Gate of Apocalypse

Zhao Yun slowly opened his eyes and saw a green tree crown. The dawn of the dawn spilled from the leaf gap, stabbing her eyes closed.

But she jumped up one by one and looked around vigilantly.

“You're finally awake.” Chen Xiaolian sat not far from her, holding a fast food pizza in her hand and eating it in large bites. When Zhao Yun woke up, he grabbed a piece from the pizza box in front of him and handed it to Zhao Yun: “Eat first, ask what you want to ask, and then ask after you eat. ”

Zhao Yun glanced around, nodded, didn't say much, took the pizza handed over by Chen Xiaocai, bit, slightly frowned, moved his hand and looked down.

“Not in your appetite?” Chen Xiaocai laughed: “You haven't really eaten this. ”

“It's okay.” Zhao Yun shook his head and regained his pale expression. After three or two bites of the pizza in his hand, he inexplicably reached out and grabbed a piece from the box and continued to shove it into his mouth.

“It's the first time I've seen a woman as beautiful as you eat so much and swallow so much.” Chen Xiaolian smiled and pushed the box to Zhao Yun's face: “It's all yours. ”

Zhao Yunshan took off the pizza in the box and rubbed the oil from his hands on the cape. He looked up at Chen Xiaolian: “Are they... all dead? ”

“Who? Ah, the cavalry?” Chen Xiaoliang reacted immediately: “I didn't see them with my own eyes, but they ended up surrounded by them all, so... they should all be dead in battle. ”

“Hmm.” Zhao Yun finished listening and still had no expression on his face. He gently nodded and stood up.

“You... have nothing else to ask me?” Chen Xiaocai blinked: “You should have no memory of me right now. And these things in our hands, and that big guy back there... you probably haven't seen. Why don't you look at us like you're not even curious? ”

“I don't have time for curiosity.” Zhao Yun shook his head. “Where is this? How far is it from Jiangling? ”

“Are you going to find your hero Liu Bei?” Chen Xiaocai laughed: “My advice is, forget it. It doesn't make any sense. ”

Zhao Yun ignored Chen Xiaolian and looked up at the height of the sun, turning his head and walking away: “If you don't say anything, I'll find it myself. ”

“Hey, will you listen to me?” Chen Xiaolei sighed helplessly: “This is all a lie, you know? ”

“Fake?” Zhao Yun stopped and turned to look at Chen Xiaolian: “What do you mean? ”

“Chen Xiaoliang.” Chen Xiaoliang pointed at himself: “We've met before. On the other side of the world. It's you, let me find you. And now everything that's happening here, your lord, your men, everything you remember —— it's a lie! ”

Zhao Yun sneered and looked at the idiot's face. He turned around and continued to walk.

“If you want to hear me out and insist on going to Liu Bei, I can send you.” Chen Xiaolian stall: “Roddy, fly around and show her. ”

Roddy was sitting farther away against the tidal warplanes, hearing Chen Xiaocai, nodded, jumped into the hatch and started the engine quickly.

A slightly untraceable buzz struck and tidal warplanes rose, circling at a high speed in the air and falling back to the ground.

From the moment the fighter took off, Zhao Yun's eyes changed. He stared dead at the fighter in the air and couldn't believe the images he saw.

“Machinery?” Zhao Yun lowered his head and looked back at Chen Xiaolian: “How fast can this thing fly? ”

“Soon. It won't take half an hour to find Liu Bei.” Chen Xiaocai laughed: “Now would you like to sit down and listen to me slowly? ”

……

“So we saved you and brought you here.” It took Chen Xiaolian an hour to tell Zhao Yun all the details about the awakeners, players, loopholes and copies.

From the beginning, Zhao Yun listened quietly, without interrupting Chen Xiaoliang.

Until Chen Xiaocai finished, she nodded slowly: “So, you mean, my loyalty to the hero was fabricated by something called the system? ”

“was ever present.” Chen Xiaoliang gave it some thought: “It's just that... now Liu Bei and Cao Cao in this copy are just the NPCs arranged by the system. Your loyalty should be to that real Liu Bei, not... this NPC. ”

“If all you're saying is true, then the hero, he's just an NPC, right?” Zhao Yun smiled faintly: “Everything you said is strange but reasonable. Add that...”

