"you……"

Chen An looked at the young man in front of him in disbelief, unable to even speak for a moment.

"I don't know how you came to this world, but unfortunately, no matter how good your concealment is, you didn't hide it from the smart brain's scan in the end."

The young man raised his hand and pointed to the sky.

"So after accepting her warning, I took the initiative to negotiate with you. After all, you and I are at least one person who share the same fate."

"...What are you going to treat me?" Chen An said in silence for a while.

"Actually, you don't have to be too cautious and conflicted. If we really want to deal with you, do you think you can live until now?" the young man said calmly. "Although troubleshooting data is her job, for my sake, at least she will not do anything to you now. She and I just want to know two things: how did you come to this world and what is your purpose in this world?"

"What about you?" Chen An suddenly asked back. "Since you and I are both real people in this virtual network world, why did you say she didn't deal with you?"

"Do you really think she hasn't dealt with me?" The young man glanced at Chen An deeply.

"..." Chen An seemed to realize something and shut up, but instead turned the topic to his previous question. "Are there any science fiction novels such as traveling through time and space in your world?"

"Some." The young man nodded.

"My current situation is like the protagonist in a science fiction novel. According to real time, about a year ago, a meteor from outside hit my head..."

Next, Chen An told the other party truthfully about his experience.

"I see."

Chen An looked up at the sky, as if he was having some communication with someone and said slowly.

"A player is here, this is not a place to talk."

In an instant, under a colorful space twist, the two disappeared into the mountaintop pavilion at Galves Harbor, and when they appeared again, they were already on the edge of a sparkling lake.

Chen An unconsciously looked at the map display, and only four words were displayed on the map.

Unknown territory.

"No need to watch it. This is the most mysterious place for restraint in this world. Maybe the map will be opened when the game is approaching the end."

The young man seemed to notice Chen An's actions and pointed it out directly.

Then, he clapped his hands.

A table and two chairs immediately appeared out of thin air on the shore of the lake.

"please."

He reached out to Chen An to show his hand, and then he pulled open the chair and sat on it.

"In other words, about half a year later, will you return to your original world again?"

As soon as Chen An finished seat, the young man looked at the lake in the distance and asked.

"At least the rules before were the same." Chen An calmed down and said. "To be honest, you are the first alien I met who is in a similar situation as me. After you said that, I still feel incredible until now, and I always feel like a dream and unreal."

"I am different from you." The young man shook his head. "Because you are still alive, I am dead."

“???”

"Don't you understand? I'm dead in reality. Now I'm just a ghost living in the game network." The young man explained softly. "Since this game is still in the stand-alone stage, I came here. Until the game evolved into a large online virtual online game, I have never left. When the life of this game ends, I can escape from this world and regain freedom. This is my agreement with her, my destiny."

"Is it very lonely?" Chen An was silent for a long time.

"What do you think?" the young man shook his head. "After watching you, I found that you are very similar to me in the past."

"Character?" Chen Anduo.

"To be precise, it should be similar experiences that cause changes in temperament." The young man turned his head and looked at Chen An and said. "I can see that you are very confused."

"I have been an ordinary person since I was a child. If I hadn't been that adventure, maybe my life would have gone to death without turbulence. Can you imagine an ordinary person suddenly transforming into a superman, and even being accustomed to killing? Such a huge gap makes me unable to tell where to go in the future." Chen An sighed with emotion. "I have seen a psychologist, but unfortunately the effect is not good, because they can never respond to the confusion in my heart, so I try to calm down and be indifferent. It seems that only in this way can I forget all kinds of confusion and troubles."

"That's why I said you are very similar to me in the past." The young man turned out two pots of wine from the table, handed them to Chen An, and took the pot in his hand and drank it. "Actually, your confusion all comes from your escape."

"Escape? What to escape?" Chen An explained.

"Escape from the future that you dare not face." said the young man. "If you have a heart that firms your future, you will no longer be confused."

"But I can't find my future at all." Chen An picked up the wine and took a mouthful of it and smiled bitterly.

"Everyone has his own desire, and what is the greatest desire in your heart?" said the young man.

"Am I?" Chen An pondered. "In real life, I don't have much pursuit of money, fame, wealth and luxury. I occasionally have fantasies about beautiful women. I will stand up for something I don't like to cause trouble. I don't like to cause trouble, but those who provoke me will definitely suffer. If I travel through the world of time and space, I will even follow the most enjoyable way to kill people and vent my anger, although I have been very restrained by my impulse... If I want to say that I have any wish, I hope I can return to the world I used to travel through, because some people are waiting for me, and I don't want them to wait for too long and be disappointed and sad."

"Do you know what my original wish was?" said the young man, and he stretched out his hand, spread his palm and clenched it into his fist. "Strength."

"What a simple wish." Chen Anduo.

"Because I'm afraid I won't be alive at all." The young man said lightly. "And if you don't have the power, you can't do anything and stop it. In the end, you can only let the tragedy happen before your eyes."

"What then?" Chen An said curiously.

"And... many people died because of me." said the young man. "Although I have changed their destiny again, the tragedy has already happened, and even if everything goes back, there will always be a scar in my heart."

"Do you regret it?" Chen Andu said.

"What's the use of regretting and hating?" said the young man. "I've let go of everything I should have."

"I can feel that your previous life experience must be very exciting." Chen Anduo.

"It's better to say darkness than to say it's wonderful." The young man smiled at Chen An. "Because you can never imagine how evil I will be in the eyes of people like you who have not lost their conscience."

"At least you have been redeemed now, aren't you?" Chen Andu said.

"That's right."

The young man was silent for a long time.

He suddenly stood up, took off the sword around his waist and handed it to Chen An.

"This is the long sword that has been with me for many years. The long sword is called Liefeng. Today it will be used as a reward for your mission."

"But what I am good at is a knife." Chen An took out his long sword and shook it in front of his eyes.

"Just change it."

As he said that, he gently wiped the sword, and a ray of light shone, and the sword turned into a long sword as he said.

At this time, Chen An took over the long sword and said thank you.

"After going back, enjoy your game journey in another world, and your fate is over here."

"Will we meet again in the future?" Chen An asked.

"Maybe, maybe not, but when I meet again, I may no longer be me." said the young man.

"What's the meaning?"

"Sooner or later you will understand."

After saying that, his figure began to slowly dissipate into pieces like starlight.

"Finally, I'll give you a personal advice. If you can't find your future, you might as well live by following your original intention and no longer need to suppress and escape."

When the other party completely disappeared, Chen An immediately popped up this unknown territory. When it appeared, he had returned to the hotel room where he originally stayed.

It's really amazing.

He looked at the sky outside the window and reached out and unconsciously held the sword (knife) given by the other party.

And his game level automatically jumped to level 40.
