   Chapter 671 Chapter 668 · [My hometown is thinking a thousand miles tonight. 】

  【Lord God World·Dragon Country Server】

  January 31, New Year's Eve, at 6 o'clock in the evening, it snowed heavily.

   As night falls, every house is decorated with lanterns and firecrackers. Hanging red lanterns can be seen everywhere in the streets. People chat about "New Year" related topics.

  The branches covered with a layer of hoarfrost are full of lanterns, and casual players sell paper-cuts, blessing characters, bacon, fireworks and other festive items.

   "Come." Along the street, a young mother fed her child a mouthful of Oden.

  Colored light and shadow sprinkled on their small bodies, surrounded by people walking like a river.

   "The ferrule! The ferrule!"

   "Air gun! Come try air gun, adventurers stop!"

   "Go for goldfish, catch for goldfish—"

  The cries of people are endless. With sharp eyes, the child saw the live screen at a glance: "Mom, that's the Spring Festival Gala! I can watch the Spring Festival Gala again, can I keep my year old today?"

   "Well, today is the Spring Festival Gala. After today, we will arrive in 2022." The young mother smiled reluctantly: "Mom hopes that I will be able to celebrate the New Year with you next year."

   "Of course, I can't run." The child said: "Mom, let's pull the hook!"

   "Okay, pull the hook." The mother and her child pulled their pinky fingers.

"But Mom, why do we spend the New Year on the street this year and don't have the reunion dinner?" the child asked, "Where has Dad gone? Grandpa and grandma haven't seen each other for a long time. Why is our family suddenly rich these past few months? Can you eat anything you want? Why does the live game look so good, can I play it too?"

   Mother didn't speak, just touched his head.

   There were tears in her eyes.

"Your father earns points for mankind, and is sleeping in the hospital now." Mother said, "he will wake up after a while. Grandpa and grandma are still waiting for us outside. After eight months, we will be with Dad. Go home. Those game live broadcasts are very dangerous, you don’t want to play, we can watch other people play together at home, and it’s fun, okay?”

"it is good!"

  The child took a bite of the sliced ​​intestines and shouted "hot hot".

   "When you eat something, try it with your mouth first, don't swallow it..." His mother taught him.

Scenes like    can be seen everywhere on each Dragon Kingdom server.

  The center of their sight is the live broadcast screen.

On the    screen, the tone of the party was booming. The virtual scene of the red peony, red silk and red lanterns rises up, and people seem to be in a red fairyland.

   "—Send away 2021, another year of fire." A magnetic male voice came from the screen.

   "—Welcome to 2022, another year of passion." Followed by a beautiful female voice.

  Two male hosts and two female hosts welcomed the Chinese New Year in the party.

  People sit in teahouses, parks, fountain squares, etc. to watch the party. Some people even set up a large table, and started a prosperous New Year's Eve dinner. They were eating and chatting, and the scene was even hotter than on New Year's Day.

"Looking back on the past, the past year is unforgettable for everyone. One billion human beings have been pulled into the 'world game', and human civilization has embarked on a new voyage. Unknown journeys and unknown harvests are all waiting for us. "The male host's voice came out.

   "Looking to the future, it's better year by year. Our journey will not stop here. The progress bar of the overall human score is progressing well, and we have a bright future!" The hostess's voice continued.

"In the crisis-ridden Henggang apocalypse, we are looking for the vaccine to bring back the blue sky and clear water in the ruins; in the high-tech Bairi Machinery City, we are tracing the traces of the old times in the camp of the rebel army and the Baixiong army; the unique copy of Longguo Mingxi Middle School , we realize the truth of life in 'eternity' and 'instant'; in Terry Town, a werewolf village, peak players uncover the secrets of gods and ghosts between villages..."

   In the speeches of the four hosts, the worlds of the dungeons from the previous four months were mentioned accordingly.

"In Minghui, we travel in colorful magical worlds and pursue the imprint of the dragon; Baisha Paradise, we recall the beautiful love story of Yangxia and Dongxue; Praia Sea Feast, we participate in the soul race and soul hunting race. War, a glimpse of the magnificent legend of the Kraken and Yunshangcheng; in the dome, the top players fought hard among the silver stars to witness the reincarnation history of Baishen and Jiushen..."

