Free Web NovelChapter 1566: Chapter 1566: Life-Review Flashbacks
Yang Yu knew how powerful the enemy he was facing now.
Even though he had grown for so long, the hope of defeating the Demon King was still faint.
What’s more, the Four Heavenly Kings were still here.
Even if he could really do it, the Demon King’s Four Heavenly Kings would definitely not let him kill the Demon King.
This is reality, not a game.
The ideal one-on-one simply doesn’t exist!
The scenario where the opponent shows mercy or timely reinforcements appear also doesn’t exist!
The more he realized this, the more distracting thoughts poured into Yang Yu’s mind.
Yang Yu has never been a battle maniac.
The reason he liked games was not just because of the exhilaration from combat, but also because he wanted to see what kind of world others would construct and what kind of story they would tell.
To see all kinds of different stories, to personally experience the worlds they construct, Yang Yu gradually improved his strength, from a rookie who struggled to surpass Super Mario, step by step growing into a game expert undefeated.
In his childhood, Yang Yu once had a dream.
That was that he was truly the protagonist of the game.
He manipulated the game character to actually solve others’ troubles, to save them from peril.
Numerous trials and errors were just to provide the protagonist, himself being the protagonist, a feasible strategy method.
As he grew older, Yang Yu gradually realized the simplicity and naivety of his ideas.
But, that in no way prevented Yang Yu from having had such a beautiful dream.
When he first came to this world, Yang Yu was bewildered, really treating this world as a game to play.
The first time he picked up a sword, Yang Yu didn’t feel any dissonance, only thought he hadn’t adapted to the control feel, so while planting clover during that time, he also spent a year familiarizing himself with the control feel, understanding fields he had never set foot in.
When he first met He Meng, Yang Yu also chose to trust his intuition.
The reason he chose to use clover to strategize He Meng, not thinking of other ways to complete the task, was that Yang Yu felt that using the way he chose, the rules he found, defeating an extremely powerful opponent in the god-created game was a very cool thing.
Clearly, when almost killed by He Meng, he should realize this world was not ordinary, yet he stubbornly kept moving forward with a game-thinking approach...
The previous adventures were truly joyful and joyous.
Even if he failed, he could only laugh it off.
There was always an inexplicable confidence.
Why do many people remember their teenage years?
Probably, it’s also because during those teenage years, most people had the same feeling as Yang Yu when he first entered this world, with not much burden.
Sadly, if you want to go further, just youthful passion and confidence are not enough.
Having played countless games, witnessed countless worlds, Yang Yu, having transformed from a teen to a youth, from a youth back to a teen, then from a teen to a youth again, clearly understood this.
So, after that fire, Yang Yu chose to accept his past self.
Striving little by little towards the best solution.
Not shouting "I will definitely solve the problem," like a hot-blooded youth, but thinking "is this really solving the problem?" like a young adult.
One scene after another flashed in his mind, and Yang Yu couldn’t help but chuckle.
Damn, was that just now like a flash of a moment? Damn, how long has the battle been going on, and I feel like I’m dying? I don’t remember being such a pessimistic person!
A bit envious of those battle maniacs who don’t have to worry about anything when fighting...
Because of the goal to achieve, wanting to clear those games, failing didn’t bear much burden, so he could focus all his spirit.
Yang Yu understood this deeply.
Yang Yu also knew that in this situation, his hope of escaping was slim; his final hope was that Bai Jin and the others could escape from here, waiting somewhere for this war to end.
Even if he didn’t grasp the truth, didn’t defeat the Demon King, someone would surely complete the task he hadn’t finished.
As time passed, Bai Jin and the others moved further and further away. Yang Yu’s hope had been fulfilled, and those flash-like images gradually entered his mind.
Clenching his sword, Yang Yu repeatedly told himself, perhaps there’s still a turn in events, trying to clear his mind again.
But once aware of some things, it’s hard to clear them from the mind.
Perhaps you don’t need to clear those things from your mind...
Just give yourself a false hope, just tell yourself there will surely be someone like certain protagonists who save you at the critical moment, then it’ll be enough...
Then there’s still the meaning of continuing to fight.
...
...
Sitting on Lotcar’s back, Iyas occasionally looked back.
Bai Jin was still flying in mid-air, and like Iyas, occasionally looked back.
With Lotcar’s speed, running away from the gray barrier wasn’t difficult.
When passing through the barrier, Bai Jin could sense the magic techniques constituting the barrier, they escaped easily but going back would be extremely difficult.
The gray barrier enveloped all magic fluctuations, making it hard for the fluctuations inside to reach outside.
Unless with very, very powerful magic, there’s only a faint hope to sense the situation inside the gray barrier.
"It’s okay. Yang Yu won’t deceive me." Bai Jin kept murmuring in his heart, "He really has a way to escape, we would only be a hindrance there! That’s why he let us leave!"
No matter how many times Bai Jin comforted himself, he couldn’t dispel his unease.
Bai Jin tightly gripped the magic wand [Sigh Seed], her feelings at this moment were completely spied upon by the millipede inside the wand.
Since the temptation failed back then, and Bai Jin told everything to Yang Yu, the white millipede had been waiting for an opportunity.
Waiting for the perfect moment when the Goddess’ Apostle would be far, and they would face a major crisis needing a powerful external force to help them out of trouble.
Even if Bai Jin’s ability had grown beyond her imagination, it wouldn’t affect its temptation of her.
As long as it successfully grabbed hold of this young girl, then even the Goddess’ Apostle would have no way.
That Goddess’ Apostle also seemed to be seeking truths from the past, if it could seize this young girl, using her to win over the Goddess’ Apostle would also be great.
After thinking for a long time, the white millipede found the best way to tempt, and sighed in Bai Jin’s heart:
"It turns out it was the Demon King....
Has the time for the Demon King Descent arrived?
..."
Before the white millipede finished speaking, the storage magic array appeared at the end of the magic wand [Sigh Seed].
Bai Jin’s gaze was drawn by the magic wand [Sigh Seed], she quickly realized that the wand again wants to tempt during extremely critical situations, wanting to throw it into the storage magic array.
Unexpectedly, the magic wand [Sigh Seed] resisted Bai Jin’s storage magic, uttering the words most likely to shake Bai Jin:
"What he said, everything is a lie!
This time he will really die!"
