A Race to (Be) The Top

In the depths of the inaccessible forest, where the sun is not easily irradiated, it is easier to breed evils that cannot be seen.

The unlucky Ling Xiaolu was tied up in circles by a several-meter-long vine and hung upside down cruelly in mid-air.His hands and feet were tightly bound, and the only things he could move were his eyes and mouth.

Before that, he tried various methods, and found that this giant tentacle monster was just like his master's sunflower, which could not be dispelled by any skills, even violence.Plants in reality are beautiful and harmless, so why are the plant pets in this game more difficult to deal with than one.

"Hey! Scum! What's the use of giving me a green name?"

Ren Zha looked up at the bottom with his arms in his arms in great interest: "I just tied it up and tried it out because I didn't know what it would be useful for."

Ling Xiaolu is very angry, do you think you are buying pork, and you have to hang it up to see how much it weighs!

"Brother Luby, I'll save you!"

Nan Xun anxiously pushed the roots of the plant, but the circumference of the part of the plant close to the ground was more than twice as long as her arm span. Even with all her strength, the vines still remained motionless.

Seeing that the vines could not be shaken, Nan Xun drew out the dagger at his waist, and persistently slashed at the thick tree path with one sword after another.The damage jumped out with numbers of "-1" and "-1", Ling Xiaolu couldn't bear to watch it, but Nan Xun refused to give up.

Ren Zha's interest was aroused again by her behavior of shaking the tree. He put Ling Xiaolu aside and tilted his head to appreciate Nan Xun's overthinking.He likes to watch the confrontation between weakness and strength, which has a poignant feeling of moths flying to a flame.

Ling Xiaolu is very aware of her ability. On weekdays, Nan Xun is a casual player through and through. He spends his days watching the scenery or planting flowers and picking grass. He has almost no fighting power.Not to mention such a colossus, even the low-level mobs in the suburbs, she struggled a little to fight.

Ling Xiaolu didn't want her to continue doing useless work: "Xiao Nanxun, leave me alone, you run to a safe place first, I have a way to get away!"

Nan Xun stubbornly believed that Ling Xiaolu was tricking her into running away. If she could escape, why was she kept hanging here?

She shook her head desperately and slashed with her sword persistently.

"Nan Xun! Be obedient!" Ling Xiaolu emphasized his tone.

Nan Xun suppressed crying and said: "Brother Lubi came here to save me, now Brother Lubi is in danger, how could I run first?!"

Ren Zha clapped his hands on the sidelines: "She is also a little girl who values ​​love and righteousness. What should I do, you two are so interesting, don't you put me in a dilemma?"

He twirled the ring dissatisfied: "It's such a pity to spend so much money and only have one pet."

"Bah! Stop dreaming," Ling Xiaolu spurned him, "You can't have any of them!"

Ling Xiaolu's words inspired him, "That's right, after all, your name is green, why not start with you, maybe you won't take up the quota?"

Ren Zha was delighted with his discovery: "Then I will be the only Shangyue who has two pets at the same time in the whole server?"

"It's shameless!"

"Crack——" Nan Xun's dagger was broken after its durability was exhausted.

"Nan Xun, go!" Ling Xiaolu shouted.

"I won't let you hurt Brother Lubi!" Nan Xun put aside the broken sword, and insisted on standing in front of him, refusing to leave. Her stubborn appearance made Ling Xiaolu seem to see herself in her——Lu Toushe Absolutely Not to give up his companions, isn't that the meaning of his initial family establishment?

"Nan Xun, listen to me," Ling Xiaolu said in a deep voice, "Now you can say 'emergency logout' three times in your heart, and you can disconnect the game. As long as you are safe, I will definitely have a way to get out of here."

Nan Xun was too nervous to calmly judge whether what Ling Xiaolu said was true or not, so he was dubious: "Is it true?"

"Really! It's hard for me to leave because you're here." Ling Xiaolu was afraid that she wouldn't believe her, so he added, "At worst, I can also log off, but I must see you log off with my own eyes before I can rest assured."

Ren Zha giggled, "Do you think that going offline will be enough? Unless you never go online again, my pedestrian radar will track you all over the world."

Ling Xiaolu thought to himself, that thing doesn't work for me!

"But that would be a waste of my time," Ren Zha changed his mind about boiling the frog. "To avoid long nights and dreams, let's make a quick decision."

He looked directly into Ling Xiaolu's eyes: "SIT!"

