As a player, can you be normal?

Chapter 428: The End Corridor
The train is on its way.

Amuro remained kneeling on the ground.

The train compartment was in an elegant European style, with plain white walls, window frames wrapped in dark brown wood, and dark red sofas embroidered with gold thread. It looked delicate, warm, and elegant, but Amuro's kneeling made the whole room awkward. The air seemed to be condensing, and the sound of the wheels rolling over the rails was exceptionally clear.

Cha Bai's eyes widened... Things turned out too abruptly, there was no reason to kneel down when meeting...

She looked at Li Nuo and found that Li Nuo's eyes were gradually becoming colder.

Li Nuoren is going bad.

In his understanding, he was the only one who had reason to kneel before others, and the only one in the world who could kneel before him was Cha Bai.

"You bastard are destroying the beauty in my heart..."

“Ah no!” Amuro panicked: “Xiao He’s sudden move was beyond my expectation, so…”

"That's how the boss is..." Nova appeared outside the door. This woman had scars on her face, which were the same as the scars on Li Nuo's face, caused by the "Corridor of Death".

"Nova..." Amuro turned around.

In addition to Nova, there was another muscular man standing at the door. His body blocked the entire door. He was nearly two meters and five meters tall, had a big beard, was fat and strong, had a bald head, wore a suit, and held a chocolate lollipop in his mouth.

The person who comes has bad intentions, but is not dangerous.

"Shut up, boss... You're embarrassing yourself." Nova took a deep breath, looked at Li Nuo, and answered a puzzle first: "Sorry, demon hunter. It's just a little trick. We were worried that you would kill someone without saying a word."

Nova pulled out a small bottle with a label that read "Demon Hunter's Nemesis."

"Aromatherapy, a gas specially made to block the demon hunter's sense of smell, is not prepared for you."

"Phil?"

"It seems you have seen it..."

Nova put away the bottle and glanced at Xiao He who was still hiding nearby. The girl was still baring her teeth because she was stimulated by Li Nuo's danger.

"come over."

Nova said coldly, and Xiao He took a deep breath like a frightened bird, jumped off the windowsill obediently, and walked to the door like a child who had made a mistake. When she passed by Amuro, she said, "Boss... you have hurt me so much..."

Amuro whispered, "I'm sorry..."

Li Nuo glanced at Nova.

The data is very strong, but he can only be the second in command.

Amuro kneeling on the ground is stronger, and a level stronger.

Li Nuo took a deep breath: "Tell me...what's the matter."

Amuro raised his head, stared at Li Nuo, and said seriously: "I want to cooperate with you!"

Li Nuo: "..."

The train has left the city center. The skyscrapers outside the window are like giants moving backwards. The sun shines on Malu Market. The number of pedestrians gradually decreases, and in the blink of an eye, we have arrived in the countryside.

Li Nuo stared with dead eyes.

The direction of the world war has completely exceeded his expectations. At first, he thought there would be rivers of blood, so he used large meteorites. Later, he began to think about the Church of the Undead, but he still thought that the players were the main opponents, until now...

The players don't seem to be planning to fight...

"Hey..." Li Nuo glanced at Amuro who was sitting opposite him and said unhappily, "Can you stop being so shy?"

Amuro looked nervous and even shy, just like his mother's son.

"Sorry... I'll get straight to the point."

Amuro paused, his expression gradually relaxed and became extremely serious.

"Although the script does not give us the next main mission, but based on the intelligence analysis of the 'Undead Church', I think if our group of players do not cooperate, we will be wiped out."

Li Nuo held his chin and looked out the window, nodding slightly.

He always had a feeling of wandering endlessly in the big ward.

Amuro carefully took out a piece of newspaper from his inner pocket. It had some writing and drawings on it. It was the briefing he had made.

"I analyzed the combat power of the Church of the Undead. The ability of the cleaners is roughly equivalent to the regular power of our players at level 70. They are even stronger after awakening. Oh, I am using the average combat power of our End of the World as a benchmark. Please don't mind it. After all, the Endless Corridor can produce people like you two, which is really...ah, it's hard to get a ticket?"

Cha Bai: "It is rare and precious."

"Ah... yes, it's rare anyway." Amuro continued, "I've seen Etta and Pippen before. You should have been looking at us through a telescope at the time, so there's no need to say more. Those two..."

"Very strong." Li Nuo said, "I understand. Phil, I've seen them too. They're very strong. Only a group of people from the Sky Corridor have not seen them. But they almost wiped out another group of people on our side. They're also very strong. They're all equally matched. If they start fighting, there's no way to end it."

"That's right..." Amuro lowered his head. "Actually, I should thank you for destroying 'Eternal Life' and 'Death'. If the five corridors had boarded the car..."

Cha Bai continued, "If all five corridors are there, the threat level of the cult will be greatly reduced, and cooperation will be unnecessary."

"Yes……"

Amuro nodded.

"I consulted with my seniors, and they said that there is no punishment mechanism in the world war."

He pulled the white flag from his pocket.

