Purgatory Artist

Vol 2 Chapter 49: A stand-in for the gods

   Two mechanical fingers gently clamped Liuping's ID card.

   "Well, night watchman Liu Ping, now is the time for you to make a choice." S0005 robot said.

   "What choice?" Liu Ping asked.

   The robot said: "You are the only living person, now please make a choice, whether to report the news to the company, or to give up here and immediately flee to the wilderness."

It further explained: "If you escape, I will mark your ID card with the "escape" mark and pass it on to the company; if you stay, then you will report the situation to the company, and you will have to do it yourself. Carry."

   "Let me report, there is no point in running away." Liuping said.

   "Well said, that's what men want, full of discipline and hard-line style." The robot said.

   It raised its arm and pressed a button.

   Surrounding the extension of the town, a steel city wall several meters wide rises slowly.

   Liuping looked at the steel wall.

   "Rising the city wall during the day?" he asked.

   "This is an automatic battle wall, which can guard against wild beasts and wild mobs during the day-better than nothing, after all, no one is defending the city." The robot said.

"what's next?"

   "We quickly pass the information back to the company." The robot said.

"How to do?"

   "It's very simple."

   The robot squatted down, slowly changed its shape, and turned into a phone booth again.

   "A connection request has been issued to the company. When the bell rings, you will connect to the phone and think of your own information in your mind." The phone booth made a sound.

   "Just think about it once?" Liu Ping asked.

   "Yes, I am responsible for transforming the information you want into images and passing them to the company."

   Liuping fell into a deep thought.

   "What's wrong?" the robot asked.

   "It's okay, let's start." Liuping said.

"it is good."

   waited a few minutes.

   Suddenly, a ringing rang in the phone booth.

   Liuping walked in, connected the phone, and put the receiver to his ear.

   "Start." The robot's voice sounded.

   Liuping closed his eyes and directly recalled the scenes he saw last night—

   The outer world collapsed and fell towards the spiritual world.

   Dark Mist Town was destroyed.

   The terrifying monster appeared.

   and helplessly dodge.

Thinking in another way, as the manager above, maybe he doesn’t care about how a border town was destroyed. Even if the cause is found out, it will not necessarily violate the existing rules and become a little-known night watchman. show mercy.

   Killing oneself is also a management tool for managers.

but-

   If this night watchman discovers such an important thing as the collapse of the outer sky—

   This kind of thing is definitely accompanied by a huge opportunity!

   Managers may be tempted.

  —This is my way to survive!

   Besides, the guy named Luo Sheng has already said that no one knows what happened here!

   Liuping recalled the scene after the selection, and slowly opened his eyes.

   "I have finished thinking about it." He said to the phone booth

   "Then, we only have to wait." The robot's nervous voice sounded.

   Time slowly passed.

   The sun rose a few inches and slowly moved closer to the middle of the sky.

   It’s getting closer and closer to noon...

   Liu Ping was staring at the sight outside the glass window, and suddenly a sound came from his ear.

   There was a pleasant female voice in the earpiece:

   "Apprentice Night Watchman Liu Ping, please stay where you are. We are capturing your coordinates. You will be sent back to the company in ten seconds."

   Liuping opened his eyes wide.

   Without resorting to any magic circle or external force, just teleport yourself back directly like this?

   It seems that the importance of this incident has even exceeded my imagination.

   Ten seconds passed quickly.

   Suddenly, there were sharp bursts of sound in the depths of the sky.

   Something seems to be flying towards the phone booth.

   The next moment.

   The sky is spinning around.

   Before Liuping could feel anything, he realized that everything around him had changed.

  The dark, wilderness, and ruined towns all disappeared completely, but there was a different sight in front of them.

   The buildings made of metal soar into the sky, like a forest of steel.

   The surfaces of these buildings have neatly opened openings, covered with glass, forming windows, proving that they are the products of human civilization.

  Various technology-side aircraft staggered back and forth in the sky.

   And Liuping stood in the phone booth and appeared on the terrace of a tall building.

   In front of the terrace, a woman in a black dress came up, reached out and opened the phone booth, and smiled at Liu Ping:

   "You are so young, but it is almost noon, and the night will fall soon. We will talk about you in a moment. What matters now is, are the pictures you just thought and thought are true?"

   Liuping looked at the woman in the black dress.

   I saw a line of small words appearing above her head:

   "God's substitute, canonized the Holy Land."

   "Effect: Gods will descend on this body at any time, things that happen to people."

  —She is a stand-in for the goddess of pain!

   Liuping looked unchanged, nodded and said: "I personally experienced it."

   The woman looked down at the book in her hand.

   Two lines of small characters quickly appeared on the book:

   "The polygraph passed."

