This second dimension is too immortal

Although the woman had left, her words still lingered in Zhao Si's ears, so even though he was curious about the beam of light in front of him, Zhao Si had no intention of going forward to touch it.

However, although he did not intend to touch the light column, Zhao Si did not choose to leave, but stayed and continued to observe the future development of this place.

After all, according to what that woman said, by observing these situations, Zhao Si could get information about the progress of the mission?

In short, Zhao Si was sitting cross-legged beside the fainted girl with blonde hair and twin ponytails, staring quietly at the beam of light in front of him, waiting for things to develop.

At the same time, the painful moans from the surrounding crowd began to gradually subside, and there were many more figures lying on the ground like the girl with twin ponytails.

Apart from these people, the rest stood up again and focused their gaze on the beam of light in front of them again.

"Oh?"

Feeling the movements around him, Zhao Si glanced at the people around him and found that their conditions were very different from before.

If there is one biggest difference, it must be their eyes.

Before, every one of these people had dull and confused eyes, but now, as each of their eyes became clearer, there were also some different changes, becoming more in line with their own image.

"I see. I remember now. I remember everything..."

Beside Zhao Si, a thin man with long black hair muttered to himself. Then, he took a step forward and walked towards the beam of light without hesitation.

His actions were like a new signal. Those who stood up again all raised their feet and walked towards the column of light.

"So, their situation just now was caused by the awakening of their own memories? Then what are they going to do now by going towards the light column?" Looking at the actions of these people, Zhao Si said puzzledly.

Zhao Si remembered that Old Lady Lim once said that those who suddenly appeared on the first floor had no memories of their own and remembered nothing except their names.

At this moment, the appearance of the light column made these people recall their past memories, and attracted those who successfully recovered their memories to continue to touch the light column.

Hmm, there seems to be a sense of selection and déjà vu here. If that's the case, then could it be that these people will be transported somewhere by the beam of light?... Oh! As expected, it really is like that.

Looking at the situation in front of him, Zhao Si thought, with an expression of surprise on his face.

The first person who touched the light column, when he put his hand into the light column, a wave exactly the same as the one Zhao Si had sensed before suddenly emerged from the light column, and then a new light column, which could only cover one person, hung down from the sky and enveloped that person.

The light of the pillar of light became stronger and stronger. Under the cover of the pillar of light, the man's figure gradually disappeared. When his figure completely disappeared, the pillar of light also rose into the sky.

At the same time, a familiar voice sounded in Zhao Si's mind.

Congratulations to the host! Successfully activated the hidden clues related to the main quest: Secret of the World·Rebirth

"Hmm? Rebirth?"

Hearing this, Zhao Si looked at the descending beam of light in front of him and the people enveloped by it with some surprise.

There is no doubt that the so-called secret of the world: rebirth refers to the situation of these people in front of him. Their departure was not like what Zhao Si thought, that they were sent to a certain place, but it was directly equivalent to getting a chance to restart their life. To be honest, Zhao Si did not expect this.

"Wow, they've been reborn, and these people still have their memories. They're all templates for the main characters. Is this really okay?" Zhao Si shook his head and laughed.

Although he was a little surprised, since the woman told him not to explore the mystery, for Zhao Si, it was just a matter of being a little surprised and there was no need to take it to heart.

In comparison, the fact that the main mission had new changes made him feel better. At least this time it was not a waste of time.

"Come to think of it, if those who stood up again passed the 'screening' and got the chance to start over, then what about those who were lying unconscious on the ground?" Zhao Si looked at the girl with blonde twin ponytails beside him, and the unconscious people around him.

Will there be another chance later? Or will I lose the chance to reopen and become a true part of Aincrad?

In Zhao Si's opinion, no matter what, the existence of these people contains some special reasons, otherwise they would not appear in Aincrad.

And considering that Feng Zichuan alone can increase the progress of Zhao Si's mission, it is even less likely that these people are just passers-by.

Logically speaking, it is unlikely that they would be left alone like this.

As Zhao Si was thinking this, in this short period of time, all those who stood up again had disappeared because of touching the light column. With the disappearance of the last person, the light column began to undergo new changes.

The originally azure light suddenly dimmed and turned into pure white light in the blink of an eye.

"Oh? It turned white? Looks like there's still hope. So what's next..."

As Zhao Si was speaking, dozens of pure white beams of light descended from the sky again, covering those who had fallen unconscious. Then, just like those people before, the white light carried the unconscious people up into the sky.

