Chapter 1368 – “Virtual Reconstruction”
Under the night colors.
”A nice bunch of little guys.”
On a distant hill, Li Clang sat on the top of a boulder, his hands propped up behind his upper body, the evening breeze blowing his floral shirt over.
Dark toadstools were worn on the bridge of his nose, making it impossible to see his expression, only the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned.
Nie Jinshan, who was dressed in a Chinese mountain suit, stood at the top of the mountain with a figure as straight as a strong pine, his eyes gazing in the direction of the burning bonfire, and he calmly opened his mouth.
”Nostalgia?”
”What?”
”Those brothers of yours.” Nie Jinshan glanced at him, “The you from back then, and the current Lin Qiye, are practically identical ……”
Li Clang, who had always been frivolous and slippery, rarely fell into silence, he sighed and lay on his back on the boulder, his eyes under his sunglasses gazing at the bright stars in the sky.
After an unknown amount of time, he slowly opened his mouth:
”Old Nie, do you know what was the hardest thing for me to endure after becoming a Yingling?”
”Loneliness?”
”No, it’s the fact that damn old me can’t drink!” Li Clang couldn’t help but burst out, “This Yingling’s body, no matter how much alcohol I drink, I won’t get drunk!
I also want to be like these little guys, I can freely get drunk …… even once.”
Li Clang took a deep breath and muttered in a voice only he could hear:
”That way, old me can dream about them one more time ……”
Nie Jinshan didn’t say anything, he looked deeply at Li Clang on the stone, turned around, and walked away into the distance, the
It was only after a long time that a voice slowly drifted into Li Clang’s ears, and
”…… Take them well.”
The cold wind whipped through the silent mountain peaks, Li Clang Li lay motionless on top of the boulder, like a rotten drunken corpse.
The next day.
Lin Qiye carried his basin and toothbrush and walked to the clear stream, where Baili Chubby and Cao Yuan were already squatting and washing up.
Lin Qiye had just squatted down when he heard Baili Fatty’s puzzled voice coming from the side:
”Old Cao, did you hear any strange sounds last night?”
”Strange sounds?”
”It’s …… just, the creepy kind, it feels like someone is singing in my ears ……”
On the side, the corner of Lin Qiye’s mouth twitched unnoticeably.
Cao Yuan thought carefully, “No, I didn’t hear it.”
Baili Fatty scratched his head, somewhat disbelievingly asked Lin Qiye beside him again, “Seven Nights, did you hear it?”
”What did you say? Louder!”
”…… Forget it.”
Several people finished washing up and returned to the front of the underground air defense shelter, then they saw Li Clang wearing toadstools standing at the door, curiously surveying the brand new equipment inside.
”Brother Gun.”
”Hiss …… you guys got it here can ah, now outside technology is so advanced?” Li Clang patted the automatic massage chair in the corner and tentatively sat on it, then the hard lump that suddenly rumbled in the back of the chair startled him, and his entire body bounced up from the chair, “Advanced, really advanced!”
Lin Qiye cried and laughed as he spoke, “Brother Gun, we’re all ready, what’s the content of today’s training?”
Li Clang swept his gaze over the crowd, “Follow me.”
Half an hour later.
Li Clang led them, through a rugged mountain road, eventually stopping in front of an extremely wide valley.
Instead of a valley, it was more like a small basin surrounded by mountains, with the flat land in the center being at least half the size of a prefecture-level city, and with the wide field of view coupled with the surrounding peaks, it was as if humans had become as small as ants.
”What is such a spacious site to be used for?” Baili Fatty looked around and asked the others beside him in a low voice.
”Should it be some sort of chase? Or physical training?” Lin Qiye thought about it, “However, at our realm, we shouldn’t need to exercise our physical abilities anymore. ……”
For those below the “Chuan” realm, their spiritual power was weaker, and even if they utilized the Forbidden Ruins, the effect they could have was very limited, so in daily battles, physical ability would play an important role, and the lower the realm, the more pronounced the effect would be.
But for Lin Qiye, not to mention just a valley, even if it was from the easternmost to the westernmost part of this island, it would take at most ten seconds to catalyze the [Somersault Cloud].
Under the suspicious gazes of the crowd, Li Clang slowly stopped.
”Everyone, are you ready?” He looked back at the crowd, the corner of his mouth hooked into a smile.
”Ready …… for what?”
Snap!
Without waiting for Lin Qiye and the others to ask more questions, Li Clang lightly snapped his fingers, and the scenery around the crowd changed rapidly!
The flat ground with weeds growing under the feet of the crowd suddenly turned into an uneven stone brick road, above the deserted flat ground on both sides, a building rose up, the sky changed, the mountains were hidden, and everything around them became unprecedentedly unfamiliar.
But in the blink of an eye, they had gone from the island, to the center of an urban area.
Ding bell-!
The dense ringing of car bells pulled back Lin Qiye and the others’ consciousness.
A large number of bicycles were weaving through the roads, and as far as the eye could see, almost all of them were figures of youths wearing lake-blue clothes and pushing bicycles as they talked and laughed as they walked out of the distant factories and slowly advanced under the shade of the forest.
The broadcasting sounds of old radios, the yells of street vendors, and the hum of distant sirens …… reached the ears of the crowd from all parts of the street.
Lin Qiye and the others stood on the side of the road, looking at the bare retro buildings around them, falling into a deep daze ……
”Cough.”
A light coughing sound came from the side, only to see Li Clang, who was wearing a flowery shirt and flared pants that perfectly blended into the surroundings, looking at them with a smile.
”Gunny …… what’s going on here?”
”No need to be nervous, this is using my Forbidden Ruins to reconstruct the memories in your conscious world.” Li Clang took out eighty cents from his pocket and bought a pack of production cigarettes from a vendor, held it in the corner of his mouth and lit it.
He took a deep breath, exhaled hazy smoke, and continued unhurriedly, saying.
”My Forbidden Market, is Sequence 048’s [Virtual Reconstruction], able to recreate the scenes I have experienced in a specific target environment.”
An Qingyu thought for a moment, “Scene recreation …… is similar to watching a movie?”
”No, it’s not that simple.” Li Clang hemmed and hawed, “Any scene that I reconstruct will be ‘corrected’ based on my perception and memory …… Simply put, everything here has a mind. ”
Li Clang clamped a cigarette and pointed at the vendor who had just left.
”For example, that cigarette seller just now, in my original experience, I didn’t buy cigarettes from his hand’s, but in the reconstructed scene, I went to make the change of ‘buying cigarettes’, then he will sell me cigarettes according to my subconscious idea… …Every person you meet here, every thing you encounter, is subject to change based on your behavior, can you understand it in that way?”
”…… isn’t watching a movie, but something like an open-ended game?” An Qingyu pondered.
