Thinking about it, he quickly stepped into the room.
As soon as he put half of his head in, a cold light flashed from the left side and hit his throat. He saw his face reflected on the blade.
He subconsciously stepped back to avoid the opponent's attack. At the same time, he saw the knife wielder clearly. The chill in his eyes was getting thicker. He had a very familiar look in his eyes, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it before.
A long object appeared out of thin air in the man's hand, with an inverted half-cone shape on it. He felt uneasy for no reason, and immediately turned around and fled into the corridor.
His peripheral vision suddenly brightened, and his shadow was reflected on the walls on both sides. Calls and footsteps came from behind, "There is a thief! Everyone, get up and catch the thief!"
Taking three steps and two steps, he soon came downstairs, rushed into the rain, and disappeared into the night.
…
"Oh my God! That damn thief!"
"This is a disaster, my home is a mess!"
"Is that thief a starving man? All the food in my house is gone!"
"The food I stored is also gone!"
"How can we deal with flooding now?"
…
"what happened?"
In the bright living room, three people sat together.
Listening to the commotion around him, Lotta was shocked. He couldn't imagine that someone would steal all the food in the tavern.
Lotta had seen a lot of outrageous things, but this was the first time she had seen such an outrageous thing.
With such strength, why would you choose to be a thief? He has no future and no reputation.
Jiang Yingbai leaned back and sank into the sofa.
"It's probably a big test."
Lotta didn't know why and asked, "What test?"
Jiang Yingbai closed his eyes, "People's hearts."
She didn't believe in coincidences, especially when there were enemies nearby.
Enclosed spaces, natural disasters, and food shortages all test people’s hearts, right?
Jiang Yingbai was thinking about what the other party was going to do.
The world is in danger, and only Xia can save the world, but Xia has no memory.
Unlike before, she had seen the harmonious and loving side of the world, was bound to humans, and could not stand the suffering of humans, so in the past she would give everything to protect humans.
Now, as she advances step by step, she has not seen the beautiful side of human beings. She is only disgusted or on the verge of death. It is easy for her to give up on human beings and be beautiful alone.
Especially with Jiang Yingbai by her side, Jiang Yingbai's guidance almost determines Xia's future choices.
Lopra couldn't let Xia give up on human beings, so he did not hesitate to use a lot of resources to do this.
So, what can he do to succeed in moral kidnapping?
The human heart is the most unpredictable thing. No one knows whether plum blossoms or dodder will grow in desperate situations.
Jiang Yingbai looked at Xia. Xia was playing with the windmill toy he bought before, looking very happy.
Lotta looked at her. He was very nervous. He had lived in a slum since he was a child. He had seen too many disgusting faces of human beings, and he was beaten to death for a little benefit.
What frightened him even more was that he was one of them, and he had to do that in order to survive.
Jiang Yingbai gathered the mineral water and said, "Don't worry, we won't be short of food."
No one would starve to death, but the three of them would not starve to death. The most important thing in her backpack was food.
Lotta's head was dizzy and confused with panic, and she subconsciously asked, "What about the flood?"
Jiang Yingbai unscrewed the bottle cap and took a sip.
"Let Kasumi open a protective cover, the ground, or a ball shape will do."
Lotta imagined for a moment, three people crowded in the ball, floating on the water, it was quite picturesque, and he pondered for a moment, "This seems to work."
Jiang Yingbai yawned. After staying up for nearly a night, she urgently needed a rest. She walked into the room and said, "I'll take a nap first. Call me if you need anything."
Lotta nodded solemnly, "Okay."
…
I don't know how long it took, but there was silence all around.
Jiang Yingbai took a breath, and there was no smell of moisture and earth unique to rain. There was nothing in the air.
When he opened his eyes, there were different shades of black between the sky and the earth. The surroundings were like flowing black ink, and everything was rolling and squirming.
A strange premonition came to mind, and Jiang Yingbai turned around. In the distance, she could vaguely see a person sitting on the ground with his back to her.
His back was straight, and something was suspended directly in front of him. A faint light appeared at the corner, which flickered on and off. It was difficult to see clearly from too far away.
Jiang Yingbai was a little curious and walked not far behind him, about four steps away. The squirming black around them gradually thickened, like a bottomless abyss, and gradually solidified, turning into a black wall to surround them.
At the same time, she saw clearly what was in front of him. It was a screen floating in the air, completely blank. "What's your name?"
Jiang Yingbai was stunned as soon as the words came out. She couldn't believe that those were her words. She only wanted to take a look and had no intention of speaking.
He turned around, revealing a pair of red pupils. There was a circular totem inside. There were written circles in the totem. It was unclear whether they were words, symbols, or graffiti, glowing with white light.
"I don't have a name."
Black hair, thin, fair, probably no more than sixteen years old, he is a teenager.
Jiang Yingbai spoke uncontrollably again, "What can I call you?"
He turned back to look at the screen, his eyes kept moving, as if there were many things on it, "Experimental Subject No. 8916043."
She asked, "Why don't you have a name?"
His voice was flat and cold, like a pool of stagnant water, "I'm not qualified to give you a name."
Jiang Yingbai was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to say. After a long time, she asked, "What are you doing?"
His pupils were fixed somewhere, as if he was observing something, "Playing games."
"what game?"
"A business simulation game."
"Can you be more specific?"
His voice became colder and colder, as if he was angry. I don't know if it was because of Jiang Yingbai or the game. "You will get a piece of land randomly at the beginning, and you can manage it how you want."
"Is there anything on the land?"
"No."
"Then how do you run it?"
He looked left and then right, "Use money to go to the store and buy it. There is everything in the store."
"Is there a sea too?"
"have."
"Where's the sky?"
"have."
Jiang Yingbai thought for a while and asked, "Where are the people?"
"have."
"Have you ever bought the sea?"
"Bought it."
Jiang Yingbai took a step forward and got closer to the screen, which was filled with white flowers. "It's great. I want to see the sea too."
He moved several steps to the side to distance himself from her, his eyes darkened, and he did not hide his disgust for her.
Jiang Yingbai didn't care. He came to him in two steps and stared into his eyes. "Does this game have a main plot?"
She saw mountains and white clouds in his eyes.
"have."
Under the mountain is a vast and boundless world, with wild flowers swaying in the wind, weeds hiding among them, small animals passing by, and birds flying in the sky.
The screen kept moving, as if he was looking for something, Jiang Yingbai asked, "What is the final main line?"
"Create a complete world, a world that can run autonomously."