She pointed to tidal warplanes not far away: "Big stuff. I'm willing to believe you. But how are you gonna get me out of here? And the girl you're looking for, Joe Joe, I don't know where she is. ”

“I don't know either.” Chen Xiaocai smiled bitterly: “Your situation is far too different from the white one. He, at the time, had no consciousness of his own, just a puppet of the system. And you have your own thoughts and memories. When I used a copy of the prop tiger character, he automatically became my soul of war. But for you… the same does not seem to work. ”

“Let me see what you say. He might know something.” Zhao Yun thought about it.

Chen Xiaoliang hesitated for a moment.

At the end of the world, as soon as he saw Zhao Yun, Baiyi went mad and fought in front of him. Now release it again, in case you fight like this again...

“What are you waiting for?” Zhao Yun frowned.

“Okay.” Chen Xiaoliang took a deep breath: “This guy... I can't completely control it either. So if he attacks you later, you have to be careful. ”

Zhao Yunjiu smiled lightly and nodded.

“So...” Chen Xiaocai carefully took two steps and released the white.

A figure in an ancient robe appeared on the ground when a black gas condensed and spread out again.

Bai had just appeared, his eyes locked on Zhao Yun's body, but Chen Xiaoliang was relieved that, this time, he did not do it, but stared at Zhao Yun so silently.

“Are you just out of the blue? Do you know me?” Zhao Yun looked up and down for nothing: “When you left the end of the world, you told me to come to you. I didn't find you, but we meet now. ”

“You... are more complete... than me... have been tampered with...” After watching Zhao Yun for half a day, he finally slowly opened his mouth, one word at a time: “Copy… complete…… get… released…"

After intermittent words, his eyes closed in white.

Chen Xiaocai questioned Bai several times in a row, but he seemed stiff and could no longer speak.

Under the helplessness of Chen Xiaoliang, he could only put white into the tiger charm first, but his eyebrows wrinkled tightly.

“He said... I don't seem to understand.” Chen Xiaoliang frowned: “Finish the copy and get released, what does that mean? ”

“Didn't you say that every copy has a mission objective? Once I've accomplished my mission goals, I'll be out of control of the copy. It's hard to understand?” Zhao Yun glanced at Chen Xiaolian.

“I don't think I've told you what the mission goal of this copy is, have I?” Chen Xiaocai smiled bitterly: “Yes... kill you! ”

Zhao Yun stood still and laughed equally bitterly.

……

“Idol, you are an idol...”

Roddy rubbed his hands and carefully took two steps forward, but he was still a few meters away from Zhao Yun: “I've admired you since I was a child, when I saw the Three Kingdoms! Long slope seven in and seven out, single-handedly save the young master, it's a handsome bomb! But I never thought you'd be such a beautiful woman! ”

When Chen Xiaolian and Zhao Yun talked, let Roddy and others stay away for a while so they can talk alone. Now to understand what it means to say in vain, we're here again.

“Come on, we'll talk about it later.” Chen Xiaolian punched Roddy in the shoulder: “I just said something to Zhao Yun in vain, but I couldn't figure out what he meant. ”

“So it's time to play my wits?” Roddy slapped his chest in a hurry: “Sister Yun, put 10,000 hearts into it! Meteor Squad think-tank division, that's me! No worse than your Zhuge Kongming! ”

“Roddy, my brother, is not normal, but the critical moment is reliable.” Chen Xiaolei smiled, introduced Zhao Yun to the team members and repeated what he had just said.

“Complete the mission?” Roddy stared wide-eyed: "But... the task the system sent out was to kill... kill her! ”

“That's why I want you to brainstorm.” Chen Xiaolian: “Literally, yes, but I dare not take the risk. If we do this and Yunnan is dead, where are we going to regret it? ”

“And... I don't think Sister Yun will let us kill her honestly, right?” Roddy smiled at Yunnan.

