Chapter 48 The Truth

Shen Yi's accusation was half sincere and half false. )

Of course, there is his dissatisfaction with the Tongtian Tower scam, and it is also a means for him to defend himself and divert attention.

After all, although he is not afraid of death, he will not be so stupid as to seek death. Crushing the beads is obviously an act that touches the manager's bottom line. If you don't take some measures to save yourself, you will be in trouble.

And what he chose was to use offense instead of defense, pointing at the opponent's vital point-now it is the space managers who have to consider how they should defend themselves.

At this moment, following his words, there was a long silence in the arena.

Until two more figures suddenly appeared, breaking the short silence.

One of them was Zisha.

Lan Yan frowned slightly, "Yellow Crane, Zi Sha, why are you two here?"

Zisha snorted coldly: "It's such a big deal, can I still not come? Since they already know so much, I can only talk to them about some things."

The past priest took off his tall hat and wore a black dress. He no longer looked like an old man, but a mighty man was replaced by him.

Lan Yan was surprised: "Is this the decision of the parliament?"

The manager named Huang He interfaced: "Of course. It is much better to lose the mystery than to be misunderstood. Oh, this is what the speaker said, so we will come here."

This is a middle-aged man, compared to the handsomeness of Lan Yan and the mightiness of Zi Sha, this man looks a bit feminine.

She looks feminine, but she speaks without femininity.

Then he turned his head to look at Shen Yi, and said: "We already know what happened just now. I really didn't expect you to see so many things. Do you know? Before you, the first person to discover the truth was an adventurer with difficulty three , and he is only one task world away, and will enter the fourth difficulty. You are the only one who discovered the truth on the second difficulty."

Balsa snorted coldly: "Unfortunately, it doesn't do him any good."

King Kong sneered: "I would rather die knowingly than live in ignorance."

He knew all this, and he was very angry with these space managers. He can understand why these guys want to lie to them, after all they need comrades-in-arms, but it doesn't mean King Kong will accept this fact.

Now that his face has been torn apart, he and Shen Yi will simply regret these superior guys head-on.

There is one thing Shen Yi said is right - a person who is at a dead end has nothing to fear.

Huang He didn't mind King Kong's tone, but said to Shen Yi: "There is something I need to correct in what you said just now."

"What?" Shen Yi asked.

"About the failure, the city was indeed defeated by the Zerg, but it was not the kind of failure you imagined."

"Zerg?" Shen Yi noticed the wording.

"It's just a title. To be honest, we don't know what kind of enemy we are facing, but these guys have strong reproductive ability, vigorous vitality, and great aggression, just like the Zerg in StarCraft , we just used this title. These guys are interstellar locusts, invading everywhere, devouring everything, if there is no bloody city, the earth may be finished. We guard the city, and at the same time guard the earth."

"So what are you trying to correct?"

Lan Yan answered first: "The war situation is not as bad as you said. In fact, as early as a hundred years ago, the city was completely defeated, but the Zerg has never been able to attack here.

This is a magical world, you should have seen it, it can give people endless power. In fact, the Supreme Council has been accumulating strength and looking for opportunities to fight back. "

Shen Yi nodded: "This is exactly what I am puzzled about. How can someone who can create such a world, turn people into people, and even possess countless future technological weapons, still be defeated?"

Everyone nodded.

That's right, even though the invading Zerg showed their formidable combat power, compared with the magic of the bloody city, they are still far behind.

Only God can create such a world!

True God!

If the Zerg can defeat God, that would be too incredible.

Gentle and coldly said: "There is only one explanation, and that is the so-called Supreme Council, not the creator of this world. They are just Nestlé doves, who have inadvertently owned this place. Of course, this has become their last stronghold, Since then, they have been capturing innocent people to come here, train them, and fight for them. Of course, they have a series of plans for this, including deceiving us that we can go home."

Lan Yan smiled bitterly: "No, no, this world was indeed established by them, but there were many factors that led to their defeat, some of which I don't know, some of which I can't say. But I can tell you, the reason why the Zerg can Entering here is not because they are strong enough to break through the defense here, but because we let them in on purpose."

