Chu Shici didn’t even know what the system was excited about.
‘Ge, this is a hand, not a tentacle. And what’s the use of my long tentacles, I’m pure 0. ‘
[Counterattack* is not impossible, I will eat anything.]
*(reverse)
‘No, no, I don’t suffer for love, I really like to lie down and enjoy. It is impossible to counterattack, and it is impossible in this life. ‘
[It’s okay to reverse, what a good resource, what a pity to waste it.]
The system is clearly joking, and its attention is quickly diverted elsewhere.
Chu Shici took another hand from his body and looked at it lost in thought.
The little assistant’s hugging posture was wrong, Gu Yunzhe buried his head in his body, unable to breathe at all.
He struggled a few times before Chu Shici realised it.
He let go, and Gu Yunzhe fell to his knees, panting heavily with his hands on the ground.
The system screamed: [You lift his face up and let me see it!]
Chu Shici also wanted to see it.
Gu Yunzhe was so suffocated that his face was red, and there was a layer of mist in his eyes.
He knelt on the ground and looked up at Chu Shici. There was no emotion in those eagle-like eyes.
The system hissed: [This person is so good-looking, and the colour on his face is still very normal. There were tears, but I just felt something was wrong.]
‘Temperament problem, he is pure and fierce 1.’
Gu Yunzhe took a breath and returned to the bed.
He lay on his side, looked at Chu Shici for a while, closed his eyes and began to take a nap.
Chu Shici was getting used to his own body when a notification sound suddenly came from his mind.
[Increase the vitality value by 1, and the current vitality value is 9/100.]
He stretched out his hand towards the bed, ‘Tong-ge, you say. If I hug him a few more times, can I squeeze a few more points?’
After receiving the support from the system, Chu Shici picked up Gu Yunzhe again and stuffed him into his arms.
The little assistant’s body is soft and cool, as if lying on a water bed, it feels good.
Gu Yunzhe had no expression on his face and let him play around.
After playing with the male lead for a while, Chu Shici tilted his head and asked him, “I feel that I am better than the bed. How about you sleeping on me at night?”
Gu Yunzhe lost his temper after being tormented, he said coldly: “Anything is fine.”
The little assistant was very happy and drew a line on his forehead.
Lifting him up, he lowered his voice, “Simba—”
Gu Yunzhe: …
The vitality value did not increase, but Chu Shici had a good time.
After being let go, Gu Yunzhe started fiddling with the watch again, trying to find the power-off button.
Chu Shici shrunk himself to the size of a basketball, stretched out several arms, and lowered his head to study his body carefully.
The system wiped his glasses and asked curiously: [What are you busy with?]
Chu Shici tried to wrap his other free arm around himself, ‘You are right, such a good resource should not be wasted.’
[…I was just joking, why do you take it so seriously.]
‘If it works, this is a tentacle play, if you miss this, you will never have the opportunity again.’
The system was silent for a while.
It and Chu Shici both like to talk big, but it’s all just talk.
Chu Shici not only talked big, but he also wanted to have in on the action.
This is probably the difference between ordinary people and coquettish 0.
After searching for a few minutes, Gu Yunzhe put down the watch but couldn’t find the off button.
He was about to eat something when he looked up and saw a ball rolling on the ground.
Eyes met, the ball rolled in front of him, “Zhe-ge, help! Untie me quickly.”
After seeing the little assistant’s state, Gu Yunzhe’s mind went blank again for a moment.
The ball of light became the size of a basketball, sticking out a bunch of long strips of jelly, it was clearly entangled.
Gu Yunzhe looked at it for a while.
He never thought that in this world, there would be people who would entangle their hands together in a dead knot.
His eyelids twitched, “What are you doing?”
Chu Shici was embarrassed to tell him that he was trying to play with his tentacles.
He laughed awkwardly twice, pretending not to have heard the question.
Gu Yunzhe helped Chu Shici untie, and the system laughed wildly in his mind.
It took more than half an hour to finally untie the little assistant’s tied hands.
Chu Shici threw himself into Gu Yunzhe’s arms, hugged him and rubbed against him hard.
