As a player, can you be normal?

Chapter 548: Anti-Science Alliance, the Leader is a Dog
It is not uncommon for players to be put into Poké Balls.

Pokémon that are not captured by players are not eligible to enter the academy area.

Maljie is in a semicircular house.

He could hear what the stupid pair of thieves were saying.

Basically, Dust and Merry's hometown is a village near the evil ruins. That village is in a crappy location at the border of the country and has been plagued by monsters and demons for many years.

Duster and Merry pedaled the spare bicycles they had prepared in the dense forest. The air they sprayed rose into the air. Under the moonlight and the sea of ​​clouds, the two men headed towards their hometown with the faith of the believers.

[Side quest has been triggered: Save the village from the evil minions]

【Everything is a question mark】

[This task is undertaken by an individual]

It was a strange side quest, and Maljie didn’t think much about it. He would know the ins and outs of it once he got there.

He took a cigarette out of the dog's ear, sat on the blanket and lit it.

[Player 5899 has been conquered by the natives]

[Since you are a "divine beast", you can be disobedient. After you go out, you can destroy the Poké Ball and cancel the relationship with the trainer.]

[If you choose to obey the trainer, you can gain "bonds with this world"]

The thing that Maljie cares about most has arrived.

He wanted to know whether the group of believers who were powerful enough to form an army could be summoned freely.

[Acquired Skills: Faith Summoner]

[Type: Active Skills]

[Effect: Dust and Merry are your agents in this world. Once you feel there is a risk, you can use this skill to send them dreams to establish a connection with this world, and then you can summon some of the followers of "Soul of Steel"]

[Limited conditions: In this world, believers can summon thousands of people, but if they leave this world, the number of summoned believers will be greatly reduced. If the world strength is extremely low, the number of summons will be reduced. Conversely, if the world strength is high, the number of summons will be increased.]

[Brief description: One day in the future, the Church of Steel Soul will bring a devastating disaster to the world]

From the "Brief Description", we can see that the danger of the evil spirits is far less than that of the "mechanical cult". The former is too sharp, while the latter is a hidden knife. Its destructiveness to the world comes from cultural invasion rather than simple force.

Malger couldn't imagine what would happen in the future that would cause his church to destroy the world.

Anyway, it has nothing to do with him for the time being.

The place we are going to now is the village near the evil ruins.

Maljie went first as a pathfinder, while Li Nuo and the others continued to cause trouble.

……

It is best for a god to disappear first before leaving.

Malja's capture certainly helped.

Nanami put away the communication signal, took off the communicator on her collar and stuffed it into the pocket of her shorts, then sighed lightly.

"Are you done yet?"

"No."

Cha Bai sat next to her, and the two of them found a flooded rooftop.

"I……"

Cha Bai looked at his legs with a somewhat dazed look in his eyes.

"My legs won't let me walk."

“It’s too much of a burden.”

Nanami gave the answer.

"When I was training with Cassius, my master told me that if you release the energy in your body multiple times in a short period of time without restraint, the final result will be... damage to your body."

She carried Cha Bai on her back.

"Good weight."

"Thank you."

"I haven't finished yet, do you want to listen to it?"

Nanami asked.

Cha Bai uttered a soft "hmm".

"Remember, my hands and feet were all mechanical at the time. I didn't feel muscle fatigue, but I got used to my dependence on the body."

"You mean... I see."

"Li Nuo must not have told you, right?" Nanami shook Cha Bai on her back and walked downstairs: "That guy doted on you. He promised to do whatever you wanted, and made plans to protect you in the process. Look...that bastard didn't even fight, wasn't it just to preserve his strength?"

"I know this."

Chabai understood Nanami's other meaning.

She was a robot at the beginning, and now flesh and blood make up most of her body, but she still retains the reckless fighting style from her days as an artificial human.

"It's outdated... I have to change it."

Nanami nodded.

"Master said that how to control breath and energy determines the survival rate when facing a master. For example, when I open the [Realm of Reason], I try not to use the [Qilin Kung Fu], gather the breath, release the breath, and solve the problem with one strike at the most critical moment. Well, in fact, Li Nuo has always done this, but you do the opposite."

Cha Bai is the kind of person who will start beating people to death right away, without distinguishing between friend and foe.

It was understandable that she had just activated the full potential of [Space Replacement], but considering that she had used a large number of powerful moves in the past two weeks, no matter how strong the magic factor in her body was, it would take a while for her to recover.

