Feeling a sudden increase in warmth and weight on top of her head, Bronya was startled at first, and then she felt an indescribable sense of warmth and care.

"It's so late, why don't you go to bed?"

Bronya was silent for a moment, and then whispered: "...I feel a little anxious about the future."

After all, I have never gone to explore the palace. Bronya's feeling of "urgent need" can be understood in Zhenye's heart.

In the game Sex and the City, as long as the player does not explore the palace and deliberately delays the progress, his friends will send messages every day urging the protagonist to explore the palace - this is the same truth.

"If you can't sleep..."

Zhenye continued to stroke the other party's slightly fragrant silver thread with the power of God's hand. Thinking of the 'related plot', his eyes brightened and he suggested casually: "If you can't sleep, come with me for a walk." ?”

Chapter 37 To Bronya, enlighten me

Uncharacteristically, Zhenye did not wear the mask of the female pope to 'increase the favorability of the Arcana binder with the corresponding attribute towards you', but instead put on a papal mask.

The most powerful personality mask of the Pope [Yellow Dragon] is synthesized from the four sacred beasts of China: Qinglong, White Tiger, Suzaku and Xuanwu.

What should the protagonist do if he falls into a psychological problem?Of course it was the 'Pope's turn to take action.

In Sex and the City, the protagonist's adopter, [Pope] Sakura Sojiro, often provides guidance when the protagonist falls into psychological problems.

This pope is the guardian of the protagonist.At the same time, he is also one of the protagonist's best and most profound helpers.

He and Bronya walked together in the deserted streets. Bronya's eyes walking beside him seemed a little hollow.

She looked at the dark 'dome of the underground world' high above, and suddenly spoke softly with an inexplicable admiration or a lyrical tone.

"It's really quiet..."

"At night, the streets of Panyan Town are ethereal and silent. Walking on these streets, it feels like you and I are the only two people left in the world."

Zhenye looked at the dome with her: "Do you often walk like this?"

【~???~】

"Walking alone in the night, and then looking up at the 'dome' that is either covered by dark clouds or invisible to the sky... I always feel that this kind of thing has happened in the distant past."

"Is life always like this... being bound and oppressed by the prison called life, and then fantasizing about the unreachable starry sky in a world where the sun cannot be seen?"

Zhenye spoke softly, with a bit of emotion: "Life is always like this. Everyone is imprisoned, big or small, and everyone is no exception."

"Then why are we alive? Living so hard?"

This is a very emotional question. Even people with zero emotional intelligence know very well that this question should never be answered with "your DNA is eager to record information and pass it on."

"Everyone has a different opinion on this issue. Some people will tell you, 'Life is as bright as a song.'"

"Some people would also say that people live for the sake of living itself, rather than for anything else. (Yu Hua, "Living")."

"Some people say that it is the desire for love, the pursuit of knowledge, and the unstoppable sympathy for human suffering. (Russell)"

"In my opinion, such a question has no meaning in asking or answering. Because when you ask this question, you never expect to get a satisfactory answer from anyone."

"Rather than asking others, it's better to say...asking myself."

Zhen Ye spoke earnestly and quietly: "Imagine that you struggled with all your strength to climb out of the mud pit... After experiencing such suffering, are you still willing to watch others fall into the mud pit?"

Bronya was slightly taken aback.

Zhenye continued: "The so-called [protection] is not obtained by blind patience and concession. Protection must be practiced with extreme blood and tears."

"This is a war that cannot be lost. This is a war that never changes. If you sacrifice your life to enter this war, what you have to do is not to just tolerate and retreat."

"But never retreat and never compromise."

"..."

【~???~】

Before they knew it, the two of them had arrived at Rivet Town, and saw the town that had become desolate and ruined due to cracking and erosion.

Zhen Ye motioned to Bronya to look at the tall buildings in the distance.

"Did you see it? That was Dr. Natasha's former orphanage. I heard Dr. Natasha say that before the fall of Rivet Town, this was the 'promised land' where children lived."

"That house was donated by a wealthy businessman in the past. Bronya, do you know what the wealthy businessman's mood and thoughts were when he donated it?"

Bronya's lips opened and closed, and after a long while, she tentatively spit out an extremely dry word: "...hope?"

"Ah……"

"Although it's a bit 'old-fashioned', the current situation may be like this."

Zhenye raised his hand and created a light curtain, playing a video from "Ultraman Tega" to Bronya live.

"Stop! What did you do to those children!"

"Children don't need to dream. Until they grow up, they can be manipulated like dolls and toys."

"I took all his dreams..."

"No! Give him his dream! That child's dream belongs only to him!"

Zhenye recovered the light screen and said seriously: "For that wealthy businessman, children are hope, the future, and 'dreams.' Children can't live without dreams... Beloberg can't live without a future."

Bronya: "..."

She focused on the various recreational facilities and buildings in the orphanage that had not been abandoned for a long time and seemed to have been regularly maintained before.

She wanted to say something, but Zhenye took the initiative to change the topic.He pointed in the direction of the swing and said meaningfully: "Don't you...don't you think that thing looks familiar?"

Bronya: "...?"

She looked in the direction Zhenye pointed, and immediately saw an extremely strange 'snow globe' toy.

In the snow globe, there is a moment that gives Bronya a strong sense of déjà vu: the snowy owl is circling over the snow, looking for the best opportunity to hunt rabbits.

She felt like a flash of lightning flashed through her mind, and without caring about anything else for a moment, she went straight to the snow globe, picked up the toy that seemed to have been worn for a long time, and examined it carefully.

