Chapter 46 Changed
-
When the fingers touched the sword, a strong light burst out.
Then, a sharp sound of wind came from behind.
Gu Jinli subconsciously turned sideways to dodge, and a shocking red color almost passed by her body.
"Sister, you disappoint me."
It seemed that my endurance had reached its limit, and the aura of that person came towards me.
Chen Chigui held the sword in his hand with a look of hostility on his face, not being polite at all.
"Do you think you are a savior?! Today I will let you know that you can't do anything."
"You can't take them! You can't leave here!"
…
Boom boom boom——
The two men fought with almost all their strength in the flashing of swords and sabers.
The blood pool began to tremble due to the shock, and the formation was somewhat damaged.
"Once, twice, I gave you too many chances!"
How many times will it take for this person to understand?
What she wanted to save were actually the shackles that bound her.
She has too many weaknesses, everyone wants to save her, and everyone likes her.
But there is no perfect outcome in the world.
"I can save you."
How could he not tell what Chen Chigui was talking about? Gu Jinli suddenly let go of the sword and looked at her without blinking.
"I will save them, save everyone."
"You can't kill me."
【System, I want to load the file. 】
She has one last card up her sleeve.
【are you sure?
After loading the file, the timeline will be restarted and the heroine's favorability value will be reset to zero.
Warm reminder: Current favorability value is 40]
These 40 were the ones that Gu Jinli had worked so hard to save up after so much time.
If you restart, it means nothing.
I’m sure. 】
So what about favorability value?
What she lost was far more important than just this little bit of favorability.
Yes, Gu Jinli had the idea of restarting a long time ago.
But she kept enduring it, always thinking about waiting a little longer.
She wanted to see if Shen Chigui would change, and wanted to see if this man would regret it.
But the reality is that there is no such thing.
So what if the favorability value is 40.
It doesn't mean anything.
[Instructions received. The only opportunity to load the file is being used for you.] 】
When this sentence fell.
Everything was frozen.
The air stops flowing and the sound stops.
Everything present, whether it was the heroine or the treasures that were moving around in a hurry, was frozen like a paused movie.
Faintly, Gu Jinli seemed to see a door slowly opening in front of her, with the sudden burst of light serving as an embellishment.
The world began to fade.
【Please go in and select your save line. 】
*
The biggest golden finger is used up like this.
This was a decision Gu Jinli made after careful consideration.
But she was a little hesitant about which timeline to load the save file.
To be honest, she has rarely saved files since she broke up with Shen Chigui ten years ago.
But in order to save everyone, she seemed to have no choice but to do it when nothing was started.
Then it can only be——
[Selected.] 】
[Transmission is about to begin.] 】
【Three, two, one
……】
…
As the system prompt sounded, Gu Jinli’s thoughts quickly began to blur.
But in the last second before her consciousness faded, she seemed to see Shen Chigui, who should have been frozen, move.
What's going on? !
-
[Transmission successful.] 】
[Current timeline: 360 years of Fengyao calendar.] 】
[The current plot line is being refreshed.]
The favorability value has been reset to zero. 】
…
She succeeded.
When he opened his eyes again, the yellow sand all over the sky quickly attracted Gu Jinli's attention.
She looked around and saw that besides herself there was a young Shen Chigui and a large group of familiar-looking humans.
It’s here…
Gu Jinli remembered.
The current time period should be after entering the secret realm with the heroine, experiencing the quicksand incident, and meeting the team in the desert stone forest.
Next, she and the heroine will join the team and walk all the way to the Tower of Babel to encounter man-eating ants.
"elder sister?"
As soon as he opened his eyes, he found that the time had been reset, and Shen Chigui was silent for a moment.
She didn't expect that Gu Jinli had such a skill.
In other words, this is the first time such a situation has occurred after meeting so many attackers.
Are you really unwilling to be with me?
So much so that...
After noticing the situation around him, Shen Chigui's thoughts quickly became heavy.
Yes, the most urgent task now is to quickly confirm Gu Jinli’s existence.
Instead of worrying about why it restarted.
If the timeline is here, it should still be that person, right?
“…”
Looking in the direction of the voice, I saw the much younger heroine.
Gu Jinli's mood was extremely complicated.
Thinking about it carefully, I seem to be more familiar with the heroine's childhood.
After they became adults, they had only been together for a little over half a month.
At this moment, the heroine doesn't seem to have such great destructive power, but Gu Jinli knows that the other party's character has been formed long ago.
She can no longer hold out hope for this person. This time she will use her own methods to protect those who need protection.
Thinking of this, Gu Jinli looked around.
She remembered that their team would have to walk for several days before they could see the Tower of Babel and encounter the man-eating ants.
Therefore, it is highly likely that the heroine has not taken any action at this time.
She wants to save these people.
After making a secret decision, Gu Jinli turned around and walked outside without thinking.
Behind her, the young Shen Chigui followed without surprise.
