Chapter 30 Greedy Wolf
Caiyu City is the main city of Feilianxing, built by the sea.There is no winter all year round, and the weather is sunny most of the time.Therefore, it is also the most popular place on Feilian Star.
Besides the sun and the beach, the most famous thing here is the largest entertainment battle arena on the edge of the galaxy - the old star global game.
The majestic snow-capped mountains are reflected on the frozen lake, and the cliffs are covered in white snow.
Su Ling opened his palm up and moved his fingers briefly.Fingerless gloves are not very comfortable and always hinder dexterity.
It is obviously a virtual projection, but you can still clearly feel the chill of ice and snow, as well as the clear smell of the cold wind.
If it weren't for the occasional small piece of mosaic mark exposed by the dome, it could almost be fake here.Soon, thick clouds obscured the clues.
"You're distracted." Xiao Huaiyan's voice came from behind, seemingly dissatisfied.
When the gust of wind came, Su Ling turned sideways to avoid it, and his black boots left marks on the snow.He blocked Xiao Huaiyan's attack with his backhand, and at the same time swept his long legs, trying to knock him to the ground.
Xiao Huaiyan's reaction was faster than he expected.
In a gust of snow wind, Xiao Huaiyan let go of his hand and dodged towards the icy lake, while wrapping the bandage around his left hand.
Not a moment later, Su Ling stopped on the lake in a daze.
In the reflection on the ice, his appearance changed.The black eyes are like deep pools, the long hair has become shorter, and the broken hair on the forehead almost covers the eyes.
The next time the wind blows, Suling hears where the wind is coming from.While judging, he kicked with his cross leg.However, the person who fell was not reconciled, insisted on pulling him, and punched him head-on.
Su Ling didn't hide, until the clenched fist stopped in front of his eyes, opened suddenly, and a cloud of ice and snow flew away.The shiny snowflakes are like silver butterflies, and even the subtle textures are extremely clear.
Su Ling couldn't help but sneezed.Only then did the pale cheeks have a little color.
Xiao Huaiyan lay on the ice lake, with a smile on his lips: "The origin of the old star game is the old star paradise in M27, and all the scenes here are replicas of the old star."
Su Ling stood up and found that Xiao Huaiyan's hand was stretched out in mid-air, naturally facing himself.He thought for a while, and pulled him hard.
"In order to make the overall game more interesting, everyone's appearance will be changed," Xiao Huaiyan pointed to his blue hair at this time, "Everyone's projection here will have a faster speed and a stronger power than reality. Attack power is simply an enhancement. But for you, it may be for balance."
Because Su Ling obviously felt that all his actions had slowed down, especially his reaction.It made him uncomfortable.
"Let's go." Xiao Huaiyan raised his chin slightly, but found that Su Ling didn't move.There was a slight dissatisfaction in those two-way flat eyes at this moment.
Su Ling said seriously: "One more time."
Afraid that Xiao Huaiyan didn't understand, he repeated: "I want to fight with you again."
The two of them were the only ones thrown into this snow-capped mountain area, and their youthful vigor made them unwilling to admit defeat first.Even if Su Ling is restricted, he intuitively needs to try his best to distinguish the superior.
Rubbing the melted snow off his face with the back of his hand, Xiao Huaiyan took a breath, but his brows and eyes were relaxed because of his enjoyment.
The hair in front of Su Ling's forehead was wet, he didn't care, he was still observing Xiao Huaiyan's movements.Because consciousness is faster than action, there will always be some deviations in his judgment here.But soon, he knew how to correct it.
The snow wind grew louder unconsciously.Xiao Huaiyan sat on the ground exhausted, with his hands behind his back, and saw Su Ling turning his head slightly, still waiting for him.
He seemed in a good mood, looking at everything around him seriously.
However, at the next moment, Xiao Huaiyan jumped up from the ground, pulled Su Ling and ran towards the apron not far away.
Huge cracks appeared on the ice surface passing by under his feet, and began to collapse after a muffled sound.The gust of wind engulfed the passing lake.
"The circle is shrinking." Xiao Huaiyan quickly started the helicopter and pulled up the joystick.
The moment the helicopter left the ground, the landslides and the ground cracked, and the ice and snow collapsed.
