"I've read it." Kitahara Sora nodded. "It's actually well written. The author's characterizations are very vivid and the inner emotions are described delicately. However, the foreshadowing is too long in the early stages. Many readers probably don't have the patience to see the climax of the emotional explosion between the hero and heroine. So I guess the sales of this book will be average and it may be cancelled at any time."

Hearing this, the boy with black-framed glasses was like he had found his own brother. His worried look was immediately replaced by excitement. He immediately took off the schoolbag behind him, took out the light novel, and prepared to start chattering about what he liked, completely forgetting his current situation.

"Hey, what the hell are you guys talking about? Don't you know what kind of situation we are in now?"

Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by a young man in the crowd.

He spoke with his tongue flicking, his yellow hair stood up, he had a 'Boshu' tied on his head, and he was wearing exaggerated clothes of the bosozoku clan. He had no clothes under his coat, and a white cloth similar to a bandage was tied around his waist. His sleeves were printed with second-year dialogues, and the word "Justice" was written in big letters on his back. He looked like a Japanese "spirited young man". The two companions next to him were also dressed similarly, and it seemed that they were a small group.

The boy who took out the novel touched the back of his head, turned his head awkwardly and smiled. Just as he was about to speak, he saw another flash of light in front of his eyes. A tiny module appeared out of thin air and condensed into a slender figure. When the module was completed, he was stunned.

A black-haired girl in a black and white women's windbreaker stood quietly not far away. He had never seen such a beautiful girl before. Her appearance was secondary, and her temperament was the main thing. The boy had an indescribable feeling, like a character from an anime. If he had to say it, it would be a mysterious feeling.

The girl glanced coldly at the environment she was in, and her cold temperament immediately changed. She looked at the people she was talking to behind her and slowly walked over.

"Kitahara-kun, are these all new members?"

"Well, the plot hasn't started yet. This game is about aliens, but I didn't expect it to be this movie. If it's this movie, the mission shouldn't be long, the number of people will be much smaller, but the difficulty should be greater. However, the mission hasn't been released yet, so we have to wait and see what the specific situation is."

Kitahara Sora turned his head to glance at Yukino who was standing next to him, and fixed his eyes on the group of people talking in front of him. There were nine people in total, including the newcomers and the young man in front of him, two women and seven men. Moreover, not all of them were high school students this time. At least there was a man wearing sunglasses and a suit, who looked to be about thirty years old. Next to him was a fashionable girl who was dressed very modernly and had a brand-name bag on her shoulder.

“This movie…”

Yukino touched her chin and frowned slightly. She had watched all the "Alien" movies in the past few days. This scene should be a warehouse or a cabin of a cruise ship. There is only one alien-themed movie with this scene, and that is "Alien vs. Predator".

Kitahara Sora said it didn't take long because in the original plot of the entire movie, it only lasted a few hours. It was more difficult because this movie not only features ordinary aliens, but also the Alien Queen. Moreover, even ordinary aliens are not something normal people can deal with. They are not like zombies, they are living creatures with thoughts, and their IQ is not low.

Just as Yukino was thinking, the crowd started to get restless again. They heard the conversation between Yukino and Kitahara Sora, and seeing how calm they looked, they should have some understanding of their situation. Maybe the current situation was related to them, so the energetic young man couldn't help but come over!

"Hey! You bastards, are you going to ignore me?"

He pushed the black-framed glasses boy who was blocking him hard, causing him to lose his balance and sit on the ground. He rubbed his eyes in anger but didn't dare to scold him. This kid is a nerd, but he's also very smart.

Just because he is not stupid, he was not bullied. Even after he performed such a miraculous operation as playing anime at the school festival, he was not troubled by others. He knew what he could do and what he had to endure.

After pushing the boy down, the spirited young man didn't care. He reached out to grab Kitahara Sora's collar with a ferocious look on his face: "You bastard, you must know something, what is your purpose...ah!!!"

He stretched out his hand halfway and then stared in disbelief at his arm covered with frost. After a moment, he let out a heart-wrenching scream.

