I open a restaurant in Mysterious Recovery

Chapter 453 GM guest appearance NPC, the definition of God

"This guy is very strong."

"It's not much worse than that one."

Lao Wang and Lao Lu have been together for many years, and because of their ability to control the supernatural, they have long been able to understand each other's thoughts and can understand each other without too many words.

escape?
There is no escape.

beat?
Can't beat it.

Although they had walked out of the sea of ​​blood and corpses on the battlefield, they felt deeply powerless at this moment, but they did not choose to confront forcefully.

"Since it's a restaurant, it's a place for consumption. If we follow the rules, I think nothing will happen."

Moreover, the look in Lin Yuan's eyes when he looked at them was obviously full of admiration, which made Old Wang and Old Lu feel more at ease, and their child Xiao Wang seemed to be very close to Lin Yuan as well.

"Brother, are you the owner of this restaurant?"

Lin Yuan squatted down, smiled and touched Xiao Wang's head, "Yes, you must be tired on the way. If you want to eat something, I'll ask someone to make it for you."

"Thank you, big brother."

Xiao Wang smiled obediently, then turned to look at Lao Wang and Lao Lu, expectantly saying, "Mom and Dad, do you want to eat anything? Let's eat first and then go back."

"We are a little hungry, but we don't have any money with us this time." Lao Wang looked helpless.

Lin Yuan said: "No need this time. After all, I have worked so hard to come back from abroad. I just woke up and don't have time to go over, but I can still treat you to a meal."

Just woke up?

No time has passed?

Lao Wang and Lao Lu looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other's eyes, but they didn't have time to think about it, because Lin Yuan had taken Xiao Wang's hand and walked to the table and sat down.

They were clearly holding Xiao Wang's hands just now, when did they let go?
"What a scary guy."

"Luckily, he seems to be friendly now."

Lin Yuan behaved very gently, especially when facing Xiao Wang. He was just like what Xiao Wang called him, a very gentle big brother next door.

Soon three bowls of plain noodles were served.

Lao Wang glanced at Boss Liu and his two companions at the table next to him. Boss Liu and his two companions were also looking at them, but there was not much communication between them.

The situation in this restaurant is so weird, it’s better to keep out of trouble.

If there is anything you really want to talk about, of course you should wait until you leave here.

Xiao Wang didn't have so many thoughts. He was really hungry along the way. After all, he was just an ordinary little boy. Although he was brought by his parents to see the world and knew a lot, he was also shocked by the bloody battlefield.

It was not until now, facing Lin Yuan's tenderness, that his heart gradually calmed down.

However, Lin Yuan's gentle attitude towards Xiao Wang made Lao Wang and Lao Lu puzzled. They wondered what was so special about their son that this big boss liked so much.

Of course they don't know.

It’s because everything here is built with Xiao Wang as the anchor, and Lin Yuan is not just a game NPC, but the real Lin Yuan who comes to the game to make a guest appearance.

Abbreviation:
GM guest appearance NPC.

Using Shen Lin's supernatural powers as a means, Wang Lu's ghost as a foundation, the memories of Wang Lu who was summoned as an anchor, and the contents of the diary as a script, this virtual game was created.

And Xiao Wang, that is, Wang Lu when he was young, is also the core of this game.

If he is killed, the virtual game will collapse, or be forced to end. From this point of view, this seemingly harmless, well-behaved and cute classmate Xiao Wang is the real BOSS of this game.

Unfortunately.

Judging from the situation of Boss Liu and the others, they probably wouldn't have thought of this. However, their goal is not to complete the game, but to use the game as a basis to explore the past of Taiping Ancient Town.

Lin Yuan naturally wouldn't let them leave.

There is nothing that can be done about it. In this era, he has not yet implanted the memory of Taiping Ancient Town. In the terminology of the game, the map of Taiping Ancient Town has not been completed yet.

If they were really allowed to go to the Taiping Ancient Town of this era, wouldn't they be exposed immediately?
"In this round of the game, the map will be limited to the vicinity of Dadong City. Fortunately, there are enough evil spirits imprisoned in the Caesar Hotel, so it would be a good idea to bring them over to make a cameo appearance."

That's right.

The foreign ghost riders who came to attack Lao Wang’s family of three this time were all extras that Lin Yuan pulled over from the Caesar Hotel. They were NPCs who didn’t even have names. They were used to enrich the game’s plot and make this era more realistic.

At the same time, I also want to take this opportunity to see if I can anchor the consciousness and memory of the Wang family's generation.

However, not all of these foreign ghost riders are NPCs. There are two of them who are real kings and have also been thrown into this game.

