A Race to (Be) The Top - Chapter 58
Ji Mengzonglu looked round and round in the woods, but there was no trace of Ling Xiaolu.
In the friends panel, people are still online, and it shows that they are in Beimang, but they don’t see anyone, and they don’t reply to private chats.
The fog in the forest has become thicker and thicker since then, and the visibility is only a few meters. Of the dozens of people who came with him, none of them were seen. All that came from my ears was the sound of deer hoofs stepping on the snow, and the forest was filled with a weird and gloomy atmosphere.
“Ji Meng! Ji Meng!” Finally, there was a voice that made Ji Meng confirm that he was still awake and that he had not unknowingly suffered from the illusion.
Chang Huanxi ran towards him excitedly, followed by Zero who was inseparable from him.
“Look at Ji Meng! I caught a fox!”
Just as Ji Meng wanted to say how it was possible, he saw Chang Huanxi holding a fluffy white dumpling in his arms.
“How is it possible?” He still blurted out, “Why do you have a fox’s picture book?”
“I don’t have one, but there is nothing! Have you forgotten that he is a Xinshan employee? He taught me how to use it, and I caught it in one shot, not great!”
“…” The fox’s capture is extremely difficult, let alone a rare encounter, even if it is encountered, it is common to fail more than a dozen times in a row.
In this regard, Ji Meng can only explain that Chang Huanxi was so ugly that he couldn’t stand the system anymore, and sent a fox to make up for him.
Chang Huanxi noticed that Ji Meng was not happy about it, but looked around anxiously.
“The fox already has it, what are you looking for?”
“Where is Lubi? Have you seen anyone else?” Ji Meng asked with a frown.
“Brother Deer? Isn’t he with you?”
“We are separated.”
“It’s gone…” Chang Huanxi felt a headache and helpless as he looked at the thick white mist around him.
“I’ll look for it nearby again.” Just as Ji Meng was about to leave, he heard zero opening.
“What are you looking for, Lubi?”
Ji Meng immediately turned around: “Did you see it?”
Zero’s answer is not what he asked: “Please please Ji Meng.”
Ji Meng:?
Zero turned his neck slowly and uniformly, as if scanning the forest in detail.
“Discover the goal.”
His eyes opened sharply, and a gust of wind ran through the front, blowing away the fog along the way without a trace, instantly widening his vision.
Ji Meng:? ? ?
Ling Xiaolu stood at the end of Ji Meng’s sudden clear vision, raising his right hand strangely and pointing at Li Zheng in front of him.
Ji Meng’s heart tightened suddenly. For some reason, this scene gave him the illusion that he was about to lose Ling Xiaolu.
It was as if the two people would leave hand in hand in the next second, and it had nothing to do with him ever since.
However, in the next second, Li Zheng made a gesture that Ji Meng couldn’t understand, and Ling Xiaolu’s shoulders shook, as if he had fallen from a dream to reality.
“…Master?”
Ling Xiaolu looked at the Li Zheng in front of him in a daze, and also noticed his index finger that was stretched out inexplicably.
He didn’t know why he held his hand in front of his eyes and looked left and right, “What am I doing?” Why did he make such weird movements?
“Nothing,” Li Zheng’s tone was still cold and silent, “You have been caught by Yunhu’s illusion, and I have already solved it for you.”
“I’m in a illusion?” Ling Xiaolu looked confused, “Then did I say anything?”
“Before I came, you were talking to yourself, and you couldn’t hear a word.”
Ling Xiaolu tried hard to remember, but it was blank.
“I don’t remember what I saw. It seems to be a sad thing.” Although he didn’t remember the picture, he vaguely remembered his mood at the time.
“Lubi!” Ji Meng drove the deer forward, pretending to be calm on the surface.
When Ling Xiaolu saw him, he didn’t feel any sadness anymore, and ran to him happily.
“I saw a fox, it’s right there…”
Ling Xiaolu turned around and designated the grid with his hand in the middle. Not to mention Yunhu there, even the figure of Li Zheng disappeared.
