Chapter 36：It’s My Turn (2/2)

Wei Huo looked over at Lu Qiqi and asked, ”Lu Qiqi, are you afraid of death?”

Lu Qiqi looked at Wei Huo and seemed confused about why he repeatedly asked the same question. She replied, ”I don't know what fear is. My job is to test the game until death.”

She was an artificial being after all. She was not human.

She was only five years away from the end of her lifespan. Hopefully, they could find the cave within five years and pass on the Qi-Training Skill to her!

Wei Huo continued traveling with Lu Qiqi for the next three years. He became more and more irritable over those three years, but he would comfort himself at times. 'Maybe God doesn't care about someone with a minor role like me. Maybe I could be thrown into the time halt, and I will be revived when the game development is completed.'

Wei Huo only realized a major issue now. Everything he had owned was given by God. If God was to take everything away from him, how could he fight back?

The answer was, no way!

Unless one became as strong as God, or more powerful than God!

Wei Huo kept a little hope in his heart and continued with his journey to find the cave. He was not going to give up until the very last minute.

In their final two years, Lu Qiqi's body started experiencing problems. There was a new disease called 'Dementia (Mild)' on her Health Menu. That caused her to stop in her tracks sometimes and went into nostalgia. She would not wake up from it unless Wei Huo shouted at her. The 10 basic skills which she possessed also began deteriorating. Her basic skills that used to be at level five were now at level three.

Although Lu Qiqi's appearance did not change much, her body began showing signs of aging. It seemed as if she was about to die.

Wei Huo could not help but feel sad as he watched Lu Qiqi. Lu Qiqi did accompany him for about seven to eight years and it was not easy on Wei Huo's heart to have them all eventually leave him. This was something people with a long lifespan had to go through.

Wei Huo thought about the title 'The Loner Neglected By God'. As if it was not bad enough that he was neglected by God, why was he branded as a loner as well? Wei Huo felt that it was too relatable at the moment!

'At the end of the day, I'm still alone!'

Loneliness was the only constant in Wei Huo's long life.

The panda died in the fifth year of their journey, and Wei Huo paused his journey again in the eighth year.

Lu Qiqi had collapsed. She had dementia, osteoporosis, deafness, cataracts, and other diseases commonly found among the elderly. She could no longer travel with Wei Huo.

Wei Huo reluctantly complimented God at that moment. God was indeed powerful. He thought about this thoroughly.

It seemed like not only did God come up with the Mood bar, God had also considered diseases among the elderly. These diseases were all part of God's trial.

Seeing how Lu Qiqi was getting closer to death, Wei Huo could not help himself but think that if Lu Qiqi died, his demise was near as well. After God had accessed Lu Qiqi's memory, He would definitely deal with Wei Huo, the one who did not experience the time halt. In balancing out the game, God will probably wipe out his memory and everything that he had gained over the past century. God could also just kill Wei Huo. Whichever the result was, Wei Huo would not accept this!

Wei Huo had always been the one watching other living creatures die. How would it feel like now that the situation had been reversed? Wei Huo could not help but forced a smile. Who could have guessed that he was going to be the next to go after the panda, the tiger, and Lu Qiqi?

Wei Huo constructed a cabin and settled Lu Qiqi in it until her days came to an end. Black crows landed on the dead branches outside the cabin. They kept crowing as if counting down to her death.

Lu Qiqi suddenly disappeared the next morning!
