The hanging city?
Looking at the movable panel, Gu Mian immediately thought of the conversation between the two salesmen just now.
Goose Village, where the headquarters of the Toy Goose Food Processing Factory is located, is upside down. When I talked to Game City Store Manager Jin a few days ago, he told similar things. The City of Joy in Paradise World is also upside down.
The name of the event "Hanging City" seems to be somewhat similar to the situation mentioned by Manager Jin and others.
Gu Mian continued to look at the activity panel on the homepage.
[Special Event 'The Hanging City is Coming to Earth]
[Start time: December 1st]
It’s November 21st, and this event will come in ten days.
But Gu Mian was keenly aware that this activity did not indicate an end time.
This is a bit strange. Previous large-scale events had a beginning and an end, but this event only has a start time and no end time.
The event preview below is also quite strange.
[Preview: This is a harbor without storms and the last refuge of mankind. After December 1st, the first batch of "upside-down cities" will come to the earth. "The "upside-down cities" will exist forever, and everyone is welcome to move in]
Gu Mian grasped several key points.
"First Batch" "Eternal Existence"
In other words, there will be a second and third batch later, and those "upside-down cities" will remain forever and will not disappear.
"Doctor, this Hanging City event looks so similar to me...like the situation that store manager Jin mentioned when we called him that day." The fat man hurried over from the beauty area.
It does look like.
But store manager Jin said it was a curse from the earth.
Gu Mian originally thought that the earth was trying to become stronger and was going to madly curse the game world.
Unexpectedly, this curse spread to the real world.
However, looking at the event trailer, this hanging city does not look like a curse, but makes people yearn for it.
The fat man next to him has already begun to yearn for it: "A harbor without storms, the last refuge of mankind. It sounds very good, and there is no danger anywhere."
Very good indeed.
"But if the upside-down city is really a paradise, why does the earth put so many upside-down cities in the game world? Is it to confuse the enemy with sugar-coated bullets?" Fatty didn't quite understand, but soon he decided not to embarrass himself anymore. ’s IQ, and turned his attention to the problem at hand.
"Doctor, do you think these are chin prostheses?" The fat man showed Gu Mian the thing in his hand, which he had found out from the beauty section with great difficulty.
Gu Mian looked at the hair pads and eye masks in the fat man's hands and fell silent.
The fat man went to the stationery area to look for it again. Although he didn't understand the connection between stationery and prostheses, there must be a reason for the fat man to do this.
Until the three of them left the supermarket, Fatty couldn't find the chin prosthesis he wanted in the stationery section.
Instead, I found a pile of unopened red envelopes.
"The red envelope you gave me doctor last year was too simple. This year I specially bought a new pile with patterns painted on it with gold powder..." The fat man happily showed off the red envelope cover he bought to Gu Mian.
In other words, Fatty would use game coins to buy some random things. The humble game console that Xiaohong bought last time was also bought by Fatty.
In this current environment, other players may have a hard time eating, but Fatty is happy to buy this and that.
How do you say that?
It seems like "the wine and meat in the rich family stink, and the roads freeze to death"
No, there is a frozen corpse wandering not far from the supermarket door - not dead yet.
It was a man in his thirties or forties. The beard on his face had not been shaved for who knows how long. There were several layers of what seemed to be plastic sheets tied on his head to serve as a hat. He had a dirty scarf around his neck and no clothes on his body. How clean is it? I probably haven’t changed clothes in a long time.
Chu Changge also saw that person, and his eyes stopped on him for several seconds.
since death
After the death protection mechanism was turned off, they saw fewer and fewer living people in the real world.
When the game first started, there were still many lights on in the city at night.
As time went by, those lights went out one by one.
Now their apartment is almost the only one in the neighborhood that lights up at night.
At this time, the fat man also saw the other side. He stopped waving the red envelope in his hand and said, "Doctor, don't you think that person looks familiar?"
look familiar?
Gu Mian took another serious look at the middle-aged man. He was not Renleshan, nor was he Old Liu of Shengli Hardware.
But after Fatty said this, he did feel that this person looked familiar.
Soon Gu Mian found the corresponding face in her memory: "Mingming?"
