Hearing Arnold's words, Lin Huaisheng was a little startled.
In a room that is constantly collapsing, there is a person who reaches out to you without hesitation, which is better than a thousand words of romance that just says nothing. If there really is Lin Huaisheng, a blind hostage who endured humiliation and was in danger, in this world, then Arnold saved him.
Another steel bar fell from the top of Arnold's head, and Arnold dodged on the ground. No matter how dangerous the situation was, he never gave up persuasion.
"Come on! Lin Huaisheng!"
The distance between them seemed to be getting farther and farther, which made Arnold anxious, but he didn't blame Lin Huaisheng for hesitating. The corners of his mouth were raised stiffly, imitating the more likable guy from Ethel.
"Don't be afraid, nothing will happen. Let's go out first. Then I will explain the real situation to the Federation and tell my superiors that Ethel and I have survived to this day because of you."
The fact is indeed the case , Arnold does not want Lin Huaisheng to pay so much for the whole but be misunderstood.
"The Federation will not let you down.
Neither will he.
Lin Huaisheng suddenly smiled. Instead of shaking Arnold's hand, he took a step back and retreated deeper into the danger.
Arnold opened his eyes wide: "Lin... ..."
Lin Huaisheng said softly, "Mr. Arnold, I can't go with you. "
Arnold didn't understand, and was even a little bit aggrieved and wronged. There was actually no special relationship between them, but when Arnold was rejected, he suddenly resonated with all the boys who were in love in adolescence. The person in front of him, just need to say In a word, his heart was overwhelmed, all the loss and resentment surged out, and he felt that he was the most unwelcome person in the world.
The barrel of the gun was pressed against the back of Arnold's head.
The kidnapper was calm and wrapped in paranoia and The sinister voice rang in Arnold's ear.
"Why didn't you listen to him? The lamb said, he doesn't want to go with you."
Arnold's whole body tensed up.
When did C come?
He was so focused on talking to Lin Huaisheng just now, coupled with the loud noise of the continuous collapse, he didn't notice at all. Arnold went to see Lin Huaisheng again, and saw Lin Huaisheng lowered his eyes, calm without sadness or joy, and seemed to hide the greatest sorrow. So is that why he can't go with himself?
Not a sense of justice, but infinite indignation. Arnold felt that this negative and strong emotion was constantly occupying and filling his body, controlling him, and driving him. Arnold looked at Lin Huaisheng in the dangerous ruins, looked at this lamb who seemed to be stuck in a quagmire, and watched him remain silent. It was obviously not his fault, but he felt guilty and repented. But it shouldn't be like this! Arnold remembered that he was a little bit gentle, a little bit playful and bad-looking. This kid was always pretending to be hurt, and then told them with a smile that he was pretending, but Arnold didn't want the last Lin Huaisheng he saw to be hurt. It has nothing to do with whether he is strong or not, or whether he needs to be protected.
Arnold gritted his teeth, and suddenly, he bent down quickly, avoiding Centipede's gun, and at the same time elbowed back, attacking Centipede's abdomen.
In terms of height, physical fitness and other aspects, Arnold and Centipede are comparable. Arnold is one of the best elites in the Federation and the youngest colonel in the Federation. He is only one gun away from Centipede at this moment. But Arnold's attack was not conservative at all. He fought with his back, and his desperate style of play was like a wild beast that would die with others. In the destructive captivity, Arnold has always been in the best state, but when the dawn of federal rescue came, he seemed to suddenly go crazy.
Just right. C is also a lunatic. The two lunatics fought to the death with the falling gravel and steel bars.
It's like a silent movie. The dangerous background is intended to exaggerate the conflict, and I hope this fight will be the grandest, and it will be unparalleled for a hundred years before and after, and it will be engraved on the top of the bloody love monument, so that no matter who wins, it will add value to the loved one . And the victims in the process, such as the bloody corpses on the ground, no one cared at all.
