I have heard the ending of an ancient story.
On that day, the ice would lt and flow like spring water, and spring would co to .
On that day, all things would awaken in the wind, and flowers would open their sleepy eyes.
I heard the magnificent yet gentle voice of civilization—
It was the sound of its bones growing and trembling.
...
Su Ming’an stood up in the lake water.
The figure of Hui Bai faded away in silence, leaving only Xiao Na standing there.
"So, humanity still has five billion seven hundred and sixty-seven million two thousand six hundred and nine chances..." Su Ming’an’s fingers glided over the black and white piano keys, from high notes to low notes.
No wonder Xiao Na insisted earlier: If Su Ming’an learned the truth, he couldn’t take everyone back to hide in Yuanyuan’s dream.
Because for Xiao Na, the Zhai Star people collectively hiding in Yuanyuan’s dream was the ending she couldn’t accept. The Zhai Star people ran away to dream, leaving the world ga as a big ss, making Xiao Na’s "billion-world ga" wager a re boast. The hardworking Boss Rabbit had moved more than four billion bricks, only to find all its clients suddenly gone, earning nothing.
As long as Su Ming’an didn’t choose the dream ending, any other developnt would not leave Xiao Na with nothing.
Thus, she induced Su Ming’an to discard the chocolate candy.
She succeeded.
At this mont, Su Ming’an felt a pulling sensation.
"The Spiritual Dream-Maker wants to pull you away," Xiao Na said. "You ca here relying on Her dream; I arrived halfway through. Now, She realizes sothing is wrong and wants to pull you away."
Su Ming’an glanced at the lake surface, where the chocolate candy had turned into light brown water.
"Of course, you have no choice now. Even if you respond to Her call, without the dream dium, you cannot return," Xiao Na’s eyes glinted coldly.
Su Ming’an paced around the piano, walking slowly. Then, he turned his gaze to the starry sky.
...Sorry, Yuanyuan.
He whispered softly, not responding to Yuanyuan’s call.
He never intended to return.
His thoughts were clear—this ti, everyone died to the destruction by the Master of the End of All Things. Not long after, the world ga would undergo a reset, starting the next cycle.
The goal of the world ga is to create the "Book of the Universe." All instances are worlds waiting for redemption. Once they all achieve a perfect TE, the "Book of the Universe" will be complete, bringing the most perfect future.
This ti, he had cleared the first ten instances, leaving only Luowasha. But this doesn’t an that Luowasha is the only one in the universe left unredeed; it only ans that within the range the world ga road, only Luowasha remains unredeed.
From his perspective, the "Book of the Universe" is an unrealistic hope. The civils of the universe are countless; how is it possible for each to achieve a perfect TE? Moreover, even if a world like the Ruined World achieves a perfect TE, it will soon fall into the sa predicant as The World of Old Days again; redemption is not eternal.
If humanity wants to free itself from this endless reincarnation, the only ways are: 1. To detach from the world ga. 2. To break the billion-ga wager between Xiao Na and humanity. He cannot keep thinking about "how to complete the Book of the Universe"; this is a ntal trap.
In this light, entering Yuanyuan’s dream is indeed a good choice, except for not being able to know the truth...
However, it is now too late; he cannot go back and make another choice. Moreover, the future might hold sothing better.
Su Ming’an murmured, "End the loop..."
End the loop.
This is currently the most important, most human-saving, most situation-liberating thod.
In a mont of distraction, enlightennt flashed through his mind, and suddenly, goosebumps covered his skin:
...
["If—if I must end the BE3030 loop!!!??" Noel clenched his collar and roared.]
...
Before his eyes, it was as if stars were spinning, his vision sank into emptiness.
The sound of the lake water lapping echoed over and over, pouring into his ears. Su Ming’an’s gaze was fixed heavily on the black and white keys, as if seeing faint gold.
...So, this is what that sentence ans, Noel Agnini.
As early as when you toppled the blocks and bid farewell, you began contemplating these matters?
...
[What if this number truly represents sothing??? Could it be that by staying here forever, we could escape this mire???]
[BE, 3030.]
