Chapter 835: Eight hundred and thirty four

  Chapter 835 Chapter Eight Hundred Thirty-Four · "I won't die."

  【Joint Regiment Eastern District Conference Hall】

  In the spacious conference hall, the chief of staff of the joint regiment, Ashkel, had a dignified face.

  In the hall, more than fifty people in suits and leather shoes looked at the screen seriously. The people behind lowered their heads to record, and their fingers and keyboard almost slipped out of afterimages.

   Chief of Staff Ashkelle is the leader of the "Hero Project". Aiming at creating heroes in the current situation, his plan once reversed the pessimistic trend of public opinion. But now, with the end of the ninth world, people with red eyes appeared in the world of the main gods, and human beings began to be chaotic again.

   "Who is attacking our account?" Ashkel asked.

"Chief of Staff, it may be the [Human Self-Salvation Alliance] launched an attack on us." Suzuki Kentaro, who originally belonged to the Fuso Ground Self-Defense Force Mecha Division and now belongs to the Shouzuru Department of the United Regiment, said: "This kind of invasion method is like The skill effect of the adventurer Ryan. He is a well-known hacker player, even though his strength has been emptied, his hacker skills are still quickly catching up, and he is at the forefront of the players."

   "The Human Self-Saving Alliance and we belong to the same human mutual aid organization, and we work together. I don't think they will attack us." Qiaomanni of the Red Heart Volunteer Association shook her head.

  Ashkel remained silent, his frowning already revealed his anxiety.

"All perfect passers can fulfill a wish, this is a certified rule." A middle-aged man from Godler's department said: "Now, all organizations want to compete for the existing perfect passers, and they want to give away the right to wish In the hands of human beings themselves. As the largest human organization, the United Group will indeed be targeted."

   "It won't be long before there will be more attacks. I heard that there have been a lot of medical troubles in the regional service branch of the Peace Dove Hospital recently, which doesn't seem to be accidental." Scientific research representative Abela said.

   "Damn... Obviously we are all for the future of mankind..." An unwilling man hammered the table with a helpless face.

  I don't know who sighed softly.

   "Why are they fighting each other...?"

   "Who knows, people's hearts are separated from each other."

   “We may not all be good people.”

   "Chief of Staff, I want to ask a question." On the table, the adventurer representative Derrick suddenly raised his hand: "Is Edward still alive?"

   When he asked this question, the audience fell silent.

  People's eyes were focused on Ashkel, and even the pens in their hands stopped.

   They have been very concerned about Edward's problem.

  As an adventure player who once passed the level perfectly, but was personally defeated by the first player, what will happen to Edward? Was he given up mercilessly, exposing the disgrace of the joint regiment when it ran out, or was he given enough compensation so that he could make a comeback?

  Edward has offended Su Mingan, does the joint group value Su Mingan's face, or do they value their own people more?

  The complexions of several members of Godler's department changed slightly. They used to support Edward's faction. Edron was the leader among them, and now that the feng shui took turns, and Edward was gone, it was their turn to bow their heads like quails, daring not to make a sound.

  Ashkel's expression remained the same, without showing any flaws on his face, and he replied appropriately: "Edward is still alive, and he is receiving the best mental treatment, so he will never be able to show up."

"Really?" Agnes, the representative of adventurers, straightened the broken hair beside her ears, and said with a charming smile, "Then Chief of Staff, you must let him receive proper treatment. I'm still waiting for the moment when he reappears." Such a handsome young man, I wish he was alive."

   "Of course." Ashkelle said firmly: "We respect the lives of all people."

  He turned his eyes and saw that no one spoke. Just about to talk about the next topic, he suddenly heard:

   "—What about Su Mingan? Don't you respect his life?"

  Everyone was shocked and looked towards the player Aiden behind him. I saw that his dark pupils were full of hostility, and his expression was already a little angry.

   Aiden is a top player with no outstanding personality, he is a gentle normal person. On weekdays, most of the guest officials in the joint regiment remained silent and kept quiet. No one expected him to be so angry all of a sudden.

   "Aiden, you..." Ashkelle said in surprise.

"Edward in the world of ruins has always killed Su Ming'an, disregarding the overall situation, ignoring the plot, targeting Su Ming'an, and even attacking the observer Yueyue. I can't accept it." Aiden said coldly: "I have no doubt that if someone Chances are, Edward will definitely choose to be the organizer's dog and target humans themselves. It is reasonable for him to die. But I don't see the value of this person representing human beings at all. I can only say that you are wrong He even said that he respected his life in a high-sounding manner. If one day I stood in front of him, wouldn't you all be partial to him?"