A red alarm flashed on the screen in front of Suling, and the periphery of the originally huge map was gradually turning black.
The reason why the old star global game is popular is because it is an entertainment game that everyone can participate in—essentially, it is a knockout game where the red and blue teams fight against each other. Any form of "death" in the game is counted as elimination. As the difficulty level of the global competition increases, the participants gradually change from ordinary enthusiasts to elite students and professionals.
With the strong support from the officials of Caiyu City, the old star global game has also become an indispensable entertainment in the marginal galaxy.
"There are people below." Su Ling looked down at the boundless desert from the glass plate, and accurately found a few small hidden black spots.
On the edge of the lake not far away, green vines twine around a fortress made of stones, and bubbles shuttle between the ripples.With a gunshot, the swan staying on the lake flapped its wings and flew away, leaving the stray bullets behind.
Xiao Huaiyan stopped the helicopter on the side covered by the mountain, dug out two guns from the cabin, and threw one of them to Su Ling.
The mechanical female voice is broadcasting: "9 people survived in the audience, 5 people from the red team, and 4 people from the blue team. The remaining time is six 10 minutes."
Su Ling glanced down at the red wristband on his wrist, then glanced at the red wristband not far away, and pulled up the hood of his coat indifferently.
Under the scorching sun, the Gobi had no shelter, and the shadows of the two swayed on the surface of the dust particles, one behind the other.
Just as we reached the edge of the Gobi, a series of cannon blasts exploded from the ground.
"Run!" A clear voice shouted to the two of them, and then jumped lightly into the smoke and dust.
Su Ling noticed his whereabouts, and walked along with Xiao Huaiyan one by one.
After leaving this ambush area, the person who just reminded them was waiting in front.The man was thin, with a handsome face and a hearty smile.He shook his wristband and said to Suling: "I haven't seen you before, I'm number 12. There are two people in our team, have you seen them?"
"No," Xiao Huaiyan replied before Su Ling, "We just got here."
The man showed a suddenly realized expression, and said with a smile: "I found a higher place, so I can go up and observe first."
Following the direction he pointed, the highest point of the fort was a watchtower.
This is also where Xiao Huaiyan and Su Ling planned to go.
Su Ling was about to nod his head when several gunshots landed on the edge of the lake, echoing in the empty wasteland.
"Let's go quickly, we will lose if the stalemate continues." The strange young man urged.
Su Ling turned around and found that Xiao Huaiyan had no intention of moving.His gaze fell further away, where the gunshots came from just now—on the hill opposite the observation deck.The hills are densely packed with small holes, which look like a giant beehive.
The gunshots echoed in the ear, gradually slowing down, and at the same time showing a certain sound pattern.There is a fine line between haste and slowness.
"Don't look." Xiao Huaiyan covered Su Ling's eyes from behind.
But Su Ling still felt a beam of extremely strong white light, which flooded the entire field of vision in an instant.
Three seconds later, Su Ling saw the torch hanging on the rock wall, and thin water droplets fell from the tip of the stalactite.
"The teleportation array of the old star global game," Xiao Huaiyan explained to him, and raised his jaw towards the two figures who were working hard at the window, "Where did you pick it up?"
"Boss?!" The two turned their heads and said in unison. Their faces were painted with various colors of paint, and their clothes were similar to those of the aborigines in the undeveloped areas of the northern galaxy.
Xizi almost burst into tears: "Suling is here, great! Finally, I don't have to be bullied!"
Ou Chuchu is holding a convertible laser gun on the window sill. There is a hazy film on the front window, and only the muzzle of the gun passes through the film.
Judging from the direction of the lake and the watchtower, Su Ling realized that they were in the beehive-like hills.
"You guys don't know what the people in the blue side are. They can't beat us head-on, so let's play dirty." Xizi pointed to the little black dot galloping towards the observation deck, "Here is this person, He was the one who tricked Lian Xiao away 15 minutes ago."
Not long ago, Xi Zidu and Ou Chuchu were the first to meet in the global competition, and there were a few fellow students from the Imperial College.When they went out to look for Lian Xiao, they saw the young man take Lian Xiao to a place close to the watchtower, and he was sent out immediately.
It didn't take long before the people on the red side were gradually eliminated on the way to hide.
