Congratulations, You've Become an NPC

When Christina comes here.

All he saw was a sea of ​​fire.

The scorching heat, the distorted vision, everything seemed to be boiling.

From time to time, iron filings that were burned red and came from nowhere fell from the sky.

Christina was almost burned by these iron filings several times.

The temperature above was at least several hundred degrees. Christina speculated that she must have had direct contact with the flames in front of her.

But, how could they appear here? The flames were in front.

The current wind is not strong enough to blow iron filings.

"Is this an amazing... discovery?"

In Christina's pupils, the tail flames of the flames were swaying, adding a wild look to her eyes.

boom!

At this time, another explosion sounded.

The ground shook twice, but it was not enough to make anyone fall.

Christina's steps staggered slightly.

"what happened?"

This flame looks like it has been burning for a long time. Why is there something inside the building that can explode?

Logically speaking, this shouldn't be the case.

Christina's eyes were fixed on the building itself, covered in flames.

A small black spot appeared in her field of vision.

The black spot was located above the building, and it seemed to be a little red.

It looks a little shaky.

"What's that? A bird?"

Christina couldn't see clearly, it was too far away.

However, birds should not be able to survive such high temperatures.

What's more, the location of the black spot is still the center of the flame.

With such a high temperature, even humans would be burned to death, let alone birds.

"It seems to be coming in my direction."

Christina watched curiously as the black spot moved closer to her, without any intention of retreating.

This is the nature of players,

No matter what Christina does, she can't escape this point.

Just like moths fly to fire, mosquitoes suck blood.

Players cannot refuse anything novel.

This is their nature,

The nature that he has had since he came into this world.

The black spots are getting closer,

Cristina gradually could see a little bit of the shape of the black spot.

"Looking at the shape, it looks like a person?"

However, although that one looked like a "human", his skin was burning red.

Human skin cannot become so red anyway.

If it is said to be caused by high temperature, when human skin is burned to this level of red, it has already melted.

Christina stared carefully and suddenly remembered the specialties of the royal capital.

In other words, a specialty of the empire.

"……robot?"

If that's the case, it seems to make sense.

But, why is the robot here? Their bodies cannot withstand such high temperatures.

Christina obviously didn't quite understand what she thought.

For the empire, if civilians are consumables, then robots are low-level consumables.

From the start, they had no option to leave.

Even if they die, they still have to perform their tasks.

Anyway, a robot of this level,

The Empire's factories can produce hundreds of units every hour.

The death of a few dozen is nothing more than a haircut to the empire - harmless.

Of course, Christina didn't know any of this.

She has been in contact with those robots and knows that they are highly intelligent.

So she took it for granted that these robots could leave here according to their own judgment.

[Didi... Didi, detected... civilian...]

[Please...leave as soon as possible. 】

After standing there for a while, the black spots got closer and closer, and finally the whole picture appeared in Christina's eyes.

What she had thought before was indeed correct, this was indeed a robot.

When it flew in front of Christina, it also sounded several alarms.

"Is this why you worked so hard to fly to me?"

Christina looked at the robot and asked softly.

Its iron skin was still exuding a scalding temperature, and the air around it was a little distorted.

Fortunately, Christina is a player and can be immune to these pains to the greatest extent.

[Didi, please leave as soon as possible. 】

[It's... not safe here. 】

The robot didn't answer Christina's words and kept chirping.

Christina's eyes reflected the shadow of the robot.

Its body, after the redness gradually faded, became extremely dark.

This look was completely different from the beautiful machines Christina had seen before.

However, this look made Christina feel more deeply than before.

far away,

Arno looked at this scene with an expressionless expression.

Christina went a little too deep.

She felt sympathy for the machine, which she shouldn't have.

"I actually forgot that there are players like this occasionally."

There are many experiential players who immerse themselves wholeheartedly into the world of the game.

However, there are very few people who can truly feel empathy.

"What I do next may leave a bad impression on her."

"But it doesn't matter."

"Now I am Yanmo Noine, not Arno. It doesn't matter if I attract disgust."

"As long as I can achieve my goal, that's enough."

With that said, Arno walked out of the shadows.

——

Christina was surrounded by the light of the flames.

The flames turned her white pleated dress orange-red.

Even the long black hair has become dazzling and no longer has that mysterious color.

She was now like a flaming elf, staring at the sad man in front of her.

"Why don't you leave?"

Christina asked the machine.

However, no one answered her question.

The machine's generating system was damaged just now, and now it's just watching Christina anxiously as she spins around.

It also thinks about fulfilling its responsibilities.

Christina opened her mouth, wanting to say something else.

However, there was a sound of footsteps behind her at this moment, interrupting her unspoken words.

"There are actually people in this world who sympathize with machines."

"That's rare enough."

Amidst the indifference, a voice with a little warmth came from behind Christina.

Her body stiffened and she turned around suddenly.

"Don't panic, I have no ill intentions towards you."

The person in front of me is smiling,

His face was too familiar to Christina, a player.

"…Y-Yanmo Noine!?"

Christina couldn't help but screamed.

When she finished speaking, she covered her mouth with regret.

"Oh? You know me?"

Arno asked warmly.

Christina shook her head.

How could she tell Yanmo that kind of thing.

"Forget it, my portraits are all over the streets anyway."

"Just know that I mean no harm to you."

As Arno said this, he took out a long sword from nowhere.

The sharp blade reflects the cold color full of chill.

"Hand over that robot."
