Volume 6: War and Peace in the Black Forest Chapter 23 Arriving
"How many more?"
"There are probably a dozen more, it will be soon. What's going on with the president?"
"He said he met a big guy during a live broadcast and was led by someone. Now he is so happy. Watching the live broadcast was really boring. Now seeing this in person, I feel that the big guy is really a big guy. This is really scary."
Looking at the translucent world, several players guarding a machine sighed.
At the edge of the Black Forest, there are often some organizations and unions conducting various experiments and deductions. After all, it is not easy to find an abandoned city of elven plague with all the dead in the city, not to mention that they made it themselves. Elves are of all kinds, and their mentalities are also all kinds. Many times, it is even difficult to understand whether they are other individuals of the same race.
Therefore, for the remains of the elven ruins, some elves who are more keen on studying their companions will often hire a group of people who are not afraid of death to set up some observation instruments to study the death status and conclusions of their compatriots.
Elves are an extreme and crazy race, and their pursuit of beauty often leads them to extremes. There are all kinds of light-loving elves who have joined the Holy Light, and there are all kinds of demonic elves who have fallen into hell. Although humans are the most emotional race, no one would object to elves being the most emotionally extreme race. So it is normal for corpse-collecting elves who specialize in touching the corpses of their own kind to carry a bunch of large instruments to monitor the former homes of their companions.
Most people would not do this kind of job, after all, no one would gamble their lives on whether the plague would let them go. But the players were not afraid of this kind of thing, so there were many players on the edge and inside the Dragon City Kuang Shao's guild who accepted similar tasks.
It’s just that those inside are almost all dead now, while those on the edge are still able to fiddle with instruments and give orders.
"This ritual is really amazing. I know this is what the nightmare world looks like, but I have no idea how is done. The school library doesn't explain it either. This ritual must be graduate school-level knowledge, but the teachers are too stingy and don't let me take proper courses. Otherwise, I must analyze the composition of this ritual."
A well-mannered player pushed up his glasses and looked eagerly at the dark forest in front of him, which had turned into a translucent shadow. They had no way to enter this world between reality and illusion again. As long as they took a step forward, they would appear in front of the mountain.
Distance is no longer effective. If one wants to enter the Black Forest, one can only enter this space that has been half-dragged into a nightmare through some mysterious rituals.
But although the players present are capable, none of them have any tendency to self-abuse.
Everyone knew that it was the big guys in the forest who were casting spells to harm people, and their boss was still in there, so who would have the time to get into such bad luck? Although they were players, as guild players and players who still survived miserably in this miserable world, they needed a lot of life-threatening tasks and more teammates to survive in this world.
Not everyone is as reckless as a released prisoner. Especially when the pain nerves have long become detachable, pain becomes another terrifying obstacle. Those who can bear pain are already strong. People like Li Lin are generally called psychopaths. Who would torture themselves to death just to curse an NPC and an area? Although players play for fun, most people will not play so big. For players who are unknown, they can only express their admiration for the big guys.
"Well, boss, I think you should come over and take a look."
"What? Can't you see I'm busy?"
The player who was gesturing at the transparent forest said without turning back:
"If you call me because of the energy level change in the forest, I will be really angry. The president is in there, so what are you afraid of? If the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up, and you won't die."
"Well, no, it's just that I saw a particularly large shadow on the space readings..."
"What's going on?"
The player looked at the dial on an instrument curiously.
A huge shadow appeared on the light green interface, slowly moving towards this side.
Looking at the huge shadow, the player in charge of monitoring showed a somewhat embarrassed expression and looked at the person in charge who looked unpredictable:
"Such a large shadow... doesn't it look like a flock of birds?"
"…It should be the shadow of the flying boat that was reported last time. It was said that it needed to borrow a passage to travel through the subspace."
"Oh, really? Borrowing the road at this time? There won't be any problems, right? Do you want to give them a call?"
"This game phone is so expensive, you will pay for it when the time comes. It's a magic sensor phone, you can't just spend money on it, you better take it easy. Besides, what big problem can go wrong? Can the Black Forest blow up?"
“That’s right…”
The player in charge of monitoring thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case.
Such a large floating shadow is probably the so-called flying boat. I heard that it is sometimes used as a gathering place for a race, as big as a city. So large. Compared with the size of the city, the huge shadow is at most a... um, a relatively large urban area?
But who cares? Nothing can happen. Although it looks dangerous, there is no need to be afraid since we have been notified. Can a flying boat overturn the sky?
"I'll watch the live broadcast too. What's going on there?"
The player in charge of monitoring quickly lost interest and looked at the live broadcast interface.
Apart from these players, only a few powerful people know that there is a mysterious and terrifying land falling towards the Black Forest.
Some people wanted to stop it, but were stopped by another group of people. They collided in the void, evaporated, and then splashed ripples, and finally returned to calm. No one knew what the dispute was, and no one knew what the result was.
But what we know now is that the shadow displayed on the player's instrument is refreshing and floating towards the entire Black Forest little by little. Like a starry sky beast guided by something, it has a terrifying and huge momentum gliding in the void, and with a soft and ethereal singing, it gradually drives towards the fixed altar.