"They have a sniper with a good aim." Ou Chuchu added.
As soon as the voice fell, a flag was hung on the observation deck opposite.On the pulled blue fabric is a picture of a gun broken in two, and an unscathed rabbit tied in front of the target, with a provocative laugh from a grinning mouth.
Ou Chuchu blushed with anger: "I, I wasn't very accurate, but they mocked me! I fought them!"
She grabbed the knife on the ground for a long time, but couldn't touch anything because of the dim light.She straightened her glasses, and found that she couldn't see clearly. In a hurry, she opened the laser gun and just swept around.
The watchtower stood still.
"Forget it, forget it." Xizi persuaded in a low voice.
Su Ling tilted his head and watched for a while, then stepped forward and touched the trigger of another long-range laser gun next to him.In the simulated environment, it is cold and lacks a bit of the metallic luster in reality.
He lifted it up easily and saw a blur through the scope.
Shadows cover the scope.
Xiao Huaiyan stood beside him, and after adjusting for two seconds, his vision began to become clear.
Su Ling felt that he was standing very close, accompanied by a low laugh.
"Wrong gesture."
Su Ling turned his head and almost bumped into Xiao Huaiyan."That's right," he insisted.
Xiao Huaiyan sighed, grabbed the gun body and pressed it to a straight angle, then touched his hand lightly, and adjusted to a correct and comfortable posture.His hands were almost encircling, but there was still some distance between them.
"Stand firm, don't be nervous." Xiao Huaiyan said.
Su Ling was baffled, and the breath that was close at hand seemed a little stalemate when the tail of the hair passed by.He didn't pay attention, and concentrated on aiming at the figure finally revealed from the observation deck.
That's right, at this time.
A white light pierced through the haphazardly flying bullets. With a "boom", the top of the observation deck shook.Three seconds later, the stone collapsed.The original towering observation deck seemed to have been beheaded at this time, swaying alone in the wind.
The audience broadcast sounded: "7 people survived in the audience, 5 people from the red team, and 2 people from the blue team. The remaining time is three 10 minutes."
Xiao Huaiyan quietly retreated into the dark.Ou Chuchu and Xizi exchanged and played, it was a real joy.Under their cover, Su Ling also seemed to have noticed some fun.
But he is also hesitating.This is a game, and he can win without this method.After all, compared to long-range sniping, close combat is obviously easier.
Although the long-range laser gun looks novel, it will also attract the attention of the enemy when the collapse effect is triggered, revealing its position.In his almost reflexive fighting genes, it was an unsafe act.
And this gun is noisy.
His hearing is more sensitive than humans.Many subtle sounds will be amplified in his ears, and then amplified again.For example, at this time, he could hear the deafening dull sound of bricks falling hundreds of meters away.
At this time, an earphone was plugged into Su Ling's left ear.Xiao Huaiyan's lazy voice came from the earphones: "Don't worry about the other side, just call casually."
Standing in the shadows, Xiao Huaiyan accidentally rubbed the hair next to Su Ling's ear with his hand holding the earphone.The soft touch still stays at the fingertips.
He just saw Su Ling's slightly frowning eyebrows, so he made such a move without thinking.Fortunately, Su Ling didn't know it.
This is probably part of the contract.
Xiao Huaiyan is not sure.But he was faintly annoyed.
Damn.
Why is the old star global game so realistic that even breathing can be heard in a narrow space.
The next moment, there was a muffled sound in the earphone.The left-wing corridor of the opposite fortress was a mass of ruins.
Xiao Huaiyan was stunned for a long time, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
After coming out of the old star game, Lian Xiao rushed up and hugged his companions almost with tears in his eyes.
"Good job! That shot at the end was so cool, it killed them all! Damn, it was so hard to come to Caiyu City to encounter such a thing. Let me know who likes to play tricks, I will definitely do it Kill him!!!"
Su Ling walked at the end, and when he stopped, he saw a group of people who had just come out of the simulation room not far away.
The leader was wearing sunglasses, and seemed to be of a higher status, with a displeased expression on his face.Beside him was a tall and handsome young man with a submissive and gentle expression.The former pinched the latter's chin, and exchanged a deep kiss in public regardless of the other's slight struggle.
