Chapter 15: Falling into an Ice Cellar The passion is indeed quite passionate. Although...
"Why do you say that..."
Li Ming heard his own voice suddenly ringing in his ears. His tone was so trembling that he almost couldn't recognize it.
Was it his actions that had an impact?
Li Ming's mouth forced a bitter smile: If that was the case, he would rather die at the beginning of the academy copy. No, that's not right, he couldn't think like that...
Li Ming thought of his sister who had no news yet, and his eyes gradually became firm: even if he really wanted to die, he could only die after seeing Li Yixi with his own eyes.
[Subject: I'm betting on the complete hardcover comic book signed by Lao Zei. I'm betting on the timeline of this time. The order of death of the four people in the dormitory is: Wei Zhehan < Zhou Haoyu < Jiang Huai < Li Ming]
[1L: Hey, you really dare to bet. Baishan Laozei's autograph is quite rare, and it's a complete set of comics. ]
[2L: I just checked the second-hand software. The market price for a set of hardcover comics that are not separated is about 700 to 800 yuan. However, the author of the post also bet on the autograph of the old thief...]
【3L: Summary in one sentence: The host is rich. 】
[4L: Boss, can you let us see your signature first? QAQ]
[5L OP: It's okay, I still have a set of the complete comics signed by Lao Zei. Don't worry, I won't cheat.]
[6L OP: (picture.jpg) (picture.jpg)]
【7L: !!!】
[8L: Damn, it’s actually true! ]
[9L: Are you planning to give one copy to everyone? Can I have one? Will I be lucky enough to have one (peek)]
[10L: Hiss… I suspect the poster is from the publishing house, or knows the old thief…]
【11L OP (reply to 9L): No, only one set will be given away. 】
[12L OP (replying to 10L): I am not from the publishing house, and I don’t know Lao Zei, but I do know someone who works at the publishing house.]
【13L OP: Okay, back to the point. After reading the first few chapters of the comic, I was actually wondering why Li Ming didn't survive past the beginning of the first part. His on-the-spot reaction and decision-making ability are good. He may have some problems with physical fitness and verbal communication, but he won't die at the beginning.】
[14L: Even the strongest seeded players are afraid of facing the world champion in the preliminary round. ]
【15L: Li Ming died in the teaching building in the previous timeline. Everyone knows what the teaching building is like. The difficulty ranking of campus dungeons is:
Administration Building>Teaching Building>Library>Playground>……】
[16L: The most important point is: Li Ming's talent is not offensive. Jiang Huai's talent can be offensive or defensive, but he almost died in the library when he first got the talent.
In this case, it is normal for Li Ming to die at the beginning. 】
【17L OP: But that’s what I’m confused about. Who would have thought that Li Ming’s talent would be A-01’s insight talent? After reading the first few chapters of the second part, I kept wondering if Lao Zei had planned from the beginning to let Li Ming be the male lead in the second part.】
[18L: I really feel that. A lot of the information revealed in the previous game can correspond to the current situation.]
【19L: "You are not the Messiah, but you are indeed the savior. Because the Messiah only exists in mankind's past, and you are in your future." - From the little fortune teller.
The little witch's words really gave me the creeps. 】
[20L: Now Jianghuai has restarted the timeline. We have returned to the past of mankind and also arrived at the future of Jianghuai.]
【21L: Is it possible that Li Ming is the Messiah? The little witch said that the Messiah does not exist in the current timeline, and Li Ming also died at the beginning.
So this wave of world replay is back to when the Messiah was still alive? 】
【22L: No.】
[23L: What are you thinking? The Messiah is not a human being. Just the fact that Li Ming is a human being can rule him out. Hahaha, it makes me laugh when I think about this.]
【24L：
"We have communicated with the surviving forces in other countries and regions. Among them, there are prophets like the little witch who can see fate and make predictions."
"So what's the result?"
"The little witch's interpretation is correct."
“…”
“They all agree that the hope that can save humanity and end the catastrophe does not come from humanity itself.”]
…
Li Ming was stunned when he saw this. He initially just wanted to know why the forum readers dared to assert the order of death, but now he could clearly see that the topic had gone astray.
Messiah, savior, little witch...
Li Ming scratched his head in annoyance: He had never come across any of these professional terms before. Isn’t it a bit too early to understand them now?
"But I seem to be able to guess the meaning." Li Ming muttered while staring at the screen.
The little witch should be the first character to appear in the comics. She once made a prophecy about the "savior who can end the disaster", but her interpretation was later considered wrong.
