First Player

Chapter 264 Chapter 262·"But you are crying"

Raising the difficulty of the dungeon to such an outrageous level allowed Mizushima Kawaharu to completely grasp Fuyuki's lifeline early on.

...Such a situation will only occur in the most difficult tasks, similar to "identity competition".

It is precisely because this competition is related to [the person in power] that she can fight to this point.

There is no hatred without reason, and hatred will not last long.

Only benefits are eternal.

Su Mingan looked at Mizushima Kawaharu who seemed to acquiesce, and sighed softly again.

The identity of [the person in power] is certainly not simple.

Judging from the scene when the organizer met with him alone and invited him alone at the end of the Third World, this was a special status with a very high status, and it was the only one.

Considering what the organizer said at the time about "promoting the dimension", it is normal for Mizushima Kawaharu to desire it so much.

As Ying said before, things like "controlling Zhai Xing" can actually be done when those in power are promoted to a certain level. Then this special identity must be different from the ordinary identity.

——This is an extremely special status.

"I see." Su Mingan said softly, "This is why you are so persistent."

...No matter how you put it, it's still because of internal fighting.

Even if it's not out of pure hatred, this kind of deliberate attempt to drag him to death for a certain status...

Also stupid.

Too stupid.

"...Then can I stop?" Mizushima Kawaharu said softly.

Su Mingan squinted his eyes.

"The world won't allow me to stop." She said: "...You don't understand at all, Su Ming'an."

"There are only two of us here, and we don't have language communication difficulties." Su Mingan said, "You can try to make me understand."

Mizushima Kawaharu closed her eyes.

The lost eyes had begun to grow some tissue with the help of the strengthening agent, and the wounds on her face had also begun to heal. The scene of flesh and blood growing looked particularly terrifying at this time.

When she opened her eyes again, there was already some sparkle in her eyes.

"You won't understand my wish." She said: "——I want to free my sister and all mankind from this world ruled by games."

Su Mingan's originally smiling expression became slightly stiff.

His breathing became slightly faster, his heartbeat began to speed up involuntarily, and he even began to sweat on his back.

But soon, he suppressed these reactions.

"What did you say?" He said in a very soft tone, facing the dog-like Mizushima Kawaharu.

"People who are ignorant and short-sighted will not understand my behavior." Mizushima Kawaharu said: "I have been educated by a noble family since I was a child, and I know how to endure humiliation and bear heavy burdens, and how to stand up after breaking.

...And even if I failed in the fifth world, I was still given a chance to make a comeback.

As long as I drag you to death here, complete my mission, become the player with the highest special status, and continue to advance, I will have the opportunity to save everyone...

But the world doesn't allow me to stop, I can't even take a step back.

The escape route has been blocked, blocked by myself.

——Unless I can drag you to death here. Otherwise, what awaits me is failure.

...a failure like now. "

Su Mingan even thought he heard wrongly.

He was stunned for a moment, a shock like a sea wave engulfed him, and an extremely unspeakable and mixed emotion brewed in his chest.

His throat was as dry as a desert, his mouth seemed to be on fire, and he couldn't say a word for a while.

...At this moment, he suddenly had the idea of ​​​​falling over.

Mizushima Kawaharu was telling him——

She has always been in trouble, almost dragging him into a death spiral and completely crushing his hopes.

She who made him die several times, almost drove him to the organizer, almost drove him crazy, she was actually telling him——

The reason why she did this and deliberately planned to kill him and drag him to hell together——

——It actually goes against what he has been thinking all along,

Exactly the same.

...She actually wants to save her planet, her home.

She was actually thinking about [ redeeming Zhai Xing ].

"..."

Su Mingan was almost out of breath.

But the difference between him and Mizushima Kawaharu is that he completely hides his true thoughts, while she says it directly.

...She even took the initiative to ask the organizers for help, asking them to give her such an opportunity.

But she had no way of replying and couldn't test it. She didn't know what kind of malice the organizers had towards people like her who had the idea of ​​​​rescuing Zhai Xing.

Therefore, she was pushed into a deeper abyss by the organizer.

...to face him.

To be his sharpening edge, to be his stepping stone.

Su Mingan felt a little dizzy for a moment.

The sudden amount of information hit his mind, and his eyes were filled with dark hallucinations that were constantly floating.

He couldn't describe the feeling.

… He has been fighting alone, all alone.

There is no one to talk to, no one to communicate with, and true thoughts must be covered up with selfish words.

