Empty, dark, like being on the silent seabed.

This is an all too familiar death.

Su Mingan opened his eyes.

The steady heartbeat returned to his body, and everything seemed to feel real.

The moment Dong Anan cut his neck open, he decisively ordered the clone far away in the Eagle Dog Army to commit suicide to prevent the save point from freezing after his death.

I don't know why, but this death was not that painful, and it even made him feel like he was "taking a nap".

...Is it because I am becoming more and more accustomed to death, or in other words, am I numb to death?

Regarding the concept of [player death], World Games has always been extremely vague. Players can be resurrected to participate in the next instance after clearing all points and strength.

However, the rules do not intuitively indicate what the concept of [death] in the dungeon is.

People have learned that at the moment the world game starts, the players' bodies are digitized, and they are no longer their original bodies. It is more like people are playing the game in an [online world] with a [virtual body].

[Death] in the dungeon is more like a symbol of [game failure]. People's souls and consciousness are still there, and they can still be resurrected.

As for death in the world of the Lord God, it is a [real death]. People cannot be resurrected, and death is real death.

Some people have suggested that [Game Dungeon] and [Lord God World] should have a link-to-loop relationship. [Game Dungeon] is like a castle in the air built on [Lord God World]. People who die in the Dungeon will return to Main God.

The world, if you die in the world of the Lord God, you will disappear completely.

The world of the Lord God is more like the storage room of their souls.

Death in two different spaces requires different costs, and the nature of death is also completely different.

In this way, Su Ming'an's [Death] is somewhat intriguing. No matter whether he dies in the game copy or in the world of the Lord God, the rollback will be triggered.

Even if the possessed character in his dungeon dies, he will not return to the body of the main god's world, but directly trigger the death rollback, which is very strange.

Logically speaking, if he dies in the dungeon, it should not be considered truly dead. His soul and consciousness are still alive, but the character's body in the dungeon has entered a state of death.

Therefore, he speculated that his death reversal might be a kind of [judgment].

When he meets a certain "failure" condition, the rollback is triggered. Regardless of whether he dies in the copy or in the world of the Lord God, he meets the "passthrough failure" condition.

Therefore, if there is a "truth that can only be seen after the player dies" in the dungeon, it will be troublesome. After all, when you die, time will inevitably go back.

But this is destined to be a question, and he may never see the world after his death.

He blinked and moved his fingers slightly. The scene around him was bright and spacious. Beside the dining table filled with exquisite dishes, rows of robots stood motionless.

This is...the building in Central City.

The basement of this building stores Akto's ashes, the top floor is the central control room of the Dawn System, and the rest of the floors are in ruins, with no human beings surviving.

It seems that he returned from the night of the sixth day to the night of the fifth day. That is when he threatened the dawn with the "Dawn Code".

"...You want to use the Dawn Code to shut me down? Just because I proposed a personality change plan?"

A perfect face is revealed in front of you.

The god of the city-state named Dawn was standing in front of him, less than half a foot away from him. The simulated expression actually had a "pitiful" feeling, and combined with his extremely good looks, it was enough to make most people feel soft.

.

Su Ming calmed down and gradually suppressed the side effects of death.

"In short, the personality change plan is not advisable and I don't approve it." He turned around and drove towards the room: "Li Ming, don't force me to shut you down."

Dawn watched him go away quietly.

A large amount of data calculations flashed in its eyes. This was its way of "thinking" and it seemed to be measuring something.

Using passwords to bet against the Dawn System, Su Mingan has to be in disguise at all times. If he is not careful, he will be caught by it.

After entering the room, Su Mingan remained in a state of high nervousness. Liming was a voyeur, and there were absolutely cameras everywhere in this building that belonged to him.

This room seems to have been prepared for dawn for a long time, and has been cleaned spotlessly by the robot. There are medicines on the table, and the effects of the medicines are written on the notes on the bottles. In the mahogany cabinet extended by the pure white carpet, there are several items hanging

There are brand new white coats and some warm paintings and photos on the wall. The layout style of the room completely reproduces the original doctor's room in Central City.

In such a ruined building, such a room is carefully prepared... What on earth is Li Ming expecting?

Do you expect him to move in from now on?

Do you expect him to consider this place his home?

…

He didn't rest, he continued the route of the previous week and explored the building.

As he approached the bronze pocket watch buried in the ruins, he was highly focused.

He finally saw a figure flashing past in the corner.

...This is the person!

In the last episode, when he picked up a bronze pocket watch, he inexplicably obtained a dawn password. The system prompted him to meet the key figure Lu Shu, but he didn't see anyone at the time.

Now it seems that this person was hiding it so well that he even hid it from his observation ability.

At this time, Lu Shu was clearly roasting sweet potatoes in the edge area. Who is this person?

Su Mingan moved towards the figure flashing in the corner.

The cross light in the space suddenly lit up. He moved in space and approached the opponent. He stretched out his hand with all his strength and grabbed the black robe of the figure.

The figure also stretched out his hand simultaneously to protect the black robe. The two started a tug-of-war with the cloth as the core, and only heard the hissing cry of the cloth in the darkness.

The man's figure was hidden in the black mist, and his appearance could not be seen clearly. There were burn marks on the back of his exposed hands.

"Who are you?" Su Mingan shouted.

The man didn't answer, but retreated quickly. With the sound of "tearing", the black robe Su Mingan was holding was torn, and the man quickly moved away several feet as if he was moving.

Su Mingan wanted to release spatial vibrations, but the man had slipped further and further away, faster than his continuous spatial displacement.

...The other party should not be a player.

At this stage, no player can have such a fast movement speed.

Su Ming'an stared at the darkness in the distance, shifted back to the wheelchair, and picked up the pocket watch from the ruins.

The bronze pocket watch with a gold chain has a metallic luster.

"Ding dong!"

The moment he got the pocket watch, the system prompt sounded as expected.

…

[You have met the key figure·"Lu Shu"]

【Obtain the first place·Dawn Password.】

[Syllable: "Hui".]

…

Su Mingan didn't notice anything was wrong at first.

When he entered the elevator and was about to go back to his room, he stared at this system prompt and was suddenly stunned.

He remembered that in the previous episode, the number one dawn code was not the syllable "Hui", but "Moi"...

what happened.

Why, the syllables he found after rewinding... were different?

"..."

He controlled his breathing as smoothly as possible, but his heartbeat was uncontrollably getting faster and faster, like a drum beating desperately in his chest.

His chest felt like a thousand pounds of iron weighing on his chest, and he didn't want to think about a possibility.

He suddenly remembered the sixth world of White Sand Paradise. Yueyue, who had never appeared before, suddenly appeared in one cycle, and then disappeared in the next cycle.

At that time, different events happened at the same time between different weeks.

But Yueyue's sudden appearance should be an hallucination caused by his low sanity level at that time... Different Zhoumu, logically speaking, must be exactly the same.

But why, the syllables obtained after rewinding this time are different from those of the previous week...?

He closed his pocket watch, and with a soft "click" sound, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Uncontrollable fear rose, and his heart beat faster.

He doesn't want to believe in the possibility of parallel worlds.

……right.

...This should be due to some mechanism of the copy. This password appears randomly. It will become different every minute and every second, so it will be different in different weeks. This must be the case...

That's for sure...

There can be no other reason...

"Squeaky"
