"(Rejected. The probability is less than 100%. With the highest human wisdom, it is still reproducible, and it cannot necessarily be concluded that the player has the authority. But according to the situation of the Dawn Code of the Ninth World, it is either Noel or Su Mingan. Since Noel has been ruled out, it can be concluded that Su Mingan has a high probability of having the authority.)" said the mechanical life.
"(But he never admitted it.)" A female voice came from the twelfth seat.
"(Once admitted, [the rules] are absolute and cheating will come at a price. Therefore, of course he won't admit it.)" said the hoarse voice.
"(Can we explore the source of authority?)" said the mechanical voice.
"(unknown.)"
"(Has his origin been determined?)"
"(The player's memories can only be viewed through the world game. From the memories, he was born into a humble family and is just an ordinary human.)"
"(Humph... We are nothing but trapped beasts in the World Game. Perhaps, this seemingly insignificant human is the one who controls us. Perhaps, the World Game belonged to him from the beginning, but he erased his memory for some purpose or wish.)"
“(Your speculation makes sense, but I don’t think it will work.)”
"(I can also list hundreds of absurd conjectures in an instant, such as he is actually a machine, he is your creator, or he is just an ordinary person. But we need actual evidence, not impurities floating in our minds.)"
"('Thought impurities' is the name for the brain waves of living things, but it is not universal for mechanical life.)"
"(...I didn't talk to you, you piece of shit.)"
Su Mingan watched these life exchanges coldly.
These people thought he couldn't understand and kept talking in encrypted form, but in fact he heard every word clearly.
"Ahem! Everyone, be quiet! Rabbit wants to speak!" Boss Rabbit coughed. The scene suddenly became quiet.
It seems that Boss Rabbit is the one with the highest authority among them.
At this time, Boss Rabbit turned and looked at Su Mingan with a friendly look.
"My dear first player, I still remember what you said - [I have something you particularly want, we can cooperate]." Boss Rabbit stared at Su Mingan with his blood-red eyes: "I want to confirm... the thing you said... refers to your authority...?"
The moment twelve eyes converged on Su Mingan, he truly experienced what it meant to "feel like a thorn in the back".
Dieying's gaze was the most soothing, yet with a barely perceptible coldness, as if he was also tasting Su Mingan's expression.
Boss Rabbit's look was the most playful, but it seemed like superficial playfulness.
The eyes of the Devil of Fun were extremely erratic, as if He didn't care about Su Mingan's answer at all, He only cared about Su Mingan himself. Or maybe, no matter what answer Su Mingan gave, He thought it was very funny.
The fourth, fifth, and twelve other eyes had different emotions. But Su Mingan did not look at anyone, his eyes stayed on the empty space.
Then he opened his lips and said:
"—you long for me."
Su Mingan used affirmative sentences.
He could not sense their hostility, but only their greed and desire. To these beings, his authority was as tempting as gold.
"At the beginning of the game, I thought you had been targeting me because you hated me, feared me, and wanted to get rid of me." His eyes were fearless, and his posture was not like a human facing a higher-dimensional being. Instead, he was like a chess player on a chessboard looking down at the twelve chess pieces.
"But then I suddenly realized - if you really hated me, why did you give me the highest status of a ruler after the end of the Third World? Why did Boss Rabbit favor me again and again, calling me 'dear No. 1 Player', treating me differently, even coming whenever he called? The big glass room at the auction, the personal passage for the No. 1 Player, the intimate words used... was that really a ploy to separate me from the others? Is there even a slight possibility of... 'winning me over'?"
Boss Rabbit narrowed his eyes.
The overlapping image showed an interested expression.
The Fun Demon floated on the platform, staring at Su Mingan without blinking.
The other eyes were different, revealing greed and danger, as if they were predators eyeing delicious food.
At this moment, Su Mingan felt that he was back in the aquarium again.
Sharks, poisonous jellyfish, piranhas... these dangerous creatures were lurking in the glass of the aquarium. He stood outside the glass, staring at them through the glass that was about to break.
If his words were wrong, if the decibels were a little louder—the glass would shatter, and these dangerous creatures would devour him in an instant.
To them, he is an ally who can be won over, a dangerous person who may be superior to them, a holder of authority with a mysterious background, a feast for the eyes... but definitely not the player himself.
He and them were already on an equal footing, talking to each other. If he died, they would gain nothing—his life was what they feared most.
It flashed by at his fingertips, and although it was a sharp weapon against his own body - it was like a sharp knife against their necks.
"...Are you scared?" He smiled.
At this moment, they seemed to be horrified by his action - suicide.
Whether he replayed his memories after committing suicide or his authority was not a death replay, his authority disappeared after committing suicide, which was not what they wanted to see.
Even Boss Rabbit couldn't tell whether Su Ming'an was just playing an empty city trick, because in fact he had no power at all.
