Chapter 255

Ever since the Infinite Loop Adventure's closed beta test, the holographic game took over the world at an astonishing speed. It became the hottest topic of the day and harvested a large number of players.

Under the impact of holographic games, traditional games became less attractive. What's more, this holographic game had a rich variety of gameplay and the game's graphics were almost the same as reality. Not to mention, the Infinite Loop Adventure was actually connected to everyone's brain waves. It was easy to control. Therefore, the major game companies in the world were facing a big crisis. It was said that they were already working overtime to develop a similar holographic game.

The crowd that was pulled in to watch the wedding by the two happy husbands also left with a mouthful of dog food.

At the same time, the resurrected NPCs began their working lives in the Infinite Loop to accumulate enough work hours for themselves to return to reality.

Fortunately, Zong Jiu was not that harsh after becoming a capitalist. Therefore, about half a year after the Infinite Loop Adventure was put into operation, Xu Sen successfully accumulated enough energy to exchange for permission to leave the Infinite Loop.

Because Xu Sen's performance was good, he was allowed to apply for an NPC residency permit. Not only did he not have to erase his memory, but he also did not have to return to the real world to be a social worker. He could use the holographic helmet to work in the Infinite Loop. On the other hand, the Infinite Loop would also use the operating expenses of the holographic game to pay him a salary.

This was indeed a way out. For this reason, Zong Jiu adopted the suggestions of the survivors and set up a point system in the game. As long as they completed enough levels, they could use the points to exchange for their memories in the Infinite Loop. Of course, the price was that they would become exclusive workers in the Infinite Loop.

With so much cheap labor, it was wonderful to make use of it!

After a while, the resurrected NPCs in the Infinite Loop had exchanged for the permission to return to the real world. Even the slowest one planned to leave today.

Yes, it was Zhuge An.

However, Zhuge An did not plan to apply for an NPC residency permit like Xu Sen. It seemed like he wanted to return to the real world with peace of mind.

For this reason, Zong Jiu specifically talked to him.

Zong Jiu was a little surprised by his decision, "You don't want to keep your memories in the Infinite Loop?"

Zhuge An shook his head, "My mission has been completed."

What did he have to continue?

What kept him alive was nothing more than the last wishes of the deceased. Those promises made when he was young and frivolous, and in the end, he would use the rest of his life to repay them under the foundation of the bones.

But at the end of the day, as a person, he no longer had any reason to live. And now, since the wish and goal that he had persisted for so many years had been achieved, there was no more reason for him to continue living.

Actually, dying in the final battle was enough. That was good enough. It was in line with Zhuge An's plan for himself. Such a death would not only restrict Magician's footsteps, it would also be a grand finale.

Therefore, Zhuge An's first reaction after waking up from the eternal silence of death was shock.

He was surprised that Magician had chosen such a path. This path was better than he had expected. It was even better than what he had expected. There was no better ending than this.

After all, Zhuge An had never considered the possibility of him coming back to life. Hence, he was at a loss.

But now that he was resurrected, he had to find something to do.

Before entering the Infinite Loop, Zhuge An was a national secret research genius. He was high-spirited and talented. But not long after a few important experimental projects fell into his hands, he was pulled into the Infinite Loop.

Now that the dust had settled, it was time for him to go back and continue his research.

"The Infinite Loop doesn't need me anymore. This place belongs to you."

Zhuge An said. The robe on his body made him look even more slender. There was no expression on his face. It was impossible to tell if he was happy or angry.

"But that's just Guiguzi's mission, not Zhuge An's."

Zong Jiu said, "I respect your decision. But if you feel tired from your research, it's not a bad idea to play games occasionally to relax. What do you think? "

The black haired man revealed a faint smile.

Strangely, it wasn't Zhuge An's usual cold smile. It wasn't sarcastic either. It was gratifying, but it made one's scalp tighten.

He looked deeply at the white haired Magician. His finger suddenly moved away from the game button.

"You're right."

Zhuge An narrowed his eyes, "What does Guiguzi have to do with me, Zhuge An?"

Zong Jiu: "…"

That's right, but why did you accept my advice so quickly!

"If that's the case, then I'll reluctantly stay. Since the Infinite Loop doesn't have a main system, with your and No.6's skill level, you might be able to completely destroy the Infinite Loop. "

Zong Jiu: "???"

Forget it.

Although his words weren't very nice, at least he managed to convince this cheap labor to stay.

Since he was willing to stay, Zong Jiu waved his hand and gave Zhuge An the authority to manage the NPC. He also expressed his eagerness like a leader meeting his subordinate. He said a lot of things that he hoped the other party would actively build the Infinite Loop and build a beautiful home.

But for some reason, when Zong Jiu returned to his room, he thought about it carefully and felt that he was the one who was fooled.

Zhuge An had changed his body. His appearance was completely different from Guiguzi. Even if he returned to the real world, he wouldn't be able to take over his original identity as Guiguzi.

Therefore, even though Zhuge An had forced him for a long time, he had no intention of going back!

