His Majesty the Demon King of Justice

On December 2017, 12, it took more than a day to make preparations, and Wang Lin, who was full of confidence, reappeared in the most prosperous section of Tashan Square in City A.

"I... there aren't many people who meet the requirements for mental strength." There are quite a lot of people who come out to play on weekends. Sitting by the bus platform, Wang Lin glanced over and saw that there were densely packed people, but he took out the mirror and scanned. Well, among so many people, I can't see a few with outstanding spiritual power.

Target selection condition [-]: Mental strength must be higher than the average level, at least at the level of an entry-level magic apprentice like Wang Lin, otherwise... Fu Youqing's kind of useless salted fish will be meaningless no matter how many you get.

"Hey, this is not bad." Suddenly, I found that a certain young man who was shopping had a strong mental strength (the activity of the soul reflected in the mirror), but after a closer look... the color of this young man's soul was a bit white, Wang Lin Immediately rolled his eyes.

Selection target condition [-]: Don’t be too kind. Pure forms are absolutely not acceptable, and white ones are also not acceptable. This kind of people are prone to impulsive feelings of self-sacrifice when they get emotional, and they will destroy the evil demon king’s army even if they fight to the death.——Wang Lin Duo was free to fart to cause trouble for himself.Of course, you can't have the darker ones. Such a guy's bottom line is too low, and he is always cynical and commits secondary school, which is more troublesome than the whiter ones.It's better, like Wang Lin himself or Xie Jie, who can barely be regarded as a good person and a little selfish...

"Oh, this one is just right, but it's a pity that I'm a bit older." Staring at a smiling aunt for a while, Wang Lin patted his thigh regretfully.

Selection target condition three: too old can not. People over the age of 40 have basically formed a world view, and their life circles are relatively fixed and stable. It is difficult to accept major changes in their life trajectory.The best target group is still young people, those who have not passed the second stage of middle school, who can accept reality but are yy supernatural are the best.

Just squatting in this most bustling section of the city with the most traffic for a whole day, Wang Lin picked out five people and gave each one a spiritual link.That night, after twelve o'clock in the evening, Xie Sanyuan, who received the task, put on a stepmother's face, pinched his nose and ran several field trips with Wang Lin, and stole the five "sons of the devil" one by one... fell asleep It's the best, if you don't fall asleep, Wang Lin can give you a sleep command that doesn't even count as a magic trick—ahem, that's what Zhang Rutai used when he "kidnapped" Zhang Rutai. The owner directly ordered the brain to enter a deep sleep state, the effect is similar to hypnosis but without the suggestive effect of hypnosis, it can only be used as a harmless sleeping medicine.

The old light bulb factory, which is about five kilometers away from the new living area, has been closed for many years and no one has taken over it. Because of the distance from the urban area, the land has not been requisitioned by the city government. A few lonely buildings are lonely. It is located at the foot of a barren mountain that is barren and lacks water, and there is not even a village around it.

Generally speaking, this kind of place will become a spiritual resort in urban legends. However... the road leading to this place is too old. They didn't know that there was a light bulb factory in this place that had been bankrupt and closed for more than ten years, so naturally there was no chance of becoming a place of urban legends.

Now... at two o'clock in the morning on December 12th, the light bulb factory, which had been deserted for many years, finally had the opportunity to welcome the living human beings it hadn't seen for n years.

In the roughly cleaned abandoned factory building, under the light of two rechargeable emergency lights, five cheap cotton quilts at 50% off in the shopping mall are lined up in five strips, and five men and women in deep sleep lie flat on them. Because of the cold weather, these average prices The discounted quilt of less than [-] yuan took over the functions of bedding and covering. At a glance, it looks like five giant "caterpillars" glowing with white light...

"I always feel that my lower limit is constantly being lowered, and I can actually do this kind of behavior of kidnapping ordinary people." Xie Sanyuan, who was squatting next to the emergency light, stared at the dead fish eyes, quietly and authentically.

"Don't say that, Sister Xie, we are just testing whether they have the quality to be younger brothers... Uh, it's just a part of the Extraordinary Legion. Now you look at them and feel guilty. Maybe they will be grateful to you when they come out in the future." Not necessarily." Wang Lin checked the mental state of the five people, and casually comforted them without sincerity.

