Global Weird

Chapter 4 The Real Weird World Comes

"Hey, mom, you and dad..."

"Well, okay, that, son, Mom and Dad are very busy and can't come back for a while, but we have hired a doctor for you. Dr. Brandon is a world-class authority in the field of psychology, you..."

"Mom, I'm really not sick... Forget it, anyway, just remember what I said."

in the room.

Li Guanqi sat on the bed, hung up the phone, turned the phone over in his hand, and kept thinking.

His parents have been managing business abroad all year round, and they are both model cases of retired athletes turning into entrepreneurs.

He just called his parents several times in a row, kept talking about things in the weird world, and told them the customs clearance conditions of "The Conjurer's Apprentice".

After all, he doesn't know if there will be his own parents among the one percent of the selected human beings in the world.

I don't even know how fast the simulator said that the strange world will come "soon".

One hour?

one day?
totally no idea.

So I can only tell my parents the normal customs clearance conditions first.

The normal end of customs clearance is naturally to learn spells from the black-robed old man, and then wait for him to die, and then pass the customs.

But because Li Guanqi got the [Tongyou (Purple)] talent at the beginning, the aptitude of the conjurer was too high, which made the black-robed old man unwilling to die again, so he didn't unlock the normal ending.

Three endings.

【Choice of Sand Sculpture】

【Eternal Life and Disciple】

【Master, I will fulfill your long-cherished wish】

None of them are normal endings.

And after unlocking the happy ending, the simulation is turned off.

It's just that from the introduction of the second ending [Eternal Life and Disciple], it can be easily deduced that the normal ending is actually a normal apprenticeship and a normal waiting for the old man in black to die.

Li Guanqi also told his parents about the clearance conditions for this normal ending.

And the result was of course not unexpected.

Even his biological parents thought he was mentally ill, and even called a doctor for him within a few minutes, the efficiency was astonishing...

"Global weird world, open!"

Suddenly, a cold mechanical female voice rang in Li Guanqi's ears, interrupting his thoughts.

Li Guanqi was slightly taken aback.

It turns out that the "soon" that the simulator said will come, it is so fast!
Not even 10 minutes after coming out of the simulator!
"Didi... Insufficient energy... The number of people participating in the world copy has decreased..."

"Randomly screen one percent of the world's population, and immediately participate in the strange world dungeon."

"brush--"

A white light flashed, and Li Guanqi disappeared in place in an instant.

The room was empty, only the light blue curtains were blown by the wind and kept fluttering, and it was raining heavily in the city outside.

……

……

When Li Guanqi regained consciousness again, he felt himself sitting on a chair with his hands tied up.

He didn't open his eyes, because in the dark "angle of view" when he closed his eyes, there was a line of small words floating in the upper right corner that was slightly hidden, and it was easy to ignore if you didn't pay attention:

[Currently, the number of survivors in the strange world: 102620357 (approximately [-] million). 】

Li Guanqi remembered that since last year, the global population has exceeded [-] billion, so [-]% of the candidates are almost [-] million extraordinary people.

"Dong dong dong..."

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps from far to near, accompanied by a "squeak" sound as if it was stepped on a decayed floor.

Soon, Li Guanqi felt someone sitting opposite him.

Immediately afterwards, a hoarse and deep old man's voice sounded:

"Want to be my apprentice?"

That's it.

Li Guanqi lowered his head and smiled lightly, then opened his eyes.

In the darkness, the first thing that caught his eyes was a decayed, cracked table with green mildew stains growing on it.

And what he was wearing at this time was no longer a brand-name sportswear, but a set of gray coarse linen robes.

Li Guanqi raised his head.

Sitting on the opposite side of the table was an extremely thin, short figure covered in a black robe and wearing a hood.

Li Guanqi could only barely distinguish from the faint yellow fire light around him that the person under the hood should be the face of an old man, and the hoarse voice just now presumably also came from this person.

But this man was too small.

The head is big and the body is small, the limbs are very short, and it looks a little deformed.

The height of this black-robed old man is like a child of seven or eight years old. Although he is sitting on a chair, Li Guanqi judges that the height of the other party will not exceed 1.2m.

Dwarfism?
Li Guanqi thought to himself.

According to the situation during the simulation, it is obvious that this guy is the "old man in black robe", so this old man in black robe is actually a dwarf patient.

Nothing to be surprised about, though.

The most important thing is that the "old man in black robe" has no patience.

Li Guanqi directly raised his head, looked at the dwarf in black robe opposite, and said seriously: "Yes, I want to worship you as my teacher!"

"Then choose one."

