"That thing is not a [meme], it's just a monster contaminated with some [memetic] characteristics. The other party was born in an experiment to create a [memetic creature]. The reason why after such a long time The effect will be so weakened simply because you are starving after not eating for a long time.”
"...Are you starving?"
He didn't expect Shu Ling to give such an answer at all, and Bai Zhi couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
"That's right, that's a terrifying memetic creature that can swallow up all the time in your body with just a slight touch."
For some reason, the expression on Shu Ling's face seemed a little complicated.
"Don't even think about conquering this kind of thing. That kind of thing that has been reduced to a carrier... itself shouldn't exist."
Volume 2 The Miracle of Improbable Probability: Chapter 1417 Chapter 496 Beauty Township is the Tomb of Heroes (4k)
Because of the warning from the book spirit, after much consideration, Bai Zhi chose to stay here.
What the other party said was not wrong. The World Contract could not completely guarantee their safety. After all, the current situation in the Shadow World could only be said to be a failure. If they continued to move forward, they might not be able to hold on. He could I don’t want my figure to continue to shrink.
Now it has shrunk to the point where it is shorter than Qingyi and the others. It is already very embarrassing to be touched on the head by a few lolita from time to time. If it shrinks to the point where they need to be carried away... That kind of picture is too white to stop him. can not imagine.
-The protection from the World Contract of the Shadow World does not exist permanently. It requires the consumption of shadow crystals as a price. He currently does not have that many crystals to consume.
In addition, the situation on their side did not support them to move forward. He became a shota, Yanhuo Fengyue became a lolita, and although Qingyi and the others said they could fight, he could not trust these lolita. Li ran to take risks. After all, in his current situation, it was impossible to summon the ghost gate to shake people.
Actually, regardless of removing those things, the environment here is actually quite good at the moment.
What stands out is the beautiful mountains and clear waters, the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers, and the groups of lolita...
... Although he was troubled by the fact that Qingyi Anna and the others always found excuses to come to Rua.
It was fine in the past, Qingyi Anna and the others just liked to be next to him or pester him to eat marshmallows or something, but now that he has degenerated into a shota size, he has lost his majesty and is often ignored by Anna and the others. They were touched with hands and feet, and from time to time their face would be pinched or kissed...
how to say? From a distance, it looks... quite harmonious
"Tell me in detail, what exactly is going on?"
Walking to Shu Ling (Hitomi), who had been sitting alone next to the Ragdoll cat since the beginning, and who was currently holding his legs and looking at the night sky above his head in ecstasy without knowing what he was thinking, Bai Zhi Then he sat down next to the other party.
Because she had to deal with the memetic phenomenon caused by the memetic creature, she never replaced the Shuling. And for some reason, the Shuling's behavior was much weirder than the previous times.
Isolated, unsociable, often distracted, and don’t know what I’m thinking about…
Usually, Shu Ling appears after Hitomi is asleep. This time, it can be regarded as the longest time she has appeared.
- At the request of the Book Spirit, the World Contract of the Shadow World has been taken back by him, and now it is all up to the Book Spirit to help resist.
"What do you want to know?"
Sensing his arrival, Shu Lingyou turned his head and glanced at him.
"I've already said that those memories appeared in my mind out of thin air. I don't know what happened. Even if you came to ask me specifically, it would be of no use."
"Let's brainstorm. Maybe I can give you an answer to what you're worried about now?"
Sensing the obvious alienation in the other person's words, Bai Zhi curled his lips, rested his head on his hands, and lay back on the ragdoll cat.
"You are so eager to know your original identity, so why don't I? To a certain extent, we are the same kind of people."
He has never given up the idea of exploring the secrets hidden in his body, but it is difficult to obtain corresponding clues.
But to be honest, even if the truth about him is now in front of him, he will not touch it easily until he finds a way to deal with that dark dream and knows the detailed information related to it. .
"… It was an experiment that got out of hand."
After a moment of silence, he turned his head and looked forward, and Shu Ling answered.
"The experiment location is in a laboratory. It is a laboratory located in the endless starry sky. From the window, you can see a field of bright stars."
"A laboratory located in the sea of stars?"
This was the first time he heard the other party talk about such details, and Bai Zhi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"What about the experimenters? Who are those people?"
"…Guardian of the World."
"What?"
Because the voice from the other party's mouth was too soft, Bai Zhi slightly didn't hear it clearly.
"The World Guardians, the personnel who gathered in that laboratory to start that experiment, are all World Guardians from various worlds."
For some reason, Shu Ling's eyes were slightly gloomy.
"The experimental product is a captured [Void Creature], the experimental material is a [Meme], and the content of the experiment is to create a [Memetic Creature] with memetic characteristics."
"Guardian of the world..."
After listening to the other party's words, Bai Zhi reached out and touched his chin, with a thoughtful look on his face.
He is not unfamiliar with the existence of world guardians. Not to mention Xiao Xiaobai, the acting store manager in a certain restaurant, he had come into contact with many world guardians when he was in the Tomb of the World. .
-Most of the evil gods that exist today are former guardians of the world.
However, he never expected that the reason why this Cave Heaven Paradise was banned and destroyed would be related to the guardian of the world...
"By the way, how are you sure?"
As if something suddenly occurred to him, Bai Zhi sat up and asked Shu Ling.
"Why can't the thing that currently exists in this Cave Tianfu just be a simple [meme]?"
"..."
As if touching some sensitive point, Shu Ling remained silent for a long time when faced with his question.
It wasn't until a long time later that she answered.
