"Of course, in the Star Prison, these are meaningless." The Collector did not think there was anything wrong with his words. He continued with a regretful tone: "Kong Yueze handled it very cleanly, leaving no chance for a comeback."
"However, I have always suspected that even if he really died, the plan to leave the Star Prison might not succeed."
The regretful expression quickly disappeared from the Collector's face, and he said in a relaxed tone: "After all, it's Kong Yueze. He must have prepared emergency response measures for Xingyu after his death."
Indeed, in the first round, the key point of the total annihilation ending was the death of Kong Yueze, but the direct cause of the total annihilation was that Xingyu chose to self-destruct.
"If it succeeds, that would be great. If it fails, that wouldn't be surprising." The Collector: "After all, our goal is to destroy the Star Prison. If it were so easy to do, then the Star Prison would not have existed long ago."
Jiang Yiyi raised her eyebrows: "It seems that you are very clear about the consequences of failure?"
"The consequences of failure"? The collector thought for two seconds before realizing what Jiang Yiyi was referring to—all those who participated in this plan were backfired, and everyone, including his parents, died as a result.
But that cannot be considered a consequence. After all, only something that makes people feel regretful or even painful can be considered a "consequence."
The development that failed to stir up any emotional waves can only be regarded as a minor episode not worth mentioning.
"Of course I know what will happen after failure. It's just not important, so there's no need to emphasize it again, or even have intense emotions about it." The collector analyzed this calmly, politely and extremely calmly: "That's the reaction of ordinary people, not us."
"If the doctor wants to find humanity in me..." The collector looked at Jiang Yiyi: "That might disappoint the doctor."
"All the psychological testing I've done, combined, adds up to a staggering number of diagnoses of multiple mental illnesses that they try to explain why I am who I am."
"In the end, Sora Yueze told me that all this was because I was a failure of evolution."
The collector looked up at Jiang Yiyi and smiled: "Obviously, this is a wrong conclusion."
"We attribute our differences to evolutionary failure, as if being different from mainstream society is a mistake," the collector said. "But we must admit that there are other people in this world who are different from normal people."
"They are different from mainstream society, but they still exist. This is not a mistake. All existence has value."
Jiang Yiyi's focus shifted to something else again: "These other people who are different from normal people, do they refer to people with special abilities? Or do they refer to people with abnormal mental states?"
The collector had a mysterious smile on his face and did not answer the question. =Jamie Daxs
Jiang Yiyi did not continue to ask. Regardless of whether they were people with special abilities or those with abnormal mental states, as the collector said, to crudely attribute their existence to "failure of evolution" obviously denied the value of their existence.
They are human first, and then they are capable people.
"But no matter which type of people you are referring to, they all have the right to exist," Jiang Yiyi clasped his hands together and said calmly, "What shouldn't exist is the data world with absolute will."
The collector has another view on this: "In fact, it is normal for the game to have absolute will. What is abnormal is that the doctor appears here."
"I don't comment on the doctor's choice." The Collector said, "I am just sure that the doctor's idea, that is, to destroy the old world, was premeditated by 'others'."
Underestimating any capable person will be enough to make you realize at some point in the next moment what a big mistake this is.
Jiang Yiyi fell into a brief pause - the collector, who knew nothing about what Jian Si and Li Yihe had done, and even had no knowledge of the first and second rounds, found the key as a bystander.
The collector did not remain silent because of Jiang Yiyi's silence. He gave Jiang Yiyi some time to react and then continued with his words.
"The doctor's presence here led to this conclusion - the data world with absolute will should not exist."
"But if the doctor doesn't show up, then this conclusion itself is wrong." The Collector said slowly: "After all, players don't think the existence of the game is a mistake."
"I'm not saying this to prove that there's nothing wrong with the old world." The collector said in a relaxed tone, "I just want to say that all the doctors' judgments are based on the conclusions drawn from the doctor's perspective. They can neither represent this world nor humanity."
The Collector paused for two seconds: "In fact, there is no substantial difference between the Doctor and the old world where 'absolute will' exists."