The half-length hair of the man in the back was tied up, and he was obviously a guy who was used as a bait to cheat in the global game.His eyes are light-colored, and his complexion is pale, in stark contrast to the hand holding him.
Su Ling's gaze stayed on his arm.There is a serial number belonging to a humanoid weapon, S01.
As if he noticed Su Ling's gaze, the man wearing sunglasses let go of S01, and walked towards him with an expression of displeasure.The surrounding light is dimmed at appropriate times, which creates the illusion of some kind of spatial distortion.
The faint blue fluorescence flows on both sides of the aisle.
Su Ling raised his head vigilantly, only to see a bolt of lightning swooping towards him.In his vision, the opponent's movements are clearly and clearly revealed.
With a "snap", the light went dark for a second.
Immediately when it came on, a short white light was across S01's neck, almost cutting his skin.
"Who are you?" Su Ling's voice was calm.
"You..." S01 was still in shock, never expecting that he would be kidnapped, but in such a vulnerable situation, he immediately understood the identity of the other party.
At this time, the man wearing sunglasses just now seemed to have seen something new and dangerous, and slowly approached the two of them, regardless of S01's situation.
He looked at Suling slowly, playing with taste: "Interesting little guy. Who is your master, let him talk to me."
The unknown meaning in the words made Su Ling more cautious.What's more, the man gradually approached and raised his finger to touch——
"Su Ling," Xiao Huaiyan's voice came from not far away, interrupting the man's movements, "let go of Young Master Si's friend."
Si Junhe was taken aback for a moment, and took off his sunglasses, displeasure was hidden in his falcon-like eyes, but he tried his best to bear it: "It turns out that he belongs to Young Master Xiao. No wonder."
Xiao Huaiyan didn't answer, his eyes fell on Su Ling's hand.
The light blade threatening S01 disappeared instantly.However, the moment Su Ling let go, a cold light flashed in the corner of his eye, and the killing intent rose again before disappearing.
Su Ling hit S01's wrist, and with a "bang", a short blade fell to the ground.
S01 was obviously not reconciled, and when he was about to fight back, he was stopped by an impatient voice: "...Enough!"
"Yes, Master." S01 replied obediently.
At this moment, another weak voice came: "Don't fight any more. Brother, they are my classmates at Imperial College."
From among the people following Si Junhe, a submissive head poked out.Si Jinyu walked up to Si Junhe cautiously, trying to explain to him.
"I'm sorry, Young Master Xiao, it's all a misunderstanding." Si Junhe didn't look at Si Jinyu, and said with a smile, "I've been too busy recently, no, it's hard to go out for a leisure time, and my brain can't turn around. Offended, please forgive me."
After finishing speaking, he gave S01 a hard push: "It's so ugly in the game, why don't you go and apologize."
S01 immediately bent down respectfully in the direction of Xiao Huaiyan and Su Ling: "I'm very sorry, it was all my fault just now, and it has nothing to do with the master."
Si Junhe grinned and said in a contemptuous tone: "They are humanoid weapons, their brains are not very good, and they will do bad things all day long. I am also incapable of discipline, and I was dizzy by the acquisition case, thinking all the way."
Xiao Huaiyan glanced at him casually, and caught one of the words: "...acquisition?"
Si Jinyu couldn't wait to grab the words: "That's right, my elder brother bought Yushen Company."
His tone was quite proud.After all, Yushen has an extraordinary position in the technological field of the alliance. The successful acquisition of Yushen also means that the Si family, which has always been in the traditional industry, has begun to transform, which is extremely important for the entire family.What's more, it will become the cornerstone for the Si family to enter the real high society.
However, his confident declaration did not get any response.
Two meters away, Xiao Huaiyan grabbed Su Ling's wrist, and saw a wound on the base of his white finger.The oozing blood had just dried up.
"What happened?" Xiao Huaiyan asked in surprise.
Su Ling stood quietly on the spot, seeing Xiao Huaiyan take out a roll of bandage from the medicine box that Xi Zidu sent, and tore off a piece of it neatly.
Before the sterile cotton swab approached, Su Ling tried to break free, but failed.He frowned slightly because of the sting, but didn't resist.
The thin white strips were wrapped around the fingers, earnestly and carefully, as if afraid of touching a wound.