Lin Huaisheng was also avoiding these falling rocks. The Federation's offensive deterrence is greater than its power. It hopes to force the kidnappers to surrender. Therefore, only the first round of heavy thermal weapons is used, and ground troops are sent to carry out rescue missions. First, ensure the safety of the two hostages.
But many things were not as expected. Maybe the federation happened to hit the main structure of the base, and the space collapsed too fast. However, Lin Huaisheng did not take the initiative to find an exit to escape.
He has been waiting.
The floor of the main control room had cracked, just separating Lin Huaisheng from the other two people who were fighting, and as the crack got deeper and deeper, the main control room inside was in danger of sinking. C caught a glimpse of the situation, and immediately fired two shots at Arnold. When Arnold dodged sideways, C stepped on the raised steel plate with both feet and jumped to the opposite bank of the crack without saying a word.
The man grabbed Lin Huaisheng's hand.
"I've got you."
Lin Huaisheng smiled.
In the next second, the entire roof seemed to have collapsed, and the incomplete ceiling broke in two and fell down. C hugged Lin Huaisheng and rolled to the corner, avoiding the steel bars that could stab people through. The smoke and dust dissipated, Lin Huaisheng looked up from C's arms, and what he saw was a darker dome. It turned out that this place where the hostages were held had been hidden underground, so it didn't see sunlight all day long.
C pushed the back of Lin Huaisheng's head back into his arms with his backhand: "Close your eyes tightly, the dust is going to enter your eyes."
Okay.
Lin Huaisheng followed his advice.
He also didn't expect that the vicious kidnapper in this dungeon would end up becoming so caring and considerate as a good gentleman because of him, and he would never forget to tell him such things even at this time.
Due to the massive damage to the base, the way for C and Lin Huaisheng to leave the main control room has been completely blocked, and it is unknown what happened to Arnold near the door. C looked around and found a temporary exit that was squeezed out after the collapse. C knew the structure of the entire base well, and immediately understood that he could go all the way out from here. He stuffed the gun into Lin Huaisheng's hands, wrapped one hand around the lamb's waist, and the other around his hips. Lin Huaisheng was more than ten centimeters shorter than C, and in addition to being very light, C could easily hold the lamb's feet off the ground in his arms.
"The road is not easy to walk. I'll hug you and put my arms around my neck. Be steady."
C said, walking quickly as if walking on flat ground.
The cold barrel of the gun pressed against the back of the man's neck, which shows that the lamb obeyed obediently. C wondered if not being able to see would deepen the lamb's fear in danger, the man tried to amuse Lin Huaisheng with a clumsy joke he thought of on the spur of the moment.
"Lamb, don't point the barrel at me, it will go off."
C felt the lamb bounced in his arms, obviously frightened by his words, but instead of amusing Lin Huaisheng himself, Centipede got full satisfaction from it The joy in the chest, Lin Huaisheng could feel the powerful vibration of the chest he leaned against. Lin Huaisheng was a little speechless, because of C's strange jokes and his old-fashioned unknowing romance.
Lamb looked at the gun in his hand: "Why give it to me?"
"Hold it for me first, I want to hug you, I don't have any hands left."
When he reached the crack, C first surveyed the current stability of the surrounding walls, and then used his feet to hold the gun. The crack is big enough for a person to pass through. In order to prevent small stones from hitting Lin Huaisheng on the way, C helped Lin Huaisheng put the hood behind him on top of his head.
"I'll go there first and pick you up. I'll be back soon. Don't be afraid."
Seeing Lin Huaisheng nodding, C climbed out from the exit first. Outside is the corridor on the other side. Although it also collapsed, it just leads to the underground apron. After C confirmed it was safe, he immediately returned and half-dragged Lin Huaisheng out.
The endless corridors, the constant danger of falling, their fast running and running can also be a stroll in the courtyard.
