Chapter 564 Chapter 561 · "Let me... sleep."

  【Lord God World·250 Servers】

  Noel was pacing along the street, looking at the communication panel that had been [unanswered], a little worried.

  ...Su Ming'an has been not answering his communication. Logically, this is not sleep time. Why is there no communication?

  Noel was nervous for a long time, and he finally received a reply from the afternoon to the evening.

   He chose to agree, and with a flash of white light, he teleported to Su Ming'an's personal space.

   The simplicity here is extreme, the monotonous wooden table board, the narrow single bed, the floor that can hardly be squeezed...

  ...and Su Mingan sitting on the bed with his head down.

   "Su Ming'an?" Nuoer suddenly found a few vials of injections on the table.

   The needle tube was bright red, and there was still a little blood-like liquid left inside, as if it had been injected. Knowlton became nervous, and he realized that this was the mental stabilizer that Su Mingan said earlier.

   "Are you alright." Nuoer immediately squatted down and looked directly into Su Ming'an's eyes.

   He saw a pair of calm eyes.

  No waves, no sadness, no pain, no negative emotions.

   He heard Su Ming'an's very low voice.

   "...I'm fine." Su Ming'an said, "The medicine is very effective...I feel very relaxed."

   "What happened? What happened in the afternoon?" Noel felt wrong.

  Su Ming'an stretched out his hand and threw the used injections into the waste bucket one by one. The waste bin has the function of automatically cleaning up the garbage, and after he threw out the injection, it became as clean as new.

   He stared blankly at the injections that disappeared in the barrel, remembering what he had just seen.

  【The truth of the world】.

   Xiaona... or the existence behind her, showed him a... illusion.

   is a very real fantasy, like a reproduction of what happened in the past.

   At the moment the world game begins,

   In the city still, pedestrians still, the moment he walked out of the cafe,

  The screen has changed.

  At that moment—he saw Zhai Xing, who was riddled with holes and looked like the ruins of the apocalypse.

  The bustling traffic in the city was still at the moment when the game started, as if the beautiful illusion suddenly disappeared, and what appeared in front of him was a scene of apocalyptic ruins.

   The remaining six billion people who should have been suspended and not selected into the game have disappeared at all.

  ...like when he overthrew the black wall that had been holding them back for so long, only to find that there was nothing outside. Zhai Xing became empty, and even if the world game was over, there would be no one on it.

   It's like - the world game may have been held more than once, and they were the seventh batch of participants.

   The first six batches of people, the six billion people... are gone, and they have all been destroyed because the progress bar of the first six world games failed to meet the standards.

   He was shocked by this guess and trembled all over. At that time, Xiaona appeared beside him and whispered to him softly—

   "That's good too, right?"

   "Even if you only become a **** of a billion people, you will find it interesting, right? Apart from the six billion people who have failed, maybe you are the first batch to succeed...?"

  Xiao Na's voice was very low, but in those beautiful slender eyes, there was a focus of observation.

   Seeing this, Su Mingan immediately chose to back down.

   His extremely fearful gesture has been seen by the organizers, and he must not leave hidden dangers.

  After he turned back, he calmed down and was ready to see that doomsday scene again, so he answered Xiaona's appointment again and was teleported to the void.

  —But then, he found that the picture had changed.

   is no longer the scene of "6 billion people disappear, Zhai Xing becomes the end of the world". It turned into a scene of "Zhai Xing ascended to dimension, everyone sharply turned into high-dimensional creatures, and began to fight with each other, kill each other, and finally be wiped out".

   He immediately realized something.

   He noticed that Xiaona was floating not far away in the void, watching him intently.

   Seeing this, he pulled back again.

   The third time he went back, he came here as promised, and what he saw was another scene.

   Logically speaking, there is only one [truth of the world]. The truth is the truth, how can there be so many truths, and some are diametrically opposite?

   Every time he turns back, the [truth of the world] he sees is different.

  …unless, these are not truths, but illusions.

  Otherwise, he would not see different "truths" in different episodes.

   He figured it out quickly.

   - Xiaona is playing a game of [Schrödinger's Cat].

   That is, a cat is sealed in a poisonous chamber. If the nucleus decays, releasing the cyanide gas in the poison bottle, the cat will die.

