MTL - Weird Deep-sea Game, I Can Fish Without Limit-Chapter 269 Trigger a new task, Li Feng's memory
Chapter 269 triggers a new task, Li Feng's memory
‘Self-enclosed, sensitive and suspicious, not suitable for participating in collective tasks. '
Huang Yanyan remembered clearly that this was a psychologist at the headquarters of the research institute, who gave an analysis of No. 67's personality based on a series of behaviors.
October 7th, the thirteenth game cycle, the endless sea world.
In the busy and lively dock area of Wind's Rest, Huang Yanyan's eyes were empty, thinking of other things in her mind, she walked along the road near the sea to the school in a lethargic manner.
On her left is the endless sea. The afternoon sun streams down, and the sea is covered with broken gold.
At the beginning of the last cycle, the research institute hired a portrait artist to paint a portrait of No. 67, but for some reason, after seeing Rhine, who was Qi Heng of No. 67, his memory of No. 67's appearance was suddenly erased.
When this happened, the entire research institute was shocked.
After doing various checks on Qi Heng and confirming that Qi Heng did not do it on purpose, needless to say, the research institute also understood that it must be No. 67 who modified Qi Heng's memory.
"A high-level player can do this!"
"Can detect someone looking for him again, can modify the memory of the person looking for him, what is the difference between this and the ability of a god?"
"This ability is too powerful, but also too dangerous."
Huang Yanyan remembered that during the video conference at that time, the high-level executives of the research institute argued for a long time.
They were very scruples about No. 67's ability, especially at that time, No. 67 made it clear that he didn't intend to cooperate.
Do not want to cooperate, and have the ability to not be found in a modern society with advanced technology. So far, the research institute has no way to get No. 67.
Seeing this kind of result, someone at the high-level meeting began to blame, why didn't he write to No. 67 in advance, and went directly to the portrait artist, which caused the relationship between No. 67 and the research institute to become rigid.
Huang Yanyan also felt this way at the time, comparing the two replies she received before and after...
"Ugh-"
Huang Yanyan sighed.
On the night of October 1st last cycle, when all players received the task of stopping X, No. 67 wrote to her, saying "It's okay, I have a solution".
This sentence is very gentle, even comforting.
Girls have a delicate mind, Huang Yanyan felt very heartwarming at the time, not only because 67 had a way to deal with X, but also because their relationship became friendly.
Things were originally developing in a positive direction, but because of the portrait, Huang Yanyan wrote a letter privately to report to No. 67 in advance.
Soon, the reply she received was just the content of the reply. Huang Yanyan was sensitive to the fact that this letter was different from the previous one.
"I see, thanks."
Now, 67 has returned to its original cool and written language.
Can't tell what it feels like, looking at these words, Huang Yanyan is very disappointed, and she also has an uncomfortable feeling of being caught between the research institute and No. 67.
‘No. 67 must be angry. '
Huang Yanyan thinks this way, after all, if he finds out that someone is secretly investigating him, no matter who he is, he will feel uncomfortable.
Time passed day by day.
After that, during the remaining few days of the last cycle, Huang Yanyan thought about writing to No. 67 many times after work to explain what happened that day.
But she also heard from the psychological experts at the headquarters that it is best to give number 67 more time and space at this time, so as not to deepen the misunderstanding due to his sensitive and suspicious character.
At this point, even though Huang Yanyan is in a complicated mood and still has a lot of helplessness, the matter of contacting and explaining to No. 67 can only be shelved.
At the same time, during that time, a lot of work in the research institute was not going well.
They tried their best to reach new star players, but the reality was that they failed time and time again.
Until last night.
After many days of no contact, Huang Yanyan received the letter from No. 67 again.
At that time, Huang Yanyan was staying at home bored, thinking about all kinds of troubles at work.
At this moment, sparks burst out from the Fire Seal Orb, and a letter was spit out.
Looking at the letter that fell on the table, Huang Yanyan thought it was Qi Heng.
He took the letter mechanically, but when the common language of the endless sea on the envelope came into his eyes, Huang Yanyan sat up straight suddenly.
It was actually a letter from 67, and he actually sent the letter first.
With her heart beating slightly faster, Huang Yanyan opened the letter with faint anticipation.
But it was different from all her expectations. No. 67 did not mention the matter of being investigated before. His letter was very short, only one sentence:
"I sent you something, you might need it."
'I need? '
Reading this line, Huang Yanyan was dumbfounded.
She didn't know what the 67th sent was, but she knew that after the portrait incident, the first letter sent from 67th didn't mention that incident at all.
'Did he not take it to heart? '
Inexplicably, Huang Yanyan's mind appeared again, the scene of the high-level executives of the research institute arguing over this matter.
At that time, those big shots were arguing over No. 67. Some were accountable, some were shirking responsibility, and some were worried about the consequences of a rigid relationship.
After this incident, the research institute began to be cautious when dealing with issues related to No. 67, for fear of worsening concerns.
