Chapter 137: Dangerous Heterodoxy Bureau

Tang Er fights looming over Bai Liu in a haze of nicotine smoke.

"But you actually did just make an honest living as an employee of a game at a regular company for years, and got laid off because of your boss's bias."

Tang Er didn't hold back a laugh as he hit on this, "I was wondering if I was mistaken when I found out about all this, if there really was originally an ordinary person named Bai Liu in this timeline, and the real Bai Liu had already died by inexplicably devouring his own game coins."

"Maybe Bai Liu from this timeline was unlucky and died in the game before he could grow into a scary trader, so the game let him die like this in this so-called real world like this, who knows?"

Tang Er shakes off the ashes of his cigarette, "But I soon learned I was wrong."

"Because I appeared in the game right?" Bai Liu watched Tang Er fight, "You relied on my skills to identify me?"

"Yes." Tang Er hit bites the mouthpiece of his cigarette, "That personal skill of yours of acquiring souls, I wouldn't recognize it even if I turned into ashes, that's how you gathered a bunch of psychopaths just like you, and several times it almost directly wiped out our base."

"A bunch of psychos like me?" Bai Liu asked rhetorically, sardonically.

Tang Er shot him a look, "I've wondered in every timeline how you have the ability to find so many people who share your exceptional talent and abnormal mental state in one area or another, to form that so-called wandering circus of yours."

"And only in this timeline." Tang Er hit the tabletop and tapped it with his index finger, he raised his eyes to Bai Liu , "It was only then that I first saw this [Wandering Circus] of yours take shape."

"In other timelines, you were already very powerful when I met you, and your origins are something I've dug up by risking my life in dozens of timelines, and that's all I've found out about the private orphanage you lived in, and I have no personal information at all about the rabid dogs that surrounded you."

Tang Er hit his eyes narrowed: "One is because although these mad dogs under your hand act wildly, they are very cautious, it is difficult to trace the real identity behind them, and the second is because you have protected them too well, before this timeline, the base only knows their titles and habits, the rest can't be found at all, and once they are found, our side will be in trouble. Something will happen to our side."

He leaned back on the couch and lazily wiggled his fingers to count, "You should have seen all of these people before, the monkey thieves who help you steal all sorts of secrets, the little killer witches who like to kill men with poisons."

"The only person we can identify and have some relationship with you is Mu Ke, the inland investor who inherited his father's business of helping you promote evil things, but Mu Ke is particularly slippery, hiding in a sanatorium three hundred and fifty-six days a year with the excuse that he's trying to recuperate from a heart attack, and when we ask him a few more questions, he'll start covering his heart and pretending to be sick and vomiting blood, and the doctors will start kicking people out. "

"But now I know who they are." Tang Er hit the hand that held his cigarette on the desktop, the ashes drifting to the ground as he leaned in close to Bai Liu, his tone low, "And then I realized that they weren't naturally mad dogs, they just had some mental gaps."

"You're the only one who was born crazy, Bai Liu, and you caught the gaps and hand-tamed them into mad dogs under you, so that they'll bite anyone they see but you."

"Is that so?" Bai Liu hit at Tang Er without a ripple, "And do you think I've managed to tame them now? Do you think they'll bite you to death because you captured me, Captain Tang?"

Tang Er hit narrowed his narrow, ghostly blue eyes, then pressed the still-burning cigarette butt caught in his own fingertips on Bai Liu's white neck.

"With a hiss, the cigarette went out, leaving a burn wound above Bai Liu's collarbone, which made Bai Liu's breath catch slightly, but such a close distance also succeeded in letting Bai Liu see a hideous scar on his collarbone in the lapel of Tang Er's casually opened shirt. --like a scar that had been scratched by some fierce beast, with traces of corrosion on it.

Kind of like the scars left by the combination of Mu Sicheng's Monkey Paw and Liu Jiayi's Poison - and the scars that are brought out of the game also need to be at a very low Spirit level, with the will of the person being attacked wavering, in order to leave the scars.

-- Mu Ke, the spirit-reducing dagger.

"How do you know I haven't been bitten to death?" Tang Er buttoned up his lapel to cover that wound as he whispered in Bai Liu's ear with a chilling laugh, "I have killed you and you have killed me, Bai Liu."

"But unfortunately none of us made it to death." Tang Er hits Bai Liu's ear and exhales a mouthful of smoke, he laughs nervously low at Bai Liu's choking cough, "We were all brought back to life."

--------

Tang Er came out of the room and Su Yang greeted him, "How is it? Did he say how to solve this Rose Wa Si?"

"Not yet, he won't talk that easily." Tang Er hit with his cigarette butt in his mouth, a little hung over, "It's going to take a while to wear him down, keep an eye on him."

