The Truth of Magic

Chapter 557

557 the wildlands, the mysterious man

The Wildlands was located at the mouth of the sea of the entire northern lands.

Although this place occupied the coastline, the negative energy level of the entire forbidden land was beyond the general standard. The corpses often buried underground would unconsciously turn into undead creatures.

The growth of the crops in this land was also very average. Slowly, this area was changed from a ” wild area ” to a ” wild dead land “, and no living person dared to set foot in it.

This vast area of the North gradually became a desolate and uninhabited land. Usually, only adventurers who were confident in their strength dared to set foot in it.

However, there were also many adventurers who entered and came out as undead creatures.

As the morning light shone down, an ordinary person lying on the ground blinked his eyes and slowly woke up.

“What’s happening? It should be a dream.”

However, as this civil servant who had just stepped into society opened his eyes, he was surprised to find that the surrounding jungle was different from the style of earth.

It was more similar to the Arthur that he had played before.

what the hell? don’t tell me I’m dreaming of what I think in the day? I’m actually starting to miss this game that was closed a month ago. The man rubbed his eyes again.

However, in the next moment, he found that the half-body armor he was wearing was extremely real, and the feeling was exactly the same as before. The only thing wrong was the heavy feeling, which he was not used to.

“I can’t possibly have really transmigrated, right?” The man couldn’t believe it. He couldn’t help but touch his face, as if he wanted to get some sense of reality from it.

“It’s not just you, everyone.” The sudden voice behind him made the man jump. He hurriedly turned his head and found that it was a Ranger wearing a chain-armor shirt. The armor was wrapped with some reinforced vines, which had obviously been damaged several times in the battlefield.

“What do you mean?” The warrior man couldn’t help but ask.

“you see.” As he spoke, the Ranger pointed to a spot behind him.

On the muddy ground behind him, there were hundreds of people lying on the ground. Most of them were unconscious, and only a few Arthur players like him had just woken up.

“So, everything is true?” The man mumbled to himself, ” I thought it was a dream. Sigh ...

“don’t just lie there like an idiot.” The Ranger player warned, ” there’s something wrong with this forest. I’m afraid that if these people continue to lie down, they might never wake up again.

“And then?”

“They’ll all become zombies and skeletons.”

——–

All in all, the players were scattered across the entire Wildlands.

And the originally huge number of players, compared to the billions of people on earth, was a drop in the bucket.

If it were not for the fact that there was an existence in the player ladder that could not be defeated by human wave tactics, the crowd alone would be enough to fill up the players ‘side.

“Quick, block it!” At this moment, a girl cried and shouted.

In front of her was a zombie that was waving its arms, approaching the woman step by step.

The other party was also a human who had transmigrated to earth. In just a few hours, he had been eroded by negative energy and died in his sleep.

Immediately, the dead were transformed into zombies with atrophied muscles and sunken faces by the negative energy. Their skin turned yellow and automatically emitted a foul smell. In an instant, a few smart ones slipped away.

“Hurry up.”

the woman’s best friend looked at the men in front of her who were rubbing their fists but not taking any action.

we’ll have to look at the situation. Who knows what caused it? what if we become zombies too? ” A muscular man explained tactfully.

Behind them were hundreds of other survivors.

The horror scenes in the zombie movies where people would be infected if they touched it deeply affected everyone’s judgment.

“What kind of men are you?” The woman’s best friend cried.

Everyone looked at the woman worriedly, as if she was about to lose her life, but there was nothing they could do.

All of a sudden, a long sword appeared at the Zombie’s waist and instantly killed it with a headshot.

Then, the woman in half-body armor put away her long sword and said to the crowd, ” don’t worry, everyone. We will re-establish order. These zombies don’t have the ability to infect others. We just need to work together to kill it. Now, wake up the unconscious people.

Similar scenes kept repeating throughout the entire Wildlands.

The first wave of danger was those who didn’t wake up in time. They would slowly be transformed into zombies by the negative energy in their sleep, and even become skeletons when buried.

this was the terrifying part of this land of death, it could not be buried.

as for the areas with police and soldiers, although they were not as strong as the average players, they were more than enough to deal with one or two zombies after they overcame the contagious disease.

But at this moment, all the monsters in the Wildlands were also peeking at this group of uninvited guests.

Slowly, after getting over the initial discomfort of transmigration, the people realized that the world they had transmigrated to was not as peaceful as they had imagined. They began to form small teams to protect themselves.

In this apocalyptic atmosphere, many of the upper class of the earth had slowly realized that they had lost their greatest reliance on ” production resources.

unless they were professionals, they would not have a reputation.

With the appearance of some large animals and even ferocious beasts, these “Arthur players” who had come into contact with the game before slowly stood out on the spot.

everyone, line up. Let’s register our identities first.

The leader of the players shouted for everyone to line up. The image of him and his companions easily besieging and killing a Tiger that bit two people to death was instantly engraved in the depths of everyone’s hearts.

Otherwise, if a Tiger was allowed to wander around here, the ground would soon be covered with corpses.

“Leader, I’m done.” The Barbarian player said to his superior in real life.

At this moment, the middle-aged man with the aura of an official nodded his head in satisfaction. Xiao Qi, you did well. When we return, the higher-ups will not forget your contribution.

you should also quickly contact your previous player partners and recruit them in the name of the organization. After all, this is an emergency. Only by working together can we find a way out. The middle-aged man’s words were watertight.

