Homecoming through online games

======================

The date of formation was set in three days.

Academician Liu approached Ye Mu and asked him if he needed to avoid it for a while - it is currently uncertain whether the Tianyan Bagua Formation will cause damage to the host of the demon seed.Ye Mu said without hesitation that he would be on the sidelines.

The elder stared at him for a few seconds, and Ye Mu felt that he had probably been guessing.

But Liu Jiande didn't ask anything in the end.He solemnly said: "Without your help, everything would not have gone so smoothly. You have saved many lives. I am always grateful for your presence." He held out his hand to Ye Mu and said, "Except for the relationship at work , maybe you would like to be...friends with me?" He said the last two words slowly and carefully.

Ye Mu and him looked at each other, reached out to shake hands, and said: "Of course. You have helped me a lot all the time. Thank you."

All this would not have gone so smoothly. It was Academician Liu who tried his best to block all the spies and suspicions behind him, and gave him the greatest trust and freedom within the scope of his authority.

He has always fulfilled the promise in the original message.

Ye Mu took two days off and returned to his hometown.

He rented an unremarkable scooter from a local car dealership, drove for more than an hour, and stopped at the edge of a village.

After the popularization of vaccines, the order of life in various places has gradually recovered, but due to source pollution, the planting industry in most areas is still at a standstill.Coupled with the horror rumors about demons, densely populated areas are still a little popular, and a village like this can't help but look a bit desolate.

It is now lunch time, and there is no one at the entrance of the village.

Ye Mu didn't get out of the car, closed his eyes, and released his perception.

The memory of home when he was young has been blurred, and he only remembers a big jujube tree in the yard.When the dates are ripe, the elder brother will take him to beat them and eat them.Later, for the convenience of my elder brother's schooling, they moved to the town to rent a house to live in, and he never came back here since then.

The pair of parents who abandoned him had come to him to recognize their relatives when he was an adult, but after being coldly denied by him, they never appeared again.He also didn't care where the family went.

He found the old house that gradually coincided with the scene in his memory.It looked like it hadn't been lived in for a long time, showing a dilapidated appearance.The jujube tree in the yard withered and fell down in the dark, crushing half of a beam.Some small insects are living rustlingly under the jujube tree.

He "watched" the scene silently for a moment, and as "Ye Mu", he made a wordless farewell to the past.

Withdrawing his senses, starting the car, he left the village behind.

The second place he went was an orphanage.

The old dean had passed away a few years ago, so he sent a bouquet of flowers to the grave, and then stood outside the orphanage for a while.Listening to the children's play, I went to a nearby bank and remitted all the deposits to the account of the orphanage.

The third location is in another city.An old residential building.Ye Mu still remembered the uneasy feeling when he walked in here.

It was dark now.Lights were turned on in every house.

Ye Mu stood downstairs, staring at one of the windows lit with warm orange lights, lost his mind for a while.

The family that later adopted him had nothing to blame for him.He also felt warm and caring when he first arrived.But at that time, he was very defensive and difficult to get close to.Also did not develop much affection to come from beginning to end.Later, they had their own children again, and the relationship became even more indifferent.Between two children, emotional and material preference is inevitable.Anyway, they raised him until he was admitted to college, so that he didn't have to struggle to survive before then.He remembered this kindness.

He took out a student loan and went to college in a different place, and he came back several times after that.The room he used to live in has long been repurposed for his own use, and every time he comes back, the atmosphere at home is a bit awkward, as if he is receiving guests.The younger brother below was unavoidably arrogant when he was a child, but when he grows up, he is much restrained, but his attitude is also lukewarm.The family had no demands or expectations of him.After a few times, he didn't come back anymore, but just remitted a red envelope with just the right amount every year and festival.

Apart from him, they are a complete family.And now, he also has a new family.

He thought, there is no need to meet this time.

The next day he arrived in yet another new city.The university has resumed normal teaching, and the dead trees on the campus have been tied with colored flowers made of colored paper, wool, and silk.He had expected some violent emotional ups and downs in this place.But when he looked at those youthful students, what he suddenly thought of was: I don't know what Jiang Wang looked like when he was a teenager?

Realizing this, he laughed a bit, turned and left without any regrets.

In the end, he returned to his home in T City, wrote a will, and left the ownership of the house to his adoptive parents.After disposing of some personal items in the house, and booking a return ticket, he logged into the online game "Wolf Smoke".

