"Your situation is very unstable right now."
At the same moment, in the white space of the free world login interface, the figure belonging to Duan Qing was also reflected in the center of the boundless world, almost blending with the white floor that also seemed to have no end around it: "Isn't it? What accident happened again?"
"I thought you could see everything I go through in this world in real time."
Facing the question from the sky above this logged-in world, Duan Qing, who folded his arms and lowered his head, replied easily in a nonchalant voice: "This story is very long, and it may not be clear for a while. Are you sure you want to tell it?" Do you listen?"
"Forget it, after all, the time we can maintain communication is limited." The voice like thunder echoed in the white world above Duan Qing, and then gradually became smaller as if being debugged: "We also want to With your current life safety as our top priority, we cannot continue this level of communication for too long, lest it have any unpredictable impact on your spirit... How have you been feeling recently? You haven't experienced any memory loss again. Such a thing, right?”
"Well -" As if being asked about his shortcomings and pain points, Duan Qing, who was scratching his nose, answered again with a hint of hesitation in his voice: "To be honest, this situation has just appeared. It happened once, I can’t be sure of the time, but it should have been thousands of years..."
"What? Thousands of years?"
The sound of thunder from above the sky suddenly amplified, causing Duan Qing, who was sitting on the floor of the login world, to cover his ears involuntarily. The other party, who seemed to notice some fluctuations in his mood, also hurriedly stopped his hand, and the tone of the voice sounded again. With a sense of rationality: "No, wait a minute, let me calm down. If it is a fourth-generation virtual reality system, it is not impossible to extend the dimension of time to the extreme speed..."
"But in this way, your level of 'transparency' will be greatly affected." As if he had just thought of this problem, the voice hurriedly raised his head in the direction behind him and said, "Lao Luo! You go Check it out! Check it out now! His mental stats may vary a lot!"
"I said, the matter is over, there is no use in making any follow-up remedies." Duan Qing sneered at the vague commotion above, and showed a disdainful side face towards the white curtain. : "If it weren't for the help of someone in this world, I might have been addicted to virtual data and never been able to escape."
"That won't work. Even if you die, you have to leave me the experimental data before you die." He said this in a stiff tone, and the thunderous voice above was also full of suppressed fluctuations: "We are not here for We pulled you out of this world to conduct experiments, otherwise with your current situation, even selling your entire body wouldn’t be enough to pay for our losses—that’s right.”
"There is something I need to explain to you first." The voice paused for a moment amid the busy commotion, and then sounded emotionlessly again as Duan Qing's expression changed slightly: "Someone has already investigated us. "
"...Really?" Duan Qing raised his eyebrows: "Judging from the time that has passed in the real world, you have hidden it very well."
"This day will come sooner or later, and you and I are already prepared accordingly." The voice was still swaying back and forth amidst the constant electronic sounds: "We are even prepared to put the plan to extract your spirit on the experimental schedule in advance regardless of the risks. Come here, but you suddenly do something like this to us again..."
"This is not what I want, and there is nothing I can do about it." Shaking his head, Duan Qing also shifted his gaze to the sky above his head: "And... this might be a good thing."
"Huh, you don't have the final say now, we are the real authority."
There was a hint of warning in his voice, and the thunderous voice from above lowered his voice again: "We have been wiping your butts for what happened three years ago until now. No matter how powerful and arrogant you are, you are still ours now. It’s just a guinea pig in your hand.”
"Okay, okay, I still have this awareness." He spread his hands as if he had given up his resistance, and Duan Qing's eyes were hidden in the movement of lowering his head again: "You are free, don't mess with me. Just die, I don’t want to die in the hands of one of my own people for such a reason.”
"Why, you look down on the strength of our 'Oxes'?" The voice raised a few points again: "I can't beat you in the virtual reality game. This kind of virtual reality theory, I, old John, think that I am much stronger than you. !I ask you--"
"Did you meet the system administrator?"
The atmosphere fell silent for a moment with the appearance of this voice. For a while, there was only a thunderous reverberation toward the sky of the white world. The unrecognizable expression of the gray-robed magician sitting on the spot also lowered his head in silence. The movement lasted for a long time, and finally the slightly unexpected voice of doubt was raised again: "How do you know?"
"Nonsense, isn't this an obvious result?" Thunder from above replied matter-of-factly: "I don't think you really have the ability to extend 'transparency' to the extent that you can change time, and you have the ability to use yourself The only people with the authority to change the time are administrators in this world."
"That Molnar should be the administrator of the system, or at least one of the administrators." Duan Qing tilted his head and looked thoughtful. After a long time, Duan Qing held his chin and said slowly with a look of recollection: "But he The relationship with me now shouldn’t be considered a friendly relationship, at least it can be regarded as a relationship between monitoring and being monitored.”
"You guy." The thunderous voice immediately turned into a sigh: "It's impossible for you to restrain yourself in front of this kind of existence. I should have thought of it a long time ago, but -"
"It's not a bad thing to be discovered." He reminded Duan Qing: "You should understand what I mean. If you want to seek help in this world, there is no one more suitable than him."
"It's really embarrassing." His lips gradually pressed together tightly. After a while, Duan Qing sighed helplessly again: "When I went through all the hard work to find that safe haven, I guessed that seclusion There is no way that the existence in that place is not the key to the world..."
"Isn't dealing with something you are good at? It was you who praised Haikou back then." Thunder continued to echo with disdain: "I will try my best to help you solve the external problems, but you can only solve the internal problems by yourself."
