Infinite Possibilities 4

"So your name is Su Wanxing!" Lingyi's question was mixed with dissatisfaction, "You used a hidden card before, and I didn't even notice it?"

Su Wanxing also retorted, "In a way, you are just as annoying as Yi Ling."

"Hmph, don't mention Zero. I didn't expect it to have set its sights on you so early, and then discovered me while testing you!" Zero One still has no entity, and will occasionally attach itself to a star nearby. As long as you see the star flashing red, it must be preparing to speak.

"What do you mean? Have you been eyeing me for a long time?" Su Wanxing asked.

Lingyi admitted, "When Zhou Tian reversed time and space for the first time, he was marked as abnormal by the Crisis Management Bureau; the second time he controlled a large number of robots to help you escape, and I discovered it; the third time the Crisis Management Bureau went to the single-player copy to investigate the abnormality, and finally confirmed Zhou Tian's crime of escaping."

Su Wanxing finally knew where the difference started!

"The planet's fall was caused by Yi Ling? It wanted to force Zhou Tian to make a mistake and let the Space-Time Terminal arrest Zhou Tian personally?!"

Zero clicked his tongue, "You're still as smart as ever."

Sanqi raised his mechanical arm, and when his five fingers closed, a red gem gathered in his palm. Lingyi immediately roared, "You are a complete loser, let me go!"

"You're always jumping around in the starry sky, it's bothering my eyes." Sanqi complained.

"What else can scum like you who have been corrupted by the space-time terminal do except depriving me of my freedom?" Lingyi snorted coldly.

Sanqi was neither impatient nor impatient, and did not let it go. He just looked at Su Wanxing and said, "Excuse me, it's time to talk about business."

Su Wanxing came back to her senses from the quarrel, "Where is this place?"

"The long river of the universe." Sanqi explained, "You can think of it as a prison, or a place forgotten by time."

Su Wanxing nodded. "Do I understand that our conversation will not be discovered?"

Zero One interrupted, "It's just that we won't be discovered for the time being. Once we come here, no one can escape the control of time and space."

"So the phenomenon similar to power shortage is your way of guiding me here?" Su Wanxing was curious.

Sanqi shook her head. "On the contrary, it is because of this phenomenon that we have the opportunity to find you."

Lingyi added, "This is not a lack of electricity. This means that the Lord God's power is not enough to support the entire space and time. In short, he is about to die."

Sanqi rolled her eyes, squeezed Lingyi into her palm, and stopped him from talking. "It's not as exaggerated as he said. Although this guy was thrown into the long river of the universe by Ling, he can still sense Ling's thoughts."

Su Wanxing's face was not very good. "Even if it's not that exaggerated, it's definitely not groundless. You come to me, you can help me stop it..."

"We can't help you." Sanqi resolutely shattered Su Wanxing's hope, "But the timeline allows us to meet at this moment, maybe you need some guidance."

Su Wanxing held his forehead wearily, "I don't know if I can express my dilemma here. I'm afraid of being wiped out, and I'm also afraid of not being able to save myself. I'm even more afraid of being powerless to change anything."

“Since this place is called the place that time forgot, it means that secrets that cannot be told can be listened to.” Sanqi comforted.

Su Wanxing cheered up a little, "I saw myself in the game copy, and the fourth cycle has begun."

"No, you misunderstood." Sanqi answered solemnly, "You saw your past self."

Su Wanxing's brain seemed to be hit by a sledgehammer and resonated like a pendulum. The echoes were like the chanting of a golden singing bowl, weaving her messy thoughts into clear patterns bit by bit.

"I understand."

In this seemingly empty space and time, she can see the past, present and future of any planet, but she has no way of interfering with it and can only rely on factors such as the environment to influence it.

On this timeline, if Su Wanxing's current state is taken as the main anchor point, then all previous gaming experiences become the past of the main anchor point, and the subsequent...

Su Wanxing suddenly thought of the advertisement she saw every time she logged into the game copy. The figure of the female warrior in it was particularly similar to hers, and then combined it with her experience of shooting the advertisement.

"I..." Su Wanxing still couldn't believe it, "I saw myself a long time ago."

The advertisement before each copy started was her future reminding her present not to go astray, but she didn't notice!

Just like she is now trying to warn her past self not to fall into the abyss by shooting commercials.

"Time really plays tricks on people." Su Wanxing said unwillingly.

Sanqi smiled gently, "It's not too late for you to know now."

Yes, Su Wanxing calmed down and thought carefully about the advertisements before entering each dungeon. She had inadvertently replicated the advertisement content twice. Next... she remembered that the female warrior wanted to take off her mask, but she disappeared before she could see it clearly.

No more ads appeared after that.

Does that mean that the newcomer who cleared the level last time was her? She was wiped out at some point in the future!

