End of Mystery

Chapter 254 God's Shepherd (8,500 words)

"Anxi City really deserves to be a T0-level big city..."

When Gao Lie crossed the misty sky and arrived at the platform of Anxi City under countless strange gazes, Xiao Xiao gazed into the distance and couldn't help sighing.

Heimen City sometimes gave him the impression that it was too far-fetched, but now, just after arriving in Anxi City, he felt a sincere emotion.

The boundless buildings, bustling crowds, and even various real things that he had never seen in Heimen City before, all impacted Xiao Xiao's vision, and even made him feel a sense of depression.

A city that is too large has its own will and weight, which can overwhelm people and make them want to submit subconsciously.

The will of the city here does not even refer to those things that live in the spiritual world, but simply refers to the temperament of this city, a huge city, itself.

"Brother Xiao, where are we going?"

Ruan Ruan carried her backpack on her back, and when her two short legs moved, there was a rattling sound.

Following Xiao Xiao's side, she looked like a junior high school girl who followed to school, and she behaved a bit like a junior high school girl. Looking at this huge city, she was a little dazed for a while, and turned her head to ask Xiao Xiao.

"The destination has been reached, hasn't it?"

Xiao Xiao comforted her, looked up and looked forward, and said with a smile: "We are guests, and Anxi City is the host, so why should we think about these things, they can't even know how to treat guests?"

"Look at our Black Gate City. Although it is a little small, the envoys from Dante's organization are very polite..."

"..."

Ruan Ruan opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer.

However, it was as Xiao Xiao said, when she and Xiao Xiao walked out of the Gaolie platform and looked out, they quickly saw a high-raised sign in front of them, which was extremely eye-catching among the bustling crowd. .

There are only three words on the sign: Black Gate City.

Holding the sign high was a young man wearing rimless glasses and a dark suit.

Next to him was a black, extended version of an expensive car, and four cars were parked in front of and behind the car. The five cars formed a convoy, and they stopped at the station in awe-inspiring way. out of the way.

"Is this for us?"

Ruan Ruan glanced at it, and couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

But Xiao Xiao has already moved forward. In the real world, there are many tourists traveling between Heimen City and Anxi City, but I am afraid that no one can afford to directly use the three words "Heimen City" to represent it.

What's more, he and Ruanruan came to Gaolie, and there were only the two of them.

"President Xiao? Ms. Ruanruan?"

The young man holding the sign saw Xiao Xiao and Ruan Ruan coming over, and immediately put down the sign. As a stranger, he should have recognized Xiao Xiao at the first sight. However, he still asked politely.

Then he bowed and shook hands with Xiao Xiao, straightened his back and shook hands with Ruan Ruan, then got up and helped them open the car door, the convoy started slowly, heading towards the huge and almost endless Anxi City ahead Drive into the city.

"Anxi City is so formal..."

Ruan Ruan was a little surprised by this performance.

It is not uncommon for people from different lands to come and go with each other, but it is rare to talk about ostentation in this way.

In the eyes of ordinary people, foreigners are originally a group of psychopaths living in a self-fantasy world, and their usual behavior is really a bit like neuropathy.

But An'xi City didn't feel this way at all. When Xiao Xiao and Ruan Ruan came here, they were like distinguished guests. They were picked up by the convoy, with an open road in front and bodyguards in the back. They were serious and very formal.

"Regular what?"

But listening to Ruan Ruan's emotion, Xiao Xiao was thinking silently in his heart: "Anxi City is really a bit exaggerated, how can it be as down-to-earth as when we entertained guests in Heimen City?"

"that……"

After getting into the car, the atmosphere was silent, and Ruan Ruan couldn't hold back anymore. After looking at it for a while, he said to the young man driving in front: "Your information card of the Heart Knight..."

"Don't worry."

The young man who was driving didn't wait for Ruanruan to finish speaking, and said softly: "President Xiao, Ms. Ruanruan, I'm only responsible for picking up people. Afterwards, our president of Anxi City or Lord Knight will come to talk to you .”