"The white flag handed by the system can be used to surrender. The weak surrender, and the strong add the weak into their own team to execute the scenario. The strong take the benefits, and the weak save their lives. In fact, the difficulty of the world war comes from the scenario itself, not the fighting between players."

Li Nuo thought of Lillian's advice. That damn president mentioned that world war is not about fighting and killing, but about human relationships and worldly wisdom...

"Ah... so the script itself is difficult, right?"

"That's exactly what I'm worried about!" Amuro took a deep breath and said, "Castlevania is the theme of this script!"

When Amuro was talking excitedly, he slammed the table and stared at Li Nuo, who felt embarrassed and shifted his gaze to the window.

Silence swept over...

It wasn't until Chabai pulled Linuo's sleeve that he looked at Amuro.

"I've thought about it... Although it's called Castlevania, if you break down the setting of that world, it can be understood as a 'maze' exploration and a fight between various 'other world' creatures. The difficulty is unpredictable, and the cult seems to be able to summon the 'eternal world', which is to summon 'hell'."

Anyone who has come into contact with things like "Border Prison" will understand that it covers chaos from all kinds of worlds and all kinds of malice can appear there.

Just like the "Creation Mountain", because of the invasion of the "Border Prison", the creatures in that world have evolved in various mysterious ways.

Amuro sat down, his eyes returning to their previous cowardly look.

"So, if the difficulty was five corridors at the beginning, the script would be extremely difficult. Now there are only three corridors. If we don't cooperate, we won't be able to pass this level."

He sounded like a coward.

"I agree……"

"real!?"

"Hmm..." Li Nuo nodded: "Your companions are still outside the door. If I don't agree, they will take action immediately."

Amuro: "I will stop them, please believe me... I really don't intend to attack you."

Li Nuo said: "I don't want to cause trouble before everything starts, so whatever."

Amuro took a deep breath and collapsed on the sofa as if he had been saved.

"Very good……"

Li Nuo looked at him silently.

Amuro spoke to himself, "I was just worried that you and Phil might get into a fight. That would be troublesome... so the first thing I did when I got in the car was to look for you."

"Is there another reason?" Li Nuo said, "Kneeling is not for cooperation, lowering your posture is to entrust others to do things."

Amuro's expression was numb, and then he showed a helpless smile.

"You saw it."

"Tell me, is it related to the 'Endless Corridor'?"

"Do you know Croyd?"

Cha Bai subconsciously turned his gaze to the window.

"died."

The whistle suddenly sounded.

The wheels rolled over the rails, kicking up dust. Outside the window was a field with water flowing beside the grass, like a white line imprinted in the azure pupils, and finally interrupted by the approaching woods.

"died……"

Amuro took a deep breath and looked at Li Nuo disappointedly.

"Ah."

"Pity……"

"I'm quite interested." After hearing what Li Nuo said, Amuro told him everything without thinking.

"He had entered our script as an [intruder] before. Kroyd gave me a very strange sense of obsession. He seemed to want to hold everything in his hands. He was sensitive and afraid of everything. On the surface, he was a cold person, but in fact, he was a coward."

Very pertinent, Li Nuo agreed.

"continue."

"His level was about ten levels higher than mine at the time, but I defeated him..."

Li Nuo's eyes were dull and he was not surprised at all. The answer given by Amuro was not outrageous at all. There was no problem for him to be stronger than Kroyd.

[Amuro Wa: lv77]

【Strength: 122】

[Reaction: 196]

[Spiritual power: 199]

[Physique: 188]

【Insight: 239】

【Medical: 201】

Is the data weak?

weak.

In fact, it is the strength of ordinary players.

At level 77, even if 3 attribute points are added for each level, the highest attribute value is only 231. Taking into account the characteristic values, some items may be higher, but this is the strength of ordinary players.

Amuro's strength lies in his skills.

There is also someone similar to him in the "Endless Corridor".

Nanami.

They are all typical examples of using skills to supplement combat effectiveness.

Nanami's skills are directly reflected on the panel, while Amuro's are hidden deeper. The former is about active attack, while the latter is about passive defense. One is indestructible, and the other is immortal.

Amuro said: "Kroyd has a personality problem. He doesn't trust anyone, which leads him to believe only in the prophecy of the [Critical Person]. But he is also an ambitious person. In the end, he will only become a tool for those in higher positions."

Li Nuo asked: "So? You want to entrust me to save him?"

Amuro nodded.

"But it was too late. He died."

He smiled bitterly, as if it was all his fault.

"After he lost to me, he threatened to find the 'Immortal Slash' to defeat me. At that time, I felt that something was wrong with Kroyd... I led someone astray, and it felt terrible."

Li Nuo and Cha Bai looked at each other subconsciously, and slowly moved towards each other. It was the first time they faced a real "Saint Mary". The embarrassment turned into a chill that poured into every pore, and their brains uncontrollably made their bodies shiver at the same time.

