Another Life: Elf Archer

When Nian Nian slowly opened her eyes, Qi Youfeng, who was sitting beside her bed, turned around.

Nian Nian yawned, closed his eyes and stretched out his hand, intertwined his fingers, pulled her, and held her in his arms.

"What time is it now?" Nian Nian asked in a mumble.

"It is said that we are almost at the exit of the underground waterway. It seems to have been a day or two, but it should be less than three days."

This cabin was a little dark. Qi Youfeng had been staying here all the time and had no sense of the passage of time. He could only make a rough estimate.

"You've always been here"

Nian Nian opened his eyes and found that Qi Youfeng's current posture seemed a little uncomfortable. He loosened his hand holding his arm and rubbed it against the bed. After the man lay down, he put his arm above his head. , put a pillow up, then moved the "pillow" down, and then found a comfortable position and hugged his waist.

Qi Youfeng was half leaning on the head of the bed. His right arm, which was suppressed by Nian Nian, bent inward, and Nian Nian pressed closer to her. He raised his hand to gently smooth her short hair.

"Well, I'm afraid you'll forget about me when you wake up, and plan to pretend to be your boyfriend to deceive you before pursuing me again." Qi Youfeng said with a smile.

Nian Nian pursed his lips and snickered, poking his chest: "Why are you chasing after you have already been deceived?"

"You have to go through the process completely." Qi Youfeng tugged on her ears.

Niannian thought of the joke she had made before and squeezed his waist angrily: "Then I will ask you to complete the process today and experience the feeling of an endless loop."

Qi Youfeng held Nian Nian's arm tighter and kissed her forehead: "Don't be afraid, as long as it's you, I will definitely be able to break the cycle of death."

Niannian quietly closed his eyes again. After a while, he felt a little sad: "It feels like I have seen my previous life. I feel a little sorry for that person."

Qi Youfeng thought for a moment and asked carefully: "For Mianmian?"

"Well," Nian Nian said no more, paused, and called softly, "Fran, can you hear me?"

A spot of light suddenly appeared in the dim room and fell on Nian Nian's raised fingertips: "Long time no see, Nian Nian."

"Yeah, long time no see," Nian Nian sighed, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "How are you, Mr. Pascal?"

""

The light flickered on and off, like a candle in the wind.

"He passed away."

After a few minutes of silence, Nian Nian smiled bitterly: "I finally checked the access point information he created for me. The identity at that time was still Gu Mianmian, but when I unlocked the file before, the identity information was changed to Nian Nian. .”

The only person who can modify this information is the creator Pascal.

The person who encrypted her information and designated her as the authority owner should also be Pascal.

Nian Nian's feelings for Pascal are very complicated, and apart from gratitude, there are also some other thoughts mixed in.

The process of replaying those memories is also a process of sorting out and understanding while remaining immersed in them.

In the past and now, he always understood that the person Pascal wanted to help and save was always the Gu Mianmian, the Gu Mianmian whose spirit and body were annihilated by her.

"Mr. Pascal has a message for you." Fran said, "After handling his funeral affairs, I will cut off contact."

Nian Nian nodded: "I understand."

Although this virtual world was created by citizens of country h, it does not belong to the property of country h. If no one opened a path to connect, it would be impossible for Fran to communicate with her like this.

Thinking of the person who opened the path, Nian Nian frowned and heard Fran's last words:

"Mr. Pascal said, cherish your own future."

After Fran left, Niannian seemed to be asleep, burying her head in his arms and motionless. Qi Youfeng did not disturb her, silently expressing comfort with gentle movements.

After a long time, someone knocked on the door. Nian Nian sat up, rubbed his red eyes, and watched Qi Youfeng open the door.

Qi Youfeng didn't invite anyone to come in. He turned sideways and let Niannian see Simil standing at the door.

"Come in," Nian Nian sat cross-legged on the bed, waved helplessly to Qi Youfeng, who was planning to avoid this place, and then looked at Simiel, "Hughes, right?"

Simil was shocked, but saw that Nian Nian didn't want to explain more, and went back to Qi Youfeng's arms, nodding to him:

"Thank you for your previous support, but I have no comment on what you want to know."

"Why?" Simil blurted out, a little excited.

He and Albert have been busy for so long, is this all in vain?