“Strange, where is my master?”
Ji Meng didn’t care where Li Zheng went, it would be better if he left.
“The fox has been caught.”
“Huh?” Ling Xiaolu was quickly distracted, “Did you catch it? Where?”
“Here here!” Chang Huanxi rushed to him shaking his chubby body, Yunhu clingingly on his neck, “I caught it!”
“Huh? Xi’er, amazing!” Ling Xiaolu didn’t expect Chang Huanxi to take the lead.
“Right? I didn’t expect it to be so fun to catch a baby,” Chang Huanxi happily touched Yunhu’s tail, “The tame moment is particularly fulfilling!”
Ling Xiaolu remembered that they still had competitors.
“Where are the people from Dou Niwan? They obviously have a strong sense of existence just now, why are you not seeing any of them now?”
The fog dissipated again, and Ling Xiaolu saw the members of Dou Niwan on the other side of the forest.
They seemed to have been psychedelic, some giggling silly, some weeping idiotically, some holding the big tree tightly, and some sitting sadly on the ground eating snow.
Dou Kou smiled at a big rock: “Daughter, do you like this fox? Dad can catch anything else you want.”
None of the four of them learned the skills to dispel the illusion. Fortunately, the DEBUFF time is limited, and the recruits have gradually returned to normal.
After Dou Kou was sober, he found the fox in his hands, angry and anxious.
“I have promised Xiao Nanxun to send her a fox.” He walked angrily two times on the snow, stepping on messy footprints, “The little fat guy over there, can the fox sell it to me?”
“No.” Ling Xiaolu and Chang Huanxi said in unison.
“This is what I want to give to Xiao Nanxun.” Chang Huanxi even added fuel to the fire.
Dou Kou was so angry that he couldn’t speak for a long time: “You make a price, you can talk about how much you want!”
“Do you think I look like I’m short of money?” Chang Huanxi didn’t dare to compliment him except for the character.
“Then you make an offer!” Dou Kou gave it up.
“Um…” Chang Huanxi couldn’t think of it, “Say Xiaolu.”
“You want to sell?” Ling Xiaolu asked in surprise.
Chang Huanxi put it in his ear: “Look at his sincere attitude, give him a chance.”
Ling Xiaolu was also embarrassed: “What conditions can I open? Is it possible for him to divide you into a mine?”
“What can mine do? I’m not rare.”
The follower also approached Dou Kou and whispered a few words in a low voice. Dou Kou’s expression was instantly tangled.
“Impossible! Can’t do it!”
The attendant looked helpless: “Patriarch, I can only think of this, maybe there is still a chance.”
Dou Kou walked around violently, Ji Meng was unwilling to spend time with him, and said to Ling Xiaolu and Chang Huanxi: “Let’s go.”
“Wait!” Dou Kou shouted loudly.
His expression looked like he had just made an extremely difficult decision: “You guys wait for me!”
Ling Xiaolu was inexplicable: “Didn’t you ask us, why did you let go of cruel words?” Is it possible to use grab?
No matter what he said, Dou Kou raised his hand to hold his earlobe, and exchanged a few words with someone who didn’t know. In a blink of an eye, Lu Jiu flew to Ling Xiaolu by using a friend’s teleportation.
“What? This person said to trouble you?”
Ling Xiaolu looked dumbfounded: “Huh?”
“I said it!” Dou Kou yelled out of anger, “I don’t say that, can you come so fast?”
“There is a chance to harvest, I will come very soon.” The sharp nails of the mochi popped out of the gloves.
“Wait,” Ling Xiaolu stopped him, “first listen to what he wants to say.”
Dou Kou gritted his teeth and made his mouth again, and finally made up his mind, stood up straight, and quickly bowed to the monk: “I’m sorry!”
Dove: “…”
Dou Kou also persisted for less than two seconds before returning to the original state, speaking aggressively.
“It’s okay! What do you want me to do! I have to kneel down to admit that he was wrong?!”