Ruan Ruan was startled for a moment, and had no choice but to stop asking questions.

Xiao Xiao seemed a little curious, and said, "You seem to be not bad, but you are just a pick-up?"

"It's not even close."

The young man who drove the car said politely: "In Anxi City, besides the president, there are three big knights and thirty-six little knights, and I am only the last one among the little knights."

"The task I received this time is to come and pick up the two of you to rest at the hotel, and arrange all the daily life and travel for the two of you in Anxi City. As for other business matters, our president may come to discuss with President Xiao in person. , or one of the three great knights of spades, Yin Qing, and clover... After all, the two of you are equivalent to sending our heart knight home. Those who are not qualified to receive this information card..."

"..."

"Three great knights, thirty-six little knights?"

When Ruan Ruan heard it at the beginning, she couldn't help being slightly surprised.

Sure enough, it is worthy of Anxi City...

When Black Gate City was at its strongest, there was only one president and twelve knights, while Anxi City not only had a large number of knights, but even had two levels of knights, big and small.

Normally, if the points reached more than 1,000, and they took the lead in resolving the B-level distortion incident, they would be able to obtain the knight contract.

The great thing about Anxi City is that they not only have a large number of knights, but even selected four outstanding knights from these knights.

Of course, from the number of their knights, it can be seen how rich the experience of Anxi City in dealing with abnormal things is, and it has formed a very large-scale and extremely professional team.

And when he heard the second half of his sentence, when he mentioned the red heart knight, Ruan Ruan couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

Most of the brave people have grumpy personalities, and grumpy people often make decisions quickly, but they don't know what to do after they are done.

She thought about it carefully, and it seemed that she had no choice but to kill the opponent's Red Heart Knight, but now, knowing the respect of the four knights in the city of Anxi, and thinking that such a person died under her hands, she felt a little bit sad. empty.

Xiao Xiao, on the other hand, sat next to Ruan Ruan, and seemed to feel the change in her mood.

He patted her on the head with a smile, and then said to the young man driving in front: "Yeah, the death of your big red heart knight is really not worth it..."

"It also just speaks to the twist and horror of the mysterious source."

"But you don't need to be too sad. I have already avenged your red heart knight. We are all foreigners, so you don't need to thank me too much."

"..."

The young man driving the other side was silent for a moment, nodded, and stopped talking.

Ruan Ruan looked at Xiao Xiao's side face with some surprise, and found that after he said these words, his expression was still very calm.

I secretly admired it in my heart, but the guilty conscience at the beginning was indeed dispelled a lot.

yes……

Black Gate City has no grievances or enmities with you. It was your Red Heart Knight who was ordered by the mysterious source to trouble us first. Then we have no other choice, so what if we kill her?

Now we abide by the agreement between the strangers and came here to return her information card, which is very polite.

In a city as big as Anxi City, doesn't it even make sense?

Moreover……

She took another deep look at Xiao Xiao's sharp-edged side face, her heart gradually became stable, and she even lay down on the seat, ready to take a good rest:

"I brought such a big crazy president here, am I still afraid that you will make trouble for me?"

"..."

This convoy brought Xiao Xiao and Ruan Ruan to the center of Anxi City. In a towering building, rooms have been prepared in advance. The courteous waiters and the strict security outside the building all show that the grade here is not low. However, apart from the little knight Zhou Zhen who sent the two of them over, the president of Anxi City, or the three One of the great knights still hasn't shown up.

"I just said that Anxi City is not as good as our Black Gate City?"

Xiao Xiao walked around the room, looked at the curious one who came to find Ruan Ruan, and said with a smile: "We entertained the envoys of Dante's organization, and we still know how to manage a meal at night!"

Before the words were finished, the little knight who drove them over had already brought the hotel manager over, and said politely: "President Xiao and Ms. Ruan Ruan, you can dine on the fifth floor of the hotel, or call them to the guest room Dine."

"I have asked the president for instructions, and he said that Mr. Xiao and Ms. Ruanruan have been exhausted, and they will take a break today."

"Wait until tomorrow, he will host a banquet for the two of you."

