She knew about the dead city.
Five years before she went online, there was an earthquake in the city.
All the residents were forcibly moved out. After that, the small city was placed under martial law.
What happened to the dead city after she went online, It didn’t seem to be developing in a good direction.
What made her feet shiver was that when she entered the copy half a year ago, the city she was in was thousands of miles away from the dead city.
‘I clearly entered the copy from another place. Could it be because of a bug?’
She guessed in her heart.
Li Gushu noticed that her expression was strange and asked: “What’s wrong?”
Bai Qiuye shook her head: “Nothing.”
Li Gushu said: “Since there’s nothing, let’s leave first. Otherwise, those ghosts might appear again—”
Li Gushu suddenly felt that something was wrong.
The ghosts in the dead city came from ‘Purgatory’. They were restricted by some kind of law and could only move around the dead city.
Among them, the lowest level was the same as her.
As for the higher-level ghosts, according to the top few people on the leaderboard, most of them would gather in the center of the city.
Li Gushu still remembered a warning from one of the great gods— Don’t encounter them, don’t challenge them, run away immediately.
Li Gushu’s eyes lost focus for a moment.
How did she fall unconscious at that time?
She remembered that when she picked up the job advertisement, she felt like she was cursed.
Before she fell unconscious, she seemed to have seen many hands reaching out from the darkness.
Just when she thought she was going to die, she saw a glowing door in the center of the city.
A person walked out from it.
Li Gushu’s eyelids twitched: “Did you see a person in the city just now?”
Bai Qiuye was thinking about the ghosts she mentioned. She was shocked: “A person? What kind of person? I’m already very lucky to have met you. ”
Li Gushu frowned slightly. Could it be that she was hallucinating because she wanted to live too much?
“By the way, can we leave quickly?” Bai Qiuye wasn’t that afraid, but Li Gushu’s words made her shiver.
Li Gushu said: “You can’t drive here. My car is parked outside the city. Once you get in, you’ll be safe.”
Bai Qiuye sighed in relief: “I thought we would have to walk all the way to the Bi Fang District.”
She had checked the forums.
After going online, people gathered there to trade, buy food, and recharge their terminals.
Therefore, for the sake of convenience, many people simply chose to live around the resettlement areas. As a result, resettlement areas appeared one after another.
Her home was in Yue City, and the nearest resettlement area was the Bi Fang District.
Li Gushu was surprised: “You live in the Bi Fang District?”
Bai Qiuye was a little nervous about Li Gushu’s attitude. “What’s wrong?”
Li Gushu said, “Me too.”
She discreetly sized up Bai Qiuye.
Bai Qiuye’s hair was wet from the rain, sticking to the side of her perfect face. Water droplets dripped from her chin to her collarbone. It was unclear whether it was rainwater or tears at the corners of her eyes, but she looked like a broken pear blossom in the rain.
Li Gushu went through the names of the top 200 players in her mind.
Other than a few eccentric characters who only wore masks and didn’t like to use cameras, the others didn’t match Bai Qiuye at all.
She was certain that anyone who could safely navigate the Dead City would not be ranked above 200.
In her eyes, Bai Qiuye’s frightened behavior was just an act.
‘Since she wants to act, it’s not like I can’t accompany her.’ Li Gushu thought.
She had seen a lot of freaks who had this kind of desire to act. For example, Situ Liao who was ranked 50th. He was even more famous than Smiling Tiger because of his other nickname “Movie Emperor”.
Li Gushu drew an equal sign between Bai Qiuye and Situ Liao in his mind.
While talking, the two of them had already left the dead city.
The rain stopped, the city that was swallowed by darkness was dead silent.
Li Gushu looked at the time on the terminal: “It’s almost midnight, do you have enough survival coupons?”
Bai Qiuye suddenly remembered what she was told after the 09 update.
After going online, every night at midnight, the survival coupons balance in the account would be automatically deducted.
The number of coupons deducted was 5.
If the current level was lower than the average level, every 5 levels less would result in an extra voucher being deducted.
Currently, everyone’s average level was level 25.
Bai Qiuye’s expression suddenly changed.
Every night, she actually had to deduct 10 survival coupons.
There was another rule that made her even more fearful.
If the interval between her two copies was more than 10 days.
Then starting from the 11th day, every day after that, another 5 survival coupons would be deducted.
Bai Qiuye cursed in her heart.
Dogs are really better than the lord god, he can even steal money better than her!
Li Gushu’s car was parked not far away. After the two of them got in, she checked the car: “If you’re tired, you can sleep first. It’ll take another two hours to get to Bi Fang.”
Bai Qiuye hadn’t rested since coming out of the copy, so she was already very tired.
After experiencing the pain of losing money, she was extremely tired.
When Li Gushu said that, she immediately yawned.
But she didn’t dare to let herself lose consciousness in front of a stranger, no matter how reliable Li Gushu looked.
Bai Qiuye: “No need, no need, you’ll also be affected if I sleep next to you.”
Li Gushu grunted and didn’t say anything else. She reached out and turned on the music.
“An ordinary day,
Woke up to earn money,
Drank a cup of soy milk,
Lost a bit of fritter.