Today is not like a year ago. Back then it was a digital age and players could rely on [Blood Potion] and [Ether] to sustain themselves. When the level reaches this stage, the effects of potions are weakened to the point where they can be ignored, and players have to rely on themselves to sustain themselves.

"By the way, aren't you going back?"

"Heh, I've been pushing my work back since you guys started working on the script."

Nanami knew the character of Li Nuo and the others very well, and she was sure that they would cause some trouble.

She is a tsundere who has retired from the environment, but she is actually worried to death from the bottom of her heart.

Downstairs stood the scruffy doctor.

"Ah, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

This doctor was the culprit who treated Li Nuo's eyes and brought Li Nuo to prison.

There was a burly guy next to the doctor. He was an archaeologist.

"Can you tell me what Article 16 is about the disappearance of doctrine?"

Cha Bai: "Sorry, I don't understand it either."

The doctor sent his companion away and whispered, "Is the witcher not here?"

Nanami glanced at Cha Bai who was on her back, meaning: You speak.

Cha Bai said, "The god you believe in has to withdraw for the time being, so let's not talk about the demon hunters."

"I think so too," the doctor said. "I am still relatively sober, but they are different. Tens of thousands of people want to kill the witcher. What should we do next?"

He lit a cigarette.

"I'm a doctor, and doctors have as much say in this church as the pope, so I'm considered one of the leaders now."

According to the "Soul of Steel" doctrine, the Doctor is sacred, and even Pope Winston cannot deviate from the instructions of the doctrine.

Looking around, the city has been destroyed.

But the citizens and believers in the flood were not discouraged. Destruction was the first step to recasting. Everyone was looking at Cha Bai with this idea in mind. There might be tens of thousands of eyes staring at this white-haired witch for instructions.

Cha Bai was speechless for a moment.

She had never given orders to so many people.

While Cha Bai was organizing her words, Li Nuo's voice rang out from her earring microphone: "It's up to you to decide."

"Then..."

Cha Bai took a deep breath.

"Please collect enough secret treasures from this world within two weeks, and then go to the Pilgrim Town in the Obsidian Country to meet up."

Nanami was shocked: "Mobilize a group of psychopaths to harm the entire continent?"

Cha Bai: "Shh."

"That's it."

The matter was decided. For these guys who used Belia City-State as their base, going out would only bring disaster to that city. The believers of Steel Soul were all insane, because as long as they believed it was the right thing to do, they would ignore the law, which was equivalent to liberating the largest prison in the country.

All for freedom.

Cha Bai lay on Nanami's back, his pupils sweeping over the mess and the cultists. The players' destructive power might not have been fully explored yet. After all, that bastard named Li hasn't used his strength yet.

……

"This move by my sister-in-law has attracted a bunch of lickers."

Wells heard Cha Bai's instructions to the believers through Li Nuo's external communicator.

"Their leaders are all dogs. Isn't being a licker just the right balance for the creatures?"

Lino and Wales stood above the hole left by the giant fortress, and the moved island covered it like a hat.

The two's target is an isolated island.

There is a cave on the island. Li Nuo used his glasses to see that there is a branch line in the cave, which means there is a treasure chest inside.

The two men stood in front of the cave, and Wells walked in. It was so dark that he was almost invisible.

"Brother, you can go back now."

"There's nothing to do when I get home."

Li Nuo found a topic to divert attention so as not to laugh at Wells who was hiding in the shadows.

"Brother, you're invisible. Are you a ninja? Come on, smile and let me see if your teeth can reflect light in the dark."

He still couldn't hold it back.

Wells really smiled with his white teeth.

The two of them walked into the cave while chatting nonsense. On the way, Li Nuo kept testing the insight that had just broken through 500.

After the attribute value exceeds 500, the sense of promotion returns, and the perception of danger is slightly improved.

He had asked about Soran before. After the attribute value increased by 500, new mechanisms would be introduced for skill learning and derivation, and the ability improvement effect would increase at a slower rate.

However, there are still few players with attribute values ​​above 500 in "Endless Corridor".

At least at Li Nuo and the others' current level, it is out of reach.

Taoist priest Wang Li from Tanggula Mountain must be qualified, but he doesn't want to say. Tanggula Mountain is dangerous, so there is no need to ask more questions.

A bug fell from the stalactite-like rock. Li Nuo slapped it to death. The bug's blood formed particles. Wells, who was standing by, had a dazed look in his eyes, but Li Nuo was fine.

"After the insects die, they will spread hallucinogenic particles?"

