Chapter 574: The Drowning Man From the Future Has Landed on the Path to the End 【...】

At the same time, Cen Bu Ming finally reached out his hand and held Bai Liu's hand, indifferently saying, "There's nothing good to say between us."
"There is no need for much conversation between the executioner and the executed."
Cen Boming withdrew his hand, turned and walked away. Bai Liu dropped her eyes and watched Cen Boming's retreating figure. There was still a lingering feeling in her palm from being strangled by the Ring of Death.
White Willow did not argue with people as before, but calmly watched Cen Buming go far away.
- This person is telling the truth.
He really wants to kill him.
"Prepare to log into the game." White Willow returned to his team, ??his tone calm, "By any means, ??kill the clown with all our might."
"Yes!"
Someone immediately responded by saying, "Yes, but Mushichen seems a bit confused and asked, 'Bailiu, you only told us about our attacking targets, but who is the target of the opponent's attack?'"
Bai Liu opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but when he looked at his teammates staring at him, he paused and said, "I am not sure yet, I will talk about it after entering the game."
"Could it be you?!" Mu Sichen felt a little nervous. "Damn!"
"No," Tang Er shook his head with certainty. "Bailiu is the safest person in this copy."
"There's no way for the clown to shoot him."
"I think so too." Liu Jiayi thought for a moment and replied, "Ask Phoebe, she said Daniel is very fond of Bai Liu, to the extent of being jealous of the teammates around Bai Liu."
"— According to this idea, the people around Bai Liu are more likely to be targeted by the clown."
"Although they heard this dangerous news, some people inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief."
"That's good." Muko smiled lightly, rare for him to smile so sincerely, "Even without shooting Kuroyanagi, we can still fight with peace of mind."
"I have reservations about this, after all, besides Joker, there is also the Executioner on the other side." Bai Liuyu's tone was calm as he walked towards the login portal on the other side of the big screen, "Stay vigilant, let's enter the game first."
Someone's laughter disappeared in an instant as they were about to log into the game, becoming extremely heavy.
Mu Sichen was constantly exhaling and inhaling, just now he couldn't see the easygoing manner that he used to have, his hands were so nervous that they were almost immobilized, Mu Ke clenched a dagger, lowered his gaze, and walked with slightly heavier footsteps than usual. Liu Jiayi repeatedly opened the system panel, solemnly confirming her healing skill.
Some people feel an unprecedented sense of oppression from the skills of the Joker, Daniel.
... Even if they are swallowed by the Sinners' Well by Cen Bingming, the worst result is that the golden life-saving card is invalidated and they die, but as long as the subsequent points are sufficient, the soul exists, and there is still a chance of resurrection. However, if they are hit by the Soul Shattering Spear, there will be no room for turning things around.
Even games can't save a player whose soul is shattered.
Tang Er is well aware of this.
He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, slowly released his clenched fist, and tried to calm down his chaotic mind.
... Daniel and Cen Buming were actually on the same team, which completely subverted his understanding. Although each world line has different variables, there has never been such a huge change.
This change is comparable, this hunter joins the Bai Liu team.
Is it a coincidence? Did his joining the Bai Liu team cause a butterfly effect? Why would Chen Boming be in the same team as Daniel, what is he doing?
But now, thinking about these things is pointless. The urgent matter at hand is to win against the opponent, only then can we explore the answers to these questions.
Tang Er opened his deep blue eyes and stared at Bai Liu's back as he walked into the login entrance, gripping his handgun tightly-
——This time, he will never let his tactics instructor, in front of him, meet that bullet.
【...Loading game...】
【System prompt: Both players log in to the game "Drowning in the Future"】
【(Hunter) vs (Wandering Circus), a five-person team competition, begins officially】
Bai Liu opened his eyes and found himself floating in a vast and deep dark universe. More precisely, he was wearing a spacesuit with a safety harness around his waist, suspended near a space station. He could see a huge spacecraft connected to the space station on his side.
And around him and behind him, in the vast and silent space, it was not the view of the universe he had seen in books or picture albums before, but rather a multitude of Earths, orbiting this colossal spaceship according to some kind of pattern, with no asteroid belts, no differently shaped stellar bodies, only one thing - Earth, enveloped in a halo of light.
——And Bai Li once showed him a light sphere-shaped world line that was exactly the same.
And behind these "earths" are scattered and shattered starry halos, which are all tinged with a faint silvery-blue color, staring at them makes one feel dizzy and uncomfortable, giving the feeling of sinking into a certain deep sea, generating a drowning sensation.
