Reborn NPC: I'm really not the protagonist!
Chapter 53 Haze
The Chosen One....This is a bit difficult...
Looking at the woman who was suddenly stunned, Hill frowned slightly, feeling a little distressed.
If the Chosen One was not involved, she could resolve the issue by any means.
but....
The Chosen One....She has been avoiding this question.
The conflict between the Chosen One and the NPC!
She knew the terrifying nature of the players better than anyone else. This group of players with infinite vitality was power, interest, and Pandora's box.
She always had a sense of belonging to the player community, but now she has to face this problem: if the person who kills someone is a player, what choice should she make?
If possible, Hill definitely didn't want to provoke even one player! Not even a level one player!
But... then again, no one other than her is more suitable to deal with the matter of the Chosen One killing the natives. Maybe Alice saw this and called her over urgently...
Fortunately, the woman in front of him was obviously not the murderer.
And...looking at those panicked and shocked eyes, Hill felt a little funny.
How much drama is this...
There is no shortage of this type of players in "Sanctuary". They treat NPCs as real people and experience the world from their own perspective.
The person in front of me looks like this type of person...
No, maybe it should be more involved. It was like she was playing a virtual game for the first time. When she saw Edward dying, she wanted to help him without hesitation out of kindness....
In the past, Hill didn't understand this kind of people, but now, as an NPC, she suddenly understood that players who play the game too much and become numbed by knives will always lose something important, such as kindness.
At this moment, Hill was even a little angry for the woman in front of him.
The players around had numb eyes and raised lips. They were here to have fun...
But... we can't blame these people. Who doesn't play games for fun?
Thinking of this, Hill sighed helplessly, squatted down, looked at the woman at eye level, and then slowly spoke: "Do you know who killed him? Have you seen the murderer?"
"I..." The woman stared at Hill's face approaching her, her lips seemed to tremble a little. After saying "I" for a long time, she suddenly stretched out her hand and wanted to touch Hill's face.
"what are you doing?"
Hilton stepped back and stood up, and even Alice couldn't help but widen her eyes.
"I don't know her." Hill stood up and subconsciously turned to look at Alice.
"......." Alice was stunned, her pretty face turned red, she rolled her eyes unhappily and turned her head away: "What are you explaining?"
"Pfft~"
"Hahaha, it's still Xibao's charm..."
The players who were watching suddenly burst into laughter, and a large number of gamers felt extremely satisfied. Of course, the nuns were particularly serious this time.
Hill touched his nose and looked at the Chosen One again.
It seemed that she was frightened. In her previous life, she had seen news about many female players being frightened by certain plots in "The Sanctuary". After all, "The Sanctuary" was a truly epoch-making product, completely different from those virtual games that had been released before. It made many players at a loss as to where to start, and they couldn't even distinguish between the game and reality.
This phenomenon once pushed "The Temple" to the forefront of public opinion. In fact... since the launch of "The Temple", it seems that it has never left the forefront of public opinion...
"Rhodes, Sister Lilylan, please take her to the church first." She thought for a moment, then turned around and said, "Let this chosen one rest for a while."
"Is it okay?" she said, and looked at the woman again.
"............" The woman was still in a daze, her eyes fixed on Hill, never moving away. After a long while, she nodded stupidly.
After getting permission, Rhodes and Lilylan walked over Hill, helped the woman up and led her out of the cabin.
For a moment, there were only a few figures left in the hut...
"So...."
After watching the two men send the woman away, Hill thought for a moment and did not close the door. Instead, he slowly turned his head to watch Edward, whose body had already turned cold, in front of the crowd of players watching the show: "Who killed you?"
As she called out, a translucent figure slowly sat up from Edward's body.
Hill frowned slightly, stopped Alice who wanted to step forward to ask, and looked indifferently at Edward's lifeless soul.
She couldn't help but feel fortunate that she had not forgotten the two effects lying quietly on her status bar: Weird Blessing, Xiaoyu's Favor!
The former allows her to hear the voice of the soul, while the latter allows her to see the soul directly!
There are so many souls wandering in this world, especially after the players arrive, they can almost fill up everywhere!
After all, there are players everywhere who died suddenly and want to return to the resurrection point, so some time ago, Hill blocked these two statuses...
"I... am dead...?"
Edward's soulless voice floated faintly, as if asking, yet incredulous. He looked at Hill in confusion and tilted his head slowly: "Hill...?"
"It's me," Hill nodded, his eyes sharp, "Tell me who killed you."
"No...I don't know...I don't know...who he is..." Edward recalled and pondered for a long time, shaking his head dully.
"Do you know him?" Hill asked again: "Is he someone from the town? A stranger? Or...the Chosen One?"
"I don't know... I don't know..." Edward still murmured and shook his head. Suddenly, he raised his head and covered his head: "I don't know who he is... I don't know... Hill... Please help me... tell Eve..."
Eve is Edward's daughter who lives far away in the capital.
Hill listened attentively, but Edward's figure had already slowly disappeared, and he didn't even have time to say his last words...
“........” Hill raised his eyebrows slightly, looking embarrassed.
What did she want her to tell Eve? She should finish her words before leaving!
However, this question may never have an answer.
But....at least Hill got some answers....
If the murderer was a native of the town, Edward must have known him, as the town was not very big.
Then there are only two possibilities left, either it's a killer who sneaked into the town, or... it's a player!
She suddenly raised her head and sighed deeply. Things seemed to be heading in the direction she least wanted to see...