Li Nuo observed the bugs crawling inside the cracks of the rocks in the dark. The things in this world are always so strange that they are jaw-dropping.

With the "curse" resistance he just gained plus the resistance of the priest's robe to curses, he can basically say goodbye to curses from now on. Spells and the like are ineffective against Li Nuo, unless someone pays him to slap him in the face and force himself to daydream.

Wells began to dance in place, striptease.

Insects crawled out from the cracks in the rocks, wanting to eat the old black man.

Li Nuo then placed the Cross of Holy Light on the dancing Wells' nipple and chanted, "Your mother is calling you to go home for dinner."

Wells suddenly woke up.

The player's improvement is maximized in the "Border Prison Scenario". This is what Soran said. A large number of powerful players have emerged from the Border Prison Scenario. If there must be an exception, there is one, such as Taoist Master Wang Li. The Taoist master was hunted by the Cairo aliens for decades and was forced to practice [Critical 3.0]. In the endless pursuit and nightmare of funny creatures, he also practiced a skill that exceeded the level limit.

Li Nuo reviewed all the information he had seen before in his mind. He did not realize that it was actually the insights above 500 that made his concentration more dispersed.

The destructive power displayed by Wang Li was different from what Li Nuo had imagined.

He originally thought that Wang Li would do something big like cutting through space with one sword, but it was still basic destructive power. Assuming Wang Li only used 50% of his strength, at most he could split the Tanggula Mountain in two at full strength, which was far from the "Saiyan" level of strength that Li Nuo expected.

Li Nuo has been looking forward to getting in touch with the world of "Dragon Ball" and he wants to learn the [Magic Light Cannon].

However, after being a gamer for such a long time, I have never heard of anyone entering the world of "Dragon Ball", and even rarely heard of the "Marvel" universe.

"I still need to meet those people..."

Wells wondered what he was talking about.

"Meeting whom?"

“Anti-Science Alliance.”

Li Nuo said it lightly, and Wells's head buzzed.

It was a large guild comparable to "Wrath of Bahamut", but because it rarely participated in wars, only legends remained. Over time, it became an organization similar to a mythical beast that existed only in fantasy.

"Brother, I can't help you with this." Wells said, "Back in Basel, that's the home ground of those guys. I can't do anything."

The implication is that if it were in the script, he could help Li Nuo rebel against the Grand Guild.

This yellow and black combination has an incredible affinity.

"It's okay, they're in this script."

Not only to know the script problems, but also the future improvement direction, Li Nuo felt it necessary to ask those higher-level guys. At this time, Li Nuo's hat sank.

Chabai's legs poked out from under his hat.

[Portal] is connected to the rune in the hat. In order to save face for Ma Ge, Cha Bai opened the portal in the way of an angel and disappeared in front of the group of believers.

Li Nuo hugged her, whose legs were paralyzed by polio, and ignored Nanami who came out of the felt hat.

"Tell me something."

Nanami got up from the ground and threw her hat to Li Nuo unhappily.

"I contacted that idiotic couple."

When the script first started, Li Nuo summoned Nanami for two things: first, to take a plane to his house to help him send out his comic drafts, and second, to contact that idiotic couple.

Review:

It is known that this world is related to "Ys", and it is also known that Pippen in the Idiot Couple once showed signs of a "red-haired boy" at a certain stage, and Etta can transform into the image of a "blue-haired goddess". The two symbolize the protagonist Atrus of "Ys" and a certain goddess.

All players in the five corridors almost treasure the possession ability before level 40. At that stage, it is not uncommon to obtain the possession ability of the "protagonist" and "female protagonist" of a certain world. What's more, the idiot couple is strangely strong, the kind that is very weird. Looking at the "World War" at that time, they are at the same level as Li Nuo, Phil and Amuro, and they are from the "Sky Corridor". Who knows if they skipped levels in a certain script and ran here to cause trouble.

And the [Ancient Gears] came from a certain "red-haired boy".

Therefore, it is worth pondering whether the whole incident was caused by the couple.

"It's their good work."

Nanami gave the conclusion directly.

“But they don’t come.”

"why?"

"They are being hunted down." Nanami said, "During your World War, they seemed to have accepted a player from the Corridor of the End, which made them the criminals."

In addition to [Identity], players also have three other names that are linked to their "ID cards".

The invader, the punisher, and the "sinner".

[Sinner: Those who are judged as "betraying" the corridor will be wanted by all players in the corridor once they are labeled as sinners]

"So whenever they come, they have to bring the 'End of the Corridor' with them."

