Chapter 825 Chapter Eight Hundred Twenty-Four · "For me, it's all the same."

  The sun shrouded the devastated land, dyeing everything a brilliant golden yellow.

  With the defeat of [Tawei], the black mist dissipated, and the city-state regained its light from Eternal Night.

  When Su Mingan opened his eyes, his original body was completely dead, and his consciousness was transferred to his avatar.

  There was a slight sense of weight on the head, which should be the eagle dog military cap worn by the avatar. Su Mingan reached out to take off the cap, but there were still dust and blood on the military cap. A metal star representing a hawk and dog shone with golden light.

   In front of you are the ruins waiting to be built. People cheered loudly and danced. Ginkgo leaves and wild flowers fluttered with the spring breeze. A few white birds landed on the eaves, pecking at the seven-colored veils flying like a rainbow. The glass shattered by the fire wave scattered all over the ground, like broken stars.

Su Mingan moved slightly, and there were several wreckages of planes beside his feet. The glass of the plane had been broken, and the pilot inside was nowhere to be seen. I don't know if he was thrown out in the previous battle, or has been eroded by the black mist sacrifice.

  In the ruins, there are some broken mechanical bodies and the remains of human victims. Ahead of them, people were singing among the ruins.

  Death and rebirth are staged at the same time at this moment, like the fusion of light and shadow.

  When people fixed their sights on the center of the city-state, the building that was burning with raging flames had completely collapsed, leaving only a pile of ruins.

"we won…"

   "Where's the city lord...?"

   Calls sounded one after another.

  Even though they had seen the scene of the plane crashing into the building before, people still couldn’t believe it. Someone stumbled towards the collapsed building with blood on their hands, rummaging through bricks and tiles, trying to find something.

  They called that title high or low.

   Yet no one responded.

  Su Mingan stared at the crowd, and silently retreated into the shadows.

  He squatted down, slowly put the heavy military cap on a flat brick, turned and left alone.

  The sun smudges the brim of the military cap, it lies quietly amidst the cheers of the people, and the hexagonal star is still shining brightly.

  …

   "Ding Dong!"

  【You have completed the main mission · Find the Dawn Code. 】

  【Obtain task reward: career advancement right. 】

  【This reward will be redeemed after returning to the world of the main god. 】

  【You get SS-level task reward: SS-level turntable*1. 】

  【The turntable will be available after returning to the main **** world. 】

  …

  White light gathered in Su Mingan's palm, showing a white imprint—this is the "source of civilization" of [Tawei], and it can also be called the "source of the world".

   After defeating [Tawei], the source of the world owned by the gods is owned by the ruined world, giving the ruined world a new life.

  Su Mingan can’t take the source of this world with him. After he leaves the world of ruins, it should exist in the hands of Akto’s bionic body and continue to prolong the life of the world of ruins.

   "The lifespan of the world..." Su Mingan stared at the mark of the source of the world in the palm of his hand, and turned his palm over to reveal the six marks of perfect customs clearance on the back of his hand. The shape of the source of the world and the imprint of perfect customs clearance are not the same, but it makes people feel that there are some similarities, as if there is some invisible connection.

  Dawn system said—the source of the world represents the lifespan of a world. The battle of civilizations is carried out precisely to seize the source of the other side's world. At the beginning, the gods and Su Mingan made a civilization bet, and it was also the source of the world that the gods wanted to seize the ruined world.

   It seems that if you lose it, you lose the sovereignty of the world.

   Then, does Zhai Xing have the "source of the world"?

  Although in a scientific sense, such abstract things should not exist. But Su Mingan believes that something that cannot be verified cannot be regarded as non-existent. Just as the ancients believed that the sky was round and the earth was round, they never thought that there was a universe beyond the sky and the earth. Zhai Xing's technology is still superficial. Before the start of the world game, Zhai Xing was far from touching the theory of the universe, the life of civilization, high-dimensional creatures and other fields, and many rules were not known.

