Chapter 16: Inexplicable Thoughts

Lin Ming was silent, he was thinking about why there was such an infinite loop in this world. From the beginning to the end, then it jumps back to the beginning, and so on and so on and so on.

Wait, wait!

Lin Ming exclaimed, "I seem to understand what the reason is." ”

Dr. Schreiber asked in a deep voice, "What is the reason?" ”

"Actually, it's very easy to explain, and you should be able to understand the movie."

"Yes, I went to the cinema and watched the movie."

"If you look at a movie from the beginning to the end, what does that mean?"

"It means the movie is over!" Dr. Schreber was a smart man after all, and he understood it right away.

"yes, so it's over when you watch the movie. But what about when it's over? Is the world line moving forward? Or do you want to go back to square one and start all over again? ”

"You're saying the world is like a movie?"

Lin Ming calmed down and said in a deep voice: "Yes, the plot starts with that accident, and then ends with changing the world. The plot ends, so the timeline of this world goes back to the beginning. ”

"Wait, have you seen this movie?"

"No, if only I had seen it. I can just find a more ingenious way to break the game. Lin Ming said this, and suddenly vaguely seemed to understand something.

Looking at the illusory starry sky above him and at the paralyzed city, he patted Dr. Schreiber on the shoulder and sighed, "Thank you anyway." I just don't know how to do it, but I want to do an experiment. ”

"Experiment? What are the consequences? ”

"I don't know, but I guess it's all gone."

Dr. Schreber sighed and said, "If you disappear, you will disappear, I don't care." Anyway, everything here is inherently virtual. So what if it's a movie world? ”

"I think that's probably the only way to do it."

Lin Ming's figure flew into the sky, and he saw the whole city, as if a perfectly circular flat world was floating in a space surrounded by illusory starry sky.

Lin Ming, who has now controlled the core of the world, directly began to choose to erase the traces of this world from the very beginning. The first to disappear was the illusory starry sky, and the sky was once again a dull darkness.

The survivors, who had just calmed down, pointed to the sky and exclaimed, but soon found that the buildings around them were beginning to disappear without a trace. The whole city is disappearing completely in a strange and inexplicable way.

Dr. Schreiber looked at the vanishing world and laughed excitedly, and he vaguely felt that the original world line that had been circulating began to crumble.

Lin Ming looked at those panicked people without the slightest pity. Watch everything they live with them gradually dissolve into nothingness. Then came the city's subterranean world, where the intricate fiber-like pipes began to disappear.

In the end, only Dr. Schreb and Lin Ming were left in the entire space, and everything else turned into nothingness.

Dr. Schreiber sighed, "If it were possible, I would like to never let this world reappear after I'm gone." ”

"Why?"

"Because there is no past and no future in the world, there is no value in existence. Even if a human being lives in such a world, what is the difference between a group of walking dead? ”

Lin Ming nodded seriously and said, "I promise you, I won't let such a world appear again." ”

He saw Dr. Schreber's figure turn into fragments and disappear without a trace. There was an inexplicable feeling that everything in the surrounding space began to undergo a strange and unknown change.

An inexplicable thought seemed to come from the distant sky, Lin Ming looked in the direction from which the thought came, and he saw an infinite universe with endless flow of light and shadow.

In the deepest part of the universe, above all the light and shadows, there was a figure with a golden mask, and then it completely disappeared from Lin Ming's perception.

The illusory figure had no power, it looked like a phantom. Lin Ming felt an untouchable sense of fear from the bottom of his heart.

After Lin Ming suppressed the fear in his heart, his eyes suddenly lit up, and his consciousness seemed to fall into a deep sleep again, and the space that originally existed in that city began to shine.

When Lin Ming woke up again, this time it was not in the water tank. Instead, he found himself in a space that was white in all directions.

This space doesn't know if there is an end to existence, at least Lin Ming's perception can't feel the edge.

"It means that I finally came out of that weird movie world. It's just that it's not easy to come out, and it takes the whole world to completely collapse. But what exactly is that movie, and how do you feel that in the end, it seems like I've seen it before? If only there was a mirror now, it's better not to turn yourself into someone else, especially a character in the movie world. ”

Just when Lin Ming was thinking like this, a long dressing mirror appeared in front of him.

