Crazy.
The world has gone completely crazy.
The captain of the private plane still performed his task sincerely - when delivering a speech at the Gray Palace, he made final preparations on the plane without looking at any screen that could convey information. It was not until the plane landed steadily that the stewardess who was responsible for serving them saw the starry sky outside the window and suddenly spoke as if crying and laughing.
"Brother Chen! Brother Chen! I'm Ranran!"
She seemed to have suddenly fallen into a world that belonged only to her... She lowered her head and began to use her mobile phone to call her ex-boyfriend from many years ago, acting out some scenes of "the delicate school girl and the cold school bully" before the breakup and reconciliation. Lan Hua stared at her dully, and could only be pulled by Yi Wan's sleeve and sneaked down from the other side.
"… Although I don't know how Gray Palace did it, it seems that he really made the whole world crazy. Many people listened to the broadcast, understood the matter of 'luck', and began to take certain actions. At the same time, his revelation of the truth and his successful manipulation of the loopholes in the rules seemed to trigger some emotions or rules of 'Heaven', 'Him', or 'Them'… "
"He also thinks that the world would be better if it became like this?" Lan Hua was dumbfounded. "I don't understand it at all... All of a sudden, everyone in this world has started to go crazy."
"Perhaps 'they' feel that this world is completely hopeless - after the Gray Palace revealed the truth. On the one hand, they are disappointed that they were 'controlled' by the Gray Palace and had their loopholes 'exposed'. On the other hand, 'they' feel that if this continues, there is no need for this destroyed world to exist. It is better to let it go crazy and be destroyed. Just like facing a badly finished article or world view, all readers and authors feel that there is no need to force the article to be revised and finished." Yi Wan said lightly, "In other words, this world has been abandoned. The behavior of the Gray Palace is like the last straw that broke the camel's back for a bad article. If 'they' wanted to find some bright spots in it before, try to change the protagonist, revise the article, and read another article to save their own creation and reading experience... Now, the behavior of the Gray Palace allows 'they' to finally give up this world as a matter of course. And all the people in this world have lost their meaning as 'human beings', so of course they can all go crazy and be ruined as a matter of course."
So, perhaps to some extent, everything the Gray Palace does is not a call to action or a revelation of the truth to everyone in this world.
He was having a conversation with They who were the "Heavenly Way".
The content of the conversation is: Take a good look at the world you see, it is so illogical and hopeless... In this case, why not just give up, leave, and let it completely collapse
Yi Wan thought for a moment and then said, "After all, readers can't just eat shit all the time."
"Bad article?" Lan Hua was dumbfounded again, "Eat shit?"
Yi Wan glanced at him and said, "... Do you think that a world full of corny protagonists is not a bad universe? Maybe 'they' have wanted to give up this universe a long time ago. This is why Gray Palace's madness was not stopped - this is exactly what they expected to give up here. Let this universe rot, let this world explode, at least there will be fireworks to watch in the end. And what we are facing now."
It is a world that has been completely abandoned.
—Gray Palace, is this what you want
"Who are he and them?" Lan Hua asked, "Are they the Heavenly Dao?"
"Excuse me, we need to get in the car," Yu Rongshi said, "Everyone in the airport looks crazy."
For example, the fangirl who is taking photos crazily.
For example, several passers-by are performing a plot of chasing their wives to the crematorium.
There were a few more people. They seemed to have hesitated for a long time... Finally they climbed up to the tall building and jumped down from it. Like dumplings. With the sound of "pa pa pa", the three of them, led by Yu Rongshi, passed through the chaotic jungle of people.
The airport was so chaotic... someone even recognized them. They screamed and started running after them.
"Yu Rongshi, right? Yu Rongshi?"
"And Yi Wan and Lan Hua..."
"Catch up with them!"
"Wait, those two don't seem to be on the list, only Lan Hua..."
The last sound was quickly drowned out.
"Chen Ke..." Yi Wan suddenly said softly.
"What's wrong?" Yu Rongshi immediately caught his voice and asked him.
Yi Wan remained silent.
Has the girl who was cute and real both in dreams and in reality become like this
Escaping the airport became a terrifying and difficult task. In particular, many people seemed to have found a reason to vent their grievances in life in this spreading madness, and began to take the opportunity to beat up passers-by. When the three ran to the van that Yu Rongshi parked in the airport, the people behind them had already followed them like a tide of zombies.
"Without Yi Wan and Yu Rongshi? This is impossible."
