Help, I've become a paper man

After a moment of silence, Noah's Ark replied:

"According to current calculations, becoming a god is the best way to save the world, but..."

"What you saw is real. If salvation fails, those nightmares will become reality."

At this point, Noah's Ark's words became more and more frank, but Song Yi was still skeptical when he heard them.

The way this person speaks is like a boss making empty promises. Even if there is some possibility, judging from his usual credibility, there is still a lot of water in it.

Song Yi asked again: "What do you mean? I thought I was dead, and I died many times. All the ones I saw were memoirs of the dead."

"Now, from what you said, I don't seem to be dead yet, and there is still a possibility of rescue. In this case, those memories..."

"Could it be that someone else failed in the challenge and left behind an image that I now inherit?"

Song Yi said it easily. The emotions that had just settled down due to recent setbacks were refreshed by his memory and began to become active again.

Such nonsensical words just come out of his mouth without considering the system at all.

Noah's Ark replied: "No, they exist, but it has not been confirmed. It is just a possibility."

"You can think of them as IOUs. If we win, those tragedies won't happen. They will all be written off."

"Correspondingly, if we lose, when the world is destroyed, those debts will be settled together, taking us with them."

Song Yi nodded and commented: "This is reasonable. We made money. After all, we don't owe any debts. Once the world is destroyed, we will die too."

From his words, we can also tell that he has a good ability to accept things, but...

It doesn’t have to be that good.

Noah's Ark advised: "You are right. From the beginning to the end, we have only one way, and that is to become God."

Song Yi exhaled, stared at the barrier in front of him, laughed out loud, and said: "Noah's Ark, you are avoiding the important things, what else do you want to pretend?"

"If what you said before was true, then I am already dead, Yan Changyue is also dead, everyone is dead, and more than once."

"If that's the case, where does the stardust come from? Where are the humans?"

"Even if there is something that can restart the world infinitely, this will not happen."

"The same species, when reopened, is divided into two races, and then cast back to the starting point."

He spoke freely and in one breath, pouring out all the frustration and doubts in his heart.

The air fell silent for a moment. Song Yi slowly raised his hand and reached out to Yan Changyue across the solid barrier.

"Besides, your description of this land has been constantly changing as I explore it."

"Tell me first that this is a no-man's land, that it requires gods, and that it allows gods to arouse my attention."

"Then, as I learned about Purgatory, I came into contact with more copies and gained a better understanding of the world."

"You told me that the world would be destroyed and that we were doing this to save the world. Now you're saying it's to keep everyone alive."

When Song Yi said this, his hand stopped and he touched an obstacle before approaching Yan Changyue.

There was still some distance between the barrier and his target. Even with the barrier in between, it was difficult for him to touch the other party at this moment.

Song Yi shook his head and said in a calmer tone: "You really don't look like one person, but more like a gang."

"First determine the target, and before you start to deceive, guide the other party to complete something, and then you will have the opportunity to communicate with them in real time."

"Then you follow up in a timely manner, constantly change your words, and use tasks and rewards to guide the target."

While speaking, Song Yi tried twice more, and only withdrew his hand regretfully after making sure that he really couldn't touch it.

He looked away from Yan Changyue and said slowly, "Are you surprised by what I said before and what I am doing now?"

"It sounds a bit contradictory, between trusting you and rejecting you, but this is normal."

"Humans are like this. You didn't tell me the truth, so I can't trust you."

"But what you want to do and what I want are, to some extent, consistent."

"So, I no longer completely trust you, but it doesn't affect our journey together, and we can do something for this world together."

Song Yi spoke slowly, his voice becoming softer and softer. The existence of Yan Changyue was not complete and left no trace in his heart.

When we parted, the image of the other person roaring and becoming more and more crazy is more than just a vivid memory.

It also allowed him to revisit his time with Yan Changyue as his memory returned.

Yan Changyue once told Song Yi what might happen after her death, but Song Yi didn't understand and even thought her idea was peculiar.

Now he was thinking, and he decided secretly that no matter what it took, he would do his best to keep Yan Changyue alive.

That was his Boss Yan, the graceful Boss Yan!

In anger, Song Yi fished out a knife from the space and started working as soon as the barrier was broken.

Let's vent some emotions.

But Noah's Ark continued, "I regret to tell you that what I said is completely true from our perspective."

"You can change your way of thinking and think about the situation at hand, for example, the most superficial part..."

"Why did Stardust try his best to become stronger, but the one who became a god was the human he contracted with?"

Song Yi nodded, signaling the other party to continue. Noah's Ark also cooperated, and after a brief pause, he said:

"That's another question. You just asked why there are two completely opposite species, stardust and humans, in this world."

"Because the location where the anchor point is planted is a time point for restarting, and the first stardust died before that."

"By analogy, every time there is a restart, there will be an extra batch of stardust. As for the living people, they will remain human during the next restart."

Song Yi interrupted and asked, "Wait a minute, does Yan Changyue know what you are talking about?"

Noah's Ark paused for a second and replied, "Yes, he is closest to God and has seen the nature of the world."

Therefore, Yan Changyue advocated that we should do our best to protect humanity, even if it means sacrificing stardust when necessary...

Noah's Ark didn't say the rest, but Song Yi knew it. As he was thinking about it, he thought of another thing.

"Is the increase in stardust a bad thing? Because of the lack of contracted people?"

Song Yi asked the question reluctantly, but his doubts remained the same, or rather, he felt it was even more outrageous.

This kind of situation at the beginning was similar to a contract between master and servant, and the situation where they had to be bound together. Combined with what he just said, it made Song Yi feel like a punishment after hearing it.

Punishment for "losers".
