Chapter 493 King Player Game

In the center of the city of Minas, more than 113,000 people fainted. They were being taken back to the nest by the chimera ants.

Except for the king, the chimera ant army had a clear division of labor. There were more than 100 main guards and corps leaders guarding the throne.

The construction ants rebuilt the scene around the throne. The construction Cairo ants that were transformed into chimera ants played a very good role. In less than half an hour, the new palace was completed.

The palace where the throne was located was majestic and silent.

There was no extra decoration, only the thick nanmu pillars and beams and the exquisitely crafted doors and windows showed the solemnity in the original color of the wood.

The only special thing was the walls, which were covered with creeping flesh and blood and pipes. Their function was to transport energy to the king.

Everything was built according to the aesthetics of the queen ant.

When the queen ant gave birth to the chimera queen ant, some of her memories, hobbies, and aesthetics would more or less affect the "children" she gave birth to.

Now, the supreme masterpiece of her children has sat on the throne.

The ant king.

It was born to be the most terrifying one.

But the players don't know whether this flesh-and-blood warrior who was destroyed by the rose poison in "Hunter x Hunter" can adapt to this world.

Ryan and others are also afraid that their king will be killed by "humans" like in the original book, so they mobilize all their strength to make the king as "mature" as possible.

There are accidents.

Cam died on the top of the tower. It was the king who pushed Cam's magic back at the critical moment, which killed this troublesome "End" player.

The players of "Endless Corridor" disappeared.

But there are a lot of bombs in the tower and the city center.

They must have buried them.

Ryan is undoubtedly most worried about the champion who almost single-handedly crushed "Death" and "Eternal Life" in the "World War", and later defeated "End".

They have investigated all of Li Nuo, know the dispute between him and the high-dimensional demon, and know Lillian's attention to him. People who dare not ignore by big people must also be big people. Even if he looks like a down-and-out painter, artists can stir up the wind and clouds.

So he turned his attention to Mingnv.

"Increase the scope of exploration."

Mingnv, the female demon from "Demon Slayer", is very similar to Victor next to Malger next to Ryan.

She has the rhythm of changing space, and the exploration rhythm she releases can reach an entire country, or even further.

However, Mingnv cannot reach space, nor can she handle the area under the protection of [Realm of Reason].

Time passed by.

The players stood numbly under the throne, their faces stiff.

One hour after occupying the city center.

The cat-eared elf Charikos released his [Barrier Fruit] power. The "Royal Palace" was covered in an indestructible huge shield, and even hot weapons could not destroy this place.

"Still can't find it?"

Charikos laughed.

"If it doesn't work, forget it. As long as we don't leave the king, everything else doesn't matter."

"Short-sighted, don't leave the king... but this place is not enough for the king."

Du Jiu said, and then... he paused.

Because the corner of Mingnv's mouth burst into blood.

The ant nest began to shake.

The hall was affected by a terrifying energy, like a demon's claw grabbing the air, depriving everyone of the ability to breathe.

The king finally walked out of his body.

Seeing this scene, a hundred chimera ants knelt down, and only the four players on the upper level who served as guards knelt on one knee.

No one dared to look at the king's body.

"Don't be nervous... I am still weak."

The king's voice was not cold, but gentle.

It looked outside the gate, where there were corpses lying in all directions, perhaps fifty, perhaps a hundred, or even more.

The dried blood was splashed on the brick and stone floor, and there were red and black spots almost everywhere.

The corpse was shriveled, which was the appearance caused by the energy being sucked out.

Ryan lowered his head and said, "The construction ants haven't allocated the kitchen yet. The creatures outside are all in a state where their energy is sucked dry by the magic bugs of the queen ant. Their power will form a magic factor and finally be given to your body. Wisdom, mind, knowledge, everything will be integrated with you."

"Then, I will not be like that ant king."

The cold voice of the king made all the players present feel nervous.

"You already know."

"Yes."

The king sat down.

"When the queen ant was pregnant with me, she gave me part of her memory."