"...The void creature selected as the carrier was sent to that laboratory by me."
"Did you send it there?"
Although he had made a plan in his mind, when Shu Ling told these things, Bai Zhi was still stunned.
To be honest, he had many speculations about Shu Ling's identity.
…A book spirit born from the [Book of Gospels]
Are you kidding me? A little book spirit can know the things about a top evil god like [Garden of Eden] and still know everything about it
Not only that, in that situation, the other party even took action to prevent Hitomi from falling into the Garden of Eden... This is not something that an ordinary book spirit can do.
After that, the other party helped him curb the deterioration of Qingyi's condition many times. Although a certain pink-haired man could do this, the predecessor of that pink-haired man was a mythical player.
In Bai Zhi's view, Shu Ling is like an all-knowing encyclopedia, knowing everything about everything.
Evil gods, apocalypse... even memes.
—Can ordinary book spirits do things like these
So from the beginning, Bai Zhi had made several guesses about the identity of the other party.
Among those speculations, they include the fallen mythical player, the former guardian of the world, the administrator of the library that was breached by ghost stories... and so on.
And now it seems that the identity of the book spirit...should be the former guardian of the world
"...Guardian of the world? I hope I am too."
As if she guessed what he was thinking, she turned her head and glanced at him. Shu Ling shook her head gently.
"In the memory that suddenly emerged from me, the out-of-control experiment and the complete disappearance of the experimenters were all caused by me."
Holding her knees with both hands, she looked directly at him, the book spirit's voice was terrifyingly calm.
"In other words, I was the mastermind behind the accident. I was in control of the birth and loss of control of the memetic creature."
"Uh... This doesn't mean anything, does it?"
"Really... you still remember that black Rubik's Cube, right? When I first saw that thing, the first desire that emerged in my heart was to devour it, as if devouring it would make me stronger."
Turning his gaze slightly downward, Shu Ling looked at the pure white Rubik's Cube exposed in Bai Zhi's pocket.
"Does your Rubik's Cube contain the power of [Garden of Eden]? When I see it now, my thoughts remain unchanged."
"..."
Bai Zhi stopped talking.
"It's possible to develop a desire to devour such things. It's possible to talk about ghosts and doomsday, but it's absolutely impossible for the guardian of the world."
Withdrawing his gaze, lowering his eyes, Shu Ling spoke calmly.
"Understand? No matter what my true identity is, I will never be on your side..."
"so what?"
Rolling his eyes, Bai Zhi slightly interrupted the other party's words speechlessly.
"Do you want to show that you are dangerous, or do you want to explain something? After being a good person for so long, you suddenly found that you are very likely to be a bad person, and you have been struggling with this for a long time?"
"..."
Shu Ling remained silent.
"I think you just think too much. Why do you think about so many things? So what if you are a sealed evil god? Can this affect or interfere with anything?"
Pouting his lips, Bai Zhi simply took out the pure white Rubik's Cube from his pocket and threw it to her.
"What if you want to eat this stuff? Before, I even wanted to eat evil gods and ancient gods, but do you think this has affected me?"
He had been wondering before, why Shu Ling had become so cold and strange this time, but now it seemed that he finally found the reason.
In Bai Zhi's view, the other party was simply trying to get into trouble.
Never mind whether the other party's true identity is what she thinks. Even if it is, what impact will it have
Putting aside the fact that I have an appetite for weird stuff like that of the ancient gods, Qingyi is a quasi-ghost talk master, and Anna is still a dependent of the doll princess, so what does it matter
And to take a step back, my loyal little brother [Eden] came all the way to offer me an offering...
—Because it’s really unnecessary to hide alone and worry about these things for a long time.
"… idiot."
Quan took what the other party said as a joke, and after staring at the pure white Rubik's Cube in his hand for a while, he snorted softly in his mouth, and Shu Ling threw the thing back again.
"Even if you want to comfort me, there is no need to make up such a lame excuse."
"Tch, forget it if you don't believe it."
Sensing the change in the other person's tone, Bai Zhi rolled his eyes and let the pure white Rubik's Cube roll aside. Bai Zhi lay back lazily again.
"Anyway, now is the time when no one will listen to you if you tell the truth, but others will believe you if you lie... Wait, you..."
"Don't talk. If you want to sleep, just sleep peacefully."
Putting the other party's head on his lap, Shu Ling interrupted his words with a slightly red face.
"Anyway, it's better to lie down here than sleep over there, right?"
Bai Zhi: "..."
Hmm... To be honest, it's really comfortable.
… … … … … … … …
Bai Zhi didn't enjoy the Loli knee pillow for the first time in his life for too long. About ten minutes later, Qing Yi and the others who were busy with dinner and supper came running over.
The scenery here is superb, and the air is fresh and natural.
There was no need for them to do anything. The little rabbits, rabbits, cerebellums, axes, and snakes that Mumu subdued spontaneously acted as food collectors.
In just half an hour, a lot of fruits of various colors were piled up in the open space over there. These rare things in the outside world were piled as high as a hill.
In addition to these, the bodies of some delicious beasts that were killed in previous riots were also moved here.
The mobility of pets like Mumu can be said to be frighteningly high.
But after everything was ready and all they needed was the east wind, Qingyi and Anna looked back and suddenly realized that their home seemed to have been stolen unknowingly...
… Didn’t you say to enlighten the other party? How can you just lie on the other person's lap while you are enlightening
- Several lolita resented this and expressed their incomprehension.
… And then
Then Bai Zhi was forced to take turns enjoying the knee pillows of several lolita... Well, there's actually not much to say about this.