But looking at it now, could it be that No. 67 just laughed off the things that made the high-level executives restless and worried, and didn't deserve his attention at all?
While Huang Yanyan was thinking wildly, her maid knocked on the door.
The maid said that a newsboy with a suitcase came to the door, and insisted that she wanted to see her, and she was unwilling to leave if she didn't see her.
The guard at home felt that the newsboy was suspicious, and was about to drive him away or throw him to the police station, but the housekeeper felt that since the master was not at home, he still had to inform the young lady.
'Newsboy with a suitcase...'
Huang Yanyan understood instantly.
Without further ado, she immediately went to see the newsboy.
But as usual, Huang Yanyan did not ask who asked him to deliver the box, nor did he ask about the appearance and characteristics of the person who asked to deliver the box.
She just gave the paper boy some money and took the box.
It was an unremarkable and bulky wooden box.
Backing to the room, Huang Yanyan didn't think too much, and directly tore off the seal and opened the box. Inside the box were three things of different sizes that were tightly wrapped in newspapers.
The newspapers were peeled off layer by layer. After a while, when Huang Yanyan peeled off the newspapers and saw the three things in the box thoroughly, she was stunned.
X's mourning bird, Huang Yanyan has seen this gun for unknown reasons.
The white spindle-shaped core of the earth has been upgraded to become an important item for second-level players. Huang Yanyan also saw it when X was showing off.
As for the last one, Huang Yanyan knew it after seeing the instructions on the wrapping paper. It turns out that this string of round stones is the world ladder for smuggling.
Looking at the three things in the box, Huang Yanyan subconsciously held her breath, and hadn't caught her breath for a long time.
These three things are too important, whether it is for the research institute or for any player.
But No. 67 was sent out just like that, wrapped in a few pieces of waste newspaper, packed in a wooden box, and asked a child to deliver it.
'This…'
Huang Yanyan's mood was fluctuating, but it was hard to explain why. She was not shocked that No. 67 had these things and gave them out at random.
After all, No. 67 is powerful, and he has already done things that other players cannot do.
Huang Yanyan felt that what really surprised her was No. 67's character.
It turns out that for a long time, he has actually been doing things according to his own wishes, and the various behaviors of the research institute have never affected him.
Girls have delicate thoughts, Huang Yanyan thinks back to the past.
From the very beginning, the research institute recruited many times, and later went to him directly, and then reminded him privately, the research institute's fear and worry...
It turned out that No. 67 never cared, or even paid attention to, no matter what situation he was in or how he was treated.
These things seemed to him never worth his attention.
Put the three items in the box into the system backpack and hide them one by one. Huang Yanyan couldn't tell how she felt.
The Research Institute thinks that No. 67 is offended, and I think that No. 67 is angry. Psychologists think that No. 67 is a self-enclosed, sensitive and suspicious person, but in fact...
People didn't care about it at all, and they have been pushing things forward according to their own wishes.
Huang Yanyan suddenly felt that, compared with No. 67, they were simply arrogant and carefree children, not on the same level at all.
The autumn sea breeze brought coolness. Walking on the busy pier, Huang Yanyan sighed again. It was useless to think too much. She returned to the present moment and looked at the busy people coming and going around her.
"Woo—"
Suddenly, a whistle sounded from a large ship at sea.
Subconsciously following the sound, it turned out that it was a steam ship full of passengers going out to sea. On the deck, the travelers who were about to go on a long journey were waving to the shore to see off people.
Seeing this very real scene, Huang Yanyan felt emotional:
‘If this is really just a game, then it should be a very interesting game.
The world here is so big, there's bound to be a lot to explore.
Unfortunately…'
Standing on the shore where people come and go, looking at the people who are seeing off relatives and friends, Huang Yanyan, who was thinking wildly, suddenly saw an acquaintance.
"What a coincidence, I was going to your school to find you."
On the shore, Li Feng met Huang Yanyan just as he sent Chenxing away.
"I was also going to find you, I heard that you are leaving Storm Island?"
Seeing Li Feng, Huang Yanyan feels somewhat guilty. She has too many things to do recently, so she ignores Li Feng who is also a player.
‘I want to leave Storm Island? When did this happen? '
Hearing Huang Yanyan say that he was leaving, Li Feng reviewed the previous summary and changed his identity.
‘That’s right, my current identity is a person from the Ring of the Earth.
Because of the death of the king and the transfer of personnel from the Ring of the Earth, the Kestrel and the superhumans from the White Maple Manor will be transferred to the Royal City.
In the morning, Kestrel and Benjamin invited themselves to get together, in fact, it was just for farewell. '
"Uh."
Li Feng was noncommittal, because he felt really complicated about not telling the truth to Huang Yanyan.
"If you can change to a civilian job, then switch to a civilian job. Stay away from danger. Although we can't quit the game, we still have to live well."
Letting the maid follow behind, Huang Yanyan and Li Feng walked slowly towards her school along the road by the sea.