Geer asked: "Is it the opening of the holy month once a year?"

Balsa interface: "That's not the holy moon, but the halo phenomenon when the space channel is opened. We let a group of invaders in and kill them. On the one hand, we can weaken their strength, on the other hand..."

He looked at Shen Yi, Shen Yi understood: "For that bead?"

Bauer nodded: "You Chinese call it Neidan, but in our opinion, it is a kind of energy crystal. Only powerful Zerg can have energy crystal, and the stronger the energy crystal is, the purer the energy crystal can be. more."

"You said that you can absorb its energy as it is written in the story?"

"No, no, no!" Bauer shook his head like a drum: "After these guys die, the energy dissipates, and the crystal itself is empty. But it is an excellent container, so it can be injected with new power ...which allows us to use it to make weapons specifically for use against the Zerg."

"A weapon specially used to deal with Zerg?" Shen Yi was startled, looking at the Eye of Hades in his hand.

Isn't this the weapon that claims to be specially designed to deal with Zerg?

Balsa has already sneered: "How do you think that thing came from?"

Shen Yi was startled: "Could it be..."

Lan Yan nodded: "That's right, it is made of the most powerful war beast of the Zerg. Actually, you have seen its corpse."

Immediately, Shen Yi's mind came up with the 100-meter-long bone monster like a giant dragon...

Bauer continued: "In fact, the Zerg is not as scary as you imagined, but those who can enter here are elites. And this one..." He pointed to the corpse of the giant beast: "It is a new species of Zerg, you know What does the energy crystal of a new species mean? There are more possibilities! It was specially put in by us, and we have been looking for it for three days. It finally appeared, but you gave the energy crystal of the only giant beast to destroyed!"

Speaking of this, Ball was once again furious.

The colonel was puzzled: "If this is the case, why do you still hide the eye of Hades?"

Zisha explained: "Because that's the way to inject energy, it must be buried deep in this world to extract energy. Shen Yi, when you use it, you should feel the powerful power contained in the Eye of Hades, right? "

"yes."

"That's the power of this world itself. We use energy crystals to absorb it and focus it on various skills so that this power can be extracted and used. You can imagine how much the strength will increase when an adventurer at the marshal level uses it. However, this kind of crystal has its limitations, neither can it be used in the mission world, nor can the user have these powers for a long time. Like the eye of Hades, it has three components. When the three pieces are combined, the user can The power of the Eye of Hades can be extracted freely, and after a while, the extracted energy will flow back into the Eye of Hades. Of course, there will be some loss in the process, but it is not a problem to use it more than a dozen times."

Lan Yan said regretfully: "But you used external force to use it forcibly when you only had a single piece. The result is that the extracted energy cannot return to the Eye of Hades... You squandered one of the most precious weapons. "

It is for this reason that every time the energy of the Eye of Hades is exhausted, it will be returned to the original place of Nether Valley and continue to inject energy until it is unearthed again a year later.

The problem is that those who use the Eye of Hades are usually marshal-level adventurers who have already entered the official battlefield, and only they can return the consumed Eye of Hades, but Shen Yi is only a level two adventurer and cannot trade with them. In this way, Metropolis would not be able to recycle the Eye of Hades, let alone recharge it. That is to say, for a long period of time, the weapon of the Eye of Hades will never appear on the battlefield outside the territory again—Shen Yi destroyed two artifacts in one go, which can be described as unprecedented.

Taking this into consideration, Shen Yi decided to sell it to the Evil Emperor at a lower price - at least it would allow the Eye of Hades to return earlier, wouldn't it?

As for whether he will find out that what he got is a waste product...God bless him never get other parts.

"Then why don't you use it yourself?" asked the colonel.

"It's the rule of the city, don't forget we were risk takers too. If we miss an opportunity, it's impossible to get it again."

King Kong immediately said: "This is exactly what I don't understand. Why do the rules you make restrict yourself?"

Zisha said regretfully: "The rules are not made by us, but its creators. It is a pity that after the rules are created, even the creators themselves can no longer violate them. We don't know why, we only know that the rules have changed. It cannot be modified, it can only be made up. It has become the iron law of this world, just like the law of the operation of all things, like the laws of physics, binding everyone in this world."