  The world game suddenly pulled Zhai Xing out of the state of steady scientific development, and suddenly raised it to the level of the struggle between the universe and civilization, causing a gap between the three views and theories. The idea of ​​"the source of the world" may have always existed, but it has not been observed at the human level, and human beings have not encountered the situation of exhaustion of Zhai Xing's resources for the time being, so there is no related concept.

  The Ninth World has given mankind an opportunity to open the skylight.

  Su Mingan's fingers caressed the back of his hand, and the pattern of the perfect pass of the Six Paths seemed to be engraved on the back of his hand, which was inseparable from him. Even if a layer of skin on the back of the hand is cut off, the tattoo will grow back.

  He stared at the back of his hand, his eyes deepened bit by bit.

"-what's on your mind?"

  Suddenly, there was a faint sound from above.

  Su Mingan turned his head, only to realize that he had already reached the teahouse in the inner city. There are still lush ginkgo trees cultivated here. The branches of ginkgo hang down, and a few stick out of the wooden windows of the teahouse.

  People were celebrating after the war, no one was leisurely enough to drink tea in a teahouse. Su Mingan raised his head and saw Su Rin by the window.

  Su Lin sat on the small second floor of the teahouse, with half of his face sticking out of the window. A few wisps of tea fragrance protruded from the window, and he rested his chin with one hand, leaning against the window with a comfortable posture.

   "Come up for a cup of tea." Su Lin raised his teacup.

   "Is there something wrong?"

   "I won't come to you if I have nothing to do." Su Rin said.

  Su Mingan pushed the door open and entered.

   This teahouse has been around for many years, and it has been around since the War of Dawn.

  The door was pushed open with a "squeak", the wooden door was damp and yellow, the boss had long since left, and the tea room behind the curtain was also empty. The tables and chairs were stacked neatly on one side, and there was a layer of dust on the ground. It seemed that no one had visited for a long time.

  Su Mingan walked up to the second floor of the teahouse, and paused.

  He confirmed the scene in front of him before walking forward again.

  There were dozens of gorgeous tea sets on Su Lin's table, next to a small hot stove, more than 20 tea boxes were placed on the ground, each cover was removed, the scene was very spectacular.

   "Look at this cup of tea." Su Lin raised the teacup to Su Mingan:

   "In this cup of tea, I put more than 20 kinds of tea, such as Biluochun, Longjing, Dahongpao, and Tieguanyin. Since you Longguo people like the fragrance of different teas, it should be a good cup of tea if you gather them together in one cup."

  He put several completely different tea leaves into the kettle, and the tea floated and sank. With the bubbling of the water bubbles, the hot air rose up, reminding Su Mingan of a witch refining poison.

   "..." Su Mingan said, "This is not how tea is drunk."

   "Really?" Su Rin said, "Sit down."

  Su Mingan sat down in front of Su Rin. There was no dust on the chair, so Su Rin should have dusted it off in advance.

   "What are you going to do next?" Su Lin pushed the cup of tea that gathered "a hundred experts" to Su Mingan.

   "After drinking tea with you, go to Liming System to ask some unsolved questions." Su Mingan ignored the cup of tea.

   "What do you think is the essence of the Ninth World?" Su Rin said.

  Su Mingan's mind flashed the text of [The Ninth World·Zhai Xing], but said: "The Ninth World is the Ninth World."

  Su Lin's eyes trembled, as if he was considering his words.

   After a while, he made a sound.

   "I've looked through a lot of information these days, and I've talked to the Liming system." Su Lin said, "Have you heard of the concept of 'parallel universes'?"

  Su Mingan's whole body tensed up, but then quickly relaxed: "I've heard of it."

"The concept of 'parallel universe' refers to other universes that are separated from a certain universe and exist in parallel with the original universe. In these universes, there are also universes born under the same conditions as our universe, There may also exist planets that are the same as the planets that humans live in, or that have the same history, and there may also be people that are exactly the same as humans.” Su Lin said:

   "In these different universes, things will develop differently: species that are extinct in our universe may be evolving and living in another universe."

   "For example—you."

  Su Mingan was taken aback: "Huh?"

