The Age of Machines

Chapter 969 Doubt
"This is the first time I've seen a monster like you."

After Liu Xin finished speaking, she stared at Neuer's face without looking away for a moment.Until the monster sat in front of her calmly, with one hand on his knee, very casually.

"The last big war, how many years ago was that? I don't think you were born yet... You haven't experienced war, have you?"

Liu Xin stared at him without speaking.

Neuer continued: "I was still young at the time." He touched his chin and said casually to himself. "It's probably just turned a hundred years old, and I can't go to battle yet. This is the first time I have seen real humans...Although many humans were captured to the abyss at that time, they all looked weird because they were bathed in darkness."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Liu Xin with a strange look in his eyes.

Neuer wanted to speak at first, but he couldn't help but paused after meeting her eyes. "What's wrong?"

Liu Xin pouted, out of surprise and surprise. "I didn't expect to be a grandpa-level person, and still have such a young and handsome human appearance, don't you feel ashamed?"

Neuer was taken aback for a moment, then laughed loudly and said, "Do you think any race has the same short lifespan as your humans? The 100 years of our monsters is only eleven or two years old for your humans."

Liu Xin was disdainful, "So what, he's still an Ou Jisang."

"What do you mean? Is it a common saying among you humans?" Neuer didn't understand.

Liu Xin stared at him, thinking: This should be an NPC, right? But why is there no more missions?
If there is no mission, how on earth is she going to leave this place.Waiting for Liu Guang and the others to come over probably takes a day... maybe more than that.

The monster is so alert that it will stun her whenever it leaves the place.Every time I wake up, I will basically be in front of her.If things go on like this, Liu Xin feels that she has no way to escape from here, and her life is very worrying.

After all, she is a human player, and the others in this area are all monsters.

"The language of another world." Liu Xin tentatively asked.

"Another world?" Neuer was puzzled.

"Want to know?" Liu Xin looked at him with raised eyebrows.

Neuer's dark red pupils suddenly brightened. "you say."

Leaning against the end of the bed, Liu Xin motioned him to look at the ropes on her feet.

"Untie it for me first."

Neuer's pupils were dimmed, and he looked at Liu Xin, "This is not acceptable, what should you do if you escape?"

Liu Xin showed a tired expression, and said helplessly: "You tied me up like this, I can't move all the time, and I am also very tired to talk to you."

Neuer firmly vetoed it. "don't want!"

Liu Xin simply closed her eyes, lay down on the black carpet, and said without emotion: "Then I'm going to rest, you go out. It's also very hard for me to talk like this!"

There was silence in the tent for a minute.

Liu Xin closed her eyes, thinking that she couldn't even send messages in this state, how to notify the president and the others? And she couldn't even get out of this tent...

Greeting this monster named Neuer hundreds of times in her heart, Liuxin felt that the other party's eyes kept falling on her, but she kept enduring it.

until…

"Get up, I'll untie it for you."

Liu Xin slowly opened her eyes, Neuer showed a helpless face.He drew a dagger from his belt.

Liu Xin wanted to get up, but found that she had no strength...

Struggling, Neuer directly helped her up, and the dagger touched her wrist, making Liu Xin tremble slightly.In the next second, I only felt the rope tied to my hand fall.

Then he untied Liu Xin from the shackles on his feet.

Rubbing her wrists, Liu Xin finally felt comfortable.Seeing that Neuer hadn't said anything, he took out a ring, "Put this on."

Liu Guang was taken aback for a moment, then stared at the dragon pattern ring on his palm, "What is this?"

"The conditions to untie you."

"I didn't promise you..."

Neuer said: "Promise or not, you don't have the right to choose. You can either wear it or be tied up. Choose one."

Liu Xin felt that the ring was not very good.

But compared to being tied up, Liu Xin gritted her teeth and reached out to Neuer, "Here."

Neuer handed it to her.

Ding, you have obtained [Nightmare Ring].

[Nightmare Ring]: A ring with special functions.It has the effects [Suppression] and [Deprivation].The effect can be seen after wearing it.

Liu Xin: ...

Under Neuer's gaze, he stretched out his finger and put it on.The moment the ring was put on, Liu Guang received a reminder.

Ding, you get the effects of [Suppression] and [Deprivation].

[Inhibition]: Normal movement reduced to 30.00%.

[Deprivation]: Deprives the wearer of all abilities.

