Audiences:"… … "

Wait, what happened? !

From the rock and soil loosening, the two people hovering in the air to falling off the cliff, the whole process is so fast that it is difficult for the retina to capture it. Countless people straightened up from their seats in astonishment.

That doesn't look like the picture that should be in game modeling.

——The rosy and deep light sprinkles from the sky, like the last moment before sunset. The thick blue cold pool is like a mirror, and the boy's eyelashes are closed, as if some unknown life was born fluttering on his lips. The people who fell from mid-air are like dust and ants, but they are much more eternal than that.

It's like kissing each other, and it's like a continuation of the silent war.

Then... boom!

The splash of water was huge, and the two of them sank into the deep underground pool. After the camera went black for a short time, they quickly followed.

"..."

Wen Xingze felt that this kiss seemed long overdue.

Perhaps as early as the real barren star, during many life-and-death confrontations, when Wen Xingze was dying, and the monarch covered with black silk was walking forward step by step; at the end of the long and bitter battle, the officer retracted the sword , When I didn’t say that farewell for a long time... Or earlier, on the day when the blind officer recovered, I sat in the afternoon sun and smiled at him very unskilledly and apologetically.

He is not good at words, so many sentences that are equivalent to confession, Wen Xingze did not understand.

And Chi Yanyuan loved him earlier and more than Wen Xingze thought.

For a few moments while floating in the icy-cold pool without oxygen, Wen Xingze recalled the past for no reason.

Obviously it happened in the game, but it seems to have been experienced in real life, and every detail is extremely deep.

— On the day when the special mission was completely over, the starry sky did not clear up, and there was still no wind and no moon. In the cave, the leader of the snow-eyed crocodile was finally beheaded by the two together, and their condition was also very bad.

Wen Xingze was covered in blood and had no strength to move at all, while the blind officer sat beside him, bandaging the wound without saying a word. Bind up Wen Xingze's first, then his own.

When everything is over, the citizens of the Muse Empire have been waiting anxiously outside the barren star barrier.

Few people used bandages in this day and age, and the blind officer bandaged it very slowly, as if he wanted to spend his whole life here.

Wen Xingze was so sleepy that he hung on the officer's body, and felt the officer stiffen in a daze. After a long time, he heard a vague and cautious question: "Can you...?"

Wen Xingze: "What?"

The other party was silent for a while, and his tone was even lower, as if he was worried about being rejected, he repeated again: "Can I give you a hug?"

Wen Xingze said, "No."

The officer was stunned for a moment, but Wen Xingze opened his hands with a smile in the next moment, so the officer knew that he had been teased by him again. Wen Xingze likes to play tricks on serious people.

In order to make sure it wasn't a dream, he stood on the spot and thought for a while before reaching out and hugging Wen Xingze.

One, two, three, a total of three seconds.

As soon as the time was up, he immediately withdrew his hand and quickly retreated a polite distance.

"thanks."

Wen Xingze sometimes feels that they are already very familiar, but sometimes it feels as if they have never seen each other day and night, and have never become closer than strangers. When the young monarch of Utopia gets married in the future, he may not be willing Send him an invitation.

Wen Xingze felt that this person was really strange.

The officer handed a small bag to Wen Xingze, stopped talking to him, and carried him to the border of Desolate Star. Muse parent.

Later, Wen Xingze sat on the starship and looked through the bag that Chi Yan gave him at the end. Inside were the last supplies they had left over the past few months: two energy bars, a bullet, nutrient solution, picked up in the deserted star. To oddly shaped shells, and...a ring.

It's like—he wanted to give Wen Xingze a heart, but he was worried that it was too cheap, so he could only mix it with other things, treat it as a worthless gift, and hand it over to him carefully.

This exchange lasted for many, many years.

And Wen Xingze took it for granted that the other party left it by mistake, so he could only temporarily save the ring after publishing notices of missing objects many times to no avail.

He'd never tried it on, and certainly wouldn't have known, that it was the perfect size for his ring finger.