The original ant king was extremely tyrannical and emotionless when he was born. Although he learned very quickly, when he understood what emotion was, he had been killed by humans with targeted means.

This ant king does not need to learn anything.

Its mother, Meng Zang Jianan, has handed everything to it.

"Then...the flesh and blood of those elites..." Ryan hesitated. They prepared a lot of back-ups, such as making the elites the king's food, so that the king would have the ability to think independently when he was born, so that he would not be deceived as a toy.

"It's okay, it's delicious."

The king was comforting his guards, which would never happen in the original story.

Ryan understood one thing at this moment. When Kam was in the isolated world, he was anxious and ordered Mingnu to do something in order to force the king to give instructions. At that time, Ryan was determined to die. Theoretically, the king would not let this disobedient guy live, but the king stopped at the moment he was about to kill him.

This king... gentle?

At this moment, a slim female player wearing a revealing nurse uniform asked softly: "Can I treat you?"

"Oh, I am indeed uncomfortable..." Wang paused and said: "But forget it, these nutrient delivery tubes you made are enough, and my body's self-healing ability is very good, no need to worry."

Speaking of this, Wang paused again.

"Is the title of I... not good... I am OK."

No one dared to say anything.

"I, my body longs for a kind of power... It's a strange feeling."

"You can try to use your abilities now, such as magic." Ryan said.

"No, I mean things in the spiritual realm." Wang said: "I saw a lot of things when I was in the queen ant's body..."

"Movies and TV."

"Games."

"History."

"Science."

"Magic."

"And, players."

The chimera ants said nothing, and the players felt a chill on their backs.

"Death Corridor?"

"..."

"End of Corridor..."

"Wang..."

"Wait until I finish."

Wang interrupted his guards. No one dared to look at him, but the indifference of knowing everything was even more frightening.

"Let me ask you a question first. What do you think of the queen ant?"

Wang pointed at Ryan. He didn't speak, but the breath he emitted let Ryan know that he was turned over.

"The queen ant...is the creature that gave birth to you."

"But the queen ant is a player."

Wang made a groaning sound, and he was packing up the memories in his brain.

"You know my weakness after I was born, how could the woman who was pregnant with me not know it."

Wang paused.

"Meng Zang Jianan, that's the name..."

Then he said everything.

"[Charmer] Meng Zang Jianan, a bad-hearted woman, is an excellent hypnotist. She created an illusion for Kam. Kam thought that the peeling power of the other world was his own ability. In fact, it was something Meng Zang Jianan gave him to create pressure on me."

"I don't understand." The person who interrupted Wang was Du Juan. This super-powerful woman was not afraid of anything.

"Very good, I am satisfied with your doubts."

Wang did not blame her, but praised her and gave an answer.

"If I can't even deal with a Kam, what qualifications do I have to be called a 'king'?"

It pointed out a truth.

"The gap between organisms is not as huge as we think, but barriers are the basic elements of shaping advanced organisms. Guess what is the purpose of Meng Zang Jianan doing this?"

Ryan said: "To protect you."

"Very good, the angle is strange, but it's right."

Wang praised.

"After all, the wild child is not a young master in swaddling clothes. There are pairs of eyes staring at me outside. That woman's idea is right and her actions are right. If the dilemma Kam gave me is not resolved, even if I survive by chance, the covetous "humans" can still make me fall into hell. There is really no need for me to exist."

Kamu was indeed deceived.

The connection between him and Meng Zang Jianan is not as close as he imagined. The horror of [Charmer] lies in creating a non-existent relationship for you.

She once gave Kam a prop that can contain the chimera ants.

That prop later became a skill to separate the connection between the inner world and reality.

But Kam didn't know it at all.

He didn't know anything.

Meng Zang Jianan hoped that the ant king would inherit Kam's name, because Kam would be the first life form to give the ant king a dilemma, and this name was commemorative.

But this king didn't care what he was called.

All the players were confused when they heard it.

If Meng Zang Jianan asked Kam to cause trouble for the king for any purpose, outsiders would only look at the surface phenomenon at most.

