Chapter 164 The World's Request for Help

The bow-tie-shaped voice changer has a built-in translation function, and you only need to pair it with headphones with the same function to communicate across species.

Zhou Yuan had previously purchased an item called [Real-time Translation Headphones] in the system mall. After wearing it, the language of any species sounded like his own native language, and even the accent could be copied.

"You came in from the demon territory, so who are you?" Cai Wen stared at Zhou Yuan with hostility.

"Then do you think there is any demonic energy in me?"

Zhou Yuan spread his arms, then lowered his voice and whispered, "Actually, I'm an undercover agent."

"Who would believe you?" Cai Wen said without any intention of believing it. "You have a very strong dark aura. You are definitely not a good person."

"You are stereotyping Gao Neng and discriminating against him."

Zhou Yuan said dissatisfiedly, "Who says that shadow-type people are necessarily bad people? And do you think I have harmed these flowers and plants along the way?"

Caiwen fell silent, seemingly communicating with his own kind through the vast plant network.

After a moment, it lowered its fist: "The Queen wants to see you."

"Queen?" Zhou Yuan was stunned.

Ahead, in the lush forest, countless plants glowing with sacred light seemed to have received some kind of instruction and automatically lined up on both sides, opening up a path leading directly to an audience deep in the forest.

Zhou Yuan pondered for a moment, then quickly walked forward along the road.

Soon, he arrived at the core area of ​​the plant paradise, which was filled with brilliant holy light and was as beautiful as the back garden of the gods in mythology.

The evolution speed of plants in the core area is even more ferocious. The aura emitted by many plants makes Zhou Yuan feel frightened. Moreover, their appearance is no longer limited to plant shapes. Human and animal shapes are everywhere, and some are even evolving into mechanical shapes.

Zhou Yuan walked forward, the gorgeous sea of ​​plants automatically gave way, and he passed through countless guards. At the end of the road, he saw the queen of plants.

A smiling sunflower.

[LV100 Holy Sunflower]

Zhou Yuan was stunned. This was really like Plants vs. Zombies.

The sunflower swayed, emitting a sacred glow like the sun, illuminating the entire plant paradise. It looked at Zhou Yuan and whispered:

"I sense the princess is with you."

Zhou Yuan was stunned.

Sunflower explained: "The scholars of the Control Bureau integrated the relics of the goddess into me when they created me, so I can sense Princess Amy who has the same power. I didn't expect you to be able to rescue her from the Demon King's Castle."

"Just luck. So can you please let me go? The sooner I leave, the sooner this will be over."

Although Zhou Yuan rescued the princess, the mission was not marked as completed, which means that they are still in danger. If the devil finds out that the Princess Amy in the tower is a fake, the consequences will be disastrous.

In the silence, the sunflower uttered a syllable:
"No."

As soon as he finished speaking, a holy light suddenly burst out from the sunflower. The next second, a figure emerged. It was the real Princess Amy who was supposed to be in the independent space!
Zhou Yuan couldn't help but frown. What did it want to do?
Princess Amy looked around in confusion. What were these strange plants?

Then, she inexplicably felt something in her heart, a call and resonance from her blood and even from the depths of her soul. She turned her gaze towards Sunflower:

"You are……"

At this time, a little golden sun jumped out from the sunflower and merged into Princess Amy's body. She felt a warm power emerging in her body.

"Your Highness, I will return the power left by the goddess to you, hoping to help you awaken soon."

Sunflower said in a deep voice, "As long as you successfully awaken the power of the goddess, you can easily kill the demon king. By then, perhaps our world can still be saved and we don't have to accept the fate of inevitable destruction."

Perhaps because of the same power, Princess Amy could understand Sunflower's words without the help of a translator. She was a little surprised: "What is the fate of inevitable destruction?"

A small sun popped out of the sunflower again and merged into Princess Amy's body. After a moment, she looked at Zhou Yuan with eyes full of fear and shock:

"Is all this true? Our world... is just a game? I'm just an NPC character in the game?"

