Secret: I can play two paths

Chapter 323 Adam Prepares for Peace Talks

Star is not sure whether it is because "Between Reality and Virtuality" is a high-level item that can be used to "tamper" with, and it can "bestow" power on others just like "Source Castle".

Or maybe the subsequent sequence of the "tampering" path itself has the ability to transform others into "players".

In short, there is no big problem in installing the "player" "module" on people, at least to make them temporarily become "players".

Yes, judging from the fact that the "magic item" carrying the power of the "Stranger" can help Medici become a "temporary gatekeeper", it is not a big problem to use extraordinary abilities that are several levels higher than the "Stranger" to make them "players" of this path.

The only thing to worry about is that the moment he returns, he will have to fight against the rule of "lifespan" in the real world, and he may encounter a problem that he has rarely encountered since the "bug" of "infinite spirituality":
The output is not spiritual enough!
If he transformed into Sequence 4, a demigod-level spirituality, even with the addition of "Between Reality and Illusion", it would still be difficult for him to resist the influence of the rules of the entire world on him.

This is a bit difficult...

Star turned around and saw the Ocean Singer Siatas. She rarely restrained her usual irritability and asked Mobet:
"Is what Mr. Star said true?"

At this point, Star had already done the relevant "transformation" with them, so Siatas and Mobet finally had time to talk to Mobet after hearing Star's story.

Although she was often irritable towards Mobet, she loved him in her heart.

The same goes for Mobet, otherwise he wouldn't have chosen to look at the other person at the end of his life despite saying that he was irritable and easily angered.

At the end of the story, he and Mobet passed away together, looking at each other and holding each other's hands.

This ending was somewhat inconsistent with their usual interactions, but it was not beyond the expectations of Groselle and the others:
Mobet and Siatas love and hate each other, and this is how it should be in the end.

However, dying due to the limitation of life span is indeed somewhat sad, and the fact that they understood each other's feelings only after death adds to the sadness.

Just as Star, for some unknown reason, mysteriously added a "narration" to this text at the end: "Every journey has its end."

But thinking of their own experiences and years of experience, Groselle and others were obviously prepared. "In case Star's preparations were not successful, they made all preparations before leaving, such as a will."

For example, he asked Star to remember to take his body to a certain place, or to help him keep an eye out for clues about his descendants and other close people...

For example, at the end, finish all your words:

So Xiatas was impatient, and even if it meant death, she had to communicate with Mobet about what they had said over the years.

Even if it had to be done in front of Groselle and the others—but after thousands of years of getting along, as companions, there was no need for them to hide such things from each other.

Of course, it is impossible to stay here:

"This is not home..."

Therefore, knowing this mentality, Groselle and the others chose to watch silently under the "tacit understanding" cultivated over thousands of years.

"it is true."

Mobet scratched his head, feeling a little overwhelmed.

This man, who looks to be in his thirties, has flaxen hair, dark brown eyes, a high nose bridge and thin lips. Even when he is sitting, he gives people a feeling of arrogance.

But at this moment, it seems extremely cramped.

After all, he did not lie, and the "thief" still spoke his inner thoughts.

"So, Siatas, do you love me?"

At this time, stroking the buttons of his coat, which were pinned up and down, in a disorderly manner, neither symmetrical nor coordinated, Mobet was very nervous.

What responded to him was Siatas's dissatisfied words:
"In the name of the storm, you are still saying such things at this time!"

Her voice was clear and soft, but her tone was full of irritability, as if she would raise her hands and shoot an arrow at Mobet at any time.

However, even though she didn't do so, there was still a hint of anger on Xiatas's delicate face with soft lines, and she gave Mobet a headbutt.

"Okay, okay."

At this time, Mobet raised his hand again and stroked his pointed and hard black hat.

It seemed that he felt pain because of Siatas's strength, or maybe he was simply using this method to divert his attention - after all, "execution in public" really made him feel uncomfortable.

