God's Gift

Strings of text flashed on the intelligent computer screen, and the students were confused as they looked at the strange contents.

"What is this?"

"Why would the intelligent computer send out these messages?"

After the silence, the students stared at the content on the intelligent computer screen that had not yet disappeared and began to whisper.

Lu Keming sensed something familiar in those words. The tone of voice was exactly the same as that of Dark Star in the secret room, but Lu Keming was a little confused.

Dark Star cannot go to other worlds in person. After they enter the trial, it usually goes into hibernation. This is the first time it has followed them through the intelligent brain.

"Could it be that the intelligent brain is being controlled by something again?"

A single stone caused a thousand ripples, and an atmosphere of panic spread among the students.

Shen Minghua, who had probably guessed the truth, didn't know how to explain the abnormality of the intelligent brain for a moment.

You can't tell others that there is a controller behind the intelligent computer, right?

Yu Youyou swept her gaze across the crowd, her bright eyes turned around, and then she raised her wrist, put it to her ear and tapped it continuously, her voice sounding puzzled.

"Who are you? Are you a monster too? Why are you talking here?"

These words, which carried a reminder, were transmitted to the intelligent computer, which instantly became quiet. The words on the screen gradually disappeared, as if nothing had happened.

After a while, a line of words appeared on the intelligent computer, which made the matter even more obvious.

"Because of the invasion of other systems, the intelligent brain data is abnormal, please don't worry too much."

After hearing the explanation given by the intelligent brain, the students present breathed a sigh of relief.

"So that's how it is. The AI ​​needs to rest quickly and drive the leader out."

Lu Keming looked at Yu Youyou, curled up his lips into a smile, took her hand, and said to the Blue Dragon members:

"Let's go."

"Yes!" Anthony responded quickly, and then took several Blue Dragon members and walked to the front in a well-trained manner to lead the way for them.

After this little episode, the group continued to move forward.

In a place they could not see, a string of codes began to appear on the intelligent computer screens on the students' wrists. Dark red text kept flashing, forming a vague image of a little boy behind them.

Yu Youyou held Lu Keming's hand, picked a dandelion from the roadside, and then looked back.

The vague shadow is getting deeper and deeper, forming a solid entity.

A gentle breeze blew, loosening the white fluff of the dandelions.

Yu Youyou turned her head expressionlessly, looked at the dandelions blown by the wind, gradually narrowed her eyes and revealed a smile, then blew the dandelions in her hand away completely.

"The wind is picking up again."

Lu Keming stood on the unobstructed street and looked into the distance. The sky at the end of the city ruins was covered by dark clouds, a dark place that the sun could not reach.

Shen Minghua heard Lu Keming's voice and looked over with him, "Is that the area in the center of the City of Despair?"

"That should be it." Lu Keming glanced at Shen Minghua with a dark look in his eyes, "Jian Gu went in that direction just now."

Yu Youyou threw the dandelion stalk into the grass nearby and looked over with them.

She stood on tiptoe, looked into the distance, and sighed, "It's so far away!"

"It's very far away." Looking at the dark sky, Ye Li muttered to himself, "I always have a bad feeling."

The greater fear than ignorance is that they clearly know that there is danger here, but they don’t know where the danger comes from. They need to be on guard all the time against danger that comes from nowhere.

Lu Keming raised his wrist and looked at the time displayed on the smart computer. He then looked up at the position of the sun and frowned slightly.

"It's only four o'clock now. Judging from the position of the sun here, it will be completely dark in less than three hours."

Ye Li's expression became serious, "Wei Xi said that we must enter Fenglin Hotel before dark, let's go."

As soon as she finished speaking, one of the Blue Dragon members who was exploring the way ahead suddenly fell down.

Anthony, who was at the front, immediately turned back and asked the boy loudly, "Odin! Odin! What's wrong with you?"

But hot sweat dripped down Odin's forehead as he fell, his body kept twitching, his chest heaving, and streams of vomit gushed out of his mouth.

Lu Keming's expression froze, and he took Yu Youyou a few steps to the front.

Shen Minghua and Ye Li also followed.

Fang Ziang, who had been standing nearby for a long time, looked at Odin, who had no response no matter how the people around him called out, with an unpleasant expression, "He is no longer conscious."

"Your body is so hot!" Anthony wanted to reach out to feel Odin's breath, but after touching his skin, he immediately felt the abnormal temperature.

"He has a fever." Ye Li squatted down, avoiding Odin's vomit, and touched Odin's forehead.

Her eyes swept over Odin's body, and after noticing his unusually stiff neck, she reached out and lifted Odin's head.

But Odin's neck was as straight as steel.

Looking at Odin's reaction, Lu Keming's eyes darkened, as if he had thought of something. He inexplicably took Yu Youyou's hand and took a few steps back.

"Stand back!" Ye Li glanced at Odin's vomit and her expression became serious. She quickly stood up and snorted at those who wanted to touch Odin, "Don't touch him first!"

Anthony looked confused, but still stood up and walked away despite Ye Li's serious expression.

"What's going on here?"

Ye Li slowly raised his head and looked at the people around him, and expressed his guess: "This looks like epidemic encephalitis."

Looking at the puzzled people, Ye Li explained: "In ancient times, it was also called plague."

Hearing this name, everyone finally reacted and retreated in panic.

"Encephalitis? How could that happen?" Anthony's voice was filled with disbelief. "Blue Dragon members undergo a unified physical examination every six months, and Odin's reports show that they are all very healthy."

Ye Li took out a handkerchief and kept wiping the palm that had touched Odin. "There have been several major outbreaks of epidemic encephalitis in District E. I have personally seen how those people became ill and how they died."

Shen Minghua's face changed, and he quickly walked to Ye Li's side, took out disinfectant from the storage space, and poured it on Ye Li's hand.

The students around were still dazed, as if they had never heard of such a thing, Ye Li looked at Shen Minghua who kept wiping her hands, and took a breath.

"This is a disease that existed more than 4,000 years ago. It has long since disappeared in other areas of the Central Continent. However, in the crowded and backward E Area, where excrement and garbage are mixed together and rats and mosquitoes run rampant, plagues like this have been a nightmare that has accompanied us for many years."

"Is there such a thing?" Anthony asked, and then subconsciously looked at Lu Keming who was also in Area E, "Master?"

There was no wave in Lu Keming's indigo eyes. He held Yu Youyou's hand tighter and said calmly, "You may not die."

Yu Youyou tilted her head to look at Lu Keming's profile, thinking that he just glanced at Odin and led her back as if he knew the situation.

He should have experienced it.

Yu Youyou pursed her lips and glanced at Odin who was lying in pain on the ground. Her bright eyes flashed with unclear emotions.

But Anthony didn't hear any hidden meaning, "Master, how do you know this won't necessarily lead to death?"

"It depends on your luck." Lu Keming did not give a specific answer. He glanced sideways at Yu Youyou and stroked his forearm.

Under the cloth is the mark of the gods.

Lu Keming lowered his eyes and looked at Odin, whose vitality was gradually disappearing on the ground, and murmured: "Maybe it's just like what they said, I am a lucky person."

He was lucky enough to be blessed by God, which allowed him to survive illness and disaster again and again.
