The Truth of Magic

Chapter 557: A Mysterious Man in a Wild Dead Land

The wild and dead land is located at the mouth of the entire Northland.

Although it occupies the coastline here, the negative energy level in the entire forbidden area exceeds the general standard, and the corpses buried in the ground are often unconsciously transformed into undead creatures.

Even the growth of crops in this piece of land is very ordinary. Gradually, the name of this area was changed from "wild area" to "wild dead land", and no living people dared to set foot on it anymore.

This incomparably vast area of ​​the Northland has gradually become a desolate and extinct place, and it is only a place where adventurers with strong strength dare to set foot on weekdays.

However, there are also many adventurers who entered and became undead creatures when they came out again.

As the morning light came down, gradually, an ordinary person lying on the ground blinked and slowly woke up.

"What happened? It should be a dream."

Just as the civil servant who had just stepped into the society opened his eyes, he was surprised to find that the surrounding jungle was very different from the earth style.

It is more similar to the "Arthur" he played before.

"Damn it, I don't think I'm thinking about it day and night, but I miss this game that was discontinued a month ago." The man rubbed his eyes again.

It was only the next moment that he realized that the half body armor he was wearing was very real, and the touch was exactly the same as before. The only thing wrong was the heavy feeling, which made him not used to it for a while.

"Shouldn't I really time travel?" The man couldn't believe it, and couldn't help touching his face, as if he wanted to gain some sense of reality from it.

"It's not just you, it's everyone." Suddenly the voice behind him made the man jump. He hurriedly turned his head and found that it was a ranger wearing a chain mail shirt, and some reinforced vines were wrapped around the armor , obviously it has been damaged several times after being battle-tested.

"What do you mean?" The warrior man couldn't help asking.

"Look." As he spoke, the ranger pointed to the position behind him.

On the muddy ground behind, hundreds of people lay densely packed, but most of them were in a coma, and only a few Arthur players like him woke up.

"So everything is real?" the man muttered to himself, "I thought it was a dream, hey—"

"Don't lie down stupidly." The Ranger player warned, "This forest is very wrong. I'm afraid that these people may not wake up if they lie down again."

"Then what?"

"All turned into zombies and skeletons."

——

Overall, the players were scattered into the entire wild dead land.

Compared with the billions of people on the earth, the originally extremely large number of players is a drop in the bucket.

If it weren't for the fact that there were existences in the player echelon that couldn't be defeated by crowd tactics, otherwise the crowd alone would have filled the player's side.

"Quick, block it." At this moment, a girl cried out bitterly.

In front of her was a zombie waving its arms, approaching the woman step by step.

The other party was also an earthling who traveled together, but within a few hours, he was corroded by negative energy and died directly in his sleep.

Immediately, the deceased was transformed by the negative energy into a zombie with atrophied muscles and a collapsed face. With the yellowish complexion and the stench that came out automatically, those who were a little bit smarter slipped away in an instant.

"Come on."

The woman's girlfriend looked at the men in front of her who were all gearing up but didn't move and shouted.

"We have to look at the situation, who knows what caused this, what if we become zombies when we touch it?" A muscular man explained euphemistically.

Behind them were hundreds of other survivors.

The horrible scenes in zombie movies that can be contagious by touching have deeply affected everyone's judgment.

"What kind of men are you?" the woman's best friend cried.

Just when everyone was worried and looked at the woman, as if the other party would lose his life soon, but there was nothing they could do.

Suddenly, a long sword was seen from the waist, and in an instant, the headshot of the sword ended the zombie.

Immediately, the woman wearing a bust to prevent the tragedy put away her long sword and said to everyone: "Don't worry, everyone, we will reorganize the order. These zombies are not contagious. We just need to work together to kill them. Wake up the unconscious man quickly."

Similar scenes are constantly being repeated throughout the wilderness.

The first wave of crisis is that those who do not wake up in time are gradually transformed into zombies by negative energy in their sleep, and even buried into skeletons.

This is the horror of this dead land, and it cannot be buried.

As for some areas with police and soldiers, although they are not as good as the average players, they are still more than enough to deal with one or two zombies after overcoming the infection.

It's just that at this moment, the monsters in the entire wild and dead place are also spying on this group of uninvited guests.

Slowly, after going through the discomfort at the beginning of time travel, they realized that the world they traveled through was not the peaceful world they had imagined, and the people also began to organize small teams to protect themselves.

In this doomsday-like atmosphere, many of the upper classes of the earth have gradually realized that their original greatest reliance on "production resources" has been lost.

Unless it is that kind of professional and technical person, otherwise it has lost its reputation.

And when some huge animals and even ferocious animals appeared, these "Arthur players" who had been in contact with the game gradually stood out on the spot.

"Everyone line up one by one, let's register their identities first."

The leading player called out to the crowd to line up. The image of him and his companions besieging and beheading a tiger that killed two people with ease just now was deeply reflected in the hearts of everyone.

Otherwise, if a tiger is allowed to roam here, there will soon be corpses all over the place.

"Leader, all right." The barbarian player said to his real superior.

At this time, the middle-aged man with superior temperament nodded in satisfaction, "Xiao Qi, well done, when we go back, we will not forget your contribution."

"You should also quickly contact your former player partners, and use the name of the organization to recruit them and make them obey the arrangement. After all, this is an emergency, and only by working together can we find a way out." The middle-aged man said clearly Watertight.

