At the end of the day, by summoning players to become gods

"You are under arrest!"

When Ren Yi went to the laboratory to continue researching the key to zombification, he was stopped by the colonel and a group of people.

The colonel took out the arrest warrant, ignored his excuses at all, waved his hand, and let the subordinates around him catch him, and completely sealed off all the materials and reagents in the laboratory.

Sure enough, after turning around, I found a secret document about the creation of zombies.

Now that everyone has stolen the money, there is no room for refutation. Ren Yi had no choice but to plead guilty, but he harbored deep doubts in his heart: "I should not have shown my feet, how did you find out?"

The colonel stared at him deeply, and the corner of his lips curved into a sarcastic arc: "Then I'm going to ask you in 300 years."

Ren Yi: "...?"

The colonel did not continue to explain, and deposited the person in the interrogation room, conducted the interrogation and made a report himself.

When asked why Ren Yi researched such an evil plan to create zombies, Ren Yi's eyes were full of fanaticism and excitement: "Natural selection, only zombies are the ultimate evolutionary species chosen by God, and will lead the world to a more beautiful place." development in the direction!"

"Look at the current empire, what else does it have besides high-rise buildings and technology? Can you still appreciate the beauty of nature? No! There are too many human beings, which have caused too much destructive impact on this planet, so God Let the existence of zombies be born, in an attempt to cleanse the world, the cunning humans who only know destruction will be eliminated, and the zombies will return to the earth with green leaves and seeds, what a beautiful scene it will be!"

"Let the earth return to its original state, this is the future I am looking forward to!"

……

After hearing his intentions, the colonel fell silent for the first time.

Indeed, the planet originally had a large area of ​​green, fresh air and beautiful scenery. However, at some point, the crazy technological development has made nature less and less, and water sources have become more and more dry.

The empire became anxious only when it realized that the creatures were almost extinct and there were no beautiful plants around. It protected the remaining land as royal land and cared for it carefully.

As Ren Yi said, they really owed too much to this land.

...But this is never a reason to kill your fellow man and exterminate the human race.

If one wants to change, human beings actually have many choices, but Ren Yi chose the craziest and scariest one among them.

This is not saving, but just venting my inner desire.

No longer in the mood to listen to Ren Yi's explanation, the colonel charged him with the death penalty and walked away.

Without Ren Yi, the source of the virus, the empire quickly calmed down from the panic of zombie mutations, and there was no outbreak of another case for about a week.

This gradually calmed down the fear spreading among the people, and even the colonel's tightly locked brows relaxed.

But he still asked his subordinates to be vigilant to the empire, and to report any problems as soon as possible, and then entered the game alone.

Because there was no guidance from the fourth-level zombies, the zombies did not have the consciousness to continue to attack the city. The siege war that lasted for nearly a month finally came to an end.The church was also unified by a blessing in disguise.

During this week, Bai Ye was also quite busy expanding the territory, arranging tasks for everyone, ensuring the supply of three meals a day, etc., and almost turned his head.

Fortunately, the players who had nothing to do also volunteered to help the church, which relieved his pressure a lot.

But the death of the fourth-level zombies only means that the boss has been eliminated. There are still a large number of zombies on the map, which means that people have not really won. One of the purposes of the colonel returning to the game is to talk to Bai Ye about this matter. thing.

The real dilemma has been resolved, but they still can't let go of this future world, after all, this has already become their second home.

After responding to the warm greetings from several aborigines, the colonel went to the second floor of the church with a relaxed smile on his face.

"That's why we need the help of those undead from different worlds!"

Chi Yu and Bai Ye suddenly heard the voice of talking, and what they were talking about seemed to be related to the player. The colonel subconsciously stopped and listened.

Bai Ye sat on the sofa with her back to him, and standing in front of him was Chi Yu with a very serious expression.

But Bai Ye, who was concentrating on it, didn't notice the figure behind him, and only thought about it: "You mean... If you want to eliminate all zombies, purify the filth of the land, and truly restore peace, you need a lot of light to pour into the world. Then I just need to do it, why do I need their help?"

Chi Yu rolled his eyes: "Please, how big is this piece of land? You can't finish it with your strength!"

"But those undead are different!"

Bai Ye was puzzled: "Their light power is weaker than mine, even if there are more than 500 people, it is far from enough."

"No!" Chi Yu shook his fingers, his face full of pride, "I have studied the bodies of the undead, and their internal structures are astonishing, they are almost perfect containers made of light. Infused with light day and night in front of the gods, their bodies are already filled with light elements, and their power is beyond your imagination!"

"Have you studied their bodies?" Bai Ye keenly grasped these words, "When?"

