The puppets' stage play

"I'm a kid again..."

"Who am I? I have always had this doubt in my mind since then. As my memory gradually recovered, I thought of a certain question..."

The old boy's eyes suddenly burst out with intense brilliance, and the surrounding technologically-minded young and girls also looked at Yan Sheng.

"How long have we lived?"

"I am the first baby born in a new era, or a remnant of a past era."

“我在1013年1月3日出生过，但我还记得我在1026年6月8日出生过”

"Mayor Yan, I hugged you when you were a child. When you successfully established your career, you also baptized babies, including me."

Yan Sheng smiled indifferently, ignoring the other stunned people, smiling a little nostalgically.

"The more experiences you have, the deeper your memories become, and the more boring you become."

"So I gave up that boring experience. I wanted to live a good life from birth to death and no longer stay in the distance. I gave up my responsibilities."

"I study hard, work hard, and get away from you sinkers. From now on, I treat my fellow travelers kindly, respect my subordinates, and sometimes even maliciously suppress some of my descendants. I am much happier than your game!"

"Yeah..." The young man lowered his head and muttered, and his dull face gradually came to life.

"That's right. Although I haven't remembered all the memories yet, I think this is the right thing for you to do."

"On the 24th, I will give you one last helping hand. Please give me a hand!"

"Okay, Boss No. 1"

"Follow your orders~"

There was a lot of noise among the boys and girls around them, as if no one was around. The boys bent one hand in a salute, while the girls bent their bodies and waved their skirts in salute.

No. 1 looked around, the smile on his face getting deeper and deeper.

They are all their past partners and comrades-in-arms. In order to build their home and keep certain secrets, they chose to die and be reborn in the virtual world after death.

Recalling the past while constantly dying, but it will be different from now on.

"Yan Sheng! I wish you a wonderful life and don't run away from life. No matter you win or lose, it will be a rare experience."

"The role simulation game has come to an end. The dead should not exist and affect reality."

"This is your final role choice. We will forget everything in the past and live as the original owners from now on."

"Goodbye then, world."

Light spread from the boy, and the laughing boys and girls also burst out with light, forming a white mist that covered other people in shock, including the safety team members, the mayor's building, and the area continued to extend.

The figures in gray robes were still in shock. They ran away quickly when they saw the scene, but they could not escape the white mist. The gray robes on their bodies fell apart, revealing various monsters of different shapes. They were swallowed up one by one while screaming.

Yan Sheng knew in his heart that it was indeed them, but he couldn't help but close his eyes. The corners of his eyes were sore. The memories he had just recalled in his mind were gradually fading away, and the traces of the past were being erased.

"Goodbye No. 1, my comrade..."

Thinking came to a standstill, and white mist enveloped everything.

As Gong Shoucheng walked on the road, he was a little confused about the oncoming white mist, which quickly enveloped him before he could think about it carefully.

Qi Xiu paused solemnly in the distance, his eyes glowing with dark blue light, his face full of fear, and the white mist was raging in the distance, extending in all directions.

That was not white mist, but actually some kind of particles, eating away at everything in the past. His heart was filled with shock. It was planet-level technology, how could it appear here.

All things in the world reach the same goal through different paths. Although the higher the technology, the harder it is to improve, it is not a civilization that has come to an end.

Albino particles appear like streaks of white mist, but they are actually a cleaning tool.

It has various uses, including memory extraction, reality rewriting, species elimination, and civilization reconstruction. It can even establish an ecosystem and recreate civilization in a world that lacks various basic elements.

Gentle yet cruel, it once wiped out all living things in a star field in a short period of time, turning it into a dead place. It was not until four million years later that the first glimmer of life sprouted again.

Countermeasures: Only a strong person of at least eighth level can take action to suppress the opponent's devouring force. Those below him should run away!

Qi Xiu took a deep breath, his eyes serious, ready to run away at any moment.

Fortunately, the white mist only paused for more than ten minutes in the inner ring of the floating light area, and then disappeared, like a dream.

The white mist disappeared, Gong Shoucheng frowned slightly, and felt that there was nothing strange about his body, so he walked again.

Qi Xiu waited calmly for another ten minutes before taking the first step. His expression was extremely cautious. His feet landed silently. He took a breath and moved forward slowly.

Don't hesitate when encountering problems, seek verification carefully and explore boldly so as not to miss the opportunity.

Someone's teaching flashed through his mind, and he couldn't help but nod.

A house made of steel, with no door on the outside and darkness in the depths. Kang Tainian stood quietly in the distance. In front of his sight was Qingjing Academy's final back-up - the No. 0 'Catalogue'.

A bright ball floated in the air, and mechanical sounds came from it.

"Weapon No. 6 Albino Particles - codenamed White Mist has been discontinued, and the memories of everyone present have been erased. As a price, most of the 'reincarnations' have lost their minds and are on the verge of destruction."

"Can we force them to be used again? After all, they are one of our 'weapons'" Kang Tainian looked cold and his words were cruel.

