"Three hundred years ago, Ah Mu and Ashin died in the real world, and their souls were led by a crystal core of unknown origin, and entered the edge of the dream."
Amu began to tell a long story, his tone was unhurried, his eyes looked beyond Yu Sui in front of him and looked into the distance, not knowing what he was looking at.
"At that time, the marginal world was still a miniature world, with an area of about 1,000 square meters. The combined area of about twelve or three rooms can be said to be a very, very small world... Amu and Amu Letters survive in that world."
"At that time, the fringe world was not as complicated as it is now. It was just a pure dream space. In this dream space, all your imaginations will come true."
Yu Sui couldn't help thinking along with what A Mu said: "Will all imaginations come true?"
"To put it simply, something will appear if you want it." A Mu explained, while showing Yu Sui the operation on his hand, he said, "For example, if you want a beautiful dress."
As soon as Amu raised his hand after speaking, Yu Sui felt the clothes on his body gather and twist, which made his skin a little tight. He looked down and was shocked to find that his clothes had been changed. What the player "uniforms" is a loose gray prison uniform. But now, as soon as Amu raised his hand, he changed into a bright blue, more fashionable T-shirt and jeans—even the scattered hair on Yu Sui's head was cut off and tidied up in an instant.
"For another example, you want a table full of food." Amu continued to operate, and he waved his hand again, and a table covered with white embroidered tablecloth appeared in front of Yu Sui, with all kinds of food on it. Food, fruits and vegetables, chicken, duck and fish, cakes and wine, everything.
"It's even an exquisite and warm room..." Amu didn't wave his hand this time, but snapped his fingers, and a villa bungalow appeared behind the throne where he was sitting, which was still the kind with a small courtyard.
Amu himself also turned back and looked at the bungalows that appeared behind him... which didn't match the painting style of the throne map, and then turned back and smiled at Yu Sui: "As long as you can imagine it, the dream space will make your imagination come true." Realization, turning all fantasies into reality."
"Moreover, materialized items can be used, and materialized food can satisfy hunger. In the dream world, your wishes come true, immortality, immortality, and eternity."
Yu Sui seemed shocked by what A Mu suddenly showed. He stared at A Mu with wide eyes, but couldn't say a word for a long time.
"However, the more flawless something seems, the greater the hidden disadvantages behind it." Amu said regretfully, "The same is true for this dream world."
"Things in the marginal world cannot be taken out, nor can the two brothers Amu and Axin, because they are already dead in this world, and they have only a dead end to go out. On the one hand, this magical world has indeed fulfilled their wishes and made them 'Surviving together', on the other hand, restricts their freedom and traps them in this square inch."
"In the beginning, they didn't complain, they were lucky enough to survive, and in the marginal world, their wishes come true, there is nothing lacking, they eat, drink, play, play and sleep every day, what a wonderful life, it's like heaven Same."
"But after a long time, they found that this is not a paradise."
Amu looked at Yu Sui, "You can imagine being trapped in a small small space for a long time. Although there are many things to play, but unable to communicate with the outside world. Although there is a dear brother I am with you, but you have talked about all the topics you can talk about, and you have nothing to say, so you can only look at each other in relative silence."
"What kind of feeling is that?"
Yu Sui didn't need to imagine, he lowered his head and instinctively reached out to hug something, but then realized that he was not on his own throne map, and there was no familiar skeleton beside him.
"They are only lonely." Amu continued, "Two lonely people embrace each other tightly in order to warm each other, but as time goes by, the loneliness becomes more and more serious, even hugging each other is not enough. There is no way to ease the rescue."
"Furthermore, although the fringe world structure at that time was small, it also needed wishes as energy to support it. The wishes of the two brothers Amu and Ashin alone were not enough to keep this mini fringe world alive. Apart from being alone, the two brothers could also Feeling that this small world is gradually collapsing, and the crisis is pressing on their heads, they have to make some efforts to survive."
"They thought of a way to not only keep the marginal world alive, but also relieve loneliness, and make this narrow world expand little by little."
