Huang Yi didn't ask why Lijian made this choice, because in the case that any possibility can be virtualized, the hypothesis of "brain in a vat" has no correct answer at all, and it can only depend on what the other party is willing to believe, and believing in this word is very subjective.

Mr. Huang Sha looked at the fish in the lake and said, "Now, both of you have made a choice, there is no right or wrong choice between you, but you believe in different things." We will follow your ideas and show you what you want to believe. ”

Huang Yi and Li Jian glanced at each other, and neither of them spoke, like a silent goodbye.

They have made very different choices and may live in very different worlds in the future.

Maybe one day, they will meet again, and the things they believe in may change, and the world they live in may be different.

"I'm gone, I hope to see you again in the future." Huang Yi nodded towards the sword, looked at him deeply, and then disappeared into thin air.

In the Pavilion in the heart of the lake, only two people remained, Li Jian and Mr. Huang Sha.

Li Jian looked at the door on the other side of the lake, took a deep breath, and said quietly: "If you decide to go to a far place, under what circumstances will you come back again?" ”

Mr. Huang Sha looked at the fish drift on the lake, as if he was recalling something, his eyes gradually lost focus, and a warm smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "When I need people, when I need me." ”

The sword pursed his lips, as if pondering the words.

The air was quiet, except for the afternoon wind.

"I see! Goodbye, Mr. Huangsha! Sharp Sword's face regained firmness, and he bowed deeply to Mr. Huangsha's back, and turned to leave the place.

……

Leaving the courtyard of the gods, Huang Yi suddenly felt that he had nothing to do.

He no longer has a goal, he just needs to wait for the release date in a few days, and going online has become a pure act to pass the time, no enemies, no mission.

He returned to the place where he was first born, to the city where the she-cat gave birth to him, there was not a single player, it was empty, all had gone through the black hole to the place of origin, and only a few NPCs remained.

He walked on the empty street, and suddenly felt a little emotional, like being in an old game that no one played, and after the launch, he was left alone, and the avatars in his friends list were all gray.

Those once hot bosses have no one to fight, no one fights for legendary equipment, and those NPCs who were once surrounded are now standing alone in the main city, and the names of those rankings have not been moved for a long time, just silently showing their former glory.

Huang Yi paced slowly, walked through those former roads alone, went to the ruined Fenglin Village, went to Bailong Lake, went to Thorn City, went to the Dragon Capital in the desert, and looked back on his time in the past few years in this empty world.

Years passed like this, and those experiences seemed like something that happened a long, long time ago, like a dream.

Standing outside the walls of Longdu, he remembered the scene of the first time he had come here, when he was about to come to see Qin Shiyu, but he was blocked by the skeleton army outside the city, and it took a lot of effort to kill him.

Those little things are so nostalgic when I think about them now.

Fortunately, this long and tortuous road was not in vain, all the struggles were not disappointed, and he was soon able to get out of prison and live the life he really wanted.

Suddenly, the air in front of him rippled, and a Miaoman figure was teleported, and it was Qin Shiyu.

When Huang Yi saw her, he suddenly remembered Mr. Huang Sha's words, if the lifelike beauty standing in front of him was a fake NPC......

Huang Yi just stared at her, looking at her affectionate eyes, looking at the sweet smile on the corner of her mouth, feeling the air flow coming out of her nose, and feeling her presence.

"Brother Yi, what's wrong with you?" Qin Shiyu saw Huang Yi's strange expression and asked suspiciously.

"You know what? Just now, Mr. Huang Sha said, you are not a real person, but an NPC! Huang Yi shook his head and smiled, reaching out to stroke Qin Shiyu's hair, as if he was telling a joke.

Qin Shiyu was also amused immediately, hugged Huang Yi in his arms, and said gently: "Fool, of course I'm real!" ”

Huang Yi's body trembled violently, and he froze in place like a statue, his palm rested on Qin Shiyu's head, motionless.

"Brother Yi, why are you making such a fuss?" Qin Shiyu became more and more confused, tilted his head, pouted, and said coquettishly: "I've been here for a while, and you haven't kissed me yet!" ”

"You're scaring me to death!" Huang Yi exhaled a long breath and pursed his lips unhappily like a child, "Your answer just now is exactly the same as that of NPCs!" I don't care, you have to answer it again! ”

Qin Shiyu stretched out his slender fingers, tapped Huang Yi's forehead, and said coquettishly: "Big fool! What's in your head? Mr. Huang Sha just said a few words, and you think I'm fake? We grew up together, and we have come over for so many years, and you don't believe me, but you are fooled by others with just a few words? ”

"I didn't! It's just that your answer is just the same as that of NPCs, and I was just shocked! Huang Yi hurriedly hugged her in his arms and coaxed.

