"President? Zhang Daowu?"
"Yes." When the name was mentioned, Guan Yingying finally showed a little smile on her face, "Fortunately, there is the president."
They knew nothing at the time and entered the national copy of "Don't Answer" like other players.
But as soon as we entered, we found something wrong.
There are no system prompts.
But at that time, the players didn’t realize that they didn’t actually enter the national copy.
Because what appeared before their eyes was truly a [copy].
However, in that [copy], they were no longer players, but NPCs, and had lost their memories of being players of "Don't Answer" - just like Guan Yingying before.
Guan Yingying still remembers that it was a doomsday copy that looked very simple.
The one hundred players of "Don't Answer" became NPCs of the human base after the apocalypse, and possessed complete memories of being NPCs.
In their memories, they were born and raised in that small world. When the end of the world came, they were extremely lucky and possessed supernatural powers that ordinary people could not possess, thus becoming the saviors of the world.
One hundred players were scattered across nine human bases. They fought against mutated animals and plants and contributed their own strength to the survival of mankind.
Just then, something extraordinary happened.
A group of new people with special abilities suddenly appeared in the base. They appeared out of nowhere and each of them was very powerful. What was even more strange was that other people had no reaction to their appearance. They all thought that these people were already in the base.
Smart people like Zhang Daowu and Guan Yingying quickly discovered the unusualness of this world. They pretended to be like other NPCs, not feeling strange about the appearance of these people, and then slowly approached them.
Those people didn't seem to care much about them. Although they were careful with their words, they still exchanged things in private that normal people wouldn't.
For example, games, players, NPCs, level 2 copies...
Zhang Daowu soon realized that the world they lived in might be different from what they imagined. Maybe they were NPCs - no, according to these "players", they were not ordinary NPCs. After all, they noticed something was wrong.
Soon, almost instinctively, the one hundred players who gradually discovered something was wrong quickly gathered around Zhang Daowu.
They were in the dark, while those "players" were in the light. Zhang Daowu quickly figured out their purpose.
—These people are here to steal the energy crystal core of the mutated level 5 plant, the Dandelion King.
Although no one knew why they were so concerned about this mutant plant, under the guidance of Zhang Daowu, the players eventually killed all these "players" with ulterior motives and obtained the energy crystal core of the Dandelion King.
When he got the crystal core, Zhang Daowu was stunned.
[Props: Dandelion seeds (unidentified)]
Zhang Daowu had no idea what this thing was or what it was used for.
But at that time, the human base could no longer withstand the invasion of mutated animals and plants.
So Zhang Daowu used this prop.
Then, a "ding" sound came from his mind.
[Ding—Congratulations to players [Zhang Daowu], [Guan Yingying], [Qian Hu], and [Lu Congshan] for completing the dungeon [Floating Dandelions]. ]
[Ding—The player's status is abnormal and is being repaired. ]
[Ding—Repair successful.]
The memories of Zhang Daowu and others were restored.
Only a few of them had their memories restored.
Zhang Daowu quickly understood.
"Ranked skills... Only four of us have ranked skills."
The other players know nothing about it and they still feel like they are the natives of that world.
The world that was about to be destroyed was revived because of the [Dandelion Seeds]. After the seeds of this horrible mutant plant were used, they actually spread out and grew into an endless sea of dandelions.
The seemingly harmless sea of dandelions actually has considerable destructive power. It can surround an entire human base and form a dandelion protective barrier.
These seeds take three days to grow, and can only grow on the ground. Once planted, they cannot be moved. They seem useless, and if the players get them, they are of no use.
But for the world, it is tantamount to giving mankind a new hope.
Zhang Daowu looked at the smiling faces of those players who had not recovered their memories. After a moment of silence, he discussed with the other three and decided to keep the matter secret.
They were able to summon a system panel - but it was different from the players' panels. Their panels looked very outdated, with "Trial version of Three Thousand Worlds" written in the corner.
There are very few functions and they are all grayed out.
Zhang Daowu guessed that they were most likely entering a new game.
Everyone was very worried about the other Ronghua players who were still in "Don't Answer". After all, everyone disappeared so suddenly, and those friends must be very anxious.
But at the same time, the partners in this new game... More than 30 of the original 100 "Don't Answer" players are members of Ronghua.
Everyone was originally going to enter a level 5 dungeon with an extremely low clearance rate. This is also Ronghua’s tradition. During the national dungeon, when other players are still trying hard to enter some dungeons with high clearance rates, Ronghua players will deliberately choose dungeons that no one has cleared, and use the special status of being able to open live broadcasts during the national dungeon to convey the situation of these dungeons that no one has cleared as much as possible.
Everyone already has experience on how to enter a dungeon that no one has cleared. With some bad luck charms or unlucky magic water, there is a high possibility that you will enter a death dungeon.
But no one expected that this time they did not enter the national copy, but entered a new game instead.
Zhang Daowu was smart and understood it quickly.
"We have most likely entered the [Reincarnation Training]."
He dared to say this not because he understood the game, but because he understood Ji Chaoyang.
