Chapter 215: The Gift of the City (5,000 words)
Alliance, Mr. World, Gifts, Deep Eyes, Schadenfreude Smile......
It's hard to describe the feeling, when the words "Mr. World" in the mouth of the girl in front of him came out, Xiao Huan suddenly felt a tremor from instinct, as if at such an instant, he approached the core truth without limit, but at the same time as approaching the truth, he felt a great panic, and then, the invisible force instantly repelled, and the surrounding world collapsed.
Everything that was originally extremely real, the warm little coffee shop, the clear girl, and the soft light, at this moment, suddenly shattered into chaotic pieces, accompanied by a kind of melting pot-like dissolution, all the voices in Xiao Huan's ears shattered, and everything in his eyes began to lose focus rapidly, and he had a feeling that he was in a dream and was ready to leave the dream.
An infinite sense of depression came over him, and when he felt the power of breathing again, his body suddenly shook slightly.
Everything around him came into view, he was still standing next to the ruined Guard Department building, the night that was enough to drown everything around him had completely faded, the strangers in the city were still there at the end of the night, and there was no bright coffee shop across the street.
The girl with her eyes so deep in the coffee shop that there is no end to it naturally does not exist.
But inexplicably, Xiao Huan felt that the eyes she was looking at her were still there, throwing them from all directions.
Xiao Huan raised his head violently to find the source of this gaze, but failed.
Because when he looked up, he saw only the towering concrete buildings around him, and only the city.
Only not far from him, in front of the guard hall building, there is a sculpture in a fountain, at this time, the sculpture, two chubby little hands, is holding in front of him, and between the small hands, there is a beautiful box, at first glance it is very ordinary, but the box seems to have a supernatural power, when Xiao Huan's eyes are contacted, it seems that he can feel something beating inside the box.
"What happened?"
Before Xiao Huan could clarify everything, a panicked cry suddenly sounded around him.
The chairman of the Night Bottom City, Chairman Cui, took a deep breath and shouted out in a panicked voice.
However, the other people around seemed to know nothing about it, and as Xiao Huan's senses returned, they could also hear their noise, and most of the strangers in Night City were still trapped in the horror of seeing Xiao Huan kill Bai Cheng just now, and some people were shouting angrily: "No matter how arrogant you are President Xiao, you can't kill people at will on the territory of our Night City at will." ”
"Fight with him and see how many ...... we can kill"
"Up, you all go up, the president goes up first......"
“……”
The noise of this group of people also made Xiao Huan slightly sober, and his ability to explode his mind gave him time to force himself to calm down.
The keenness of the insight allowed him to get several key points.
Just now, these people were still shocked by their summoning of Night Bottom City to appear, but now they only remember that Bai Cheng was killed by themselves?
A part of their memory, erased?
"Shut ...... up"
But in the midst of this chaos, someone shouted angrily, and unexpectedly, it was Chairman Cui.
He roared at everyone, and then turned his head to look at Xiao Huan, it seemed that he was a little out of control, his face was pale, his eyes flickered, and he looked at Xiao Huan fixedly, and his voice trembled slightly: "Xiao ...... President Xiao, just ...... Is there something going on? ”
Xiao Huan has forced himself to calm down with great perseverance.
met Chairman Cui's eyes, nodded slightly, and said, "There is a fault in your memory?" ”
This is not an answer, but a rhetorical question.
But after hearing this rhetorical question, Chairman Cui suddenly had a more frightened expression, and subconsciously glanced at it.
His eyes were quick, but Xiao Huan could see that he was sweeping the armed men with guns around him.
These aborigines, with the arrival of the stranger, under the interweaving of spiritual power, were forcibly turned off their brains, they are now just like puppets, holding the gun in a daze, but they have lost all their perception and thinking ability, and they will recover immediately when the stranger leaves, but in their memory, there is only a little trance, and they don't know what happened.
Those who are more sensitive will realize that there is a gap in their memory.
The sluggish ones probably only realized that they had lost time when they compared their watches afterwards.
But this state has always only appeared in aborigines......
I can't describe the shock in President Cui's heart at this moment, he seems to know from a slight knowledge, realizes some fearful things, raises his head suddenly, glances into the depths of the city, and immediately retracts his gaze, and even squeezes out a reluctant smile on his face, which is the kind of deliberate use of a smile to show that there is no big event, and said with a slight trembling: "Haha, haha, look at it, this thing is ......"
"It's just a joke, why can't you get off the stage so much?"
"President Xiao, this is just a simple transaction, you give points, we will help you get the heart that does not quench, what a reasonable thing, it's all to blame on that greedy guy, actually playing this little trick in front of the famous President Xiao......"
"Thankfully, he's dead, too, and don't worry, I'm reluctant to buy him again."
"President Xiao, our deal ......"
“……”
"There's no deal left."
Xiao Huan suddenly whispered, and glanced at him at the same time.
President Cui's face was embarrassed, and he even begged for mercy: "President Xiao, you ......"
"The deal is done......"