When can I return to the past. ”
There were no lights on the road, the car’s headlights illuminated the mottled billboards. Dried branches fell on the road that had lost its maintenance, the car squeaked as it passed.
Bai Qiuye sat to the side, her eyes slightly moist.
She had been alone for thirteen years. She hadn’t experienced the feeling of knowing where the end of the journey was and having someone accompany her for a long time.
Even if Li Gushu was a stranger.
But at this moment, she felt a sense of peace that she hadn’t felt in a long time.
Two hours later, Bi Fang’s resettlement area appeared in front of Bai Qiuye.
Because they were all temporary houses, the drainage system and other pipes were exposed. It looked like the surface of the ground had lost the protection of the skin, exposing the protruding blood vessels.
Li Gushu drove the car directly in. Bai Qiuye realized that this was a town that she had been to before.
Bai Qiuye vaguely remembered that this used to be a resort town that was warm in winter and cool in summer. Many of her parents’ friends had bought property here.
However, this town had been completely transformed. Not only did it expand outwards, but there were also two glass-roofed bird nest-like buildings in the center of the town.
Li Gushu asked, “Where do you live?”
Bai Qiuye said, “I actually don’t live here. In other words, I don’t have a place to live.”
“You’re from a different server?” Li Gushu didn’t find it strange. Because copies often appeared in a certain area according to type, it was normal for people to change districts and find a copythat was suitable for them.
Li Gushu said, “How about this, you cam stay at my place for the next few days.”
Bai Qiuye was surprised. “That’s not very good. It’s too troublesome.”
She originally wanted to ask Li Gushu if there was any place where she could get a temporary house.
Li Gushu said, “We’ve already formed a team. It’s easier to gather together if we live together. By the way, don’t casually enter the copy for the next few days. Do you have a suitable candidate for the third teammate? ”
Bai Qiuye: “No.”
She had just left the copy and lost contact with all her acquaintances. How could she find a suitable candidate?
Li Gushu nodded. “Then I’ll see what I can do.”
Bai Qiuye listlessly grunted.
Thinking of the copy of the night watchman, she suddenly had a headache.
Just now in the car, she carefully read the newspaper again.
The copy’s level column showed that it was unknown.
The unknown was the most terrifying because no one knew the level of the monsters and bosses inside.
09 said that the level of the ghosts in a normal copy would fluctuate by 1 to 2 levels according to the copy’s level.
The bosses would usually be 5 to 10 levels higher than the copy’s level.
Bai Qiuye was worried that the copy’s level would be too high. She thought about it and realized that no matter what the copy’s level was, she would only be level 1.
Even if she was armed to the teeth, she would only be cannon fodder in the copy.
Bai Qiuye wanted to stall for time and put her plan to enter this copy at the end.
She felt that she would at least have a chance to survive until she reached level 35.
However, the bright red countdown above her and Li Gushu’s heads indicated that after 5 days, if she didn’t apply on time, the hourglass would be replaced with her blood.
After parting ways with Bai Qiuye, Liu He and the other two survived the copy’s collapse.
After coming out, he found that he was the only one nearby.
The others seemed to have been sent to various locations because of the copy’s collapse.
Liu He opened his terminal, but he didn’t open it the normal way. Instead, he opened another software.
Other software couldn’t be used normally. But the moment he opened it, the terminal’s screen was indeed disturbed. Obvious circuit patterns appeared.
Liu He ignored this phenomenon and made a call.
While waiting for the other party to pick up, his eyes gradually filled with respect.
After a moment, a clean and low voice sounded from the other end. It carried the current caused by the signal being disturbed.
“Are you free?”
“I’m back, boss.”
“So?”
“Boss, there was indeed a problem with that copy. I investigated it when I was alone. No matter if it was the boss or an npc, their levels were definitely much higher than what the system said. ”
“Oh.”
“I almost died in there, and you’re actually indifferent?!” Liu He yelled, “Are you even human? You heartless capitalist, exploiting your employees, □□□□!”
“You’re noisy.” The other party simply replied.
“Next time, just make me dumb. I can’t control my mouth anyway.” Liu He paused. “By the way, I met a level 1 newbie in the copy, but she seems to have some connection with that copy.”
“You know her?”
“Yes, it’s that Bai Qiuye. She was the one who made the server announcement—”
“Her name is not Bai Qiuye.” The voice on the other side suddenly became playful.
“Huh?” Liu He opened his mouth and froze.
Boss actually said five words?!
He actually didn’t say three words to him.
“I’ll hang up first.”
“Wait! Boss, are you going to enter a copy soon?”
A busy signal came from the other side. Liu He wanted to cry but had no tears. He turned off the terminal.
“If Bai Qiuye isn’t called Bai Qiuye, what else can she be called?” He opened the forum in confusion and searched.
As soon as he refreshed, he found more than a hundred similar posts. When he clicked on each one, the discussion was in full swing.
[Shocking! A level 30 copy was actually cleared by a level 1 newbie!]
[Analysis post: A newcomer with a mysterious identity. Who’s the big boss behind her?]
[Newcomer’s first live broadcast, suspected to be in purgatory.]
[She only turned on her live broadcast for one minute.]
All the discussions pointed to one person— Bai Qiuye.
