Tu Xiao and A Li walked into the depths of the fantasy forest along the stream. Along the way, they found many traces of fighting and living. None of them are experts in wild survival, so it is impossible to tell how many people left these traces. However, based on the terrifying number of beast corpses left at the scene that had been bitten to pieces by unknown creatures, it can be inferred that what they are following is definitely a professional combat team.

Thinking that it is possible to see their large army of gamers ahead, Tu Xiao was so excited that his steps became much lighter.

Ever since the big devil announced the "ten-day period", his life has become sad. Originally, he could work in a ramen shop to earn some food and lodging expenses. Then a "purging" team suddenly appeared in the town and began to deal with All shops and hotels that house monsters from other places are under strict investigation. In order to avoid trouble, the hotel owner and ramen shop owner Ban Qiqi refused him. He had no food or shelter. He could only hope to find Mr. Fox, who is also a player, to seek asylum.

But I don't know if Mr. Fox is too busy to take care of himself, he has not been able to contact the other party, and when he was looking for Mr. Fox, a basilisk suddenly came to him and told him that he had seen Mr. Fox and knew where he had gone.

Tu Xiao didn't believe it at first, but when the basilisk accurately described the image of Mr. Fox, he no longer doubted it, and followed the basilisk directly to the entrance of the fantasy forest.

For some reason, there are guards set up here, and there are still many monsters who are pulling fence nets for the forest along the periphery of the square.

The basilisk said that the "blasphemer" circulating in the town was a vixen. He did something disrespectful to the python god, and the mayor ordered the whole town to chase him down. In a panic, he fled into the forest Here, there is also a vampire who escapes with him.

Tu Xiao had never heard of vampires, so he guessed it might be a new player, so he wanted to enter the forest to find the team.

The basilisk used to hunt in the forest before, and knew a secret entrance, so he helped Tu Xiao avoid the guards and entered the Forbidden Forest together.

During the two days of walking together, Tu Xiao knew the name of the basilisk. His name is A Li, he is an orphan, he was adopted by the old owner of the bun shop, and he has not been accepted by the townspeople because of his appearance, the only female monster who does not dislike him and approaches him is "Xiaomei", a foreigner. The female rabbit monster came. But just two days ago, a group of monsters broke into his house, injured him, and took Xiaomei away. When he woke up and chased him out, the group of monsters had disappeared. He searched everywhere, but Still can't find any news of Xiaomei. There is an ancient tradition in the town to deal with criminals, which is to throw the guilty monster into the psychedelic forest to fend for himself. He suspects that Xiaomei has also been thrown into the forest. He must find her and protect her.

Although Tu Xiao knew that the other party was probably not telling the truth, because the rabbit described by Ah Li was Xiaomei, who was clearly the female player that Mr. Fox had mentioned to him, but he was still moved by the story told by the other party. So I made one now. He said that Mr. Fox said his half-brother, he searched all the way for his brother's news and found this place, just to fulfill his father's long-cherished wish and bring his brother home to inherit the family business. , They were forced to separate again, life and death unknown. Speaking of the sad place, I also shed two tears that were quite appropriate for the occasion.

After hearing Tu Xiao's story, A Li also looked moved. The two monsters comforted each other and became confidants. They were inseparable from each other and talked about almost everything—of course, only almost.

They walked along the route of Qian Erbai and Xia Changdian, so they naturally saw the black-walled red-roofed hut at the end of the forest, and also saw the female rabbit monster in the tunnel, the two little minions and the remnants of those monster experiments Taste.

Tu Xiao's three views were greatly shaken, and he trembled all over with anger from what Bi Hu and the female monster Rabbit had told him, and he wished he could rush to the laboratory immediately to overthrow the entire underground magic cave.

Ah Li fell into silence, looking at those mobs who also dragged their snake tails but were raised like puppies, his eyes were icy cold. He didn't want to believe what Bi Hu said, because it meant that he had been being used all the time, even feeding the murderer who killed his parents with his own blood. But in the deepest part of the memory he thought he had long forgotten, he saw some pictures faintly - a room so white and glowing, huge glass windows, all kinds of scary needle knives, and the whole body wrapped in blue clothes My big monsters...

