Chapter 70 Bai Ye: Well done! Make it more intense!
【warn! warn! The host used his own [Indifference] condensate to prevent the fusion evolution of the Blood Butterfly and the Dusk Fire Demon King, which seriously changed the plot points and deducted all popularity points. 】
The red warning symbol flashed wildly in front of Bai Ye and Wonder's sight. No matter how Bai Ye changed his perspective, he could not escape. The intense pain coming from deep in his brain almost crushed him in an instant. Although he barely paid the price by deducting all his popularity points, t173 was still very angry and gave him a big lesson through the screen bound to his soul.
[The plot anchor point has been detected. Next, please make a choice, dear host:]
T173's voice, which had just been obviously filled with anger, became calm again.
[1. Steal Ame Murasaki] [2. Kill Kagero] [3. Take away the Demon King's "core"]
Each of the three options is extremely deadly. Under the influence of t173, Wonder stopped moving and Bai Ye's eyes dimmed.
He still remembered the figure that he saw falling down on Tang Hongshan when he was peeking at the road of exploring destiny. That figure... was indeed not the witch who was stopped by him in time to follow the final fate of the divine way.
But...Kagero...Mizuiro, Suzuran, or anyone else. Bai Ye sighed and chose the only option he could choose without hesitation. Unfortunately, the next second, the error message of the system exploded in the ears of the thief and the devil player at the same time. Bai Ye, who was protected in the center by the Squid Detective Agency, seemed to see a chaotic blood color in a trance. In the depths of the vortex of data, the sound of t173 reappeared in an absolutely cold electronic sound. The task bar that had just been issued disappeared as the choice was made, but the electronic light screen did not disappear.
[(Error) The plot anchor point has been detected (Error) Next, dear host, please complete the following content (Error)]
In the center of the battlefield, Bai Ye, who had regained his consciousness, opened his eyes wide. He watched as the T173 panel, which was completely swallowed by red and used (error) as punctuation, revealed new content.
[Each demon king corresponds to the death of an important character (based on Yu Yu)]
[Quest (Error) Witness the grand death of the following characters. 】
【Real Name Liberation】
[1. Blood Butterfly][2. Yang Yan]
The two options were clearly laid out before him. Bai Ye lowered his head and let out a barely perceptible sigh.
He raised his head, his cobalt blue eyes were still bright and shining, with a rationality and determination that made people despair.
Blood Butterfly is using the soul weapon he finally recovered to face the body of the demon god. The battle between consciousness and body is taking place on a cliff not far away.
Kagero and Saotome Rin were fighting with Enryuchi almost at the risk of their lives, while the Squid Detective Agency, who had a strong desire for revenge, was at the outermost edge of the central battlefield, dealing with the monsters that kept crawling out of the hot springs, and sending the soul particles of those who had been used as soup ingredients to the afterlife.
"Do you think I would choose to let Yang Yan die because of the power of the blood butterfly? ...No."
Bai Ye frowned and stretched out his hand with a terrifying expression. A black halo-like shadow enveloped the screen of T173. The next second, [The Indifference of the Righteous Man of the Black Sun] shielded the screen from the depths of his soul and shattered it into particles.
But even so, his expression was a little too ugly. Fortunately, the Squid Detective Agency was struggling with the large number of flesh-and-blood dolls and did not notice his location for the time being.
"It's okay... It's okay, I will find a way to solve it, even if I don't know... what the solution is."
Bai Ye gritted his teeth, ready to just ignore the blood-red mission issued by t173. At worst, he would control wonder to seriously injure each other to the point where they were unable to move, to prevent t173 from controlling his body and posing a threat to his companions here.
He had just made up his mind, but the next second, he saw the blue and red pixel screen belonging to the DM system suddenly appeared in front of him automatically.
[An abnormal intrusion has been detected... The DM system has started automatic processing - players are requested to continue to enjoy the "joyful" game world~]
[(Error) Congratulations to Bai Ye for completing the achievement: [Reversing the Future. 】(Error) Current Eden Garden Live Popularity Summary: 2231 (Error)】
The DM system seemed to be aware of the existence of t173 and directly blocked t173's mandatory tasks, just like a righteous 360 cleaning guard that swooped down from the sky to sweep away the t173 virus.
However... it was also counterattacked by t173, the data fell into complete chaos, and the entire screen began to flicker violently. T173 and the DM system seemed to have entered into some degree of confrontation, and the binary picture composed of 10 covered Bai Ye's entire vision.
Although he didn't know the relationship between the DM system and t173, Bai Ye was happy to see it happen. Since it was already so chaotic, let him... add another detail.
Countless data chains passed before Bai Ye's eyes. Bai Ye's eyes lit up. The cobalt blue of the sky turned into a wonder-like starry sky in an instant. [Miracle] descended at this moment. The next second, the data was quickly gathered. With the help of [Miracle], the DM system gained an absolute upper hand.
The red color was completely suppressed. The online popularity value counted by Eden replaced the electronic screen data on t173 which had become "0", but the DM system did not stop there. The direct collision of the two systems seemed to have triggered some chain reaction. Error garbled codes began to jump around. Bai Ye was relieved and hurriedly took a few steps back, fearing that he would be hit by the jumping data.