The lamb yawned and even shed a little tear. He buried his head in the socket of Centipede's shoulder and rubbed it with the barely clean cloth there. He is like a little ancestor, enjoying the favored treatment in an escape with peace of mind.
"Sir, I just heard Mr. Arnold say that he has contacted the federation, and now the federation is hunting us. Shall we still get the energy core at location (236, xxx)?"
C gave up decisively.
"No."
Previously, C never thought that he would fail. He did all the lurid and big cases. In the past, as long as he failed once, it was enough for him to die countless times. So this time, he took it for granted that he would not fail. But the result is already predictable. Compared with failure, his name will become a shame that the dark elements ridicule at will, and it will be difficult for him to walk in this world as a Centipede forever.
But strangely, at this moment, C doesn't have much regret or resentment. His mood was very calm and calm, and he even had a little longing and expectation for that completely different and unknown new life. Maybe it was all because of the person he was holding in his arms, and the fact that he put down the gun was already a harbinger of this ending. Fleeing in exile, hiding his name, all willingly because of the love he got by accident.
Even the lamb being held by C at this moment seems to pass his boredom with carefree imagination during the long movement of the "mount".
"Where did you say 'Where is your favorite' last time?"
C responded: "I don't remember."
The lamb said "ah" and said: "I don't remember either."
But his tone was not depressed, because There are beautiful pastures all over the world, which attract this lamb to stop and stare.
He said quickly, "I like the Alps now."
"Okay. Go there."
"I want to go skiing."
"Okay... this is for your eyes... Even if I am willing to take you to play, there is no way."
"..."
"Really, the ski instructor will not agree."
"Sir, can you be my ski instructor?"
"..."
He wasn't that all-powerful either.
He's still going to test it. He is not at ease when others teach the lamb.
They haven't embarked on the journey, but they have already performed romance in the dialogue. So the true meaning of romance lies in people, not in every template that can be easily copied. C is very fortunate that there is such a selfless lamb in the world who is willing to let him learn the ability to love someone only by dictation.
So C hopes that this romantic road will be longer, and he will sweep away obstacles along the way with a gentlemanly manner.
"Lamb, give me the gun."
Lin Huaisheng gave it to him, and then put his hands on C's shoulders. C changed to holding the man with one hand, but it didn't feel difficult at all. He shot accurately at the vanguard of the Federation, and then he took out a grenade from the weapon pocket of his combat pants and threw it. With his familiarity with the terrain, he bypassed the rest of the Federation. The personnel ran towards the deeper underground.
The pursuers locked them and followed closely behind.
The previous 179 steps, maybe 1790 steps are not enough now, Lin Huaisheng felt the muscle tremor when C was running, and heard his panting, Lin Huaisheng closed his eyes and leaned on C's shoulder.
"Sir, I'm a little scared."
C pressed his head deeply into his arms, comforting the lamb with actions.
The third basement level has arrived.
As the huge alloy doors opened from both sides, the empty and tall underground space was revealed in front of Lin Huaisheng. At the end of the straight runway is a helicopter.
This should be the way the kidnappers took the hostages to come here at that time, but Lin Huaisheng was curious about how the helicopter would take off deep underground even with the apron.
For the last distance, C took Lin Huaisheng and ran quickly. Behind them, the federal military had also arrived.
C opened the hatch, pushed Lin Huaisheng up first, then turned around and shot again, after a while, Lin Huaisheng felt a strong vibration from the ground below him, which was different from the shaking caused by the bombs dropped by the Federation, more like the base itself setting. Afterwards, Lin Huaisheng saw that a beam of light suddenly shot into the dark space, and the sun scrambled to occupy the dark space. There were two huge alloy plates above his head, but now they were moving to both sides, and the entire apron followed suit. It rises gradually until it is level with the ground. At this time, C also got out and closed the door.
During this process, how many soldiers of the federal commando did not expect such a sudden situation, fell into the crack, and was swallowed by endless darkness. The remaining people on the tarmac continued to shoot at the helicopter.