Jiang Yiyi looked at the collector.
"The doctor should have discussed this with the abnormal person." The Collector's tone remained calm: "After all, the abnormal person likes to dig out the evil in human nature, and this is the doctor's biggest weakness. He can't just turn a blind eye to it."
There was no need to recall, the conversation was clearly imprinted in Jiang Yiyi's mind.
"He did talk about that, about whether the world needed saving from me."
"Doctors are also pushing for the arrival of a new world as an absolute will."
The Collector said happily: "I have no inclination on this point. I just remind the doctor that, in a certain sense, the players who should not exist in this world are another absolute will in themselves."
Jiang Yiyi thought thoughtfully: "I find that you are very interested in digging out my negative existence and denying me."
"Human nature is evil," the Collector said calmly, "not to mention that we are still a long way from becoming good people."
"If we don't pull doctors down from the moral altar, how can we lure them into the abyss and make them what we want them to be?"
"So, you haven't given up the idea of 'collecting' me?"
"Please don't say that." The collector reacted very quickly, almost immediately following Jiang Yiyi's words, "Although this is indeed true."
Jiang Yiyi watched him perform.
The collector continued in a cheerful tone: "But if the doctor makes this judgment, everything will become extremely dangerous - for me. Although I am not afraid of death, I still have an excellent collection that I have not completed. It would be a pity if I missed it because of death."
“So, I don’t want to repeat the old path of the deviants for the time being.”
"An excellent collection with unfinished collections..." Jiang Yiyi was more interested in the collector's words: "New World?"
"I am very interested in the new world seen by doctors." Collector: "But unfortunately, it is difficult for me to collect a world, so I have to settle for the next best thing..."
Is it just a little difficult to collect a world
These people with special abilities have a madness that exceeds the weight of their lives regarding their little quirks.
Perhaps it is precisely because they do not care about life or death that the only thing that makes them care makes them more paranoid, coupled with their innate madness, they have become what Jiang Yiyi sees now.
The collector leaned forward slightly, staring at Jiang Yiyi with sharp eyes, and finished the second half of the sentence: "Who is the 'other person' who made the doctor come up with this idea and who had planned it in advance?"
Jiang Yiyi seemed to have guessed what the other party meant by "settling for the second best".
The collector's tone remained amused from a certain moment just now: "I am very interested in him."
"It's a bit difficult to collect a world, but collecting an objectively existing 'human' is an area I'm good at, especially since the other party is also in the Star Prison."
The collector counted them one by one thoughtfully: "Li Yihe? It's possible. The wisdom he possesses is indeed beyond imagination. If this is because he has an extremely close connection with the New World, then it is completely understandable."
"Bai Cang? That's possible. His ability is indeed very strange." The collector looked at Jiang Yiyi: "When the abilities of the ability users are all related to psychology, spirit and thinking, suddenly an ability that suppresses other abilities appears..."
"Doctor, don't you find it strange?"
"Given that the new world is closely related to abilities, it wouldn't be surprising if Bai Cang had abilities that were different from everyone else's because of his special relationship with the new world."
"Besides that..." The Collector paused for a few seconds and suddenly looked at Jiang Yiyi: "The strange thing about Jian Si is that he is too harmless."
"Of course, this can also be explained by the fact that he is very dangerous in another state, but he..." The Collector searched for the right words: "He is out of tune with everything. Whether it is Jian Si in a harmless state or in a dangerous state, he always gives people the feeling that he should not be here."
"If you think about it from another perspective, it's not strange enough, but that's the strangest thing about him."
The collector came to the final conclusion: "Is it Jane Si?"
Jiang Yiyi gave him a look that was somewhat doubtful.
"The most important thing is that only Jian Si followed the doctor to the bottom floor, while Bai Cang and Li Yihe were at the bottom floor from the beginning."
"Considering that the 'other' who pushed the doctor to make this choice must have some kind of connection with the doctor to ensure that the doctor will eventually reach the destination he wants, then Jian Si, who appeared with the doctor at the beginning, is obviously more likely to be that special person."
