Stop, I'm about to become a boss!

Chapter 165 The hidden meaning of the players

As the bright red of the long tube of blood on the top of [Earth Burrower Lizard]'s head was gradually occupied by gray, Linton slowly looked away.

He used to see someone posting videos about group bosses on the forum every day, but the organization and discipline of the players there were far inferior to the current batch, and he couldn't even see them except when the world boss was open. Where can so many players work together.

[Earth Drilling Dragon Lizard] If it is intelligent, it must be baffled by the treatment it receives.

I'm just a small leader BOSS, and I'm not even the gatekeeper of the group book. Isn't it somewhat wasteful for you to use the battle against the boss to deal with me?
——Waste, naturally it is impossible to waste.

The Tyrannosaurus warrior brought Linton here, of course, it was impossible to simply watch a dragon-slaying lizard performance organized by the players.

He stared at Linton and asked, "Xiao Hei, do you know why I brought you to see this?"

Linton gave him a surprised look.

It is very common for players to ask questions to NPCs, but it is basically based on the needs of a certain task, and the player needs to obtain clues to complete the task.

It's really rare to ask a question like this without thinking.

After pondering for a moment, Linton said slowly: "First of all, this is not an impromptu performance, is it?"

The Tyrannosaurus warrior nodded: "That's right, we found this dragon lizard during the initial exploration, and in order not to wake it up, we deliberately avoided it during construction."

"The tactics issued by the commander are also the result of the members of the 'Ministry of Foreign Affairs' staying awake for three days and three nights, collecting all kinds of information about the [Earth Burrower Lizard]. It includes how to eliminate it and at the same time Its destructive power is minimized, it does not affect the dungeon, and there are details such as who should do what when the time comes."

Linton smiled softly: "Since it is a specially arranged performance, and it has been so carefully designed, and the only audience invited is me, I think there must be something I care about?"

Tyrannosaurus Warrior continued to nod.

"Then the answer is obvious?" Linton shrugged and said, "You guys want to express that you have the strength to help me and Lapa City get the first place in [Brilliant Gladiator]."

The Tyrannosaurus warrior sighed: "Xiao Hei, you have such a meticulous mind, and you have emotions that human beings can possess. In addition, the emotions and sorrows of the people here are as rich as real people. Sometimes we all doubt whether this place is really human. Is it a real world, and you, will you be real people?"

Linton's heart trembled violently.

In fact, when he was a player, there were always rumors on the forum about whether "The Kingdom of Heaven" would be the real world, but at that time, he only believed in things that had been proven by science, and did not believe that science had never explored world, so he has always scoffed at this rumor.

But now, it's different.

He is already one of the organisms in this world.

In the face of the Tyrannosaurus warrior's inquiry, which seemed to be sighing but was actually probing, Linton could only show doubts, as if he didn't understand or didn't hear clearly.

Tyrannosaurus Warrior slapped his head, thinking that his words were blocked by the system again.

"Block it, just block it, I'm just talking, you can't be real people - there was a news a few days ago, saying that there have been people in the world that can truly simulate human emotions, and use certain laws to express them. An AI that thinks in a human way, and the parent company behind that company seems to be the creator of "Kingdom of Heavenly Law."

He shrugged: "You should be the data transformed by this AI."

Linton's little heart beat again.

What's the news?
Why, he had never heard of it before traveling?

"Oh, my mouth." The Tyrannosaurus Warrior patted himself and muttered, "Since I became a grandma, I have become more and more able to speak, and the words are all useless nonsense, there is no nonsense Why does the water stop and stop frequently!"

With two dry coughs, Tyrannosaurus Warrior finally got his topic back on track.

He said seriously: "Xiao Hei, you are right, but you are only partly right."

"Huh?" A question mark slowly floated out of Linton's head.

Tyrannosaurus Warrior tried to avoid nonsense and explained, "Since the news came out, the bosses of the research institute have been very curious about a question, if you can simulate human thinking, can you experience the emotions that others give you? "

"Huh?" Linton's doubts became deeper and deeper.

Broken, I became a test subject?
"We didn't mean to use you as an experiment. Forget it, such words should also be blocked by the system." Tyrannosaurus warrior stroked his thoughts, and said carefully, "In short, thank you!"

"???" Even with Linton's quick thinking, he couldn't comprehend the meaning of such a sudden leap in the conversation.

But soon, the Tyrannosaurus warrior who had cleared his mind answered his doubts.

"Haven't we been expelled by other city-states before?" He said softly, "In fact, we all know how heinous and disgusting our actions are. Even if there are no plot factors, driven by "simulation emotions", crimes With such a high rate, we will definitely be doomed to be blocked - we have already annoyed the public."

"After we arrived, because we were noisy and troublesome, it didn't take long for most ordinary people in the city-state to feel very displeased with our existence because of our behavior, including the residents of Lapa City. ,also the same."

After a pause, he continued, "This is a feeling we, as players, have never experienced before."

"—Professed to be the protagonist, but was cast with disgust by the supporting cast and cannon fodder."

"Because of this, under the guidance of the rebellious heart, the crime rate of us people is also rising steadily, making all the city-states have no peace for a day, and the follow-up incidents caused by the defeat of Laixi City are just the fuse—— After learning that NPCs will simulate the behavior of others and generate corresponding emotions, everyone is discussing how NPCs will deal with players who make trouble."

"The result has already come out, that is to drive everyone away." Tyrannosaurus Warrior shrugged, "Of course, even though we have already guessed what might happen, we are still very unhappy."

"—We are so proud, so powerful, and so capable, how dare you drive us out like this?"

The tyrannosaurus warrior scratched his head: "It's a bit harsh to say, but most of the people who were kicked out thought this way."