"..."

Ruan Ruan immediately glanced at Xiao Xiao, with a questioning look in his eyes.

Xiaoxiao sent these people away with a smile, and then said to Ruanruan: "It's still not as good as our Heimen City, at least we entertained them personally..."

"When the Lin Bo team organized by Dante arrived in Heimen City, they ate box lunches for the first few days, right? Jiajia even slept on the bar sofa for two days before they booked a hotel for them..."

Ruan Ruan couldn't help thinking: "But what's the president's strange comparison?"

But in any case, since it comes, it will be safe.

Ruan Ruan was a little surprised by the thoughtful and considerate arrangements in Anxi City. Not only did she have all-you-can-eat guest room dinners, but she could even take a bubble bath. The water was put in place by a special person. She gradually became more at ease and happy. However, although Xiao Xiao said so, he really felt a little strange in his heart. He always felt that the things arranged by Anxi City were meticulous, but he always felt that there would be some problems in his heart, but he didn't say much. , just let it go, and let the other party make arrangements for him for the time being.

After dinner, someone knocked on the door. It was the little knight who came to pick him up during the day: "Mr. Xiao has just arrived in Anxi City, do you want to take a stroll in the city?"

There is even a shopping service?

Xiao Xiao was a little surprised, and agreed. When she called Ruan Ruan, she was not interested. Bubble baths are more fun.

So Xiao Xiao followed the little knight out the door, still accompanied by the motorcade, and let him walk in this bustling city. Soon, he saw many things in Anxi City that were different from those in Heimen City. same place.

The background of Heimen City has always been chaotic, cruel, and violent, otherwise it would not be able to raise a monster like the Hell Legion.

But Anxi City gave Xiao Xiao the feeling that it was orderly, peaceful, orderly, and safe. Xiao Xiao was walking on the street, and even saw an abnormal fluctuation of mental power suddenly appeared in a certain place three streets away, but As a stranger, the little knight who accompanied him ignored him and ordered the convoy to approach. Therefore, Xiao Xiao saw a group of people in black robes appearing beside the deformed creature in a very short time. Beside him, he solved it easily, and then disappeared into the crowd.

Even the onlookers seemed to be surprised. The policeman on duty even offered a cigarette to a man in a black robe.

Xiao Xiao asked curiously: "Can the aborigines of Anxi City see deformed creatures?"

"Of course not."

The little knight said with a smile: "But they know that we are protecting them, so they don't mind being surprised."

"Whenever there is a distortion event in the rest of the city, we will always know the first time, because the Security Office will pass the information to us."

"..."

Xiao Xiao didn't ask any more questions, and let him take him to see many places before going back to rest.

"President Xiao, if you have any curiosity, you can ask me. Not only tonight, but tomorrow, if you have something you want to see, I am also willing to be your guide at any time."

The little knight looked very polite when they parted.

Xiao Xiao also smiled and agreed, then turned and went upstairs.

If you want to see something, why bother to wander around the city, why should someone take it with you?

Of course, since we have come to Anxi City, it is very necessary to know about Anxi City...

Therefore, Xiao Xiao who turned around and went upstairs did not go back to the room, but went directly to the top floor. The building he lived in can be said to be one of the tallest buildings in Anxi City. To the clouds floating above the neon.

Since it is high, the vision is naturally good.

Xiao Xiao took a deep breath, and leaned against the railing, his body gradually split into three eyes.

As the bones turned around, everything in this huge and boundless city began to be pulled into his field of vision suddenly and frantically.

The streets, the crowds, the buildings, the faces with different expressions, and the things that happened in this city, whether it is on the surface or in private.

Whether it is reported on TV, or hidden in the bottom of my heart by many people.

At this moment, with the opening of Xiao Xiao's vision, everything, like some kind of pure information flow, was reflected in his spiritual ocean.

"Shua!"

But also at this moment, around the huge Anxi City, suddenly there were several eyes, and they were startled at the same time, they crossed the streets and neon signs, passed through the buildings and crowds, and came to Xiao Xiao in an instant.

"Is the reaction so fast?"