Qin Shiyu wrinkled his nose: "Hmph! Normal girls are asked this question by their boyfriends, aren't they all so coquettish? It's easy to guess! If Mr. Huangsha can predict what I will say the next day, then I will consider whether I am true or not! ”

"Alright, don't be angry! I didn't believe Mr. Huangsha, I only believed my feelings. Huang Yi said, kissing her on the cheek.

Qin Shiyu was discouraged at this time, hugged Huang Yi's neck, and said, "Why don't you go to the place of origin?" ”

"My past is here, I want to see more, and the place of origin is a new era, I'll see it later." Huang Yi stretched out his hand and stroked Qin Shiyu's hair, imagining that in a few days, he would be able to really stroke her hair, and even hug her into his arms every night, smell her hair, and sleep peacefully.

The hard work of the past few years is for such a day, and it is finally going to be realized.

Qin Shiyu put his face on Huang Yi's chest, closed his eyes, and said, "Yes!" Let's stay here forever with that kind of life! It's time for us to live our little life. But I believe that your legend will continue to be passed down in the virtual world, and there will be a new person who will become your inheritor, and he will bring your glory to call for wind and rain in that new world and create a new legend ......"

……

The place of origin, the summit of a high mountain.

A dissolute teenager between his eyebrows, sitting on the edge of a towering cliff, leisurely swinging his legs, looking at the mountains and rivers below the cliff, the grassland forest, the beautiful world spread out in front of him, as far as the eye can see, it seems that everywhere is full of miracles.

"Huh?" At this moment, he raised his head slightly and looked at the sky not far away.

There was a small green leaf, light as nothing, and it kept rolling with the wind, and I don't know where it came from.

The green leaf floated right in front of him, and he reached out and grabbed the green leaf, and put it in front of his eyes to look at it carefully.

The green leaf was small and inconspicuous, but there was a small line written on the front, and he read it softly

"We fight not because we have enemies, but because we have lovers."

As soon as he finished reading, an electronically synthesized voice sounded

"[System Prompt]: Congratulations on obtaining the [Drifting Leaf] of [God King Killing God], and you have obtained part of the inheritance of [God King Killing God]."

The boy was stunned, and after a long while, a smile of ecstasy suddenly bloomed on his face, and he excitedly held the leaf as if it were a treasure.

This drifting leaf must have come from a distant place, perhaps blown away at random by the killing god one day, and since then it has been floating and drifting, and it has flown into his hands in the dark, allowing him to get the inheritance.

He quickly checked the abilities he had inherited, and one of them was impressive

[Eye of Time]: You can see the distant past as well as the finite future.

He stared at the drifting leaf in his hand, and immediately used his eye of time to look at its past, to the day it floated up

It was an endless ocean, and a huge turtle was swimming slowly in the sea, and its back was like a small island, with villages, bamboo forests, and mountain peaks......

The view begins to drop, the island grows larger and the details become clearer, and finally freezes in a fairyland-like valley.

There was a man standing in the valley, surrounded by a few small smurfs, holding a green leaf in his hand and blowing softly.

The green leaf suddenly floated up, as if it was supported by an invisible force, drifting higher and higher, drifting farther and farther.

The man raised his head and looked up in the direction where the green leaf had disappeared, just opposite the perspective, as if he had traveled through time and space, and looked at the young man.

"Kill God, I will continue to walk with your glory......" The young man muttered to himself.

……

A cold storage on Earth, the door is slowly opening.

In the darkness, the sword took his sister's little hand and stood at the door, quietly staring at the slowly opening door.

The dust that had accumulated for many years slowly drifted down, and a touch of golden sunlight shone in outside the door, slightly dazzling.

Sharp Sword squinted his eyes, got used to it, and took his sister's hand and walked out slowly, into the warm sunlight.

Outside the door was a desolate wasteland, and not far away were several scrapped cars, overgrown with brown iron oxen, overwhelmed with weeds.

The city in the distance is in ruins, the high-rise buildings are overgrown with wild grass, and green vines stick out of the broken windows, like the scene after the extinction of mankind.

The sword watched all this in a daze, and did not take a step forward for a long time, as if after this step, he would truly enter that wasteland-like world.

"Brother, is this the real world?"

"I don't know, maybe it's also a virtual world."
