Let me live [Quick Transmigration]

----

At the last second before his vision went dark, what Lu You saw was the red rose in the vase on the dining table.

The water has not been changed or added, and most of the water in the glass vase has evaporated, and it is no longer clear.The rose that should have a short shelf life is still in full bloom. The velvety petals are as plump and soft as a lover's lips, and the color of the petals is as bright red as the blood flowing into his neck.

It was brought back by Qi Zhengyun four days ago as his birthday present.Both of them don't like too lively activities, Qi Zhengyun usually gives him more expensive gifts, and they are never limited to festivals or anniversaries, so the content of that night is just a simple rose, a sumptuous dinner made by himself, And the tender kissing and making love at the candlelit dining table.

There was absolutely no sign of any imminent collapse.

...In the middle of the night of that day, the end came.In just one night, the world fell into hell.Zombies who used to be neighbors crowded outside the door, and from the window one could see mutated flocks of birds and bats wandering and hunting day and night.He and Qi Zhengyun tried every means to keep their home, but finally came to an end because of the shortage of water and food.

Since they are all dead, it is better to fight one last time and die outside.Lu You decided to open the door, but Qi Zhengyun didn't express any objection or even worry about it.

In fact, at this time, Lu You should have noticed his abnormality... That guy, his desire to protect him is usually a bit extreme, and in the past few days when the zombies sieged him, he was even more tense to the limit. As if blaming himself for not being able to confront the world, and completely not allowing Lu You to take a step closer to the doors and windows that may be attacked.Even so, when he acquiesced to the proposal of going out to die, Lu You only thought that it was the despair of having no other choice that made him finally compromise.

He didn't expect that the fact that Qi Zhengyun was so calm was actually because he had found "other options".

He chose to let Lu You die without pain.

When the back of the head was hit hard, Lu You only felt the shock, and the element of surprise was far greater than the pain.In front of him was the delicate and desolate rose, and he couldn't see the expression on Qi Zhengyun's face behind him.He hadn't had time to feel any more pain, or experience that fabled life-long second before death, when it was over.

Qi Zhengyun...

The redness of the rose imprinted on the retina became a fire that glowed in the darkness of the afterlife.

Lu You felt that he was floating upwards, and thin and cold things were sliding quickly against his body, like many chains.He wanted to grab them, but his fingers were entangled. In a blink of an eye, his whole body was wrapped in chains and could not move, becoming an airtight cocoon.Those chains were getting hotter and tighter, branding them on his skin, cutting into the depths of his flesh and blood, and reaching his soul.

The pain that was thousands of times stronger than when he died finally made Lu You couldn't help crying out.

"ah--……?"

As soon as he made a sound, the oppression, heat and pain all disappeared suddenly, as abruptly as if it was his hallucination just now.Lu You already vaguely felt that something was wrong: Why does a dead person still have so many feelings?So he continued to scream unremittingly for half a minute after the pain disappeared, trying to take this opportunity to figure out his current state, and finally he couldn't keep screaming, so he reluctantly opened his eyes.

At first glance... he didn't see anything.

There was pure darkness in front of him, without a trace of light, as if the air was covered with thick ink.But when he turned his face slightly, he could see the bright light on the ground, and suddenly fell into darkness after a certain distance.Lu You didn't have the time to pretend to be frightened anymore, he got up silently, looked around, and found that he was standing in a bright perfect circle, as if the spotlight on the stage cast a beam of light from directly above.

Lu You stared at the ground under his feet for a while, then raised his hands and overlapped each other.Then he confirmed: he really has no shadow now.

"So there really is a world after death?" Lu You said to himself, "But this scene is too monotonous..."

"Cough um."

There was a rather deliberate cough from behind him.

Lu You paused, then turned to face the place where the sound came from. "Uh, who's there?" He looked into the darkness outside the circle of light, "It's too dark in your place, I can't see anything... Is it Impermanence? Satan? Hades? Anubis?"

No one appeared, only a voice that sounded weak, as if it would die in the next second, came from the darkness.

"Don't guess, it's neither." The voice said slowly, "I am 'System'."

"System..." Lu You nodded.He paused for a while, told himself "it's just a dream", and then asked: "Then are you going to say, let me go time travel, do tasks, collect points for rewards... that's it?"

