"Ding dong!"
[You discovered the Immortal Talisman Seal·"New". 】
…
Su Mingan rubbed the wooden sign in his hand.
He had moved a chair and sat across from Li Mingyue, watching Li Mingyue write down the rules of immediate death.
The voices of female students came from the outer hall. They had finished school and were praying before supper.
"What authority does this Immortal Talisman Seal represent?" Su Mingan rubbed the butterfly wooden plaque: "Is it called 'Xinjian'?"
Li Mingyue put down the pen gently: "It can build a small space and drag people into the space, so it is called 'New'."
Su Ming'an stared at the wooden sign in his hand: "The Immortal Talisman is really powerful. If you continuously pull people into a small space to trigger the instant death rule, you can easily destroy a person."
Li Mingyue stretched out her hand and pressed her finger on the wooden sign: "There are very few people who hold the Immortal Talisman and Seal. Most of the Immortal Talisman and Seal are still hidden in the ruins. I only got one by chance."
But Su Mingan didn't want to let go - this thing was too strong. He looked at Li Mingyue with a longing look. Li Mingyue looked at his expression, a little helpless, and relaxed her fingers slightly: "The Immortal Talisman Seal will recognize its owner. My name has been engraved on it. You can take it." You can’t fight the enemy even if you go.”
Su Mingan said: "Since I can't give you this, then give me more good things, godfather..."
He finally caught a good guy, so he quickly gathered more wool so that he could grow up quickly.
Li Mingyue placed the rule book under the ventilated window and watched the ink gradually dry. The sun was setting in the distance. Far away, the fire had gradually extinguished, but the red color still remained in the sky.
His profile was smeared with reddish-purple afterglow, like a richly colored oil painting.
The broken light reflected by the cross pierced Su Mingan's eyes, and he blinked slightly. This scene is as beautiful as fantasy, like rising colorful bubbles.
At first, Li Mingyue's first impression of Su Ming'an was that of a pure white stone sculpture without emotions. No matter what he did, there would be no emotional fluctuations. Now Su Ming'an discovered that Li Mingyue was not emotionless, but that Li Mingyue's gentleness and indulgence only treated certain people.
But the feeling of the Chinese master Li Mingyue in "Lou Yue Kingdom" is different for Su Ming'an. The national master Li Mingyue really has almost no emotions. Whether he is witnessing the eldest prince's blood being taken or suppressing the alien white lotus, the national master always looks down on him. Watching all this from the perspective, his posture is like a real immortal.
So far, Su Ming'an has not been able to confirm the connection between the godfather and the national master. Could it be said that the Dream Patrol game is imprinting reality? The gods printed out games one after another based on the actual situation, and were looking for ways to dispel the black fog in reality in the games?
Su Mingan said: "By the way, Godfather, I spent a night in the old Holy See, and someone assassinated me."
Li Mingyue glanced sideways.
Su Mingan recounted his experience. At that time, he was playing "Lou Yue Kingdom". When he was about to arrive at Penglai Island, someone suddenly assassinated him in reality. He did not die after losing consciousness. Instead, he returned to "Lou Yue Kingdom" and could not exit "Lou Yue Kingdom". 》. It wasn't until his suicide triggered the real death flashback that this incident was covered.
In Su Mingan's narration, he hid the part about his death and only said that someone assassinated him. And he asked indirectly, if he died in reality, would he really be dead?
Li Mingyue thought for a moment and replied: "Death in reality is indeed not a real death."
Su Mingan said in surprise: "Doesn't it count?"
Li Mingyue said: "In some cases, after people die, they will enter the game and become local characters in the game. As for the principle, I can't tell you."
Su Ming'an suddenly felt at ease. The situation Li Mingyue said was completely consistent with what he experienced at that time.
"You continue reading. The ruins are open tonight and I will send you there." Li Mingyue turned around.
"where are you going?"
"Go to the city to distribute relief supplies." Li Mingyue paused: "...You don't have to go. You are no longer suitable for this kind of work."
The bishop in white left, leaving only Su Ming'an in the room.
White pigeons flew outside the window, and Li Mingyue opened the bread bags in her hands alone and distributed food and medical supplies to the refugees in turn. The spring snow transformed into white feathers fell, and there was no longer the shadow of another boy behind him.
Su Mingan stared out the window for a moment. He got under the table and pulled out a Dream Patrol helmet. This should be Li Mingyue's Dream Patrol helmet.
He put on his helmet and logged into the "Girls' Dream Project". There were two accounts available for login, one was his own and the other was Su Lin's. It seems that the certification standard of Dream Patrol Game is very broad, and it can certify both the body and the soul.
Su Mingan logged into Su Lin's account and wanted to see what kind of child Su Lin could raise.
After logging into the game, Su Mingan looked down and saw that he was in an airship, with the Royal Engineer status medal on his chest and the boundless blue sea in the distance.
...Su Lin really spares no effort to find the feeling of her hometown in every game, and will definitely restore it to the maximum extent.
Su Mingan opened the information interface of Su Lin's child and was stunned.

…
Su Mingan was shocked by this terrifying value and felt the difference in the world.
Alice's highest value is only 500 cooking points. Any of Xiao Hei's skills can beat her. If even a bard, Xiao Hei, is so powerful, how can it be Alice's turn to be the goddess? What went wrong in her growth path? Or is she simply unable to become stronger?
Su Mingan pushed open the door and walked out. This airship was Su Lin's personal airship. It was parked above the Kingdom of Steam. As long as you lowered your head, you could see the street of the detective's house. It seems that Su Lin has been staying above the detective's house.
After all, this was Su Lin's account. Su Mingan logged out after looking at it for a while.
Change number.
When Su Mingan opened his eyes, he smelled the aroma of black tea and the steam of spring cakes on the table. He turned around and saw Alice lying on the bed.
