Chapter 1041 Chapter One Thousand and Thirty-Nine·"The Age of Witches·39 Years" (Thanks to the leader of "Bitter Rain and Changing Wind")
People with corresponding relationships will become more and more similar under the convergence of this world line, like - [my past self merges with my future self].

"That's why Su Wensheng's attitude changed." Su Mingan pondered: "Because the integration of the times has deepened, he has been influenced by 'Su Wensheng' from other eras."

He remembered what Su Wensheng once said to him.

……

["The gods control many worlds - those who have passed away, Qinwang, Sherud, Naraku, Noah... Maybe the gods can help you find 'them' who are still alive."]

……

...So, it is indeed different, just similar.

The dead are gone, and the people who look the same are no longer them, and they will never come back.

"At the end of the day, there's the Dream Patrol game, and we've launched the essence of it," Noll said.

It can be seen from "Cat and Her" that the essence of the Dream Patrol game is to let humans transform into the fourth natural disaster and enter other eras.Deepen the integration between different eras through interactive methods such as completing tasks, dialogues, buying and selling, and gaining favor.

As long as the people of this world come into it, no matter what they do, the two eras will be close to each other in some sense.

【game. 】

【world. 】

Su Mingan became more aware of the vastness of this world.

The Dream Patrol game was indeed what shocked him the most.Anyone's life can become a game with just a few changes.

——Things that are happening in other eras are slightly modified by "Dream Patrol" and turned into a game [main plot] for players to experience.

——Human life in other eras, slightly disguised by "Dream Patrol", has become a game NPC [side plot] for players to experience.Players can change the attitudes, actions and plans of NPCs and mess up their lives as much as they want.

——Human emotions and families in other eras were slightly covered by the "Dream Patrol" and turned into a favorability system for players to participate in, as well as the [love, marriage, and childbirth] functions in the game.

——Positive feedback from other eras, such as improving skills, obtaining money, obtaining treasures, etc., has been slightly replaced by “Dream Patrol” and turned into——[Dream Patrol Spirit Points] that can be redeemed by players.

As long as the positive feedback of the game such as task prompts, numerical display, health and mana calculations, follow-up task tracking, and dream patrol points are added, the "world" can be turned into a game called The "game" of the times.

It is a historical fact that soldiers in the war years sacrificed their lives and blood and risked their lives to escort the little girl.It became an asymmetric pursuit and escape competitive blood pressure game "Cat and Her".

It is a historical fact that the eldest prince in ancient times devoted himself to the people and refused to join the darkness to prevent the alien king Su from resurrecting.It became an option selection real-time action ancient style game "Louyue Kingdom".

A girl in the steam age was chosen as a goddess to lead people through the world crisis.It became a warm, healing and nurturing simulation game "Girls' Dream Project".

Players become the fourth natural disaster, enter the game, change the game, and disrupt the game.They are curious about any trash can, any pottery pot or box in a resident's house.He even killed someone just because he was curious about what rewards would be dropped.Even because he wanted to trigger a certain dark subplot, he would massacre innocent people, take the initiative to go to jail, and scream shirtless in the street.

Under the cognition of Meng Xun,
Under the cover of the game,
Under the deception of the gods,
Under the "game mentality" of the fourth natural disaster that people act recklessly——

……

--thus,
——The game becomes life.

……

——Other people’s [life] becomes your [game].

——Your [game] becomes other people’s [life].

……

The fragrance of black tea spreads in the air.

Noel blew the bubbles on the surface of the tea. He seemed to be obsessed with this somewhat childish action, like a child chasing colorful balloons.

"Turn [the world] into [game], turn [game] into [life]... God is really a good trick." Noel sighed softly: "The world... the game..."

It’s a noun chain that makes people get goosebumps all over their bodies.

"Game" is given a special meaning here.It no longer belongs to the plane, it no longer belongs to the screen, it no longer belongs to the tool of entertainment, and it no longer belongs to... pure 0 and 1.

Su Mingan put these organized clues into his mind and looked at Noel: "So, have you been in other eras in the past few days?"