Childhood is very far away, and my memory is blurred, but it doesn't mean it's gone.

His pupils stood upright, and he grabbed Bi Hu's neck, trying to kill this monster who confuses the public. Tu Xiao stopped him and said, "Just go to the laboratory and see if it's true or not."

The Rabbit had no expression on her face, her mouth was stained with blood, but she couldn't see any wounds all over her body. She stood up and wanted to send Tu Xiao and the others away. Tu Xiao asked the rabbit if he wanted to go back together for revenge, shook his head, said he didn't want to go back, and then closed the door.

The octopus monster suddenly struggled desperately. There were only two tentacles left on his body. He was dying and begged Tu Xiao and the two to take him away. He said that the rabbit was a monster that eats monsters. Strange, bit off his tentacles abruptly, didn't eat after taking the food back, just ate his tentacles raw in front of him like that, even forced him to eat together, he was about to be tortured crazy.

Tu Xiao was a little nauseated, but he didn't feel pity for the octopus monster, but A Li looked at the rabbit monster one more time, with a slightly complicated look in his eyes.

In the end, they did not intervene in the rabbit monster's revenge against the octopus monster, and left the hut silently, walking towards the laboratory along the route provided by the octopus monster. After walking for a while, Tu Xiao looked back, the black hut seemed to be shrouded in a layer of thick smoke, smoldering all the hatred and hatred in this world.

Ah Li was silent all the way, and his footsteps became slower the closer he got to the laboratory. The noisy construction site seemed to be exuding great coercion. Every step he took, he would undergo thousands of tortures in his heart——Do you really want to Want to know the truth? Are you willing to lose everything you have right now?

He flinched. He stood at the entrance, refusing to take another step.

Tu Xiao didn't force it, they were not in the same way, and they had different goals from the beginning, not to mention that A Li was a victim of this experiment, and compared with those "failures", he had indeed enjoyed the experience for twenty years. The benefits of power and desire, and at the same time, under the subtle influence of the mayor, he has done a lot of bad things - such as killing monsters, the three views are almost all crooked. At this time, just refusing to go with him instead of violently hurting others has been exhausted All he had left was his conscience.

Tu Xiao bid farewell to Ah Li and entered the construction site alone. Ah Li stood there for a while, then turned around and left the forest along the same path.

When Tu Xiao was leaving the passageway dedicated to laboratory staff, the guard at the door saw that he was a complete stranger, so they stopped him and asked him his identity. Bai came out to help him out, introduced him as an assistant specially recruited by the above, and then registered a name casually and led him in.

Tu Xiao didn't say a word, he wasn't sure about the identity of this monster whose whole body including the head was wrapped in blue overalls, until he followed Qian Erbai all the way into the physical examination area, he pretended to ask: "You Do you know Mr. Fox? Are you a player too?"

Qian Erbai looked back at him, did not answer, just threw him a protective suit for him to put on, and then took him to go around each base Area. Seeing that Tu Xiao's face was getting greener, Qian Erbai led him to a corner, and asked, "How do you feel?"

Tu Xiao took off his hood, ran to the corner and retched, and it took him a while to recover. His eyes were red, his fists were clenched tightly, and the spikes all over his body were faintly showing signs of bursting out. He said: "It's terrible, it's hell! They're beasts! We must stop them and let their crimes be punished!"

Seeing his righteous indignation, Qian Erbai said noncommittally: "There may be some danger in the next few days. If you are afraid, I can send you away today."

But Tu Xiao shook his head resolutely, saying that he is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death. No matter what plan Qian Erbai and the others have, and no matter how dangerous the plan is, he wants to participate in it and do his part, even if it's just such trivial things as passing on a message or running an errand.

