Quick Transmigration: Still Life Fairy

Chapter 77 The Little Loli's Immortal Guardian

In Dragon Mall, players are dying everywhere for inexplicable reasons and disappearing in a flash of light. The resurrection points are full, and the streets are somewhat deserted.

It was morning, and in the game, unless the player's character had cultivated to the point of abstaining from grains, they still needed to eat. Every now and then, a few players with lower cultivation levels would walk into the inn and die not long after. The only noticeable people in the entire inn were a few NPCs who seemed to be doing well.

In fact, this disaster not only affected the players, but also a small number of NPCs in the Dragon Mall. However, perhaps because NPCs only have one life, although they experienced the same situation as the players, they did not die, but continued to live and kick around despite their injuries.

Yu Liu closed her eyes, and the entire Second World immediately appeared in her mind. She focused her attention on Dragon Mall, and an aerial view of the entire city immediately magnified in her mind. She could clearly see that the city was completely shrouded in the white light of death, with nearly a thousand players dying every second. The white light was strongest on the street where the respawn point was located. The respawn point was blocked by a group of players. As the number of people increased, some of them could not leave and died directly around the respawn point before coming out through it, causing considerable chaos.

"What exactly is going on?" Yu Liu pondered, stroking her chin. She then reviewed all the settings in this world. Although the Second World had broken free from Dao Dao's control, everything here, including its future development, was programmed by Dao Dao. Naturally, she had a record of everything that happened in this world.

"Massive player deaths...massive NPC injuries...nothing?!"

Yu Liu opened her eyes, and green code flashed before her eyes. She quickly reviewed the entire game's data from beginning to end, but found absolutely no information about the mass player deaths that had occurred in the Dragon Mall. This meant that the current situation in the Dragon Mall was outside the game's established rules.

"What's wrong with this game?" Yu Liu wondered even more. "It's bad enough that it's out of control, but now it's broken free of its settings and started developing on its own. Daodao hasn't received a single message from it. So... is Daodao really the medium through which the game is played?"

Thinking she had grasped the crux of the matter, Yu Liu smiled smugly, "There must have been something that Daodao doesn't know about. Why don't we investigate it thoroughly?"

"What is the baby thinking? He looks so happy."

A deep male voice sounded in Yu Liu's ear, startling her completely.

"Wow!"

Yu Liu shuddered, her face instantly contorting into a grimace. "Zi Yu, don't you know that scaring someone can kill them?!"

She clutched her chest, looking utterly terrified. Ziyu paused for a moment, then hesitantly reached out and hugged Yuliu: "Baby... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you..."

Yu Liu had only said it casually and never expected Zi Yu to take it so seriously. She patted her chest twice, breathed a sigh of relief, and hugged Zi Yu back, saying, "Don't worry, I'm fine. I was just really startled by your sudden voice. Just don't do that next time."

It inexplicably feels like I'm comforting a child...

Ziyu's eyes darkened slightly. He hugged Yuliu tightly without making a sound, and then casually let go.

"Oh, by the way, I ordered something to eat. Would you like some?"

In the Second World, strength reigns supreme; everything here is decided by power. When Yu Liu created her body, she naturally wouldn't give her a novice's body. Her current cultivation level is definitely comparable to the ancestors of those major sects. She can actually go without eating, but she doesn't know if it was the rabbit that Zi Yu roasted yesterday that whetted her appetite. As soon as she saw the various dishes on the table next to her, her stomach started to feel uncomfortable, and she couldn't get relief without eating something.

"it is good."

Ziyu glanced at the sumptuous dishes on the table, smiled and sat down. He was a free spirit and didn't care much about food, but he would occasionally eat something when he was hungry, like the rabbit he roasted for himself yesterday.

"Ziyu, do you know what's wrong with those people outside? Why are they keeping dying? And I think I just saw someone who was already dead come back to life—"

Yu Liu tapped the rim of the bowl in front of her with her chopsticks, making a soft clinking sound. She asked Zi Yu with some doubt, since the other party had profound cultivation and should be able to see something. In order to avoid revealing anything that should not be revealed, she added a last sentence.

Following Yu Liu's gaze, Zi Yu saw the players dying one after another outside. A hint of pleasure flashed in his eyes, but he frowned as if puzzled: "I can't figure out what's wrong with them. It looks like they've been cursed. But don't worry, baby, these are all adventurers. Adventurers can't die. They'll come back to life in a little while."

Although you won't die, you'll lose experience, stats, and equipment! Yu Liu thought to herself with a haughty and aloof self, then remembered that Zi Yu was an NPC and had no idea about players, so she felt relieved.

After the initial relief came a headache. Yu Liu suddenly realized a problem. In the modern world, she had read many novels about holographic online games with her dream goal, so she was quite knowledgeable about them. Plus, now that she was the game's mastermind, Daodao, her understanding of games was quite profound. However, novels are written to entertain the masses, and games are made to entertain the masses; they both consider the player's perspective. Having experienced all this, Yu Liu, even though she was now using the identity of an NPC, still mostly considered things from the player's perspective. But Zi Yu was different. This renowned Xunyang Immortal in the game was a true NPC. He didn't know what players were, only that they were a group of resurrected adventurers. So, when considering things, he would subconsciously stand on the NPC's side, and his viewpoint was completely different.

Yu Liu frowned in distress. Thinking about it this way, she realized that there might be a long generation gap between herself and the desires and goals of this world, separated by a world. The desires and goals of this world were inclined towards the virtual world, while she herself was in the real world.

Yu Liu: "What should I do if I suddenly feel an even heavier burden on my shoulders? QAQ!"

How can two people with different thought processes communicate?