In this strange atmosphere, Lin Yuan suddenly raised his head and glanced in the direction of the store entrance. This action was also noticed by Xiao Wang. He did not have time to wipe the noodle soup from the corner of his mouth and asked in confusion: "Brother, are there customers again? Go and do your work, we can do it here."

"There are guests coming, but it doesn't matter. Although we don't have many waiters here, there are enough. Someone will go to receive them."

Lin Yuan smiled and suddenly said, "Xiao Wang, what do you think of my store? Are you interested in helping me?"

Wang Xiao tilted his head, his eyes full of confusion, but before he could speak, Old Wang said quickly: "Thank you for your kindness, boss, but our family has some property and we only have this one son, so I'm sorry."

"Oh, I see. But Xiao Wang, if you want to come to the store in the future, just let me know in advance. All the positions in the store are vacant, and now is a good time to do something new. You can do whatever you want when the time comes." Lin Yuan made the promise with a smile.

"I understand, big brother." Xiao Wang replied crisply.

While they were chatting here, a few more people walked in from the door. They were Cao Yang, Liu San, Xiong Wenwen and Wang Chaling.

They saw what Lin Yuan had just done when he invited Xiao Wang, and it was also a scene that was recorded in Wang Lu's diary. For a moment, they felt as if history had shone into reality.

Of course, except Xiong Wenwen.

When outside, Mingming felt intimidated and alienated by the store manager's age.

But when he saw the store manager, he rushed over regardless of everything and shouted excitedly: "Brother Yuan, Brother Yuan, I finally found you!"

It was only a few meters away, and even with Xiong Wenwen's short legs, she could quickly reach the end.

But when he was about to jump into Lin Yuan's arms, Lin Yuan turned his head and looked over. At this glance, Xiong Wenwen, who was favored by him, suddenly flew into the air, as if she had lost gravity, and floated in the air.

No, not suspended, nor was there a loss of gravity.

Instead, it was as if there was an invisible layer that wrapped up Xiong Wenwen, restricting his movements and speech, just like a small insect wrapped in resin, turning into a ball of lifelike amber.

"Where did this kid come from? He's so enthusiastic. But as far as I can remember, I've never seen him before. Did I recognize the wrong person?" Lin Yuan asked with a puzzled look on his face.

Cao Yang and the others' expressions changed slightly, and they couldn't help but secretly curse Xiong Wenwen for being unreliable.

If this happened in reality, they would definitely step forward to rescue Xiong Wenwen. Even though this was an annoying kid, they were still the heads of the headquarters and colleagues after all.

Can it be here?

Is it just a game, or was it caused by the kid's own rash actions? We must try to save him, but how much will it cost?

just forget it.

But, it really is the Peace Hotel, it really is... the real manager!
"Hello, Boss Lin. My name is Cao Yang, and I'm this kid's colleague. Although he's a little naughty, he doesn't have any bad intentions. I hope you can forgive me, Boss Lin. Of course, if you want to teach this kid a lesson, we'd be happy to see it happen, so that he won't be so reckless in the future and offend people he can't afford to offend, which would be troublesome." Cao Yang said sincerely.

Lin Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Is that so? It seems... you also know me. Can you tell me how you knew about my existence?"

It was obviously just a calm inquiry, but it made Cao Yang and Liu San's faces change drastically.

They seemed to take their knowledge of the store manager for granted, so much so that when they entered the store, they didn't think too much and just called out "Boss Lin" by default.

And Xiong Wenwen even called him "Brother Yuan" directly.

"I found it strange before. Although I did have some friends in the past, they would keep each other's existence secret. Even if they established some power, even if they passed on their existence, they would not just say a few superficial things. So, was your Taiping Town really established by the friends I know?"

Lin Yuan suddenly turned his gaze and looked at Boss Liu, the middle-aged woman and the faceless man who had already finished their noodles.

The faces of the three men changed drastically, and they had already cursed Cao Yang in their hearts, but facing Lin Yuan, who had no killing power at all and instead had a look of doubt, they had to deal with it wholeheartedly.

But how to explain it? "Don't think about lying. No one can lie in front of me." Lin Yuan said calmly, "Just like Lao Wang, although he was looking for a reason to refuse Xiao Wang to work in the store, the reason was real, so I didn't force it. But you are different. Taiping Town should not be established by any of my old friends, right?"

Boss Liu took a deep breath and whispered, "I'm really sorry, Boss Lin. We didn't mean to deceive you, but our origins are indeed a little difficult to explain. If we tell it, we don't know what will happen, so..."

The middle-aged woman quickly added: "Boss Lin, don't get me wrong. We definitely didn't lie this time. But if you really want to know, we will tell you everything we know."