At this time, after a dry cough, Star said:
"You two, although my story is very 'realistic', it sounds like the consequences have been revealed."

"But it's getting late. Do you want to go out and talk slowly? After all, it's a bit of a stretch for me to keep this door open and prevent it from disappearing."

After all, the core is the kingdom of the "Dragon of Imagination" Angerweed - the "City of Miracles" Levished. At this time, Star didn't know how long he could maintain it by simply "tampering" or "idealistically" opening the door, so he chose to interrupt their conversation at this time.

"Besides, you don't trust me so much? It's not like you won't be able to live in the real world if you don't become a 'player'."

“At worst, I’ll see if there’s a way to include you in the scope of Groselle’s Travels—it’s still life, isn’t it?”

Star smiled and pointed to the snow-covered gate:

"I can keep it open now. Even if it closes immediately after we get out, we can quickly sprinkle the blood we prepared in advance on Groselle's Travels. Even if we have to live in this world in the book in the future, at least we are still alive. Isn't this also a solution?"

"We all understand the reason."

Longzel nodded, holding up his iron-black sword.

Even though he would lose all his extraordinary powers after leaving, Longzel still wanted to "go home and take a look."

No matter what form the return takes...

"no problem."

Siatas said, and Mobet beside him nodded in agreement. Even the taciturn monk Snowman made a simple response.
At this time, Groselle, who was nearly four meters tall, laughed loudly:

"In that case, we can get ready to go."

In fact, after seeing Star kill the "King of the North" and clear up their "confusion", they had already regarded Star as a rare companion.

At this moment, Star offered to help proactively, so how could he dislike its "effectiveness"?

Although they could still choose to stay in the world of the book, Groselle and the others still made the same choice:

Put your life on Star!

The brief conversation just now was not only because they didn't want Star to work so hard to keep the door open, but also because they didn't want him to have so much pressure. Don't worry about them, they have already thought about the consequences of this matter!
At this time, Groselle took the initiative to step forward. After seeing that the snow-covered door was wide enough for someone of his height to pass through, he slightly bent his back, pressed his palms on the door, and pushed it open.

Then, as the giant exerted his strength suddenly, everything that everyone saw became illusory and transparent silently, and disappeared.

Before their eyes, they could quickly see rows of brown bookshelves, the orange sun outside the window that had already set on the horizon, and a table with pens, ink bottles, and papers.

This is the cabin on the "Golden Dream" of "Admiral Iceberg" Edwina!
Star and the others quickly turned their eyes to the center of the table, where a book bound with yellowish-brown parchment lay.

The book was flipped by the invisible wind and came to the last page. Star and others saw the ending:
"%&￥#'The King of the North' was defeated by a mysterious outsider alone, and Groselle and others also became @#￥"

Garbled characters and wrong symbols are present in this book, but this is not the most important thing:
While the pages were being turned, Edwina quickly took the blood of Groselle and others and approached the book "Groselle's Travels", ready to see if she could use this method to save their lives - of course, this was based on the fact that Star's attempt failed.

And this window period is only less than a breath!

To their surprise, or perhaps Star's method was indeed effective, there was no phenomenon of aging and dying, or loss of breathing, nor did the corpse rot quickly, with the flesh and blood evaporating, leaving only bones and the precipitation of extraordinary characteristics.

At the same time, Star was also rapidly using up the "stock of recovery spells" that he had stored in his "space backpack" when he was free, as well as another "card" of the "Son of Chaos".

“Extraordinary comes at a price.”

Even though Star's abilities were pure, he had to admit that he had to rely on these abilities to fight against the rules of the entire world and "tamper" with the fate of Groselle and the others:
This is still a stretch after all.

Fortunately, it may be that the level of "Son of Chaos" is very high, or it may be that "Between Reality and Illusion" has joined.

In short, Star finally broke out in a cold sweat as he maintained this attempt to transform Groselle and others into "players" and erase the concept of their "lifespan".