Zhou Yuan frowned. What was going on? Wouldn’t the game NPCs be affected by unknown forces and thus forced to ignore these things? But the previous Yi Yi was also an NPC who escaped the world’s correction power, which meant that variables existed. Was it the influence of the goddess’ power?

Then, the Eye of Identification gave the answer.

[There is an outsider in Princess Amy's body. Because she has done too many things that violate her character, she is forced to correct herself by the world's power. But in a sense, she is not an NPC, so she will not be corrected after knowing these things.

Of course, even if there is no outsider to replace Princess Amy, she can still ignore the power of correction of the world after obtaining the power of the goddess. 】

Uh... so this guy is an outsider. Under the influence of the power of correction, he behaves exactly like Princess Amy, but his soul is actually another person... Does this make him schizophrenic?
Zhou Yuan pulled back his thoughts and did not answer Princess Amy's question. Instead, he looked at Sunflower: "You said that you were created by the Control Bureau, but what you are doing now is against the interests of the Control Bureau."

Helping Princess Amy awaken her divine power is not a good decision. You know, the Demon King is here for this.

"Indeed, I don't deny that, but I have to do it."

Sunflower said seriously, "I may be the highest-level plant in this world, no doubt about it, so I can clearly feel the pulse of life from this world itself.

It's saying, 'Please save me.'"

"..."

Zhou Yuan remained silent, did not speak, and continued to listen.

"It was not our intention to destroy your world. We are actually innocent victims. We had no choice from the beginning to the end.

To save your world, we must destroy our world, which is actually very unfair to us.

Of course, I am a creation of the Control Bureau. From my individual perspective, I am not qualified to say this, but what I represent at this moment is the natural system and countless lives of this world, and even the will of the world at a more macro level. "

The sunflowers whisper the wail of the world's will:
“I’m making a plea here, asking you to lend a hand.

Life is so beautiful, I don't want to die like this.

Please, save me."

In silence, Zhou Yuan shook his head and sighed: "You have to tell this to the Control Bureau."

"I have completed negotiations with the Bureau."

Sunflower replied, "About fifteen seconds ago, half of the temporary decision-makers of the Control Bureau voted to save the world. Now, if you nod, the Control Bureau will change its strategy, and our world may be saved."

"I?"

Zhou Yuan couldn't help but laugh, "How can I be so capable?"

"You do, because you have the princess in your hands."

Sunflower said, "You can choose to take her away and end this quickly. Or you can take her to stay and let me teach the princess to develop her divine power. When she obtains the power of the goddess, our world may be saved."

Happy two choices.

Princess Amy gave him a hopeful look. She certainly wanted to save the world and all the lives here.

Zhou Yuan didn't think for long at all, and nodded, "Then stay." Princess Amy was stunned, and then she was surprised: "Really?"

"real."

"Thank you!" Princess Amy bowed deeply to him.

Zhou Yuan chuckled: "You're welcome. I have a friend whose situation is similar to yours. She was once a character in a story, and then her home was destroyed... I think if it were her, she would definitely lend a helping hand to you."

"That person must be very important to you." Sunflower shook her body, "Are you doing this for her?"

Zhou Yuan scratched his hair and said, "Half and half. I don't want to watch a living world being destroyed like this, so I have to at least give it a try."

"You are a good person."

The sunflower swayed happily, "Princess, let's start the class without further delay!"

And at this moment, the back of Zhou Yuan's left hand felt slightly hot.

The mark of the black crow flashed by.

His eyes widened in shock, because the divine power that had almost dried up was growing rapidly!
This... this is the money transferred from the number one lady on the list!

Temporary Control Bureau, Decision-making Room.

"...Please, save me."

The sunflowers planted in the pots conveyed the wailing of the world's will, which gave everyone a headache.

——The world is calling out to them for help.

If we hadn't received the news that the princess had been rescued, we might have simply ignored it. We wouldn't have the time to care about you when our home is almost lost. But now there is another better plan in front of us. If we continue to ignore it, our conscience will hurt.