But in subsequent developments, the interpretation was confirmed to be correct by many forces.
But why are the Messiah and the Savior not the same person? Li Ming frowned and recalled the contents of the Bible. The Bible said that the Messiah was the Savior chosen by God to save the world.
But the little witch's words clearly pointed out that Jiang Huai was a savior, but not the Messiah.
Wait, the Messiah is not a human.
Li Ming realized belatedly: comics are not reality after all. Could it be that the "Messiah" they were talking about was the name of an object? Does the savior need to obtain the Messiah to truly end the disaster?
"The hope that can save humanity and end the disaster does not come from humans themselves." Li Ming whispered this sentence. Then he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "It's as if no matter how hard humans struggle, it will be useless."
He knocked his head in despair:
"Let's talk about the rest later. It's useless to know this now..."
[57L: Why are your topics getting more and more off-topic? Is it because the post next door is so popular? ]
【58L: Hahaha, that’s right.】
【59L: I laughed my ass off. I talked about a lot of things that have nothing to do with the title without realizing it. But the guy in the next thread is really awesome. He directly quoted the content of the original comic to convince people.】
【60L: Has anyone seen the owner of this building? 】
[61L: Yes, why did the host disappear midway? ]
[62L OP (reply to 50L): Come on, I’m back. My scalp is tingling from watching the debate next door, and now I finally remembered that I still have a post.]
[63L: I was just discussing something with my friend. I have a bad habit of chatting before doing something serious. Sorry to have kept you waiting.]
【64L: First of all, I have to state that I have no ill will towards the above mentioned people (especially Wei Zhehan). But I think the situation that Xiao Wei will face in the future is indeed much more difficult than that of the other three people.】
【65L: That’s true.】
[66L: Xiao Wei was the first to leave, except for Li Ming, even in the first part...]
…
Li Ming froze in place. He rubbed his eyes, but when he looked closer at the screen, he still saw these words.
Didn't everyone live to see the finale?
A biting chill swept through his body.
Li Ming sighed in despair: He should have understood this... In a comic with a doomsday background, everyone except the protagonist could die midway...
[67L: I quite like Xiao Wei. In the first episode, when the junior student came to the dormitory head to ask for help in finding a roommate, he immediately thought of Li Ming who was not there either. It was obvious at that time that he and Li Ming had a really good relationship.]
【68L: But that also led to the two people acting separately. If Xiao Wei had not separated from the dormitory head at that time, the junior brother could have survived. But the two of them separated.】
[69L: They separated, and it became a nightmare that haunted both of them. The dormitory head hated himself for not saving his junior, and Xiao Wei hated himself for not recognizing Li Ming.]
【70L: But they clearly tried their best at that time TAT. 】
[71L: Li Ming had already been assimilated at that time. He was assimilated differently from the junior fellow student in this timeline, so he could no longer be saved.]
【72L: So he chose to let Xiao Wei go back alone.】
【73L: I can only say that it’s a good thing that Xiao Wei didn’t recognize him, otherwise both of them would have died in the teaching building.
Li Ming was really Xiao Wei's perfect love. Xiao Wei confessed to Jiang Huai what happened that day until the night before his death. He really regretted it.
[74L: "Much later after the story ended, he finally realized his friend's unspoken request for help. As he felt cold all over, he understood that his friend had given up the request for help because of him."]
…
"Is that so..."
Li Ming's pupils reflected the words on the forum faithfully, and he muttered absentmindedly.
Although he still didn't know what happened in the previous game, he felt inexplicably relieved when he knew his actions before his death.
Although this ending is terrible, it is not bad.
But Li Ming could already imagine that when everyone returned to the dormitory that day, the atmosphere must have been extremely depressing. The three of them encountered something that they could not let go of on the same day.
"It's a bit bad..." Li Ming said to himself bitterly.
He clearly had many things he wanted to do, he clearly had a sister to find, and he clearly wanted to survive, but at the last moment, he looked at the ignorant Wei Zhehan standing in front of him——
He was thinking:
At least let Xiao Wei survive.
This is the action that Li Ming in the comics would take, and it is also the action he would take.
Because they are the same person, because Li Ming understands better than anyone how unwilling he is, but he also understands better than anyone that if he were faced with such a dilemma, he would definitely make the same choice.
"Why did you go to the teaching building that day?"
Li Ming murmured in a somewhat depressed tone. He didn't quite understand why the comic version of himself went to the teaching building on the day of the disaster, but it was meaningless to find out the reason.