"Uh..." Chi Yu suddenly fell into the embarrassment of being caught, "It's just a dissection task, it's not a big deal...Compared to this, do you understand what I said!"

"..."

While complaining that this person has started dissecting players without telling him, Bai Ye began to think deeply about the topic just now.

It is also said that the players' bodies are made by the system, which must involve the power of light, and it is the most suitable container for infusing light.

Coupled with the time spent in the church for more than half a year, it is not impossible to store huge power.

"So what do they need to do?" he continued.

When it comes to this point, Chi Yu is a little embarrassed: "...I saw the information they sent me about the self-detonation of the third-level zombies, and then I suddenly had an idea...because when the zombies self-detonate, all the energy explodes in an instant , Its power almost dyes the power of darkness within a radius of a hundred miles, so... what if the power of darkness is replaced by the power of light? Wouldn't it be completely purified!"

"And they are undead, even if they blew themselves up, they wouldn't die, so why not do it?"

"Self-explosion?" Bai Ye was startled. He had never thought of such a method, but after hearing Chi Yu's words, he felt a little moved in his heart, and couldn't help asking the system, "Is what he said correct?"

The system replied very quickly: [Yes. 】

But before Bai Ye's eyes lit up, the system added: [But the self-destruction will completely destroy the original existence, so the player cannot be revived again.And it also has a certain impact on my mental power, and there is a high probability that I can no longer use the ability in reality. 】

Bai Ye paused: "...so serious."

So joy turned into silence, and he couldn't open his mouth to agree to such a condition.

It wasn't until Chi Yu asked him suspiciously that he shook his head and said simply: "After the self-destruct, they will not be able to recover. In other words, they will never return to this world."

Chi Yu also fell silent for a moment.

All the plans he made were on the premise of not harming lives.

The undead helped them so much, and wiped out the fourth-level zombies for them. How could they repay their kindness to the death of the undead?

Don't say that Chi Yu doesn't allow it, no one in this refuge will allow it.

"...This plan is void, I'll think about it again!" Chi Yu turned around and was about to go to the research institute to continue his research.

However, a figure came out and blocked his way forward.

Chi Yu was startled, and looked in surprise at the colonel who did not know when he appeared in the living room, and was a little bit stuttering: "You... When did you come?"

"I heard all your conversations." The colonel set his eyes on Bai Ye with a calm tone, "If this is a way to save the world, we are willing to accept it."

"...Are you sure?" Bai Ye also seemed a little silent, "Not only will you never be able to return here, but even the abilities in reality will disappear, and the price will be very heavy."

The colonel shook his head: "All of this was originally given to us by the church. It was the church that allowed us to save the real world. It was the church that gave us the strength to fight... Now, it's time for us to repay the church."

"For this, no matter what price we pay, we are all happy!"

Bai Ye looked at him deeply. To be honest, in the current situation where there is no other way, it is the most suitable choice for the players to blew themselves up. Their mission is over and they can return to their original lives normally.

However, Bai Ye, who should have made up his mind, rarely hesitated at this moment, because when he thought that the church would lose the existence of these players forever, his heart felt empty, as if something was missing.

But seeing the Colonel's firm gaze, the confusion and entanglement in Bai Ye's heart dissipated in an instant. Since even the player himself chose to contribute, then why should he hesitate!

"it is good!"

The colonel saluted Bai Ye, then turned and left.

He informed all players of what he heard.

After the players heard it, they suddenly quieted down from the hilarity, and looked at each other with different expressions for a while.

Can't accept this decision.

"If we choose to blew ourselves up, we won't be able to come back..." Draw a circle and murmured and repeated this sentence, "That is, parting is forever?"

He looked around the scenery around the church, eyes full of confusion.

He really likes this place, the church built by their players themselves, there are beautiful green leaves, missed friends, and delicious meals... This is their home, and it is their second harbor of hearts.

As long as they walk into the game room, they can come back here, do tasks as always, laugh and talk with friends.

It never occurred to them that maybe one day they would never be able to enter.

And all this came too suddenly for them to accept.

"In order for the world to completely eradicate zombies, we need to contribute our strength." The colonel affirmed, "I will not force you to make a choice, but you think about the people living here, look at the scenery outside, and make a decision in your heart." Decide. If you decide to contribute to this world with me, come back here to assemble in an hour, and I will wait for you here."

The players left in confusion.

They didn't know where they were going, they just wandered around the church.

They remembered the shock of the grandeur of the church when they first came to the church...

They miss the bloody duels in the arena...

They recall the excitement of building their home with gusto...

They cheered up the thunderous applause and applause of the citizens for their battle...