"Uh-yes, the most important thing is to be alive."
Li Feng agrees with this point, but sometimes, if you don’t look for things, things will find you.
Recalling the mysterious people mentioned by the players in the chat channel just now, because they are related to the Discovery, Li Feng thought about it, and decided to ask Huang Yanyan.
"Oh those people—"
Because he believed in Li Feng, and because he worked in the Ring of the Earth, it would be better to know more, Huang Yanyan did not hide anything:
"You still remember Xinxing, those mysterious people are players who smuggled in from Xinxing, and they robbed Sun City's Glorious Vault.
As for what was stolen, Guanghui Island Governor's Mansion deliberately concealed it, so our people don't know. "
"New star? That's the..."
Hearing this name, Li Feng remembered the information about that world, but at the same time, a prompt popped up in his system:
【Trigger a new task: Investigate the items lost in the Brilliant Vault】
【Mission Description: A player who sneaked in from Nova planned to rob the Glory Vault in Sun City on Glory Island, and took away an item in the vault, trying to find a way to investigate the truth of the matter. 】
【Task Reward: Memory of ‘You’. 】
The text flashed line by line before my eyes, and finally appeared on the task interface of the system.
Li Feng was dumbfounded for a moment, and then...feeling being led away by the system again.
"Yes, it is the world where the technology is very advanced, but it will perish in two months."
Huang Yanyan thought Li Feng didn't remember, so she reminded him.
"Oh-"
Li Feng nodded, turned off the system interface, and thought of a possibility:
"Could it be that what the new star players robbed was something that could save their world?"
"It makes sense, after all, for the people of Nova, nothing is more important than saving the world."
Huang Yanyan nodded in agreement when she heard the words, but because of the matter related to the research institute and No. 67, she was in a really low mood, and she sighed subconsciously. Huang Yanyan changed the subject:
"Didn't you always tell me to quit? I really want to quit now if possible."
"Is...something happened?"
Hearing that Huang Yanyan wanted to resign, Li Feng almost felt as if the sun was coming out from the west.
"Uh-"
Just now I just unconsciously said what I thought in my heart. When I was really asked about the specific reasons, there were a lot of clues. Huang Yanyan didn't know where to start. After thinking about it, she just said:
"You see how real this world is. If you really have the opportunity to look around, it would be a good thing."
"That's true."
Li Feng agrees with this point:
“In a way, the endless sea is much more exciting than our world. There are many magical plants, animals, and islands of different cultures.”
"And the dragon, I saw the dragon that day."
Huang Yanyan added.
"Yeah, there are dragons, there are mermaids, there are..."
It was a pleasure to chat with Huang Yanyan and Li Feng.
But suddenly talking about dragons and mermaids, Li Feng subconsciously thought of Xi Ya and Xue Yu.
But at the same time, the strange knowledge he had just been taught by Chen Xing reappeared in his head, and Li Feng felt that he was not well.
"Yes? What's there? You don't mean to be a cat demon, do you?"
Chatting with Li Feng, Huang Yanyan temporarily forgot about those troubles, but when Li Feng stopped talking, he thought that he had thought of something that made him hard to say.
"Huh?"
Li Feng was at a loss, although what he thought of was really hard to say, but he swore he didn't think of the cat demon.
"Oh~"
After all, they grew up together, Li Feng likes to pet furry cats, Huang Yanyan knows it.
And now, with Huang Yanyan crossing her arms, she seemed to have seen through an old friend, as if I knew it all:
"Cats in this world can really become smart. Maybe if you raise a cat, she will become smart and become a cat girl one day. It's the kind that can move its ears and tail."
Li Feng: ...I am in trouble with the cat demon, right?
He complained in his heart, and the old Si Ji Chenxing's words subconsciously popped out again:
"Yeah, it will have both furry and smooth touch."
"Huh?! You!"
Hearing this, Huang Yanyan was startled, her voice raised a few degrees unconsciously, and she took a step closer to Li Feng with an inexplicable attitude of reluctance:
"What the **** did you do?"
"Er—no, I..."
It was an unconscious complaint just now, but Li Feng didn't expect that when he was relaxed, he would say it out of his mouth.
This is wronged, he only found out today that there is a race of cat demons:
"This, that... It's all from the books."
"On the book? You really read all kinds of books~"
Huang Yanyan squinted her eyes and glanced at Li Feng, and then looked distressed by the social atmosphere and swollen:
"Really, this world doesn't fight **** either."
"what?"
Hearing about Huang Yanyan's career in the police station, Li Feng, who was complaining about Chenxing, was amused.
However, just as he was about to say something, he suddenly found that there were fewer people on the road ahead.
Looking up subconsciously, Li Feng saw several rows of Storm's End knights standing in line at Huang Yanyan's school gate.
Standing in front of the knight was Shia in a luxurious dress. At this moment, she was looking at herself with a smile from a long distance away.