Ji Chaoyang sometimes reveals some information unconsciously, for example: ranking skills are not ordinary player skills, and this kind of skill is not something that "Don't Answer" originally possesses.
Those ranked skills are definitely not the work of "Don't Answer", they are the key to unlocking "Three Thousand Worlds".
Ranked Skills… What does it represent
Everything seemed to be shrouded in fog.
Zhang Daowu and the other three decided to survive in this world first.
They don’t know how to get back to "Don't Answer" now, but the people around them are also partners. At this critical moment for the survival of the world, of course they have to stand with their friends.
Even though this seems like an illusion, Zhang Daowu hopes that his friends can find happiness in the illusion.
When they thought everything was fine and the dandelion seeds would bring humanity the last chance of life... a car appeared above the small world.
It was a car so huge that just one of its wheels could crush the world.
It was completely black, with black data streams constantly surrounding the body of the car. The front of the car was open like the mouth of a giant beast, revealing the car compartment inside that was like a black hole.
[Beep! Warning! [Devourer] has appeared, and has applied to connect to the main system for the player!]
[Beep—Warning! Warning! The version is too low to connect to the main system of "Three Thousand Worlds"! Players please pay attention: Is the [Devourer] in the [Unregistered] state? If it is in the [Unregistered] state, please help the small world No. 9076501 resist the [Devourer]! ! ]
[Ding—Players please abide by the player agreement! Saving the small world is the primary goal! ! ! Thank you for your help! The system will also provide you with maximum security protection! ]
Zhang Daowu and the other three had no idea what it was, but two strange-looking figures suddenly appeared on the car.
"Is that the player of Three Thousand Worlds?" Qian Hu looked up, and soon he looked at Zhang Daowu, "President, Three Thousand Worlds seems to be a game with the goal of saving small worlds. The players should all be good people. I'll go and communicate with them!"
Before Zhang Daowu could stop him, Qian Hu had already activated his ranking skill.
"do not go!"
But Qian Hu rushed forward without hesitation.
It’s not that he is stupid. He really thinks, as he said, that the players of “Three Thousand Worlds” are good people.
Even if the purpose of this game is to save thousands of small worlds, the player group is huge and it is inevitable that there will be bad people among the good ones.
When the car appeared so high up, everyone sensed that something was wrong.
If they were here to help the players of this small world, they showed up too late. Moreover, their attitude didn't seem like they wanted to help the small world at all.
Qian Hu knew that if he rushed forward, there was a high chance that he would die.
But he knew better that if he didn't rush forward to test it out and provide experience to the president and others, based on Zhang Daowu's usual style of doing things, he would definitely take the lead himself.
But this car and these two players were obviously not something they could stop.
The terrifying power and pressure that was vaguely revealed was no longer within the realm of human beings.
Beneath the heart of a tiger lies a fiery and delicate heart.
When Qian Hu rushed to the front of the car, he was about to speak, but the two "players" just glanced at him indifferently, as if they were looking at floating garbage, and had no intention of listening to him at all.
One of them pressed a button nearby.
[Devourer] The front of the train turned towards Qian Hu and swallowed him in one gulp.
Qian Hu let out a final roar and used all his skills regardless of the consequences, but to no avail.
He was like a tiny flame, instantly swallowed up by the waves that covered the sky.
Before Qian Hu was completely swallowed, he heard the two "players" talking.
"Wasn't this little world at 99% collapse? How come it has regressed to 96?"
"You just arrived and you don't know. If some small worlds suddenly have powerful guardians, the degree of collapse may decrease... But it doesn't matter. As long as the degree of collapse is above 95, the Devourer can devour it. Don't worry!"
"Oh, so we have to keep monitoring the collapse levels of these small worlds, to prevent their collapse levels from rising to 95!"
"Hurry up and work. We'll have to go to the [garbage dump] to take out the trash after we're done."
"[Garbage dump]? But the data I loaded here shows that it is [Dragon Burial Ground]..."
"That's official information. We privately call it the garbage dump. Don't you think it's very descriptive?"
“Haha, indeed!”
[Devourer] turned its huge head towards the small world.
Zhang Daowu watched helplessly as the giant beast, which was no longer capable of being stopped by humans, opened its mouth.
[Beep—The player is detected to be in danger, all functions are enabled! ! The item skill transfer function is enabled! ! Please pay attention to your personal safety! ! ]
[Ding—The player's information was not found in the database, and some functions are limited! We are matching similarities for you to find a better solution! ]
Before the giant beast devoured the entire small world, Zhang Daowu quickly chose to transfer all his props and other players' props.
At this moment, some familiar names finally appeared in his empty friend list. They were members of Ronghua, friends he met on "Don't Answer".
When Zhang Daowu had transferred all the props of other players, he saw an unexpected name.
[system]
When Zhang Daowu clicked, some information about the [System] popped up automatically.
(Administrator 001 is not logged in, the system cannot be enabled)
(System ID Update)
(Updated to: Zhang Daoan (Original Location))
