Before the sunset, the guide brought the new tasker to the 24th floor.

The people walking beside him were also wearing the white uniforms that belonged to the traversers.He has a handsome and elegant appearance, but he has a pair of blood-red eyes that make people frightened.The temperament of the new missionaries is extremely cold, and they reject people thousands of miles away.

The guide had not seen this quester before.All he knew was that this person had come to the control center a few days ago.Today the supervisor found him and asked him to take the newcomer to the 24th floor.

Did not say what to do.The guide guessed that he was a new resident on the 24th floor.

Those who can live on the 24th floor are all the most advanced traversers.The guide thought, maybe this new missioner has something special, or has some connection with the highest level.

Finally, the 24rd floor arrived.

"This is the 24th floor of the main building, and it is also the most advanced residence in the entire base." The guide said, "Don't look at them as just doors. In fact, the dormitories inside are all transformed according to the owner's idea. As long as you want, you can even open the door and see a castle. Do you know No. 9? I know him very well, and he conjures a Versailles palace here, and he opens parties in it every day..."

The guide tried to liven up the atmosphere, but the newcomer's expression was still indifferent, which made him a little awkward, and stopped his dry laugh.

"So, those who can live here are not ordinary people." Although the newcomer was extremely indifferent, the guide kindly reminded him, "Although I don't know why you were assigned here when you first came, but Those who can live here are single-digit traversers, each of them has a weird temper and is very difficult to mess with. Try to get along well with your neighbors..."

As he was talking, he saw a person coming out of the very front room.The man was dressed in an apricot-yellow suit with a plain expression.When passing by the two of them, he simply smiled at them.

"...The one passing by just now is No. [-], a hand controller." After No. [-] left, the guide whispered, "It is said that he used to be a musician, and was framed and destroyed his hands. He is very fond of his hands. I care, but don't mention it to him..."

"Is he number three?"

The newcomer who hadn't spoken all day finally spoke.The guide nodded and said, "Yes..."

The newcomer did not give his number, and the guide only knew that he lived on the 24th floor.He then said: "In this case, you also know your number, right? 24 is the beginning, followed by two digits is your number. For example, No. 2403 lives in [-]. You go to the room, don't go to the wrong door, don't Remember the wrong number, of course, even if you remember wrongly, you won’t be able to open the door, if you meet the bad-tempered No. [-], you may be beaten up by her..."

The usher didn't expect to get any answers from the newcomer.Coming to the end of this thankless conversation, he rubbed the pimple on his arm and was about to leave.At this moment, he heard the newcomer whisper: "I can't remember wrong."

"Just don't make a mistake."

The guide thoughtlessly wanted to go downstairs, but when he approached the elevator entrance, he glanced back.It was evening now, and the setting sun shone on the corridor through the window, and the figure of the newcomer was shrouded in the twilight.At that moment, for some reason, he felt that he was a little lonely.

He stopped unconsciously.He saw the young man walking down the corridor, and for some reason, a sentence rolled out of his mouth.

"You don't live here, do you?" he said, "You told me you were going to come to the 24th floor, but you don't look like you are moving to a new house..."

The youth stopped in front of a room.

The setting sun illuminates the metal "2405", 24th floor, number 5.

2411, 2410, 2407... He passed many doors similar to it, with numbers written on them, which looked like cloned twins.

But in the end it only stopped in front of this door.

He held the doorknob, and the door lock recognized his identity and made a "click", a crisp opening sound.

"I'm here to find someone." He said to the empty room.

Room No. 5 is very empty, there is no Palace of Versailles in it, and there are no mansions and waterside pavilions.It was not even as good as the mansions they had lived in in other worlds, without rich carpets or gold and silver jewels.

Not to mention those luxurious decorations that he was lying on his knees and coquettishly asked him to add.

It was a pure white room, a bed, a sofa, a table, a bathroom, nothing more.At the far end of the room are floor-to-ceiling windows that cover an entire wall.After the young man looked carefully, he realized that it was not a floor-to-ceiling window.

Just a screen playing twilight scenes.

It was such a pale and barren room.

It is such a simple furnishing.

He sat on the bed, the bed was against the walls on both sides, the mattress was soft.The room is small and well-furnished everywhere.

Sitting on the bed, you can see every position in the room clearly, and any vision will not escape your eyes, but will be fully visible.When you raise your eyes, you can also see a huge virtual screen, which is a fake scenery or a video of the strategy.

People who live in such a room feel very insecure, right?That's why he needs a small space to wrap him around, so that he can see everything, or seem to be imprisoned.

It turned out that this was Lucian's room.When he is in his arms, he loves to laugh, make love and act coquettishly, complaining about the unglamorous furnishings, the uncomfortable mattress, the understuffed wardrobe, and the undelicate vases... It turned out that when he lived by himself, he never needed it. these things.It turned out that when he could arrange whatever he wanted, he made his life so barren and boring.

That's not what he needs, is it?He just wants to agree to his request.No matter how boring, trivial, and absurd those requests are.When he was alone, he could only be wrapped in his own small room, but in that world, he was already wrapped by a person named Vader.Those packages come from those coquettish questions that are either sincere or false, but can always be answered.

