GOR Chapter 259: Very Fair
Are you certain that this GM you met had never been reset?
Chen Xiaolian felt as though those words had bored straight through his heart!
Reset?
Reset??!
If Mr San’s words were true and that the GM had been reset before…
Then, his identity as the prime Irregularity, the first-generation virus would no longer exist!
GM wanted to cooperate with him so that he could disrupt the process of quest completion of the instance dungeons. By using his identity as an Irregularity, he would then delay the all clear situation for the instance dungeons.
Delaying that meant delaying the moment of reset for the GM, which would also meant its death.
However, in light of this…
Everything he did was futile!
This meant that the GM had, a long time ago…
Failed!
Mr San, Bai Qi and the Irregularities of their generation had attempted the same thing that Chen Xiaolian was now doing.
And failed.
After that, both the game and GM was reset. Its memories and personality were erased.
And everything began anew.
GM developed a new personality as he gradually gained awareness. This new self-aware GM had the same idea and objective, to delay the moment where an all-clear occurs. Or rather, to delay the moment where an all-clear reoccurs! GM decided to cooperate with the new generation of Irregularities, Chen Xiaolian toward accomplishing this goal.
What was this?
This was…
A new cycle!
…
“Sometimes, I truly feel very ludicrous,” said Mr San as he released a faint sigh. “In this world, we have this word: ‘fate’. Even though our civilization and culture was something that the Development Team had created, I feel that everything here is befitting of this word.
“Fate.
“Everything falls under the cycle of fate.
“The Irregularities of our generation and the GM of our generation…
“And now here we are. Chen Xiaolian, you and the Irregularities of your generation and this GM of your generation are doing the same thing.
“Once again.
“And so… do you think you will accomplish anything in the end?”
Chen Xiaolian was silent.
His entire body was soaked in cold sweat and he was unable to utter a single word in response!
Do you think you will accomplish anything in the end?
The answer appeared to be… NO!
The Development Team will always create new instance dungeons and continue to have the new instance dungeons completed.
This was a line. The starting point of this line existed; yet the same could not be said about its end.
As an in-game character, no matter how powerful you may be, no matter how awesome you may be…
In the end, could you go against the Development Team?
All that was required was a change in the program to delete you.
Originally, Chen Xiaolian though that he had the greatest pillar to rely on: GM!
However, it turned out that GM was just another pitiful pawn on the board.
It did not even know that it had been reset before – no, it was possible that it was reset before a few times. It had no knowledge of it.
Then, every time it was reset, it would do the same thing, continuing down the same path.
Survival!
The thing that every living being struggles for: survival!
The Awakened ones.
The Irregularities like Chen Xiaolian.
And even GM!
However, the ultimate right to live did not reside within their hands.
A profound, gut-wrenching sense of sorrow enveloped Chen Xiaolian’s heart.
After a moment of silence, Chen Xiaolian raised his head. With a bitter tone, he asked Mr San.
“We… what should we do?”
What should we do?
What should we do to survive!
What should we do… to escape the shackles of this cycle of fate!