"You are in Universe No. 1, and you may be the number one player in the world game. But in the parallel world, you are Asa Actor of the ruined world, without the prying eyes of the organizer, but you need to face [Tawei]'s Invasion." Su Rin said:

  "Although your identities and situations are different, they are essentially infinite possibilities for historical development."

"Similar experiences create similar people. There are billions of human beings in every world. It is not surprising that there are people like Lu Shu and Nuo Er. There are also subtle differences between people, just like Nuo Er Not in the pinnacle league, but Noah is in the nine seats."

   "So, no matter what you will learn later, you must know that it is just 'similar', not 'same'."

   "Don't hesitate, don't doubt."

  Ginkgo leaves fell from the window, brushing against the back of Su Mingan's hand like a dragonfly.

  After Su Lin finished speaking, Su Mingan remained silent for a long time.

   Until another spring breeze blew, the leaves outside the window rattled, and Su Mingan raised his head.

"So..." Su Mingan said: "If I was born in Praia, received engineering education since childhood, got acquainted with Princess Tulip, and learned of the royal family's sacrifice plan, I would also become the one who brought everyone on the airship." The young captain? I will also become the **** of Yunshang City?"

   "..." Su Lin was silent for a while:

"yes."

   "If I was born in Zhai Xing and had a family similar to yours, I would probably...become you too."

  The teahouse was silent for a long time.

  The water bubbles of the stove were beeping, and the hot air was smudged and floating, blurring the vision.

  Su Mingan tapped the teacup with his fingers.

  He thought that if he was born in a world of ruins and had eight friends who shared weal and woe with him, would he walk on the path of Aktor?

  When civilization is on the verge of ending and the invaders are stalking, will he choose to take on the heavy responsibility of going to the world and embark on the journey of human dimensionality reduction?

——

  The answer is yes.

  Aktor will make a decision with a high probability. Actor will pay, and he will most likely pay. No matter what the situation is, when he stands in the position of Aktor, he has a high possibility of making exactly the same decision as Aktor.

   While he's certainly not as smart as Actor, if a critical decision needs to be made, he will turn the bow in a similar direction as Actor.

  【Because we are this kind of people. 】The words of the gods echoed in his memory.

  【—Idealist. 】

  【You and I are the same. 】

  He also remembered what AI Xike said to him on the sixth night of the dungeon.

【It doesn't matter. 】Xike said:

  【You are all the same to me. 】

it's the same.

no the same.

  …

  【Dawn System·Central Control Room】

  White ripples flicker around, like a drifting Milky Way.

  Su Mingan walked in the invisible data space, stepping on pure white ripples with every step.

   Before leaving, he wanted to ask Dawn System some questions.

  A white light slowly came towards him, gradually consolidating. Liming System today is the image of a woman, with vague and soft features, a plump figure, and a fluttering long skirt. Every inch is full of imagination of "beauty".

  Three-dimensional maps, data, and monitoring screens float around her, and the number is increasing. It can be seen that after the lifespan of the ruined world is extended, her computing power has increased. Compared with the beginning of the dungeon, her figure is also more solid.

  Looking at the "powerful" Liming system, Su Mingan had some vague doubts in his heart, but they quickly dissipated.

   "Doctor, we meet again." Liming System nodded to him: "I know you still have questions, and I will answer your questions."

  A blond female figure with blue eyes is beside her, which is AI Xike. The two of them stood in the data space where the white light floated, staring at Su Mingan together.

   This scene gave him a sense of right and wrong. Twenty days ago, AI Xike, as his personal AI, pretended to be extremely nervous, and told him to collect the Liming code secretly and hide it from the Liming system, otherwise he would be killed. As a result, the two AIs are now standing together harmoniously, and they are clearly a group.

  Cooperating with the peak wisdom of human beings, they directed a wonderful overall situation arranged by Actor.

"Doctor, thank you for saving the ruined world. We can't repay you." Xi Ke smiled: "No matter what questions you have, please ask, Liming will try my best to answer you. Whether it is the original human being, or the catastrophe of the century, or me The method of breaking the situation promised to you before..."

  Before Xi Ke finished speaking, Su Mingan was the first to ask:

   "Where is Lu Shu?"
