Song Yu looked back with a sullen face. Although he had just repaired a crack, the soul power consumed in his body was quickly replenished. The alchemy method of this soul-replenishing pill is not yet known, but the current soul power is real. Instead of being disgusted here, it is better to take this opportunity to mend a few more cracks.
With everyone's concerted efforts, the formation was strengthened very quickly. Before dawn, a golden light flashed, and the formation that had been cracked by the aliens had been re-repaired. It’s even hard to see clearly what’s inside.
Even though the formation has been strengthened, the space for the outside world to be corroded by bugs is getting bigger and bigger. The entire sky turned into a mottled appearance, and there were many centipede-like golden stripes left behind after being sewn by Song Yu and Lu Mingzhi - it was obvious that the two people's handicraft skills were very average, plus the sewing skills Being in a hurry naturally doesn’t look good.
Even uglier than those ugly gaps were the expressions on their faces.
The crack appeared so fast that Song Yu didn't even bother to think about what the soul-repairing pill was made from, and took another pill. Unfortunately, the repair speed is still not as fast as the cracks appear.
Lu Mingzhi sighed and stopped mending the "sky": "That's it. Are you really not willing to leave with me?"
Song Yu knew that Lu Mingzhi had tried his best, and at the current rate at which the bug was spreading, even the two of them would be exhausted and unable to stop it. At this moment, Song Yu couldn't even bring up the interest in bargaining with Lu Mingzhi. He just waved his hand and said, "The heaven you want is not in my world, but I will definitely help you if I have the chance."
I'll help you propose to the game company to open another map. Although Song Yu felt that even if he didn't propose it, as long as the game was launched, new maps would be developed sooner or later.
The smile on Lu Mingzhi's face disappeared, and he looked at Song Yu thoughtfully. Finally, he nodded imperceptibly and drew a door with an ink pen. Before he was about to step out, he glanced at Yuan Fang who was following him. Yuan Fang did not return to the size of a parrot at this time. Instead, she glanced at Song Yu worriedly while her master was not paying attention.
"If you're not afraid, just stay."
Yuan Fang was stunned for a moment and looked at Lu Mingzhi in confusion, as if thinking about whether this was an order given to him by his master.
"It's not an order." Lu Mingzhi rarely faked a smile, but gently touched Yuan Fang's head: "You are a living, independent individual. You can make your own choices as long as it does not infringe on my interests."
The conversation between one person and one bird is within the scope covered by the light gate, and the outside world cannot hear it at all. After the light gate disappeared, Yuan Fang had returned to the size of a palm and flew to the top of Song Yu's head with a swoop, looking down at the caterpillar on his shoulder. That expression seemed to say that he was the master standing in the highest position.
Then Song Yu reached out to grab it and threw it out...
Song Yu ignored Yuan Fang's accusation and just frowned and looked at the sky thoughtfully. The current cracks are only limited to the sky, but...if cracks also appear on the earth, what will the world look like?
Even when Xie Nanshi was making up the formation, he focused part of his attention on Lu Mingzhi, so he naturally saw him leaving. He hesitated for a moment, but did not stop him. He just walked to Song Yu's side. "You are not alone in this world." So there is no need to take all the responsibility on yourself.
This sounded more like what he would say to Xie Nanshi. Song Yu rubbed his eyebrows. It’s not easy to play a game and truly feel like this.
"Go back and rest." Jie Nanshi took Song Yu back as if he didn't see the cracks that still existed in the sky.
Song Yu felt that his soul power had not been completely exhausted, and he could still sew two more gaps: "Wait a little longer..."
"No more waiting." Xie Nanshi grabbed one of Song Yu's arms and directly carried him on his back: "Go to sleep."
The moment Song Yu lay on Jie Nanshi's back, he suddenly felt sore all over his body, and his head was beating as if it was about to split. Only then did Song Yu realize that his nerves had been tense.
As a good young man who grew up under stable social conditions, when he found himself trapped in a game, he complained but did not feel much fear. After all, life in the game is quite colorful.
But this time was different, Song Yu pursed his lips. If the game is destroyed this time and he cannot exit, then his consciousness will probably fall asleep with the game. We can only passively wait for the outside world to wake up one day. What is the difference between that and a vegetative state?
But Xie Nanshi was right, the current situation cannot be solved by him alone.
Song Yu let out a long breath and let go of his thoughts as if resigned to his fate. In just a moment, he completely fell into sleep.
Xie Nanshi felt the person on his back sink, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly. He carried the person back to the side room on the main peak, placed the person properly, turned around and walked out again.
