Chapter 51 System Shakes the Blades
Adjusting the memories of a group of people and making changes to several people is not an easy task. Mian Li was listless for several days and slept very deeply every night before he finally recovered.
Qi Rui is on vacation this week and Xiaohui has nothing to do. The couple missed Mianli very much, so they took the child home from daycare.
Although Mianli was reluctant to leave Jiajia, he hadn't played with Huihui and Ruirui for a long time.
The three-year-old child seemed to suddenly understand that it might not be possible to be with everyone he liked forever.
At many moments in life, even gods have to make choices.
However, before realizing the truth, He had already done the right thing: It was precisely because He could not have the best of both worlds, and could not be surrounded by both Father God and Cancan at the same time, that He chose the latter and then sought the help of the ferocious beast.
——Speaking of Xinzi, Mianli was pleasantly surprised to find that the isolation power it bestowed was effective: no one could really find him.
The messenger Oriel was sent by God the Father to protect Him, and therefore, he had a special channel between him and Him.
Sleeping Ritual can summon Aulier at any time, and the other party can also briefly invade his space as needed.
This was the principle behind our previous meetings.
After absorbing Xinzi's isolating power, Mianli tried to secretly summon Aulier, but the other party did not respond. You know, based on the degree of Aulier's obedience to Him in the past, it might be more timely than a human answering a call from the boss.
But He tried to call out O'Leary several times in His consciousness, but heard no echo.
The child felt a little lost, but mostly happy: If Oriel couldn't hear Him, then there was no way anyone else could do it.
He can finally be free from the supervision of God the Father!
Even after being excited for a while, Mianli was still feeling uneasy.
After all, every child who makes a mistake worries about being punished by his or her parents.
It is impossible to guess what the situation is like on Father God's side.
He decided to go and “take a look.”
While Qi Rui and Xiao Hui were taking a nap, Mian Li hid behind the gauze curtain of the bay window in the study, found some pillows to build a barrier, and then bribed two cats with cat strips to act as guards, creating a temporary small castle.
The little fairy crossed his legs, closed his eyes and meditated with peace of mind.
After a moment, enter the private space.
His body remains in this world, but his consciousness can roam everywhere.
Once, He demonstrated to Zhuo Can the process of His "creation of the world" using this very ability.
Mianli returned to the tower, but did not go to his own amusement park immediately. Instead, his first stop was to visit the player's lounge.
When He was still "on duty", He rarely came here.
This place is a gathering place of human greed:
Some people want to leave, which is, of course, the most impossible thing;
Some people want to drag their enemies into the fight so that everyone can torture each other;
Someone buys/kills the person who excluded him in the previous instance;
Some people want money, points, and the best equipment;
Some people want power and want to form a guild so that everyone can serve them;
…
All kinds of desires accumulate and expand, and then collide with others, until everyone's heart becomes strange and twisted.
Mianli was still young and didn't quite understand, but he thought it was too noisy.
I would rather stay in a lonely and boring amusement park than wade into muddy water.
But today when the Lord God came, surprisingly, there was no noise of desire as in the past. Instead, everyone was singing happily.
Mianli moved closer out of curiosity and found that someone was celebrating a birthday.
That was a child who was a little older than Him.
According to the rule that the gods only select adult players to enter the tower, this child is most likely a second-generation "tower" player, whose parents were chosen together, or fell in love from strangers and then gave birth to him.
In the points mall of the escape game, the equipment is shockingly expensive, but ordinary items and even luxury goods in the real world are very cheap.
Many people in the square exchanged some small gifts for him.
Now, they are surrounding him and singing Happy Birthday.
There is a cake with candles in front of the child.
He closed his eyes and made a wish, looking very happy.
The parents stood on either side, their faces filled with joy and pride.
They loved him so much.
Mian Li watched from afar, his heart in a knot.
He didn't know why he was like this.
He didn't know that this sour and bitter feeling should be called envy.
*
Mianli is three years old, and God the Father has never celebrated His birthday.
Forget about preparing any special birthday surprises. Father God is so busy that it is a luxury to see him.
So it is normal for God the Father to forget His third birthday.
Oriel brought a group of gods' messengers, brought a cake, and stood together to sing the birthday song like ordinary people.
But the people in white were all wearing masks, and their tone was flat and dry.
Not to mention the Happy Birthday song, even a wedding march or even a sad tune would make no difference.
They sang, Happy Birthday to You, Lord God.
It’s just like saying on a daily basis, Lord God, I’m here to report my work.
Later, when it was Mian Li's turn to make a wish, an emergency occurred in the tower, and Oriel led the entire army to retreat with guilt.
The young god was left alone, eating the cake bite by bite with a small silver spoon engraved with flower patterns.
The cake is made of taro paste, mousse, cream and ice cream.
They are all His favorite sweets.
The cake is so sweet.
Children are the group of people who love and look forward to birthdays the most, but adults always make messy preparations.
However, when the messengers left, Mianli actually breathed a sigh of relief.
Because He has no desire at all.
He once hoped that God the Father could spend more time with him.
