Immortal I Speedrun Supernatural Game

Chapter 315 The Gap Between People
After experiencing a few minutes of social mishap on the way.

The siblings followed Xiaoxiao to a villa located relatively far inside the town.

I listened to Xiaoxiao's explanation along the way.

There are only about 30 villas in this villa area.

In terms of both privacy and land value, it belongs to the most high-end category in Beijing.

Of course, this only applies to areas in the capital city that can be measured in monetary terms.

Otherwise, going into the inner ring road would truly be under the emperor's nose.

That's beyond what you can describe as land being incredibly valuable.

The buildings within those areas are all considered cultural relics.

They have official positions.

It cannot be described in terms of mere economic value.

Even so, from Wu Wang's perspective...

The villa where Xiaoxiao currently lives is not something that can be obtained simply with money.

Otherwise, she would be a level 20 or so player in the Spirit Disaster faction.

Logically speaking, there should be quite a few players who are richer than her.

But it's not necessarily true that everyone lives in such a luxurious and extravagant place.

It's clear that people who can afford to buy a home in this villa area are the ones who can afford it.

One also needs to have a certain social status.

This also made Wu Xiaoyou curious about the identity of the white-haired little girl.

"She doesn't look like her usual self now, does she?"

Upon arriving at the villa.

The siblings sat on the sofa in the living room.

While Xiaoxiao was making tea for the two of them.

The second sister asked Wu Wang curiously.

Wu Wang felt there was nothing to hide about this.

He explained why Xiaoxiao was cursed.

He also joked, "Even without the curse, some of the distorted aesthetics in this society are still very strange on the internet."

"Men are gradually becoming more feminine, women are trying to become more childlike, and the childlike are playing the dark side."

Wu Xiaoyou could tell that he was satirizing the phenomenon of effeminate men online, the juvenile nature of aesthetics, and the adolescent delusions of primary school students.

I asked instinctively, "What about the black one?"

Xiao Xiao, who had just brewed tea, walked over from not far away.

Then Wu Wang said in a very serious tone:

"The black one is picking cotton."

For a moment, the imagery was so abstract that she almost lost her grip on the teacup.

The thought that "hellish jokes are unacceptable" silently flashed through my mind.

She handed the two of them a tea set that looked quite expensive.

The moment I received the tea.

Wu Wangguang could judge the quality of tea by its color and aroma.

This thing is probably quite valuable.

He knew very well that some teas were just as valuable as gold, and in some cases even more so.

It belongs to the category of high-end luxury goods.

So, in order to satisfy the curiosity of her second sister and herself.

He couldn't help but ask indirectly, "Legal Loli, you didn't buy this house yourself, did you?"

Xiaoxiao had no intention of hiding anything.

Ignore the way Wu Wang refers to himself.

After taking a sip of tea, he nodded and said, "Of course, this is my father's property. Otherwise, who would be willing to spend so much money to buy a villa that they never come back to live in all year round? They would be foolish and have too much money."

"But it also makes it convenient for me to hide my identity."

"After all, it's not easy for outsiders to get in touch with me here."

These words made Wu Wang feel somewhat ashamed.

Goodness, as the saying goes, "A minor hermit lives in the forest, a major hermit lives in the world."

The way others seek to avoid the world and achieve seclusion is to go to remote, untouched mountains and forests.

Your way of avoiding the world is to live in a villa area that ordinary people are not even qualified to approach, right?
Although the effects seem to be about the same.

For a moment, Wu Wang couldn't tell whether the girl was speaking abstractly or seriously.

This is about the white-haired loli who claims her father is stupid and rich.

He casually asked, "Your dad's business is pretty big, huh? Do you have any brand names you could share? Maybe I can get a discount if I mention your name when I buy something."

Upon hearing this, Xiaoxiao replied without any hesitation:
“My father is Zhang Jianguo, yes, the Zhang Jianguo you’re thinking of.”

Her tone was as flat as if she were introducing a security guard in a residential compound.

The name came out.

Wu Xiaoyou only felt a sense of familiarity.

I feel like I've heard that somewhere before.

But Wu Wang, standing to the side, was filled with a sense of awe.

I even felt like standing up.

This stop is for no other reason than...

It's simply a matter of respect for money and status.

Seeing that her second sister was still thinking, she explained, "If I'm not mistaken, the Zhang Jianguo that Legal Loli is talking about is... Zhang Jianguo from Zhonghai Group, right? He's the kind of person who can make the news just by having a meal in public."

China Overseas Group is the construction and real estate enterprise group in China with the longest history of professional operation, the earliest market-oriented operation, and the highest degree of integration.

In China, a country known for its infrastructure prowess.

The fact that the group has firmly established itself as a leader in the construction industry is sufficient proof of its strength.

Furthermore, China Overseas Group has also made significant strides into other industries.

It has long since transformed from a simple construction industry group into the most comprehensive group in China.

And there is none other than that.