Xie Sanyuan sighed: "Don't put gold on your face, what is extraordinary is not extraordinary, isn't it just to make up for a lie and tell a bigger lie and implicate others."

"That's why there is a need for testing and assessment. If it is not suitable, we will send it back safely, and if it is suitable, it will develop..." Wang Lin put on a straight face, and he refused to admit Xie Jie's statement, "You Think about it carefully, the daily life in this society is so boring now, how many people are doing yy once through the drastic changes in life, subverting the boring daily life, challenging the unknown world and reaching the pinnacle of life, not only can yy enter the end of the world, but also yy can produce biochemistry Mutated Cambrian and other routines came out...Compared to traveling through the end of the world, our "safety" is so high that I don't know where it is."

Xie Sanyuan Dead Fish Eye: "It's alright, alright, it's all right for you - your sixth-generation illusion rune really won't cause problems, right?"

"Of course not~" Wang Lin finished his inspection, and took out a black seed the size of a ping-pong ball. For online online games, oh no, it should be said that it is similar to the neural connection games in online game novels. The plots are all mandatory to prevent different people from connecting and creating an own battle between giants and fat squirrels. The number of player deaths is limited to only one time. If you fail, you will be eliminated and will not kill infinitely, the sense of reality will be reduced to 50%, and only a little memory will remain when you die in the illusion, and it will not activate any Chinese Holy Light Party and will not kill people, it is completely o special k!"

"..." Xie Sanyuan stared at the game-poisoned dead house, unable to complain.

Quiet, 32 years old, the owner of a bookstore on Tashan West Road in City A.As the name suggests, this bookstore owner is very introverted and taciturn. He has no friends and no enemies. He quietly guards the bookstore and lives a prosperous and ordinary life. He can be called an ordinary citizen in the new China era. Standard template.

But... People who look happy often have their own wounds. An Jing, a good person in a broad sense who usually smiles at book customers, employees and customers, including the sanitation workers who stop in the store, is actually a depression patient.Pessimism, world-weariness, and serious negative emotions are all hidden under the gentle face of the bookstore owner.

Like the vast majority of depression patients, Jing Jing is unable to confide the pain in her heart to others. She has learned to hide her real self with a gentler smile. It must always appear to be full of positive energy; while yearning for the warmth of the sun, it slides into the abyss uncontrollably, if there is no accident... maybe until one day, after this man who always smiles gently chooses to commit suicide, he will be by his side Only one person will realize that he is a person who needs to be rescued and needs someone to lend a helping hand.

Just like in the past, before falling asleep, he was anxious and pessimistic about how to "suicide" can minimize the impact on the people around him. Jing Jing had no idea how he fell asleep. When he regained consciousness, he found...he was in the A world that doesn't feel like reality at all.

The gray and dark-toned sky, the incomplete and decayed shell of skyscrapers, the huge faded billboards, the empty sidewalks and roadsides covered in dust and rusty cars Class vehicles, garbage and debris blown up by the wind from time to time, dirty floor tiles with cracks on the surface...

Quiet was terrified, sat up suddenly, and looked around at this city scene that seemed to be in the end of the world. Whether it was the huge faded billboards or the incomplete buildings, he was familiar with it... Isn't this what he would do every day when he went to the bookstore to open the door? Did you pass Tower Hill Square? !The iconic pagoda on the hill was so familiar to him, but now that pagoda is also broken, and the top half of the pagoda is gone? !

I am dreaming?An Jing pinched his face subconsciously, and the real pain was immediately transmitted from the nerve endings in his cheeks to his brain, making his legs go limp and he fell directly to the ground—was it a dream? !

"Fuck?!"

A voice that almost broke his throat sounded, Jing Jing's hair exploded, and he turned his head suddenly, surprised to see that there were still a few people behind him.

The one yelling was a young man who looked to be in his twenties, with curly mid-length hair, wearing pajamas similar to hotel bathrobes, stepping on the ground with his bare feet, with an expression on his face It vividly interprets what textbook-style ignorance is.

The young man straightened his neck and stared at the road full of broken down cars outside the square for a few seconds, then suddenly raised his hand, and slapped himself hard... This guy is quite capable of slapping his hand, the sound of the slap The decibels were similar to the words he yelled just now, and his cheeks immediately flushed visible to the naked eye.