"Lan Hua! You caused xx and xxx to lose their chance, shouldn't you come out and apologize?!"
"Yi Wan... It must be Yi Wan who framed Jiang Bei, right? Yi Wan must have used his luck, but he just didn't appear on the list!"
"And Yu Rongshi... This is impossible!"
At this time, there was a sudden commotion at the back of the airport. The commotion seemed to attract everyone over, so they let Yi Wan and the others go for the time being.
The three of them took the opportunity to get in the car. Just as Yu Rongshi was about to start the car, he heard Yi Wan's voice: "Wait a minute..."
The crowd at the back was shouting, "There are four people there! Four protagonists!"
Wait a moment.
Four main characters.
This bad feeling...
There are no coincidences in this world. Yu Rongshi said: "Can they really catch up?"
Yi Wan: "Well... after all, it is the rainbow group that creates miracles..."
“Swish!”
The rustling sound of the wheels was heart-wrenching. Amid the screams of the crowd, a long hand-pushed cart rushed out!
Sitting on the cart was the weak Chi Jixia, An Yelin gritting his teeth, Bo Jiang with a broken face, and Ding Biehan, who was moving at high speed like a skateboard in front of him with a determined face... Yi Wan looked at them and murmured, "He is indeed the invincible Ding Biehan." The invincible Ding Biehan! He saved the Rainbow Group again!
"Get in the car!" Yi Wan leaned out and shouted, and asked Lan Hua to open the trunk.
An Yelin: "Ahhh!! This won't work!"
Chi Jixia: "Wait, I seem to still be a patient."
Bo Jiang: “…Forget it.”
Ding Biehan: "Follow me!"
With a loud bang and a huge crash, the four people were squeezed into the trunk like a flower roll - fortunately, this van was used to carry equipment, so it had a very long trunk. Before the crazy crowd could react, Yu Rongshi stepped on the accelerator: "Hold on!"
The invincible Ding Biehan once again used the physical fitness of an infinite male protagonist, stretched out his hand and closed the trunk in an extremely twisted posture!
The van sped away with a roar, leaving behind only a cloud of dust. In addition to Yu Rongshi, Yi Wan and Lan Hua both looked back at the four people huddled together in the trunk. Chi Jixia was pressed at the bottom and groaned: "My ribs—"
Lan Hua: "How did you get here? How did you follow me here? You drove here like a speeding car!"
Chi Jixia said in a low voice: "The system urged me to wake up, saying that Huigong had started to cause trouble. You have already gone there. As teammates of the Rainbow Group, of course we have to come and stop it! What is this called, the character of a protagonist?"
It seems that they have reconciled with the system, and under the current circumstances, they have no plans to break up for the time being... Yi Wan added: "Actually, we want to know how you got here. After all, there are no other flights today."
Lan Hua said, "Ding Biehan, you didn't fly here with the three of them, did you?"
Ding Biehan had the ugliest expression, and was also the most serious and dull. Bo Jiang huddled aside and coughed, saying, "Ding Biehan isn't so invincible..."
An Yelin argued: "You forgot that I still have many suitors! It was President Qiao who found a plane for us and sent us here."
…Oh, that tech company CEO who runs Tesla.
This time, Xiao An's money skills won out. Bo Jiang said, "Listen to me first. I am the captain of the Rainbow Group. Yi Wan, although we don't know many things, we also know some things roughly."
… How come Bo Jiang also started talking about nonsense literature.
Bo Jiang: "In the face of a disaster, no matter what you want to do, there is no reason for the Rainbow Group to leave you alone to face it. Remember, we are a group."
… Not this kind of group!
Yi Wan was silent, and finally said: "I want to find Hui Gong... that is, Xie Ziyu, that is, Gu Ruchao."
The other three people: oao.
The other three people: "What? Huigong, Xie Ziyu, Gu Ruchao? Who is Gu Ruchao? Who is Huigong? Xie Ziyu is not x, right?"
… After all this time, you still don’t know anything! So what do you mean by knowing something
The only one who didn't speak and had a serious, sad and cold face was Ding Biehan. Yi Wan felt that the invincible Ding Biehan should have finished thinking, so he said: "Brother Biehan, you..."
Ding Biehan said: "I know who you are talking about."
Yi Wan: “Yeah.”
