【You "escaped". 】
Holding the cone of light tightly in one hand, the Fool, looking a little lonely, subconsciously reached out to grab it, but it only accelerated the complete dissipation of the light spot.
No matter from which sense, human beings' outstretched hands are probably unable to grasp "light".
Even hands made of soul steel won't work.
This is a truth he understood a long time ago.
When all the light spots floating in the air disappeared without a trace, the Fool curled up his fingertips, withdrew his hand that was suspended in mid-air, lowered his head, and admired the cone of memory light again.
The beautiful sunset became the best natural lighting designer. The golden glow seemed to have softened the emerald green eyes that had been cold for five hundred years.
He lowered his eyelids and whispered softly:
"Yes, it is indeed a--a nice gift."
Fate is so unpredictable and wonderful. A person who is "nostalgic" to the point of paranoia and morbidity actually received a past, a piece of old time that was intercepted.
This is really...
[In the last moments of this world, the Fool stared closely at the cone of memory light in his hand, his eyes never shifting even for a moment.]
[Until a distortion like "erasing the world" enveloped him, and he finally disappeared.]
【From now on, there is no trace of "outsiders" in this world. 】
[Under the whole world, in the four seas, only the various changes and golden achievements brought by the outsiders remain. ]
[As for the subsequent developments, that is the story of the people living in this world. ]
[How to compose and how to practice are all up to them. ]
[Simulation ends. 】
[This simulation has no ending or follow-up, or rather, every tomorrow ahead is an ending and a follow-up. ]
-----------------
Pure white space.
After a long absence, Lu Mian returned to this pure white space that he had used to save his life during the first simulation. He felt a little confused.
He did not immediately look at the simulation records and rewards, but scratched his head and asked softly:
"System, how did we end up in this space again? Normally, since I'm not in critical condition, can't I just go back to the Eigenworld and check the records and rewards?"
“Well, this is a simulation judgment issue, because Xilin was judged to have started the simulation with you, the host.
Therefore, compared to Maya and Bella who were directly teleported to the Eigenworld by the Grimoire, it would be a bit more troublesome." The system answered fluently.
Lu Mian nodded, "So what does this 'trouble' mean?"
“It’s really hard to explain in detail, but to put it simply, Xilin’s body has returned to the state it was in before the simulation began.
"If the simulation ends normally, she should lie next to you and stare at you with Kiana's body. If that happens, you probably won't have time to look at the simulation records and rewards."
The most urgent thing is to think about how to coax the child who has suddenly lost his body and is likely to have a tantrum.
Lu Mian, who almost understood what was said, pondered for a moment, then suddenly laughed, and it looked like he was about to use the Flame Fist.
This is a classic part of coaxing children.
After laughing to himself for a while, he suddenly seemed to remember something and asked:
"By the way, how are Meiya and Bella now?"
"Their current state is like taking a taxi. Once you, the host, return to the original world and snap your fingers, the magic book will completely connect the space-time tunnel between the two worlds and release them."
"I see." Lu Mian nodded slightly, as if thinking about something.
He felt that this description was not like taking a taxi, but more like a time machine of a "magic blue fat man" in his childhood.
After confirming with the system that his family was fine, Lu Mian checked the simulation records and rewards while thinking about what to say to Xilin, who would probably cry and make a fuss after losing her body.
Well, because the simulation was ended early, there was no ending or follow-up video and text description for this simulation.
Naturally, you don't need to worry too much about simulation records.
What is important is the talent brought by this simulation and the series of magical abilities of the magic cat talent.
First, the talent:
[(Talent) Magic Cat: By chance, you became a mature and handsome magic cat. You are born with magical powers and are the most magical cat in the world.]
[(Talent) Magical Girl Radar: With your talent, you can easily find a suitable magical girl as your partner. The current target is: Miracle☆Magical Girl.]
After some micro-manipulation by the system, the abstract talent that could turn a good child into a rebellious one was wiped out.
Wuhu has never had such a wonderful start!
The second is the magical cat's series of magical abilities:
Let’s not talk about the magic of slacking off, the idle mode that can increase all attributes of your partner, and the shield function that have already been reflected in the simulation.
Let’s first talk about the grimoire that is more magical than all of these combined.
With this treasure, not to mention being able to travel freely throughout the world, you can also easily travel back and forth between several worlds, greatly refreshing the insignificant sense of existence of the identity of "travelers".
Wuhu has never had such a wonderful start!
Lu Mian smiled as he looked at the excellent benefits brought by ending the simulation early.
But suddenly I found a few words and a few inconspicuous rewards squeezed in the corner.
【It ended the world's long period of division and frequent wars, sowed the seeds of hope on the earth and even planted rice in the sea, and truly made it possible for poor people around the world to have food to eat and clothes to wear.】
[After that, the Honkai energy was gathered in the hands of humans, ending the history of being plagued by Honkai. ]
[Poems and songs cannot sing of your great achievements; story books cannot describe your majestic figure; legends and epics cannot portray your vivid image. ]
[It’s a pity that there is no reward. ]
[Points issued: 521.]
[A reward of one pendant will be given.]