The two companions behind him also stopped and looked at the girl with ice-blue eyes in a state of alert. They even took out a metal bat and a knife from behind, but their legs were shaking like they were having the hiccups. The people behind him also opened their mouths wide as if they had seen a ghost, and the girl even forgot to scream.

"When will I be able to control elemental power so accurately?"

"Don't you care about the members of your team at all, Kitahara-kun?" Yukino glanced at Kitahara Sora helplessly, but the surprise on his calm face did not escape her eyes: "Now I can use Frost Arrows four times in a row, and finally I didn't waste a hundred points."

She looked coldly at the bikers rolling on the ground, frowning slightly: "You keep calling me a bastard. Haven't you ever heard of the word education in the life of a floating creature like you?"

Kitahara Sora saw the girl's imposing appearance and twitched his lips: "Yukino, are you so violent?"

"I almost died a few times in the last game, Kitahara-kun." Yukino glared at the man who was teasing her, and with a flip of her slender hand, a UMP9 submachine gun with a silencer appeared in her hand. She pulled the bolt to load the gun skillfully, and said in a calm tone: "Shouldn't this kind of thing be done by you as the captain?"

Yukino was right. In hindsight, the last game was very simple, otherwise the observer would not have set the mission duration to three months. Ordinary zombies could be dealt with with ordinary firearms, and special infected people posed almost no threat as long as they were not alone. Moreover, there were prompts every time they appeared. If they were attacked by surprise, the only thing they could do was to blame the team members for being too lame and having no experience or vigilance at all.

The witch will not attack unless you provoke it. Even an invincible tank can be dealt with by a grenade, but they didn't find a way. Several casualties were man-made. Junichiro Inoue left himself alone and was forced to fight the hunter in a duel. He also almost killed Yukino during the zombie tide. Ishikawa Hajime pulled Yukino to be buried with him. If Ohga Taiyo hadn't detonated the wall of the base, he could have almost safely waited for the mission to end in the base.

It should be considered a test of courage. In such a simple task, 20 people died and only two were left. It's so lame!

The most crucial point is that he is too "merciful". Kitahara Sora did not kill Ohga Taiyo before he obtained the core because he considered too much. He considered other people's opinions of him and the existence of special senses and did not want to be excluded and left alone. In fact, many things are unnecessary. Just do it boldly.

As newcomers, they must quickly believe in their situation, so they have to be intimidated a little. Those who are unqualified as teammates cannot be allowed to stay in the team.

So Kitahara Sora flipped his palm, and a handsome AK-105 appeared out of thin air in his hand...

"Hey!"

"It must be fake. It must be a fake gun."

"Who the hell are you guys?"

"ah!!!"

A series of gunshots rang out, and several bullet holes instantly appeared on the metal floor, causing the girl to scream in fear. The man also involuntarily shrank back into a ball. The man in a suit and sunglasses put his right hand in front of his chest.

"Uncle, don't take out the thing on your chest. I don't like others pointing that thing at me."

Kitahara Sora pointed his gun at the man wearing sunglasses in the crowd and continued, "I am just like you. I have killed people before. Please believe me. And that gorilla, put your fist away. If you want to stand up for this biker gang, you'd better bet your life. Well, very good. Impulsiveness does not mean stupidity."

Just now, I just shot bullets next to the biker who was lying on the ground and wailing. For the sake of the plot, I didn't hurt him. Now the plot characters haven't entered the scene yet, and the ship should be on its way to its destination. Now the cargo hold should be locked, and it should be unlocked when the game starts soon.

The characters in the plot are not soldiers, at most they are security personnel and drilling teams. The heroine Woods is also a very responsible and kind person. If he is killed or disabled now, there may be unnecessary trouble, because it is not known what identity the observer has set for the reincarnation. So Yukino did a good job and just gave them a little deterrence first.

When they calmed down, Kitahara Sora put away his AK.