Noel said: "I was in an era of witches and black magic, probably in the past 328 years, and I never met you from the beginning to the end."

……

[Under the burning candlelight, Su Mingan saw Noel at a glance - Noel was wearing a white ribbon sacrificial robe, with golden decorative metal on the cuffs shining brightly. This outfit that was not in line with the worldly style was put on Noel, proving that he wanted to leave. I've been through a lot to get here. 】

……

No wonder Noel wore such a unique style of clothing during that scrap.Su Mingan didn't think about it carefully at the time, but now she realizes that Noel at that time came all the way from the witch era, otherwise Noel would not be able to dress like this in modern times.

but……

Su Mingan looked at Noel and suddenly read the code.

Su Mingan sent out the secret signal - dead stop.Did not say.era. (Why didn’t you tell me in the Abandoned Weekly episode that you came from the Age of Witches?)
Noel replied with the code word - no. (If I didn’t say it at the time, I couldn’t say it at the time.)
Su Mingan initiated a secret code - why.

Noel hesitated for a moment and replied with several codes:

Divination, witch - (I met many divination witches during my witch era.)
Can’t say——(They told me that things of this era cannot be told to another era in any form.)
Gods——(Otherwise it will cause the gods to be alert and cause unknown consequences.)
To be on the safe side - (I don’t know if cause and effect can locate the secret code between us, so to be on the safe side, I didn’t say anything. If I tell you and you can’t go back, that will be troublesome.)
Although Noel only replied four or five nouns, Su Mingan understood what Noel meant.Their code words cannot be communicated in long paragraphs, and nouns are enough.

Su Ming'an replied with the secret code: Now, fusion - (So the reason we can say now is that my era and your witch era have merged, so there is no longer a boundary?)

Noel replied - yes, fifth, game. (You are right. As far as I know, the fifth Dream Patrol game should be the story of the Age of Witches.)
Su Mingan’s reply code - difficulty (will the game be difficult?)
Noel replied - fun (fun.)
……

Their codes went back and forth, exchanging a lot of information, like giant glaciers lurking under the sea, intertwined with invisible schools of fish.

On the surface, it seemed that Noel was inviting Su Mingan to drink tea, and the two chatted and ate pudding, as if nothing had happened. "Will the gods catch up with us?" Su Mingan looked back.The mountains in the distance are continuous, and the golden-red sun shines on the world. The only thing parallel to him is the orange-red color like burning clouds.

Noel smiled and said: "Not yet. The gods cannot directly attack us. He can only use the power of words to seduce people like Mizushima Kawakawa and Xue Qixia to become goddesses and sons of gods, allowing them to receive the power left over from ancient times. But as long as there are people on our side who accept the power left over from ancient times, we can compete with them."

"A relic from a thousand years ago..." Su Mingan nodded.The gods are the only ones who remember history, so they know where the ancient ruins are. No wonder Mizushima Kawakora is so powerful.

But Noel said that someone on Su Mingan's side also accepted the ancient relics. Does this mean that someone on Su Mingan's side also took refuge in the gods?

"It's Xiao Jingsan. He didn't take refuge in the gods, but he took refuge in another person who also remembers history." Noel said.

Su Ming'an was speechless for a moment, then thought of a possibility: "...she took refuge in the alien king?"

He always felt that the overlapping shadow in the starry sky was the Alien King. The gods wanted to expel the Alien King, so they wanted to destroy the world to gain some kind of power.So the gods are villains, and the alien kings are also villains, and neither of them are good things.

"I know these two are enemies." Noel said: "But...if we fight with a tiger, we can only seek the skin of another tiger. Otherwise, none of us will become gods for the time being, and it will be difficult to survive under the tiger's mouth. . Even if the alien king has evil intentions, we can only exchange strength from it to fight against people like Mizushima Kawakora."

"Xiao Jingsan..."

Su Mingan felt a little dry and cold in her mouth.

