Chapter 512 Life Is Both Stinky and Beautiful
When Mingnu assigned all the "heroes" to the Infinite City... she assigned everyone to areas that matched their "characteristics".
Li Nuo was a man who lived on the edge of a knife and always faced danger, so he went directly to the central area and faced Du Juan's interception.
Maljie and Nanami had a strange relationship, so they got together.
Luo Lei and Johannesson were the closest, so they were also together.
Victor usually mixed with mechanical life forms and had military attributes, so he was squeezed together with dozens of interstellar hunters.
Karaka was a succubus who liked men, so she was squeezed among Victor and dozens of other men.
Zeref and Kasim were too dangerous and mysterious, so they were placed at the edge of the Infinite City and separated.
Die...
She was a killer.
She always hid in secret corners.
So she teleported to the most secret place in the Infinite City, inside the king.
Then... Malger took away the "protagonist halo" of the king, which gave Die the opportunity to use the [Eternal Spirit Sword] to hurt the king's internal body, and then she came out...
Now, the people watching in Basel also suddenly realized it.
"It turned out to be a funny comic..."
"How could Nanami be the heroine of a funny comic!"
"Stupid* author!"
The audience was scolding.
They scolded the protagonist who had just accepted it and had to face such a weird development.
They scolded the villain for turning into such a funny appearance.
They scolded their heroine for living in such an absurd world.
But the more they scolded, the happier the author was.
Everyone was a fun person, and the weird development made the popularity of Li Nuo's story begin to rise.
[Current popularity 15%]
Li Nuo was dumbfounded.
He could only sigh: "Sometimes people's lives are really unpredictable..."
The staff nodded: "Yes."
For example, she was killed when she was holding instant noodles.
...
Die was dragged out by the king.
She looked at the angry king, and the girl killer showed timidity.
"I...wait...I."
"You..."
Wang's teeth gradually became sharper, like the sharp teeth of a wild animal.
When it was trying to crush the butterfly to death, Cha Bai quickly activated the [portal], but Wang used the explosion of methane to affect the direction with a look.
At the critical moment, Maljie used the grid function of the white coat to collect the butterfly.
The four eyes met.
The relationship between the two protagonists seemed to be reversed.
Maerjie was not injured by Wang's attack in the next moment, because Cha Bai's [portal] accidentally opened in front of Maljie, helping him to transfer Wang's explosion to the subspace.
This is the "protagonist halo".
But Wang was about to collapse completely.
Everything he had worked hard for was destroyed by an insignificant girl at the last moment.
This reminded him of Shao Hong.
The appearance of that woman caused it to give birth prematurely, otherwise its strength would not be so weak.
"I was destroyed by a nameless person..."
Wang looked at his hand, his eyes touched.
"The breadth of the world is really unexpected..."
It calmed itself down.
It lowered its eyebrows and fell into peace.
A dozen meters away.
Die came out of Maljie's coat: "Brother Ma!"
"It's okay." Maljie comforted: "What did you see inside it?"
Die said anxiously: "It's very dark, and there are many people's voices lingering in my ears!"
"I see."
Maljie stared at the wound that Wang had cut open with a kitchen knife. It was dark inside, with faint red light spots.
Soul!
The souls of the people of Minas City are there!
Maljie gritted his teeth and shouted: "Miss Chabai!"
"Ah, I see!" Chabai wanted to cooperate with him to open Wang's body.
"I'll come too!" Xiaowu pulled the bowstring, ready to use [You already have a way to die] and Chabai's [Iron Tuo Artificial Cannon] to give Wang a critical hit.
But at this moment, Wang's body burst out with strange energy, and Chabai could only choose to move Maljie and Die to a farther place again.
The souls of several guards were forcibly collected by Wang.
It had been thinking that at the moment of greatest danger, it would use this power to turn the situation around and win the last moment of the protagonist.
If the butterfly had not appeared, it might have been possible to turn the situation around.
It was too late.
It was all over.
The king raised his arms.
"Since the protagonist's path cannot be taken, I will accompany you to play the last scene of the story. As the evil god, I will give you, the brave men, a great gift."
It looked at the sky.
"And you, fate."
In the previous life, the ant king was destroyed by human malice in "Hunter x Hunter".
In this life, the ant king was firmly grasped by fate in "Infinite City" and could not get close.
Its power was almost infinitely expanding, and a huge shield covered its entire body, forming a translucent insect egg.
A crack opened in the sky.
[Danger level: S (still increasing)]
The king's body was collapsing, and it could not withstand the sudden acceleration.
It was like at work, if a week's work was done in one hour, the spirit and brain of the person would collapse.
It condensed countless souls in the body and raised its own soul to the sky.
The black cloud opened a door that only it could see.
The king saw a pair of eyes with silver pupils behind the door.
Li Nuo stood up from his seat, and the king stood in front of him.