【75L OP: I felt uncomfortable when I saw that part. Lao Zei's layout and emotional rendering are really amazing, but the main plot is too realistic and dark, which makes it difficult for me to sell it.
Several of my friends said they dared not watch it. 】
[76L OP: I think I'm off topic again, let's continue.]
【77L OP: Wei Zhehan is, after all, the son of the leader of the Jiangbei base, so he must shoulder more responsibilities than the others.
Originally, high-sequence talents were almost only awakened in the younger generation. If he chose to go home immediately after the academy copy was completed, he would undoubtedly follow the old path. 】
[78L: Everyone can see this QAQ]
【79L OP: Besides these, there is also the dormitory head.
After the college dungeon was over, the dormitory leader, like Wei Zhehan, left the main group. But he was better than Wei Zhehan in that his talent was auxiliary, so he didn't need to go to the front line often.
Because auxiliary talents are very rare, the military will also try their best to ensure his safety. Except for the disaster areas that seriously threaten the survival of mankind but he must go there, his safety can be guaranteed. 】
[80L: I'm talking about the Blood Moon's Nest (smile)]
[81L: In the Blood Moon's Nest, one out of ten dies and one returns.]
[82L: I shed most of my life’s tears during the year when the Blood Moon’s Lair dungeon was serialized. It hurt, it hurt so much, it hurt so much that I had no desire to live.]
[83L: The moon is white, hahahaha, the moon is white (I’m not crazy, I’m not crazy)]
【84L OP: The only person who makes me feel awkward is Li Ming. It can be seen that Li Ming intends to go to the south to find his sister after the academy dungeon is over, but his talent sequence is not aggressive...
But I believe in Lao Zei. Lao Zei will definitely not end the sequel so early, unless he plans to change the male lead in the middle of the sequel. 】
[85L: Not very likely. If the old thief really wants to change the ending of the world's destruction, then Li Ming, who has the talent of insight, will definitely go to the capital.]
[86L: The talent of insight and prophecy do not overlap. The theoretical sequence that he laid out for so long in the previous work cannot be eliminated in the early stage. Although I am confused as to why those scientists dared to assert that "there must be a sequence above the sequence that can see through all talent sequences." ]
[87L: The reason is very simple. Because the order of the talent sequence is not determined by humans, but is later understood by the Apocalypse who possesses the talent sequence.]
【88L: So funny, I really thought God existed. 】
【89L: But Lao Zei didn’t explain why in the end. When I first read “The Mist” as a cool comic, I wasn’t curious about it, but Lao Zei——
I admit that he is really good at laying out foreshadowings and also really good at completing them. 】
[90L: There will definitely be a sequel, unless he plans to become a razor blade wholesaler (smile)]
【91L OP (reply to 85L): Yes, it is unlikely. So I put Li Ming last, followed by Jiang Huai. Jiang Huai is not the male lead in the sequel, and he is more dangerous than Li Ming because of his flag.
The old thief has always wanted to kill Jiang Huai.
He has revealed this idea in interviews with publishers and magazine columns. The only thing I don't know is whether he still has this idea after Jiang Huai was killed in the previous ending. 】
[92L: Damn it]
[93L: Did he really say that? Could his ideas be any more ridiculous?]
[94L: Damn]
[95L: Doesn’t Baishan Laozi understand why he doesn’t fit the description of passionate shonen comics? Among the top 10 cool shonen comics, only his is a dark and cruel one]
【96L: It is indeed very passionate. Although it is hot blood that is splashing (smile).】
[97L: But I read comics just for Jiang Huai QAQ]
【98L: ...Outrageous.】
…
Li Ming was silent: ...outrageous.
After reading the forum for so long, he found that JAC’s death flag was the most outrageous.
Li Ming pulled the corners of his stiff mouth expressionlessly.
But it seems that the order of death in their dormitory in the previous comic was: Li Ming < Wei Zhehan < Zhou Haoyu < Jiang Huai.
Li Ming couldn't help but sigh when he thought of this.
Previously, he thought that his actions had affected the future of several people in the dormitory, but after reading the post, he was caught off guard to find out that everyone's previous work was dead.
The only difference between them is:
Some people die early, some die late.
"That's right..." Li Ming muttered in disappointment. His pupils were inexplicably stimulated by the white light and felt itchy and painful. "All the protagonists have died. The protagonist has destroyed the world... It's normal for many people to die in a comic like this..."
that is……
He didn't know how to face his roommate when he woke up.
