……

The young woman also fell.She stretched out her hands to cover her head and face in the high-altitude wind, but was still blown up and down in the air by the wind that swept from all directions.

Without that computer, she is no longer the "god" here.

From the corner of Zheng Zhuo's eyes, he saw the following.The number of subconscious worlds is still so much.But in more places, the deep blue sea is still exposed.

"(From this height...I don't even know...whether I can fall into the subconscious world...!)"

It's too windy!Even if you adjust your posture intentionally, no one can guarantee which [subconscious world] you will fall into!

Those participants rescued by Zheng Zhuo before fell into the [subconscious world] by accident.They fell there, lost their memories, and almost completely identified themselves as part of it.

If young women fall like this, they will become like that.

This is definitely not what Zheng Zhuo wants to see.

She knows the most about the "Professor" and his team, and only she and her ability [Subconscious Programming: Level 13] can fully use the entire [Collective Subconscious] system.

Now that [Pure White World] is collapsing, if the young woman loses her memory again, Zheng Zhuo doesn't know if he can come back to her again after returning!
And if it falls directly into the sea...

I don't even know what will happen!

Zheng Zhuo gritted his teeth in the wind.With his left hand he tightly held the golden card of [Love Seed], and he stretched out his right hand towards the young woman.

30 cm.

20 cm.

10 cm.

"(Just a little bit...)"

"(!)"

Zheng Zhuo grabbed the young girl's wrist from below!And the young woman also turned her head in surprise——

At this moment, the [Love Species] card lit up.

It glows golden.This light is like lighting up a dazzling star among the sea, the sky, and the falling pure white cubes.

The light of the stars radiates outward.Soon, it dissipated in the sky.

Far below, there was the continuous sound of the white cubes falling into the water.

Zheng Zhuo and the young woman who were there did not fall into the water together.

They are gone.

……

In the golden light, Zheng Zhuo opened his eyes against the wind blowing from nowhere.

In a golden phantom, he saw another person.

That is a young woman.After she was caught by him, she was brought into this golden space together.Now, they are flying by his side.

Seeing Zheng Zhuo looking at her, she also turned her head, just in time to see Zheng Zhuo.

"Just now... what happened just now? Why did the pure white space collapse?"

Zheng Zhuo asked.This is what he cares most about.

However, the young woman did not give an answer either.

"I don't know either! I don't see any abnormalities in the detection indicators."

The young woman covered her head, as if she hadn't recovered from the shock just now.

"I turned around and wanted to tell you about your spiritual indicators... Hey! Wait! Your spiritual indicators!"

She yelled suddenly.

"Hey, calm down." Zheng Zhuo shrank back, "What's wrong with my mental indicators...?"

"It's reached the critical value. It's very similar to the previous participants... My brother's last brain wave signal is very close." The young woman grabbed Zheng Zhuo's upper arm and said, "You shouldn't enter the [subconscious world] anymore. -"

"Uh."

Zheng Zhuo paused.

"But I'm already in."

"..."

The young woman stared at Zheng Zhuo's face.There was a complicated expression on her face.

Zheng Zhuo was not used to being worried about him like this.A sense of narrowness prompted him to speak.

"...No... I don't think it's that bad." He moved his body and said, "When I first entered the [Pure White World], I really felt something was wrong, but after falling...I mean, falling into After the golden space, I feel much better."

"My head is not so heavy and my thinking speed is back. Most importantly, my reaction speed is not slow."

However, the young woman frowned tightly.

"...You don't realize the seriousness of the matter."

Enduring a headache, she said.

"If this goes on, you..."

at this time.

[Love] The card buzzed suddenly.It slipped out of Zheng Zhuo's hand and flew into a golden light.

At this time, the sides of the two also vaguely appeared on the screen.

In the bustling metropolis, neon signs of various colors make the night look like day.

Airships in the air, self-driving cars suspended on the ground, row upon row of high-rise buildings, and intricate streets.

Above, is a magnificent luxury landmark that shows simplicity and grandeur.The upper-class people in crisp suits took the scooter, got off the car gracefully beside the spotless avenue, shook hands and greeted each other.

Below, there are dirty alleys, bazaars full of sewage, dark city corners, piles of scrap iron, and tattooed youths whispering like mice in the corners.

The scenery keeps changing.Zheng Zhuo saw [Love Seed] again.

She was wearing a bright red dress, her curly hair was permed, and she stepped on high heels, pushing open one door after another.

She walked from the bar to the high-end apartment, from the high-end apartment to the motel, from the motel to the dark billiard hall, and from the billiard hall to the underground doctor's clinic.

She talks to different people.

The bartender in the bar, the distinguished guest on the bed in the high-end apartment, the smoking grandmother in the motel, the unruly gangster in the billiard hall, the half-crazy doctor in the medical hall...

She keeps going.

Finally, she stepped onto the clean road.She entered the tallest building, and...

Then there is a gunshot.

Everything is gone.

The golden light covered everything again.

【rustle……】

……

murmur.

The heavy noise seemed to ring directly in Zheng Zhuo's head.

It buzzes.Caused a needle-like pain.

Then, it gradually changed to another voice.

"...Good morning! Luodu! Are you all awake? Or are you still up? Oh, don't make complaints about this, I swear, this is no lower class joke!
How about let's listen to the news?

Big news, this is really big news!

Wiltforce is dead!You heard me right—the richest man in Los Angeles, Wilt Foss, is dead!Fifteen days after he was shot dead by a woman who broke into his office, he finally... I mean, 'still' died of his wounds!Let's take a guess at Fox's stock, will it fall directly below the lowest value this time? "

"……Uh……"

The headache felt like it was about to split in two.Zheng Zhuo covered his head and sat up from the bed.

He saw the LCD screen that hadn't turned off.On it, the host who looked like a punk was spitting all over the place.

Light came in from outside with dust, and Zheng Zhuo woke up in a very narrow room on a very narrow bed.

His head hurts and his throat is dry.He has no clothes on, and...

beside him.

The messy quilt moved.

Not that the bed is cramped.

Beside him, there is another person.

Zheng Zhuo's hands scratching his hair froze in the air.

"(Wait, this, shouldn't it be...)"

The people around him sat up with the quilt rolled up—Zheng Zhuo froze in place, not knowing whether he should watch or not—

He heard a sigh.

A snow-white hand stretched out from the side.

"...It's time for you to choose your birth."

Zheng Zhuo slightly turned his gaze away.The face of the young woman came into view.

Zheng Zhuo saw her and the card she was holding.

The card has a light green mosaic on it.

On the mosaic, a few lines of words appeared.
