the second floor of the room with a bad mood and a tired body.
Because of the previous lesson, Yue Xian didn't dare to turn on the light in the room even at night, and climbed into his bed in the dark. "Huh? How is it hot? ”
The moment he slept under the quilt, Yue Xian felt it, not a cold bed, but a very warm body temperature, and then his body touched something very soft. The last time I had this experience, it was the craftsman's knee pillow, but this time the touch is a little softer, as if it can melt the whole person into it.
Immediately realizing what was going on, Yue Xian turned on the bedside light with a surprised expression.
Although I had a little feeling before, the lack of experience still limited my imagination, and just by that dim light, I could clearly recognize the fact that the girl in front of me had the ultimate peerless appearance that human beings could achieve. As fragile as the ice lotus blooming on the endless snowfield, the beautiful, pure girl shrunk in her own bed at this time. After swallowing his saliva unconsciously, the young man asked tentatively, "Xi'er?" ”
