Chapter 401 May You Live for Yourself】
A few years ago...
Ye Qingyue's heart moved, and she seemed to realize something.
The system probably noticed the change in Ye Qingyue's expression, and it said honestly: "Yes, in the year when the host was reborn, the race that created my life realized a problem."
Ye Qingyue said: "Do you think it's not safe to put eggs in one basket for me to support your entire race with my own strength?"
She died at the beginning by relying on the life in another dimension, gathering the strength of the whole race and contributing merit points in exchange for her rebirth.
Therefore, the remaining merit points in that dimension are only enough to survive for one year.
If it weren't for her fighting hard and earning merit points later, those lives would have to wait for death.
If it were Ye Qingyue, she would also feel that it was too unsafe to rely on her alone.
Could it be that the system wants to recruit more people to join?
While Ye Qingyue was thinking about it,
"They realized that you, the host, seem to have lived for them for the rest of your life."
The system's voice rang in her ear.
Ye Qingyue was slightly startled: "What?"
The system said: "The host was alone in her previous life. Because of the death of her relatives, she was too sad and depressed many times. Every time, she relied on psychological counseling and the new drugs we produced to forcibly cure the body hormones and nerve problems caused by depression."
In her previous life, Ye Qingyue did not accept that she was a surgical machine at the beginning.
She was a person with rich emotions, and the death of her relatives was a great blow to her.
How can mental problems and illnesses be easily cured?
Ye Qingyue struggled to climb out of the quagmire.
The system and the lives in another dimension saw it all.
But Ye Qingyue never complained, she just did her work silently.
Later, perhaps because time passed, the sadness was buried deep in her heart, and Ye Qingyue slowly began to smile.
No matter who saw it, they all thought she had gotten over it.
Until Ye Qingyue died, and then her soul was collected by the system and time was reversed to be reborn.
Seeing Ye Qingyue's appearance after rebirth, the lives in another dimension understood that this was what she should look like.
In her previous life, Ye Qingyue lived alone and did so many things. It was not the life she wanted, but the life she had to live -
for the sake of those kind lives in another dimension, so that they would not die.
Ye Qingyue chose to be a surgical machine to earn merit points for them and to support their entire clan to survive.
"This is not a bad thing, but it is not a good thing either."
The system said: "After realizing this problem, the tribe decided to find a new way to survive."
At the beginning, they also considered whether to find a few more people like Ye Qingyue.
But if they did so, they would just drag a few more people like Ye Qingyue to live with a burden on their backs.
This went against their original intention.
So, they left their hometown and wandered around in that dimension, looking for a way to survive.
Finally, they found a way to survive.
"To put it in a metaphor that people in the host's dimension can understand--"
the system said, "The race that created me found their believers."
Ye Qingyue asked in confusion, "Believers?"
"Many years ago, that dimension existed not only the race that created me, but also other weaker lives, but they died out for various reasons."
"Just like the Earth where the host is, the climate has been changing for millions and tens of millions of years. Many lives could not adapt to the new climate and gradually died, and eventually became extinct."
The system explained patiently: "Before those lives died out, the race that created me was the most powerful in strength and technology, and was worshipped by many lives. They exchanged merit points for the things they needed to survive, and each took what he needed."
Being strong also has a price. The race that created the system uses merit points as "nutrients" to survive, but they themselves cannot "produce" merit points.
Finally, when those weak lives were extinct, they had no source of merit points, so they had to develop a high-tech system, trying to use the system to break through the dimension and seek new life.
The only successful one was the system connected to Ye Qingyue.
"After all these years of wandering, the race that created my life has found new life. Although the number is small and extremely weak, with the development and changes of that dimension, it will soon be able to stand on its own and become a reliable existence."
The system said: "The new life will be like those weak lives in the past, exchanging merit points for survival, each taking what they need, and relying on each other to survive."
After listening to Ye Qingyue, she was silent for a long time, and she said: "So, are you leaving?"
The race that created the system has found their believers, and they can live well without relying on her to earn merit points.
In this case, the system seems to have no need to stay in this dimension.
"Yes, I will leave this dimension, but this space and all the products here are my race's farewell gifts to the host. The system's store will continue to be open to the host. If the host needs it, we will serve you at any time."
The emotionless electronic voice of the system was inexplicably softer at this moment: "The host no longer needs to bear the burden of living for others. From now on, the host can live for himself. This is also my race's sincere blessing to the host."
In the previous life, Ye Qingyue had always lived for others.
In this life, they hope that Ye Qingyue will live for themselves.
Ye Qingyue's eyes were red: "But I'm not ready to leave yet."
The system said: "No one is willing to accept separation, so no one can be ready to leave."
After a pause, the system saw that Ye Qingyue was crying fiercely, and added: "What's more, we are not completely separated from the host. If the host needs it, as I just said, you can contact us, and we will help the host."
This space is the hub connecting the two dimensions.
Ye Qingyue asked: "Are you leaving now?"
The system said: "The other dimension needs me."
Ye Qingyue said again: "But I'm getting married tomorrow."
The system said, "I have left the blessing gift on the tea table in the villa."
Ye Qingyue understood that the other dimension probably really needed the system's help, otherwise it would not have called her back so quickly to discuss it and told her the truth.
Knowing that the system's departure was inevitable, Ye Qingyue did not insist on stopping it.
She said, "I have one last wish."
The system said, "Host, please tell me."
"A long time ago, I asked you if you could condense a physical body and give me a hug. You said no at that time..."
Ye Qingyue wiped her tears and smiled, "You were lying to me, right?"
She finished speaking, and the next second, the air in front of her flashed with faint blue dots of light, which quickly gathered together and condensed into a human figure.
The person had hands and feet, and regular features, no different from an earthling.
It's just that face...
Ye Qingyue was stunned: "Did you mold it based on my mother's and my sister's faces?"
This face seemed like a combination of Ye Xianghong and Ye Mei, strange yet familiar.
The humanoid figure that the system transformed into had no expression, and asked seriously: "Does the host hate it? I can transform into something else."
"No."
Ye Qingyue stood up from the chair and hugged the humanoid figure that the system transformed into. The corners of her eyes, which had been wiped dry, were wet again. She choked and said: "When I was alone in my previous life, you were like my sister, like my mother, like my family... You always stayed by my side, and this look was just right."
A long time ago, Ye Qingyue had already regarded the system as a part of her body, as a relative connected to her by blood.
But all good things must come to an end.
Ye Qingyue said softly: "Thank you."
When I was lonely, you accompanied me, cared for me, and took care of me.
"And..."
Ye Qingyue hugged her tightly and said softly: "Sister Leng, goodbye."
I must say goodbye.