Qian Erbai admired his courage and sense of justice, but he didn't approve of his blind bravery. He didn't have an accurate understanding of his own strength, and he wanted to throw his head and blood to make a success just because of his passion. For a great cause, that is not to sacrifice one's life for righteousness, but to sacrifice in vain.

Tu Xiao was poured cold water, but it didn't dampen his enthusiasm. After calming down, he asked Qian Erbai if he had a plan. Qian Erbai didn't say anything specific, but just asked him how Ma Philosophy was doing.

Thinking that one day he would be able to use the ideas and theories he had learned to guide or even lead a revolution, Tu Xiao was excited. He forced himself to calm down, accepted the task with a solemn face, pushed the cart, and checked the body of the "volunteer" under the pretext of After recovering the situation, I went to chat with the experimental subjects in the living area.

Seeing his seriousness, Qian Erbai felt amused. In fact, he didn't expect Tu Xiao to use these five days to persuade many victims to stand up and resist, but at least let them realize that they are not alone and helpless. In fact, there is still another way to go, and this is the best and greatest achievement.

Xia Changdian encountered some obstacles. The male monster department and the female monster department are not allowed to communicate with each other. Although he knew that Xiaomei was sent to the opposite female monster department because she was found to be infertile, but he couldn't help it. He contacted the other party, so he could only go through the room of each male monster, and of course the effect was not good. All the monsters imprisoned here look resigned, as if they have lost their thoughts about life and are just living like corpses. They don't respond to Xia Changdian's overt and secret persuasion, and some monsters even learn about him. It was when he was wrapped up by the experimenter for a long time that he felt jealous and wanted to scratch his face.

Xia Changdian didn't know how to react. On the one hand, he was angry at his behavior, but on the other hand, he couldn't help feeling pity for his messy skin and dirty soul. Now that he has fallen into the mud and buried himself in the mud, he still stretches out his withered hands to grab everything around him and drag him into hell. This kind of monster is not just a victim, he is also a ghost, worse than a tiger. To be a hateful existence.

At night, Qian Erbai came to Xia Changdian, and when he learned that there was no progress here, Qian Erbai comforted Xia Changdian and said: "There is a motto in the ghost hospital, which says 'save the monster who can be saved, save the monster who can save himself', used in The same is true here. We will do our best, and as for how many monsters listen to it and wake up, it depends on their own good luck."

Xia Changdian nodded and decided to try again tomorrow, if they are still indifferent , then you can only give up this game of chess.

Two days passed in a blink of an eye. The past two days seemed to be calm, but in fact, the dark tide was surging. Tu Xiao's theoretical indoctrination vaguely aroused the resistance of some experimental subjects, but because this sign was too subtle, it was only spread secretly in a small area and did not cause much repercussions.

Tu Xiao felt that his efforts seemed to be useless, and he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. At this moment, he hoped that he could have the charisma of a leader. He jumped on the table and waved his arms, and these monsters were fully enlightened, and they followed him without hesitation to overthrow the oppression and establish a new era. order.

Qian Erbai was not surprised by this. The great man once said that a single spark can start a prairie fire, but it took six full years from a single spark to a prairie fire. They only have less than six days, and they have neither a mass base nor an armed force. It is tantamount to dreaming if they want to respond to all calls.

Tu Xiao sighed, and said, "I'm just not reconciled. Is it the only way to give up like this? Nothing changed until I left?"

Qian Erbai said indifferently: "There is never anything that can be achieved overnight in the world. It is the accumulation of quantitative change to qualitative change. Relying on the power of a few people to change the sky, that is the plot of a Hollywood movie. In addition," he looked at Tu Xiao , He paused every word, "Who says nothing will change?"

Tu Xiao was surprised, wondering if he was going to do something, and couldn't help but get excited.

Qian Erbai said nothing, just pushed the equipment cart into the mixed-blood area, Tu Xiao followed behind him, lowered his head, in case other monsters noticed the eagerness in his eyes.

Qian Erbai nodded to the lab staff, while chatting casually, he took out the potion and put it on the operating table.