"What do you think?" Wang Dong, director of the Xinhu Control Bureau, asked for everyone's opinions.

"Save him." Zhao Junlang said nonchalantly, "Can you really just sit there and watch?"

"Please stop being so kind. Our world is in danger, and you still have the mind to save other people's world?" Some people also held opposing opinions.

"Just give it a try. If it doesn't work, then it doesn't work. At least you can feel at ease with it." Zhao Junlang shrugged.

"If you try this, you may lose countless lives! How can you handle abnormal events so lightly? If you feel guilty about it, let me take charge. I feel guilty about it!"

"It's not the most critical situation yet. It doesn't hurt to give it a try. If you operate well, maybe you can get a perfect ending."

Everyone was arguing fiercely, and finally, the director of the Temporary Control Bureau proposed to decide the next strategy by voting.

The result is half and half.

Half of the people thought that it would be best to let Zhou Yuan take the princess away immediately, end this abnormal incident as soon as possible, and reduce unnecessary losses and casualties.

The other half thought that the princess could be trained to awaken the power of the goddess. As a local deity, the ancient goddess might be able to save the world.

Having a new dimension to explore is not a bad thing for the real world, and it can also be used as an opportunity to promote the Bureau.

Even if it fails in the end, there is another option, which is to destroy the world.

"Wang Zhen chose to take the princess with him."

Someone brought the latest news from Sunflower.

"One more vote, then let's start the rescue plan." Zhao Junlang snapped his fingers, "Waiter, give me a cup of coffee, I'm going to work overtime from now on."

"Who the hell is the waiter? If you want a drink, pour it yourself!" the staff member next to him shouted angrily.

Plant paradise.

evening.

Zhou Yuan was sitting in the open space barbecuing, while Princess Amy was standing beside him, watching eagerly, like a kitten waiting to be fed.

A day of training was a painful torture for this pampered princess, but when she thought that the fate of the entire world rested on her shoulders, she had to endure it no matter how hard or tiring it was.

Amy drew circles on the ground with a stick and chatted, "Come to think of it, I haven't asked you what your name is yet."

"Wang Zhen."

"How old are you? I'm only eighteen."

"20."

"Are you a professional adventurer? No... you are from another world. What was your original job? What are your hobbies?"

Zhou Yuan cast a suspicious look: "Are you checking the household registration? Why are you asking these questions?"

Princess Amy lowered her head and said shyly, "I just want to get to know you better in advance."

“You…what are you doing…?” Zhou Yuan raised his eyebrows.

Amy bit her lip, her cheeks flushed with shame: "I just saw on my phone that my father has issued a bounty order. Whoever can rescue me will be betrothed to him..."

There is a special plant here that can receive network signals. This is how Princess Amy connected to WiFi.

"..."

Zhou Yuan was speechless. "I'm not here for this. Besides, arranged marriage is not advisable, sister. You should choose someone you like instead of accepting the arrangement of your elders."

"But...I still like you very much." Amy said softly.

The "Wang Zhen" leather suit is very good-looking. Although it is not as good as the original body, it can be said that everyone loves it. He is so handsome that countless people fall in love with him at first sight. Even capturing a princess who sees handsome men and beautiful women every day is no problem at all.

This is like the plot in a classic novel, where a beautiful woman would say to her handsome benefactor that she is willing to marry him; but if the benefactor is ugly, she would say that she would repay him even if she had to work like a slave in the next life.

The current situation clearly belongs to the former.

"I'm sorry, I have someone I like." Zhou Yuan refused.

"what?"

Amy was struck by lightning, "Am I not better than her?"

Zhou Yuan looked him up and down and said, "Indeed."

Amy opened her mouth, then lowered her head in frustration:
"Are you disgusted by my figure? You are just like what people say on the Internet, you like plump big ladies."

"???"

Zhou Yuan almost vomited blood.

Then, a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back. Oh no, the reality show video must have been leaked!

Going to send it!
