After seeing the true face of the god that day, the seed called ambition was planted in Xie Changli's heart.

It spread in his blood vessels like this, constantly stirring his heart, urging him to climb all the way to this leaning tower.

The second job went well, and I got a lot of points.

It's just that his colleague's condition has been getting worse and worse recently.

Xie Changli stopped working and looked sideways at his colleagues.

In the darkness, the faint light on the cane revealed a face full of bloodshot eyes. Panting heavily, he swung the cane vigorously, and the ever-increasing points on the watch beat him like a whip to continue.

"Up...to the top...climbing..." he murmured.

As soon as Xie Changli stopped moving his hands, the hallucinations that he hadn't subsided all this time still existed, and the shadow that looked like a raven seemed to throb even more intensely after hearing these words.

After the work was over, the two walked wearily on the corridor back with their walking sticks.

From here, he could still see the turbulent ocean at the bottom. At some point, the layer he was originally on had been swallowed up by this endless ocean.

"It's a good thing to go fast." The colleague stood beside him, looking down at the same place, and said abruptly.

During this period of time, this colleague talked less and less, and instead spent more and more time in ecstasy. Communicating with him at this time surprised Xie Changli.

Soon, this surprise subsided again, and the colleague who had just been normal for a while began to look up at the summit again.

Looking up from here, you can only see that the top is shrouded in white light.

"I got the top..." he continued.

Xie Changli felt as if he had been split into two halves. On the one hand, the ambition flowing in his blood was stirring with this sentence; It's so abnormal.

From this dispassionate perspective, the employees on this floor were more silent and aggressive than his former floor.

They passed by him like walking dead holding their sticks, silent like a corpse, but they could burst out with terrifying passion from the bottom of their eyes the moment they raised their heads.

All are yearning to go up, up to the top.

Xie Changli only felt shuddering.

As his colleagues said, he had good luck, and the unexpected meeting that day brought him a lot of benefits.

It was another day when he went out to work normally, the electronic sound of the flat panel announced his number, announcing that he would have a new job——

"Go to the hail room and start new work."

Countless envious eyes cast on him, among which that colleague's eyes were especially fierce.

This time, he was alone in the transfer, a colleague who would soon become an ex-partner.

I have to make some preparations, Xie Changli thought.

The location of the hail chamber was slightly higher than theirs, but it couldn't reach the upper floor.

What he saw when he went in was an iceberg, and the cane in his hand was replaced with a pickaxe. According to the requirements, he needed to climb on the iceberg to knock off the ice blocks above it like other employees.

These ice cubes will roll down the mountain, all the way into the water.

Xie Changli sometimes felt that the iceberg below was very hard, so hard that it was difficult to knock off a small piece of ice with all his strength, and sometimes it was so soft that clear water flowed out when he smashed it.

Sometimes he would look around at these streams of water like gurgling blood, and what was sealed under one piece of ice was overlapping bones.

This floor and the few newly transferred employees at a glance are still active, unlike those old people who have a cold and silent atmosphere. One of them seems to be transferred from another special job position, and from time to time he will bring In a nostalgic tone, he spoke about the dazzling job back then: "My cane is stretched out to the sky, and the sun has to avoid it..."

Xie Changli was too lazy to listen to these bragging words, but the raven who was following him became excited again, and even wanted to fly away from him and land on the shoulder of the person who was talking.

The shadow-like raven failed to leave his side and was forced to stop. It seemed that he muttered a few more words. Xie Changli vaguely heard: "Hail...long night...disaster..."

Xie Changli frowned, for some reason, he felt a little uneasy about it.

But soon he didn't have time to deal with these anomalies.

On the way back to the dormant cabin, there is a narrow passage, which is the area where the eyeballs that monitor them are most often neglected, and it is also the place where some employees often go missing.

As soon as Xie Changli walked in there, he felt something cold press against his lower back, and the familiar voice of his ex-colleague sounded: "Long time no see, how is your recent work?"

The man in front of him slowly raised his hand, even in this critical moment, with a calmness that he couldn't get used to: "Speak up if you have something to say."

The ex-colleague didn't want to have a good talk with him, and was more venting his anger: "Now the sea water is rising faster and faster, it will start soon, how can you be the first to come up at this time..."

boom--

The sticky, wet and warm liquid covered his back and trickled down from his long hair.

Xie Changli was used to this kind of scene, he turned around blankly, watching this former colleague who acted impulsively lost his head and fell in front of him.