[What exactly does it represent?]
[Is there an endless thod of ending?]
[Or does it represent a more terrifying truth?]
[Noel Agnini beca aware of the vastness of the world as early as the start of the world ga—the ultimate solution to all the universe’s questions, simply staying on the ground is hard to solve.]
...
Noel.
You know that even if you achieved victory this ti, you might continue to fall into loops.
So, you decided to run towards the Master of the End of All Things and the Seventh Thrones, looking to solve the fundantal problem by terminating the world ga’s cycle?
You think "BE3030" is a cycle count?
Su Ming’an tilted his head, closed his eyes, rembering Noel’s final stance—Noel, torn apart by his claws, his flesh and blood exploding like rose petals, two High Dinsions following the descent, destroying Luowasha.
So, there actually exists a possibility...even now, Noel still is not dead. For Noel, who is favored by the High Dinsions, bodily death ans nothing.
However, even if their two goals align, they ultimately walk different paths, as the Master of the End of All Things is undoubtedly an enemy.
In Su Ming’an’s thoughts, he saw the follow-up of Hui Bai and others...
...
[In the early First Epoch, Luowasha was not a complete planet, but half. Half a planet can certainly not live long; after a long cosmic drift, Luowasha found another complete habitable planet and decided to migrate collectively to the new planet.]
...
Hui Bai set off with a hundred million people.
Before leaving, he used his "Witch" authority to plant a seed.
A witch plants seeds, nurtures growth, and creates life.
After Hui Bai left, the seed grew.
This seed carried Hui Bai’s high hopes, holding a part of her energy, authority, mory, and emotion. It was Hui Bai’s last guardian for the billion people. Since it was born within the World Ga, the World Ga regarded it as a new cell of its organs, integrating it into its body.
Thus, the seed beca part of the World Ga, part of the system.
It silently watched everything, observed the ebb and flow of the instances, and noted the players’ joys and sorrows. Due to Hui Bai’s emotions, it developed the thought, "Why can I only watch? I want to play with them too."
The words Su Ming’an once received from the system, "I favor you," were exactly what the seed said.
Gradually, the seed realized that although it was fused with the World Ga, it ultimately belonged to the artificial creation of the Player Hui Bai. It could separate part of itself into the instances. Of course, it wasn’t a Zhai Star person and couldn’t be a player, but it could be an NPC.
Around the 150th reincarnation, when the World Ga was strolling through the universe, it finally arrived at the developing Luowasha, incorporating it into the instance. The seed was overjoyed, as it could finally see its father—Hui Bai.
A billion humans and a hundred million humans finally intersected like rivers once more.
However, the seed discovered—sohow, Hui Bai and the others had lost their previous mories! They had beco Red Tower Scoundrels, Arrogant Dragon Emperors, sickly undead... they even forgot they ca from Zhai Star. Those uninford even resented the descending players, treating these people from their holand as Luowasha’s invaders!
What happened after Hui Bai left? The seed couldn’t figure it out and decided to leave its main body in the World Ga, to continue rging with it, then separate part of itself to beco an NPC in Luowasha.
Of course, like Xiao Na, the separated part couldn’t use the World Ga’s authority or reveal any secrets, it could only make minor moves.
—And so, the seed ca to Luowasha.
Initially, it didn’t take shape and wandered this prosperous land, observing everything its father created, observing the myriad aspects of human life, observing the players’ courage and cowardice.
Until the 2928th reincarnation, it t a player.
The player had pitch-black hair and eyes and appeared very fragile, yet in every reincarnation, he demonstrated great perseverance, struggling to the end in the face of difficult situations. He didn’t always achieve the best results, but most of the ti, he ranked in the top ten, even first.
The seed liked this player very much. Gradually, every ti the Luo Washa instance started, it would silently follow this player, observing him.
It gradually learned his na—"Su Ming’an."
Learned of his never-yielding courage.
Learned of his persistence in never surrendering in the face of adversity.
Learned of his skill in playing the piano, his love for strawberries and mushroom soup, and how his brows and eyes would show restrained joy after completing tasks.