"Okay, I'll try my best." Without raising his head, he waved his hand upwards, and then Duan Qing hid his voice again in the endless white world: "But now we have been thrown to the New World. We want to return to the new world." Finding an opportunity to connect is not something that can be put into action immediately.”
"Then let's stop here. Your brain temperature has almost exceeded the critical line." The thunderous voice began to get smaller and smaller: "Hide well and don't cause any other accidents."
"This is a final reminder - you'd better stay in there if you don't have to."
The sound of the communication disappeared instantly, and along with it was the scene of the endless thunder surrounding the sky of the white world disappearing. Duan Qing, who was still sitting there with his arms folded, did not leave the login interface immediately. The silence with his head lowered and completely silent was gradually broken after a long time: "——I really shouldn't let you know about this place. If you keep trying to get into our place in the future, it will be difficult for me to do it."
"I can't help it, I'm bored too."
It was as dark as being dyed with ink, and a black figure that was completely inconsistent with this world then bloomed in front of Duan Qing as if it had broken through the boundaries: "If it were you who was locked up in that high tower every day, Being monitored, you will definitely make the same choice as me."
"Even great magicians yearn for freedom. I can understand this." He shook his head indifferently, and Duan Qing's voice echoed indifferently on the white that had been stained with pitch black. World Left and Right: "But freedom is not something that can be obtained casually. If more is sacrificed for this reason, it may not be worth the gain."
"Hmph, I don't need you to teach me this kind of truth, lovely magic apprentice." Yu Duanqing's eyes gradually condensed into the appearance of a mature woman with long purple hair, and Verli walked forward with swaying steps. Te touched his temples with graceful movements: "But if I were to face that Molnar's face every day - even though he has no face at all - I might as well come to you to avoid the limelight. "
"Hey, so what do you think this place is, your holy place of refuge?" Duan Qing rolled his eyelids helplessly, and then his fingers fell on the white world that was still entangled with the dark atmosphere: "Possession in the free world alone is enough to cause unpredictable effects. Now it's my spiritual world. If you can still invade at will-"
"I am the Lord of Violet who has studied void and soul for decades, don't try to deceive me." The familiar face that gradually took shape became much more serious, and Violet, who appeared here with a purple-black aura, pressed tightly. Staring closely at Duan Qing's face in front of him: "The real soul world is not like the world you are in now, and the influence and erosion of the void world on this place has nothing to do with your spirit."
"What is this place called, logging into the world?" The feeling of silence slowly dissipated as the two people looked at each other, and a mysterious smile appeared on Violet's face: "I don't mind. If so, could you give me a little introduction?"
"I'm not interested, you'd better not know." Duan Qing lost his special respect for the magic instructor and pointed at the other person's face that was still looking around expressionlessly: "And if you don't want to suffer further from Molnar, If you impose sanctions, you'd better not know anything more."
"That's why I'm being treated so unfairly now, all because of you." Her eyes swayed back and forth between her mature and charming eyes, and Violet, who had her hands on her hips, also made a pose. With an angry expression on his face: "Take responsibility for me and at least rescue me from my captivity."
"I think that safe haven is currently the safest place in the world." Duan Qing curled his lips and shook his head: "But considering the future development trend, that safe haven will be exposed to the world sooner or later... Although I don’t recommend you do this, you may have a chance to be free by then.”
"Don't think that I will just let you go." She suppressed the strong curiosity in her eyes, and then Violet's voice gradually disappeared in the opposite direction opposite Duan Qing: "Now that I have discovered this secret , you will have no room to escape."
"Unless you completely obliterate my existence." In the scene where the dark breath is spreading in the white world, the figure gradually disappears again with this low laughter: "As your mentor, I don't I would like to see this result happen.”
"...Bang." Looking at the direction in which the other party gradually disappeared, Duan Qing, who was sitting upright, shook his head unconsciously: "What is this, a threat?"
"I have saved you so many times, how could I still be so cruel?" Putting away his sigh, the gray-robed magician then began to disappear into the white ocean: "Troublesome One thing happened after another, and my head started to hurt again...Ah, hello to you."
As the chaotic scene shifted, his vision gradually became clearer, and the large green grassland belonging to the Free World Wind Continent was re-displayed in front of Duan Qing. His face and expression quickly adjusted and changed, and then he raised his hand. , greeting each other to the several figures who were also shown in front of Duan Qing: "How are you, have you rested yet - uh."
"What are you staring at me for?"
The fair-skinned beauty suddenly came close to Duan Qing, causing the gray-robed magician to swallow back the greeting he was about to say. Xue Ling Huan Bing, who had been staring at him for a while, also shook his head. , with a suspicious look in his eyes, he slowly stood up straight with his slender body: "...No, I just didn't expect you to be able to sleep for so long."
"That's natural, it's the rule of this world." Pointing to his head, Duan Qing replied with a dry smile: "Otherwise, let alone magic power, even my mental index and physical limit will be reduced a lot. …Ah, that’s right.”
"I promised to treat you." He looked at the simple tent that was being tightly protected on the other side of the extinguished campfire, and scratched his head with some unresponsiveness: "If you want to resume normal operations, you must first solve this problem. Where does the problem begin—eh?”
As he spoke, he stepped forward, lifted up the tent, and then froze in place with the empty scene before him.
"Where are the people?"