He clapped his hands, glanced at the bespectacled boy who was slumped on the ground with cold sweat on his forehead, then looked at the newcomers who were huddled together and said loudly: "Okay, next I will explain your current situation to you. It's up to you whether you believe it or not. I will only say it once."

Everyone looked at each other, recovering from the shock just now.

Kitahara Sora and Yukino walked up to them side by side, nodded with satisfaction, and began to talk nonsense: "Very good, you newcomers are the most qualified group I have ever seen..."

"Now please introduce yourselves within 5 minutes, and then..."

Bei Yuankong suddenly frowned slightly, turned his head and looked at the drilling machine next to him. When his eyes touched it, a small head quickly withdrew from the gap between the machines and hid behind the drilling machine. How could there be another person? If he hadn't felt that he was being observed, he wouldn't have noticed him?

"Come out, the one behind the tracks, I see you."

But Kitahara Sora's words did not receive a response. He frowned, deliberately pulled the bolt to make a rustling sound, and then pointed the AK in that direction: "If I don't see you within five seconds, I will shoot in that direction. I hope it's just my illusion and there's actually no one behind the drilling rig..."

But just as Kitahara Sora finished his words, a noise came from behind the drilling rig.

A curvy figure walked out slowly from behind the drilling rig. She was wearing a blue sailor suit, short stockings, and a pair of black round-toed leather boots. There was a red ribbon on her collar.

Under the short black hair is an ordinary face. Although she looks ordinary at first glance, she has a stunning beauty when you look closely, because her facial features are actually very delicate. If we use the words from fantasy novels to describe her, this girl has an inner charm.

There was no expression on her paralyzed face, but her big, sparkling eyes revealed a hint of fear and panic.

Her gaze slowly moved from Yukino to Kitahara Sora, and she tilted her head cutely as if she was considering how to greet him in a way that would not cause the other person to be disgusted.

"Um...hello?"

0Section 13 Chapter 13 The difficulty increases!

Alien vs. Predator is one of the Alien movies. It tells the story of how in 2004, the Weyland Corporation's PS12 satellite observed an unidentified hot source in an uninhabited area of ​​Antarctica from space. Through more precise scanning, it was discovered that under the thick ice there was a pyramid building similar to ancient ruins.

Therefore, Charles Weiland, the billionaire boss of a multinational communications company who is terminally ill, assembled a team to go on an expedition. In fact, he was seeking technology that could prolong life under the guise of scientific research and archaeology. This mentality is very similar to that of the First Emperor. As a top figure in modern society, it is ridiculous that he would have such a delusion. Even if it is required by the plot, wouldn't the director think of a more reliable reason?

But when they found this mysterious pyramid, they discovered that it was indeed an ancient relic and was probably the first pyramid on Earth. But in fact, it was a training ground built by an ancient alien civilization for its people, and their hunting targets were aliens.

The race with the appearance is the Iron-Blooded Warriors. Every hundred years, they will put their underage members into the pyramid for trial. Those who can successfully kill the aliens and survive can become real warriors.

Their technology is far superior to that of the Earth, but it is not incredibly powerful. They must have just left behind technological civilization and stepped into interstellar civilization.

At least from the movie "Prometheus", their technology is far less advanced than that of the creators of humans and aliens, and they still retain the ancient traditions and warlike factors of the race. They should be considered a "barbaric" race among other star-level civilizations.

When the protagonist and his party arrived at the pyramid, it was exactly one hundred years ago, which was the day when the young Iron Blood held his coming-of-age ceremony. A few days before the trial, the battleships in the universe had activated the energy system at the bottom of the pyramid, so the heat source was detected by Weyland Company. When they walked into the entrance of the pyramid, the trial mechanism was triggered, and then the Alien Queen was pulled out of the prison at the bottom, and began to lay eggs and hatch ordinary aliens for Iron Blood to hunt.

After roughly explaining the plot, Kitahara Sora fell silent. The newcomers began a heated discussion, but most of them expressed their unwillingness to believe it.

