453 Writing the Story of Hope Together (6000 2-in-1)
After the chat room was upgraded to LV2, not only the main content has been revised and updated, but even some ancillary functions have upgraded the experience, such as video, which could only be faced with a small mobile phone screen, and it is best to transfer the chat room to the computer, but now it can be through holographic projection, so that both sides of the video can be completely presented in front of their eyes, just like a real face-to-face, excellent experience.
In view of the fact that it was the first time to conduct a holographic projection video with outsiders, Tang Hao felt that as the administrator of the chat room, he could not lose face, and after taking a shower, he specially changed into the best clothes at home, combed the most beautiful hairstyle, and then made the background in the room look dim and mysterious by not turning on the light, and then sat on the sofa and leaned on the table to pose the deepest Pose, so ...... A mysterious, mature and tall behind-the-scenes figure is perfectly presented.
The only thing that makes Tang Hao feel sorry is that he still lacks a pair of sunglasses, which can't be helped, after all, his eyesight is very good, and he has never been in the habit of wearing glasses, so it is difficult to find suitable props for such a short time.
Of course, the effect is good at the moment, at least the surprised expressions on the faces of Asami and Madoka make him very satisfied.
"Well, as is customary, let me ask you a question first, Rumara...... Ahem, Xiao Meiyan, how far has your topic progressed? ”
"Eh, I ...... I haven't said anything yet, because I don't know where to start. Xiao Meiyan stammered and replied, her current personality is relatively weak, and her ability to speak has nothing to do with her, and Tang Hao's pretended to be profound did give her a little pressure.
But Gu Ming felt involuntarily looked up, convention? Is there any convention for this kind of thing? Aren't you also the first time?
Gu Ming didn't know what Tang Hao was doing, but he didn't care much, he secretly slandered himself, and then lowered his head to read the book again. When she used to live in the Earth Spirit Temple, she often read books and even wrote books by herself because she had nothing to do, but due to the limitations of the environment, it was always difficult for her creative ideas to jump out of the framework of Gensokyo and monsters, until she came to this world, enriched her knowledge and experience, and her inspiration increased greatly, and she felt that she could write a longer book after going back...... Well, the title of the book is that you guys really know how to play in the second dimension.
"Okay, let's start with a self-introduction." Tang Hao nodded lightly, "First of all, my name is Tang Hao, the word is day by day, living in a different world from you, in popular terms, he is a person from another world, good at a series of encyclopedias such as Baidu Meng Niang, for many worlds, it is not an exaggeration to be called omniscient and omnipotent, no matter what kind of questions you have, I can basically answer them." ”
"People from another world?"
Ba Asami and Madoka were stunned for a moment, and looked at Xiao Meiyan suspiciously, but whether they believed it or not, the two of them reacted quickly and immediately reported their names.
Tang Hao knew that they were suspicious, this was normal, after all, someone suddenly appeared and told you that he was from another world, and he must be suspicious, but they are all magical girls, and they have long been exposed to extraordinary things, and their ability to accept them is far greater than that of ordinary people, so he is not in a hurry to explain.
"Well, we want to know the truth about magical girls."
Xiao Meiyan took out her soul gem and the Seeds of Sorrow that she had collected before, put them on the table, then took a deep breath and looked at Tang Hao, "Senior, when I used the Seeds of Sorrow to absorb the filth in the soul gem before, I saw an incredible scene......
In Xiao Meiyan's description, what she saw was a magical girl who fought for love and hope, but because the enemy's strength was too strong, the burden of the battle became heavier and heavier, and as time passed, the magical girl gradually became overwhelmed and crushed by despair, until finally, her soul gem was completely polluted, her will and life were devoured, and only a twisted obsession remained, and then she became the witch she saw.
This scene depicts the magical girl's life from hope to despair, and although it was only a flash of light for Xiao Meiyan, it made her feel empathetic, so much so that she let out a desperate roar after watching it.
I see!
Tang Hao finally understood why Xiao Meiyan would detect the truth about the magical girl in advance, but Xiao Meiyan in the original book did not have this ability, that is, ...... Is this also a change brought about by chat rooms?
Tang Hao believes that everyone has a potential ability in their body, and the difference is only whether this potential is activated, such as Megumi Kato and Aoi Miyamori.
Megumi Kato's sense of non-existence can be applied to daily life, although it is far less than the ghosting of Toyoko Momoko in "Genius Mahjong Girl", but it can no longer be underestimated, especially after being further stimulated by the chat room, even evil spirits are difficult to detect her existence.
