Desperate Realm, the only connecting hub between countless worlds and worlds, is open to all executioners who successfully clear the first Proving Ground alive.

It's a stopover with a super mix of styles, where you can see any style that belongs to different civilizations, medieval Victorian, Nordic Viking, corner pavilions, square gardens, religious Gothic, cyberpunk, wasteland and yellow sand...... One cannot doubt that this place is a miniature condensation of almost all the different dimensional civilizations, and one scene at a time along the way is like stumbling into some fantasy scroll.

In the corner of the area, close to the Earth plane, in the ancient Song Dynasty-style building area, a figure was tied to a wooden pillar in the center of the hall and stared at a group of people with machine guns. The futuristic thermal guns and the military-style camouflage combat uniforms on those people all look out of place with this antique background.

Tied to the pillar was a girl who did not look very old, her hands were tied behind her back in strong knots, but the whole person sat cross-legged on the ground, as if she did not care about the crowd with guns pointed at her.

"We've already left a message, why hasn't that companion of yours come yet?" Seeing that the atmosphere was becoming more and more deadlocked, in the crowd wearing imitation army-style combat uniforms, a man with a tattoo on his head strode out, looking like he was not easy to mess with.

The girl pursed her lips, with a little helplessness in her tone. "I told you that we don't know each other, and she definitely doesn't want to spend time and supplies to save me. I really don't have any money, so you might as well change someone. ”

"Talk less to me and more nonsense!" The malevolent man yelled at her, and turned to take a cellphone-like communication screen from a sexyly dressed woman. He pressed his finger twice, connected the conversation, and then looked back at the girl viciously. "You'd better think about what to say, if no one comes to save you in the end, don't blame us for being unkind and tearing up the ticket."

"Okay."

The conversation was connected, and a face that looked ordinary but had dazzling eyes instantly appeared on the screen, and it was the appearance of Xi Han Pavilion. She seemed to be walking briskly through some somewhat chaotic street market at the moment, and her words were a little choppy.

"Why are you again, I said I don't know her anymore, if you do this again, I'm going to the union to send a bounty to accuse you of fraud!"

The inch-headed man who was suspected to be the leader of this group of people sneered when he heard this, "Hmph, I think that nosy person dares to take care of this." I'll give you one last chance to come to 'Herentang' with a thousand passes, and two weapons, or we'll tear up the ticket." ”

With a flip of his wrist, he pressed a sharp Tang knife against the neck of the person who was tied, "Of course, if you continue to insist that you don't know her, her existence will be meaningless, just wipe it out." So, I'm asking you again now, do you know her? ”

"I ......"

"Xihan Pavilion, your uncle!" The girl who was held against the back of her neck scolded unceremoniously at the screen, "If you dare to say that you don't know me, I will come back and take you with me even if I die." ”

"It's all dead, so don't toss these anymore, okay," Xi Hanting on the other side of the screen also followed closely without hesitation, "Besides, who is to blame for coming to this situation now?" If it weren't for you, would we have been here for so long? ”

"You fart, who said you had to go to the weapons store in the cyberpunk district in the first place? I can't blame me for this matter at all, you are a thief and a thief. ”

After a few words of negotiation with each other, the two began to ignore the blackmail kidnappers on one side and quarreled with themselves. For a while, the atmosphere was competing, and they all aroused each other's damn desire to win.

In the end, the girl, that is, Qiu Xuan, sighed slowly, and recalled how the situation had evolved to this extent in the increasingly unkind gaze of the inch-headed man and the force of the tip of the knife.

After the end of the Plague Proving Ground, Qiu Xuan and the Xihan Pavilion are teleported back to the Desperate Realm by a glowing arch decorated with LRD tubes. At that time, after roughly sorting out some things about Luoshui and the plague, Qiu Xuan got up from the ground, looked at Qin Jiuyuan, who was dragging his back in his hand—that's right, the unpredictable and unpredictable dog man (Qiu Xuan's original words)—the "Internal Combustion Dual-Headed Conversion Optoelectronic Steam Magic Energy Impact Cannon" that was stuffed into her at the last moment, and fell into deep thought.