It crawled out of the frame, and the images that were disrupted by it seemed to become a black line that tied it up, tied its struggle.
It reached out to fate in the form of a paper man.
Wang gritted his teeth unwillingly, and it reached out to fate in the form of a paper man.
Its eyes were full of resentment and unwillingness to surrender to the writer.
Li Nuo slowly pressed its head.
There was only cold pity in the silver eyes on the author's face.
"When you decide to step on other people's lives to complete your milestone of challenging fate, you lose."
Li Nuo had really killed fate and high-dimensional life before. He understood better than anyone how to break the situation, but Wang didn't understand.
"Go back to where you came from."
Li Nuo activated the [Seal of Arden], and in an instant, purple spots of light swept the entire studio. Wang's body materialized and was also pressed back into the story by Li Nuo.
Wang's soul returned to the "Infinite City".
When it fell from the sky, there was a dead silence all around, and it was hesitant like a baby just out of the cradle.
Gambled everything, but nothing came of it.
Hoping to challenge fate, it was finally pushed back by fate.
"Ah——!"
The soul returned.
Wang roared like never before!
Jellal's eyes widened at this moment, fear spread all over his body, his face was smiling, but the corners of his mouth trembled involuntarily: "Damn... the strength of this thing is too strong..."
Xiao Wu nodded calmly: "Well, the blackened one is seven points stronger, which is reasonable. Killing it can make a lot of money..."
"What are you thinking, this bastard won't live long, if he explodes, we will suffer!" Jellal grabbed Xiao Wu's clothes: "Sister Chabai! Teleport the two of us away!"
"Okay." Chabai immediately activated the [Portal] and pulled away the irrelevant people.
At the same time, Wang's eyes burst into a strange light, and the colors could not be distinguished in the black and white world, but the light was dangerously deep.
With itself as the center, a huge shock wave spread and swept across the city.
The citizens who were protected by Maljie and Linuo in advance were all in the underground area. They were accompanied by Nanami and the gorilla princess. Everyone was safe for the time being.
Lilolilo and Cardboard Ram climbed out of the cave. The strong wind almost blew away Cardboard Ram's head. Lilolilo held it tightly.
Ominous, destruction, doom, the terrifying atmosphere almost swept the whole world.
Lilolilo's mother, who was far away overseas, looked uneasily in the direction of Minas City, her eyes were full of worries about her children.
In the sky, the spacecraft of the gorilla enterprise detected the breath of an explosion on the planet and aimed the muzzle at Minas City.
Chaos descended.
In the terrifying atmosphere, only the tombstone that Johannesson erected for Shao Hong was quietly waiting.
"Huh..."
Wang opened his eyes, and only Maljie was still in front of him.
"Are you still there?"
"Under the influence of the protagonist's halo, I was inexplicably teleported back." Maljie took a deep breath, and Chabai's [Portal] was affected, causing him to be teleported back to the king.
Wang said: "Sometimes the protagonist's halo cannot resist all bad luck."
"Hmph... How do you know if you don't try?" Maljie raised the corner of his mouth: "For this last scene, please cooperate with me to make an interesting ending."
Wang smiled slowly in silence: "Come!"
It opened its five fingers, and the magic element and marsh gas condensed together, and the dark light wave rolled the air and rushed towards Maljie.
Li Nuo, who was paying attention to the direction of the comics, finally picked up the dip pen at this time.
He wrote down the ability given to Maljie for temporary use on the paper.
[Pixel Slash]!
The fireworks of the light wave explosion extinguished themselves on Maljie's body.
Maljie's figure was infinitely repaired with pixels in the air explosion.
Wang stood there, and its expanding power caused the skin of his body to crack like an aging wall.
Positive and negative, light and shadow, it seems no longer important at this moment.
The robot Picasso helped the leader at the last moment. It emerged from the ground with its remaining body and roared in a distorted voice: "For, leader..."
Boom!
The king smashed it with a wave of his hand.
The small mechanical life form that jumped out of it tried to self-destruct in front of the king, but was collected by Maljie in his coat.
"No more deaths."
In the square, all the audience stayed for fun, but they were watching Maljie's meaningless last fight.
As Li Nuo said, this is a male protagonist who has been walking on thin ice for half his life but is still tough and indestructible.
[Pixel Slash· Blade of Destruction]
Maljie used the new move that Uncle Cairo taught Li Nuo.
He clumsily used his right arm as bait. The moment the king took off his arm, his left hand held a [piece of shit], and the methane turned into a pixel spot, piercing the king's chest with the [Blade of Destruction].
"So that's how it is..." Wang lowered his head, looked at Malger's hand piercing his body, and smiled: "You saw the souls in my body, you want to free them?"
"Humph, I'm a doctor."