"The reincarnator chooses to self-destruct based on his own will. There is only a little energy left. Will it be activated again?"

"...Delete part of the memory and re-enable it. After all, they are the last guardians of human consciousness." Kang Tainian's eyes flickered, and in the corner of the memory was the resolute back of a certain man.

"Note, the accumulation over the years is only enough to cover a part of the area. Accumulation again may not have the same effect today. Is the launch confirmed?"

"...No. 1 did not recall his true memory after all. You must know that he is the proposer of this plan."

Kang Tainian shook his head. After all, it was just some remnants of the past. It was neither the past person nor worthy of nostalgia. His expression changed and he looked at the 'catalogue' coldly.

"Are you sympathizing with them? Or do you not recognize my position as dean? Immediately implement the order, 'Directory'! With my authority as 'dean'!" His expression became more and more cruel.

"...It has been implemented, please indicate the next order."

"Stand by, waiting for orders"

"Yes." The sphere became dim and fell into the deep hole below the ground. The hole closed silently, and the floor was covered with countless layers of steel plates.

Kang Tainian nodded. There was more than one such place. The 'directory' could be moved to any location. Except for the dean, no one knew where the other party was.

"There are fewer and fewer old friends from the past, but the future of mankind will never be interrupted in my hands!" Kang Tainian said in a low voice, with a firm tone, and then the figure disappeared into the darkness.

"...A congressman said that it's because the games are not fun anymore or the idols are not good-looking. I think he is right or wrong."

There was a burst of laughter from the crowd, and the atmosphere gradually eased. Congressman Han upstairs touched his nose with a strange look in his eyes.

Yan Sheng was in a daze, as if he had said these words before, but...when?

The onlookers were waiting for the follow-up speech, but Yan Sheng fell quietly silent. He looked a little dazed. The guards around him stepped forward to express their condolences worriedly. Yan Sheng's eyes were fixed, and he smiled and stretched out his hand to stop others' movements.

He clasped his hands behind his back, feeling both nameless sadness and some strange warmth in his heart.

What's strange is that the crowd of onlookers is not as angry as before, the atmosphere is somewhat warm, and the gray-robed figures have long since disappeared silently.

"We will solve all your worries, let you freely pursue your dreams, seek happiness virtually, let go of your worries while worshiping others, and provide you with the necessary monthly living expenses."

"But you have stood here to oppose us recently. I feel very sad. What is sad is not your opposition, but your blind submission to other people's opinions!"

"Don't let the slander block your vision, think with your own brain, I, Yan Sheng, am by no means such a bad person, just for my sake, please trust me again, I will definitely solve it to everyone's satisfaction!"

"I'll set a deadline, three days!"

"If I don't solve the problem within three days, I will voluntarily resign. I hope everyone will believe me this time!" Yan Sheng lowered his head and spoke very solemnly.

"Ah, forget it, I'm going to cook for the children."

"It's annoying. I made people lose their lipstick. It's very expensive!"

"I have to go to work tomorrow, go home and have a good rest."

The housewives, girls, and coolies did not express their understanding. They just retreated temporarily and waited for the follow-up treatment. The rest of the crowd had no choice but to agree and go home.

The traveler pulled up his hood, with a smile on his lips, turned around and left, raising his hand high and swinging it left and right, saying goodbye to someone.

Yan Sheng raised his head and saw the departing traveler at the first glance. He subconsciously moved his steps, but the guards whispered and heard the news. He understood clearly in his heart that he was the mayor and needed to take charge of the overall situation here.

He thanked him with a smile, saying it was nothing. In the corner of his eye, the figure of the traveler was getting farther and farther away.

Yan Sheng returned to the mayor's building. He still had many things to deal with and couldn't stay here. More importantly...

There was a sound of blessing passing through my mind, fleeting, and then forgotten.

First he must be a good mayor!

Among the dispersed crowd, a few people came upstream, some were bright, some were handsome, some were charming, some were beautiful, seven in total.

Qi Xiu looked at the others and silently entered the mayor's building one by one. They needed to conduct the final assessment.

Gong Shoucheng smiled warmly, with a springy look on his face, and walked unusually calmly. Qi Xiu glanced at him, his expression unchanged.

However, several people at the lower end of the ranking flocked away.

Kang Tainian looked straight and walked very steadily, walking on a smooth ground. The surroundings were spotless, and white swept everything.

He walked deep into the room, knocked lightly on the door, and pushed it open without waiting for a response.

The thin old man lying in the hospital bed was dressed in loose clothes, lying on a white bed with his eyes closed.

There is a transparent film on the outside of the white bed, and the liquid that is not used for treatment floats inside, and then penetrates into the body. The long oval ball is bound in the central space by the white bandage flying out of thin air.

"Teacher, I'm here," Kang Taiyan called out, the teacher he respected and feared.

The old man opened his eyes, his eyes particularly sharp.