However, he was also glad that this young man, who he had originally looked down on, was a player of this game. Now, he could rely on his ” power ” to control the situation.

...

With Xiao Qi’s identity as the team leader in the game, several of his men had already returned to the team and listened to his arrangements.

Hey, hey, don’t push my brother. He just finished filming yesterday and is so tired.

suddenly, there was a commotion in the original formation.

Understanding that the commotion could spread in an instant and cause an even greater mutiny, the few of them quickly jogged over.

“What’s going on?” The Barbarian named Xiao Qi asked.

suddenly, a slightly shorter woman protected a tall and handsome man behind her and explained the whole situation. at the same time, the woman had three or four other companions.

The few of them directly surrounded the man inside and protected him tightly, while the handsome man did not make a sound.

Xiao Qi, who was originally under heavy pressure, seemed to recall an unbearable memory and suddenly cursed, ” “Line up according to the rules.”

I don’t care who you were in the past, whether you were a celebrity or a rich businessman, but I want to tell you one thing!

you’re in Arthur now. You have to rely on your own hands to survive. Don’t think that you can live in peace by relying on your former glory.

so, please put away your airs. If you violate the rules, I can only ask you to leave and withdraw your protection.

...

The girl who had just spoken up to protect her idol was about to refute, but when she thought of the terrifying appearance of the Tiger that had pounced at her, the courage that she had built up with great difficulty disappeared.

yes, ” she replied, lowering her head. we’ll abide by it.

The middle-aged leader who was standing behind Xiao Qi was also shocked when he heard this.

It was just that his many years of self-cultivation skills allowed him to try his best to maintain a smile.

It was no wonder that Xiao Qi suddenly exploded at this moment. Because from the moment he transmigrated, he found that his body was no longer the weak and sickly scholar he used to be, but had really become a strong and fierce warrior.

However, the players were not living beings that were separated from society. No matter how isolated they were, they had their own family.

Family was also the most direct influence on the players.

The relatives of the players who had never come into contact with Arthur trusted their original organizations first, not the players who had already emerged. Naturally, they also advised the players to listen to the orders of the organizations that had lost their combat ability.

Naturally, after the first few hours of order was stabilized, all the transmigrators from earth in the entire Wildlands quietly formed a new manager, temporarily composed of players and the original management from earth.

Even these former management personnel were not stingy with their positions. They directly promised the positions that countless people in his previous life had accumulated for several generations but had not been able to climb up to, so that this force could be temporarily stabilized.

Soon, these groups also began to contact the nearby groups. These transmigrators from earth also slowly discovered one thing.

all the people on earth had transmigrated to the same place.

The players also realized that this area was much larger than they had expected.

“line up, we’re going to do roll call now. Don’t run around, or you won’t have a place for tomorrow’s food distribution.”

A middle-aged woman with a sharp face shouted. As someone who had dealt with the grassroots, she naturally knew the best way to scare these people.

Below her was a massive team of 1000 players, making it impossible for even a drop of water to pass through. However, this also made it easier for the players on the outer layer to patrol the area.

“What do you think Xiao Xu should do? it’s all your fault for agreeing to go on a trip with him from the start.” A middle-aged woman sighed and complained to her husband.

at that time, he said that he had something he wanted to confirm. That determined look on his face was the first time I’ve seen him grow up. The woman’s husband also sighed. you know that Xiao Xu has never asked us for anything since he was young. We’re all very considerate. He begged me so much before the exam. How could I refuse? ”

” then you see. when we passed through the regions, we followed the direction of earth. now, little xu must be in the corresponding region of shanghai. i don’t know how he’s doing, or if he’s hungry. ” The middle-aged woman was worried.

“don’t worry too much.” The husband gently pressed on his wife’s shoulder. didn’t you notice? in this apocalyptic situation, young laborers are in high demand. Once there’s a chance to become one of those people, it’s an opportunity.

The middle-aged woman finally reacted. oh, oh. I remember that Lil ‘Xu posted something in the family group chat a month ago. I think he wanted us to enter this game.

Immediately, the man said angrily, ” have you forgotten that we entered as well eight months ago? Don’t you feel that your body is different now?”

it’s a pity that Zhao Xu doesn’t like to play games. He missed the chance to rise above others.

As he spoke, he looked back and saw that the weaker elders had been eroded by the negative energy underground. Their faces were pale as if they could not survive at any time.

Suddenly, the middle-aged woman excitedly pulled on her husband’s sleeve.

“What’s wrong?” The man didn’t react.

“Yes, yes ...”

“stop! Who’s there?”

The mean woman who was counting the people scolded. However, she immediately saw that the man in front of her was wearing a cloak that shone with Starlight.

The other party was a player!

The mysterious man walked past them and walked to the middle-aged couple. dad, mom, come with me first. I’ll arrange for you to go to a safe place.

The man’s voice wasn’t loud, but it sounded heavy.

After noticing the mysterious man, the manager in charge of the area immediately rushed over. There were also two other players behind them.

Mr. Wizard, according to the emergency regulations and instructions from the higher-ups, we are temporarily recruiting you to join the Arthur player Garrison. We hope that you will obey the arrangement and work hard for the survival of mankind.

The man in the front ran over and panted as he spoke to the mysterious man.

“get out of the way.” The mysterious man’s voice was sharp and filled with killing intent.
