Chapter 69: Oh, Met a Star
Oh, Met a Star
Face is a bit cold.
Seems like... it's raining?
Consciousness gradually returned.
In the ears is the noisy rain, at the tip of the nose is the moist air, facing is the cold wind.
Cheng Shi slowly opened his eyes and found that the water mist was lingering in front of him, and the clouds were filled.
Sure enough, it's raining.
Light rain.
Drizzling, slow and not urgent.
He didn't care at all that the drizzle wet his hair and clothes, nor did he rush to take out an umbrella from the portable space, but looked around for the first time.
Here seems to be on the hillside of a high mountain, looking around, all are mountain peaks.
Green and lush, vegetation is lush, the long-lost breath of the wilderness made Cheng Shi feel refreshed.
Natural scenery, it is really a purifier of negative emotions.
Just when he opened his hands and embraced the raindrops falling into his arms towards the sky, his teammates opened their eyes one by one.
"Ho, brother, what are you doing, praising who?"
"Wild?"
"Ah cough cough... cough cough cough..."
"Humidity is too high, air pressure is very low, heavy rain, coming."
"Although it's the first time to meet, I have to disturb everyone's elegance of enjoying the rain and tell everyone a not-so-good news:
Our portable space has been locked."
"?"
Cheng Shi was stunned, suddenly retracted his hands, and his consciousness began to hook the portable space.
However, the space that could be accessed at will in the past, now, has no response!
"!!!"
What this person said is true, the portable space was actually locked!
Really lived long enough to see, every time a new problem, the problems are not the same.
Most of the trials of 【Annihilation】 are survival, or even life-and-death escape.
In His trial field, there are all kinds of survival desperate situations, so players who have experienced many beatings will prepare some survival tools on purpose.
The portable space is not big, not enough to pack all household items, so more and more people like Cheng Shi who "sharpen the gun before the battle" are appearing.
But didn't expect, there are policies above, and there are countermeasures below.
This trial actually sealed the portable space.
This is something never heard of.
Cheng Shi glanced at the ring on his hand, and secretly felt lucky in his heart.
Fortunately, he didn't put it in the portable space because he was reluctant to part with this semi-divine artifact, otherwise he would go far.
The things in his own space can only be said to be icing on the cake for the role of the trial, and losing them has far less impact on Cheng Shi than making his strength plummet or needing to die.
And this is also what Cheng Shi has been guarding against.
Any external object is not as real as becoming stronger himself.
Of course, except for being able to hug a dead thigh.
"Fuck, for real?"
A male player tried for a long time, and after taking out nothing, cursed and wiped the rain on his face
Although his expression was ugly, he was not desperate.
Clearly, this person also had some confidence.
But as for the others...
Cheng Shi rubbed the rainwater off his face, incidentally rubbing his expression into something more terrified, then through the gaps between his fingers, his small eyes quickly peeked at the others.
There were five teammates in total; excluding the gentleman from just now, there were three other men and one woman.
The expressions of these people were all different.
An old man with white hair kept coughing, his hands resting on his knees with his head slightly lowered, his entire face twisted into a ball, showing neither joy nor sorrow.
But Cheng Shi noticed that his stance was very stable; even while coughing like that, his feet were rooted in the mud soaked by the rain without moving an inch.
A young man carrying a backpack frowned slightly and spread his clothes to protect his bag, looking as if there was something inside that couldn't get wet.
Cheng Shi glanced lightly, guessing from the outline of the bag that it was probably some kind of weapon, and the short, multiple kind at that.
The one who reminded everyone was a burly man with sharp facial features; his keen, spirited eyes and powerful arms showed he was clearly a damage-dealing type of profession.
There were thick calluses from a bow on both his hands; if he guessed correctly, he should be a hunter.
As for the last one...
Tsk, a bit eye-catching.
It was a thin and weak girl with pink hair.