  The person next to him immediately comforted him in a low voice, saying no, we respect everyone equally. We treated Edward simply because we would not give up anyone's life.

   "The situation in the world of ruins has already explained one point very well—Su Ming'an is our hope!" The reason for Aiden's drastic change in attitude is precisely what the world of ruins revealed. He got up and said coldly: "I came to this meeting today just to tell everyone. Asa Akto's experience has proved that we don't need additional perfect passers! Su Mingan, as Asa Akto Only he can save mankind. Leaders with great love, if you focus on 'everyone' again, you will lose this 'everyone' sooner or later."

   Aiden left after speaking, leaving only the quiet conference room.

  The silence in the conference room lasted for a long time, everyone was thinking about Aiden's words.

  The information explosion exposed in the world of ruins has completely refurbished their concepts, and they have not yet recovered from such a large amount of information.

   "The original theory about the world of ruins... will be discussed later." Finally, Ashkelle said so.

  His expression was a little bitter.

  The United Group was founded with the purpose of "for the majority of people to survive". In any case, it is impossible for them to only entrust hope to one person, and this is to be responsible for the entire human population.

  They don’t have resetting, no mind reading, and the only thing they have is a sense of responsibility and a sense of mission. They gave up fighting for points for themselves, and gathered here for free, just to maintain a group of billions of human beings.

  No one knows whether the information about the ruined world is a trap by the organizer. As leaders, they tend to act step by step, neither leap forward nor impulsive.

  The meeting continues.

  Dong Jiangpeng of the Changbai Department under the Yangtze River System proposed that in the name of the joint group and with the theme of "the future of mankind", all the perfect passers should be convened to hold a meeting to listen to their ideas.

  Dong Jiangpeng's proposal was approved by most people. The world is changing, and public opinion is sweeping like a storm. Although not all perfect passers will be successful, at least they are all candidates, and they may all control the planet in the future.

   Soon, an invitation post for the joint group meeting "All perfect passers, this world needs you" was posted on the World Forum under the official account of the joint group. The content is to invite all perfect passers to come to the 12th district to participate in the meeting at 20:00 on February 10th to discuss the future of mankind.

   Once the post was extremely popular, the attention soared to hundreds of millions in an instant, and it became the hottest topic on the forum. In the post, the names "please come to the first player" and "please come to Noel, the power holder" are mentioned in the post, which seems to put the two in the most important position.

  …

   "Beep, beep, beep—"

   Called the communication, but still no one picked up.

  Su Mingan stared at the strawberry Nuoer's portrait in his hand, but Nuoer still didn't reply.

   "Let's rest first." Su Lin approached with a pot of milk tea: "Drink a cup of tea and get some sleep. If something happens, I will keep an eye on it."

  Su Mingan's gaze was fixed on the cup of milk tea that looked like scarlet blood for a moment, and he pulled away as if electrocuted. This liquid looks very suspicious at first glance, and it must not be drunk.

  He rubbed his temples, and Lu Shu next to him stretched out his hand, as if he wanted to help him take the milk tea, but Su Mingan immediately held him down and stopped him, avoiding a disaster.

   "I'm going to find Nuoer." Seeing that the communication still couldn't be dialed, Su Mingan got up.

  As soon as he stood up, his body shook violently, and he almost fell over. The moment his eyes flickered, a steady weight came from his shoulders, and Su Lin and Lu Shu held him down.

   "If he is picked up by the organizer, you won't find him when you go." Su Rin said.

   "I'll just go, you need to rest." Lu Shu said.

  Su Mingan raised his shoulders, and the two immediately let go.

   "I just went to the New World Guild to see if he was there, at least to confirm that he was taken away." Su Mingan started.

  He walked straight out, and quickly rushed past the villa. Lu Shu trotted behind him, but Su Rin did not follow.

  Su Mingan walked quickly through the park, and he noticed that not only the park, but even taverns, teahouses, streets and alleys and other places... people's discussions are everywhere, and they are all topics related to the world of ruins.

  Although the usual dungeon topics are highly discussed, there is no such thing as the world of ruins. Almost everyone is discussing, putting themselves in the place of worry and emotion, as if talking about their own destiny.

