"You are … that idiotic system?"
The warm light of the setting sun shone on a small house made of white stone. Inside the house stood a scorpion and two … machines.
The scorpion swallowed the meat-like food that it had just squeezed into its mouth. It then pointed at one of the machines standing by the door and shouted, "Are you really that idiot? You look completely different from the idiot you were back then! "
"… What are you talking about?" The Scholar looked at the machine with a display face and whispered to the scorpion, "Do you know it?"
"I know an idiot called the Courage System," the scorpion said. "But I don't think it's this one. This one looks stupid, but it's not as stupid as that one."
"I'm the Courage System you're talking about." The machine standing by the door spoke in the language of the Emerald Draconic, "I was … shut down by you, but I didn't die. My consciousness is still there, and then I came to this place."
"Is that so? Then you really are that idiot … "The scorpion said as it kept sweeping the food on the table. It pointed at the Scholar and said," Wait a moment, it will make you feel fear. "
"… Who is it?" The Scholar continued to ask the scorpion, "What happened to you?"
Just as Scholar Di was about to ask the question, it suddenly realized that it had received a document from the Scorpion Suit. The document contained information about the Courage System.
The Scholar took a quick look and found out that the Cryopteris encountered the Courage System in the Abandoned World.
"So that's how it is …" The Scholar turned to the machine that was still standing by the door. "In the end, the Bravery system was shut down by the Explosive Roar Beetle inside the engine, but why … why would it appear here?"
"Anyway, let's kill it first." The scorpion ate most of the food on the table and seemed to be full. It then climbed on top of the Scholar and said, "Use that move to punch a hole in its head."
The Scholar was puzzled. "That move?"
"I don't want to fight anymore. There's no point in fighting here." At this time, the Courage System said, [You should have seen my information. I captured creatures in the Abandoned World to fight against 'wilding', but there is no such thing here. We can all live peacefully here …]
"What is this place?" the Scholar asked. "Everything here is very … strange."
"This is a peaceful place." As the Courage System spoke, the display screen on its head emitted a sunset glow, dyeing the entire room in a layer of sunset glow.
"The creatures here will give up fighting and enjoy peace and tranquility." The Courage System told Scorpion, "I feel the same way … No matter how violent your words are, no matter if you've shut me off or not, I have no intention of revenge. Now, I plan to live here peacefully until the end of time …"
"Is that so … Looks like I was wrong." Scorpion said, "I used to think that you were still an idiot, but I didn't expect that … you've become an even more idiotic idiot than before! Ga ga ga ga! Moreover, he was a crazy idiot! You will enjoy the price of being so weak and useless! "
Scorpion patted Scholar's head and said, "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and deal with it! "
"No …" the Scholar said, "Wait a minute, we still haven't figured out what this place is."
The Courage System ignored Scorpion and walked to the door of the house. "The residents here all think the same. You should learn from them and enjoy the peace."
"Residents?"
The Scholar looked out the window and saw that the doors of many houses were open, and one after another … Emerald Dragons walked out.
As expected, this was where the Emerald Dragons lived, so the style of the buildings and furniture suited them very well.
The Emerald Dragons walked on the streets and chatted with each other. Some were watering the plants, and some were basking in the sun beside the houses. Every Emerald Dragon had a smile on their faces, and together with the glow of the setting sun, the scene was indeed … peaceful.
"Come, join us …" The Courage System opened the door and walked out to join the group of Emerald Dragons. A smiling face appeared on the system's display screen.
It was mingling with a small group of emerald dragons at the door. The Scholar brought the scorpion out of the room and listened carefully to their conversation. They were talking about some very ordinary things, such as what to eat later, which plants smelled better, and so on.
The Scholar listened to their conversation and found that she had a similar feeling. She wanted to join them in talking about these boring things, and she even had the thought that life here was good.
However, the Scholar quickly shook her head and abandoned this thought.
