As a player, can you be normal?

Chapter 667 Smiling Bustard (x)

The end of time.

Or it should be said that it is no longer the end of time. New sprouts have appeared in the desert, proving that past history is changing this future time and space.

The sky was split in two, but it had nothing to do with time.

Two guys at the top of their lives just had a fight here.

"call……"

The demon was sitting on a rock with his head lowered so that one could not see the depth of his eyebrows and eyes. His long white hair fell in front of him like a waterfall, almost covering his entire face.

"It's so embarrassing."

A voice reached his ears.

Slowly raising his head, the demon saw an old woman beside him.

"I was wondering why I couldn't smell any human scent. It turns out it was a staff member."

The smiling procuress raised her old hand and covered her mouth with a smile: "Haha~ The demon god was beaten so hard that he could hardly move. This scene is so interesting every time I see it."

"Is it broken?" The devil glared at the Smiling Bustard. The shock wave released by this glare knocked the Smiling Bustard's entire body flying.

She was supposed to fall into the dust and decompose naturally, and then her soul would return to the "End Corridor" to be remade by the working group.

But the Smiling Bustard sat up.

"You didn't expect that brat could actually trick you, did you? I didn't expect it either."

She shrank into the ground and got behind the demon. When she turned her head towards the demon again, her face turned into a mask.

"Black businessman."

The demon god understood why he didn't see the problem with the Smiling Bustard at the beginning.

"The speculators from the World Tree have the smell of the staff on them, so we can't see it?"

"how could it be possible."

The black merchant appeared right in front of the demon the next second, and squatted down, posing like a peddler selling things.

"You just don't take me seriously, otherwise you would have seen it a long time ago."

The black businessman rubbed his chin with his hand and said, “Hmmmm… Actually, that brat Li Nuo saw my problem, so it’s not good to always be superior. This is one of the reasons why you can never beat Carl Elmond.”

"Purpose?" asked the demon.

“Don’t be anxious. Just listen to what I have to say.” The black businessman said, “Help me think about it. When did Li Nuo see that there was something wrong with me? I guess it was my poor acting skills. For example, I acted very scared of him, but after he threw me out, I still returned to his mask. And that old firefighter, that guy was amazing. We were in the mask together, but he actually said that there was something wrong with me. I was so scared that I put a bunch of shit in his brain. Guess what? He became mentally retarded, hahahaha!”

At this point, the black businessman made a gesture to whisper, and whispered: "I also saw something very impressive. His Majesty the King hit you on the head with a brick more than 300 times just now. Your head is really hard... You didn't become a retard."

boom--!
The devil only gave a glance, and the location of the black merchant was covered by a huge beam of light.

"It was so dangerous. I was almost killed by you."

The demon Galdera turned his head and this air-like creature appeared behind him.

Black businessman: "I haven't finished my analysis yet. Since you have been installing the panel, you should be able to see the problem more accurately than me. Tell me, is what I just thought about true?"

This time the demon didn't take any action, but just watched him talk to himself.

"If there is no other reason, it is probably because of my analysis problem. I need to change this aspect... um... ah... it's really difficult, Galdera, do you know when was the most difficult time for me along the way?"

"That's when that old guy Kaioshin showed up."

The black merchant pried open his head, and a comic book popped out of his empty skull. When he opened it, there was a sketch of the conversation between King God and the Laughing Bustard.

"As expected, the power from outside the World Tree can see where our problem lies. Old Kai must have sensed that he and I are in the same worldview, so he wanted to see me naked. But then again, maybe he just thinks that I am a creature from the same world as him, so he thinks there is value in seeing me naked."

The black businessman suddenly knelt down and banged his head on the ground frantically.

"Damn it! Damn it! At that time, I felt that if I didn't run faster, Old Kai would kill me. I was so scared! Hahahahahahaha, I'm still scared now."

Snapped.

The black businessman looked up and snapped his fingers.