Scene after scene, flashing through their minds, they are the most precious memories that they cannot part with.

At the end of the memory, before they knew it, they had already returned to the original place again.

Seeing the colonel standing there quietly, the players froze for a moment, then suddenly looked at each other and laughed.

Are they going to choose to blow themselves up for the church?

The answer to this question is already predetermined.

More than 500 people gathered in front of the colonel without saying a word, and no one was left behind. The colonel stared at their determined faces and couldn't help laughing: "It seems that you have made a decision."

"I'm so proud of you."

As the leader of the team, the colonel told Baiye about the thoughts of all the staff, and emphasized that they were ready to execute it at any time, but it is best to hope that it will be at night without disturbing anyone.

Bai Ye listened, but was speechless for a long time.

Finally, he patted the Colonel on the shoulder and smiled gently at him.

This smile is not as usual with a trace of alienation and indifference, it is as warm as if it could melt a glacier, the colonel couldn't help being startled, and suddenly blurted out: "I always feel like you are alone."

Bai Ye tilted her head: "Who?"

"...I don't know." The last time the colonel felt this way was Ren Yi who had turned into a zombie.

He tried his best to think in his mind, but in the end he could only vaguely locate a figure.

It seemed that in this church, he had seen the exact same smile as Bai Ye's.

Holy, gentle, compassion that seems to contain everything in the world——

Suddenly, his eyelids twitched, and he looked at Bai Ye suddenly.

Bai Ye stood there quietly, as if it was no different from before.

"……Can I ask you a question?"

The colonel stared closely at Bai Ye's eyes, and couldn't help but ask, "Who are you?"

"It's not just the identity of a priest... Is it the task you summoned us and issued to our system?"

Perhaps because it was the last, Bai Ye did not continue to lie about her identity, and readily admitted: "Yes."

The colonel's tone became urgent: "Can ordinary people have such abilities? It's simply a field that humans can't reach!"

He stared at Bai Ye more and more eagerly, trying to get some clues from his expression, but Bai Ye just looked at him calmly, without showing any emotion: "I'm just a little special."

Before the colonel could continue to ask, Bai Ye put a finger on her lips, and suddenly said:

"I have something to tell you."

"You have to remember that light is everywhere."

"He may be a clear stream on the ground, he may be the lazy afternoon sun, he may be the summer breeze, or he may... stand in front of you."

In the colonel's dazed expression, Bai Ye continued: "Even if you return to the original time and space, He will be with you. How to do it specifically, I remember that Emperor Raphael III made some oaths?"

The colonel's mind was in a mess. Hearing this, he nodded reflexively.

They will not forget what the gods have bestowed upon them, never will.

Under Bai Ye's satisfied eyes, the colonel was sent away in a daze.

After he realized it, he stopped in his tracks, and suddenly realized a little disobedience: How did Bai Ye know the private agreement between the god and the emperor?

Are those words just now really just implying compliance with the agreement?

His pupils constricted, his mind became clear for a moment, and he couldn't wait to walk back, but as soon as he took his steps, he stopped again.

After looking at the brightly lit church with complicated eyes for a long time, he finally chose to give up and keep this secret that only two people knew.

【He could have been an eternal warrior, waiting by your side forever. 】

After his figure disappeared, the system said lightly: 【He has this potential】

Bai Ye looked out of the window indifferently, and chuckled: "Let him continue to watch over his beloved empire, that is his true destination."

A leaf whirled and flew past his field of vision, and the white leaf stretched out his palm, as if supporting the soft breeze, sending the leaf towards the direction of the departing ancient tree.

Let's go back.

Fallen leaves will return to their roots one day.

It's time to say goodbye.

After struggling for a long time, Bai Ye still prepared the last farewell banquet, specially to send off the players.

All residents can participate. All kinds of delicacies and fruits are filled the square. Everyone dances and sings freely around the bonfire, laughing and making noise. Everyone's face is full of happiness.

The players also enjoyed sitting around the bonfire, joked with their companions from time to time, and thanked the church residents for their gifts from time to time.

Even their faces were filled with joy and happiness, it was a very successful farewell party.

Until the banquet was about to end, Bai Ye expressed the dedication and gratitude to the players on behalf of all the residents of the church, and the atmosphere became warm again.

Tens of thousands of residents sent flowers to the players, and held their hands to express their gratitude and reluctance.

The players took the garlands with a smile, talked to the residents one by one, and even asked the supernatural beings to take good care of the people in the church.

Players don't want to blow themselves up under everyone's gaze, so people have to line up to evacuate the square, but even if they leave, they can't help but turn their heads frequently, waving at the players vigorously, telling them to take good care of them even if they return to their own world themselves, they will be missed forever.

