Chapter 315 The meaning of Easter egg fragments
In the world of endless tasks, the word "system" is synonymous with ruthlessness, horror, killing, and machinery.
There are tens of thousands of task worlds and hundreds of millions of taskers. Every day, countless taskers lose their humanity, fall into madness, and die.
The system that controls everyone is always just a cold, mechanical electronic voice. It will not pay attention to your pain, will not care because you bleed, will not sympathize with you because you cry, and will not stop when you are desperate.
It will only give tasks, points and rewards. Only those who hold on can become stronger, and only those who become stronger are qualified to continue to live.
Only by challenging the difficult S-level tasks again and again can you have the opportunity to return to the peaceful world and enjoy a period of peaceful life.
For the taskers, no matter how strong they become, the word "system" is always frightening.
And now, Leng Mian said that Xing Min is You Xi's system?
They all knew that You Xi was bound to another system, but they would never have thought that this man who followed You Xi in a protective manner was actually her system! ?
"I'm so jealous, your system is so down-to-earth!" You Zhenzhen looked up and down at Xing Min again. His appearance, which was already pleasing to the eye, seemed to shine even more because of this extraordinary identity.
It was like a young handsome guy suddenly told her that he was not only handsome but also rich, not only rich but also a super talented top boss, and now this rich and handsome boss is guarding her mother all the way alone. It's really exciting to think about it.
"Strictly speaking, he is not a system." You Xi looked at Xing Min. Since she knew his past, he could no longer be associated with the words system, intelligent electronics, and intelligent life in her eyes.
He and she were both life forms in this universe. It was only by chance that their spaces overlapped and they were bound.
It was also because Xing Min transferred part of the authority of the spaceship to You Xi, and the spaceship system was bound to it. This time, he directly obtained partial control of the system tower mission world from You Xi.
What was originally planned to be completed in decades or even hundreds of years was pushed forward by more than half in an instant. Xing Min could clearly sense the existence of many mission worlds. Now they only needed to wait for them to return to the native world and restart the spaceship system once, so that they could directly take over some mission worlds, which naturally included the worlds that had been anchored by You Xi before.
How to operate it in detail and how many functions this master control includes all require going back and trying step by step, slowly learning and understanding.
Xing Min's identity is a bit complicated to explain, and it also involves the source of System T and the mission world. Even if he wants to explain, this is not a good place to do it now.
The countdown on their mobile phones is still going on. If they don't find all the Easter egg fragments before the time is up, they still can't leave the endless train world.
The movement in the observation car has attracted the attention of other crew members on the train. They are just immune to the "Golden Train", which does not mean that the crew on the train can't see them. Excessive actions will still attract the crew's entanglement.
Leng Mian motioned for everyone to disperse and continue to search for fragments. As for her, although she was an NPC now, she had awakened, and with someone to pick her up outside the world, she had her own way to leave.
However, she would wait until everyone found the Easter egg fragments and left smoothly before leaving together.
"After everyone gets the fragments, go to the garden carriage to meet. It's not open at this time." You Xi closed the door of the carriage, pressed the destination carriage, swiped her bracelet, pushed the door open and walked out.
**
The carriage door closed behind her, and the surroundings immediately fell into darkness.
The dim induction lights automatically lit up. This was a space similar to an automatic control room, with several carriage doors around. The numbers on the carriage doors were preceded by letters, and they were not in the carriage display list on the wristbands of these passengers.
She looked through the different functional carriages led by the doors on the bracelet one by one, and finally stopped at the three words "Raw Material Room".
She found the door of the carriage corresponding to the raw material room. The bracelet showed that the raw material rooms were numbered from 1 to 20, which means that there are a total of 20 carriages that are raw material rooms.
Each carriage of the golden train is very large. What kind of raw materials require 20 carriages to store?
Her intuition told her that these raw material rooms are the carriages she is looking for.
She randomly selected a raw material room number and unlocked the door with the bracelet.
The door opened, and the light from the control room shone through the door. The familiar glass tubes stood there neatly, emitting a cold light in the darkness.
