First Player

In the splendid hall, the long wooden citron table is full of retro carvings, and every inch is full of sophistication and heaviness.

When Mizushima Kawakora returned to his seat, his face was still confused.

……who I am? where am I? What am I doing?

She was originally in the Holy City, but who would have thought that the next second, she would suddenly be here.

...Is this the third tower? She thought this link had disappeared, why was it suddenly brought back?

She looked at the long table in front of her. No. 1 Su Mingan, No. 3 Lu Shu, No. 4 Noel, No. 11 Burris, and No. 12 Lu Meng.

Su Mingan's eyes were heavy and he spoke towards the ceiling:

"Diying, I'm still thinking, how do you want to snatch me away from those farmers with hoes? So that's it, you want to pull my consciousness back to the night phase. But is it useful? I understand everything now. The tower is just a setting similar to the Dream Patrol game. If the god discovers it, he will call me back soon."

Su Mingan's few words made several people suddenly enlightened.

"Oh...it turns out that the tower is SAO from Sword Art Online!"

Lu Meng learned that Su Ming'an was not dead and smiled: "The tower has the bonus of the word spirit, which can reproduce the damage in the tower into reality! This is the clever trick of the high-dimensional people to bypass the Utopia."

"I see... No wonder Agnes and Eli were already out, but I saw them in the Holy City again." Lu Shu seemed to finally understand.

The long table almost became a tea party. Mizushima Kawakora frowned and glanced around. Only then did she realize that Daoxuan was no longer there. He was probably killed by the vindictive Su Ming'an. Now the table was full of Su Ming'an's people.

Only then did they see a person sitting in the shadow in the corner of the hall. The man with long blond and black hair sat quietly on the chair, his eyes lowered.

"Die Ying, you don't just want to invite us over for a chat, do you?" Su Mingan said, "Is it too lonely in the starry sky?"

"I was quite afraid of him before. I thought he was a very oppressive boss." Lu Meng glanced at the shadow that looked like a lonely old man, and said quietly: "Now he looks like a funny character."

Lu Meng was completely ignorant and fearless. She didn't know that Dieying was still a threat, and thought that Su Ming'an had completely gained the upper hand. However, Noel did not refute after hearing this, and even said along with a smile:

"Shh...at least he is a handsome and funny character."

There were words that were difficult to understand one after another, such as "You are lucky to have a bit of Noel's charm", "Diede Leilei Nuo" and so on, which caused everyone to burst into laughter and the hall was filled with a happy atmosphere.

Dieying slowly stood up, and a huge shadow stood up behind him.

Lu Meng's voice dropped instantly, and she felt an extremely strong sense of threat, which was the suppression from the essence of life. Only then did she realize how bold what she had just said was.

"I don't have any conspiracy, I just want you to finish the game." Dieying walked to the long table: "The third tower I carefully prepared, if you don't finish it, it would... be a pity."

Su Mingan clasped his hands together and said calmly: "The tower should be a product of your cooperation with the organizer, just like the Silver Star copy in the sky. That's why we can see other people's lives, because they are all given by the world game Information. For completing this tower, we players will also receive points as rewards - because the world game recognizes the tower you built and regards it as a reasonable small copy. Even if it is to get points, we will finish your experience It’s a game, don’t worry.”

Noel said from the side: "The victory condition is that the witch is eliminated, so let's fight quickly. Mizushima Kawakora is the angel of judgment, and neither Noel nor Lu Shu is a witch. Then only... you, Burris."

Burris kept smiling. He stared at Su Mingan with reverence in his eyes. After seeing Su Mingan's god form, Burris's faith has become "deeply rooted in love", and no one can refuse Bai Mao.

"Of course I am willing to sacrifice everything for your victory." Burris put one hand on his chest: "But after I am eliminated, there will be the final third witch. I hope you will be careful."

After the banishment result came out, Burris left the table with a satisfied smile on his face.

"Who is the third witch?" Su Mingan asked.

After a brief silence, Lu Shu slowly raised his hand: "It's me. I will find a way out in the passage, and will not delay it to the next stage, and completely end this tower."

Su Mingan nodded and looked at Dieying.

"Please take care of Chang Ge. I know he is very cold. If it is cold for two more days, it will not be cold anymore." Su Mingan said lightly: "Your story is almost over."

Dieying just smiled: "Maybe we will meet again."

Su Mingan said: "Are you referring to the next Western Fantasy World? Still not, I hope I will never meet you again."

Su Mingan walked straight into the passage without even looking at Dieying. He was left alone, sitting in the empty hall, looking at the twelve empty seats.

This game in the third tower did not turn out to be a vigorous betrayal and revenge as he had hoped, and Su Mingan was not forced into a desperate situation by this identity battle. What was left in the end... was just the happy and victorious ending, and His shadow stretched by the candlelight.

He carefully prepared the game that no one expected.

Noel followed and whispered: "Why is Dieying so obsessed with you?"

Su Mingan glanced at Noel and said softly: "Can't you guess?"

...Can't you guess it? That golden black hair, blue eyes, new world ideas, embracing high-dimensional ideals.

You are so smart...can't you guess who He is?

Noel blinked and smiled: "I don't know which world of mine is the original one, but it's not my future anyway."

Su Ming'an said: "If it was the original, it would be impossible for him to have such a deep obsession with me. Unless... I am very much like His best friend, and He regards me as a close friend. Or, in the beginning... we are the same Who is the origin of whom? Or, does the concept of 'original' really exist? Maybe there is another term for it...'separation'?"

Noel stopped and looked at Su Mingan with his blue eyes.

"You are right to be suspicious. If you see so many similarities but don't have the slightest suspicion, then you are confused by me. I'm glad you are sober." Noel said: "Including me, too I started to doubt myself... what exactly I will do in the future. Is there a giant ouroboros that we haven't noticed yet. If I am really the product of 'separation'..."

His lips pursed.

"...It seems very reasonable. I was adopted, and I don't fully understand myself."

Su Mingan said nothing.

"While maintaining trust, please also maintain doubts about me. Because even I have begun to doubt myself..." Noel lowered his head: "But, I can assure you, at least at that unpredictable moment. Before...I will always assist you."

The corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

The clear and clean blue rippled in his eyes:

"...Because we...are allies."

As if returning to the conversation inside the Ferris wheel in the amusement park, the blond boy was building blocks and showing a bright smile. Fireworks exploded outside the window, the light and shadow were misty, and the photos were frozen for eternity.

Su Mingan shook his hand and quickly let go.

He had always had a premonition of separation. For Nuo'er, it was even more serious than Lu Shu and Yue Yue. It was a feeling... that we were destined to part ways.

However, until that time comes, they are indeed... the most in sync allies.

...as long as that moment never comes.

…

The 75th year of the Tian Dynasty is the era of martial arts.

The black-haired young man, who was about nineteen years old, was dressed in a black knight's uniform, like a shadow under the setting sun, sitting on the eaves with a horizontal sword, and his cultivation level was at the fifth level.

Geniuses and monsters are not uncommon in this day and age. But there are only a few people who can reach the fifth level, and they are all powerful in their eighties or nineties. Considering the young man's age, he is simply shockingly evil.

This kid... is so terrifying!

At the right time, a young man ran up to the end of the street. He had a ponytail and red lips and white teeth. At first glance, he came from a well-to-do family.

"Father!" the boy shouted and ran towards the young man in black.