Once you fully understand this young man, it’s hard not to be attracted to him.
It began to develop the thought, "Not just watch him, perhaps, maybe, I can try to contact him, approach him, understand him..."
One night, the seed chose to take a form.
It knew he liked white hair, so it took the form of a white-haired girl.
It knew he liked calm and steady people, so it set its own external personality as calm and steady.
It knew he favored NPCs with important identities, so it chose to take form under the World Tree, timing it well to obtain the identity of the Rin Clan.
It gave itself a nice na.
—Xi Li.
After taking form as an NPC, to avoid being expelled from the World Tree, it exhibited its obedience and acceptance of all. The World Tree assigned it the race of the Demon Race, and it accepted this; being adopted by humans, bullied, and discriminated against, it accepted this.
Until one day, it t on the lawn a purple-haired minstrel.
He had beautiful hair like a windmill, eyes as brilliant as sunlight, lips that spoke moving poetry, and eyes like the stars in the sky.
It instantly recognized this was the reincarnated second seat of Luo Washa, Sique Olivius, who had turned into an ordinary little magpie.
No, not that ordinary... Sique’s birth wasn’t an impoverished reincarnation. His soul still carried so original "Genesis" authority from his high-dinsional form, so not long after his reincarnation, Luo Washa developed a "Genesis" system. Just by moving his pen slightly, he made strawberry crisp float, made apples fly into the sky. Checking the Genesis interface, he’d find he was the continent’s top-rated "C-level creator" initially.
The seed knew all this but had to remain silent. To avoid being expelled by the World Tree, it had to keep itself like an ordinary person, even adjusting its thinking pattern to be close to an ordinary girl.
It intentionally approached Sique, initially wanting to gain so benefit from high-dinsional remnants, but found, during their interaction, his poetic talent and charm.
...It turned out not all the organizers were bad people. So were truly very bad, but so were just helplessly caught in the World Ga.
The seed, experiencing life for the first ti, began to have expectations and affections. It started to genuinely like literature and poetry. This was the first ti it started liking sothing, and it made a promise with the handso purple-haired minstrel—next ti, please listen to my new poem.
...
[She endured bullying at school and dostic violence because of her origin. At this ti, "Olivius" contacted her, rescuing her from despair. The two frequently sat together on the grass, reciting poetry, and in tranquility and happiness, she gradually started to believe... Life will surely get better, as long as she was obedient and well-behaved, those who humiliated her would gradually realize she wasn’t that evil.]
[At this point, insert a key plot—after once reciting a poem, she gave "Olivius" a white flower, a flower she secretly tended to every night. She invited him, asking if he could bring a stringed instrunt to accompany her next ti reciting poetry? "Olivius" agreed to her.]
...
The minstrel agreed to it.
But when it went back, its family, worried about its Demon Race origin, broke its legs completely.
The girl could no longer run freely. When the minstrel returned to the adow holding the white flower and a stringed instrunt, all he saw were the endless hills of the morning sun.
Later, the Rin Clan identity awakened, and the seed escaped the family. It finally had a legitimate identity to wield its abilities. Being a mber of the Rin Clan, being slightly stronger should be okay.
As a "Demon Race girl adopted by humans," she had endured too much anger, but abruptly changing her personality could result in fatal OOC (out of character), so she added a fresh setting for herself.
——Dissociative identity disorder.
Thus, in future encounters with Su Ming’an, she could continue acting as the helpless and pitiful disabled little flower-like girl. When she needed to wield force, she could switch to a dark persona, directly "going dark."
"Just claim..." The seed smiled slightly:
"I have a sister with a darkened personality who often possesses ."
"And then, go contact Su Ming’an~"
...
[Su Ming’an listened to her, then responded softly, "I won’t leave you; I like from beginning to end."]
[Xi Li may have suffered great misfortune, being sensitive and introverted, lacking a sense of security. But he wouldn’t abandon her, and her sister, who harbored hatred for Sique, was an unmissable source of information.]
[She looked at his back and clenched the white flower in her hand.]
["Mm."]
[She smiled slightly.]