   And the decay of atomic nuclei is a random event - so, the cat will always be in a superposition of living and non-living. Only the moment the lid is lifted can you know exactly whether the cat is dead or alive.

   Lifting the lid is a state of [decision], not a simple [observation] state—whether or not people lift the lid to see, will decide the life and death of the cat and change the state of the cat.

   Therefore, before he stepped into the void and observed the so-called [truth of the world], this [truth of the world] was uncertain. It will automatically generate an ending based on the subtle differences between his different gears, such as the difference in stride, the speed of walking, and even the number of breaths. as a mapping function.

   Therefore, he sees a different picture every week.

  It has nothing to do with true or false, nor is it the truth, it is just an automatically generated picture.

   And Xiaona, by observing whether he is surprised by this change, to determine whether he has super-special abilities such as [Prophecy], [Deduction] or [Reversion].

  …it panicked him.

   She was testing him in this way.

   She was crossing time lines, crossing world lines, testing him with the subtle wrongness of his possible attitude.

   Xiaona's way of testing is almost exactly the same as Noel.

  Although Xiaona's intention is only Su Ming'an's guess, but this guess is only a slight possibility is true...

   "—Su Mingan, Su Mingan?"

  Noel's hand shook before his eyes, and he raised his head.

   The so-called [Truth of the World] that he saw this week is a scene of "the players in the top of the list have completely collapsed, and the human progress bar cannot reach the standard". Therefore, there should be no problem with the panic, fear and other emotions he is showing now.

   is exactly in line with his real state of mind at this time.

   should not reveal the fact that "he has a retraction, so he sees a different [truth of the world]".

  Last week, what he saw was the [truth of the world] that "the final score of human beings has reached the standard, and the organizer is very friendly to humans, and even the boss rabbit is here to save human beings". This positive "truth" certainly doesn't match the real emotion of his panic, and it's easy to expose the fact that he has out-of-spec abilities.

   But it should be fine now.

   He went back six times, pretending to be a normal him.

   He bowed his head slightly, actually starting to feel sick.

   He bent over involuntarily, retched a few times with his hands on the bedside, and suddenly realized that this was an adverse reaction to the mental stabilizer. He took too much medication in a short period of time, and his body hadn't gotten used to it yet.

   "Cough, cough... vomit..."

   A violent dizziness began to impact his mind. He lowered his head, leaned forward, pressed his chest and abdomen, and tried his best to relieve this nausea.

  While retching, a thought suddenly popped up in his heart - his current mood is quite in place, which is in line with the state of seeing the negative [Truth of the World] just now, and he should not be exposed.

   Mingming's mind is in a mess, and his body is extremely uncomfortable, but he can deliberately pretend to be like this according to the possible setup of Xiaona...

   Is this an instinct?

  … a ridiculous instinct.

  Noel immediately patted him on the back.

   "Su Ming'an, is your mental state the same as mine?" Noel said, "Your situation is obviously more serious than mine, and I said it was fine before..."

   "Stop taking pictures." Su Ming'an said.

  Those who want to vomit can't be patted on the back at all. Noel is still patted like crazy.

  Noel immediately stopped, looking a little embarrassed:

   "What did you experience in the afternoon? You were also invited to a place by the organizer?"

  Noel knows that there are many players with special status who have been invited by the organizer. He himself had only been there a few days ago.

   But before leaving that place, they signed an agreement not to reveal what they saw, and as long as they tried to reveal it, the voice would be automatically silenced.

  Su Mingan took a breath.

   "Yes," he said.

   He suspected that the place he and Noel and others went to were not the same place.

   But he could guess - this should be a differentiation action by the organizers against humanity. For example, seducing Edward to become a special status person. For example, persuade Noel to embrace Gaowei. Or, use the resurrection sister as a temptation to persuade Mizushima Kawasora to give up the perfect customs clearance, etc.

   is getting harder and harder.

…too difficult.

  Su Ming'an has long known that he can't pin his hopes on others. And now, this feeling is more and more obvious.

   - He can't even guarantee that even one person has the same mind as him, and has the determination and ability to absolutely go on.

   At this moment, a sudden sense of drowsiness struck his heart.

  Humans need sleep because they need spiritual peace in this state.

   The mental stabilization potion he just used seemed to be giving him a chance to rest.

   He opened his eyes and fell to the side uncontrollably.

  Noel immediately pulled him and made him fall on the bed.

