Elf Archer of Life in Another World

When the Nine-Colored Immortal Deer saw Nian Nian again, she looked as if she had just been fished out of the water. While twisting her wet cloak, she kicked and swung it around as she walked in.

The fallen leaves on the soles of my shoes took the time to wave to them:

"Good morning!"

It raised its head, looked at the white and purple sky outside through the tree hole above its head, and asked:

"He's gone?"

"He?" Nian Nian twisted his cloak with his hands and looked at it in surprise, "Did you know that Simil was here just now? No, you know him?!"

How did these two people, one a native Huaxia Lu and the other a foreigner who had just arrived, meet?

Jiuse Dengxianlu nodded: "I know him, he is my creator."

"Creator?" Niannian suddenly said, "That guy is indeed an official. He even lied to me before that he was not GM."

"He is indeed not the GM you are talking about." Jiuse Dengxianlu corrected Nian Nian's words, "He and I have the same existence form, but the core is different."

"I understand," Nian Nian said, taking off his cloak and shaking with a "clatter, clatter, clatter," "One core is a human, and the other is, artificial intelligence? Program?"

Carrying the still dripping cloak, Nian Nian thought for a moment and then turned his attention to the antlers of the Nine-Colored Immortal Deer.

"What do you want to do?" Jiuse Dengxianlu looked at Nian Nian unblinkingly.

"Ahem...it's nothing." Nian Nian withdrew his gaze and changed the subject, "So Simil is here to rescue you? That's really hard work for him. He went through such a big circle for you."

Even if Simil himself doesn't have the ability to rush in and save the deer, he doesn't have to go to Zimo and the others for help, right? It would have been better if he had accepted the mission with them in Taibai Town.

unless……

"It's not his purpose to help me leave here, it's just a necessary step to achieve his goal." Jiuse Dengxianlu's calm voice sounded.

"Then what is his purpose?"

"He did it for" Jiuse Dengxianlu's words were suddenly intercepted, and then he looked at Niannian apologetically, "I can't tell you this part of the content at the moment, I'm sorry."

"It's okay, it's okay," Niannian waved her hands quickly, "This is not your fault, you don't need to apologize."

Jiuse Dengxianlu looked at her expression and was silent for a while: "...because I am not a being who can express myself freely, let alone control my own behavior, so you feel there is no need to blame me, right?"

"Um..." Nian Nian was speechless. Although she did think so, it seemed that now was not the time to be an honest person.

"That's not what you meant. I still like your way of expression, really. I know you want to tell me the truth, but you can't. You are better than the kind who can tell me the truth, but don't want to tell me.

People are much better off.”

"Do you mean Simir by the latter?" Jiuse Dengxianlu shook his head, "He can't tell you that although our actions are free to a certain extent, there are also many restrictions."

"You..." Nian Nian hugged his cloak and was not in the mood to care about the dripping water drops. "You are very different from other NPCs. I don't mean thinking, but you seem to be more...

Be more independent and seem to have your own purpose in everything you do.”

"All creatures in this world move with purpose. Some creatures' purposes are very random and change from time to time, just like you. Some creatures' lives are very simple, just following the steps step by step, just like what you said.

Those other NPCs."

"The survival goals of some creatures will be very complex and specific. The time required to achieve the goals may be very long, and the methods used may be different. In the process of achieving the goals, and after the goals are achieved, the entire world may

will be profoundly affected.”

Nian Nian thought about the information revealed in Jiuse Dengxianlu's words, sorted it out a little and asked:

"In other words, you and Simil both have their own action goals, and they can also adopt different policies or means to achieve this goal. And this goal is essentially to influence the world, that is, to promote the development of the plot in this world?

"

"The world itself is alive." Jiuse Dengxianlu did not answer Nian Nian's question, but simply summarized it like this.

Nian Nian understood it, and after she understood it, she realized that it was actually very simple.

Many people have been curious about a question: Since the official has always claimed that players will drive the development of the game world themselves, and the official will never intervene in any changes in the game world, what if the players completely destroy the world one day?

Will this game end?

Now Nian Nian understands that on the surface, the official is allowing players to freely decide the development of the world, but it has also set up some NPCs such as Simir. First, give them the same or even slightly higher degree of freedom than the players.

An ultimate goal is set for them, and perhaps a time frame for achieving the goal is set to ensure that they can finally complete the mission that the officials want them to complete on time.

This world is alive. Even if there is no player in this world, the entire world will still develop according to a certain rhythm. The intervention of players is just adjusting that rhythm.

