The girl’s voice flashed through Bai Xiang’s mind, but in front of him, there was only that cold arm.
The voice in his head and the image before his eyes kept alternating, impacting both Bai Xiang and all the viewers in the live stream.
Bai Xiang tried hard to calm his emotions, adjusting his breathing, constantly hypnotizing himself that this was just a ga.
He slowly crouched down, extending his hand.
However....
When Bai Xiang’s outstretched hand touched the girl’s palm.
That delicate yet cold sensation ca through.
Directly causing the emotions Bai Xiang was trying hard to control to collapse entirely.
The Virtual Body Sensing Pod’s one hundred percent sensation simulation.
Made him, even while internally repeating that this was just a ga, unable to suppress his emotions anymore, with a slight tremor in his voice:
"This is just a ga...."
Bai Xiang grasped the girl’s cold hand and looked up at the ruins ahead.
He rushed forward madly, clawing at the rubble, wanting to dig the girl out from the debris.
One hour....
Two hours....
The number of people in the live stream kept increasing, but no bullet comnts appeared.
Hundreds of thousands watched Bai Xiang as he dug through the rubble.
Watched as he dug out the girl, dug out the girl’s mother, dug out the girl’s father....
Dug out the girl’s younger brother....
Four complete corpses lay on the rubble.
Bai Xiang’s hands were covered in blood, as he sat paralyzed on the debris, staring at the four corpses, his mind in chaos.
The day gradually darkened, and the entire town was without a glimr of light.
The screen in the live stream also gradually turned into complete darkness.
Not a word was spoken through the night in the ga.
The next day, just as it barely got light in the ga, Bai Xiang, with the half of a shovel he found among the ruins, started digging pits on the ground. Once the four equally sized, aligned pits were dug out.
Bai Xiang buried the girl and her family’s bodies in them.
He used wooden boards from the ruins to simply make four tombstones with nas on them, standing them there:
Bai Xiang sat in front of the four standing tombstones, reaching for the damaged paper bag next to him.
Though the bread inside was cold, it still slled fragrant. Bai Xiang broke off a piece, putting it into his mouth. Even though he only tasted this flavor in the ga a few tis before, it sohow felt so familiar.
Just that he’ll never be able to eat it again.... Bai Xiang slowly broke the bread piece by piece.
In the distance.
A few soldiers ca over, one of them seeing Bai Xiang, showed a joyful expression, said sothing to the others, and then ran over to Bai Xiang:
"Thomas?"
"It’s really you, I thought you were blown up yesterday!"
"You’re really lucky."
Bai Xiang turned his head, it was Dale, who shared a room with him. Bai Xiang forced a bitter smile:
"Lucky?"
"I actually wish.... to give my luck to others."
Dale, hearing this, looked at the four standing tombstones, understood, and could only pat Bai Xiang’s shoulder:
"Nothing can be done.... this is war."
"Condolences."
Bai Xiang listened to Dale’s words, sowhat distracted, then spoke:
"Why is there war?"
Dale was puzzled, thinking:
"Hmm.... because the Imperial’s ambition is vast, wanting to rule the world, wanting to invade us."
Bai Xiang snapped back sowhat, looking at Dale:
"Then why does the Imperial have ambition?"
"Whose ambition is it?"
"Is it the ambition of the Imperial people? Is it the ambition of the Imperial soldiers?"
"Why should innocent people pay for their ambition?"
Dale was bewildered and had a bit of a headache listening to Bai Xiang’s string of questions:
"Uh.... don’t ask such profound questions, Thomas."
"I only went to middle school."
"How would I know the answers to these questions? We’re just supposed to follow orders."
Bai Xiang shook his head, saying:
"If we don’t understand anything."
"If one day we die, wouldn’t it be dying in vain, too frustrating."
Dale looked helpless, spreading his hands:
"Though I really want to answer you, my education doesn’t allow to do so."
"But you can ask what 1 2 equals."
Bai Xiang nodded, then said:
"Then one last question."
"Is there any way for us to beco the Air Force?"
Dale looked at Bai Xiang oddly, up and down:
"Thomas, you didn’t get bombed silly?"
"How can we beco the Air Force? Can you fly a plane?"
"I know you want revenge on that wicked fat guy Goring who chased from Dunkirk all the way here."
"But unfortunately, we are not the Air Force and have no way to beco the Air Force."
"It’s better to hope that one day the Federation captures Berlin, catching that bastard and the Imperial Leader, and torturing them severely."
Bai Xiang shook his head, saying:
"Alright, if not, then forget it."
"But.... I have a way to beco the Air Force, let them taste what getting bombed is like too."
Dale was full of questions:
"Huh?"
Bai Xiang extended his hand:
"Lend your gun."
Dale, sowhat puzzled, handed over the gun he was carrying:
"What are you going to do?"
Click click!
Bai Xiang skillfully loaded the gun, a move that startled Dale:
"Hey?!"
"Thomas, what are you up to....?!!!"
Bam——!
With a thud, Bai Xiang’s body slowly fell to the ground.
Leaving behind a stunned Dale:
"O! M! G!!!"
"Thomas?"
However.... in the silent air, there was no response.
Only the NPC corpse played by Bai Xiang and the half bag of bread clutched in his hand.
In the live stream.
Bai Xiang’s action startled the viewers in the live stream.
[What the hell? The strear went crazy?]
[Damn.... this ga is too damn heart-wrenching, driving people insane.]
[Can’t do it, call the police.... though this plot makes very sad too, the strear seems to have bigger issues.]
[It’s bad, truly gone mad.]
[Is it possible, the strear wants to reincarnate?]
Bai Xiang’s voice sounded:
"Don’t worry, brothers."
"I’m fine."
"It’s just that this identity can’t beco the Air Force, I’ll try restarting."
"Hasn’t soone already beco the Air Force?"
"I’ll see if I can randomly get it."
Bullet comnts floated across the live stream.
[No, are you really going to bomb Berlin?]
[Supporting the strear, revenge! Revenge!]
[Bombing Berlin isn’t exciting enough, directly bomb the Congress Hall.]
[Wouldn’t that drive the Empire crazy?]
[Strear, don’t get carried away, this is just a plot.]
[Exactly, others also got bombed in the ga, this ga is just absurd.]
Bai Xiang’s ga interface showed the start button:
"Yeah, it’s just a plot."
After Bai Xiang clicked start, the screen slowly brightened.
The sound of a train running could be heard, and in sight were soldiers, evidently part of the Federation Army heading sowhere for assembly at the start, but this identity clearly was not a pilot either.
Bai Xiang looked at himself without a gun, glanced around, the speeding train traveling through a valley, took a deep breath, continuously telling himself internally "this is just a ga... this is just a ga...."
Without anyone around reacting, he opened the window and jumped out.
Boom!
Restarted the ga.
The live stream fell silent.
[It’s bad, the strear got carried away and mad?!!!]