"That's right, that's right," the fat man said quickly, "His name is hard to remember. Doctor, I just remembered it after you said that. He seemed to be called a bright but not dazzling man."
I also have a girlfriend whose nickname is "Charming but unassuming woman"
These two people met them in the dungeon of Horror Mountain Villa. Gu Mian affectionately called them "Ming Liang" and "Xiao Zhang"
But now Xiao Zhang has gone somewhere, and Mingliang has changed. Gu Mian can hardly recognize him.
Noticing that someone was looking at him, Mingliang carefully turned his head to look in the direction of his gaze, and then saw three figures standing at the door of the supermarket.
He was stunned for several seconds before he spoke with some uncertainty: "Are you...the three from the Villa of Horror?"
He recognized Gu Mian and the other three, but he wasn't sure.
"Yes." The fat man took a step forward to ask why he was here, but when Mingliang saw the fat man moving forward, he immediately jumped back and ran away without looking back.
The fat man was a little confused: "What's wrong, am I scary?"
And he remembered that Mingliang was not like this before. In the dungeon of Horror Hill, he was a bit of a coquettish and expressive person, and you could guess a bit of his personality just by looking at his nickname.
Now it has completely changed, like a frightened bird.
Chu Changge on the side said quietly: "People can change."
After finishing speaking, he paused for a moment before continuing: "He has become more adapted to the world."
Caution and vigilance are the basic rules for survival in today's world.
The fat man didn't seem to understand, and looked silently at the direction in which Mingliang was escaping.
It was about to rain, and the gloomy weather made his chest feel a little tight.
"Doctor, let's go back quickly." The fat man carried the things he bought and walked towards the apartment without saying much the whole way.
Gu Mian found that Fatty was a little sentimental these days.
From time to time, he would surround Gu Mian and ask, "Doctor, do you think this global game will end?" "If the game world disappears, where will Brother Chu and the others go?"
When he didn't ask questions, he spent most of the time sitting downstairs in the yard with a gloomy look on his face. He didn't know what he was thinking. Even when a goose took the opportunity to poop on his clothes, he remained indifferent.
007, who had been busy for a month during this period, seemed to have accepted the reality and finally stopped looking for Renle Mountain.
007, who gave up searching for Renle Mountain, was not in a high mood and would be lost in thought in the yard from time to time.
So Gu Mian often saw two people with depressed expressions sitting in rows below, and he felt that if this continued, this place would become a depression asylum.
He discussed with Chu Changge that he wanted to do something to stop the two of them from being so depressed. Chu Changge thought for a long time, and finally pulled out the disc Black Cat Sheriff at the bottom of the box and invited the two of them to watch it together.
Gu Mian looked at Chu Changge, who was playing the disc with an expressionless expression, and felt a little depressed.
December 1st is coming soon, and this is the day when the "Hanging City" event comes to the earth.
There are also new changes on the home page’s events page.
[Special event 'The Hanging City is now open]
[Introduction: Are you still worried about food shortage? Are you still worried about the cold winter coming? The first batch of upside-down cities have been randomly put into the real world. If you stay in the upside-down cities, you no longer have to worry about your livelihood.
, you will no longer have trouble falling asleep due to the cold. Happy life is in the hanging city! 】
Wait a moment.
Who wrote this copy, and why does it look like a real estate advertisement?
"It's really like a shelter from the wind." The fat man's voice came from the side. Gu Mian turned to look at him. He was attracted by the activity and was about to become depressed now that he couldn't remember it.
"Similar to the trailer, there is no mention of any danger," Fatty looked at the event page carefully, "Is this really a shelter created by the earth for humans?"
The first batch of hanging cities were randomly dropped into the real world.
Gu Mian came to the window and looked out.
There was no change in the surroundings, no sign of the hanging city.
It seems that this thing has not been released to them yet.
Although the event introduction extolled the Upside Down City, Gu Mian intuitively felt that such a good thing would not happen in the world.
Wang Po also knows how to sell melons and boast about herself. Gu Mian can't judge how much self-promotion is in this introduction.
He turned to look at Chu Changge.
Chu Changge also looked at Gu Mian: "If you have a chance, you can go and see the upside-down city in Paradise World."