First, test the quality of the king.

Second, see the loyalty of the guards.

What else...

What is the root...

"Motherly love."

The king knew their doubts and gave the answer directly.

"Well, that is her love for my child."

Some people couldn't help but want to look up.

This thing... can it be called motherly love?

"Ryan, let me ask you, how many corridors are your players divided into?"

"Five."

"Which one is the most powerful?"

"The end."

"Why is it powerful?"

"Madman."

"What is a madman?"

The king's question was sharp.

It gave the answer itself.

"People who draw knife marks on their faces, people with madness in their eyes, people who slaughter thousands of innocent lives, it seems that in those memories, these people are called crazy... But that's not right, this is just a way of expression for your entertainment carriers, right?"

"Crazy should be for a purpose, the purpose is the root of madness, that woman just wants to give birth to a perfect 'king', she would rather let outsiders kill her 'king', and even more so let herself die. Thoughts determine madness, and behavior determines the bottom line."

When the king said these words, all the players understood that what they were facing was not the imagined ant king at all.

"Death Corridor" is not a guard.

Everything Ryan and his friends are facing now is just a whim of a woman in the "End Corridor".

Everything about the king is just a wish of the "End" players.

If everything goes well, this king will be supreme, but Shao Hong's appearance disrupted everything, and the unexpectedness of the "Endless Corridor" caused the plan to be premature.

"I wonder if there is something like fate holding me..."

The king is thinking.

It knows that no one can work with it, so it just thinks about it and forgets it.

"Tell me about the current situation outside."

The cat elf Charicos said: "My ability can isolate the external thermal weapons. Even if something with excessive power appears, Mingnu opens the space and creates another "inner world" and everything is safe. In addition, this city itself is a no-man's land, and no one should care about what happens here."

Ryan reminded: "It has been an hour since the occupation of the central area, and there is no action from the outside world. I suspect that the fundamental reason why the queen ant appeared here is that there is a "business" or "politics" behind it. Please restore your strength as soon as possible so that we can completely take this place away."

"So, who are the enemies and where are they?" The king asked.

Mingnu: "Can't find..."

"Really..."

Everyone can hear the king take a deep breath.

Then, a huge breath rose up like a tsunami.

That was a detection capability that was dozens of times greater than Mingnu's. The king's power was unfathomable.

"How many are there in space."

The king noticed the location of Li Nuo and Maljie.

"There are a few more protected by something, and I can't penetrate that thing either."

The king was powerless against the [Realm of Reason] in the fantasy world.

"What are you?" At this time, Ryan asked a question that made everyone gasp. He was still saying, "Are you the ant king or a 'player'?"

"Good question..." The king began to ponder: "According to the memory given by the queen ant, I can't know what a player is... Otherwise I will be sanctioned. So that's it... I'm going to die soon."

Everyone: "...!"

The king: "Don't be surprised, it's a normal phenomenon. I know things that I shouldn't know, which means that there are loopholes in my existence. There will definitely be a big hand of fate to adjust the direction. Fate will erase me because of my unreasonableness. My only breakthrough is to make myself rational. That's it... I understand, just use your way."

At this moment, the king put away all his breath.

"Make a game, just like the script you are facing. If I am the initiator of the script, my existence is reasonable."

"What, game?" Ryan asked.

The king did not rush to give an answer.

"Mingnu, can you create a different space, so that this city can be changed?"

Mingnu nodded.

"Infinite City."

"Very good."

The king thought about it, and activated his breath again to detect the power of "Endless Corridor".

"Ryan, what do you think is the winning rate of more than 100 people against the less than 10 people on the opposite side?"

Ryan: "50-50."

"40-60." Wang said: "You four."

As soon as the voice fell, all the players present felt that there was a kind of power bursting out of themselves.

"It's 50-50 now."

The king gave them power in a way that no one knew.

"Don't worry, I'm not that strong. If all of you rush at me, there's a high probability that you can kill me. But what I'm really worried about is you. Your strength will affect the fun of the game."

