Chapter 117 Winning Condition: Find a Way to Keep the World Alive
The consciousness floats and sinks in the deep sea, and then rushes to the shallows with the sudden waves.
"Jingyuan" opened his eyes and saw a group of flying birds across the blue sky, and then gradually flew away and turned into a black dot that was out of sight.
Is this true or false?
He tried to stand up, but it felt like he was holding down some soft and slippery algae, which made him shake his hand subconsciously.
However, the strange silver-white algae filaments were entangled in the fingers and moved slowly - it was not known whether it was pushed by the remaining sea water or whether it was actually a living creature.
Thinking of this, Jing Yuan couldn't help but throw it out with force.
"Just treat it as a game, and the condition for winning is to find a way to keep this world alive." His voice seemed to come from all directions, with a giggling sound effect.
After a pause, He added considerately, "It must be a reasonable and effective method."
Reasonable and effective survival method? But... whether it is from the ecology on the beach or the environment on the shore, the world does not seem to be on the verge of destruction.
Thinking of this, Jing Yuan looked towards the area across the coast, and saw a familiar city with tall buildings and busy traffic.
An inexplicable attraction led him to ignore his wet clothes and walk quickly.
The background behind him faded away quickly, and in just a few steps he arrived at the city that seemed so far away just now.
——It’s like jumping from one map to another.
This feeling chilled Jing Yuan's heart a little. When he saw the familiar Chinese characters on the store, he became indifferent. "Why did you bring me to a place like this?"
"Eh?" As if because Jing Yuan's reaction was not what He expected, He hesitated for a moment, and soon became interested again, "Of course it's because you wanted to come here!"
He cannot see where exactly I am. Jing Yuan made a conclusion based on His reaction.
Familiar roads, familiar streets, Jing Yuan even thought in a trance that everything that had happened before was just a dream.
However, he soon saw the ruined city.
No, not just cities. All the buildings, all the life, seemed to have transcended time in that instant and turned into a handful of loose sand.
The strong wind blew the fine sand, which was not sure whether it could be considered as remains, towards our faces, bringing an extremely strong feeling of suffocation.
"Jingyuan" quickly raised his arms to cover his breath, but the turbulent airflow under the strong wind made it difficult to catch much air.
We need to find a shelter that is adequately protected from the wind and sand as soon as possible. "Jing Yuan" made such a judgment, and at the same time, he groped forward as soon as possible.
But after the whole city was dispersed, where could there be a safe place?
His consciousness gradually became blurred until something was pressed hard on his face. "Wake up, we'll take you to the hospital now!"
Hospital...it's been a long time since I last heard of this name. "Jingyuan" clenched his knuckles tightly, but he wished he could bite them directly to stay awake.
But the breathing mask buckled on the face prevents such behavior from being possible.
A long time passed with the sound of the engine. This sound seemed to have turned into some kind of lullaby, making people let down their guard unconsciously.
So, Jingyuan opened his eyes again and saw the familiar pure white ceiling. There was no need to ask; the smell of disinfectant revealed where one was.
The white spot on the back of his right hand indicated that he had just had an IV drip.
The room was empty and silent, but outside the corridor there was a constant noise of people coming and going.
It can't be a good thing for the hospital to be so busy. He got up from the bed, and after glancing at the disposable slippers on the floor, he looked at the hospital gown on himself.
......Although these changes are normal, where did my previous clothes go?
The question flashed through my mind. When Jing Yuan just walked to the door, he saw a man walking in and blocking the door firmly, "You still need to cultivate yourself more now."
"Yanqing?" "Jingyuan" looked at the other person calmly.
Could it be that Yan Qing had fallen into a coma before and was sent into this game first?
However, Yan Qing just asked in surprise, "Do you know me?"
After hearing the second sentence, "Jingyuan" realized that Yanqing had been using this honorific title. So he instantly suppressed his previous laxity and said hesitantly, "I don't know, I...maybe I know you?"
The hesitant tone made Yan Qing understand, but there was a hint of disappointment in his tone, "Have you lost your memory?"
Although Jing Yuan really wanted to guide him in this direction, Yan Qing brought it up too quickly, so quickly that Jing Yuan didn't know whether he should continue to inquire about the news with this reason.
Perhaps this short pause made Yan Qing realize something. He took out his ID and comforted her, "Don't worry, I'm from Luofu Disaster Management Bureau."
What? "Jing Yuan"'s eyes fell on the document that looked like a police officer's ID, and he actually saw the five words "Luofu Disaster Relief Bureau" stamped on it.
Just when Jing Yuan was about to pay more attention to the content, Yan Qing had already collected the certificate and reminded him again, "After all, you have traveled through the dead zone, so it is better to recuperate for a few more days."
Dead zone? Is this the dead zone I was thinking of? "Jingyuan" looked into Yanqing's eyes and thought silently.