   "...let me." Su Mingan said, "I will sleep."

   His condition has always been normal.

   His mood has always been stable.

   He is not at all like Noel, who is so exaggerated that he can't see the color at all, nor does he have a very strong crazy and collapsed mood like Edward.

   But after using the potion, he suddenly realized...

   Some patients do not realize that they are sick.

  …Like a lunatic who always thinks he is normal.

  Nuoer said softly: "Su Ming'an, I don't know where you just went or what you saw. But I don't think there's anything to be afraid of. Since we've tried our best, it's better to be optimistic..."

   Hearing Nuoer's very soft words, Su Mingan closed his eyes.

   "...Good night," Noel said.

  …

  Su Mingan occasionally has lucid dreams.

   The feeling of being in control of your dreams and being able to learn to think in your dreams is fascinating.

  Sometimes, he would meet his father, and he chatted with the father he had imagined in the dream, as if this would dispel all suffering.

  Sometimes, he also thinks of his grandma. Grandma would give him candy and protect him from being beaten and scolded.

   As he fell into the dream, his consciousness gradually became blurred.

  …Is he still conscious? Still asleep?

   He couldn't see anything, even everything was a mixture of black, white and gray.

   He could not hear any sound, as if the world had become nothingness.

   He had nightmares.

   He dreamed that Zhai Xing was destroyed, everyone died long ago, and the world game was just a dream for him.

   He dreamed that he was not actually him, but a clone sent down by a higher-dimensional creature. All his memories, wills, and ideals were meaningless, just fabricated thinking products.

   He dreamed that his death rollback was actually given by the organizer. They were like playing with an ant, watching him struggle in the death of reincarnation, adding a little fun to the game.

   He dreamed... Even if he struggled to the end, he couldn't save Zhai Xing, the progress bar of human beings did not reach the standard, and everyone died together. Those with special status cannot return to their human status, and disappear into the dust of the universe along with the disappearance of the game.

   In the end, he finally dreamed of a rather happy ending.

   He saw that he filled up the progress bar little by little, collected the tattoos that had completed the customs clearance one by one, saw the return of the homeland, the rebuilding of the homeland, and saw the smiles reappear on the faces of the people.

  ...then he left without looking back, disappearing from people's sight forever, shattering little by little, and disappearing like melting ice and snow.

   The pain of death was so familiar that it made him feel like "nostalgia".

  —so that when he opened his eyes, there was still a picture of his complete death in front of him.

   The alarm clock "Ding Bell" that Noel placed on the table before he left was ringing, and it was exactly eleven o'clock in the evening.

  Su Mingan turned off the alarm clock with a 'pop', blinked, and suddenly found that his eyes seemed to be suddenly brighter.

  Bright interior light, bright yellow woodcarvings, bright white walls…

   The layer of gray fog that had been in front of his eyes had dissipated with this sleep. Even his mood at this time is very stable, and he does not have the feeling of uncontrollable trembling in the afternoon.

   The effect of the medicine is very good. As long as the adverse reactions are overcome, it will really have a therapeutic effect.

   He calmed his breath, quickly expelled those nightmare images out of his mind, opened the personal panel, and started to use points.

   Since the end of the eighth world, he has not used the points, just to add points at the last moment to make the best decision.

   It was exactly eleven o'clock in the evening, he slept all afternoon, and he would enter the ninth world in an hour.

  Because he bought a 60-point psychotropic potion in the afternoon, he now has 796 points.

  Open the email and first receive the one-time equipment upgrade right given by the special easter egg.

   He thought about it for a moment, thinking of his poor mobility in his shadow state, he chose water boots, and upgraded this red-level equipment to purple-level.

  …

  【Water Boundary Boots (Purple Level): "Let the sea water pour into my chest... It's so hot in my arms."

  Bounce: SS (highest)

   Running Speed ​​+30%

Special skill (stab cutting): Active skill, kicking forward, causing 50 (fixed damage) + 8*strength point damage, this attack has a special damage effect on obstacles, and a special damage effect on space items such as enchantment barriers .

   Special Skill (Long Song Xing): Passive skill. You gain the ability to "walk on water", which slightly increases the speed of stamina when used. 】

  …

  Water boots have the effect of destroying space items after being upgraded. The most satisfying is the jumping power raised to SS, which is the highest level of jumping power in the world game.