"I'm so weak now. If you can reduce the opponent's strength, I can survive. Otherwise, I will die."

"But you still have a fatal problem. As a guard, you know that I have a problem with my body and will not leave. So I'm issuing an order as your king. Please finish this game, go outside, and kill those guys."

Ryan now understands that the king knows everything. He knows that there are people outside who are eyeing him. As guards, they are in a dilemma, but the king gives the reasons and solutions for all the crises, so they can give it a try.

"In order to ensure fairness and protect you, Mingnu, after everyone leaves, we will create the 'Infinite City' you mentioned."

Mingnu: "Yes."

"Okay, everyone, now look up and look at me."

The king issued an order in a gentle but majestic tone.

Everyone looked up.

They saw the king's true body.

It has a handsome face with human features.

But on its face, there are four eyes.

The pupils are cat eyes.

Zhang has a cat's tail, and the end of the tail has faded, which is a steel needle.

The body has the splicing of insects, but it is not obvious.

What is more special is that it is surrounded by fine magic particles, the magic power of "marsh gas", and it can create explosions by raising its hands.

This is the king.

It is different from what everyone imagines.

"Let me think, what is the name of this game..."

The king curled his lips.

"I can't leave here because of my physical condition, so I am the home guard... You have to attack and meet the enemy..."

At this time, the king suddenly had clear eyes.

"This routine is very similar to the brave man breaking into the magic city. They are few in number and play the role of brave men. You are many in number and are my guards. We have occupied this place from the beginning and are the invading party. Are we the devil's army?"

The king shook his head.

"The title of devil is very strange. I am a chimera ant."

It saw that everyone was afraid of it, so it thought of the answer.

“Let’s just call him ‘the evil god.’ The evil god of ants.”

Du Juan said: "But...the evil god is doomed to fail with a high probability..."

Wang: "Didn't I say that my appearance is doomed to failure. I don't care about this. The title is not important. What is important is whether I can find the key to breaking the game during this period."

In the main hall, it became quiet.

When~

The singing girl waves the strings.

"Then just like Lord Evil God said, please protect me, I will start building a city from now on."

The Infinite City created by Naruko has a map, and that thing will be imprinted in the minds of players of the same camp as her.

Ryan stood up first.

Everyone got up one by one, without saying a word. Only two players were left standing outside the king's house. Everyone left. They used their own experience to find the direction they should go.

In the spacious hall.

The ant king sat back on his throne, and used his tail to connect the energy tube to the wound on his body.

"grown ups."

Naruto called from the side.

"Well, please speak."

"Please survive."

The king was stunned for a moment, then he raised his head and looked upward, the depths of his pupils seemed to want to grasp the invisible hand of fate.

"Hmph...ok."

Narume plucked the strings again.

When——!

The city center is the axis, and within a radius of ten kilometers, the city is contiguously transformed.

…

[Changes to the Border Prison Script]

[Clean up the root of the virus, Wang]

[Remaining time of task: 1 day]

[Mission details: Overturn "Infinite City"]

…

The outskirts of the city.

It's dark.

In the air, Emil's sales car fell from above, and the moment it hit the ground, the cushion popped out.

The car rolled over several times and landed smoothly.

The wind picked up.

In the circle formed by [Realm of Reason], the players of the "Endless Corridor" are waiting here.

Nanami turned around, her long brown hair covering half of her face in the wind, and the light curtain of Infinite City behind her gave the outline of her face a layer of light.

She looked at the two people getting out of the car, and then smiled slightly with dimples.

"Everyone is here."

As soon as he finished speaking, a spherical cabin fell from the sky.

It hit Li Nuo and Marjie impartially.

In an instant, smoke and dust were everywhere.

The leader and the Warrior of Light were knocked backwards and flew backwards. The two of them hit a big rock, as if they were about to die.

Everyone, including Nanami, looked at each other with big eyes.

The door of the orb cabin opened.

Die, Victor, and the fighting succubus walked out of the cabin.

Die looked around, nodded, and smiled.

"Well, everyone is here!"
