Chapter 263: A “Gift” from the Darkness
"What?!"
Wang Haiwen was startled at first, and could sense some information floating in his mind:
"System? Wait, what do you mean? Didn't Chen Wei die in a car accident?"
As the words fell, more information continued to appear in my mind.
This information is very special. The moment I perceive it, it is as if I directly understand all the contents in it through "hearing", "seeing", "smelling", etc.
"No, her death was not an accident. She died at the hands of others..."
The message ended here. Wang Haiwen's face was grim, and he shouted, "Died from others? What do you mean? Tell me quickly!"
"I can only tell you if you accept the 'system', not before that."
Seeing this, Wang Haiwen was about to get angry, but suddenly fell silent: "Anyway, she's dead... You mean, there's still a way for me to see her again and revive her?"
"Yes, yes." The information stored in the mind seemed to carry a hint of temptation, making people want to agree involuntarily.
"What is your purpose? Why did you find me?"
"The end of the world is coming, and the world needs more salvation..."
"Doomsday?" Wang Haiwen was stunned.
"Yes, in the future the world is about to collapse, countless disasters will break out, and you will become one of the chosen ones."
"You really don't have anything else in mind?"
"I'm just a 'system' anthropomorphic self-service response app. I answer all your inquiries. What bad intentions could I have?"
Hearing this, Wang Haiwen remained silent, and finally asked: "Can you really revive her?"
He sensed the option in his mind, and he had a hunch that once he made the choice, he might fall into the abyss.
It doesn’t matter if he falls into the abyss, but what if the real target of this “system” below is actually Chen Wei, and it approaches him just to steal something from Chen Wei? What then?
"I can provide a method to revive her. Whether you can revive her in the end and whether you are willing to spend the price to revive her depends on you. Maybe you have forgotten your feelings for her halfway through."
"Impossible! I can't possibly forget her!"
Wang Haiwen felt that his feelings were questioned. After he finished speaking, he chose to agree without any hesitation.
In an instant, some memories that should have been cleared reappeared in my mind.
After recalling what happened at that time, his eyes were bloodshot and he burst into anger: "That damn guy, I must, I must kill him!"
I will not be a human being if I don’t avenge this!
When he becomes strong, I will kill him. No, I will kill his entire family!
However, at this moment, another line of information appeared in my mind.
"No, no, no, not only should you not hate him, you should thank him!"
"What the hell are you talking about?!" Wang Haiwei couldn't accept it. Although he knew that this was just an intelligent program that might have ulterior motives, he still couldn't help but feel angry.
"If it weren't for his help, your girlfriend might have become a slave of Starry Sky, and you would have no chance of reviving her..."
"What do you mean?" Wang Haiwei's anger subsided and he was confused.
But soon, through the information in his mind, he understood that all this was due to the conspiracy of an organization called the "Astronomical Observation Society" and it was because of them, his girlfriend and fiancée, that this happened.
"I was wrong about him, those damn cultists."
Wang Haiwei took a deep breath and sat back in his seat: "So, what should I do next?"
As soon as the words fell, three pieces of information popped up in my mind.
"1. Go to... find any mainstream church among the followers of the great and noble 'Red Moon', become its believer, and obtain the 'True Red Blood' within one month."
"2. Sneak into the 'Astronomical Observation Society', kill the evil false god, and obtain the 'Crazy Color' pigment (need to complete the prerequisite of Task 1)."
"3. Go to Base 5, find the 'Corroded Remains (Chen Wei)', and start the resurrection ceremony."
After reading the above contents one by one, Wang Haiwei stood up and left the room without waiting for dawn.
…
At the same time, in a special hospital ward in another city, a palm-sized creature with only a shadow and no substance drilled into the body of a critically ill vegetative patient who had been lying in bed for many years.
A few minutes later, the "vegetative man" suddenly opened his eyes, sat up, and looked around blankly:
"Where is this place? I...didn't I die in the conspiracy of the Astronomical Observation Society?"
Some memories of a car accident long ago surfaced in his mind. He was stunned for a moment, and then looked at his hands in disbelief: "It's only the year 2020? I, I went back to the past ten years ago?!"
And at this moment, a line of familiar subtitles appeared before my eyes.
[Some kind of power seems to have brought you back to more than a decade ago. At this moment, everything is still very new.]
"This is……"
The "vegetative man" was confused for a while, and then seemed to get some kind of "revelation", and then he was overjoyed. This was an ability he once had, the ability to get and break the predicament!
After confirming that this place was really more than a decade ago, he laughed wildly:
“Hahaha, I didn’t expect that I would be reborn again!
"This time, I will definitely overturn the conspiracy of the 'Astronomical Observation Society' and kill those guys who summoned the outer gods! Kill all human traitors!
"This time I will rewrite all the endings!"
…
In another area, a man weighing more than 200 kilograms was eating roasted field mouse, but before he had taken a few bites, a line of information appeared in his mind in a very abrupt way.
"You have obtained one of the super talent fragments, 'World Food'. As long as you eat it, you will become stronger!"
"The only mission: within thirty days, defeat the other holders of the fragment, complete all the fragments, and go to the 'Astronomical Observation Club' to devour the false god and obtain the 'Crazy Color'..."
“Eat, eat, eat! Swallow all enemies into your stomach and use them as your nourishment!”
That night, it seemed that countless people had received "gifts"...
…
Ding-ding-ding-ding
The distant and ancient bell sounds slowly fade away from my ears.
Colin came to "World No. 13" again. He opened his eyes and saw the familiar bonfire. It was warm and bright, but it did not remind people of the discomfort of being burned by flames.
Compared to before, perhaps because of the deeper power of the Fire Bearer, Colin could clearly feel that the flames seemed to have an inexplicable closeness to himself.
[You obtained "Almost Pure Colorless Crystal × 37". ]
"Huh...colorless crystal, the energy density is even higher."
Colin took out one and took a look at it. The effect was significantly better than before. After using one, he could spend energy freely within fifteen minutes.
For example, if it is used directly on an ordinary person, that person will be able to run at full sprint for fifteen minutes.
This effect is still very exaggerated...
