[Su Mingan (06:29): Lu Shu, Noel, please reply when you receive this message. 】
…
With a "click", Su Mingan finished replenishing the wheelchair's ammunition.
An hour had passed since he sent this message, and there was still no movement from Lu Shu and Noel.
…
[Luke (7:56): Lu Shu was also invaded? This intrusion mechanism is a little too unreasonable. 】
[Yamada Machichi (7:56): Should I not mock him for roasting sweet potatoes? Will he lose his mentality because of this and be taken advantage of...Shu Bao, Nuo Bao, come back quickly, I'll treat you to tropical flavored iced black tea, okay? 】
[Luna (7:57): I don’t know what happened to other parallel copies. If this disease cannot be recovered, we will lose many compatriots. 】
…
Su Mingan stretched out his right hand, and on his wrist, a blond male figure appeared.
Since Xiko went into hibernation, he changed to a new AI named "Ye Ya". After authenticating Asa's irises, Jeya also had the highest authority.
[Hello, Doctor. I am Yaya, and from today on, I will serve as your personal AI to provide you with services. 】Ye Ya showed a perfect smile:
[I have mastered all the information left by my predecessor "Xiko". Regarding the reason for the repeated time in the laboratory, this part of the information is in a sealed state and should only be known by the Dawn system. 】
"The Dawn System..." Su Mingan said.
The Dawn System should be the same as Xiko, spanning the two timelines from 72 years (Central City Laboratory) to 102 years (City of Measurement).
——Li Ming and Xi Ke, these two things have been working together to deceive him for a long time.
He didn't know whether to believe Liming or Xiko before. It turned out that the two had been colluding for a long time and were in the same group.
Including the Yaya in front of him, all his words and actions should be the instructions of Dawn.
What Xiko couldn't say, Ye Ya couldn't say either.
However, it doesn't matter, he just doesn't want to see Xiko, so he will change to Yaya. They are all tools to him.
…
He looked up - the long corridor in front of him had reached the end, and an iron door with a door valve stood directly opposite.
This is the entrance to the Central City Laboratory. Due to the blockade, no one has been entering or exiting.
"Uh-huh!"
He took out the knife and swung the amber knife forward forcefully. In an instant, a crack like broken glass extended forward.
…
[Active skill (condensation): The next attack will have a "space fragmentation" effect, additional slashing damage to the enemy in front of you, and a "destructive power" enhancement effect to the items in front of you. The strength of the effect is directly related to the player's spatial skill level. Cooling time is three minutes. 】
…
"Boom——!" Su Mingan took a step back, and strong linear vibrations destroyed the iron door. This skill is very effective for destroying buildings.
The iron door was destroyed, a blood-red warning light came on, and a team of laboratory guards arrived, only to see Su Ming'an slashing at the door with a knife.
"Doctor, are you... cutting down the door?" the guard captain called out. His name was Cheng Luohe, a middle-aged man holding a bright red sniper rifle.
He originally thought it was some inferior personality who came out to vandalize the door. He rushed over in a hurry, only to see the doctor sitting in a wheelchair and slashing at the door wildly.
Cheng Luohe could not describe his feelings when he saw this scene.
Sure enough, the Doctor went crazy a long time ago, and it's only now that his true colors are revealed.
"Don't worry about me." Su Mingan said casually and continued to hack the door.
"Whoa!" There was a crack in the iron door.
Neither iris authentication nor fingerprint authentication worked on this iron door, so he could only break in violently.
He slashed with knife after knife, cutting extremely seriously.
Gradually, many students learned that the doctor was going crazy and hacking at the door. Within three minutes, a bunch of people came around after hearing the news.
They stared at Su Mingan who was slashing at the door, and the scene fell into an unspeakable silence.
At this moment, they felt a sense of déjà vu - [This is the day that the doctor finally went crazy]
Dong Xu said softly: "Xu Dong, I told you to talk less. Doctors are driven crazy by your noise."
"It's none of my business." Xudong immediately put the blame away: "It must be you people who roll up the book every day, and you're dead, and you've made the doctor numb."
"You have the nerve to criticize me?" Dong Xu retorted: "What should I do now? Should I continue to let the doctor chop me down?"