白柳很快发现久地直视这些银蓝『色』光晕会让人精神值下降，他眯眯眼睛——这种熟悉光晕让他想起某个神。
【系统提示：你是一名跳跃世界线，来到世界线之外玩家。】
【God rejoices in your success and welcomes your arrival. He will present to you His supreme masterpiece - the game system.】
【Activate the main quest: Please log in to the spaceship and find the key on the spaceship to control it. Fly towards the center of the world line where the temple is located.】
"...Please return to the cabin door," a mechanical announcement echoed inside Bai Liu's spacesuit, "oxygen levels are running low, please return to the cabin door."
Bai Liu turned his helmet and looked through the transparent visor to see the safety line moving slowly towards the end connecting the cabin door. He gripped the safety line, pulled it, and floated lightly towards the cabin door, slipping inside.
The cabin door closes, and a mechanical sound comes from above: "Scanning in progress, adjusting environment, activating gravity and air systems, simulating biological living conditions, please do not remove the spacesuit..."
"Simulation completed, please enter the interior."
A burst of white mist rose from the bottom, and the floating sensation on Bai Liu's body disappeared instantly. The feeling of being pulled at his feet appeared, and the weightlessness vanished. He landed on the ground, and a cabin door opened in front of him. Bai Liu walked towards the interior of the space station, and the cabin door closed behind him, revealing the entire interior of a precision-operated spacecraft.
In the face of the past, there is a whole metallic textured reticulated corridor where various robotic arms are seen operating. The robotic arms place something enclosed within a square grid onto another assembly line, while another robotic arm above seals it with a stamp - [Transportation Object: June 16th Worldline Reality].
【Transport: Dried Rose Grafting Material (Heterodox)】
Bai Liu slowly takes off his helmet and hangs it aside. He walks into the spacious spaceship-like factory, his gaze surveying everything being produced on each assembly line.
【Transportation object: 0408 Worldline (game)】
【Transportation item: Flame Torch (prop)】
【Transportation item: Underwater Bubble (prop)】
"Bai Liu -!" From a distance, there came the sound of Mu Sicheng running. He ran out of breath, as if he was afraid that Bai Liu would touch something on the assembly line. He exclaimed, "Don't touch those things!"
"I won't touch it." Bai Liu looked at Mu Sichen, who had run up to him, raising an eyebrow. "Have you touched it before?"
Mu Sichen's face showed traces of being attacked by a robotic arm, with scratches on both sides of his face. He grimaced, "I ran too fast and accidentally bumped into it."
"This robotic arm can attack people. Initially, I thought it was a monster from a monster book, so I fought with the robotic arm to trigger the monster book. However, it turned out that it was just a simple robotic arm."
"This copy does not need to trigger the monster book." Bai Liu's gaze returned from the production items on those assembly lines, his tone calm, "This entire spaceship is the system backstage."
"We encounter a monster with each box."
"System...backend?!" Mu Sicheng exclaimed, "Are you saying that this place is the system's backend?!"
"Then why did we log in?!"
Bai Liu quickly realized something was wrong and turned to look at Mu Sicheng: "Didn't you receive a system prompt?"
"The background introduction is from the [system back-end],"
Mu Sicheng looked at Bai Liu in confusion: "I didn't receive anything..."
"We didn't receive any system prompts, just told to cooperate with you to find the key and go to the top level, and then get control of this spaceship."
"So it's specifically asking you all to accompany to the top level, is that right?" Bai Liu's tone was surprisingly calm, "None of you can accomplish this task, correct?"
Musashi looked at Shirayuri, nodding absentmindedly, "Yes."
"Specifically, it is to accompany [Player Shirayuri] to the top level and gain control of the spaceship."
He had never seen Shirayuri's expression look so... unpleasant.
"And what about you?" Bai Liu stared at Mu Sichen, "What role have you been assigned in this game?"
Mu Sichen also sensed that something was wrong from Bai Liu's attitude. He opened his system panel and handed it to Bai Liu, saying, "It's this."
And at the moment Bai Liu saw the identity on the panel of Ma Shi Cheng, his pupils contracted.
【System Prompt: Ma Shi Cheng, after jumping out of the world line, has been deprived of player identity】
【Verifying identity again.】
【Real identity: 0658 World Line Transportation Product, humanoid heretic, codenamed 0004——】
【——Tail Monkey Thief Makishishi.】
【System Spaceship Backstage Soul Storage Location——First Level.】
White willow breath stagnation.
——On this spaceship, in this system backend, not only produces and transports to the world line heresy, monsters and props, but also stores the souls of players who have entered this game.
Liu Jiayi, Mu Sicheng, Tang Erda, Mu Ke, Lu Yizhan... These people have half of the soul.
This system backend has the other half.
【System reminder: When you have this spaceship, you have the system itself.】
【To become an evil god, the last transit ticket.】
...This is not a game at all.
Bai Liu slowly turned his head and looked through the transparent window at the 658 "Earth" revolving around this spaceship. The pitch-black pupils reflected the silver-blue "color" of space - these are 658 world lines.
He logged into the gateway to the ultimate future reality.
