First Player

Chapter 813: 812

 Chapter 813 Chapter 812·"TE·Resurrection of All Things (7

Su Mingan was slightly startled.

 Plato, born between 427 BC and 347 BC, was a great Greek thinker and philosopher. Author of the book "Utopia".

Su Mingan glanced at the book "Utopia" and said, "Maybe this book was brought in by the players."

 Noel hesitated for a moment.

“This is the most hidden place in the Dawn system. Do you think there will be players who have the opportunity to sneak in and put a copy of “Utopia” here?” Noel said.

 The two stared at the book for a moment.

 In an instant, cold sweat suddenly fell from Su Ming'an's forehead.

 He stared at the "Utopia" for a moment, then looked back at Noel, his breathing becoming more rapid.

"you mean…"

 "Su Mingan..." Noel also realized a terrifying thing.

 Their eyes wandered and moved away from the book, moved away and then condensed. Su Mingan's fingers began to feel numb as if they were electrified.

 The intense panic made every word he spat out feel like pliers tightening on his teeth.

 "That's not right..." Su Mingan whispered.

 There was a bitter taste mixed with blood in the mouth, and the blood was dripping.

its not right.

 Why is there Plato's "Utopia" in the Dawn System?

Su Mingan quickly opened the book. Whether it was the author's name or the content, it was the real "Utopia". Including the Bible next to it, it is really the original book of the Bible.

"Su Mingan." Noel whispered: "Don't panic, maybe it's just a player who gave Dawn System these books."

"Yes, that may be the case. Let me think about other details." Su Mingan nodded and opened the memory palace in his mind.

 The pictures in his memory flowed one after another. After a moment, he suddenly remembered several fragments in his memory.

 …

 Su Mingan stared at the dawn in front of him. 】

   【It looked back at him plainly, expounding the three-level concept of the "Utopia" - rulers, warriors, and workers. Those who govern a country are the most intelligent and free. Warriors and workers, on the other hand, act within the constraints of rules. Just like those with high personality, those with medium personality, and those with low personality in the City of Measurement. 】

 …

Su Mingan held his breath.

 This is the fifth day after the dungeon was opened, and he was negotiating with the Dawn System in the basement.

—Why, at that time, the city-building concept described by Liming System was Zhai Xing's "Utopia"? At that time, Su Mingan thought that the Liming System had listened to a player's recommendation and was quoting the book. But now it seems that Dawn System clearly read this book a long time ago.

 How did this book exist a long time ago, when players had not even appeared?

The pictures in Su Mingan's mind kept switching, and he remembered another conversation.

 …

  【"Is this a sightseeing bus?" Su Mingan said: "Is it a ferry boat on Huangquan Road?"】

["...I think I've heard of the underworld you mentioned before. Are you describing me taking you to your death?" Xiaobi said on the motorcycle: "Be more relaxed, maybe we will die on the way." Woolen cloth?"】

 …

This was during the War of Dawn, and Su Xiaobi drove him to the edge of the world on a motorcycle.

—"Yellow springs and blue falls represent death" is Zhai Xing's ancient culture of the Dragon Kingdom. Why has Xiao Bi, who was born in a world of ruins, heard of this culture?

 Did the player also tell her?

 …

  【Actor's body has always been very magical, and he seems to have a strong ability to empathize. When seeing the tragic scene of this city of measurement, Su Ming'an can't help but feel uncomfortable for this city-state. 】

  【Logically speaking, it is difficult for the world copy to affect his emotions. Under normal circumstances, his rationality will firmly suppress his sensibility. 】

  But at this moment, very inexplicably, he was actually feeling pain and depression from the bottom of his heart at the whine of this world. 】

 …

Su Mingan remembered the strange emotional resonance in his body. Just when he announced the defeat of the ruined world, these intense emotions broke out once.

—Why does he always feel as uncomfortable as "putting himself in someone else's shoes" when he sees the tragic scene of the City of Measurement? Obviously in the previous copy, his empathy was not so intense.

Why?

   …”

Little by little clues were pieced together one after another, like a castle in the air that was gradually built. The more pieces were pieced together, the panic became out of control like a tsunami, swallowing him up in an instant.

