Not long after Bai Liu turned into a portrait, Yuan Guang coughed twice and woke up in a daze. He leaned on the chair and tried to stand up, but failed after two attempts.

Bai Liu walked up to Yuan Guang and extended his hand to him.

Yuan Guang then realized that there was another person in the house. He asked in surprise, "Bai Liu, why are you here?"

"Don't worry about this for now." Bai Liu said calmly, "What did you dream about last night?"

Yuan Guang felt a splitting headache after being reminded by Bai Liu. He supported his forehead and almost fell back to the ground. He narrowly grabbed Bai Liu's hand and was gently helped to stand up by Bai Liu before he could steady himself.

"Thank you." Yuan Guang held onto the chair, shook his head, frowned, and began to recall, "Dream? Last night, I saw you go back home, and it seemed like you had a dream."

Bai Liu asked: "What did you dream about?"

"I dreamed..." Yuan Guang shook his head hesitantly, "I dreamed that you woke up and came to play games with me, and then I lost. I was controlled by you, my mental value dropped to 0, and I turned into a monster. I couldn't control myself and started to use skills on you..."

“I don’t remember what happened next.”

Yuan Guang paused for a moment, then opened his mouth and asked, "Am I really... being controlled again and summoning Bai Liu?"

"Yeah." Bai Liu replied calmly, "I just met him."

Yuan Guang was silent for a long time this time. He stood beside Bai Liu, holding the back of the chair with his hands clenched until his knuckles turned white. He slowly lowered his head and said, "...I believe you can lead Russell Cemetery to victory."

"If Bai Liu uses me to log into reality to find you again next time, you will just... kill me."

Before he finished speaking, Bai Liu's phone suddenly rang, and Tang Erda's slightly anxious voice came from the phone: "Bai Liu, it's going to explode, you guys come down quickly."

"I'll take Yuan Guang straight into the game, you guys go have fun." Bai Liu said calmly.

Tang Er paused and said, "Okay, be careful."

Before Tang Er hung up the phone, Bai Liu heard Su Yang's angry roar: "The people haven't come down yet, we can't just explode!"

"Leave it to Bai Liu, he'll be fine." Tang Erda said quickly, and it was obvious that he wanted to brush the matter off. "He can handle it."

Su Yang's voice was extremely helpless: "You are letting him mess around too much! This is a matter of life and death! No, give me the phone number, let me talk to Bai Liu..."

"Tang Erda!!"

Tang Er hung up the phone.

Bai Liu put down his phone and turned his head to look at Yuan Guang who was standing next to him: "You also heard that this building is going to explode. Are you going down?"

"I won't go down." Yuan Guang said, "I will go directly into the game later. President Bai, you go down first."

Bai Liu did not move. He stood at the edge of the opening in the last building that had not yet been sealed with a wall. From here, he could glimpse a corner of this prosperous and bustling city.

"President Bai, how did you guess that Bai Liu would look for you here?" Yuan Guang suddenly asked in a low voice.

Bai Liu lowered his eyes and said in a steady voice, "I guessed that Bai Liu would look for me here."

"I just guessed where you committed suicide."

Yuan Guang's pupils shrank and his whole body froze.

Bai Liu continued calmly, "Bai Liu can only manipulate people's dreams, but the person who climbed up this building alone and woke up before the explosion and then fell asleep on the ground was you, right?"

"I can't think of any other explanation for this behavior except suicide."

Yuan Guang stood silently behind Bai Liu, motionless.

"You only took 20% of the points I gave you. I heard you gave them all away, leaving none for yourself." Bai Liu said calmly, "When Mu Ke came to you to take over, you also refused his help and transferred all the compensation for your house to your mother."

"I have arranged all my affairs, and I am going to die here where it all began."

Bai Liu turned around and looked at Yuan Guang: "Everything is getting better, why do you choose to die now?"

Yuan Guang slowly raised his head, his eyes were so red that he looked like he would burst into tears in the blink of an eye: "These improvements were achieved at the cost of so many people's sacrifices..."

