——The memory is over, and the time has returned to the present.Luo Yan put his hand into his pocket, in which lay quietly the activation key that looked like a work of art but was actually the most powerful weapon in the world, and he held it involuntarily.He looked at the peacefully sleeping girl again, and slowly let go of her hand.

—I won't do what you want, Lotta.

——No matter what decision she makes in the end, until then, I will be by this child's side.

— This is the oath I made to her.

In the silent night shrouded in darkness, the boy made up his mind.

Chapter 120 Investigation

It's that dream again.

After all, how many times have you dreamed of such a scene?

In the world of "nothing" that can't even be called existence, "I" floats there quietly.

Ahh, I failed again.

……

I couldn't understand why such thoughts popped up in my mind, but I accepted it all very naturally.

How many times has this happened?

Already, I can't remember at all.

Perhaps from the very beginning, there was no happy end in this story.

Everything I did was in vain.

……

Already, enough is enough.

Please, anyone is fine.

Kill me and end this.

This is, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.

—————————————————————

After waking up from the hangover, I shook my painful head as if it was about to split, and forced myself to sit up from the bed. The bones in my limbs seemed to be softened, and I couldn’t exert my strength at all. I was still wearing yesterday’s clothes. Trying to recall what happened last night, but no matter what, I can only stay at the time of eating hot pot and drinking red wine, and the memory after that is completely gone.

From the looks of it, I seem to have drunk too much. I didn't expect that I would lose my composure in this place. Could it be that because I saw the scenery similar to my hometown, my heart was a little turbulent?I shook my head and didn't continue to think about it.

Hmm, I didn't expect a hangover to be such a painful experience...Damn it, my head hurts...I really want to just lie down like this, but that's just a simple escape instead of relieving the pain.I took a deep breath, struggled to put on my shoes, stood up, and staggered out of the room.

My room is on the first floor of this villa. As soon as I went out, I smelled a fresh fragrance, which cheered me up a little.

"Are you awake? I just made hangover soup, do you want to taste some?" Luo Yan, wearing an apron, came out of the kitchen, holding a bowl of soup in his hand and smiling.

I didn't think much about it, took the bowl and drank it "gulu gulu".After eating a bowl of soup, I don't know whether it is psychological or really played a role. I feel that my headache has relieved a lot.

"... Delicious. Sweet." I briefly expressed my opinion.

"After all, it's made of various fruits, so it's normal to feel sweet. How is it? Do you feel better?" Luo Yan still asked with a smile.

"Hmm." I nodded honestly, "Why did you do this?"

"Because of my old lady, she often likes to drink alone when she is working late at night. As a result, her head hurts to death every morning, and she refuses to take anti-alcoholic medicine. I often cook this hangover soup for her. "

"Sister..." I said thoughtfully.

"Speaking of which, I've never heard Ling mention your family."

"...It's just that there's nothing to say, they're not here anyway."

"Ah, sorry." Luo Yan seemed to have misunderstood something, and apologized.I didn't intend to explain anything about it. After all, I'm actually a foreigner from another world. If I say something like this, it will only be treated as a neuropathy.

"By the way, you guy, why have you been smiling since just now? It makes people get goosebumps. If you smile so disgustingly again, be careful that I will beat you." I said disgustedly.

"Strike! Well, but this is the usual Ling." Luo Yan smiled wryly.

What, this guy has been saying strange things since just now.

Forget it, I finally regained my normal mobility, so I can't waste my time staying here any longer.

"In short, I plan to investigate the city first." I said briefly.

"Um, is your body okay?"

"It's just a little alcohol, it's not a big deal at all."

"So, do you want me to go with you?"

"Huh? It must be more efficient to do the investigation separately. And that guy Mo An hasn't woken up yet, so you can wait here until he wakes up and then investigate separately. Don't be lazy."

"Well, that's fine." Luo Yan replied after hesitating for a moment.

It really wasn't my illusion, this guy has been acting weird since just now.Could it be that something happened yesterday after I got drunk?But no matter how hard I try to recall, I can't remember what happened at all.

