Chapter 181 Visions of the Past and Future (Part I)
Kindness......
Gu Wu thought about the current problem, and the whole person also squatted down in such a situation, closing the distance with the traverser who was kneeling on the ground.
In the middle of the night, the woodland smells of grass, the smell of earth, and the coolness of the sea breeze, and the moonlight, which is difficult to penetrate the dense foliage, falls scattered on the ground piled with rotting leaves and branches, and the illuminated position can see the shimmering silver droplets, and the birds that occasionally pass by overhead do not stop, but rush to the distance.
The noisy chirping of insects and cicadas in the summer season also stopped, and at this moment of calm, only the breeze riding the waves and stroking the green grass flew past everyone.
At this moment, which should have felt a chill, the nervous traverser was sweating profusely, and his eyes were uncertain, and he was probably looking for an opportunity to break through the status quo.
For the traverser in front of him who had entered another world chaotically, Gu Wu's appearance was his biggest crisis, after all, the original position of the two sides was to fight each other until one of them died.
However, Gu Wu's strength is obvious to all, so the traverser naturally has no intention of head-on conflict, and he was ready to flee when he first sensed that something was wrong, but he was still a step slower, and he couldn't leave here on the premise of being discovered by Gu Wu.
Knowing the other party's thoughts, Gu Wu, who was squatting down, did not continue to ask him questions, but moved his gaze to the other side.
"It's helpless...... Originally, I set up a barrier to surround the woods, and at the same time protect the holiday house, and not only that, but I also added the "Silence Technique" and "Vibration Cancellation", and the result...... The explosion that just appeared must have had a big impact and woke up the others who were asleep, right? After all, I can hear it from the inside of this barrier. β
Speaking of this, Gu Wu asked the other party at this time
"Do you know what the reason is? It's a detail that doesn't need to be explored, but I'm still very concerned. β
"Before......"
The traverser, who looked a little dry-mouthed, licked his lips before continuing to pick up on his own speech
"When fighting with you, everyone didn't use all their abilities at all, because some skills that were not damage were useless at the time, after all, the main purpose of the mission was to 'erase the target' rather than limit, so now, there will be a different situation;
Not 'to make people hear', but to 'give people the illusion of hearing sounds'?
Sure enough, the skills have the setting of mutual restraint, which is also the 'advantages and disadvantages' that the traverser must bear and overcome.
Gu Wu's barrier is only sound insulation and damage blocking, but it can't make outsiders' 'non-damage skills' lose their effects; of course, there are ways to deal with it, as long as the effect of 'isolation skills' is added to the future use, but Gu Wu thinks that that effect is difficult to play a good role in high-level and high-level powerful techniques.
Either way, it can be inferred that there are other traversers.
[Responding to the host, it's like playing the role of the 'hero of the original world', not 'crossing the past', but 'being traveled over'.] γ
The system is quite right.
Gu Wu is no longer the active party, but the passive party.
If you look at the same problem from this perspective, you will find that 'the traverser is an existence that will bring trouble', which is a typical expression of 'self-interest'.
You can do that, but others can't.
"System, are you sure you've blocked the 'Exchange World' from the outside world? Could it be that the outside world is connected by accident? β
[In response to the host, the so-called crossing is actually a 'choice of different world lines', and the system does make the world independent, and theoretically cannot be chosen; not only that, but the system has also reminded me before that all this is not the responsibility of outsiders, but the 'episode' brought by the host.] γ
"I mean, I caused it?"
Gu Wu had a good memory, so he thought about his experience after returning here.
Figured it out! Gu Wu was sure that he didn't do anything that caused the problem.
[Responding to the host, sometimes I can't fully figure out my inner thoughts; For example, can the host be 100% sure that they will always like their current life'? I believe that the host at this moment can give an answer like 'YES', but is that really an idea that will not change? In the subconscious, there will always be the thought of 'feeling troublesome'. γ
The system emphasised in a cheerful tone
[Not only human beings, but all thinking individuals, when they come to the conclusion of 'I will do this', is it not equivalent to denying the result of 'I will not do that'?] γ
The existence of justice is based on evil, so Gu Wu's favorite mood is also because it transcends the emotion of disgust, so he will answer so affirmatively.
After all, no matter what, Gu Wu at this moment is here because of 'like', not 'disgust'.
"When you choose to do something, is it the same as giving up something......
From this theoretical point of view, Gu Wu realized the reason for the appearance of the traverser in front of him.
For Gu Wu, deep down in his heart, he wanted to save those who survived.
If you go back a little further, Gu Wu, who is eager to become stronger and change everything, even intends to become a god-lord, but unfortunately he can't reach that height.
Now that he understood the meaning of the system, Gu Wu didn't continue to talk about it, there was no need for it.
As the system says, Gu Wu dominates this 'exchange world', so the 'exchange world' will naturally respond to his expectations to some extent.
[In response to the host, the information obtained by this system from your predecessors ......]
"Needless to say, the information that the black cat gave you must have information about various different traversers."
[Responding to the host, that's right, the host is quite smart.] γ
"Somewhere in my heart, combined with your intelligence, and the response of the world, ultimately led to the immediate result."
Not crossed, but crossed.
This feeling is many times more subtle than imagined......
Fortunately, Gu Wu didn't feel troublesome.
He doesn't hate his inner thoughts turning into reality, and if he can, he hopes that the 'various happiness' of the beautiful girl will also become a reality.
After listening to the description of the system, Gu Wu, who did not continue to struggle, stood up and looked at the location where AltaΓ―r had disappeared.
