Chapter 337: Just Don’t Lose!

Why did so many people choose to commit suicide and give up on themselves after hearing about the arrival of the game?

What is the truth behind this? Many people do not know because those who went crazy and those who talked about the end of the world are all the most loyal players of The Sealed Land.

Some things are beyond the understanding of some casual players and those who have never played one of the sealed games.

If you were to describe one characteristic of The Sealed Land, what is the first word that comes to your mind?

Reality?

Maybe most people feel that way. So, if I ask you to think of one adjective, or even ten adjectives, what would they be?

Difficult!

Hardcore, torturous, hellish difficulty, impossible for anyone to clear!

Once upon a time, there was a Guardian. Ten top guilds went to challenge it with full preparation, but they were all defeated.

In other games, a situation like this would have caused the game to fail a long time ago.

However, The Sealed Land is different. It never cares if players can handle its difficulty, and the level of challenge has never changed because of players’ complaints.

It has its unique charm. It is quite realistic, and that is one of its attractions.

But its most attractive feature is not its realism but the fact that its difficulty level is extremely high and sometimes seems unreasonable!

Many players are used to being challenged and actually enjoy the extremely difficult battles.

The harder it gets, the more they enjoy the sense of achievement after defeating a boss.

However, all these points are valid only if the game remains a game and offers unlimited respawns.

So, if we imagine all of this in real life, how would players who know the game’s nature react?

Collapse, suicide, everything is within reason.

Because they know deeply what they will face.

People who don’t know are fearless, while those who know are anxious and restless.

Their mentality is like the early days of Ye Qiu, the more they know, the more afraid they become, the clearer the truth, the more scared they are!

With ignorance, there is still courage to fight.

With full knowledge, there is no courage to wield the sword.

Even the armies of various countries entering the first floor of the Tower of Seals were sweating profusely and extremely cautious.

The first wave of advance team had entered the tower, but Ye Qiu was still outside the tower.

By a pool, Ye Qiu and Lu Qing stood side by side, "Can I borrow your phone, I need to make a call."

Ye Qiu handed the phone to Lu Qing. "You call, I’ll step back for now, but you must understand something first."

"You’ve been missing for five years. Your family already thought you were dead. Over these five years, they have come to accept your death."

"If you tell them now that you’re alive, what do you think will happen?"

Hearing this, Lu Qing’s finger paused on the screen. "Wow, phones nowadays are impressive… Looks like technology has advanced a lot in five years, haha…"

Ye Qiu looked at Lu Qing. "Are you avoiding?"

Lu Qing’s lips trembled. "I… I’m not, it’s just that I… don’t know what to say. I look so different now compared to before…"

"Even if I show up in front of them now, they wouldn’t recognize me. If I tell them I’ve come back from the dead, I…"

Ye Qiu patted Lu Qing’s shoulder. "Let’s wait for now. Let’s first find out where your family is, then we can quietly observe them and see if they are safe."

Lu Qing silently put down the phone. "Actually, I… I’m afraid to see them. My mom has a heart condition…"

"Upon hearing news of my sudden passing, I wondered how my mother was doing, whether she had accepted my death."

"If she had accepted it and I were to suddenly appear and tell her I had come back to life, I feared she might…"

"No, what I feared even more was that after hearing of my death, my mother had already passed away."

"So if we just continue not seeing each other like this, as long as we don’t see each other… she might still be alive…"

Ye Qiu took the phone, which already had a complete phone number entered in it.

"It’s just living in your heart."

"Lu Qing, if you think that, it’s just like Schrödinger’s cat, but the truth won’t change based on your observation alone."

"If you don’t want to see each other now, let’s not meet, we can come back together after everything is over."

Lu Qing slowly raised his head, "You said after everything is over… how will it end?"

Ye Qiu turned his head and looked towards the Tower of Seals, deep into the clouds. "To climb to the top of the tower, I need your help."

Lu Qing also turned his head and followed, "I don’t have any special talents. In some ways, I’m not as good as you guys."

Ye Qiu stared at Lu Qing, "You are different because you already have the strongest talent!"

"From now on, we are no longer immortal, but you are. You are still the immortal guide."

"You possess the Eye of Truth, you can see through all information, and perceive all falsehoods."

"You are immortal, you can keep moving forward, you are the strongest among us!"

Lu Qing also looked at Ye Qiu, "But immortality is not my ability. The moment the Flesh Host was stripped from my body, I became an ordinary human again!"

"Ye Qiu, I’m very grateful that you saved me in the game."

"Without you, I might not even be alive to see this day."

"But you can’t guarantee how things will turn out in reality, helping you is like hurting myself."

"If I help you move forward, and end up being killed by you this time, what’s the point of surviving so hard?"

"Even if I’m afraid, I still have to see my parents, but first, I have to have the fate to see them!"

"So I can’t help you, I’m sorry."

Ye Qiu nodded, "I understand, I get it, not blaming you, we just have different perspectives."

"We’re meant to be on opposite sides, you don’t have to help your enemy."

"But considering our past relationship, could you help me just once, one time is enough."

Lu Qing was silent for a moment, "Just once… now?"

Ye Qiu nodded, "Yes, I’m going to challenge the Conspiracy Wolf Lord, so I need your Eye of Truth to help me dispel the Wolf Lord’s illusionary body."

Lu Qing frowned, "With how you are now, challenge the Conspiracy Wolf Lord?"

"Forgive me for being direct, even if you have talent, even if I can dispel the Wolf Lord’s illusionary body, you cannot defeat the Wolf Lord in your current state. You are walking into a death trap!"

Lu Qing was right, Ye Qiu’s talent does not enhance his combat power, and he is just an ordinary person now…

It’s simply impossible to defeat the Wolf Lord.

"That’s right, I can’t defeat the Wolf Lord on my own, so I need help," Ye Qiu replied.

Lu Qing was puzzled, "Given our current situation, who can help you?"

"You might end up risking your life instead of finding the help you need!"

Ye Qiu nodded, "Yes, that’s why the help I seek is not human."
