Chapter 6: Closed Beta Players
Mo Jianchu hugged the unconscious Ling Yao tightly, feeling an indescribable pain in his heart.
If it were the past, he would have started killing people and stealing goods.
But now, he just wants to do his best to protect her and prevent her from getting hurt at all.
Although Mo Jianchu told himself more than once: the characters here are just a piece of program code, not "people" in the true sense.
But emotionally, he has become assimilated with the world.
Mo Jianchu took a deep breath, and when he opened his eyes again, his eyes became extremely firm.
"I will definitely take you out!"
After knowing the direction of the lake, Mo Jianchu used [Sprint] again and rushed towards it with all his strength.
【Staring into the Abyss】The weather in the world changes very obviously.
In just a few minutes, the scope of the glow in the distance quickly shrank, and its color changed from purple-red to pink, then pink to light red, and finally disappeared.
As night fell, the chill suddenly hit, and clouds of white catkins floated down from the sky.
"Is it snowing?"
Mo Jianchu stared at the sky and the sea of stars, and the hot breath he exhaled quickly liquefied into mist.
At this time, Ling Yao's body temperature was losing rapidly.
He gently put Ling Yao down, took off his remaining white clothes and wrapped them around her.
A strange laughter came from behind:
"Hehe, aren't you going to run away?"
Mo Jianchu suddenly turned around, but found no one.
He swallowed secretly, pretended to be calm, and shouted loudly:
"Who is it?! Who is talking?! Come out quickly!"
The sound echoed throughout the valley, startling hundreds of birds.
There seems to be something terrible hidden at the end of the deep and dark mountain forest.
Mo Jianchu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and kept comforting himself:
It's an auditory hallucination! It's an auditory hallucination!
Calm down first! Calm down!
Despite this, he still felt that his heart was beating so hard that it seemed like it was about to burst out of his throat.
The fear of the unknown is often the scariest.
"Are you scared? Why don't you go offline? As long as you disconnect, won't you be safe?" The crisp voice came from all directions again, making it impossible to find the specific location of the sound source.
"Stop pretending! Come out quickly!" Mo Jianchu's eyes widened and he kept scanning all the places where people could hide.
He could now conclude that the voice came from a player.
In other games, players usually have a friendly and cooperative relationship.
But "Staring into the Abyss" breaks through the traditional concept.
From the initial underlying design, it is not a peaceful and harmonious game.
Its large number of gameplays are all explicitly stated to encourage players to fight among themselves.
Once a duel occurs, the loser will have a high probability of dropping items, even if it is a god-level item.
Therefore, Mo Jianchu did not relax because he was a player, but instead became more cautious and cautious.
The reason is that he is indeed a god!
That is a top-notch treasure that can only be found!
There was a "pop" sound, and a piece of bark behind Mo Jianchu suddenly fell to the ground.
Behind the bark of the tree is a girl wearing a light green dress.
The girl's collar is embroidered with dark purple rosettes, and there are dense rows of blue seawater ripples on the hem. Her chest is wrapped in a wide piece of brocade, and her long skirt is spread out by gently turning her body.
She has a petite and exquisite body, a slight smile on her face, her skin is fair and tender, and she is so cute when she blows a blow. From a distance, she can see the fairy descending from the mortal world. Her wide sleeves are loose and pink jade is required to be belted. Her waist is slender and charming.
Mo Jianchu wanted to check her information immediately, but to his surprise, the other party's information was completely hidden.
Is it because of that thing?
Mo Jianchu turned his attention to the pair of ruby earrings with golden threads outlining a few sunset glows.
"Hmph, you guessed it right. These earrings are indeed [Anonymous Earrings] that can hide the identity of players and NPCs. Although it is only rated at Secret Level 5, it is a must-have item for killing people, stealing goods, and stealing. Why?
?Are you excited?" The girl made a provocative and enchanting gesture, caressing her earrings, staring at Mo Jianchu with her clear eyes, and said with a playful smile.
Mo Jianchu shook his head and said angrily: "You have followed me for so long just to show off your earrings?"
"Of course not! I'm here to make a deal with you."
"I don't have anything of equal value that I can trade with you. I still have things to do, so I'll say goodbye. I'll see you later."
"Hey wait! Don't you have a dying big shot on your hands? If you are willing to let me share her treasure, then the [Anonymous Earring] belongs to you. You will not lose, and I will also get the benefit.
Win-win!”
"Sorry, I just accepted a mission - to escort her safely to her destination. If you try to rob her, please be prepared to be bitten by me to the death!"
Mo Jianchu picked up the hidden sword and held it in front of Ling Yao with his backhand.
The veins on his face popped out, like an angry lion, ready to pounce forward at any time.
This move startled the girl, and she subconsciously took a few steps back.
