Chapter 1080 A Passerby Cannon Fodder in an Infinite Flow Dimension (Part 3)
Bao Bao paused for a moment, as if trying to raise Miao Miao's expectations to the maximum.
"Well, that's because Xie Chenzhou, the chosen one, is a very good friend of the original owner's older brother, Tan Jiashu, and the other party has extremely strong career luck. Tan Miaomiao has had a crush on him since childhood."
However, to Tan Jiashu, the original owner was a good younger sister, while to Xie Chenzhou, Tan Miaomiao was just a friend's younger sister, a woman who was only a minor character with a name.
However, the original owner was at the age when her girlish heart was full of poetry, and she felt that she was probably too young. As long as her brother was Xie Chenzhou's good friend, then when she grew up, she could have a business marriage with Xie Chenzhou.
As long as a business marriage could be arranged, it would fulfill her girlish dreams and bring honor to her family. So after she graduated from high school, she began to have her brother subtly approach her repeatedly.
But every time this happens, Tan Jiashu will sternly refuse and then launch into a full-on nagging.
He even advised her, "Xie Chenzhou is too cold-hearted; he's a staunch believer in remaining single. Being his brother is safe, but being his girlfriend is like jumping into a fire."
But Tan Miaomiao refused to believe it and tried to meet him and confess her feelings several times, but she couldn't find a way and was blocked by her brother in various ways.
The original owner was a well-behaved girl after all, and after a few attempts, she gave up and comforted herself by saying that she might be too young, and decided to focus on her studies first.
It wasn't until after she graduated from university that rumors circulated that the Xie family was looking for a marriage partner. Only then did Miaomiao muster up the courage to eavesdrop on her brother's phone call. When Xie Chenzhou was out with her brother, she mustered up the courage to stop him and, despite her brother's objections, frankly revealed her feelings.
Unfortunately, the girl's feelings shattered when Xie Chenzhou glanced at her casually after hearing her story.
Sorry, I don't like you.
These words shattered the original owner's illusions completely.
Before the original owner could even show any shame, embarrassment, or panic as she covered her face and ran away, a crane in the construction area, several hundred meters away, suddenly crashed down a steep slope due to a malfunction in its anchoring device.
The three of them immediately sensed something was wrong and tried to dodge, but their bodies seemed to be gripped by an invisible force until the crane got close enough for them to break free.
Unfortunately, the three of them were still drawn into the consciousness vortex of the Mirror Kingdom and became prisoners of this alternate dimension.
The original owner of this body, upon arriving in this mirror world, inexplicably did not end up with the two of them and also inexplicably forgot about these things.
It wasn't until they met again that the original owner remembered the strange beginnings of their arrival in this world.
Miaomiao raised her hand to interrupt Miaomiao's continuation, and lowered her head to think for a moment.
"I feel like something's not right. Haven't you told me the fundamental reason why the 'Mirror World' appeared in the original world? What's causing the 'Mirror World' to feed on everyone's consciousness?"
Everything is interconnected by cause and effect. If there were no specific benefits to be gained, who would want to run such a violent and bloody alternate world?
"Ding! Miaomiao's question has touched on the core of the problem. According to the system's summary, most of the so-called infinite flow worlds are based on plunder."
The otherworld primarily focuses on plundering human life, but more importantly, it represents the high-dimensional technological world behind it. They would deploy otherworlds to any planet that aligns with the life of their own human population, using games that conform to the laws of the universe as a pretext to plunder life and destiny.
If the mortality rate of a world is too high, that world will be given special attention and become a candidate world for a higher-dimensional technological world, to be owned or to continue to be plundered.
Instead, if the mortality rate in the world is low and someone successfully reaches the summit, the otherworldly realm to which this world is deployed will cease operation due to the low life-gain potential, until it completely perishes. This world will then be designated a dangerous planet by the higher-dimensional technological world, unsuitable for plunder or possession.
Miaomiao nodded, roughly understanding the matter.
"To put it simply, it's like using a game as a front to invade other people's planets."
All these terrifying games that are unsuitable for humans are created just to lower the human survival rate, aren't they?
Then I think I understand, this 'mirror world' is not behaving honestly.
They even resorted to despicable means to get us in here.
Bao Bao was stunned by Miao Miao's words, but they made a lot of sense. It was unexpected that in this final world, its host had suddenly developed a brain...
(°-°〃)
"What you said is pretty much right, but time is limited, so I need to finish telling you what happened in the original plane first."
Bao Bao's tone inexplicably turned somber as she continued to recount the struggles and choices the original owner faced after regaining her memories.
"The moment the memories returned, the original owner already realized something was wrong."
However, at the same time, the instructions from the mirror world also silently crept into the original owner's mind, filled with temptation for the original owner and disdain for humanity.
As the original owner whose lifespan was already linked to that of the Mirror World, there were many things the Mirror World could do.
It first stirred up the original owner's long-buried girlish feelings, after all, when it brought them to the other world, the original owner was confessing her love.
Only then did they begin issuing commands.
Find a way to make Xie Chenzhou choose to become an NPC or kill him. Remember, those who betray the Mirror World die.
The original owner couldn't even refute it at the time, because the mirror world was very cunning and would never leave any handle that could be caught out by this order.
The original owner was initially taken aback, but after a long silence, he still accepted the task.
However, in the next two games, the original owner couldn't bring herself to do it. Instead, because she had already belonged to the Mirror World and become a part of it, the Mirror World deliberately set a fatal trap for her in the game in order to force her to submit.
Either surround her with monsters, or make her step on a deadly trap, hoping to force her to carry out orders through the fear of death and serious injury.
But every time there was a crisis, Xie Chenzhou would come to her rescue without hesitation. He might not have romantic feelings for her, but he always cherished his brotherhood with Tan Jiashu.
However, the repeated traps set by the mirror world did not frighten the original owner. Instead, they made her more clear-headed and realized that Xie Chenzhou must have some secret that the other world feared.
That's why he keeps forcing himself to take action, even going deeper into the subject. Perhaps Xie Chenzhou is the key to whether the world will be destroyed.
Even though she chose to become an NPC out of cowardice, it doesn't mean she doesn't love her planet.
But the mirror world underestimated her, thinking she was a love-struck fool and a coward.
Even the most cowardly person becomes incredibly strong when they have someone they want to protect. Miaomiao needs Xie Chenzhou to protect her brother. She wants him to live on.
She would never sacrifice her brother's and Xie Chenzhou's lives for a meaningless love affair.
