This Game Is Too Realistic

Noble people will always have nobility worthy of them, and noble people will not escape the end of noble things.

As if realizing that his death was doomed, Guixu, who had peed enough, finally couldn't bear the final "humiliation" and let out a hysterical roar at the Union Building that was retreating away.

"Extremely stupid! Give up the world of civilized people to the savages in the wasteland!!! You are simply unworthy of being residents of the shelter! You have betrayed the Awami League! You have betrayed the people who built the shelter!! Wait, wait and see, you There will be no good fruit to eat!!”

The twisted face was covered with tears and snot.

That hysterical roar and resentment didn't look like a human being, let alone a savage.

The soldier holding his shoulders gave him a disgusted look. He didn't want his clothes to be stained by the disgusting liquid, but he had to hold him tightly to prevent him from committing suicide.

For a person with no hope of survival, this is not impossible.

Although this guy may not have that kind of courage.

"Savages in the wasteland, hehe... if you let those who build the shelter know that the people who live in the shelter will call their children this way, do you think they will build the shelter again?"

"Who is the betrayer? Who betrayed whom? I still don't know until death is imminent."

Staring at those pupils that were half timid and half hysterical, the soldier holding his shoulders said fiercely.

"When you die, you'd better open your eyes wide and take a good look at who is living in retribution and who is not eating the good fruit!"

…

The trial of Guixu will be held together with the trial of the senior officials of the Enlightenment Society. In addition, it will also include the trial of the accomplices of the Enlightenment Society.

The Adhesion Community will establish a specialized court and investigation agency to account for the various crimes it has committed and impose sentences based on evidence.

The sun gradually set. After finishing the work, Chu Guang put the documents aside as usual, opened the door and walked out of the office on time, got on the long-awaited special car downstairs of the building, and returned to the shelter in the south of Dawn City.

Usually at this time, he would choose to close his eyes and rest for a while, but today he suddenly looked at the scenery outside the window on a whim, and even asked the driver to take a long detour to the city center to take a look.

The city center of Shuguang City has always been to the north of the Alliance Building, and is still quite far away from Linghu Wetland Park in the south.

With the development and expansion of the new urban area to the east, the city center has gradually developed into the "former highway town site".

The area that was once watered with blood by the Alliance's regiments has now become a row upon row of high-rise buildings and a square filled with people.

Chu Guang was in a trance for a while. It wasn't until the reflection of the row of buildings disappeared from the car window that he suddenly came back to his senses and said with a smile to Lu Bei, who was sitting in the passenger seat with him.

"The changes here are quite big. Sometimes when you look at it at first glance, it feels like you are in another world."

Lu Bei had been conscientiously staring at the road ahead and both sides of the street. Lu Bei did not carefully appreciate the scenery outside the car window. After being stunned for a moment, he then said with a smile.

"The development here is indeed very fast...but the urban area just now has actually been built for some time."

"Really?" Chu Guang laughed and said with emotion, "Maybe it's because I don't wander around often. You can take me around in two days."

"Yes!" Lu Bei nodded seriously, with a look on his face that promised to complete the task.

Seeing the young man's high regard, Chu Guang said with a smile in a gentle tone.

"It's just a casual stroll, so there's no need to be so nervous... Also, don't disturb others."

Lu Bei, who was just generally nervous at first, became even more nervous when he heard these words...

…

At the entrance of the shelter, there is an endless stream of players in the square. Among them are newcomers who have just entered the game and have come here to report, and some are old players who have just been alive.

The snack street in the north is even more lively with people coming and going. There are traveling merchants exchanging information about the situation in various places, and there are also players sharing their unlucky death three days ago.

Did not return to the shelter immediately.

Chu Guang still went to his usual ramen stall. After sitting down, he ordered an extra large bowl. He watched the noisy little players eating and ate quietly until the sun completely set.

It always felt like the manager was having something on his mind, and Lu Bei, who was sitting opposite, was too embarrassed to ask, so he could only wait quietly.

Unfortunately, Chu Guang didn't say what was on his mind. He just counted out the change and put it on the table as usual. He smiled and exchanged greetings with the sweaty boss who was making ramen noodles and left.

To be honest, Chu Guang was also a little confused about his mentality at the moment.

It was clear that the puzzle he had always dreamed of solving was right in front of him, but he was not at all anxious to uncover the hidden answer. Instead, he longed for time to pass slower.

However, he also knew that he could never face memories beyond that time.

"Just send me here, I plan to go back."

"yes."

Looking at Chu Guang walking towards the shelter, Lu Bei nodded slightly, but did not leave.

Looking at the retreating figure, he hesitated for a moment and finally spoke.

"gentlemen."

Chu Guang stopped and looked back. Seeing the serious expression on the young man's face, he couldn't help but smile.

"What's matter?"

Lu Bei nodded and said seriously.

