ACT.257 Little girl

"Are you happy here?"

Chen Luo stood in the living room and asked Mu Geng beside him.

"Satisfied."

Mu nodded his head gently, judging from the expression on his face, it seemed that he was quite satisfied with this place, not just to make Chen Luo worry.

Since he didn't know how long it would take to complete the next main quest, Chen Luo naturally wanted to find a place to stay for the time being.

Fortunately, although there have been some accidents in this world, the currency used has changed, but the exchange between the currency and the star crystal has been opened, but in order to increase the difficulty, the exchange ratio is a bit pitfall. Tatsuro used three hundred star crystals to exchange for currency that could buy this somewhat small house and leave a few months of living expenses.

The key point is that because of the chaos in this world, the currency is not fixed, and it is very likely that it is still this currency today, and tomorrow it will suddenly become a pile of waste paper. Although it is possible to buy some real estate to guarantee money, as mentioned earlier, this world is relatively chaotic, and Chen Luo can't take care of it alone. Those who are crazy can't stop the shock at all, and even death may not be able to make them wake up.

Therefore, Chen Luo did not spend the remaining more than 1,000 star crystals, after all, this was accumulated from the last unfinished world, and if the star crystals were not completely passed, it would not be easy to earn. This world doesn't know what else will happen, so it's better to leave some star crystals to face the unexpected situation.

There are three bedrooms, a bathroom and a kitchen. Although each room is not very big, for Chenluo, who is only accompanied by two sword elves, Restia and Esther. I was barely able to stay.

Because this world is much more difficult than the previous one. So Restia and Esther are also restricted. At the moment, he was staying by Chenluo's side.

The statement about Mu Geng is that Restia and Esther are Chen Luo's righteous sisters, after all, there is a big difference in hair color and appearance, and I am afraid that Mu Geng will not believe it when it comes to Cheng Shimei.

As for the reason why Restia and Esther didn't follow Chenluo yesterday, it was because the two of them were separated from Chenluo yesterday to find the residence, and today was also found by Chenluo last night, so although it was a little suspicious, Mu Gen didn't care because of the big change that had just happened.

"Then you will live in the upper room, and the two of them will live by the window. I'll stay in the following room. ”

At that moment, Chen Luo made a simple arrangement.

The reason why Mu Geng lives in the inner part is also because he is worried about the appearance of monsters like yesterday, and Chen Luo doesn't know much about the original intestines, so if Mu Geng lives by the window, it is likely that he will be the first to die. In the middle, with Chenluo and Restia and Esther, it can be safer to be somewhat.

"Hmm."

Although Mu Geng didn't know Chen Luo's intention to arrange this, he didn't care, and nodded his head obediently.

Although Mu Geng was the eldest lady of the Tiantong family before, it doesn't seem to have the arrogant and willful character of those ordinary eldest ladies, at least in terms of daily life and the like. This also made Chen Luo's impression of Mu Geng even better. For those wayward eldest ladies, Chen Luo is not particularly disgusted. But in this kind of world, their chances of survival are too low, and it is inevitable that they will be held back by their side.

"I don't know much about the current state of the world because I have lost a lot of memory, can you explain it to me?"

Chen Luo walked over to the sofa and sat on the sofa, and asked Mu Geng, who was sitting on the sofa opposite.

"Okay, it's a bit long, though. Nine years ago, countless protozoa suddenly fell from the sky, bringing great disasters to mankind, and the degree of destruction varies from country to country......"

Mu nodded gently, and then told Chen Luo some general information about the current situation......

"I see......"

Chen Luo nodded slightly, and then digested what Mu Geng had explained to him just now.

Nine years ago, a monster named by humans as a protogullar fell from the sky in an unusually large number. In the face of tens of thousands of huge monsters, although humans resisted, they achieved little success.

It's not that the aragut is invulnerable, and it's not that the alert system collapses in the first place. Although the vigilance system has been affected a lot, it is still possible to organize an effective resistance. The key is that although the protogulars can easily be wounded by knives and guns, they heal quickly, although they are not invulnerable, but they are immortal.

Protogulars also possess a variety of abilities, just like the giants Tatsuro encountered in the beginning, some are good at jumping, some are good at flying, and they are extremely powerful, with sharp teeth or claws. And it is divided into five levels, and the protozoa of LV5 can be said to be invincible, and the areas that have been invaded by them are basically not safe.

It is also the road to the end of the world, human beings have discovered a metal called holmium that can be used to cause unhealable wounds to protogastral animals, and it is with the help of holmium that the continuation of human beings can be barely guaranteed.

