Chapter 1 Stunned Young Girl

Next Chapter

Is it there?

In the blurred vision, the staircase and the wall have become one.

Even though she chose the middle of the day, when the monsters were at their least active, and was coated with the silver-green pulp that the monsters hated, and remained cautious like never before, Ellie's body was still covered in shocking knife marks, burns, and bruises, and the blood oozing through the plain coarse cloth on her body.

For an ordinary country girl like Ellie, even if she is a skeleton soldier, it is a life-threatening existence. Not to mention the Tower of Oblivion, where the monsters are swarmed.

Stumbling on her feet, Ellie fell to the top of the stone steps, her numb body no longer feeling pain.

Raising her head slightly, looking at the vague light above the stone steps, Ellie took a deep breath and struggled to climb forward.

First order.

Two orders.

Third order.

Fearful of the prophecy of the imminent arrival of the ancient monster in the village, the knight and his soldiers fled to a safe place early, abandoning the village that had once been his fiefdom. The villagers also packed up their fines and fled to other places.

The only people who remain in the village are the poor families who have nowhere to go and the elderly who are too old to walk.

A haze of despair hung over the village.

Ellie, who lost her parents since she was a child, refuses her elderly grandmother's request to let her run away alone, putting all her hopes of saving the village on "finding the legendary hero".

But judging from the current state, it doesn't seem to be a good result......

All sorts of thoughts flashed through Ellie's mind, and although her brain was in chaos and was on the verge of collapse, the belief that "if you find that hero, you can save the village" still supported her as she reached her limit, climbing step by step to the top of the ladder to the top of the Tower of Oblivion.

At last...... First order?

Ellie's outstretched hand pressed to the ground, a different sense of distance than expected and the cold sensation from the floor made her head sober a little.

Arrived?

The originally scattered gaze was concentrated again, and the scene of this layer appeared in front of him.

The tall warrior in gorgeous armor stood in front of Ellie, and his smile like sunshine seemed to tell Ellie, "You've worked hard, leave it to me next," and the giant sword behind his back that had beheaded many monsters fluttered like a tassel.

is a legendary hero.

Ellie felt so warm, so warm that she felt sleepy.

It seems like...... It's like being held in my grandmother's arms...... Is this the hero's advanced healing magic......

Poof.

Behind my ears came the sound of a sharp object piercing something.

The pain came back to Ellie.

But she didn't even have the strength to go back and confirm.

The moment before Ellie slowly closed her eyes, the legendary hero still dissipated like a bubble.

......

What's moving?

Su Wen, who was sleeping soundly in a pile of dry bones, raised his eyelids.

A young girl was lying on the floor outside her cell, her long flaxen hair scattered all over her body, and the red blood gathered into a puddle beneath her—she looked dead.

The insect-shaped monster entrenched in the ceiling wriggled its tentacles, ready to enjoy this long-lost "delicious meal".

"Rare Guest......"

Su Wen looked at the girl's corpse and couldn't help but sigh like this.

He hadn't been thrown here for an unknown amount of time, and although he could occasionally hear the fighting from downstairs before, the only one who had gone up to this floor was this dead girl.

Then after a while, the adventurers who have come after them will clear this place, and then they will be able to get out themselves. But the strength of the insect outside is quite strong, and if you want to go out, you probably have to wait for a while.

"It's a shame to die at such a young age. ”

Although he thought so, Su Wen couldn't do anything, even if he was a traverser.

Before the crossing, Su Wen was a supercomputer maintenance worker, and during a maintenance, he was brought to this world by the explosion of the computer due to an accident.

Like other traversers, Su Wen also gained special abilities because of the crossing - speaking of this, Su Wen had a headache - because it was not "Su Wen" who crossed over.

To be precise, it should be a mixture of "Su Wen's consciousness" and "the terrifying electrical energy that has produced a qualitative change to support the operation of the supercomputer, mixed with the huge heat energy generated during the explosion and other miscellaneous energies".

This product used the information obtained from Su Wen's subconscious and supercomputer database to evolve itself, and added the influence of the laws of this world itself, thus forming the current "Su Wen" who is locked in a prison cell and has a human form.

The worm-shaped monster outside the cell had already rolled the girl's body up to the ceiling with its tentacles, and the crunching sound from the tentacles was full of pleasure.

Su Wen sighed, picked up the dry bones on his body, stood up, and stretched out his right hand.

Tongues of blazing fire burst out of his palms and rolled towards the cell door. The wooden door was gradually charred by the heat, and as the flames continued, the carbonized part began to glow, like red-hot coals.

Then Su Wen withdrew the flame in his right hand, stepped forward, and kicked the cell door, blowing up several pieces of fire chips.

But the cell door didn't move.

Su Wen lost count of how many times he had tried this, no matter what kind of magic and martial arts he had, he couldn't break the wooden prison door. Even if he yells in prison, the bug just acts as if it doesn't exist.

After a few seconds, the blazing light slowly faded, revealing the door as it was, as if the scorching had never existed.

Those disappearing carbons and blazing lights are like ...... In-game textures.

That's right, it's textures.

Because the ability that Su Wen got was given by the self-evolution of the energy body, the "setting" that existed in the game of the previous world!

Spells and skills from different titles, a variety of unique special settings, and even status bars such as the "Hunger Bar" that can be seen in the inner view.

This ability almost made it impossible for him to tell if the world was real or just a game with a high degree of realism.

Prior to this, all of Su Wen's activities were not subject to such restrictions, whether it was a wind blade or an ice pick, or healing and summoning, these spells could get "effective" feedback.

It's just that in this cell, all his actions with a sense of "destruction" have become ineffective.

It's like some "story modes" that force inaction in some games, but this "story mode" doesn't have NPCs that can trigger events. ANOTHER WAY OF THINKING, IT CAN PROBABLY BE REGARDED AS A BUG.

What made Su Wen relieved was that although his hunger had bottomed out, there was no sign of starvation. Hunger is such a thing, after being numb, it's just like that, just get used to it.

The insects ate quickly, and in a few moments, several tentacles wrapped in white bones reached out—the bones were as clean as the last look of a maiden.

It turns out that this thing doesn't eat bones......

Su Wen observed this huge insect, although he had been with it for so long, this was the first time Su Wen had seen it eat. And this bug rarely comes close to this cell, except for wriggling on the ceiling.

The tentacles of the large bugs gradually rolled towards the cell.

Su Wen felt that something was about to happen, and his heartbeat actually began to speed up slightly.

The bug's dexterous tentacles rolled up the door, and then squeaked the door open, and several other tentacles wrapped in the girl's bones reached forward and threw the bones in the cell, and the bones scattered on the floor made a rattling sound.

Then the tentacles closed the cell door......

Then, the door flew.

Su Wen flew up the moment before the door was sewn and kicked the door.

Go out...... Came out?

Before the insect monster and Su Wen could react, they stood on the spot, and there was an awkward silence for two seconds on the top floor of the Tower of Oblivion.

Su Wen was surprised that this monster would actually open the prison door.

The bug was surprised at why his toilet suddenly exploded and flew out a lump of undigested excrement.

In the next second, the insect was the first to react, and countless tentacles stabbed at Su Wen.

However, it is of no avail.

Su Wen returned the favor with the same number of icicles.

Each of the bug's tentacles was pinned to the ceiling by an ice pick, unable to move, and the naruminer kept rubbing against each other, letting out a piercing wail.

"City Breaker!"

Shouting that he didn't know which fixed move in the work, Su Wen smashed his fist on the wall next to him, the wall cracked in response, and a big hole was opened, and the sunlight outside spilled in, and the mountain clouds in the distance and the rivers and forests in and out were reflected in Su Wen's vision.

The long-awaited, refreshing fresh air.

Su Wen stood at the entrance of the cave, hesitated for a moment, turned back again, looked at the pile of white bones in the cell and began to be in a daze.

In a daze, an ice pick inserted into the central nervous system of the bug, ending its annoying chirping and life.

After thinking for a while, Su Wen summoned a gust of wind to blow away the debris and dust on the floor, condensed the blood of the insects on his hands, and drew a circle of magic arrays.

After this series of preparations was completed, Su Wen used the ability of "can move items without using both hands and just eye contact without consuming magic power", took out the bones of the girl just now and placed them on the magic array.

Su Wen remembered that this ability came from the function of holding down E in a certain game to drag animals.

One spell after another lit up from the magic circle, and then, the corpse of the insect still frozen on the ceiling seemed to be attracted to the magic circle, and fell into the magic circle, under the catalysis of the runes, wriggling, decomposing, recombining, and accompanied by splashes of juice and the burning smell of the cuticle and exoskeleton.

Su Wen smacked his lips, although the picture was a little curious, but it was still within his acceptability.

This is a forbidden spell magic from a certain game, and Su Wen can clearly see that the number of remnant uses of this magic has changed from 1 to 0.

After about ten minutes, the huge body of the insect disappeared, and in its place was a female body. Although the skin was delicate, it was a little too pale, and the face of this body was exactly the same as the girl just now, and even the faint freckles maintained their original number and position.

The girl opened her eyes, sat on the ground helplessly, glanced around, and then saw Su Wen.

Su Wen also looked at the girl.

After a brief period of confusion, the girl's memories began to come back, including who she was, why she was here, and what happened to her after coming here...... Even death, and the process by which her body began to be reshaped by strange pieces of flesh after death, was clearly imprinted in her head.

The girl's eyes gradually filled with tears, and after crossing a critical point, she could no longer hold back and began to cry.

"Ugh. ”

Su Wen, who was not good at dealing with this kind of thing, had no choice but to watch from the sidelines, thinking about whether he should step forward and say something.

For example, "put on your clothes first" or something......