"There is no reason. Not only do I have no comment, I also advise you to think more carefully. It is best to take your own life in your own hands like me." Nian Nian replied lazily.

"What do you mean?" Simil frowned.

"It doesn't mean anything, it's just that things are kind to others," Nian Nian said with a faint smile, seeming to be older and more indifferent for a moment, "I feel sorry for your naivety."

Simil carefully looked at this year, which seemed to be a little different, and he generously let him look at it every year.

"I can't see your emotions anymore." Simil was discouraged.In the past, Nian Nian's expression was like a barometer, allowing people to easily read her mind.

"People always have to grow." He replied with the same smile every year.

"That's not true of you." Simil replied, taking a step forward, "And people who grow up will consider the pros and cons, and understand that the overall situation is the most important thing."

"Don't blame me," Niannian raised his eyebrows sideways, "First, I have no comment; second, I am selfish; third, let Albert connect to Fran again, I will waste all the energy Let’s solve the problem.”

Simil hesitated for a moment: "Are you really willing to take the initiative to cooperate with us to solve the problem?"

"Which of your ears heard that I am going to cooperate with you?" Nian Nian waved his hands impatiently, "I will handle this matter myself, otherwise I will just leave it like this. You make your choice."

Simil was a little uncomfortable with Nian Nian's sudden attitude of equality and even vague superiority. He was stunned for a while and then replied awkwardly: "I can't take the initiative to contact Albert. I have to wait for him to calm down and contact me."

After being taken away by Qi Youfeng every year, Albert angrily came to ask for help. Although it was temporarily stopped due to the intervention of the twins, he was obviously a little dissatisfied with Simil's self-assertion this time.

Simil understood his friend's thoughts.Albert also knew very well that once something was exposed, a person like Simil would inevitably be sent to the dissecting table. In comparison, he would rather send Nian Nian than his friend.

But Nian Nian also has friends. She even has more autonomy than Simil. Now it seems that she has more calmly accepted that she lives in a virtual world and is neither a biological person nor a complete person. The existence of data collections.

Simil counted his heartbeats and asked in a relaxed manner: "Niannian, you chose to upload your consciousness by yourself, right? You also operated it yourself."

So when these memories were restored, the confusion, hesitation and helplessness in Nian Nian all disappeared and turned into a kind of transparent and pleasant calm.

This was her own choice back then, so she had already weighed the pros and cons and accepted all the consequences.

"Yes," Niannian nodded and admitted with a smile, "and I was conscious throughout the entire process. I was neither hypnotized nor left the process and results to others."

Simil's increasingly violent heartbeat suddenly stopped, and his expression changed: "How do you know this?"

"It's not important. This is the second time I'm reminding you to keep your data in your own hands. Don't you appreciate my kindness?" Nian Nian asked with a smile.

"Thank you for your concern," Simil replied dryly. He seemed to have caught some clues from Nian Nian's kindness, but he couldn't express it clearly for the moment. "If Albert contacts me, I will let him come. Looking for you."

"No need," Nian Nian became more and more impatient, "Just ask Fran to find me. The communication efficiency between the two of us will be higher."

"But"

"Nothing but, you are too long-winded," Nian Nian said seriously, "As someone who has directly handled various things for Fran, your questioning is simply an insult to my character, do you understand?"

Simil was speechless, turned around and opened the door angrily, but heard Nian Nian casually admonishing:

"Don't be so disappointed. It's great to dedicate yourself to something for a while, but it's stupid to dedicate yourself to something all the time. The most important thing in the world is your own happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy."

Simil paused, stood at the door, looked at Nian Nian quietly, and replied: "You escaped in."

Nian Nian raised his eyelids and looked at him without speaking.

"Compared to being trapped in a cold machine and no longer needing the five senses of taste, smell, touch, etc., the reality here makes you indulge and addictive, doesn't it?"

"You are indeed a selfish person."

For example, Simil learned from Albert that all the efforts and investment in maintaining vitality, the experiments and efforts spent on her, were all burned by this willful little girl.

All she wanted was probably to take a bite of candy in the game, smell some flowers, and have skin-to-skin contact with a man like now.

The superficial and meaningless purpose ended up costing Pascal his life.

Suddenly, Simil had the urge to use something to pierce Nian Nian's indifferent expression:

"Pascal must have been desperate when he committed suicide."
