Volume 3: Death in Progress Chapter 042 The Real Protagonist
At this moment in a small room, a fair-skinned boy with slightly long hair was sitting in front of the computer, staring blankly at the screen, but his brows were tightly furrowed.
"Yun Yun didn't activate my setting after all! But at least Li Xuan survived. I'll take a look at the Women's Village to see if anyone else survived besides Wang Lin. Let me take a look..."
"What! Wang Lin is dead?"
When the young man saw the part about Wang Lin's death, a trace of fear appeared on his face: "How could Wang Lin die? He is the protagonist of this novel I conceived! How could the protagonist die? I clearly set it up so that he would not die."
The young man just couldn't understand. The overall plot of the novel was completely based on his previous ideas and the fonts were generated automatically and appeared in the Word document. It had always been like this before. Wang Lin was the male protagonist in his novel, so Wang Lin was able to survive 19 missions. But now the novel was less than halfway through and the male protagonist died. He had never heard of such a thing.
"Damn it, this book already had poor performance, and now even the male protagonist is dead. People who read the book must think that I, the author, am an idiot. What should I do? Aren't the books uploaded anymore?"
The young man hesitated for a moment and then shook his head. "Let's just upload it. Anyway, this book has already got an A. As long as I keep uploading, I'll get a perfect attendance reward. The grades are already terrible, so let the male lead die! Then I'll find another protagonist. What's a novel without a protagonist? Let's make Li Xuan the protagonist this time!"
After the boy figured it out, he opened the Word document and tried to forcefully insert a paragraph about Li Xuan becoming the protagonist. However, he was horrified to find that he could not type on the document. The document refused to be modified!
"I just don't believe it. I'm rebuilding Word!"
After recreating a Word file, the boy began typing again. However, although he could type the fonts this time, he could not save it.
"What's going on?" The young man couldn't help but feel a little scared when he saw this scene. After all, the novel he conceived was a horror novel. After thinking for a moment, he deleted the original content about the novel in Word and typed some other words randomly, but this time it was saved. After that, he tried several more times to save the part he modified, but the result was still the same and could not be saved!
After the young man tried many times without success, he couldn't help but show anger on his face. "Damn it! Anyway, I just want the royalties. You can write whatever you want. Anyway, the idea is mine without the protagonist. I want to see how the novel can go on without the protagonist!"
After the young man turned off the computer, he slammed the door and left. It was obvious that he was very angry. When he first learned that his document had such a magical effect, he considered whether his computer was infected and controlled by a Trojan horse. However, he checked the Internet and did not find such a Trojan horse. Later, by coincidence, he opened the Word document to conceive a novel, and what he wanted to write began to appear on Word by itself. After that, he took advantage of the magic of this document and submitted his novel to the Internet. He would receive a sum of royalties every month without any effort.
The young man doesn't know yet, but it was the forced setting he made for Yun Yun and Li Xuan that changed the entire plot, although the change was very subtle.
Hongzheng City is not a big city in the southern region. Compared with some big cities, Hongzheng City is just equivalent to a small county town, and Chen Yue and his wife live in this city.
Chen Yue is 26 years old this year. Her husband Shen Cheng is 8 years older than her. Although there is an 8-year age difference between them, their marriage is still relatively happy this year.
Chen Yue was originally an accountant in a shopping mall. By chance, she met the general manager of an electrical appliance manufacturer who was 8 years older than her. Although Chen Yue did not like Shen Cheng at that time, because Shen Cheng was a communist and a small rich man, Chen Yue forced herself to marry Shen Cheng. Fortunately, Shen Cheng treated her well, but Shen Cheng was always on business trips for work, which made Chen Yue very unhappy.
However, this month is a good month for Chen Yue, because her husband Shen Cheng was on a business trip for a whole month last month, and this month Shen Cheng will not be on a business trip again, but will stay at home with her.
After eating dinner early, Chen Yue went to bed with her husband Shen Cheng. As for what to do, they naturally had to be intimate after not seeing each other for a month. After being intimate, Chen Yue and Shen Cheng both felt tired, so they hugged each other and fell asleep.
"Huh! Huh! Why do I feel so tired? I feel like I can't breathe... It's so uncomfortable..." Chen Yue fell asleep, not knowing whether she was dreaming or not. She felt her body was very tired. She struggled to open her eyes, but what she saw was an endless expanse of blood red. The blood red was as bright as blood. Chen Yue was so scared that she screamed.
"ah--!"
" Xiaoyue wake up, what's wrong, Xiaoyue?"
Chen Yue opened her eyes and found Shen Cheng looking at her with concern. Chen Yue wiped the sweat from her forehead and said with some lingering fear: "It's okay, I had a nightmare!"
Shen Cheng was relieved when he heard that Chen Yue had just had a nightmare, but Chen Yue’s nightmare had just begun!
Three days passed in a blink of an eye. Zhang Fengyu learned from Li Xuan that today was the day when the newcomers arrived at the Death Base. Therefore, Zhang Fengyu, Li Xuan and Chen Ping came to the carriage early and waited.
Suddenly the expressions of the three people changed, because three new people had appeared on the ground.
One female and two males.
It is not difficult to tell from their appearance that the woman is probably in her 30s, and the two men don't look very old, about the same age as Zhang Fengyu.
Seeing these three people suddenly appearing, Zhang Fengyu felt a little uncomfortable, because it reminded him of the scenes when he came to this death base.
Seeing the newcomers appear, Chen Ping said to Li Xuan: "As the captain, you will naturally explain the rules to the newcomers."
Li Xuan nodded and replied to Chen Ping calmly: "Of course I understand."
The first person to wake up was the woman in her thirties. The first thing she did after waking up was to let out a shrill scream. Then she ran quickly to a corner of the carriage. After finding that the train had no doors, she kept knocking on the window.
"Help! Help!"
During this process, the middle-aged woman was so frightened that she didn't even look closely at her surroundings, let alone notice Zhang Fengyu and the other two sitting on the side, and the two men on the ground were obviously ignored by her.
Before Zhang Fengyu could remind them, the two young men on the ground also got up from the ground, shaking their heads. Although they did not scream like the middle-aged woman, the fear in their hearts could be seen from the fear on their faces.
"Newbies, welcome to the Death Base!"
Li Xuan stood up from her seat and spoke to the three newcomers. After hearing Li Xuan's voice, the three of them were stunned at the same time, and then their eyes were filled with deep doubts.
Just like Zhang Fengyu at that time, the three of them were also thinking in their hearts: "Who is this woman? Where are those ghosts? What is the Death Base!"