"Ah."

Li Nuo and Nanami looked at each other.

He asked, “Isn’t that a good thing?”

She replied, "Yes."

Wells asked Cha Bai in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, is it a good thing that the End is coming?"

Cha Bai nodded and comforted him: "They have a 100% chance of winning against 'End'... they have tasted the sweetness..."

Nanami took out a "bell" from her earrings and said, "What they mean is that we need to use the bell to establish an 'anchor point' in this world so that they can jump over from other scripts."

So the question is how to establish an anchor point. Li Nuo frowned: "What else?"

“That’s all.” Nanami spread her hands. “Those two were crazy. I don’t know how they could be contacted from the tombstone in the script.”

"No." Li Nuo said, "I'm talking about the manuscript of my comic strip."

Nanami smirked, "They've all been deleted."

Li Nuo grabbed Nanami's head and slammed it against the rock!

"Demon Hunter, let's kill one of us, right?"

"Give me back Bai Jie!"

“Not deleted!”

"It's too late. I don't believe it."

Cha Bai: “Hello.”

Li Nuo immediately became obedient.

Nanami stumbled and bumped into Wells. She pretended to be surprised: "Wow, it's dark here, I didn't see you."

Wells pointed at Nanami and asked Chabai, "Sister-in-law, is it okay for me to shoot this white bitch in the head?"

"Something happened." The person who spoke was Li Nuo.

Nanami was shocked: "No...why are you suddenly protecting me?"

Cha Bai: "You're overthinking it. He's not protecting you."

Li Nuo's pupils trembled slightly, and an extremely terrifying feeling awakened in the depths of the cave, not just one, but hundreds.

"Wait for me here and be ready to evacuate at any time."

Li Nuo held down the brim of his hat, and his sudden seriousness made everyone's heart rise to their throat.

As Li Nuo disappeared around the corner of the cave, the surroundings became quiet.

Nanami broke the silence: "Are you not going to do the main quest anymore?"

Cha Bai replied, "It's not necessary to be the first in the pilgrim's mission. Li Nuo and Maljie meant to just do the side quest and use the main quest as a safe haven. Once we get into trouble, we will immediately return to the pilgrim town and admit defeat."

Wells tried to remember his brother and sister-in-law's words so that he could play in the same way with his group of black pig players in the future.

In fact, Nanami and Wells had no plans to go back, because Li Nuo and the others had already reduced the difficulty of the "Border Prison" script to that of a life game.

They are not stupid.

It’s exciting to think about how many unexpected good things you can gain by following these three steps.

Just after solving Winston's incident, they were promoted two levels in a row. God knows what weird rewards these three can come up with.

Everyone has their own selfish motives. Nanami cannot eliminate the problem of participating in the script from the root, let alone Welles. In short, we cannot stop moving forward, and strengthening ourselves is the right thing to do.

“I’m kind of looking forward to it.”

"Yes, indeed."

There was light in the eyes of the two men, one black and one white.

Only Cha Bai felt that their expectations were too high.

Just then, the three noticed hurried footsteps deep in the cave.

Li Nuo held down his hat with one hand and held a goblin's head with the other, and ran out like crazy.

Countless dark shadows behind him squeezed out of the cave, even crashing the rock wall into pieces!
Nanami pulled out the stick.

Wells lifted Gatlin.

The two were ready for battle.

Li Nuo shouted, "Run! Run! Run!"

He rarely acted so helpless and frightened in front of others, as if the goblins behind him were Malger's dung sea maggots.

Cha Bai frowned, and left to take out the summoning scroll of "Gorilla Driver".

Under the moon sky.

A black hearse rushed out of the cave.

The gorilla driver drove the hearse to the ground steadily, drifted, turned around and held up a sign to ask: "Fang Ma Bi?"

At this moment, countless goblins poured out of the cave like crazy. There were hundreds and thousands of them as far as the eye could see. They chased the hearse in a crawling manner like cockroaches jumping out of a sack!
[World of Warcraft Illustrated]

【Dark Goblin】

[The monsters live in dark and depressing caves, living in groups. They are very hospitable and not dangerous at all.]

[Contrary to the descriptions in many legends, this group of goblins do not like women. They have an extreme desire for young men and strong men.]

[They will use extreme methods to make teenagers and strong men pregnant]

[Very extreme method...]

