Chapter 38
Xing was also upright, and this time he directly gave up the chance of punishment to March 7.
Looking at the two people who shared the same hatred, Pei Guang swallowed: "Xing! That's not the case. We have already tricked Qi'er together. Why should we give her this opportunity?"
Xing: "What you said is very good, then let me do it! The skull is just for smashing!"
At this moment, Pei Guang's expression changed and he looked at March Qi aside: "Come on! Qi'er, just go ahead and play~"
A bright smile appeared on March 7th's face: "Haha, you are still plotting against me? Do you know how powerful I am this time?"
Pei Guang accepted his defeat and was waiting for the punishment on March 7. A little follower next to Hook asked in a low voice: "What are the brothers and sisters doing? It's obviously a punishment, but they are still very happy?"
Hook looked at the expressions of the three people, thought seriously, and then clapped his hands: "Hook understands! This is what adults often say, showing affection."
"Oh! Show your affection!"
"That's it, show your affection."
Star: "Show affection~"
Originally, March 7th's bullet was going to fall hard, but because of Hook and the others, it was immediately defeated. As a result, the bullet did not use any force at all, and the moment her hand touched Pei Guang's body, Pei Guang jumped back to avoid it.
"Haha! Your punishment is over!"
March 7: "Wait a minute, I haven't... exerted any force... and what's more! What nonsense are you guys talking about? See how I deal with you, sister."
Hook and his gang ran away, shouting as they ran: "Show affection~Show affection~"
"puff!"
Looking at their backs, March Qi stopped and smiled. The child's innocent words naturally did not make March Qi shy. On the contrary, she was curious about who taught these children and how they seemed to know everything.
Children's words are unbridled, and what Hook said was not excessive, so March 7th would naturally not be angry.
At this moment, Xi'er came over and said, "Hey, Xing is awake. Looking at your state, did you have fun playing with them?"
March 7 nodded: "Yes! These little guys are really interesting. They are also super good at hide-and-seek, and one of them can even disguise himself as an adult."
Pei Guang smiled and added: "How did you say that? Although the body is mature, the mind is like a child. What Kudo Shinichi!"
Xing asked curiously: "Kudo Shinichi? Who is that?"
Pei Guang recalled: "An anime character turned into a famous detective for children due to an accident. I didn't expect to encounter such a joke here."
Xing: "I always feel like you know a lot."
Pei Guang: "Because I have a complicated composition~"
While the three of them were having fun, Xi'er came over with an embarrassed expression on her face: "I'm sorry to interrupt your fun. Actually, I have a task here that I want to entrust you with. Don't worry, um... it's a task. I'm ready for the reward, but I just don't know if it's enough..."
Pei Guang was overjoyed. He didn't expect that his new teammate would have a mission? That must be done.
"Oh? Then I have to do this task."
March 7 then said: "Come? What mission? I can make you come here to ask so worriedly."
After Xi'er recalled it for a moment, she spoke.
"This is what happened..."
After Xing fell into coma, Pei Guang and March 7 waited for Xing to wake up near the clinic, while Xi'er and Bronya continued to work during this time.
Bronya went to have a private conversation with Oleg, and after deciding what to do next, she and Xier walked around.
It's okay not to go shopping. This visit also brought out some of Bronya's memories.
According to Bronya's memories, she seemed to have lived in Rivet Town when she was a child, and she lived in the same orphanage in Rivet Town. It's just that Bronya was taken away much earlier, so the two people have no memory of meeting.
Thinking of the orphanage, both Bronya and Xi'er felt nostalgic. They both wanted to go there and see if they could find anything worth remembering from the past.
But there were too many powerful world-splitting creatures in Rivet Town, and even if the two went there, they were not sure they could bring anything back. Because of this, Xi'er thought of Pei Guang and wanted to ask Pei Guang for help.
After listening to Xi'er's description, March Qi looked at Xi'er curiously: "Eh? When did you and Bronya have such a good relationship?"
