First Player

Chapter 1254 Chapter 1251·"Cosmic Cat Learning."

"Cluster."

A little purple flame burned at the fingertips of the Lord, and the silver-white mask glowed with a bright warm light.

"Didn't you drink the tea I poured for you?" The Lord suddenly glanced at the table.

Su Mingan glanced at the tea with the fragrance of wisteria: "Is there any need to drink it?"

Who knows what the Lord added to the tea? They were meeting for the first time.

"This is my confident work." The Lord said: "If you are willing to cooperate with me, you'd better drink this cup of tea. Of course, equality is two-way. If you drink this cup of tea, I will also show my sincerity."

Su Mingan said: "Okay. But you have to promise me to let me see the goddess of life, Lotasha."

The Lord simply agreed: "Okay."

Su Mingan nodded, signaled the cat and fish on his shoulder to be alert, and picked up the porcelain cup on the table.

What the Lord didn't know was that [SSR·Xiao Ming] and [SR·Su Jingtang] had already been summoned by Su Ming'an. They were now squatting on the eaves of the palace. If Su Ming'an got into trouble, they would rush down.

Su Ming'an picked up the teacup. The tea tasted cool and sweet, just like the black tea brewed by Si Que in his dream.

Then came a sense of fantasy that surged from the inside of the body, as if surrounded by rainbow bubbles. It felt like stepping on clouds, and all the senses around him began to become unreal...

"What did you add?" Su Ming'an's voice became light and fluttery.

The Lord put his fingertips on the wings of the goddess statue and whispered:

"Pain reliever."

"...Or maybe it would be more appropriate to use 'Dream of the End of Life'?"

His golden eyes were deep, looking down at the purple flames trembling at his fingertips.

At this moment, Su Ming'an seemed to understand what the Lord wanted to do.

Then, the bright purple flames in the Lord's hands instantly enlarged, and rushed towards Su Ming'an at lightning speed.

"... I hope you like this surprise, Su Ming'an. If I guessed wrong, let's die together."

A wave of heat came towards him, but he didn't feel any pain, as if Su Lin had woven a dream of hospice care for Su Ming'an. The temperature of the flame was like a warm hot spring, making him feel like he was rolling in a golden sunflower bed.

This process took less than three seconds.

It took only three seconds from the tongue of fire touching Su Ming'an to spreading all over his body and finally engulfing his breath.

The Lord of the World had stood up, and a large piece of orange-red sunlight passed through the colored window, outlining his long hair like wisteria flowers, and a few strands of hair drooped on the statue. There was no madness in the golden eyes under the carved high window.

Under the backlight, his eyes sank into the dim shadow, and his thin shadow was like a swaying candlelight, stretched very long under the candlelight.

- It seemed that he was going against the gods and defying the light of heaven.

Under the layers of white gauze, the statue of the goddess still stood, looking down at everything that happened in the hall with kindness and compassion, as if witnessing something.

The voice echoed in the hall and reached Su Mingan's ears within three seconds:

"...Give me a flower, the first player."

...

Su Mingan opened his eyes.

The broad white wings spread out in front of his eyes, and the breeze was full of passing by his ears.

"...I am very strong, and I will only become stronger in the future. The world tree chose me, and I am destined not to be unknown." Pudding's clear voice echoed in his ears, and she held Su Mingan and flew all the way.

The front of her clothes was clean and tidy, and there was no blood on it.

...Returned.

Really returned.

Su Mingan felt like he had lost and found it. This was his first time to return in this eleventh world. He had already prepared himself to pass the level with one life.

The lighthouse jellyfish will revive as long as there is a little flesh and blood left, but if the whole body is completely destroyed... It will die regardless of whether it is eaten, corroded or burned.

He remembered the look in the eyes of the Lord of the World before the time reversal... No madness, no jealousy, just calmness.