It soon became clear that this wish was impossible to achieve.
He also had another wish, which was to know who his Mother Goddess was.
According to the understanding of bedtime rituals, children should have a father and a mother.
Some people's fathers or mothers are not around, maybe they are dead, maybe they ran away, or maybe they just don't love them.
But all children should have a dad and a mom.
The young Him wondered why he had never seen the Mother Goddess.
He asked this question to Oriel, who, with a trembling voice, said, "You have no Mother Goddess."
Mianli was even more confused: Without the Mother Goddess, how could the Father God create himself?
He asked again, but Oriel refused to speak.
Not only Oriel, but all the gods kept silent about it.
I no longer thought about the sleeping ceremony.
Perhaps, it is enough for my birth to be accomplished solely by God the Father.
Perhaps He really does not have a Mother Goddess.
The song that Oriel and the others learned to sing from humans goes like this: Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you.
Who will bless Him?
He only has a birthday, no happiness.
The little god looked at the joy of human beings from afar with loneliness.
He suddenly remembered that he also had a "Happy Birthday" - the party that Zhuo Can held for him not long ago.
There was also a lot of joy at that party before the coming of God the Father.
Mian Li recalled the few months since entering the human world, and the moments he spent with humans:
Zhuo Can would lean his head against his every night, flipping through picture books and telling stories with him, and Can Can would always fall asleep first;
Luzon will buy anything He wants, whether it be the stars or the moon;
Qi Rui and Xiao Hui treated him as their own child. When they took him to the park, they looked like a family of three.
Although Zhizhi and Taotao complained verbally occasionally, they were always obedient in their actions.
Teacher Min always secretly saved the biggest cookies for him;
Even the baby Tao Mian would ask Him to hold him.
Oh yes, there is also Tao Yingjia.
Ben Jiajia is the first good friend of the same age that he has.
They build blocks together in the nursery class, eat snacks, and always form a fixed group when playing games in pairs.
Of course we have to sleep together during the lunch break.
Although Jia Jia always hugged him so tightly that he was so warm that he kicked off the quilt.
Jia Jia also accompanied him over mountains and across rivers to find the jelly beast.
Jia Jia had never been on a jungle adventure alone before, and she was scared when she saw Xin Zi, but he still bravely protected himself.
Jiajia is Lili’s best friend.
Maybe, better than friends.
It is not that He is unloved; He is so loved by mankind—He is deeply loved by them.
When Mianli thought of this, he felt happy again.
He is a super cute and awesome little god!
*
After recovering his composure, the little Lord God continued to patrol his territory.
Not only the lounge, He also randomly went to more than a dozen copies.
There are abandoned hospitals, scary campuses, and spooky villages.
There are also golden towers, ancient tower priests, and snowy deserts.
…
The crystal Rubik's Cube left to Him by His Father God can create thousands of completely different worlds with just a twist.
No matter where he went, no matter how harsh the environment was, or how difficult the dungeon was, what Mian Li saw were scenes of unity and friendship among the players.
No longer fighting each other for a few points, but working together, sharing information, and overcoming difficulties
They cherish every moment, and no one thinks about whether they will be dragged into the abyss of death in the next minute.
The atmosphere in the tower is completely new, so new that it seems a little strange.
Although he could not diagnose anything, the Lord God had his own divine intuition.
Something must be wrong.
After all, this is a world that Mianli personally manages. If there is a problem with its operation, even if it is in a good direction, he will always be involved.
(He felt absolutely no guilt about missing a few months of work.)
Normally, he would go and ask Oriel, but today he sneaked back, and he certainly couldn't let the gods' messengers know.
Mianli held her little face in her hands and thought about it.
Yes, He can ask the system!
The system is an attached part of the Crystal Cube. It is the most advanced AI that human technology cannot catch up with even if it develops for another three hundred years.
It has no "form", it is a program, or consciousness.
It was born from the Rubik's Cube. From the first time it was started, a fixed algorithm was implanted in it. It could not be changed or damaged until it was stopped by the Lord God.
It is not supervised by anyone except the main god, not even the god of gods.
Simply put, the system is more loyal than O'Leary - it only obeys Yu Mianli.
Mianli "returns" to his own paradise.
His consciousness rode on a Ferris wheel cabin and flew towards the clouds.
Among the countless white, ordinary clouds, there was one with a very abrupt color: it was very similar to the color of the young god's eyes, a sweet light brown, and looked like a caramel-filled marshmallow.
This cloud is a forbidden place for God's messengers, and even Oriel has never been here.
Mian Li's consciousness opened the door of the car and jumped into the soft clouds.
Ah, the long-lost caramel!
He rolled over with joy, regretting that his real body didn't come, otherwise it would have been more comfortable.
The young god rolled back and forth on the clouds.
Suddenly he got up.
That’s not right, He is here to do serious business!
The young god patted the bouncy cotton wool on the cloud: "Come out, come out!"
After a while, a tender green grass emerged from the clouds.
——Who would have thought that this is the system that controls the life and death of countless players, has no mercy at all, and is known as a cold-blooded "killing" machine.