Shouting Zhe-ge repeatedly, he said ‘I like you so much.’
Gu Yunzhe doesn’t remember anything about the past.
This ball sticks to him so much, he and his little assistant must have been the closest comrades-in-arms before he lost his memory.
That night Chu Shici became as big as a bed and invited his husband to sleep on him.
Gu Yunzhe was used to sleeping on hard beds, and this was the first time he slept on a water bed. He dreamed that he was floating in the ocean all night.
Early the next morning, he supported his sore waist and looked at the sleeping assistant with a dark face.
Doesn’t matter if they were comrade-in-arms, he doesn’t want him anymore.
___
This time period is very lively.
During the day, the monsters were fighting in the street, and the black mist slowly drifted over their heads.
At night, a night walker who looks like a tree branch, comes out for a walk with a bunch of heads.
Chu Shici’s mentality also made a huge leap.
Now when he sees Nightwalker, he doesn’t feel anything.
While the head was flying around the room, he and Gu Yunzhe were playing under the bed.
Chu Shici confessed his love to his husband carefully again.
Gu Yunzhe didn’t react, but his vitality value increased silently.
It’s 10 o’clock now, and it’s a joyous time*.
*(In chinese, they used 可喜可贺: something to be happy about and something to celebrate, in literal terms, I believe it also has the connotations of it being a wedding or a happily ever after.)
Six days later, the acid rain finally stopped.
It was desolate outside, and there were only mottled bloodstains on the ground. As before, all the corpses of the monsters disappeared.
Gu Yunzhe is still looking for his lost item.
Chu Shici asked him about his general idea of what it could be.
The thing must look very special, as long as Gu Yunzhe sees it, he can probably recognize it.
Although it might have been stolen, the world outside the city was even bigger, and he didn’t know where to look for it.
Gu Yunzhe’s search speed was very fast, and he had already searched a quarter of the city.
His goal today was to search the buildings two streets away.
Chu Shici became the size of a hat and lay on top of Gu Yunzhe’s head.
In the afternoon, black mist appeared in the sky again.
The sound of the siren echoed in the silent city, and the red light swept over the two of them.
On Gu Yunzhe, the screen of the combat watch lit up slightly.
Chu Shici went up to take a look, and there was a small red indicator light at the bottom of the screen.
He pointed to the small lamp: “Zhe-ge, what is this thing?”
Gu Yunzhe glanced at it, “I don’t know, every time there is an alarm, it will flash.”
He held the male lead’s wrist and studied for a while, but couldn’t figure out why.
This world is strange, and Chu Shici didn’t have many brain cells left, so he chose to give up investigating further.
In the nearby buildings, there is nothing special inside.
At four o’clock in the afternoon, they arrived at the last area.
These are a few dilapidated buildings, from the material and architectural style, its former glory can be faintly seen.
There was no one in the guard room, and a pull up bar seemed to have been broken into two pieces by something.
There are a few words etched into the wall next to the main entrance. The words were covered in blood, and many characters were missing.
It can only be vaguely recognized that this should be a biological research institute of a group.
In the capsule cabin of the first world where he lived for forty years.
Chu Shici has watched many movies.
Seeing ‘biological research’ and thinking about the background of the end of the world, several films immediately popped up in his mind.
Resident Evil, World War Z, Dawn of the Dead
He jumped down from the top of Old Gong, grabbed his hand and said in a low voice: “I don’t think it’s safe inside, there is blood everywhere, and there might be many monsters hidden. If you open the door, they will swarm out and bite you.”
Gu Yunzhe tilted his head slightly, “Why?”
“This is a routine. It’s always done in movies and TV dramas. Hospitals, schools, and research institutes are the most dangerous places except villas in the wilderness.”
He spoke very seriously, Gu Yunzhe paused.
The little white ball bounced a few times and pointed to the Biological Institute: “I am not a living thing, and those monsters will not eat me. Zhe-ge, you find a place to hide and wait. I will go to explore the way first. I have not seen many things in the laboratory and might not recognise many of them so you will go in with me later.”
Gu Yunzhe stared down at him, “Why?”
Because there is zero risk and high return, no matter how you think about it, you will not lose anything.