The moment these gazes appeared, Xiao Xiao's gaze suddenly withdrew.

Nothing could be seen from his expression, and even the three eyes of the seer were quietly retracted into the body.

He just smiled, nodded slightly in the direction of the gazes, and then returned to his room with a calm expression and light steps.

"……call!"

The whole city is still prosperous, but in the perception of some people, the moment their eyes, or spiritual power, intertwined with Xiao Xiao, the whole world seems to have stagnated for half a minute. They saw that Xiao Xiao had returned to the room, but the spirit But he didn't dare to relax for a long time.

After a long time, someone whispered: "What does this lunatic want to do?"

"It's not enough to walk around the city for so long, and you want to see it yourself?"

"Or, he still doesn't quite believe what he just saw?"

"..."

"It was allowed by the president, so it doesn't seem like a big deal to let him see..."

"You can't think like that!"

"Although he has already come to the city of Anxi, and he can already confirm that he can hunt and kill the mysterious source, relying on the power of the mysterious guide in Heimen City..."

Another answered in a low voice: "But anyone who has stepped into the taboo level should not be underestimated, let alone he has done so many crazy things?"

"Heh, the name of a person, the shadow of a tree, this guy's reputation is really terrifying..."

"..."

In the whispered discussion, there was no result.

In the end, he could only sigh in a low voice: "In any case, he can't do anything in An'xi City, and he doesn't seem to have any intention of doing anything. Wait until tomorrow, and everything will be easy to talk about!"

...

...

Returning the card is embarrassing.

Since he came to return the card, it meant that someone from the other party had died in his hands. Whether it was a vendetta or an accident, his mood would not be any better.

Therefore, envoys are usually sent to pay back cards between various organizations. Even if a certain president comes to return the card in person, the receiver will not be too polite, or take the card and leave directly. , or speak fiercely, and directly agree on the next match.

But this time Xiao Xiao seemed to be different from the others.

An'an City treated him and Ruan Ruan seriously, and was very polite, but none of the real big shots in An'an City showed up.

If he came here with an apology in the capacity of returning the information card, then Xiao Xiao should thank Anxi City for his hospitality.

If you come here as the president to communicate, it seems that the meeting will lose its temper again.

However, Ruan Ruan is young and a strong person, so he is not so thoughtful, and Xiao Xiao actually stayed at home for four years after high school, and he also doesn't know much about these etiquette. After sorting it out, I don't want to.

Just let the city of An'an arrange everything until the next afternoon, someone came to pick them up and invited them to the dinner party held by the president of the city of An'an.

Xiao Xiao and Ruan Ruan didn't even know how to change their clothes. After all, the only ones who knew about this in Heimen City were Ling Ping and Yang Jia, who had red eyes. Cool, get in the car.

Another convoy, with a car in front and a car guard in the back, passed through the streets and arrived at a certain green garden-like courtyard in the city of Anxi. Invited, went straight into the courtyard.

"Bought..."

"It was bought again..."

"...In this courtyard, all the bodyguards, servants, and housekeepers were bought?"

"..."

Along the way, Xiao Xiao looked at it carefully, and couldn't help being a little surprised.

Many people from other lands spent their points to buy aborigines to work for them, including starlets, but Xiao Xiao was surprised to find that everyone in this courtyard was bought.

The number is more than a hundred?

Even if it's the cheapest one, one hundred points per person, it's probably more than 10,000 points, right?

I wasn't surprised by these points, after all, 10,000 points wasn't much to me, but buying so many aborigines as my servants was indeed a little surprising.

"President Xiao, please come in!"

In the middle of the courtyard, in front of an exquisite Chinese-style wooden door, the steward who led the way opened the door respectfully: "President An is already waiting for you inside."

Xiao Xiao nodded politely to him, pushed the door open, and saw the old man in a gorgeous robe opposite the huge round table in the room at a glance.