"So, it is Jian Si?" The collector said with some regret: "I don't really like his current appearance. I wonder if his true self can bring me some surprises."
After the collector got the answer, he made no secret of his intention to end the conversation: "Doctor, if there is nothing else, I'll go play with him?"
Jiang Yiyi raised her chin slightly: "Sit down."
The Collector sat back in his chair quickly.
"I don't recommend you do this. It's dangerous." The Collector was not surprised: "It's expected, if he really has some close connection with the New World..."
Jiang Yiyi interrupted him: "He is the new world."
The collector sat up straight. Even though he had been restrained enough, he still couldn't hide his joy: "That's what I wanted." His eyes were really shining: "An excellent collection."
This is their reaction. Ordinary people are the first to realize that this means an invincible powerful existence, while people with special abilities are the first to get excited about the danger and excitement contained therein.
"You know that it doesn't take much effort for him to kill you." Jiang Yiyi said plainly, "In fact, I don't think collecting him is much easier than collecting a world, but if this is your little hobby, feel free to do so."
At least it's better than him setting his sights on someone else.
The collector stood up impatiently, took a few steps, then stopped thoughtfully, turned his head and said to Jiang Yiyi: "Doctor, considering that Bai Cang's target is obviously you, I think you should be clear."
"He is equally untrustworthy."
There was the sound of a door being pushed open, and the collector subconsciously turned around and looked at Bai Cang who was staring at them.
Bai Cang walked slowly past the green plants that were lush enough to form an obstacle, stopped at the table by the window, and looked at the collector with an ambiguous expression.
The atmosphere was somewhat silent and tense.
The silence was broken by Jiang Yiyi.
He said to the collector: "You can go now." =Jamie Daxs
The collector did not rush to act. He maintained his gaze with Bai Cang and restrained his joyful emotions a little: "You have other intentions, but you are far from being trusted by the doctor."
"But unfortunately," Bai Cang pulled out a chair and sat in the seat he had just sat in, "Of all the people, he trusts me the most."
"That's indeed a pity." The Collector was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he walked back to the table and asked Jiang Yiyi with interest: "Although Bai Cang has always behaved very rationally when he is not out of control, he is still a person with special abilities."
"And the doctor should already know very well what extent people with special abilities can go for their little quirks—from my experience with abnormal people."
"I know very well." Jiang Yiyi glanced at Bai Cang and said, "What does he want."
Bai Cang looked at Jiang Yiyi and smiled.
The collector's eyes moved back and forth between Jiang Yiyi and Bai Cang twice, wondering at the strange atmosphere between them.
"You can go now." Bai Cang glanced at the collector: "Or do you want to stay?"
He spoke threatening words in an ordinary tone, and made the words "stay" sound like "die here".
"Tsk." The Collector shook his head and walked towards the door. As he walked out the door, he looked back at the window again.
Jiang Yiyi was still calm and Bai Cang was still strong, as if nothing had changed.
Bai Cang stared at Jiang Yiyi and whispered something. Jiang Yiyi turned his head to look at him.
The sunlight shines on them, creating a golden filter.
But it seemed that something had already changed.
The Collector stared at the scene for two seconds, and when he turned and left, he felt a strange emotion in his heart - worthy of being 1-001.
"It seems that your conversation went smoothly?" Bai Cang didn't pay attention to the collector and said directly: "It's normal for a collector. Compared with abnormal people, he is less dangerous."
Jiang Yiyi turned her head to look at him: "Is this the main reason why he is 1-008?"
Bai Cang nodded: "Although his little quirks are not good, most of the time, he respects the personal wishes of his collections and is willing to provide them with a living area that meets their needs. What is more dangerous is his collections. Some of his collections have very bad hobbies, which makes the collectors who provide them with living areas more dangerous."
After Bai Cang finished speaking, he changed the subject: "It sounds like you talked about me?"
Jiang Yiyi had no intention of hiding it: "Do you realize that your ability is different from other people with special abilities?"