And this is the China Overseas Group, which can even be directly linked to the Chinese economy.

The CEO's name is Zhang Jianguo.

A name that seems very common and fits the naming style of the older generation in the 1970s and 80s.

When Wu Wang uttered the words "China Overseas Group".

Xiao Xiao added, "My real name is Zhang Haixiao, but you two can just call me Xiao Xiao, I prefer that name."

To be honest, Wu Wang had considered that this girl's family background was not simple.

But I never expected it to be so complicated!
"Holy crap, I think I've actually heard this name in the news before. No wonder it sounds familiar." Wu Xiaoyou couldn't help but complain, "Even if you're not a player, wouldn't you be a little princess in the capital who can have whatever you want?"

Wu Wang also chimed in, "Sure enough, the biggest turning point in life isn't the college entrance exam, it's the amniotic fluid."

Hearing this, Xiaoxiao retorted somewhat helplessly:
"What use is a little princess? Some things are destined to be something that money and status cannot buy."

"For example, this curse that could kill me right now."

"Even if my father finds out, do you think he can solve the problem?"

A single sentence instantly brought his lofty status back to the cold reality.

Even Wu Xiaoyou, an outsider who wasn't a player, could feel the desolation.

Yes, from the moment Xiaoxiao became a player, an unbreakable rift formed between her and her family in real life.

No matter how rich or powerful the family is.

There was no way to buy a way to break the curse.

Xiao Xiao added, "Actually, people at my father's level also have some understanding of the existence of the Spirit Disaster Game."

"His closest bodyguards and driver are all trustworthy veteran players. Uncle Li and Uncle Wang were my father's comrades-in-arms when they were young, and they have been players for much longer than I have."

“I told them when I was first cursed, and my two uncles certainly didn’t hide it from my father.”

"Even so, with the help of two experienced veteran players and my father's immense wealth and connections, we still couldn't find a solution."

"Ultimately, I suggested that we move out ourselves to find a solution."

But everyone knows very well—

"In the face of death, everyone is equal."

In fact, Xiaoxiao's idea of ​​moving out wasn't just about finding a solution on her own.

He also wanted to stay away from his family so that they wouldn't have to witness his life coming to an end.

The moment death arrives.

Everyone is destined to have no choice but to accept it.

The only difference is whether one is open-minded or fearful.

However, Wu Xiaoyou glanced at Wu Wang, who was chugging his teacup like it was plain water.

A hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes.

Well, there are exceptions.

Everyone else is trying their best to survive.

His younger brother, however, inexplicably had a longing for death.

According to him, the allure of death is like a structure etched into his DNA.

Just as breathing and drinking water are the foundation of human survival, they are behaviors that living things cannot avoid.

Death held a greater allure for Wu than these survival behaviors.

He couldn't even call it an instinctive reaction.

It's more like a mission that must be accomplished...

Or it could be a curse.

As for why this happened, even now, Wu has not found the answer.

"Let's not talk about that for now, Boss Yan, how do you plan to remove the curse from me?" Xiao Xiao asked with a serious expression.

After all, this concerned her own life and death.

Although he appeared calm in the [Anecdotes of the Pear Garden] instance.

But that was more like a helpless compromise in a desperate situation.

Since we are alive now.

She definitely won't let go.

Wu Wang finished his tea like a cow chewing on a peony, still chewing on the tea leaves, and mumbled, "I have an item that can transfer the curse on you. As for where it will be transferred to, don't worry about it, it won't concern you anyway."

You can hear about this method.

Xiao Xiao's eyes turned a little strange.

He asked uncertainly, "The prop you're referring to, could it be the [Selfless One's Silver Needles]?"

"Hmm?" Wu Wang raised an eyebrow in surprise.

This girl actually knows about this prop?
Seeing Wu Wang's expression, Xiao Xiao immediately realized that she had guessed correctly.

A hint of disappointment, even despair, began to appear in his eyes.

His hand holding the teacup and his subsequent tone both trembled slightly.

"This prop... was mentioned by the two uncles before."

"But there must be someone who is completely willing to accept the curse on me."

"Brother Yan... this won't work..."

An existence that is able to wholeheartedly accept the curse without any resistance.

It's definitely not possible for outsiders.

Even if it costs a lot of money to buy someone's life.

The other party will instinctively resist the curse and the fear of death.

Only someone you love and are closest to can be so selfless.

Xiaoxiao actually has four such people around her—

Those were her parents and two uncles who had watched her grow up.

But they are all my family!
Xiao Xiao would never let them die in her place.

Yan Shuangying and he were not related by blood.

It's impossible to be completely willing, both physiologically and psychologically!
She hadn't expected things to turn out so dramatically.

I thought I could find a way out through Yan Shuangying.

However, this is now an idea that has long been rejected.

Hope was dashed.

As I watched the little white-haired girl, tears began to stream down her face uncontrollably.

Wu Wang even added casually, "Don't forget you only have a few months left to live."

