"...Some people think that I am a devil who abducted their children and made them devote themselves to cruel copies."

"But they have never been anyone's appendage. Everyone should have the opportunity to decide their own destiny. Regardless of status or age."

"——Because of death and madness, no one will be spared just because they are children. The world of the Lord God is becoming more and more chaotic, suicide attacks are frequent, and crazy people are flooding in the square... Many children are dying just because they have no defense ability.

I got caught up in it and lost my life.”

Noel spoke softly.

It was as if he was expressing his views, and also as if he was comforting himself.

Su Ming'an saw that there were many children in the New World Guild. They generally carried weapons on their backs and had resolute expressions. They had shouldered everything at a young age, even though they had not yet established a complete outlook on life.

"We can prevent children from shooting - but we cannot prevent them from holding guns..." Su Mingan said.

"...Yes, that's right." Noel said.

"I will not blame you for this." Su Mingan said: "I will not force anyone because of my moral values. People's values ​​​​and worldview change with the world itself. Today's world is different, and we should not use the previous standards.

Kidnap you."

Noel was silent for a while.

After a while, he said:

"You always have this neutral attitude."

"Just think that I am so selfish that I like to keep to myself." Su Mingan said.

"...In the ninth world, who are our three teammates?" Noel suddenly asked.

"Are you still ready to end?" Su Mingan looked at him.

Noel nodded.

"As for teammates... I prefer Lu, Luna and Yamada Machichi." Su Mingan thought for a while.

He did not enter the Peak Alliance. After all, Noel himself had a foundation in the New World Guild and was not suitable to join an alliance composed entirely of single players.

Apart from himself and Lu Shu, if he had to choose three teammates from the other seven seats, he would first exclude Alger and Eleven, whom he didn't know.

Luna and Yamada Machichi are acquaintances who have worked together. Luna fought side by side with him in the Seventh World. She is reliable and has a temperament as strong and sincere as a female knight. Yamada Machichi is even more of a person who repays kindness.

He is a man who gave up victory in both the Fourth World and the Eighth World to achieve his goals. Although his personality is a bit depressive, he can be seen to be a good person.

... Mainly because of Yamada's skill in the Eighth World: "If you see a lighthouse, why don't you worship it!" He was really impressed.

As for Lu, this imaginative emperor who almost thinks of Su Ming'an as an all-knowing god, Su Ming'an doesn't know how to evaluate him. But Lu is indeed a hexagonal warrior. Not only is his strength at the level of a top player, but his emotional intelligence can also connect with the audience.

They all work together to have high emotional intelligence, and their popularity is even higher than that of Lu Shu and others. Their IQ is probably not low, as can be seen from the analysis in the Silver Star copy. If you take them on the road, it will definitely be helpful to pass the level.

In this way, Su Ming'an's small team consists of Lu Shu, Nuoer, Lu, Yamada Machichi, and Luna.

As for Isabella and Beiwang, the scientist Isabella is indeed very popular, but he still doesn’t understand her temperament after all. Beiwang is a player who has completed all levels perfectly so far, so he definitely can’t compete with Su Mingan.

A parallel copy.

——Su Mingan’s criteria for choosing teammates, if you look at it this way, it’s actually very simple.

Character.

It’s nothing more than character and moral standards.

He does not lack fighting power, nor does he lack the strength to fight alongside him. What he needs is not sharp knives and swords, but a partner who can support him, a companion who can always stand by his side.

He needs a torch.

Someone like Lu Shu, someone like Yamada Machichi, someone who can be trusted, someone who can hand over everything to him, someone who can abandon everything to support him, such a warm, stable, unquenchable torch.

Just like the eighth world, even if we have a partner with a combat power of 2000, can we still defeat the Tentacle God with a combat power of at least 4000?

...It's just that he needs a partner to pull him out of his hallucination.

As long as he can maintain his stability, he believes he can make it to the end.

After talking to Noel about the preparations for the Ninth World, Su Mingan left the New World Guild and headed to Baicheng.

His ruler skill allows him to choose a dungeon that he has successfully cleared before to return to during his rest period. He currently has the ability to return to City

The power of world playa.