[Popularity value dissolved into (wrong) character importance]
[Player Bai Ye (wrong) data...]
[Correction completed, player Bai Ye, the data is correct.] 】
[The game continues.] 】
At the moment the data chain exploded, the light screen of the DM system disappeared in front of Bai Ye, and severe pain spread all over his body. That was the price he paid for using his ability to intervene in the dispute between the two major systems. Even without him, the DM system still had absolute dominance in the game, but it still charged Bai Ye a lot of soul particles as fees.
I hope that Saotome-san will give him more opportunities so that he can take the knife away without too much trouble. Otherwise, if t173 doesn't help him store the price now, he will faint here because he can't hold on.
Bai Ye silently held onto the tree beside him, suppressing the intense pain deep in his soul, and relying on his willpower to support the two soul particle clones present.
Although it hurt, he still wanted to laugh.
Because, because... it seems that the path he set at the beginning was correct, and the DM system can really become his final trump card against t173.
"It looks like I'm going to lose, to the two of you..."
Facing Ame Murakami who had killed the Yamata-no-Orochi, even the veteran demon apostle had his weapon easily knocked away. Enryuchi looked at Saotome Rin with a sneer and let the opponent's sword cross his shoulder.
"What? You regret it now? It's too late."
Saotome Rin pressed the knife firmly against his artery, her voice as cold as ice.
"Regret? Hahahaha, even though I was defeated by you, it doesn't matter———!" After hearing Saotome Rin's voice, Enrochi suddenly laughed as if he had heard a joke: "Because I will never regret it!"
"I will not regret it, even if I die, because if I were a good person, I would have ended up like you now."
Enrochi stared into Saotome Rin's eyes and spoke word by word.
"Even if you hand me over to the Sun Metropolitan Police Department, the ending will not change at all. This world is destined to be destroyed, and you..."
Yuan Luzhi sneered and swallowed the words he was about to say.
The loud explosion drowned out his unfinished words. Saotome Rin and Yang Yan raised their heads suddenly and looked in the direction of the blood butterfly.
"Go to sleep, you demon that shouldn't be here."
Xuedie looked at the giant snake struggling violently in the mountain because the energy transmission had been broken. Its rotten bones had been broken into pieces. She drew her bow and arrow. The blood-red energy gathered on the sharp arrow. The huge arrow was aimed and ready to be fired, waiting for the demon king's rotten bone body to move to the most suitable position and expose its vital points.
No one knows the Demon King's weakness better than the Demon King's consciousness. Huge soul particles like a blood moon were gathered by the blood butterfly. The terrible energy fluctuations almost set off a storm, forcing all the people below to start steadying themselves. The blood butterfly narrowed her eyes, and the crowd had disappeared from her sight at this moment.
In this world, there was only her looking at it, and the tall Tang Hongshan Mountain as a backdrop.
"さようなら(Farewell)."
Blood Butterfly looked at the suffering giant snake and spoke in the language of the traditional hymn of Night Island.
"Leave here, you demon species that do not belong to this world."
She loosened her hand.
The arrow that shot from the bow and could destroy demons followed the predetermined trajectory and rushed towards the giant snake below. Countless butterflies fluttered and entangled the snake's head, nailing it deep into the mountain. The collapsed boulders submerged the giant snake again, and the broken stones piled up together, setting off a terrible storm.
After the dust and fog passed, Yuan Luzhi's last hope was nailed to the depths of Tang Hongshan by the blood butterfly, which drained his soul particles. Several people looked up and saw each other with a dusty look on their faces, and couldn't help laughing.
Lily of the Valley held her fork and complained, "Oh my, my hair is all loose! This hairstyle looks so ugly!"
"No, no, it's beautiful! Very beautiful!"
Shuise and Youyu waved to Linglan who came out of the ruins: "What are you talking about!"
“…It’s finally over…”
Saotome Rin sighed, Bai Ye stood at the end of everyone, suppressing the headache that was still very noticeable. In a trance, he felt a cool breeze brushing across his ears.
“It’s…snowing?”
Bai Ye raised his head.
It was snowing all over Huangquan Town. Snow fell on every inch of the gloomy Tanghong Mountain, on the pale hills where the trees had died, and on the broken and dirty snow, making it white again... No one spoke. At the last moment of the end, they all stood in the snow, listening to the ice crystals drifting slowly between heaven and earth, drifting slowly, just like the final lonely destination of this famous town, Huangquan Town, falling on every person 8 years ago and 8 years later.
Xuedie closed her eyes, looked towards the shrine, and shed a tear.
The tears that Chizuru shed when she left, having stopped everything, now finally she has the right to shed them.
[Oh my, congratulations to the players for successfully solving the main storyline superposition event "Corruption and Plague Yellow Spring Town" and finding the evil murderer: the Demon King of Dusk Fire (Blood Butterfly). The moment of reunion is still going on. Players are requested to keep up the good work and continue to work hard to accumulate points!
See you next time————! Anyway, welcome back to the world of watches! 】
The DM system showed no signs of having just completed a data battle with t173, and its voice was still brisk and playful.
Between the red and blue outlines that symbolize the switching between the inner and outer worlds, Bai Ye finally couldn't hold on any longer. His soul was engulfed by pain and he completely lost consciousness.