For the Lord of the World, if he guessed wrong and Su Mingan died, he could also change other players to cooperate. If he guessed right, it would be a great success for him. Even if Su Mingan was replaced by Noel, the Lord of the World might do the same.

His emotions were extremely stable from beginning to end, and he was confident that everything was under control.

"Pudding, let's not run away, let's talk to the Lord of the World." Su Mingan said.

Pudding showed a disapproving expression: "What can that cruel and inhumane monarch who wants to capture you talk to you about? I think he is just missing a dish on the table."

Su Mingan's eyes were fixed: "Believe in my eloquence, and believe in my [male protagonist] strength and luck."

Pudding touched his sight, and the white wings behind him trembled: "If you are really confident, I won't stop you... Okay, let's stop."

After the two stopped, Su Mingan looked behind him, and Hui Bai hadn't arrived yet.

Pudding squatted down and washed her white wings with the clear water from the river. It was obvious that she cherished her wings very much.

"You just said that the Lord of the World was cruel and inhumane?" Su Mingan said.

"His cruelty... is well-known far and wide. A monarch who can stand firm in the center of the continent, has spies in thousands of countries, and orders dozens of surrounding countries to convert to the Goddess of Life... The number of lives he has killed directly or indirectly is no less than six figures." Pudding combed her white feathers lovingly, like a ragdoll cat licking its fur.

Su Mingan looked at the lake, his white hair swaying slightly in the waves, like a blooming daffodil.

He didn't expect the world master to be like this. Sure enough, those who can deal with the world game are not easy to deal with.

"Shua——!"

At this time, there was a sound of flying behind him.

Weibai hurried over and was about to throw a spear at Pudding. When he saw Su Mingan and Pudding by the stream, Weibai paused. He didn't expect Su Mingan and Pudding to stop.

Seeing Su Ming'an looking over, Wei Bai put the spear behind him with a slightly awkward look, smiled, and said as if nothing had happened: "Liu Jin, fortunately you are fine. I just saw Pudding taking you away, and I thought she wanted to attack you, so I hurried over to protect you."

Su Ming'an: "..."

Su Ming'an: "Take me to see the Lord of the World, don't hurt us."

Pudding stared at Wei Bai suspiciously: "A mere vicious villain, can he hurt me?"

Wei Bai said modestly: "Yes, my strength is still low, otherwise I wouldn't have watched Liu Jin being captured by the Celestial Clan in Hongta Country."

Su Ming'an: "..."

With Wei Bai's care along the way, they arrived at the central country of Karnas. With the farewell of the knight, Su Ming'an walked into the hall leisurely.

What Su Ming'an didn't see was that in the corner of the shadow, Wei Bai looked at his back indifferently, raised his hand, took off the blue beauty lenses embedded in his eyes, and revealed a pair of green eyes.

…

"You are here."

Under the colorful window, the sun was shining, and the purple-haired young man was still sitting at the top like a boneless person, with his long hair entangled with the statue of the goddess.

When Su Mingan came over, the Lord stared at Su Mingan's empty hands for a second, and his golden eyes quickly became lazy:

"First meeting. Su Mingan, please sit down."

Su Mingan sat down as he was told.

"I invited you here because I want to cooperate with you..." The Lord's voice was always indifferent.

"Lord." Su Mingan said calmly. In the Lord's eyes, Su Mingan stretched out his right hand, palm up, holding the fairy talisman.

"...I heard that you believe in the goddess of life, I want to give her a flower."

A white daisy, as Su Mingan drove the fairy talisman, appeared in his palm, swaying and shining.

The Lord's eyes moved slightly, stretched out his hand, took the white daisy, and inserted it into the hair of the goddess statue next to him.

"The goddess feels your sincerity, and He will bless every pious lamb." The Lord said with a smile.

When their eyes met, Su Mingan seemed to have received the unfinished words of the World Lord.

——I have received your "flower".

——I have also received your sincerity to cooperate with me, otherwise after time goes back, you will stay away from the Central Country instead of coming again.