"Okay? We just have the same background and the same purpose. At the same time, I think of the place where I once lived... The evacuation was too sudden, and I didn't have time to bring back many things. And those useless things... I won't go out to search... "
Speaking of this, Xi'er's mood was a little low. Even she has many good memories in the orphanage.
You may not believe it, but besides fighting and killing, Xier is also very good at making handicrafts and sewing dolls. There were many handicrafts from her childhood in that orphanage, but...
After listening to the description, Pei Guang took out the wooden sword directly: "We have accepted your mission! But what is the mission reward?"
Xi'er became a little nervous: "Well... I will give each of you a handicraft made by me..."
Pei Guang: "Oh? It's a favorability mission? It must be done even more. Maybe we have done too many favorability missions, and we can directly recruit Xi'er in the future."
Xi'er was surprised and said: "Join the gang? Do you want to go out with you? Can I?"
Pei Guang gave a thumbs up: "Of course..."
Xing nodded: "Yes! Xier can do it."
March 7 also agreed: "If Xi'er is here, it might be very, very interesting. Huh? I will contact Sister Ji Zi and Uncle Yang later. I believe they will also let Xi'er get on the bus."
Pei Guang said calmly: "It's not a big problem. I can't get in the car. I still have a Star Destroyer~ In fact, I have a bigger idea here, that is, I don't know such a free world. Because I doubt that we can complete this The mission may open the home or cultivation system by then..."
March 7 asked curiously: "Is it fun?"
Pei Guang shook his head: "It's not fun. According to this free situation, it's probably a business simulation game. Business simulation games are very tiring to play. If you don't say anything else, just watch Beloberg. It's in line with my understanding of business simulations." Know."
March 7: "Why do you say that?"
Pei Guang: "Because there are unscrupulous people in the simulation business, there are also unscrupulous people in Belloberg, but there is only one big unruly person here."
Xingze asked out of curiosity: "Dirty people? What do you mean?"
March 7th also recalled: "I remember you said this term when we were chatting. Although I understand this term very well... but I feel like you have other meanings, right?"
Pei Guang explained: "Didn't I tell you that I once played a real-time strategy game. It was a world covered by a cold wave and was about to turn to minus 150 degrees."
"There is also a heating stove similar to the big stove here. I thought I was working hard at the beginning, sending people to search for supplies and rescue survivors. But in the end, they turned against me because they couldn't have an eight-hour work system and couldn't have weekends?"
As soon as this sentence came out, Xier was shocked. Eight-hour work day? Weekend? It’s the end of the world, do you still think about this?
Pei Guang continued to add: "As the weather gets colder and colder, I have issued a few extreme laws in order to survive. Look! It's not too much for a child to work, right?"
Xi'er shook her head: "It's not too much. I've been helping out since I was very young."
Feeling Xi'er's understanding, Pei Guang continued to ask with some emotion: "Isn't a twenty-four-hour work system too much?"
Xi'er continued to shake her head: "It's not too much. Some of us here work for several days in order to survive. I once had a record of not sleeping for seven days."
Pei Guang seemed to feel a confidant: "Yes! I don't do anything too much. After all, it is to survive. As long as we get through the difficulties, there will be an eight-hour work system and weekend breaks. What's the result? This gang Diaomin, he told me that he wanted to go to prostitutes at minus 110 degrees, but one person died and one was injured in a fight at minus 120 degrees. The most outrageous thing is that when the rescue team was rescuing people, they told me that they had to take breaks during the eight-hour workday? "
"When there is no food, I complain, protest, and don't think of ways to get food. How can I, a manager, give birth to food? When there is food, I complain that the food is not delicious. Please, I work so hard to build, and people can eat. Are you telling me that the food is not good enough? When I use mass-produced machinery to complete more dangerous tasks, I complain that there is nothing to do and the working environment is poor.”
"The most outrageous thing is that after finally stabilizing, there are still people who want to become independent and want to leave. What's even more frightening is that in this environment, there are still unscrupulous people who steal 6,000 units of coal from me. Gan!"