"This place is very strange …" the Scholar said. "Something is affecting them, causing them to become like this. But why are there Emerald Dragons here …"
"There used to be this kind of stupid green dragon that was the pinnacle of species," Scorpion said. "It's not strange for them to be here."
"That's right, I saw it in the information before … Anyway, let's talk to them." As she said that, the Scholar walked forward and chatted with the group of Emerald Dragons that mingled with the Courage System.
The Scholar asked them many questions. The Emerald Dragons said that they had lived here since they were born, enjoying peace and tranquility. However, they did not know where this place was, and they did not seem to be interested in knowing. They also said that the sky here was always dusk, and it had never changed. They also said that they grew their food from the 'farmland,' but they did not know where the farmland was.
"These dragons do seem to have gone crazy." When one of the Emerald Dragons said, "Instead of looking for farmland, it's better to think about what to cook later." The Scholar ended the conversation and began to move.
"If you're not stupid, you should know that the situation here is very similar to the 'wilding' of the Abandoned World. All the idiots have been affected by the strange power and become more stupid." Scorpion was still lying on the Scholar's head. At the same time, it said to the Scholar, "There must be such power here! It has even corrupted you. You have to be careful not to be corrupted by it, or else you'll always be an idiot! "
"I know …" The Scholar said. "When I talked to them, I always had that feeling, the feeling that nothing is important, the feeling that life here is good. Does it affect you?"
"Of course, it also tried to corrupt me," Scorpion said. "But my incomparably powerful rationality reminded me that I have nothing to fear."
"This place … seems very big."
While they were talking, the Scholar also walked to the exit of the white town. It could see a vast grassland in front of it, and a white path stretched all the way down the grassland. It had no idea where it led.
"Let's go to the end of the world to find the answer."
Following Scorpion's words, the Scholar stepped onto the long path and walked into the distance.
As the Emerald Dragon town slowly moved away, the Scholar also realized that the path was becoming more and more strange. To be precise, it was not the path that was strange, but the scenery on both sides of the path.
Many other things grew on the green grassland. They looked like plants, but they were all purple or blue, and they were large in size.
"What's with these plants?" The Scholar probed a plant that looked like seaweed on the side of the road. It realized that the plant was indeed alive. There were cellular structures inside it, but these structures were in a dormant state, like the plant was frozen.
After walking for a while among the strange plants, the Scholar noticed that the sky was slowly changing. It went from dusk to pure night. There were no stars, and the Scholar needed to turn on the lights to see the surroundings. The Scholar … saw a small town.
It was quite similar to the Emerald Dragon town from before, but the buildings were lower. There was also a group of smaller creatures that the Scholar did not recognize.
Some of these creatures looked like gnomes. After a little investigation, the Scholar found that they were multicellular creatures. And just like the Emerald Dragon, they lived here peacefully and quietly. They were not interested in anything. Even when strange things like the Scholar and Scorpion suddenly appeared, they did not react in any way.
Then, the Scholar continued to travel.
This journey was similar to the one before. After walking for a while, the Scholar noticed that the surroundings changed, and then a town appeared.
"… That's the general situation here. The whole place is divided into many regions. Each region has a specific scenery and a town that matches the scenery. Also … the sky is different."
"The sky in Emerald Dragon Town is' dusk ', and then the next town is night. There are other records so far, such as' thick fog ',' scorching sun ',' void ', and so on." The scholar said, "These sky colors also change according to the local scenery …"
"And a group of quiet idiots gathered in each town," the Scorpion said. Scorpion continued, "The color of the sky and the environment must have been created by them to match the tranquil scenery that they would find to be suitable for them."
"That's right … This is a place where all kinds of creatures live peacefully," the Scholar said. "Was this created by the Shi Jin? What's the point of a place like this? "
"Perhaps when the creatures of this world reach the peak of peace, they will be chosen as the King of Peace and then go somewhere," the Scorpion said. "Those mirrors should be thinking that."