And Miyamori Aoi was able to awaken the ability to dive into the mind for the first time after exchanging his characteristic skills, but if he hadn't joined the chat room and had been living in the ordinary daily world, he should never have been able to awaken.
Although Xiao Meiyan has neither redeemed special skills nor traveled to other worlds, she is not an ordinary person herself, and the chat room is actually a huge information platform, and it is not so strange that she will awaken some abilities that she did not have under the stimulation of this special information.
Tang Hao himself has a deep understanding of this.
And after listening to Xiao Meiyan's words, Ba Asami and Madoka widened their eyes.
"You mean to say...... Is the witch actually fallen from a magical girl? This...... How is this possible! Asami was so excited that she stood up directly, and her hands trembled slightly.
"Ugh!" Xiao Meiyan seemed to be startled by her sudden reaction, and shrank back weakly, but soon she remembered the life experienced by that magical girl, bravely raised her head and looked at Asami, and nodded vigorously.
Xiao Yuan found that the atmosphere between the two was a little tense, and hurriedly persuaded: "Sister Ma Mei, please calm down, this is just Xiao Yan's speculation, no matter what the facts are, ...... first Let her finish her sentence first. ”
“…… Sorry, it was me who lost my temper. ”
Asami came back to her senses, sat back apologetically, and took a sip of her teacup, trying to relieve her emotions with coffee, but the eyelids that fluttered from time to time still showed her extreme uneasiness inside.
Although from the perspective of external personality, Ba Asami is a mature, steady, tolerant senior sister, and her strength is also the strongest, but in fact, she is the most fragile one in the heart of the five-color team, and she can even be called a glass heart, and if she is stimulated a little violently, she will become paranoid and crazy.
This can also be seen from the original book.,As soon as she appeared, she unconsciously wooed Madoka and Blue Hair to become magical girls.,It's because she's afraid of loneliness.,Want your companions and herself to share all this.。
This is also the real origin of the phrase "there is nothing to be afraid of".
Because I found a companion, because I was no longer alone, I could fight with peace of mind, which should have been like this...... But after all, it's an old fictional script, and of course it's common to be happy and sad.
On the contrary, Xiao Meiyan, who is the weakest and incompetent on the outside, is the strongest in the heart of the five-color team.
This is also a matter of course, if you don't have a heart that is so strong that it is almost cruel, how can you bear the countless reincarnations, just like the fierce truth of the Phoenix Courtyard in "The Gate of Destiny Stone".
Maise Hongliqi only went back to the past once, and was almost crushed by that desperate reality, but the fierce truth of the Phoenix Courtyard has experienced countless times in a desperate and cruel environment, especially the outrageous three thousand consecutive jumps, which is not at all something that an ordinary person's spirit can bear, as for what ordinary people are like, just look at the crazy Natsuki Pleiades.
Therefore, whether it is Fierce True or Xiao Meiyan, their spirits are far beyond the reach of people, and they are typical of will and strength, and Mushroom's phrase "Humans are strong" is very suitable for the two of them.
"Xiao Huo, is there any evidence other than the scene you saw?" Then, Madoka asked.
"Evidence ......" Xiao Meiyan shook her head, if she had other evidence, she would have taken it out a long time ago, how could she be silent until now, so she set her eyes on Tang Hao on the big screen.
"If you're going to talk about evidence, I do have some here, first of all, you look at the table."
The three of them hung their heads at Tang Hao's words, and in addition to the teapot and teacup on the table, there were only Xiao Meiyan's soul gems and the seeds of lamentation.
"Don't you think these two look almost identical?"
"This ......"
Indeed, if you look at it from the appearance alone, there is almost no difference between the Soul Gem and the Seed of Lamentation, except that one is black and the other is colored. Of course, by their very nature, the Soul Gem can make them feel the magic of purity, while the Seed of Lament only has the aura of evil and depravity, and even if they look similar, it is completely different.
"But just this degree of similarity doesn't prove anything, does it?" Asami still stubbornly retorted, this evidence alone could not convince her, in her heart, Kewpie is everyone's companion, and although the battle of the magical girl is cruel, it is fighting for peace and hope.
If the witch is a magical girl, wouldn't that be ......
