War Paradise

Under the guidance of Commander Mu, Lin Chi and Moriya walked into the magnificent palace, followed the spiral staircase all the way up to the top terrace.

Like the last time we met, Xia Ye, the queen of Institution City, is still very aura today.

She wore a black dress embroidered with scarlet patterns, which was in sharp contrast with the pure white Molliya. Long waist-length hair swayed behind his back, and the cyan eyes exposed under Qi Liuhai stared straight at Lin Chi.

"Welcome your visit." Xia Ye grabbed the skirt with both hands and bowed slightly.

"I didn't expect to see each other again." Lin Chi smiled and said, "The last time we met...it seemed unpleasant."

"Thank you very much if you can bring that letter to me." Xia Ye smiled slightly, and raised her bloodless right finger downward.

Regardless of skin color or attire, the queen looked more like a vampire than Moria. Her voice sounded extraordinarily ethereal, as if from a cold abyss.

"I didn't expect the Queen to remember me." Lin Chi teased, "I thought you had forgotten me."

"My memory is indeed messy, but the battle with you impressed me." Xia Ye nodded slightly: "Look at the scenery on the street."

Lin Chi stood on the edge of the terrace, staring at the chessboard-like city below, and saw the bustling passers-by on the street disappearing one by one.

Those people seemed to have stepped into the void, and suddenly evaporated without warning. At the same time, many dead are constantly appearing. As Moria said, this place is like a transit point.

"What's going on?" Lin Chi asked.

"Even if they have died, the residents here cannot get permanent peace."

The smile on Xia Ye's face disappeared, replaced by a sad expression: "Our souls will never be free."

"Is this...reuse?" Lin Chi realized the truth of the matter.

"Yes." The queen nodded: "The damn creator is hopeless."

——Even if the server of "War of Heaven" is extraordinary, it requires too much computing to create a large number of "humans" every moment.

It seems that in order to avoid server crashes, the creators thought of a way to recycle these dead NPCs.

"Those sad guys don't know where they are going or when they will die again, but I do."

Xia Ye pressed her hands on the icy railings, staring at the re-engraved organ city below, and her voice drifted into the distance with the wind: "I have been back seven times, and every time I am killed, I will be thrown back to this place. The world comes."

"It's really fortunate that you can continue to rule this city like this." Lin Chi said with emotion.

Hearing Lin Chi's words, Xia Ye laughed and raised her head to stare at the blue sky:

"The Creator used us as a tool to resurrect and die again and again, which has made us tired. Look at these people, they don't even know what happened, and the memory will be erased every time they resurrect."

"The human beings in our world may also be in this state." Lin Chi smiled and said, "The story of Samsara's reincarnation is still believed by many people."

——If Samsara's reincarnation really exists, it should be as cruel as in the war paradise. Those who expect to be able to "start again" after death may not realize that this Samsara is not a gift, but a terrible curse.

And now, as the queen of the kingdom of the dead, what Xia Ye has to do is to bring this Samsara to an end:

"I want to end this decaying Samsara and let the residents here get permanent relief."

The empress's voice was unquestionably determined, and her hands clenched the railing tightly: "As long as you find the'Death Messenger', you can end it all."

"Where is he?" Lin Chi asked.

The creator who controls the world of the dead is indeed named "Death messenger". But this extremely mysterious guy, naturally, can't show up so easily.

For this person, Lin Chi had only heard the name from the war observer, and had no idea what the other party looked like, let alone found him.

"He won't appear, but I have a way to show him." Xia Ye gritted her teeth: "A monster under his command is spreading Death in another world. I can't go to that world now, but as long as you can get rid of it. That monster, Death messenger may come personally."

"What's the name of the monster?"

"He calls himself the'roaring devil'. He has deceived an outsider like you, and is killing him everywhere." Xia Ye gave the target's name: "The code name of the outsider he bewitched. It's the'terminator'."

"Ha, no wonder the Terminator didn't send a blood this time." Lin Chi smiled.

According to Xia Ye, the poor child of the "Terminator" should have been fooled by the devil sent by the Death messenger.

There is no doubt that it will be very difficult to defeat that kind of guy. However, with the current development trend of Flame Wind City, he is not completely out of chance.

Moreover, since the opponent is also a player in the same game with him, this duel will come sooner or later. Instead of dragging it to the late stage to make the Terminator stronger, it is better to find a way to solve it as soon as possible.

"Tell me which territory the Terminator controls." Lin Chi, who accepted the task, put forward his own demand: "If possible, tell me the status of other'outsiders' controlling the territory."

"Okay." Xia Ye nodded slightly: "When you return to that world, you will remember this information."

While speaking, the queen raised her right hand and created a dark portal on the terrace:

"Through this door, you can go back to the original world. I believe that if it were you, it should be possible to end all this."

"Um... maybe." Lin Chi didn't say too much.

Before stepping into the portal, he turned his head and asked one last time: "Are you really going to give up this Samsara?"

"Yes, my heart is determined." Xia Ye replied without hesitation: "This is a nightmare with no end in sight. It is true for all the dead here."

"I don't think so." Lin Chi shook his head.

"Do you think this kind of life has'meaning' at all?" Xia Ye stared at him firmly.

Facing the resolute queen, Lin Chi whispered his own point of view:

"I don't think that permanence is a curse. You die before you experience anything. This is the real nightmare."

After speaking, he and Moria stepped into the portal together, and disappeared on the palace terrace, leaving only the lonely queen, staring blankly at the place where the portal disappeared.
