Now that the source of the problem is clear, there is no need to create additional side quests.
Generally speaking, the ending of a story serves the process.
However, if the ending is already set, then how to achieve that ending becomes the biggest problem.
Yin Zhu is the typical "take it one step at a time" type. Plus, being a newbie, she was fearless when she first entered the dungeon. Back then, she really dared to do whatever she thought of.
However, now that she has more experience, Yin Zhu has become a bit hesitant, especially when encountering similar rules. She will subconsciously compare the differences between the two instead of focusing on passing the level immediately, and her actions tend to be conservative.
It's a good thing in some ways, and a bad thing in others.
Without a think tank, one might be somewhat reckless and do-or-die, but with a think tank to offer guidance, the chosen one will start to rely on the think tank to eliminate incorrect options.
The three chosen ones in the inner city found a secluded spot and once again requested a hint from the think tank.
This time, the one receiving the information was naturally Jennifer from Lavender Country. She stared blankly at the air for a while before telling Yin Zhu with a subtle expression, "They gave three plans. The first is to start with the lower-level citizens, shatter the myths in the inner city, and cause this group of people to lose faith in the gods."
"Impossible. They control the propaganda apparatus. If it were possible, the resistance would have done it long ago."
Yin Zhufei quickly rejected this point.
This reaction was expected by Jennifer, so she came up with a second method: "From the perspective of other Chosen Ones, the purpose of the resistance is to take their place and become the new gods, which can also suppress Cyber Disease."
Yin Zhu glanced at the door, offering no explicit objection, but simply asked, "So what about the third option?"
"Kill all the gods, physically kill them."
Jennifer was also shocked when she first heard it, never expecting that there was such a radical country on Earth.
That's god-slaying!
This is essentially the same as the first suggestion: if it were so easy, the One Star's resistance would have already unified Vina City, leaving nothing for these chosen ones.
It seems that only the second option is more reliable.
"It'll be time soon. Let's contact the other survivors first, and then we can have a more detailed discussion," Hirano San did not make a choice, but simply offered a suggestion.
This time it was Yin Zhu's turn to stare at Hirano Shan.
"Speaking of which, thank you for your scream back then, which created a suitable environment for Yin Zhu and me to escape." Hirano San smiled and bowed slightly to Jennifer, but Jennifer looked at her with some doubt: "I didn't scream."
"no?"
Hirano San knew the perfect walkthrough for this world in advance through unspeakable means, but never paid attention to those random passersby.
Therefore, Hirano San had no idea about the specific details, such as "who called it".
Was it a coincidence by an indigenous person?
Yin Zhu didn't believe it.
Not only did Yin Zhu not believe it, but neither did the panda.
During the afternoon communication, Yin Zhu inquired about the number of members in the [Survivor Discussion Group] and learned that a user with a lotus flower avatar had not logged in on time today. The name was somewhat familiar to Yin Zhu: "Treading the Waves Without Picking Flowers".
And coincidentally, someone in the group recognized that Ta Lang Bu Zhai Hua also lived in the Junior Citizen Service Center.
Isn't that a coincidence?
Yin Zhu shared what happened at the service center today in the group chat, of course, she blurred out anything related to herself.
And so it became...
Descendant of the Dragon: "My friend was also in the service area today when he encountered a god choosing a divine servant. The chosen person refused to submit even at the cost of death, so the two sides got into a lot of trouble."
My dad is the warden: "This friend you're talking about...you're not yourself, are you?"
Descendant of the Dragon: "No, I'm no longer in the service area."
Descendant of the Dragon: "That's not the point. The point is that someone shouted something that caused chaos in the crowd. I suspect that person might have been the one who didn't pick flowers while riding the waves. Because she helped someone, she was targeted by the gods."
Panda: "Then she's doomed. Let's offer incense."
The world's greatest magician: "Are you all just going to hide like this? She's beyond saving today, but how do you know if you're beyond saving tomorrow?"
Panda: "The group already said not to stand out. Just follow the group and pretend to be an honest infected person to survive. She violated the rules, and now she has to pay the price. What does this have to do with us?"
My dad is the warden: "Isn't it a bit too ruthless?"
Panda: "According to my investigation, a similar large-scale cyber disease outbreak occurred in the inner city more than ten years ago, so we just need to hold on until it ends."
...Yeah, right.
Looking at the panda's reaction, Yin Zhu almost suspected that he had been infected.
Although Yin Zhu didn't know exactly how the inner city had dealt with the Cyber Disease outbreak more than a decade ago, he was very clear that this Cyber Disease outbreak was likely the direct cause of the destruction of the unique planet, taking the entire world with it.
"Flying Fish, do you remember when your cybernetics outbreak started when you were a child?"
Yin Zhu wanted to confirm.
Feiyu had seen the message in the group and understood what Yin Zhu meant. He frowned and replied, "At that time, I was still very young, but I remember that the Cyber disease started from the bottom level. Not many gods were infected, so the infected were later eliminated."
In other words, the infection started from the upper echelons; the gods have directly betrayed us, and the city of Vina is doomed.
Jennifer, who was munching on bread, suddenly turned her head to the side and held up her benevolent spirit to show everyone: "Worm, bamboo, someone contacted me privately."
It's that guy who said, "My dad is the warden."
The worm quickly established a hidden chat platform similar to a survivor discussion group to prevent messages from being leaked. Others gathered around the worm to watch him communicate with the other side: "Hello?"
My dad is the warden: "Hello, I'm a Class A citizen, you can just call me Prince."
The group of people looked at each other in bewilderment.
I can't understand why an arrogant senior citizen would want to add them at this time.
However, this self-proclaimed prince was clearly used to taking the initiative, and soon spilled out a lot of information like beans pouring from a bamboo tube: "It's like this, that 'Wave-Treading-Without-Picking-Flowers' in the group is a low-level citizen who knows martial arts performances, and he performed for me before."
“There’s something wrong with Panda, but Treading Waves Without Picking Flowers has indeed disappeared. I’m always the one who pulls her into the discussion group, but this time she’s not online, and she doesn’t answer any of my attempts to contact her. I suspect she’ll be taken away as a sacrifice. I just received news that this year’s festival has been moved up, so she shouldn’t die before then.”
“I see you have a strong sense of justice in the group, and I believe you’re not a cold-blooded person like Panda. Are you interested in coming to the central area and helping me save her? Don’t worry, you don’t need to worry about your identity, food, clothing, or accommodation. Our Class A citizens learn from childhood how to avoid the AI Eve to achieve our goals.”
This guy was so anxious that he sent three long paragraphs.
