Chapter 454: Go Out and Take a Bite

Li Qi no longer cared about the phantom's departure.

He turned his head and looked at the grocery store full of strange things, with deep thoughts and some disbelief in his eyes.

Because just now, this world really showed its true side to him.

Game.

The whole world is just a game.

It's just a game provided to some people.

It's just that for some reasons, those 'players' are gone, and the game can only evolve over and over again, starting from the beginning, and then clearing the 'data' and restarting at the predetermined ending.

If this is the case, then this game can continue for five versions when no one is playing.

That is, five consecutive civilization updates.

And when the five civilization updates are over, the game will...

"Stop the service."

Li Qi slowly uttered these two words.

He didn't know who owned the game in this world, but he knew very well that it was outrageous for a game that no one played to run five versions autonomously without maintenance.

And after five versions, it was reasonable that the game server could not bear the burden and would automatically stop the service.

But the premise of all this is that this world is really just a huge game.

But... is this world really a game?

Can games be so real?

Will there be lines of rules in the game that can only appear in reality?

Li Qi had countless questions in his mind, and his intuition told him that this should not be a game, after all, everything was so real.

He would bleed, and the people in this world would naturally rot when they died, instead of turning into a bunch of useless data and completely dissipating.

But if it was not a game, how would he explain the ID and health bar on his head?

"Where is the spirit of the world?"

Li Qi then remembered that the ID was the phantom of the spirit of the world.

If this world is really a super-large game, does it mean that this so-called spirit of the world is the general AI of this game?

Even if it is not, she must be closely related to this world.

I just don't know why she found me.

Moreover, it is not clear whether this world is a huge game...

While thinking, Li Qi turned his thoughts back to the original idea.

He felt like there was a ball of hair with thorns in his heart, rolling back and forth in a mess. If he didn't figure out whether this world was real or data, he would definitely not be satisfied.

Li Qi's curiosity was the curiosity of curiosity, and now... his curiosity had burst out to the point where he couldn't suppress it.

If he didn't figure this out, he would definitely not be satisfied even if he died!

But now he seemed to have no way to solve his curiosity. The spirit of the world disappeared for some reason, and he didn't know what to do except looking for ancient relics.

So now, continue to look for ancient relics?

Or...

Li Qi's eyes patrolled back and forth in the grocery store, examining the strange things on the shelves.

In fact, Li Qi now has one last way to determine the reality of this world.

That is to find a way to leave this world as a soul first, and then... don't suppress your instincts and take a bite at the barrier of the world.

Only by taking a bite can you discover the essence of the world through the talent you get.

For example, if you take a bite and Li Qi gets a talent related to data, then you can be sure that this world must be a super-large game.

And if after taking a bite, Li Qi's talent is other messy things, then it can be confirmed that this world is real, but it has been transformed into a game for some reason.

This confirmation method is very good.

But the problem is that once Li Qi leaves a world, he can't return to the previous world.

So he needs an anchor point, an anchor point that can pull him back from the outside even if he leaves this world.

Li Qi definitely doesn't have such an anchor point, but there may be one in the grocery store.

As a temporary store manager, although he does not have permanent use rights to these strange objects, he has temporary use rights.

Therefore, everything is ready, and the next thing is just a suitable strange object.

"Let me see, the soul-soothing bell... the prophecy crystal... the crown of the earth... huh? There are pictures here?"

Li Qi was looking for it on a shelf, and halfway through, he saw a vertical ink painting scroll with three fairies playing music.

Obviously, this scroll came from the Xiuxian civilization, and the three people on it were also refugees who entered it through the method of entering the painting.

Realizing that there were things from the Xiuxian civilization here, Li Qi looked at them one by one.

Immortal cultivation civilization, magic civilization, witch god civilization... and the unknown second civilization, Li Qi saw all the strange things from these civilizations.

At the same time, he also learned about the technology that the second civilization focused on.

"It turned out to be beast control..."

Li Qi held a book of "Beast Control Experience" and a look of realization appeared on his face.

The first civilization is the witch god civilization. It is the first real civilization in this game world after the "player" disappears, and it belongs only to the NPC.

Their system is based on their own physical strength. When the physical body is trained to an extreme, extraordinary abilities will be born.

They gather all the great power into themselves.

The second civilization that followed was mainly based on external objects. Their world was full of various magical beasts, which had various magical abilities.

