Players on the side of order Author: Prayer of the Breeze

Summary:

Humans need to rely on eyes to see colors, rely on noses to smell, and rely on skin to have a sense of touch. So is there an existence that cannot be recognized by normal human organs but is also an aborigine in this world?

Only a few players who have awakened their spirits can truly see this weird and weird world clearly.

Welcome to the paradise of monsters.

----------------

"We, players on the order side, are at the forefront of fighting against monsters. The most important thing we need to pay attention to is our mental state. Don't, don't contact monsters for too long, it will make your sanity slip into the abyss, and it will be irreversible in the end become a player on the chaotic side."

Ye Bai: "The director is right."

"Be careful of the voices from the evil gods, they will make you degenerate, become their dependents, and even become irrational ghosts."

Ye Bai: "The captain is also right."

"Especially don't be like Ye Bai, dare to raise monster spirits, dare to raise evil gods... and dare to report to the police!"

Ye Bai: "I am certified by the gods, and I am a player on the order side with a strong root!"

Chapter 1 Leaf White

It rained in Linhai City in the morning.

The drizzle in spring washes away the dust in the air, leaving moist and clean water vapor. The blue sky is cloudless, like a blue gem that extends infinitely.

Pedestrians on the street carefully avoid puddles, bicycle bells jingle, young and beautiful high school students walk across the road talking and laughing together, a gray-haired old man is sweeping with a bamboo broom water.

The mild sunlight in the afternoon penetrated through the tall clock tower and spire in the city center, reflecting a dazzling luster on the metal signboard outside the "Candy Convenience Store".

"Ding~"

An old woman with gray hair and a kind face walked into the convenience store, looked around, and came to the counter.

Ye Bai, who was in a daze, immediately came back to his senses: "Welcome to Candy Convenience, what do you need to buy?"

"Boy, bring me two boxes of eggs."

"Okay, grandma, wait a moment."

Ye Bai, who was standing behind the counter, nodded, showing a business-like smile.

He turned sideways, reached out and took two boxes of discounted eggs from the shelf behind him, held the straps on the buttons with his fingers, and carefully handed them to the old woman standing in front of the cash register.

"Thank you."

The kind-hearted old woman smiled kindly.

then.

She raised her arm, and stretched out a big pale hand that was bigger than a cattail fan, full of bloodshot, cracks and eyeballs, to Ye Bai's body.

The blood on the hand was flowing, wriggling, separating, and merging.

From the crack came a tiny scream like a baby crying.

More than a dozen eyeballs rolled around, and the pure black pupils looked like dense eggs.

With a natural expression and unchanged smile, Ye Bai stacked two boxes of eggs and placed them gently in this hand.

It covered three eyeballs and suppressed a large bloodshot.

Ye Bai kept his eyes straight, pretending not to hear the cries and screams that suddenly became sharp as needles in the air.

"Grandma, hold it well, hold it carefully, and be careful not to drop it."

"Okay, okay, what a nice boy."

The old grandma grinned and smiled kindly, revealing a few incomplete scarlet teeth.

Holding the egg carton in her palm, she walked out of the convenience store step by step without looking back.

The crying and screaming that echoed in the air became smaller and gradually faded away.

Ye Bai still had a smile as hard as a plastic shell, standing behind the counter of the convenience store, watching the old lady walk out of the automatic door of the convenience store.

——He tried his best to suppress the sudden burst of joy in his heart, not letting it show in the slightest.

*

That was about six months ago.

In the second half of a cool autumn night, many people suddenly heard a crisp sound like glass shattering.

To be precise, most people who were awake at the time claimed to have heard a 'click' and a 'pop'.

A crisp sound rang in my ears, weak but very clear, as if a window not far away was smashed into pieces by a tennis ball falling from the sky.

But how is this possible?Although glass products have penetrated into every corner of people's lives, there are always people who have no similar objects around them, such as some families with tents camping in the mountains and forests, and they also hear similar voices; After looking around, there were no traces of broken glass products.

Even if some minorities are excluded, the scope of influence of this matter is enough to be called a 'supernatural event'.

But even so, the sound was quite weak after all, and it was fleeting like a hallucination. Apart from a few car accidents caused by fright, there were no other bad effects. Therefore, after several days of active discussions on the Internet, there was no sound It fell silent.

However, that crisp sound like shattering glass seemed to be the key to open a certain door. From that day on, many rumors of unknown truth began to spread on the Internet.