In addition to fighting the archatica, the greatest effect of holmium is to build the kind of stone monument that Chenluo has seen before, and they can effectively block the archeloids below stage 5 from the outside. Ordinary proto-intestinal animals will naturally feel fear and disgust when they see it, and it is precisely because of the megalithic monument that human beings have been able to continue to this day.

Those who have strong skills and strong abilities can register as police officers, and there is an IP ranking among police officers. In the past, the police were only the police themselves, but now the police are in teams of two.

When the Lv5 Protozoa endangers humans, Taurus and Virgo are killed by the two policemen who rank first and second, and by the way, the Lv5 is the stage 5 Protozoa named after the zodiac, but Cancer is temporarily vacant, and now there are nine left to continue to wander in the world.

The most feared thing about the original intestines is actually the original intestinal virus, which can rewrite the DNA of living organisms. Animalize its gastrulation. When the gastrula becomes animalized, it becomes unconscious. Become a berserk creature.

Pregnant women are not gastroid due to the invasion of the original intestinal virus, but the children they give birth to are uniformly female due to the rewriting of their DNA, and they are born with the original intestinal virus.

The components of the protozoan virus in their bodies will gradually increase, and when the erosion rate exceeds 50%, they will also be gastrated animalized, so they need to inject inhibitors. In contrast, they have also acquired the same powerful abilities as protozoans.

These girls are known as "cursed children". When they are in human form, they are actually no different from ordinary humans, and have normal rational thinking. It does not endanger humans for no reason like protozoa.

But after all, they have the existence of the original intestinal virus in their bodies, and they will also become intestinal animals when the erosion rate reaches 50%, so the vast majority of human beings are still very repulsive to these cursed children.

These children are part of the current police duo, known as the "initiators", and the other is the "promoters", most of whom are ordinary human beings. It is also the guardian of the initiator.

As for the area where Tatsuraku is currently located, it is called Edo Ward, and the supreme ruler is the Son of Heaven. Compared with the ability of the Holy Son of Heaven, on the contrary, the beautiful appearance is even more impressive.

Due to the chaos of neon, each area is also separated, and in addition to Edo Ward, there are places such as Sendai Ward. Other areas are simply occupied by proto-intestinal fauna and become uninhabited areas.

As for the rest of the world, their situation is not easy, because nine years ago the war of protozoa, humanity lost nearly 80% of its territory. At present, human beings are barely surviving with the help of giant stone tablets.

"It seems that if you want to become a police officer, you still need to find a cursed child to be the initiator, and I will become her guardian......"

Chen Luo frowned slightly, thinking about his next plan.

For the cursed child, Chen Luo naturally has no rejection. While he wasn't entirely incapable of understanding the fear of the unknown or known horrors of ordinary humans, Tatsuro didn't think these cursed children should be treated unfairly.

Birth is something they can't decide, and it's not their fault to be a cursed child. Moreover, cursed children play an important role in the survival of human beings now, and human beings should take care of them.

It's a pity that humans can only use inhibitors to delay their gastarization, otherwise, if there is any means to completely cut off their gastrulation, it can also effectively reduce the fear of humans for cursed children.

The reason why humans are afraid of them is actually to a greater extent because they are afraid that they will suddenly become intestinal animals without knowing when, and it is not unreasonable for ordinary humans to be afraid of them in the face of original intestines.

"Mr. Luo, what's wrong?"

Seeing Chen Luo frowning, Mu asked with some curiosity.

"Just call me Luo in the future. I'm thinking about the civilian police, and I hope to be able to become a civilian police ......."

Chen Luo loosened his brow and replied to Mu Geng.

"Hmm...... Become a police officer? This requires some registration, which is then arranged by the International Starter Watchdog to assign you the right starter. ”

Mu nodded lightly, thought for a while, and said.

"I'm going to set up a civilian security company, and you're in charge of it, are you interested?"

Chen Luo made a decision at the moment, and asked Mu Geng.

"Hmm...... Are you sure? ”

Mu Geng didn't immediately refuse or agree, but asked uncertainly.

Set up a civilian security company, in fact, Mu Geng also thought about this problem last night.

Kigen's greatest wish now is revenge, although there is no conclusive evidence of what happened last night, but she believes that it must be her family's dirty relatives who killed her parents for the sake of unsightly secrets.

If in order to take revenge, Mu needs to have his own strength, and he also needs a job that can guarantee his daily expenses. If you can have a civilian security company, you can improve your strength to a great extent. If you have enough police, you can also fight against the Tiantong family at the right time, and you can also have some self-protection capabilities.

Therefore, Chen Luo's proposal, Mu Geng's heart is still looking forward to it.

"Sure."

Chen Luo nodded and said seriously.