But Chu Shici felt that this was a free mark question, and he should think properly before giving his answer.
The spherical body gradually grows larger until it becomes as tall as a human.
Gu Yunzhe, who was in deep thought, was embraced by the big white ball.
The little assistant’s smiling voice was next to my ear, “Why do I want to go in by myself first? Of course it’s because I like you and want to protect you. Zhe-ge, don’t worry, I’m here.”
Gu Yunzhe was slightly stunned.
After losing his memory and waking up in a deserted city full of monsters. After aimlessly wandering around for twelve days, he couldn’t find what he wanted to find no matter what.
Gu Yunzhe doesn’t care about loneliness, but he needs a partner.
Deep in the sphere, he slowly raised his hand and hugged Chu Shici back.
At the same time, a notification sounded in the system space.
[Add 1 to the vitality value, and the current vitality value is 11/100.]
___
The male protagonist doesn’t like to talk, and the only person in the discussion is Chu Shici.
Chu Shici explained to his husband that he made this decision because of the high cost performance and Gu Yunzhe is a human being.
No matter what monsters are inside, they are sure to attack the living. Then there will be another fight, another chase.
Just thinking about it gives him a headache, why not just go alone as a ball, it will save time and effort.
Gu Yunzhe was persuaded by him, “One hour, hurry up and come back.”
Saying goodbye to his husband, Chu Shici entered the Biological Institute alone.
Gu Yunzhe will meet him in an abandoned bookstore nearby.
There was a deathly silence in the Biological Institute.
Chu Shici went in from the entrance, the walls and floors were covered with old blood.
At the front desk, there were a few broken bones scattered about.
He couldn’t tell if it was a human bone or not.
There is nothing special on the entire first floor except for blood and broken bones.
Chu Shici flew up the stairs to the second floor.
When passing by the elevator room, the elevator door opened a crack.
He squeezed in and took a look, the inside was densely packed with bones.
Chu Shici shivered, remembering the classic movie “Resident Evil”, and slipped away.
In a single office on the top floor of the fourth floor, Chu Shici found a small notebook.
There are newspaper clippings and some words from the owner of the book.
Without recording the date, it is not considered a diary. It should just be written casually, as a channel for catharsis.
The contents of the newspaper reported the fall of the imperial capital.
There is a line of handwritten words below, [A group of beasts! This is fucking all-out aggression, the capital has fallen and the country has perished. They ruined everything !!!]
[We live an honest life, do our duty, and have never done anything wrong. Why did the war even start?]
[I will not allow these villains to wantonly invade my country, they all deserve to die. If the royal family can’t protect us, then we have to do it ourselves. Even if it is death, we have to bite off a piece of meat from the enemy, and at worst, we will die together!]
Most of the entries are dated in the early days before the end.
It can be seen that the natives of this world never thought of bowing their heads in the face of aggression.
The Institute has a total of four buildings, connected by corridor bridges in the middle.
Chu Shici walked through the three floors of abc and got into the last area d.
This is the experimental base, and it is full of instruments that he can’t understand.
There was a lot of blood splattered on the wall, and there were large and small holes in the doors of several laboratories.
Chu Shici followed the blood on the ground and walked all the way in.
At the end is a huge laboratory with a large area. There are three doors in front of it, all of which have been destroyed.
The system, which had been silent all this time, suddenly said, [Above you!]
Chu Shici shrank into a ball and looked up.
The roof of the laboratory is completely covered, and the winding branches of trees climb the ceiling.
It has several branches, and there are human bones hanging under each branch.
The skeleton was wearing a tattered white coat, hanging in the air, and it should have been a researcher here before it was alive.
Chu Shici boldly flew up and leaned over to the branch to check.
At this moment, a light screen popped up in front of his eyes.
[Video has been recorded.]
[Safety level monster: Ancient Tree God.]
[In the ancient records, there are stories about it. Legend has it that it grows underground, and whenever there is a massacre, it will emerge and eat all the corpses. Because of its huge size, comparable to a continent, human beings mistakenly regard it as a destructive level. After it was discovered that it does not feed on living things, it was downgraded to a safe level. (Provided by Human Freedom Alliance)]
A light flashed in Chu Shici’s head.
