Crow's Paradise

Outside Yancheng, there are basically ruins.

A vaguely familiar scene could be seen - the ruins of high-rise buildings belonging to the city.

But most of them have been completely destroyed.

Only relatively complete parts of human traces such as highways and roads remain.

These scenery are remnants of the era he was familiar with during his lifetime.

but.

what happened?

The only building that was not completely destroyed, but mostly collapsed. There were only five or six floors left on the ruins of the high-rise building that should have been dozens of floors. Crows of different shapes were scanning the ruins.

From here, it is visually estimated that the distance to Yancheng is about five kilometers.

However, Yancheng cannot be seen.

The hazy fog shadows allowed only things with visibility of one or two kilometers to come into view.

and

This fog is always shrouded.

He raised his head and looked to the sky.

Just like near Yancheng, the sky cannot be seen at all.

What happened to make the original world become like this?

What is this fog that covers the sky?

Pairs of crows looked at the sky shrouded in fog, with no stars visible, looking very quiet and gloomy:

"A time when no celestial bodies are visible during the day or night."

The sound coming out of the crow's beak sounded under the silent night sky.

At this time, a word came to his mind:

"Lonely?"

Lonely?

Human beings are animals that live in groups, and individuals who cannot integrate into the group have a higher probability of death.

Individuals with the characteristics of relying on the group are often more likely to survive and have offspring as a member of the group.

And they tend to rely on groups.

Speaking of this, he still remembered that before him, there were always some people who felt that being alone in reality meant not relying on a group, and not belonging to this type of person was special.

However.

These people have forgotten to communicate with other people on the Internet.

If they are indeed not with anyone else, not through the Internet or other means, and are not accompanied by other animals, then it can indeed be said that they are.

He understands this quite well. After all, he has always been like that after the catastrophe due to the pain caused by genetic collapse.

At least until virtual reality technology is developed.

Looking back now, he remembered it quite clearly.

After being rescued by the disaster relief team, he has been staying in the hospital. No, should it be called a medical facility?

The skin is ulcerated and cannot grow back, the flesh and blood are ulcerated, and the body fluids are constantly flowing out. This miserable state of life is worse than death, which lasts for a long time. He even loses his hearing and his vision is almost gone.

At that time, let alone communicating with other people, he couldn't speak even if he wanted to.

but

At the beginning, when he learned that the disease was incurable, he asked to go online.

Judging from his memory, what he was thinking at that time was that he was going to die anyway, and it was better to die with a smile than with full of negative emotions.

And as a dying request, he was allowed.

He couldn't speak or move, let alone touch the screen. The doctor said that the white blood cells in his body were almost dead.

At that time, let alone communicating with others, reading comments, chat content, and reading novels can all relieve loneliness.

No, just looking at this behavior can alleviate feelings of loneliness.

It's just that the degree of relief is different.

And at that time, he actually couldn’t access the Internet.

At that time, the medical facility where he lived was disconnected from the Internet.

He didn't know what was going on in the outside world. He could only understand some things from the doctors' occasional chats.

Later, things improved.

His illness was cured.

Methods were provided to deal with the situation where skin and flesh were ulcerated.

It's just not completely resolved.

Every other month, I had to undergo a treatment that was painful in my memory.

Moreover, although the seemingly miserable and terrifying problem has been solved, the pain in the body will continue.

However, at least at that time, compared to the skin and flesh ulcers and intermittent pain, the continuous pain was still acceptable.

It's just that the price is that special means are needed to fall asleep.

After that, virtual reality technology made breakthroughs and developed, and suddenly, the medical facility where he was working also introduced a number of them.

It should be considered a blessing in disguise? Patients throughout the medical facility have become game testing opportunities for several virtual reality game companies for this reason.

So did Yao Yan.

At that time, he had nothing else to do, other than lie in bed all day.

Moreover, soon, from the chats of those doctors, Yao Yan learned that many patients had improved their mood and alleviated their conditions because of playing games. After that, the medical facilities continued to work in this regard. Few relevant arrangements.

Once, a game company even held an event directly in a medical facility.

After that, more than a thousand patients in the entire medical facility started playing the game.

Thinking of this, he raised his head again and looked at the hazy sky.

Although there is no Internet connection to the outside world, people in the entire medical facility have become players of various virtual reality games.

He played games like Nightmare Game and Crowland with people in the same medical facility.

Although it is only a LAN, there is nothing we can do.

Due to radiation, various electronic equipment in the outside world at that time were damaged.

Even in medical facilities, frequent inspections and timely treatment are required, otherwise some electronic equipment will break.

Although he has never been out or even left his ward, it should be correct.

Radiation has enveloped the entire city.

Of course, the premise is that what the doctors said when they didn't deliberately avoid him is true.

If those doctors deliberately made mistakes, or said that what they knew was wrong, or there was some key information that they did not know, then of course there would be problems with the conclusions they drew.

However, the possibility should not be high.

After all, thousands of patients in the entire medical facility are players, and through conversations with other players during the game, the information obtained did not conflict with his speculations.

Shaking his head, Yao Yan stopped thinking about these things. The crows flapped their wings and put the pieces of the helmet together.

Rather than thinking about whether these things exist or not, it would be better to find a safer trial space and let yourself complete the promotion.

After all, he now has five secondary abilities in addition to his main body ability.

According to Lao Jia's previous information, after having 4 abilities with high enough compatibility, you can try to be promoted.

Speaking of this, he was a little confused again.

In "Crows Paradise", the maximum number of phenomenon cards that level 2 players can have is 4.

But now, he is five.

The hierarchical relationship with Crow Paradise is still different.