Su Mingan stood there, staring at the "Utopia" and the Bible. His whole body seemed to be frozen, and he could not even move his fingers. The temperature in his whole body felt like it was being stripped away, and he stopped breathing due to extreme panic.

impossible.

impossible!

 "Noel. Is there a possibility..." Su Mingan whispered.

Like him, Noel was actually trembling slightly. When their eyes met, panic pierced them like a sharp knife.

Su Mingan couldn't help but think of the first time he and Dong Anan met at night at the beginning of the dungeon. At that time, Dong Anan wanted to assassinate him, and he spoke unscrupulously towards him and was full of resentment.

 …

"Body, what should we do with her?" Ming was still smiling. He was holding Dong An'an down like a chicken, and could break her neck at any time. 】

"—Asa Akto! You must die a good death! If it weren't for you, the world would never be like this... Before the 'Century Catastrophe', human beings lived a very good life!" Dong An'an's eyes turned red. 】

  【The ‘catastrophe of the century’ she mentioned happened more than a hundred years ago. 】

A hundred years ago, a huge disaster occurred in the ruined world, and only one-third of the people survived. Historically, this disaster has been deeply covered up. People only know that this disaster occurred, but they do not know what the specific content of the disaster was. 】

 …

 Century Catastrophe…Century Catastrophe.

Su Mingan’s breathing was stagnant.

 The history before the catastrophe of the century has been buried—so what was the world like before the catastrophe of the century?

 …

["This world looks very good. Is its name called the World of Ruins?" The big mechanical army lowered its head stiffly and looked at the City of Measurement: "Sure enough, it is different from our world. At least it has green plants. Look. We can still hold on for a while, but our world is already on the verge of destruction."]

"Ruin World is its current name. As for its previous name, who cares." Little Mechanical Army said. 】

 …

—"Ruin World" is its current name. As for its previous name, who cares.

yes.

 “its former name”.

Su Ming'an couldn't help but gasp for breath. A vast ocean-like feeling of suffocation overwhelmed him, and his chest seemed to be weighed by a thousand-kilogram iron scale.

 He put his hand on the table next to him, his whole body trembling uncontrollably.

 In fact, he has always found it strange that the previous world copies had names: Baicheng, Minghui, Praia, Qiongdi...each name represents the naming of this world. But when the ninth world arrived, it became a "ruined world", which sounded like an adjective for the world, not the original name of the world.

ˆAlthough there is "City of Measurement" as an alternative name, one city cannot represent the entire world after all.

Its real original name seems to have been buried.

 So, what is the original name of this world?

  ?

  ? ?

  ? ? ?

 …

[On the first day of the start of the dungeon, Su Mingan took a look at the update plan of the Dawn system. It felt that it was similar to the game update version of the "generational version of the knife-cutting girl", such as "the T-shaped measurement value of MQN increased by 20%", "reduce 50 high-level personality quota”...there are also some adjustments related to residents’ treatment, occupation, security, and robot army. 】

  【These are very similar to the same thing. 】

【…Big Data. 】

The power of the Dawn System lies in the fact that deviations that may be caused by human rule will definitely be measured and adjusted bit by bit under the impartial and cold eyes of the Dawn System. Let everything be as close to "best" as possible. 】

  【These reminded Su Mingan of Zhai Xing. 】

—Zhai Xing also has big data and even rudimentary artificial intelligence. 】

 …

—Zhai Xing also has big data and even rudimentary artificial intelligence. 】

 …

The room was silent.

This world is so cruel.

 Su Mingan thought.

 The world was so cruel to him.

  He swallowed the bitterness in his throat and realized that he had vomited blood at some point.

 It turns out that a person can really suffer to this extent due to pure mental breakdown. Even though he always uses himself as a tool, he still suffers from mental breakdown.

When exactly did he think that as long as he ran fast enough, that as long as he squeezed himself to the limit, he could save everything?

"Hey! I found that the most confidential document is this - An Jiang, look at it!" At this moment, A Du finally found the most confidential document. It didn't notice Su Mingan's panic and spoke happily, waiting for praise.

“…” Su Mingan looked at the document with trembling eyes. He was still taking chances and did not dare to confirm the possibility that he thought of.

 This is a document that introduces information about the world of ruins, with key points highlighted in bright colors. When Su Mingan saw the text in the top column, he remained motionless.

