This time I chose Paladin.

Chapter 10 Administrator No.

When Xiang Feng turned around, Nie Weiyang was indeed standing behind him.

The young man had a calm expression and a reassuring gentle smile on his face. Even Xiang Feng felt that he exuded a reassuring and reliable aura.

But that strange white streak in the black hair, and those blood-red eyes...

Xiang Feng had seen people with red eyes during the night, but theirs were either as red as crystal or as red as gemstones. Besides Nie Weiyang, he didn't know anyone else with eyes like this, reminiscent of shimmering cinnabar, ink, blood, or a crimson sunset.

When Xiang Feng saw those eyes, his pupils slightly dilated. A sense of tension arose, and he moved his fingers.

But he quickly adjusted himself, shifted his gaze, and released the dagger in his hand.

He didn't mention the change in Nie Weiyang's appearance, nor did he even ask why Nie Weiyang knew so much information. He just pondered for a moment and asked, "What did you just say..."

"That's how this town came about," said Nie Weiyang.

He walked past Xiang Feng and looked around. They were now in the center of the town, and the noisy voices of more than 50,000 people echoed throughout the town.

Xiang Feng followed Nie Weiyang's gaze. The keen hearing brought by their alien blood allowed them to hear those sounds, but the sounds heard by Nie Weiyang were clearer - vampires were hunting creatures after all, and keen perception in all senses was a basic requirement.

Some were panicking, some were questioning, some were talking, some were crying, some were excited about otherworldly powers, some were very panicked because they had never played games before, some were suffering from splitting headaches because of their overly sharp senses, some were too old and not agile enough after being transformed and therefore felt they were doomed...

Nie Weiyang even heard some people quarreling with each other, conducting one-on-one censuses on each other through virtual household registration books.

He calculated in his mind that at this time in his previous life, there were indeed a few people causing trouble. The confused students suddenly gained power beyond the original social structure and thought they had the ability to make others do what they wanted.

There are all kinds of living beings.

"Through some means that I can't tell you, I knew some things in advance, but I can't say too much..." Nie Weiyang said.

He stroked the 'Pearl Tear Knot' in his hand. It felt quite good, but he hadn't used it to check the rewards yet.

The first boss kill in "New World" was announced... but this time, it was delayed.

Didn't you imagine that someone could defeat a boss right at the beginning of the 'game'?

"Believe me, this is for your own good." Nie Weiyang added, "In this world, information is not safe for ordinary people, especially knowledge and intelligence related to the supernatural."

Xiang Feng frowned, his thoughts were complicated, but he could only trust Nie Weiyang temporarily.

This man said the apocalypse was coming, and it happened. He said there would be an aurora, and it arrived. He said everyone would be transported to another world, transformed into hybrids of different races, and forced to play a game with one life. Now, with a pair of horns and a sullen face, he's volunteering to work overtime in a completely unfamiliar town.

"Can we still return to Earth?" Xiang Feng asked.

"I don't know," Nie Weiyang replied, "at least... not within the next twenty years."

Xiang Feng’s eyes went dark.

Twenty years, a generation!

And we can’t be sure whether we can go back in twenty years!

"...Can you keep this information confidential?" he asked immediately.

This information must not be known to too many people... otherwise someone will definitely take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble!

Nie Weiyang spread his hands without comment. He didn't want to tell too many people about this.

This is a war, and people are already involved in it, but they have not yet entered the front line. It is unforgivable to shake the morale of the army.

In his previous life, Xiang Feng didn't know if he could return, but he still fought to the bitter end as a soldier. Back then, Nie Weiyang was just an ordinary person, even subject to strict control due to his vampire bloodlust, requiring daily registration and inspections. During those days, that young man in his twenties, a clear-eyed college graduate, only glanced at Xiang Feng from afar a few times. The last time he saw him was when Xiang Feng was shot in the head and collapsed to the ground.

