Chapter 255: two hundred and fifty two

   Chapter 255 Chapter 252 "The Last Lesson"

  【In this twisted environment, people cannot trust anyone. 】

  【They will become obedient and obedient subconsciously, because they are not encouraged to be creative from the beginning. 】

  【If they stop in the middle of the march, they are considered lazy. 】

  【The teachers of Baisha used their experience to confiscate their will, and those who were cultivated gradually became the extension of their limbs. 】

  【The sheep fell to the ground in the rain, and people were pushed forward. 】

  【—They became projections in someone's eyes, shadowy figures who couldn't resist, they fell into the trap called "excellent" and could never turn back. 】

  【They "swear to the death". 】

   [They "reward diligence". 】

  【And behind this effort, the tower has collapsed. 】

  【—In this traveling wave, the light never converged into another light. 】

  …

   The sky was bright, and in the office at the top of the high-rise building, the man in the suit sighed at the black-haired girl.

   "...Sorry, Miss Lin Jiang, about our contract plan..."

   "Are you going to cancel the contract?" Lin Jiang turned his head.

  Compared with the dungeon, she looks a lot haggard at this time, with dark circles under her eyes, and her figure is also thin, and the whole person looks like an ordinary girl with low spirits.

   "Yes." The man nodded: "I judge that Miss Lin Jiang's current state is no longer suitable for renewing her contract with Ojigeb, and our equipment supply to Miss Lin Jiang will also be terminated..."

  Lin Jiang smiled and tapped the windowsill with his fingers.

   It was clear that she had no power at all, and indeed she had no power, but the man who spoke felt a very obvious sense of threat, pressing down on him like a wave.

   "Miss Lin Jiang, we..."

   "Boom!"

   Before he could finish his words, the door behind him was suddenly pushed open, and a man with white hair strode in.

   "Mr. Michael, because of Miss Lin Jiang's momentary mistake, you want to terminate the one-month contract we negotiated?" The white-haired man who entered the door asked the man in the suit with a serious tone.

   "Mutual benefit is the purpose of our contract." Michael smiled awkwardly:

   "But now Miss Lin Jiang has failed once, even if she doesn't end up again like Miss Iris, the value she can bring to us is far less than before.

   The weight is out of balance, the transaction fails, the contract should be terminated, Mr. Qin. "

   Qin Er frowned: "Ms. Lin Jiang's strength is there, even if she fails once, she will also have a chance to make a comeback in the subsequent dungeons. Terminating the contract at this time is just shortsighted."

  Mitchell glanced at Lin Jiang who was leaning against the windowsill.

   Her dark eyes were staring at him faintly at this time, and An Ran's expression revealed a hint of hidden madness.

   He instantly retracted his gaze and shook his head: "I admit that we are suspected of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, but the follow-up result of Miss Lin Jiang's strength change is also written on our contract, and I am only a representative."

   "Can't negotiate?"

   "I will sincerely apologize to you."

   "Forget it, Qin Er." Lin Jiang said: "Release, just release, now I really can't take on your [important responsibility]."

   She deliberately emphasized the [important task], and her words contained irony.

  Mitchell didn't say much, just bowed, then turned and left.

  The steady footsteps left quickly, and the door was gently closed.

   The cool wind from outside the window blew in gently, raising the girl's long jet-black hair.

   She sat by the window, tilted her head, did not speak, her smile was mixed with some unspeakable meaning.

   Qin Er sighed.

   "Humans are always short-sighted," he said.

"...I can understand the partner's distrust." Lin Jiang smiled: "After all, it is indeed me who failed, everything was emptied, and everything was restarted. The cost of failure is too great, it is equivalent to helping a waste person from scratch, they dare not gamble. "

   She turned her head to the side, through the glass, looked at the people walking under the window, at the statue of the boss Rabbit in the central plaza, the fountain surging, and saw the children playing and sparring beside.

  The world looks so wonderful, everything seems like nothing has happened.

   As if human beings were never involved in this "catastrophe".

  …If you ignore the live LCD screens that are ubiquitous in the streets and alleys.