The two of them looked for changes on each other's faces, especially Cha Bai. She found Li Nuo's micro-expression changes particularly interesting. She felt she had never seen it before and wanted to remember it in her mind, but in the end, the two of them just curled their lips and tried their best to hold back their laughter.

Amuro also understood what the person on the other side was thinking.

"You must think I'm unreasonable, right?"

"Ah."

"In other words, the people in the 'End Corridor' shouldn't be like this. They are all a bunch of lunatics, a bunch of bastards who don't take their lives seriously and are fooling around all day long."

Amuro smiled.

"Right?"

This time, it was Cha Bai who took over:

"At least the ones we met before were indeed crazy people."

Amuro: "Excuse me, but you're walking around in public without showing your face, making you look more like a lunatic than anyone else."

Cha Bai sign language.

Her face was covered tightly, with a mask to protect against poison gas, a beret to protect against sonic attacks, and an eyepatch as standard equipment for the YoRHa troops.

From the player's perspective, her dress is very reasonable. Even from a personal perspective, she just wants to give herself a sense of security. But in the eyes of others, she is a lunatic, otherwise she would not have been taken away by the police at the station.

"Okay...you're right, I might really be a lunatic." Cha Bai thought to himself that birds of a feather flock together.

Amuro looked at Lino.

"The hostility in your eyes is simply terrifying. You are even more cold-blooded than a madman, but when you look at the lady with white hair, there is only romance and beauty in your eyes. A person with such an extremely contradictory personality, do you think he is normal?"

Li Nuo tilted his head.

"It's abnormal in theory, but normal in practice."

Amuro remained unmoved and continued speaking.

"Who looks more crazy, me or you?"

Li Nuo said without hesitation:

"us."

But Amuro is the most abnormal one in "The Corridor of the End" and even in the entire player community.

Amuro nodded, just immersed in his own statement.

"Players who have reached our stage are actually different from normal people in spirit. It has nothing to do with which corridor you were born in. It's because your previous experience has already labeled you as 'abnormal human beings'. In the final analysis, we are just a group of mediocre people who are too self-righteous."

Amuro looked down, his eyes fixed on the sunlight on the table.

"The madness of 'End' comes from the limitations of the system. It's not that we are born different. But after reaching level 60, the differences between people in each corridor are no longer that huge."

Li Nuo was silent, thinking: That's because you don't know Maljie...

But he still agreed with Amuro's statement.

Cha Bai was curious: "What's going on with the End's system?"

"Don't you know?" Amuro said, "If we fail to complete the mission, we may be wiped out or our organs will be harvested. The rewards are also average. In short, we have to play with our lives according to the script, so we have a group of mentally ill guys. But in comparison, I think you guys who come up and hit people with a big meteorite are more abnormal."

Li Nuo: "Hey... there's no need to turn to us."

Amuro smiled and scratched his head. "Sorry, I didn't mean it. Anyway, the real problem in our corridor is the guild. Our guild is just a decoration. Everything is controlled by the administrator."

Manager...Li Nuo thought of the king.

"That guy seems to be called 'Demon'. I am not qualified to see him now, but the reason for 'End's' madness is largely because of him."

Amuro took a deep breath and closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his eyes were blazing.

"My dream is to defeat him, reformulate the policy of the 'Endless Corridor', and make it the second 'Endless Corridor'!"

Li Nuo: "..."

Chabai: "..."

Outside the door, Nova and the other two looked at the scenery outside the window, each with a blank expression on their face.

Xiao He said listlessly, "Boss, how embarrassing."

The big guy echoed, "I'm used to it."

Nova's face flushed: "I love him, I want to put on a fake penis and poke him..."

The big guy looked at her with a hollow look: "Sister Nova, don't be like this."

In the room.

Amuro blinked and looked hard at Li Nuo and Cha Bai, trying to find recognition in their eyes.

After a moment, Li Nuo smiled and nodded: "You are really amazing."

In fact, I was thinking: As expected of a Federation pilot, Amuro is the most abnormal one... Don't mess with this guy, absolutely don't mess with him, he and Malger have the same type of mental state...

Amuro said: "In short, all the players who can survive here must have some problems with their brains..."

Li Nuo thought of Rick...

About ten minutes ago, when getting in the car, Die sent a video. The poor guy Rick accidentally discovered a cave while fighting with the villagers in the nameless village. At this time, he was being beaten by the cave guards... Not only did Die not help, she also took a photo with the beaten Rick, and used the photo retouching software on her mobile phone to beautify the skin.

"Mr. Li Nuo?"

"what?"

Lino was awakened by Amuro.

"Anyway, it's a collaboration, right?"

"The first target is the cult group. As for the players' problems, just follow your feelings."

Li Nuo looked towards the door.

"Your group of companions are hard to control, right?"

The implication is whether Amuro's teammates will abide by the agreement. That's hard to say. Moreover, if there is a conflict of interest, you should fight for it, just don't make groundless attacks.

"I try my best."

Amuro nodded. He got an answer that made him feel at ease, and he thought that the "normality" he had shown was enough to reassure the other party.