Not to mention the question of whether it is a semi-finished product, the size and weight of the impact gun after shrinking alone is enough to give people a headache. She had to untie the super-large capacity tattered backpack on her back and gesture again, and found that the bag could still be barely loaded, but it was difficult to say whether the bag would be torn off completely.

"What are you doing standing stupidly, we're going to set off in the space." Xi Hanting got up from the ground with a slap of dust on his hind feet, turned his head and urged.

“…… Space? ”

Xi Hanting turned his head, his face was indescribably inexplicable. "What's wrong with space, the plague has made you stupid? I wanted to talk about you when I was in the proving ground before, what are you doing with that broken bag, is your personal accompanying space for furnishings? ”

Personal carry-on space. Qiu Xuan automatically skipped the scolded words and caught the word from her words. Due to various factors such as nightmares or Lu Xingzhou, she couldn't casually reveal to others that this was her first time in a desperate situation, even if it was Xihan Pavilion. In fact, since stepping into that arch and entering a desperate situation, Qiu Xuan has been secretly guarding the people around him, and when he was in the plague proving ground, he could work together to clear the customs because of his position, but now the situation is no longer the same.

She sighed slightly because she had become suspicious and guarded, but then she tried to associate it in her mind and accidentally touched a space that instantly dispelled her very short-lived sentimentality.

It was a sudden jingle in her head as she stepped into the entrance of a desperate situation with her front feet, and a very simple control panel appeared in her mind out of thin air.

"Welcome! Lucky players, by the time you reach the end of your journey through the first world, you'll already be able to become a qualified executioner! Keep up the good work and win the game for the 'adult' who chooses to trust you!

For this reason, we have specially prepared a newbie gift package for you! The rewards of this newbie gift package include: 200 Desperate Pass Coins, an expandable personal accompanying space, a basic dagger, a basic laser pistol, and a newcomer pass friendly coupon. Take advantage of these!

Finally, I wish you a happy carnival! ”

…… The feeling is that the novice level reward is not received, and he will go directly to the next level. Qiu Xuan was speechless for a moment, and then quietly avoided the sight of the Xihan Pavilion and began to check the contents of those gift packs. First of all, the basic dagger, it really ...... Very basic. A tattered piece of iron that was barely cast into the shape of a dagger, compared to Qiu Xuan's own knife of unknown material, it was simply one heaven and one underground.

It doesn't seem to be necessary. Then the next basic laser pistol, although it looks quite decent, but given that there is a lesson from the past, it is very likely that the function of the basic pistol is to be able to shoot. Qiu Xuan smacked her lips and put the pistol into the personal accompanying space, and as soon as she opened the space in her mind, she raised her eyebrows in surprise.

The so-called personal entourage space is still quite small, almost one square meter, and if it is placed vertically, it can just be stuffed into the shrunken impact artillery, but no more can be fitted. What Qiu Xuan really cares about is the word "scalability" in the reward details, and the connection between her and personal space tells her that the upper limit of space expansion does not exist, so theoretically speaking, the space can be expanded to infinity, of course, provided that you have enough ability to upgrade.

As for the pass coin, it is an ordinary coin, and the last "newcomer pass friendly coupon", I don't know what it is, but it looks like a perfunctory number, they like to engage in this kind of thing, Qiu Xuan has become accustomed to it and even gradually numb.

Thinking like this, she decisively put the impact cannon into the space, and as for the tattered oversized backpack, after trying and finding that it really couldn't fit in, she simply carried it back on her shoulder.

The two of them walked forward in the straight direction of the entrance, Xi Hanting paused, and then turned his head to look at Qiu Xuan. "I'm grass, the people in our guild said that there is a new weapon in the cyberpunk area, and it seems to be a long-range tracking signal positioning transmitter?! No, no, I have to go, what are you going to say, do you want to go back to your guild? ”

"I didn't add a guild."