The streamer froze slightly, what do you mean?
Neuer looked at Liu Guang, "You are now in the monster camp. It is best not to set foot in places other than my territory."

Liu Guang replied: "I don't need you to tell me."

To go out is to die, of course she knows it well.There are monsters outside, high-level monsters may be able to communicate, but low-level monsters will pounce on humans no matter who she is.

Liu Guang hasn't figured out the situation yet, so of course he won't walk around randomly.

Neuer smiled.

"As long as you know."

Liu Guang looked at him, "Are you really relieved to let me go?"

Neuer raised his eyebrows and said: "It seems that you haven't understood the meaning of the ring. But it's okay, you will understand later. I'll get you some food now, wait for me here, don't run around."

After speaking, he got up and left.

This time, she was not stunned again.

Liu Guang pondered what he said before he left, but couldn't think of anything.I thought about contacting Liu Guang and the others as soon as possible.

Ding, the communication function cannot be used.

Liu Xin: "Huh?"

Ding, the communication function cannot be used.

Ding, the communication function cannot be used.

Ding,……

After countless times, Liu Xin had to accept the fact that she couldn't communicate with the outside world. "It's okay, this girl can run away by herself..."

She got up and tiptoed to the edge of the tent, slightly opening a gap.There are monsters guarding both sides...

As far as the eye can see is the army of monsters, constantly patrolling the tent area.In the open space not far away, a group of monsters sat around the fire, discussing something unknown.

Liu Xin thought about how these monsters are like them, at this moment, she cast her eyes on her side, and as soon as the eyes met, she felt the killing intent of the other party.Surprised, Liu put down the tent and quickly took two steps back.

"Wow, I'm going to die. There are so many monsters, how can I escape?"

There is nothing in her mechanical beast that can be invisible...

His eyes fell to the ground.

Liu Guang's eyes suddenly lit up, and he clapped his hands, "Yes, you can escape by digging into a hole." Having found a good way, Liu Guang happily prepared to summon the mechanical beast, but sadly found himself, summon! Call! No! Come! Come!
Silence for a long time.

Liu Xin covered her face and said in horror: "How could it be?"

When I opened the skill bar, I found that all three rows of skills were locked and turned gray.That is, unusable.

Liu Xin's expression changed drastically, and she pulled out the short gun from the holster on the outside of her thigh, only to find that it no longer had any magic power.And the system has been promoting her.

Ding, the ability is deprived, unable to use weapons.

Ding, the ability is deprived, unable to use weapons.

Liu Guang put the weapon back into the holster with a sullen expression.

Looking at his hands, the silver mechanical gloves also lost their brilliance and looked dull.

"deprivation…"

She finally understood what it meant.

When Neuer entered the tent with a tray of snacks, he saw Liu Xin staring at his hands with a dull expression.

"Looks like you found it."

Liu Guang suddenly looked up at him, strode up and grabbed his collar. "How do you get this ring off?"

Neuer looked at her calmly, "Only I can pick it."

Liu Guang gritted his teeth.

Neuer stared at her and said with a smile: "Your mind is full of running away, I can still see it." It handed her the plate in his hand, "Eat a little. This place is very demonic, you can absorb it if you touch it." Too much and it will become demonized."

Liu Guang let go of him, and said cautiously: "Don't eat."

"Don't be wary of me." Neuer's lips curled up, "In this place, I am the only one who can protect you. I don't want the plaything I caught to be assimilated into the same kind soon. It's boring."

plaything?
Liu Guang took a deep breath, "Don't eat."

Turning around, he walked to the carpet sullenly, and sat down on his buttocks. "When are you going to kill me?"

As Liu Xin said, her left hand rubbed the ring on the index finger of her right hand, exerting strength secretly, but found that she couldn't take it off at all.I thought: This monster really didn't lie to her.

Of course Neuer noticed her action, and didn't bother to reveal it, so he put the snacks on a round table.

"Why did I kill you?"

"Then why did you bring me here?"

Neuer smiled, "It's fun. Take a look at what human beings look like."

Liu Xin touched the ring, "Then you can arrest other people, but it's me?" After waiting for Fan Zi to leave, she appeared to arrest her, wasn't it just waiting for her on purpose, targeted?
"It just so happened that you came."

Liu Xin looked at him, "If you don't kill me, what are you going to do with me?"

