Infinity through different life

Chapter 375 Reaching the Top of the Scoreboard

There are no obstacles in the passage, you just need to grasp the direction and reverse the car at the fastest speed.

With a little distraction, Xu Jing controlled the driving of the car well, and then he couldn't help but look at the surrounding environment.

Through the green light curtain, he can clearly see the situation on the corresponding road above, but the players cannot see him, and the two sides seem to be in two different worlds.

The pop-up roadblocks, the curved road, the suspended solid iron ball, and the sudden appearance of Godzilla, all of them rose from the passage where he was located, and they were composed of data and came to the player in real objects.

This gave him the feeling that he was in a relatively high-dimensional space, and was attacking another space for dimensionality reduction.

But all of this has nothing to do with him. Although he started the latest, he had already caught up with the fastest players when he got on the expressway.

Boom!

The King Kong on the top of the Empire State Building jumped down and repeated the mission of chasing and intercepting the player, but it also couldn't see Xu Jing.

Xu Jing raised his head and watched helplessly as he passed the opponent and passed the test easily.

Bang!
At this moment, the passage not far behind him opened, and the ground of the highway above sank, and a ramp exit was built.

Beyond the exit is the end of the game.

He drove the car in reverse, jumped out, and entered the park gate at the end in an instant.

At this time, Jin Gang in front noticed something, turned around and let out an angry and unwilling roar.

Xu Jing was in a happy mood, and drove along the road behind the park gate for more than two hundred meters, and finally came to a circular square.

Large and small musical instruments are flying around, loud horns and strings are playing together, playing the soundtrack when Princess Leia honors Luke and Han in "Star Wars".

The fountain sculpture in the center of the square rotates and retracts into the ground, and then a golden oval pillar rises slowly.

Countless fallen leaves were swept by a gust of wind, forming a tornado three meters in front of Xu Jing. In the center of the tornado, a tall human mage dressed in gray robes who looked like Gandalf in "The Lord of the Rings" appeared out of thin air.

This is Halliday's character Arnock in the game, known as the all-knowing and omnipotent prophet.

"Good job, Jedi apprentice." He turned his back to the sun, like a god, looking down at the shorter Xu Jing, "You are the first to cross the finish line."

Xu Jing was disapproving and had no excitement about the pilgrimage. Halliday was already dead, and the person in front of him was just an advanced artificial intelligence.

He approached in a few steps, and said as he did to a mission NPC: "It's an honor to meet you, Prophet Arnock."

"It's my pleasure."

The music crescendoed, and Anok stretched out his right hand.

In the palm of his hand was the brass key, which countless people had been looking for for five years.

Xu Jing reached out and grabbed the key. The moment he got the key, the music faded away, but the prompt on his personal panel sounded, and he gained enough experience to advance several levels.

At the same time, the standings hanging above each planet flickered, and his character name (Andrew) appeared on the top slot.

"Go and get your clues." Arnock bent slightly, and pointed to the pillar raised in the center of the square. The top of the pillar opened automatically, and a scroll floated up, spinning continuously above it.

Xu Jing walked over, picked up the scroll, opened it and looked at it carefully.

"Creator who loathes his creation, hidden key, step not taken, retracement, escape from the past."

While reading this clue over and over again, he suddenly thought of a video he saw in the archives.

Halliday is not married, but he has met people he likes in his life and has dated them.

That woman, Karen Underwood, was one of Social Gaming's first employees.

Halliday dated Karen, and the two went to the movies together. After that, he wanted to invite Karen to a dance, but he was stupid by nature, but he didn't say anything, and he didn't have the courage to confess. In the end, it ended like this field date.

This piece of information comes from the chat between Halliday and Moreau. He felt very sorry for this date, so he shared his secret with his friends, which made Moreau, who wanted to hear the news, laugh out loud.

It's nothing if you just know this information, but everyone around the world knows that Moreau's wife's name is Karen, and they left the social gaming company after getting married.

When Xu Jing watched that video before, he had guessed that the real reason why Morrow left the company might not only be the conflict with Halliday’s gradual disagreement, but the biggest root cause might be Karen.

Halliday couldn't accept that his friend was with the woman he liked, and he was jealous, so he drove Moreau away.

There have been many gossips in the media, saying that Morrow left because of a complete break with Halliday. In addition, employees within the social game company broke the news. By the time Morrow resigned, Halliday and Morrow had not seen each other for a long time. communicated directly.

As for the speculations of the media, the two of them neither admitted nor denied.

"A step not taken..."

Xu Jing stared at the sentence on the scroll, and gradually came to an idea.

This is obviously, talking about Halliday's regret. After watching the movie, he wanted to invite Karen to dance, but he didn't say it in the end. This step made him miss the opportunity to confess his love and kiss his beloved, and became A lifetime of injuries, and finally broke with the only friend because of it.

"Going back the same way... Is it to make up for regrets?"

Xu Jing's thoughts became clearer. Regardless of whether it was true or not, he decided to follow this clue to investigate first, so it seems that he has to go to the archives first.

The movies collected by Halliday in the archives are not for watching, but allow players to directly enter the movies, participate in the plot, and even change the plot.

Xu Jing is very familiar with this routine, and it is very similar to the system functions he owns.

He planned to find the movie that Halliday and Karen watched on a date first, enter it, and see if there was any mystery hidden in it.

After all, the movies in the archives were recreated by Halliday himself, writing codes. It was like a small world, and it was too easy for him to change or hide something.

After Xu Jing made his decision, he immediately exited the dungeon and returned to the Teleportation Temple.

As soon as he came back, he found that his mails in the oasis had completely exploded, even more violent than the previous mail explosions on his blog. Almost every second, the number was growing crazily in the thousands.

Turn on the internet again, and sure enough, he has become a household name.

News headlines are full of his name, such as "Mysterious man Andrew makes history", "The brass key can hold: Andrew", "No.1 in the standings, he is Andrew"...

The media went crazy, and so did the players, desperately sending him emails. This was the only way they could possibly contact Xu Jing.