[A reward of one spirit weapon will be given.]
Looking at the paragraphs in front of him that looked more like praise than a summary, and the slightly delicate and soft handwriting, Lu Mian fell into deep thought.
Even though he caught a glimpse of the reward that made him want to complain, he ignored it and asked casually:
"System, didn't you say there were no system points and rewards? Then what's going on with these system points and rewards now?"
“There are still rewards, but they are few and certainly not as useful as treasures like the Void Ten Thousand Treasures.
"As for system points, there are indeed none, but it's quite disappointing to think that the host spent so much time simulating and could only get an 'egg'.
"So, this system paid a little out of its own pocket, hehe." At the end of the explanation, the system couldn't help but feel a little proud and chuckled twice.
Lu Mian didn't say anything, but he couldn't help but slightly curl the corners of his mouth as if he couldn't hide what he was saying.
In this way, the system evaluation, which is full of subjective emotions and personal style, can be explained clearly.
To be honest, this kind of unintentional concern from people around me makes people feel happy.
With an indescribable joy in his heart, Lu Mian began to look at the system rewards about which he had just discovered some clues.
[Silver Cross Pendant (The holder can resist the cold and darkness in the environment to a certain extent)]
[The mirrored cross pendant is made of silver and forged and engraved by the family. It looks very delicate, with the names of the family members on it, which contains the sincere emotions of the family members and can drive away the cold and darkness. ]
Although it is not as functional as a snow globe, this gift has the same practical significance as a snow globe.
However, this is obviously not the point.
The important thing is...
[Grim Reaper (Grim Reaper bound to the Grim Reaper, can assist the Grim Reaper in completing the search task better, selected target: Benares)]
[It is too troublesome to search for a magic book that is only slightly spiritual. There should be a corresponding spirit, right? Coincidentally, there is such a soul body next to you. ]
Weapon spirit? The weapon spirit of the magic book?
This really confused Lu Mian.
In the past, he had only heard of people who hid weapon spirits in mouse peripherals, but this magic weapon spirit was the first time he had seen it.
Moreover, isn’t the name of the target chosen by this spirit weapon a little too familiar?
Benares? Beberon!
In order to prevent embarrassing misunderstandings due to having the same name, Lu Mian also carefully examined the specific situation of the weapon spirit.
In an instant, the blue-haired girl, pure white and naked, came into his sight.
Well - I can't say that she is exactly the same as Bella, but I can say that there is not even the slightest difference.
Judging from intuition and sensory judgment, this Beibeilong may be much more stupid than Bella?
Okay, that's good.
At least in terms of emotions, Xilin was given the full support.
After the rebirth, my mother survived, my friend was rescued, and I had a new "cat elder". Even my only pet and concern from my previous life came back in this way...
Where can you find such a good thing?
Anyway, Lu Mian was sincerely happy for Xilin.
After reading all the information about the simulation and counting the system points and various rewards obtained from the simulation, Lu Mian left the pure white space.
In the blink of an eye, the pure white in the sight disappeared without a trace, and finally only the inherent world outside the pure white space remained.
Time began to flow again.
Lu Mian leaned against the head of the bed with his head in his hands, looking out the window at the familiar yet unfamiliar morning light. For a moment, he felt dazed and absent-minded.
In just the blink of an eye, more than ten years had passed and he had grown more than ten years older.
This is really amazing.
Just as Lu Mian was sighing inexplicably, "Kiana" who was lying beside him moved slightly.
Xilin, who had been in a dazed, half-asleep, half-awake state since entering the magic book and leaving the simulated world, slowly opened her eyes.
The girl rubbed her eyes, and looked at the man sitting beside her on the bed with her sleepy golden-orange eyes. For no reason, she felt a sense of "reassurance".
A playful yet relaxed smile like a child appeared on her lips. She was about to say something, but suddenly her eyes narrowed slightly.
Just because a few strands of soft white hair lay quietly between the two people on the bed, it looked so abrupt and eye-catching.
White hair? Whose?
With such doubts in mind, Xilin stretched out her numb index finger and gently picked up the strands of white hair.
As she moved, she felt an extremely real touch rushing from the hair all the way into her forehead.
Oh, it's her hair.
One second, two seconds, three seconds...
Ok?
Three full seconds passed before the dazed Xilin suddenly woke up and realized that something was wrong.
This, this is not right! ?
Where did her long purple hair go that was so beautiful that the bad cat elders often wanted to use it as a pillow? ? ? ! ! !
Chapter 13 Reunion (Two in One)
It was a beautiful day, the birds were singing, the flowers were blooming, and Xilin found that she had fewer gray hairs.
Although she is no longer a girl in age, she is still roughly considered a girl because of the eternal youth brought by her magical girl identity.
Similarly, she probably did have premature graying of hair.
The drowsiness from waking up from a dream gradually faded away, and after waking up, Xilin almost understood what had changed.
She, who usually regretted that she could "compete with immortals", subconsciously pinched the two lumps of soft flesh on her chest that were cushioned under the bed.
Feeling the amazing softness and wonderful elasticity in her palms, she felt more and more "regretful" about herself and discovered the problem with her current body.