Only the boy with glasses lowered his head as if he was thinking about something, his expression sometimes struggling and sometimes excited. The girl with short hair was also quietly in a daze as if she was thinking seriously.

"What do you think of them?"

Xue No looked at the ten men and women and asked Kitahara Sora in Chinese, "Is there anyone you know?"

"I know four of them, and one of them is pretty good." Kitahara Sora looked at the newcomers gathered together and said, "The muscular man who looks like a gorilla and is over two meters tall is called Gouda Takeo. He is a student at Jiei High School and the male protagonist of a romantic anime. Don't be fooled by his ferocious appearance, he is actually a warm-hearted and kind-hearted person. He has strong fighting ability and should be considered the best among ordinary people. One punch can dent a steel plate, but his personality is too kind. He has a straightforward and clumsy personality. His friends once judged that his help to others is more of a spinal reflex than a brain control. If he can help others, he will not care about his own safety."

"It's okay to be friends with such people, but as teammates, they may cause accidents." Yukino glanced at Takeo Gouda, who was sitting with everyone else and took up at least three people's space, and said, "You don't have to be on guard against them, but you can't let your guard down either."

Kitahara Sora nodded and continued, "The boy with the black-framed glasses is called Tomoya Amaki. He is an avid otaku and the protagonist of an anime. He is extremely self-disciplined and persistent in the things he loves. He can do anything for his ideals. He likes the anime but has his own set of principles. He will never touch products that are banned for 18s. He is a pure love party. As long as someone seriously asks him for help, he will seriously help the other person without violating his inner wishes. His anime is a pseudo-harem. Many girls like him, but he only chose one in the end."

At this point, Yukino glanced sideways at the inconspicuous boy, and a little bit of goodwill arose in her heart, just an ordinary social goodwill. She thought that this person was actually quite good. Many girls liked him but he only chose one, which showed that he had his own set of principles and was at least not a scumbag.

Yukino really admired the indomitable spirit of daring to challenge setbacks for the sake of ideals. When her eyes met Aki Tomoya, the other party was also secretly glancing at her and Kitahara Sora. Yukino responded with a faint smile and a nod. As long as this person didn't die, he should be considered a qualified teammate.

However, Kitahara Sora's next words changed her mind 180 degrees.

"It's actually quite interesting to talk about his indomitable spirit. His dream is to make a game, so he recruited some girls to help him. These girls all like him. He is not an emotional idiot like other male protagonists in harem anime. On the contrary, he clearly knows that these girls like him, but he just keeps them company. He even plays dumb when they boldly express their feelings. It's not that he's afraid of hurting them. In fact, he uses the feelings of these girls to achieve his own goals, because he knows that as long as he makes a choice, those girls who like him will definitely leave him, and then his goal will not be achieved."

"All he can think about are anime and games. There was a girl who wrote a novel for him. It was called a novel, but it was actually a long love letter. The book was written for him. But this guy not only didn't appreciate it, but also tore up the girl's work in front of her and yelled at her, saying that she insulted the art of novels and that he was very disappointed in her. That's the specific plot, and I have almost forgotten it."

"There are people like this? I thought..." Yukino was stunned and turned to look at Aki Tomoya again: "This kind of selfish scum is also qualified to be the protagonist?"

“So I don’t understand the way you Japanese think.” Kitahara Sora complained: “All kinds of weird plots, trying every way to disgust the audience, and then the works are still very popular and have a large audience…”

"Please don't use the word 'you guys'!" Yukino's beautiful eyes narrowed as she glared at Kitahara Sora again, kicking him on the knee with her toes. "I'm really sorry for disgusting you. Kitahara-kun, after two lifetimes of experience, do you still need me to teach you how to use words? If you need to, please tell me directly. I will teach you from the 50-character kana in a serious and responsible manner."

"It's not like I've lived through two lives since I was a child...Okay, go on."