As the white beam of light disappeared, the original beam of light also gradually disappeared. Everything seemed to end and the night returned to calm.

However...

"...No, is that the end? But there's another one here! Are we just going to ignore it?"

Zhao Si's somewhat doubtful voice sounded, and he looked at the yellow-haired girl with twin ponytails beside him who seemed to have been forgotten, and he was completely stunned.

He repeatedly looked up at the starry sky, hoping to see the beam of light from before. However, to his disappointment, the night sky remained the same, and no other light appeared except the starlight.

"No way, are we really just going to ignore it? That's too unreliable." Zhao Si sighed and looked down at the unconscious girl, not knowing how to deal with it for a moment.

"Forget it, let's take her back. Maybe Erya and Xiaowu know her." After thinking about it, Zhao Si decided not to sit idly by and chose to take the girl away.

After all, it was a dark and windy night. Although there were no players on the first floor now, this was the wilderness, with plenty of monsters and wild monsters. If Zhao Si really just sat back and watched, it was hard to say whether he would be able to see her when he came back tomorrow.

"Let's go. The light column clearly turned white, but the system didn't react at all. It seems that the treatment is not as good as the blue light. What a pity." Shaking his head, Zhao Si said as he picked up the girl with blonde twin tails and prepared to leave.

And just at this moment...

"Wait, wait a minute! This gentleman..."

A voice other than Zhao Si's was heard in the silent night sky, with a hint of hesitation and uneasiness in the words.

Zhao Si retracted the step he had just taken and turned to look towards the source of the sound.

There, a girl with short pink hair, pink eyes, and wearing a girls' middle school uniform was looking at him.

Zhao Si:

Scoring twice?

Chapter 548 Yinglili

On the first floor of Aincrad, in the home of old lady Lim.

Speaking of which, when Zhao Si saw those people being teleported away by the light column, he had guessed whether Zichuan Feng, who had the same existence as those people, would also encounter a similar situation during that period of time.

As it turned out, Zhao Si's guess was not wrong. When he returned to Old Lady Lim's house, there was no trace of Azikawa Feng in the house. There was only the unconscious Leah and Old Lady Lim, as well as Erya who was waiting for Zhao Si to come back.

"Zhao Si! You're back! Zichuan Feng!" Seeing Zhao Si coming back, Erya breathed a sigh of relief and immediately came up to him, wanting to explain the situation to him.

But without her saying anything, Zhao Si could guess what was going on and immediately stopped her from continuing.

"I already know. It's okay. Under normal circumstances, the child should be fine." Zhao Si said.

After the incident, he did not return to Erya immediately, but quickly searched the entire first floor. He did not find anyone who looked like Azusakawa Kaede.

Obviously, in addition to those who went to the light column, some people who did not go under the light column were also unable to stay and were taken away by the light column. It was obvious that Azikawa Feng was no exception.

"The child disappeared after being enveloped by a beam of light, right?" Zhao Sitong Erya asked.

"Hmm, uh? How did you know?" Erya nodded, then asked with some confusion.

After saying that, she thought for a moment and added, "Not long after you left, Zichuan Feng wanted to run out like a madman, but how could I let her go out in her condition? So I stopped her. Then she started covering her head and crying in pain. I checked her, but didn't find anything wrong."

"Then it happened just as you said. A beam of light came from nowhere and hit her. Then Grandma Lim fainted, Leah also fainted, and Azusakawa Kaede disappeared."

"So what is going on here?"

"Well, I don't know the specific situation, but I can guarantee that it's not a bad thing. I encountered many similar situations outside just now." Zhao Si said.

"By the way, is that beam of light blue or white?"

"Of course it's white. From what you said, there is a blue beam of light? Is that why you went out just now?" Erya asked.

"Yes." Zhao Si nodded.

White, so I guess Azusakawa Kaede won’t have the chance to reopen, which is a pity.

Shaking his head, Zhao Si looked at the unconscious old lady Lim and Liya on the ground, thought for a moment and said to Erya, "Now those mysterious people have almost all disappeared. They were all taken away by the light column just like Zichuan Feng. The purpose of our coming here is gone. What are your plans next?"

"All gone?" Erya said in surprise.

"Planning, what's there to plan for? Since everything is fine, let's go back. There's nothing good to stay here."

"Are you going back just like that?" Zhao Si raised his eyebrows and pointed at Leah lying on the ground and said with a smile.

