First Player

Chapter 129 Chapter 127·BE6·Freeze

The single-player copy started, and Su Mingan was surrounded by teleported white light.

This is a side mission. As long as you complete this copy, you can obtain key information for passing the level. Like the "world chessboard" of the first world.

Su Mingan was froze by the sudden drop in temperature. His clothes were extremely thin and could not withstand the extremely low temperature.

Looking up again, he saw the white snow... and the town of Trili wrapped in ice and snow. This is supposed to be the town of Trilee in winter. There are still people walking on the street. He was standing in the alley wearing extremely thin clothes.

...so cold.

Su Mingan had never felt this cold since she was ten years old. It was like the coldness in the world was rushing through her clothes, and everything she could see was monotonous white.

——As he expected, this was a single-player copy in a small space. When he completes his task, he will return to his original place.

The setting for this small copy appears to be the town of Trilee during winter time. That is, a selected period of time in the town of Trilee.

He took a look and saw that it was almost dusk now.

The task requires "her" to see the dawn. This "she" should refer to Jasmine, and he should try it at the mayor's house.

The moment he stepped forward, he suddenly felt himself still.

【——I am Boli, a wanderer returning home from a long journey. 】

White words pop out.

[I left because I was dissatisfied with the ridiculous behavior of the town, but now I have regretted it. 】

[I returned to my hometown over the mountains and ridges. The cold and hunger made me exhausted. The only thought in my mind was to go home. 】

【My father is nearby, but I feel shy in my hometown. 】

Su Mingan watched as the white words kept popping up. This should be Bo Li's self-narration.

...It seems that he is playing the role of Bo Li?

[The town of Trilee seems to have changed little from when I left, and today happens to be a day of happy events. 】

[My father... is probably also preparing for a happy event. 】

[They still haven’t changed. 】

Bai Zi paused slowly for a moment.

Then it beat faster than before:

【...Do I really want to go back? 】

[——My return home is a young man bowing his head to the older generation. I failed, so I came back. 】

【——So, what should I do? 】

[Where should I go to change this damn fate? 】

Then, Su Mingan discovered that there were three more options below the panel.

【A. Go home and reunite with my long-lost father. 】

【B. Go to the ancestral hall to pay homage to the deceased mother. 】

[C. Go shopping on the streets, maybe you can find something useful. 】

[Note: There are risks in the options, please choose carefully, you will not be responsible if you choose to die. 】

…

A flash of realization flashed across Su Ming'an's head.

So... this is actually a choice-option game?

Jasmine is the adopted daughter of Mayor Mitchell. After running away from Boli, she appeared at the mayor's home. His first goal should be to find Jasmine, so he should go to the mayor's house first.

But years of gaming experience told him that things were not that simple.

He pointed at C.

Option C began to fade, and then he found that he could no longer control his body.

As if watching himself in action, his body walked onto the street and headed straight for a clothing store.

"Bori?" The female clerk saw him, recognized him, and immediately packed him a thick coat for free: "You're back! What great news... Go find your father quickly, he's waiting for you. It’s been a long time. God bless you…good things come in pairs today.”

He took the clothes, put them on, and walked towards the mayor's house. There are strange patterns on the clothes, which look like Sanskrit.

He reacted - if he had not chosen this option, had not put on this dress, and gone directly to the mayor's house, there might have been a death crisis. This Sanskrit seems to be a pattern that can protect the townspeople.

"Hehehe, come chase me, chase me -"

"Hey, slow down, slow down, don't fall..."

Behind me came the sounds of children playing and the worried voices of parents.

Trilli Town seems to be experiencing a happy event at this time. The town is full of joy and everyone is living in a festive atmosphere.

"Hurry, hurry, don't lose time!"

The girls making the cloth were laughing and playing, and the red cloth was eye-catching. It seemed that there was a pair that was a perfect match for their husband to get married on an auspicious day.

"The big guys at the entrance of the village got engaged to my family a few days ago."

They chatted among themselves, like little magpies.

"Ah, that's a great relationship. You two childhood sweethearts are finally together!"

"No matter where you are, there are still many days before the wedding, and I haven't even finished sewing the wedding dress in a hurry... Hey, my life is still not as good as that of the mayor's daughter..."

The needles and threads shuttled back and forth, and the girls making clothes piled up red cloth. Fresh fruit is placed on the street, seemingly free for anyone to eat.

...Su Mingan noticed that Trili Town at this time was completely different from what he had seen before.

Some of the stiff townspeople came to life again.

...This is like a normal town.

He watched himself walking through the square and saw the lively market in the square - there were no crosses to hang people, nor mahogany tables for people to banish each other, it was peaceful.

When we walked to the mayor's house, it looked the same as before. It's still the high wall that surrounds the house, and it's still the two red lanterns.

The old man on crutches was waiting at the door, as if waiting for someone.

As if he hadn't waited, the old man sighed and was about to turn around and go back, but suddenly his eyes lit up.

"..." Su Mingan walked up to him: "Father."

"...Pori."

The mayor's expression was a little complicated.

He welcomed the person in without saying much, but prepared tea for him.

The tea leaves were spinning on the water, and Su Mingan didn't see Jasmine who should be at home.

The mayor seemed to have something else to be busy with. He made a cup of tea and left in a hurry without saying a word.

Su Mingan observed the decorations in this room, but suddenly saw that the two tablets were missing.

Options suddenly appeared before him.

【——I am Boli, a wanderer returning home from a long journey. 】

[I went home and my father didn’t look very happy. 】

[He seems to be busy with something, is it really about the damn thing tonight? 】

【What should I do now? 】

[Can I... really change anything? 】

Options gradually emerged below:

【A.Follow your father. 】

【B. Search for clues at home. 】

【C. Go to the ancestral hall. 】

…

Su Mingan needs to find Jasmine.

He chose B. No matter what, there must be some clues in this room.

Option B began to fade, and then actually started to turn red.

Bloody red, extremely deep red, instantly dyeing the entire panel blood red.

Su Mingan regained control of his body.

He immediately got up, went to Jasmine's room in his memory, and opened the door——

Inside the room, blood-red marks were smeared on the wall, like a side of blood.

He felt like someone was watching him.

He seemed to hear a sound of music that shook his soul, high and loud, like a suona, and like a person's sharp cry.

The red in front of me is so bright and dazzling.

He heard a faint sigh from someone, and it seemed like a pair of arms were wrapped around him.

[If you have more than 50 strength points here, you can escape from the predicament. The judgment is in progress...]

[Judgment failed. 】

…

After the text paused for a moment, it emerged again:

【——I am Boli, a wanderer returning home from a long journey. 】

[The person she is targeting is me. 】

[I shouldn't have come to her room. 】

[She was cornered without knowing anything. 】

【I can't save her. 】

【I will live with incomplete attachment. 】

[Perhaps this is more important than anything else. 】

[——Even I haven’t come into contact with even a little bit of the truth. 】

…

[You have completed the S-level mission·Before Dawn]

[Task evaluation: B]

【……】

…

I made the wrong choice, what happens?

Su Mingan raised his hand with annihilation,

Without hesitation, he tapped his temple.
