From doomsday survival to fast-forward daily life

Old Lu just looked old. Tian Yu always thought he was in his forties, but he didn't expect that he was only eight years older than himself.

Tian Yu was somewhat surprised that he would take the initiative to form an alliance after meeting a strange player, but thinking from another perspective, this seemed quite normal.

Just from the brief time he spent with this man in his own world, Tian Yu felt that he was like his father's colleagues, majestic but also humane, not to mention that he was a real policeman.

More importantly, Tian Yu felt that this was related to the fact that he was still a new player. In this endless dungeon game, only newcomers still had expectations for human nature. Most of the old players that Tian Yu had met had some degree of distortion.

"Why did Brother Lu think of boxing?" Tian Yu suddenly asked.

Old Lu curled his lips and said, "Do you know where I started from?"

"On the ring?" Tian Yu was somewhat curious about the experiences of other players.

"That's about the same." Old Lu still felt a little nervous when he mentioned this.

"I appeared out of nowhere in that fighting arena. It was crowded with people and I was wearing only a linen shirt, so I didn't arouse any suspicion."

"Immediately afterwards, I heard a scream." Lao Lu recalled the scene at that time.

"I was still a little panicked, so I leaned forward to take a look."

"The crowd started to riot, and I saw a man lying on the ground," Lao Lu began to smile bitterly, "He looked exactly like me."

The same thing happened to Lao Lu? Tian Yu felt it was strange. Could it be that in every instance, someone like the player died?

"I was quick-witted at the time, I rushed over and started crying, then I carried the man on my back and walked out."

Lao Lu's experience when he first arrived in this world was much more thrilling than Tian Yu's. The fact that he was unfamiliar with the place and couldn't speak was enough to make most people lose their composure.

Tian Yu pondered for a moment: "I think this is a bit weird. Logically, players should compete for spots when entering a dungeon. Could it be that the moment a spot is confirmed, the world begins to evolve, and then someone like the player dies?"

"It's a bit too light," she said.

In Silvermoon City, the system has to give some face to the God of Light there, but how come when it comes to Immortal Pointing the Way, anyone can die at will?

Or is this the rule of this world, that only one of the player and the person with the same face can survive?

Where do so many people like the players come from here?

After listening to Tian Yu's abridged version of his experience, Lao Lu also realized that something was wrong with this copy: "From what I've observed, each world has its own rules, and the system cannot be changed."

The death of a man like Lao Lu in the fighting arena left him with lingering fears. After taking the man away, he searched the body but found no other valuable clues except his pass, the forest python mask hidden inside his clothes, and some money.

Later he settled down and learned the language.

As for going to the fighting arena, it was entirely because he wanted to investigate the cause of that person's death and find a breakthrough.

Tian Yu had to admit that Lao Lu was indeed very brave. If it were him, he probably wouldn't appear in the fighting arena again wearing a mask in such a high-profile manner.

At the same time, Lao Lu also said that except for Tian Yu who came to him today because he felt something was wrong with him, he had not encountered any other accidents or players.

"On the way back, I was still thinking that it's time to move." Lao Lu's language skills are much better than Tian Yu's, and his understanding of the world is also deeper.

The full name of this continent is Xihongzhou, and the country they are in occupies the edge of all the deserts here. Its full name is Sand Country. Linsha City is just a medium-sized city here. Going further inland is the capital of Sand Country, Sand City.

Lao Lu's original plan was to try his luck there after saving enough money to see if he could get some information.

"The birthplace of the person I'm replacing is also there on his ID," he said.

The two exchanged some information, and Lao Lu also invited Tian Yu to go to the City of Sand with him so that he could have someone to take care of him.

Tian Yu refused. She still had some mysteries to solve, so maybe she would have to stay in Linsha City for a few more days.

"Okay." Old Lu thought for a moment and added, "The Alliance Scroll has a sense of touch. Did you know that?"

Tian Yu shook his head: "I didn't even know there was such a prop."

"As long as we get close to each other, the system will give us a prompt to avoid accidental injuries and annihilation." Lao Lu said.

Tian Yu didn't ask where this thing came from. Sometimes it is not a good thing to pry into too many secrets of others. She just wanted to know that if Lao Lu wanted to kill her, she would die too.

"I'll go to the City of Sand first. If you want to go there later, I will take a walk around the city gate there at 6 o'clock in the evening on every Friday." Lao Lu made an agreement with Tian Yu.

In this dangerous game, the alliances recognized by the system are the only trustworthy ones.

Neither of them mind sharing with each other some of the system's unspoken rules that they know about.

"See you again if we're lucky." After saying goodbye to Lao Lu, Tian Yu hid his figure in the darkness and walked towards his residence.

Lao Lu's suggestion to go to the City of Sand together did make Tian Yu a little tempted for a moment, but she did not tell Lao Lu about her experience in the desert, so the other party naturally would not know about Tian Yu's recent discoveries.

Every player wants to find the Immortal, and everyone has their own secret discoveries.

Tian Yu didn't believe that Lao Lu would dare to go to the ring just to investigate the identity of the deceased. The risk was too great.

He was able to survive three copies and discover and resolve his own tracking, so he is definitely not that naive.

Most of the time, people are willing to take risks because they have made discoveries.

Tian Yu also had his own discoveries.

After observing for these days, she found that some people in this world looked strange. Some of them had more prominent teeth, some were taller and thinner, but without exception, they were all slaves.

The appearance of those people reminded Tian Yu of the various races he had seen in the endless battlefield. Those slaves looked like countless diluted versions of their appearance.

After some casual inquiries during this period, she discovered that these people were called "aliens", that is, people with genetic problems. They were sold as slaves almost from the moment they were born.

Today, on one of the fighting arenas, Tian Yu saw the totem of the Sharp Fang Clan on a man's mask. Although it was a bit sloppy and deformed, Tian Yu firmly believed that he was not mistaken.

She wanted to follow the man to find out what was going on, but there were too many people and she quickly lost her target.

Tian Yu suspected that the fighter might also be an alien, or he had seen the pattern on the mask somewhere before. Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain why such an ancient totem would appear today when the alien bloodline has been diluted.

The fighter Forest Python never appeared in the fighting arena of Linsha City again, but there was a new outsider named Tian Yu with a strange accent.