"I know it very well." Bai Cang said, "In fact, the biggest difference between me and other people with special abilities is that I am not staying in the Star Prison because of violating the law."
"I have reached a cooperation with Sora Yueze regarding the cooperation between people with special abilities and human evolution."
Their conversation was very calm, and there was no surprise or other emotions from beginning to end, which made the conversation continue very smoothly. =Jamie Daxs
Jiang Yiyi pondered and said, "Indeed, even when you lose control, the specific manifestation is to make the ability users lose control. In the outside world where there are no large-scale gatherings of ability users, this cannot cause large-scale casualties."
"He found me first and convinced me." Bai Cang recalled, "And I was really bored at the time."
"To be precise, I have always been in this state." Bai Cang looked at Jiang Yiyi and said, "The world is very boring in my eyes, and the same goes for death and excitement. I am strong enough, and they seem weaker... and boring."
“It wasn’t until the doctor showed up that I found new joy.”
Jiang Yiyi nodded calmly and brought the topic back to the point: "Then why are you the only one who is different from them?"
"I don't know the reason." Bai Cang paused for a moment, and suddenly showed some interest: "But the doctor seems to have never thought that this might be related to you?"
"Given that Li Yihe once judged that the doctor was a game planner..." Bai Cang said seriously: "Then, perhaps the reason why I am different from others is that the doctor created this game in order to save his sick lover, and then..."
Jiang Yiyi took a deep breath and said, "Although I don't know where you saw such a clichéd plot, I would like to remind you to watch less of this kind of stuff in the future, as it can easily affect your IQ."
Bai Cang said confidently: "I like this guess, and I like the subtext contained in this guess even more."
"But that's impossible." Jiang Yiyi ruthlessly punctured his thoughts: "From the beginning to the end, I didn't lose my memory."
"Since the doctor in the second round can't remember the memories of the first round, who can be sure that there is no problem with the doctor's memory?"
Jiang Yiyi put it another way: "I am not a game planner. The reason I can be sure of this is that I am sure that I will not do the behavior of 'making a stupid game and then entering this stupid game'." "People may doubt their memory, but if you lose the judgment of your own behavior, then perhaps you are doubting not only your memory, but also yourself."
"And the doctor never doubts himself." Bai Cang took over the conversation, revealing regret: "Then I have no idea why I am different from other people with special abilities."
He paused for a moment and said, "What about the other way around? Maybe I planned it to save my dying lover..."
The remaining half of the sentence disappeared silently under Jiang Yiyi's gaze.
"There's no need to associate you and me as lovers." Jiang Yiyi remained calm from beginning to end: "If you describe your feelings for me as love, it would make you appear too weak."
Bai Cang put away his unnecessary emotions and said calmly: "But ordinary people like this definition."
"And doctors are more like normal people than crazy people."
Even the sentence "I hope you like it" was said so tactfully, with such clear logic that it diluted the emotions contained in it. I can only say that he is worthy of it.
Ordinary people...
Jiang Yiyi recalled the life of an ordinary person in his memory.
"The doctor smiled without realizing it."
Bai Cang moved closer, stared at Jiang Yiyi's smile and said, "Most people enjoy danger, excitement, and power because they have the ability to crush others, but the doctor seems to prefer the past."
"Because the lives of ordinary people are much better than this."
The repetitive peaceful daily life is filled with trivial matters. There is no sudden death, and even the grass by the roadside can hold its head high towards the sky.
This is the most ordinary life and the best time.
In an era where being strong enough is a privilege, it should be clear that countless people have become the bones of privilege because they are not strong enough.
Being the strongest of the one in a billion is not something to be thankful for. In a world that cannot protect the weak, when there is someone stronger than you, no one will protect you.
The author has something to say: We are really just a little bit away from the ending.
The next chapter will be about the love story.
Then start racing towards the finale.

I started thinking about what kind of extra story to write. How about an extra story about playing this game from the perspective of a player (a tool man)
Or is there anything you guys want to see
Feel free to put forward your ideas.