"That's because you haven't seen the soul gem completely tainted." Tang Hao shook his head and said, "When you pray to become a magical girl, the soul gem will be your source of strength, and Kewpie should have told you that this is what your soul is embodied, and it also maintains your life, but as we all know, you and I are mortals, and no one's soul is spotless, there is a good side, and naturally there will be a greedy and selfish side." ”
"The Soul Gem allows you to see the good side, so where does the bad side go? That's right, it grows in battle, and as you become magical girls for longer and longer, because of pain, confusion and despair, the dark side will gradually emerge, which is what you know as filth, and although this filth can be absorbed through the seeds of lamentation, remember, it does not disappear, but it is transferred. ”
"You should also know that the seed of lament is actually the witch's egg, and when it absorbs a lot of filth, it can hatch a witch, in other words, the darkness that grows from your heart is the source of the birth of a witch. If the Seed of Lamentation can give birth to a witch, why can't the Soul Gem? When it is completely polluted by darkness and despair, what is the difference between it and the seed of lamentation? ”
"This ......"
"If magical girls are really for love and hope as they appear on TV, why do you fight more and more filth? Why do you have to hunt witches to sustain your existence? Why is it that no matter how much you fight, the witch always kills you inexhaustibly? Why is it necessary to feed the seed of lament to the cuppy after it has absorbed a certain amount of filth? Why did Kewpie never tell you what would become of you when the soul gem was completely polluted? Why ......"
"No...... Say no more! ”
Hearing this, Ba Asami's face was already pale, she stood up suddenly, grabbed the flintlock pistol out of nowhere with both hands, and pointed at Tang Hao in the big virtual screen with a grief-stricken expression.
Unlike Xiaomei Flame Deer Eye Yuan, Ba Asami has been a magical girl for several years, and she has been fighting alone for several years, she knows very well that the magical girl in reality is different from the one on TV, and it is accompanied by danger all the time, and once she becomes a magical girl, she must accept that fearful fate.
That's why she longs for companionship.
And the fate that Tang Hao said was a hundred times more cruel than she imagined, she hadn't thought of it before, because she hadn't thought about it at all, but she wasn't stupid after all, but after these doubts were revealed, everything seemed so natural.
She couldn't find any place to refute it.
But she couldn't believe it.
If that's the truth about magical girls, then ......
"Aren't you going to die?!"
"Sister Mamei?" Xiao Meiyan and Lu Meiyuan were taken aback, they never expected Ba Asami to have such a big reaction, especially the expression of crying and despair, and the usually reliable and steady Sister Mamei, it was like two people.
"I'm sorry, Madoka, Homura, I'm not as strong as you think, I'm ......"
"Even if I don't say it, what can you do?" Tang Hao calmly interrupted her words, "Fate has always been there, it only depends on whether you know, ignorant going can only send your life ignorantly, if I tell you that everything I said just now is a lie, wouldn't you die?" ”
"But ......"
Asami pursed her lips, and the fingers holding the board machine didn't press down, and she didn't know what to say or do for a while.
Tang Hao sighed, "Let's calm down a little." ”
Crash!
When the words fell, Gu Ming Dijue, who was sitting in the corner, raised his head, only to see a wave of energy floating, and then, Ba Mami's body slowly fell.
"Sister Mamei......" Xiaoyuan hurriedly reached out to help her, and looked at Gu Ming Dijue nervously, "Is she okay?" ”
"Nothing, I just calmed her down a little." Gu Ming replied indifferently, and then lowered his head again, and looked at the book to himself.
This kind of personality makes Madoka feel that it is not easy to get along with, so she is no longer bored with herself, but Asami's situation is gradually improving, and her expression and eyes seem to have been eased, which can't help but make Madoka breathe a sigh of relief.
"I'm sorry, I was so excited that I worried you."
After a few minutes, Asami's mood returned to normal, and she wiped the tears from her face with a tissue and apologized to everyone.
"Senior sister is fine." Madoka laughed.
Xiao Meiyan was a little apprehensive, but she didn't expect that Sister Ma Meiyan was actually such a fragile person, if she had known earlier, she should have made more preparations...... Fortunately, there is Gu Ming Dijue on the scene, otherwise, if it is only her and Xiaoyuan, once Sister Ma Mei really goes berserk, I really don't know how to suppress her.
It is estimated that it will be double-killed.
Don't look at Ba Asami's death in the third episode, and become a headless senior sister who is rumored on the Internet, but if you really want to talk about strength, not counting the flame demon and round god in the late stage, the other four people of the five-color team together can't beat her alone.
Four to one, at most five or five, right?
"But why did Kewpie deceive us? Is that any good for it? After Asami calmed down, Madoka asked Tang Hao.
In fact, she was also shocked when she suddenly heard such a fact, but as the so-called peer foil, due to Ba Asami's overreaction, she seemed relatively calm.
Tang Hao shook his head, "Literally, Kewpie didn't actually deceive you, basically none of what she said was false, it's just that it never told you everything, as for its purpose......"
……
"Wow, I can't get in."
