While saying she would see him, Riki Tsunomiya only actually met with Su Deng. She stood there quietly watching Su Deng through the gaps in the stair steps for about ten minutes, without saying a word, but her gaze was somewhat complicated.
Then he left.
Su Deng: "..."
Qiao Zhi: "..."
Neuropathy.
Su Deng came out from the bottom of the stairs.
Qiao Zhi didn't ask anything more, and told Su Deng about the recent situation in the game world, "Ever since you were taken away by the God after making your wish last time, there has been a rumor circulating in the game world that the game world is about to collapse..."
It is said that a player in the Eight Gods Palace divined Su Deng's fate, saying that Su Deng was the reincarnation of a demon, a cursed star, and that everyone around her, whether friends or family, would die except for her.
She made a wish to the god, and the god was not targeting her, but rather eliminating her to protect everyone in the game world.
This rumor was already pretty absurd, but it's even more absurd if someone believes it.
Unfortunately, after Su Deng was chosen by the God to save the players' real world, he failed in every instance, causing the deaths of countless people and the real world.
She could have saved him, but she didn't. She treated every instance like a game, indifferent to failure, and even deliberately failed.
For other players watching the live stream, this is tantamount to her indirectly killing and harming people.
"Nobody cares whether you were forced into this or whether you actually had the ability. If you succeed, that's what you were chosen to do. If you fail, you're the one to blame," Qiao Zhi said with a cold laugh.
In this game world, everyone's greed and ambition are amplified, and there is never much humanity left.
Just like before, when the gods said that Su Deng's wins and losses in the game represented the survival of the real world, they placed all their hopes on Su Deng and prayed to please her.
No one considered whether Su Deng was willing or not, or whether she was forced into it.
They only care about themselves and whether others can make them feel fulfilled.
Therefore, they did not comply with their wishes, and no one was saved.
In the eyes of the game's players, she is now a demon.
Su Deng was quite interested in her nickname.
But she didn't care.
Her current plan is—
1. Advance to a B-rank otherworld, then enter an A-rank otherworld.
2. Find the evil god, find out everything, and then deal with her.
3. Figure out who you are and your past with Yan Sizhan.
What else is it to her?
Su Deng glanced at Qiao Zhi and said, "Don't follow me."
He left after saying that.
Watching her retreating figure, Qiao Zhi opened her mouth, but couldn't utter a word.
She knew that Su Deng seemed indifferent on the surface, but deep down she couldn't get over Qin Xian's death and felt that she was the one who caused Qin Xian's death, so she continued to keep her distance from everyone.
Qiao Zhi sighed, didn't chase after them, and went to find material points.
The name above your head can't be covered, you can't hide it by changing clothes, and there are no tasks that can hide your anonymous name; you can only hide.
Su Deng circled around those people, casually chatting with NPCs along the roadside.
In games where players are searching for items, NPCs aren't created for nothing.
"Is a cold wave coming?"
"There are still two hours, no rush, let's buy some things first."
Su Deng didn't feel the cold here, and leaned closer to a man and a woman next to her: "What is a cold wave?"
The man glanced at her. "Han Chao doesn't even know you're new here, does he?"
Su Deng: "...Yeah, the new guy."
The woman smiled and said, "The seasons here change every week, and today is the seventh day..."
Su Deng asked a few questions casually and discovered a strange phenomenon here.
In this strange place, the four seasons alternate on a weekly basis, meaning you experience all four seasons within seven days, similar to a normal year.
At 2 PM on Sunday afternoon, an extremely cold wave will arrive, bringing heavy snow and freezing temperatures to the entire world, which will continue until Monday afternoon when the snow and cold wave melt.
Tuesday marked the arrival of spring, with flowers blooming all in a single day.
Thursday marks the start of summer.
Autumn arrives on Saturday morning and winter arrives at 2 PM on Sunday.
Like a propulsion system, the seasons change extremely quickly, alternating between spring, summer, autumn, and winter.
When a cold wave comes, people basically stay indoors.
Su Deng walked up to the next passerby and asked them where they came from.
The passerby said, "I've been here since I was born."
"..." Su Deng went to find someone older.
The old woman said, "The original inhabitants here were all sinners. The gods were kind and could not bear to kill those sinners, so they created this place for us to live in."
The seven-day cycle of spring, summer, autumn, and winter, the semi-ruined environment, and the arduous days are their punishment.
But for these people, it was already an immense blessing.
Gods, again gods.
The game instances in this game world can be summarized into two types.
One is immortality, the other is divinity.
The gods are the divine court.
That immortality...
It should be the new god that the Divine Court wants to create.
After piecing together all the clues and information gathered since entering this game world, it's quite clear that the Divine Court serves as fertilizer for nurturing the new gods within this game world.
I'm not sure about the other details.
For them, it's a game instance world; for the local NPCs in this game world, it's their home.
As some people have said online before, if the world were a game world, and everyone were just a string of data controlled by a higher dimension outside the world, they would call those people gods.
The NPCs here are the same; they have no idea that they are a string of data or a game NPC. What they perceive as gods are merely technological manipulators.