"Sister, where are you going?" the man asked.
Gu Jinli didn't say anything, just kept walking forward.
After walking a long way with the heroine behind him, he slowly said, "I remembered that something fell into the quicksand pit, and I want to go back and take a look."
Something fell into a pit of quicksand?
"Sister, what is it?"
Although I asked this, the heavy stone in my heart had already fallen.
Chen Chigui confirmed it instantly. This was undoubtedly her hypocritical creator.
Making such a decision suddenly, perhaps because you are worried about repeating the same mistake again?
never mind.
This time she just followed his will.
-
-
Not knowing what Chen Chigui was thinking, Gu Jinli led the man forward.
After walking for a whole night and figuring that those people had already left, we found a place to rest.
"I can't walk anymore, take a rest."
The biggest advantage of starting over is that you can estimate the direction you came from. Gu Jinli found a sand pile and sat down. He took out the monster meat from his storage bag and said, "The roads here are all similar. Let's look for it later. If we can't find it, forget it."
It was a lie, so how could I really go back to the sand pit?
Gu Jinli delayed time and only took action when it was almost dark.
"Is it something important?"
Sitting down opposite Gu Jinli, Shen Chigui took the monster meat and took a bite, then deliberately asked, "Why didn't I hear my sister mention this before?"
"I don't need to tell you everything."
Chewing the food in his hand with an expressionless face, Gu Jinli answered bluntly.
If she was a little afraid of Shen Chigui before, now she is not afraid of him at all.
At worst, they'll just have a fight. She's had enough.
"All right."
Blinking, Shen Chigui muttered: "Sister seems to have changed a lot."
Gu Jinli: “…”
Just pretend you didn't hear it.
…
Estimating that the time was about right, Gu Jinli took the heroine towards the Tower of Babel.
Separating from that group of people was the best way she could think of to prevent them from being attacked by man-eating ants.
As long as Chen Chigui is taken away, that group of people will have a high probability of survival.
Of course, the premise of all this is that those man-eating ants are indeed controlled by Chen Chigui.
That evening, the two of them continued walking on the golden sand dunes illuminated by the sun, facing the last rays of the setting sun.
The further Gu Jinli walked, the more she felt that this road was particularly familiar.
"Sister, look, isn't that the Tower of Babel in front of us?"
The first person to discover the destination was Chen Chigui. She was walking in front and immediately turned around and waved to Gu Jinli.
"Yes."
He determined the direction with just a glance, and Gu Jinli frowned, feeling a bad feeling.
She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she always felt that this road looked familiar.
It seems like this was the route I took last time with the team.
If this is the way...
“Oh no!”
When rustling sounds came from all directions, Gu Jinli's expression suddenly changed.
"It's the man-eating ants!"
So you will definitely encounter man-eating ants on this road!
"Shen Chigui! Run!"
With previous experience, I was not as panicked as the first time I encountered man-eating ants.
Gu Jinli quickly raised her voice and called out to the heroine who was walking in front.
"Man-eating ants?! Nizoren?"
Naturally, he heard Gu Jinli's call. Shen Chigui did not ignore the rustling sounds around him and recognized the number in an instant.
The only man-eating ant in the desert is the Nizoren.
"don’t worry."
Instead of running away, Chen Chigui came to Gu Jinli, grabbed a handful of white-gray stuff from his storage bag, and then sprinkled it on Gu Jinli's clothes.
"I have this. The man-eating ants won't attack us."
After saying that, she didn't forget to apply it on herself as well.
"What's this?"
Naturally, he did not miss a series of actions of the heroine. Gu Jinli touched it with his hand in confusion, then put it under his nose and sniffed it.
No taste at all.
What's this.
"It's some special medicine. Man-eating ants hate the smell and will automatically avoid it when they smell it."
While explaining, Shen Chigui continued to apply it on his body, and said lightly: "The ones who appear now should be the scouts of the man-eating ants. As long as we can deceive them, we won't encounter a large number of ants."
“…”
is that so?
Gu Jinli was stunned.
Her head was buzzing, and looking at the busy heroine in front of her, she suddenly had an idea.
Could it be that...
Was the previous heroine like this too?
Just use the powder to dodge attacks?
There were too many people in the team, which attracted a large number of man-eating ants. Was their being dispersed not intentional?
Chen Chigui did not manipulate the man-eating ants to deliberately separate them, she just went with the flow...
"Where did you learn all this?"
Gu Jinli rubbed the powder in his hand with his fingers, and his expression was not very good.
If this incident was not done by Shen Chigui, he would have just stood by and watched.
She really couldn't blame the other party.
"Did sister forget?"
His eyes scanned her fingers and finally landed on her face.
Chen Chigui thought about it with some regret, wondering why he had to return to this time and could not do anything.
"I am from Gucheng."
The corners of her lips slightly raised, she said word by word: "If you don't learn more, you will die easily!"
"There are plenty of man-eating ants like these in Gu City."