"Pain, pain, pain!!" This teaser grinned in pain, jumped twice on the spot, and then roared out of control, "What the hell, I was kidnapped? What the hell is this? The end of the world? Infinite flow? Infinite terror?"

No one could answer the young man's question, and the other three were all woken up by him.

Wu Lili woke up with a groan on her forehead. She drank two extra cans of beer during dinner, and fell asleep on the bed without taking a shower after returning to the hotel.It’s just that somehow, after drinking and sleeping, she actually had a nightmare. In the dream, she was chased by a large group of monsters, and she had nowhere to go. She vaguely knew that she might be dreaming, but she just couldn’t wake up—opened her eyes and looked Surroundings, I touched the dusty ground with my hands, and my hands were covered with ash, and then secretly pinched my thigh... Wu Lili was suddenly textbook-like and on the verge of mental collapse... Nima is not as good as Keep dreaming!

Five people with different ages, experiences, and social identities behaved differently after waking up. Quiet just sat on the ground with limp feet and couldn't get up. The young ones used their words to adjust their emotions, Wu Lili tried her best to hold back her tears, and the middle-aged man refused to accept the reality, so she straightened her pajamas and lay down to sleep.

The last person who woke up had a rather unique behavior. This was a young man with greasy hair, very thin, dirty thermal underwear, and probably not very hygienic. This person first sat on the ground and carefully observed the surrounding environment, and then slowly Get up slowly, carefully avoid the broken stones on the floor tiles and walk out - only An Jing among the five people is wearing ordinary clothes and shoes, and the other four are pajamas and bare feet.

No one of the other four questioned why the young man walked away, and no one thought of calling him to stop him. The face of the vehicle beside him changed, and he turned around and fell back again.

"Several... We may have come to a place where there are no human beings for some unknown reason." The young man said, stretching out his hand and pointing to the back, "Although the cars parked on the side of the road look tattered, but There are no traces of a car accident, and there is no blood or anything like that in the car, as if all the cars parked there one night were abandoned by their owners...or in other words, all human beings suddenly disappeared one night."

Except for the middle-aged man who was still huddled into a ball and wanted to sleep, the other three more or less accepted the reality, and Doubi Xiaonian answered in a daze after hearing the words: "Isn't that still the end of the world? What's the difference?"

"In the last days, if human beings die on a large scale in a relatively short period of time, then there will definitely be a series of horrible car accidents in the city center during the mass death, and it will not be as 'tidy' as what we see now." The young man said, "The most important thing is... If it is the end of the world, no matter what reason we were kidnapped here, it means that we are doomed - the end of the world in the conventional sense cannot actually be rebuilt. There are so many people in the world. The nuclear power plant loses maintenance personnel, and the nuclear material "leaks" after the expiration date, and all creatures in the world have to be cleaned."

"Oh my god!" Doubi Xiaoqing's legs are weak, even if thrown into such an inexplicable place, people still have an instinctive desire to survive, don't you want to die at all!

"On the contrary... This kind of situation where all human beings suddenly disappear and leave a relatively intact city is something that cannot be formed in the conventional apocalypse." The young man sighed, "Since sending living people to this place unknowingly is so unreasonable. All scientific things can be done, so I think...the place we are standing at now is not the real apocalypse nor the real world, but it is very likely that some creature or force we cannot understand imitates the reality in some way A place artificially created by the city. If my guess is in the right direction, then we should still have a way to survive."

Wu Lili didn't understand, and the funny young man also looked confused, only An Jing looked up at the young man, with a vaguely surprised look on his face.

The young man didn't expect these strangers to have a heart-to-heart with him, and explained his views to them—no matter what the guy who sent them to this place was trying to do, it would not be easy to waste so much effort To kill them is much more difficult than killing people.

"Hey, this guy is quite clever." Wang Lin was surprised, "The appearance is similar to Qingzi's salted fish, but he is still a talent."

"You take Qingzi as the standard to measure talents?" Xie Sanyuan's mouth twitched.

"That's not true. I'll take him as the limit." Wang Lin frankly betrayed his gay friend.

