Chapter 148 Fusion of Reality
If we use pi to explain it, you will find that the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter, the numbers after the decimal point extend infinitely, just like the infinite possibilities in this parallel universe.
Sometimes a choice will lead to different results, and the infinite possibilities derived from this choice will randomly occur in a parallel universe.
Perhaps in some world, a monkey randomly types out Hamlet on a typewriter.
“This simple circle contains countless possibilities, and we are just one of them.”
Baiyue narrated calmly, "You will follow the instructions in your dreams and decide countless times to embark on a journey to find the gods."
In the world line where Rong Le succeeds, Baiyue has actually experienced countless failures.
As he said at the beginning, it has been a long journey.
Tina remembered that there was no Baiyue in the world originally, because time had been reset in the future.
The former Rong Le died, so Bai Yue kept coming to his living side
After witnessing Rong Le's countless failures, Baiyue thought of his hometown, which also came from the City of Misty Mist. This strange mist could erode other worlds and would never stop expanding.
So for Rong Le, he pulled the foggy world into the church world, and based on his own dreams, became an important carrier of Rong Le's deification ceremony.
This is to increase more possibilities, but Baiyue forgets that dreams are also the real past.
So when Rong Le changed the module, it was equivalent to changing his past.
For the Baiyue, this decaying world has no meaning in existence, whether it is the original world they have long abandoned or the real world they are about to be drawn into.
He put his past self's consciousness into the module and fell in love with Rong Le. Baiyue was his humanity, and the system was his cruel divinity.
As a result, their fates are ultimately intertwined.
He tampered with the module and made his native world bloom with spring flowers.
Baiyue smiled and said, "Everything you have experienced is a necessary step in the ritual of becoming a god."
If Rong Le wants to become the God of Time and Space, he must tamper with the past, create new life experiences, leave anchor points, and construct traces of existence in order to deceive the laws of the universe and become a true absolute observer.
Choose one possibility from the infinite possibilities of the world as an anchor point to support the existence of the entire world line. When the anchor points of all modules are connected, the past is successfully tampered with and the deification ceremony is successful.
However, only interacting anchor points are stable enough, and only anchor points can prevent the observer from getting lost in the door.
This is another important step in the deification ceremony.
Construct a new past and leave a mark in everyone's heart, then all modules and everyone will be Rong Le's anchor
"But even at this level, we still can't escape the control of the Elemental Tribunal. We were stuck at this step for a long time until new possibilities emerged."
Bai Yue saw Rong Le's expression gradually becoming clear, and knew that he had understood all the key points.
That’s right, the real world that is about to be eroded by the foggy city is the only variable and the turning point of Rong Le’s fate.
If the tampering fails, the ritual will fail. He needs more stable anchors, and the impact of the real world cannot be underestimated. That is a world that even Fairlight cannot interfere with.
The last link was finally closed, and Rong Le finally embarked on the right path.
"So what you mean is that this time I'm facing that time point and have to go back to the real world."
Rong Le thought for a moment and said, "This possibility is very small."
Baiyue: "But it's not impossible."
This is the charm of the world line. No one knows what will happen in the future, but countless times of looking back will surely bring about real miracles.
Rong Le knew that she was being persuaded to agree to that crazy plan.
He must be killed by Baiyue at the critical moment of betraying the old bishop, when the other party summons the evil god to the world, and start the time and space reversal.
Then came the real world, a module that Fairlight couldn't interfere with.
This is his only chance to turn the tables. He must break out of the infinite loop before Fairlight completely controls the real world, otherwise it will be difficult to find a better opportunity.
Rong Le couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you afraid that I will doubt what you say?"
A truth that is too absurd and outrageous may not necessarily win his trust. Moreover, in his eyes, Baiyue is full of doubts, so what he says cannot be fully believed.
He saw Baiyue was slightly startled after hearing his question, and then he showed an indescribable smile, as if he was recalling some happy memory.
Baiyue: "This will never happen, because you chose to believe me every time."
Rong Le turned her head slightly away from him, not knowing what to say after such a long time.
This is too... too unfair!
He coughed lightly and said, "I agree with your plan, but it's not that I trust you, but I trust my own judgment."
Bai Yue didn't expose his stubbornness, as if he had known this would be the outcome: "Well, see you next time we go back."
He said politely, "I will keep my promise."
Rong Le opened his eyes slightly, recalling the childhood memories that had been buried deep in his memory, the promise that Bai Yue had made to him in that small garden with warm sunshine.