Xiao Huan was not in the mood to squeeze him at this time, just sighed lowly, looked up, and the spiritual force field around him suddenly opened, Xiao Huan had no intention of deliberately maintaining the original perspective at this time, so he also saw that the three thorny dogs all appeared from his side, cheering and jumping, following their gaze, they saw the box and immediately rushed over......
There are three dogs, but only one box.
The three dogs even squeezed me in the middle, and I squeezed you and snatched it.
In the end, it was Erha who ran the fastest, and rushed to the door of the guard hall with a whoosh, next to the fountain......
…… Then he turned his head and went into the bakery, which was left unattended because of the chaos around him, and picked up the largest piece.
The Count and the ghost were stunned for a moment, and then the ghost took a step faster and picked up the box.
Attentively sent it to Xiao Huan, wagging his tail constantly.
"Goo-dong...... Gollum ...... Gollum ......"
The box was close to him, and Xiao Huan could clearly feel the beating sound of something inside.
He pursed the corners of his mouth slightly, and was silent for a long time, before reaching out to take the box, and the moment he slowly lifted the lid, his heart beat a few times rapidly, although he had already known the answer, but when he saw this thing, he couldn't help but feel a little frightened: it was a bright red heart, which was placed in a cardboard box, beating on its own, covered with a faint flame.
Does not extinguish the heart.
Everything I had just met with that girl was like an illusion and unreal.
But this heart really appeared in front of him and gave it to himself as a gift.
Well, everything that just happened is true......
I really saw the girl, or rather, the mysterious source of Nightfall.
But what did she mean by what she said to herself?
Why did she take the initiative to ally herself with herself, why did she call herself ......
…… Mr. World?
……
"Don't extinguish your heart?"
"That box contains an unquenchable heart? How did he get it? ”
"After checking, the heart has disappeared from the museum...... It's just, how did it get into his hands? ”
“……”
The strangers in Night City were even more shocked than Xiao Huan, the moment they saw the box, they felt that everything was unbelievable, obviously, just a few seconds ago, they were still arguing with Xiao Huan, and they also saw him kill one of their companions, and they were thinking about whether to make this transaction, but why, in the blink of an eye, the transaction was completed, and the other party got this thing?
All this is too unreasonable......
"Xiao ...... President Xiao ......"
In the midst of everyone's consternation, Chairman Choi spoke, as if he had verified something, and his eyes were full of horror.
frightened, but he could only try to pretend to be indifferent, accompanied by a smiling face: "We...... Let's borrow a step to speak? ”
Xiao Huan glanced at him and felt that there was no need for this.
He knew what this Chairman Choi had discovered, but he had already communicated with Nightfall City, so there was no need to waste time on him.
Just as he was about to say no, Chairman Choi said, "Anyway, I have to return those points to you." ”
“……”
Xiao Huan nodded and said lightly: "Okay." ”
Under the eyes of President Cui, the strangers in Night City could only step aside first, and some people took a step to speak, so they needed to go to a place where no one was, but when the two presidents borrowed a step to speak, it meant that the others had to leave, leaving them a space to talk alone, and it was only at this time that Chairman Cui finally stopped hiding the horror on his face, took a deep look at the box, and said in a low voice:
"Did you really see it?"
“……”
Xiao Huan knew what he was referring to, and looked at him strangely: "Is it strange?" ”
"I've heard that the will of your Night City has already appeared in front of you."
“……”
"That's just an illusion......"
Chairman Choi lowered his voice and shouted, "Moreover, only I have seen ......"
Xiao looked at him steadily, and said, "Don't lower your voice, I believe that no matter what we talk about, she can hear it." ”
President Cui was stunned for a moment, and suddenly said, "Okay, the points will be refunded to you, and you will not be allowed to pass by." ”
“?”
Xiao Huan was suddenly a little curious, looked at him and said, "You also realized the problem just now, and now you don't want to ask?" ”
"I've been in this world for too long."
Chairman Cui also looked at Xiao Huan and said in a low voice: "Because I have lived for a long time, my survival experience is also a little richer than others, I know what not to explore deeply, I know how to make my survival better...... That's the points, only the points can bring us a sense of security, and you, President Xiao, I really got to know you today......"
"I've read the old aunt's post, but I didn't believe that there would be such crazy people before......"
"But you're ......"
He paused for a moment, as if he was brewing what to say, before he said, "...... You're usually too low-key in Blackgate, aren't you? ”
"It's a post again......"
Xiao Huan thought to himself, what is he talking about in the post?
Old Aunty ...... That's a familiar name!
But when he looked at this Chairman Cui, he also understood something in his heart.
Strangers, too, have a philosophy of survival.
In fact, just now, Chairman Cui has already felt some key things, that is, their brains are "turned off", under normal circumstances, the aboriginal brains will be turned off, which is also the reason why strangers believe in their own cognition and regard aborigines as puppets, a group of people who don't know what forces they are dominated by, and even their brains can be turned off anytime and anywhere......
…… Can you be considered a real person?
But once a stranger discovers that his brain could be shut down at any time, how big of the impact will be?
Chairman Choi is aware of this problem.
