"We've arrived at the final stop." The driver stopped the bus and let the passengers get off.
"No, Master, we haven't reached the station yet." A passenger couldn't help but say, "We still have a few miles to go."
"Sorry, the car is out of battery." The driver replied calmly, "Get off quickly."
"Your car still has power..."
"Forget it, forget it. Maybe the driver has something urgent to do."
"Let's go first."
The majority of the passengers were magnanimous people. They didn't say anything and quickly got off the bus.
When the last passenger got off the bus, it seemed as if it was equipped with an acceleration motor and it sped away so fast that it disappeared.
“… I want to file a complaint.”
"Forget it. It's not easy for them to work. We can still get there by just taking a walk."
…
"You're here." The restaurant owner has closed all the doors in the restaurant. In front of his restaurant, there are several other people with different postures.
Everyone exudes the same message.
They all have the flavor of the top NPCs in the dungeon.
"Why did something go wrong all of a sudden?" The bus driver, also known as the conductor, turned pale. "Since I came to this instance, everything has been smooth sailing."
Those former top seven players of Pandora stayed in this dungeon well and motionlessly, and have completely turned into the appearance of mountains and seas.
If he didn't tell them, even the players who came to this ultimate copy wouldn't know.
"Someone must have found a clue to pass the level in the original instance, and the opportunity to destroy this world has arrived, so they woke up." The oldest NPC said, "I won't stop them."
"Why didn't they stop us?" The conductor was stunned. "They are all fighting machines without self-awareness. Pandora's customer service said that if they wake up, we will easily become their targets!"
Isn't their duty in this copy to protect them
This can be regarded as the last layer of protection Pandora gives to the players in this ultimate copy.
"If they try to stop it, this world can still exist." The oldest NPC looked at the train conductor and said, "You have just become a human, you can't understand the meaning of this world to us. Once this world is destroyed, we can only go back to the original copy world and continue our previous life?"
Would anyone be willing
The conductor's words were suddenly blocked.
Want to go back to the past
Go back to the train conductor who can never reach the destination, and watch the players getting on and off the train again and again and then being killed
The conductor suddenly realized that the life he once took for granted seemed very far away from him.
"Why should we worry about the lives of those players?" Another NPC also agreed with the idea of protecting this world. "When they were clearing dungeons and defeating or killing us time and time again, did they ever consider our lives?"
Now that the positions have been reversed, they naturally don't have to worry about the lives of the players.
Anyway, players can continue from generation to generation.
They just need to quietly live as a real "person" in this world and enjoy the life that a person should have.
We are all selfish.
"... What will happen after they wake up?" The conductor lit a cigarette for himself and gave up the idea of informing Cheng Yuxue and the others.
Not stepping on it was already the greatest kindness he could show.
After all, they and the players are always two different types of people.
What the train conductor didn’t expect was that Cheng Yuxue and Ning Buwen actually found a way to pass this copy in just these few years
He thought it would take at least several decades.
That's right.
The two of them have always been the unexpected type.
It's no surprise that they were able to find clues now.
"Of course, we will eliminate those who found the clues." The oldest NPC replied calmly, "Pandora was originally caused by the players, so the ones who finally went out to deal with them were naturally the former players. If you are interested, just follow me to deal with those players. If you don't want to do it, just continue with your life."
"No one has ever been able to clear the dungeon and destroy this world before, and naturally no one will be able to do so again in the future."
————————————
When Ning Buwen arrived, he saw Cheng Yuxue fainted on the ground.
"Cheng Yuxue!"
Ning Buwen's mind went blank and he subconsciously reached out to touch it.
Then, before he could get any closer, several stones floated directly in front of Ning Buwen.
"If you take another step forward, don't blame me for being rude." The stone beauty appeared from the side, "Who are you?"
"I'm Ning Bu Wen." When Ning Bu Wen saw this strange man, he had already guessed his identity in his heart, "Are you a second-generation player? I'm Cheng Yuxue's lover."
"So the lover he was talking about is you." Stone Beauty's attitude softened a little, "As long as you don't get close, I won't hurt you."
"What happened to him? Why do I feel like he's not breathing at all?" Ning Bu Wen suppressed the anger in his heart and tried to calm himself down.
"He came to ask me for clues about the ultimate copy, so I teleported him back to the original ultimate copy. That stone is the only one I have, and it will be gone if I give it to him. If he's lucky, maybe he can come back." The stone beauty said irresponsibly with an expressionless face, "If he has died in the original copy, then you can take his body away."
"What does the original copy look like?" Ning Buwen knew that he couldn't confront this person directly now, he still needed to get more clues.
“I don’t remember.”
"How long will it take for him to wake up?"
"have no idea."
"Then, what are the chances of survival?" Ning Buwen's voice already had a hint of a roar, "Don't tell me you don't even know this!"
"When we, the second-generation players, entered the original ultimate dungeon together, only seven of us survived." Stone Beauty answered this time, "It's not because the seven of us are strong, but because Pandora needs seven second-generation players to guard different ultimate dungeons. If Pandora didn't need them, maybe all of us would have been wiped out."
In other words, there is basically no way to survive if you go there
"Get out of the way!" Ning Bu Wen took a deep breath.