Lin Ming could tell at a glance that the person inside was himself, about 1.85 meters tall, with very short hair and looking very energetic. A well-developed muscle that has been exercised by practicing martial arts and fighting. With a little stubble under his chin, he is a brave and tall rough man. It's just that why don't you even wear clothes? Although his capital is good, there are no beautiful women around him to peek.

However, Lin Ming realized that the ability of "frequency modulation" obtained from that world had not disappeared, so he understood what to do with this ability to manifest his fantasies.

A set of casual field clothes that he had always wanted to buy on weekdays immediately appeared, which made him feel that this ability was really good. There is also the ability to change clothes at any time.

It's just that Lin Ming doesn't understand, after he left the movie world, why did he come to this white space surrounded by him, instead of the earth where he lives?

You must know that you just lay down in bed and slept for a while, and as a result, you somehow entered that weird movie world. I was almost killed by the malice of that world.

But what is the purpose of this space in front of you, can anything be embodied?

Lin Ming thought for a moment, the white around him began to change, and then a room that seemed familiar to him appeared, and the layout inside was no different from before he went to bed.

This one-bedroom, one-bedroom, one-bedroom, one-kitchen, and one-bathroom junior suite with no 30 square meters is the rental house he has rented for three years in that cosmopolitan city called Tianhai City, which has spent 4K rent per month.

Therefore, the things that you are most familiar with can be immediately manifested as soon as you think about it. Although Lin Ming thinks about it seriously now, it is okay to give himself a set of mansions. But just out of the movie world, he needed a place to think about things that felt familiar to him.

And Lin Ming felt the need to recall which movie was in that world before. He habitually picked up the smartphone next to him, and then exclaimed as if he had discovered some new continent.

"It's impossible, how can there be wifi!" Then after Lin Ming clicked on the Tencent browser, he was really surprised when he found that he could really surf the Internet and browse the web. ”

Lin Ming looked at the wireless router placed on the table, and the indicator light of the network connection port on it was flashing.

"Well, you can get online, which means that there is a place in this space that can connect with the real world." This discovery made Lin Ming feel excited, but he soon discovered a problem.

"The phone can't communicate, which means you can only use the Internet. But chat software can be opened, but no message can be sent. And why is the webpage not refreshed, and there are no new messages on the forum, and the same is true for Weibo! And I can't watch the video.,The video clicks on and keeps getting stuck on one screen.。 ”

Lin Ming found that an hour had passed on the electronic watch in the room, and not even a second had passed in reality. The date display is still Jan 1, 2018 5:23:56.

From the beginning just now to the present, Lin Ming found that he had spent 1 hour in the space, and the real world had not changed even for a second.

This is probably when you just fell asleep?

Lin Ming recalled that before he crossed over, he happened to eat chicken with his friends in "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" for a night, and when it was 5 o'clock in the morning, he couldn't hold on, so he went offline.

This discovery made Lin Ming feel too cheating. In other words, no matter how long you stay in this space, even if it is a hundred years or a thousand years. The time of reality will still stay at the moment when you fall asleep.

However, Lin Ming is a person with relatively coarse nerves by nature, and he is more optimistic. So he quickly discovered such benefits.

As long as you find a way back, you don't have to worry about being marked as a missing person by the Public Security Bureau in reality if you stay in the space for too long. Otherwise, if it returns after a hundred years, what identity should it use?

"Well, at least you can still get online, albeit at a fixed time. But you can download things that already exist on the Internet, and you don't have to worry about what will happen in the future, and suddenly delete it for you, or you can browse old posts on forums. Of course, you can play stand-alone games, but you can't play online games. Any immediate, interactive network behavior cannot be done. After all, time is relatively static. But even that would be good. ”

Lin Ming experimented, the search engine can still be used, and although the time is fixed at that moment. But any news that happened before that moment, can be seen. So the search engine function has not lost its usefulness because time has stood still.

Although he didn't understand what the principle was, Lin Ming felt that it was better to search for which movie was better in the movie world he had experienced before.