Seeing that Yukino was about to get angry, Kitahara Sora had no choice but to rub his knees and change the subject. It seemed that this girl couldn't be argued with now. She would not confront him now, but would directly resist with actions. But you shouldn't kick yourself every time. It doesn't hurt but it's very uncomfortable. How about going back and using points to strengthen your knees next time? If that doesn't work, just increase the muscle strength...

"That girl with a low sense of presence, um, is the short-haired girl named Kato Megumi. Like Aki Tomoya, she is a student at Tokyo Toyonosaki High School and is in the same dimension as us. Although she looks calm and indifferent, she actually has a rich psychological life. She usually doesn't talk much, but it's because her sense of presence is too low and she gradually gets used to listening to others. But once she opens her mouth, she can often hit the nail on the head, as if she has already understood everything, like a saint. This shows that she is actually very smart."

"The fact that I didn't notice her at the beginning shows that when Kato Megumi saw your 'power' and the guns in our hands, she hid immediately. She didn't choose to stand with everyone else. She knew that hiding in the crowd would be the most unsafe if we attacked her. But I still found her... She was actually the heroine who finally defeated many supporting actresses and won the role of Tomoya Aki. How about that? It's interesting, isn't it? The hero and heroine of this game are all here..."

"But they don't seem to know each other." Yukino glanced at Kato Megumi in confusion. The other party seemed to notice the probing gaze and her body trembled slightly, but she did not turn her head. She still pretended to listen to everyone's discussion as if nothing had happened.

Kitahara Sora nodded and said, "It means the plot has not yet unfolded. It was only during the beginning of the second year of high school that Tomoya Aki picked up Kato Megumi's hat on the 'Slope of Fate' and decided to make the game. From what I just learned, it seems that Tomoya Aki has just seen the novel 'Love Metronome' for the first time, so they should be in the first year of high school now, a year younger than us."

That is to say, Kasumigaoka Utaha is only a sophomore in high school now, and she doesn't know her Ethics-kun yet. Moreover, her novel has been on sale for more than half a year, and the second volume should have been released, but Tomoya Aki only has the first volume in his schoolbag, which means that he has just seen the novel. Without his help, Fat Kasumi's book would not have been written to the third volume. As a result, he was brought here by the Observer.

"This girl named Kato Megumi is actually quite good. She is rational and calm, and can often see through the essence of things at the first sight. If she can survive, she should be able to help us."

"Kitahara-kun, you judge people by their background? So, can she be labeled as excellent in your eyes?" Yukino pursed her lips. Her tone was even, but Kitahara Sora heard a hint of sneer: "Can you tell me why you had such a low opinion of me when I first entered this world? You thought I was probably GG... Is that what you meant? I remember you said the two English words 'GG' at that time. Is there any other meaning?"

"GG ​​means awesome... uh, it means great. Don't think too much about it. I mean she has a good personality, but her taste is not that good. Just look at the boyfriend she chose."

Kitahara Sora understood what Yukino meant, she had no other thoughts, she just disliked Aki Tomoya and also disliked Kato Megumi at the same time. She must have felt uncomfortable when she heard him 'praising her'. No matter how rational she was usually, as a human being there were times when she was swayed by emotions. If she hadn't watched that anime, to be honest, she wouldn't have liked Kato Megumi.

After all, she is so smart that she should be able to see Tomoya Aki's true thoughts. She sees his scumbag behavior clearly, but she still likes him and supports him unreservedly. Even after Shiyu and some loser "betrayed" Tomoya Aki to join other companies to make games, she was still not willing to forgive them even after the parties had let it go, but she just didn't say it.

However, as a viewer at the time, Kitahara Sora had a strange feeling. Maybe it was because of the halo of the heroine that made it hard for people to hate her. But there is still a gap between real people and animation. However, love makes people stupid. This girl might even hope that Aki Tomo didn't like them either. The girls in the anime world are really pure. What a pity.

But in comparison, Yukino is better. If this kind of plot happened to her, she would probably ruthlessly expose Aki Tomoya's tricks. If a friendship developed between them, she would also seriously make things clear and seriously warn Shiha and Eriri that some things are not worth it.