Lu Jiu turned to Ling Xiaolu: “What did you do to him?”
Ling Xiaolu pointed to the cloud fox on Chang Huanxi’s neck, and he knew it clearly: “That’s it.”
“Forget it, give it to him.” Ji Meng said without emotion.
Chang Huanxi also listened to what he said, and took off the cloud fox from his neck: “Go, baby.”
Dou Kou was ecstatic if he was caught by the treasure.
“Congratulations to the patriarch! The patriarch can bend and stretch!” The people of Dou Niwan never give up any opportunity to praise the patriarch.
Dou Kou couldn’t wait to find Nan Xun Xianbao. When he passed Ling Xiaolu and the group of people, his steps stopped and his expression was complicated.
“Wait!” Ji Meng stopped him.
Dou Kou exploded like a firecracker: “What’s wrong! Ask for money, right? Ask for money, I won’t pay the fox!”
Ji masked expressionlessly: “Pink names cannot carry battle pets. Remember to learn mount skills before giving it to her.”
“Oh,” Dou Kou patted his head annoyedly, “My brain, how can I forget this.”
He greeted the clan members: “Go, go to the petting exchange to learn skills!”
“Yes, the patriarch!”
Dou Kou happily took people away: “My daughter has a fox to ride! My daughter can ride a fox!”
Ling Xiaolu didn’t know whether he was irritated or amused: “This person is really, no matter good or bad, as long as he sets a goal, he will do nothing.”
Ji Menggao was cold for a long time, and Dou Kou turned his face a second after he left.
“Don’t talk about others, talk about yourself! Are you here to catch the fox, or are you here to be caught by the fox? If you say yes, you will come right away, but where did you go!”
Ling Xiaolu: “…”
How could he forget that there is still a wave of catastrophes to cross here.
“Don’t be angry, don’t be angry,” Ling Xiaolu grabbed his arm naturally, “the fog is too thick, I’m lost.”
Lu Jiu fights the injustice for him: “Little brother, how come the people you know are more fierce to you?
“I haven’t been fierce to Brother Deer!” Chang Huanxi hurriedly raised his hand to clarify.
“Not fierce, not fierce,” Ling Xiaolu said for Ji Meng with ignorant conscience, “he is usually gentle.”
Chang Huanxi vomited.
Ji Meng, who was gentle, had a fierce face, and he didn’t mean to be gentle at all.
“Don’t pay attention to them. The fox is over, I’ll take you down the battlefield to kill people.”
“…” Ling Xiaolu found out. For Yunjiu, taking people off the battlefield to kill is also a kind of obsession.
Ji Meng was anxious when he heard this, he forced Ling Xiaolu back and said, “No! We will broadcast it later!”
“Live broadcast? Isn’t it tomorrow?” Ling Xiaolu asked foolishly behind him.
“I’ll go to the arena with him!”
“There are only 1V1 and 3V3 in the arena. Two people can’t play?”
“Mission! Let’s do it!” Ji Meng turned his head angrily and yelled at him.
Ling Xiaolu was afraid to lean back: …Just say you want to play together, it’s that simple.
He secretly hid behind Ji Meng’s eyes and gave a wink, mimicking Shunmao’s movements in the space between his hands.
Yunji knows: “Well, then tomorrow…”
“Tomorrow we have to do the task too!” Ji Meng interrupted him unceremoniously, “There is still the day after tomorrow! The day after tomorrow!”
Luji chuckles, with a faint smell of mockery: “Unexpectedly, it is still a series of tasks.”
“Why, do you look down on Xinshan’s planning? All tasks in this game have a beginning and an end!”
Chang Huanxi interrupted: “Hey, our network zero is not bad at this point.”
Ji Meng glared at him, thinking he was superfluous.
Chang Huanxi shrugged and pulled the zero up and walked away: “A Ling, have you played my game? I will send you a set of peripherals later, can you try it?…”
Yunjiu’s figure gradually faded but among the crows: “I’ll go see what the people in Douniwan are up to.”