"And now, the ninth world that is still going on today - the city of measurement, Akto. There are as many as 18 million adventure players fighting in it, please let us use the warmest applause to pass on the best regards to them. Sincere thanks!"

   With the host's call, the applause continued, like a turbulent ocean.

   In the screen shots of the Spring Festival Gala, many familiar faces crossed, and people saw many people who were very active during the four months.

Liu Jiahe and Lu Changshen, members of the Joint League; Xu Bowen and Xu Changying of the World Independent Society; Li Jianyi and Lu Chunjiang of the Long Guobu Research Group of the Human Self-Saving Research Group; Lin Luohe and Liu Xiling of the ancient martial family; ; Qin Qihui of Kunpeng Department; Wu Qiao of Changying Department; Wu Mintao and Yang Changxu of Wanli Department; Jiang Lin of Dongfeng Department…

  The camera shifted again and came to an area with more young people. This is the special guest area of ​​this Spring Festival Gala, and there are many well-known adventure players.

  "…" In the special guest area, Su Shi is bowing his head and tying the Dragon Kingdom knot in his hand.

   In front of her, red-colored peonies and tulips were bundled in a porcelain vase, the vase was textured like broken glass. The seats and tabletops are all rolled up with red silk, and the reception is of a very high standard.

  Su-style fingers picked up the intact red knot, and the silver bell rattled, she smiled slightly.

   Before she saw the live broadcast of the ninth world, a person named "Xi" gave Su Mingan a red tie. She also makes handmade knots like this. It would be even better if it could be delivered to him in person...

   A black-haired woman next to her glanced at her and said, "You are Su-style, the one who blew up his own house?"

  The camera immediately moves away to prevent their conversation from being recorded.

   "Yes." Su Shi ignored this woman. This woman is a shameless betrayal in her eyes.

   "I..." Yu Ruohe said.

   "I don't want to listen to you!" Su Shi glanced at her.

   Yu Ruohe opened his mouth, but didn't speak any more, just lowered his head again.

   Learning that Yu Ruohe was invited to the Spring Festival Gala, Yu Ruohe's father was so happy that he held a banquet, claiming that she was honored by her ancestors. Yu Ruohe didn't want the scene of himself arguing with Su Shi to be recorded on the camera.

   Yu Ruohe and Su Shi sat next to hundreds of adventurers from the Dragon Kingdom. Among them, a blue-haired boy pushed his glasses, and beside him was a girl with black hair.

   They are Xiao Xiao and Wang Zhenzhen, who fought side by side with Su Mingan in the third world.

   "Xiaoxiao, when I think of the third world..." Wang Zhenzhen said, "I heard that Su Mingan's mental state is not good recently. If we can say a few words of relief to him, will he feel better?"

   "It's all over." Xiao Xiao shook his head: "Now he's too far away from us..."

   "Hmm." Wang Zhenzhen blinked and leaned on his shoulder.

   Xiaoxiao glanced at the live broadcast of the ninth world floating in his right hand, Su Mingan was bloodied all over in the cold night, and there was no one around him.

   In front of us, people sing and dance in the Spring Festival Gala, with spring breeze on their faces, welcoming 2022 and celebrating the new year.

  —I don’t know what gene comes from the optimism of human beings, and they can revel in the apocalypse.

  Perhaps, human beings know that there is no way to go.

  …

   "—When the bells of farewell to the old are ringing in the earth, we will bring the harvest of 2021, sing and dance, and gather together happily."

  "—When the festive fireworks bloom in the night sky, we are not afraid of the challenges of 2022, the waves stop the flying boat, and fight against the wind!"

   "On the occasion of saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new, the Organization Department of the 'World Games' Spring Festival Gala, the Changjiang Department of the Yangtze River System, and the Interim Planning Department of the Joint Mission for New Year's Affairs would like to wish all players a Happy New Year!"