"Okay, Lord Demon, can you give me an answer? At that time, King Kai, did you see that there was something wrong with me?"

The demon took a deep breath and said, "Kaioshin was having strange mood swings at the time. I thought that old pervert was just expecting something."

Before he finished speaking, a breath that shook the heavens and the earth rose, and the ground beneath the demon's feet shattered. He said in a tone that could not be refused: "It's your turn. As one of the black merchants who deal with waste produced by the 'World Tree', why did you come here? Does your behavior mean that the World Tree will take some action?"

The black businessman spread his hands: "You? Where are you? I'm the only one."

Demon: “……!?”

Black Merchants: The "World Tree" has countless fruits, and each fruit represents a formed world. Some worlds will spoil for various reasons, commonly known as rotten fruits. The rotten fruits will eventually grow into maintainers serving the World Tree. They are the staff of the World Tree, and some of the staff's jobs are to recycle the props left behind by players in the "Border Prison", that is, "black merchants."

There are a large number of black businessmen. They may appear in the player's train and sell recycled goods to the player. The probability of encountering them is less than one in a thousand, or even one in ten thousand. Moreover, they only appear in trains related to the "Border Prison".

For example, World War.

"I shouldn't have told you this." The black businessman said, "You can understand that I am here to help Li Nuo complete his fruit, but Li Nuo's actions exceeded my expectations, so I plan to get some extra local specialties and leave. As a businessman, the goods I like must be valuable. As for the purpose of talking to you, it is to take a look at... this latest achievement."

A strand of the demon's hair appeared on his finger, the king's power remained in the hair, and the hair penetrated into his body.

The demon looked at him expressionlessly.

Even if they wanted to use the administrator's authority to send the black businessman away, this was the territory of the "Endless Corridor" and the administrator of the "Endless Corridor" could not do anything here.

"I don't know what you are planning, but it has nothing to do with me."

The demon is leaving.

There was a sudden pain in the back of my head.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't leave so easily. You need to forget what just happened."

The black businessman appeared behind him like a ghost, and stabbed his fingers into the back of his head, pulling at his memories.

"..."

This time, Galdeira decided not to hold back. Even though his strength and health were extremely poor after fighting with the king, he could still destroy everything in front of him with just a raise of his hand.

The tearing power of time and space ended in an instant.

There was only a cloud of dust on the ground.

In the smoke, the figure of the black businessman was looming.

He said, "Gardela, you are still so irritable, kid?"

These words made the demon freeze in place. The fear would not disappear with the passage of time. Even after a thousand years, he still remembered himself when he was an ordinary player, the self who was an opponent of Carl Elimond, and the most terrifying life he had ever faced.

"The Corridor of Redemption..."

The moment he was stunned, the black businessman took the opportunity to disappear.

……

world Tree.

In a dark room.

The black businessman returned to his computer, turned on his old computer, and while waiting for it to start up, he rummaged through the refrigerator and found that the drink he wanted was not there, so he went out and asked his companion who was also a "black businessman" for a can of Coke.

"You're skipping work again! I'm the one in charge of the prison area you're in charge of!"

“Hahahahaha, sorry!”

He opened his head and poured out the "shit" that Malger had given to the Smiling Bustard.

"Compensate you!"

"Get out of here!"

He returned to his room amid the shouting and cursing.

In the dark room, the computer screen flickered, illuminating his black cloak.

He opened the "Old Friend's Memory Bank" folder, saved the memory of the demon he had just taken away into a disk, and put it into the computer.

The system prompts "Violation".

He restarted [Reincarnation] dozens of times and finally found a BUG.

pat.

Click the left mouse button.

[Gardela's memory of meeting you has been deleted]

Then, he took off his mask and pulled out the hair that contained the king's power from his mouth. The flickering light of the screen shone on his eyes, which were a pair of eyes without any emotion or consciousness, and even seemed to have no light at all. The flesh under his eyes was in a semi-hidden state, indicating that he was a dead man, a soul, a residual soul.

"Karl..."