Can we say that girls like Yukino are the most difficult to capture? If the person she likes becomes like this, what choice will she make? ... Forget it, I'm too lazy to guess.

"I don't know the others, but I have a basic understanding of them from their self-introductions just now..."

The uncle in his thirties wearing sunglasses is a professional bodyguard named Hisada Daishi. Just when he took out the gun, he quietly used the crowd's cover to draw his gun. He should be a good teammate, but we have to see his character and whether he can survive this game. The fashionable beauty with dyed golden wavy hair is called Tenharu Junko, a singer. The mushroom-headed young woman in a women's business suit is called Uesugi Kusanagi, a white-collar worker.

Kitahara Sora was too lazy to remember the names of the three biker gang members, so he just called them Xiao Huang, Xiao Hong, and Xiao Lan based on their hair color...

Beiyuan Kong glanced at the crowd, as if he suddenly remembered something. Just as he was about to speak, the other party took the initiative to walk over, although he looked "disillusioned".

He had a head of messy hair and a passionate look with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He looked very handsome, but his willpower was a little depressed, and it seemed that he had suffered a blow. He slowly walked in front of Kitahara Sora, hesitating for a long time before bowing to the two of them: "Um... Captain, Vice Captain, I..."

"I know you, don't be nervous, I know your friends."

Kitahara Sora reached out and gently patted the boy's shoulder. He had a good impression of the boy, but he was just too kind. Or was it that most of the male protagonists in Japanese anime were designed to be kind and silly?

With a somewhat regretful tone, he slowly said, "Hello, Komuro Takashi-san. Actually, Igo Nagata and Miyamoto Rei were also there in the last game..."

"what?"

"what?"

Yukino and the boy stared at Kitahara Sora in unison, both of them stunned for a moment.

Just as he was about to speak again, the electronic display screen on the warehouse wall suddenly lit up, drawing everyone's attention. This display screen was originally used by Weland to explain the purpose of this mission to the expedition members, but it lit up in advance, showing the target mission of this game.

Kitahara Sora glanced at the excited Komuro Takashi, signaled him to calm down, told him that he would explain the situation to him later, and then carefully read the mission instructions...

"The selected players will play the evolution trial game of the reincarnation. Please read the mission rules carefully."

"1. The themes of this game are 'Escape', 'Hunting' and 'Protecting'. The main quest is to protect the protagonist 'Lex Wood' from death. Players are requested to explore the side quests on their own."

"2. If the protagonist survives after the story ends, the mission is successful and each player will be awarded 1000 game points. If the protagonist dies, 1000 points will be deducted from each player. When the game ends, players with less than 0 points will be eliminated."

"3. The protagonist Lex Wood must enter the plot, otherwise the game will be considered a failure and 1000 points will be deducted from each player."

"4. The player's identity is set as a drilling team member, please remember."

"5. If you reveal any information about the game space to the plot characters, 1000 points will be deducted."

"6. Players who do not enter the plot will be directly eliminated."

"7. The world time stagnation will end in 10 minutes. Please be prepared, players."

Yukino suddenly turned her head to look at Kitahara Sora and said seriously, "The game has become more difficult."

She knows the plot. According to the normal plot, the protagonist Woods will definitely survive to the end, but the mission prompt here is to protect the heroine from death, which means that if there is no participation from the player, the heroine will definitely die in this mission.

Moreover, the observer directly gave a hint: either escape, fight back against the hunter, or protect the heroine. These are the three choices. But no matter what you choose, the heroine must survive to the end, otherwise the game will fail.

Different from the rules in the previous zombie chapter, if you confess to Bill and the others, at most you will fail the side quest and get no reward. This time, if you confess to the plot characters, you will be deducted points. When the mission is over, the players with negative points will be deleted directly...

And the sixth rule is very interesting. The observers force newcomers to enter the underground pyramid and not to stay on the ship, otherwise his evolution will be meaningless. This should be considered a comfortable option, and those who violate this rule can just die, because there is no point in you being here.