  He arrived at the square and arrived at the New World Guild through the teleportation array. Facing the dazzling Liuliding, the New World Guild is still in the style of a fairy tale, and there is a feeling of stepping into a fairy tale book.

  He first went to the orphanage to confirm that Noel was not there. I went to the office where Noel often stayed, but saw no one. On the way, he was covered with a black fog of privacy. Because Noel had given him the permission to enter, he went all the way unimpeded, almost a carpet search.

  The longer the time, the heavier the heart.

   Lu Shu followed him until he stopped completely.

  Su Mingan stared at the blue sky in front of him, with snow falling on his shoulders. He stared blankly at the falling snow in the sky, and the flakes of snow melted on his cheeks one by one.

   Knoll was not found.

  Nowhere.

   "...Go back." Su Mingan said.

   It can be confirmed that Noel was taken away.

  He turned around, covered in black mist, walked through empty rooms, people laughing and chatting, and walked through long corridors and squares...

   Lu Shu silently followed behind him, like a silent guard.

   Along the way, neither of them made a sound, and the feeling of heaviness intensified.

   "Su Ming'an." Finally, Lu Shu couldn't help but said, "I'll bake you a sweet potato, or roasted corn. Don't be sad."

  He doesn't know any method of comfort, and can only comfort the other party through this limited ability he has mastered. Even if it's just to make the other person laugh, it's fine.

   "It's okay." Su Mingan hooked his lips, and didn't say much.

   "Shall I make you tea?" Lu Shu followed up.

   "I don't drink tea anymore." Su Mingan said.

   "Is it because of 'him'?"

"…Um."

   They walked all the way through the long snow scene, Su Mingan stepped on the snow, walking back step by step, all the way in silence.

  Back to his own villa, Su Mingan was taken aback.

  He saw a small figure.

  At the entrance of the villa, the blond boy sat in front of the rose bushes, with his back to him. The water light from the fountain stained the boy's fluttering blond hair, reflecting icy brilliance.

  The blood-like red robe was draped over the overlapping leaves. The boy sat in the wind and snow, but he seemed to be integrated into the wind and snow. His hair was fluttering in the cold wind, like bird feathers fluttering with the wind.

  Hearing the movement, the blond boy turned his head and glanced at Su Mingan.

   "You...haven't been taken away?" Su Mingan didn't expect that Noel was not taken away, but came here to wait for him.

  Nanol...why didn't you reply to his message?

  Noel raised his eyes, got up, and approached step by step.

Da da da.

  The high-top shoes hit the road surface, as clear and pleasant as a musical instrument.

  Finally, Noel walked up to him, opened his arms, and gave him a gentle hug.

  This hug has a fresh fragrance of flowers and earth, and the strength is very light. It is not as heavy as the handover of the 33rd week, and it is more like a light farewell.

   "I won't be taken away within three days. It won't be until three days later." Noel said softly, "All my player functions have been temporarily frozen, so I can't receive your private messages."

  …frozen?

  Su Mingan's pupils shrunk.

   Wouldn’t it be that... the puppet silk can’t be used, weapons can’t be used, and the world forum can’t be seen?

  Like an ordinary person who has lost all privileges, he has lost the game system in this game world. Even the crow was frozen, and any reliable ability could not be used, and even messages could not be sent out...

  Su Mingan looked at Nuo Er, but Nuo Er didn't have any sadness on his face, but smiled easily.

   "It's okay." Noel smiled, pointing to his own head: "This is my biggest weapon."

  Su Mingan stared at him for a long time before nodding: "I believe."

  With the top wisdom of human beings and the strong will of an explorer, Noel will not be afraid no matter what he faces, even in the face of death.

   "Go back to sleep, everyone will be fine." Noel always smiled, making it difficult to see how sad he was.

  Obviously three days later, you will meet an unknown fate and the judgment of "God".

  He clung to Su Mingan's ear, his tone so soft that it seemed to be reassuring.

"When you wake up, let's play together for three days and celebrate the New Year together. I have prepared a lot of interesting activities and I want to share them with you... We will make dumplings, cook New Year's Eve dinner, play board games, and watch the wedding. Bring Lin Yin , Yamada, Luna, let's go together."

   Nuoer held Su Mingan's hand and held down his own heart.

   It's still beating there.

  He is still smiling.

   "I'm not going to die."

"I promise."