Nie Weiyang actually didn’t know who the traitor in this town was, but he was very sure that no one of the things that appeared under the red moonlight, whether it was a demon, a zombie, or those bosses, would use a gun!
“Oh, right,” Xiang Feng suddenly remembered something, “here… I mean, the radio environment in the New World is very clean, but there are strange sources of interference that cause radio waves to be unable to be transmitted or received. Do you know what’s going on?” “Yes,” Nie Weiyang replied.

Xiang Feng waited for two seconds but nothing came of it: "...Can't tell?"

Nie Weiyang nodded.

Xiang Feng sighed deeply: "Is there anything I can say?"

Nie Weiyang searched his mind for a few times and realized that 99% of the information could not be revealed, or could not be revealed now. Finally, he replied, "Don't go near the river casually."

"The river is dangerous?"

"It's very dangerous." Nie Weiyang replied.

Xiang Feng pondered for a moment and asked cautiously, "Excuse me...what would happen if we revealed the information that cannot be revealed?"

Nie Weiyang, who hadn't looked at him, turned around with a strange smile on his face: "You want to know?"

In fact, Xiang Feng was skeptical, but his suspicion was reasonable. Nie Weiyang knew that if it were him, he would not believe what a stranger said without any evidence.

So, he approached Xiang Feng, lowered his voice, and whispered softly, "Actually, our location..."

Xiang Feng had originally pricked up his ears to listen, but after these words came out, his expression suddenly changed.

A terrifying, mind-blowing feeling burst out from the bottom of his heart. For a moment, Xiang Feng's vision began to darken. He seemed to see a kind of empty darkness and destruction spreading in front of him. When he thought about it, his thoughts collapsed.

He lost his vision and hearing, and a pitch-black color surged from his pupils, covering his irises and sclera in an instant, then gradually faded away...

Nie Weiyang didn't continue speaking. He knew what Xiang Feng was going through, and this was a warning.

In the new world, every piece of knowledge has its own learning standards, among which there must be "spiritual" attribute requirements.

If other values ​​fall short, one can still force oneself to acquire knowledge through some means, or use mental attributes to compensate. However, if one's mental attributes fall short, there's no other solution. When such a person encounters "knowledge" that exceeds their tolerance threshold, they will experience a period of sensory loss and forget what they "learned."

This is a built-in preset of the modified biological organism and serves as a form of internal protection.

Nie Weiyang stood up and waited patiently for Xiang Feng to come back to his senses.

At the same time, above his vision, a gorgeous golden banner unfolded, and several bright fireworks rose on both sides:

[Huaxia-Zhongzhou region leader unit [Seven Emotions·Sorrow] has died and entered the trigger cooldown period.]

[Seven Emotions: Sorrow] First kill: Player [Nie Weiyang] (100%). Rewarded titles: [The Only Blade of the Rebel], [Sorrowful Absoluteness], [Battlefield Ruler]. The "Leader-level Hostile Target File" has been updated. All players are requested to review the target information and [claim the reward].

According to the system introduction, the player who kills the BOSS for the first time is called the Blade of the Upward Beast, and the player who kills the Seven Emotions of Sorrow is called the Aid of the Dead - this is the title of this series, and when a player gets 100% contribution in a BOSS battle, he will be called the Ruler of the Battlefield.

The noise from all directions suddenly increased. Everyone was browsing this information, discussing who this person was. Some people even muttered, "Wow, he has the same name as Xiao Nie..." - and Xiang Feng, who finally came to his senses, slowly distorted his expression, and couldn't help showing a hint of shock. He looked up and down at Nie Weiyang as if he was looking at a god or ghost.

Nie Weiyang wore a genuinely happy smile. "Every time a boss is first killed, players worldwide receive a fair, modest reward, mostly stat points and some basic survival supplies. This is a good thing, both for humanity as a whole and for the vast majority of Chinese players."

He likes the feeling of being able to fight and get some food for everyone at the same time.

But after this announcement, another announcement followed:

[World Hazard: Leader-Level Hostile Target [Administrator No. 2] has arrived. Initial landing location: Zhongzhou, China. This target is highly dangerous and its actions are covert. Currently, there is no information in the "Leader-Level Hostile Target File."]

Nie Weiyang: “.”

Nie Weiyang: “?”