…It seems that Dou Kou’s apology is still limited!
“If they are with Xiao Nanxun, then open the net!” Ling Xiaolu exhorted before Lu Jiu disappeared.
“Relax.” Only two words were left in the air.
Finally only two of them were left, Ling Xiaolu took the initiative to grab the topic right before Ji Meng became angry again: “Where do we go to do the task? What task do we do?”
The breath that Ji Meng raised high and slowly let it go, but his expression was unclear, he was unclear, and even a little sad. This kind of Ji Meng made Ling Xiaolu feel unfamiliar.
“Just now, what did you say with Lizheng in the woods?”
“What did you say?” Ling Xiaolu repeated his last sentence mechanically.
“I saw you pointing at him.”
“Like this?” Ling Xiaolu raised his hand again. After a while, he felt that the meaning of this action was complicated, and then let it go.
“Have you ever dreamed? It’s the kind of thing that suddenly wakes up from a dream, knowing that you just had a dream, but can’t remember the content of the dream.”
“know.”
“I feel that way when I’m awake, maybe I was in the illusion, and I was pointing at someone or something.”
Ji Meng lowered his head and pressed his lower lip, trying to swallow the weird feeling deep in his throat.
“Do you know that when Zero dispelled the mist, when I first saw you–“
Halfway through his words, he stopped abruptly.
“forget it. I’m done here.”
“Ah? Don’t tell me, what happened to you?” Ling Xiaolu asked curiously.
Ji Meng raised his head, his eyes were clearly confused: “I thought you were going to disappear.”
“I disappeared? How come!”
“I mean, you are leaving with your master.”
“Go? Where to go? Back to Beimang?” Ling Xiaolu was even more confused, “This is Beimang?”
“…” Ji Mengji and Ya said, this man didn’t have a moment of seriousness, so why did he suddenly and sincerely think that he would lose him?
Who cares about losing a fool!
Ji Meng huffed down the mountain, and didn’t forget to grab Ling Xiaolu on the back of the deer before leaving, and was severely imprisoned between his arms. Ling Xiaolu’s ribs were all strangled with pain.
“Afraid that I disappeared again?”
“To shut up!”
“But you haven’t said what mission we are going to do.” Ling Xiaolu suspected that Ji Meng couldn’t find a place to pick up the mission.
Ji Meng was even more domineering and directly called his dedicated customer service: “Is there any task suitable for fools!”
Customer Service: “…”
She asked politely and implicitly: “Are you going to do a task?”
“Correct!”
The customer service contacted the context and was lost in thought.
“I’m sorry to wait for a long time. I have retrieved the plot tasks for you that you haven’t completed.”
The task names are densely arranged on the holographic screen, and the page turning bar seems to be long behind.
Ling Xiaolu rejoiced: “The mission that Ji Meng didn’t complete, isn’t that all missions -1?”
People who have only completed one task so far dare to brag about the beginning and end of their tasks.
Ji Meng’s customer service is considerate: “After my latest screening, these are a list of tasks suitable for two players to complete together.”
The number is much less, but it is still very exaggerated.
Ling Xiaolu suddenly thought: “Is there a series of missions for [An Unknown Soldier’s Last Wish]?
The customer service continued to search: “It is shown in the database that [An Unknown Soldier’s Last Wish] is an independent hidden mission. There is no series of missions, only another mission is slightly related to it.”
“What is it?”
“This is a series of missions, the initial mission’s name is [Playback Witch].”
“The name of this task is so good.” Even the second-year boy Ling Xiaolu was not interested in listening to it, and Ji Meng was even more agreeable.
“This is also one of the main tasks in the game, but…”
“But what?”
“The main task usually takes a long time. If all are done, it may take several days to complete.”
Ji Meng: “Okay! Just do this!”
Ling Xiaolu: “…”
The customer service put away the holographic screen and nodded slightly: “So, do you need to help you transfer it?”
Ling Xiaolu: …It turns out that you don’t have to find the place where you have money to connect to the task, the authority dog!