"Huh? When you first went into a desperate situation, those fly salesmen didn't pull you to fill out the guild registration form? It's impossible, when the average newcomer is in a completely unfamiliar environment, in order to ensure their own protection first, they will add the guild, and the registration form is actually a semi-coercive means for you to add. ”

Qiu Xuanxin said that this is the first time I have come to a desperate situation, maybe it is more vicissitudes and not like a novice. But then she shrugged and replied, "Because I'm a lone wolf." ”

Xihan Pavilion: "......"

"At the end of the day, it's just a competition." She rolled her eyes at Qiu Xuan unceremoniously, "Don't blame me for not reminding you at that time, it is difficult to go on alone in a desperate situation, and sometimes the team's resources or even vanity can make you go further." ”

"Got it, I'll think about it."

"Okay, if you really can't do it, you can add our guild, our president is also the executioner of 'aesthetics', so I have a good relationship with him. Oh yes, here, Black ...... Ahem, Qiu Xuan. Xi Hanting suddenly shouted her name seriously and seriously, and she put away her playful expression, looking more serious than ever.

"If you can, unless the other party is a person with special abilities like me, don't, don't tell anyone that you're a dark executioner."

“…… Why? ”

"The lower limit of human malice is theoretically infinite, and you can never imagine it, especially for some people who have successfully survived more than a dozen trial grounds, how terrifying it is to have inexplicable malice and the extreme that wants to drag you into the abyss."

Xi Hanting said, "Because I have personally seen a newcomer who is especially good at gullible others on the third day of coming to a desperate situation, and all parts of his body are already lying in the east, west, north, south and north corners of a market, and it is especially ...... You're the only one, and if the Dominator only chooses one executive, you should be able to understand what I mean, right? ”

"The other Rulers have cast a wide net across the Three Thousand Worlds, so even the death of one or even hundreds of executioners is only a 1 in 1,000 chance of victory for them. And the darkness is different, you're 100 percent, you know. Whether you win or lose, you are 100 percent, and as long as it kills you, then the darkness has completely lost the possibility of winning again. I don't know what your ruler is thinking, but for now you're a lot more pleasing to the eye than the old fritters, so I hope you'll live a little longer. ”

Qiu Xuan sighed, and finally said, "Then I'll borrow your auspicious words." ”

The change occurred at the moment when the two of them walked towards the cyberpunk area, first Xi Hanting suddenly heard a piercing scream from outside the exhibition, and when she turned her head and turned back, she found that Qiu Xuan, who was following her, was gone.

Xi Hanting's face sank for a moment, and then he bent down and picked up the letter that was obviously deliberately placed there.

It reads: "Your companion is now in our hands, now hurry up and raise two thousand yuan of pass coins and two quality weapons to send to the 'Renhe Hall', otherwise we will tear up the ticket." ”

"Decepticons......" she muttered under her breath, standing alone in place, not knowing what to think.

Although it has the name "Deception", it is almost impossible to say what to say, but for a desperate situation, the Deception Society is one of several first-class guilds. But they are more famous not for this, but for threatening to tie up as a means of making quick money and supplies, so some so-called self-proclaimed "impartial people" are not very happy to recognize their status.

On the other side, Qiu Xuan had already raised her knife to block the moment the danger sense sounded, but it was obvious that what attacked her was not a tangible monster, but a burst of colorless and odorless gas.

Almost after inhaling a large puff of colorless gas, Qiu Xuan fainted to the ground before his brain could react, and then he felt that he was tied up, and he was thrown into a car by a slightly rough movement.

And when she woke up again, she was faced with the situation at the beginning. At this moment, Qiu Xuan sighed, looked at Xi Hanting's angry face on the screen that was connected, thought about it and spoke: "Come quickly, sister, otherwise I will really be torn up." ”

"To put it mildly, do you know what the concept of 2,000 passcoins is, and the most expensive brother on the bounty list is only 4,000 now, and this number is indeed a huge amount of money for most people."

Qiu Xuan: "Whether it's me or money that matters, I'm sad." ”

Xihan Pavilion: "......"

Xi Hanting: "I think it's money. ”
