Right and Wrong
Qin Yiguan turned his head slightly.
To everyone's surprise, Dr. Jiao Shensan in this world hadn't fallen to his death. He was clinging tightly to the pillar, staring in horror at everything below.
"I think I understand why this world exists."
"And what is its underlying principle?"
Qin Yiguan suddenly spoke.
At this moment, Jiao Shensan was clearly in a state of shock, trembling as he exclaimed, "Unbelievable, unbelievable! This world is truly unreal! Otherwise, how could there be such monsters, such guardians!"
"Dr. Jiao Shensan, you should be able to see all of this, right?"
Qin Yiguan suddenly spoke.
The old man, who was clinging to the pillar, suddenly turned around. "Yes, I've been watching all of this."
Qin Yiguan shook his head. "I wasn't talking to you; I was talking to the person 'outside'."
"Outside?"
Jiao Shensan confused. "What do you mean, 'outside'?"
But Qin Yiguan's expression suddenly became much more relieved, as if he had unloaded all kinds of burdens. He stepped over the broken glass window and walked step by step to the edge of the building.
The wind picked up, making the boy's clothes flutter loudly.
He suddenly lifted one foot, dangling it above the 14th floor of the building, with a deep abyss below that could shatter a person to pieces.
Jiao Shensan's expression changed drastically. "Yiguan, what are you trying to do?!"
"I want to commit suicide."
Qin Yiguan spoke calmly.
"Calm down!"
"The truth of the matter hasn't been clarified yet, don't be so foolish!"
Jiao Shensan disregarded his own safety, released the pillar he was clinging to, and ran towards Qin Yiguan.
"I've figured it out."
Qin Yiguan's body lurched forward, and he plummeted from the tall building!
"No!"
Jiao Shensan arrived a step too late, clinging to the edge of the building, but could only reach out and grasp at the air.
"Guardian!"
"Guardian!"
A desolate roar echoed between heaven and earth.
Beneath Qin Yiguan's body, the ground suddenly rose, inch by inch, continuously reducing the distance between Qin Yiguan and the ground.
"Guardian."
Thank you for all your hard work over the years.
"In your world, everything you do is right."
"But in reality, everything you did was wrong."
Qin Yiguan suddenly raised his hand, holding a shard of glass that he had hidden earlier. In the instant before it hit the ground, he did not hesitate and slashed it at his own neck, blood splattering everywhere!
Boom!
Qin Yiguan's body fell to the ground.
But in his mind, he was falling from a dark world, breaking through layer after layer of restrictions.
He felt like a soul, but at the last moment, he fell back into his body.
He slowly opened his eyes.
The viewpoint is of a pristine white room.
before.
Jiao Shensan, wearing a white lab coat, along with Song Miao and a group of researchers, looked at him with tears in their eyes.
"My Yiguan, I'm very sorry."
"As the first volunteer to participate in Brain-Computer Interface experiment, you have placed a tremendous trust in us."
Unfortunately, the program started lagging and crashing as soon as you entered it.
"You were connected to Brain-Computer Interface for 18 seconds, but actually lived in the virtual world for 18 years."
Jiao Shensan, Song Miao, and a group of researchers bowed at a 90-degree angle.
"I know."
Qin Yiguan touched the top of his head and unplugged the power cord from the Brain-Computer Interface. "Before entering the virtual world, you customized a program for me called ' Guardian.' Its mission is to protect me from harm in the virtual world."
"Then the program stalled for 18 years, and I was imprisoned in it for 18 years, and the Guardian protected me for 18 years."
Qin Yiguan stretched his stiff neck, "But subconsciously I've realized that place isn't a real world, and it's been trying everything to help me escape."
"And the only way to escape is through death."
"Only by dying can my consciousness break free, that is, return to reality."
Jiao Shensan trembled violently, "Yes, we're outside, and we can clearly see everything in the simulated world."
Song Miao also exclaimed excitedly, "Your willpower is truly remarkable; you actually managed to create a ' Victim '!"
Jiao Shensan nodded repeatedly, "Your 'self-redemption' in the virtual world was truly remarkable. Your subjective consciousness clearly analyzed everything, and in that world, you committed an extremely illogical 'suicide'."