C supported Lin Huaisheng to the driver's seat, and a bullet hit the window on Lin Huaisheng's side. C immediately comforted him: "It's okay, the whole plane is made of special materials, so it's not so easy to penetrate." At the same time, he fastened Lin Huaisheng's seat belt.
C also sat in the driver's seat.
"Sit down, we're leaving for the Alps."
The man who said this was charming and cute.
Lin Huaisheng also smiled.
Ground attacks can no longer stop them. The helicopter circled all the way to the north, and shortly thereafter, the task in Lin Huaisheng's mind was updated.
[Ding dong——]
[Mission: ... (Completed)]
The fighter planes of the Federation followed closely behind. They can't stop all the way. There was silence in the cabin for a long time, and Lin Huaisheng looked at the atmosphere in front of him in ecstasy. The white clouds were like clusters of flocs, as if he could get them at his fingertips.
He turned to look at C. The back of C's seat has been stained with blood, and it is not known when he was injured.
"It smells like blood."
Lin Huaisheng didn't say what he saw, but said that he had no sense of smell to use.
C didn't turn to look at him.
The man stared straight ahead and at the various dashboards and buttons on the control panel without blinking. The reality was far from being as calm as he verbally comforted Lin Huaisheng, but the man still gritted his teeth and used tenacious Perseverance supports one's own actions.
"Sorry, did I scare you, lamb, I won't be so bloody in the future."
C also lied, more attentively and sincerely than Lin Huaisheng. He wasn't lying either, he just said specious and ambiguous words, and he didn't want to lie to Lin Huaisheng again. If he had to, it would end with his concealment of his wound as a lie, and he would never say it again for the rest of his life.
He is so bad, but he still hopes to spend his whole life with the lamb.
In the Alps, on the banks of the Seine, blowing a sea breeze in Morocco, and tasting snow in Kilimanjaro.
If Lin Huaisheng can't recover his eyes, he will be the other's eyes for the rest of his life;
if Lin Huaisheng regains his light, they will go to experience every river and mountain;
if Lin Huaisheng wants to leave...he will quietly escort him along the way and send him away.
Lin Huaisheng,
Huaisheng,
Lamb.
The most beautiful interpretation of his love.
"Little sheep..." C endured the pain, "Come here, do me a favor... press a button, okay?"
Lin Huaisheng obediently took off his seat belt and came over.
The dagger pierced C's wound that had been torn open by the bullet, and C was in so much pain that he was dripping with cold sweat.
He opened his eyes wide in disbelief, turned his head, and the lamb's hand came around from the back of the chair, as if it was around his shoulder, as if it was still very close to him, but his right hand held a C for him to protect himself The knife, without hesitation, without mercy.
"Little lamb..."
Following the voice of C, Lin Huaisheng exerted force on his hand, and the tip of the blade stabbed deeper. At this time, Lin Huaisheng was so indifferent that it was almost vicious, he turned his wrist slightly, and the blade was grinding the meat in the wound.
C is completely speechless.
The Federation has caught up with them. No matter how tough the material in C's mouth was, it was impossible to withstand the frequent and violent attacks of the Federation. The main control board was constantly flashing red alarms, but neither Lin Huaisheng nor Centipede had time to pay attention.
Centipede stared blankly at his lamb, a lamb he was totally unfamiliar with, is this the one he loves, it turned out that this is his real appearance. He tried hard to see clearly, but the blood loss made him dizzy before his eyes. After that, Lin Huaisheng covered his eyes with his palms, the strength was the same as every time he comforted the lamb. C trembled and became timid, he lost so badly, he was so unwilling, he even wanted to ask Lin Huaisheng: If you hate him, hate him so much that you gritted your teeth and waited for an opportunity to fight back, is it right that if you run away with him but the plane is ruined and everyone dies? Not worth it.
He didn't dare to think about it.