He had thought before that in this game, there must be people who had the same thoughts as him, but they were destined to be unable to communicate with each other.

In such a world, they are destined to be isolated islands from each other, and they can only hold on to their own ideals and fight separately.

But now... someone was clearly standing in front of him, telling him.

She is also one of the isolated islands.

But the difference is - she doesn't seem to understand the danger, and is even stupid enough to speak out in this situation.

He almost wanted to grab her by the collar and tell her that she was targeting him so much and wanted to kill him as if she was self-destructing. It was just a stupid "car crash".

But at this time, facing such ignorant compatriots, he must sneer at this.

He must use the most malicious words to criticize her.

"Does it make sense?"

Su Mingan's expression froze for a moment, and then he smiled again.

Facing Mizushima Kawaharu, who had exactly the same idea as him, he smiled extremely sarcastically.

"Rescue Zhai Xing? Mizushima River, are you deliberately going against the organizer?"

"How could it be against you! You are still laughing? What's so funny!" Mizushima Kawaharu's emotions surged like a tide. She gritted her teeth and was extremely emotional:

"——How can a person like you understand! Even if it has no meaning now, I am giving it meaning! One day, I will definitely save the home where my sister is -"

"Even if you are promoted to the highest level of power, do you think you can accomplish such a thing?" Su Mingan sneered: "Who promised you, did you imagine it yourself?"

"I begged the organizers - they promised me -" Mizushima Kawaharu screamed: "I will definitely, absolutely be able to win my hometown back. At least, it will never fall into the hands of people like you -"

Su Mingan's smile became more genuine.

... He seems to have found a new path.

A brand new path besides clearing all levels perfectly.

He should probably thank this mad dog-like Mizushima Kawaharu.

"It's a good thing you failed." Su Mingan said.

"Su Mingan, you know nothing about me." Mizushima Kawaharu stared at him and suddenly calmed down:

"Your knowledge is too short-sighted and your experience is too little. You have never experienced the pain of struggling on the line of life and death, nor the shame of your family being robbed. If it were before, I can only blame you for not thinking of redemption. But now, you who have refused to redeem your home and still choose to dominate the entire world are extremely selfish."

"You want to deny everything about me?" Su Mingan said.

"Students living in an ivory tower." Mizushima Kawaharu stared at him: "What can you understand? What do you have?"

Her new eyes were as black as ink, as if they had not been stained by any dust, but the black blood at the edges was extremely vivid.

With blood in the corners of her eyes, her eyes were surprisingly cold:

"Su Ming'an... you will always look at things from the perspective of a villain. You are just a classic low-level figure who has gained tremendous power for a moment - you have no righteousness in your heart, and your desire for power has overwhelmed you.

From the moment you became the number one player and sacrificed Yueyue, I knew that you were extremely selfish in your heart.

For the sake of a name, you can watch your companions die, and you can steal other people's things without any scruples.

Like a child with nuclear weapons, your ideal level does not match your strength at all.

...And I, the rest of us, have seen and experienced far more tragedies than you.

Whether it's me, my sister, or even Edward, Ani, Adolf...their vision, experience, and world they see are much better than yours.

You're just-

A lucky little guy.

A little person who is noticed by the organizer.

Bad luck guy.

You, Su Mingan, were originally a student, and you who wielded a knife against your compatriots for a small immediate profit - you are so unworthy. "

Su Mingan listened to Mizushimakawa Haru's words and cried blood.

He could understand her words. After all, in her opinion, he was indeed an absolute enemy, but he did not show any influence at all because of her words.

But he couldn't forgive her behavior.

... As long as she can think a little more, she won't reveal all her own thoughts.

She was so stupid, stupid and naive.

Just like the passionate young comic protagonist, she thinks she can succeed with hard work, thinks that loud talk will make him "awake up", and thinks that as long as she works hard and lurks for so many years, good results will come...

But in fact, the biggest boss she faced and was despising actually had the same purpose as her from beginning to end.

...and she will never know the truth.

Because this BOSS also loves the world she loves equally and equally.

Su Mingan smiled.

He seemed to be performing in a funny stage play, crazily criticizing his own ideals.

"It sounds nice, but it's too naive, Mizushima - redeem your home, and then what?

You cannot have absolute dominance or the strongest strength.

You have a lot of troops but don't use them; you have strength but you don't care about it. You ignorantly fought against the organizer and ended up like this.

Before you make a choice, you should clearly understand the winning rate and outcome.