And the eyeball is slowly retracting the weapon.

Generally speaking, these things that monitor them will operate according to certain rules. This narrow road is indeed opened by the government, and it is a place for them to carry out some shady tricks by default.

However, some suspicious people will get special attention from the eyeballs.

Xie Changli naturally managed to attract the attention of these eyeballs with his daily fishing attitude and socially isolated behavior.

Therefore, under the current circumstances, monitoring might not be a form of protection for him.

There was a big hole in the ground under his feet, and soon a person's corpse became a ration.

Xie Changli turned around, intending to take a shower and change clothes, but the eyeballs in front of him changed, and green vines spread from behind the eyeballs like tentacles.

A soft and indistinguishable voice sounded: "This is your plan? It's very clever. You don't have to do it yourself, it's much better than the rest of them."

Xie Changli realized that the people who could manipulate these monitors so easily were probably the group of people living at the top who were infinitely close to gods.

He was not afraid, instead he asked the question neatly: "What does it mean that he said before he died that it is about to start?"

"You want to know?" There was another soft laugh from the other side, obviously the person talking to him was not just a "god".

Xie Changli acquiesced.

"It's a simple cleansing activity, we have to put enough nutrients into the ocean below."

"Although he is never satisfied, a suitable sacrifice can still make him rest for a while."

"You should also notice that we assume that some people who do not work well should be cleared?"

The voices of several men and women came from the opposite side one after another.

Xie Changli: "What if it really spread to the peak?"

He vetoed his own thoughts again: "No, no, before reaching the top, all the lower levels are its food, and you can always rest easy."

"Similarly, accumulating enough points to continue to climb is probably a lie. You don't have many resources. If you have immortality, you will not be eliminated naturally. You will only reduce competitors as much as possible," Xie Changli continued. "What is the purpose of the work we are doing? To make ourselves more delicious? Or to provide him with food in another sense?"

There was a burst of laughter from the opposite side.

Someone arrogantly said: "Ordinary people will never climb to the top."

Some people also said: "I like you like this, do you really not consider signing a contract with us? You will be the best messenger and will exercise all powers under the light of the gods."

real world.

Under the swarm of insects covering the sky and the sun, theories about the doomsday began to become popular on the Internet, and the atmosphere of panic continued to spread.

In contrast, the rescue teams sent by humans continuously, the rune printing system left by Xie Changli helped a lot, and with the runes provided by the employees from Infinity Service Company, the large-scale bloodshed is still Did not happen.

On the way back, Xia Shen also rescued several young couples, children and elderly people, took them to a supermarket with a lot of supplies, and reinforced the shutter door of the supermarket with runes. Can guarantee their safety.

However, he raised his head and looked at the dark sky above his head.

Now it is no longer the swarms of insects covering the sky, but the sun has been covered by dark clouds, and the constantly blowing wind brings coolness. The thermometer on the car shows that the temperature has dropped from 26 degrees to 16 degrees.

When he parked the car in front of the villa, rolling thunder and lightning were brewing in the sky, accompanied by crackling sounds.

Large chunks of white solids fell from the sky. They were pieces of hailstones, each the size of a fist, and they would leave a deep pit when they hit the ground. Some of the hailstones were mixed with fire, and burned when they fell. Trees and grass.

After a while, the whine of fire trucks sounded from the streets and alleys.

Xia Shen took out his phone and glanced at the work group of the special department.

Sure enough, two other disasters came at the same time: ranches all over the country began to report the sudden death of cattle and sheep, and hospitals all over the country began to have some patients with blisters on their bodies.

"Brother Xia." Du Ya hurried out when he heard the voice at the door, and rushed over with the invitation letter between his wings, "I feel that something is wrong with that tower. Brother Xie is negotiating terms with the people at the top of the tower. People seem to want him to do more disaster-related work!"

Du Ya was certain: "He definitely doesn't know anything now!"

Xia Shen took the invitation letter, and saw the word "Wanghai" written on it at a glance, and felt that the handwriting was very familiar.

Before he could think about it, he had entered the dungeon world and was standing on a vast ocean. When he looked up, he saw the lonely tower crumbling on the ocean.

There happened to be a person standing in the window on the tower, with white hair draped over his shoulders, and his figure reflected in blood-colored eyes, it was Xie Changli.

"Who are you?" Xie Changli asked subconsciously.