Sure enough, the carriage marked as the raw material room on the attendant's bracelet was the carriage she was in the last time she woke up from the virtual world.
To the golden train, are these living people just raw materials?
"The brilliance in the darkness", it is these beautiful and precious memories in the minds of the passengers that transform the endless darkness outside the train window into a magnificent and wonderful scenery. It is they who turn the desperate darkness into brilliant hope.
Youxi stood in the carriage full of glass tubes, and a message popped up on her mobile phone after she confirmed her thoughts.
Easter Egg (activated): Fragment collection rate (100%), number of fragments on this site: 1 (collected)
Available Easter Egg fragments: 1 (view? Yes/No)
After she clicked to view, a huge amount of information and memory images rushed into her mind. These information not only included the method of leaving the endless train world, but also all the situations in the mission world.
After a moment, Youxi's eyes suddenly widened. It turned out that it was like this!
Later, Youxi left the "raw material car" and went to the garden car that had been agreed before, waiting for the arrival of other partners.
Everyone is smart. Although they searched in the wrong places at first, they soon found their own memory fragments after analysis and investigation. Even if some of them did not collect 80% of the memory fragments before, as long as they can get the last most critical fragment, they can still get the method to leave and a lot of information in the reality of this mission world.
You Zhenzhen hadn't seen Leng Mian for a long time, and was too curious about her NPC identity this time, so she kept Leng Mian with her during the whole process of searching for fragments.
An hour later, Tang Yatong, Xing Min, and You Zhenzhen were the first to find their own Easter egg fragments and came to the garden carriage.
Twenty minutes later, Lin Wu also came.
When he came, You Xi and others were talking about the scenes in the virtual world.
What immerses them are the scenes they hope to happen and see in their hearts, but the length of time each person stays in the virtual world is different.
Tang Yatong's dream timeline is very long. After returning to the end of the world, they fought with the system tower. After the victory, the entire system collapsed, the mission world returned to its original state, and she returned to the original world - back to before all the disasters happened.
Youqi is still alive, the world is peaceful, she and Youqi are responsible for making money to support the family, and Youxi continues to study.
Somehow, You Zhenzhen appeared in the lives of the three people. She was still a high school student, but she was even more rebellious than You Xi before. She was always making trouble and letting others clean up the mess...
You Zhenzhen was dissatisfied and protested, saying that she had stopped being rebellious and that she was now You Xi's sweetheart. But after the protest, she realized how Tang Yatong knew what she was like in high school.
As a result, she saw You Xi and Tang Yatong smiling in tacit understanding, as if there was something that they both knew, but she was kept in the dark.
It was also at this time that You Zhenzhen realized that the "Qu Yichen" in the original world was not the real Qu Yichen for several years, but Tang Yatong!
"No wonder! I thought Qu Yichen suddenly fell in love with my mother and wanted to be my father!" You Zhenzhen supported her forehead. Now thinking back, everything can be traced.
"Qu Yichen" suddenly smoked, and "he" would always look at her with a helpless look, and would press her head like an adult...
In her memory, although her original life collapsed due to the disaster and she encountered many difficulties, she lived very comfortably and happily in those years because she had You Xi and "Qu Yichen" by her side.
They protected her so well that in You Zhenzhen's virtual world, she completely skipped the real mission world outside the infinite train and went directly back to the time when she was on the big ship.
In her dream, crossing the border of the world, meeting Leng Mian, and entering the world of the endless train was just a dream.
In the fragmented world, Youxi did not die, and she did not cross the boundary of the world by mistake. Instead, one day Leng Mian and Tang Yatong suddenly crossed the boundary of the world and appeared in their world.
She lived on the big ship with Youxi, Leng Mian and Tang Yatong until she gave birth to a child, until Youxi and the other three grew old, and they and their families lived for many, many years...
That was a beautiful dream in her heart, and another possibility in her life.
Although the fragmented world is small, as long as her family is by her side, she feels very happy even if she is trapped there for the rest of her life.
Leng Mian gently touched her head: "Yes, the peaceful and ordinary happy life you expect will come soon."