In the end, I could only shake my hand suspiciously, casually took some biscuits for breakfast from the room, and walked out the door.

I took a deep breath of the morning air, and the discomfort and pain just now disappeared like a hallucination.The green willow branches beside the road sway with the wind, not man-made scenery, but real trees.

Living in a cyberpunk technological city for so long, I have almost forgotten the scenery of the past city.Everything in front of me now is slowly reawakening my memory, reminding me of the world I really lived in in the past.

I was walking on the sidewalk by the riverside, and the floor tiles under my feet could be seen to have been refurbished several times. Even so, they still retained the old style.At this moment, the sun is gradually rising in the morning, the mountains surround the river and the river is imaginary, and in the mist, everything is so elusive and so intriguing.The city is silent in the early morning, except for occasional long and sharp whistles from the other side of the river, piercing the suffocating blue sky.Under the blowing of the morning breeze, the river water sparkles, and the cool breeze gently stirs up the ends of my hair, making every nerve feel indescribably comforted.There are no rows of high-rise buildings or dazzling neon lights. Warmth and nature are still the theme of this era.

Although the current world where you don't even need to move your fingers and is completely handed over to AI and Eden Network is also great, but sure enough, I still think this real world will be better.

I took a deep breath, and the cold wind entered my lungs, making me shiver all over.No, now is not the time to appreciate the scenery, we must find out what happened on this planet as soon as possible, why the people from the "Yuetan" organization appear here, and what is the "God-making Project" they are talking about? What.

If you use the usual method to find it, it will probably take quite a long time.However, I have a "cheating weapon" on me.Although I don't know how many people know about the red pupil, or the "Eye of the Void", but the less the better.So I rejected Luo Yan's invitation to act together, and let him stay in the villa, which also played a role in monitoring Mo An.

I'm sorry, Zero, you've been warning me not to rely too much on this power, but I'm really not strong enough to pass the level easily without cheating weapons.

I closed my eyes and tried to focus entirely on my right eye.

Chapter 120 Eight Unexpected Situations

The world has changed.

After peeling off the fake shell, the real information remains.

"Oh!" I frowned and groaned in pain.

Sure enough, the burden on the brain of Xu Zhiyan is not so small, just wanting to go deeper, it feels like the head is about to be torn apart.But on this strange planet, the Eden Network is completely unable to connect with the outside world, nor can it use zero power, and it is impossible to summon the Dragon Knight to this city, and in the end, I can only rely on myself up.

I took a deep breath and raised my 120% attention to prevent myself from accidentally slipping off that absolutely insurmountable cliff.

It's not enough, it's still a bit close, if you work a little harder...! ! !

For a moment, a creepy feeling like being stared at by a snake suddenly rose in my mind, and I couldn't stop sweating, and subconsciously closed the eyes of the void.

I turned my head abruptly, taking for granted the empty street.

However, it is definitely not my illusion. I have never felt the feeling just now, even when I met the judge's eyes, just like a drowning traveler, watching himself sinking into the deep sea bit by bit in despair.

However, the parts needed are already in hand.After removing most of the useless information, I found a piece of information that was almost identical to the one I found in the last survivor base.This also means that although it is not known whether it is related to the "gods" in their mouths, there is indeed some kind of power in these bases that suppresses the spread of the "fog of loss", making these areas the last places for human beings. living place.

As for the source of this power, I haven't figured out the source yet.In fact, when I was peeping just now, I felt that gaze that seemed to be warning me, as if warning me not to go any further.

This planet can survive the catastrophe, and has an undisclosed relationship with criminal organizations. I can think about it with my toes and know that there is definitely a big secret hidden behind it.As the saying goes, curiosity killed the cat, and I naturally understand this truth, but the current situation seems to no longer allow me to continue pretending to be an ostrich.For some reason, I always have a hunch that even if I don't do anything, trouble will come to me sooner or later.It is better to take the initiative to attack than to be beaten passively.

So, I acted out of my usual way and decided to continue the investigation.However, if I continue to use the Void Eye, I might annoy the existence behind everything. Now I don’t have such strength, so I have no choice but to investigate by myself without relying on the Void Eye.