"Crying? Crying also counts as time!"

The curse of the "Childhood Lock" will cause Xiaoxiao's thinking to shift towards that of a child.

Although the "Heart of Fire" helped to mitigate the childishness of his thinking.

However, her emotions will inevitably be affected and become more prone to fluctuations.

As soon as these words came out.

Xiao Xiao cried even louder.

The second sister put down her teacup, stepped forward, and patted her head reassuringly.

It feels like I'm taking care of a small animal.

He glared at Wu Wang helplessly.

Tell that bastard to stop making fun of people.

Wu Wang then shrugged and said, "Okay, okay, I'm done playing."

“I can bypass the restrictions of the [Silver Needle of the Selfless] item and transfer the curse on you directly to me.”

"As for how I exorcise the curse from myself, don't ask. It would be impolite to ask too many questions."

"The question you should be considering now is whether there will be any side effects from the curse exorcism."

There's really no way to get around it.

The main reason is that Wu Wang genuinely wanted to die.

Therefore, in a sense, it also satisfies the restriction conditions of "the selfless man's silver needle".

Willingly accept the transfer of the curse.

He looked the white-haired little girl up and down, her face streaked with tears.

He added in detail: "Although the game 'Spirit Disaster' has the word 'game' in it, it can't really be quantified like a game."

"Your body and appearance are cursed, gradually transforming you into a child."

"If the curse is removed, the reverse aging will definitely stop."

"But how to turn it back to its original state is another story."

His gaze gradually turned cold.

It was as if the person in front of me wasn't a cute, cuddly little girl.

It was a human specimen.

"If it's an instantaneous change, considering the rapid growth of bones and the changes in elasticity of the skin and even flesh in a short period of time..."

"Humans are not clay; they have pain receptors."

"Believe me, it will hurt you to death."

"I hope you are fully prepared before you receive treatment."

"Otherwise, if you die from the aftereffects, I can only provide a full range of funeral services. I can't bring you back from the grave by reviving the dead."

"I play with the Divine Stele."

Upon hearing Wu Wang's words, Xiao Xiao stopped sobbing.

While a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes, he was also deeply shocked.

Did you also consider Yan Shuangying's physical recovery after the curse was removed?
The same applies to dungeons.

This big shot always manages to see things from a perspective that ordinary people can't understand.

But since that's what they've said...

That proves that there really is a way to use the "Selfless One's Silver Needles".

As for how he himself should deal with the curse.

Even without Wu Wang saying anything, Xiao Xiao wouldn't bother to inquire.

She hasn't lived enough.

How could someone relentlessly pursue a powerful player after their true identity has already been exposed?

Isn't this courting death?

"Okay! Thank you, Boss Yan! I'll go contact the two uncles right away to find some items from the warehouse to prevent aftereffects!"

"If the warehouse doesn't have it, we may need to prepare it temporarily, and we may not be able to handle it immediately today."

"Please, Mr. Yan and this young lady, stay here in the capital... no! Please make yourselves at this villa!"

"I'll cover all your expenses in the capital!"

Xiao Xiao happily took out her phone to send a message.

The changes in their emotions are just as rapid as those of a child.

It seems the curse has had a profound impact.

Wu Wang couldn't help but ask, "A warehouse? A temporary preparation? How do you plan to prepare it?"

Xiao Xiao dismissed this, saying, "Acquisitions! Many players aren't actually as wealthy as you think."

"As long as the price is high enough, healing items are not necessarily out of stock."

"I still have several hundred million in pocket money left from my dad, which should be enough."

After all, dealing with the aftereffects only requires consideration of treatment and recovery.

This type of item is much easier to find than items for exorcising curses.

She was confident that she would be ready within a day or two!
"Pocket money? Hundreds of millions? What wicked capitalists!" Wu Wang silently picked up his teacup and handed it to Xiao Xiao, saying fiercely, "Add water! Add water for me! I want to fully enjoy the service of this rich young lady!"

While adding water, Xiaoxiao continued, "By the way, Boss Yan, I'll get you the props your friend needs right away."

After saying that, she put the teacup down.

Looking in Wu Xiaoyou's direction, he began taking items out of his backpack.

Wu Wang's previous excuse was that he was helping a friend find items to eliminate the side effects of equipment.

It just so happens that he has brought a girl with him when he came to the capital to visit him.

Xiao Xiao naturally assumed that Wu Xiaoyou was the one who needed the props.

Just as she was rummaging through the props.

Wu Wang suddenly felt someone was sending him a message.

It was sent directly through the friends list in the game "Spirit Disaster".

He subconsciously flipped through it.

Unexpectedly, the content surprised him.

It’s a message from Xiezhi.

The other person's tone was full of anxiety and concern.

"Brother Yan! Quickly go up to the Hall of Justice in the square and take a look!"

"You have a bounty on your head!"

"The bounty amount is soaring into the top ten on the list!"
