The boat stopped. Yu Xunge stopped his chaotic thoughts, walked out of the cabin, and skillfully picked a golden apple.
She lay on the bed in the captain's cabin, the lantern floating overhead.
Thinking of the Dawn Cicada, Yu Xunge reached out and poked [Angry Moon], asking a question she was very curious about: "Is the Dawn Cicada not suitable for you?"
The lantern shook: Not at all. After the "lighthouse" was broken, she thought that everything around her was her responsibility, including the suffering of the drunkards and smokers.
Yu Xunge frowned. She had been doing this action too often recently. She pressed her brow and asked, "What about me? I already consider 'carrying wine' my responsibility. Am I still compatible with you?"
The light in the lantern softened, it lowered slightly and fell on Zaijiu Xunge's pillow: I am witnessing the birth of another violent moon. The process of you writing world civilization, the process of you learning true responsibility and finding a way out for Zaijiu, is the process of weaving a cage.
The most essential difference between "Carrying Wine to Find Song" and "Carrying Cicada at Dawn" is that "Carrying Cicada at Dawn" can never let go of Fuzhi and everyone around her. She belongs to Fuzhi, her family, the memories that trap her, and even to Qi Qi who has been cultivating and looking up to her.
But Zaijiu Xunge is different. If one day "Zaijiu" is completely stable and no longer needs her, she will pursue the life she wants without hesitation. When the cage disappears, she will still belong to herself.
The lantern was about to start working, but Yu Xunge still had a question to ask: "B80 said you were lost for a thousand years. When did the Dawn Cicada get you? 300 years ago?"
[Angry Moon] swung the handle of his lantern back and forth: Almost.
She looked at B80, who was standing by the bed, trying to cover her with a thin blanket. "Are you talking about thousands of years based on Zaijiu's timeline? Is the difference in time flow between Dawn and Zaijiu so great? How often do Dawn players participate in the God Games?"
B80 lifted the quilt and covered her again, and then got busy.
[Angry Moon] seemed to want her to stop talking, and hurriedly began to help her transform the world with a sigh.
She finally quieted down for a while.
Before his consciousness was about to completely sink into the world's sigh, Yu Xunge, who had his eyes tightly closed, suddenly reached out and grabbed B80's little hand and asked, "Look, I've recorded so many world sighs. Do you still want to ignite the fire of your soul and become a living being with emotions?"
In a daze, she only heard half of the sentence "Yes, because..."
Because why?
Amidst the golden rain, Zhajiu Xunge slept quietly. B80 reached out a small finger to smooth over her furrowed brow, and softly said the second half of the sentence: "I long for the scene of you being lost and tormented by right and wrong, and regret, and struggling between ideals and reality."
…
Bitter Cup sighed, "I miss it so much. The last time I saw [Quiet Dusk] was at Zelan Fengtang's place. It's not a bad choice to pick this one when she's looking for a song. It can help her solve her current predicament."
Drummer: "She wouldn't choose that skill at all."
Bitter Cup: "I'm increasingly curious about what she'll ultimately achieve. I've never seen a player trigger this before. Not only are there two stages of war skills and world skills, but there's also a third path."
Drummer: "If Zelan Fengtang had successfully acquired that skill, he could have defended Senhai. Unfortunately..."
In the past, the captain might have remained silent, as he had done countless times before, without making any excuses. However, perhaps it was because he was drinking and singing while listening to the sigh of the "tide", which prevented him from recovering as quickly as before.
For the first time, the captain spoke up in his defense, "I never understand why you keep saying Zelan Maple Sugar almost managed to hold onto the Forest Sea. Even if she had chosen that reward, it would have only allowed her to use [Tranquil Dusk] once.
"If it was the complete version of [Tranquil Dusk], I wouldn't interfere. At least it could be used ten times. But the [Tranquil Dusk] that Zelan Fengtang encountered at that time could only be used once, and the price was the permanent loss of the divine talent. Is it worth it?
"Even if she had successfully severed the invasive connection between Zelan and Senhai, there would still be other worlds without Zelan. But she had already lost everything, and she would regret it for the rest of her life."