"Grinding for a while, how long is this while?" Su Yang frowned, "Team Tang, are you sure he can fix this?"

Tang Er hit the cigarette butt and threw it into the garbage can very accurately, he swept a glance at Su Yang.

None of these people knew what his ability was, or why he could predict where many heretical things would appear, including Tang Er hitting that conversation he just had with Bai Liu inside the house, and this group of people, even if they were guarding the front of the surveillance, probably couldn't understand what they were exchanging.

Because such conversations and abilities that would give away the existence of the system and the game are blocked when Tang Er plays such gamers say them.

It's a limitation of the game for the player, Tang Er fight can only communicate these things with players like Bai Liu, on top of that Tang Er fight is a timeline traveler, every timeline other people or things will change slightly, personality-wise, family-wise, relationship-wise.

Only Bai Liu is unchanging, always evil, always greedy, steady and unchanging like an anchor that will not let Tang Er hit this sailor lost in the flood of time, and never startled by his time-traveling arguments, but just calmly, with a sardonic smile examining him, as if to say, "So the other me is so much fun too! .

The world is a game in this guy's eyes.

And Tang Er fight is one of the players in the game who keeps reading the file and starting over in an unwilling attempt to beat the perfect ending.

It's ironic that Bai Liu, the odd anchor, is the only person Tang Er has ever played who can just talk about anything.

The others, the coworkers Tang Er fought, his friends, and Su Yang, he'd lost them all an unknown number of times, because the reunions were so painful he couldn't even touch them easily anymore.

Because he's a player, he can't touch anyone, which would bring them into the game - a truth Tang Er hit understand after countless rounds.

A special department like the Dangerous Heresy Handling Bureau that fought against evil had always been a place that could easily breed gamers, and there were far more gamers than just Tang Er Fight in the base.

But these player-team members who know all about where the evil things come from can't tell some other team members who aren't gamers because of the limitations of the game, you're not fighting something that has no where to come from, you're fighting a product of a game that never has an end to these things, so run away.

When a team member dies in the game, the team members who are not gamers watch these these team members who died in the game die miserably in reality in various bizarre postures after logging out of the game, and these normal team members' despair and scorn for these evil creatures grows deeper and deeper, and they are influenced by those team members who are also gamers, which creates a drastic desire to survive to crash into the game.

In the other timeline Tang Er fights in, by late in the game, most of the team members in the Heretic Handling Bureau had become gamers and then died in the game one by one - including Su Yang in front of him.

Tang Er struck his gaze outwardly, longingly, through a lot of smoke and death and unseen time, and slowly fell on Su Yang's face as she frowned and questioned him.

Su Yang died trying to save him, in the semi-final match of the league.

The members of the Heresy Disposal Bureau who entered the game meet up in the game, and all of them fight to the death to prevent the others from proceeding to enter the game, wanting to proceed to fulfill their duties in the game - to protect the precarious, not-knowing-what's-real, real world, and to protect their teammates, loved ones, and friends in the real world.

But it's like there is a big invisible hand pushing all this in a place they don't even know, they have been living like street rats in the sewer, not daring to meet their loved ones, not daring to talk to their friends, not daring to kiss their lovers, but just standing far away from the shadows where they can't be discovered and looking at all these things they are guarding from afar, for fear that the identity of the gamer will affect the people they hold dear, and will involve them in the bad game where they don't know when the end will come. know when the end is near.

Tang Er hit just entered the game, even dare not go out to buy food and cigarettes, order takeout let people put outside the door, put an hour or two before going to pick up, sitting alone in a room full of cigarette butts and beer, waiting for the next seven days, nine deaths to survive, and then live for seven days, living quite like a self-management consciousness not to go out to infect others with the virus.

But sometimes, no matter how careful you are, the people you cherish will inevitably move into a future you don't want because of you.

Su Yang came to call Tang Er, who was locked up at home and had not been working or communicating with anyone.

Tang Er Ta started to run around and hide from Su Yang, he changed hostels and logout coordinates, but Su Yang just kept on chasing him, looking for him one place at a time. Tang Er Ta had the game as a cheat to run around, but Su Yang didn't, and realizing that all those tactics could be dodged by Tang Er Ta, Su Yang began to Su Yang started to find Tang Er Ta in a stupid way, a dead end way.

Finally, this Deputy Captain Su just held up a picture of Tang Er fighting one by one on the street, asking if you have seen my captain.

Tang Er hit stood in the alleyway not far from Su Yang, lighting a cigarette without smoking, and waited until Su Yang went away and the cigarette burned his hand before he came out.

But in the end, Tang Er fights to see Su Yang in the game.

Tang Er hit in the game at the moment he met Su Yang, the vice captain, who is much younger than now, smiled with an arched eyebrow and did not seem to be afraid at all, saying captain, I finally found you.