[Current popularity 18%]
"The protagonist's halo will fail at the last moment." Wang's forehead veins popped up, and he smiled and said: "Because some protagonists will die at the end of the story."
Malger's hand was sucked into Wang's body, and he couldn't escape.
[Rescuer: Resist three fatal attacks (all consumed)]
The pixel repair is being absorbed by Wang.
This guy has the ability to repair pixels, and he uses Malger's [Pixel Slash] experience card ability to repair his body.
The pixel spots suddenly became vivid and shone on Malger's face.
[Current popularity 19%]
Wang: "The last ability of the Chimera Ant... Devour. If I fail, you will die with me."
Malger: "Who told you I can survive?"
Wang: "!?"
Suddenly, Wang felt something strange flowing in his body.
At this moment, Malger crushed the [Shit Block] in his hand.
[Rescuer: Crushing the methane particles spread by the "Shit Block" can slowly restore the health of creatures other than himself, about 0.5% per second]
"You..."
"Do you think the soul can't be saved?"
Malger grew a left arm, quickly pulled out a [YoRHa Tactical Knife] from his coat, and cut off the right arm imprisoned by the king.
He retreated hastily under the inertia, and his right arm regenerated, while the right arm stuck in the king's body disappeared, and the king's blasted chest was exposed to the air.
"Ha..." The king widened his eyes, he dared not imagine but could only believe.
A large number of souls poured out of the king's body. They were given the "recovery" property by the [shit block] of the [rescuer], so they rose to the sky and looked for their own bodies.
In the black and white world, there was a white light gathering in the sky.
These souls broke through the black clouds, accompanied by the stars shining in the sky, and fell to the earth like a meteor rain.
The light shone on every face.
In an instant, the fear of the king disappeared.
The king stood in place, looking at the sky, his eyes clear: "In the end, the hero defeated the evil god... What a cliché story."
Maljie: "In fact, I am also an evil god."
The king: "Really... So I am the hero..."
The ant king relied on the souls brought by the [charmer] to become powerful. When all these souls left it, the body was already overwhelmed.
Maljie lit a cigarette, raised his head, looked at the souls in the sky who were still looking for their bodies, and showed a relaxed look for the first time in a long time.
"Isn't life beautiful?"
But because of the [shit block], the light spots cast by the souls were a bit smelly, and gradually turned into smelly rain containing methane and fell in every corner of the city.
So life is actually very smelly.
Chabai opened a portal and pulled Die over with her.
She took out a hammer, turned it into an umbrella, and covered Maljie's head.
"Miss Chabai, you just put me by the king's side sincerely, right?"
Chabai's pair of beautiful eyes blinked.
"Otherwise, guess how Li Nuo will send you here to fight that guy?"
Maerjie: "He'll probably use a dump truck to hit me..."
Cha Bai asked: "How did you guess that this method can be used to send the soul back?"
Maerjie said: "First, those who fainted are not dead, which means that part of the soul is in their bodies. Secondly, Wang uses the power of the soul to strengthen himself, which means that the soul is still active. Finally, the treatment method of [Shit Block] means that the soul is being cured. As a soul, they will look for the body. Finally, the last..."
Maerjie took a deep breath and said: "Cairo world, there is no reason."
Die translated: "Brother Ma means that he is also guessing."
Maerjie acquiesced. He felt that even if his method failed, Li Nuo would have a way. In fact, Li Nuo had no way. He just simply believed that Maljie could do it.
Just like Lilo Lilo and Cardboard Ram, as long as the partners trust each other, there is no need to delve into what plans they have for each other.
Die said, "It's the rain, it smells a bit."
Cha Bai smiled and said, "Who told you that Brother Ma is the hero of the comedy comic."
"By the way, Miss Cha Bai, what are you doing here?" Maljie pointed at Die and said, "Although I know you brought her here so that we don't appear in the same frame in the comic."
"I found something." Cha Bai wanted to give the umbrella to Maljie.
Maljie didn't take the umbrella: "Then wait a little longer, please kill the king later..."
Cha Bai looked at the king who had withered and stood there like a stone statue, and doubts surged up his eyebrows.
"Ah?"
"Well, wait a minute..."
Maljie was waiting.
...
Some things, you have been waiting for it to come back, but in fact it has died in secret, but sometimes it will return in an unexpected way.
For example, life.
The first person to wake up from the coma was a girl.
Then, a large number of souls found their home and returned to their bodies.
The gorilla princess was standing by, and when she saw her "subjects" wake up, the princess burst into tears.
Nanami pulled the stick out of a monster's body, turned to look at the princess in the distance, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"I said that the doctor was fine."
Then... all the people who woke up began to vomit crazily.
"It stinks!"
"I feel like I ate shit!"
"Ah——! Help!"
"Kill me!"
If someone who didn't know the situation came to see this, they would think that a terrible human experiment was being conducted here...
