MTL - Return of the Dead [Holo]-Chapter 166

A person probably has to make countless choices in his life, big and small, all different, but every choice will push people to the established destiny,

Lu Ning was no exception, and he didn't know what choice he had made so far, but there had never been a choice that was as tangled and painful as it is now.

Now he seems to be standing in a small station in a wild suburb, surrounded by open fields, deep in the night and the wind is high, all he can hear is the howling on the wilderness of fate, Lu Ning can't tell the truth What kind of monster is dormant under the wind, he only knows that in front of him is a mottled wooden door.

His hand was on the handle, and he was still hesitating whether to turn the door to the left or the right.

Is there a cliff behind the door, or a flat passage?

If possible, Lu Ning would like to ask fate in advance, even if it is cheating, he really wants to know what will his choice bring? Destiny is heading for a new fork, or darkness.

Swallowing, Lu Ning didn't feel the suffocation of being stuck in the neck, but Mo Ran's movements were still very oppressive. He had never believed someone who said he was going to kill him like this.

"What would happen if I chose to live?" At this moment, Lu Ning's brain seemed to have completely shut down. Lu Ning had lost even the diction of the language.

Mo Ran tilted her head, squinted her eyes, and seemed to be thinking about Lu Ning's question, but after a pause for a few seconds, she said with a noncommittal affirmation: "You made a mistake, I only gave Your right to choose does not give you the right to ask me."

Having said that, Mo Ran even frowned, and said impatiently: "Don't test my patience, I'll give you another three seconds, if you still can't make a choice, then you don't have to make a choice."

After all, Mo Ran didn't even care what Lu Ning was thinking, and started counting directly.

"one…"

Lu Ning is a fool, that refers to his behavior and habits, but in the final analysis, he is a law-abiding and not very courageous person. The most daring thing he did in his life was probably to deal with Mo Ran just now. When the strength was misjudged, I tried to command all the guards to fight Mo Ran to the death, but the result...

The so-called boom, then decline

If Lu Ning finally won the battle against Mo Ran just now, then things are definitely not like this now, he might not make a choice so quickly, no, it should be said, if Lu Ning had just fought against Mo Ran If he wins in the end, Mo Ran will be under control now.

Just like what I said just now, fate is made up of such choices one after another. It is precisely because the boldness of the last time did not get the corresponding victory and encouragement, and now Lu Ning also does not have the courage to challenge Mo Ran.

Although Mo Ran said that he was given time to think about three numbers, he still made a choice when Mo Ran counted the first number.

It doesn't matter whether he betrayed mankind, betrayed the research institute, or even said he has no faith. In short, for Lu Ning now, these are not the most important things. The most important thing is that he wants to live.

A person's death may become a hero and a monument, but there is no future. Without a future, there will be no infinite possibilities, and there will be no change. He is just dead, and his life is just stopped. And his story will no longer be eulogized and remembered, he will be buried in the soil, and will eventually be forgotten.

Just like all the people lying in a pool of blood right now.

Lu Ning didn't want this, he just wanted to live.

If there is no choice, then he will not have these emotions and greed.

"Agree! I agree!"

Lu Ning's answer was very hasty, as if he was afraid that Mo Ran would change his mind if he spoke too slowly, and Mo Ran smiled meaningfully after he finished speaking.

Probably this smile was too deep, and Lu Ning even felt a kind of heartbeat that he had never felt before. Unfortunately, Mo Ran didn't give Lu Ning too much time to savor this kind of heartbeat, because it only took two to three seconds. A few minutes later, Lu Ning noticed a ray of light rising from Mo Ran's hand and falling directly on him.

Then, he heard a very unfamiliar system voice: "Mo Ran is going to appoint you as an NPC, do you agree?"

Whether it was because of the system sound or the choice of "NPC", Lu Ning's eyes widened, and he looked at Mo Ran in disbelief.

Lu Ning knows a little bit about how the player becomes an NPC, but that requires a two-way choice between the system and the player, and Lu Ning has always believed that the act of choosing an NPC is at least a part of the system.

Obviously, she is definitely not a system, she is just an ordinary player, but can players also grant other players to become NPCs?

