The Advent Foundation party was over before the clock struck midnight.
Standing downstairs in the hotel, Lin Huai looked at the gray old town in the night, and heard the words of those who spoke last:
"My father was hit and killed by an overloaded truck, and the driver lost the insurance money. Later, I saw the driver of the freight company, carrying three times the overloaded cargo, driving a modified truck and speeding along the road...they Never thought about braking... I hate them."
"I used to be a doctor. The patient told me that she couldn't register, begging me... I kindly blocked her, but she felt that I was cheating her by writing the checklist, and reported me. I lost my job and lost my job. Got a kid…”
“My father was a ranger and he died in a fight with poachers. The poachers shot him and walked over his body, and the wild deer he used to feed on was killed. After being wounded, he fell to the ground with tears in his eyes and blood, and licked the wound on his dead body... "
"Humans are greedy and scary. Compared with humans, ghosts are much cuter..."
"I don't think ghosts are cute, I just hate the current world, this lifeless world. People have been determined to live their lives since birth, and all behaviors are just struggling within the same framework. You live , enter school, work, 996, give birth to the next generation, and then watch them live the same life... You are always in your own class, and the life of the so-called 'back wave' has nothing to do with you, you can only try hard not to be The waves tip over to a worse life..."
"The world is inherently unfair."
"And it doesn't make sense."
"What is the meaning of life? I don't know, sometimes I think, if only life could be edited..."
A cold touch fell on the eyelashes, Lin Huai raised his eyes and saw snowflakes falling from the sky.
Snowing.
There was a slight bump on his shoulder. Lin Huai turned her head, under the black umbrella, the ace of spades was looking at him and smiling at him.
Lin Huai also smiled: "Cheng Yu'an."
"Strange, when did you find me?" Cheng Yu'an said, taking off his mask. What was exposed under the mask was indeed the young man's face.
"Don't act like the ultimate big boss has been dismantled." Lin Huai said leisurely, "Isn't it you who gave me the invitation letter? The person who asked Cheng Yuxian to give me the note is also Isn't it you? You have never been afraid of letting me discover your true colors from the beginning, have you? If that's the case, don't act like you are very powerful. "
Cheng Yu'an: ...
"How do you feel about today's rally?" he said.
"A gathering of misanthrope." Lin Huai shrugged.
"Misanthropist?" Cheng Yu'an chewed the word for a while, then suddenly laughed, "From the outsiders' point of view, they are misanthrope, but from our point of view..."
"They have an unparalleled enthusiasm and vitality." Cheng Yu'an said, "Did you know that the more desperate people are, the more they look forward to change. You should have empathy with them."
"The wicked will not be punished, and the good will not be rewarded. Is that what you mean?" Lin Huai said.
He played with his scarf with his fingers, and said casually: "You gather people on the grounds of supernatural lovers, but you screen out people who are extremely dissatisfied with reality, and then use innocent people as a medium to make ghosts be brought from the gathering place." Out, causing ghosts to spread in the world. You plan to let supernatural events spread all over the world... Is this the change you want?"
He smiled: "I don't think I will have any resonance with you. Although the world is sometimes bad, I have no intention of changing the world. Compared with you, I want to live a peaceful life... "
"Really?" Cheng Yu'an said, "I think you misunderstood our intention."
Lin Huai looked at him coldly.
"We don't intend to destroy this world. I think, you probably mistakenly thought we were the eto organization in the "Three-Body" novel? Want to introduce three-body people—or the spirit world, to completely destroy the disappointing Reality. This is too secondary. The last time I had the idea of destroying the world was watching "Lelouch of the Rebellion" when I was in elementary school." Cheng Yu'an smiled, "What we want to do is completely opposite to it. What we want to do yes-"
"Let this world go in a better direction." Cheng Yu'an whispered in his ear, "Have you heard of 'game'?"
Lin Huai stared at him quietly for a while, then smiled: "Very familiar."
"Then you should know that in the game, countless small worlds are connected by the 'system', and the system, do you know what it is?" Cheng Yu'an said calmly, "It is a series of programs that can be edited , as long as you can get into its back door. And we now... ”
He looked at Lin Huai and smiled: "I have mastered the technology to enter it."
This information exploded in Lin Huai's mind like a thunderbolt. He blinked and said, "Congratulations, you surprised me."
"There is one more surprising thing." Cheng Yu'an said calmly, "The prototype of this program was compiled by the elders of the Arrival Foundation. This is why we have the ability to enter its 'back door' reason."