Various bizarre death cases, missing persons cases, and mysterious bombings of various facilities have increased sharply. A large number of public officials have been transferred to the police department. The municipal security department, which had little presence in the past, frequently appeared on TV and live webcasts. Distribute and explain the new "Safety Regulations" to the public.

There are also many weird rumors, such as someone claiming to watch the sofa at home turn into a giant octopus... and so on.

The core of them are two nouns, 'ghost' and 'player'.

*

Unlike many ordinary people who are ignorant and discuss curiously on the Internet, Ye Bai has been quite convinced of the existence of mysterious power in this world from the very beginning.

The source of this self-confidence probably comes from the fact that Ye Bai is not an aborigine in this world, but a traveler from another world - also known as a traveler.

Inferring that there is a mysterious power in the world based on this reason alone is not completely tenable, it can only be said to be a bold speculation; however, Ye Bai in his previous life was paralyzed from the lower half of his body since he was born, and he was paralyzed until he died in his 20s. I have never stood up from a wheelchair before, and being reincarnated in this world is already an unexpected joy, so there is nothing wrong with raising expectations a little bit higher.

Ye Bai has no worries about his helpless past life, only the gratitude and seriousness of the new life. He has already made up his mind to take everything seriously in the new world and live every day seriously.

According to the rumors on the Internet, the "ghost" is the culprit that caused the recent series of weird events, and the "player" is a dark hero born as the times require, fighting with many strange ghosts in unknown places, Silently guarding the world - that's pretty much what it means.

But rumors are just rumors after all. Even though Ye Bai has been working hard to find information on this, firstly, he is fighting alone, and the few friends he finally met at the police station are all jealous of this. Sure, he didn't dare to take the risk and let go of his hands and feet to inquire.

The old lady who went into the convenience store to buy eggs just now really surprised Ye Bai.

Exceptions exist.Although I don't know if it is the "monster" in the rumors, but it is indeed an abnormality that is impossible to appear in normal life.

In other words, there is a high probability that extraordinary powers such as "players" also exist.

Then there is no doubt that Ye Bai has only one goal in the future, and that is to go all out and chase the opportunity to become a player.

Just as he was thinking about it, and picked up a rag and began to seriously wipe the cash register, Ye Bai's gaze suddenly turned to the right. Under the snack rack on the counter, a jet-black card quietly appeared at some point.

2 minutes ago, there was absolutely no such card there... Ye Bai looked at it quietly for a few seconds, and after feeling that it would not bring any immediate danger, he reached out to pick up the card.

With the touch of his finger, a line of small white words appeared on the card:

"Player Qualification Examination Certificate"

Only this short eight words made Ye Bai raise his eyebrows immediately.

*

My friend at the police station couldn't tell Ye Bai some details because he signed a confidentiality agreement, but he mentioned vaguely: "Even if those things do exist, if you want to become a player, you must pass the assessment."

Also, where in this world is there such a thing as being able to become an extraordinary person by drinking a bottle of potion?If you have any, please pour the potion into my stomach.

Of course, Ye Bai didn't know what form and when the so-called assessment would come to him, but after he tried to tap the card in his hand, the line of white words changed again.

"The next batch of assessments will start at ten o'clock in the evening"

Only time, no place?

Ye Bai reached out and poked the card again, but there was no other response from the card.

However, this card can probably become a player's pass, and there should be nothing wrong with that.

It is now six o'clock in the afternoon, and there are only four hours before ten o'clock in the evening. Counting the time to go home and make dinner for my sister, it can be said to be more relaxed; An oppressive countdown.

After thinking for a few seconds, Ye Bai took off the convenience store apron on his body, neatly folded it neatly, and placed it under the cash register. With his left foot, he staggered out of the counter.

The crutch made a clicking sound on the ground, and soon a middle-aged woman appeared behind the shelf, looking at Ye Bai in surprise: "Xiao Ye, what's wrong?"

"Sorry, store manager, I just received a message and I have to go home quickly."

"Oh, you have to go back to take care of your sister, right? It's really hard work," said the store manager, "Then you go. Is it okay to be alone?"

"fine."

It is said to take care of my sister, but in fact there is no such thing.After all, my younger sister, Ye Xiaoyi, is over 18 years old and has become an adult. She is no longer a child who needs to be taken care of by her elder brother; what's more, with Ye Bai's current disabled attitude, it is the younger sister who often runs home from college to accompany her elder brother because of her concern. It was impossible to tell who was causing trouble to whom.