No, no, the point now is whether I should agree to such a choice or not? Does he want to be an NPC? From the bottom of his heart, Lu Ning didn't want to be an NPC. He didn't want to be engaged in the same fixed job. He still had blood boiling in his body. He wanted to go to the battlefield, so he never considered becoming an NPC at that time. NPC, but now...

Will the rejection at that time still come sooner or later?

Lu Ning raised his eyes and looked at Mo Ran, but Mo Ran's eyes were so calm that there was no spark, it seemed that any choice Lu Ning made would not surprise her.

This is indeed the case, Lu Ning analyzed clearly.

Why did Mo Ran have to let herself choose? Probably because he has an advantage that she can use, but it is obviously impossible for him to use his advantage as a weapon to attack or blackmail Mo Ran. Mo Ran is obviously a person who does not accept threats. If this kind of advantage threatens Mo Ran, then the biggest possibility is not victory, but that he will become a corpse on the ground.

Lu Ning swallowed, and asked softly, "Can I still fight as an NPC?"

But Mo Ran laughed as if he heard something from the Arabian Nights: "Fight? Who do you want to fight? The dead?"

Lu Ning immediately shut his mouth tightly, joking, how could such nonsense be said?

"Agree." Lu Ning sighed slightly.

After obtaining Lu Ning's consent, the light in Mo Ran's hand slowly surrounded him, and finally turned into a thin mist and stained his body. After that, Lu Ning heard the system voice Tell him again, he opened the NPC panel.

To be honest, Lu Ning seldom hears the system sound. If there is no level restriction, he has almost forgotten that it is still a game, especially when the system sound appears in his ears. Ning felt somewhat disobedient.

However, even so, Lu Ning opened his own NPC panel following the guidance of the system sound.

Although Lu Ning wasn't an NPC and didn't want to be an NPC, it didn't mean he didn't understand the NPC panel, especially since Li Ying was an NPC, he naturally knew the panel clearly.

However, after opening his panel,

The general NPC panel can be roughly divided into three sections. The first section is the task panel, which mainly accepts tasks from the system. After completing them, there will be experience and some rewards. If the NPC wants to improve itself, this It is a very important method.

The second section is my character panel, which is similar to players, but in the NPC character panel, there is a line that ordinary players do not have, that is professionalism, under normal circumstances, only players who have reached a certain level of professionalism have it. It is possible to become an NPC, and the NPC's profession is also graded. This grade is directly linked to the height of the NPC.

To put it simply, if a doctor becomes an NPC, he will only be a junior NPC at first, but if he performs a difficult operation, or saves a very serious patient, through systematic evaluation, these will become Experience of professional value, when the experience of professional value accumulates to a certain level, it can be upgraded to an intermediate NPC.

The higher the NPC's professional level, the more resources he can enjoy, and he can get more and better tasks from the system.

In addition, the third section is for players. Junior NPCs can only teach players some basic skills or sell some goods, and occasionally issue tasks. However, the higher the level of NPCs, the more they can do. It is even possible to release elite-level or epic-level tasks.

But besides these three items, Lu Ning's NPC panel also has a very special section called superior NPC, and in this, he can only see one person, that is Mo Ran.

When he saw this name, Lu Ning said that it was impossible not to be shocked. He stared at Mo Ran in front of him with wide eyes, and couldn't believe that the dead person in front of him was actually an NPC?

Under normal circumstances, shouldn't all NPCs be huddled in the city, can't they run around in a fixed place? So why is Mo Ran so special? She even killed all directions in Tiandu City, this... is this possible?

Or is it that humans have been doing it for a long time, and finally they are fighting an NPC? Where does this make sense?

Of course, for Lu Ning, what surprised him the most on the entire NPC panel, but what surprised him the most was the race column, where two words were written in bright red: Dead.

Can humans also become NPCs of the dead? And why is Mo Ran also an NPC? She doesn't act like an NPC. Also, why can Mo Ran let

For a moment, countless questions filled Lu Ning's mind like thousands of horses galloping on the grassland. The noise made him unable to figure out any clues. But at this moment, he suddenly heard Mo Ran beside him. Said, "Very well, now tell me, where are the rest of the dead held?"