   "- I wish everyone a happy new year and all the best in the new year!"

Along with the sound of the announcement, the background of Yunshangcheng created by the "Lord God World Virtual Scene Architecture System" slowly rose. Thirty dancers in blue veils climbed the Yunshangcheng, swaying, waving blue and white light. The yarn is surging like a cloud of mist.

  Compared to the embarrassing stage play of the previous "World Game Culture Exhibition", this Spring Festival Gala is of a much higher grade. It is also equipped with various super-era visual systems, combined with the background story of the world copy, to create various sketches and dance songs, which are pleasing to the eye.

   In the field of human art, a hundred flowers bloom in these four months, which is a feast for both vision and hearing.

  In the camera, Luan sings and dances to welcome the New Year.

  Outside the camera, there are heavy snowfalls, fireworks are in full swing, firecrackers, shouts, music and laughter are mixed together, playing enthusiastically like a symphony.

   Snow flakes like catkins fell on people's shoulders, putting on a new year's clothing for them.

   For a time, people fell into a kind of joy that was isolated from the outside world. They danced drunkenly in the world and shared the happy life of the moment, as if they wanted to send their joy and joy to the long-term future so smoothly.

   Only some people who were not immersed in the festival stared at the war scene in the ninth world with a worried expression.

  …

  New World Guild Server, Lantian Kindergarten.

   "—Teacher, teacher, it's New Year's Eve! Teacher Happy New Year! All the best!"

   The girl with braided braids jumped at the front and reached out to a female teacher.

Behind the    braided girl, the children lined up like a train, and they rushed to the front of the female teacher. They are all children of the Dragon Kingdom, and their parents are either not selected for the world game, or are too crazy to take care of them.

  The young female teacher touched their heads and handed them the red envelope: "Come, keep it, don't lose it."

   The red envelopes are filled with 100 yuan in cash, and now they are just waste paper. But the little ones don't understand, they are so well protected that they think they are still living in a bygone era.

   They happily stuffed the red envelopes into their pockets and danced around the female teacher.

   "Teacher, it's New Year's Eve, haven't my parents come back yet?" The girl with braids tugged at the corner of her teacher's clothes.

  The female teacher evoked a smile: "The teacher said before that your parents have gone on a trip, and you will be able to see them in eight months..."

   "But I miss them so much..." the braided girl said gloomily.

  The female teacher stood quietly in the same place, and the gorgeous fireworks burst into the air.

   For a time, the fireworks actually lit up the kindergarten as bright as day. The swings and slides are smudged with red-purple brilliance.

   "They will come back..." The female teacher's voice was soft.

   "Teacher, where did Dean Noel go?" The boy next to him excitedly said, "When he comes back, we will set off fireworks with him..."

   "..." The smile on the female teacher's mouth gradually disappeared.

   She remembered the scarlet eyes of the blond boy on the screen.

   "Dean, he...will come back." After a while, the female teacher could only say that.

   She knew that Noel, the president of the New World Guild... was extremely far away from them at this time, and even fell into the crisis of [Hewei] invasion.

  …can he come back?

  …The ninth world, such a complicated and dangerous world, can Noel come back?

  If you can’t…

  …

  【The Ninth World·Keusta】

   Cataclysm December 30, 48, the seventh city, sunset.

  Under the **** sun, the vast red land seems to be flowing with blood, blending with the setting sun.

  The Holy Inquisition, the Heresy Tribunal, the Believers Alliance, and the Mechanical Legion form the four lines of defense of the gods camp, and they are here to jointly fight against the freedom camp. Millions of soldiers and civilians stood under the city wall in darkness, guns and swords flashing a layer of cold light in the setting sun.

  Field, Luther, Izier, Avery, Edmund and other gods camp leaders are waiting on the city wall. Now that the millions of soldiers and civilians of the freedom camp are in the city, this will be their last battle.

   The seventh city lord Ming, walked to the front of the legion and turned his head.

The coat of arms of the    **** camp shone brightly on his shoulders, and he held the red-shell book Revelation on his chest with one hand, facing his millions of soldiers and civilians.