"His ability is immortality." The Stone Beauty continued, "Because his ability is very special, I will give him this one and only chance to use it. Now, his soul has gone to the original ultimate copy, and his body is the only way to return. I can't guarantee that if your hand touches his body, it will not damage his soul."
Ning Buwen stopped walking.
He looked at the stone beauty, then took out his dice.
100 points.
What Stone Beauty said is true!
"Your ability is also very interesting." The stone beauty became interested and instantly moved in front of Ning Buwen, "But I don't recommend you to divine the clues of the original copy. Its backlash is enough to kill you directly."
"I have also divined clues in this instance." Ning Buwen was not easily fooled. "What clues do you mean?"
"Everything." The Stone Beauty replied softly, "The copy you are in now is a world that has been transformed by the blood and bodies of more than a dozen generations of players. You can regard it as a protection, or as an obstacle. As a player, you should have discovered that the timeline of this copy is always moving forward, while the timeline of the copies you have experienced before has always stopped there. Unless a special accident occurs, the timeline will not move forward. But in the ultimate world, whether you open it or not, their time is moving forward."
The previous dozen or so generations of players, especially those in Pandora's top seven, will become part of this world, and what they have done will also change the course of this world, which even Pandora cannot control.
In this way, the impact they left behind was to greatly weaken the world's malice towards players, but it also hid clues to leaving this world.
"According to what you said, if Cheng Yuxue fails to find the clue, players who come to this dungeon world again in the future will not be able to find the clue and pass the level?" Ning Bu Wen asked after a moment of silence.
"Pandora doesn't actually encourage players to clear the level early." The Stone Beauty nodded and said nonchalantly, "It gives those of us who didn't have the chance to be born a new life. There are countless generations of humans after us who can continue to break through different dungeons. As long as time goes by, one day all the sins on the earth will be redeemed. In this way, Pandora will naturally disappear. For the entire earth, or the entire universe, thousands or tens of thousands of years are just a drop in the ocean, nothing at all."
"But not for us!" Ning Buyen interrupted him, "I want to see the real Earth and the real Sun in my lifetime. I don't have to live in a safety barrier, and I can grow edible vegetables and fruits in the soil at home. I want to walk hand in hand with my lover under the starry sky."
"Why should we atone for the sins of our ancestors?"
"We can't be born because of the probability, but Pandora didn't even ask us if we want to be born!"
Ning Buwen is already considered one of the top people living in this doomsday world, but besides him, there are so many ordinary people and ordinary players struggling in the dungeon.
"Just because Pandora can create life endlessly, does that mean every life is not precious? Just because Cheng Yuxue can't die, does that mean it's natural for him to go through those checkpoints where there's a 100 percent chance of survival? If your answer is yes, then I have only one answer - screw that!"
Ning Buwen just threw out all the thoughts in his mind.
He had wanted to say these words for a long time.
Whether it's Pandora or the first or second generation players, they are all so terribly self-centered.
They never think about the players behind them who are unaware of the truth, who are kept in the dark and know nothing, how much sacrifice they have to make and how many lives they have lost in order to get to where they are now
Now you tell me, Pandora actually doesn’t encourage people to challenge the ultimate dungeon
The best way is for you to fill it with human lives, generation after generation, until it is filled up.
It's ridiculous!
The first generation of players are obsessed with infighting, while the second generation of players are obsessed with hatred towards the first generation of players.
And now, the only one they can count on is Cheng Yuxue, who has grown up from the third generation and walked step by step to the present, but can't even remember his own memories clearly
Isn't this funny
The stone beauty was silent.
He couldn't quite understand people like Ning Buwen, nor did he understand why this seemingly smart player suddenly exploded
The stone beauty has lived too long.
He couldn't understand why Ning Buwen was angry, but he knew that this player might be different from the players he had seen before.
And the undead player lying on the ground now is also different from the players of their generation.
The current eighteenth generation of players are very different from their generation.
"I won't touch him, just let me go." Ning Buwen saw the confused look on the Stone Beauty's face and knew that she didn't understand what he said at all.
It is simply impossible to put yourself in other people's shoes when applying the four words "put yourself in other people's shoes" to these first and second generation players.
"You..." Stone Beauty was about to agree, but suddenly turned her head and looked at the other side, "Did you bring anyone else with you?"
"No." Ning Buwen was stunned for a moment, "I didn't bring anyone else here. I do have two companions waiting at the other end."
Speak of the devil; he will appear.
Mo Yuqiong and Qi Ming suddenly arrived here on a magic carpet and shouted, "Get out of here!"
What
"There are more than a dozen people coming from behind." Stone Beauty reached out and pulled Mo Yuqiong and Qi Ming over. "Each of them is very strong."
Mo Yuqiong and Qi Ming rolled on the ground twice and quickly got up.
"What's going on?" Ning Bu Wen hurried forward and found that they looked even more embarrassed than when he arrived.
How long has it been? What happened
Could it be that, apart from the second-generation players, there is someone else in this world who can hurt them like this
"They are the former top seven Pandoras." Mo Yuqiong tightly grasped Ning Buwen's hand, "Among those people, I saw the second Pandora of my generation!"
They are alive.