"I have no father and no other relatives. It was you who taught me writing, arithmetic... and a lot of knowledge that I don't know. Maybe you will find it offensive... but I have always regarded you as my father."

"No offense, but some accidents are true," Chu Guang coughed slightly and said with a smile, "Why are you suddenly saying this?"

"It's nothing..." Lu Bei shook his head slightly and continued in a serious tone, "I just want to tell you that you will always be the manager in my mind. And... I believe it's not just me, but many people. That’s what I thought.”

There was no trace of falsehood on that sincere face, and what he said was truly from the bottom of his heart.

After putting away his joking tone, Chu Guang also showed a serious expression on his face and said solemnly.

"I understand, thank you."

After saying that, a warm smile bloomed on his face again, he walked back to Lu Bei and patted the young man on the shoulder.

"I'm just going home, don't act like I'm going somewhere far away."

"Remember to pick me up at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning and take me to Shuguang City."

"Yes!" Lu Bei stood up excitedly and gave a military salute, but this time he was not as nervous as before.

Chu Guang smiled and waved his hand, telling him not to wait here, and then disappeared into the crowd in the square, returning to the place where it all started...

…

Leaving the players who were trying to get stuck behind his butt in the elevator, Chu Guang ordered Xiao Qi to send them back to the B1 floor, and then stepped into the dusty B5 floor alone.

The elevator door faces a wide circular space.

The layout here is very similar to the b2 and b3 floors. The only difference is that there is no living area and hundreds of single-person dormitories distributed around the circular corridor.

This is actually a bit like the Citizen Reception Hall of the Alliance Building, presumably the administrative function area of ​​Vault 404.

not only that.

Different from the spotless appearance of other floors when they were first opened, the alloy floor here is covered with a very thick layer of ash, and no matter how soft the heel is, it will inevitably make a squeaking sound.

It can be seen that no one has been here for a long time, so that there is no need to clean it.

Chu Guang stood there and glanced at his surroundings, then walked up to the corridor facing the elevator.

On floors b2 and b3, this corridor at the same location connects the warehouse area.

But it's different here. As expected, it should be the manager's office.

Chu Guang put his hand on the door handle and quickly passed the iris and face recognition verification.

With a soft "click" sound, the alloy door that had been sealed in dust for two centuries was finally released, revealing an inconspicuous part of those unknown years.

And at the moment the door opened, a low and distant sound also passed through the door at the same time, blowing towards him like a distant wind chime.

"You came."

Chu Guang raised his eyebrows.

"You want to say I shouldn't have come?"

Hearing this cold joke that enlivened the atmosphere, dry laughter drifted from the front.

"Hahaha...that's not the case."

While the two were making jokes, Chu Guang glanced at the room in front of him.

It was a circular room.

The furnishings inside are very simple, even crude, with only a wide curved screen and a chair facing the screen.

There seemed to be someone sitting on that chair.

But the man's back was facing Chu Guang, so he couldn't see the face clearly, let alone whether the man was still alive.

As for the hoarse and deep voice, it came from the curved screen directly opposite.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time."

A pair of eyes stared at him from nowhere, as if looking at his own child or looking at himself in the mirror.

Chu Guang had experienced the feeling of déjà vu once, when he was communicating with observers.

But what is intriguing is that what he read from the two eyes were completely different things.

Looking at the flickering fluorescent screen, Chu Guang asked in a calm voice.

"Are you the 'Professor'?"

To his surprise, the voice did not make any cover-up, but admitted it easily.

"Yes, I didn't expect to still hear this name after so many years... Actually, I didn't call it this name at first, but people often called me that, so over time I called it this name."

Chu Guang could hear a hint of nostalgia in that voice, like a sadness about the right and wrong of things and people.

He could understand this feeling.

Although I have just begun to understand.

"I always hear people say that you created the era of prosperity."

A blurry figure appeared on the curved screen hanging on the wall.

He couldn't see the man's face clearly, but he thought he must be quite handsome, although it was still a bit inferior to him.

The man looked at him and nodded, then shook his head slightly and said in a meaningful tone.

"It's actually inaccurate to say that. I'm just a spark plug at most, and what really burns is the gasoline in the tank. Even without me, people in this world will eventually usher in their own era of prosperity, and my existence It just moved this day forward... Of course, that is another story in another world."

Chu Guang raised his eyebrows slightly.

really--

Just as he guessed!

This guy, who is respectfully called professor by the three doctors of Principle, Method, and Conclusion, has already been exposed to the mystery of the void, and this is the prerequisite for his ability to use the "morphogenesis field" technology on a large scale.

"Do you know about the other world?" Chu Guangming asked knowingly.

"Of course," the man on the screen seemed to smile softly and continued in a gentle tone, "Actually, you already know the answer, don't you? That soap bubble theory... I guess you must have seen the observation I just don’t know if he has ever mentioned the ‘Heart of the Galaxy’ to you.”

