Chapter 69: Bad News Follows (Part II)
"What?" The moment I heard Ning Xinyan say this, I even thought I had heard it wrong, and subconsciously asked again.
"I can't tell you in the first place, this is a secret of the alliance, only the controller can know about it, and even if you say it, it may not be a good thing for you, but you have paid so much, of course you have the right to know!" Ning Xinyan paused, and said with some difficulty, "For the sleep virus that the outside world can't do, in fact, the alliance has developed a special drug to slow down, but ......"
"But what, tell me quickly!" I was a little excited, because I hadn't heard anyone talk about it since I came here, and it was my primary concern at the moment, and there was nothing more important to me than waking Cher.
"Hey, let me tell you." Gao Han sighed helplessly, "The special medicine of the Sleeping One Virus can indeed slow down the effect of the virus, and even wake up the person with the virus in the body, but because the materials used in the special medicine are too precious, the cost is extremely high, and it is completely beyond the extent that money can measure." ”
"Therefore, there is only one way to obtain this special medicine, that is, the highest level task that our controllers can receive: SSS-level tasks, because the difficulty of the task is too high, only the controllers whose strength ranks within the top 100 can complete it, so the rewards of the tasks are also very rich, one of them is the Sleep One Virus Special Medicine, and in the same way, this task is too dangerous for ordinary humans to complete, so it is only open to controllers."
"In other words, ordinary people don't even ......have a chance to get this potion," Gao Han's last sentence hesitated for a long time before he spoke, and after saying it, he lowered his head.
If what happened before was a bolt from the blue, now the news I get is like the whole universe has exploded, and my heart instantly falls into freezing. What is this? Directly lock up the hope of resurrecting Cher, and then tell me that you don't even have the qualifications to embark on this path, and you don't even have the possibility of changing, what is this!?
At this moment, my heart ached like a knife, and I couldn't even feel the pain, I couldn't even make a sound, and I couldn't even take a step.
I can't cry or shout, and even though I really want to look up to the sky and ask why God is so unfair to me, I've lost even this ability.
"Brother Inkmark, don't blame the eldest sister, she hasn't told you that it's for your good, and the alliance itself does prohibit ......"
I raised my hand to stop Gao Han from continuing, and said in a voice that had lost his strength, "Let me be quiet." With that, he took heavy steps and walked away with Xue'er on his back.
Gao Han looked at Chen Mojian's distant back, his eyes were full of pity and sadness, at this moment, compared to Ning Xinyan, maybe he could empathize more.
stepped forward, but was pulled by Ning Xinyan, "You are in this state now, and if you go, it will only have the opposite effect." ”
"But only I understand his pain." As he spoke, Gao Han's face became lost, as if he remembered something from the past.
Ning Xinyan sighed, turned her head to Su Bing'er on the side and said, "Bing'er, you go and see him, don't let him have an accident." ”
Su Bing'er nodded, only to see the light behind her flash, and a pair of white wings grew out of thin air from her back, gently flapping a few feathers, and slowly rising into the air with Su Bing'er's body, and then disappeared.
Walking aimlessly on the streets, watching people come and go, and the high-tech things around me, I couldn't arouse the slightest interest. I don't know how long I walked, but when I looked up again, it was already outside the city of truth, and people from various planets were constantly coming out of the five gates suspended in front of me, some of them discussing family harmony; Some discuss anecdotes; Some of them discussed the past and the future, and it seemed so lively and happy. And standing in the middle of them, my heart was only filled with endless sadness and overwhelm.
Cher is unconscious from the inexplicable virus, the place where she is called a writer is no longer able to go back, we are even being hunted and killed, and our best brother is nowhere to be found. Isn't it enough that the hardships and dangers I have experienced along the way, and I have to face these again, God tell me, when will you be satisfied?
Tears rolled down the corners of my eyes, I'm not a crying person, because that would make me look fragile, I used to live a hard life, if I wasn't strong, I think I would have died before I met Cher. But now, I really can't help it, the man has tears and doesn't flick, just because he hasn't reached the sad place, the world is so big, where is my place to live, where is the stability, tranquility and happiness I pursue......
Carrying Xue'er on my back, I didn't want to see where I was going, so I casually walked towards a door.