In fact, Lucian is also a fool who is not much better than him in terms of feelings, right?Although the crystal nucleus has not been opened yet, Vader has been able to piece together Lucian's past from the auspicious feathers of memory.Due to those pasts, Lucian did not have the ability to love others like a normal person. The identity of a time traveler gave him a new identity and self-esteem. He could not feel that he was being loved through a little positive motivation like ordinary people.Therefore, he always relies on bullying him and provoking him to get more and more intense emotions.

To sense... more emotion from Vader, directed at him.

He needs a lot of love, lots and lots of love to wrap him up.Only in this way can he become cute and gentle, and be able to smile happily like those who have not been hurt.

"Actually, Lucian..." the system said in his mind, "is a very insecure person. He needs a lot of reactions, a lot of tolerance, and a lot of emotions to confirm his existence."

"Ah."

"So this is his room. 2405 is no different from other ordinary rooms. 2405 is just a number that seems to be fished out of an assembly line. Vader, he has always refused to admit that he is very afraid of loneliness and boring."

The young man turned his head, and he seemed to see No. [-] sitting beside him, hugging his knees, looking at the screen.Number Five watched all the pictures of the strategy flash before his eyes, or just watched the fictional scenery on the screen.He stared blankly, watching the absolutely safe images under his control until he fell asleep.

The young man touched his hair with his hand, and the illusion disappeared.He only touches air.

"It's not an assembly line." The young man said, "No."

There are many 2405, 2406, 2405 in this world, in the eyes of everyone, it is just a very common number.

He said to the illusory shadow in his heart.

But you don't know, from now on, the number 2405 is different from all numbers in my eyes.

Because it belongs to you.

2405 did not give you, but you gave... 2405.

He leaned on the bed and closed his eyes, tracing the number again in his mind.Even the simple numbers are also colored.

A color that only belongs to Lucian.

There was Lucian's breath in the room, he finally found the real Lucian here.

Vader closed his eyes and opened the blue crystal nucleus.

……

"It stands to reason that after forcibly breaking away from the system, the soul of the tasker will dissipate."

Vader stood on the top balcony of the control center, and Two stood beside him.She looked at the setting sun in the distance, her fingertips were bright red.

"However, luckily, before this punishment mission, Lucian had achieved the consummation of all missions. His soul was strengthened to the most perfect moment, so this prevented him from dissipating. But it is inevitable , His soul has also been extremely damaged."

"What are the consequences?"

"His mutilated soul will be reincarnated on different creatures in different worlds again and again. He will experience his life as these creatures. If he is lucky, his soul will be repaired a little every time he lives. In the process During the process, his soul will be nourished, restored, or completely dissipated—who can say for sure? But with the tenacious and mean vitality of No. [-], it should be restored." No. [-] said.

Vader nodded gently, "Thank you."

"You're welcome. You'd better be prepared first. With the incompleteness of his soul, he can't even be mentally handicapped at the beginning. Maybe he can only become an animal, or even a plant or a pot of grass. If I were If it’s yours, I won’t look for it, it’s too difficult to find a tree in the vast sea of ​​people.” No. [-] winked at him and said, “And maybe you can’t find him, maybe his soul has dissipated He lied to you when he said he would come back."

Vader said, "Then how can I confirm that he is him?"

"You will have a slight feeling, but it is also difficult to find, after all, there are hundreds of millions of small worlds. For the sake of being colleagues with number five before, let me leave a note for you." Number two said, "His soul will tend to possess the things or creatures he is impressed with, or, it also includes the world he has traveled through."

Vader took the information down.When he turned around, number two was leaning on the balcony, and suddenly said: "number five is stupid, isn't he? In the past he always said that being trapped in love is a very stupid thing, but now it's his turn."

When Vader looked back at her, he saw the girl giggling: "But if you take away his time traveler status and don't go to him, he should be pissed to death, right? Seriously, I really want to Look at the way Number Five is deflated. He was mean to you at first, wasn't he?"

"Lucien just needs... a lot of things, that's all." Vader smiled, his cold face seemed to be melted by the setting sun, "For example, now..."

"He needs me, go find him."

Number two was startled.She watched Vader's figure disappear on the rooftop.After a long time, she covered her eyes and couldn't help laughing, "I've done my best, number five."

After that, Two didn't see Vader for a long time.

Before returning to the control center, with the help of Lucian, Vader has become the god of creation.For this kind of power beyond logic, the control center has nothing to do with him.He refused to accept his own number, and he did not allow others to take over "Number Five".The only good thing is that he was not interested in blowing up the control center, but spent a very long time traveling through thousands of small worlds.

Someone said he was looking for someone.

But it is not easy to find a "person" without a human form.They only saw him teleporting in different worlds, passing through spring, summer, autumn and winter, mountains and rivers, but returning in vain.In the beginning, some people secretly set up a bureau, guessing when this powerful traverser would end his journey.Later, they forgot about the traveler and lost interest in him.

But he is still looking for it.

Number Two almost forgot about it.Until one day, she came back from her own small world and found a little unusual light spot while exploring a world.

It was a slight anomaly, and Number Two didn't take it to heart.But soon, she heard the news that Vader was going to enter this world.

He said he found it here.

Out of curiosity, Number Two followed up the world.She walked through the jungle, wondering what Lucian had become.

Until she saw Vader at the end of the forest.Vader was wearing a black dress, standing next to a flowering tree.

It was raining heavily, and he was actually holding an umbrella for the flower tree.
