Xu Shuo picked up the file on the desktop and read it.
in these documents.
On the surface, they were investigating abnormalities in the script, but in reality, they were all investigating possible abnormalities in him.
The anchor of the investigation is him.
but.
Xu Shuo had already expected this after telling Luo Kai about the glass bottle at the amusement park.
Because he believes that the other party will not be a fool.
Now it seems that it feels right.
So when investigating.
In order not to attract the attention of the official machinery, when Luo Kai asked the officials for help due to lack of personal strength, his starting point was to investigate those scripted incidents.
And Luo Kai came over today with this pile of information for a showdown.
He might be trying to threaten something, or he might be trying to persuade Xu Shuo. In short, no matter what the real purpose was, Luo Kai did not really expose Xu Shuo's abnormality to the world's officials.
He only revealed one thing to the authorities in a safe and specious manner - there was something wrong with this person.
As for what the problem is.
That is for the two of them to discuss it themselves.
This is what the other party does.
As a last resort, it ensures the reasonable acceptance of the other party.
All in all, I can't find any major faults.
Therefore, when facing Luo Kai's cautious temptation, Xu Shuo did not avoid anything and directly handed over the truth of "The Blessed One of the Abyss".
He wasn't worried about Luo Kai's sudden attack.
After all, in addition to the official people, there was also a voyeuristic sight that Xu Shuo felt was particularly familiar to him and existed almost every day.
The latter is not always under surveillance.
Instead, a time period and behavior monitoring are fixed.
For example, you check to see if he has gone out at a fixed time every morning, and at a fixed time after get off work in the evening to see if he has returned home. When he goes out to discuss business, you will also take time to peek and see what business he is doing.
Xu Shuo: Tsk.
Over time, after being poked and peeped by that guy for a long time, he almost got used to it.
After all, there is currently no ability to stop it.
Since it can't be stopped.
Then you can just mess it up and enjoy it.
So if Luo Kai wants to take action, just do it.
Just in time to see Lose's reaction.
Xu Shuo is in ruins.jpg.
…
But Luo Kai is very stable.
Amazingly stable.
After revealing a little innocuous information to the officials, he activated the jamming device openly, indicating that only the two of them would know the content of the conversation, and then used a roundabout way to test the whole process.
He didn't deliberately hide his thoughts.
Nor did he shy away from his possible hostility.
Shockingly sincere!
Then Luo Kai sighed again: "It's like this now, big brother, I just ask you to join me in giving this world more hope."
Xu Shuo said tactfully: "The defense line has been set up and is working."
"Defense line? How much role can a defense line play? Let me tell you a joke, all the "worlds that set up defense lines to resist after the erosion of the abyss" will eventually be gone. "
"It's pretty funny."
"I also think it's quite funny, so the erosion of the abyss is already an irreversible situation."
Luo Kai sighed again.
That joke is equivalent to "all humans who have breathed the air will eventually die", which is as unreasonable as it is true and terrifying.
So what Luo Kai can do now.
This is to allow this world where "abyss trolls appear in three months" to live a little longer, so that all lives will not be wiped out in just a few months, and that the world will not be completely devoured by the abyss in just a few years.
At least……
At least the final result is not death before their eyes.
So what will the world be like a few hundred years from now?
It's not something they need to think about.
…
And this time.
Luo Kai finally revealed the ultimate purpose of his trip.
——The power of defense tower.
"I learned from Player Plaza that in addition to early warning and resistance, the role of the defense line will also stimulate its removal and purification capabilities when it touches the pollution of the abyss, slowing down the collapse of the world."
Luo Kai said: "But these are the premise that if the abyss is not close to the defense line, it will not be activated."
Xu Shuo raised his eyebrows: "Can we even get this information in the Player Plaza?"
"In fact, as long as you search with snacks, there is almost nothing you can't understand. What's more, I even went to the Star Club for this purpose." Luo Kai said helplessly.
"That's right. But I remember that your officials are already studying the defense line? Haven't you researched these yet?" Xu Shuo rubbed his chin and said. .
"...I don't think this is something that can be studied by ordinary people."
"You have to have some faith in ordinary people."
"But even the players haven't studied it."
Luo Kai seemed to be tired and raised his chin: "Let's be serious, although this world is not necessarily your fault, it still has some responsibility for you, right?"