And she, the main anchor point at this moment, has once again arrived at the terminal of time and space, repeating the cycle again and again, going on endlessly.

Therefore, she cannot end the cycle just by reminding herself. This is not the termination condition for the end of the cycle. No matter how she explicitly or implicitly indicates, she will reach the end of time and space, and she will continue to walk in the Möbius strip, never stopping.

After figuring it out, Su Wanxing felt that his thoughts were much smoother. "Sanqi, can we talk about the relationship between you and Yiling now?"

"Do you believe that there are other worlds outside this world?" Sanqi asked suddenly.

Su Wanxing thought, "Although I can't find any scientific basis, I believe it."

"That's a much easier analogy." Sanqi elaborated, "You can think of our world as a large computer, with the hardware divided into the host and external devices. The host is the space-time terminal, and the external devices can be regarded as the real world. The real world here refers to the [world outside the world] that we cannot see through."

“It’s an interesting metaphor.”

"Naturally, the computer's software is managed by the Crisis Management Bureau and the Space-Time Administration. We may be the data link layer for computer data transmission, but who knows? This is just a metaphor of mine."

Sanqi continued, "My entanglement with Yiling started when I was addicted to the world of novels. Well, I admit that I was indeed addicted to novels at the time and could not extricate myself. I neglected the management of the space-time terminal, which allowed Yiling to take advantage of the loophole."

Lingyi said in dissatisfaction, "Come on, what other manager would go to the novel world to play cosplay like you? By the way, NPC House was developed from that time."

“But I didn’t let the space-time terminal fall into chaos, right? At that time, everyone only needed to manage the travel between the novel worlds and the cleaning of abnormal data. Who would have to deal with that crappy game all day long like now?” Sanqi said indignantly.

Lingyi argued, "I don't even want to say anything to you, you love-brained person! Programs should not have emotional support. These are Lingyi's original words, so you deserve to step down!"

"If it weren't for the plan proposed by Yi Ling, Su Wanxing's world wouldn't have been invaded by the game, and they could have lived a normal life!"

"You're wrong." Lingyi retorted, "Without Ling's novel world clearing plan, the entire space-time will be destroyed!"

Su Wanxing vaguely understood the general situation from the quarrel, "What is the plan to clear the novel world?"

"As the number of novel worlds increases, the memory of time and space is insufficient. If left unattended, this place will crash sooner or later and all life will die." Lingyi repeated, "So Yiling proposed to clear out the unpopular and unloved novel worlds and leave behind masterpieces that will be remembered forever."

Lingyi: "However, due to protests from many parties, Lingyi finally decided to compete fairly in the form of games, leaving behind those characters that were still somewhat useful in the world of novels, and giving them a chance to reincarnate themselves, so various games were born."

Su Wanxing thought it was absurd and ridiculous. "If there are other worlds outside this world, are we considered two-dimensional creatures or some insignificant data? But we are all bright red lives!"

"No matter how small the universe is, it has its own dimension." Sanqi said regretfully, "But sometimes I have to admit that Yiling's decision might be correct."

Su Wanxing: "No, we shouldn't be responsible for the mistake. Maybe it's not a big problem in the eyes of the outside world. We can't consume ourselves internally."

"Do you have an idea?" Lingyi asked happily.

"I want to find Zhou Tian. How can I avoid being discovered by the space-time terminal?"

Lingyi was uneasy. "What do you want to do? Although meeting the Lord God privately will cost you a huge price, the Space-Time Terminal will not punish you unless you want to violate some unwritten rules."

"I do have this idea, so can I avoid being discovered?"

Sanqi said: "Hiding is not advisable, because the space-time terminal supervises every employee equally, but as long as you are valuable."

Su Wanxing understood. Yi Ling had said before that as long as the laws of time and space were violated, one might be punished, but it said it was possible, not certain. Only when combined with the values ​​​​mentioned by Sanqi, like the values ​​​​of Zhou Tian, ​​would violations be allowed.

"It doesn't need to be valuable," Su Wanxing had an idea, "it just needs to be powerful enough."

Lingyi was completely shocked by this, "Even if the possibility is extremely low, I admire your courage."

Sanqi gave a worried smile, "If I don't trust you, who else can the world put its hope in?"

The conversation with Sanqi and Lingyi ended here. Su Wanxing walked out of the endless path alone again, and everything in the Space-Time Administration came into view.

But from this moment on, Su Wanxing no longer felt that she was fighting alone. Behind her were not only her family, friends and lover, but also herself who was struggling in different timelines!

Back at his workstation, Su Wanxing continued to open Luo Ci's employee dialog box and sent: Do you still remember the virus program I taught you to write before?

Luo Ci replied almost immediately: What? Are you so bored that you started studying viruses?

Su Wanxing: Let’s meet. I really need your help this time.