……

After waiting for no one in the square except Bai Ye, the players restrained their stiff smiles and slowly lowered their raised arms.

And at this time, the strong smile finally dissipated and was replaced by a drop of tears, which fell to the ground.

"I don't want...I don't want to leave here...I don't want to leave here!! I like this place so much!"

Draw a circle emotionally, choked up, and suddenly couldn't help but burst into tears.

I wanted to quietly see him like this, so I hurriedly persuaded him: "Don't be like this, you say that...even I can't help it."

While speaking, his voice already trembled, and in the end he sobbed softly, unable to help himself: "I like this place too...I like this place so much."

Starting with the two of them, it seemed that the invisible sadness was spreading, and the other players also had red eyes, sucked their noses, and shouted out the reluctance in their hearts:

"We, do we have to leave, this is our home, why do we have to leave our home!!"

"I haven't finished building my house, and I haven't competed with others in the arena. I don't want to leave!"

"I haven't looked at this beautiful world more, I haven't traveled all the land here, my dream has no sight, I don't want to go..."

……

Everyone shouted in a hurry, and the sobs and whimpers became louder and louder.

Almost covered the entire square.

"calm."

"clam down."

Seeing that the situation was going to be out of control, the colonel quickly wanted to stop it, but he didn't expect that when he spoke, his tone was obviously choked up.

The strongest man in the empire is now in tears.

"You... need to understand."

"Since this is our home, then we... have to wait for our home."

"At this moment, we happen to have the power, for the most precious harbor, for the most important people... what should we do?"

The players looked up with tears in their eyes, and met the eyes of the colonel with red eyes.

"Answer me, - what should we do?!"

A sonorous and powerful rhetorical question echoed in their chests, instantly causing blood and strength to spread throughout their bodies.

At this moment, all the reluctance and sadness turned into the motivation to protect.

The players wiped away their tears, their eyes resolute again.

Let them try their best to protect the world.

Let this piece of land carrying their hope truly become a happy paradise!

May the light last forever!

The players were transported to a land far away from the church with a unified pace. More than 500 people lined up and stood together, looking more and more solemn.

Standing at the front, Bai Ye remembered the familiar faces in her heart: "Are you... all ready?"

"Ready!"

A loud bang spread from the player, and the sound seemed to be able to pass through the sky.

Their eyes are so determined, their expressions are so serious.

They died willingly, dying with hope.

For everlasting light.

Just for a bright tomorrow.

Smiles gradually surfaced on their faces. They held hands and closed their eyes together.

"Brothers, see you in the past!"

boom--

bang bang-

Then three consecutive explosions sounded suddenly in the silent night.

A bright light appeared in the sky.

Like the dazzling and colorful fireworks, life is lost beautifully and briefly.

Waves of white light condensed pure to terrifying light elements, and quickly spread across the vast land, wave after wave, like ocean waves.The light washes over the ground and the sky. At this moment, the world seems to brighten up.

An extremely dreamlike scene appeared in Bai Ye's field of vision.

The grass grows tender shoots, the creatures return to the earth, the zombies dissipate, and the dirt on the ground disappears...

The sound of the growth of all things echoed on the earth, one after another, echoing the most beautiful notes in nature.

Successful.

Once again the light has fully descended on the land and finally triumphed!

Looking at such a beautiful scenery, Bai Ye couldn't help laughing.

But there was a hint of loneliness in the smile: "What a beautiful world... This is the world created by the players who put their lives on the line. I really want them to take a look."

No one answered him, and the front of him was empty, and there were no 500 people in sight.

……

[Congratulations on completing all tasks]

【Distributing mission rewards now】

After an unknown amount of time, the system's sudden reminder attracted Bai Ye's attention.

At the same time, a vast force surged towards Bai Ye's body. The white light suddenly appeared, but it did not dissipate for a long time. Until Bai Ye stepped out of the light, a huge amount of knowledge and power was already in his mind.

There seemed to be a huge vortex in front of his eyes. Through this colorful vortex, he saw all kinds of images of the past, present and future. All causes and effects were hidden in front of him, and everything was in the palm of his hand.

Everything in the world changes with his thoughts, and he becomes the master of all things.

……

Bai Ye slowly opened her eyes, an extremely pure halo flashed in her pure golden eyes.

That light is so majestic and intimidating, no matter who looks at him directly, they will feel fear and admiration from the bottom of their hearts.

[Following the agreement at the beginning, do you want to choose rebirth? 】

I don't know if it's an illusion, but the system's tone is unprecedentedly respectful.