Shen Yi nodded: "I see."

As early as in the Terminator world, Shen Yi noticed that the space manager seemed unable to fix the loopholes in the rules. Perhaps it is precisely for this reason that the creator will establish the position of space manager to make up for the gap.

Hong Yang raised his hand like a student: "I also have a question. Since the bloody city can create people, why not just turn every newcomer into a strong one? Give each of us an attribute of more than ten thousand, and then A thousand double-s skills, how good? If you insist on making so many rules, you will be exhausted to earn some blood points, isn't it just asking for trouble for yourself?"

His tone was low, with over ten thousand attributes and thousands of skills, he almost didn't faint Colonel Shen Yi and the others.

Then Hong Yang added another sentence: "Don't tell me what to let the recruits improve themselves in battle and go through the test of life and death. One test of life and death is enough. Ten thousand powerful recruits are always much stronger than one veteran."

Lan Yan sternly replied: "You're right. In fact, the creators wanted to do the same, but unfortunately they couldn't do it. Because they don't have the ability to go out of this world without the experience of life and death. Only the ability that is truly mastered can be truly possessed. Oh, by the way, except for abilities, its biggest advantage is that as long as you have it, you can definitely take it away, because it is connected to your life, but other things will not work, you must truly master it to belong to yourself.”

The colonel asked: "So that's the case, what about the technological weapons?"

"You can take them away, but you also need to really master their use and integrate with them, so fighting is a link you must go through. The more you master, the stronger you will be."

it is as expected.

Shen Yi said: "Since you need soldiers, why do you let adventurers kill each other in the city?"

This question caused Lanyan Balsa and the others to look at each other several times.

After a while, Lan Yan replied: "That's not what we want. We never thought of letting adventurers kill each other in the quest world. In fact, we only hope that they can live as long as possible."

"Are you saying that like the free killing mode, killing adventurers and getting rewards from the other party has nothing to do with you? Isn't it that you are in bsp; "We sometimes issue some tasks similar to competitions, but we never advocate killing each other, after all You will all be our comrades-in-arms in the future. "

"So what causes missions that have us killing each other to exist?"

Bauer said angrily, "Didn't you just come into contact with her?"

Shen Yi was stunned.

That girl in white?

He blurted out, "What the hell is she?"

Balsa replied: "She is the devil incarnate!"

Ball replied: "She is the ghost of the city!"

Zisha replied: "She is a leak in the system!"

Lan Yan replied: "She is the bug of life!"

Huang He replied: "She is the virus of the program, the nightmare of the Supreme Council!"

—————————————

The space manager is gone.

The energy crystal has been destroyed, and because of the rules, they couldn't kill Shen Yi to vent their anger. To be able to answer questions patiently, to put it bluntly, it is still necessary to appease everyone's anger.

Of course, it is unavoidable to warn them not to reveal the truth—those who are already awake, let them be awake; those who are still asleep, let them continue to sleep.

However, for Shen Yi, there are still too many secrets that have not been unraveled.

For example, why can an existence like a city be defeated by the Zerg?

For example, why urban creators are also bound by the rules they establish themselves;

For example, who is that girl in white?

Shen Yi found sadly: he discovered the truth, but gained more secrets.

He was pondering, so why not others.

For most people, what they know today is enough to shock them, make them despair, and make them need time to digest, think, and regain their spirits.

Apart from Shen Yi, the only one who can keep calm is perhaps the Colonel.

Coming to Shen Yi's side and sitting down, the colonel threw a cigar to Shen Yi: "Try this."

Shen Yi put the cigar to his nose and smelled it, and said casually: "Havana cigars?"

"If you ask about the quality, yes! But if you ask about the origin, no."

Shen Yi laughed.

The colonel lighted it up for himself very leisurely, took a sip, and said:

"I have a question to ask."

"Say."

"Why did you decide to come and fight with me at that time? I don't believe you came to help me just because I promised you, you are not that kind of person."

