Su Mingan left the shelter.
Even though he had completed the perfect clearance, he did not choose to go back early.
In the apocalypse, he stayed for the full fifteen days he was supposed to stay, and cleaned out almost the entire city center of Henggang along the way. The zombies would hide away when they saw him.
During this period, he met many survivors. Those people shouted "No. 1 Player". At first, they were all admiring and trying to get in touch with him, but later somehow they turned into fear. They would hide aside and watch him slaughter all the zombies before coming out from the shadows.
Su Ming'an paid attention to the barrage of comments. The popularity of the live broadcast room had reached hundreds of millions, with a long text flashing by every second. He noticed that the audience and the players had completely different attitudes towards him. The players were either in awe of him or kept their distance from him, but the audience's attitude was extremely unrestrained and intimate. There were even many people who openly called him "husband". He understood the meaning of this - at the distance of the adventure world, these audiences would not feel threatened, and even had a dreamy feeling as if they were in love with him.
...because the distance is getting bigger and bigger.
When the distance is large enough, they are no longer people from the same world. The audience can give free rein to their fantasies and no longer regard themselves as human beings, but as virtual lovers or beliefs that are looked up to and imagined.

[Ding Dong! You have been upgraded to a (Level 17) player]
…
After clearing out the last zombie nearby, Su Mingan ignored his clone and opened his eyes.
Yu Ruohe was still sitting next to him, chewing on the food he had dropped earlier.
"You're finally done. You've been sitting here for five days. But there's been no one around. I've been paying attention." Yu Ruohe turned around when she heard the noise and saw bloodshot eyes and deep fatigue in Su Ming'an's eyes.
Su Mingan controlled his clone for a long time, for five full days.
Even though Yu Ruohe had slept during this period, he didn't. His high spirits and perseverance kept him going... because he had to seize the time and expand his advantage as soon as possible while his own combat power soared.
Yu Ruohe was a little touched when she saw the fatigue in his eyes. Su Mingan was defenseless when he controlled the clone, but he trusted her care.
"You've worked hard. Would you like to eat something?" Yu Ruohe asked him.
Su Mingan shook his head. His original body was in a terrible state. His physical strength had dropped to the bottom due to not replenishing food for a long time. He put all his energy on his clone. At this time, his original body was as weak as paper and it was difficult for him to even stand up.
...But it doesn't matter.
He just needs to seize every opportunity to improve.
He admires people like Yang Changxu.
But he can't be that kind of person because his only goal is.
[The First Player] should be the strongest player, not a top star, nor a great philanthropist admired by everyone.
He could only do small things without affecting the growth of his own strength - such as upgrading while clearing the difficulties in the shelter.
——But his primary goal must be to become stronger and win in the end.
Before the final victory,
… He has to be selfish.
Su Mingan thought carefully about whether there were any mistakes or omissions. After finding that it was perfect, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"You are really amazing... really amazing. I feel lucky to have met you." Perhaps she heard something from the comments, Yu Ruohe has been comforting him since he woke up: "Don't feel too burdened. Yueyue's departure is not your fault... My father once told me that the greater the responsibility a person has, the greater the pressure he will face. They see you as the number one player and the savior, but I don't think anyone has to be perfect... You have been looked at by so many people, but you are still a child after all."
She suddenly thought of something and laughed: "Look, just like you said when you first introduced yourself to me - you are an ordinary student. Now, I think you are a very good student...that's all."
Su Mingan looked at her and wanted to say something to her, but——
A young man with a green mantis on his shoulder appeared at the end of the road.
That was the world's top player, an extremely dangerous existence - Lu Shu from Dragon Country.
Yu Ruohe immediately became nervous.
Lu Shu walked quickly in front of the two of them.
“Don’t be nervous.” Lu Shu looked at Su Ming’an seriously: “…Su Ming’an, the number one player. I am attracted by your theories and actions.”
"So what?" Su Mingan said.
"I have decided to follow you. I like people who always have the future in mind. I like you and I think you are worthy of being my light." Lu Shu said, "I have decided to give up the mission of the Supervisor. I don't want to kill the person I want to follow because of a mission."
Yu Ruohe's brain froze for two seconds, and then she realized that what the other party said was not what she had misunderstood.
...It's really just admiration.
"...I'm glad you understand." Su Mingan said as if he was relieved.
Yu Ruohe looked at their riddle conversation with some confusion.
Lu Shu suddenly took out an egg from his backpack: "This is my gift."
