Su Yun looked at the man on the ground.
He was groaning in pain, his voice becoming weaker and weaker, and finally disappearing.
He is dead.
Alice was still holding his arm, and even without looking down, Su Yun could sense the young man's devout and fiery gaze.
All his attention was on me... Su Yun knew this very well - this dead person was insignificant to him.
This was the first time Su Yun saw a dead body. He thought he would be frightened, disgusted, and find it hard to accept, but the truth was that he felt calm inside.
There was no disturbance.
That’s right. After all, this is just a dream in a game. Who would be touched by the death of a virtual passerby on the mobile phone screen?
What’s more, the plot synopsis is the same as “A died of illness”.
So Su Yun heard himself say, "Let's go, there's nothing to see."
Then came Alice's cheerful voice: "Yes, my God."
They walked side by side on the muddy roads of the human city. Panicked crowds ran past them from behind. No one could see Su Yun and Alice, but they all avoided him involuntarily.
Su Yun suddenly felt that he was more like a ghost wandering in the human world rather than a god in this world.
Alice was still holding Su Yun's arm, leaning her head on his shoulder from time to time. Su Yun could even hear him humming a cheerful ballad, and the feeling of happiness almost overflowed from him.
Listening to such songs, Su Yun's mood gradually became brighter.
What am I worrying about? This is a dream, a game.
Alice is by my side, she needs me and can’t live without me, there will be more plague revivals in the future - they will all be with me, I am not alone.

"The viral plague will soon wake up, right?" Su Yun returned to the temple. He stood under the pillars of the holy book and the cross, gently stroking the solemn relief.
This huge pillar was already covered with cracks, and it was obvious that it was blocking the next plague.
"Is this child Theresa?" Su Yun couldn't help laughing, "I don't know how long he has been waiting in the pillar."
"It doesn't matter how long it takes." Alice said obediently, "It's our duty to wait for you."
Su Yun patted his head and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
34
Alice stood at the end of the hall, looking at God the Father, but God the Father didn't even look at him.
His God is touching the pillar, his God is waiting inside
Theresa.
No...it's so annoying.
Alice looked away sadly - this was the first time since he was resurrected that he took the initiative to look away from God.
The doting of God the Father really spoiled him, and he even became willful just because he hated Theresa.
What if the other brothers were resurrected? What would he do then? Just bow his head? Cling to the Father's robe and pray?
This is too much - how can this be - killing those annoying guys is not enough!! We have to make them pay.
Alice's hands were hidden in the folds of his robe. His weapons were hidden in his skeleton robe. They were countless sharp blades of varying lengths. Some had fierce blood grooves that could cut open blood vessels and quickly bleed; some had sharp and narrow blades that could cut through soft tendons and pick through hard bones...
They are all Alice's treasures. They will protect her God together with Alice, and they will also kill her annoying younger brothers together.
Violent emotions rolled like a tide, and Alice's expression gradually changed. He forced himself to raise his head and bit his lips tightly.
I need to smile sweeter, this won't work.
35
"Fire" is the source of the plague.
It is the original fear, the disaster in the magic box, and the source of the poisonous spring water.
Just like in the game, Su Yun can control all kinds of plagues, but this time six sevenths of them are "locked", and only bacteria and viruses are not subject to any restrictions.
This should be because Alice has been resurrected.
Su Yun turned his right palm upwards, and a small silver-blue flame appeared in his palm. It was small but warm, as if it had life.
Su Yun could hear the heartbeat from weak to strong.
"Wait a little longer." Su Yun touched the pillar, "Theresa, wait for us."
The little flame flickered, as if in response.
Sowing the seeds of fire is the last step in waking up the creature. Su Yun accepted this setting easily, just like he was in a game.
Alice walked up to him and he set his face very straight, trying to appear reliable.
Su Yun put the fire in his hand: "Alice, take it, it is your brother Theresa, go and sow the fire."
Alice took the fire with both hands and nodded heavily: "Father God, I will be back soon. Please wait for seven sunrises and moonsets."
36
Su Yun looked at Alice's departing back and slowly sat down on the throne. At this moment, the temple around him suddenly shook!
It was like the reflection in the water was shattered, and the next moment,
The temple and the throne were all gone.
Su Yun opened his eyes and saw the blurry sunset outside the window.
37
It was indeed a dream, whether it was that world or Alice who called him "Father God".
Su Yun rubbed his temples and stood up from the recliner. His glasses were hanging on the bridge of his nose, dangling precariously.
The late summer afternoon was drowsy, and he actually fell asleep on the recliner.
The clock on the wall pointed to six o'clock in the evening, just as the day was beginning to darken.
Su Yun looked at his empty apartment. It was cold and lifeless. The only thing on the dining table was the goods he had just purchased.
A large bunch of blooming scarlet roses, a small medicine bottle with the words "Zopiclone Tablets" on the label, and a bottle of wine in a light blue bottle.
Early autumn was approaching, and the wide-open balcony door let in the cold wind. Su Yun took two steps before realizing that his hands and feet were already cold.
The phone rang, he answered it and heard a gentle female voice:
[Xiaoyun, why haven't you been home these days? The weather is getting cold, remember to put on more clothes. ]
Su Yun was silent for a moment, and replied softly: "Okay...you should also keep warm."
His voice was as gentle as this female voice.
The woman sighed: [Just remember to take good care of yourself, Xiaoyun. Your brother’s birthday is on the 29th of this month… Mom hopes you can come.]
Su Yun pursed his lips and saw his reflection in the mirror in the entrance hall. He was a gentle young man, but his face was pale and his lips were white.
