Chapter 178 The World After Death

Gus staggered back home.

It was too tired. He had to work 10 hours a day, which was simply exploitation.

The key point was that this was still the federal regulation. Because of the Quark Robot, the physical fitness of each citizen of the Federation was very terrible. Not to mention 10 hours of work, even 50 hours of continuous work was not a problem.

But the most important thing was that almost 99% of the physical labor in the Federation was now done by robots, and all citizens worked with their own brains.

The body was not tired, but the heart was tired.

Gus had been thinking for a long time, what was the meaning of his life?

Although the Federation was so big and the starry sky was so magnificent, he might be trapped in this star city like his parents for the rest of his life.

In fact, the star city was already big enough, with billions of citizens living here.

It had not even walked out of a district in the star city. No, it could even be said that it had lived in a street in a district of the star city for more than 30 years.

It was often confused. Should it continue like this?

It still has hundreds of years of life left. Will it continue like this?

It is very unwilling.

But it cannot change. Those things are unknown to it. It is afraid. It does not know what it will gain or lose after the change.

It turns on the virtual TV to make the quiet room more lively.

It is a news channel. Entertainment videos are generally integrated into some video platforms, not this kind of regular TV station.

"Today, a serial killing occurred on Street 29, Wuyang District, T12 Star City, Loris Star System. Serial killers usually disguise themselves as robots delivering express delivery to commit crimes. Please pay attention to the residents living nearby."

"Over the years, the increasing mental pressure of the Federation has led many individuals to extremes..."

It was playing on TV, but Gus did not listen. He started to prepare his dinner.

In fact, there are already many machines on the market that can automatically make delicious food. You can even buy some human-like robots. Their bodies are more flexible and compact, and they can do many things.

But Gus does not like that. In his opinion, those foods are soulless.

Only food made by living things has a unique taste.

It began to make its favorite Rodinbury, a relatively sweet liquid food that is very popular in the Federation. However, due to individual differences between different races, some races may taste the same food as sour, bitter, or salty, so the popularity here actually varies from race to race.

"dilili~"

The personalized doorbell suddenly rang.

Gus was a little confused: "Who comes at this time?"

It walked over and asked through the door: "Who?"

A mechanical voice came from outside: "Gus, your mother sent you a courier, please check it."

Gus did not doubt it and opened the door.

Outside was a Kate tribe. Most of the robots in the Federation looked like humans, but this kind of Kate tribe robot was not common.

It passed over a certification document, which was equivalent to a signature, proving that it signed for the package.

It reached out to take the package from the other party, but at this moment, the tentacles of the Kate tribe on the opposite side directly penetrated its body through the package. As a cold-blooded creature of the Lelela tribe, it felt for the first time that its body could be so hot.

A terrifying heat spread in the body, its body was expanding, and then in less than 2 seconds, it exploded.

The body was torn into countless pieces and scattered around. Because of the Quark Robot, Guts could still think through his nervous system that had not exploded.

"Am I dead?"

"Did he die just like that?"

The Federation's technology should have allowed it to survive, but it knew that such a killer would not make such a low-level mistake. It only needed some electronic signals that interfered with the Quark Robot to make these Quark Robots unable to maintain the activity of its brain cells.

Sure enough, its thinking ability was declining.

It was really going to die.

The darkness completely enveloped it, and Guts' ordinary life ended at a young age before he was 40 years old.

...

"Hey, it's time to wake up."

Feeling that his body was kicked, Guts slowly woke up.

It looked around with some confusion.

"Am I not dead?"

"Is there really a hell after death?"

A Light Wing tribe member next to him said: "I don't know if there is a hell, but we are definitely not in hell now."

"???"

Guts didn't know what it meant.

On the other side, a human female said: "Indeed, this place is too real. It is either a virtual world or a strange space."

"We can even feel pain, which is incredible."

The Royin tribe who kicked Gus just now said: "I am more inclined to believe that it is a virtual world. After all, we can actually see our own attributes, which is no different from a virtual game."

"But it's a bit strange. You should be the same as me. You should be dead, so why are you here?"

"If the Federation allows citizens to regain their identities in the virtual world after death, then why have we never heard of this?"

There were a total of 12 individuals here, and from their conversations, Gus pieced together a few things.

At this time, it also noticed a small dot in its field of vision. After clicking on the small dot as usual to control the virtual screen, a panel quickly jumped out.

Above is some information about it.

[Name]: Gus Wolveride

[Race]: Lelera tribe

[Level]: 1 (try to survive, you weak ant)

[Strength]: 1 (After all, you come from a race where body size is really not dominant, so feel free to feel inferior to your race)

[Agility]: 3 (You should be lucky. Your small body makes you faster than ordinary life forms, plus your decorative wings can help you run faster when facing danger)

[Physique]: 0.5 (There is no doubt that a dog can bite you to death)

[Spirit]: 3 (Thank you for the era you live in, it is exercising your nerve aggregates that are only the size of walnuts all the time)

[Luck]: 7 (This means you have a 7% bonus in doing things, feel lucky for this)

[Talent]: Workaholic (when you do something seriously, you will get 50 points of luck bonus)

[Skills]: None (What are you expecting? What skills can you, a social beast, have?)

[Props]: None (You are unarmed and if you want to survive, try to get everything you can)

[Disposable basic points]: 0 (Each upgrade or other props can allow you to obtain basic points, which can increase your basic five dimensions)

[Ability Coin]: 0 (Every time you complete a task, you will receive ability coins, which will be your currency in the future. You can use it to exchange for anything)

It's really exactly like the game.

And it's still a relatively poor game.

At this moment, a voice appeared in the minds of all individuals in the space.

"This is a scarlet ruin, a place where nightmares are rampant. No life dares to go to sleep in the dark night. It will inevitably be dragged into death by the nightmare. Angel has not slept for a long time. It needs to protect its village, but It can't stand it any longer, and it needs a partner to help it withstand a night of nightmares and protect the villagers' good sleep..."

Following the sound, the scenery around them changed. When they came back to their senses, they were already standing on a piece of scarlet land.

And a panel appeared in front of them with the task written on it.

[Main mission]: Help Angel protect the village for 12 hours, and do not allow any villager to be killed by the nightmare. After the mission is completed, you will receive 100 ability coins as a reward. Mission failure: collective obliteration!

[Side Mission]: Kill nightmares, and get 50 ability coins as a reward for each nightmare you kill. There is no upper limit. There is no penalty for mission failure.

[Side Mission]: Explore the source of the nightmare and solve it. You may gain something unexpected. There is no penalty for mission failure.

Gus came to his senses.

This place is very familiar to him. It looks too much like a movie. That movie is called "Nightmare" and the protagonist's name is Angel.

Could it be that this is the world in the movie?

Incredible.

It looked around. Other individuals were extremely confused. After all, the Federation was too big and had too many entertainment things. Not all citizens would watch the same movie.

"This is a movie world. I know some information. You can follow me." Gus said.

Unexpectedly, the others immediately started asking him questions as if they had found a backbone.

It feels so good to be watched.

Gus was immersed in it.

Perhaps this is an opportunity for it to get out of the boring world it originally was.