[Anyway…]

[No one would be so idle as to run into their nest, right? Especially a teenager or a strong man? Right? ]

[Danger level: C (ordinary people), S+ (young men and strong men)]

[Strength: C (ordinary people), S (teenagers and strong men)]

After hearing the instructions in the illustrated guide, the gorilla driver raised a sign and said, "Fuck your ancestors."

Wells: "I don't want to give birth to a goblin's child!"

Li Nuo: "It's not my fault. I just killed one of them and took away their treasure!"

Wells and the gorilla driver were panicking.

Isn't it your fault?

Li Nuo: "Listen to my explanation, treasure is not a good thing."

The treasure is a [Goblin Crown], which turns you into a "Goblin" when you wear it, and can be used by Malger.

Gorilla driver: "You are not a good person and you have provoked a group of guys. I will give you a lung."

Li Nuo: "Killing monsters increases attribute values."

"Brother, I want to quit." Wells felt a little regretful. He knew that Li Nuo often made things more difficult for himself, but he didn't know that Li Nuo was the type who would make things more difficult for himself.

The wheels kicked up mud and rushed into the woods.

Cha Bai propped himself up and sat on the roof of the car, then took out the [Magic Gatling Gun] from the [Dark Magic Encyclopedia].

There is an [Experience Guide] hidden in Li Nuo's mask, which has a small chance of increasing attribute values ​​when killing monsters.

She set up the Gatling gun and took a deep breath.

Use split magic to split the Gatling gun into two, and use levitation magic to place the two machine guns in the air.

The barrels rotated at the same time, spurting out blue flames.

Da da da da da!
Bullets made of magic energy were unleashed, attacking the goblins like a torrential rain.

The entire forest was filled with a thick smell of gunpowder, and layers of magical factors created ripples, clearing away the gunpowder.

The air was torn apart piece by piece, and bullets with terrifying power rushed out of the gun barrels and hit the goblin group, causing a gushing blood paste.

However, the Dark Goblin has some masochistic tendencies, and the more he is beaten, the happier he becomes.

Cha Bai took a deep breath and simply reached for Li Nuo's thermos cup. He took a sip of tea to replenish his magic power, then activated [Ghost Back] and fired a [Ghost Breath] at the goblin!
A small mushroom cloud rose into the sky, and the air was filled with smoke.

Li Nuo leaned out of the car window like a pretty boy protected by a wealthy woman: "Hurry...speed up!"

A large number of goblins jumped out again, sticking out their tongues, with their pupils full of "heart" marks, staring at Li Nuo, Wells and the gorilla driver.

Cha Bai was already exhausted, and with smoke coming out of the corners of his mouth, he said, "Change people, I'll take a break."

Li Nuo planned to throw Wells or the gorilla driver out of the car to see if he could trigger any interesting tasks.

Suddenly, a dazzling white light descended from the sky, illuminating the entire forest.

There was a loud roar, and all the goblins froze in place, as if something terrifying had appeared. The beast instinct prompted them to abandon Wells and the gorilla driver who were about to be captured, and ran back like crazy.

A giant airship hovered above the woods, and the strong wind it brought blew away the leaves.

Li Nuo and others squinted their eyes and looked around.

A girl jumped off the airship. She looked at Li Nuo who got off and said with a smile, "It's you, [Residual Blood]."

She opened her sharp-toothed mouth and soothed him, "Don't panic. We are the Anti-Science Alliance."

Wells: "Brother, I'll go get someone for you."

Li Nuo held Wells' arm and signaled that it was okay.

The girl said, "Our leader wants to see your captain. Come up and talk."

A tall and thin man stood on the deck of the airship. He was the man from the top of the "Endless Corridor", the powerful man who was rumored to have humiliated Lillian - KING.

The man stared down with cold eyes, and the sound of his rapidly beating heart produced a roar like an engine, echoing in the darkness.

Nanami: "Your leader... is KING?"

The girl shook her head: "No, how can a weakling like KING be the leader~"

An animal jumped onto the railing next to KING.

It was a dog wearing an aviator hat.

The girl said, "Our leader is that dog."

Everyone was standing still like a nail. The mysterious "Anti-Science Alliance" that was rumored to be at the top appeared, and the KING that was rumored to be at the top also appeared, but their boss... was a dog.

Cha Bai sat on the roof of the car, pressing his forehead: "'Endless Corridor' is really full of unexpected things..."

When everyone was in a daze, only the witcher saw the answer hidden deep inside.

Their leader is a dog.

Our captain is a dog.

Li Nuo: "Could it be that your leader has taken a fancy to our captain?"

The girl nodded: "So do you want to become in-laws?"
