MTL - Survivor 01 [Unlimited]-Chapter 22 Games Lobby
Ye Fei's voice was not too loud, just enough for all the surrounding players to hear.
When he asked this sentence, the expressions on the faces of the players standing next to him waiting for the battle of the century were a little subtle.
The Esther was also dumbfounded, he suspected that he had heard it wrong.
He looked at Ye Fei, then turned his head to look at Jian Lingxi, but just in time to find his boss curled his lips into a chuckle.
The Esther shuddered.
In fact, he has always known that his boss is different from ordinary people.
Others put on ugly faces when they were angry or unhappy, but Jian Lingxi was the opposite, he would smile when he was not in a very happy mood. Of course, this is what Esther has summed up after being with him for so long.
To put it simply, the boss usually doesn't smile, but the better the smile, the more fierce the kill.
Now this level...
Esther lit a candle in her heart for the person surnamed Ye opposite.
He waited for the boss to pick up the blood moon scythe to get the head of the opposite dog, but he didn't wait for Jian Lingxi to make any move for a long time.
Even Esther watched the person surnamed Ye ask the direction of the entertainment area, and everyone was going there, but Jian Lingxi didn't respond.
Esther blinked, and tentatively asked:
"Boss, don't you want to chase?"
Jian Lingxi did not answer.
He just stared at the person on the other side through a translucent light screen.
There was a slight smile in his golden eyes, and he followed the figure of the man until he disappeared in the passageway of the entertainment area before looking away.
Jian Lingxi stretched out her hand to pick up the sickle, the corners of her lips smiled slightly, and she was only able to answer Esther's question when she lowered her eyes:
"Chase."
Esther suddenly realized.
understood!
It's still a kind old man who wants to let the starving ghost have enough to eat before killing him!
Three small roads extend from the east, west, and south sides of the central square. The south side is the game log-out channel, the west side is the game login channel, and the east side leads to the entertainment area of the game hall.
Different from the retro style of the central square, the entertainment area can be regarded as carrying out the word "entertainment" to the end.
There is nothingness and darkness overhead, but unlike the dimness of the central square, the entertainment area is like a city that never sleeps. The street is illuminated by the fancy light signs hung on the buildings and various lights on the roadside.
Ye Fei glanced roughly and found that restaurants, bars, shops and hotels were all available.
He whistled and commented:
"Isn't this more fun than the Garden of Eden?"
Zhou Zhengning curled his lips when he heard this:
"It's not fun without points. For example, I only get four to five thousand points for winning a game, which is enough to stay in the game lobby for three days, and it's still on the premise of saving money."
"Oh my God, poor pudding." Ye Fei rubbed his head like coaxing a child:
"Come on, Teacher Ye treats you to a good meal."
Ye Fei randomly found a shop in the neighborhood that looked good.
There are no other customers in this store except them, and the order is all self-service. Ye Fei sat down, swipe the menu twice, and ticked off a few side dishes of porridge.
"?"
Qin Jing originally wanted to say that if you are so stingy, you can actually choose not to invite, but then she felt that this is not Ye Fei's style at all. After all, this person can eat seven pies, three buns and five sausages in one morning.
Things must not be simple.
Sure enough, in the next second, Mrs. Ye smartly made a negative election.
Clear porridge and pickles are excluded, and the rest is to confirm the order and checkout, all in one go.
The intelligent robotic arm began to serve dishes one by one along the slide rail, and Qin Jing's expression froze.
She looked at Ye Fei's unclosed consumption bill:
"Total: 9800"
"Ye Fei, what kind of family do you spend points like this?"
"A big family." Ye Fei put a chicken leg into the bowl, chatting nonsense with Qin Jing:
"There used to be a saying like this, 'If you have wine today, you will be drunk today'. It means that you can eat and play as much as you can today, and worry about tomorrow's things. You see, you always think about the future, In case you die tomorrow, before you die, think about the one chicken leg that you ate less today to save money, it’s thanks to you.”
"..." Qin Jing was rendered speechless by his nonsense:
"Then I really appreciate you."
"No thanks."