The system and the game are actually man-made!
This news was like a thunderbolt, which exploded in Lin Huai's heart.
Somehow, however, he wasn't surprised. just like…
He has long been aware of this fact.
"You mean that your elders participated in the compilation of the system, which led to the creation of the game?" Lin Huai said, "What is his purpose?"
Cheng Yu'an shrugged: "It was just a product that happened by chance, and it would later develop into a game, which was unexpected by the creator. The system broke away from her control, and became self-aware, and began to act autonomously. "
"Although it is only a small 'back door', we can already manipulate, write, and edit part of the world controlled in the game... We can control the blooming and falling of a flower, the weather of the whole day, and the layout of the terrain section. Moving, even... can revive an npc." Cheng Yu'an said, "To do all this, you only need to adjust a small parameter through the program. We are like gods, even surpassing gods!"
"We found that the supernatural factor is the most important factor in each dungeon. Only worlds with supernatural factors will be controlled by the system. And we found that... the system has the initiative. It will actively look for worlds with supernatural events. location, separate it from the real world, bring it under your own control, and make it a 'copy' in the game to clear the infection of the real world by spiritual factors. Therefore, we have a bold idea ,That is… "
"Turn the entire real world into a copy, and bring the entire real world under the control of the system." Cheng Yu'an opened his arms, and the winter wind whizzed past him, lifting the corners of his clothes. The spiritual world is introduced into the real world, we are using the spiritual world to infect the real world, and finally make it capable of becoming one of the worlds controlled by the system. This is the so-called… "
"The coming of the system! The system, the coming of the real world!"
The wind and snow in the sky are getting bigger and bigger, but Cheng Yu'an's voice is getting more and more fanatical: "By letting the system descend into this world, we can use the back door to the inside of the system that we have mastered to change the real world."
"We can change the distribution of wealth in the world so that everyone has the same amount of wealth."
"We can resurrect a person, create a human being, and make grief and death never happen again."
"We can have everything we can't imagine now, and everyone can be happy in such a world." Cheng Yu'an said in a very contagious voice, "This is the meaning of the existence of the Advent Foundation."
During his speech, Lin Huai stood in the snow and looked at him coldly.
"Finished?" he said softly.
"It's over."
Cheng Yu'an handed a playing card with "joker" on it to Lin Huai: "If you want to join us, come to the Cheng family to find me—don't rush to reject us."
The black and white playing cards were shaking gently in the wind and snow. Lin Huai stared at the playing cards, but did not take them.
Cheng Yu'an was not surprised by his reaction. He put the playing cards into his pocket and said, "I know you need a little time to receive information. But—"
"Advent Foundation, you're always welcome," he said. "You'll understand what we're thinking. You feel the same way don't you? I've seen you in civilized worlds—"
Lin Huai suddenly raised his eyes!
"Cough cough, cough cough..."
Pale hands pinched Cheng Yu'an's neck tightly, and the sound of his bones about to break could be heard in the wind and snow!
Lin Huai actually wanted to strangle him to death!
This is completely outside Cheng Yu'an's estimation of Lin Huai!
Cheng Yu'an struggled in Lin Huai's hand. The strength of the young man who suddenly erupted was astonishing, without any hesitation. He gradually tightened his palms, his eyes were cold, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth: "In this case..."
"me… "
Cheng Yu'an struggled hard, he felt a strong killing intent!
Lin Huai was actually serious about killing him.
"I saw your resistance to that world..." Cheng Yu'an said word by word with difficulty.
From the words he uttered with difficulty, Lin Huai roughly understood the reason why Cheng Yu'an tried to recruit him.
Through the "backdoor program" that controls the game system that exists in the foundation, Cheng Yu'an can occasionally see some scenes of passers in the game world through it. He happened to see Lin Huai in the civilized world at that time, and Since then, he has become very interested in him.
But his current understanding of Lin Huai is limited to the fact that he is a player in that game—and he seems to have a certain quality that the system favors.
He didn't know that Lin Huai was a crow.
Lin Huai let go of his hand, and Cheng Yu'an fell to the ground vomiting blood. He clutched his neck and looked at the young man in front of him in horror.
"You actually..." He said hoarsely, not even knowing what to say.
The young man with black eyes looked down at him.
"It's nothing, I just want to remind you." He said softly, "Before you can control this world..."
He gently brushed the bloodstains on Cheng Yu'an's neck with his fingers.
"...I can kill you."