Because he was afraid that it was his own passion, and he thought that the death for love was Lin Huaisheng's last resort. Xiaoyang didn't want to be with him at all, and Xiaoyang didn't have to die, but he insisted on dragging Lin Huaisheng to escape.
Lamb could have had better options.
"It's a lie to you, sir."
Hearing this, Centipede was taken aback. He could no longer say or do anything. His lamb was cruel to him, as if trying to hollow out his blood. The dagger kept stirring in his wound, and C even felt that the back of the chair behind him had been punctured. But Centipede didn't want to stop it at all.
The only thing he wanted to do was to take Lin Huaisheng's hands away from his eyes, he wanted to take a look.
Blood stained Lin Huaisheng's clean hands.
But he indulged his stubbornness and moved his hand away.
The helicopter's propeller was hit and it was falling rapidly.
C struggles to find those eyes in the infinite double shadows. He saw it, very bright, full of emotion, the laurel tree and the white jade rabbit, the west and the east, all the images and symbols of the moon, all concentrated in these crescent-like eyes.
In this way, it is better that the lamb is not blind.
"But it's true that I'm afraid of pain."
These were the last words Centipede heard in his life.
[Ding Dong——]
[Mission: Anti-killing the kidnappers (2/2) completed]
The blue sky was clear, and a ball of fire fell from the sky like a meteor.
Lin Huaisheng was in this falling flame.
He stretched his body, smiled and said, "It's so beautiful."
...
[Ding Dong——]
[Task 1: All the hostages escaped smoothly (completed)]
[Task 2: Kill the kidnappers (2/2) (completed)]
[Dungeon: Kidnapping (newcomer test level) clearance]
Accompanied by a series of electronic prompts, when Lin Huaisheng opened his eyes again, he had already returned to the pure black space where he was at the beginning. The big screen directly in front was also scrolling the information broadcast just now, and the cold reflected light reminded Lin Huaisheng of those screens in the main control room in the dungeon.
"Congratulations. You have passed the test with exceptional performance, and now you can officially become a player of the game, Lin Huaisheng."
A voice with a sincere smile resounded in the pure black space. The owner of the voice has no entity, which makes Lin Huaisheng seem to be talking to a cold machine. Of course, Lin Huaisheng believes that this existence named "Teacher 751"-an artificial intelligence, is essentially a machine.
Lin Huaisheng stretched his waist, and tears welled up in his eyes again.
Lin Huaisheng had a lot of fun playing this dungeon, but he had been pretending to be blind for a long time, and his eyes couldn't help crying. Now the dungeon has become a "sequel" that cannot be corrected in the short term.
"Mr. 751, you seem to be much gentler than you were at the beginning."
"Really." The voice answered meekly, "For mediocre beings, they can't show their value, so it's not worth paying more attention to."
"But you Obviously not them. I've seen you in dungeons." You deserve it.
Lin Huaisheng smiled and refused to comment on 751's praise. The other party's words conveyed the essence of indifference. If Lin Huaisheng was no different from the mortal beings it spoke of, then he would not come back here after the dungeon was over. But both Lin Huaisheng and "Everyone" were actually selected by this game and joined the game involuntarily.
But now Lin Huaisheng began to like it a little bit.
"Mr. 751, how is my performance compared to other players in the 'kidnapped' instance?"
He showed a little childish competitiveness, which of course made this young man look even more charming.
751 told Lin Huaisheng: "Every player's newcomer test level is different, you are the only player who has entered the 'kidnapping'."
"But even if there are others, you are unique."
Who doesn't like to hear praise, Lin Huaisheng also Not exempt.
He smiled: "Thank you, Mr. 751."
751 also laughed. Although its voice is cold, artificial intelligence is willing to imitate and approach human communication methods. At this stage, Lin Huaisheng is still very happy to get along with such a gentleman.
"When will I start my first official dungeon?"
