Devil's Playground

With the lessons learned from his compatriots, Ruoke did not dare to agree immediately, and bought himself some time on the grounds that he was not familiar with the situation on Earth.

The earth did not push.

What life forms like them lack most is time, and because of this, waiting is the last thing they care about.

But Rick wasn't just talking.

He knows that the earth will not let him go, he has already tried to escape, but the result of the attempt tells him that the earth has laid a net, and escape is impossible.Even if they escape from the earth, there is still a sun on it.As long as the earth greets the sun, his soul will be gone, and his bones will be gone.

So Ruk honestly studied the situation on the earth, trying to figure out the temperament and preferences of the earth.

Such research eventually transferred to humans.

The earth doesn't hate humans, otherwise it would not allow them to reproduce to the point where they are now, and even alien species are under its command; but it doesn't like it very much, otherwise it would not bet against them and that compatriot, and it would not be in a bad mood Make a catastrophe every now and then, watch them perform.

For the earth, whether it is human beings or other creatures, they are all its toys.

As far as the current situation is concerned, it is not tired of these toys yet, just expecting them to bring it more surprises.

Seeing this clearly, Rick had an idea.

And thus the Playground was born.

This idea was taken from the creativity of human beings, and the earth's response was as satisfactory as Ruker predicted.

After the foreshadowing was ready, Rick started further negotiations with the earth.

For example, the human soul.

As for why only the souls of the dead are needed instead of living people, Rick's explanation to the earth is that he does not want to destroy the existing state of the earth and cause panic in the human world, and the construction of the game field is a process from scratch. Do some exploratory experiments first.

Of course Rick wouldn't lie, he just didn't give the whole answer.

His real goal is to kill two birds with one stone, and use the opportunity of studying the human soul to study the method of destroying the living body.

In fact, such a way of lying is not clever, but fortunately, the earth doesn't care about it, it quickly meets Ruk's request, and draws a space in the center of the Pacific Ocean for Ruk to collect souls and build a game field.

Ruker cherishes this opportunity very much, but it is inevitable that he is walking on eggshells while working hard.

The earth is really too moody, and this is the first time for Rick to meet this kind of guy who looks soft and easy to overthrow, but is actually soft and hard, and even turns his face like a book.

Worst of all, he can't beat this guy, and he can't.

Of course, the last point is the key.

However, at this time, he was no longer in a hurry to escape.

Rick had survived worse, and this setback, which hadn't done any damage, wasn't going to break him now.

But plan ahead, just in case there is still one behind.

So Rick built two playgrounds.

One for the earth and one for yourself.

The former is located on the earth, and the latter is far outside the solar system.

The two game fields are connected through a space tunnel secretly opened by Rick, and the opening of this tunnel also made Rick realize that the origins of the planets in the solar system have a very crude and careless cognition of time and space, which is simply full of loopholes, and this may be the only one here. It is related to the inability of intelligent creatures to set foot in space.

In short, the earth did not notice the appearance of the space tunnel, and after confirming this, Rick started his real plan.

He sneaked into another game field through the space-time tunnel, and from there issued an assembly order that was slightly lower than the signal for help, luring the empire to come and investigate.

Although the waiting time was relatively long, the empire finally sent investigators.

Then, the playground was discovered naturally.

Ruker is very clear about what the empire needs, and the source of soldiers is one of them, especially qualified, excellent, and outstanding soldiers.

In order to support the central galaxy, the empire needs huge resources, which is why the empire continues to expand, invade, and occupy.

However, the number of life forms is rare and limited, and those that are strong enough to directly participate in battles are even rarer. Primary life forms without special abilities and unable to build domains are not as useful in actual combat as a biological soldier with supernatural powers.In addition, powerful life forms are not the primary targets of resource supply. They may—just maybe—contribute in the battle to invade the planet, but they will never waste time and energy on stationing after the war.

From pre-war preparations to post-war management, the real main force can only be biological soldiers, but it is not so easy to cultivate a qualified, excellent, or even outstanding soldier.The Imperial Diet had proposed countless plans, but none of them were satisfactory.

Playgrounds may be the first.

At least one that would interest them.

As it turned out, Rick was right about what the Empire needed.

Soon after the investigators appeared, more members of the empire also came to the game field outside the solar system, preparing to take over here.

To Rick's surprise and delight, the person who came to take over the game field turned out to be a small team composed of living organisms. As long as there are no accidents, his plan can be realized beyond expectations.

But the vast universe is never short of surprises.

It didn't take long for another group of game field managers to arrive, including the wing he had just thrown away cruelly.

Well, it's not just "just now".

Ruk calculated the time and found that it was already a hundred light-years ago.

To make matters worse, Rick found his soul stirring like a shark smells blood and a wolf sees raw meat.

Fortunately, he can still control himself, because he is not yet fully prepared, and the most critical step in the plan has not been completed.

A verification of feasibility.

Just when Rick was hesitating whether to restore the old relationship with Yi, and at the same time thinking about how to verify whether his plan could be realized, Yi provided him with the most crucial help.

a medium.

