Chapter 181: The Last World

V

The surrounding darkness was sticky and dense, like some kind of tangible entity, oppressing heavily from all directions.

In the hazy chaos, another person’s sense of existence became particularly vivid.

The man’s hand is cold.

The chilling touch transferred through the thin clothes and pressed against Ge Xiu’s waist arbitrarily, as if capable of swallowing his vitality it was absorbing the warmth from his body continuously.

That kind of creepy feeling could make any normal person’s hair stand on end.

It was completely different from every world before it.

—but equally familiar.

Ge Xiu said casually: “Extremely ugly.”

The combination of torn off limbs and multitalented body was just gory and had no aesthetic feeling.

A deep chuckle came from behind, the chest close to his back trembled slightly with the laughter and the vibrations spread through both of their bodies, even the darkness around them seemed to shift with that laughter:

“Don’t like it?”

The man continued to ask unhurriedly:

“Then what do you want it to look like?”

The next second, a cold kiss landed on the back of the young man’s white and warm neck, as he whispered softly and slowly, closely to his ear:

“Then… How about using that girl next time? Lin Xue, right?”

“She seems to like to cling to you very much,” the other party’s voice carried a cold smile, as if a smooth icy snake was climbing up bit by bit along the skin: “Or that Chen Jian—he seems to like you as well.”

“What,” Ge Xiu raised his eyebrows: “Do you have a problem with that?”

The hand on the side of the waist slowly tightened, the other’s voice seemed amused still, but the coldness between around them became stronger, bringing a chilling sense of oppression: “Of course.”

The cold hand slowly went down to the clothes:

“After all, you are my new wife.”

Ge Xiu was slightly startled, his eyes darkened slightly.

He suddenly thought of something.

A faint dark fire danced at the bottom of the pitch-black abyss, a strange cold glint shone in the viscous dark-filled room.

Ge Xiu abruptly stretched out his hand to press down the palm that was gradually moving downward and asked coldly:

“——what’s my name?”

Ge Xiu narrowed his eyes slowly and continued to ask word by word, with a hint of danger in his calm tone:

“What, is, my, name?”

The body close to his back was cold and solid, the darkness growing around them was cold and silent, time was passing by little by little and there was a weird tension brewing in the air.

The other party hesitated and said with difficulty:

“Wang…”

“Ouch!”

Ge Xiu’s eyes narrowed at once, he struck with his elbow hard behind his back, abruptly slamming back the remaining half of the name stuck in the other party’s throat.

Sure enough, no memory was restored.

——Clearly, the initiative to invite him came from the other, but once he accepted it, the memory was lost as soon as he entered the virtual world.

He sneered: “Get off.”

“Ha, pseudonym.” The other party’s voice was quite pleased: “You’re very defensive, dear.”

“Who’s your dear?” Ge Xiu said unceremoniously: “Don’t touch me, scram.”

The other did not leave, on the contrary he even increased the strength of their hands a little, their two figures pressed closely together. He rested his cold and sharp chin on Ge Xiu’s shoulder and said with a smile,

“Tonight is our wedding night, where do you want me to go?”

Ge Xiu: “…”

Wedding, your ass.

“So, may I have the honor to know your real name?” The man’s voice was low and ambiguous, and the cold breath brushed past Ge Xiu’s ear, bringing a small shudder.

Ge Xiu didn’t comply one bit.

He raised the corners of his lips slightly, showing a kind smile and said sarcastically,

“Aren’t I your new wife? You don’t even know my real name?”

The man: “…”

Ge Xiu raised his arm and nudged the man who was still firmly attached to his back and ordered concisely: “Let go.”

“…What if I don’t?”

“I’ll count down to five.” Ge Xiu’s body was relaxed, his voice was calm, as if he was completely unaware he was the player who could be slaughtered at will and the other was a ghost responsible for multiple deaths: “Five.”

The other party fell into silence.

He didn’t seem to have thought that Ge Xiu would be so…

bold.

“Four.”

When he said “one”, Ge Xiu felt that the cold body that was still tightly pressing against his back suddenly disappeared, the place of contact was now completely empty, leaving only the remaining cold temperature of the other’s body.

The man was gone.

The room was once again shrouded in silence and Ge Xiu glanced sideways behind him. The deep and dense darkness was empty, not only was he unable to see vague outline of the furniture, but also could not see the slightest trace of energy fluctuations.

Seems to have really left.

Ge Xiu opened his eyes, staring thoughtfully at the hidden ceiling in the darkness.

When he was in the last world, he regained the memory of being a zombie, but because there were urgent things that happened next in succession, he was unable to calm down and think over some details in his mind.