Song Miao added, "It was because of this action that you successfully escaped from the 'world of code'!"
Qin Yiguan smiled wryly, "So that means this is still 2023, still the first Brain-Computer Interface research center, and you're still the researchers here?"
Everyone nodded in unison.
Unlike his experience in the virtual world, Qin Yiguan's return this time did not cause him to suffer from mental health issues due to disbelief.
"Anyway."
With Jiao Shensan stepped forward and embraced Qin Yiguan tightly. "Your return to the real world is the most joyful thing ever!"
Don't be too happy yet.
Qin Yiguan chuckled, "Everything here, including you all, is still just a piece of code."
Jiao Shensan was taken aback. "What did you say?"
I said.
Qin Yiguan slowly said, "The Divergent Track of the Void Man sent me to a place that is still a hidden map of the Gemini Metaverse. However, by sheer coincidence, it sent me to a virtual world within a virtual map. In other words, my previous landing point was the center of a nested doll. I saw through the first layer by committing suicide. Now, I am in the second layer."
Jiao Shensan was shocked. "This child... his thinking has still been affected."
"Doctor Jiao, excuse me."
But then Qin Yiguan gently pushed Jiao Shensan, his gaze passing through the window as he looked towards the world of 2023.
[HSP Hypersensitivity] suddenly kicked in.
The CPH4 chemical bonds in my brain were flashing violently.
He examined the hidden map inch by inch, as endless data converged in his mind.
' Box World ' has been improved once again.
One part of the veil Gemini Metaverse has also been lifted.
'Bite!'
' Brain Hyperactivity Zone A01 [Box Syndrome], Development Rate +10%, Current Development Rate 33%'
at the same time.
Qin Yiguan also witnessed a rather magical scene.
The Future of this world will be like an unstoppable train roaring forward, moving along the timeline and developing continuously.
The spherical Earth will be peeled open like an orange, turning into a flat map, and with the evolution of time, it will gradually become what it looks like in the Future.
Technology is advancing rapidly.
Aircraft have replaced cars.
Skyscrapers, often 500 stories high, have replaced low-rise buildings.
Like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, enormous void screens sprang up across the land.
Ultimately, as if timelines merged, this place became the ' Core Earth ' within the Gemini Metaverse, and gradually evolved into Experimental Zone.
"The timeline within the Metaverse is linear."
"The Gemini Metaverse uses virtual reality to deduce the past and Future."
"Assuming the real world is in 2123, it's like a cursor, moving forward inch by inch."
Qin Yiguan nodded.
then.
Qin Yiguan then saw the world within the "Brain-Computer Interface".
After the Guardian and the Victim 'committed suicide,' their bodies seemed to undergo some kind of sacred transformation, slowly rising into the air as if flying into the timeline and disappearing completely.
Most remarkably, the world within the "Brain-Computer Interface" also merged with the main storyline as a branch of the timeline. The blue halo left by the Guardian continues to protect the city and has remained for a century.
Later stage.
The ability derived from this aura is to eliminate all ' Reality Enhancement ', transforming the Core Earth into a pristine land.
"Hiss..."
Qin Yiguan could understand the merging of timelines, since they both originated from the same source: the virtual world.
But since the personalities of the Guardian and the Victim were formed in the world of "Brain-Computer Interface," can they still travel through time?
It's like something inevitable.
Will they definitely 'reside' inside their own bodies?
at this time.
Following the timeline, Qin Yiguan saw the world in 2123.
White threads grew on its own body, releasing spores, and it knelt on a mound in the Experimental Zone field.
The Lantern Bearer reappeared, and with him came another "Super Lord" member, whose name was "Rotten Man".
The Rotten Man unleashed a strange power, Jiu Zhengxuan, Meinan, Mudou, and others were all corrupted by this power, their bodies shattering into strings of code.
"Oh no!"
"Etc."
Qin Yiguan's expression changed. "I'm currently at a ' Brain-Computer Interface,' so how can I see my Future self? It's impossible for me to exist in both places simultaneously!"
It was at this time.
Qin Yiguan felt something strange on his face. He touched his face slightly and found that he was wearing a ceramic rabbit mask!
Right now, am I... Bystander?!