Ling Xiaolu suddenly sank, as if the force of gravity had increased tenfold. If the vines hadn't hung him tightly in the air, he would have fallen to the ground by now.

The air is like a heavy hammer of tens of tons, oppressing him from all directions, making him unable to breathe. Beads of sweat drip down visible to the naked eye, hitting the soil vertically below one after another, leaving spots water stains.

Nan Xun was terrified: "Brother Lubi, what's wrong with you? Are you okay!"

Ling Xiaolu bit his lower lip tightly, unable to speak.

"Sure enough, my guess is right. Skills that affect pets are useful to you, but why?" The only thing Ren Zha couldn't figure out was this, "Should I report the bug to customer service?"

Want to!Ling Xiaolu shouted desperately in his heart, now no matter which customer service comes, he can save him!

But Ren Zha shook his head but broke his thoughts, "Forget it, what if the customer service fixes the bug? Then I won't be able to have you."

Ling Xiaolu felt sick when he heard it, not only because of Ren Zha's words, but also because of the skills he put on himself, which made his stomach turn upside down for a long time.

The only luck is that this single-target intimidation skill cannot cause damage to Nan Xun at the same time.Ling Xiaolu saw through half-closed eyes that Nan Xun, who was safe and sound, was worrying about him, but felt relieved.

"Down... thread..." He struggled to squeeze out the two words between his teeth.

Nan Xun was very worried, but there was nothing he could do, so he could only nod desperately: "I listen to you! I'm offline!"

She closed her eyes and murmured in her heart.

Ren Zha frowned: "No!" He tried to stop him, but the priority of emergency logout was the highest, and he watched Nan Xun disconnect.

The effect of intimidation was still there, but Ling Xiaolu heaved a long sigh of relief.

"Don't worry too soon," Ren Zha said in a bad tone, "As long as I stay here, she will definitely not escape my palm."

"What's the point..." Ling Xiaolu gasped, "Forcing... cannot be bound..."

"Of course I won't force it," Ren Zha raised the corners of his lips slightly, "I'll wait for you to volunteer."

He stared into Ling Xiaolu's eyes again: "SIT!"

A new wave of heavy pressure hit, and this pressure did not seem to be continuous, but superimposed, and Ling Xiaolu was almost suffocated.Although he promised Nan Xun sternly, it seemed that when it was his turn, there was only one way to go offline.

What happens after he goes offline is out of his control, and maybe when he goes online again, the whole server will know the identity of other people as pets... But that's better than falling into the hands of this scumbag now.

Ling Xiaolu closed his eyes and meditated: emergency offline, emergency offline, urgent...

"Brother Ruby!"

Ling Xiaolu opened his eyes in a jerk: "Nan Xun?? Why are you here again???"

Ren Zha let out a strange laugh: "I knew you couldn't bear to part with me."

Nan Xun ignored him, and shouted hopefully to Ling Xiaolu: "I got someone to inform Brother Ji Meng, and he will be here soon!"

Ling Xiaolu was in a trance for a moment, and then remembered that Nan Xun and Ji Meng knew each other in real life.Nan Xun asked someone to inform Ji Meng that with his character, he would kill him in less than a minute.

Hearing that Ji Meng would come, Ling Xiaolu suddenly felt relieved, the name seemed to have a magic spell that made people rely on it wholeheartedly.

But at the same time, he was worried, what if Ren Zha exposed his identity in front of Ji Meng?

"Are you still leaving?" He intentionally imitated Ji Meng's tone and threatened Ren Zha, "If you don't leave, your account will be lost."

Ren Zha sneered: "What? Does the crown prince still have the privilege of title?"

Ling Xiaolu looked at him with pity: "I can only help you so far."

Ji Meng came with the wind, and cut the strong vine into several sections with one sword.Ling Xiaolu fell from the sky and was caught by Ji Meng on the ground.

"How can you always be taken away? Are you Tang Seng? Why don't you call me if you are in danger!"

The emotion that Ling Xiaolu felt just because of being rescued was instantly blown away without a trace.

"First of all, I don't have your phone number! Secondly, even if I do, my hands and feet are tied, do you think I'm an octopus? You say I'm Tang Seng, isn't that implying that Nan Xun is Bajie? How dare you say such a thing?" A beautiful little girl!"

Ji Meng waited for him to finish his yelling before he said in relief: "Yes, I still have energy."