But his first reaction was to refuse to think deeper?
Xiao Huan was powerless to analyze what this represented as a stranger's thoughts for a while, and could only show respect.
sighed: "In that case, you gave me the 80,000 points that I was cheated of, and I will leave." ”
"Good ......"
Chairman Cui agreed casually, and suddenly reacted violently: "What 80,000 points?" ”
Xiao Huan glanced at him in surprise and said, "You people in Night City deceived me of 80,000 points, don't you know?" ”
"How can there be so many!"
Chairman Choi roared angrily, "I only received 40,000 from him!" ”
"You Nightfall City is very unreal......"
Xiao Huan suddenly frowned, squinted his eyes at Chairman Cui and said, "I came to trade with you Night City with sincerity, but you first deceived me and shirked the responsibility, but since you just said that it was a misunderstanding, then it should be regarded as a misunderstanding, but now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, then I just want you to return the 80,000 points that you cheated from me, and you still don't admit it?" ”
"You ......"
Chairman Choi was choked uncomfortably all of a sudden, and his chest rose and fell violently a few times.
Xiao Huan was very calm, looking at him fixedly, and even his gaze was slightly raised.
It's like looking at the city.
Chairman Choi was like a child who was threatened to find his parents, and after his chest rose and fell for a long time, he finally compromised:
"Okay, I'll get you some of it!"
“……”
It's said to be a make-up, but the account is still quite fast.
It can be seen that Night City does not welcome him, and Xiao Huan has no intention of being verbose with them, but he just asked Xiao Si to notify Lin Bo and his party and prepare to withdraw from Night City, and at this moment, Lin Bo is frowning and beating the cannon that releases the Void Braided Light, he doesn't know what is wrong, it is clear that the Void Braided Light that can produce turmoil on the entire Night End City has been able to produce turmoil, why did it suddenly malfunction?
And when Xiao Huan was separated from the strangers of Nightfall City, everything around him immediately resumed operation.
The surrounding armed forces were even in a state of extreme tension, but before they could be embarrassed, there were several black cars, rushing in, with a serious, nervous man in black on it, representing the high-level of Night Bottom City, inviting Xiao Huan to communicate.
"No need, ask them to ask the Black Forest if they have any questions."
But Xiao Huan refused, and just casually shirked: "My official business has been completed." ”
In the original plan, Xiao Huan had the intention of meeting with the top management of Night Bottom City, after all, in his preliminary plan, since he had verified the falsehood of the stranger world, then it showed the truth of the aboriginal perspective, in this case, his communication with the aborigines of Night City was very necessary, and he could obtain some extremely important materials and information for himself.
But after talking to the mysterious girl, he had dispelled that idea.
Aboriginal......
Outlander......
Yourself, it's not time to fully trust either side.
On the contrary, he had an intuition in his heart, perhaps, the one who could really give him the answer was actually Black Gate City.
Fortunately, this time I have successfully obtained the unquenchable heart.
The investigation into the city of Black Gate can begin.
"Brother Xiao, let's just leave?"
After notifying Lin Bo and the others, Xiao Si looked unsatisfied.
"Of course, you can't really destroy Nightfall City."
Xiao shouted: "You haven't been to school much, so you don't understand the truth of being a man and leaving a line." ”
Xiao Si looked confused and thought, "We have caused so much damage to people, shouldn't we give some compensation?" ”
It was Xiao Huan, who suddenly thought of something, and said to Xiao Si with a smile: "Xiao Si, before I gambled with the Hell Organization, I borrowed two hundred points from you, and now that I think about it, these two hundred points can only be regarded as your investment in me, so it is reasonable for me to share some of you...... Although I just bought the heart and was cheated out of a lot, I still decided to give you 10,000 points......"
“…… Don't tell Soft, I'm afraid she'll be sad. ”
“……”
"Ten thousand?"
Xiao Si couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he heard this, and looked at Xiao Huan admiringly: "Brother Xiao, you are too generous......"
"Even if you don't give me points, I'm willing to follow you......"
“……”
Anyway, I have my own hands and feet, and it's not that I can't be corrupt.
Xiao Huan listened to Xiao Si's statement, and also respected Xiao Si, and both of them were very satisfied with each other.
When Xiao Huan was about to leave Night End City, he looked back and could see that the city was still deep in the night, but for some reason, he was probably dazzled, as if he saw that when he entered the station, the whole city became virtual in the night.
There was a certain girl, quietly looking at herself, waving goodbye.
……
……
Of course, Xiao Huan didn't know that although he left, the turmoil in Night City had not passed.
President Cui summoned all the strangers, his expression gloomy, and he was sad and angry: "I know that you are not convinced, and I am not convinced, don't ask me why I suddenly decided not to deal with him, that guy surnamed Xiao is simply a devil...... You just need to know that he is terrible that even I can't imagine, let alone have the ability to deal with it......"
"Now, we need to face another, more important problem."
“…… That Shengsheng surnamed Xiao extorted 100,000 points from me, you can take a look and share the loss. ”
"Of course, if you are not convinced, you can also go to the forum to confide in it!"