"I promise you, whether it's death or endless time and space, I will always be with you until the moment of the end."
…
The dream became reality.
The scene that appeared countless times in Rong Le's memory fragments was actually unfolding before his eyes.
Rong Le stood on the cliff, looking up at the dark sky. The air was freezing cold, and the strong wind blew his robe, making a rustling sound, as if a storm was about to come.
He lowered his head, and below him were countless colleagues in religious robes, and the elder in the lead, who were angrily scolding him as an ambitious wolf cub.
"The blasphemous act will eventually be observed by the gods, and you will pay the price for your betrayal—"
Rong Le suddenly wanted to laugh.
Like an absurd farce, an invisible giant hand was hovering above these people, making them move along a prescribed trajectory like puppets.
However, this boring and unoriginal play will eventually become boring to the audience after being performed many times.
It's time for a new plot development.
Rong Le turned around and saw Bai Yue standing behind him. That was the most defenseless position, and it would be easy to take his life.
It turned out that from the beginning to the end, he was willing to accept the attack of Baiyue, experience the pain of losing his life, and face his own end.
That is not betrayal, but a solid and reliable sense of security.
Baiyue's hands were very steady, as if they had experienced this thousands of times.
The familiar crimson color gradually spread from his chest. Rong Le smiled with some relief and raised her hand to touch Bai Yue's cheek. His expression did not fluctuate at all under his fine black hair.
Like a ball of ice, as cold and ruthless as a god.
Consciousness gradually faded, and she irresistibly fell into the dark tide. At the last moment, Rong Le whispered softly, "I'm sorry, it must be very sad..."
No matter how calm and skillful Bai Yue appeared, Rong Le could still get a glimpse of that long time from his narration.
Endless waiting and companionship, the fact that the person in front of him was wiped out countless times, what kind of mood did Baiyue have when he fulfilled the promise at that moment?
Starting over again with all the memories in your heart is far more cruel than forgetting everything.
The feeling of loneliness of being forgotten by the world makes it easy to lose one's original direction.
Only Rong Le understands this.
"This time, you won't be left with all the memories."
He will respond to Baiyue's expectations, just as he has done along the way. He will hold the key to open the clock, stand at the time node of destiny, break the shackles, and move towards the future.
【Time Travel】
This skill is the birth of all stories and will also be the end of all stories.
At this moment, the world seemed as clear as a glass cover, and it shattered as the innate skills were activated.
In the distance, a bright light flickered in the endless river of time and space, guiding his way forward like a guiding star. Rong Le stretched out his hand, wanting to touch the unknown destiny.
He stepped through the door again.
**
When the feeling of weightlessness gradually disappeared, Rong Le first felt the solid ground under her feet, and then the breeze blowing across her body.
He landed on an ordinary street, with residents coming and going towards their respective destinations.
The situation in the real world is different from what we imagined. Even after experiencing a disaster, people here still live an ordinary life. The old alleys are still full of fireworks, as if the drastic changes in the world have nothing to do with this place.
"I heard there's a new island on the sea. It seems the module has truly merged with reality..."
"That's right. A school in the neighboring city has been sealed off. I heard it's severely polluted. This will greatly affect the students' studies."
"Alas, it's getting harder and harder to find a job. Some unlucky people even have their company polluted and alienated. Do you think they should quit or not?"
But obviously this is just an appearance.
Rong Le listened to passersby gossiping about current events as she surveyed the surroundings on the street. A TV in a nearby restaurant was broadcasting today's news:
"Special response teams have sealed off the fog boundary. The world is experiencing a new wave of pollution. Please be careful of any areas that conflict with your daily routine. If you encounter any, immediately retreat to a safe area. The public is reminded to exercise caution when traveling. If you encounter any unusual situations, please report them to the responsible person in your neighborhood..."
He was keenly aware that more and more eyes were being directed at him. It seemed as if the residents had just noticed his presence and were watching his every move as if they were observing some rare treasure.
As he walked, the scope of this phenomenon gradually expanded, as if the world had been muted. Everyone was silent, their movements frozen, staring at him as he slowly walked by.
Rong Le naturally noticed something was wrong, raised his eyebrows slightly, stopped and turned his head to look at the girl closest to him.
The teenage girl couldn't hide her inner emotions at all, shock was written all over her face. When she found herself looking into his eyes, her pupils suddenly trembled, her face flushed, and she took a few steps back. She opened her mouth but couldn't say anything.