However, he was also rejoicing in his heart, fortunately, this young man who he didn't like at first was a player of this game, and now he can rely on his "power" to control the scene.

Even relying on Xiao Qi's status as the captain in the game, several of his subordinates have returned to the team to obey his arrangements.

"Hey, don't push our brother, he just finished filming yesterday and is very tired."

Suddenly there was a commotion in the original queue.

Knowing that the noise might be transmitted in an instant and cause a bigger mutiny, several people hurried over.

"What's going on?" asked the barbarian named Xiao Qi.

Immediately, a slightly shorter woman protected a handsome man behind her, and told the ins and outs of what happened just now. At the same time, there were three or four other companions beside the woman.

The few of them directly surrounded the man inside, protecting them tightly, while the handsome man remained silent.

Xiao Qi, who was originally under heavy pressure, seemed to recall unbearable memories, and suddenly cursed: "Line up in line with discipline."

"I don't care who you were, whether you were a celebrity or a businessman, but I want to tell you one thing!"

"What you are now is Arthur, Arthur who has to rely on his own hands to earn his life, don't think about relying on the glory of the past, and feel that he can live in peace here."

"So please take back your airs and violate discipline. I can only ask you to leave and take back your protection."

And the girl who just spoke up to protect the idol behind her originally wanted to refute, but when she thought of the terrifying appearance of the tiger that pounced over at the beginning, the courage that was finally aroused was also dissipated.

She lowered her head and responded, "Yes, we will comply."

And the middle-aged leader standing behind Xiao Qi also changed his face several times when he heard these words.

It's just that his many years of self-cultivation made him try his best to keep smiling.

It's no wonder that Xiao Qi suddenly exploded at this moment, because from the moment he crossed, he found that his body was no longer the sick and frail scholar he used to be, but had really become a strong warrior.

However, players are not creatures out of society after all, no matter how lonely they are, they all have their own relatives.

And relatives are also the relationship that most directly affects the players.

The relatives of these players who have never been in contact with Arthur, the first reaction is to believe in the original organization, not the players who have already taken the lead, and naturally advise the players to obey the orders of the organization that has no combat capabilities.

Naturally, after the order was stabilized in the first few hours, the earth traversals in the entire wild and dead land silently formed a new manager, which was temporarily composed of players and the original earth management.

Even these former managements were not stingy with positions, and directly promised positions that countless people in previous lives might not be able to climb for generations, so that this force temporarily stabilized.

Soon, these groups also began to get in touch with nearby groups, and these earth traversals also slowly discovered something.

All the people on Earth have traveled to the same place.

The players also realized that this area was much larger than they originally expected.

"Line in line, now we need to take a roll call. Don't run around, the neighborhood is dangerous, and no one can protect you if something goes wrong."

A middle-aged woman with a sharp face shouted, she has a lot of dealings with the grassroots, so she naturally knows how to scare the people most conveniently.

And below her is a huge team of thousands of people. The crowded space is tight, but it is also convenient for the players on the outer layer to patrol.

"What do you think about Xiaoxu? It's all your fault. You agreed to travel with him from the beginning." A middle-aged woman sighed, complaining about her husband.

"At that time he said that he wanted to confirm something, and that kind of firm look was the first time in my life since I watched him grow up." The woman's husband also sighed, "You know that Xiao Xu hasn't been with us since he was a child. Whatever he wants, he is very considerate, how can I refuse when he begged me so much before the exam."

"Then look, our area is based on the orientation of the earth. Now Xiaoxu must be in the corresponding area of ​​the magic city. I don't know what's going on. Is she hungry?" The middle-aged woman was worried.

"Don't worry too much." The woman's husband gently pressed his wife's shoulder, "Didn't you notice that in this kind of situation, young laborers are in demand, and once you have the opportunity to become one of those people, That's an opportunity."'

The middle-aged woman also reacted a little at this time, "Oh, I remember that Xiao Xu posted a message in the family group a month ago, as if it was to let us enter this game."

Immediately, the man got angry, "Did you forget that we also entered eight months ago? Don't you think your physical fitness is different now?"

"It's just a pity that Zhao Xu doesn't like playing games, so he missed this opportunity to become a master."

As he said that, he looked back, and saw that the weaker old men had been eroded by the negative energy in the ground, and their faces were pale, as if they couldn't survive at any time.

Suddenly, the middle-aged woman pulled her husband's sleeve excitedly.

"What's wrong?" The man didn't respond.

"Yes Yes--"

"Stop! Who?"

At this time, the mean woman who was counting the personnel scolded, but she immediately saw that the man in front of her was wearing a cloak that was shining with stars.

The opponent is a player!

And the mysterious man gently passed the other side and walked all the way to the two middle-aged couples, "Mom and Dad, come with me first, I will arrange for you to go to a safe place."

The man's voice was not loud, but it seemed a bit solemn.

Immediately after noticing the mysterious man, the management personnel in charge of this area rushed over, and there were also two players behind them.

"Mr. Mage, we are now temporarily recruiting you to join the Arthur Player Guard in accordance with the emergency regulations and instructions. I hope you will obey the arrangement and work hard for the survival of human beings."

Trotting over, the man standing at the front conveyed to the mysterious man panting.

"Get out of the way." The mysterious man's voice was sharp, as if full of killing intent.