"At this time, when you accepted us despite the pressure of all the city-states and the residents of Lapa City, although we didn't say it, we still thank you very much in our hearts-in fact, we said it, but you couldn't see it."

No, on the forum, I can see it, but I just haven’t read it recently. Linton secretly slandered, still smiling: “It’s just a little thing.”

"It's a big deal." The Tyrannosaurus Warrior said seriously, "Especially, you gave us a piece of land."

“When we got here, we really began to experience the fun of this game—those who want to farm fields, those who want to build houses, and those who want to do whatever they want. Everyone can find a position that they can’t find in reality here. so."

Tyrannosaurus Warrior took a deep breath and said sincerely: "Thank you very much!"

Before Linton could speak, he said again: "Of course, we all know that verbal thanks are meaningless, so we organized this 'performance' to kill the boss."

He pointed to the dragon lizard whose blood bar was about to be emptied and said: "Through this performance, what we want to tell you is that although we are very weak individually, the strength of unity is terrifying, and after a certain period of time, we can Beat anyone you want to beat for you."

"--any."

He repeated it.

The articulation is clear and powerful.

It's like telling some guys that the road is narrow.

"—You guys, wait until you regret it!"

"Speaking with confidence."

In the Lord's Mansion of Lapa City, Linton couldn't help feeling a little emotional every time he recalled the words of the Tyrannosaurus Warrior.

He knew that the players had always had a strong desire for revenge, but he didn't expect that the players actually wanted to take revenge on other city-states in this way.

That's right, simply crushing them is better than supporting one of their opponents and crushing them where they value the most.

But after calming down and thinking about it carefully, Linton felt that this was not the only thing the players wanted to express.

In most cases, showing your skills is usually to express your abilities to your collaborators, and the reason why you want to show your abilities is to gain greater benefits.

"We are very good, we can do a lot of things, but the premise for us to do these things is that you have to pay us to match it."

Although the players didn't say it directly, the hidden meaning in their words was just like this. At the same time, they also hinted that they hoped that Linton would give them more resources.

"How cunning."

Linton grinned.

The little player still wants to get wool from the NPC.

It is a pity that players are destined to be only participants in the game, not producers.

Just as Linton was thinking about how to continue to obtain greater benefits from the players, a short and crisp call interrupted his thoughts.

"It's time to rest." Miss Wei Na sat cross-legged in the void a little away from the man, pointing out the window and said, "If you don't rest, it will be dawn soon."

Linton turned his head to look at the girl, and at the moment when his eyes met, Miss Witch was blinking her eyes coquettishly.

"What are you looking at, go and rest!"

Linton also blinked: "Teacher, is it really okay for you to be so far away from me?"

Miss Witch was slightly taken aback, as if remembering something.

But before she could react, there was a sudden sound of wind in her head.

"oops!"

Wei Na covered her head and raised her head resentfully.

Due to the long period of disrepair, the decoration of this castle has actually begun to decay. It is not uncommon for lumps to fall from the ceiling, but it is a coincidence that this is Miss Witch's No. 20 seven times, the third time tonight was aimed and smashed.

Of course, although there were many times, relying on the witch's reaction, she had almost never been hit before this time. Only when her little apprentice attracted her attention this time did she get a rare hit.

Linton suppressed a smile and waved: "Come here, teacher."

Miss Witch curled her lips, and seemed to be reluctant to float towards the man's position.

Miss Witch knew why she was being targeted, and so did Linton—it was a side effect of [Witch's Kiss].

The effect of [Witch's Kiss] is simple and clear, it is simply to increase luck, but while providing buffs to the buffed, the witch as the caster needs to bear the negative impact of the effect.

The gain is to increase luck, and the debuff is to reduce luck.

Therefore, starting from that blush and heartbeat kiss, Miss Witch will be at a disadvantage in all battlefields that require luck. Only by staying by Linton's side can she barely neutralize the bad luck.

However, no matter what Miss Witch's real age is and how rich her knowledge reserves are, her understanding of interpersonal relationships is still in her teenage years.

And since she is a young girl, she will also be shy.

But fortunately, after returning, Linton was obsessed with trivial matters. After a long time, the atmosphere between the two returned to the original state, right?
──No wonder!
As the distance between the two gradually approached, Miss Witch's little heart beat faster and faster, and the noise became louder and louder, so loud that she wished she could strangle the running deer to death.

Help help help help!

Sure enough, it was still calmed down by a method! !
"I, I, I, I will go back to rest first." Wei Na hurriedly left a sentence, and was about to turn into a streamer and escape into the ring, but unfortunately, before that, a strong and powerful hand grabbed her first. she.

"What's the hurry, teacher, it's still early." Linton said solemnly, "You can chat with me for a while, and treat it as a relaxation after busy work, okay?"

Chat, talk about a ghost! !

Miss Witch growled in her heart, but she was her own apprentice, so she had no choice but to agree.

"Okay, okay, what do you want to talk about?"

It has to be said that Miss Witch will definitely be sought after by a large number of people in a banquet.

Because such a walking topic stopper is really useful for those who want to get away from boring banquets and do what they like to do.

Fortunately, this is not a banquet, and the other party is not in a hurry to get out.

Linton said: "What to talk about. Actually, I haven't thought about it."

Miss Witch's beautiful eyebrows slightly raised, and just about to speak, the man immediately answered the next sentence.

"However, if the object is you, even just asking each other some small and unnutritious questions like this is enough to make me feel relaxed and at ease."

"."

Miss Witch opened her mouth, her eyebrows and eyes raised, and she subconsciously stroked her smooth hair with her palms, covering up the slight blush that quietly rose on her cheeks.

Taking a deep breath, Wei Na gave him a blank look: "Slick tongue."

Linton just squinted and smiled.

Just when he was about to say something, there was a knock on the door.

"Sir, may I come in."