These eyes seemed to have gone back a thousand years, back to the original Basel.

He stuffed his hair into the case.

Then he put on the mask again, patted his face, and turned into a crazy and dishonest black businessman again.

"start working!"

He perked up and put his fingers on the keyboard.

【Li Nuo’s house! 】

【Updated again today! 】

[Continued from the last time, I was going to divorce my wife, but she knelt at my feet and asked me not to do it. I was in a dilemma, so I decided to find a mistress! ]

His fingertips tapped randomly on the keyboard.

But he was thinking about something else.

When did Tool (Li Nuo) notice the problem of the Laughing Bustard?

Tool (Li Nuo) often writes his own diary, and only writes it in the script. What is the purpose of that diary?
The tool (Li Nuo) can indeed do many things that we dare not even think about. Therefore, the potential of the tool (Li Nuo) is too great, and the tool is too dangerous. We must quickly draw a clear line between ourselves and him.

"Is he really only in his twenties..."

……

Li Nuo was sitting on the return train. He was still wondering what the Smiling Bustard was and didn't notice the settlement panel that popped up.

……

"What is that last thing?"

Malger snorted.

The moment the mission was completed, he was resurrected, and then was hit by a train in Basel. All that can be said is that the ritual that had to be completed had to continue.

"Li Nuo, did I prepare this for you?"

"Old Ma, I'm going to beat you up. I'm really powerful now."

Cha Bai interrupted at the right moment and asked, "What happened to you and Mulan later?"

Li Nuo stayed in that world for three days, but actually didn't experience anything. He originally wanted to fight some BOSSes, but he was the most powerful thing left in that world, so there were no BOSSes. Also, because it had just become the "Endless Corridor", the quest system could not be triggered.

“Finally I got this thing.”

Li Nuo pulled out a note from the mask.

[A note with a blessing from the goddess of wisdom]

[Quality: Epic]

[Effect 1: Summon an item that you once had but no longer have. It must be something from the Endless Corridor and it is random. There is a 90% chance that it will be one of the best items, unless you are extremely unlucky.]

[Effect 2: Carry it with you to increase your luck]

[Effect 3: Summon "Ms. Mulan, the Goddess of Wisdom". Since that world is temporarily closed, it is recommended to use with caution, as it is possible that parts of Mulan's body will be summoned.]

[Brief description: I wish my brother and sister-in-law a baby soon! ]

Cha Bai: "...She doesn't know that you are infertile?"

Maljie: "Humph, Miss Chabai, you have to think about it this way. If Mulan understood Li Nuo's physiological problems, wouldn't it become orthopedics?"

Li Nuo couldn't hold back and rushed over to grab Maljie's neck.

"I strangle you!"

“Hahahaha! Is this what you call getting stronger?! Ahem… let go, I can’t breathe… ugh—!”

Cha Bai narrowed his eyes helplessly: "What nonsense."

A woman's voice sounded nearby: "Are they always this noisy?"

"Not really. They are just happy because they completed such a difficult script..." When the last word came out of his mouth, Cha Bai looked towards the seat on the left in surprise.

Angel sat there quietly.

At this time, Li Nuo and Maljie stopped what they were doing, sat down quietly, and straightened their appearance.

One of the managers is here... that means something's up.

Angel, the woman with long black hair and a black dress, looks like an ignorant young woman who just finished taking photos at a COSPLAY comic convention at first glance, but she is indeed one of the top existences in the corridor. Although the manager of the "Endless Corridor" is the king, she seems to have the authority of the manager as well, but to the outside world, the "Endless Corridor" is not a dual manager system.

Anyway, Li Nuo and his friends couldn't afford to mess with this thing for the time being, so Li Nuo poured her a cup of tea.

In the bumpy train, Li Nuo handed her the bottle cap filled with tea.

But she didn't take the lid. Instead, she stared at Li Nuo and asked, "Are you interested in being the next manager?"

Li Nuo: “No.”

back in seconds.