"Let's cut it first, Dr. Tyra from the psychiatry department is already on the way." Xu Dong comforted.
Looking at Su Ming'an who was slashing the door frantically, their eyes showed some pity. The doctor's body is already weak, he coughs up blood at every turn, and now there's something wrong with his brain... Is this the twilight of a hero?
"Boom——!" The storm flew out, and Su Mingan activated the Amber Sword skill again. With a violent sound, the iron door "clicked" and fell open to the outside world——
The bright sunshine is shining, and the outside scene is enveloped in the light, faintly.
He was a little surprised. It turned out that he could really go out here.
So if he goes out now - will he reach Cataclysm Year 72?
He marches outward.
Brilliant light shone on his shoulders, and he broke into the warm sunshine of the outside world.
Ginkgo trees line both sides of the street. As far as the eye can see, the street is extremely empty, with only the cold wind blowing the fallen leaves and dancing wildly in the air.
The wheel of the wheelchair stepped on the withered yellow leaves, making a crisp "click" sound.
He turned around - what he saw was no longer a laboratory, but a ruined building, with no students staring at him inside.
He did not step into the 72nd year of the catastrophe at all, but returned to the city of measurement in the 102nd year of the catastrophe.
He once felt that this ruined building was "déjà vu" because it was the site of the laboratory.
"Dawn!" he shouted loudly: "I have something to ask you."
——Why is only the laboratory’s time stuck in 1972?
"Uh-huh."
In front of the gate, the image of Dawn emerged, with long snow-white hair pouring down like water.
Before he could ask, Li Ming immediately interrupted him: "——Don't ask!"
It suddenly rushed in front of him, its transparent hand stretched out and floated in front of his face, as if it wanted to cover his mouth: "Don't ask!"
Its expression was very similar to that of Hiko before, with an expression that refused to answer and was even afraid of his asking questions.
Su Ming'an raised his hand slightly, and held Ming Ming's transparent hand in the air.
He figured out that the reason why neither Liming nor Xiko allowed him to ask questions was because there was surveillance by [Tavi] here. Once he asks a question and reveals that he doesn't know a certain secret, [Tavi] will find out.
He had guessed before that there was a relatively balanced relationship between him, Liming, and Hewei. Once one of the parties made a mistake, the situation would change drastically, and even the whole game would be lost.
Last week, he revealed that he was not Aktor at the night meeting, and Dawn would be forced to kill him.
——It seems that the balanced relationship between the three can only be known at the end.
He had a premonition that if he persisted in asking Dawn questions now and revealed that he didn't know something, he would meet a similar death ending as the previous week.
He glanced at Li Ming, stopped asking questions, and drove the wheelchair towards the outer city.
…
【Lord God World】
"Draw a circle... Well, here is the head, here is the butterfly..."
On the street of the ancient town, Lin Yin was lying next to a teahouse, drawing candy figures on the whiteboard in his hand.
The golden candy gradually took shape. She took one look at the candy man who looked neither human nor ghost, and threw away the stick in her hand in anger.
"It's so difficult to draw!" she gritted her teeth.
She had given up on the idea of buying Lu Shu's candy figures on the street and wanted to learn to paint by herself. However, her painting skills were poor and her technique was distorted, and the things she painted were even uglier than Lu Shu's.
"Damn it, why can't I draw? Why can't I draw?" She became angry and hit the table. With a "click", the whole table was hammered in half by the strange force.
Seeing this, the casual players passing by on the street stayed three feet away.
The gap between adventure players and casual players is getting wider and wider. There have already been scenes of "the first player fighting against missiles alone" and "the first player killing thousands of mechanical armies alone". The scenes of gunfire washing the ground are too terrifying. , giving people a great shock.
——It turns out that adventure players have become this powerful?
——It has only been four months, and the number one player is already able to slaughter legions. So when the game ends in one year, will they be reduced to being massacred?
Seeing this, many people thought the situation was urgent and decided that the next world would begin to end. But more people are desperate enough to see the reality clearly - it seems that it is too late for them.
Just talking about the Ninth World, the combat power of a single mechanical army in it is between 200 and 1,000. They operate as a team, and killing one will attract a group. Even if the player follows Edward's resistance and chooses to massacre the relatively weak residents, he will not be able to escape the fate of being captured and executed in the end.