At this moment, it was as if a **** knife had cut open his head and thrust a line of horrific words into their irises.

His eyes went dark, as if the blue sky was falling in front of his eyes.

"—Su Mingan! Su Mingan!" Before Noel had time to read the document, he immediately turned around and caught Su Mingan. He didn't know what Su Ming'an saw yet, but looking at Su Ming'an's expression, it was a line of words that made him extremely desperate.

Su Mingan was caught by Noel and remained motionless.

 A piece of his heart collapsed long ago and became his most personal obsession.

 He has long been numb to pain. He doesn't know when he is laughing or when he will cry. Only a little ideal of salvation kept him breathing.

 Just like now.

When Noel caught Su Ming'an, he realized that Su Ming'an was not smiling or crying. His face was peaceful, as if all his soul had been drained out.

 "Su Mingan! Su Mingan—!"

 He called out Su Mingan's name loudly, but received no response. Su Mingan was motionless, his eyes were clearly open, but his pupils seemed dead.

"Noel." After a moment, Su Mingan spoke up, his voice hoarse: "I understand why "Utopia" and the Bible appeared in this world..."

 There was nothing in his eyes.

Noel’s fingers holding him were trembling. He didn't understand why Su Ming'an was in such pain after reading a line of text, but he still provided support.

They stood quietly under the simulated sunlight, the pages on the table resting on the ideas of the rulers. "Whoosh", "whoosh", the exhaust wind blew the pages of the book, and the light and fluttering sound like the fluttering wings of a white dove sounded.

Noel's golden hair stuck to Su Mingan's arm. The originally bright hair color gradually faded little by little in Su Mingan's eyes, and finally, only black and white remained.

 “Ding dong!”

The system prompt sounds.

  【It has been detected that the player has been exposed to the ultimate information of Dawn System. 】

  【The final information of "The Ninth World" has been completed. 】

 …

Noel wanted to turn around and look at the document to see what Su Mingan had just seen, but his eyes were blurred by the simulated sunlight outside the window and he couldn't see the line clearly.

Su Mingan kept staring at the line of text and smiled softly and slowly. This smile seemed to break at a touch.

 He was lying in the clear sunlight, his face extremely pale, like a non-existent ghost.

 “I know.” He smiled:

 “I’m crazy, this must be an illusion, and that line of text is fake.”

 “Yes, it’s a hallucination. I’m crazy.”

Noel turned to stare at Su Mingan. He saw the look in Su Mingan's eyes, like a blue whale sinking to the bottom.

 There is no light left.

 “What did you see just now?” Noel said softly.

 What is it about words that makes you suddenly so frightened? What is it that makes you feel like your soul has been drained out?

"Noel." Su Mingan held Noel's hand and said hurriedly: "I'm crazy... right? That's why I see hallucinations."

He looked at Noel with a pleading look, which made Noel feel as if he was about to collapse.

It was the first time Noel saw Su Mingan begging him like this. Like a self-deceiving psychopath. The expression on the black-haired young man's face was neither distorted nor anxious, but so calm that it frightened Noel.

 Noel really wanted to tell him...if you see something that makes you despair, you can cry out and don't have to suppress your expression like this.

Under the sun, the despair in Su Mingan's eyes was like a heavy lightning, penetrating Noel's whole person in an instant. Even though Noel knew that this was not an illusion and that what Su Mingan saw was most likely real, Noel still followed the meaning of Su Mingan's words and nodded.

 He lowered his head, took a breath, and whispered.

 …

"…right."

 “You’re crazy, what you’re seeing is hallucination.”

 …

  【The final information of "The Ninth World" has been completed. 】

 …

The wind blew through the pages, and the red-shell Bible on the table slowly closed the last page.

 The text on the screen flashed, and the fonts were exposed as if they were gilded. They overlapped with the text in the column at the top of the document and gradually overlapped.

 Noel supported Su Mingan and slowly turned his head, golden light spilled into his blue pupils—

 The top of the file.

A line of small characters quietly flashed with golden light.

 …

  【Ninth World·Zhai Xing. 】

 …

 …

I saw in the right hand of him who sat on the throne a scroll written on the inside and on the inside, sealed with seven seals. 】

  【—Bible "Revelation·The Lamb Opens the Seal"】

 …
