Chapter 695: Sleep

Use space to jump into the tower, which has only one staircase and spirals up to the top.

Save me the time to climb the stairs and make another space jump to the room of the tower lamp.

The furnishings in the room are very simple, the wardrobe, desk, chair and bed, all single, the glass window has a layer of dust, and the outside scenery can no longer be seen.

There was a man lying on the single bed, breathing steadily and with a peaceful face, apparently sleeping.

But this person was not Gu Yu, but Ted, the furniture in the room, like the glass windows, was all covered with dust, and so was the floor, and even the quilt on Ted's cover was also covered with thick dust.

There were no footprints on the floor, and the ashes on the bed were evenly scattered, all of which indicated that he had slept for a long time and that no one had bothered him.

The cleanest in the room was Ted, his face and hands clean, and I looked closely at the bedding and pillows to make sure he hadn't just been lying on it recently.

There was a clear line of demarcation between Ash and his body, and it was amazing that Dust had avoided him and landed on something else.

I walked over to my desk, where there was a yellowed A4 piece of paper, and I pinched the corner of the paper to pick it up and shake off the dust.

The first thing I saw was the inscription, and I immediately noticed the word 'no pen' and knew that it was a suicide note.

But Ted didn't die, he just fell asleep, of course it could be that he didn't know he couldn't die, I walked around the room and he didn't wake up, he slept too deeply, which was a bit unusual.

The suicide note said that he had taken a lot of poison and was about to end his life, and he used the space castle to set up a camp, but as the days passed, he felt that there was no point in living like this, and there was no hope for mankind, and he was tormented by depression for three years, and finally decided to seek relief.

Ted also writes that the Space Castle was given to him by 'him', hoping that he can build a shelter in the name of 'Lei Feng'.

I estimated that the 'he' that Ted said might be Gu Yu, and Gu Yu gave the Space Castle to Ted, which means that we won this round of the game.

Ted used the Spatial Castle to build the Vault, and it was still in my name, which is why it was mistaken for my lover.

I put down the suicide note, walked over to the bedside and probed Ted's brain with mental strength, and his brain waves were normal.

I unleashed a little mental attack to stimulate his brain, and the first time it didn't respond, I tried two more times.

The third blow slammed into his head, Ted's fingers moved, and when I saw a door, I gave him another blow.

Ted groaned and raised his hand to his head, and he sat up sharply, choking on the dust from the sheets and coughing.

"Ted." I called out to him, lest he suddenly be startled at the sight of someone standing by the bed.

Ted opened his dusty eyes, rubbed them vigorously, and saw who I was, and immediately jumped off the bed.

"Lei Feng?!" He exclaimed in surprise.

"It's me." I stared at his outstretched hand, he noticed my gaze and quickly retracted his hand, I saw that his movement was trying to pinch me.

"Is it really you?" The years had left a mark on Ted's face, and it was said that he should not have aged so quickly, perhaps because of environmental factors, or psychological factors, he looked like a middle-aged man who was almost forty years old.

"That's right, but I'm here in time."

"Of course, of course you are... Yes, crossing, you're wearing back from the past, oh my! Ted suddenly became agitated, and he ran to the window, pushed open the window and looked out.

But the light in his eyes soon dimmed, and the outside world was still the same as he was before he went to bed.

"You've failed, you've failed." Ted retreated to his desk and sat down in a dusty chair.

"I came through the game we were in, not the one that was going to change history."

"Games?"

"Well, the reward is the one in the Space-Time Castle."

"Oh, that's it, it turns out... What you see in the game is a futuristic world. ”

I heard Ted's words a little strange, so I asked, "Didn't I tell you about the game after the game?" ”

Ted shook his head: "No, the scene that the player enters is different, but it is a desperate environment, you only said that you have met Aunt Peach, and you don't say anything else." ”

I asked, "What about Gu Yu?" He's not in the same scene as me? ”

Ted recalled, "He was in a scene with the Grim Reaper, and the two of them became friends because of that collaboration. ”

I looked at Ted and cautiously asked, "What about you?" ”

Ted smiled with relief and said, "Naturally, I went back in time and went through a dark childhood again, and that was my only weakness. ”

I nodded: "It seems that you have overcome the shadow of childhood. ”

Ted looked out the window, the sky was still as red as rotten persimmons, and beyond the city was a wilderness with a howling wind, and no grass was growing.

"At that time, if the Game Association had sent me here, I would definitely not have been able to bear it, and I finally realized that the most terrible thing in life is not how miserable the past was, but that there is no hope for the future."