Ding Biehan said to the other three people: "Gu Ruchao, Huigong, Xie Ziyu, x, if I'm not mistaken, they are all the same person - that is, the main god and final boss of the infinite flow game I'm playing. It is said that infinite flow players must pass the last hell-level copy to pass the game. Now it seems that the infinite flow that leaked into the real world is this last hell-level copy. I failed to stop it from leaking out, and I have implicated you."
His face was filled with sorrow: "It's all my fault!"
Yi Wan: … … …
So what the hell do you know
Ding Biehan continued to explain, and even Bo Jiang followed suit to analyze it seriously. In order to avoid the conversation being derailed, Yi Wan poked Lan Hua and said with him: "Actually, this is what happened."
Let’s briefly analyze the logic.
1Our world is a universe full of "stories" formed by many "protagonists".
2 Above this universe, there is "Heavenly Way". "Heavenly Way" is the ultimate combination of the consciousness of a group of story readers. "His" goal is to find enough dramatic, attractive, "cute, refreshing, sweet, face-slapping" and rhythmic stories in this world to show people. The more of these stories, the better, so many "protagonists" came into being.
3 Those who are willing to cooperate with the aesthetics of "Heaven's Way" and use their own lives to perform these stories will be endowed with luck and become the so-called "protagonist" with a golden finger, sacrificing their own selfishness and gaining a perfect life.
4 At the same time, in order to hit the aesthetic point of "Heaven's Way", they will use any means to interfere with other people in this world, or other rules in this world.
5However, these clichéd stories make the operating logic of the world itself (economy, military, social humanities, and even everyone's life) shaky and full of contradictions. People are like pigs and dogs, losing their humanity and everything. At the same time, they also cause aesthetic fatigue of "Heaven's Way", so "Heaven's Way" has been looking for new stories.
6 In order to allow the "Tian Dao" to find new stories, more routine stories are born in this world, just like the situation where the studios know that the quality of their stories is not good enough, but they try to rely on the "routine novel writing experience" spread on the Internet to produce the same stories in batches and make money by quantity. This further leads to the aesthetic fatigue of the "Tian Dao", the further collapse of the world, and the madness of the "Tian Dao" - madly looking for new stories.
7 Gu Ruchao is the first protagonist to discover the rules of "Heavenly Way". He felt hopeless and broken in this world, and eventually turned evil because he could not control his own life. For more than ten years, he has been thinking about how to take revenge on the whole world. The broadcast just now is the big move he is going to release in more than ten years. By the way, Lan Guang, the underworld company, was also created by him and Lan Bo, which further deepened the rottenness, stink and collapse of the world. (To stimulate Heavenly Way)
8 His ultimate move, while making everyone realize the falsehood and madness of this world, finally made "Heavenly Dao" feel that a. they were actually played by a character. b. It's really shameful, and this world is rotten, just give it up. It doesn't matter what happens to everyone in this world, let's rot, stink, and go crazy together! c. It doesn't matter what happens to Gu Ruchao, at least he let "them" watch the last good show.
9This is Gu Ruchao's final revenge and "freedom". This is his long-planned revenge against the entire world. Now they are going to settle accounts with Gu Ruchao. And they also want to get more information from him.
(10 Hidden message: Yi Wan has some ideas... but he won't say them.)
"So that's what happened...?" Lan Hua was stunned. He looked at Yi Wan with an expression that said, "What on earth is this kid talking about? It's so terrifying." He turned to the other four people and asked, "Do you have any questions?"
When did Yi Wan come up with this set of clear logic... which is wrong at all and can explain everything
He looked at the remaining four people. Ding Biehan said nothing, and the other three were silent. Only then did Lan Hua feel a little superior - he still knew more than them.
He was a little worried that these four people would collapse. After all, they were all "male protagonists". It would be hard for them to accept the fact that they were pawns and toys all of a sudden... They might jump out of the car and go crazy.
An Yelin: "No wonder, I feel like I have to get entangled with President Fu after my rebirth. This story is really terrible. It's no wonder that the Heavenly Dao doesn't want to see it."
Lan Hua:
Bo Jiang: "Hmm... So this is my mission now, right?"
Chi Jixia: "Is that so... It seems like it's time for me and the system to save the world together! This is the hero's mission!"
Ding Biehan finally raised his head, his eyes showing confusion, then firmness: "I think my theory of the Lord God is more logical. You helped me improve my logic. Considering that you don't know the infinite flow, it's really hard for you to be able to reason to this extent."
So what the hell did you come up with?!
Yi Wan patted Lan Hua on the shoulder and said, "This is Hongtuan."
Lan Hua:
