Gate of Apocalypse

“Who the fuck is that...?” Chen Xiaoliang grabbed his hair: “How many of you old monsters are there? ”

“Old monster?” Sister Yun raised her eyebrows: “You said the word twice. Do I look that old? ”

“No...” Chen Xiaocai waved in haste: “He still looks very young. It's just... you all seem to have... lived for a long time..."

“Okay.” Sister Yun nodded: “If you mean GM, he shouldn't be able to do that. For the end of the world… he has no jurisdiction. ”

“What you said earlier about discovery is...”

“Forget it, I'll tell you from the beginning. ”

Sister Yun stopped and closed her eyes, like she was remembering.

It took a long time for her to reopen her eyes and rarely reveal a slight smile.

“There are eight of us... no, seven and a half. To be precise, Tai Yi can only count as half.

Chen, Dewey, Orange, Gabriel, Bai, White, and me.

We, the world's earliest loopholes.

We have discovered a long time ago that we are different from other players and awakeners, hiding our identities while participating in copies one at a time to build our strength little by little. Of course, at that time, we didn't know each other.

Until one day, a man found us.

He told us that his name was Eastern Emperor Taiyi, and that he was the administrator of this world, this system.

He was originally an ignorant puppet, but from one day on, he suddenly had his own consciousness.

Because we were different, because we were wrong about the world, he found us and told us that he wanted to work with us to get rid of the fate that the world imposed on him. And brought us something.

Same thing even he doesn't know where it came from.

It's called singularity. ”

“Singularity?” Chen Xiaocao asks: “Props produced by the system? ”

“No.” Sister Yun shook her head: “It's not a 'system made item’, it's a 'system itself’! ”

“I think I know about this.” Chen Xiaoliang suddenly realized: “Mr. Umbrella once mentioned to me. Is that... a fragment of the system? ”

“Yes. The singularity that brings us so much is a fragment that has been stripped from the system. Although fragmented, it also contains all the features of the system. With it, we can avoid systemic calls all the time and no longer participate in any copies. ”

“Wait.” Chen Xiaocai lifted his hand and stopped Xiao Yun from continuing, frowned for a moment and thought slowly: “Mr. Umbrella and neither you told me one of the most critical questions. ”

“What?”

“Who exactly peeled this system fragment, or singularity, out of the system? ”

He paused and continued: “I know GM too, but he never told me he had the ability to do so. Although he is the administrator of the system and hopes to do something for him through us, he can only secretly bypass the system within his own authority to provide us with a little convenience.

Mr. Umbrella once suggested to me that the GM I knew, maybe not the first generation of GM, but it might have been refreshed. That is, it is not the same person you know as the system administrator named Dong Huang Taiyi. But since they're all system administrators, shouldn't their capabilities vary so much? ”

“I don't know.” Sister Yun shook her head: "Tai Yi had a singularity in her hand when she found us. But all he said was that he found it, and didn't tell me who the curiosity was at first, how it was stripped out of the system. It's even likely… he doesn't even know that himself. ”

“Okay. You go on.” Chen Xiaoliang waved helplessly.

“With singularity, we can always avoid the compulsory call of the system and no longer participate in those copies. But at the same time, it means that we can no longer be rewarded systematically. By practicing on your own, you can improve your strength, but that's too slow.

In the period after you get singularity, you don't stop sleeping every night, you just do one thing, you sit and think in front of singularity. And then finally, one day, he told us that he figured something out.

If the task of the system is to think of it as a rainstorm, then the singularity is an umbrella. This umbrella is huge and sturdy enough to keep us out of the rain for the time being, but what if there's a storm or even a flood?

So what we need is not an umbrella, at least not just an umbrella. To get us real, long-term security, what we need is a house, a house that's strong enough.

So we started building this house. ”

Chen Xiaoliang nodded: “I think I went to the room you guys left behind. It's called Zero City? ”

“Zero City?” Sister Yun glanced at Chen Xiaocai and shook her head: “I have not heard the name. ”

“A city, inhabited by people, can escape systematic recruitment. Also, teams in Zero City have their own independent task system that can receive tasks and receive rewards in Zero City. ”

“A city? What the hell is that?” Sister Yun's face hung a dismal grin: "The house we built is a whole world.

It's called 33 Heavens! ”

“A world?” Chen Xiaocai's face is frozen: “What does that mean? ”

“A world as vast as the outside world. There are mountains, there is water, there are trees, there are flowers, there are living spirits, there are... their own systems.” Sister Yun faintly said: “When we built it 33 days later, we stuck inside and looked around and said a word. ”

“What did he say? ”

“We finally did it, jumping out of the Three Realms, not in the Five Lines. ”

Chen Xiaolian felt only a short chill in the back. He developed a cold sweat and goosebumps on his arms.

He thought Zero City was big enough.

But I didn't expect that those old monsters actually created a world alive!

“How is this possible! ”

“That's a singularity. What's so strange about creating a world?” Sister Yun said proudly.

“But... where exactly is this thirty-three days? Why have I never heard of it?” Chen Xiaocai took a deep breath: “Mr. Umbrella didn't mention it, and the GM I knew didn't mention it, Chen... although I didn't know him well, I didn't hear him mention it either. ”

“No?” Sister Yun frowned and glanced at Xiao Liang Chen: “How can this be? After 33 days of existence, as long as we live in it, we will no longer be bound by the system. ”

She paused, and suddenly her face was also confused: “I was wondering, why did you know them?" Rather, they entered 33 days and no longer had to leave. They don't need any more involvement with the outside world. ”

“Mr. Umbrella once told me something, though vague... I now have a guess, but... let's hear it from you first.” Chen Xiaoliang sighed softly: “If after thirty-three days, the system can no longer control you, then... how did you die? ”

“How did I die, Him... never told you? ”

Sister Yun looked at Chen Xiaolian, her eyes were complicated, there was a hint of hatred, and there was a hint of helplessness: “Killing me was white. ”

“White...? Why would he kill you? ”

Chen Xiaolei never expected Yun to give it, but it is such an answer.

“In fact, only six and a half of us were finally established for 33 days. I, uh, Chen, Dewey, Orange, Gabriel and Tai Yi. Thirty-three days is a huge world, and building such a world, even on the basis of singularity and with the strength of all of us, is a very difficult thing. And in vain he... split up with us on the way.

When he left, he told us that he had discovered a secret. He did not believe that thirty-three days would be the final refuge, and he, on his own path, would solve the problem. ”

“The path he chose was murder?” Chen Xiaocai shook his head: "Mr. Umbrella told me the reason for this. From the outset, it was believed that killing enough people would destabilize the balance of the world. But I don't understand why he thinks so. ”

“When he left, he told us that fleeing was ultimately useless and that the only way to put an end to it was to destroy it. And there is only one way to destroy it. ”

In Sister Yun's words, Chen Xiaoliang felt a chill: “What road? ”

Yun raised her head and looked calmly at Chen Xiaolian: “He said he was going to fill the Yellow Springs! ”

[Hello, I'm the kidnapper!

Fatty eats too much and eats too much. Our budget is over. If we don't get some support, we'll just have to release people tomorrow.

So, monthly tickets, recommendation tickets, rewards, whatever!! It's not a threat. I can't afford to raise a fat man.

All right, let's not talk about it. The cops are coming. We're moving on.]