"It seems that you understand very well." The voice said, "That's right."

"Can I ask a question?" Lu You asked sincerely.

"You are really dead. You have only one soul. Personal choice will not split into parallel worlds. The host and the system are bound one-to-one. There is no upper limit to the number of time travels. The soul will not be erased. The penalty for failure is an infinite retry." The system said, "Also What do you want to ask?"

Lu You spent some time digesting the pile of unquestioned answers thrown to him by the system just now, and felt a little horrified by the item "the penalty for failure is infinite repetition". "What if I don't want to... time travel?" He asked cautiously.

"Then you are really dead." Unexpectedly, the system's answer was not "No".Immediately afterwards, it started persuading in a tone full of burnout and completely routine: "In the random screening of an infinite base, being selected as the host of this system is such a rare luck. Do you choose to give up without trying?"

It sounds like it wants Lu You to nod and say "yes", and then let him die immediately.

"No, I just want to understand the situation first." Lu You thought to himself why this system is not motivated at all, and it must not be rated as an excellent employee by the Lord God. Continuous experience and upgrading, or correcting the world line? Cross-border missionary work? Collecting emotional energy? By the way, do you know that there is another popular routine now-the 'system' that the supporting role is lucky to get is actually made by the protagonist. Experimental? Then the supporting characters struggle with real emotion in the fake world, and the protagonist just watches the play happily and leisurely outside..."

He spoke a lot in one breath, as if some inexpressible emotion compelled him to keep making noises, or his heart would burst open.He didn't pause until here, and then continued muttering, "However, living people who are suddenly favored by the system are more likely to have this kind of risk. I'm already dead..."

The word "death" came out, as if the last piece of driftwood was pulled away, his heart that had been light like a dream before suddenly sank, and he could no longer say it.After a while, he asked in a low voice, "Why?"

Why should it end in an inescapable farewell?Why not just let him die and sleep unconscious forever?Why was he still awake, still able to remember and think, to feel the pain?

The system didn't answer these questions. It seemed that it simply understood Lu You's question as "Why did you choose someone to travel through?", so it replied slowly, "Because the God of Creation is bored."

Lu You: "... Huh?"

"All mission dungeons are part of the Creator God's play items...." The system simply used the word "duplicate" directly, "Ordinary people living a normal life are called 'people', who are chosen like you Those who come out and get the system are the 'chosen people'. Sometimes God of Creation responds to the call of the people when they die, and sends the chosen people to replace their roles, to fulfill their wishes or change their destiny. This is the origin of the 'task'. But this It's not done out of pity, or in exchange for something in return, it's just for fun."

"Chuang|Shishen likes to watch cosplay?" Lu You asked in a daze.

The system actually let out a "hmm", without showing any intention of maintaining the dignity of his immediate superior.That's right, they are all creator gods, and it's too boring to worry about face or other people's eyes.

"Let me see..." The system seems to be inquiring about something, "Oh, the initial score of the host is 69 points? This is a very good score, which is about the same as the income of a mission. It seems that either your character evaluation is good, Either you died in a funny way."

To be killed by her boyfriend in the last days, so that he can "relieve" without pain, it's interesting... Lu You felt a little tired, so he didn't think much about it, and subconsciously asked the question: "Then, what is the exchange for resurrection?" How many points?"

"You still want to be resurrected in the original world?" There was a rare hint of surprise in the system's voice.

Lu You hesitated.Not to mention that if you come back from the dead in a world where the zombie virus broke out, you will definitely be regarded as infected with the virus, and after you go back, you will still be in a desperate situation in the doomsday, and you will not be able to survive if you survive.

In that world, he didn't have any family or friends to miss or to save...except Qi Zhengyun.

Thinking of Qi Zhengyun, Lu You felt a little complicated.He had already been prepared to face death, but the way of death was beyond his expectation; even this way, in retrospect, was quite in line with Qi Zhengyun's usual style...

He died without suffering, and is now being brought back to life by the system.This made him feel a little unreal all the time, he couldn't bring up anger or hatred, he didn't know whether to forget or miss, he just felt endlessly at a loss.

I don't know what happened to that guy after he died...

"Can you bring other people from the original world?" Lu You asked in a low voice, "That is, like me, to another world?"