At the moment Wen Xingze fell into the cold pool, probably due to lack of oxygen, he passed out for a short time, and remembered things from a long time ago.

He was awakened by the damp and cool air at the tip of his nose.

—The cold pool of the abyss is very deep, and it is connected to the entire ocean of this abandoned planet.

Thousands of years ago, it was a city of human beings. It recorded the rise and fall, honor and disgrace of an ancient ethnic group. The thousand-year-old ruins have changed over time, and finally collapsed into a pool of everything.

The huge impact at the moment of falling into the water made Wen Xingze stunned. He felt as if he was in a coma, and in his dream he saw a scene that he thought he had forgotten long ago.

When he opened his eyes again, Wen Xingze suddenly had a sense of confusion that time had turned a corner and overlapped again—Chi Yan carried him on his back, and walked slowly along the deep seabed corridor.

Chi Yan's body temperature has always been very low, but it is very reassuring, and he really wants to just rely on him and continue to sleep.

"Are you awake?" Chi Yan asked.

Wen Xingze always felt something strange: "... um."

He looks aside.

A transparent film wraps this abandoned city, and outside is the deep sea. Not to mention fish, there is not even a sign of biological activity.

Bubbles swept across the blue ocean.

At this depth, the water pressure is extremely high, and the light is very dim. Atlantis, where the mermaids live and is illuminated by lantern fish and shark beads, is a sea that is almost dead.

He and Chi Yan had never been to the bottom of this deep pool when they were doing missions, but they knew from the detection equipment that this place was connected to the ocean, and that there was also a former city dormant here.

"Are you still in the championship game?" Wen Xingze thought about it carefully, "Is this also game modeling?"

If the modeling of a mere game competition is so realistic, it will cost too much!

Utopia is so rich? !

Wen Xingze thought sourly, it's not that Muse can't do this, it's just that they disdain, and they are a country known for advocating peace...

But Chi Yan's answer surprised people: "No."

"This is Frontier Desolate Star E15." He said, "The modeling of the killing show itself is based on the space transition projection, and there is an interface with the real world."

To put it simply, every scene of the killing show is connected with the real location in reality, which is a more advanced projection technology.

It's just that the entry conditions of this 'interface' are extremely harsh, and the probability of risk is extremely low. This is also the result of a joint agreement between the players and the official, because only in this way can the most authentic combat experience be obtained-Utopia is a country that advocates force and is more or less crazy. This sentence is not false at all.

This is the only time that an accident has happened in the killing show for so many years.

But maybe it's because both of them have extremely strong mental powers, plus the impact on simulation modeling when they fall into the water, and some other factors... this interface was opened by accident, and the transition was activated program.

In this way, from the center of the bustling Utopia Carlier Star, he came to the deserted and abandoned planet on the border, the deep seabed.

As for the miniature follow-up camera of the Killing Show, I don't know if he followed it. Wen Xingze personally feels that he didn't.

"I turned on the only intact oxygen device in this city," Chi Yan narrated the facts calmly, "There is not much oxygen left, there is still 0.05%."

This abandoned planet once gave birth to some kind of prosperous and splendid civilization. People who live in the city may also consider the possible situation when the end comes. There are oxygen and pressure balance devices in the city—similar to using a fully transparent The hood 'covers' the city.

After all, after so many years, it is good to have some oxygen left.

0.05% oxygen is about enough for two adults to live for half an hour.

Wen Xingze: "..."

Isn't this the end of the calf

Chi Yan: "Ask."

Wen Xingze's little head was filled with big question marks, thousands of thoughts came to his mind, and finally he picked out the most concerned thing and asked: "Am I the champion of the uncrowned competition?" version around

Chi Yan: "..."

There was a smile in Chi Yan's eyes.

"Of course it's you."

He said.

"Okay." Wen Xingze heaved a sigh of relief, then thought about it carefully, and then asked the second most concerned question, "Is that ring from before given to me?...Mr. Fiance?"