They signed contracts with the beasts and let them fight for them.

The third civilization was the magic civilization. Everything in the beast-controlling civilization had disappeared, but they found the power of magic in a different way.

Then came the fourth civilization, the immortal cultivation civilization. The power of magic disappeared and was converted into the so-called spiritual energy of the immortal cultivators. The immortal cultivators also cultivated themselves and tried to fit in with the way of heaven.

The last fifth civilization, which is the modern civilization, Li Qi felt that this should not be a technological civilization, but a civilization of strange objects.

Strange objects are the power system of this version. By signing contracts with strange objects, mastering extraordinary powers, and gradually merging with strange objects in the end, and eliminating the impact of the price, this is the power that this civilization should master.

I just don’t know why strange objects did not come into contact with humans when the fire of civilization was born, but were suppressed all the time. It was not until the end of the version, when civilization was about to disappear, that strange objects began to be born.

But it was too late at this time.

Humans don’t have that much time to figure out how to use and apply strange objects, and they haven’t even figured out how to contract with strange objects, so they just face the end of the world in a muddle.

Please...you...collect_6Ⅰ9Ⅰ书Ⅰ吧 (六\\九\\\\书\\吧!)

Finally...

It becomes what it is now.

The above are all the information that Li Qi deduced from the various strange objects in the grocery store. He feels that his guess should be almost right.

Even if there are errors, there won’t be too many.

But if you really think like this, then the possibility that this world is a game is even smaller.

Everyone knows that if a game wants to operate for a long time, then the main power system will never change.

You can’t suddenly change the game system in a game with shooting as the main theme and convert shooting into martial arts.

Not to mention the incompatibility, old players will also feel uncomfortable and quit.

Instead of making such changes, it’s better to make a new game directly.

Unless this game is completely dead, it can only attract players through this change...

"Wait, isn't that true?"

Li Qi suddenly caught a blind spot.

If this is the game system's "self-rescue" strategy after judging that there are no players, it is not unreasonable.

You see, a game suddenly has no players, but this game has not been terminated by the government, but it is still running.

It's just that no one manages it.

If the AI ​​of this game has strong autonomy, it is very likely to judge that the existing game system is not attractive, so it will start to transform the version and create "pollution" to destroy all the power systems of the previous version.

Then start planning the gameplay method for the next version.

This cycle repeats, so the five civilizations inexplicably ushered in the end of the world...

Li Qi felt that his guess was a bit crazy, but this was the most likely guess now.

He rubbed his head, temporarily threw away these crazy ideas, and then set his sights on a certain strange object on the grocery shelf.

Because he had temporary NPC authority, Li Qi could see the name and ability of the strange object at a glance.

The strange object he was looking at at the moment was called [Strange Object·Devil Contract].

Strange Object·Devil Contract.

The main body was a piece of A4-sized kraft paper, which was blank without any words.

But as long as the two parties who drafted the contract touched their hands and drafted the contract with the devil, no matter how outrageous the content of the contract was, the devil would definitely fulfill it.

But the price of this strange object was also very serious.

Once the holder used it, no matter whether the contract was reached or breached, when all the terms on the contract were completed, the devil would appear and devour the soul of the contractor!

If you look at it this way, this contract seems too dangerous and people don’t even want to use it.

But... what if another strange object is added?

[Strange Object·Heart of Holy Light]

The main body is a silver heart-shaped necklace inlaid with sixteen white gems.

Its ability is to allow the holder to use any magic and ability of the Holy Light system, and has absolute suppression power over any negative energy and creatures.

The negative energy and creatures here include the so-called "devil" and other creatures.

With this Holy Light Heart, Li Qi can eliminate the cost of the devil's contract.

But the cost of the Holy Light Heart is also very serious.

It will make people "light fall".

That is, the soul will be closer to all the good qualities such as "kindness" and "love", and people will gradually become a real "Virgin Mary".

These two strange objects are undoubtedly from the magic world.

And they are perfectly matched. As long as you don't care about becoming a Virgin Mary, these two strange objects can almost be said to have no cost.

Li Qi doesn't want to become a Virgin Mary, but he can ignore the cost of the Holy Light Heart with a substitute doll.

So, now that the strange objects that should be found have been found, the next step is to find a way to temporarily leave the world and take a bite on the world barrier.

And now the first thing to do is to go back to the dream town, find a safe place, and sign the devil's contract.