"Do you mean the rebirth to return to the time when I was a human being who has not yet died, or the rebirth as a new god?" Bai Ye smiled.

He understood everything now.

The system became more respectful: [It's okay, you are already the master of all things.But no matter how you decide, cause and effect cannot be changed, and you can even travel freely in various time and space, but now your power has just awakened, and you have not yet reached that level. 】

Bai Ye became curious: "Then how can I achieve it?"

System: [It's very simple, you are a god born from faith, as long as you gain faith, you can increase your strength. 】

"I see." Bai Ye stretched out five fingers, and could see the slender golden thread flowing inside.

That is the belief he collected, as long as someone respects him, admires him, and enshrines him, he will be able to gain great power.

"...It seems that my story is not over yet."

Bai Ye laughed, and clenched her five fingers tightly: "This is a new starting point, and it's also a new beginning."

"Let Guangming's reputation resound across the earth, and let Guangming's honor spread all over the world... The next step is to take this as the goal."

As soon as the new god was transformed, it suddenly became exactly the same appearance as the statue of the god in the church.

With a slight lift of the smooth chin, a gentle and handsome smile appeared on the lower half of the face that could only be exposed.

With a thought, the figure has disappeared.

"Look at the sky! What is that!!"

The busy people in the church saw the golden light suddenly blooming in the sky at night, and couldn't help but stop and watch.

Suddenly, they saw a familiar huge figure appearing in the cloud.

He was wearing a pure white hood, covered with only a soft gauze, and stepped in the air like walking on flat ground.

This scene of astonishment was reflected in everyone's eyes, and they all opened their mouths in shock.

"Yes...it's a god! It's a god who has manifested his spirit!!"

People recognized the figure kneeling down day and night, kneeling on the ground and begging for prayer.

They called for the coming of the gods, and there was a fanatical desire in their eyes.

People who didn't see this scene ran out when they heard the sound, and pointed to the sky in panic.

At this moment, no matter whether you have faith in your heart or not, you are showing respect for God from the bottom of your heart.

A steady stream of thin golden lines gathered above the sky, forming a vast force.

The god then showed a happy smile.

"Send all the statues of the gods to publicize the great miracle of the God of Light to save the world, and everyone must respect them from the bottom of their hearts!"

In reality, Jiang Feng is strictly entrusting his subordinates. This is an agreement between the gods and the emperor, and now he is fulfilling it himself.

Just two weeks ago, the emperor had publicly announced his mistake, and even gave a grand speech, personally explaining the existence of the gods and their great power, almost giving the gods all the credit for eliminating the zombies.

With the emperor's propaganda and the colonel's image spokesperson's guarantee, the empire finally set off a frenzy of faith.

However, most of this belief is a whim, and it may not be expressed in my heart.

The colonel knew very well that they still had a long way to go to convince everyone of the existence of gods.

And since returning to reality, the abilities in their bodies have disappeared, and there is no threat of zombies. The colonel has enough time to deal with this matter.

Of course, the issue of environmental pollution and governance cannot be left behind, but it is just a long battle.

After entrusting the matter, it is considered to be a temporary conclusion. The colonel exhaled slowly, and suddenly picked up a precious flower that he specially picked in the Imperial Garden this morning, got up and walked to the special room on the second floor.

Inside the room was only a familiar statue of the god.

Wearing a hood and wearing a white gauze.

The colonel presented the flowers in front of the statue in a respectful mood, opened his robe and knelt on the ground, and began today's prayer.

Countless days and nights of praying, he is quite familiar with the road.

"... may the light last forever."

With the end of the last prayer, the colonel slowly raised his eyes, trying to get up from the ground.

However, at this moment, his vision suddenly became dizzy, and a faint voice echoed in his ears like tinnitus.

--I heard.

That voice seemed to be saying so.

Dreamlike, ethereal and illusory.

The colonel was startled, subconsciously stood up and looked around.

But the scene that greeted my eyes was still an ordinary room, nothing special about it.

Hallucination?Hallucinations?

The colonel frowned uncertainly, and some suspected that it was an auditory hallucination caused by being too tired.

But when he finally let go of his doubts and lowered his head to sweep over his palm, he couldn't help but froze in place.

——A beautiful little flame was dancing in the palm of his hand.

Bright red, bright, desperately burning.

Like the fire of life that never goes out.

……

In an instant, crystal tears appeared in the colonel's eyes.

He held the faint but bright flame in his hand tightly, tightly, as if embracing hope.

He heard it too.

It was the call of the gods across time and space.

At this moment, the colonel remembered what Bai Ye had said to him.

"When you need him, he will be there for you."

"Even if you return to reality, He will always be with you."

"Now, have you found Him?"