Help, his skin is so white, and his eyes are so charming. I feel dizzy just by looking at him. He will agree to any request he makes. Is this the charm that exceeds human limits?
Even if you don't look at her face... that's Rong Le! Who could refuse his request?!
She screamed silently in her heart.
Rong Le noticed that everyone's pupils were dilated, as if they knew him. Suspicion filled his heart until he reached a barbecue stall on the street, where the owner tremblingly called out, "Handsome guy, would you like to have some barbecue?"
So strong. Everyone looked at this warrior with admiration.
Rong Le paused for a moment, and was actually called over by the boss. She sat at the stall and was invited to eat barbecue.
The young man, whose temperament is out of tune with his surroundings, seems to have broken through the dimensional wall and come to reality. The picture of him sitting calmly at the barbecue stall is inexplicably inconsistent.
In front of me were the skewers freshly grilled by the boss. The portions were very affordable and the skewers exuded an enticing aroma.
Rong Le started eating silently, waiting for Xu Yuanhe and others to pick him up.
Someone was secretly making a phone call, no one knew who they were contacting, and someone was secretly filming.
But as soon as he looked over, he would be frightened and drop his hand instantly, showing an embarrassed smile and blushing nervously. The generous boss would also hesitate and awkwardly let him eat as much as he wanted without paying.
Rong Le already had a rough guess in her mind, and she only needed to wait for Xu Yuanhe and the head of the organization to arrive to completely resolve her guess.
Therefore, he did not feel cramped at all. His whole temperament stood out from the crowd when he sat at the barbecue stall, and he was so calm as if it was natural.
The special response department quickly received the news and rushed to the area where Rong Le appeared. The convoy completely blocked all surrounding roads.
Lin Qing was wearing a black windbreaker and leather boots for field work. After getting out of the car, he strode towards Rong Le, followed by a dozen elite members of the special response department, looking very imposing.
At this time, the surrounding area had been cleared and there were no residents on the empty streets. Only the barbecue skewers given by the boss still emitted a burnt heat, as if it was the last peace left for Rong Le in this world.
Lin Qing sat down opposite Rong Le and said to him in a gentle tone, "Welcome to the real world."
Rong Le slowly ate the last piece of barbecue on the skewer.
Lin Qing: "I think I should introduce myself. I'm the new director of the Special Response Department, Lin Qing. I'm also Xu Yuanhe's boss and the leader of the Pioneers. We've worked together several times through modules, but this is the first time we've actually met."
His tone was humble, as if without any extra emotional fluctuations, but that was precisely what made it all the more special.
Rong Le: "Do you really welcome me? Minister Linqing, as a collection of troubles, the most dangerous criminals, I am very clear about my proper position. If I were the leader here, my first thought would be to control outsiders and keep them under my nose so that I can feel at ease."
"You and I are obviously the same kind."
Linqing: "Maybe so, but there are exceptions to everything."
He said calmly, "The real world is suffering from the impact of modularization. We expect to see even more tragic casualties than the arrival of the fog soon. Even if there are survivors in the end, this world will be in tatters."
"However, the weak should not be eliminated. Evolution does not have to be a bloody journey."
"Rong Le, you are our hope. From the moment the Savior's live broadcast room appeared, all this was destined."
He looked at Rong Le deeply and said, "You will save our future."
Rong Le snorted with an ambiguous tone, but didn't say anything. Instead, she changed the subject: "Regarding that secret that you couldn't tell me before because of the module rules, can you explain it to me now?"
Lin Qing: "You should have guessed it. The only connection between the real world and the City of Mist is the player, but since you appeared in the module, everything has changed."
He calmly told him about the existence of the live broadcast room and the forum. Everyone witnessed Rong Le's every move with their own eyes, including the time travel. They saw it clearly.
Rong Le's expression suddenly became a little subtle.
Wait, if that's the case, then the modules that have now merged with the real world, and those characters who once had their own entanglements with him, aren't they also...
Lin Qing's tone was tinged with pity: "Yes, I'm afraid they will also learn the truth about time travel and world lines through their own means."
In other words, everything he has done will be known to everyone, and those world lines that were once buried in abandoned corners will also be found by their respective owners through various means.
The frequent time and space retracing will have a certain impact on key characters. When their brains are stimulated by the information in the live broadcast room and their memories are gradually integrated with it, he will also face an unprecedented huge Shura field.
Thinking about the huge number of people he was about to deal with, all the black history that he had to pay back bit by bit, as well as the wonderful chemical reaction that would occur after these people knew of each other's existence.
