Li Yuxuan was driving the car and noticed the movement in the back seat: "Xinyue, what are you doing!"
"Drive your car well, or I will stab you." Xinyue stroked her rose-red hair and said softly.
Li Yuxuan could only maintain the original speed.
The scenery outside the window flies by, becoming more and more desolate. The closer you get to the second tower, the more you are in a long-abandoned city. It is like gradually lifting the fog on the ancient map, and going deep into the land that mankind once abandoned.
"...In just half an hour, two people put weapons at my fatal point." Su Mingan said: "I can understand Yi Changping's situation. He was too excited and wanted to atone for his sins. So, what about you? ?Xinyue, I remember when I first met you in Daoyacheng, you held me gently, comforted me, made me feel at ease, and told me not to listen to strange sounds. You are also my first As a guide, why would you want to stop me?"
Xinyue lowered her head slightly.
There was still moisture in her eyes, and she whispered:
"Because I'm here for your safety. You really... don't continue the investigation."
"The gods must have advised you to stay with Him with peace of mind, and nothing will happen. In the end... who knows whether it will be a treasure or a Pandora's box that will be opened. There are too many horrific things buried in the history of thousands of years ago, even if I don’t know anything about it and I don’t want you to be put at risk by it.”
"Xinyue." Su Mingan's voice was very calm, and the knife on his neck was not a threat: "Maybe the gods have given you an oracle, asking you to persuade me as a third party. But at the same time, there are many People have placed their hopes on me, hoping that I will become a god."
"Many things can only be solved on a reciprocal level. Only by becoming an old god can I have the capital to negotiate with the gods and the power to save the world. The goal of the gods is to destroy the world. This is very clear, and He himself has no Refute. And my mission does not allow me to leave the world alone. Even if something happens to me in the end, I can't look back."
"If you really care about my safety, then let everyone stand on my side. Until the world is stabilized and the gods give up destroying the world. This is my responsibility and the reason why I persist until now."
He put his hand on the back of Xinyue's hand and slowly pressed the knife:
"I don't want your history to disappear. Innocent people are persecuted to death, sick people are not treated, and those who are instigators are high in the sky."
"I can't let this go, because I can do it. In addition to my own goals, I will also resist the responsibility of saving people like Su Luoluo, Yi Zhongyu, Li Yuxuan, and Grandma Lin. I don't want you to disappear."
Xinyue slowly put down the knife. She leaned back in her seat in pain, covered her face, and let out a suppressed wail.
She cried loudly, as if she wanted to cry out all the depression and pain. Her rose-red hair kept trembling, and her fingers quickly became wet.
Li Yuxuan was driving in front and sighed softly when he heard these words. He had nothing to say, just silent gratitude in his heart.
"You advised me to give up because of what the gods said to you?" Su Mingan touched the blood marks on his neck, and the blood marks healed quickly. He looked at Xinyue's face full of tears and knew that she was also in pain.
"...The gods told me via email that if you continue to explore, the alien king will eventually devour you, and you will lose yourself, or even a lot. So...so..." Xinyue said guiltily: "You and us here It doesn't matter at all. I know that you are a traveler from another world, and we forced you to come here..."
Su Mingan shook his head: "I'm already here, I will do it."
His promise was concise and firm, just eight words.
Already here,
I will do it.
You won't let it go, and you won't stop because of fear. If it was just a damage to his mental state, it wouldn't be a big price. He had to dig out the deepest secrets of the world. In addition to this world, there is also a world of my own.
Xinyue just sighed.
The vehicle braked and reached the second tower.
Su Mingan opened the car door and looked up - thousands of people had gathered here. The tower is like a dark beacon, the halo at the top has not yet been lit. Under the bright sunshine, people are waiting here quietly, waiting for him with flowers, cameras, microphones and medals of honor.
——It’s like waiting for a leader to open the curtain of the theater, waiting for a pioneer to open a new era.