Her bright eyes flickered, and she looked around with a smile on the corners of her mouth, seemingly unconcerned that her personal space had been sealed.
Cheng Shi's gaze quickly swept over her face, and he felt she looked familiar, as if he had seen her somewhere before.
But because the action of rubbing his face and looking was too fast, he didn't have time to think carefully.
But unexpectedly, the next second, someone called out her name.
"You are... Tao Yi!?"
Who?
Cheng Shi looked at the girl with some astonishment, only to see that everyone was looking at her with slight surprise.
The pink-haired girl squinted and smiled, revealing a playful smile like a little fox.
"Hello everyone, I am Tao Yi."
Hearing this voice as crisp as an oriole, Cheng Shi finally remembered who this familiar-looking girl was.
A new-generation actress who debuted as a singer, had no fame after singing for seven or eight years, but became famous all over the country because she guest-starred as a little maid in a court comedy for a friend—Tao Yi.
This court comedy was called "Spring Breeze Is Inevitable," which tells the twisted ethical love story of an extremely outrageous passerby girl who, by mistake, was forced to marry into a prince's mansion and eventually fell in love with the prince who cross-dressed as a woman.
Tao Yi played the maid of the vicious female cousin who had a crush on the heroine.
Because she was quirky and always helped with the wrong things, the whole plot basically ended up helping the hero and heroine win.
So the audience's favorability toward her skyrocketed, even surpassing the heroine at one point, becoming the most popular female character in the show.
Cheng Shi never watched TV dramas, but he couldn't stand his colleagues talking nonsense every day, so he knew about such a person after hearing it over and over.
Watching the star on the TV screen appear beside him, he couldn't help but sigh:
She is even thinner than the person in the photos.
Tsk tsk, the world is truly wonderful; one can even meet a big star in a trial.
"Damn, it's the real person. I almost didn't recognize you after you dyed your hair pink. It's a pity that your acting career just started, and this ghost game descended..."
The man who recognized Tao Yi kept chattering, as if he had endless words in his mouth.
"Uh, actually, I prefer singing to acting."
"So... you are probably a singer?"
"Uh, I am a mage."
"?"
Hearing this, Cheng Shi couldn't help it and burst out laughing.
My friend, if you hit on someone like this, I'm afraid you won't have a chance at anything you want to do.
Tao Yi also squinted and smiled, pointing at herself:
"Let me reintroduce myself, Tao Yi, 【Life】, Mage, 1783."
Tao Yi, 【Life】, Mage, 1783
The man who was chatting was still rambling:
"That's such a coincidence, I'm also a mage, and I'm also an actor.
I have loved the starry sky and science fiction since I was a child, and I became addicted to it when I grew up. After entering the entertainment industry, I always wanted to act in a sci-fi film in my heart, but unfortunately, I missed the casting time for the "Three-Body" crew, so I could only join some small crews to accumulate experience first.
I have played the third male lead in many dramas, the one with the most views is called "Amazing Starship Immortal Emperor," I played the Demon Realm General Zhu Chao in it, and my ranking on the funny character list is quite high. Tao Yi, have you seen it..."
As this guy's speaking speed got faster and faster, everyone's expressions became stranger and stranger.
Cheng Shi's face was almost stiff from holding back; he really wanted to squat down and see if the soles of his shoes were worn through.
Too awkward.
Brother, I don't think you are suitable for acting in "Three-Body," go act in "Three-Body Syndrome," I guarantee you can play the male lead!
Perhaps seeing that everyone's expression was a bit constipated, this chattering Demon Realm General Zhu Chao finally realized that his introduction was in the wrong place. He laughed awkwardly twice, touched his head and said:
"Sorry, sorry, I was too excited to see Tao Yi. My name is Su Yi Da, 【Existence】, Mage, 1864."
As soon as the words fell, Cheng Shi raised his eyebrows in surprise.
This Demon Realm General is lying.
Su Yi Da, 【Existence】, Mage, 1864