If the Tianyan Eight Diagrams Formation is activated successfully, it may connect to the other world of the game again.For this reason, during this period of time, he read as much as possible within the scope of authority of the research institute's research materials on lark fruit, demons, and source quality.If there is a chance at that time, he hopes to pass these memories and the game background history of "Wolf Smoke", as well as the information about the Tianyan Bagua Formation and the information about the demon priest to the "Ye Mu" in the other world. A gift from another "me".Although things may not go as smoothly as he planned, it is always good to be fully prepared.

As for the summer that was still lying in the military hospital, he didn't intend to do anything to him.The grievances of one world are handed over to the people of one world to settle.Even if this ignorant Xia Tian is killed, it won't affect that demon priest in another world, it's just to vent his anger.

When watching "Ye Mu" travel through, he once sensed four transmission points in the other world of the game.The two o'clock time has passed, and he does not intend to influence it arbitrarily, so as not to cause any unknown changes.A point in the future, he does not know the specific situation there.In the end, there is only one transmission point to choose——the moment when "Ye Mu" from another world completely merges with the demon seeds at Heishuidu and triggers the vortex of demon energy.

Out of consideration for the connection between the game and the other world, he plans to park the game character at the Heishuidu in the game as a possible positioning point.

Ye Mu stayed in the online Shadow Palace for a while, and was about to send, when a speech bubble popped up next to him.

[Currently] Ximen Qing: Don't always shrink back in the safe zone, there is something to come out.

Ye Mu moved his perspective, glanced at the screen, and confirmed that the other party was talking to him.

He looked at the other party's game ID, recalled it for a while, and then remembered that this was the leader of a gang that he often beat up in the game.

During that time a year ago, people were in panic, and the game was much quieter.Until recently, the number of online gamers has been on the rise again.

Ye Mu's eyes paused for a second on the word "General" in the other party's speech.Habitually began to taunt.

[Current] Qi Ye Woruo: Want to bring someone to ambush me outside?How many times have you guarded in total, can you tell me more about it? :)

In the past year, he stayed in the Shadow Palace for a while and then went offline.This is a safe zone and I can't fight, and I didn't pay attention to whether there were people sneaking around in ambush.But after more than a year, I still remember coming to him to fight, this leader is also very persistent...

[Current] Ximen Qing: Your uncle!Did you already find out?Did you mean it?

The opponent controlled the character to punch and kick Ye Woruo angrily in the game.

Ye Mu is not in the mood to fight and kill in the game now, not to mention that this may be the last time he goes online, so it is inevitable that he has a little more tolerance in his mentality.

[Currently] Qi Ye Woruo: None.Don't want to fight now.I probably won't be online anymore.

In view of this persistence, tell the other party, so as not to bring someone over to ambush him.

[Currently] Ximen Qing:?

[Private Chat] Ximen Qing said to you: What happened suddenly?If there is something sad to say, it makes me happy.

[Private Chat] Ximen Qing said to you: If you need money, I can lend it to you.You have to leave your ID number to make an IOU.

[Private chat] You said to Ximen Qing: It's okay.In the future, I will be very busy at work and have no time to play games.

[Currently] Ximen Qing: Oh.

[Current] Ximen Qing: Then you don't want to play anymore anyway, let me fulfill my dream.Let me kill you once.

Seeing this sentence, Ye Mu controlled Ye Woruo to walk outside the Shadow Palace, while Ximen Qing trotted along behind him.

The next moment he left the safe zone, the other party couldn't wait to turn on the killing mode and cut over.

Ye Woruo stood still, let the opponent slash, and then——

You backstab Ximen Qing, causing 15003 points of damage.

You cast Shadow Kill on Ximen Qing, causing 7602 points of damage.

……

You successfully killed Ximen Qing!

[Currently] Qi Ye Woruo: No way.

Ye Mu pressed the teleport happily, and walked around Heishuidu to find the location according to his memory. Before exiting the game, he vaguely saw Ximen Qing scolding "It's Ye Woruo your uncle" on the World Channel.

The game really brings him a lot of joy.

In addition, he has no uncle.

Back at the research center, all the affairs of the Tianyan Bagua Formation are ready.

The location of the formation was set at the place where the meteorite fell in Province G.

It was noon, and the mountains and fields were sunny.

The six "natural beings" stand according to the eight trigrams.