"Let's go check it out."
"Good, good ......"
The trembling traverser stood up leaning on the trunks of nearby trees, but his vigilance was still not lifted, for fear that Gu Wu would cut off his head in the next moment.
Is this guy still delusional?
Gu Wu raised his right hand and scratched his hair, which startled the other party.
"Calm down...... This is no battlefield anymore, so you have no reason to be afraid, and I won't kill you unless you're stupid enough to do something that threatens me and the others. β
"And ...... here?"
"To put it bluntly, this is my world, a world created with victory points and final permissions."
"Can you even do this?!"
Not surprised, but 'impossible' attitude.
"That's the truth, so as long as you don't mess around, you won't be punished, understand?"
"Understood...... If what you're saying is true, I don't have any intention of becoming an enemy of you. β
"Alright, let's go see how your companion is."
"To be precise, that guy is not my companion, but just to learn about some of each other's abilities when they cooperate."
Such......
Most of the traversers in front of them are worried that the other person will cause more trouble, so they should put aside the relationship with them in advance, this is a very smart self-protection action.
At a time when there is a big gap in strength, it is the right thing to do to protect yourself.
"You suddenly appeared in this world?"
"That's right...... It was as if I had had a long dream, and when I woke up, I was in it; Sensing a powerful aura, I conducted an investigation, and you understand the rest of the matter...... I wasn't going to fight. β
Shall we be called or created?
Gu Wu didn't know the answer, so he could only walk forward to see what the situation was on Altair's side.
But when he passed near the holiday house, Gu Wu noticed that someone was gathering at the door.
They were Tina, Luise, Kasumigaoka, and Pear Pear, and they didn't leave the porch outside the door immediately for safety reasons, but chose to wait and see.
Letting the traverser stay where he was, Gu Wu set off and walked over.
"Master! How do you stay outside?! What's going on?! β
"Don't worry, I just heard some reports of thieves, so I went out and searched, Miss AltaΓ―r is also helping, you can go and rest."
"Is it really a thief? The explosion I just heard was weird! β
"It's just the sound of fireworks on the ground, don't worry too much, it's better to go to bed early, because there's a lot more to do tomorrow."
Gu Wu's explanation was reasonable, but he couldn't easily convince everyone on the scene.
"What's the point of thieves coming here? The shops opposite Mali are not the first choice? β
Kasumigaoka, who asked this question, sensed that something was wrong.
Gu Wu thought for a moment.
"Maybe it's trying to cause an accident by making a commotion around here first."
"Stay safe!"
Ying Lili, who was holding a chocolate bread in both hands, reminded Gu Wu to nod.
Gu Wu ...... Come back early......"
"I will, Tina."
In short-
"Go to bed early and wake up early, it's late enough, go and rest, I'll be back in a few minutes."
"Don't go into the wrong room."
Kasumigaoka said something thoughtful, and then walked towards the house.
Hearing this, Ying Lili immediately caught up with the other party.
"It's really weird!"
It looks like the two girls are about to start a new argument again.
On the other side, Tina and Luise, who had been assured by Gu Wu, yawned and walked to the resort house one after another.
After confirming that the girls had returned, Gu Wu found the traverser he had just placed again, and continued to walk together towards Altair's location.
"You didn't run away, good decision."
"I just said that I don't want to fight you......"
The traverser remained silent next, but from time to time he would sneak a glance at Gu Wu, making it impossible for him to turn a blind eye.
"Crossing boy, what do you want to say?"
"Just ......"
"You say they, this is my life in this world, and they are part of my life."
Gu Wu looked ahead.
This is the path formed along the junction of the beach and the woods, and Gu Wu, who left footprints on the ground, also looked at the traverser
"Now this is my 'reality', completely different from the world you have traveled through in the past, but a separate, special, and all-encompassing world."
"Can a world made of exchange really reach this point?"
"The reality in front of you is the answer, but I don't think it makes any sense for me to describe it directly, only if you see it yourself, if you have the opportunity."
Gu Wu and the traverser walked for less than a minute before they saw Altair, who pierced the other party's clothes with the blade of the knife and dragged him away by the back of the knife.
Faced with this kind of scene, the traverser who didn't dare to resist moved directly to the side, hoping to hide behind Gu Wu's back.
"Miss Altair, ...... over there"
"What about your prey who likes to play tricks?"
"There's no need to worry, he's no longer hostile, so there's no need to worry."
"It's suspicious, it's recommended to be restrained first."
Altair's suggestion was correct, and it was done out of prudence.
For this reason, before the traverser behind him could react, Gu Wu completely controlled it with a solid barrier, and also added the aforementioned 'Enhanced Skill Immunity' function.
The imprisoned traveler immediately cried out.
"I'm so sorry! I'm just too dazed to be hostile to you! If you really wanted to attack, you would have used the magic of the explosion on that room a long time ago! β
"So calm down, Crossing Boy, Miss AltaΓ―r isn't trying to kill you."
"No, no! Eldest brother! Her eyes are terrifying! It's going to get killed! β
Gu Wu faced Altair.
It's a bit ......
It's kind of angry.
It wasn't fully expressed, but his eyes were cold.
"I think it's okay to kill them all to prevent future troubles, if it weren't for these two of them, I wouldn't have wasted my sleep time here, long ago and in an instant...... Of course, I also understand that the information they have needs to be thoroughly investigated. β
"That's right, Miss Altair, these two men are not worthless."
Gu Wu asked the traverser behind him and the traverser who woke up to calm down.
"Okay, tell me everything you know, this world is not a world that needs people in the way."
