"You'll see if you look carefully."

"The layout of this street in front of us is basically the same as the layout of the commercial street in Jiangchenghe District!"

In other words.

The scene before my eyes was indeed from another world.

But the world itself is still their real world.

It’s just that the areas of the two worlds overlap and merge into one!

This is the architectural landscape.

The same is true for them who suddenly changed their dressing style.

This is obviously different from the direct replacement overlay that occurs in the copy mission in reality.

Is this how the 'world' invades reality?

It follows from this...

"Among these people coming and going, there might be people from the real world who are just like us!" Li Re said this while looking at his clothes with interest.

While Lu Baixi was stunned for a moment, he turned his head and looked not far in front of him - a figure walking slowly towards him.

He said, "What do you think? Section Chief Cheng Shiyu!"

Chapter 149: Fall

[D++ level super large-scale realistic disaster mission 'Magic Fog' has been launched]

[Mission Introduction: The magic fog covering reality has brought about the erosion of the alien world. The boundary between reality and illusion has gradually blurred, and life has gradually sunk into it. If it is not stopped, the dimension of reality will accelerate its collapse.]

[Main Quest: Resolve the huge disaster brought about by the invasion of the 'Magic Mist' and prevent the fusion of reality and illusion]

[Side Quests: Awaken the Fallen Life (Part 1), Find the Source of the Magic Mist (Part 2)]

【…】

The "foreign land" and reality merged and merged, as if the Middle Ages had returned, and the streets were still extremely prosperous with people coming and going. At the sound of Li Re's voice, the figure walking slowly paused slightly and couldn't help sighing.

"It seems that you are inevitably trapped in it!"

The visitor said this, and then said: "That's right, after all, this magic fog has probably enveloped the entire provincial capital city, right?"

The young woman with her black hair tied up in a high ponytail revealed a red sword on her back. She was wearing a police uniform that was different from her usual loose and unrestrained style of wearing a wide-sleeved robe. It wrapped her body tightly and highlighted her exquisite curves. She walked slowly in her high heels as if she was not used to it - not used to the way she was dressed at this moment.

Although the outfit is different.

But just from the red sword on his back, Li Re could recognize his identity.

In the real world, the leader of the official player organization responsible for all matters related to the park in the provincial capital and city - the head of the cleaning department, 'Little Sword Fairy' Cheng Shiyu.

"Section Chief Cheng."

Lu Baixi greeted him politely.

Li Re glanced at the Paradise system prompt that popped up below his sight, thinking that this prompt came just in time - as if to confirm his previous guess, and then said to Cheng Shiyu who was walking over: "I didn't expect that we would meet again in a real mission -"

"Is this the second time?"

"I should be the one to say this."

Cheng Shiyu, who was dressed in a police uniform, said: "It is our duty to solve practical tasks. If you dare to cause trouble in my small territory, you must first ask the Three-foot Chixiao in my hand whether it agrees or not!"

As she spoke, she patted the scabbard on her back and remained confident.

However, this confidence soon collapsed when Li Re asked.

“As for the current situation, have you asked Chi Xiao in your hand?” Li Re spread his hands.

Cheng Shiyu responded discouragedly: "Stop talking."

"This is my first time experiencing a D++ level real disaster mission! If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have let that guy drag it out and solve the Magic Library directly!"

"What does this sentence mean?" Li Re, who was originally planning to exchange information with Section Chief Cheng, who had obviously entered this integrated area earlier than them, was slightly stunned.

What does this have to do with the previous mystery copy, Magic Library?

Could it be that...

Li Re looked at the scene around him and frowned - as if he suddenly noticed something or remembered something!

"It seems you noticed it too, right?" Cheng Shiyu blinked: "The origin of this 'magic fog' came from the Magic Library!"

"Although the Cleaning Department has already sealed off that area, the mysterious player had more important things to deal with, so they were unable to immediately deal with it. This led to the current situation... But to be honest, this is the first time we have encountered such a thing."

"In other words, what is integrated with reality comes from the copy world where the magic library is located - that fantasy worldview?" Li Re understood.

No wonder he felt it looked familiar from the beginning!

The architectural style is like this, and so are the people, elves, and orcs coming and going!

these things.

He had seen similar records in books!

So Li Re, who was already expecting something, became excited at this moment——

He still remembered that it was a B-level copy world where demons and gods existed!

He had always thought that he needed to collect enough ticket fragments to enter, but now he was confronted with it in such an abrupt way!

Cheng Shiyu nodded slightly and was about to continue speaking.

People were still coming and going on the street, and under the slanting light of the warm sun, suddenly a panic-stricken voice was heard.

"Where is this place?"

"Why am I here?"

“Who are you all!??”

After the panicked voice sounded, a man with a terrified face rushed out of a shop on the street! The huge noise attracted passers-by to stop and watch with confused expressions. The person who came out of the door immediately afterwards showed an apologetic look to the bystanders and hurriedly pulled the man in.

Passersby looked away when they saw this and looked as if they were used to it.

Cheng Shiyu's words got stuck in her throat, and after a moment she said, "Really... is it starting again?"