Su Bing'er looked at Chen Mojian's lost appearance in mid-air, she frowned slightly, and for the first time, there was a cold and unexpected look on her lovely cheeks. Seeing Chen Mochen step into a jumping device, Su Bing'er was slightly stunned, although Ning Xinyan asked her to follow Chen Mojian, but the place he walked into ......
Su Bing'er hesitated for a moment, but finally gritted her teeth and followed. If it hadn't been for my sister asking me to follow, I wouldn't want to set foot in this place again for the rest of my life, even though it's not what it used to be.
But the next scene shocked Su Bing'er inexplicably, because she found that she didn't enter other worlds through the jumping device, but just walked through it. I tried it several times, but the results were all like this, and it attracted the people around me to stop and cast puzzled eyes.
What's going on? Could it be that someone is using the power of "reason" to stop me? I have to go back and tell my sister quickly.
……
The water in front of me is graceful, and after a few steps, it suddenly opens up. At a glance, the green grass is green, the breeze blows like a green ocean, under the ripples, the light flows, and there are blue points of light between the grass with the wind. The sky is blue, the blue sky is like washing, the daylight is soft, the scenery is picturesque, and it is like being in a dream, and for a while the sadness and incomprehension in my heart dissipate, and all kinds of emotions dissipate, leaving only tranquility.
When I turned around, the jumping device that was supposed to exist behind me was gone, and there were no pedestrians around.
What is this place? Even if my mood was bad and affected my mind, I still had basic judgment, and no matter how I looked at it, this was not the place I should be.
Gently lowering Cher, I twisted it on the back of my hand, and the pain stimulated my brain and cleared me up a little.
"Don't try, it's not an illusion." Suddenly, a voice came not far behind me, which really startled me, and I had just confirmed that there was only an endless grassland behind me, and there was no human figure at all.
I hurriedly turned around and took a step forward, blocked in front of Xue'er, lowered my body, put on a fighting stance, and said coldly, "Who are you?" ”
At this point, about three meters away from me, the man stopped. The man was dressed in a white robe dancing in the wind, standing with his hands in his hands, his figure was tall and tall, and his long hair was frosted up to his waist. He stood there, but it felt unreal, as if it were just an illusion.
I couldn't see him, but I could guess from his voice and his gray hair that he was an old man, because he was wearing a mask with intricate textures carved on his face.
"The posture is good, the consciousness is also very good, but the judgment is slightly lacking, if the opponent standing in front of you can suddenly appear like this, and even scare you, then you should not take a step forward, but retreat, or ......" The old man said, looking at Xue'er behind me. My eyes froze, and I subconsciously leaned towards Cher's side again. And at this moment, I only felt that in front of my eyes, the old man had disappeared out of thin air.
"Sleep virus, I see." The voice suddenly sounded from behind me, and my heart beat a beat, but then I reacted. Without looking, I turned around and punched.
But this time, I didn't touch anything, and the old man's figure disappeared without warning as if it had appeared suddenly, and I almost fell because of the exertion.
"Hehe, when you're not sure if you can hit your opponent, it's best not to use all your strength, otherwise once you are dodged, you will only fall into passivity."
The old man's voice sounded behind me again, and I turned my head to see that he was still standing in his previous position, still standing with his hands in his hands, only this time with his back to me, looking up.
"What the hell do you want to do, don't you feel ashamed to have fun with your juniors when you're quite old." I said coldly, at this time, I probably guessed something, this space is probably created by the old man in front of him, and the method he uses is probably the ability of "reason".
"Hahaha, it's been so many years, no one dares to talk to me like this, even Zhou Xuan's old thing has to respect me for three points, and now a junior who is only in his early twenties is questioning me in my place, it's really funny."
I didn't say anything more, this old man was obviously stronger than himself, although he didn't know the purpose, but if he wanted to be unfavorable to himself, he couldn't escape anyway, not to mention that he said that this was his place, it was even more impossible.
"Okay, let's not talk about this, how about it, my scenery here, isn't it good." The old man seemed to be asking me, and it seemed to be talking to himself, and his voice sounded melodious, and it made me feel surprisingly comfortable.
"Every grass and tree here, every day and every month, all move with my heart, change with my feelings, my heart is restless here, my heart is quiet, and here is also natural and quiet, for a little guy like you who is disturbed by trivial things, it is undoubtedly the place that can calm you down."
