Where should we begin?

Wen Zuo: I'll go exchange for a voice-restoring drug first.

"Okay, go ahead, we'll wait for you." Mo Shuwan nodded. While Wen Zuo went to exchange for the voice-restoring medicine, she took out paper and pen from her storage space. Suddenly, she paused, opened her phone and looked at the items in her storage space. In fact, they hadn't used many of the things they had exchanged in the game world this time.

The game world is different from all the worlds they've encountered before, and they basically can't use the exchanged items when doing quests. Now they've saved a lot, even having thirteen lucky coins left.

After staring silently at the items in the storage space for a few seconds, Mo Shuwan turned off her phone, lowered her head, and began to write and draw with paper and pen.

Liu Dongcheng next to her did the same thing. Only Chen Jiaxu looked at Mo Shuwan and then at Liu Dongcheng. Finally, he probably felt that it was not good to just sit there doing nothing, so he also took out paper and pen from the storage space and imitated Mo Shuwan and the others' posture to write and draw on the paper.

Wen Zuo returned quickly after exchanging for the voice-restoring medicine. This time, they rarely had the opportunity to exchange information in the cycle of reincarnation, and the changes they encountered at the end were relatively chaotic. They also needed to sort out that information in their minds first.

Half an hour later, Mo Shuwan, Wen Zuo, and Liu Dongcheng stopped writing almost simultaneously. Chen Jiaxu, who was next to them, saw that they had all stopped, so he also stopped writing and then folded his paper in embarrassment.

Mo Shuwan placed several sheets of paper in the middle, "Let's talk about the second major hurdle first."

Chen Jiaxu nodded quickly; he was probably the most confused person here right now.

"After leaving the first major pass, we went directly into the second major pass. When we entered, our mission was to build a desert city within a month and have one hundred residents within that month."

As she spoke, Mo Shuwan circled a dot on one of the papers. "After we went in, we stood here. The second major challenge was really easy. We completed the task smoothly and then entered the third major challenge even more easily."

Chen Jiaxu was a little confused. "Captain, where did this third challenge come from? Didn't we only go through two challenges? This so-called third challenge is just a trap in the game."

Mo Shuwan sighed and gently shook her head. "No, we went through three major challenges. What you said about the traps is true, but the third challenge wasn't the trap. The second challenge was the trap. We passed the second challenge so easily, so we were bound to have doubts. It was this doubt that led us completely into the trap created by the game. After entering the third challenge, the scene we saw was exactly the same as the second challenge. Before that, we had already doubted the mission of the second challenge, so when we saw this identical scene, we thought we were still in the second challenge. From here, we stepped into the cycle of reincarnation created by the game."

Sitting next to him, Wen Zuo silently placed a drawing he had just made on the ground. He had roughly drawn a desert on the paper and then divided it in the middle with a door. The left side of the door was the second major pass, and the right side was the third major pass, but the scenes on both sides were exactly the same.

Chen Jiaxu, who was initially confused and didn't quite understand, finally understood after seeing Wen Zuo's picture. "Then why did we come back after Yang Zhou drank the soup in the end?"

"Let's talk slowly," Mo Shuwan said in a low voice. "The nodes in the cycle of reincarnation are the places where we hid when we encountered the storm after entering the second major level. Each cycle begins with the desert city that we created with our own hands, and ends with us at another node, from where we hid. And every time we die, we are assimilated a little more. Before Yang Zhou woke me up, we were convinced of our identity."

Soon, Wen Zuo and Liu Dongcheng also joined the discussion.

At that time, they had all lost themselves, living aimlessly among Ah Xiang and the other people created by the game. Yang Zhou, by chance, was awakened by hope and the stratosphere. In order to save Mo Shuwan and the others, he chose the identity of a monster, wanting to go back to the past and change the outcome. However, when they entered the third level, they had already fallen into the game's trap. Yang Zhou did not know that they were no longer in the second level, and that the things they thought had happened had never occurred in the third level.

So when Yang Zhou thought he could stop it, he had already pushed himself and Mo Shuwan and the others into the cycle of reincarnation step by step. Every time Yang Zhou went through a cycle with them, they would all become weaker. Mo Shuwan and the others, who could have discovered the truth and woken up by some details, instead became more and more trapped. In the end, they could only wake up by external forces.

As for Yang Zhou, who was a monster, he was gradually assimilated by the world of reincarnation. He began to believe that he was a real monster. When he woke up Mo Shuwan, Mo Shuwan became suspicious of A Xiang, who was the core of the world of reincarnation, and Yang Zhou appeared in Mo Shuwan's side in another form by the world of reincarnation.

The two people are actually one person. Of course, the monster could not kill Yang Zhou, but if Yang Zhou did not die, the cycle of reincarnation could not begin. That is why the monster buried Yang Zhou alive after Mo Shuwan died.

"When I grabbed Yang Zhou's hand, he gently squeezed mine, and that's when I realized he hadn't completely lost himself. He was still conscious, but for some reason he had to pretend to be in a dazed and selfless state." Mo Shuwan frowned, trying to sort out all the jumbled information in her mind.

To be honest, although she can see most of the problems from an outsider's perspective now, there are still some details that she can't figure out. For example, Ah Xiang, who followed her in the end, was indeed killed by her. Judging from the later situation, it seems that she played a role, but Ah Xiang was still there in the end.