Damn it, this treacherous guy. No wonder all the S-class were so secretive about him. When the crowd found out that he was a good person, they were so shocked that they were speechless. He was a three-faced spy in the Cursed Mask dungeon. Good lord, his nature hasn't changed.

In fact, Zhuge An didn't plan to go back.

He was a researcher in the real world who had signed a confidentiality agreement. His interpersonal relationships were so simple that it was pitiful. Plus, he had spent so many years in the Infinite Loop and even experienced death once. So he was different from others. He only had that desire to go back to the real world.

Compared to going back, he was more interested in the higher dimension where the main system went. He wanted to do something.

But Zhuge An's business ability was too strong. He alone held up half the sky.

So Zong Jiu simply clapped his hands and threw the matter aside. He pulled the Devil and ran to the real world to play.

When the two of them weren't mortal enemies, it was a disaster when they got together.

When one started a fire, the other would add more firewood, afraid that the fire wouldn't be strong enough.

Zhuge An wasn't wrong. Zong Jiu and the Devil were both pure hedonists. Under their joint disaster, the future of the Infinite Loop was uncertain.

But this time, it was a little awkward. Because it was his first time controlling, Zong Jiu got the coordinates of the real world's landing point wrong.

According to his original plan, Zong Jiu wanted to go and see Xu Su.

After Xu Su graduated, she worked in the Infinite Loop with Xu Sen.

Perhaps many survivors and trainees didn't expect that they would be forced to carry a small backpack back here after working so hard to escape from the Infinite Loop.

So when he teleported, he and the Devil landed at different coordinates in the real world.

After realizing that he had teleported wrongly, Zong Jiu didn't react immediately.

Since he was still wearing the ring, he just needed to let the Devil find him.

But it had to be said that the situation in front of him was beyond his expectations.

He landed in a ball full of toasts. Around him were guests wearing evening gowns and holding champagne glasses.

Originally, Zong Jiu wanted to leave quickly after walking out of the shadows, but he didn't expect people around him to notice him.

"He looks familiar. Wait a minute! Isn't that the missing Young Master of the Z family? "

After the first person exclaimed, the rest of the people took it for granted.

"This unforgettable appearance, hair color, and eye color. Yes, it's definitely the Young Master."

"Speaking of which, this is strange. I heard that he was the most favored Young Master, but why didn't the Z family care about him after he went missing? Instead, they favored their Young Master. Strange."

"Who knows the secrets of these clans? What if there's some kind of grudge between them … But let's make a call first. Even though we haven't found much, if we can provide clues about the Young Master, we'll be able to save face in front of the family. "

Zong Jiu: "…"

He didn't expect this situation.

It was obvious that this was a mess left behind by the original owner before he transmigrated.

Thinking back to the description of the original Zong Jiu in Thriller Trainee and the character of the original Zong Jiu, Zong Jiu felt like he should not stay at this place any longer, or else who knew what would happen next?

"Sorry, you've got the wrong person. Please move."

He nodded politely, but it didn't have much effect. Just as he was about to force his way through, he saw all the whispers around him suddenly quiet down.

Zong Jiu turned around and saw Fan Zhuo in a formal suit parting the crowd and walking toward him.

Fan Zhuo lived up to his title of No.7. He became the first player to use his points to redeem his memory.

It was obvious that Fan Zhuo was a well-deserved big shot at this ball.

At least once he showed his stance, some people immediately remembered his relationship with the Young Master and stopped talking.

"Are you planning to come back?"

He escorted Zong Jiu out of the ball hall. No one stopped them along the way.

"No, I'm just out for a walk."

Zong Jiu paused. "Actually, I'm not …"

Back then, he needed to cooperate, so he didn't explain himself.

But now that everything was over, he had to clarify some things.

For example, he wasn't the original Zong Jiu.

However, Fan Zhuo waved his hand and stopped him from saying anything else.

"I didn't choose to support you back then because of this relationship."

The man's voice was cold, but there was a hint of insight. "Even if you weren't, my choice wouldn't have changed."

That's right.

Even if he was a childhood friend, he still had an impression of him and wouldn't be completely unable to recognize him. Moreover, with Fan Zhuo's character, he wouldn't place the future of his organization on someone who was only related to nepotism.

After understanding this, Zong Jiu chuckled. "I was wrong."

At that moment, he saw the black-haired devil across the road, narrowing his eyes as he stared at him and Fan Zhuo.

This time, it was Magician who couldn't help but laugh.

He didn't know why. Even though they weren't related, this situation felt like they were caught red-handed.

Zong Jiu cursed in his heart. He waved at Fan Zhuo, thanked him, and strode across the zebra crossing towards the unfriendly devil.

Magician, who rarely took the initiative, took the initiative to hold onto the devil's hand. He didn't avoid the curious gazes at the entrance of the ball. The two floral rings on his ring fingers shone brightly.

"Let's go home."

Home.

This word made the devil feel an indescribable emotion.

After meeting Magician, he experienced many emotions that he had never felt before. Everything, but he didn't hate it.

"Mm."

The devil didn't spare a glance at the other ants. He was in a good mood as he held onto Magician's hand. "Let's go home."

Their home was an endless cycle. Present, future, and always.