Jie Nanshi looked up at the mottled sky, with a hint of fatigue on his usually calm face. But he just closed his eyes for a moment and then walked towards the main hall.
At this time, people from the four cities and various sects should have arrived, and everyone can rest temporarily, but he... the young master of the Sword Pavilion, cannot.
…
"The game has been damaged by uncontrollable forces, and the emergency logout system is being activated. Whether the host logs out of the game...the host has no choice. The countdown to log out of the game is 10, 9, 8, 7..."
Song Yu was awakened by a burst of electronic sound, and when he opened his eyes, he saw still darkness.
"Stop!" Song Yu shouted stop subconsciously, and the countdown in his ears disappeared. He looked around and saw nothing. Shouldn't he be in Jiange? Where is this now?
Song Yu rubbed his eyes vigorously, and when he opened them again, there was still no change in his eyes. What is going on... The sound he just heard was...
Song Yu's heart suddenly beat violently. He couldn't wait to open the system page and found that the logout display on it lit up as expected.
The surprise came so quickly that Song Yu was almost moved to tears. He subconsciously reached out and wanted to click to log out, but hesitated the moment he was about to touch it. He didn't forget the scene where the game was about to crash. If he really logged out like this, would it be...
No matter, those are just
It’s just a PC!
Thinking like this, Song Yu couldn't help but think of every detail of Xie Nanshi's journey. That kind of trust and care was something he had never experienced in reality.
Song Yu gritted his teeth. He was going to give himself ten minutes to at least figure out the situation, say goodbye to Xie Nanshi and then leave! The first priority is to figure out where this place is. At this moment, Song Yu saw a sudden message from Ye Jiao, who had not replied to him.
Ye Jiao: There is no way to recover the bug. We urgently fixed the logout window. You can exit the game immediately.
Song Yu frowned and replied hesitantly: If I leave now, the game will be completely irreparable.
Ye Jiao paused for a moment, and it kept showing that he was typing. After a while, he sent a message: I applied to help you temporarily block some of the body's sensations, including pain, smell, and taste. You should exit the game as soon as possible.
Isn’t it that the system that blocks pain sensation has failed? Song Yu frowned, and before he could think clearly, he heard the voice of Nan Shi.
"Songyu!"
Song Yu responded hurriedly: "I'm here!"
He sat up as he spoke, and after groping for a moment, he found himself lying on the bed. I just don’t know why it’s so dark around here. He planned to get out of bed, but he missed the point and almost lost his head.
Fortunately, Jie Nanshi rushed over after hearing the sound and grabbed Song Yu's arm, thus avoiding the tragedy of his disfigurement.
"Where is this?" Perhaps because the game logout button appeared, Song Yu felt much more relaxed, and added half-jokingly: "Don't tell me that the sky fell when I woke up."
Unexpectedly, Xie Nanshi hummed and agreed.
After a moment of silence, Song Yu almost jumped: "Are you serious?!"
Xie Nanshi was also stunned for a moment. He originally thought that Song Yu had guessed the current situation, but he didn't expect that he just said it casually. Then he slowly told what happened after Song Yu fell asleep.
"After you fell asleep, I sent you back to the main peak and headed to the mountain gate to greet the people from the Four Cities and various sects. However, after three hours, the gap between heaven and earth suddenly increased, and the place where it was swallowed was in chaos. Among them It also includes the main peak.”
Xie Nanshi summarized it succinctly, but the current situation is actually not a disaster. But it's not much better than that, even... "The door to the ruins opened again, and the back mountain formation was broken."
So much so that alien races are now rampant outside.
Song Yu finally understood, and Daoist Priest dared to run into the chaos voluntarily to find him. How does this allow him to quit the game with peace of mind?
Song Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly, but if he didn't log out, would he have to wait for death in the game?
"What's wrong?" Even if there is no light around, it is difficult for even a cultivator to see in this environment, and he must rely on sound to perceive the situation. Jie Nanshi still noticed that Song Yu's mood was not right, and even stopped suddenly while walking.
Song Yu thought for a while and told the truth: "I found my way home."
Xie Nanshi was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect that Song Yu would find an opportunity to return home under such circumstances. But he knew that Song Yu had been looking for a way to leave, just like he had been looking for his father.
"Congratulations." Xie Nanshi's tone was calm, even with a smile, and he let go of Song Yu's hand.
Song Yu grabbed Jie Nanshi with his backhand, and his tone became a little urgent: "Aren't you going to try to save him? I can still play a role..."
Jie Nanshi didn't let Song Yu finish. He reached out and hugged the person next to him in an almost comforting manner: "You don't belong here, you should go back to your own world."
So there is no need or obligation to stay and perish with this world.