The sixth generation of illusion runes does not only stimulate the spiritual realm of the subject like the previous generations, but constructs a fantasy world that directly acts on the soul and then draws the soul of the subject into it. Consumables for harvesting soul energy have less impact on the subject's soul and spiritual realm. Similarly, Wang Lin's influence in this fantasy world is stronger than that of the previous generations of runes... Uh, to put it bluntly, he Just like the GM of the illusion world, it is not difficult to project the reaction process of the subject in the illusion world, so that there is no need to carefully release the mental power to observe.

This young man is indeed a talent, and all he does is to unite these people with an incentive to survive. Sure enough, after explaining his point of view, Doubi Xiaonian almost hugged his thigh on the spot, and Wu Lili and Anjing also Show an attitude of being on the same side as him.

On the contrary, the middle-aged man curled up on the ground, although he also pricked up his ears to listen to the analysis, and his eyes fluttered under his eyelids, he just lay motionless and refused to get up.

"This person seems to be the kind of person who can't survive the first three chapters in the infinite stream." Xie Sanyuan complained, "Lin Zi, don't pick this type next time, his family lives far away, and it takes a long time to travel back and forth. "

"You may not believe it, but I saw this person in the daytime is very elegant... how do I know that he will look like this after the test." Wang Lin dead fish eyes, "Okay, the 'players' have also accepted the reality, It's time for the guide npc to appear..."

"Can you stop using game metaphors for such a serious matter!"

"There's someone!" Several people were telling each other their names and origins, and when they were surprised that they were all kidnapped from City A, the sharp-eyed Wu Lili suddenly pointed at the entrance of the underground shopping mall and shouted.

"Here's a newcomer." A... burly man came out from the entrance of the passage in response. This man had a beard, a thick face, and a very thick body. He was wearing a camouflage uniform and stepped on thick-soled military boots. As soon as he came out, he strode towards several people, and even grinned and gave a not-so-kind grin.

The few people who just exchanged names were a little confused, and more nervous. It is natural for a stranger who does not look like a good person to be vigilant and nervous in such a ghost town. With a pale face, the young man took two steps back and moved closer to the other three, while Jing Jing subconsciously stood in front of Wu Lili.

"Hey, this stuffy gourd has a good nature." Xie Sanyuan said in surprise.

The burly man stood still at a distance of five or six meters, smirked and looked them all over with stern eyes...Suddenly he laughed loudly: "Okay, don't be nervous, we are actually fellow travelers. City A was kidnapped, right?"

The young man had previously reported his name as Zhu Yuan, a native of other provinces, and was accidentally involved when he came to G Province for fun. At this time, seeing this big man suddenly "change his face", the self-proclaimed witty Zhu Yuan couldn't react, and he took a moment to control it. Make a good facial expression and try to be as calm as possible: "Hello, are you...?"

"My name is Fu Guangqing." Wang Lin shamelessly put together the names of Fu Youqing and his brother and used them... After the big man reported his family, he asked impatiently, "When were you kidnapped?" What year, month and date did you come in?"

"Uh... December 17, 12." Zhu Yuan said.

"Really..." Fu Guangqing sighed, showing a complicated expression, "I was thrown in on December 17, 12...but I have been here for seven years."

"What?!" Several people were shocked.

"The area where you are standing has had a group of people before you. Counting the date you came in, one day outside is roughly equal to one year here." Fu Guangqing said.

"What the hell is this place?" Zhu Yuan couldn't help asking.

"I don't know." Fu Guangqing spread his hands, "What can only be confirmed is... every once in a while, a group of newcomers will appear in this city, and the areas that appear are random, but only the same place will appear in the same area. The people who were kidnapped. The side of Tashan Square next to the West Street is probably the people from our city A who are regularly refreshed, the part near the East Street is sent in from City Y, and the part at the foot of Tashan is from the province K... Over the years, I have traveled everywhere, and there are more than 200 areas in the city where people will be sent in."

It was difficult for Zhu Yuan to accept what this person said for a while. Doesn't this mean that more than 1000 people in China disappeared in seven days in real time? !

"What's the matter with these people?" Wu Lili stood up from behind An Jing, holding back her fear.

Fu Guangqing didn't speak, but showed a weird expression that made people feel a little creepy.
