Chapter 1265: One Thousand Two Hundred and Sixty-Two - [Second Transformation.]

Su Mingan rescued Siyi.

They arrived at Siyi's house, and Siyi quickly made tea for them.

Xiao Su walked around the house. The girl's house was small, the furniture was shabby, and the small cabinet beside the bed was locked.

"What is this?" Xiao Su squatted down and asked.

Siyi came over hurriedly with a broom in hand: "This... this is my personal belongings."

Xiao Su coughed and stepped back.

Siyi served tea to the guests. The inferior leaves floated in the water, and there was a pungent smell of tobacco. But she looked very serious, as this was the highest level of entertaining guests at home.

"Have you lived here since childhood?" Su Mingan asked.

"Well... I had a father before, but he left soon. My neighbors saw that I was alone, so they sold me to a research institute in the inner city." Siyi said.

"Did you meet anyone else?"

"I have a brother...but he is gone too." Siyi lowered her head. There was a star necklace on her neck, which was left to her by her brother.

"Sorry." Xiao Su changed the question: "By the way, aren't there no children in this city?"

"Occasionally, there are newborns born, just like me. So children of my age are very valuable and are always being sold." Siyi twirled her fingers, feeling a little restless.

"I have a good idea." Xiao Nuo held his chin lazily and whispered to Xiao Su: "...We can pretend to be parents who sell their children, so that we can enter the inner city and find players with blank identities."

Xiao Su frowned slightly and glanced at Siyi. It was hard to imagine how much hardship a child like this had to endure living alone in a city like this.

"Of course not selling her." Xiao Nuo waved her hand: "I mean... selling me."

Everyone present was stunned.

Xiao Nuo looks to be fifteen or sixteen years old. Although he is no longer a child, he at least does not look like an adult.

"No... No!" Siyi said timidly: "This Mr. Nuo may not be suitable. This white-haired man in the wheelchair is more suitable."

"Why?" Xiao Nuo asked in surprise.

Siyi took a deep breath before giving her reason: "Because, because the research institute doesn't want children with blond hair."

This reason really shocked everyone.

Su Mingan originally thought that it was incredible that the blonde Hui Bi and Hui Bai were not welcomed by the World Tree. But it seemed like a strange rule that all blondes were not welcomed.

Finally, after discussing it, they decided not to involve Siyi in the storm and let Yamada Machi stay to look after her. Xiao Su and Xiao Nuo pretended to be adults selling children and pushed Su Ming'an to the inner city.

"Thank you for the tea." Xiao Nuo touched Si Yi's head: "We will go into the inner city and end this."

"Really?" Siyi opened her eyes wide: "Will children like us be loved?"

"Yeah." Xiao Nuo responded.

“…By the way, did you hear any sound?” Yamada Machiichi walked around the house and suddenly pricked up his ears.

They stopped to listen, and there was a faint rustling sound. Like the sound of wind, leaves, fabric rubbing against each other, or...

"On my head!" Xiao Su suddenly shouted loudly.

Su Mingan looked up and saw between the cracks of the broken tiles——

There are a pair of cold, dark and gloomy eyes.

"Crack-!"

The next moment, there was a crackling sound, and the uninvited guest chopped the roof with a knife, tiles fell down, and the blade flashed white light. He was wearing a turquoise robe embroidered with kingfishers and winter plums, and wearing black boots, and chopped at Su Mingan with a knife!
Su Mingan was stunned for a moment, because he recognized that this was Lu Shu... No, this person's expression was colder and gloomier than Lu Shu's.

"Swish!" Xiao Nuo opened his hands, and the puppet threads emerged, forming a big net, but were cut off by the oncoming person with a knife.

Su Mingan raised his hand, and a blood-red scale flashed above the head of the visitor.

"You go first." Su Mingan said to them.

"Okay!" Xiao Su believes in his powerful NPC friends. They cannot hold their friends back. The one who runs farthest is the best.

Under Su Ming'an's protection, little Su, Xiao Nuo and Siyi ran away together. When they ran out of the house, the roof collapsed completely, accompanied by the sound of floating smoke and falling bricks... The girls' home was destroyed.

Su Mingan sat in a wheelchair amid the smoke and dust. The young man stepped on the bricks and stones, walked towards him step by step, and looked at him gloomily: "From now on, you are forbidden to follow Xiao Su."