The room is very big, and the round table is also big, but there is only one person sitting, that is the old man, even the little knight who picked up Xiao Xiao and the others yesterday, just stood aside, serving like a servant, and that The old man was wearing a gorgeous robe like a medieval priest, and his face already had deep wrinkles, but he was in good spirits. When Xiao Xiao came in, a pair of deep eyes immediately looked up. For a moment, Xiao Xiao felt as if he was facing a huge black hole at close range.

In Xiao Xiao's mind, the information that Mr. Ye gave him could not help appearing.

The old president of the Alien Association in Anxi City was originally surnamed An, but no one has called him by his name for many years now.

Everyone only respects him as Mr. An.

He has been in the seat of the Alien Association in Anxi City for at least forty years.

He is one of the oldest and most mysterious strangers. On the forum, many people speculate that he may belong to the earliest batch of strangers.

The next day, I met this legendary stranger, and this person hosted a banquet to treat me politely. It seems that this courtesy is enough...

However, Xiao Xiao was a little puzzled. There were three great knights and thirty-six little knights in Anxi City. Why did he see only one president and one little knight left?

"President Xiao, please sit down."

While Xiao Xiao was thinking about it, that Mr. An had already opened his mouth in a low voice and nodded towards Xiao Xiao.

Although he is old, his voice is very loud, and he said with a smile: "Don't dislike being shabby, old man, I haven't entertained guests like this for many years."

Xiao Xiao smiled and sat down opposite him, softly and cautiously, glanced at the old man opposite, and then sat down next to Xiao Xiao.

"Are there just a few of us?"

Xiao Xiao glanced around, and said directly: "I heard people say that the people of Anxi City are strong..."

"There are indeed many people in Anxi City, but they also bear many responsibilities."

Mr. An said with a smile: "We foreigners are of the same kind. Naturally, we have to advance together. In the surrounding cities, no matter whether they encounter aberrations, disputes, or threats, they will report to Anxi City. Ask for help, so our people have to leave from time to time, or help them solve problems, or mediate, and sometimes use force to suppress some things that are not good for the group of foreigners, but it is rare to get everything together, especially recently, and Catch up with troubled times..."

Xiao Xiao listened, then suddenly looked at him, and said, "Anxi City is so good?"

"Why didn't Anxi City help when our Black Gate City was attacked by the hell organization and was devastated by the Rotten Kingdom?"

"..."

As if he didn't expect Xiao Xiao's question to be so straightforward, the old man in a gorgeous robe was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said, "Don't you know the reason?"

"I used to be an old friend with your old president, Kuang Juemin. It's a pity that we didn't agree with each other and finally parted ways. Since then, he has refused all my assistance..."

"..."

"The co-author is the old president?"

Xiao Xiao thought to himself, this old president has helped him a lot, but the trouble he caused is not small...

However, this also shows that besides dying in the Heimen fog incident, the old president actually had many other choices?

He smiled and said: "Although I have inherited many things from our old president, I haven't met him personally, so I am not familiar with the previous things."

"You inherited a lot from him?"

The old president, An, looked at Xiao Xiao with a smile, and said, "Including his naive thoughts?"

Xiao Xiao remained silent for a while, looked up at him, and slowly repeated: "Childish?"

"yes."

The old president, An, paused slightly, met Xiao Xiao's gaze, and said, "I didn't talk about him behind his back while he was dead. In fact, I also said it when he was alive."

Xiao Xiao's expression seemed a little surprised: "Why?"

This Mr. An couldn't help laughing, but he didn't answer directly, but said to Xiao Xiao: "President Xiao has become very famous recently, and Heimen City has also performed very well recently, but what do you think about our Anxi City? Sample?"

"very good."

Xiao Xiao was silent for a moment before he said: "I haven't seen many cities, only Heimen City and Yedi City, but compared with these two cities, Anxi City is the largest and most orderly city I have ever seen. .”

"In your place, it seems that there is no room for abnormal creatures to survive."

"Aborigines and foreigners can cooperate and coexist like old friends."

"And the power of foreigners in Anxi City is the greatest I have ever seen. Even the convoy we came over can control the opening and closing of traffic lights at will, as if the entire administrative organization is already serving you. ..."

