Chapter 217 Boyan
Chapter 217
Xie Cheng is currently in a state of utter chaos. He is the only one still on Dongcheng Island, and people on the island, people outside, and people waiting to land on the island are all sending him messages to inquire about his situation.
But he was still thinking about what Ji Wei had told him. Thinking about the world that Seventh Sister had experienced, he felt a little scared. If he were controlled and turned into a living dead, he really wished he could die immediately.
Since Sister Seven built the island, the number of islands has increased, and the number of people visiting the islands has also increased. On the land, there are law spirits supervising and patrol robots patrolling day and night.
The public security is now excellent, and people's lives are gradually becoming more stable. He began to feel that they should now rest and recuperate, and that everyone should develop technology to make people's lives better.
He always felt that Ji Wei and the others' concerns were unfounded.
But today, Ji Wei told him about the two systems and the game world, and then Seventh Sister asked him about who they should deal with if they developed their power.
Yes, who is she going to fight? In this world, who can beat Seventh Sister? This is no longer the world of the past. Individual strength surpasses all the technology of the past.
Of course, nuclear bombs are still a threat, but even if Seven Sister can't withstand them, she can escape. So, who has always been his enemy?
Thinking about what was affecting his thoughts, Xie Cheng felt terrible. Although he was rather stubborn, there were people smarter than him out there. If he still didn't listen to advice, he would be courting death.
Remembering what Ji Wei said, the most important thing now is to improve his strength and find a way to escape. He sighed and looked at the thriving island.
He thought that as long as everyone was doing well, even if they occasionally went on missions, it wouldn't affect their lives, since most people were just participating in a game where they wouldn't die.
But he didn't expect such serious consequences. If everyone becomes immersed in the illusion of a happy life and gives up on cultivating themselves, then his guidance is also an important factor.
Xie Cheng stared blankly at the sea, his eyes filled with pain and self-mockery. Yes, they were facing everything brought about by the system, and it was clear that nothing was over yet.
He only wanted everyone to live a comfortable life and couldn't wait to let everyone return to the orderly life they used to have.
But he overlooked the fact that society is not as stable as it used to be. He raised his hand to cover his eyes, feeling very frustrated. How could he ignore these things!
From that day on, Dongcheng Island changed. Every day, everyone in the square practiced their own methods. People's questions went unanswered, but they all saw the changes on the island.
Various speculations abound, but regardless of the speculations, the improvement of strength has become a matter of great concern to people.
Xie Cheng stopped looking into the distance; he couldn't even see himself clearly, so how could he see what was in the distance?
Since I've been blindfolded, I might as well listen to the advice.
Xie Cheng stopped paying attention to outside affairs and left all the trivial matters to the robots and the Codex Spirits, since they were inherently very fair.
When Seventh Sister put them in charge of managing the island, she said that they only needed to supervise and didn't need to pay much attention to it, as long as no major trouble occurred.
Ji Wei and A Tong only handle matters when Seventh Sister has something to do; otherwise, they only appear when it is beneficial to her cultivation.
He was the only one who took everything upon himself, believing it was all for the sake of making everyone's lives better, and he was busy on the island every day.
Ji Wei had reminded him many times, but he hadn't listened to advice. He smiled to himself, wondering how he had become so self-centered and stubborn.
The system's influence may be real, but it's also true that his increased strength made him arrogant and self-willed.
He has only himself to blame for his current predicament, but it's not too late. He has to find a way out.
...
Since arriving at the floating island, Lin Xia's heart has been at peace. She spends her days cultivating, wandering in her subconscious sea, and repairing the formations.
The subconscious mind is very interesting. Lin Xia was busy before and hadn't explored it carefully. Now that she has time, she has discovered that there are many important records inside.
Those with detailed records are all major events and figures that could influence the course of human civilization.
This is not about time, it's just a record, but what Lin Xia finds strange is that there is no record of any extraordinary power in it.
A thought suddenly popped into Lin Xia's mind... perhaps this collective subconscious sea wasn't as important as she thought.
Or rather, it's not that important to truly transcendent beings.
But for human civilization as a whole, it is extremely important, without a doubt, and it is also extremely important to her now.
She stopped thinking about that fleeting thought; it was still very, very far away from her.
Because of A-Tong, the floating island is covered with lush vegetation and full of life. Where Ji Wei is, the water vapor is rippling. She has placed her residence in the center of the lake, creating a misty atmosphere that makes the entire lake seem like a fairyland.
Lazy Cat is always covered in dust and dirt, and he's become somewhat obsessed with his research.
...
Ji Wei stepped onto the condensed water-filled steps and walked over Lazy Cat's head. Lazy Cat opened its eyes wide, thinking "Damn it!" It was so annoyed by Ji Wei's smug face!
"I want Seventh Sister to set up a formation for me!" Lazy Cat said, his eyes gleaming with envy.
Ji Wei's eyebrows danced with smugness as she ran over quickly.
"Seventh Sister, Boyan sent me a message." Ji Wei had asked Lin Yi beforehand and came over specifically while Lin Xia was resting.
"What news?" Lin Xia still remembered him; he was... a very pragmatic person, an experimental fanatic, and a morally ambiguous individual.
"He said he wanted to go to the island, the floating island."
"What's the reason?"
Ji Wei stroked his chin, finding it quite interesting: "He said that as someone valued by the ocean system, he felt he was very valuable and had very valuable information."
Ji Wei laughed: "He said he wants to abandon darkness and embrace the light, and wants to talk to you. Seventh Sister, do you want to talk to him?"
Lin Xia nodded: "Let him come."
Ji Wei nodded, and soon brought Boyan over. Lin Xia met him in an open space on the island.
Lin Xia sat on the chair that Lin Yi had brought over, gesturing for the two of them to sit down, and looked at Boyan: "Speak."
Bo Yan cleared his throat: "The ocean system is the source of the pollution." Seeing that Lin Xia didn't seem surprised, he continued: "It seems that he can't directly attack the people of our world, so he can only make people choose to be polluted by issuing missions."
"So, you deliberately allowed yourself to be contaminated, and you even want to spread the contamination throughout the world?" Ji Wei immediately asked.
Bo Yan touched his nose: "Yes, I'm just curious about what kind of force causes that pollution."
"What kind of power is it?" Ji Wei continued to ask.
"I haven't fully understood it yet, but I've been suppressed. However, I've discovered that pollution absorbs certain energies through the polluted people, and that more energy is absorbed during sleep than when a person is awake."