Nanami looked at it and suddenly laughed: "Puff... Haha, hahahahaha!"
...
[The people of Minas City have been saved]
[Promotion to rescuer]
Maerjie received the prompt, but he didn't rush to see the result of the promotion.
Instead, he turned to look at Chabai.
"Help me collect the bodies."
Maerjie put his hands together, and a huge cross appeared behind him.
[Rescuer: Exchange your life for the rebirth opportunity of those who believe in the second life. You can revive up to two players at a time. If the resurrected person does not complete the script, you will die permanently]
Life cycle.
Cassim opened his eyes.
He touched his neck and said in surprise: "I am really alive! Captain Ma is awesome!"
And Maljie was already kneeling on the ground, silent.
[Current popularity 20%]
[Player 5899 has died]
Cha Bai nailed the umbrella to the ground to block the stinking rain from the sky.
"Die, keep an eye on him."
"Yeah, okay." Die nodded: "Sister Cha... what are you going to do?"
"Finish this." Cha Bai took out the [Black Magic Encyclopedia] and pulled out a [Magic Gatling] that she didn't usually use.
Then she swung the Gatling and smashed the dried body of the king into pieces.
Die wanted to complain: You treat everything as a hammer, right?
[Main quest completed: Kill the king]
[Will return in fifteen minutes]
Cha Bai found a strange parasite in the king's body.
It looks like a worm, but it has a face similar to that of a demon.
[Hidden BOSS location code] shows that this worm is most likely the hidden BOSS.
As for why it looks like this... Cha Bai's imagination is limited, so he stuffed the worm into the [Black Magic Encyclopedia] and planned to give it to Li Nuo when he returned.
In fact...
When Li Nuo first arrived in Minas City, he received a special message, which roughly said that the creature that Dante had hunted in the other world was in Minas City.
That creature was this worm.
At this moment, Cha Bai found a huge shadow pressing down in the sky.
She raised her head.
The army of Gorilla Enterprises descended over the city in a giant spaceship that was comparable to half of Minas City.
...
The story should end here.
But Li Nuo still did not move.
The staff asked, "Are you waiting for us to take you home in a taxi?"
Li Nuo: "Not yet."
"But... your main quest is over." The staff asked curiously, "You don't want to use your current abilities to greatly strengthen your teammates... Let me remind you... This is impossible. Although you are the creator, the framework still exists. You can't jump out of the framework to do other things, such as suddenly making the guy who shouldn't be stronger stronger, or killing the particularly powerful guy."
"What if he is not particularly powerful?" Li Nuo asked.
"Not as good as yours... It is likely that you can." The staff didn't know what was going to happen.
[Personal Main Quest: Cartoonist]
[When the popularity exceeds 20%, you can switch to the screen of the comic world]
Li Nuo drew a picture frame on a piece of white paper and wrote on it: At the same time, the apes who peeked at "Miens City"...
The audience thought the story was over, but a new chapter suddenly opened here.
The picture came to the spaceship.
The apes sat together and discussed the matter of the chimera ants.
"That guy is dead."
The gorilla in the working group reported back the news.
The death of the ant king was photographed.
A sturdy chimpanzee sat on the sofa, holding a chocolate popsicle in his mouth, sucking smoke out of the popsicle.
"I was scared to death just now. The power of the chimera ant king could overturn the spaceship."
A white-haired gorilla opposite him said: "It will be easy next time."
A chimpanzee across the street said: "Yes, as long as we catch the people who know the answer, and then disperse the city, and then build a large amusement park, hehe... just think about it and you can make a fortune."
The gorilla enterprise once used this method to force Cairo uncle to almost lose his family.
And now, this group of guys have set their sights on the entire city, blaming the contradictions of the problem on the "Cairo Ramen Shop" and those "players" who made trouble, using the storm of public opinion to divert attention, and when everyone understands, the entire city has become their cash cow.
The sturdy chimpanzee picked up the phone, and the banana-shaped phone connected to the company headquarters.
The scene changed.
The president of Gorilla Enterprise, Star, who is also the princess's father, picked up the phone.
"Find the body of the ant king. Its genes can be used to make weapons."
"Also, don't forget about the energy gem."
Li Nuo looked at this scene, took out the marbles from his pocket, and flicked the so-called "energy gem" to the staff.
"Your reward."
"That's it?" The staff was unhappy: "Who wants this thing?"
Li Nuo smiled, looked at the gorillas in the painting, and said: "They want it."
As he spoke, he unscrewed the white ink cap, picked up the brush and dotted it in the ink.
The brush crossed the last few pages of the picture frame.
The spaceship over the city of Minas disappeared.
The president of the gorilla disappeared.
The third party, Gorilla Enterprise, disappeared completely.
Li Nuo threw the brush into the thermos cup.
The mission of the Warrior of Light is over.
The comic ends.
