Chapter 389 "...Where's Yueyue?"



[…I grew up in Praia and saw a lot of things.]

[Many people have not become an independent "person" since they were born, and they do not regard themselves as people. ]

[A symbol, a name, a mark engraved on a stone tablet. This is how the sacrificed soul hunters understood themselves, like firewood and firewood. From the moment they fired their first shot, they regarded themselves as a brick and stone of this land.]

[The princess said, you only treat us as mechanical gears, as swords or guns that can be used, but you don’t see us as independent living beings...]

[…But Captain, you seem a little different—it seems that I have become a soul that you can communicate with on an equal footing.]

【……】

Then I gradually discovered that

[——It turns out that I am also a ‘human’. ]

[NPC (Xie Lude) Favorability: 95 (Through thick and thin)]

Look at the number in front of you.

Su Mingan's gaze slowly moved downwards.

In front of him, a young man raised his head, with an extremely earnest look, and was staring at him very intently.

The barrage of comments, which was almost going crazy, floated past the upper right corner.

They were discussing intensely:

[Is this really an NPC? You call this an NPC who has awakened his self-awareness?]

[But this is indeed the first NPC I have seen saying that he wants to become a player since I started watching live broadcasts. It is quite rare. ]

[In that case, man, we can also be called NPCs. Our character setting is 'NPCs who think they are players of the world game'. I think this is reasonable. ]

[What are you arguing about? I think it's pretty good. No matter if he's an NPC or a player, isn't it good enough for him to be a helper? ]

[But, everyone. If NPCs can become players, and players can become NPCs, does that mean that we are actually no different from these NPCs? ]

[——Of course it’s different!!!]

[Everyone should remember that these dungeon worlds have been copied. There are many NPCs, but we are the only one! ]

[When did this live broadcast room become a philosophy live broadcast room? I just arrived. Is there any handsome guy who can explain it to me? ]

[——Everyone should think like this, apart from the current distinction between players and NPCs——then can the 'World Game' itself be an independent dungeon world? Can we, the players who claim to be free in various dungeon worlds, also be the 'NPCs' of this largest independent dungeon world? ]

[Indeed, why do you think we are one dimension higher than these NPCs? Why do you think we cannot be the product defined by the "personality" and the "system"? Why do you think we are the only one? Maybe, somewhere we can't see, there is also something one dimension higher than us, controlling our "personality" and behavior in a special form, and we know nothing about it? ]

[Are you kidding me? I am here, living and thinking. My thoughts are clear. How can I not know that someone is controlling my thoughts?]

[Isn't it the same for Sheridan? How does he know if there is something else controlling his thoughts?]

[You can’t argue with that. Anyway, I know that I am an independent person. There is definitely no such thing as something that can control my speech…]

【……】

The discussion in the barrage was extremely intense.

It started out as a normal discussion, but later on it gradually turned into a war of trolls and haters.

The barrage of comments in the live broadcast room was so dense that it flew up like snowflakes. No one knew who was arguing with whom, and some people were already arguing and arguing about going to fight offline.

Because they were compared to NPCs, this group of people felt extremely angry and wanted to immediately remove this possibility from themselves.

“…”

Su Mingan withdrew his gaze and looked at the system taskbar.

The moment Sheldon made the request to him, he heard a "ding dong".

“Ding Dong!”

[Character changes detected... Arranging the world line...]

“Ding Dong!”

[You have unlocked the third-level player mission, character storyline.]

[In this type of mission, you can influence the actions of a specific character through any behavior, so that the other party reaches a different outcome.]

[When the other party reaches the ending, you will receive the mission reward. ]

[Character story missions are equivalent to side missions with higher rewards and have nothing to do with perfect clearance progress. 】

[You have triggered the task/character plot]

[Do you choose to give Noelia's red rose to Sheridan?]

[(Ending of the character Sheldon: HE·Immortality/TE·Endless Road/NE·Decay. Your actions will affect the ending he can achieve.)]

[Quest Reward: Regardless of which of the three endings is achieved, the second skill of the golden equipment "Glory Lasts" will be unlocked. ]

Looking at the series of task prompts that popped up, and then looking at Xie Lude who was kneeling on his knees...

Su Mingan suddenly felt that the words "character ending" were extremely ironic.

...It seemed that the system had anticipated that Sheldon would inevitably reach one of the three endings, and expected that he would not be able to escape any of them.

Maybe Sheridan was right.

No one would be willing to accept that their possibilities and future are suddenly restricted by an incomprehensible existence and they become like a program.

Looking at the bright red line [Will you give Noelia's red rose to Sheridan? (Your behavior will affect his ending)].
