Fallen City was the place where the former leader Yun Lietian died, hence the name. There must be something there that attracted Yun Chu to lead the team there again after three years.
This time, many of the team members were injured and hadn't recovered yet, so there wouldn't be any danger if they went to pick up Yun Chu and the others. Zhang Zhiyin left Da Dao, Chen Guang, and the others behind as reinforcements, while he brought Old Zhu and five other uninjured team members to scout the way.
There were advantages to having fewer people, such as being able to adapt quickly and being easy to disguise. Yun Chu didn't point out what obstacles they needed to clear, and Zhang Zhiyin didn't plan to risk his life to fight the zombies before the main team arrived. He only wanted to understand the general situation and report when the time came.
After getting into the car, he felt sleepy. After informing his team members, he leaned against the seat and fell asleep.
On the other side, Zhang Zhiyin had already returned to the real world.
He sat up from the sofa and gently placed the sleeping Yin Xiaoxing beside him, then walked to the study room and turned on the computer. His old laptop was still in his suitcase, and he was too lazy to take it out. This computer was a desktop computer he bought after moving to the new house, and it was usually used by the boss. Although the computer didn't help him at all, other than making him look more like a human.
This computer also had the game downloaded on it. It was this game that allowed the two of them to meet, so Zhang Zhiyin always had an unusual feeling for it.
He didn't have any premonition that Yin Nian had been hiding it from him. He tried his best not to let her know that loving him was a dangerous thing for him. He silently dealt with everything by himself, until one day when Zhang Zhiyin woke up and realized that this person was gone.
Zhang Zhiyin silently opened the game icon and logged into the game. In fact, he was also hiding something from Yin Nian, but he didn't know if Yin Nian had seen through it. When he faced the final boss in the Epic Instance Dungeon, the hallucination after being poisoned was his inner demon.
All along, all along, all he wanted was to find someone to be with him, from life to death, never abandoning him. But he didn't believe in the human heart, didn't believe in love that would never change, so he restrained himself, restrained himself from loving, and placed his emotions on a virtual character. But he understood that it wasn't love. Until that day, when he saw the words "My name is Yin Nian" appear in the dialog box. Rationally, he knew that it was just a bug, but he couldn't help but smile like an idiot at the screen.
He knew something was out of control. When he wanted to restrain himself and take back his hand, he was hit by a car. He could no longer take it back.
He was lucky enough to have met Yin Nian, but what his lover didn't know was that he still felt fearful and worried from time to time. What would he do if he lost this unrealistic happiness one day?
If only I hadn't met you at the beginning. If only I had liked any other NPC back then. It would be nice if you were just a virtual character. Zhang Zhiyin pushed open the door of the abandoned laboratory with familiarity. She looked at the image of the game waiting inside as usual. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, but her eyes couldn't help but overflow with tears. Unlike when he was a cat, he never cried as a human.
As he thought of this, he was secretly rebutting in his heart. He was like Jack who was lucky enough to win a boat ticket. Even if he knew the consequences, he would still step on the boat without hesitation. If he didn't do this, he would never have met that person. Then even if he could restrain himself and spend the rest of his time as planned, what was the point?
He controlled the little person to approach the person who was still leaning against the cabinet with his head slightly lowered. He hugged him lightly and then opened his backpack.
In the first compartment, the crystal ring shone brightly.
He dragged the ring to the ground and typed: "Yin Nian, I can't take it back."
I used to think that I wanted to never leave you, but now I clearly understand that I only want you. Rather than being afraid of the length of eternity, I would rather cherish every minute and every second with you …
"Yin Nian, I love you."
He didn't know if he could hear these words like before. He just wanted to tell her so badly.
"Go home, Nian."
In the base, Y quietly looked at the ring in his hand, lost in thought.
Such a fragile, flashy little thing would shatter if he exerted even the slightest bit of force. But the moment he held it, it was as if countless images surged from the bottom of his heart, making him feel helpless for the first time.
This ring, those words, it was as if he had finally obtained it after waiting for a long time. It was as if he could see, in another world, how pitiful and helpless a person was waiting for him. Somewhere in his heart suddenly softened. He turned his head, and his eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist.
He seemed to have been like this before, waiting for a person day after day, waiting for him to appear, and then he was happy. Later, he couldn't help but follow him, in his phone, in the computer on his desk, in the electronic screens in the square he walked by … That person didn't know, only thinking that he was waiting for him in a fixed place like before, but in fact, he had already appeared in every corner of his life.
He almost couldn't help but immerse himself in it until the alarm suddenly sounded. Ever since he had a breakdown, he upgraded his protection system, which would kill all possible harmful factors in time.
Y raised the ring in his hand and carefully examined it —
It was better to destroy it in time.
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door and entered. It was Leighton.
He bowed respectfully and said, "Doctor, the Yuntian Alliance has organized a large number of elites to Jiya City, should we send people to stop them?"
Yin Nian put away the ring and nodded. "Let Yu Huo organize people to stop them."
After a pause, he added, "You and Mencali should also get ready, I want to see it personally."
Leighton nodded and closed the door before leaving.
The ring that should have been destroyed in time was placed in Y's chest pocket, never to be taken out again.