"This is... something from my childhood."

Memories flooded in like a flood.

Bronya thought of her past, she murmured to herself and began to reminisce.

"I used to live here - just before the Builders took me away and Lord Cocolia adopted me - I lived here! I... am from the Lower Zone."

"I still remember... I was selected here and then brought to the ground..."

"The chosen child must completely say goodbye to the past..."

"I……"

Bronya looked a little hollow.

At this moment, a hand pressed on the top of her head with a 'pop' sound.This hand with weight and warmth instantly dispelled the confusion deep in her heart.

"Self-pity will not solve any problem. If you really want to preserve the entire Belloberg...then don't panic, don't doubt."

She was silent for a moment, and suddenly her eyes became clear as she struggled out of her past memories: "You're right."

What's the point of sitting here crying and shouting that I can't do anything?

For a moment, she was very grateful to the young man in front of her who had dragged her out of the quagmire and led her onto the right path.

【~???~】

[I feel Bronya’s dependence...]

[Bronya Rand Tarot Card-The Female Pope★3→4]

"If you are uneasy, let me tell you a story."

Zhenye snapped his fingers and played the song "i believe" that he remembered.

"Let me tell you a story...Sex and the City."

……

"...In the end. Even if it's painful, even if the illusory reality is beautiful."

"The Phantom Thieves who live in Sex and the City still choose to break through the false reality."

"No matter how bitter life is, it is the path they choose after all. They will not regret it and continue on this path after breaking the unchanging reality."

"It seems like a beautiful illusion, but the same goal leads to destruction... The group of Phantom Thieves active in Sex and the City chose to break it. If it were you, what choice would you make?"

Bronya: "..."

If it were her, she would probably choose to indulge in that seemingly beautiful dream.

It is also the 'palace of the World Tree', which also hides ignorance and creates the so-called beautiful Garden of Eden... Those noble ones finally chose to break this illusion.

[Brave and fearless rebel].

This group of people has implemented this concept to the end.

What an amazing awareness, what a perseverance of willpower.

Bronya put away her snow globe.Her voice was very soft, as if it could disappear into the night at any time.But this voice was more firm than ever, clearly proving her determination.

"I know what I should do."

Chapter 38 Black, really black!

After sending Bronya back, Zhenye began to try to communicate with the system.

"System, can you tell me a little bit about the history of 'System'?"

(Well~ since it is the request of the host, then this system will reluctantly talk about it!)

(First of all, there is the relationship between the system and the host. Of course, the host and the system have a 'mutually beneficial' relationship... However, the way of mutual benefit will be different in different systems.)

Zhen Ye just asked casually, but he didn't expect the system to actually speak.

"Is this... allowed to be said?"

(Of course you can.)

(The main reason why most hosts are time travelers is because the time travelers are not from this world. They can cause a greater butterfly effect on the entire world...)

(The so-called "main tasks" and side tasks completed by the protagonist in this world are actually interactive behaviors that affect important supporting characters in the original world, and even the protagonist.)

(And this has produced immeasurable changes to the entire world. For this reason, the so-called "will of heaven", or the will of the universe, Alaya consciousness, etc., will stand up and repair the loopholes created by the system.)

(At this time, the system will take the opportunity to plunder the source of the world that was missed by the world will to repair the loopholes. The system will digest more than 99% of these benefits, and the remaining less than 1% will be thrown to the host as a reward, allowing The host is grateful.)

Zhenye: "...ah?"

So...is this how the system works?It turns out that the reward received by the host for completing the task is even less than 1%?

Black, really black!

(Host, are you surprised? In fact, being able to give 1% is already considered a great act of kindness by the system. The most common operation is to give a reward of one thousandth or even one ten thousandth.)

Zhenye: "..."

He took a deep breath and repeated Da Shi's classic sayings in his heart.

(Then, there is the order of the system’s fortunes. At present, we have summarized a few pretty good development routines here. I will talk about it casually, and you, the host, just listen to it.)

(Generally, the development path of the decent system is as follows: first go to the entertainment literature, and use the method of literary copying to make the traveler protagonist deviate from the world line of a certain regular world to earn the first pot of gold.)

Zhenye blinked and nodded curiously.

For example, if Jay Chou's world does not exist and "Blue and White Porcelain" appears, this is indeed a shift in the world line... If it is true as the system says, the world consciousness will definitely stand up to repair it, and then it will be regarded as the sixth system. They draw a wave of blood.

The cultural and entertainment system is in its infancy, and it is also the oldest stage of the system.

Use various songs, movies, scripts, etc. to send the host away, and then obtain a large amount of the source of the world.

(Then, the next choice is usually the urban literary world. This kind of world usually has ancient martial arts, supernatural powers, low-level immortality routines and other super powers that are outside the urban literary world. The overall world system is very dangerous. Low, very suitable for enriching the resource library.)

There seems to be nothing wrong with it.After all, with all the urban writing, it is always easy to stray into things like cultivating immortals and superpowers.In the later stage of development, the host will inevitably face some kind of supernatural being or immortal cultivator.

When the time comes to kill people and seize treasures, the host will benefit, and the system will be able to enrich its own mall.

(After that, you have to decide your official development direction. If you are cultivating immortals, you have to gradually move up from the lower system of 'cultivation', and finally roll all the way to the prehistoric world.)

(For example, those well-known ancestors in the prehistoric world have long been eliminated by the system bosses who stand at the top of the pyramid.)

(This system will talk about the evolution of the "complex routine flow" that I am familiar with. Generally speaking, this kind of routine will first go to some mixed daily comics.)