"The officials did a great job. This is the mastermind behind the scenes at a model level!" sighed every year.

"You seem to agree with this approach." Jiuse Dengxianlu thinks that most players will not like to hear this truth. After all, those players prefer to hear that the world is "vivid because of them and exists because of them."

This kind of statement.

"At least you don't have to worry about the world being destroyed one day!" Nian Nian shrugged.

"You don't have to worry about this. After all, we all rely on this world to exist, so we will all work hard to maintain the normal operation of this world." Jiuse Dengxianlu said.

Nian Nian smiled and turned the topic back to Simil: "So that guy Simil is both your creator and your colleague? But you two seem to be hostile, right?"

The most reasonable explanation for why Simil wanted to work with Zimo and the others to track these people every year is that he could not get the guidance of the Nine Colored Immortal Deer.

Or perhaps, it was precisely because of Ximir's existence that Zimo's people were hostile to the Nine-Colored Immortal Deer? Otherwise, Ximir would not have left the team he was in every year.

"It is true that we are hostile, but we also need to coexist." Jiuse Dengxianlu's answer was very concise, as if he was afraid of being banned again if he said too much.

"A relationship of opposites and coexistence?" Niannian thought of another word she heard from Qinghua Fuling, and thought it was quite appropriate to use it here, "Love and kill each other?"

"Love?" Jiuse Dengxianlu thought for a moment, "There is no such relationship as 'love' between us."

"...That's for sure."

Nian Nian just said it casually. Of course she knew that the two of them were not in a love relationship. Ximir didn't talk about it for now. Does the Nine-Colored Immortal Deer have the function of "love"?

"You think that I don't understand the meaning of the word 'love', so there can be no such relationship as 'love'." Jiuse Dengxianlu quietly stared at Niannian's face, as if he was using "mind reading"

, two sentences made Niannian instantly embarrassed.

"I believe you know the meaning of 'love'," Niannian hurriedly said, "With your knowledge base, whether it is from a physiological point of view, a psychological point of view, or some artistic expression, you definitely know better than me.

There’s so much!”

"Although I know a lot of knowledge, as an artificial creature, I cannot actually 'love' someone." Jiuse Dengxianlu once again guessed the subtext of Nian Nian.

Nian Nian immediately apologized: "Isn't it okay that I made a mistake? Can you please stop dwelling on this issue?"

Jiuse Dengxianlu obediently stopped worrying about this issue.

It stopped speaking and just stared at Nian Nian who was sitting on the ground.

"What did you observe again?" Nian Nian rubbed his face and asked.

"I want to ask you a question." Jiuse Dengxianlu said calmly.

"You said." Looking at it every year, I saw a hint of inquiry in its eyes.

"You humans always say that we don't have a heart that can be used to express 'love' and 'heart', but when you humans judge a person's heart and love, you can't see his heart, and you can only use her or his

External performance is the standard to judge, right?”

"Can you be more specific?" Niannian supported his chin with his hand, "Besides, I haven't been in love yet. I have neither been expressed to others nor expressed any love or affection myself. I'm afraid of what you said.

I can’t answer it.”

Jiusedenxianlu was silent again, and then changed the question: "Don't you think existences like us are the most suitable companions for humans?"

"Eh?" Nian Nian was startled by the sudden turn of the question of Nine Colored Immortal Deer, and then asked in a daze, "Really? Why?"

"The feelings that human beings need, whether it is family, friendship or love, they just hope to have someone who will always accompany them, identify themselves, and satisfy themselves."

Jiusedenxianlu seems to have been thinking about this issue for a long time, and now he finally has an audience, and he can finally put it all into words.

"In this case, wouldn't intelligent artificial life forms like us be more suitable? We are immortal, we will never betray or deceive, and we can change ourselves at any time according to human wishes."

“We can remember every trivial preference and habit of our partner, observe every subtle change in his expression, always maintain the same hobbies with him, always only say what he likes to hear, and always present the appearance he likes.

His character can even be changed into the appearance he wants at any time according to his preferences."

"We can perform the most formal and elegant ceremony, or we can be the most considerate and meticulous helper. From life to work to entertainment, we can accompany a person in every possible way, all the time, until he decides that he no longer needs us."

"And precisely because we have no feelings, we will not cover up our expression of 'love' for a person because of external reasons, nor will we be sad because of being abandoned or betrayed, nor will we add unnecessary burdens to the humans who abandon us.

Guilt."

"Isn't this what an ideal partner should look like?"