"Traveling and survival time other than missions need to consume points. The cost of time travel will vary according to the target world. Survival time is 20 points for one year. You can apply if you can afford it." The system said, "However, there are There is one thing to remind you: only after the body of the current world dies can the time travel be started, both the original world and the mission world."

Still can't escape death...

Does this count as some kind of even?

Although the system has always been tired of saying "I really don't want to work", its attitude in answering is quite friendly and patient.Lu You felt that this should be regarded as part of the "novice tutorial", thinking that the system said "the number of traversal times is unlimited", but did not say whether it is possible to quit, "Then if I don't want to continue after doing a few missions, is it allowed to stop? "

"As long as he is not on a mission and the points are not negative, the host can choose to die completely at any time and return his soul to nothingness."

Lu You: "...What about the mission?"

"Once the task is started, it cannot be exited until it is completed. If the host fails the task due to death or timeout, etc., the host will be forced to immediately read the file and start again, and 100 points will be deducted-there is no upper limit for the number of times, and no lower limit for points." The end of the system I picked it up, and suddenly became a little gloomy when I spoke again, "As for the result of the points becoming negative... as long as the host knows now, it will be a very, very bad thing."

"So," it continued to ask, "this host, do you want to abandon your identity as a voter and die now?"

Lu You was silent for a while, then suddenly smiled.

"Going to die? Why, I haven't lived enough." He whispered, stretched his waist, looked up, although he couldn't see anything, "role-playing? Experience a different Life sounds like a lot of fun... Please give me more advice from now on, Mr. System."

The system seemed to sigh. "Please give me your advice, Your Excellency the host." It said, "It may be a little painful to enter the official identity entry for the host now, please be patient with the host."

Before Lu You had time to agree, his eyes suddenly went black.When the light appeared again, he was lying on the ground again, and felt the chains around him again.It didn't hurt, it just made him unable to move for a while.

He just lay there quietly, staring blankly at the darkness above the system space.This place is too deserted and simple... The points sound very important and cannot be used casually, but if you accumulate more in the future, you should be able to change some decorations here, right?

Before Lu You's eyes, the ceiling of the bedroom painted like a starry sky, the wood-colored furniture and beige sheets appeared; the marble countertop in the kitchen was newly replaced a few months ago, and the red oven that Qi Zhengyun used to make pizza and bread. The clean floor, the post-it note with a smiling face that Qi Zhengyun pasted on the refrigerator door, the roses that Qi Zhengyun inserted into a glass vase... His throat was suddenly blocked, and he choked up as if there was a lump that he couldn't swallow. , raised his hand to cover his eyes, and soon felt a little warm moisture on the back of his hand.

In fact, roses can also be eaten, and the water in the vase can also be drunk, and other ways of life can always be found, and it is not the time of complete despair, right?Lu You had even thought out his lines, and he wanted to hold the flower in his hand and say, "Come on, eat our love crystal!" But before he could say it, Qi Zhengyun killed him.

The end of the world has come, and zombies are everywhere. He didn't die from bites or viruses, and he didn't suffer any suffering. He simply died at the hands of his boyfriend.

In the past, because Qi Zhengyun managed too much and too carefully, and clinged to him too tightly, Lu You often found him annoying and annoying.My friend had reminded him many times before, telling him to be careful of Qi Zhengyun, that control freak, maybe he just took him as his property, deprived him of his alone time, restricted his social interaction, and wanted Lu You to become a private pet in a cage... …

What happened to this friend after that?

It seems that because of the disharmony of the three views, I gradually lost contact with each other.Qi Zhengyun slowly occupied everything around Lu You, and it was exactly as his friend said.

After the end of the world, Qi Zhengyun could no longer maintain his control, so Qi Zhengyun simply killed him.

This is the best.Lu You thought, his thinking seems to have become very slow and difficult.He didn't want to imagine the ending of Qi Zhengyun who stayed alone in the doomsday after killing him.He suddenly hoped that it would be best if Qi Zhengyun was really just a simple control freak, paranoid, and insane.It is best that the love he has felt, defended, and stubbornly insisted on is all just his wishful thinking.

And not because of... because of love...

There was an emotionless voice from the system.

"The host has confirmed the task. The countdown to release, five, four, three, two, one..."