“Logically… it doesn't make sense either.” Tire Sinking Channel: “The system released such a task precisely because Zhao Yun's presence was detected, so many awakeners were assembled together to enter the copy and try to kill her. If she dies in a copy and is freed instead, then why is the system doing all this? ”

“Let's go over it again… every word needs to be studied carefully.” Roddy Wang to Chen Xiaocai: “You are more complete than me, tampered with, the copy is released... that's all, right, little face? ”

“There's nothing to study up ahead, is there?” Chen Xiaolian sighed: “You are more complete than I am. You should mean that you lost most of your wisdom while Zhao Yun lost his memory, but at least he still has a complete personality and ability to think. It was tampered with, referring to the fact that she had been arranged with new memories and that her strength had been greatly diminished. Then… the copy was completed and released… I could not think of any explanation other than the literal meaning. And... I don't think I'm a dumb riddler. ”

“Could it... not be this copy?” Spare tire interception: “Maybe if we finish another copy, we can get Zhao Yun out? ”

“First, I've never heard of two different independent copies that can interact with each other. Secondly, even if that's the case, how do we get out of this copy if we don't do our job?” Tires shake their heads.

Everyone, except Zhao Yun, kept their heads down and thought about it for half a day, but there was still no half result.

“You are more complete than I am, tampered with, copy done released... you are more complete than I am, tampered with, copy done released...” Roddy closed his eyes and repeatedly said this sentence in his mouth. I don't know how long I've been reading it, but suddenly I yelled and jumped: “I get it! I get it!”

“What do you understand?” Chen Xiaolian looks at Roddy with surprise: “Say it! ”

“The guy whitewashed his mouth and gasped, so... you broke his break wrong!” Roddy punched the ground excitedly: “The three words that were tampered with were not meant by Sister Yun, but by this copy! ”

“Makes sense.” The tire thought a little and understood what Roddy meant: "Wasn't the original mission goal of this copy to kill Zhao Yun? ”

“Yes!” said Roddy excitedly. “Think about it. This copy would be too easy if it weren't for Yunnan's strength! Cao Cao army has tens of thousands of people, and the awakeners were thrown directly into Cao Cao's camp, but Liu Bei across the street is a group of old and weak soldiers. With this natural advantage, there is no difficulty at all.

So in the original setup, there may also be a Zhao Yun, but that Zhao Yun is just a virtual NPC, and it is not the Yun Sister we have before us, let alone the target of the task. If you want to make it a little difficult for players and awakeners, the opposing party cannot be Liu Beijun, but Cao Cao Jun! ”

“It is also possible that the positions of the two parties were divided.” Chen Xiaocai added: “Remember the London copy? Both William and Harold were systematically assigned players and awakeners in the battle for the throne. And in the copy of Jerusalem, we became the only team to join the Darkness Camp, while the other participants were the Light Camp. ”

“Yes, that makes more sense.” Roddy accepted Chen Xiaocai's amendment to his guess: “Therefore, joining Liu Bei's side is more dangerous, but the benefits may be greater. Joining Cao Cao is less difficult, but the reward for completing it will be considerably less. Upon completion of the task by either party, the copy shall be declared closed. That's what this copy should look like! ”

“So... here comes the problem.” Chen Xiaoliang frowned: “From the tips we received, the mission was only aimed at killing Zhao Yun. Now that the copy has been tampered with, how are we going to finish it? ”

“I do feel… that since I have said this in vain, it should be done directly.” Roddy Flight Express: “I guess the system adds a task to this copy, but it doesn't cancel the original task, it just blocks its related prompts. Then these tasks become the equivalent of… hidden tasks! We won't see it in the message tips, but the same can be done! However, this hidden task will not be notified until it is complete. ”

“Not 100% likely, but it's already worth a try.” Chen Xiaolei nodded: “Find Jojo first, then complete the task and finish this copy. However..."

He raised his head and smiled bitterly at Zhao Yun: “Would you mind if I said we were going to kill Liu Bei? ”