"What about your apprentice? Aren't you going to take her with you?"

"Tsk, what apprentice? I have no intention of accepting her as my apprentice at all." Hearing this, Erya glanced at Leah and said with a pout.

"What does this have to do with whether you have any plans or not? Haven't you already triggered the task of taking her in as your apprentice? And it seems to be a mandatory task. Can you deny it?" Zhao Si smiled and continued, looking at the stubborn Erya.

Although she didn't know what the current situation in the world was, Leah, who had turned into a real person, could still issue tasks to Erya, and the tasks she gave were the kind that could not be refused.

Although Erya said that she had not yet admitted to accepting Leah as her apprentice, she had accepted the mission, and the title of master and apprentice was confirmed, so nothing she could say would work.

"....What do you care about me? Humph, let's go!" Hearing this, Erya was silent for a while, then he hummed and walked out of the house.

"Hey, I'm not saying this, but do you know what you look like now? Just like what you and Xiao Wu said when you were chatting... tsundere! Yes, it's tsundere." Zhao Si thought about it and said with sudden realization.

As soon as Zhao Si finished speaking, a pink fist suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Boom!"

"Tsundere, you idiot, are you going to leave or not?"

A punch hit Zhao Si on the forehead, and Erya looked a little exasperated as he glared at him and said with a hint of red on his face.

He touched his head and found that Erya’s strength was not painful at all for Zhao Si. He looked at Erya in front of him and smiled.

"Okay, okay, let's go now. No more words, tut tut." Zhao Si said with a smile and walked out of the room.

"...annoying guy, huh."

Looking at Zhao Si's back, Erya spat in dissatisfaction, then she turned to look at Leah on the floor, thought for a while, opened the game warehouse, took out something and put it on the table.

After doing all this, Erya followed Zhao Si and left.

"T-this is... Eriri?"

Well, who is it, who is talking about me?

As her consciousness regained consciousness from the chaos, the sleeping girl vaguely heard a few words, which contained the only remaining memory in her memory - her name.

Sawamura Spencer Eriri, this is the girl's name, the only thing she remembers in her heart.

"Oh? You called me by my name, so you finally recognize me this time?"

Her consciousness gradually became clearer, and she received more accurate information from the outside world. This time, an unfamiliar male voice sounded in Eriri's ears, as if responding to the previous voice.

"...You can't blame me for this. Whether it's Azusagawa Kaede or Nanami Chiaki, I've never heard of any of their stories. How could they possibly know each other?"

"Oh, but I do have a vague impression of the name Nanami Chiaki. I seem to have heard it from Xiao Wu before. She must know something about Nanami Chiaki." This was the first female voice I heard.

"You know about me? If that's the case, does that mean Miss Xiao Wu was originally from the same place as me?" This was another unfamiliar voice, sounding a little bland, and it was a female voice.

What the hell is going on? What the hell am I...

Listening to the conversation of the three people next to her, Ying Lili couldn't help but think puzzledly.

"No, that's not the case. Xiao Wu is Zhao Si's sister. They are not from your place. As for why she knows about you, well... ahaha." said the female voice at the beginning.

"Is that so..." another female voice.

Just as Eriri was listening to the conversation between the three people with confusion, a sudden word from the male voice among the three attracted Eriri's entire attention.

"Since you know about her, tell me about it. I'm quite curious about her."

My story...?

As Eriri listened to the man's words, she couldn't help but hold her breath and listen attentively.

Chapter 549 Choice

Why is Zhao Si curious about Ying Lili?

In fact, it’s not because Ying Lili is so beautiful and cute. There are so many cute and beautiful girls around Zhao Si. How could he be curious only about Ying Lili whom he met for the first time?

In reality, Zhao Si's idea was very simple. He simply thought that there might be something special about Ying Lili, which was why she was not taken away by the white beam of light.

If he could figure this out, Zhao Si felt that it would be helpful to the progress of his mission.

This is Zhao Si’s purpose, simple and pure.

At Zhao Si's request, Erya naturally told everything he knew about Ying Lili without reservation.

However, as he listened, Zhao Si's original anticipation gradually cooled down.

No, this doesn't sound like what I expected!

Things like childhood sweethearts, book artist, game maker, Shura Field, golden-haired loser, etc. Although Zhao Si was a little confused by some of the words Erya said, after listening to them generally, Zhao Si also figured out the general background of Eriri's story.

Isn't this just a story about daily youth life? It has nothing to do with mystery or anything like that.