Mizushima Kawakawa has gained such powerful power, the gods cannot give it to her in vain, she must pay for it.Either personality, dignity, or other limitations.Therefore, it is the same reason to seek power from the alien king, and you will definitely have to pay a price that you cannot imagine.

"What did Xiao Jingsan... pay for? To be strong enough to... snatch my body back and even hold back the gods?" Su Mingan said.

Noel stared into his eyes.

Put down the black tea slowly.

There was a crisp sound.

"self."

Such a word came out of the boy's mouth.

This word does not sound like a heavy price, but it seems to be no more than life and soul.But for some, it is larger than life.

Xiao Jingsan... actually achieved this.

Su Mingan's initial impression of this person was not good.Xiao Jingsan killed so many people and bombed Daoya City. Although it was later confirmed that Xiao Ying was responsible, Xiao Jingsan did execute people from the City Guard Department.He is not a pure and good person. For his paranoid "heaven", he has stained a lot of blood on his hands.

However, evil people will also pay a price for the world and make such sacrifices.

A person's good reputation and bad reputation are not simply black and white.

Noel raised his head. He was also wearing a pair of earrings - red and blue intertwined earrings.In Noel's witch era, Noel was positioned as a protagonist similar to "Su Ming'an", and he obtained a historical prop like "Heart Blood".

Su Mingan had already dragged the earrings into the equipment compartment, but Noel was still wearing them.Under the morning sun, the earrings were sparkling, and Su Mingan could clearly see the red flowing between the earrings - like the intertwined blood vessels of countless people, like the blood flowing like countless streams.

History...era...destiny...the world.These vast and heavy words should not be concentrated on small individuals, let alone teenagers.

But these things have been condensed in this earring and on their shoulders.

"This time, the special medicine rained heavily for two hours and then stopped. It must have been that the Holy City regained control, which caused Yamada Machichi and his troops to retreat, so they were forced to stop the rain." Noel said: "This time The heavy rain of special medicine brought back the 'past' of more than 100 years and the 'future' of three years."

"...Three years."

Su Mingan sighed.

Before he faked his death, he saw signs that time was accelerating.It seems that this heavy rain has accelerated time by three years.

A lot must have happened.

Su Luoluo should be 21 years old now. How is she doing? Has she become the best entertainment anchor?How is Li Yuxuan and his human self-rescue army developing?Three years have passed. Will the people who support the old gods give up because of the death of the old gods?
This acceleration of time is like a fast-forward slideshow in the player's perception. Players can know what is happening around them, and they also roughly know what they have experienced in these three years that have passed so quickly. After three years of real experience, it will not break away from reality.

"Let's go." Noel suddenly stood up and finished the pudding on the plate: "We have arrived - the headquarters of the Human Self-Rescue Alliance."

……

The height of the crow begins to sink,
The rising sun in the distance returns to the mountains inch by inch.

Su Mingan lowered his head and saw——

Mountains of light rail and viaducts hover between the cities.Most of the tall buildings like jagged rocks are tens of meters high, painted with highly saturated colors.The lights are like pythons all over the pipes and high-rise buildings, and they still look weird even in the daytime.

The antique eaves are mixed with mechanized steel, and the red lanterns in front of people’s houses are embroidered with elements of Western crosses.In the center is a tall church.

What stunned Su Mingan was that in the square of the church stood a statue of himself, more than ten meters high, surrounded by chrysanthemums.Even then, many players were still standing in front of the statue crying.Some people knelt down and kowtowed, some buried their heads in offering incense, some donated merit money, and some cried wildly holding his black and white photo.

"Su Ming'an... go on your way... ah... Su Ming'an..."

"Su Ming'an...wuwuwu...Su Ming'an..."

It can be seen that the players are really sad.

Seeing the wonderful expression on Su Mingan's face, Noel laughed: "It doesn't matter now, after all, you are still alive."

"Welcome to-" He opened his arms as if embracing the strong wind:
……

"——The era of 830 years in the old days (present day), 622 years in the old days (past Louyue era), and 512 years old days (past steam era)."

"The old god who was resurrected from the dead."