It's okay not to think about it, but I feel angry when I think about Pei Guang. Compared with the unscrupulous people I met in the game, the people of Belloberg are simply good people! As a result, there are too many good people and the leaders become unruly people. In a way, it is really a kind of conservation.
Although Pei Guang had complained before, Xing and March Qi were shocked after hearing Pei Guang complain in person.
March 7: "Ah...what happened next?"
Pei Guang: "Well... Later, after surviving the cold wave and the temperature gradually warmed up, I gave up. This kind of top-notch game, I won't want to play it a second time after I clear it once."
After listening to Pei Guang's description, Xi'er felt a little emotional: "Indeed, according to your description, these people are really unruly people. On the contrary, in our lower-class area, although there are some homeless people who are restless, that is because of the division of borders. The expansion has made their family completely desperate. If the great guardian here can think about everyone's survival like you, they won't be desperate, right?"
Xi'er looked in the direction of Rivet Town: "After all, everyone wants to live, but do we really have hope?"
Pei Guang patted Xi'er on the shoulder and smiled: "Of course! I won't say it anymore. In the worst case scenario, I will use a Star Destroyer to take you all away~ Well... Diao Min will stay."
Xi'er also smiled: "Your words are enough. If there is a chance, I will let you be the great guardian."
Before Pei Guang could say anything, March 7th smiled and said, "He? Become the Great Guardian? How is that possible? Pfft! When this guy becomes the Great Guardian, he can completely tear down your Beloberg."
Neither Xing nor March 7 took Xi'er's joke seriously.
Chapter 77 Bronya has a deeper understanding of the will to protect
Not only did Xing and March Qi not take Xi'er's joke seriously, but Pei Guang himself didn't take it seriously either.
My main plot is to travel all over the world as a pioneer, how can I stay in Novice Village and run Novice Village? Besides, this game is so free. How can they force me to be a great guardian if I don’t want to be?
Not to mention whether it would be forced, just thinking about being a leader in such a real world made Pei Guang feel like his head was buzzing.
He still has some idea of his political level. It is okay to modify the basic resource quantity for a national policy and play simulated management. Real game? Don't don't!
Besides, even if you think about the worst and you really want to play business simulation, you have to open a new game. You have to have sufficient resources and the public support to play, right? If you take over this kind of thing that has been played by others for seven hundred years and is about to collapse, then you will really become a keyboard warrior.
If you have a better planet to play on, you can give it as a gift to March 7th. A Star Destroyer, a planet to build from scratch as a home, perfect!
But a broken planet? don't want.
Pei Guang: "Okay~ What a great guardian, let's go get the sword together in a few days. But before that, let me complete your favor mission first! It's agreed! I'll help you bring back your precious things. , the reward cannot be less.”
Xi'er said confidently: "It will definitely be no less, and... I'm sorry to bother you."
March 7th replied with a smile: "What's the trouble~ We happen to be searching for some resources~ Hehe, this kind of thing is really interesting, but the storage space is too little."
Pei Guang: "It's okay, wait until there is enough space, and search enough. Unfortunately, Novice Village is too poor, otherwise I will lead you to search hard. I hope the next map will be richer~"
Xingze took out his bat and said, "I can't wait any longer. Let's go."
Pei Guang: "Let's go!"
Xi'er: "I'm with you. I can't loot, but I can fight and kill."
Pei Guang: "Let's go! Call Bronya and let's go!"
Although Bronya didn't join the group, she was still an important NPC in Pei Guang's opinion. For a task like this that can greatly increase his favor, it would be a bit of a loss if he didn't call the other party.
Although Pei Guang is usually crazy, Pei Guang is not stupid either. He will never lose Bronya's favor. After all, if this situation continues, Bronya will definitely become the head of the novice village.
The novice village is very mysterious. In many games, you can always get some props or equipment from the village chief in the novice village that can be used in the later stage. It is not a loss to gain goodwill.