No wonder the monster corpses disappear every time there is a big fight.
He thought it was a holographic game, and the corpse would be refreshed regularly, but it turned out that it was dragged away by this tree and eaten.
The branches of the ancient tree god are entrenched in the underground, inside the walls, and all hidden corners of this city.
Chu Shici felt the hair on his back.
The researcher’s death had nothing to do with the ancient tree god. On the bones, traces of animal bites could be seen.
After visiting this research institute, except for the ancient tree god, there are no other files on other creatures included.
Chu Shici flew fast, and the exploration was completed in less than forty minutes.
With him leading the way, Gu Yunzhe went smoothly all the way in.
After searching carefully, it is certain that there is nothing he is looking for here.
Before leaving, they found the dead body of the mouse in a large laboratory.
It’s not a mutant giant rat, it’s just an ordinary rat in terms of size. The skin and flesh on it are gone, leaving a small skeleton.
The two searched through the entire laboratory to find the incomplete experiment report.
The pages were yellowed, and the contents inside were extremely obscure.
Combined with other scattered clues, one can vaguely guess what happened here.
Alien forces invaded the empire and the capital fell. When the country was dying, this private enterprise spontaneously saved the country.
The technology mastered by the country is not an opponent of alien warships. If you want to drive away the invaders, you can only find other ways.
They planned to create mutated creatures, but the experiments went out of control.
The mutant rat escaped from the laboratory and killed the researcher. A large number of corpses attracted the ancient tree god, and the research institute finally became what it is now.
Chu Shici didn’t know what to say for a moment.
He looked around, the laboratory was full of long-dried blood.
Countless skeletons in white coats were hung in the air by the ancient tree god. Constantly swaying and colliding, making noises.
Chu Shici looked up for a while.
He suddenly felt that human beings in the last days are small in the face of these creatures but great in their achievements.
___
The second wave of searches carried out was meticulous.
By the time they left the institute, it was already night.
Gu Yunzhe chose to settle in a nearby bookstore, where there is a room for temporary rest.
Most importantly, people can hide under the bed.
Chu Shici was in a bad mood because of the research institute.
He looked at Gu Yunzhe, his husband was still expressionless, and he couldn’t guess what he was thinking.
After nightfall, the night walker came out for a walk with the pile of heads again. The streets were bustling with people as usual.
Chu Shici turned into a big white ball, hugging Gu Yunzhe and getting ready to sleep.
The night walker went shopping elsewhere, Chu Shici whispered, “Zhe-ge, since this city is empty, why doesn’t it leave?”
Gu Yunzhe leaned against his little assistant’s soft body: “I don’t know.”
“Ge, do you think this world will be a holographic game? Nightwalker is the dungeon boss of this city. Otherwise, you won’t be able to eat a ration. What is it doing guarding this empty city?”
The male protagonist’s voice has always been calm, but there are some ups and downs.
“Holographic game?”
“Yes, you should know, it’s that kind of very advanced virtual game.”
Gu Yunzhe turned over in his arms, frowning slightly, “Why do you think so?”
Chu Shici conjured up two hands and made a summary with him while gesturing.
“Weird monsters, evil gods, mutated animals, alien invasions, and a bunch of large and small local forces by visual inspection. There are so many things, I don’t think it looks like the end of the world.”
He paused, “I look very two-dimensional, and I look like a slime. Others have black hair and black eyes, but you have white hair and golden pupils. No matter how we look at it, we are incompatible with this world. So I guess you’re a player, and I’m your little pet.”
Gu Yunzhe looked at him quietly, a hint of puzzlement flashed in those amber eyes.
He didn’t express any opinion on Chu Shici’s words, and skipped the topic with silence.
Chu Shici was not sure if his guess was correct.
Seeing that Gu Yunzhe had been silent, and seeing that his vitality was only 11 points, he felt that his husband might be in a bad mood.
He separated a part of his body, and moulded himself to make a puppy.
Gu Yunzhe was thinking about what Chu Shici had just said.