Under the flashlight, Su Mingan couldn't see clearly the expressions of these people. There are so many of them, they are as densely packed as ants, and the amount of such gazes behind the camera is far more than a thousand or ten thousand times.
His leather boots hit the ground and made a "click" sound, like a horn.
"——Su Mingan."
Directly below the second tower, Mizushima Kawakora was dressed in a golden and white goddess costume. She still wore a golden ring around her neck and held a luxurious scepter made of crystal and gold in her hand.
Under people's gaze, Mizushima Kawakawa and Su Ming'an's eyes met without any hindrance. The two parties seemed to be standing on a straight line on the red carpet, with no room for avoidance.
"——The gods also told me not to continue." Mizushima Kawakora said: "The first tower...enough, enough. Stop."
Su Mingan said: "You finally stopped riddles."
Mizushima Kawakora shook his head: "I have never asked a riddle. I have always wanted you to die. Because if you look back on history, terrible things will indeed happen. People's awareness will become more and more serious. The alien king will be awakened and resurrected. You It will also be devoured...this is what the gods told me."
Su Mingan said: "The purpose of the gods has always been to destroy the world. And he has never told you this information, and he is telling you now. Because I successfully passed the first tower, is he afraid?"
He walked forward, and there was a slow sound of "ta", "ta", "ta" under his feet.
Mizushima Kawakora's words can be regarded as an indirect recognition of Su Ming'an's identity as the old god. He is equal to the gods - everyone is aware of this.
Mizushima Kawakora sighed: "Because even if the gods say it, you will not stop. Since coercion is useless, I can only tell you the truth and let you make your own decision."
Su Mingan said: "I understand."
Chain of suspicion.
A chain of suspicion has already been formed. When one person takes the lead in becoming suspicious, others will quickly fall into a state of mutual distrust. No matter how sincere the words are, they will never make each other believe them again.
He believed that Mizushima Kawakora was telling the truth at this time, and he was also willing to believe that what the gods said was true. But this was all a necessary process for customs clearance, and he believed that he would not be left with an unsolvable problem in the end.
As long as it happens often enough...
No,
As long as he thinks enough and cooperates with Noel and the others enough... it will be solved.
A happy ending... will always be achieved.
While Su Ming'an and Mizushima Kawakora were talking, news broadcasts kept ringing:
"Frontline news broadcast - now, a full 30,000 people have gathered at the second tower on the front line. The military is working intensively to clear the black fog and look for traces of the third tower. The black fog coverage rate is now as high as 75%. The third tower is located deep in the black fog, and the progress of the Dream Patrol game still needs to be accelerated."
"For the old gods, the Lord God did not issue a new oracle, and he seemed to have acquiesced in the old gods opening the second tower."
"Yi Zhongyu, the former No. 1 dream patrol expert, said that he will still work hard on dream patrol and fight for the destiny of mankind."
"Regarding the incident in Experimental City, the coalition government is already convening a meeting. The faction supporting the old gods has helped Ms. Lin Yuzi and others complete their rehabilitation."
"We are still hesitant about opening the second and third towers. We hope that the Old God can lead us and avoid the fate of the world's destruction."
"..."
"Please give me permission. I want to open the second tower." Su Mingan said sideways.
"...Okay." Mizushima Kawakora had already advised him, and she no longer stopped him. If Su Ming'an gives up saving, he can only save Su Ming'an himself, because the gods only promised to let Su Ming'an live, and everyone else will disappear with the destruction of the world. If Su Mingan insists, it will do no harm to anyone except himself.
Su Mingan stood under the second tower and raised the bell in his hand high.
The bells flew high into the sky, and the "Girl" logo on his head gradually disappeared. The second tower gave off a dazzling light, and the three angels appeared in the sky again.
——Judgment Angel Biluo. Angbu, the killing angel. And after the death of Wright, the Angel of Order, a successor angel appeared.
Su Mingan flew high in a wheelchair, and the three angels backed down one after another.
The second tower lights up.