You Zhenzhen looked at You Xi, Leng Mian and Tang Yatong: "But, if you are not by my side, how can I be happy alone?"
Especially You Xi, she knew very well that she came from another dimension of the world, which was not the mission world under the system tower. She had her own family there, but she could not go to that world.
"Now it's different from before. Part of the control of the mission world is with your mother, and the other part is with me. Although it is not clear how to operate it now, we will work together to change these worlds again, and then try to find a way. We have a lot of time..."
When Leng Mian comforted You Zhenzhen, Xi Yuan finally got the Easter egg fragment and came to the garden carriage.
The others were curious about the three boys' dreams in the virtual world. After asking, only Lin Wu spoke frankly.
It turned out that he had also returned to his original world and woke up in a hospital bed with his friends by his side. He couldn't tell for a moment whether everything he had experienced before was real or illusory.
He recovered quickly and was discharged from the hospital, and resumed his original life. Then one day when he was crossing the road, he saw Youxi.
He stopped and looked at her, but she didn't recognize him at all. When he was surprised to recall the scenes in the mission world, the surroundings changed suddenly. Countless black monsters appeared from nowhere and swarmed into the crowd, biting and fighting, breaking the tranquility of the city.
He saw You Xi in the crowd, not dodging, suddenly took out a Tang sword and rushed forward to fight, and he quickly reacted, picked up a stick and joined the battle...
Tang Yatong couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "Other people's dreams are peaceful, but you have to continue fighting after entering the virtual dream world..."
You Zhenzhen patted him on the shoulder: "Brother Wu, a model worker! Thumbs up for you!"
Lin Wu: ...
After listening to Lin Wu's dream, everyone's eyes fell on Xing Min and Xi Yuan again.
Xi Yuan's expression became visibly uncomfortable, and Xing Min didn't say anything. The expressions of the two were very intriguing.
You Zhenzhen originally wanted to ask more questions, but her attention was quickly diverted by another thing that You Xi said.
**
You Xi was talking about the "raw material compartment".
According to what No. 17 said before, there seem to be many black voids where the endless train world travels, and the one they are in should be full of humans.
No. 17 said that the passengers in this black void are the easiest to deceive, which should mean that the most passengers are trapped in the special station of the golden train.
Although the entire endless train world tolerates passengers fighting and fighting, if you look at it from a broader perspective, there is actually no necessary reason for all the passengers to become enemies. Their real enemy is the entire endless train world.
After figuring out the real enemy and knowing what the enemy is doing, it seems too "unworthy" to do nothing before they leave.
Everyone quietly finished their plans and began to make arrangements.
Half an hour later, after finishing the arrangement, everyone returned to the Garden Carriage and took out their mobile phones.
On the screen of their Endless Train mobile phones, an item that was originally hidden appeared.
After clicking it, a prompt dialog box will pop up.
Prompt: Do you confirm to leave the Endless Train? (Yes/No) (Note: This option is a hidden option, which appears after finding the special station Easter egg fragments of the Golden Train. This option is irreversible, please choose carefully.)
This time's way of leaving is much more logical than the previous false way of leaving given by the Golden Train.
All their information is obtained from the Endless Train mobile phone. No matter how the station changes, the information given by the mobile phone is the only standard.
After everyone looked at each other, they pressed the confirmation button and left.
You Xi was worried whether Leng Mian could really leave the endless train world. After Tang Yatong, You Zhenzhen, Lin Wu and Xi Yuan disappeared in the carriage, he signaled Leng Mian to leave first.
"Don't worry, I can leave. After leaving here, I will go directly back to the inner tower, but the time there is different from the time in the mission world and your native world. It may take a long time for us to see each other again - if there is a chance to see each other again." Leng Mian opened her arms and hugged her.
"I will try my best, I will always be here." She also said this to her when she was in the zombie world. The difference is that she said this at that time because she was reluctant to say goodbye, but now, it is because You Xi believes that they will definitely meet again.