When the system saw Him, it said respectfully, "Welcome back, Lord God."
The system is concretely determined by the will of the main god. For Mian Li, it is a small bud formed by the accumulation of light.
Mianli hasn't seen it for a long time and misses it very much.
He spun in circles, conjured up a small elephant kettle, lifted it up and watered the system: "Hello, hello~"
Existing in the form of a seedling for a long time, the system is as fair and cruel as ever when facing players.
But when it faces the young creator, it will assimilate and think that it is just a small sprout.
The system's blades trembled: "Lord God, you haven't been here for a long time."
Its usually cold and ruthless voice actually sounded a bit aggrieved.
Mianli felt very guilty.
When he is sad, Cancan will touch his head.
The little Lord God imitated humans and touched the small leaf of the system.
The system's blades stretched out again, and it was more energetic: "Lord God, what do you need?"
Mianli said, "Lili wants to see the records."
"Okay, Lord God, please wait a moment."
Mianli stepped back. In the blink of an eye, the system grew from a palm-sized seedling into a towering tree.
The ancient tree emerging from the caramel-colored clouds was lush and leafy, with a thick trunk and a diameter so long that even adults would need several people to hug it together.
Each leaf above is a complete record of a single copy on a certain day.
The tree will exist forever, the leaves will grow infinitely, and the system's records will never be lost.
Mian Li's consciousness drifted to the leaves, and he held his breath and concentrated.
Faced with more data than the water in the ocean, the little boy didn't actually know what to look for.
Fortunately, the system is smart enough to filter out abnormal data and present it.
The big tree suddenly emitted a brilliant light.
After it went out, Mianli opened his eyes and saw a withered yellow leaf shaking in front of him.
He poked it with his little finger, and then the scroll came to life and flooded into his mind.
One day, the boy saw Wang Er showing off his power in the lounge.
Then, the system sounded an alarm, and a divine messenger in white descended from the sky and took Wang Er away.
The scene changes and we enter the main god's amusement park.
Next to the carousel, a man in white was holding the expressionless little god.
Wang Er knelt on the ground and cried for the gods to spare him, but his wish was unfulfilled.
The young god glanced at him indifferently and announced, "Permanently confiscated."
The pink carriage opened its mouth and swallowed up the unruly players.
Then, the messenger of God took the young god away.
Go to a place where even the system cannot monitor it.
The backs of the messenger of God and the young god disappeared into the vast white mist.
This is the end of the record.
*
Outside the scroll, the boy confirmed the marked date and lowered his hands.
...The "sleeping ceremony" here is not Him.
He had indeed punished Wang Er, that was on the first day he and Cancan met.
But that time, He only punished Wang Er by not allowing him to eat delicious food, and never directly sentenced him to death.
Moreover, just after punishing Wang Er, he was unfortunately brought back to the human world by Cancan, who was lucky enough to complete all the copies.
From that day on, His true body never returned to the other world.
This "sleeping ceremony" could not possibly be Him himself.
The boy replayed the video again, focusing on Mian Li's face.
He saw a cold expression on this familiar face that definitely did not belong to him.
Cold, arrogant, like the biting lake water in winter.
Anyone who dares to step out of line will be frozen immediately.
Although this expression was not His, it was not unfamiliar.
On the contrary, it's actually very familiar.
It has only been seen in one person—His Father God.
Mian Li continued to zoom in on the picture, and saw an icy blue in the depths of those amber pupils.
Everything was clear: the kind-hearted spirit “on duty” for Him was none other than Jiang Xiao.
The mechanism set up by the system will only obey Mianli's orders.
Therefore, even if the God of Gods exceeds his authority and takes over, he must transform into the appearance of a lesser god.
Except for O'Leary, who knows the inside story, no one can tell the truth from the false - not even the system.
Mianli let the system return to the form of the seedling, sat opposite it, and thought slowly.
Mian Li didn't know that in order to check his own life and ensure that the people around him had no ulterior motives, Jiang Xiao entered Lu Song's company and "lurked" as CFO Jiang for a while.
He calculated the time and found that his busy Father God had come to the tower to clean up the mess for him before coming to the world to find him.
Moreover, the Father God's iron-blooded hand has put the chaotic alien world in order, and it is now thriving.
It is clearly an example worthy of being used as an educational model.
But neither the Father God himself nor Oriel told Him about this.
They just said, “It’s time to come back.”
Why?
The child couldn't understand.
If you can’t think of it, just stop thinking about it.
Anyway, this means that even if I'm not there, the "Tower" can still run smoothly.
Anyway, when things get bad, Father God will come and take over.
Because the Father God will not allow order to be destroyed by opportunistic players like Wang Er, and will not allow any established space to collapse.
It is not that God the Father is without love, but God's love is given equally to all living beings in the world.
Therefore, God the Father had no extra love for Him.
Mianli thought again, Cancan loves him the most, so Cancan is still the best.
Father God…the worst!
The little god decided that he would leave home.
Moreover, if you want to run away from home, you have to be away for a very long time!
snort.
He would never miss God the Father.