Without waiting for Lu Ning to react, he heard the system tone again: "Your superior NPC has issued a mission, would you like to accept it?"

this…

Even Lu Ning, whose IQ was over 150, was completely confused by such an operation at this time. Did Mo Ran tell him that the superior NPC issued a mission? ?

The system sound is quite humane. Just when Lu Ning was stunned and didn't know how to choose, he heard the system sound and began to explain: "You can choose to accept or refuse the task issued by the superior NPC, but you need to The reminder is that when you choose to accept, you can get considerable experience through the satisfaction of the superior NPC after completing the task, which is of great benefit to improving the level of the NPC."

"Will there be any punishment if you choose to refuse?"

"There will be no punishment for choosing to refuse, but it may affect your superior NPC's evaluation of you. If your evaluation is too low, your superior NPC may choose to exile."

"Exile?" As a novice NPC, Lu Ning was obviously not very clear about these things.

"Exile probably means death."

That is to say, even if he became an NPC, his own life was still hanging by a thread. It was up to Mo Ran that he wanted to live, or how long he wanted to live.

Although he had just become an NPC of the dead family, Lu Ning was not so quick to change his identity. Subconsciously, he closed his mouth and didn't want to answer Mo Ran's question.

It's a pity that such refusal has never been a problem in Mo Ran's eyes. She grabbed Lu Ning directly, slammed him **** the ground, raised her foot and stepped on the cheek he was trying to raise, condescending Looking at Lu Ning, he said, "My patience is limited, don't try to test my patience."

After all, she stepped on Lu Ning's head, stepped over his body and walked towards Bai Yuanshan.

Bai Yuanshan didn't know whether it was because he was too angry after seeing Lu Ning's choice or because he was really tortured by the pain and had no strength. He lay on the ground weakly and moaned, but after seeing Mo Ran walk in, he suddenly broke out

"He's dying." Just as Mo Ran was looking at Bai Yuanshan, Lu Ning had stood up from the ground and followed Mo Ran obediently. He was a bit confused after cramming in too many things, but he came to his senses, and then, he immediately made the most correct choice for him.

Mo Ran turned her face and glanced at Lu Ning. She was not surprised by his obedience and initiative now. She even raised her hand to hold the handle of the long white blade and pulled it out without any politeness. Immediately, blood Accompanied by Bai Yuanshan's howl, the blood flowed out, but the blood did not spurt like a fountain.

"Are you going to die?" Mo Ran held the long blade in his hand, wiped the blood-stained blade on Bai Yuanshan's clothes, and responded to Lu Ning indifferently.

"He lost too much blood." Bai Yuanshan raised his eyes to look at Lu Ning standing on Mo Ran, and became even more angry. He was shaking all over his body as if he was sifting chaff. He pointed at Lu Ning and shouted ahhh with.

Lu Ning looked at Bai Yuanshan with lowered eyelashes, with mixed feelings in his heart. Even though Bai Yuanshan was jealous of him and pushed him out and oppressed him from time to time in the entire laboratory, he was a teacher after all, and he had taught him everything he had, and he had been Careful guidance, Tiandijun, relatives and teachers are not platooned in vain. Looking at the tortured Bai Yuanshan and Lu Ning at this moment, he only feels extremely uncomfortable in his heart. He even wished that he was the one who fell to the ground in such pain.

He clenched his hands tightly, and his nails were deeply imprinted into his palms. Looking at Bai Yuanshan's crazy, angry, desperate and even pleading eyes, his throat seemed to harden, and he swallowed. Lu Ning turned his head to Mo Ran and begged in a low voice, "Give him a good time."

Mo Ran raised her eyebrows, and the smile on her lips was a little playful: "I want to teach you something."

Lu Ning was stunned for a moment, wondering why Mo Ran suddenly mentioned this, and before he could speak, he saw Mo Ran bend down, pinch Bai Yuanshan's jaw open, and then threw a red pill into his mouth Then, he squeezed Bai Yuanshan's mouth tightly, letting him swallow the pill before letting go.