"..." Ling Xiaolu was angry, but he didn't!

However, he was hit by a fixing spell, took another breath of ecstasy powder, was hoisted up in a horrific way, and he did not know how many layers of threats were superimposed, and he persisted bravely until now. If it wasn't for Ji Meng, his legs were so weak that he couldn't stand up right now. !

"It's this bastard who bullies you." Ji Meng turned his head and glared.

"That's the scum!" Ling Xiaolu corrected, "Bullying the two of us!"

"Okay." Ji Meng let go of Ling Xiaolu, and he staggered a bit before barely stopping.

"Brother Lubi, are you okay?" Nan Xun worriedly supported him, Ling Xiaolu waved his hand.

"It's okay, you did a good job, this wave of reinforcements is timely."

Looking over there, Ji Meng fought Ren Zha without saying a word of nonsense.For the siege battle, Ji Meng updated his whole body's equipment, and all attributes were significantly enhanced. Ren Zha, who had been playing longer than him, was not his opponent, and was beaten back and forth.

"Husband played well! Don't let him go!" Ling Xiaolu made waves outside the court, and after shouting, he found Nan Xun staring at him curiously, and hurriedly explained.

"No, you know that your elder brother Ji Meng's nickname is this. Everyone in the whole server is called that, and I'm not the only one."

"Is Brother Lubi also called like that?" Nan Xun asked after breaking the casserole.

Ling Xiaolu was embarrassed to lie to the child: "...Occasionally, only occasionally."

"Brother Ji Meng, do you like it when you call him that?"

This question was asked in a unique way, "Whether he likes it or not, how could I know."

"Brother Ji Meng will be very fierce when he doesn't like it." Nan Xun made a serious face and lowered his voice, "Call again, your number is gone."

Ling Xiaolu couldn't help laughing, and praised her: "I give you full marks for this wave of cosplay."

The two chatted happily, completely unable to see that they had just experienced a "death" escape.Nan Xun didn't know whether he couldn't understand the doubts about him, or he chose not to ask them wisely, so Ling Xiaolu kept silent.

The fight over there also came to a conclusion. Ren Zha realized that he was not Ji Meng's opponent, so he weighed the situation and surrendered.

"I was wrong, please forgive me, I will never dare again." He begged for mercy as casually as drinking water.

If he resists to the end, Ji Meng will definitely not let him go.But he voluntarily surrendered. Ji Meng was not a poisonous dove, but was bound by a sense of morality, unable to deal with cruelty.

Ren Zha saw that there was something going on, so he struck while the iron was hot: "I apologize to the two of them."

He said loudly, "I'm sorry!"

Ling Xiaolu: "What's the use of being sorry!"

"I promise that from now on I will never pester Xiao Nanxun again. Whenever I see her, I will hide away and never approach her again." Ren Zha stared into Ji Meng's eyes with a very serious attitude.

Ji Meng said in a deep voice, "You swear?"

"I swear!"

Ling Xiaolu was secretly anxious, he only swore not to get close to Nan Xun, but he didn't swear not to get close to himself.But asking the other party to swear not to get close to a green name is too deliberate, and it is easy to arouse Ji Meng's suspicion.

"I really swear, believe me." Ren Zha repeated.

Seeing his sincerity, Ji Meng withdrew his huge sword with a cold snort.

"Let me see you playing Nan Xun's idea again, and your account will be gone."

"There will never be a next time." Ren Zha promised in good faith.

Ji Meng ignored him and went straight to Ling Xiaolu and Nan Xun.

"If this happens again, if you call the GM directly, the security officer will not ignore it."

"Huh? Can you still be called GM?"

"Are you stupid? Do you want to read the novice manual!" Ji Meng accused him unceremoniously.

Ling Xiaolu pouted, my novice was taught by Ling Long, how could I know.

Nan Xun nodded seriously: "I don't know this time, but I will next time."

"But there must be no next time." Ling Xiaolu was terrified, and he was afraid after thinking about it, "It's too cheap for him to forget it like this, and Nan Xun almost got his ecstasy powder."

Ren Zha, who hadn't walked away, panicked, "You, don't talk nonsense..."

Ji Meng's footsteps suddenly stopped, and his voice was cold: "What did you say?"

Ling Xiaolu just wanted to repeat, but Nan Xun tugged at his sleeve.

Ling Xiaolu:?

"Brother Ji Meng..."