"Mom, I don't want to go."
Su Yun's gaze moved to the table and he saw the small medicine bottle.
The woman on the other end of the phone was stunned in astonishment. She had never thought that Su Yun would reject her. He said "I don't want to", not "can't" or "it's inconvenient".
[Why don't you want to come?] She asked, [This is your brother's coming-of-age ceremony, how can you not come? Even your father's family will come! We are all here, you don't have to feel embarrassed.]
Su Yun smiled helplessly.
It is precisely because both families are present that this child should disappear.
"Sorry, I don't want to." Su Yun replied in a low voice and then hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, he immediately turned off the phone, not caring at all about the second call that might come or the concern that might only be written in a text message.
Su Yun threw his cell phone onto the sofa. He turned his back to the balcony. The orange-red sunset stretched his shadow long and projected it onto the wall.
Dark shadows and off-white
The colored walls don't fit in.
After a long time, Su Yun staggered to the dining table. He poured out a few pills, but did not swallow them in the end.
For some reason, the thought that flashed through Su Yun's mind at this moment was Alice.
He hugged his arms and sang, his lively voice full of happiness.
Su Yun gave up. He opened the bottle cap and drank a few sips of the wine. His head began to ache as usual. He put down the bottle, went back to the bedroom, and threw himself on the bed.
38
Su Yun came back to his senses and realized that he seemed to be dreaming again.
This was still the "Divine Palace" he had dreamed of last time.
…This dream actually has continuity.
Oh yeah... where is Alice?
Although Su Yun was standing under a pillar in the temple, he could clearly sense Alice's location.
After all, this is his creation.
Su Yun decided to go to the mainland to take a look, without letting Alice know, and followed him to see him.
This is definitely not a lack of trust in Alice. He believes that Alice can complete his task 100% - 200% is possible.
He just wanted to go and see.
So Su Yun did just that.
He concealed his figure and descended to where Alice was.
Su Yun landed in a dead silent city.
The buildings here are low but basically intact, which shows that it has a relatively scientific planning. You can even find drainage systems in the city, although they are all blocked.
Clogged with corpses and filth.
39
Su Yun walked slowly in this dead city.
The ground was littered with dead bodies, both human and animal, of which the original forms could not be identified.
The streets, which could barely be seen in their original form, were filled with a foul stench, and in the distance there were large pits dug, the scene inside the pits was even more horrific.
The further you go into the city, the more large pits like this you will find. Some have been filled with soil, while others have not.
Humans didn't seem to know how to deal with the plague, so they chose to bury the bodies. However, these rotten bodies caused even more horrific infections after being buried.
Su Yun finally reached the center of the city. He saw the sacrificial hall and many public buildings. People who were barely alive were lying on the ground. They were treated better and had blankets under them. There was also a well not far away.
Yet there was no food, no medicine, no doctors, and only bodies and corpses outside.
...People are just waiting to die here because the city has been abandoned.
Although there are living people, it is still dead silent here.
The person was groaning in pain, without even a cry, just a dead sound.
Should we say that his professional foundation is solid? The scenes of these ancient civilizations encountering plague disasters are so realistic, as if they were real.
Su Yun recalled the literature he had read and the papers he had written, and found the corresponding places in this city one by one.
If this were the real world, Su Yun would have rushed to save them.
Su Yun walked forward slowly, filth would not stain his robe, he walked in the purgatory on earth, his heart was finally no longer calm.
But this sudden surge of emotion did not urge him to save people. On the contrary, Su Yun now wanted to kill everyone here and give them a quick and peaceful death.
This kind of cold and cruel idea was so strange that Su Yun was stunned in astonishment. After a long time, he turned and left.
There is no logic in dreams. Instead of thinking about this, it is better to go find Alice.
40
On the way to find Alice, Su Yun first met a little mouse.
The little mouse burrowed in the mountain of corpses. He pulled at the clothes of the dead, picked off the rough ornaments, collected the coins of the dead, and searched for cold, hard food.
It was impossible to tell the child's gender; he was very thin and skinny, but he looked very lively and didn't look sick at all.
Su Yun immediately became interested. He followed and observed carefully, and was surprised to find that the child was not infected with the disease.
He was immune to this strain of plague, also known as the "death plague."
The human population is huge, so there is always a possibility that there are some immune organisms.
The plague mutates extremely quickly, but there are always survivors in every devastating disaster.
This child is so lucky.
The lucky guy was not only looking for valuable things, he was also tearing the corpses apart to vent his anger. Su Yun watched for a while and suddenly realized that the corpses targeted by the little mouse were all those decent and high-class humans.
What's going on? Could it be that this child has a blood feud?
Su Yun smiled and suddenly became interested. He showed up and stood behind the child: "What's your name?"
"Ah!" The young child cried like a wild dog and rolled off the corpse. He wanted to run without even looking back, but an invisible force restrained him, making it impossible for him to move.
The little boy turned around tremblingly, and saw Su Yun. Then he froze and didn't move, as if he was frightened.
Su Yun suddenly realized a problem.
He doesn't know what he looks like now... but he guesses that the God of Death wouldn't be very handsome.
Su Yun looked at the frightened child and suddenly felt that it was boring.
"A new plague is coming. You are only immune to the Death Plague. You would have died in the new plague." He nodded at the boy, "But I give you the power to be immune to all plagues, and your descendants will randomly inherit one seventh of your luck."
Then Su Yun hid himself again, turned around and left.
This gift is just a spontaneous one. As for what his gift will bring, we will see in the future.