Shen Yi replied: "The reason why I help you is very simple. You and I are both human beings, and the Zerg race is a different kind. This may be a major feature of life, a strong xenophobic psychology. From villages, to towns, and then to countries, they are all so."

From Shen Yi's point of view, although he and the colonel have regional differences between the east and the west, they are considered enemies in normal times, but when they face foreign enemies together, they become their own people. It is not surprising that he would make such a choice.

"Like Xie Rongjun?" the colonel asked.

"Yes, just like Xie Rongjun. There is an old saying in human beings that wars will never end because there are no foreign enemies on the earth. Now that we have a common enemy, of course we must put aside our hatred and fight side by side. Even if I die in your hands in the end , is much better than annihilation.”

The colonel was finally moved, thought for a while and asked, "What about the current one? Your current strength can kill us all, why don't you do it?"

Shen Yi laughed loudly, and patted the colonel on the shoulder: "At least it's a fight, why be so ruthless. Speaking of which, I took advantage of you, and you didn't get any benefits. If I took advantage, I would kill them all, leaving no room , It’s too arrogant to be a human being. I still advocate staying on the front line in everything, there is no need to go too far.”

The colonel was completely dumbfounded.

It took him a long time before he said, "People like you are rare."

Although he is a strong person with four difficulty levels, but what is strong is only his strength, not his heart. Therefore, listening to Shen Yi's words at this moment, he is just like that Zhou Hao, who listened carefully to Shen Yi's words without any intention of underestimating them.

But this is not to say how humble he is, but after going through this contest, he already has a new understanding of Shen Yi. Let go of your preconceived notions and talk about it, and it will happen naturally.

If it had been a few hours ago, he could have slapped Shen Yi over with a single slap, and it would be useless for Ren Shenyi to talk like a hype.

At this moment, the two chatted together, and they talked about a lot of interesting things. They also exchanged some knowledge and understanding of this world, told some stories about the worlds of various missions, and told some secrets between adventurers.

After all, the colonel is a veteran strongman of the fourth difficulty level, and his knowledge and knowledge are much better than Shen Yi. Therefore, most of the time, he is the one who is talking and Shen Yi is listening. For Shen Yi, this knowledge alone has benefited him a lot.

Of course, Shen Yi's unconstrained thinking that day also taught the colonel a lot. Especially when the colonel talked about some of his experiences in the mission world, Shen Yi would always propose another solution to the dangers he encountered at that time. He was amazed at how often these lines of thought were simpler and more effective than those the Colonel had ever used.

Only then did he discover that the battle he was once proud of could have paid less and gained more.

He didn't notice some problems in his behavior before, but after talking with Shen Yi, he gradually discovered it, which will be of great benefit to his future promotion.

The more we talked, the more in-depth the colonel finally changed the subject:

"Do you know how I knew about the extraterritorial war?"

"Want to hear from you."

"Hehe." The colonel lit himself a second cigar before saying, "I entered the fourth difficulty four months ago. At that time, I was still dreaming that in another year at most, I would be able to Enter the Tower of Tongtian and return to Earth. Until one day, I was wandering in the wilderness... just wandering casually, and unexpectedly found a stone tablet."

"Stone tablet? You mean stone tablet?"

"Yes. The stele was recorded by an adventurer, and it recorded some things about this world."

"Does that stele have a name, called the Third Epoch?"

The colonel was taken aback: "So you also know about the third era."

"I just heard about it from my friends, but I never had a chance to see it."

"It was at that time that I learned some things. But what I knew was not all what they said."

The colonel's voice suddenly lowered, and he whispered close to Shen Yi's ear: "Shen Yi, don't believe what those guys say, they are deceiving us, eight out of ten of their words are false, and they are not worthy of trust! This world There is a problem, a big problem, far from being as simple as what we see. They deliberately make you think that you have discovered the truth, but the real truth may still be far away from us."

"You seem to know something else?"

"You're not the only one with access to Urban Ghost."

Shen Yi's heart tightened: "Do you know what she is?"

The colonel replied leisurely:

"She's an angel incarnate."

"She is a living legend."

"She's the key to the way home."

"She is the only clue to the truth."

"She is our last light of hope in this hopeless world!"