Just when Tang Hao and the magical girls were talking about the inside story, Kewpie, as the person concerned, was wandering near Ba Asami's apartment at the moment, it had already circled several times, and this apartment that could allow it to come and go freely in the past was now wrapped in a powerful enchantment, obviously humans can enter and exit freely, but it is blocked out.
Judging from the style of the enchantment, it knew that this was not Asami's work, and neither Madoka Shikame nor Akami Yan had such power, so the result could only be her.
Kewpie has a strong interest in Gu Ming Dijue, and he believes that if this girl becomes a magical girl, she will definitely be the strongest magical girl in history...... Of course, once you degenerate into a witch, you will also become an invincible monster, which is enough to achieve extremely impressive achievements.
It's just that it also has a lot of vigilance against Gu Ming Dijue.
In order to maintain the balance of cosmic energy, their incubators came to the earth from distant alien stars, which is to take a fancy to the rich emotions of human beings, especially the girls, once the delicate and rich emotions are desperate and degenerate, they will produce huge energy, and at the same time, human beings themselves are extremely weak, and it can be said that they are the most suitable species for sacrifice.
But Gu Ming felt different, and she was even stronger than a magical girl.
It has been living on Earth for many years and never knew of such a existence.
Where did it come from? For what purpose?
Since the last time it escaped from the hands of Gu Ming Dijue (in fact, it was deliberately let go in order not to arouse its vigilance), it has been investigating this matter, but there has never been any clue, and at this moment, several magical girls gathered together, and laid such a powerful enchantment, it is obvious that there is an important matter to discuss.
Did your plan be known?
Well, it doesn't matter if it's leaked, but I'd like to go in and have a look.
But I can't get in!
Kewpie was jumping in front of the barrier, like a hamster who was too hungry to find food, and suddenly, a ripple appeared on the surface of the barrier somewhere, and it bounced towards Kewpie, and with a bang, it flew into the distance.
"In order to maintain the energy consumed by the universe, that's why you choose us humans and choose us magical girls as sacrifices?"
In the apartment, when Tang Hao said Kewpie's purpose, Xiao Meiyan's eyes widened in surprise, and their first reaction was absurdity. They don't know how much energy it takes to maintain the balance of the universe, but is it really feasible for humans to be a drop in the ocean compared to the entire universe?
In fact, Tang Hao also had similar thoughts.
The universe has no limits, human beings are like ants, let ant-like humans affect the survival of the universe, this brain hole is simply unreliable than Thanos, to put it mildly, as long as a stone can make all the human beings on the earth perish, the fragile species can still interfere with the entire universe, with the key?
Of course, after all, the setting is like this, although the Kewpie guy doesn't talk completely, but he basically can't lie, and they are still sacrificing girls on the earth for thousands of years, if it is not feasible, it is estimated that they would have been evacuated long ago.
So, let's just think so.
Anyway, he can't find a suitable concept to understand this logic right now.
"Maybe it's because human feelings are more special, because Kewpie's race has no feelings...... Anyway, you already know the truth about the magical girl, what are you going to do next? ”
Upon hearing the question, all three fell silent.
"Well, what do you think we should do?" Madoka asked, unconsciously using an honorific.
Tang Hao shook his head, "I don't have an idea for the time being, in fact, if it weren't for the roar...... Xiao Huo noticed this, and I didn't even plan to say it. ”
"I'm sorry." Xiao Meiyan is a little embarrassed, is it her fault?
Madoka blinked, "Didn't you say that you are an all-knowing and all-powerful being?" ”
Hey, you found Huadian!
Tang Hao was stunned for a moment, and then replied calmly, "I only know what I know, I can only do what I can do, this is my omniscience, as for the things of the universe, it is not within my ability for the time being." ”
“……”
"But to be honest, although there is no way to do it, at least you can be reincarnated in this world, even if you fail once or twice, as long as Xiao Yan is still alive, there are countless chances to start over."
This is actually a bit cruel, after all, every reincarnation has to be sacrificed, and the matter of memory is easy to do, just reinterpret it, but this pain, at least for Xiao Meiyan......
But Xiao Meiyan laughed, she took the hands of Madoka and Ba Mami, and said confidently: "It's okay, Madoka, Sister Mama, let's work together, as long as we keep looking, we must find true hope in this reincarnation!" ”
As if infected by her smile and confidence, Madoka Shikame and Asami also nodded vigorously.
"Well, let's all work together!"
The hands of the three were clasped tightly.
Although this world is cruel, although the truth of magical girls is dark and desperate, but they have no reason to give up hope as the living, even if it is a fate without redemption, who can guarantee that they will not be able to compose a story of love and hope?