A situation similar to the first tower appeared - time began to flow backwards, the long-rotted petals returned to the branches, the rusty buildings became bright and new, and the originally filled sand turned into flowing clear water. Lake with water flow.
Everything is going back, everything is changing...
People are still shocked by the shock of this scene, and this visual change is dizzying.
"Look - that's - in the sky!" someone screamed.
Above the clear sky, an airship suddenly appeared. It is made of iron sheets and rivets, and its tail sprays white air. It sails in the sky, and its huge metal propeller blows long winds and blows people's hair.
"Click, click, click—"
At the same time, the surrounding scene is also going back in time - high-rise buildings disappear and become the pavilions of the mechanical age. The asphalt road disappeared and turned into gravel and dirt. The bullets on the ground also disappeared, turning into cold spears and shields. They lay quietly on the ground, as if watching the time go back.
When the doors on both sides were opened, people saw residents dressed in medieval costumes.
"This, this is..." People were dumbfounded for a moment. They never thought that time would go back to...
A line of small words appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
…
[The second tower has been opened. 】
[The name of this tower is: "Goddess Salvation". 】
[World mission name: "Mobius Strip". 】
[Quest content: The Alien King is likely to resurrect during the duration of the second tower. Please seal or defeat it. 】
[Current look back time: 818 (modern times) - 512 years (steam age). 】
[Any action you take will simultaneously change the history in "Girls' Dream Project" and reflect it to the present with a butterfly effect, changing the future. Please proceed with caution. 】
[The struggle of the disciples continues. 】
…
In an instant, panic, shock, panic, surprise, excitement...all kinds of emotions spread among the crowd.
"Going back so far?" people shouted.
"Wait a minute, is it true that the "Girls' Growth Plan" is our buried past? It turns out that in just three hundred years, the world will change drastically..." Someone thought.
"This is what the gods have done by burying history - as long as they cover up the past and give mankind a new architectural foundation, social foundation, and ideological foundation, one era can leap into another era in an instant. Because mankind has no foundation of its own at all. To To create a primitive era, you only need to give them fire. To create a steam age, you only need to give them airships and mechanical technology. To create a modern era, you only need to give them the Internet and the foundation of various disciplines."
"So -" Su Mingan said slowly: "Is there a possibility that our 'modern' can actually be traced back by the tower from the 'future'? We... are probably just a part of 'history'."
Mizushima Kawa Sora looked at him in shock.
History is not history.
Modern is not modern.
The future is not the future.
History can be inserted into the present, the present can look back on history, and both history and the present can change the future. The future can also be traced back to change the past and present.
——What affects them is only "cause and effect".
Like an open spider web, the causal threads in the web are connected to each other, and one move affects the whole body. If you fiddle with one line, the other will shift accordingly, causing the entire spider web to tremble, regardless of whether the line is a line in the past or a line in the future.
When the "future" is happening, the "past" is also happening simultaneously. Just like Su Ming'an learned about the Alien King in the "present", the "Girls' Dream Project" in the "past" will also simultaneously spread the news of the Alien King Su's birth.
"But... I already know that this is obviously a different world." Su Mingan thought. In the morning, he crossed the edge of the world and saw the real Alice's world, which obviously did not belong to history.
So, what is the connection between these worlds...
The mechanical airship landed in front of people's eyes.
A girl with a white gauze hair, a crystal crown, and a snow-white dress slowly stepped off the airship. People on the airship bowed their heads and surrounded her, kissed the back of her hand, and walked off with her.
"Alice..." Su Mingan finally saw Alice. She became very different.
"Lord Goddess Tasriche—come here—!"
Su Mingan's call was interrupted by the residents on the airship. The local people kowtowed to Alice as if she were a god that could not be blasphemed.
——One year has already passed in the game. Alice has become the goddess Tasiriche.
The noble and graceful goddess walked into this land and met the eyes of Mizushima Kawakora in the same attire. They all have the same identity, the same attire, but completely different eyes.
