623. confession
Tang Yuan walked out of the kitchen and saw that there were still many people crowded in the hall. They had indeed finished eating, but they were still waiting for Tang Yuan to come out, as if they were holding some kind of ceremony.
"You haven't left yet?" Tang Yuan was surprised. "Do you have anything else to say to me?"
Wu Yanqian replied with a smile: "The charterer has told us all the ins and outs before, but we think he only told part of the truth and concealed the other part."
"I've already told you what I can tell you, you suspicious guys." The charterer said helplessly. "Telling you other things will only increase your troubles."
"We want to listen to Tang Yuan's explanation." A group of players headed by Wu Yanqian stared at Tang Yuan seriously. Lu Ze sat in the corner, seemingly immersed in his own world, but in fact he had been paying attention to what was going on here.
The charterer looked at Tang Yuan and spread his hands.
"It's up to you to decide, but they will know sooner or later."
Tang Yuan felt a little headache looking at these players with serious expressions. He found it very troublesome to explain things. He hated explaining things to others.
"Tell us, how were those evil thoughts defeated at that time? Where did the disappeared players go? What did you sacrifice to make the situation better again?" Wu Yanqian asked.
"We just want to know the truth. After all, it's too uncomfortable to be hidden." Yi Shengli said. "Did my wife really leave successfully?"
"Why did the countdown suddenly clear? Did we really give all the countdown to you?"
"I had a hunch very early on that I would probably live in the City of the Dead, and either die in the dungeon, or suddenly have an epiphany and give up everything." As a veteran A-level player, Hong Jinhan certainly had this dissatisfaction very early on.
It was a wonderful feeling, but he never said it out loud. "Everything dies. Has our system reached its end?"
"Tang Yuan, you know everything, right? Don't put it all on yourself." Liu Conghui pushed up his glasses. "And we will help you share the burden."
Taoist priest and Hua Luosen, who had already guessed some of the inside story, were sitting nearby.
Tang Yuan rubbed his temples, it seemed that if he didn't give them an explanation today, they wouldn't let him go.
"Everyone's thirst for knowledge is just a little strong. Tang Yuan, you can say what you want to say. If you don't want to say, I will help you send them away." The Taoist priest unfolded the folding fan and fanned it gently.
"I can guarantee that what you know now must be true, but Tang Yuan must have his reasons for not telling us everything before." Hua Luosen said. "Sometimes knowing everything is not necessarily a good thing.
.”
"That's right..." Taoist Master had a deep understanding. "In the past, you just performed tasks as bystanders. No matter whether the outcome is deterioration or recovery, it actually has no impact on you. But when you are at the core of the storm, you will
Understand that sometimes knowing the truth may not necessarily make you happy."
Tang Yuan thought about it and decided to only talk about the good part, so as to motivate everyone to complete the task and complete the game earlier, so that everyone can live a stable life earlier.
But "resurrection is a scam" cannot be said now, because many players are obsessed with being resurrected. If they know this, they may not be able to accept the blow for a while, disappear quickly, and even be unable to generate new obsession support.
own existence.
This matter needs to be accepted by everyone little by little, there is no rush now.
"I'll answer your questions one by one." Tang Yuan found a chair, sat down, and everyone gathered around.
"First of all, you did give me all the countdowns so that I could defeat that Zhang Di. There is no doubt about this. You are the real heroes."
"I actually gave you all the countdown time... No matter how you think about it, it's not something I can do. How could I be willing to do it at that time?" Someone murmured in a low voice.
Because you already knew at that time that resurrection was a fake, and that the beautiful city of the dead was also an illusion and a scam. In addition, Zhang Di came to attack, and you had lost all your fighting spirit. You would die sooner or later anyway, so why not give the countdown to Tang Yuan and return the favor?
I can make some contribution in the end.
Tang Yuan knew that he must not say this.
"When people are under pressure, they will always do things that they don't even believe." Tang Yuan looked at the man with admiration. "The disappearing players have been swallowed up by evil thoughts and cannot be saved, but because of your will
There is nothing better than surviving with determination."
"Then there is the problem of the system. The city of the dead we live in is indeed in decline, and the system has no extra power to continue to operate, which means that we may be buried together at any time due to the decline of the system."
"No wonder..." Wu Yanqian suddenly thought of the players who came to invade before. The reason why they had such a style of killing, burning and looting was probably because the system was about to run out of energy.
Many players present were not fools. After Tang Yuan officially admitted this, they all figured out a lot of things.
"Then we can only wait to die?"
Tang Yuan shook his head: "I have found a way, but it is still a semi-finished product. When it is finished, I will take you to see it."
Finished product? Semi-finished product? Many people can’t understand this sentence.
"Now we can only place our hope on my method. If it succeeds, everything you worry about will be solved."
"How can we help?" Liu Conghui asked.
"Go to the task, crack the worldview, and don't finish it perfunctorily. Every time you successfully clear a world, you can help me complete this plan faster."
"Is it that simple?" Lu Ze couldn't hold back.
Wu Yanqian waved her hands quickly: "Is it simple? I don't think it is simple! We have to crack 100% of the world view and trigger the ending, which shows that we can't lose even a little detail."
"It's easy for me." Lu Ze snorted coldly. "Are you sure you don't need any more help from us?"
"Let's do this first and then talk." Tang Yuan said, then looked at everyone with different expressions: "Do you have any other questions?"
"The charterer is..." Wang Tianyi couldn't help but ask. He had long discovered that Yun Kong was different from ordinary players.
Tang Yuan raised the corner of his mouth: "Yunkong, it's up to you to introduce this yourself."
Yunkong sighed helplessly: "I am the system of the City of the Dead. I am responsible for assigning tasks to you, issuing rewards, and maintaining the operation of the entire system."
For a moment, there was silence in the room.
Everyone had guessed the answer, but they never expected the truth to be so shocking.
Many people have met Rentong when they first entered the City of the Dead. Many players have asked him to rent daily necessities and tools when they were in difficulty.
They were also surprised, as an E-level player, how could the charterer live so calmly? But this may be a secret that is not told to others. Everyone has their own secrets, and they actually have no interest in knowing.
He's just an E-level player, not worth mentioning.
Even if he has another level of identity, it is nothing more than a "special player".
Except for Wang Tianyi, Hua Luosen and Taoist priest who had frequent contact with Tang Yuan, most players did not guess this.
Wang Tianyi also had doubts after he saw the big tree behind Yunkong after eating Yuge Danshao last time.
"You can just think of me as an ordinary player. In fact, I am just a tool. Although I am part of the system, I don't have much power. There are more senior administrators above me."
"No matter how low the level of the system is, it is still a system."
"No matter how low the level of management is, it is still a permission dog."
"Okay, I've answered all the questions. Just work hard. If nothing happens, just leave. At such a tense time, it's best not to get together and do your own thing." Tang Yuan stood up with a smile and said in front of everyone.