There are dozens of beds in the center of the room, and a female monster is lying on each bed. Their bodies are only covered with a sheet. Their faces are pale and their eyes are dim. They are obviously not bound, but they let the researcher They fiddled.

Seeing the employees sticking needles into the female monster's veins, Qian Erbai said unintentionally: "It's too pitiful for them to be like this. They are controlled by drugs and forced to go into heat every day. They don't even have the freedom to reproduce. It makes me sad to see it."

Most of the monsters heard this, but very few responded to him, and some even laughed, as if saying that he was "fake mercy", only two monsters hesitated for a second, but then Shaking his head, he stuck the needle into his arm again.

Looking at the transparent liquid slowly dripping into the bodies of the female monsters, Qian Erbai sighed in his heart.

Before, he still wanted to win over a group of employees, but now that they have given up this option, Qian Erbai no longer insists. The cause of one's own choice must always be borne by oneself. It is easy for a piece of paper to become dirty, but if you want to turn it back into a white paper, you have to tear off several layers of skin. If it is completely black from the heart, then you have to tear it up and make a new one.

The male monsters were brought in, and the experiment was about to begin. The experimenters have to guide and record the whole process, so some of them stayed in the laboratory, while the other went to the monitoring room at the back to watch.

Qian Erbai glanced at those female monsters, pushed the cart and walked out.

Tu Xiao's face darkened, he didn't know why Qian Erbai didn't stop them, such an experiment to eliminate strangeness was completely deformed, perverted, and shouldn't exist at all! Tu Xiao was disappointed, turned and left. Qian Erbai locked the door, thinking that the next scene was really not suitable for children to watch, so he let him go.

Qian Erbai did do something today. Not only did he replace the muscle relaxants mixed with aphrodisiacs that he usually infused into the female monsters with anti-inflammatory drugs, but when he passed by the beds of those female monsters, A handful of thin blades were quietly placed in their hands. He didn't explain, nor did he make any hints. He wanted to see their truest reactions, and he hoped that they could follow their hearts.

He has already thrown the straw out, it just depends on whether the other party is willing to accept it.

With a knife in hand and a monster who has been humiliating them in front of them, how would they choose?

Some female monsters put away their knives, preparing to endure an involuntary movement as usual, and then waited silently to be sent back to the room. She was thinking and watching; some monsters didn't even look at the blade, She tried her best to cooperate with the male monster who came to sow seeds. She only hoped to get pregnant as soon as possible to get a few months of rest; Smiling in the blood, he slashed the blade across his neck again; some monsters faced the one-way mirror and cut their wrists, holding up their bloody arms to demonstrate until they lost too much blood and passed out; He rushed to the stunned researchers, and sent the thin blades into the body of the most hated monster time and time again...

The researchers behind the mirror were all shocked, and no one dared to enter the room to stop this A show of death to watch.

Looking at this magnificent scene, Qian Erbai felt mixed feelings in his heart. He couldn't tell whether what he did was right or wrong, but all these female monsters had made their own choices.

He remembered that life. He was an iron-blooded general who protected the frontier and expanded the land. Standing on the tower, he watched the people in the isolated city who were captured in front of the enemy line put their arms together, sang generously, and shouted loudly: "The general shoots arrows!" Come on, we will be honored to die!" That battle was the only one he lost, but it was also the beginning of when all the people in the isolated city became soldiers and truly became a frontier fortress.

How similar is this moment to that day! This is the eighth day of the Demon King's ten-day period, and it is also the first day when the captive lambs officially start their rebellion, and it is also the beginning of the end of the evil in Jiacha Town. This is the eighth day of the Demon King's ten-day period, and it will also be the first day when the captive lambs officially start their rebellion, and it will also be the beginning of the end of the evil in Jiacha Town. Qian Erbai clenched the walkie-talkie in his pocket, his eyes determined.

It's not that he's cold-blooded, he's just an outsider, he can be saved for a
