Chapter 216: Reserves
The necromantic creatures were quickly driven out of the forest, as the forest was densely packed with bugs. There are so many bugs that at least the undead army, which has always prided itself on being outnumbered, can hardly match. Seeing this, Skoll immediately sent troops to respond, and threw out the few remaining "vomiting gas" and "turbidity bombs" to smoke the insects away. As soon as the soldiers climbed the wall, the rope ladder was immediately retracted to avoid being taken advantage of by the elves. The ghosts parade under the walls to make sure the rope ladder is recovered, and then they fly back to the base camp.
"Host, I felt like I was flying just now, didn't I?"
"Shut up."
Qingyi returned to the city wall, threw the carcass of the beetle he was carrying to the ground, and asked Scowl depressedly, "Tell me what this is?" ”
The beetle is the size of a distilled bucket and is no lighter than a bucket of distilled water. It has a single horn on its head, which is so black that it does not reflect a trace of light, but its sharpness does not need to be shown by appearance. Its elytra have many brown and green spots on its elytra, and it looks like a special soldier, but it has no other characteristics.
"Don't you see the attributes?" Scowl didn't bother to say.
"I've seen it, I've never seen such a high-level bug, and what's worse is that there are a lot of them!"
Camouflage Unicorn: Level 57, Beetle (insect). This carnivorous insect has a ferocious personality and dares to attack enemies stronger than itself, but luckily they only like to live in warm and humid rainforests and do not come near human cities. Curiously, although they are not social animals, they never kill each other and even cooperate in hunting. Some scholars believe that they have a queen-like existence, but there is currently no evidence to support this, and perhaps the witnesses have become their belly food. The skills he is good at are [Collision], [Block], and [Bite]. When 100, 1,000, and 10,000 attack together, Attack and Defense are increased by 5%, 15%, and 55%, respectively.
"Let me introduce you." Poison Rosewood approached with a smile, first poked the beetle with a pink wand, and saw that the beetle was dead, and then raised her little face: "The elf is close to nature, but there are no vegetarian (is) only plants in nature!" Insects and birds are all members of nature! The camouflage unicorn fairy lives in the wilderness and is transported by the elves in an evergreen ship. ”
Then, the poisonous carrot showed a sneer that did not match her immature face, and the kind of cold and noble precipitated in the glory and wealth and the ups and downs of the world spontaneously appeared, which made Qingyi's eyes light up.
"What are you laughing at?"
"You should know that each place has different soil and water, and the plants and animals that can be nurtured are also different, and there are rules in the dark. A very inconspicuous little creature may lose the threat of natural predators and threaten the entire ecosystem if it changes its environment. The elves advocate the harmony of nature and should abide by this unwritten rule, but in order to win, they dare to introduce so many alien species at one time, ignoring the stability of the natural world. These wandering elves have long lost their nature, so why not be depraved in another sense, oh hehehe! ”
Qingyi is also an adult with his own opinions, at this time he just smiled and did not echo the poisonous dill. It is true that the introduction of alien species is an extremely dangerous thing, but the camouflage unicorn likes the rainforest climate, and will not like the coniferous forest here, and will die before the harsh winter comes. Poison Rose's words just represent the position of her blood elves, just listen to it.
But he also felt like he had grown. In the past, he might have listened to one side of the story, but now, after thinking about it repeatedly, he can synthesize all aspects and summarize his own opinions, and he is not easily instigated. It seems that liking to get entangled is not all a bad thing, at least it helps to think independently.
Poison Rosewood glanced at Qingyi meaningfully, and chuckled: "Fortunately, I have already prepared the 'insect repellent powder', otherwise it would be a big mess!" ”
When Skoll heard this, he craned his neck to look under the city wall, and sure enough, the insects were still some distance away from the city wall and then lingered, as if they had hit an invisible wall and could not be crossed. Even so, the buzz of their wings is high and low, like a demon's whisper, and it is still difficult to sleep.
"'Insect repellent powder' can only cope for a while, Lord Poison Rose." Skoll was a little unkind, it seems that he just learned that there is such a thing as "insect repellent powder", if he could have known it in advance, there would be no need to waste "turbidity bombs" and "vomiting gas". "I'll take command of the ghost fleet."
Qingyi asked, "What's wrong with them?" ”
"The Ghost Fleet has also been attacked by the swarm. The crew was fine, and it was a big deal to sink the ship into the sea, but the sailors who were still stationed on the island were all killed, including the three Blood Elf mages who were resetting the teleportation array. Now the Transit Island is occupied by the elves. As Skoll spoke, he summoned the Necromantic Beast. The necromantic beast carried him away with a clatter. "It should be here tonight, you can go offline and rest."
Qingyi looked at the time, and before he knew it, it was ten o'clock. He cleared his mind and summed up the results of today's battle.
First of all, the rock trigger appears, shocking the necromantic side;
Skaul decides to attack, and Diesel's modified pure white abomination (giant sandworm) comes in handy to hold back the rock trigger;
Chigami came out and made a small fuss for a while, and was killed;
The rock trigger appeared, and he had to hand over the control of his body to Xue Duo and suppress the rock trigger;
Bald Eagle sent out its reserves, ate its own vanguard, and stopped the attack.
In general, tonight's operation was a complete failure. Even if he used Xue Duo's power, he couldn't put the great god to death, and he couldn't drive straight forward and take the head of the bald eagle dog at all, and he was caught off guard by the swarm of insects that covered the sky and the sun, so he could only retreat in embarrassment. If you want to be careful, it's been like this for several nights in a row. Attacking is a one-off affair, and getting hit head-on every time is a demoralizing blow (although necromantic creatures don't have morale to speak of), and if placed in a human army, this situation will definitely cause discouragement.