——This world is like a fusion of reality and fantasy.
"What is the dead zone?" Jing Yuan, who had experienced amnesia before, asked politely.
"It's the scene you just saw. That desertified area is called the dead zone." Yan Qing explained the science very seriously.
Then, a voice continued, "If it is a folk version, they prefer to call it the ghost realm."
A shorter pink-haired woman walked in and looked Jing Yuan up and down as soon as she entered the room. "Are you the savior predicted by the Qiongguan Formation?"
"This name is still too heavy." "Jing Yuan" evaded the question, and then asked curiously, "What is the Qiongguan Formation?"
Could it be that the Qiongguan Formation, which incorporates modern elements, is still some kind of formation?
Speaking of this, the seriousness on Fu Xuan's face faded a little, "That is a photonic quantum computer that can predict the future."
…Okay, that’s scientific. Jing Yuan thought silently, and finally asked, "In that case, is there anything I can do?"
Fu Xuan and Yan Qing looked at each other, their eyes revealing an expression of "I knew it would be like this."
At this moment, Jing Yuan was even prepared to face another Jing Yuan, but Fu Xuan extended his hand and invited him, "I am Fu Xuan, the director of Luofu Disaster Prevention Bureau. I am glad that you have joined us."
To the director of the Disaster Bureau...if this world is indeed shaped according to one's own cognition, then the position of director will definitely be Jing Yuan.
After a few seconds of silence, Jing Yuan asked a very bold question, "What about him?"
The sudden silence made Jing Yuan realize that both Fu Xuan and Yan Qing knew who he was asking about.
In other words, Jingyuan does exist in this game world.
But the next second, Fu Xuan responded casually, "He is dead."
...a not-so-surprising answer.
For a moment, the three of them suddenly had a strange tacit understanding and just silently felt the atmosphere at the moment, as if this was enough to understand the situation.
In the end, Fu Xuan interrupted the situation with red eyes, "Come to me when you have thought it through, whether you decide to stay and help or leave this world."
At the moment when Fu Xuan was about to leave the ward, Jing Yuan said, "I have made up my mind. I want to stay."
Fu Xuan, who had his back to Jing Yuan, did not turn around, but responded in a steady voice, "This sounds more like an impulsive act."
"But you know, it just sounds good."
Although everyone said that Jing Yuan was good at planning and advancing step by step, Fu Xuan, as the successor being trained, always knew that this person was better at weighing the pros and cons and achieving a surprise victory.
But most of the time, the left end of the scale is Luofu, and the right end is also Luofu, so it appears to be extra cautious.
But one day, when he was the only one standing on the side destined to lose, it was time for him to achieve victory by surprise, which he was extremely good at.
In this way, he can get the optimal solution at the lowest cost.
But no matter which one it is, it is undeniable that Jingyuan is right. Those words often just sound like impulsive actions, but all the possible consequences have actually been weighed over and over in his mind a hundred times.
——Just like when Fu Xuan first heard Jing Yuan say "I am about to leave Luofu".
At that time, Fu Xuan thought that he was going to attend a seminar at Yaoqing or Zhuming next door or somewhere else, so he nodded smoothly and asked casually, "When will you be back?"
At that time, Jing Yuan shook his head and responded in the same tone as before every business trip, "I won't be back."
Fu Xuan couldn't even react for a moment, "Why don't you come back?"
After asking, she was suddenly stunned, "Are you going to fulfill the prophecy of the Qiongguan Array?"
No, it's not going to happen. Fu Xuan quickly sorted everything out. Since Jingyuan has said goodbye, it means that all other preparations have been completed.
It was obvious that this person had already started making preparations after seeing the future!
"That is just the future demonstrated by the Qiongguan Formation." Fu Xuan reminded with emphasis, "It is an existence you will never rely on."
For Jing Yuan, he believes that everything depends on human effort, and even if he studies the formation carefully, he cannot calculate all the variables in the world.
But this time, he was even willing to risk his life to bet on a bright future he saw in the Qiongguan Formation.
——Even, the people from other worlds that they saw from the Qiongguan Formation were completely covered by white light, with only their general outlines and not even their faces could be seen.
So Fu Xuan asked him, "Do you really believe that the so-called savior from another world will lead us to victory? Maybe he is not willing to stay for us at all."
"No." Jing Yuan responded with a firm tone at the time, "I believe in him, he can do it."
At that time, Fu Xuan had no idea where Jing Yuan's confidence came from, but he was destined to be unable to stop Jing Yuan's determination.
And now, Fu Xuan understood.
If what I sacrificed is still "me", then what I can do, he can do as well.
At the same time, according to the deduction of the Qiongguan Formation, what I cannot do, he may also be able to do.
This way, it becomes clear what to choose.
But, another you cannot replace you. Fu Xuan thought so.
"Okay, I will transfer his authority to you." Fu Xuan said finally.