751 was surprised: "Are you in a hurry? Unlike in the test dungeon where you are the only one, all the main characters in the official dungeon are played by players. You need to confront real people. The number of characters and character stories in each dungeon are correspondingly more and more complicated. I suggest that you rest for a few days and adjust your state before entering the dungeon."
Lin Huaisheng thanked 751 very politely, but did not express it publicly His attitude towards 751's proposal. he asked instead.
"About real players, you mentioned it to me before. Are all the characters in 'Kidnapped' taken over by the game?"
"Yes." 751 replied.
"Even if multiple copies are played at the same time, the game can control hundreds of characters?"
Lin Huaisheng heard 751 laugh.
"This is his world, and he is omnipotent."
Lin Huaisheng nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
He simply ended the topic, but 751 seemed very hopeful that Lin Huaisheng would continue to be curious, and even started the conversation instead: "You took the initiative to ask, are there any impressive people and things in the dungeon?"
Lin Huaisheng shook his head: " No."
"I don't like that dungeon very much."
"Why."
Lin Huaisheng said lightly, "Because it's too dark. I don't like a piece of darkness."
751's voice paused, and the next moment, everyone in the 'dark space' The darkness faded away, turning into pure white in an instant.
Lin Huaisheng was slightly stunned, and laughed dumbly: "Thank you, but I don't like white either, I don't like any large area of solid color."
"Okay." 751 didn't show the anger of being refuted, "This is your space, you can arrange it as you like in the future."
"Then start to draw the ID card of the first official copy now."
Black and white are reversed, and the current In the pure white space, there is a pitch-black electronic screen corresponding to it. A pale white light illuminates in the middle of the screen, and then the copy's name appears.
[Chariots and horses]
Then six cards of the same suit appeared at the bottom of the screen.
From choosing one of three cards in the test level to choosing one of six cards now, it is consistent with what 751 said, and the official copy will only be more difficult. Lin Huaisheng has begun to look forward to it, but he doesn't know if it's more fun to play with the game consciousness, or to play with other players.
There is no need to calculate painstakingly among the six identical cards, Lin Huaisheng prefers to see each other after getting the information. In the last round, Lin Huaisheng also saved the day and won a beautiful card when he was drawn the card "Blind Hostage with Stockholm".
Lin Huaisheng likes to gamble, and the more exciting it is, the more he likes it.
So he didn't hesitate: "The second card on the right."
After he finished speaking, that card became the size of Lin Huaisheng's palm and appeared in Lin Huaisheng's hand. The other five cards dimmed and then faded away.
When Lin Huaisheng opened the card, he stopped smiling.
The character introduction on the card reads impressively:
I only hope that the king's heart is like mine - the princess who is about to marry soon.
Although I like stimulation, it should not be this kind of stimulation.
Lin Huaisheng picked up the cards.
"This is the female player's identity card. Doesn't the game make any distinctions?"
751 Shenshen replied down-to-earth: "In the game, everything is possible."
Apparently it means irreversible. Moreover, this card also appeared in Lin Huaisheng's space immediately, juxtaposed with the "hostage" card, with a brighter light shining on the edge.
Lin Huaisheng endured and endured, and finally grinned.
"Okay, that's it."
"Then see you next time, Mr. 751."
751 made a timely gesture: "I can accompany you."
However, Lin Huaisheng refused.
"No."
"I prefer the experience of playing alone."
"And Mr. 751 didn't say that when he tested the level."
751 was silent.
Before Lin Huaisheng entered the dungeon, 751 stopped him.
"Actually, He is very curious about your performance. How did you perfectly disguise yourself as a blind hostage?"
Lin Huaisheng blinked unconsciously.
"Maybe thanks to an invisible friend I once met."
751 repeated: "A friend?"
Just by recalling the behavior of the other party, can you perform it flawlessly?
But obviously, this is Lin Huaisheng's answer.
Lin Huaisheng said: "In this case, I would like to trouble 751 to convey a word to the game."
"Mr. Ethel's behavior is not very polite, please don't do it next time."