You should know that passion or simple love for your sister will not be the reason for your success.

——You have never really fought against fate, but only lost to the person you despised the most.

Listen up. "

He said word by word to Mizushima Kawaharu on the ground:

"You can't do that at all."

"You can't save anyone."

"There will be no result if we continue. No one can win in the end with such a ridiculous reason as redeeming Zhai Xing."

"Your blood will be drained and your passion will fade away."

"[You just adopted an extremely simplified and extreme way of thinking, put all opinions on the line, and turned them into admirable principles.]"

"——During this period, you learned nothing, only learned to completely affirm yourself and completely deny your opponents."

"And if dignity is lost the first time, it will naturally happen a second time."

"Look, just under my momentary coercion, in less than a minute, you abandoned your dignity again, scored twice, and lay down in front of me like a dog, just like you did before."

"Your so-called ideals are worthless, and your persistence for more than ten years is meaningless. The meaning you say is far from meaningless."

"Redeeming one's homeland is simply impossible - it is impossible for human beings to resist the organizers or go against their will."

"Rules are things from the perspective of the people in power, and you violated the basic rules of the game."

"You're basically asking for your own destruction."

"You regard persistence and perseverance as progress, and righteousness as your own virtue. You think that under fair rules, you can get everything from the "game" system, and be a hard-core player who overturns the chessboard."

"—but you don't understand at all."

He stood up slowly, looked at the abyss-like corridor, looked at Mo Yan walking slowly over, looked at the pendant in his hand, and said softly:

"Mizushima River, you need to understand that in the game, players are the most humble beings who need to comply with the rules the most.

…

And you will end up with nothing. "

"..." Listening to his long words, Mizushima Kawaharu's expression finally showed signs of collapse.

She was trembling, her whole body was trembling, her red eyes were staring at him, and she seemed to want to stretch out a pair of hands out of thin air and crush his neck.

Shock, pain, sadness, disappointment...so many emotions flowed through her heart like a tide.

"Luckily you turned off the live broadcast and said these words." She said hoarsely.

"Then have you been influenced by me?" Su Mingan asked.

"Never." She was silent for a moment and said firmly.

"Unfortunately."

"...because my path has ended here," she said.

Su Mingan's eyes moved.

"I can't kill you, I can't stop you. My escape route has been blocked by myself." Mizushima Kawaharu said: "I only had this one chance, and I failed."

"..."

"As a loser, what awaits me is disappearance and death," she said.

"..."

"Su Ming'an, you are very arrogant, extremely arrogant." She said: "Others didn't see it, but I have fully heard your arrogance in your words.

Even if you succeed in dominating everything in the end - you won't be able to bring this land back to life.

You have been completely assimilated, and you have become completely insensitive to the bottom line and emotions that humans should have.

You are no longer a human being.

In a real sense, you have adapted to the game - you have become the real first 'player'. "

As she spoke, her voice became hoarse and her voice became fainter.

As if floating in the clouds, she spoke her last words with vague words and blood dripping from the corners of her mouth:

"--congratulations."

Su Mingan closed his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, he saw the body of the girl in front of him who had lost all limbs and had completely fallen to the ground.

The blood stained her body like a map. She closed her eyes and remained silent, like a dark tombstone.

His hands trembled slightly.

...When can human beings truly master themselves?

Don't pretend to be crazy, don't beg for mercy, don't live like a slave or a dog to prevent your true intentions from being exposed.

The incompetent pioneer died before his eyes.

Separated by a sad barrier, their ideals cannot communicate.

And even for such a foolish compatriot...he could still hear the tremors in her soul as she fell before him.

Scarce and valuable.

Stupid and naive.

And he will end this game himself.

After nine months.

He raised his head.

He saw Mo Yan standing at the door with a somewhat shocked expression.

"Mo Yan, what's wrong?"

He thought that what they said was a bit shocking and could frighten the whole world, but Mo Yan heard it.

"Brother." Mo Yan quickly approached him: "Are you okay?"

Su Mingan knew that Mo Yan probably heard it.

But he felt that Mo Yan was a trustworthy person.

The other party even gave his life to him, several times.

"It's okay - someone said that people who are constantly pursuing their own interests are the most motivated and ideal people."

When Su Mingan said this, he showed a bright smile: "...I think they are right."

"..."

Mo Yan looked at him.

Mo Yan was looking at him with extremely complicated eyes, watching him carefully, as if looking at a strange object.

"...brother."

…

"But you're crying."