Of course Wing doesn't realize this, at least not properly.

Wing thought that he was trapped in a certain place and could not escape, so according to the hypothesis they had discussed together, he selected a gene owner with balanced attributes from the humans sent from the earth, and prepared a living body for Rick in the game field. coordinates, allowing him to create a teleportation channel after searching for this coordinate.

Although Rick didn't need this channel, but this living body coordinates gave him a lot of inspiration, allowing him to finalize the next action plan——

Portal plan.

In fact, this plan can also be called the ultimate imprisonment.

Its main purpose is to solidify the soul of the living body, making it lose the ability to move freely, and confine it in a narrow area like being imprisoned to be slaughtered.

By the way, since the soul itself is a kind of pure energy, the solidified soul stone has become a new type of energy source, allowing this game field outside the solar system to still operate normally after being completely separated from the game field of the earth.

The administrators who were sent to take over the game field thought they were going to the solar system, but in fact, their real location was more than one hundred and eight thousand miles away from the solar system.

Yi, who is most sensitive to space, seems to be aware of this, but it only seems to be.

Because Tsubasa wasn't honest with the other administrators.

When Rick finally appeared in the game field here, signed a cooperation contract with the medium provided by Yi, and started a formal feasibility test, Yi did not expose his existence, but helped him do a lot of aftermath work to avoid Opened to the attention of other administrators.

By this time, Rick had come to believe that Tsubasa really loved him.

But what makes Rick heartbroken is that he can only continue to use Wing.

He is really heartbroken!

Although, he already lost his mind.

Really no more.

Everything went well. After completing the feasibility test, Rick finally waited for a chance to leave the game field and go to other planets to perform missions.

Rick immediately seized the opportunity to cross over from the game field on the other side of the earth and cut off the space-time channel between the two game fields.In this way, he not only fulfilled his promise to the earth-leaving it with fun, but also escaped from the clutches of the earth-even the stars cannot pursue the enemy in another space-time system.

But why do you have to wait for the wings to leave?In theory, it is because Yi's time and space manipulation ability will hinder his next plan.He wants to use space teleportation, which is the most difficult state to defend, to set up traps and complete the transformation of souls into soul stones.If Wing stays in the game field, he who is extremely sensitive to spatial changes is likely to see through this trap and make his plan fall short.

But even if he didn't see through, Rick didn't want Yi to turn into stone.

It would be a pity if such a sweet, seductive, evocative soul should be turned to stone.

Even if Wing was from the race he hated the most, even if he approached him out of malice, he still didn't want him to be affected by this revenge, and he didn't want him to change his way of being.

Rick doesn't deny his nostalgia for Yi, but he just doesn't deny it to himself.

Of course he loves him, whether he really loves him or not, but there is no need to publicize such a thing that is neither beneficial nor meaningful.

It is enough for him to know, and Yi does not need to know.

However, he still wanted Wing to know.

This may be why he made a copy of himself and sent it to Yi.

Find Wing, do what you want.

This is the only instruction left by Rick to the dungeon.

So, the copied him really did what he wanted to do the most——

Feel the wings in the most pleasant way.

When Rick learned from the mouths of two humans that his copy had actually resonated with Yi, he finally felt the long-lost feeling of regret.

Tsubasa, who already knew the truth, would never forgive him, Rick can be sure.

If the time was reversed, he might change his way, at least modify that damn freedom order.

It is a pity that time can jump but cannot be reversed, and there has never been a real if in the vast universe.

He can only accept the reality, say goodbye to Yi, and say goodbye again.

Fortunately, his plan succeeded, and nearly two hundred life forms were transformed into soul stones by him, including a high-level life form, one of the four administrators sent to take over the game field.

Although there were still a few flaws in the process, such as Yi's early return, a certain human god who looked a little like him came up with a destructive task that was directly released to the toy terminal.

But his plan succeeded in the end, and Yi, who was smart, keen, and as rational as him, quickly discovered the crisis hidden in the game field, so he decisively withdrew from the game with a hole card that could exempt himself from responsibility.

In fact, Yi's departure was also part of Rick's plan.

Wing will definitely bring the Playground data back to the Empire, and the Empire will definitely build another Playground within the Central Galaxy.If the empire copied his game field exactly, or found no fatal flaws hidden in the game field, then he could re-interpret what happened in the last game field and save more lives. body into a soul stone.

What will the Empire do with these Soul Stones?

Do you want to try to restore them, or simply use them as a new energy supply?

Rick is looking forward to the selection of the Senate and Parliament.

Of course, such things don't have to be left to Yi to complete, he can actually leave him, at least he can try this way.

But he still didn't do that after all, he just turned regret, anger, remorse, sadness... these complex emotions into a grand fireworks to see him off.

He tampered with another administrator's spaceship, causing the spaceship to disintegrate the moment it left the game field.

He could have done the same to him too.

But he didn't.

Goodbye, Wing.

We will see each other eventually.

The next moment after sending Yi away, Rick made a decision.
