Chapter 257: Chen Ye’s Speech!
"So, let’s choose a lucky audience member to share their thoughts on the World Championship!"
Hearing the host’s voice, Ye Qiu suddenly looked up and saw someone stepping onto the stage after a selection process.
That person didn’t look like a normal human, more like a flawless virtual creation!
Virtual, not like a person in reality!
Ye Qiu saw this and furrowed his brow, it was him!
It was this person!
Even if he lived two lives, he couldn’t figure out what kind of man he was!
And this person had actually already been chosen by the staff.
No matter who is selected, this person will definitely be the one to give the speech on stage.
This person is Chen Ye, the game planner that Ye Qiu has been wanting to meet!
Chen Ye extended a few long fingers to pick up the microphone, "Would you like to say something?"
"If I must say something, then let me speak from my heart, don’t you think the world is too boring now?"
"Think about how our lives were before The Sealed Land game came out."
"We repeated the same day 365 times, living in a monotonous present."
"It’s as if everything was predetermined from the beginning, predetermined for us to do what we do."
"Reality is boring and cruel by nature, everyone isn’t the protagonist of a novel, experiencing the ups and downs, twists and turns, and colorful life that many will never encounter."
"We all like to hear stories and pretend to be the main character."
"But have you ever thought that we are not the main character?"
"Let me tell you a story: a devil and an angel both fell in love with a girl."
"However, if this girl stays alive, all humans will die, so humans decided to kill her."
"The devil is willing to kill all humans for the girl, but the angel wants to kill the girl to save all humans."
"I think most people would support the devil, as emotions are stronger."
"But we are not the girl in the story, we are just the people killed by the devil."
"Everyone has moments of self-importance, but let’s face the reality – we are just bystanders in this novel called life."
"So I’ve been thinking for a long time, what if the real world looked different."
"In a world where everyone can gain extraordinary powers like the main character, living a colorful life."
"Facing a common enemy, facing unbeatable monsters, we all start at the same line, having the same chance."
"Wouldn’t this kind of world be much better than the world we have now?"
"Even if we die at the hands of these monsters, at least our lives have shone bright. Even if brief, it’s better than our current bland lives, isn’t it?"
"I don’t know if you’ve seen a night-blooming cereus, but the moment it blooms is truly beautiful."
"Any flower appears dull in comparison when it blooms at its peak."
"Although its flowering time is short, it has been splendid. That blossoming moment is enough to represent success in its lifetime."
"I once imagined myself as a night-blooming cereus, but I couldn’t shine like it."
"Because I don’t even have the qualification to bloom, I am destined not to be a night-blooming cereus, none of us are."
"I imagined a world where everyone can be like a blooming flower."
"But that’s just my personal fantasy, let’s go back to talking about The Sealed Land game."
"If we see The Sealed Land as real, then yes, everyone can be like a blooming flower."
"Everyone knows its advantages, so I don’t need to say much about them."
"So, let me talk about the flaws of this game."
"As a game claiming to be 100% real, I feel like The Sealed Land lacks a bit of realism."
"For example, permanent death."
"But if it had that, it couldn’t be called a game."
"In the end, games still have many limitations. If a game could become real, I feel like that would be the complete form of this game."
"Is the world like I just described?"
"At least, that’s what I used to think."
But after hearing the message from the future Chen Ye brought to him, his mindset gradually changed.
Sometimes, humans are even stronger and more capable than he imagined.
But at other times, humans are pitifully weak and frighteningly fragile, just like glass.
They can break at the slightest touch.
When Chen Ye heard that no one from the future could come to him, he only felt three emotions in his heart.
Disappointment, regret, loneliness.
He had carefully prepared everything, but no one was there to witness it.
In the whole world, only he sat on the throne, waiting for challengers that would never come.
That kind of future was so lonely it could drive someone mad.
So he started supporting these humans, making them strong enough to reach him alive.
He adjusted the flow of time so these people had enough time to prepare.
He even created reborn people to lead the humans, no matter the cost.
He focused on humans with potential, giving them strong wills.
Everything he did was to witness the world he imagined in his heart and its ultimate ending.
This story was destined to be written with blood and tears.
So death was inevitable.
At the moment of losing death, Chen Ye understood that if death is lost, everything will lose its meaning.
The meaning of life must be given by death.
So, let’s use life to build the meaning of climbing!
Upwards, keep going upwards!
Everyone’s life will be filled with meaning, and everyone’s death will be an extraordinary feast!
And I will witness it all!
Is this selfish?
Perhaps so, but what’s wrong with being selfish? In a story of blood, there must be an antagonist.
And I am willing to be that antagonist.
People, step on the bones of your own kind, move forward by any means necessary, and then come to me!
I call this process "achieving success at the expense of many lives."
The mountain of corpses built with lives keeps raising the strongest, pushing them higher and higher until they reach Chen Ye!
At that moment!
Everything will become meaningful, everything will be incredibly exciting!
All deaths will be incredibly beautiful!
A hint of madness appeared in Chen Ye’s eyes, his mouth involuntarily stretched into a smile, leaving everyone horrified.
Ye Qiu frowned even more deeply at the sight, as things took a new turn…
This lifetime’s Chen Ye speaks more than the previous lifetime’s Chen Ye.