After returning to the real world, Ge Xiu finally had the opportunity to think and ponder over the clues he got in these virtual worlds, and connect them with the real world.

The Pandora Project was related to the study of mental power.

And these virtual worlds were likely to be provided and built by [his] mental power. During this process, [he] most likely did not have the ability to resist, nor the authority to operate, and couldn’t control the virtual world constructed by his own mental power.

His spiritual power did not belong to him, but was more like a deposit of minerals, used by those who put him in the jar at will.

And all he could do was make minor changes.

——For example, replace a certain character data in the virtual world with himself.

But with the passage of time, in some unknown way [he] was indeed slowly gaining more initiative and control, so that he was able to control his stay in for three consecutive worlds.

Even was able to build a new fairy tale world on the basis of the previous world.

Although it was relatively unpolished, and there were many details and loopholes that couldn’t be justified, but it undoubtedly proved—[He] was gaining control bit by bit, from the previous state of being completely controlled, as if he was a pure energy output device to gradually regaining self-awareness and free will.

Ge Xiu was able to see manifesting “energy” and over time, he began to understand how to use “mental power”.

The virtual world was composed of mental power.

The same was true for ghosts in this virtual world.

It was precisely because of this that Ge Xiu could detect the existence of special items.

Those items all had traces of energy residue attached to them, so it was easy to separate them from ordinary items.

He lowered his brows and raised his hand subconsciously to touch his neck.

The body temperature was rising little by little, but the skin there seemed to still retain that icy touch.

There were still many questions that Ge Xiu did not know the answers to.

After entering the real world, Ge Xiu could feel the spiritual threads reaching towards him, equivalent to a silent invitation.

Without even thinking about it, he chose to agree.

Ge Xiu originally thought that after entering the world, the other party would be able to recall the memories of the previous worlds, but unexpectedly, although the other party had been able to spread the spiritual threads in the real world, he was still very limited in the virtual world and could only maintain the cleared memory state.

This made the series of questions that Ge Xiu was going to ask [him] to answer useless.

And the only time [he] really remembered his real identity in the virtual world happened in that ABO world, where he discovered the difference in Ge Xiu’s identity and tried to keep him by connecting his spiritual power.

Perhaps… breaking the rules was the best way to truly restore [his] memory.

Ge Xiu yawned and closed his eyes in the darkness.

——In any case, no amount of speculation could be tested until tomorrow.

Sleepiness gradually overflowed.

Ge Xiu fell into a deep sleep little by little.

One second before his consciousness sank into the boundless darkness, he heard a soft and gentle voice in his ear, faint whisper, through the dim and vague boundary between light and dark, as if it came from the distant sky

“…Good night, my bride.”

·

The next day, Ge Xiu was woken up by the chiming of the clock downstairs,

“Dang…dang…dang…”

The bell rang a total of eight times.

Ge Xiu opened his eyes, but there was still darkness in front of him.

The windows and doors were sealed and even the outside of the window gap was pitch black, there was no difference between morning and evening.

Ge Xiu fumbled to turn on the light switch by the bed.

The sudden light above the head dispelled the darkness, illuminating the whole room brightly, and also made the bright red bed sheet and quilt cover, as well as the big red “xi” character on the bedside more clear and dazzling.

Ge Xiu rubbed his eyes and looked away.

His gaze was attracted by the crystal vase placed by the bedside.

It was half-filled with water, refracting a bright halo under the light, a lush green rose was still inserted in the bottle, the huge and bright flower was still in full bloom and there was still a little dewy droplets on the petals, that did not show the slightest trace of wilting or withering.

It was a new flower.

Ge Xiu looked away, jumped off the bed, and walked out of the room.

Some players had already left their rooms and came to the corridor.

Except for the player with injured legs, everyone slowly gathered at the stairs on the third floor.

Ge Xiu casts a quick glance at everyone—two more were missing.

It’s those who should have died in the dungeon last night.

Chen Jian looked around at the surviving players and his expression was solemn. He took a deep breath slowly and said,

“There are still two items left and the mission had been completed by more than half…”

Before he could finish his sentence, his eyes were attracted by the moving figure beside him.

Chen Jian was taken aback, and asked,

“You…what are you looking for?”

Ge Xiu raised his head and glanced at him: “This is a residential building, right?”

“Yes.”

“Then there should be a fire axe? “

Chen Jian didn’t react, he blinked a little blankly: “There should be…”

The buildings in the game dungeon were often build exactly real life buildings, so it should be there.

“Wait—what do you want to do?”

Ge Xiu turned his head and smiled at him:

“Improvise.”