"Holy Man" occupies the place of Zhenlei, "Elephant" occupies the place of Sunda Wind, "Vodka" occupies the place of Kanshui, "Bailu" occupies the place of Lihuo, "Mangzhong" occupies the place of Genshan, and Tongluo Shao occupies the place of Duize.

Ye Mu looked at the situation in the field from afar, and realized that coincidentally, the direction where the leader of the monster in country N was located was exactly the direction of Qiantian.

And he is in Kun's position - this is the position he consciously chose.

As the breeze blew across the venue, Ye Mu could feel that the six auras that he repelled subconsciously were resonating with each other, and the soaring spiritual power made him squint his eyes uncomfortably.The nearby instruments for measuring the source matter between the fields gradually showed that the source matter between the fields had been completely eliminated.The faces of the observers began to show joy.

But after the surge of spiritual power, it quickly fell back, and the repulsed source quality counterattacked back with a more ferocious momentum.If Ye Mu hadn't taken over most of the source quality in time to intervene, several ordinary people nearby would have been almost infected by the sudden accumulation of source quality.

The six "natural creatures" in the field were also impacted, and they all showed uncomfortable expressions.

Does it really not work?Ye Mu secretly sighed, and lost all expression.

The headquarters contacted Liu Ling to inquire about their situation. After confirming that there was no serious problem, they decided to take a break and try again.

This time, when the spiritual power soared to the peak and was about to be unsustainable, Ye Mu made a decisive move.

The demonic storm was released again.The source quality measuring instruments issued a sharp alarm sound together.

At the same time, in Ye Mu's let go of his perception, the only remaining weak monster sensor located in the direction of N country lit up as if he felt the candle flame of the breeze.

Ye Mu didn't miss this moment, he used his induction to induce the demon energy, forcibly pulled that demon seed, and joined this resonance!

In the distant N country, the demon leader screamed, and was shocked and angrily pushed to the ground by the sudden burst of strong magic pressure.

The world seemed to shake slightly.

The storm of demonic energy and spiritual power collided with each other, dying and growing continuously. The six spirits in the field were washed and washed by the surging spiritual power, struggling hard. "Holy Man" turned into a big white goose with full wings, with a humanized bewildered expression on the goose's face; "Bai Lu" crossed her arms and covered her arms, and the colorful pheasant feathers had covered half of her arms from top to bottom; the other three "natural creatures" had no obvious changes.

As for Ye Mu, he was struggling to maintain control of his body, but finally swept out under the influence of the impact.His field of vision suddenly rose, and he saw his unconscious body collapse on the spot.

At that moment, strong spiritual power bloomed in front of him.

The world is shaking.

The world obviously hasn't changed, but everyone realizes that something earth-shaking is happening.

The spiritual power of the six "natural beings" merged into the newly emerged spiritual power, and naturally merged into one, like double-petaled flowers blooming layer by layer.The invisible tide of spiritual power rushed in all directions, driving large swathes of magic energy high into the sky.The endlessly surging devilish energy was thrown towards Ye Mu, supporting him to rise, rise, and keep rising.A huge vortex of magic energy is like an upside-down bowl, forming above the earth.

Heaven and earth resonate.

When the flower of spiritual power bloomed to full bloom, as if being gently pushed by something, he fell into a sea of ​​information and lost his sense of the outside world.

A wonderful sense of suspension enveloped him, and countless memories emerged and subsided.He seems to have traveled a long way, and then seems to stop at the same place.

Consciousness emerges from the deep, thick sea of ​​information, and unfolds its tentacles of perception.

He heard the sound of dust floating in the air, he felt the touch of the breeze blowing through his hair, his eyes blinked, and in his gradually clear vision, he saw the worried eyes of Ye Nuan and Jiang Wang running towards him .

He came back here, he never left.

At this moment, Ye Mu completely merged with the demon seed.

Like a traveler who has traveled a long distance and finally returned to his hometown after a long absence, he suddenly felt a sense of exhaustion after being completely relaxed.

The turbulent devil energy poured into his armor, and attached to it became many faintly overlapping jet-black patterns, forming a dark night-like luster.Not a trace of magic energy was left floating outside.

Ye Nuan was worriedly asking something, but at this moment, no words could reach his ears.

He took a few steps forward and hugged them tightly amidst their surprised expressions.

The lonely heart finally falls where it belongs.

He lowered his head, laughed, and said softly:

"Hi, I'm back."
