Chapter 102 Fuquan Village Ruins
The external environment after walking out of the Nightmare Forest is as gloomy and depressing as the forest, completely different from the bright sunshine in Fuquan Village.
The most concerning thing is that it is eerily silent here.
While clearly walking in the mountains and fields, I couldn't hear a single insect chirping, and couldn't see a single flying bird. It was as if all animals had been completely extinct.
The existing trees and weeds are dim in color and motionless, like layers of rough game textures or static paintings, lifeless.
But as Bai Ming walked, the surrounding terrain became more and more familiar.
It takes tens of thousands of years to change mountains, rivers, lakes and seas, but human beings have extremely powerful ability to transform nature. It is not an empty lie to cut down mountains, destroy temples, and move mountains to fill seas.
Even so, he could still vaguely recognize that the outline of this area seemed to be very similar to the path he remembered to the real-life Fuquan Village that had been submerged by mudslides.
So?
Bai Ming carefully reviewed the terrain comparison again.
If his memory is correct, then the geographical location of Fuquan Village in this copy exactly corresponds to the buried village in the real world.
【Dongyun Research Institute】seemed to be aware of Bai Ming's abnormality and cast an expectant gaze.
Bai Ming said in a deep voice: "What is the relationship between the real world and the copy world? Why is there such a profound connection?
If my prediction is correct, the place you are taking me to now is exactly the direction of Fuquan Village in the real world that has been submerged by mudslides. "
【Dongyun Research Institute" said: "Maybe it's a parallel world, maybe it's the reflection in the mirror, or it can be said that ■
..
The key part has been blocked again.
Bai Ming asked: "You must be here too. An investigation has been conducted on the Fuquan Village ruins in the real world. Do you know a little girl named Sisi? [Dongyun Research Institute] was confused: "Sisi? Who is that?" Bai Ming said: "It is the image of a little girl who invites people to play hide and seek at dusk."
[Dongyun Research Institute] categorically denied: "No! The child ghost that troubled the local area did not have a fixed image, or even a name! This only means that Bai Ming was thoughtful: "I probably understand that the copy of the game is affecting reality, right?"
"Sisi is just a node that was specially shaped and used to erode reality."
"No, maybe Sisi is not being eroded. , but some information in the real world has flowed into and changed the game copy, causing the copy to mutate. "
"And this change only happened after you entered. With the style of an anti-human organization like [Void], they probably won't have any psychological burden in dragging reality into the game copy, right?"
"So, this is what [Void] is doing?"
A look of admiration appeared on the face of [Dongyun Research Institute]: "Captain [Wutian] is really wise and brave, with amazing insight."
Bai Ming understood that his speculation was indeed true.
It’s so damned!
When he thought that thousands of people in the real world might die inexplicably because of the crazy idea of [Void], an uncontrollable anger arose in his heart.
"Hurry up and lead the way."
Bai Ming's voice became cold: "I can hardly restrain myself. This organization [Void] must be completely exterminated."
[Dongyun Research Institute] solemnly said: "That is natural, otherwise we would not be ordered to enter here."
"By the way, Captain Wutian, where are the [Void] players who stayed outside?" Bai Ming said: "They should have evacuated. These players are very mobile and do not take ordinary roads. They specialize in picking off small people in the mountains and wild areas. It’s difficult to track and capture them because of the long distance and over the mountains.”
[Dongyun Research Institute] sighed: “Then we’ll have to kill them next time.”
When we arrived at the real Fuquan Village ruins.
There is indeed a Fuquan Village site here, but it is different from the cleaned site outside.
This place seems to have just suffered a disaster. The traces of the debris flow are still fresh and visible. Collapsed houses, broken beams, solidified mud mixed with gravel, forming a mess.
On the sores of this disaster, many figures are wandering. Their bodies are in a translucent state, their clothes are stained with dried mud spots and dark red stains, their faces are distorted and blurred, and they are wandering silently on this land with the painful expression of a breathless person.
As soon as these ghost villagers discovered Bai Ming and [Dongyun Research Institute], they immediately turned around like hungry wolves that smelled anger, and rushed towards them with a twisted and stiff posture.
Before the ghost group could get closer, [Dongyun Research Institute], who was originally leading the way, quickly stepped aside to get out of the way and protected Bai Ming in front of him without hesitation.
Bai Ming: "?"
Okay, Bai Ming doesn't care either.
Each person performs his own duties and has a clear division of labor. His current task is to clear these obstacles.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Bai Ming is like a tiger among sheep, and every swing of [Long Stick Type 1] is precise and efficient.
Although these villager ghosts are far less powerful individually than the knock-knockers, each one only has the strength of three Teacher Wangs, which is roughly equivalent to the "Wandering" in "Midnight Library".
Especially their large number, enough to make ordinary level 10 players have a hard time fighting.
However, for Bai Ming, cleaning them was extremely easy. Wherever the shadow of the stick touched, the ghosts fell to the ground like bubbles that had been popped.
What is even more bizarre is that after these villagers were killed, they did not resurrect like the ghosts in previous copies, nor did they launch an endless siege.
They were completely wiped out in this way.
After quickly clearing out all the villagers, [Dongyun Research Institute] praised: "As expected of the captain's boyfriend, his strength is indeed not inferior to the captain."
Bai Ming frowned: "Don't say such nonsense, wait a moment [Sugar Frost] He would be unhappy after hearing this."
[Dongyun Research Institute] smiled and said, "I think the captain will be very happy."
Before Bai Ming could say anything else, he turned around and ran towards the center of the village.
Bai Ming quickly followed and soon arrived at an ancient well in the center of the village.
This well is the only water source for the entire village. Miraculously, it has not been damaged by the mudslide at all and is extremely well-preserved.
The stone railing at the entrance of the well is smooth, and the crystal clear well water ripples in the well, exuding an indescribable pure luster.
What's even more strange is that these well waters exerted an inexplicable and strong attraction to Bai Ming, originating from physical instinct. It was as if a traveler who had been thirsty for several days saw a clear spring, and every cell was eager to contact and even merge into the cold well water.
[Dongyun Research Institute] pointed to the mouth of the well and solemnly said: "Captain [Wutian], I'd like you to go in. Below, you will find another crucial piece of the puzzle."