Speaking of which, the building with the stop sign in front of it shouldn't be the entrance of the subway, right?I walked in curiously, and found that the escalator was still in operation, and the inside was obviously much cleaner than the outside building, probably because someone was doing regular maintenance.

Going all the way along the passage, I came to the ticket gate of the subway.There is no one around, only the machine next to it is beeping, presumably it is completely unmanned control.Just when I remembered that I didn't seem to be carrying the currency of this world, the ticket gate opened automatically.

So, is it a facility open to residents for free?After a quick look at the route map displayed on the screen, I selected the destination station, picked up the pop-up ticket and entered the waiting room of the subway.

The waiting room was empty, and I just sat on a chair. The TV screen hanging above my head was showing the time until the subway arrived, which was exactly the same as the city I was originally in.

Could it be that I have actually returned to the original world?I couldn't help thinking so.Because this city is a bit too similar to my hometown, except for the sparse population and the traces of the years that can be seen everywhere, the rest of the place is exactly the same.If it weren't for the existence of the god "Ed" that I had never heard of in my world, and the testimony I heard from Katerina, I would have suspected that I had not actually crossed the world, but came to the future.

The future... Since this world is so similar to the earth, does it also mean that the earth may usher in a similar future?Thinking of this, I couldn't help but shudder.

...Anyway, it shouldn't be this similar, right?Horrible monsters, so-called gods are actually aliens who have descended on the planet for a long time, and the end of the world. How can such a light novel-like setting happen in reality? Well, it is absolutely impossible.

However, no matter how much I comforted myself, this terrible idea lingered in my mind like a nightmare and couldn't get rid of it.Maybe at the same time I was traveling, the earth was facing the same doomsday scene as it did during the first cataclysm.

...Damn it, what the hell am I thinking about? Even if something really happened to the earth, I can't do anything about it, it will only add to the distress for nothing.

...Now I can't do anything.

Before I knew it, the subway had arrived at the station.I shook my head, got up and walked in through the slowly opened subway door, and sat at a place by the window by the way.

The subway doors closed slowly, and after a slight vibration, the subway started moving again.I took it easy and focused my attention on the standing ticket in my hand.The site I chose was "Office Building", which is where we went through various formalities with Mo An yesterday.After thinking about it for a while, I found that it would be much more convenient to start the investigation from there.After all, it is the center that governs the city. If you investigate carefully, you should find many useful places.

"Remember?" said the voice.

I raised my head abruptly, and under the bright subway lights, a figure in a black windbreaker appeared at some point on the opposite seat.It raised its head slowly and met my eyes.

...I remember it.No, to be precise, it remembers the mask on its face that is just the opposite of mine.

It was the mysterious man in windbreaker who had an unpredictable relationship with the "Yue Tan Organization" I met in the office building before.It was clear that when I got on the train, the subway should be empty, but it happened to appear opposite me when I was unconscious.

Before I had time to think about why it appeared here, my body consciously touched the switch of the Dragon Knight bracelet.At this time, the subway was already running on the outdoor overhead bridge, and summoning the dragon knight here should not cause much trouble.

(Happy Mid-autumn Festival)

Chapter 120 Nine Old Encounters

"Remember?" The man in the windbreaker looked familiar with my actions, and asked in a mechanical voice that seemed to have been processed and could not tell the gender.

"...remember what?" I asked tentatively.

"Don't remember yet?"

"So what the hell is that!" I suddenly felt an unknown fire in my heart, forgetting that this guy in front of me might be extremely dangerous, "Didn't your mother teach you to state your name carefully before asking a question?" Who are you? Why did you appear in front of me? Do I know you very well? Don’t act like you know everything, if that’s the case, go and investigate for yourself!”

"Really, it looks like I haven't remembered it yet." The man in the windbreaker sighed, suddenly it was no longer an emotionless machine, and his voice became immature and clear like that of an immature girl, "Sorry, I just I can contact you in this way. I can't tell you too much, otherwise, 'he' will find out."