Su Mingan said: "Who are you? This is our business, what does it have to do with you?"

"Yes." The young man lowered his eyes and said, "I am the [plot modifier] of the Disciple Game. I am responsible for correcting the 'errors'. Travelers cannot change major nodes. You should not affect the protagonist of the Disciple Game."

The young man's words were obscure and difficult to understand, but Su Mingan quickly understood - the 2021 version of Xiao Su was the protagonist in the Disciple Game, and the Dragon King Elf King, including Su Mingan and other Rovasha people, were all accidents and traversers in the Disciple Game. After all, their combat power was incompatible with the Disciple Game.

"You are the plot editor, which means..." Su Mingan suddenly understood and said, "The essence of the Disciple Game... is [a book]?"

If civilization is compared to a book, the growth and development of all things have their own framework and pages. Whichever page you turn to, a fixed plot will unfold, and its direction and ending are predetermined. But when Rovasha and the others came to the Disciple Game, the book went into chaos and the unknown.

The plot of a book is fixed, but a butterfly from outside the book, fanning waves among the words, will change the direction of the plot.

——Su Mingan always thought that in this disciple game, they, Luo Vasha, were the hosts, and the players of the 2021 version were the guests.

But is there a possibility that the players of the 2021 version are the protagonists of this Disciple Game, and they, Rovasha and others, are the "deus ex machina" who have intruded into the plot?
And now, someone has come to correct these intrusive time travelers.

"We don't have to go to war, I can promise you." Su Mingan said.

The young man looked at him in surprise.

"How about you show me the script and I'll help you revise the plot?" Su Ming'an said.

He understood that for the eleventh world, most things were "scripted" and written by the world tree or the gods. As long as the civilization strictly followed the "script", there would be no major mistakes. It was essentially the same as the gods of Yunshang City regulating the war in Praia.

"I only have the script for the second level." The young man looked fierce but easy to talk to. He threw a booklet to Su Mingan.

Su Mingan opened it and took a look:
……

[After the second level is opened, the protagonist Su Mingan and the supporting actor Noel search for the target in the floating city.

The little boy Qin Ze thought it would be profitable to follow Su Mingan, so he took the initiative to curry favor with him. However, just after they reached a cooperation, several people came to cause trouble.

These guys are villain players who are blinded by jealousy and want to take the title of the top player.

The two sides fought hand to hand.

During the battle, Qin Ze's skin was cut by the villain player's blade, and his blood dripped onto the mechanical floor.

At this moment, the mechanical floor began to wriggle and twist, and a kind-looking mechanical mother walked out of the twisted ground. She looked at the villains with pity, and amid their roars, she punished them for "offending the gods" and chopped them neatly into six pieces.

Seeing this scene, the protagonist Su Mingan remembered the setting in the world background:
"Low birth rate" implies that children should not be harmed. Qin Ze is a child, which means that child players are protected in this instance.

The villain gang was so scared that they quickly fled the scene.

Su Ming'an and the other two collected clues everywhere until they found a wall densely packed with parts. Su Ming'an came into contact with sticky green slime, which he carefully washed off.

After the three left, a middle-aged man quietly ate the mucus. He guessed that the mucus could allow him to establish a connection with the "Mechanical Mother Goddess" and become a more powerful player.

On the way, Su Mingan saved a little girl named Siyi, who was almost sent to the research institute in the inner city.

With Siyi's child identity, Su Ming'an and the other two arrived at the inner city, only to find that it was a huge arena. A mechanical mother goddess was waiting there. It turned out that she was the mastermind behind the scenes. And the middle-aged man who secretly ate the mucus was transformed by her into the "Guanyin of Childbirth"...】

……

Su Mingan finished reading the script.

"If I hadn't been there, this is what Xiao Su would have experienced." Su Ming'an said to himself: "Qin Ze would not have been kicked away by me, he would have successfully teamed up with Xiao Su. Si Yi would not have been left behind by Yamada Choichi to be taken care of, she would have been taken to the inner city... There are indeed big changes."

Su Mingan looked at the white-haired young man: "Where do you belong to?"

It was the World Tree that allowed Luovasa and the others to participate in the Disciple Game, but the white-haired young man regarded Luovasa and the others as intruders. This means that the white-haired young man does not belong to the World Tree.