"By the way, the hotel we stayed in yesterday didn't cost money, did it?"

"..."

Hearing Xiao Xiao's words, Mr. An couldn't help laughing: "That's the property of Anxi City, and of course it doesn't cost money."

Ruan Ruan, who was waiting to return the information card, couldn't help but widen his eyes slightly: "When did Brother Xiao see these phenomena in Anxi City?"

"Yes, these are exactly what I want to tell Chairman Xiao."

Mr. An laughed, and said to Xiao Xiao: "Kuang Juemin is my old friend. He is a stubborn person. He has always insisted on his idea of ​​escaping, and has always wanted to get rid of nightmares, but who can say that this world is really Is it a nightmare?"

Xiao Xiao was not in a hurry to answer, but just looked at him seriously.

Mr. An said softly: "The awakening of foreigners often has such a process: first they think this world is fake, they think it's just a nightmare, they want to escape, and they want to find the so-called reality."

"However, people always have to recognize the status quo. What kind of strangers, aborigines?"

"It's nothing more than seeing things differently. I just paranoidly believe that what I see is true, and what others see is false..."

"However, only a fool is stubborn enough to prove himself right."

"Whether what the aborigines see is true or false, what does it matter to us?"

"..."

He spoke slowly, always looking into Xiao Xiao's eyes, it seemed that his words were very sincere, or in other words, beyond doubt.

"Foreigners are the chosen ones."

He said to Xiao Xiao seriously, every word was very slow: "We have the power to dominate and control everything, so the weirdness or distortion of this world is actually not important."

"The important thing is that if we want to, then we can transform the world into what we want."

"We can have the most supreme power in this city, and we can transform everything that is unreasonable in this city."

"Even when Kuang Juemin was alive, the will of the city that he hated the most, the mysterious source that affected his cognition and changed his behavior, was actually not unchangeable. He only said that he was unwilling to be manipulated, and he was unwilling to live as a puppet. , but when we have the power to reversely affect the mysterious source, appease it, feed it, and let the mysterious source exist in the form we want, then who is the puppet and who is controlling it?"

"..."

"ah?"

Ruan Ruan was taken aback immediately, and looked up in disbelief.

Some things in the old president's words made it hard for her to imagine: Reverse control of the mysterious source?

She also knows the strength of Anxi City, but it seems that she heard some amazing phenomena from Mr. An's words?

Rest City even thinks that they already have the power to control the entire city?

... Or maybe, it's not just him who thinks so, but they have already done it?

"If so..."

Xiao Xiao pondered for a moment, looked at Mr. An, and said, "Then what do you think you are?"

"I don't want to say something like god or monster."

Mr. An stared intently at Xiao Xiao, and said slowly, "But I want to say that we have absolute advantages and power over this city."

"If reality is regarded as a game, then we have the ability to modify the game programmatically. We have absolute control over reality, and we are the masters of the game."

"A master, why would you flee from your own home?"

"..."

"..."

Xiao Xiao easily understood what Mr. An said, he was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "But, have you ever heard such a saying..."

"Those things that parasitized on this city and gave us strength are actually outsiders..."

"They are devouring the world, and have already devoured most of it."

"So, if one day, they really completely devour the world, what will we masters of the city face?"

"..."

When this question was asked, Xiao Xiao looked calm, and did not refute or object, but asked sincerely.

He doesn't doubt everything that Anxi City has done, but he just asked this question. Before, Yang Jia also got a glimpse of these secrets, but she firmly supported Noah's plan.

Mr. An's answer was beyond Xiao Xiao's expectation: "I have heard about this idea from Dante's organization a long time ago."

"It's just that we are the chosen ones, so we have this power, just like the power holders and financial groups in the world, the world chose them, so they can be superior..."

"They can feel at ease in the past, why can't we?"

"Or, President Xiao can think about those churches..."

"..."

He paused for a moment before speaking slowly: "Because of the existence of God, the church has absolute power over the secular world."

"We are like believers, shepherding the whole world for God."

"Then, it's enough to make sure we can graze the world. Who sits in God's place, and what does it matter to us?"
