Chapter 1: Welcome to the New World
readx; Dis's eyelids twitched slightly, and he slowly opened his eyes, and he only felt that he had a long, long dream, as if he had dreamed of some indescribable existence, like the sea, like a ghost, and even better...... The Endless Abyss. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
If it weren't for a whispering voice looming in his dreams, it would have called him with great clarity. He may never wake up.
I can't say why, but the premonition in the dark and the instinct in the depths of my soul are constantly reminding Dice to wake him up.
The voice did not belong to any known language, but it made Dice feel genuinely warm and caring, as if a newborn baby was being held in the arms of his beloved parents and did not want to leave for a moment, as if he was reluctant to care for a moment.
I don't know how long it was, probably a second or a century, but Dis somehow understood everything, as if it was directly acting on his soul, without any translation at all.
The incomparably oppressive darkness gradually dissipated, and the inexplicable light woke Dice from his sleep, but the damn inexplicable darkness in the dream made Dice's brain at this time sound loud, and he was a little dizzy for a while.
"Whew, whew, whew......" Dis, who had no focus in both eyes, gasped for breath,
"Whew, it seems that I'm really playing games and playing a little crazy."
Close your eyes, meditate, take a deep breath, back and forth a few times, as the rapidly beating heart slowly stabilizes, the chaotic brain begins to wake up, and the completely clear consciousness of Diess thinks self-deprecatingly.
Hehe, this can't do it all, who made "Annook", the first virtual online game of the Galactic Federation, too real.
It's so real that those who have come into contact with it call it "Second World, New Era".
"It seems that I will have to be more temperate in the future, and if I continue like this, I will really be wasted, and I can......'t even dream of it."
"Woo woo~~"
Before Dice could finish his sentence, his thoughts were interrupted by the normal hearing system, and a burst of sobs like a broken gong rang in his ears like a small subwoofer.
The moment he heard this voice, Dice had only one thought: his sister's is really ugly!!
Dice can guarantee that he has never heard such a terrible cry in the real world or in the game "Annolog", and even his sister's [Banshee Howl] is much better than this cry!
Not because of anything, just because the sound was too ugly, too harsh, comparable to the cry of a night owl, and at this moment, it made his brain and temples feel like a straight sound.
It really made it impossible for him to lie down quietly.
"Shut up! You're sister! It's a morning when you're crying!! ”
Dice couldn't bear to scold, grabbed a random object and smashed it out.
"Ah~~" The sobbing sound like a broken gong stopped abruptly, and was replaced by a high-pitched scream.
Your sister's, uncle's bearable, aunt's can't bear it anymore, and the early morning doesn't let people rest well! Dice decided to teach this man a lesson, to know how many eyes the horse prince had.
With some fuss, Dice lifted the thin layer of things covering his body, sat up, and then... There is no then.
"Ugh!!"
As far as the eye could see, a hunchbacked man with an ugly face and ragged clothes was sitting on the ground with a frightened face in the wide hall, and retreated in panic.
At this time, he seemed to be frightened, but Dice said that he was the one who was scared, okay!
And he was not only frightened by the inexplicable situation in front of him, but also by the ugly man in front of him.
Dice said that it was good that he didn't jump in fright.
"Master Master, I know you are very unhappy with such a humble funeral, but poor Balk really has no money to prepare a coffin for you!"
The hunchbacked man had unkempt hair, his chin was covered with dust on his beard, and his rough linen shirt was stained. Perhaps due to the relationship between long-term work and dirt, the specific age is really difficult to judge, but the preliminary estimate is that it should be less than fifty years old.
Funeral?!
Dice stiffly turned his head to look around, and the scene around him made his already stiff face twitch a few times.
The place where he was no longer his cluttered but cozy nest was a large old hall with quaint decorations that served as a mourning hall.
The familiar tubular incandescent lamps were gone, the primordial cold moonlight shone on Dice's body from the skylight, and the white candles in the hall flickered faintly, but the whole hall was ghostly under the hint of the breeze, and there was no trace of popularity.
If I had to describe it, it would be to not even a sound of insect chirp and rat bite.
What Dice just opened was not a high-grade cicada silk quilt that he had exchanged for two months' salary, but a thin quilt.
And under him was a coffin full of Western style, not his familiar Simmons bed.
Looking left and right, I made sure that I was not at home, that I had not been kidnapped, and that I had not been taken outdoors to shoot some special program......