"What...is going on?" Lu Baixi asked in confusion.

"It's very simple."

Li Re responded casually: "That person should be like us - an ordinary person who has just been trapped here and has not yet adapted to his new identity in this area after the fusion of reality and the dungeon world."

A new identity?

Lu Baixi subconsciously looked at the clothes she was wearing, and then she understood!

She clearly understood that since it was a worldview that merged reality and the copy, what changed was not just the scenery that was shrouded in it - but also the identities of the people here.

The 'identity' and 'occupation' of the real world and the copy world are also merging!

That's why their attire has changed.

This is not difficult to imagine.

"Is such that."

Cheng Shiyu, who had obviously fallen into this trap earlier than Li Re and Lu Baixi, responded affirmatively: "For example, I am a member of the Cleaning Division in reality, but in this merged area, I am a 'Sheriff'."

She pointed to her police uniform.

Then Lu Baixi seemed to suddenly remember something.

"Speaking of which, the people around here..."

"The people around here, whether they look normal, or the 'elves' with pointy ears, or even the 'orcs', are actually people from reality." Cheng Shiyu said as if she knew what Lu Baixi wanted to ask: "But just like what you see now - they all seem to live here naturally, without any obstacles..."

"If it weren't for this, the higher-ups would have probably considered using large-scale weapons! But now we have to rely on the players to solve the problem from the inside - a large number of cleanup teams from other places have probably already rushed over!"

After all, this is the life of a city.

You definitely can't mess around.

"Gradually forgetting the reality and getting used to the state of being eroded...is this what is called decadence?" Li Re pondered.

This is the boundary between reality and the copy.

Ordinary people who are not players are trapped here - without any special abilities, they will gradually be affected by the power of the fusion of the worlds, thus distorting their memories and reality, and creating the illusion that this is the place where they have lived since they were young.

The previous person was just newly trapped and had not yet been twisted, but after a while, he would get used to it.

No wonder Cheng Shiyu said "it started again". She must have seen such a scene here more than once!

If this trend continues, reality will probably become another 'copy'...

"By the way, even 'players' are not completely immune to this kind of sinking. At most, they can just hold on a little longer than ordinary people."

At last, Cheng Shiyu suddenly added: "I was not the only official cleaning player from the provincial capital city who entered the magic fog at first, but everyone else only lasted three days before being assimilated."

"And I have persisted since the appearance of this magic fog until now, and it has been five days!"

Five days...

This magic fog appeared five days ago?

The day he met Qu Shenyin was also the day he returned from the 'Super Power World'... So it seems that the 'General Manager' is also in this magic fog?

"The general manager is definitely here." Cheng Shiyu confirmed Li Re's guess: "Although I don't want to admit it, if it weren't for her, this magic fog would probably not be just this size now! You wouldn't have been trapped in it until today."

"In fact, the speed at which this magic fog expanded was very alarming at the beginning - but after the general manager came in, the speed of the expansion of this magic fog was mostly slowed down by her own strength."

"That guy is worthy of being the player closest to silver - of course, sooner or later, I will reach that level! Pull that guy down from his position!" The little sword fairy was full of confidence again!

But the next second he suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "But if this happens, I will be left alone and there is no way to solve this crisis... Am I really going to be overtaken by the cleaning department from outside?"

"No, absolutely not!" The little sword fairy covered his head with an expression of disbelief.

"..."

Li Re raised his eyebrows speechlessly as he looked at Cheng Shiyu's expression. While paying more attention to the strength shown by Qu Shenyin in delaying the spread of the D++ level reality disaster by herself, he couldn't help but think that this incident seemed to be a really big scene.

A major event that brings together the official players of the Cleaning Department from all over the world...

The corners of Li Re's mouth lifted.

He thought of something very interesting.

An action that is definitely worth trying!

"No wonder you showed up alone..."

He said, "I almost thought that the entire cleaning department was wiped out except for you!"

"It's not really wrong to say that the whole army was annihilated."

The 'Little Sword Fairy' put down her hands and snorted, still very unhappy - this was one of the rare setbacks for her.

But there's nothing we can do about it.

after all...

"The entire provincial capital city is now shrouded in the magic fog and twisted into the current scene. I guess except for a few people, most of the residents are trapped. With such a large area and few clues, I don't know how to solve it." Cheng Shiyu said to Li Re, "It's a good thing you're here."

"Sir Li Re should be very good at this kind of thing!"

Good at finding the source of disasters.

So Li Re paused and looked at the street again.

Immediately grinned.

He said: "In this case, let's do what we should do!"

"What do you mean?" Cheng Shiyu was stunned, a little confused.

Li Re spread his hands and said, "If we want to solve this incident, we need a way out. But right now, we know nothing about this fused world, so we have no idea where to start."

"Because of this, the next step is naturally to gather intelligence - using our identities after the fusion of the worlds."

He pointed at the clothes on himself and Lu Baixi, and then at the police uniform on Cheng Shiyu.

Finally, Li Re added: "So now, we have to go to school!"