Qingyi patted his chest and scattered the depression. His gaze fell on Xiao Ge and Frankie, as if he saw something filthy + thing, and immediately turned his face. He said goodnight to Poison Rose, and went offline in the safety zone.
As soon as consciousness returned to its original body, a feeling of exhaustion quickly invaded every corner of the body. Although there was still some time before going to bed, Qingyi did not watch the video of the great god's game, but turned off the computer and went to the bathroom. After washing with cold water, he turned off the lights and went to bed. But after lying down for a while, he sat up again and took a meditative position.
He realizes that this war may not be his war with Bald Eagle, but his war with himself, so he needs to calm down and talk to himself. He closes his eyes, dismisses distractions, and sinks into his inner world. In the vast starry sky, he once again saw the white-boned tyrant with a hideous face and a dark aura.
"What the hell are you trying to do!" He said to the White Bone Tyrant, very displeased: "I am now beginning to suspect my subordinates, and I have to move my mind to kill them...... It's all your influence! ”
"I am nothing more than an ethereal ghost differentiated from 'me', so to speak, I and 'me' are one." The Bone Tyrant had a hoarse voice and a creepy smile: "Now that everything is on my head, do 'I' have a clear conscience?" ”
"You didn't show up at the time, but—"
The White Bone Tyrant roared suddenly: "Don't deny it crookedly! Don't 'I' understand it yet?! I want to abandon that incompetent subordinate too! I also want to stifle the possibility of betrayal! Those thoughts are not instilled into 'me' by me, but have long been hidden in the depths of 'my' consciousness, and they belong to 'me' the truest thoughts! ”
"That's enough, don't fool 'me' anymore!"
Qing Yi turned his head and saw a third person in his inner world besides him and the White Bone Tyrant, which was a male human warrior armed with a serrated sword. He dressed lightly, with a proud face of spring breeze, exuding the unique warmth of the sun from the inside out. Anyone who sees him will have a sense of trust in him. This is the polar opposite of the Bone Tyrant.
The White Bone Tyrant glanced at the human warrior gloomily, separating him from Qingyi with a scepter: "June Sunshine, this is not the place you came from, you were thrown into the garbage by 'me' early tomorrow." ”
June Sunshine ignored the White Bone Tyrant, just stepped forward and grabbed Qingyi's shoulder sincerely: "'I', have you forgotten?" Only by trusting others will others fight side by side with 'me'. If I live with doubts every day, not only will I not be able to achieve true inner freedom, but I will also not be able to be supported by others. ”
"Without trust, there is no betrayal."
Qingyi suddenly laughed, broke free of the other party's hands, and turned to leave: "Betrayal? Treachery?! If all you see is betrayal...... Then leave me alone and go down. ”
When the White Bone Tyrant heard this, he laughed and said to June Sunshine: "Your appearance has the opposite effect, making 'me' make up my mind!" ”
June Sunshine couldn't believe it: "In the end...... What happened?! ”
The inner world quickly dimmed, and only the eternal dead silence remained.
————————————————————————————————————
The next day.
Lucy took annual leave a few days ago, saying that she was going to Las Vegas for a vacation, so Qingyi took the shift. For the "Qiankun" competitive competition, countless people have become otaku and otaku, while people who don't understand the game still live their own lives.
After surviving the noon rush hour, Qingyi stretched his waist and said to Edward, "Hey, go to dinner?" ”
"Not today." Edward got up and sent a letter to Qingyi's desktop: "The contract has expired, and I want to resign." ”
Qingyi lowered his arms and sat upright. Instead of looking at the resignation, he looked into Edward's eyes and asked, "Why?" Is there anything about my management that you don't agree with? ”
Edward smiled, "Have you ever managed?" Just kidding, you're managing very well and I'm happy as an employee. ”
"As an employee......" Qingyi recalled these two words, and then suddenly realized, and also smiled: "Are you here to go undercover?" ”
"I don't work for any company." Edward did not deny Qingyi's claim.
"Got it, 'entrepreneurial undercover people'." Qingyi nodded.
The so-called "entrepreneurial undercover people" are those who join a certain company to learn experience in order to start a business. While becoming employees, they are paying attention to accumulating industry experience, saving related resources, and even priing the company's walls when they leave, pulling colleagues to their new companies and forming a team. In today's increasingly free capital, "undercover entrepreneurs" have long been common.
Qingyi understood the other party very well, leaned back in the chair, and asked with a smile: "Ready to do catering express?" ”
"I thought so at first, but now I realize that I am fortunate not to be in this industry. You can think of every marketing tool and service positioning I can think of, and you think of many other things that I can't think of. I'm going to run my own restaurant. ”
"That's good, isn't it your own courier?"
"I haven't started yet, so I can't say anything." Edward, a foreigner, even knew such a tactful expression. "What about you? When do you plan to start your business? Do you want a partner? ”
"Me? Hehe, I'm not like you. Qingyi hurriedly waved his hand.
Edward was a little surprised: "Unbelievable, Zhang! You chose to live your life in such a small business? Are you sure? ”
"It's not ...... either"
Suddenly, Qingyi was shocked to realize that he had no reason to stay in Little Bee Express. Maybe Little Bee Express has to be him, but he doesn't have to be Little Bee Express.
Seeing that Qingyi didn't answer, Edward smiled and didn't mind, so he hugged the cardboard box that had already been packed, said goodbye to his good colleagues, and left.
After Harry, there was one less old face in the office.