Only then did Ling Xiaolu notice that Ji Meng's face was livid and expressionless.He was also very angry when he killed him just now, but now his outward anger has turned into a restrained murderous aura, his eyes are cold, Ling Xiaolu knows why Nan Xun wants to pull his sleeve, she was frightened .

"Say it again." Ji Meng's voice seemed to be fished out of an ice cave.

Ling Xiaolu suddenly burst into courage and condemned loudly: "In order to force Nan Xun to submit, this scumbag used ecstasy powder on her, and he still..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he was surprised to see Ji Meng turned his head and chased Ren Zha like crazy and slashed at him.Without any skills, and without using pets, he used his sharp giant sword, one sword at a time, to slash at the opponent without any effort.

Ren Zha was frightened by such a crazy Ji Meng, this is not a normal game attack method at all.After he blocked it twice, he gave up resisting and ran and hid, begging for mercy: "I've already sworn, I really won't touch her again!  …

"I'm telling the truth! Stop hitting! I was wrong!  …

"Please stop calling!...Enough! Are you crazy!...Is there anyone, customer service! I want to call customer service!"

The scene was so violent that even Ling Xiaolu couldn't bear to look directly at it. He silently covered Nan Xun's eyes, afraid of leaving any psychological shadow on her.

Ren Zha's exclusive customer service rushed to the scene and found that the situation was difficult to control, so he hurriedly called Ji Meng's customer service.The two teamed up to stop Ji Meng, who was out of control, and forcibly separated the two.

Ren Zha, who was scared out of his wits, hid behind a tree, panting.

"Are you crazy?! How can you beat people like this! Can you do anything wrong just because you are Ji?"

Ji Meng glared angrily, and sternly accused: "You used ecstasy powder on Nan Xun? When she went online, there was a reminder in the appointment announcement, and it was also marked in the appointment radar. You know she is underage, but you dare to use ecstasy powder on her?! "

Ling Xiaolu opened his mouth wide, revealing his original expression.Ren Zha's expression was not so good, he knew he was wrong, he was guilty and scared, fearing that Ji Meng would run wild again and lose control.

"I... I didn't want to do anything to her..."

The faces of the two customer service staff who were present also changed when they heard the words. Ren Zha's customer service staff assured Ji Meng solemnly: "Please rest assured that the player Nan Xun has underage protection, and the ecstasy powder will not have any effect on her."

She turned to Ren Zha again: "But your behavior has seriously violated the game convention. We will give an accurate verdict after rigorous verification. If necessary, we will issue a title ban."

After hearing the news, two staff members from the security department came to take Ren Zha away.

Ren Zha refused to go with them and yelled in frustration: "I bought a ring for 500 million, why should I be banned? Is this how you treat VIP customers? I will go to the Consumers Association to sue you... No, I will go to the court Sue you!...and that green name! I suspect there is something wrong with him! Xinshan cheated consumers, I want to complain!"

He was forcibly dragged away by the security personnel, and he could still be heard shouting out of embarrassment when he walked far away on Ling Xiaolu.

"It's all right now," he heaved a sigh of satisfaction, "the evil will be rewarded with evil!"

Ji Meng was obviously not satisfied enough, he went a little farther to make a phone call, and his fierce voice could occasionally reach Ling Xiaolu's ears.

"Strict investigation!" "Block his account!" "Forever!" "I don't care! It must be blocked!"...

Ling Xiaolu pursed his lips, this was the first time he had seen Ji Meng in another state, he was terrified but also kind of cute.

Ji Meng came back: "It's settled, this scumbag has been permanently blacked out even with his irises, even if the device is replaced. He is not welcome in any of Xinshan's games!"

Ling Xiaolu smiled at Nan Xun and said, "Now you can rest assured."

Nan Xun threw herself into Ling Xiaolu's arms happily, and hugged his waist affectionately: "Thank you, Brother Lubi."

Ling Xiaolu was a little embarrassed and embarrassed. After all, the character of Nan Xun was also a 16-year-old young girl by visual inspection.

"By the way, Xiao Nanxun, can you tell me how old are you?"

Nan Xun replied softly: "12 years old."

Ling Xiaolu: "..."

He raised his fist angrily: "Where did that scumbag just now go? Bring him back, and I'll beat him up too hard! Damn it! I'm so mad!!!"

Ji Meng & Nan Xun: "..."

The author has something to say: *Fear is a common control skill in the game. The general performance is to scare the enemy to run around.