"He? Who is it?" I was stunned by the sudden change of the man in the windbreaker, and asked subconsciously.

"That is the origin of the world, the origin of all sins, and the first god in this world. Go to the deepest part of this world, and then you will know your true self. I will wait for you there, Ling." The man in the windbreaker's voice suddenly froze, his whole body twitched like a broken machine, and he fell straight on the seat.

I ran over in a panic, only to find that the mask of the man in the windbreaker had fallen off.Hidden under that mask is a face that is the same as mine but without any expression, just like a puppet.And her body wrapped under the windbreaker turned out to be entirely made of machinery.

It twisted its neck at a 180-degree angle that is impossible for humans, and looked at me in an extremely strange shape. It kept opening and closing its lips, and a dangerous red light flashed in its eyes: "The... target... has been found... Application...captured...determined by...beginning..."

There was something bad in my heart, and I quickly threw this robot that looked like me out.However, it seemed that it was too late, and countless mechanical sounds came from all directions in each box.

"Target found." "Target found." "Target found." "Target found." "Target found." "Allow capture." "Allow capture." "Allow capture." "Allow capture." "Allow capture." "Go." "Go." "Go." "Go." "Go."

"Hey? Hey? Hey?" With a bewildered face, I watched countless men in trench coats appear out of nowhere and slowly move towards me in a double-team.

What the hell is going on?There are still question marks in my mind, but I also understand that if I continue to stay here, something bad will definitely happen.There is no other way, although it may become the target of public criticism, but I have no choice but to summon the dragon knight.

However, just when I made up my mind to activate the neutral position of the bracelet, a somewhat familiar voice suddenly came from the window behind me: "Lower your head!"

I did so subconsciously, before realizing I was on a fast-moving subway.Violent energy beams were emitted from the window behind me, easily melting the glass, and knocking away several people in windbreakers who were pounced on me at the same time. Under the scorched skin, pieces of circuit structure were exposed.

Sure enough, these guys in windbreakers are probably all robots.After confirming that the beam attack stopped, I turned my head, and the vision in my eyes was immediately occupied by a pair of choppy white waves.

"Long time no see, brat." The owner of the choppy waves was driving an aircraft at the same speed as the subway near the window, narrating in a frivolous tone that I was familiar with.

I looked at her face, then looked down at her pair of big white rabbits that were about to come out, and the memory in my mind finally came back: "...Dr. Audrey?"

"Have I said it before, doctors are not my main job." The woman took off her helmet, revealing her beautiful hair and a coquettish smile, "Although I know you may have a lot to ask, it's better to change to another doctor." Let's talk again, how about?"

I glanced at the approaching army of robots, and then at Audrey who was sitting in the driver's seat, not knowing what to think, and I made a decision in my heart.As one of the few guys who knows my identity as an outsider, at least she is not with the robots who want to catch me, and that is enough.

I grabbed the hand extended by Dr. Audrey, stood on the bench of the subway, stepped on the window sill that was blown open, and with a little effort, I sat in the co-pilot seat of the aircraft.After seeing me coming up, Audrey immediately turned the steering wheel and drove the aircraft in a direction away from the subway.

"I joined the federal government and participated in this rescue mission as a mercenary, and Katerina and the others are also there." After making sure to get rid of the creepy robot army, Audrey said straightforwardly The answer I most want to know right now.

"Joined the federal government?"

"Correctly speaking, it should be regarded as being semi-forced to join." Audrey glanced at me, "Because we are the only ones who have a record of contacting you."

"...has the federal government noticed me?"

"Otherwise? You haven't realized what you have done, have you? Driving a giant dragon knight that no one can use, knocked down A and S-rank beasts successively, and even rivaled the incarnation of the judge. If Is it strange that you were not noticed? In the end, you disappeared after that battle. In order to get all the information about you, Katerina and I were summoned countless times, although there was nothing in the end. gone."

After all, I am not from this world. When I woke up, I found myself lying in a warehouse. How could people from this world find traces of me.

"Didn't you tell them that I'm actually from another world?"