With his other hand, he made a finger-tip gesture to the universe.
Then Luo Kai continued: "I know that you have something to do with the trial, and I also know that the defense line is managed by the trial. So... instead of waiting until the world becomes an abyss battlefield before it is activated, why not let us use it now."
Luo Kai said softly and looked up at him.
Xu Shuo paused.
He had seen the power of the Defense Tower in the Giant Castle Abyss battlefield.
At that time, facing the black tide of abyss monsters (seemed to be caused by him), all players in Giant Castle retreated to the "defense line", using the power of the tower to resist the charge of abyss monsters, and persisted until help arrived.
So in a way.
The defensive line does have the strength to fight the Abyss.
However, its power is passively activated. If the darkness of the abyss does not reach the defense line, it will not resist.
Therefore, all we can do now is prevention and resistance.
And this person... actually had the audacity to directly use the power of defense to fight against the abyss, but this behavior was tantamount to drinking poison to quench his thirst.
Xu Shuo looked at Luo Kai - it could be seen that this man was indeed running around sleeplessly during this period.
The last time he wanted to see Themis, he had tidied up his hair. As a result, after a while, not only was his beard unkempt, but his curly hair was messy, and his eyes were also bloodshot.
If it looked like the vicissitudes of being twenty-five or six years old before, now it is the vicissitudes of being thirty years old and fifty.
Luo Kai rarely begged.
Even though he had been cheated out of thousands of points before, he only felt a little pain, but this time things were different.
As he said.
He doesn't want this world to perish before his eyes.
Because there are still many people in this world who care.
This time, Luo Kai looked very serious.
But the two sides looked at each other for a long time.
Especially the young man's face remains expressionless.
Luo Kai suddenly opened his mouth with a broken expression: "Although you think you don't need to worry so much when you are alone, maybe you can also take your sister away, but what about the people in your studio...
“What about those other people you know?
"Don't you have..."
Xu Shuo raised his hand to interrupt his continued lyricism.
"Even if I can easily agree to you, I may not be able to convince the trial to let you use the power of defense, because there should be no such precedent in the script space. Don't take me too seriously." Xu Shuo said lightly.
"I know, I just want to fight for it." Luo Kai said with a sigh of relief.
Don’t be afraid of not succeeding, just be afraid of not trying.
Xu Shuo glanced at him, then turned his head slightly and said, "So, do you think this is okay?"
Luo Kai was stunned: "What?"
He responded subconsciously.
But after he looked over, he realized that what the young man just said didn't seem to be talking to him.
The other party's peripheral vision fell behind.
But there was no one else but them in their entire row of booths by the window, and there were no pedestrians stopping outside the window, only cars speeding by.
So who is he talking to? !
In other words, besides other players, what kind of power can penetrate this jamming device and hear their conversations?
Thinking of this, Luo Kai became embarrassed again.
…
Opposite the cafe.
In the office building on the other side of the overpass.
Los, who was deserting, covered his face.
He is actually very cautious in investing his attention now.
Because he knows that the other person is very sensitive, he will not stare for a long time, and his eyes will not even specifically fall on the other person himself, but will usually fall to the side to avoid the concentration of eyes.
but……
Xu Shuo's mental power grew too fast.
Not only are you aware of his visit now, but you even seem to have guessed that he is eavesdropping?
Ross did eavesdrop on the whole thing...
Originally, he just wanted to take a casual look.
But after seeing Luo Kai, his impression of this person was that of a player who "runs around in the real world to deal with the abyss." Moreover, Luo Kai had always approached Xu Shuo to deal with the abyss in the past.
So, he thought it would be the same this time.
Since it was about the abyss, some unexpected and difficult situations might occur, so Los felt that he should pay attention to it for a while longer.
So he looked a little longer.
Although it was later discovered that it was not an abyss event.
But it seems to be a topic about Xu Shuo’s melons.
So he subconsciously continued to read...
The results have now been discovered.
And he was caught directly.
Ross covered his face and was speechless for a moment at his behavior.
Xu Shuo's inexplicable words just now were, as expected, addressed to him, and the question he asked was exactly the topic that the two people had just discussed.
——Calling on the power of the “line of defense”.
Can he make the decision on this matter?