   He crushed the three skill upgrade stones obtained from the eighth world main quest, and chose all of them to upgrade to "Space".

   After upgrading to [Space lv.6], new space skills appeared.

  …

  【Space lv.6:

  Long Distance Spatial Displacement: Each use costs 30 mana. After the five spatial displacements are used up, you need to wait for half an hour to recharge.

  Space Vibration: Use space vibration to attack the enemy from a distance (power has been increased)

  Space Concealment: Continue to consume mana to build a hidden space, which cannot be discovered by existences weaker than you (except for super-spec skills). 】

  …

The improvement of    space skills is mainly concentrated on [Space Displacement], the mana consumption has been reduced from 120 to 30, and the number of uses has been increased from three times within one hour to five times within half an hour. Even in the bright state, it can have strong mobility.

   The second is the new skill Space Concealment. This kind of skill Su Mingan has heard of, is similar to the domain.

  …Now, he finally has domain skills.

  The field can exist in a certain area for a long time, and it can even pull others in and hide together. This will provide a lot of fault tolerance for his dangerous raiding process. With his spatial understanding and Lamb Barrier, he may be able to figure out some new ways to play.

   He spent 50 points to replenish the magazines of the two purple-level guns, and all the remaining points were used for 4D points.

   The state has added 60 points of strength, and the strength has been piled up to 140 points. There is a passive [Power Suppression], which can suppress all attacks under 100 points of strength, and the sword will have priority judgment.

  Shadow state is to pile up 60 points of spirit and 217 points. After all, the san value copy is terrible, and high spirit means high resistance.

   Moreover, each spiritual attribute point will bring a maximum mana of 20 points, and the mana value represents the total amount of damage that can be dealt. Of course, the higher the better.

   He wanted to continue adding points, but he had already reached the upper limit. Tier 4 players can only add so many attribute points, plus they have to wait until Tier 5.

   He will not use the remaining 146 points, leaving enough buffer points.

   After doing all this, his combat power soared from 2650 to 3000, which was a big boost. The wave of the eighth world is almost equal to the sum of his gains from the two previous worlds.

  ... Therefore, the gap between the top players and ordinary players will really only widen, just like the difference between clouds and mud.

   In the next time, he briefly chatted with a few friends.

At this time, the world chat was very lively, all of which were "The Ninth World is finally here!" "Ye Qing is back!" "Adventure players come on!" "In this case, will someone really end?" "Predict a wave Xianxia world, eat Lu Shu upside down by mistake!" Such words.

   He sat on the bed, closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and adjusted his state.

   Every time the world is copied, he walks on a tightrope, dancing with danger and death.

  …I hope this copy will be a little smoother.

   As he waited, time came to zero little by little.

  …

  【2022/01/18, 0:00】

   "Ding dong!"

  【Break time is over - dear players, welcome back to the world game! 】

  【The Ninth World: The City of Measurement·Actor. Global open 10,000 dungeons/special development dungeons. 】

  【Participating players: 329801928 people! 】

  【The City of Measurement will be copied into 32,980 identical copies, and each copy will invest about 10,000 players to play! 】

   [Because the player is entering the game for the ninth time and no longer learns the common language of communication, 10 points will be automatically deducted to learn the common language of the ninth world! 】

  【—The world begins! 】

  …

   His eyes were shrouded in teleportation white light.

   "—【Dawn】Intellectual brain divides human beings into eight personalities according to their temperament and psychological state. Human talents are scientifically quantified and classified, thus establishing a new order..."

   He heard a gentle male voice.

   But that voice... seems to have come from his own mouth.

   The voice stopped when he realized it.

   He blinked and saw a large classroom...and a black head.

  People sat in the classroom like obedient students, all raised their eyes and looked at him earnestly and admiringly. Looking at the number of students, there are at least 150 people going up.

   He lowered his head and found himself sitting on the podium chair, as if he was lecturing.

…what's the situation?

   What kind of possession is this?

   He blinked, and the classroom was silent for a while in eerie silence.

   He suddenly saw a young teaching assistant next to him, came up with a worried expression, and supported him nervously:

   "…Are you okay? Is your body okay?"

   Seeing that Su Mingan seemed to be still in a trance, the teaching assistant shook his shoulders with extreme restraint:

   "...Dr. Arctor?"