He already had a premonition of the busy life that was to come.
Rong Le: “…”
Completely numb.
But Lin Qing was right about one thing, he could not escape what he was about to face, and even for Rong Le, this was the last journey.
Through the information brought by Linqing, the whole story was finally pieced together, and the player's source of information and the reactions of the people around him could also be explained clearly.
Now that the fog has been eradicated, Rong Le is the biggest contributor and their hope.
Linqing then showed him the increasingly drastic changes in reality.
A small town resembling Polant appeared in the world and was observed by them through instruments. Through long-term monitoring and numerical comparison, they found that it was gradually merging with the real world.
Since its appearance, the frequency of anomalies in the real world has increased significantly, residents have developed cognitive confusion, and all kinds of strange things have gradually become real through large-scale dissemination and meme pollution.
The Special Affairs Department's Research Division speculates that the reason why Polant's mysterious aggregation effect is so special is because it is the first module to appear in the world and is a bridge connecting the two worlds.
Now they have detected that the town of Portland has been integrated, the module has descended into reality, and the real world has been infected by the white fog and turned into a new module.
Linqing simply gave Rong Le a few examples.
The buildings have undergone different degrees of abnormalities. The fusion of the original buildings and modules has swallowed up some buildings and even produced drastic changes. The urban structure has also been changed, and the lives of residents have been affected to varying degrees and their lives have been endangered.
Several dangerous buildings that appeared out of nowhere were also observed and classified as dangerous areas.
A mental hospital appeared in the deserted suburbs, filled with laughing nurses and irrational patients. They thought normal people were patients/their kind and wanted to lock them up in the mental hospital.
After assimilating humans, the hospital's power and area will also increase.
This strange building that can continuously grow in strength is like a living thing in their eyes. Because it is very close to the city, the Special Responsibilities Department is on high alert for fear of any unpredictable changes.
A school in the city, which was originally at low risk, has also been plagued by ghost rumors. As a result, all the teachers and students have moved to a new campus. The Special Affairs Department has discovered through investigation that every mirror on the campus can lead to the new school.
Students' testimonies also said that another "me" in the world is in the mirror.
If these situations are still controllable, the changes are far more than that.
An illusory white giant appeared in the city where they lived, as if things from different dimensions were forcibly merged to form the absurd appearance of today. The overlap of modules caused monsters to begin wandering in the real city.
Some residents began to develop high fever, while others also felt dizzy, unwell, nauseous and wanted to vomit. These negative symptoms were obviously caused by the white giant.
After the arrival of this mysterious creature, the pollution level in the originally low-risk habitable city skyrocketed. Long-term residence will be polluted and turned into monsters. Ordinary people without antibodies can only stay away, and only players with special abilities can move freely.
The research department speculates that their ability may be a plague virus. The streets have been blocked and they have not yet confronted the white giant head-on.
At the same time, the player community is further strengthened because special evolution paths have been found, and the number of people with talented skills is also increasing.
This may also be related to module fusion.
Not only them, but all cities in the world where humans still exist have suffered varying degrees of harm. The crisis brought about by the module fusion is as dangerous and tragic as the initial arrival of the fog.
If they could still retain some of their fire at that time, constantly try to expand the boundaries of survival, conquer lost territories, and survive with difficulty, they now have nothing extra to lose.
They are unable to cope with the impact brought by the Fog City. In order to minimize casualties, the Special Response Department needs a series of preparations and also needs Rong Le's help.
Rong Le didn't expect the current situation to be so serious.
The worldly affairs that I had felt before seemed so far away, and the truth of reality was so cruel that it easily shattered all beautiful fantasies.
This is the final journey he has to face.
He meets his former anchors again, they are enemies and fight side by side. These people represent his past and will accompany him into a new future.
So in the meantime, just enjoy the final stage.
Rong Le: "I understand. I'll go back to the Special Response Department with you."
Lin Qing couldn't help but smile slightly: "It seems that this time, we can truly participate in each other's world. Welcome to join, Rong Le."
Rong Le stood up and looked at the armed troops and the surrounding convoy that were ready for battle not far away on the street. They were the lineup to welcome him.
Before leaving, he suddenly stopped.
"That's right."
Rong Le's eyes slid across the uneaten barbecue on the table. While they were talking, the skewers on the plate had gradually lost temperature over time, and the fat had gradually solidified. This delicacy no longer had the aroma it had an hour ago, but it still had a unique flavor.
"Remember, don't forget to pay for the boss's barbecue."