The empty right hand of the dwarf in black robe brushed the long table covered with mildew, and then two dark brown wooden bowls appeared out of nowhere on the table.

Li Guanqi frowned slightly.

Wooden bowl?

Why a wooden bowl?

This is not the same as the cup in the simulation!
Although this difference seems innocuous, the discrepancy between simulation and reality has sounded the alarm for Li Guanqi.

Simulation is simulation, reality is reality.

It turns out it will be different!

Still need to be careful.

Li Guanqi's eyes were slightly focused, and he could barely see the contents of the two wooden bowls with the help of the faint yellow fire light around him.

In the wooden bowl on the left, there are strips of plump and juicy white maggots writhing in the bowl, as if telling Li Guanqi, I am delicious, come and eat... yue!

Li Guanqi's face was ugly, he suppressed the sour water in his stomach, and forcibly suppressed the desire to vomit.

Dry!
No wonder he throws up while simulating.

Li Guanqi took a deep breath, suppressing his talent for penetrating the secluded, after all he didn't want to listen to the low-level thoughts of maggots.

He turned to look at the wooden bowl on the right.

As in the simulation, the right side is more heavyweight than the left side.

It contained not only black bedbugs, but also many long strips of roundworms, and a large pile of colorful, weird bugs that kept spitting out disgusting slime, and the slime almost soaked the wooden bowl into bug soup.

"Choose a bowl and eat it."

While the black-robed old dwarf was speaking, the rope on Li Guanqi's body fell off automatically and fell to the ground.

But Li Guanqi has "died" many times in the simulator.

Of these two bowls of worms, neither one can be eaten. No matter which bowl you eat, you will be killed by this inappropriate old thing.

and so……

"I won't eat any bowl."

Li Guanqi propped his elbows on the table, crossed his fingers, and put them in front of his mouth, with a solemn expression.

"Oh?"

The black-robed dwarf narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a faint murderous intent.

But Li Guanqi was not afraid.

His expression was still serious, and he said deeply:
"A qualified magician will never eat other people's magic insects."

Li Guanqi has a serious expression on his face, and he looks very serious when he speaks.

He pretended.

If you can't eat it, you can only refuse to eat it.

But the actual situation is the actual situation, not the same as the simulation.

During the simulation, he wasn't personally on the scene, he just had to simply choose [Don't eat], but in reality, he had to do something to explain why he didn't eat.

Thinking of the name [Sorcerer's Apprentice], he made a nonsense casually.

"Ah!"

The old dwarf in the black robe let out a sinister grin, and raised his hand. A black beetle about the size of a fist and resembling a mosquito flew out of the large black sleeve.

The sharp mouthparts are like steel needles, seven or eight centimeters definitely there!
"Buzz-"

The black beetle flapped its wings and flew towards Li Guanqi's eyebrows with its sharp mouthparts. The tip of the extremely sharp mouthparts shone brightly and coldly under the illumination of the surrounding fire.

"If you don't eat, you will die!"

The black-robed dwarf stared at Li Guanqi with extremely cold eyes, and suddenly raised his voice!
"I would rather die than eat."

Li Guanqi closed his eyes.

Because the eyes of this old dwarf are too weird, sometimes like a bottomless abyss, sometimes like a sharp long sword, so sharp that he dare not look directly at it.

He was afraid that staring at the black-robed dwarf for too long would shake his mind.

Followed by.

There was a strange feeling between Li Guanqi's eyebrows. It was a feeling similar to when a sharp object was approaching. Many people have experienced this feeling. They obviously didn't see or touch it, but they could feel it.

Li Guanqi also felt it now.

then.

"Bah!"

Beads of blood ooze out.

The mouthparts of the black beetle pierced directly between his eyebrows!
However, it's just a puncture of the skin.

"I'll ask you again, do you want to eat or not!"

The black-robed dwarf's voice was gloomy, like the evil ghost of the Nine Nether Hell, and he sent a deceptive threat: "If you don't eat, you will die. If you eat it, it's just a nausea. Compared with life, which one is more important?!"

"Don't eat!"

Li Guanqi shouted in a low voice.

only life.

Just don't eat!

After saying that, Li Guanqi suddenly opened his eyes, ignoring the black beetle piercing his eyebrows, and stared at the black-robed dwarf with burning eyes.

Stick to your heart!

The strange gaze of the old dwarf no longer affected him.

The black-robed dwarf also stared at him coldly, "I'll ask you again, eat or die, choose one."

"Bah!"

As soon as the words were finished, the mouthparts of the black beetle pierced a little again, and strands of scarlet blood slid down from the center of Li Guanqi's eyebrows to the bridge of his nose.