Chu Guang shook his head.

"It didn't mention the Heart of the Galaxy, it only mentioned Amakura Five... Speaking of which, what is that thing?"

As if recalling the distant past, the figure floating in the void shook gently for a while, and after a long time, he gave an ambiguous answer.

"It's nothing, it's just a way to become a boundary breaker. If the guy peeking around the screen doesn't mention it, either it doesn't exist in this universe, or the time hasn't come yet... You don't need to care."

It's okay not to care.

How the hell could you not care? !

Suppressing the curiosity in his heart, Chu Guang calmed down and continued.

"In my impression, the observer mentioned you... Although he did not say who that person was, my intuition tells me that that person is you."

The man on the screen suddenly became interested and asked curiously.

"Really? What did he say?"

Recalling the exchange that day, Chu Guang spoke slowly.

"He said that you are part of the reason why the world is like this."

As if he was not satisfied with this evaluation, the vague figure laughed and replied mockingly.

"That guy must not have told you that the cause and effect it saw is equivalent to the flapping wings of a butterfly and the hurricane in the Pacific Ocean. There may indeed be a certain relationship between the two, but it is definitely not a direct relationship... There may be a Pacific Ocean between them."

"What it wants to say is that the Wasteland Era is the ultimate fate of the Prosperity Era, so I, who laid the foundation for the Prosperity Era, cannot be blamed. But don't you think this logic is strange? You would blame a person for dying. Shouldn’t the parents have given birth to him?”

"This is indeed a bit far-fetched." Chu Guang nodded and gave him a strange look, "You seem to be familiar with each other?"

"So be it."

The man on the screen seemed to be lost in memories and spoke slowly after a long time.

"A long time ago...it gave me a 'system'."

Chu Guang said with a strange expression.

"System? Like the shelter system you gave me?"

The professor standing on the screen shook his head.

"No, the two are completely different things. The one I gave you is at most a novice tutorial, but what it gave me was a real 'system' that could improve my mental level and provide me with guidance when I hit a bottleneck in my research. The kind that inspires.”

Chu Guang: "It sounds a bit powerful."

"It's pretty powerful, but...it's just like that. The observer is not omniscient and omnipotent. The information it can convey to us is limited to what we already know or are about to know. Even when I no longer need it, it has nothing but There is nothing I can do other than being furious."

The professor smiled and continued in a gentle tone, "Actually, just like the novice tutorial I gave you, once you are familiar with the operating procedures of the shelter, you will no longer need the guidance of that thing. In fact, there are no regulations for that thing. If you follow the rules, you can do better."

"The same is true for me. At first, I relied on the guidance of the system. But as my research continued, I no longer needed the help of that thing, and in the end I no longer relied on it. , but it wants something from me."

In other words, the professor had been conducting research with the assistance of observers for a long time.

However, the cooperation was suspended due to differences between the two parties on something.

The time point of this divergence is probably in the early stage of the Prosperity Era, and most likely even before entering the Prosperity Era.

Chu Guang tried to analyze Bo from the perspective of motivation.

Observers obviously hope that human civilization will play a certain role in the distant future, so they actively interfere or accelerate the process of human civilization at the expense of humankind's own potential.

However, its intervention is limited to the point of contact.

It even doesn’t want human civilization to move too fast. It’s best to just go a little faster and then just step into the star sea at the right time.

However, perhaps due to the interference of the indescribable fog, or perhaps due to human beings' own rebellion, curiosity, and desire or greed for the material world, variables have appeared in its plan, so that it should have been running on the established track. The marble deviated from its original trajectory.

At least, its deduction results have shifted in this universe or world line.

The "professor" who was admired by thousands of people did not follow the system's guidance on a certain critical matter, but instead stepped on the accelerator to the ground.

An era of unlimited prosperity was born.

The People's Federation has created a utopia of unlimited prosperity using only the resources of one galaxy.

However, in contrast, this gravity-defying “carnival” also paved the way for the collapse of paradise.

Observers had already calculated the outcome of this universe dozens of thousands of years before human civilization entered a prosperous era.

And this is also the reason why it finally gave up on this universe.

As for the later "It smells so good" and "I didn't expect you to be alive", that's another story.

It really didn't expect that humans who fell from heaven into the abyss could still stand up, let alone that the morphogenetic field could be used in this way, and that a young civilization with more cohesion than the People's Federation was actually born in this ruins.

The professor is right.

Observers are indeed not omnipotent.

If it could predict everything, it wouldn't be led by the "indescribable fog" like a dog for a walk, and there would be no need to peek around the screen.

Chu Guang nodded thoughtfully and continued to ask tentatively.

"The Observer mentioned to me that it expected you to become a 'boundary breaker', but you seem to-"

"No need to guess."

The professor standing on the screen interrupted his temptation and answered affirmatively in a complicated tone.

"I don't know what you would choose, but at that time I... did give up."