Although the effect can only last for another year, it is much better than just dying of old age.

So Groselle and the others stood here intact, but they were slightly embarrassed:

Due to the rush of time, their clothes either disappeared or turned into ash, leaving only the clothes that Star had divided in the "space backpack"...

Some of the clothes were tattered and poorly cut.

However, being alive was already a good thing, so Groselle and the others did not have any more requests.

Especially Groselle, the "silly giant", who was wearing the mysterious version of "Hulk's pants" that could only be prevented from falling off after Star's "idealism" and "module" modification, didn't care at all, but laughed out loud:
"Star, you really succeeded!"

In this situation, other people soon realized what was happening to them, and they all showed happy and joyful expressions to varying degrees.

Only Longzel was very "weak". Having lost the power of Sequence 5 "Punishment Knight", he was like "a Jinchūriki whose tailed beast had been removed" or "a Devil Fruit user who had encountered seastone". He exuded a feeling of weakness all over his body.

If he didn't have the basic qualities of a "player", it would be difficult for him to adapt at this moment.

Fortunately, power is false, but experience is real.

After more than a hundred years of experience, Longzel recovered quickly, and then looked in the direction of Backlund under the setting sun:

Even though the Southeast District of Backlund no longer existed, he still had the urge to go back right now.

However, he turned his head and looked at Star:
"I became a 'player'?"

"Yes, this is an extraordinary power that does not belong to this world."

Without going into too much detail, Star just stopped at the point.

Normally, after becoming a "player", one would naturally be influenced by him and "work for nothing" for him, but Star couldn't say it out loud, so he said to the people around him in a tactful way:
"This effect can last for about a year. You can also choose to look around first and then come to me. At that time, I will help you continue to maintain the subsequent 'conversion'."

"Or, if you have found other ways to repay your own lifespan, you can also cancel this 'transformation'."

"But even though 'room and board' are provided, you still have to help me with some things."

Sta doesn't want to maintain too many "clan-like" existences.

At present, he already feels that it is a bit strenuous to force others to become "players" like himself. If there are more, it will be a huge burden for him.

After understanding the meaning behind his words, Groselle and the others did not refute anything:
This kind of thing that saved their lives, and they spent a long time working for Star to repay it, actually provided a channel for repaying the debt.

Not to mention it's so free.

Moreover, this method can be regarded as maintaining the bond between these people who have been "isolated from the world for many years and are completely unaware of the changes in the outside world" and providing them with a bridge to re-understand the world.

If we have to make an analogy, it's like "Klein was admitted to the Nighthawks", or in some old-time comics, a "superhero" who saw the light of day again after many years joined a certain alliance.

I have to thank Star...

Everyone has their own ideas. In short, the protagonists from "Groselle's Travels" and others are caught up in a state of confusion but also a certain direction in their thinking about the future.

At this time, because Vice Admiral Iceberg Edwina did not establish a partnership with Groselle and others as originally developed, she turned to think:

"Something's wrong. Why haven't we heard any voices from the crew outside after being out for so long?"

"In fact, according to their usual habits, they should have come out by now and searched everywhere for clues about us..."

Before he finished speaking, Star also felt something was wrong and opened the door of the cabin.

All the crew members of the Golden Dream were standing still in the rough deep sea, and the edge of a giant island appeared in the distance.

Through the mist under the setting sun, Star soon saw that behind the forest and the mountain, there was a simple-looking, ancient church - from its remains, it could be seen that it once had thick walls, was magnificent and huge, and had high towers and bell towers.

This is the island where Adam laid the blasphemous card of "Tyrant".

The ship stays here, and the answer is obvious no matter what.

Star, who had gained some insight, quickly saw His intention:

Since you are so anxious to meet, then just meet Him and see what He is up to.

so……

Unable to think of a good adjective to describe his mood at the moment, Star, who was clearly arranged, sighed, looked at the quiet ship, and sighed:

Such a big hassle...