"It has nothing to do with you." The white-haired young man said calmly, "Now, you leave the floating city and are not allowed to interfere with the protagonist's plot anymore."

"Okay." Su Mingan agreed and turned to walk out.

And at this moment——

While Su Mingan was relaxing his vigilance, the white-haired young man suddenly took action!
He didn't believe Su Mingan would give up, so he took the initiative.

However, Su Ming'an was just pretending to relax his vigilance. When he heard the wind behind him, he immediately drew his sword.

The voice of the God of War Dragon King sounded in time——

……

[How dare you! A mere plot editor dare to assassinate the Jellyfish Emperor! ]

[But the knife, I dodge it! ]

……

[You can choose "Dodge", please roll the dice. ]

[Required points: 10 points (points>10 points, dodge successfully. Points<10 points, dodge failed.)]

……

A twenty-sided dice appeared, and after being thrown, it landed on Su Mingan's knees. The number on it was -

……

【The number of points you threw: 3 points. 】

【Dodge failed.】

……

"Thorn--!"

There was a sound of a knife piercing flesh, Su Mingan's brows tightened, and he felt a sharp pain in his right shoulder.

The white-haired young man's combat power is probably over six thousand.

After succeeding in one blow, the man jumped in front of him, stretched out his left hand, slightly bent his five fingers, and tried to strangle Su Mingan's throat!
……

[I failed to dodge. No, it’s okay… I was just unlucky for a moment! ]

[How can the Jellyfish King be discouraged! Just wait and see how I fight back! ]

……

[You can choose "Dodge", please roll the dice. ]

[Required points: 10 points (points>10 points, dodge successfully. Points<10 points, dodge failed.)]

……

A twenty-sided dice appeared, and after being thrown, it landed on Su Mingan's knees. Su Mingan tilted his head back.

……

【The number of points you threw: 8 points. 】

【Dodge failed.】

……

"Crack!"

For a moment, Su Mingan felt as if he had returned to the Youth Exploration Club in college and encountered the scene of three consecutive "big failures" in the dice.

There was a choking feeling in his throat, and he was being held high by the throat.

"Feel sorry."

He heard the voice of the white-haired young man.

"You insist on interfering with the plot, so I can only..."

Swish.

The blade broke out of his body and blood foam gushed out of Su Mingan's throat.

The tip of the knife made a small cut on Su Ming'an's back. The white-haired young man reached a hand into Su Ming'an's chest and stirred it with his fingers for a few times, making a sticky sound, as if he was looking for something in his heart.

Su Mingan coughed a few times and blood dripped down his chin.

Half of his heart, as red as an apple, slipped out and slowly rolled to the ground, leaving a long red mark.

-

……

Su Mingan opened his eyes.

He lay on the clean and tidy bed.

"Awake?" A faint voice came from the side.

Su Ming'an's heart tightened and he looked sideways - a girl with waist-length white hair, holding a small white flower, was looking at him quietly in a wheelchair.

"I saw you lying in the outer city covered in blood, so I rescued you. You were fatally injured, which triggered the polyp form of the Turritopsis dohrnii. You should have recovered from the injury by now." Ashley reached out and touched his forehead.

Su Mingan glanced at the system time. It was 5:20 in the morning of the fourth day of the dungeon. He met the white-haired young man at 1 a.m. After being killed, he slept for about four hours and recovered his health thanks to the recovery ability of the Turritopsis dohrnii.

Seeing Ashley, the sickly girl, he felt uneasy.

"Hili, I'm not Si Que, I'm Su Liujin. If you have any hatred, don't direct it at me..." Su Ming'an sat up from the bed, intending to explain to Xili, but found that he could move freely without a trace of curse on his body.

Ashley tilted his head and looked at him, without a trace of hatred in his eyes:
"I don't hate you, what are you talking about?"

Su Mingan's words froze in his throat.

"Sorry, can I see your legs?" Su Mingan had to confirm one thing.

"Yeah." Ashley nodded, and she returned to her timid attitude, with the aggression in her eyes completely gone.

Su Mingan squatted down, put on gloves, and checked her legs. The ninth-level biochemical ability he obtained in the ruins world quickly allowed him to find that Xili's legs were indeed disabled and it was impossible for him to stand up. But before that, Xili stood up and cursed him.

"Xili, do you have any biological sisters?" Su Ming'an asked.
