A blue light flashed, and Li Yi opened his eyes and saw the concerned eyes of his parents.
"How about it?"
"are you OK?"
What the two asked were two words that sounded the same, but had different focuses.
Li Yi knew it well.
What Cheap's father asked was how to treat the Undersea King.
The beautiful woman was concerned about his "son".
This made Li Yi feel warm in his heart.
Although she already knew that this was no longer their son, she couldn't fake such a true expression.
"I'm fine. As for the treatment... you can see for yourself!"
Ignoring those two people, Li Yi tilted his head and whispered.
"Aren't you afraid of being seen just showing up like this?"
"Didn't you already see it? They can't see me."
"What's the point in this?"
"Haha, didn't I say that I am a conscious body. I can only see it in the consciousness space, such as the game world just now. In fact, I can't see it in reality. If you are not my host, In fact, you can’t see it either.”
He actually didn't say a word.
That is, even with the relationship of the host, there is no way to see his body (consciousness).
Because he himself does not belong to this real world creature.
In fact, many times, those consciousnesses disguised as systems have appeared, but not every host can see them.
"Very good, it seems that there is no problem. Let's do this. You come with us and I will take you to meet some people so that you can get what you want."
The woman nodded, with a look of relief on her face, while a trace of disappointment flashed in her eyes.
It would be great if this was still her son.
So excellent and with mysterious abilities.
Wouldn't it be easy for such a person to survive in this water world?
It's just that my strength is a little bit behind...it's okay, I can teach you.
The woman asks and answers herself in her heart.
Li Yi, who didn't understand that the woman already regarded him as half of her son, nodded when he heard this.
"good."
He didn't refuse.
This was the result he wanted.
The reason why he agreed to treat the Undersea King was actually a condition of exchange.
But Li Yi didn't know that this couple, especially the woman, besides being tempted, also had some selfish motives in them.
The moment Li Yi nodded, the woman who was not very interested just now clearly flashed a hint of joy.
And her expression was noticed by her husband.
This made him sigh slightly, but he didn't say anything.
As a husband and wife, how could he not know his wife's inner thoughts.
The son is dead.
He died inexplicably, but his son's body is still "alive" in this world because of the intervention of another person.
Although they knew very well that the body that looked exactly like their son contained a completely different soul.
But the woman still couldn't help but want to get close.
That's her son!
A son born in ten months of pregnancy!
Even if you know that the soul inside no longer belongs to that person.
But the woman still couldn't help but want to deny this fact.
He even substituted what Li Yi did into the performance of his own son.
This seemed to make her feel better.
"Let's do this. To avoid misunderstanding, it's better for you to come back with us later and not use your original identity. Do you understand what I mean?"
Li Yi looked at the man, and then at the woman's eager eyes, and understood immediately.
"Okay, just as you said."
He agreed!
The look on the woman's face was one of visible happiness, which also made the proposing husband let out a sigh of relief.
He was really worried that the person who had taken over his son's body for unknown reasons would disagree.
After all, it might be slightly offensive.
How can I be called daddy as soon as I come up?
Fortunately, he seemed to understand.
...
Vault 003.
"This is it."
Looking at the huge sign in front of him, the man introduced.
"This is the shelter we live in. As you can see, No. 003, which means there were only shelters 001 and 002 before this, but those two shelters only existed in legends, so strictly speaking, This 003 is the best shelter in the world."
"oh?"
Li Yi raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this.
So is this showing off? But no matter how much you show off, isn't it still a refuge?
Doesn't it mean that the living conditions in the shelter are better than those in cities in the real world?
impossible!
However, the reality was slapped in the face.
"This is your first time here. Let me introduce you to our 003."
The woman's tone was familiar, and she was very excited to chat with Li Yi, as if she was chatting with him.
"All the shelters on the seabed are basically built after sea monsters. Of course, I'm talking about the ones with double digits and above, and the single-digit shelters are different."
"Oh? Could it be that the single-digit shelters were built before that?"
Li Yi knew that the other party wanted to show off, but he still asked cooperatively, and the scene in front of him also opened his eyes.
Let's put it this way, if it weren't for the fact that the door opened so that he could clearly know that behind this door was Vault 003.
He really couldn't believe this.
Is this a refuge?
This is simply a modern metropolis!
The first thing that catches the eye is the most obvious feature of a modern city - the towering high-rise buildings.
All kinds of gorgeous lights kept flashing, and the whole city seemed to be shrouded in those lights. There was actually a long passage near the gate. After passing through the passage, the view suddenly opened up.
There are tall buildings in the distance, and there is an endless plain nearby, with various buildings of unknown purpose clearly visible.
For Li Yi, the only thing he recognized was the large chimney emitting thick black smoke.
This allowed him to confirm that this was supposed to be an industrial park.
really.
"This is an industrial area, you should be able to tell."
The woman's eyes were shining, staring straight at Li Yi, not looking at the place introduced to her.
It seemed that to her, those sights she had seen countless times were nothing compared to this man who was not her son.
"This is the entertainment area. All the entertainment facilities in 003 are concentrated here. If you want to relax, I will ask someone to take you there."
Looking at the brightest light, Li Yi seemed to be able to hear the singing of birds and birds inside.
Li Yi: ...What does this mean? Do you want to take the opportunity to corrupt me?
"Thank you, I don't think so. What about the others?"
He didn't notice that when he politely declined, the woman had already imagined a big drama on her own.
He actually refused!
He is indeed not my son.
There is no way my son would say no to something like this.
But why didn't I feel any disappointment?
Is it because this man is better than my son? (Li Yi: Auntie, are you okay? You call a dude who frequents entertainment venues excellent? Then I am indeed better than excellent...)
At this moment, she didn't know what words to use to express her feelings.
She lost her favorite son!
But the "son" was standing in front of her alive!
So, do I have a son or not?
Just when the woman was struggling with this non-issue, Li Yi asked.
I saw him pointing to the only place in the distance that was not shrouded in light. He did not look at the woman, but at her husband.
"What is that place?"
"I look at this city...there are lights everywhere in the shelter, and it looks like a bustling city, but there are no lights here."
"And it seems to be located in the very center of the city."
"So, is there any explanation?"
Originally he just asked casually.
After all, there are lights everywhere, making it look very popular.
But in the center of the entire urban agglomeration, there appeared an area that seemed to be shrouded in darkness.
Li Yi didn't expect that he had just finished speaking.
The faces of the couple changed simultaneously.