   "He is telling the truth."

   The woman smiled.

   At this time, the sky quickly dimmed.

   The whole world turned into darkness in an instant.

   However, the dense metal buildings gradually lit up with bright lights, illuminating the night sky and turning the earth into a city that never sleeps.

   Liuping had never seen such a scene before, and couldn't help but glance at it.

   "Excuse me—it's obviously noon, why has night fallen?" he asked.

   "The lady is attacking our world because of torture." The woman said.

   The woman looked at Liu Ping, her heart was clear.

  —This is a teenager.

   From the identification card, he grew up in the wilderness and is a scavenger.

   There are too many refugees in the wilderness, but few can become scavengers.

   Refugees would rather fight each other for a piece of bread than have the guts to go to the world of death.

   Even the refugees know—

   In the world of death, being eaten by a monster of death is a good ending.

   And this young man not only became a scavenger, but also gained the identity of Dark Mist Town—although he was just a night watchman in a border town.

   This has proved that he is a talent with great potential.

   Besides, he survived.

   He also provided such valuable information...

  According to the feedback from the 320 monitoring methods hidden in the surroundings just now, the boy was only 19 years old, and the genetic map reflected by various physical characteristics and biological waves showed an extremely beautiful shape.

   I am afraid that such a person will only appear in the wilderness for hundreds of years.

  —Maybe there have been a lot of them, but they died before they grew up.

   Sometimes luck means everything.

   Such talents should only belong to the company and give everything to the company.

certainly.

   There must be a little investment before this.

   The woman showed a cordial smile and said, "Liu Ping, what do you think is your greatest strength?"

   Liuping was startled, but he didn't even react for a while.

   He was asked.

  In the world of spiritual practice, no one has ever asked him that way.

  Master only teaches and hardly evaluates.

   and the others—

   Others just admired.

   This question aroused Liuping's interest.

   He thought about it carefully, and replied: "I like to create something that I have never had before. Is that an advantage?"

Ms.    looked at the book in her hand and saw a line of words appearing on the pages of the book:

   "He is talking about the heartfelt voice."

Ms.    smiled, and didn't care too much.

   "Of course, creation is indeed an interesting thing." She responded.

   Creativity is priceless—especially in this era.

   But creation needs to be based on knowledge.

  In order to live, to live better, to gain status, to be stronger, everyone is eager for knowledge.

   But only at a certain level can you be qualified to acquire the corresponding knowledge.

   or should not be explained by knowledge, but should be replaced by another word—

secret.

   The young man in front of him is the epitome of an entire era, representing the human desire for knowledge and secrets.

Ms.    thought so, and took it for granted.

so-

   I am afraid it will take a long time for this lady to understand what kind of horror is implied by Liu Ping's "like to create something that I have never had before".

   The two walked straight along the metal steps. A robot blocked the way. The woman handed the book in her hand to the robot, and the robot left.

   "That is the book of truth, specially used to test lies-no one can lie in front of it." The woman found Liu Ping's curious gaze and explained.

   "I never knew there was such a thing, is it your ability?" Liu Ping asked.

   "No, it's company property, and I don't want to touch it at all." The woman said.

"Why?"

   "The world is full of lies. Everyone at UU reading www.uukanshu.com has too many ulterior secrets. If I walk around the company for a day with it, I will never survive the next day when the sun rises."

   The woman clapped her hands and said, "I don't seem to have officially introduced myself yet. I am the head of the company's C area, Wang Wei."

   "What do you care about?" Liu Ping asked with interest.

"I am responsible for the exploration and development of the first three acts of the practice world. There is an admission position for the first act near the Dark Mist Town. Generally speaking, there is no danger when entering the field. Those practitioners do not have much potential, unless The practitioners in the next few scenes unexpectedly appeared."

   "So my attention has never been there. I didn't expect such a big opportunity this time. I'm afraid it's beyond everyone's expectations..."

   She babbled, but Liu Ping was completely stunned.

   She is actually in charge of exploring and developing the world of spiritual practice.

  In the eyes of these people in the world, the world of practice is just a resource?

  Wang Wei found Liu Ping standing on the spot, and when she looked back, it was instantly clear.

She laughed and said: "Those people are dead long ago, or the dead will never die. They repeat the same story countless times as if they were acting in accordance with their established destiny-but they are in the world of death. , So it is full of danger."

   Liuping followed her pace and asked softly: "I really can't understand why the dead are restless, but they have to repeat what they are doing."

"Believe me, everyone is the same, we can't understand how it is formed-but in order to fight against the world of death, we must obtain all valuable things from it to arm ourselves, such as weapons, Taoist tactics, treasures, secrets, and even people. ."

   "This is the opportunity that the goddess of pain has given us, child."