After Bai Yuanshan took the pill, his body felt

It didn't look like she was going to die at all, but she seemed to be healthy again. Mo Ran seemed very satisfied with the effect. She straightened her body, grasped the double blades in her hands again, and said, "Don't try to make decisions for others , especially me."

As he said that, Mo Ran had turned his head to look at Lu Ning. Although Lu Ning was taller than her, he felt a sense of oppression and suffocation at this moment. He stared at Mo Ran closely, subconsciously because of nervousness. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"Do you love him? It's your business to make him happy, but it has nothing to do with me. If you want me to agree, you can ask me, but you can't ask me, because I am the one who controls life and death."

Mo Ran's voice was very soft, and was almost completely overwhelmed in the corridor where the alarm bells kept ringing, but it fell on Lu Ning's ears like a bolt from the blue. With his lips parted, he looked at Mo Ran. It took several seconds before she lowered her head, and said in a low voice: "Yes."

"Take him to find the place where the dead are held." Mo Ran said as she walked along the corridor with blood towards the interior of the building. Her footsteps were so fast that she disappeared before Lu Ning asked clearly. .

Sighing, Lu Ning turned his head and planned to help Bai Yuanshan, but he found that Bai Yuanshan, who was still lying on the ground dying, had stood up at some point, and was holding a sharp long spear in his hand. The knife was facing him with hatred.

Suddenly, Lu Ning finally realized that from now on, this was all the test Mo Ran left him.

Bai Yuanshan couldn't speak, but it didn't stop him from gesticulating and gesticulating in dumb words: "Traitor of mankind! I'm going to kill you!"

Lu Ning blinked, and suddenly laughed...

Mo Ran was running through the intricate corridors. She didn't have to look for guards or researchers pouring into the institute from all directions. No matter whether they were holding weapons or bare hands, they couldn't even see the running Mo Ran clearly. No matter what it looked like, he fell to the ground and died.

As more and more people fell on the ground, Mo Ran finally stopped when he heard the piercing siren, but then came a woman's voice: "The target is now on channel 356 of Block A, please Guards stop

"The target is now on channel 117 of Block A, please guard nearby to intercept it!"

"The target is now on Channel 72 of B and is running towards Channel 74. Please guard nearby to intercept it!"

"Please pay attention! Please pay attention! The target level is seven, the combat power is S-level, it is extremely dangerous, please block the guards to form a team,! Repeat again! The target level is seven, the combat power is S-level, extremely dangerous, please block the guards to form a team Go!"

…

While dealing with the guards who kept rushing over, Mo Ran raised her head towards the ceiling to look for the existence of the camera. This was not a difficult task. Whenever she found a camera, she would throw off the iron on her wrist without thinking. Chain, waved directly towards those cameras.

There were only a few "pops", and wherever the iron chain went, the cameras were all shattered into pieces.

Li Ying in the monitoring room kept adjusting the cameras, continuously broadcasting Mo Ran's location into the radio, and it was her seamless broadcast that almost kept Mo Ran from stopping.

But when she was still preparing to continue broadcasting, she found that the screen she was staring at suddenly went black. Li Ying immediately realized that the camera was destroyed by Mo Ran, but she was not in a hurry. During the construction, almost all the cameras that human beings can keep were installed, even if there were not a thousand, there were 800. If Mo Ran wanted to rely on destroying the cameras to avoid tracking, it would be a cannibalism. Dream.

Immediately, Li Ying immediately started mobilizing and turning on the backup camera, but when she was surprised, after she turned on the backup camera, either a black screen appeared, or Mo Ran could not be found, as if the screen was black on the monitor. Within ten seconds, Mo Ran disappeared from the world, and she could no longer find her trace.

Li Ying quickly and constantly adjusted the cameras, but the results did not change. The living person seemed to have disappeared under her nose.

"How is it possible... disappeared?" Li Ying only felt that her heart was on fire, her fingers kept flicking on the control panel, and she kept mumbling anxiously.

The air in the monitoring room seemed to freeze, and there was only the sound of clicking buttons in the whole room. At this moment, the door of the monitoring room was suddenly opened, and the huge sound startled Li Ying , almost jumped up, she quickly turned her head and looked towards the door...