“Why am I the one enjoying this?”

On the table behind him, Uncle Wang in the black and white photo was smiling brightly. In the incense burner in front of him, four incense sticks were lit that had just been extinguished. Yuan Guang's tears finally fell. He choked and clenched his fists: "I'm just a piece of shit who has given nothing!"

"They risked their lives to get these things! Why should I get them?"

"I can't do anything. I killed all my teammates because of my skills in my first league match. Even you who helped me solve the problem in the end almost died in my hands!"

"I work so hard but still live such a miserable life. I can't make any money, and no one can help me. In my mother's last game, I had to get a kill from my opponent in order to win. I've been hurting others my whole life. What's the point of living?"

Yuan Guang stood straight, but he was crying loudly: "Why am I the only one alive today?"

"If we judge by worldly values," Bai Liu looked at the crying Yuan Guang, "your life is indeed meaningless."

Yuan Guang cried even harder.

Bai Liu suddenly smiled softly: "But the person who chose to let you live was not you."

"It was those who chose you as the president, those who you thought should enjoy all this and were willing to die for it. You took on their desire to live and never escaped, so you survived."

"You are alive to get all this, which is exactly what those who died wanted."

Bai Liu smiled and said, "You are a very valuable person to me, as you can be a container of so many desires without breaking down."

Yuan Guang looked at Bai Liu with tears in his eyes: "I really want to... sell my soul to you."

"But it shouldn't work." Yuan Guang burst into tears. He raised his arm and wiped his face. "I tried many times before, but the shit system said I had sold my soul."

Bai Liu looked at the altar behind Yuan Guang and asked, "Have you moved all the urns out?"

"Yes." Yuan Guang sobbed, "but the altar and the portrait were left behind."

Bai Liu asked: "Why?"

Yuan Guang was silent for a few seconds, then said hoarsely, "Because everyone hopes that these dead people can see the scene of the unfinished building being blown up."

"They have been waiting for this day for a very, very long time."

Bai Liu raised his eyebrows and looked calmly at the ruined building outside which was shaking due to the explosion: "Then let them have a look."

The unfinished buildings swayed and fell in the huge explosion. A huge cloud of dust rose into the air in the shape of a mushroom, but strangely it was confined to a certain area and did not spread out. The debris did not fly around, but flew to a certain point, as if it hit an invisible wall and bounced back.

This should be a heresy brought by the Bureau of Heresy to control the hazards of explosions.

The only thing coming out of the explosion area was the wind.

A huge wind carrying the smell of gunpowder blew strongly in their faces, completely blowing away the hair on Bai Liu and Yuan Guang's foreheads, and also blowing away the huge cloud of dust that enveloped the ground.

The tall building that blocked the direct sunlight collapsed with a bang, and the bright sunlight penetrated the huge dust cloud of the explosion, connecting into a piece, and illuminating the dilapidated unfinished building in the corner of this sunny building that had never seen the light of day for many years.

The sunlight shines into every room in the unfinished building that has not been sealed, on the black and white photos on every altar, and on the incense burners that have just been extinguished. It seems that the people in these cold rooms are beginning to warm up and smile under the sunlight.

Yuan Guang squinted his eyes because of the dazzling light. He looked at Bai Liu's back standing at the edge, which was blown by the wind as if it would fall down in the next second, and tears fell unconsciously.

Sunlight, is it such a bright thing?

Finally, the explosion reached the dilapidated back building where they were.

There was a loud bang at the bottom of the rotten-tail building, and it began to fall down with a rumbling sound.

Yuan Guang walked to Bai Liu's side. He looked up at the sunlight shining in, took a deep breath, and asked softly, "President Bai..."

"Yeah." Bai Liutou responded without replying, "What's the matter?"

Yuan Guang paused and asked: "In our union, is the working mechanism 996?"

Bai Liu suddenly chuckled, then turned around and looked at him: "No, our guild does not use the 996 system."

Just as Yuan Guang was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he heard Bai Liu speak slowly:

"Our guild is 007."

Yuan Guang: “…”

I shed a tear.