When A Mu said this, Yu Sui suddenly understood. Even if A Mu didn't speak next, Yu Sui could guess the next plot, but this speculation made Yu Sui shudder: "The reason why the marginal world is so small is because Because there were only these two brothers in it at the time, their wishes provided too little energy, and they could only support a small world. So to make this world bigger and keep this world alive, you only need to keep accepting new people Just come in."
"That's right, that's it." Amu said.
"Actually, even if the brothers Amu and Ashin don't do this, the fringe world will still absorb new people by itself. I don't know if you have seen or heard of the crystal core in the fringe world."
Yu Sui remembered that in his map of the throne, Jin shared the information he knew with Yu Sui in detail, so Yu Sui nodded at Amu, "Although I haven't seen it, someone told me that the edge The world has a crystal-like core. This core exists in the real world. It has the power to constantly lure others to degenerate into "dreamers". Once the dreamers die, those dreamers will enter the marginal world in their dying dreams. .”
"The most frightening thing is that those who have fallen into 'dreamers' themselves have become a medium. As long as they describe, write or paint works related to the marginal world, their works will attract more people to become 'dreamers' , and thus continue to spread, making the marginal world more and more powerful."
Amu was a little surprised: "You still know quite a lot."
"Absolutely no more than you know." Yu Sui crossed his arms and looked at A Mu seriously, "From what you said, I have roughly figured out what's going on, maybe it's been more than three hundred years. A few days ago, the brothers Amu and Ashin accidentally touched the crystal core. Before they died, they made a wish to activate the core, forming a miniature world for their souls to live in, and the crystal core will still be like Contagious like a virus, attracting more people into this miniature world.”
"Absorbing the 'wish' of many people, this miniature world then grew up, and grew bigger and bigger, becoming the fringe world we see now, right?"
"That's right, that's it." Amu nodded, "But there was a long process of development... Think about it, the fringe world didn't become a killing game like it is now, and the fringe world at that time was just a small It’s not a small space that can be seen at a glance, and as the fringe world continues to absorb new souls, this space is crowded with all kinds of people, you say so many people are crowded in it, what will happen?”
"What else can there be?" Yu Sui just felt sad, "So many people are crowded together, trapped inside and unable to get out, once conflicts arise, fighting is unavoidable, especially according to your description, at that time The fringe world is a 'whatever you want' mode, and these people probably staged an unbelievable battle in it, right?"
"Bingo! That's right." Amu smiled and clapped his hands. "And it was a battle with extremely heavy casualties. At that time, Amu and Axin also died in it... Well, to be precise, they didn't die."
"Not dead?" Yu Sui didn't understand what he meant.
"Because the fringe world at that time was in the mode of 'all wishes come true', although a war broke out, but no one wanted to die, so they would make a wish that they would 'not die' during the war." Amu explained, "But there is no death. , the contradictions and conflicts cannot be effectively resolved, and the fighting will continue without end.”
"So, in order to end this battle, someone made a new wish."
Amu paused at this point, his eyes darkened: "A wish that can end wars, resolve conflicts, and make no one die."
"What wish?" Yu Sui became inexplicably nervous.
"Assimilation." Amu replied in a low voice.
"Everyone is fused and assimilated into one person, and they don't have to fight anymore, and they don't have to die."
Mu Qin's throne map is not very cold, the temperature here is very balanced, it can even be said to be very warm, but Yu Sui suddenly felt cold all over after listening to A Mu's speech, he stared at A Mu in front of him After watching for a long time, a terrible conjecture suddenly popped up in my heart.
"Who are you?" Although this conjecture was gradually forming in his mind, Yu Sui didn't dare to express this conjecture, so he could only ask Amu silently, "Who are you?"
"Me? Me..." Amu pondered slightly, "I'm Muchen... and also Amu."
After finishing speaking, Amu raised the corner of his mouth and smiled at Yu Sui: "How about it, do you know the origin of the name 'Amu' now?"