This is a vicious cycle. The boss-level combat power of the first world has turned into mobs that can be seen everywhere in the ninth world.
One-third of the world game process has passed, and classes have become almost fixed, making it difficult to change identities.
Many people even wailed on the forum, thinking that "powerful players should lead a group of weak players, otherwise weak players will have no place at all." Some even pointed the finger at the United Group, saying, "Your purpose is not for the survival of the vast majority of people. Really? Now that the top players on the list are powerful enough to slaughter legions, how are you going to protect our lives?"
"..."
Lin Yin closed his eyes.
She had known for a long time that the world was a mess. Desire, kindness, malice, jealousy, violence, madness...these things were all thrown into the world, making the world a mess.
Some ordinary people show nobility, while some people who think they are righteous show hypocrisy and ugliness. Kind people can turn into greedy evil people, and criminals can also become good people who do justice.
"That sucks," she murmured.
If she hadn't known Lu Shu, Su Ming'an and others, and knew that not all the players on the list were evil, she would most likely feel the same panic as these people.
She cleared the table and walked back despite people's fearful eyes, but heard a "click".
This is the prompt for a server-wide live broadcast. If a player pays enough points, this server-wide live broadcast can be initiated and the sound will be transmitted to everyone's ears.
A Western man appeared on the live broadcast screen hanging on the street. He wore a crisp suit and his hair was neatly styled with gel.
At the bottom of the screen, there is a line of small characters representing his name [Blair Dion].
He smiled and faced everyone who looked directly at him:
"Everyone, I learned a truth and can tell you."
"You can choose to believe this truth, or you can choose not to believe it. Of course, after this, everyone will believe more and more in this truth - because it is true."
Lin Yin stood there, staring at the screen.
At this moment, she seemed to be able to hear the "thumping" and "thumping" of her heartbeat in her chest, as if something important was about to happen.
People around him stopped to listen. This kind of live broadcast across the entire server was very costly, and what the speaker said was usually very informative.
Dion spread his hands:
“To be honest, I was shocked when I learned the truth.
"[--All players who have passed the level perfectly can actually realize a wish at the moment the game ends. The organizer must grant this wish. Whether it is to dominate the planet, to massacre everyone, or to become the emperor of the new world. 】
"Of course, you will definitely say that this speculation has been raised a long time ago, but what I mean is - this is not a speculation, it is absolutely true.
"Sooner or later, you will see the scene where all the perfect passers make a wish to the organizer at the end of the game.
"Sooner or later, your fate will be controlled by all those who have perfected the level. Even if the progress bar reaches the target, with just one wish, all those who have perfected the level can rule you like a chicken.
"As for why I say this is true..." As he finished speaking, a white light suddenly shone on him.
When Dion saw the sudden white light, he laughed like crazy and shed tears.
"Hahaha, haha - as expected, I've touched your pain point, so you are so eager to silence me..." His words stopped abruptly.
The live broadcast screen automatically turns off with a click.
Lin Yin stood there, the cold wind flowed into her collar, and she suddenly shivered.
There was silence all around, and everyone seemed to suddenly not know what to do.
Lin Yin tightened her collar and quickly returned to her villa area, her calves were trembling - she was so scared. But she obviously shouldn't be afraid.
But when she heard the news, she really felt a heartfelt fear, a fear that her fate was in the hands of others.
Even she would feel scared, let alone those weak ordinary people.
An hour later, the United Mission officially posted an obituary on the forum.
At 8:16 am today (January 28, 2022), Italian adventure player Blair Dion, who posted a live broadcast for the entire server, died after the live broadcast was forcibly interrupted by the organizer.
The cause of death was that he violated some [rules] and was written off by the organizer, leaving his body intact.
Blair Dion devoted a lot to maintaining human order during his lifetime and explored the truth behind all the perfect levels. We regret his death. Regarding why he was wiped out, Hubert, a well-known forum player, speculated that Dion used some extra-order means during the testing process and violated certain rules of the [game]...
Lin Yin closed the forum.
"..."
She held the hot water bottle, but she felt cold all over.
"All those who passed the level perfectly..."
"Su Mingan..."
