Chapter 897 Whirlpool City’s back-up plan

It was getting dark, so Jiang Ruoxue took me and Gu Yu to a nearby building to rest.

Thanks to her, I actually became familiar with this boy whom I met for the first time.

The three of us sat in the house together. Gu Yu lit a bonfire with the flint he carried with him. He said that he was a magician before coming here.

Jiang Ruoxue gave a brief introduction to the two of us. She seemed to have some concerns and did not reveal my identity as the "King of the Ultimate Dao", but only said that I was a "Ultimate Daoist".

But the next words out of her mouth made my jaw drop.

She said that Gu Yu was actually a traveler from another city.

I have come into contact with many identities in "The End", and even I have been a "thief" myself, but I have never heard of "traveler".

"So...is there any difference?" I asked, "Where we are and where you are."

"How should I put it..." Gu Yu slowly lowered his head, "The underlying logic is the same, but the expression is very different..."

Gu Yu and I introduced the situation of "Jade City" where he was in detail. Jiang Ruoxue should have heard about it a long time ago, and she shook her head helplessly.

I have to say that this is a situation I have never imagined, but it makes sense if I think about it carefully.

Once one person accidentally builds the organization to a certain scale, others will have to be forced to join, otherwise there will be no vitality at all. This will lead to the pathological organization getting bigger and bigger, and there will be fewer and fewer normal people.

The organization of "Jade City" is like an infectious disease that is changing the "participants" there on a large scale.

"So what do you think?" I said. "Are you going to escape that city, or are you going to save that city?"

"I... don't know." Gu Yu slowly lowered his head, "I know my abilities... I am just an actor who can be watched, but I am not a wise man who can rule a city. But there is indeed a right person there. My important people...I have been wandering around for a long time. If I don't go back to help them, I'm afraid something will happen."

"You don't even know what you think?" I asked.

"Yes...Sister Zhichun, I have explained my situation to you...if it were you, what would you choose?"

He posed the question to me, but I knew he just wanted my advice.

"I'm sorry, my advice may not be of much use to you." I said, "I only love myself in this world, so I won't be a hero and take risks to save a city or something. It sounds too ridiculous. I will only take care of myself, find ways to protect myself as soon as possible, and then lend a helping hand within my ability. I will save if I can. If I can't save, I can only say that I tried my best. "

After listening to my words, Gu Yu slowly lowered his head, seeming a little sad.

"Sister Xue... what about you...?" Gu Yu asked again, "Do you think so too?"

"Well..." Jiang Ruoxue pondered for a while and said, "Although I love myself too, my way is different from Zhichun. I think if you want to save people, you can save them, and if you want to stay, you can stay. After all, what comes to mind If you don't do it, you will only end up wasting your own time. But the same thing...even if you die there forever because of your own decision, you can't blame anyone for going there because you want to. Your "karma".

Jiang Ruoxue and I gave two completely different paths, and no one knew what Gu Yu should choose.

He seemed to be very confused to begin with, but he became even more confused after listening to what Jiang Ruoxue and I said.

In that case, let me help him.

"My suggestion is that you try another city first," I said. "Everyone knows there's no way to save it."

"Changing a city...? It's easier said than done..." Gu Yu shook his head, "Every time I go to another city, it takes a long time... Once the people in my room find out the clues and force me to stay, I will I can’t leave either.”

Gu Yu shared information about other cities with us.

He said that in addition to the "Daocheng" where we were and the "Jade City" where he was, there were two cities that had long since lost their normal people, and one city was still surviving.

Gu Yu stayed in that city for several years and recently came to us.

But the city called "Wortex City" sounds very similar to the "Jade City" where Gu Yu is located.

There is only one ruler in this huge city, and this ruler leads everyone to fight to the death with the "zodiac animals". Every time he steps into the game venue, he starts the "bet on life" for the first time.

They believe that after betting all the "zodiac signs" to death, even if the "participants" win, the reincarnation will be meaningless.

But...they don't even know that "zodiac signs" can appear continuously?

I thought about it carefully and realized it quickly.

In "Wortex City", how come someone wears a mask and is called "Zodiac"?

The "zodiac" in that city is obviously a high-risk profession and faces huge dangers every day. They are tired of dealing with the influx of "participants" every day, and even want to escape.

In this case, will any "participant" pick up the mask and put it on their head, willing to become a "zodiac sign"?

It's like on the battlefield, the two sides are fighting fiercely, and when our side is suppressing the other side with firepower, a soldier suddenly chooses to wear the enemy's clothes.

In other words...whether it is "Whirlpool City" or "Jade City", everyone has different information gaps due to various coincidences.

People in "Vortex City" don't even know that "participants" will become "zodiac signs" when they put on masks.

No...if they had been in this situation for many years, they might be in a similar situation to "Tama City".

Even though the leader named Nie Bei had discovered the clues, he had no way to turn back.

After all, all members of the organization are working hard in this direction. Betting all the "zodiac signs" to death is the only belief of this city. How can the leader at this time say, "We made a mistake every time, and those teammates died in vain." ?

He does not want and will not admit this reality.

The entire "Whirlpool City" is like an arrow shot out, with no way to turn back. Even if you know there is an iron wall ahead, you can only hit it and break yourself.

Otherwise they have no way to explain to anyone.

"You just said that "Whirlpool City" is now "living on"?" I asked again.

"Yes." Gu Yu nodded, "If you think about it carefully, you will know that the number of people in "Wortex City" is decreasing every day. Your teammates who share life and death with you in this reincarnation may disappear in the next reincarnation. And the rest People will join the game again for revenge, forming a vicious circle... It is estimated that before long, there will be no living people in the entire city. "

wrong……

I feel like it's not that simple.

If Nie Bei was really someone who could lead a city, he would not have thought of this.

He will definitely have backup plans in advance. Even if "Whirlpool City" is destroyed, there will definitely be someone who will survive on behalf of "Whirlpool City".