He tried to think in that direction, but couldn’t recall memories that could support the theory.
Just then, a white puppy appeared in his sight.
The humble puppy dangled in front of him, and the assistant’s cheerful voice came from behind him, “Zhe-ge, look, balloon dog.”
Gu Yunzhe pursed his lips, “You don’t have to do this.”
The little assistant hugged him even tighter, rubbing against him back and forth.
Gu Yunzhe lowered his eyes, and tapped the soft hand of the little assistant with his fingers.
A message of increased vitality pops up in the background, [Increase the vitality by 1, and the current vitality is 12/100.]
The system, who has been watching the show, let out a long oh.
[Just pamper him more.]
Chu Shici stared at the vitality value: ‘Hurry up and increase.’
[I think the increase is quite fast, no matter how much you love him, there is no need to be in such a hurry, you have to take it step by step.]
‘Not only is it distressing, but I also want to eat meat. A fierce 1 is in front of me, but I am a ball. This is a tough day.’
[Fuck, I really overestimated you.]
___
After the vitality increased to double digits, the effect was immediate.
Gu Yunzhe, who seldom talked to Chu Shici before, was willing to take the initiative to talk to him.
Although every time the words are short and his tone is cold, it is a good sign.
The place to search today is the city centre.
The human walks in front, the ball flies behind, and there is no danger along the way.
During the journey, Chu Shici saw several symbols of various factions along the way.
The closer to the city centre, the more patterns there are, and the archives are updated accordingly.
There are religious forces who believe in the god of death and call themselves “believers of the god of death”. Capture living people to worship the god of death, hoping to get salvation.
They are a violent group of thugs without any morals. After the collapse of social order, they wantonly burned, killed and looted.
There is also an organisation, because of the sudden population decline in the last days, it began to worship fertility, and it reproduced frantically in order to leave a kindling for human beings. Firmly believing that the more life there is, the greater the hope.
They put up propaganda everywhere, saying that as long as they are willing to donate their bodies for the continuation of mankind, the organisation will provide shelter and food.
Just this small area of the city centre has been occupied by at least three forces.
But according to the data provided by the Human Freedom Alliance, they all perished.
At the end of the day, they didn’t find what they were looking for, but found two strongholds that perished.
From the wreckage of the building, traces of the conflict between the gangs can be seen.
As the sky gradually darkened, Gu Yunzhe picked a relatively safe place and prepared to spend the night.
Chu Shici floated aside, observing his daily life.
Compared with Mingzhe, the male protagonist in this world is more like Su Zheyan, but there are obvious differences with him.
Su Zheyan pretends to be aloof, but in reality he is thin-skinned and easily shy.
He is far from being as mature and stable as he looks on the outside. After finding that the little robot is cute, he will take the initiative to reach out to play with him.
Gu Yunzhe is different, judging from the current situation, he is really an ice-cold male lead.
The general commanded all armies and was admired by all. Agents are stalkers of the dark, they are professionally trained and used to being alone.
Su Zheyan needs someone to accompany him, and the young Mingzhe wants to be cared for.
And none of these are needed by agents.
Gu Yunzhe leaned against the bedside to read a book, while Chu Shici watched him from the side.
They are all alone, surviving in the harsh environment.
Su Zheyan fell asleep every night, and when Gu Yunzhe couldn’t find entertainment tools, he would pick his fingers to pass the time.
The life-saving straw in the eyes of the male protagonists of the first two worlds is just an added flavour to his life. It’s better to have it, but it doesn’t matter if you don’t have it.
It’s useless to just be cute, the vitality points can rise to 20 at most.
Chu Shici fell into deep thought.
Gu Yunzhe was reading a book when a ball suddenly squeezed in front of him.
“Zhe-ge, I thought of a way. See if you can think of anything.”
Under Gu Yunzhe’s slightly surprised gaze, Chu Shici stretched himself back and forth, constantly changing into various shapes that are common in life.
When he dented himself into a pair of anti-fog goggles, Gu Yunzhe pressed him lightly.
At the same time, Chu Shici heard the mechanical beep.
[Add 3 to the vitality value, and the current vitality value is 15/100.]