Touched Alice's forehead, she had a fever.
"Detective... Sir." Alice whispered: "Welcome home... I have been sick these days..."
It had been half a year since she last saw Su Ming'an.
"You lie down while I buy medicine." Su Mingan set off immediately.
He went to the drug store on the street, only to find that it was locked. There were only a few people on the street, and traces of artillery fire appeared on the edge of the city wall. The war had already reached here.
He went to the royal city to see Princess Evitina, but was told that the princess had gone to another country to seek allies, and the rest of the royal family were ready for a deadly battle. The war situation is very tense.
Su Mingan looked at the scene of this country with nostalgia. He actually liked this mechanical country. Whether it was the iron-gray motorcycle or the gears running on the eaves of the house, they were all very distinctive. However, once the war comes here, all the exquisite works of art will be burned down. He has experienced huge civilizational wars and knows that war will only bring destruction.
He passed by the red-light alley where he and Alice had first met. There was no longer a girl standing on the street here. The fragments of the wine bottle were scattered all over the ground, and only the blood-red seal could be seen.
The plague is getting worse and worse, and now the only popular place in the town is probably the church. The refugees hid in the church like swarming rats.
Passing by the fountain in the square, Su Mingan saw many parents hanging safety charms with their children. The old tree has taken on a heavy and drooping posture, with thousands of peace charms hanging on its branches. It carries too many people's wishes, and it is unknown when it will fall. Su Mingan tried to find the peace charm he and Alice hung half a year ago, but he couldn't see it.
…
[Girl: What did you write? 】
[Detective: I want you to live well and still be Alice, not Tasliche. 】
…
Su Mingan looked up in silence at the big tree whose leaves could no longer be seen clearly. He did not buy any antipyretic medicine. Alice must have been sick during his absence. How did she survive it?
Lying in bed alone, coughing, giving myself an ice pack. No one takes care of her, and many of her friends have disappeared.
He walked home, and there was an old man standing at the door. The old man was older than four years ago, and his head was covered with white hair.
"...It's you, detective." Morgan turned around and thrust a box of medicine into Su Ming'an's hand: "Take it, the antipyretic medicine, I kept it myself."
Su Mingan clutched the medicine box tightly. This was a timely blessing: "Thank you."
Morgan smiled: "I watched Alice grow up, and she is almost sixteen now. This child has always been very stubborn. I once told her that she has no talent for fighting, but she insists on learning swordsmanship."
Su Mingan sighed heartily. Alice actually liked playing the piano, but it was only because he asked her to learn swordsmanship that she had nothing else in her eyes.
Morgan said: "I thought it was very strange at the time, so I said, Alice, you are really not suitable for fighting. You are born with a weak constitution, your understanding cannot keep up, and your mental state is not suitable for learning talismans. As for me, I can teach you. With your conversation and etiquette, you can go to the royal city to be a court musician, or marry a nobleman, and live a comfortable life."
"But she shook her head and said she just wanted to get stronger."
"She started making tea for me every day, bringing me snacks, and running around every day to help me run errands. I really couldn't bear it. This child has such a good heart. She even wanted to feed the wild pigeons passing by. I felt soft. , and began to teach her how to learn the sword."
"After studying for four years, she is somewhat good at it. As for whether she can protect herself in a war, it is really open to question."
"Sometimes I ask her, why do you learn to sword? You obviously don't like wielding a sword, and there are so many people saying that you are a muscular girl. What are you trying to do? But she said that she wants to protect her detective in the future. So she must become stronger. This child... is always thinking about you."
Su Mingan listened silently. He didn't know Alice's growth experience. He was just a passer-by who saw her every half a year and could not accompany her for many years, but she always regarded him as the best person.
The old man smoked a cigarette: "I don't know why you adopted her. Your life experience is mysterious. I am also a retired Knight of Light, but I can't find out your background. Detective, you should have some skills. Take her out of here as soon as possible. , this country can’t last more than half a year.”
Su Mingan shook his head. His answer was the same as Alice's, she would become a goddess and he couldn't escape.
The old man sighed: "In that case, I won't persuade you any more."
He pulled out a sword from his back and handed it to Su Mingan: "This is the sword I used before retiring. Give it to Alice. After teaching her for four years, it's time to start teaching, so just treat it as a gift from the teacher." Farewell gift.”
It was a beautiful sword, with a ruby hilt and royal carvings. Su Mingan took the sword, and the heavy weight made his hands feel heavy.
…
[Morgan Maxey’s Royal Knight Sword (Red Level, Evolvable)]
[Source: "Girls' Dream Project"]
[Durability: 3/3]
[Active skill (Pledge to Victory): Summon the phantom of Morgan Maxey's sword soul to fully unleash the power of his eighteen sword moves. Once used, the durability is reduced by one. When the durability is exhausted, the blade will shatter. 】
[Passive skill (Royal Majesty): Holding this sword, civilians will fear your majesty. You will no longer belong to the common people. 】
…
Su Mingan raised his head: "Where are you going?"
He was deeply impressed by this enthusiastic, kind and chatty old man. When he first entered the game, it was the old man who acted as a guide for newbies. For the past four years, this old man has been helping to take care of Alice.
"In this life, there must be a time to say goodbye."
Under the setting sun, the old man dusted off his cigarette ashes: "I can't stand the trouble anymore. I just want to avoid the war. I have never been married in my life, and I have no children around my knees. I will go back to the countryside to raise a few chickens and dogs, and be happy." Enjoy your retirement.”
Su Mingan watched his leaving figure and suddenly said:
"...Will the retired Knight of Light have such a happy and stable life?"
The old man paused:
"Yeah, at least I am."
"Which old friend are you thinking of, young man?"
The old man's back gradually melted into the sunset.