"What about the Game Association, what's going on with the Biochemical Station? Can't the things you exchange points for help human beings improve the environment? "I asked a barrage of questions.

Ted just shook his head, and finally said: "After the outbreak of the biochemical station, the game association withdrew from this world, they took back the terminal, and all the points were cleared, and we relied on the weapons and equipment that we exchanged in the past to ensure the safety of the avoidance." ”

The more he spoke, the lower he became, and he sighed before he said, "If it weren't for those things, we would have been trapped here the year after the war, but those things will run out one day, now, hum." ”

"I look at the people outside, it seems that life is quite peaceful, and it is not enough to run out of ammunition and food."

"The population is declining year by year, the fertility rate is low, there is food, there is unpolluted farmland in the castle, poultry can be raised, but there is nothing else. In another 10 or 20 years, human beings will go back to primitive times, wearing clothes made of leaves, using stone tools and bone knives. The most desperate thing is not that, the survivors are more or less affected by chemical weapons, the birth rate is low, the population is decreasing every year, just think about it, this will one day become a dead city. ”

Ted said sadly, and my heart fluctuated a little, but I didn't like to bask in sadness, so I asked, "Who started the biochemical warfare?" ”

"Everywhere, I mean big camps all over the world, fighting for resources, who knows what they think, crazy."

Ted paused as he spoke, and then said, "You can't solve it, since you came from the past, and you know what the future holds, but when you go back, you can't do anything, and the ending is still like this, isn't it?" ”

"Perhaps, just a catastrophe will break out, and then a series of misfortunes will follow, I just want to solve the first one."

"Yes, you said that, I remember, at the end of that game, you said something like that, saying that you want to cut off the source of the disaster."

With a sarcastic smile on Ted's face, he looked at me and said, "But you failed, and it's obvious that if you had succeeded, the world wouldn't be what it is today." ”

Of course I thought about it, but I didn't want to dwell on the result, I just wanted to find the reason for the failure.

"How much do you know about the fact that I traveled back in time to prevent the first catastrophe?" I asked.

"Well, I know a little, not much, I've been in touch with you all since the game." Ted fell into a longer memory this time.

He recalled for a long time before continuing: "After that game, you lost interest in the game, but you started to kill zombies, exchange points, and then exchange things in the points warehouse. ”

When Ted said this, his eyes suddenly widened, as if he had discovered something, and he slapped his thigh, "That's right, you traveled to the future in the game, met me, had this conversation, you know that the game association will take back the terminal and empty the points in the future, so you take advantage of their still existence, desperately save points and exchange things." ”

"Your points quickly surpassed the Grim Reaper, my God, I still remember the way you killed zombies, I thought at the time, you have been wandering in the middle and upper echelons of the standings, it turns out that it is not that you are not strong, it is that you are not serious enough."

I've been distracted from doing something else, and I'm not a full-time zombie killer, so my points naturally go up and down.

"When you get serious, the final number of points is the sum of our top three, can you imagine, and then you redeem a thing, at that time we were all wondering, why did you redeem that thing, now I finally understand."

"What did I redeem?"

"The space-time gate is the kind of gate that we use to enter the arena when we participate in special game competitions."

"The one that glows?"

"Yes, that's it, it's the most expensive thing in the warehouse, no one has ever changed it, and there's only one."

"And after that?"

"I didn't contact you for a long time after that, and when I contacted you, Brother Gu told me that you were gone."

"Bio-Warfare happened after I'm gone?"

"Yes, you have been gone for a year, and there is no news, Brother Gu went out to look for you, and the result is ......"

As a result, the biochemical war broke out, the camp in Gaishi was destroyed, and Ah Ying and Long Tao were all killed.

I guess there must be something special about Gu Yu that helped him dodge the biochemical attack, but it was too late.

Who would have thought that a bigger catastrophe would suddenly struck?

Because everything is getting formal, Gu Yu and I didn't let Long Tao and them use the space castle, after all, the camp was built by Ah Ying and Long Tao themselves, and they poured their hearts and souls into it.

My heart ached, not for myself, but for Gu Yu, I can't imagine what kind of blow he suffered at that time.

"What about him? He gave you the castle, where did he go? As soon as I opened my mouth, I realized that my voice was a little choked, and I hurriedly cleared my throat in disguise.

"He said he was going to look for you, the ends of the earth, and he wouldn't stop if he couldn't find you."

"Didn't I travel back in time, where is he going to find me?"

"He believes that you will come back, even if the mission fails, you will definitely come back, but he doesn't know where the landing site is, so he wants to look for it."