As for the third world Mingxi Middle School and the sixth world Baisha Paradise, both ended in the collapse of the entire world, so there is no way to return.

The fourth world, Trilli Town, and the eighth world, Dome, belong to the world of peak competition. For some unknown reason, the world of peak competition cannot return. This is information that has been known before.

...So he and Siboer really said goodbye forever.

However, considering the future game situation in the world, they may be able to meet again once the skills of those in power are upgraded.

He lowered his head and looked at the back of his hand.

On it are six white patterns of perfect clearance, like a blooming flower.

The fourth world and the eighth world are both peak competitive worlds and are not included in the calculation of perfect clearance, nor do they obtain the so-called "source of the world".

Thinking of the shadow as a world game skill, it can replace the NPCs in the dome and patrol the dome. There are also those small copies of Silver Star that are generated out of thin air and are not like the small copies of Silver Star that outsiders can build. The eighth world... seems to combine quite a lot.

The factors of [World Game Organizer].

Perfect passes in the world of peak competition are not counted in the total number of perfect passes. This is a very strange rule.

The original Trilee Town also had quite a lot of [World Game] elements, such as the identity of prophet and werewolf, which was obviously not something that Trilee Town itself had.

...They are more like the world itself, a combination with the world game. Rather than like a pure, self-growing world.

He put down the back of his hand and saw the city in front of him with its mechanical doors slowly opening.

Nolia stood on the covered bridge, with clearly visible mechanical pieces on her body.

The last time he came here, Su Mingan learned how to use mechanical bombs. Now that the person in charge has upgraded to level four, he can learn more.

"Welcome back, hero of Baicheng." Nolia said: "Are you here this time to learn [Type II Stabilizer]?"

Su Mingan once visited Baicheng at the end of the Sixth World. Nolia told him that Baicheng has a mental stabilizer that can physically block chaos and fear, and has a good effect on stabilizing the mental state.

Although it is still not a skill that directly heals the mind, it is in the category of drugs, but it should be more useful than tricyclic antidepressants, paroxetine tablets, etc. After all, Baicheng's technological level is far higher than that of humans on Zhai Star.

"The person who taught me couldn't be Teacher Snell." Su Mingan's scalp went numb when he thought of the painful learning experience last time and the chemical element formulas that filled the room.

However, things backfired.

He managed to see Snell, who was waiting for him with a smile.

The amiable appearance of the professor in the white coat gradually became a little scary in his eyes.

...You have only one teacher, right?

He still remembered the last time he was scolded by Snell, "Why can't you do three three-digit mental arithmetic in five seconds?" It was extremely humiliating.

When walking across the covered bridge, Su Mingan couldn't help but take another look at the giant sculpture in the center of Baicheng.

[Hero of White City, Outsider Traveler Su Mingan]

[Baicheng, 358th year of the 9th year of the old calendar - 1st day of the 1st year of the new calendar]

Under the sculpture, there are several bouquets of blooming chrysanthemums.

...It seems that in many dungeon worlds, in people's minds, he is the kind of character who retires and dies after achieving success.

…

"Ding dong!"

[You are about to start learning the special skills of the person in power: (Type II mental stabilizer production technology)

Note: You have opened up a special skill grid: Power Holder (current number of grids: 2/2. By advancing as a Power Holder, you can further increase the number of skill grids and acquire additional skills.)

…

[Production technology of type II mental stabilizer]

Learning conditions: Baicheng Laboratory site, Baicheng ruler’s permission, sufficient resource supply, fourth-level leader.

Note: This technology can only be mastered by those in power and cannot be taught to others.】

"Come on." Snell smiled at him: "I will at least teach you how to balance chemical equations."

Su Mingan was infected by his smile and couldn't help but take half a step back.

…

"Huh...huh..."

Yu Ruohe woke up from the nightmare, sat up, and gasped for air.

Cold sweat slid down her forehead and soaked her pajamas.

In the room with no light, her face was immersed in shadows, and only the suppressed sound of panting like a beast could be heard. She breathed desperately, sucking in the fresh air, like a drowning person who had just climbed out of the sea.