Neuer touched his chin, his face with tattoos looked evil because of his smile. "Oh, probably, you can be kept as a pet."

Liu Xin didn't speak.

He looked down at the ring thoughtfully.

Neuer walked up to her, "Eat a little of those things. It has a holy purification effect, which can keep you from being affected by magic energy for a certain period of time."

"Neuil..."

There was a sound from outside the tent.Neuer was taken aback, as if he knew who the owner of the voice was, looked at Liu Xin and said, "You remember to eat, I'll go out for a while."

When the curtain fell, she was the only one left in the tent.

In the dim light, Liu Xin's eyes fell on the snacks on the table.After thinking for more than ten seconds, he got up and walked to the table, picked up a piece of snack and looked at it.

There is indeed divine power...

How did a monster get these things?
Liu Xin took the soft snack and thought deeply.Liu Guang told her to let her test whether the opponent is an NPC or a human. At this point, it means to find out whether the monster is an NPC in the game or a player?
Do players have this ability?
Where did he go to get this food that can purify magic energy? Currently, even they don't have such props for sale in Lecheng.

Although the game of Shengshi has high autonomy, it is still rare to see this kind of situation.But there is also a situation... Some people are the same as players, but they are somewhat different in nature. In the game, they can exercise much more rights than players.

[GM] Commonly known as a player, a game manager.

is it possible
Liu Xin was not sure, but she felt the need to try it out.Otherwise some things really don't make sense.Looking at the dessert, he opened his mouth and swallowed it in one gulp.

Ding, you have gained the [Purification] ability, and you will not be affected by magic energy for an hour.Magic resistance +102.

Liu Xin squinted and doubted Neuer's identity even more.

Go over to the rug and sit down.

Five minutes later, Neuer entered, glanced at the snacks on the table, then looked at Liu Xin and said, "Not bad, very obedient."

Liuxin's posture is casual and undisciplined.

"When are you going to fight?"

"what?"

"Fighting the orc tribe? When are you going to fight?"

Neuer raised his eyebrows, "Why do you ask this?"

Liu Xin held her head and said with a smile: "I want to know when I can get out of here. I feel very boring."

"Then you can sleep."

"I don't dare to sleep peacefully on the monster's territory. What? I can't contact anyone now, so you still need to worry that I will leak your information?"

"You'll regret it if you don't tell me."

Neuer stared at her, waiting for what to say.

Liu Xin also continued: "You are not interested in killing me, it doesn't mean that other monsters are not interested, right? Anyway, I would rather die if I stay here, so it's a big deal for myself. Anyway, I'm quite curious about what happens after demonization. What does it look like. Even if I’m missing from the mechanical age, it’s no big deal.”

Neuer was silent for two seconds.

"Then I'll tie you up."

Liu Xin blinked, "Speaking of which, the player has a self-injury system. Even if you tie me up, I can kill myself." Liu Xin smiled happily. "In an area with such a strong demonic energy, once the player dies, they will be instantly demonized."

Neuer looked at her, "Probably in the evening, the orc tribe will be taken over in one pot. Now it's just consuming them. So, is it okay?"

Liu Guang raised his eyes, looked straight at him and said coolly, "You know what a player is."

Neuer was still very calm, "I don't know."

"You know." Liu Xin got up and looked at Neuer. "No matter what level of intelligence NPC is, they will definitely express doubts about [player]'s similar statement. You have not raised any doubts about what the mechanical age is."

"If these can't be explained, then the ring on my hand and the snacks on the table. Can you explain why the game props are all locked and unable to be viewed and used even with my communication function and channel function? Karans doesn't care which one is the snack. There is no way to sell them in the city, and you, a monster, can still make sacred snacks?"

A look of surprise flashed across Neuer's face, although Liu Xin noticed it quickly.

Liu Xin walked in front of him.

"Are you a player or a GM?"

Neuer said calmly: "I don't know what you are talking about."

"Don't admit it, right?"

Liu Xin sneered, "I'm going offline now and call the game company's customer service. The game administrators use their power without authorization to prevent players from having a normal game experience."

Neuer quickly grabbed him. "Wait!"

Liu Xin glared at him, "Say, what the hell are you?"

Look at each other for a few seconds...

Neuer gave a wry smile, raised his forehead and said, "It seems smarter than I thought. I dug a hole myself..."