  Lin Jiang watched this scene quietly, and drew up some bangs that blocked his view.

  Mitchell was the seventh person to come to her to rescind the contract.

   After she returned from the game dungeon and was emptied of all her strength, these people rushed up one by one like flies, and they all wanted to terminate the contract with her.

   Originally agreed to form a team in the seventh world, and the organization responsible for providing her with equipment and props also retreated. Even if he chooses not to terminate the contract, the lion has to open his mouth, trying to take advantage of her embarrassed time.

   There are many icing on the cake, and few people who give away charcoal in the snow. This is a normal thing in the world.

   She can't blame these people for being short-sighted, because the time period of game dungeons is inherently short, and the world game changes rapidly, so it is natural for people to focus on the present. If she fails once, she has fewer opportunities to rise up. It needs to be accumulated world by world, and it is normal for these organizations to seek other masters.

"Changying has always sent people to keep an eye on the progress bar of humans." Qin Er said, "Although its value changes all the time, the moment you die, the value of the progress bar suddenly drops. 1.27%.”

   "1.27%." Consternation flashed in Lin Jiang's eyes, she chewed the number carefully: "...It's amazing."

"Yes, it's quite amazing." Qin Er said: "According to our judgment, your combat power should be tenth in the ranking list at that time, the tenth player was cleared of combat power points, and the overall progress bar dropped by nearly 1.27%. …It can be judged that the weight of the top players is very large, and at least the top ten players will not be lower than 1.27%."

   "So now, those people should pay more attention to the top players."

"Yes." Qin Er said: "And, not only those people, it should be said, everyone - after the progress bar dropped by 1.27%, almost everyone noticed this situation. Everyone realized that the top players accounted for The weight seems to be far beyond what they expected."

   "Well." Lin Jiang nodded: "I will return to my former position."

   She said this, understatement, as if she had no doubt that she would fail.

   has passed six worlds, and the accumulation of the top players is getting thicker and thicker, but she has no intention of giving up when she starts all over again.

   Her eyes were always clear, and her slender body seemed to contain a huge explosive force.

   Just sitting by the windowsill, Qin Er could feel the weight in her simple words.

   "...And, Lin Jiang, I personally hope that you won't hate the former players from now on because of this failure."

   After being quiet for a while, Qin Er suddenly said.

   "Hate?" Lin Jiang put her hand on the edge of the window, her eyes were a little distant: "Why hate?"

   "As the world looked before..."

"It seems that I hate the former players, especially Su Ming'an?" Lin Jiang smiled: "It may have been a little bit before, but not now. After all, this time it was my own mistake, it was the guy who played the mechanical flying ball in the air. I, can't help it - but in fact, I don't hate Su Ming'an, he is very good."

   "You trust him?"

"No, I trust the interests with him." Lin Jiang said: "Once I return to the position of the top player, I will be extremely safe. This is a person who has a big picture, and he will not deliberately go out for personal gain. Who to kill, when I become a top player and have enough weight, he will not deliberately target me, otherwise, I will die the moment I confront him."

  "..." Qin Er stood there and was silent for a moment: "All the top players have traces of their origins and backgrounds, and there are some people standing behind them. But there is only one exception."

   "Ordinary student."

"Yes... Lin Jiang, you know, even you have the support of us, but that person... seems to be really just an ordinary student, people have investigated his background, it is very ordinary, and there is nothing extraordinary involved. trace."

"I really don't know where his sense of stability that he is in control of everything comes from." Lin Jiang said: "This time I met him up close in the sixth world, and this feeling became more and more obvious. I found that he was facing I was completely unguarded, and I couldn't imagine why he was so confident. Ordinary students, to this extent, there must be someone behind him. "

   "What do you think it will be?"

   "For the public, the organizers."

   "What's your opinion?"

   "I don't think so." Lin Jiang said: "If he was sent by the organizer, he wouldn't be able to do this. The whole world thinks so, and it's too obvious, but I don't think so."

   "Some people say that he will show his legs in the sixth world. His mood is more unstable than usual. Obviously, he is also affected by the environment of the sixth world."