This time, the content of the World Lord's conversation became more in-depth.

"What do you think is the essence of the World Game?" asked the World Lord.

Su Mingan has seen a lot of this question on the World Forum.

Some people say that the World Game is a magical instrument that wanders unconsciously in the universe. It comes from the beginning of the Big Bang and is formed by the coincidence of broken stars and initial life. Some people also say that the World Game is a knife jointly made by high dimensions to invade the world, using some cosmic rules to force people into the game. Others say that the World Game is a protective barrier for civilization, allowing all things to compete in the form of games, reducing the cruelty of civilization competition.

Su Mingan said:

"[I think the World Game itself is the World Game.]"

The World Lord's eyes were shocked.

Su Mingan said: "The world game is the game itself, and has no additional meaning, because the game itself has no meaning. The game is a natural instinct of humanoids or intelligent creatures in the process of evolution. Even cats or fish without advanced intelligence will have the urge to play."

"If the universe is compared to a cat, a vast black cat, then the emergence of the world game is [a cat has the urge to play cat climbing frames during its growth], and the world game is this instinct itself."

"In my understanding, the universe is alive. Even if it does not have autonomous consciousness, it will [breathe], have a [heartbeat], and will also have [nature] similar to that of living things in a sense."

"Among them, [breathing] may be a cycle of the universe's revolution and rotation time, and [heartbeat] may be the moment when an asteroid hits a planet. And [the nature of the game], the moment this instinct is generated, is internalized into the [world game] floating in the universe."

After Su Mingan finished speaking, the Lord of the World fell into deep thought.

After a long time, the Lord of the World spoke:

"Your unique [Cosmic Catology]... is very interesting."

... Is this the key point?

Su Mingan was speechless. His point is that the universe is alive and the game is the product of the internalization of instinct. It is not that the universe is a cat!

"Your idea is very insightful, and maybe you are right, but listen to my idea." The Lord of the World said.

Su Mingan raised the porcelain cup.

The Lord of the World smiled and said:

...

"-I think the essence of the world game is [a book]."

...

"Each world has its own unique characteristics. Praya's characteristics are sirens and magic, the characteristics of the ruins world are technology and computing, and the characteristics of the old world are talismans and barriers."

"The characteristics of Rovasha are the power of creation."

"If you want to survive, you must play the characteristics of each civilization to the extreme. Just like the Dawn system of the ruins world, the ideal country of the old world is the ultimate embodiment of an era."

"And in Luowasha, Si Que of the Third Age is the master of the power of creation. His writing skills are so superb that he can play with Luowasha, create super-era technology and magic that would have been impossible, and even create life, pushing civilization forward by several big steps."

"Then, my hypothesis is... the world game is such a vast book, everything is created. As long as we find a way to tear it apart, we can end it."

"So, the key is how we can kill this [cat] or tear up this [book]." Su Mingan said.

"That's right."

The conversation between smart people is concise and to the point.

At this time, the Lord of the World seemed to sense something and looked out the window.

"I seem to have said something too core." The Lord of the World smiled and said: "Someone is coming to kill me."

Su Mingan suddenly remembered that on the world chessboard, the Ocean Angel also sensed that someone was coming, so he wanted to escape.

...Who is that person? Even the Ocean Angel and the Lord of the World dare not face it.

"Please, first player."

The fluorescent purple flame lit up, and under the dazzling colored window, the purple-haired young man stretched out his hand to Su Mingan again, with his palm facing outward.

"I want to give the goddess a white daisy." His voice was as beautiful as reciting a poem:

"I want to give the goddess a bright red shawl."

"I want to give the goddess a gorgeous crown."

"When a traveler passing by gives these to me, I will invite him to meet the goddess together."

...

The purple fire bloomed like a flower.

The statue stood as before.

In the poem flowing with the fragrance of wisteria,

the traveler stepped into the next section of the river.