But they are all a family, so naturally there is no need to get entangled in this matter, just for the sake of his brother's dignity, Ye Bai reservedly did not refute the store manager's words.

The appearance of Ye Bai leaning on crutches is not very convincing, but after getting along for a few months, the store manager just took a look at him and waved him away with confidence.

After all, for self-defense and normal life, Ye Bai has learned a little martial arts in the past year, so there is no problem in protecting himself.

Standing outside the store, Ye Bai smoothed out the wrinkles on his clothes carefully, then leaned on a cane, and walked towards home at the same walking speed as a normal person.

Compared with the miserable life of being paralyzed in bed and never standing up in his previous life, Ye Bai is actually quite satisfied with his current physical condition: only his left calf is paralyzed.You don't even need a wheelchair, you only need a small crutch to move around freely, what's not to like?

But now that you have experienced freedom, there is nothing wrong with raising your expectations a little bit higher.He desperately wants to become a "player". There is a certain reason why he wants to obtain a healthy body that can move freely. Disability is disability after all. He has many ideas, which cannot be realized with his current body.

And when ordinary medical skills can't do this, they can only pin their hopes on unknown mysterious powers, which is also human nature.

While thinking about such things, Ye Bai crossed the street, and when he was waiting for the traffic lights, two people suddenly approached beside him.All adults, males.

"This little brother, come to talk?"

They are one on the left and one on the right, and put them on Ye Bai's shoulders and arms affectionately.

Ye Bai subconsciously wanted to shake his shoulders, and quietly reached out to touch the wrist on his shoulders—but he stopped quickly, and turned his head with a smile: "May I ask what's the matter?"

"It's very important, come here."

Ye Bai didn't refuse, and followed them off the main road, turning into a secluded alley.

The two men stood in front of and behind Ye Bai, three meters in front of and behind Ye Bai.One of them is tall and thin, like a bamboo pole, and the other is short and fat, like a ball.

For the sake of convenience, they are called Mr. Zhugan and Mr. Piqiu.

Coming to the alley, the noise on the street suddenly disappeared, and the air became inexplicably much quieter.Mr. Zhugan quickly turned to Ye Bai, no longer hiding the surprise and greed in his eyes.

"It's really lucky to meet a reserve player." He said.

"What is a reserve player?" Ye Bai asked.

"Don't be stupid, you got the player qualification certificate, right? It's the black card, I can already smell it." Mr. Zhugan glanced at Ye Bai, "That's not a good thing , hand it over, we will keep it for you."

"Storage." Mr. Piqiu repeated naively.

"It turned out to be robbery." Ye Bai nodded, and before the two gentlemen answered, he continued, "It's not impossible to give it to you. After all, I'm a disabled person, so I can only be bullied when encountering such a thing. But I am still at a loss, if you can answer my questions, I will not resist or shout, and just give you the card, how about it?"

Mr. Zhugan subconsciously looked at the crutch in Ye Bai's hand and his apparently unconscious left leg, hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "You can ask three questions, hurry up."

"First, are players the same as superpowers?" Ye Bai asked directly.

"You can think so." Mr. Zhugan replied with a smile.

His expression was playful, and his short answer was clearly full of perfunctory.It's not wrong to deal with it this way. After all, one party robs and the other is robbed. It's not a friendly and cooperative relationship. Moreover, if you are a mere cripple, so what if you bully you?

Ye Bai was not angry, and continued to ask: "Second, can becoming a player heal my leg?"

"Maybe it is possible." Mr. Zhugan raised his eyebrows, and immediately added, "But don't even think about it, that kind of ability is very rare, and ordinary players can't get it at all. You might as well find a way to save more money, please have it Players with similar abilities can help you heal."

Ye Bai nodded thoughtfully, and then asked: "Third, are you players?"

"Of course." After Mr. Zhugan finished speaking, he stretched out his hand, "Three questions are over, let's take out the card."

His voice was quite urgent, and the ball master behind Ye Bai had already approached slowly, as if he was going to get it himself in the next second.

"Don't worry, I have a fourth question." Ye Bai said slowly.

Mr. Zhugan's expression darkened immediately: "Do you want to go back on your word?"

"No, because I didn't plan to give you anything from the beginning." Ye Bai leaned on a cane and said with a smile, "The fourth question, what are you afraid of?"