Su Ling was slightly taken aback.For a moment, Xiao Huaiyan in front of him coincided with that figure that always appeared in the middle of the night.But soon, he ignored such thoughts.
A big bow appeared on the back of Su Ling's hand, swaying triumphantly.
"Okay, let's go." Xiao Huaiyan turned sideways as if nothing had happened, and raised his head towards Suling.
"Wait, wait." As soon as Si Jinyu spoke, Si Junhe glared at him.
Xiao Huaiyan paused: "...Is there anything else?"
Si Junhe made a "please" gesture, only to hear Xiao Huaiyan reminded: "Your friend is also injured. Although he recovered quickly, there may be a risk of infection. It is better to deal with it as soon as possible."
Si Jinyu stared closely at the slender figure, and saw him walk to another waiting figure until the group disappeared from sight.
Suddenly, after a muffled sound, S01 fell to the ground clutching his belly.
Si Junhe raised his leg and kicked again, cursing: "Useless things."
S01 lay on the spot, silently enduring it.There was a long and deep gash on his left hand, which was oozing bright red.
After Si Junhe left, S01 reluctantly got up.
"Feiran, wait." Si Jinyu quietly walked to his side, and took out a transparent film.This is the latest temporary medical props from Yushen Company.
Si Jinyu lowered her head and wrapped the film around S01's forearm.After all this was done, he raised his head and smiled at S01: "Feiran, doesn't it hurt now?"
S01 whispered: "Thank you."
He turned around, but didn't see Si Jinyu's sudden dark eyes.
The slightly cold wind howled from afar, and was crushed by the speeding wheels of the convertible sports car, leaving the shaking bus behind.
the weather is nice today.
Su Ling raised his head and saw the stars shining in the clear night sky.
The blizzard was on autopilot, moving fast and stretching the trails of the stars.
A faint low laugh came: "You are not counting the stars, are you?"
Su Ling turned his head sideways and saw Xiao Huaiyan turned over on the almost flat seat and closed his eyes.Such a temperature seems to be very suitable.
A voice as cold as the wind rang in my ears: "At that time, in the opera house, what were you thinking when you ran towards me. When it was so dangerous, weren't you afraid of death?"
Su Ling shook his head, looking at the black outline of the mountains, tiredness welled up.
But doubts from two days ago made him ask, "Then why did you go in?"
At that time, amid such chaotic hijacking, Xiao Huaiyan was just an ordinary, fragile human being.
The wind was silent for two seconds.
Xiao Huaiyan muttered in a muffled voice, "It's not because of you."
Under Su Ling's watchful eyes, Xiao Huaiyan half-closed his eyes, spread the book to cover his face, and said in a casual tone, "As your master, of course you have to clean up the mess, otherwise I will lose face."
Su Ling nodded his head half-understood, and didn't ask any more questions.
Xiao Huaiyan breathed a sigh of relief, flattened the seat, and adjusted a comfortable sleeping position.The temperature is suitable, and there is only the sound of wind between heaven and earth.
Not long after, the breathing under the book became steady.
Su Ling touched the button next to the seat and learned to level the back of the seat.
He lay quietly next to Xiao Huaiyan, looking at those distant, bright stars.
As if within reach.
After a while, Xiao Huaiyan opened his eyes and found that Su Ling had fallen asleep.
He just had a short dream, dreaming of the moment when Su Ling said "Leave together".Many people told him "you go first" or "you don't go", but it was the first time someone said "together" to him.
This word is too firm, as if nothing is more important than this.
But at the end of the dream, he was the only one standing in the vast ruins.The feeling of helplessness was so real that he couldn't breathe.
It's like going back to a certain time when I was a child.
Seeing Su Ling again at this time, he was suddenly caught by a strange feeling that welled up in his heart.It was a hazy natural sense of security, as if no matter what happened, Su Ling would be by his side.
Absolutely, will not leave.
...Really not?
Xiao Huaiyan stared at his side face for a while, feeling that his thoughts were ridiculous.He sneered, but pressed the touch button of the speed controller on the console.
The surrounding mountains suddenly slowed down.
The starry sky is slow.
The wind also slowed down.
The author has something to say:
Xiao Xiao: My heart is also in a mess.
