Escape

The boy looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old, with yellow skin, black eyes, and white hair styled in very exaggerated dreadlocks.

His face was covered in black paint, obscuring his original features.

She was wearing a futuristic silver bodysuit with a red triangular pattern on the chest.

Xiao Fan then realized that the girl above was standing on the boy's shoulders.

At this moment, Blade Shadow and the others also jumped down one after another.

The girl jumped down from the boy's shoulders.

"Is anyone else here?" The girl looked at Xiao Fan and his group, and only then did Xiao Fan notice that her face was also covered in the same black paint as the boys'.

"There is none left."

"Let's get out of here right away."

"Leave? How do I leave?"

As Xiao Fan was speaking, he saw the boy squat down, and a hole appeared in front of them.

The boy was the first to crawl inside.

"It's a bit high down there, be careful." The girl said before crawling inside.

"Jiu Chen, what's going on? Who are these two? Should we go in or not?"

Amidst the Blade Shadow, the group all turned to look at Xiao Fan.

They still don't understand what's going on, why a human suddenly appeared while they were fighting the BOSS—no, two humans!

Who are these two people, players?

Xiao Fan didn't have time to explain to them that these two might be NPCs in the storyline.

Hearing the vibrations coming from the ground above, the Mechanical Overlord had clearly caught up!

Xiao Fan had no other choice

"Drill! Drill in quickly!"

The cave entrance is about two meters above the ground, which poses no difficulty for players.

After jumping down, Xiao Fan began to look around.

The walls, the floor, and the ceiling are all made of metal.

They are currently on a platform with a railway track in front of them.

On either side of the railway tracks were dark, bottomless tunnels.

Xiao Fan had only ever seen this scene in science fiction movies.

"Could this so-called Cyber City be located beneath the desert?" The more Xiao Fan thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

"I thought you wouldn't jump."

At this moment, the girl walked over and curiously looked at Xiao Fan and the others.

Blade Shadow and his companions quickly stood behind Xiao Fan, their eyes filled with surprise.

They had only seen other players in the game; this was the first time they had seen... a human in the game.

I feel a little lost.

Knowing that a dialogue was about to begin, Xiao Fan thought for a moment before speaking.

"Thank you both for saving my life."

Upon hearing this, the girl waved her hand. "No need to be polite, we are all Complete Human, helping each other is only right. By the way! My name is Shasha, this is my companion Dingding, we are from Dr. Ai Zone, what about you?"

Xiao Fan was stunned for a moment.

Since there's a storyline, why didn't the secret realm assign them identities?

Do I have to make this up myself?

Speechless.

Xiao Fan quickly organized the current information in his mind.

First and foremost is the identity of Complete Human.

Based on the Cyberpunk theme and the robots encountered earlier.

Xiao Fan guessed that there were probably several different types of people here.

In this scenario, robots and Complete Human are antagonistic, even irreconcilable.

This is evident from the fact that they were detected and eliminated by robots as soon as they appeared.

The girl, Shasha, also mentioned a Dr. Ai Zone.

In other words, even Complete Human are divided into many regions, but fortunately, Complete Human maintain friendly relations with each other.

Xiao Fan's best option now is to pretend to be a normal human from another region and follow the storyline with Sha Sha Ding Ding to get a way to deal with the Mechanical Overlord from them.

However, this would make it difficult for Xiao Fan to obtain complete information about Cyberpunk City.

After all, this damn Game System didn't give them any background story.

Xiao Fan pondered for a moment.

As the saying goes, when you're out in the world, you define your own identity.

"It's just a game, so it's understandable that it's not entirely rigorous, right?"

Thinking of this, Xiao Fan took a step forward, his face showing a hint of excitement.

"Hello, my name is Jiu Chen. These are my teammates: Blade Blade, Ox Ox, and my little brother... We are Space-Time Traveler from the future."

"The future! Space-Time Traveler?" Shasha's mind went blank for a moment.

"You're not from this time and space?" Dingding, the boy with dreadlocks behind them, looked at Xiao Fan and the others in shock.

The group of people behind him, including Blade Shadow, stared in disbelief at Xiao Fan's upright back.

Space-Time Traveler from the future?

You're really good at making things up!

That's why he's a master! He can just spout nonsense without batting an eye!

However, on the other hand...

You introduce yourself as Jiu Chen, but why do you introduce them as Blade Blade and Ox Ox...?

Does this sound good?

They want the complete ID too, okay?

Seeing that Sha Sha and Ding Ding didn't treat him like a lunatic, Xiao Fan knew that his identity was secure.

"That's right, we come from a future world five hundred years in the future. However... for some reason, we lost this period of history, so the Human Federation sent us here in a time machine to search for our lost history."

Blade Shadow: 666...

That's a true master! Putting aside their gaming skills, their storytelling ability is unmatched!

Shasha and Dingding exchanged a glance, unsure how to react.

Just then, a violent tremor came from above.

The Mechanical Overlord is still in pursuit!

Shasha glanced up and said, "It's not safe here. Let's go back to the Safe Zone."

As she spoke, she and Dingding ran towards the passage on the right side of the track.

"Be careful. Keep up, everyone."

Xiao Fan gave a word of advice, and everyone quickly followed.

The tunnel was unlit.

In the darkness, Xiao Fan didn't know how long they had been running, only vaguely sensing that they were constantly running downwards.

"So the Cyberpunk City really is underground," Xiao Fan thought.

"Aren't there any trains on these tracks?" one player asked tentatively.

He wasn't complaining about being tired; it was just too dark around him.

Every step I took felt like being swallowed by a dark behemoth, making me extremely uncomfortable.

"No, if we take the train, Yuan Yi will find out and send Captor to hunt us down."

Dingding's voice came from the darkness ahead.

Yuan Yi? Who is that?

Everyone was curious.

One player voiced the question that had been puzzling everyone.

Ahead, Shasha and Dingding remained silent.

They suddenly realized that these people came from five hundred years in the future and were unaware of the current stage of history.

A moment later, Shasha sound came from ahead.

"Yuan Yi the Mastermind Artificial Intelligence, and its will covers half the planet. Complete Human is its target. As soon as it discovers us, we will be eliminated."

Artificial Intelligence!

They had heard of the Blade Shadow.

The technological development of Blue Star is similar to that of the planet Earth. Before the arrival of the game, humanity had been developing Artificial Intelligence.

But they couldn't imagine that one day Artificial Intelligence would rule half the planet and even begin to wipe out real humans.

This is terrifying!

The player patted his chest and said, "Then let's skip the car and walk around the platform instead. At least it's safer."

The Captor —they sound like robots. In this secret realm, robots are their counter!

"Safe? You're kidding. Even if we go through the passageway, Yuan Yi will spot us. It's just that we can't escape on the train."

Xiao Fan and the others:...