"Nima, don't play like this."
The reality of this messy and confusing realistic painting style, for a moment Tice felt a little spoiled by this messy reality.
Although Dies's personality is a bit eccentric, sometimes a little neurotic, and his reflex arc is long enough, he claims to be a 2.5-dimensional man who generally feels very cheerful and enthusiastic.
But no matter how strange his personality is now, no matter how long the reflex arc is, what is happening now and everything he sees makes him feel nameless strangeness and inexplicable fear.
It was as if he had thought of something.
"Balk, bring me a bowl of water."
Dice said calmly, fortunately, his natural rough nerves made him not at a loss in such a situation.
In addition, the dry, unfamiliar voice in his mouth made him more sure of his assumptions.
The panicked and overwhelmed Balk's cloudy eyes and frightened expression finally cleared up a little after hearing Dies's order, and the familiar voice made him reflexively obey Dies's order.
Although Balk had many questions at this time, he knew what to do when he had served the Master family for two generations.
"Young master, the water is coming."
"Yes."
With a faint hum, he tried his best to perform calmly.
After all, whoever comes to a strange place and can't find a place that has a trace in common with his life will feel the fear of strangeness because of the unknown, at this time Dice has already performed well.
This is really thanks to Dies's slightly eccentric personality and rough nerves.
Dice poked his face out, but the whole simple process was unusually heavy and slow.
Although he had expected it, Dice still had an unbelievable thought when he saw the dazed, nervous, unfamiliar and somewhat handsome face reflected in the water.
He raised his eyebrows, pursed his lips, and touched his face.
Seeing the reflection of the exact same action, Dice was completely dazed.
"Your sister... Don't play like this. ”
Dice looked at the reflection in the water, the corners of his mouth and eyes, in short, all kinds of corners twitched.
Dice was a little dazed, dizzy, and confused...... In short, all these words can describe how he feels at this time.
Feeling a little confused and tired, he didn't care whether it was a coffin or a bed under him, and leaned aside a little decadently, rubbing his temples while trying to think with his confused brain.
The situation is vague and the clues are confusing, but according to the clues he knows, Dis, who has read all the classic anime novels in prehistory, is more sure of his assumptions.
This idea is neither good nor bad, but this inexplicable giving and not letting people refuse to accept it as if it were an order really makes Dice a little inexplicably unhappy.
You must know that Dice hates others ordering him the most, not why, but inexplicably disgusted.
Looking at the black-haired and gray-eyed young man who was reflected in the water bowl on the side, Dice, who summed up all the current situation, came to a conclusion.
"Eighty percent of them have crossed."
Carefully observing and grinning at the reflection again, pinching himself hard to make sure it really hurts, ignoring Balk's gaze full of question marks, Dice rubbed his chin and said in a solemn tone.
"Fortunately, it's just a change of body, and the species hasn't changed, otherwise even the ancestors would be sorry."
Seeing the pale and thin face reflected in the water, but still with black hair and gray eyes, and a little handsome, Diss was slightly relieved.
Although it can't be compared with the handsome face before me, it's not bad.
It doesn't matter if his body is changed, he is an orphan anyway, but Dice has always been very concerned about his black hair and gray eyes, because it is a pride in his ancient bloodline.
"Well, the water is good, it's natural...... Target. ”
Dice, who felt his mouth dry, commented after drinking, but before he could finish speaking, a green prompt box appeared in front of him, making him stunned again today.
Dice didn't know how many times he had been stunned this morning, but there were a lot of them anyway.
Surprise or shock has been more than usual in a year, but this time it made his heart beat and breathe like a Formula 1 car and put the accelerator on the ground.
"System Prompt: Satiety 1."
Familiar voices, familiar words, familiar scenes, all this is no less familiar than when Dis was about to finish the wheel war by more than a dozen legendary masters of the Holy See, a black light fell from the sky, flashed the eyes of the Holy See's dogs, shone on Dice, and resurrected him with full blood and fought for another five hundred years.
Dice had never felt so excited, not even the moment when he ended Hatsuo was so excited as he was now, and the excitement made his body roar with excitement from the inside out, from body to heart, from head to bottom, from blood to soul.
Dice felt that if he didn't say those two familiar words again, he would explode in the next second!
As for Balkdai's questionable vision, or if his judgment is true, a Balk is not to worry!
"System!!"
Dice was very excited and nervous and whispered this word.
And then......