Ye Fei took time out of her busy schedule to give her a thumbs up.
Ye Fei rounded up and ordered all the dishes on the menu. The robotic arm in the restaurant was never idle, stacking dishes one by one, and finally even filled the two tables behind them.
Ye Fei and Zhou Zhengning were like two starving ghosts, eating hard from beginning to end. Qin Jing sat across from the two of them, thinking every second why she was fooling around with these two people here.
After a while, she remembered something serious, so she put down her chopsticks and asked:
"Hey, what's your relationship with that Jian Lingxi?"
Zhou Zhengning came back to his senses when he heard this, he swallowed with difficulty and almost choked:
"Yeah, yeah, I just saw Boss Jane's scythe. He seems to be opposite the central light screen. I thought he was here to trouble you. I was so scared that I didn't feel like it."
"Huh? Jian Lingxi? Who is it?"
Ye Fei was at a loss.
"Oh, Mr. Ye, you forgot again. I told you, Thanatos was the former team leader."
"Oh oh oh, spy chief." Ye Fei remembered after saying this.
He shrugged and didn't pay much attention:
"I don't even know him, why is he bothering me?"
"I don't know. I just saw Jian Lingxi with his scythe and a chair next to him. I guess I've been waiting for a while. The people next to me are probably waiting to watch the excitement, otherwise the central square Where did so many idle people come from? They are still staring at you."
Qin Jing tapped on the table with her fingers.
Ye Fei tried hard to recall:
"I thought my report was too arrogant."
Qin Jing rolled her eyes and said nothing.
But being mentioned by the two of them, Ye Fei remembered another thing.
He elbowed Zhou Zhengning:
"Pudin, I remember you said before, that Jane... uh, the spy chief, is not a supernatural being?"
"Yeah, he's not."
"Then why is he here?"
"I don't know, the gossip of the hive is not well-informed at all, but after I entered the game, I heard that it seems to be because he betrayed or something... Sister Qin, do you know?"
"I've heard it." Qin Jing frowned, and reconfirmed with Ye Fei before explaining:
"You really don't know Jian Lingxi?"
"Hey, where did I meet, Miss Gao, the chief spy of the generation who didn't deal with me was called Yan Jin. When this little friend Jian took office, I had already been arrested for experimentation. He couldn't go to Meet me in the underground lab."
Ye Fei really didn't understand why she was so obsessed with this.
"Okay." Qin Jing didn't understand either.
She frowned:
"Jian Lingxi is indeed not a supernatural person, but this does not conflict with this person's incredible strength. Just look at his ranking."
"Huh? He is good at fighting? Can he fight as well as you?"
Ye Fei became a little interested.
"Not only." Qin Jing looked a little dignified:
"He is one of the most successful reformers in the White Tower, codenamed 'King Snake'"
"Reform people?" Ye Fei raised her eyebrows slightly:
"what is that?"
A trace of disgust flashed in Qin Jing's eyes:
"It's the **** project launched by the White Tower after you were driven underground. It extracts the characteristics of animals infected with α into humans, and tries to develop some new abilities."
"Oh..." Ye Fei nodded:
"Then why do you think I'll know him?"
"This, because there is a saying that Jian Lingxi's downfall has a lot to do with you. Anyway, many people who know the inside story say so. They all think that you two have enmity, and I don't know why." Qin Jing shrugged. shrug.
"Maybe the hatred of their death team is hereditary, and the new team leader must inherit the trait of 'hating Ye Fei' when he takes office." Ye Fei didn't pay much attention.
However, he paused, and suddenly chuckled:
"I found out that you seem to know a lot about the White Tower?"
Qin Jing's movements were indiscernible.
She snorted softly:
"I want you to take care of it."
Ye Fei ordered three tables full of dishes for the three of them to eat for four hours. Zhou Zhengning went out clutching his stomach, and Qin Jing's expression was not very good.
In the end, those two left, and only Ye Fei stayed till the end.
He ate very slowly and sat alone by the floor-to-ceiling windows for a long time.
Ye Fei didn't know how long it had passed. He stayed in the dark for five years, without day and night every day, and he had no concept of time.
