Help, I've become a paper man

Once someone dies, they have to step down and become a backup. Song Yi had only seen this in e-sports before, and now it happens to Stardust.

The more he tasted it, the stranger it seemed, with an indescribable flavor.

Noah's Ark replied: "It's actually very simple. As I said earlier, when humans die, they will turn into stardust. This process is irreversible."

"Because after a human dies, the body cannot be resurrected. The "death" at that moment is included in the calculation. If we immediately restart, there is still a possibility of recovery."

"But if he died too early, the destruction value of the world at that time would not have reached the required amount, and it would not have reached the level of restart."

"Even if the next round starts over, they will have already died. After losing their bodies, they will continue to live as stardust."

Song Yi asked: "So, Stardust is really a punishment for failure?"

Noah's Ark fell silent and the world returned to peace.

Song Yi looked ahead and saw the barrier swaying gently, with traces of water waves appearing. The arc of its swaying was more rigid than normal before, and it was not far from returning.

The monster was still approaching, and its sharp claws were trying to get close to Song Yi from another angle.

He saw it all, but did not try to fight back. After all, time was fair, and he could not kill the opponent directly when he could not move.

Song Yi took two steps forward to create some distance between himself and him, ensuring that he would not be hit immediately after the time was restored.

Other than that, he was quiet, waiting for the system to respond.

Noah's Ark didn't seem to want to care, but seeing how stubborn Song Yi was, he still replied:

"No, Stardust was not created for you at the very beginning, and we didn't ask for your opinions."

"But the first batch of stardust were aware and willing. Those who died were unwilling to give up easily for the sake of this world."

"They want to keep fighting."

When Song Yi heard this, he felt something was wrong. He was the first to raise his hand and make a "stop" gesture, trying to stop the other party from speaking.

But this answer, to some extent, was his own request. Now that he doesn't want to hear it anymore, he hopes the system will shut up?

How can there be such a good thing!

Noah's Ark ignored him and continued speaking in a calm and orderly voice:

"In this case, they regard the identity of Stardust as a new opportunity to complete their unfinished work in this way."

"It may be a little unfair to you that you cannot choose your own path. The direction you are heading now has been chosen by someone else."

"But they also want to stop this and let more people survive."

Song Yi finally couldn't help it and said, "Stop for a moment. I just gave you face. That's enough."

"It does sound exciting, like a savior and a partner, but don't use moral blackmail on us."

"Don't even think about getting away with it. When answering questions, only answer half of them."

Noah's Ark replied: "The current situation is the best solution chosen by everyone after analysis on the road to saving the world."

Song Yi waved his hand, not afraid that the system wouldn't notice, and made a "stop" gesture, then continued:

"If you have the time, tell me first, why must the world we want to save be destroyed?"

"Because of the plane's setting? Do we need a savior here? That's impossible. With this kind of world view, no one can bring money into the group."

Song Yi felt more and more happy as he spoke. Ever since his memory came back, that happy feeling had also returned.

If he didn't remember that he had never done talk shows in his various experiences as a corporate slave, he would even think that this must be a talent.

Now, he believes that his "talent has not been discovered."

The situation was reversed and he started to speak freely, but Noah's Ark didn't buy it.

The system said, "I'm afraid I'll disappoint you. There's nothing special about it. It's not an evil invasion, nor is it an awakening. We are not heroes either."

"This is the most normal and reasonable situation, but the world is overloaded and can't bear it."

"The process of destruction is slow and steady. At the beginning, it was just an ordinary rain."

"It lasted for half a month, during which time the chain reactions caused by the rain also showed their power."

"From disaster to disaster, it started to change. Everything we did had feedback, but it was malicious."

Song Yi exhaled and stared at the barrier in front of him. At its original position, he could see a faint milky white color and obvious marks.

Looking at it now, it has become blurry, and now looks like both glass and candy wrapper.

The area in front of him became clearer and clearer, and was almost the same as what he saw with the naked eye.

The barrier was about to disappear, and he was about to return to reality...

Song Yi asked: "So, what you mean is that humans are asking for trouble and causing harm... like polluting the environment, so they are being punished?"

He tried to make a summary, but his words were not firm. After all, before this, he had just been thinking in a habitual way about the issues in the other world.

Now we are in a different world, or should we just use the “wrath of nature” approach to look at it, what if we are wrong?

After listening to this, Noah's Ark did not refute, but actually expressed affirmation with "maybe".

When Song Yi heard this, his heart sank a little. Generally, such situations would not have a happy ending in literary and artistic works.

But that’s it…

When his life and death were at stake, he had almost figured out what he was curious about. It was useless to dwell on the reasons now, so he might as well get down to business.

Song Yi thought about it again, and after hesitating to speak, he thought about it again, but couldn't help asking:

"I think I understand. I have one last question. When did I become Stardust? How many times have I lived now?"

Noah's Ark replied: "You died before the node when the disaster occurred, and your soul is stored in the Stardust Vault. This is your first awakening."

Song Yi fell silent. For a moment, his emotions became complicated. He didn't know whether he should breathe a sigh of relief or remain speechless.

After a few seconds, Song Yi said slowly: "Oh my God, if others knew that I have this kind of background, I should be careful when I go out in the future."

"If I accidentally pass by the vegetable market in the morning and the vegetable farmers see me, they will sigh..."

"Whose delicious food is this? It's so delicious! Oh, no, it's just too bad!"

The more Song Yi spoke, the more excited his tone became, and when he finished speaking, the tail end of his voice was still floating in the air.

But the barrier in front of him was broken first, and that half sentence was spread in all directions with the blowing wind.

Even if there are roars, friction sounds, collision sounds, and noisy noises...

It is still the leader, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

Even Yan Changyue who was standing next to him, couldn't see anything, but looked over in the direction of the sound, frowned slightly, and was obviously worried.

Song Yi didn't see it and didn't have time to look. When he came back, his mind was full of "shame". His hands moved quickly and he chopped off the monster's claws first.

Then, following his thinking and following the order of the surroundings, he chopped them down one by one.

This was also the realization of the previous idea, but the method was different from what he thought.

At least at the beginning, he was not prepared to show off in the form of red ears.