Personally, he doesn't really like to be in charge of the company or anything. Mu Geng is the eldest lady of the Tiantong family. I think that even if I have no management experience, I have a good talent. If you start small. A year or two of hard work should be able to manage well.

"I don't know why you trust me so much, but I won't let you down!"

Mu even said with some excitement, feeling that meeting Chen Luo was the greatest blessing after that incident.

At present, Mu Geng really needs some help, although she can also go back to Tiantong's house to seek some funding, at least she has not broken with her deceased parents, and she can rightfully share some property as her own starting capital. But Mu Geng no longer wants to have the slightest involvement with the people of the Tiantong family, and it is simply a good thing to have Chen Luo's help.

"Hmm. So without further ado, let's go and set up a civilian security company first, and then I'll apply to register as a police officer. ”

Chen Luo nodded and said decisively.

"Good! I'm in charge of leading the way, and I still know a little bit about that. ”

Mu Geng also nodded heavily and stood up from the sofa.

Since neither of them was carrying anything, the residence had prepared some simple daily necessities. So there was nothing to tidy up, and the anxious two immediately left the house and went to the relevant institutions.

"Full of death and despair......"

After leaving the house, standing on the street, Tatsuro looked up at the sky. There is a secret path with some emotion in my heart.

Compared to the original giant world, this world is even more lifeless. Pedestrians on the street rarely look happy. Even young boys and girls only smile faintly. As for the adults, many of them have sad countenances.

Although the world has settled down a little bit in recent years, especially in Edo Prefecture, which has been stable for several years, they still can't forget the fear that it could come at any time.

If the protozoan invades, even if they are lucky enough not to die under the protosagular, they will face other life or safety difficulties.

"Woo ......"

Suddenly, a string of little girl's crying sounds came into Chen Luo's ears, accompanied by a sound of beating, Chen Luo quickly shifted his gaze.

Around the corner, a poor red-eyed little girl was lying on the ground, and two young men were beating the little girl with sticks, laughing contentedly as they did.

The passers-by around saw that basically no one showed sympathetic eyes, some showed a gloating smile, some showed indifferent eyes, and some glanced at it and left in a hurry. There was no one who reached out to the two young men when they were bullying the little girl.

"Stop!"

Chen Luo shouted angrily, and his body instantly rushed.

"Bang Bang ......"

Two crisp sounds came, and I saw that the two young men who were bullying the little girl were kicked aside by Chen Luo one after another.

"What are you? Don't you know that this little bastard is a cursed child? She's a monster, don't stop us from beating monsters! ”

Since Chen Luo didn't use too much force, the two young men quickly stood up, clutched the chest that was kicked by Chen Luo, and shouted with some anger.

"Monsters? Hum! Isn't she a little girl in appearance? Did she do something to kill the families of you two bastards? ”

Chen Luo snorted coldly and asked in a cold tone, the chill emitted made the people around him tremble a few times.

Asked by Chen Luo like this, the two young men couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then they were shocked by Chen Luo's momentum, and immediately turned around and left.

The people around who were watching the excitement also quickly dispersed, leaving Chen Luo and the little girl and Mu Geng behind.

"It doesn't matter, right?"

Mu Geng also walked over at this time, glanced at Chen Luo with some admiration, and then gently helped the little girl up, patted the dust on the little girl's body and asked with concern.

"Thank you......"

The little girl's body at this time can be said to be dirty, with two tear stains on her cheeks, her eyes became red and swollen because of crying, and she looked at Mu Geng and Chen Luo in front of her with emotion.

For this little girl, she has been bullied and blinded by humans since she was born, and no one has ever cared for her, let alone helped her.

"Alas......"

Chen Luo looked at the poor little girl and sighed softly.

Although it is said that he saved her temporarily, it seems that this kind of thing is not uncommon, and the number of cursed children is also very large, and it is impossible for Chen Luo to help them all. And even now, Chen Luo has a headache about how to deal with it.

Judging from the abilities contained in her body, she is only a slightly stronger existence than ordinary people, and it is a trivial matter to lag behind if she partners with her, and Chen Luo's own strength can also deal with the protogastral animals below stage five and special stage four. But this kind of strength, even the stage three protosagulars are probably not able to match her. It's not realistic to partner with her anymore.

"Would you be interested in following me to take care of some simple cleaning and other chores, I can provide you with daily necessities and sponsor your schooling."

However, Chen Luo still couldn't bear to watch the little girl continue to sleep on the street and be bullied, so he asked immediately.

"Really?"

The little girl looked at Chen Luo with a timid gaze and asked.

"Really."

Chen Luo nodded lightly and said firmly.

"Thank you!"

The little girl smiled cutely, as if she could melt everything...... (To be continued......)