He had to sneak across to this world!
Ross rubbed his brow.
At this time, perhaps because he had not responded for too long, Xu Shuo's voice sounded again.
"you do not know?"
It’s no longer about asking if I can.
Instead, ask him directly if he knows a way.
There was not much emotion in the young man's voice, and even his expression remained calm. But when Los couldn't help but focus his eyes again, it seemed that his eyes were also touched.
So Los, who was still struggling, sighed helplessly.
He stood up from his workstation, walked out of the studio with his head lowered, and headed to the public restroom on the side of the floor.
But after walking to the bathroom door.
He noticed two people in the cubicle.
So after hesitating for a moment, Ross remembered the rooftop where he had gone to rescue his boss.
There are few people there, which is actually quite suitable.
Even if the emotion spills over, it will not affect the people around you.
Ross walked up to the rooftop, looked up at the sky with a dull expression, then took off the glasses on his face, and disappeared in an instant.
…
Black Star Cafe.
Next to the booth by the window.
Luo Kai didn't have any consciousness, and he didn't feel any signs. Someone quietly sat on the seat opposite him.
He couldn't even determine when the other party appeared.
Just when he suddenly glanced over from the corner of his eye, that person was already there.
Luo Kai was shocked when he reacted.
His pupils were slightly dilated, and he was so shocked that he wanted to remain silent, but in fact he was very obviously looking at the person.
The other party was wearing a black and gray suit that was somewhat loose and ill-fitting. He was sitting there with his head lowered, his hands clenched and resting on his thighs, with a somewhat reserved posture.
This man should be young, but his pure black hair is too thick and slightly obscures his eyebrows. He also wears a pair of wide-rimmed black glasses on his face, which makes him look very old-fashioned and mature.
But thinking of the way he suddenly appeared.
This old-fashioned temperament seems to have a mysterious color?
All in all...it's weird.
"I didn't expect you to come here?"
Xu Shuo was a little surprised when he saw Los coming directly over, but when he saw his timid look, he twitched his mouth again.
How domineering it was to destroy the abyss troll with just one wave of his hand.
Why is this actually the case?
Lose didn't know what others were complaining about, but he felt it a little bit in their eyes.
He lowered his head and pushed up his glasses and said: "The thing you mentioned... is not impossible, but I can't do it. Because the defense line is a creation of the Tower of Judgment, it requires the authority of the Judgment. But the Judgment, usually I won’t agree to this unreasonable request, and Themis probably won’t agree to it either.”
"What's the reason?" Luo Kai asked subconsciously.
"..."
Ross raised his head slightly and glanced at him.
After touching the almost identical cold gaze behind the lens, Luo Kai's mind froze, and he immediately realized his casual behavior just now.
Damn it, this person's appearance is so deceptive!
Why are you such a big boss so cowering?
Are you so steady? !
Luo Kai smiled awkwardly but politely.
Ross glanced at him and continued: "Because the emotions of creatures are ever-changing, because creatures can be fearful, timid, inferior, and partial.
“Most of them have difficulty controlling their emotions.
“It’s hard to control your own behavior.
"The Tower of Judgment is indifferent, they will not believe the emotions of living beings."
Lose stared directly at Luo Kai, his voice was very calm and gentle, as if he was telling a story.
It's just that those eyes without fluctuations are a bit scary.
The thick lenses of his plain glasses also made this look even more inorganic and cold.
Inexplicably a little scary.
It was like being targeted by an abyss troll.
Luo Kai moved his neck silently, as if stuck, and turned his attention to the young man who was leaning back on the sofa and crossing one leg in a leisurely manner. Then he suddenly felt that Xu Shuo was actually not difficult to get along with at all!
At least the latter will give you a smile.
Although that smile is not very sincere and reliable.
"Look what I'm doing, do you understand what he means?" Xu Shuo raised his eyebrows when he saw him looking over.
"I understand..." Luo Kai pursed his lips slightly.
In short -
Human emotions are too complex, so it is impossible for the Tower of Judgment to open up the power of the "Line of Defense" to them, because there is no guarantee that they will not use it indiscriminately.
Because there is no guarantee.
So I simply don’t believe in any possibility.
…
Get up early in the morning and go to the temple...
I finally felt relieved after burning incense today.