After coming out of the restaurant, he walked around the surrounding area by himself, and found that this place is the same as the outside world, the busiest place is always the place of entertainment.
Ye Fei entered the busiest bar at home, and sat down by the wall.
The atmosphere here is very good, young people are reveling on the dance floor, and the colored lights render everything into fascinating colors.
Probably because the people gathered here are all guys who are trying to survive in the game, facing an uncertain tomorrow and future, so even the atmosphere is stained with a bit of desperate madness.
Most of the people here have just come out of the game, or are about to enter a new round of the game. No one knows how long they can live, so they all have the mentality of enjoying themselves in time.
Ye Fei sat in the corner, watched men and women embrace each other, listened to the loud music, and finally leaned back in the chair and closed her eyes.
Unlike Qin Jing and the others who were relaxed when they were together, Ye Fei didn't like to smile very much when he was alone. In addition, he had a gloomy temperament on his body, which made the surrounding atmosphere a little lonely, making him look like a This place is out of place.
Ye Fei ordered a glass of wine and bought a pack of cigarettes. Two long-lost flavors came to his tongue, making him dizzy.
Although Ye Fei always thought Zhou Zhengning was noisy, in fact, he sometimes liked this noisy environment.
After all, it would give him a clear sense that he was alive, in this world, and not somewhere else.
Ye Fei sat by the wall for a while, then sleepiness came to his mind, he didn't leave, just fell asleep lying on the table like that.
The music in my ear was very dry, and the screams and cheers of the players were also very loud, but Ye Fei's sleep was more peaceful than ever before.
He rested his arms on his pillow, and in his sleep, he felt vaguely as if someone had covered his body with a piece of clothing, and then, a very faint scent of platycodon flowers dispelled the smell of tobacco and alcohol in the room.
Ye Fei originally wanted to wake up, but after smelling the smell, he felt inexplicably relieved, and struggled to fall deeper into the dream.
Ye Fei didn't know how long she slept.
In short, when he woke up, his arms were numb from his own pillow, and his neck was also a little sore. He sat up while rubbing the back of his neck, and the coat he was wearing slipped down as he moved.
Ye Fei caught it before it fell, and he glanced at it, it was a red windbreaker.
He found that there was an extra person beside him at some point.
It was a young man, he was wearing a high-necked black top, his hair was a little long and **** at the back of his head. At this moment, he was looking up at the carnival on the dance floor, his eyelashes, pupils, and even the smooth and delicate side face were dyed with a chaotic light.
Ye Fei folded her clothes and handed them to him:
"Is this yours?"
The man froze for a moment, looked sideways at Ye Fei, then lowered his eyes slightly, avoiding his sight.
Only then did Ye Fei realize that this guy had beautiful peach blossom eyes.
"Yeah." The man took the coat and smiled at Ye Fei.
Ye Fei looked past him and looked behind him.
Most of the people in this bar were on the dance floor, and there were many empty seats around, at least there were quite a few around him. But this guy just sat at his table.
"Thank you for the coat."
Ye Fei thanked him, lying on the table lazily, looked at him with his head propped up, and asked directly:
"So, little mister, what can I do for you?"
"En." Hearing this address, the man raised his eyebrows slightly.
Afterwards, he relaxed his sitting posture, leaned back on the back of the chair, looked at Ye Fei, and explained:
"I came here originally to ask, 'Can I buy you a drink'?"
His voice was nice, with a slight smile, but it was a little hard to hear because it was mixed with the noisy background sound of the bar.
Ye Fei leaned towards him subconsciously:
"Then what?"
"Then, I found out that the person I wanted to hire was sleeping soundly."
The man spoke halfway, seeing Ye Fei's expression trying to hear clearly, he couldn't help laughing. The corners of his lips curled up, exposing the side pointed canine teeth.
He supported the soft surface of the seat with his hands, leaned towards Ye Fei, and stopped not far from his ear.
Ye Fei was taken aback for this person's approach, but did not avoid it.
The next moment, he heard the man's voice clearly.
He said:
"I don't want to disturb him. It seems good to sleep with him for a while."