   "I don't think he's the one who would go crazy because of this. His calmness has always exceeded my expectations."

   "Probably, maybe?" Qin Er said, the watch on his wrist suddenly beeped.

   "Another one," he said.

   "Can you cancel the contract?"

"Yes."

"Come on." Lin Jiang withdrew his hand: "If you want to start again...you can only work harder in the next world. I am destined to not be able to keep up with the pace of the top players who have been undefeated, but some of them will fail sooner or later. This It's going to be a long time, and I'm destined to be part of it."

   "When the time comes, I will make these short-sighted people who rescind their contracts regret it."

  Lin Jiang smiled, fluctuating emotions flowing in his eyes.

  …

   Outside the door, Xia Luoyang, who was holding a gun, had a cigarette in his mouth.

   "...you're back," he said.

   "I just want to save Dongxue." Su Mingan said.

   "Well, yes, you're right." Xia Luoyang said: "But you are already shining brightly now, so why go back to the past?"

   "I'm just saving myself." Su Mingan said tentatively.

  Xia Luoyang was smoking a cigarette.

   His finger was on the trigger.

"I'll teach you the last lesson, Yang Xia." Xia Luoyang said, "Although I may not be qualified to call myself a teacher, I have awakened a little bit of self-awareness. I want to help you, teach you this... the last lesson ."

   "You want to lecture me?" Su Mingan showed an interested smile.

"I once dreamed of curing my children with electrotherapy, and I still think that is right." Xia Luoyang said, "I won't tell you more, because you have grown and matured, and your will has not As my words change - I just want to tell you, Yang Xia, you will regret saving Dong Xue, or maybe not."

   "Your riddles make it difficult for me to understand." Su Ming'an said, "If you want to educate a person, make it clear."

   "I mean..." Xia Luoyang said, and suddenly fired without warning.

"Ding!"

  The bullet fell to the ground, and Su Mingan appeared behind him, pressing his finger to his temple.

"How do you know that you were supposed to be like this? Why do you think you should save Dongxue?" Xia Luoyang didn't turn his head, and he didn't even take back his gun: "I'm a contradictory person, I'm often sober, and I'm often caught Wake up, I just hope that one day I can get out of this worldly vicious circle. I just want you to understand that some things are not suitable to be changed."

   "Before the dungeon reset, you said I would never regret it. Now, you told me I would regret it." Su Ming'an said, "You are indeed contradicting."

   He deliberately said the information about the dungeon reset, and wanted to see if Xia Luoyang would react to it.

   Sure enough, Xia Luoyang said:

   "...reset again?" He said: "Then you will succeed this time?"

   he said, the muzzle turned.

  Su Ming'an no longer hesitated, and immediately issued extinction.

  【HP-2000! (Fatal wound!)]

  …

  Su Ming'an discovered early in the morning that Xia Luoyang's combat effectiveness is not strong. In the last week, Xia Luoyang only fired a few shots, like an ordinary person who simply holds a gun. Xia Luoyang's speed, stamina, and strength are not strong enough to be easily killed.

   Before the dungeon was reset, Su Mingan had also easily subdued the opponent, and the opponent did not resist at all.

   On the contrary, Xia Luoyang's bullets are terrifying and can almost kill Ming with one shot.

   Therefore, when he realized that Xia Luoyang was about to shoot, he did not dare to spare the opponent's life.

   A Riddler dialogue, he seems to understand something.

  【*You killed Xia Luoyang (which belongs to Baisha Paradise), Exp+8000! 】

  【…】

   A series of information jumped out, and the things obtained were the same as the previous week.

  Xia Luoyang fell down, blood spilling over the floor.

  …

  【Perfect Clearance Line·Escape Line: 65%】

  …

  Su Ming'an did not dare to stay here too much.

  The only one who could recognize him was dead. He wore a white coat and quickly toured the three floors and found a safe.

  The safe has a three-digit combination lock, and he enters the combination, A44. The lockbox opens automatically.

   Inside the box, he found a note and a circle of car keys, as well as a correct map of White Sands Paradise.

  【Obtaining clues Lu Xia Luoyang's warning】