Rivet Town Orphanage is located at a relatively high place deep in Rivet Town, where you can overlook the entire Rivet Town. And this location is also very interesting. You can go to the Mechanical Settlement to the east and Panyan Town to the south. Although it is in the deepest part of the town, there are two roads that can quickly reach these two places.
However, these two main roads were blocked with obstacles after the people were evacuated to prevent the creatures from the world from entering. Therefore, if you want to reach the orphanage, you still need to take a slight detour.
The houses around the entrance of Rivet Town have been almost looted. Because the world-splitting creations in the rooms have also been eliminated, the streets seem much quieter.
Looking at the quiet street, Xi'er joked in a relaxed tone: "Thanks to your help, all the world-splitting creatures nearby are dead. Otherwise, we have to act cautiously from here on."
Bronya, who was following the team, nodded and said: "Yes, if the Iron Guards were as efficient as you in searching, some of the people who were forced to evacuate wouldn't be so desperate, right?"
As the upper world rift expanded indoors, many people were forced to evacuate in emergencies. Originally, she just saw them sad, but she couldn't fully understand it. After all, surviving was the most important thing.
But when she recalled that she had lived in an orphanage as a child, and that Pei Guang and the others might find the toys and handicrafts she once made, she could already fully understand the feelings of the people and the homeless.
Just the thought of finding her past memories made her heart surge. If she could find a souvenir, how should she describe her passionate heart in words?
Thinking of this, Bronya even wanted to wait until the matter was over and ask Pei Guang and his team to help those who left home search for supplies. A photo, a memory, the weight of this kind of thing can only be understood through personal contact.
Because of this, when Bronya recalled her experience in the orphanage, she discussed with Xi'er asking Pei Guang and the others for help. This help not only satisfied her desire, but also gave her a deeper understanding of her ambition to protect.
Xi'er agreed with Bronya's idea: "You are right. Because of this, although I am not angry with those individual wanderers, I can't feel too much anger. They just live to live..."
Pei Guang added from the side: "Actually, from a certain perspective, these people are quite powerful. Although they have lost a lot of humanity, they have not lost their animality. If they lose their humanity, they will lose a lot, and if they lose their animality, they will lose everything. Animals still know how to survive. No matter what the means, some people are... Tricky people!"
Bronya nodded and said: "If it were before... I might only think that life is more important. But now I understand that the so-called protection is not only to protect people's lives, but also to protect everything they cherish! Protection belongs to this world , everything that belongs to human civilization.”
Bronya's will to protect is stronger, and she understands better what she is protecting.
What she protects is not just human life, but also human will, protecting everything on this planet that has not been eroded.
At the same time, at this moment, she also determined what a hateful existence the Star Core was, pretending to be the Great Guardian and trying to destroy the world. First destroy the things that people cherish, let the living people fall into negative emotions, and then destroy Belloberg and destroy the world.
She, Bronya, had made a decision at this moment. Even if she fought until the last moment, she would protect Beloberg and everything that everyone in Beloberg valued, instead of simply protecting lives and maintaining survival.
However, just when she was once again realizing something, she found that Pei Guang and Xing were hitting the surroundings with baseball bats.
"Hey? What are they doing?"
Xi'er also saw their strange behavior, but Xi'er learned to be smart. Facing Pei Guang's abnormality, she has learned to completely give up her brain. Anyway, the goal now is to ask these people to go to the orphanage to search for some things and find some memories.
March 7 took out a bow and arrow: "No~ There are enemies ahead. They are transforming the terrain."
"Transforming the terrain?"
Bronya pondered for a while, and then understood what Pei Guang was doing: "Changing the terrain makes the battle easier. But facing these world-breaking creatures, this kind of terrain transformation... is it useful?"
Bronya noticed that Pei Guang and Xing directly chiseled through a wall, but it seemed that chiseling like this would only make the world-breaking creatures move more conveniently, and it would not help much in the battle, right?
Xi'er said indifferently: "Who cares, I just need to swing the sickle and chop it."
Now Xi'er doesn't want to think about the battle at all, thinking about it. With Pei Guang around, I'll just let him be my external brain and do whatever he tells me to do.