Chi Yan didn't speak.

Wen Xingze: "?"

Wen Xingze was puzzled for a moment, then reached out to touch the base of Chi Yan's ear - the temperature had risen a bit, and Wen Xingze couldn't help but leaned over to kiss it - so it started to feel hot now.

This is really a strange person, Wen Xingze thought again, when he let go in front of the cliff, he was so decisive and easy to handle, but he easily felt embarrassed.

"-Arrived."

Chi Yan suddenly stopped.

At the end of this underwater corridor, there is actually a... cemetery.

Wen Xingze looked at the scene in front of him and was suddenly speechless.

There is not any light source from the outside here, only fireflies, which will be attracted by blood and corpses, entwined in the deep soil. And from their feet to the end of the distant line of sight, there are tens of thousands of tombstones, high and low.

Unknown Monument.

The emptiness, the depth of the silence, and the loneliness can be suffocating.

"..."

I don't know how many years these unnamed monuments have stood here, but it seems that someone has been here, and there are snow-white bouquets in front of each monument—because of the age, some have decayed, and some have not.

Wen Xingze suddenly realized something.

"Can I take a look?" Wen Xingze asked Chi Yan, and after getting an affirmative answer, he hurried down and looked from the nearest tombstone.

He lightly brushed off the dust on the stele. There was no name or surname on the stele, only a simple string of pure black numbers: "2120123". After that is "2120124", "2120125"...

It took Wen Xingze ten minutes to read all the row of tombstones in front of him, and finally came to Chi Yan in order, and unconsciously pulled back Chi Yan's clothes to see his strong waist.

Chi Yan: "..."

Wen Xingze: "..."

Chi Yan raised his brows slightly, his eyelids half-downcast carelessly, looking at him.

Wen Xingze quickly put down the hem of his clothes, thought about it half a second later, and pulled it away again. Can't I see it? There's no one else here, so at worst, he can just show it to Chi Yan!

"4131225".

Sure enough, this string of numbers was printed there.

Wen Xingze remembered that he had seen it before, but he didn't ask about it at that time, but now looking at the rows of tombstones, a guess suddenly emerged.

The corners of Chi Yan's lips flattened, but before he could speak, Wen Xingze said first:

"Wait a minute, let me go first."

"My name is Wen Xingze, I am twenty-four years old," Wen Xingze took a step back, looking at Chi Yan, his amber pupils looked soft. With a serious tone like an endorsement, he introduced himself plainly for the first time, "I was born in China, Zhejiang Province."

"My parents divorced very early, and I have lived with my mother since then. Because I was unlucky since I was a child, it would hurt my family. I was sent to a boarding school since I was in elementary school. After I was fifteen, I didn't have any contact with any relatives. "

To put it more bluntly, he was abandoned by his relatives. Of course, this was something Wen Xingze realized later.

In the long half of his life, "family love" was a blank and unnecessary luxury for him. When his peers are troubled by schoolwork, puberty, and parental lessons, Wen Xingze's biggest worry is always that he can't earn enough tuition and living expenses.

As of today, his only relatives are the parents of the Muse Empire. Of course, this is the best family in the world, and he doesn't need more.

Wen Xingze spoke not slowly, and without any personal emotion, he spoke to Chi Yan very seriously, so Chi Yan also listened very carefully. Wen Xingze's life was probably really simple, but within ten minutes, he covered it from the beginning to the end.

Chi Yan: "Yes."

"Thank you," he whispered.

Wen Xingze just wanted to tell him that he didn't intend to get any evaluation, and Chi Yan wouldn't make any evaluation either.

In the silent cemetery all year round, the fireflies attached to the bones are like some kind of long ballad, flowing through the thin oxygen left, isolating time.

Chi Yan looked at Wen Xingze.

"I'll tell you."

As he spoke, he walked to a tombstone and bent down to pick up the rotten flower.

—“My selfishness, madness, flaws, and disgrace, I will never hide.”