After Leng Mian's body disappeared from the carriage, You Xi looked at Xing Min who was waiting on the side: "Let's go."
She took out her mobile phone, and the finger that wanted to press the screen was gently held by Xing Min.
"What's wrong?" You Xi looked up at the other party.
He lowered his head and looked at her, took her fingers in his palm, and said slowly: "After we go out, I shouldn't look like this when you see me."
"I know, your current appearance is changed according to your own wishes after entering the endless train world, and it is closer to your original appearance."
"Hmm..." His eyelashes drooped, and the scene in the dream of the virtual world appeared in front of him again. It was an indescribable beautiful dream. Now that it has been so long that he has completely forgotten the time, he has his own body again and lives as Xing Min, a Tyne star.
He no longer needs to rely on other people's bodies, and can hug her as himself - the complete Xing Min.
But dreams are just dreams after all. He returned to reality, and he knew clearly that once he left here, he would not even be able to maintain the appearance that was closest to himself at this moment and stand in front of her.
So -
his eyelashes fluttered slightly, and his eyes fell on You Xi's lips, then he lowered his head and put his lips in front of her: "So, before you leave, while I am still Xing Min, take a bite."
The man tilted his head slightly, his jaw drew a perfect arc, his eyes half-closed, and from her angle she couldn't see his eyes at the moment.
Only the ears facing her were slowly being stained with blush.
It's not that You Xi has no experience in love, not to mention that he has hinted to this extent.
She once thought about biting him to see his reaction, but it was just a momentary thought at that time, and she felt that it didn't mean anything.
But now, looking at the corners of the man's lips, she was really moved.
She put her hands around his neck and her lips touched the corner of his lips, but stopped before touching: "What if I don't want to bite?"
She felt the neck under her fingers tremble slightly, as if a string that was broken to the extreme due to tension was about to be torn. Seeing him like this, she was reluctant to tease him.
You Xi circled his neck, bit the corner of his lips lightly, and then licked the bitten place.
It was cool, soft, and a little delicious.
She retracted her tongue to feel it, and in his slightly depressed eyes that were cast at her, she raised her lips again, kissed him on the lips, and then smiled at him: "Which of the three do you like more?"
The man looked at her for a moment with deep eyes, and reached out to hold her tightly in his arms.
"Xiaoxi, if..." His voice rang in her ears, but he didn't finish.
If he wasn't a consciousness integrated into the spaceship system, if he had a body... how great it would be.
Youxi felt the strength of his embrace, held his waist, and patted him on the back: "It's good now, there are so many mission worlds, we work together, we can always find a way..."
**
An hour after Youxi and Xingmin's bodies disappeared from the carriage, the twenty "raw material carriages" of the golden train at the special station suddenly malfunctioned at the same time, the circuit was disconnected, the claw-shaped metal buckles loosened, and the passengers who were fixed in the glass tube like objects woke up one after another.
They were forced to pull back their consciousness from the virtual dream, and immediately woke up because of the severe pain in their bodies.
Everyone is an experienced passenger who has passed through countless stations. Once they wake up and understand what happened, the glass tubes around them can no longer trap them.
In front of a common enemy, some passengers who were once wary of each other became particularly united.
When the first person realized that the golden train might be a special station, the train stewards and crew members who were still using perfect service to paralyze the new passengers on the train did not know that a large "hurricane" was about to sweep the entire golden train.
**
It was as if a body that had been stiff for a long time began to move again.
Youxi opened her eyes in a carriage. The train was stopped and did not move. The door opened, and someone walked in from outside and quickly helped the people in the carriage up.
Those people were wearing light space suits, the style in her memory. Youxi raised her hands and found that she was wearing the same space suit, then she breathed a sigh of relief.
She was supported out of the train, and the moment she stepped out of the train, her body immediately fell into a state of weightlessness.
This part of the train passed by one side of the space station, one end was facing the endless universe, and the other end was facing the planet in front of them.
Even though she had seen it in the last piece of Easter egg fragment, seeing it with her own eyes at this moment, Youxi still felt a shock that made her scalp tingle.