Lin Yuan glanced at the few people calmly, making Boss Liu, the middle-aged woman and the faceless man feel as if they were not wearing any clothes and their bodies and minds were seen through.

no answer.

He looked at Cao Yang and the others again and asked calmly, "What about you guys?"

"If we really want to talk about our origins, our experiences are actually similar to those of Boss Liu and his group. As long as Boss Lin wants to know, we will naturally not hide anything." Liu San said in a deep voice.

Lin Yuan seemed to be thinking about something, but he was actually very happy in his heart.

He is not just an NPC in the game. As a GM who is personally involved in the game, he naturally knows all the information. However, since he is playing the role of an NPC, he naturally has to play it well.

His identity is that of the store manager of this era, and that of the store manager before he completely transformed from a "human" to a "god".

But what is the definition of "Him"?
The past, present and future, all existences are gathered together and become the only one in the long river of time. No matter in which time period we see Him, He is the only one?

If there really is a God in this world, it should be like this.

Just like in the ending of the mysterious resurrection, Yang Jian, who devoured everything, even Yang Jian's existence, and became a god, achieved this level.

But, Yang Jian, is it Yang Jian?
Naturally, isn't it?

The human skin paper does not lie, and it has made it clear very early on that Yang Jian is dead and cannot die any more, so how can he become a god?

If Yang Jian became a god in human form and became a saint in the flesh, then how could he kill Wang Shanshan?

So the question is, when the store manager named Lin Yuan was transformed from a human into a god, was the god who achieved this achievement Lin Yuan, or some kind of existence that devoured Lin Yuan?

"My path is naturally different from Yang Jian's. Even if I want to become a god on earth, I will be the one taking the lead, rather than being a puppet dominated by rules and unable to follow my heart in everything."

"Such a god might be affected by his own desires, but... if becoming a god means adding countless restrictions to oneself, turning oneself into a super worker with no time limit or lifespan, then what is the meaning of becoming a god?"

Now that the definition of Him and God is clear, the character setting will be easy.

"Even if it is God, who has combined the past, present and future to achieve oneness, he will still leave traces of his life as the basis for carrying history. But when encountering an accident that transcends the traces of history, he will also come down. According to God's will, he will choose to eliminate all accidents, or use other means to ensure the correct direction of history to the greatest extent. Or, he will give another self another life to make up for some regrets."

It was clearly just a brief silence, but whether it was Boss Liu, the middle-aged woman, the faceless man, or Cao Yang, Liu San, Xiong Wenwen, and Wang Chaling, they all had a terrifying feeling that a disaster was about to happen.

"This is really not a simple game, at least the store manager isn't! If we die at the hands of the store manager, perhaps we will really die and won't be able to return to reality."

"I was doubting the authenticity of the game before, but now it seems like I've traveled back in time. A fake game can't possibly give me such real pressure!"

"So, this is what it feels like to face death? The supernatural world is too scary. My idea is right. Trying my best to be an ordinary person is the right path! However, ordinary people are too vulnerable to supernatural events. They can't even escape. What should I do? What should I do?"

Finally, Lin Yuan spoke, "Old Wang, Old Lu, and Little Wang, have you all finished your meal? We have some other things to do, so we won't keep you here for now."

Although Xiao Wang is young, he has been brought up by Lao Wang and Lao Lu to see the world and experience battlefields of blood and fire. The atmosphere in front of him is so weird that he naturally feels something. He nodded obediently and let Lao Wang and Lao Lu take him away.

But when he passed by Wang Chaling, he suddenly asked, "Mom and Dad, aren't you leaving with Uncle Wang?"

Lao Wang and Lao Lu's faces changed, and they quickly looked at Lin Yuan, "Boss Lin, don't get me wrong, we are not very familiar with this brother. We just met him once on the road, and he looks a bit like me, so I felt that he was familiar and exchanged a few words with him."

Lin Yuan nodded, "You didn't lie, let's go. I'm not going to eat them, I just have some questions to ask, don't worry."

The last sentence was said to Xiao Wang.

Xiao Wang then nodded and waved his hand obediently, saying, "Goodbye, big brother. I will come again if I have the chance."

After Xiao Wang's family of three left, Lin Yuan said, "Come in and sit down. Forget about eating noodles and all that. Let's talk about your own things first. Most of the people who knew about my existence have already left. Don't tell me that you all look young, but are actually old guys who have lived a second life."

As he spoke, he just waved his hand, and Xiong Wenwen fell to the ground and returned to normal.

But he didn't dare to rush towards Lin Yuan to get close to him. He fled directly behind Cao Yang, not even daring to stick his head out. He was obviously scared.

Cao Yang was also at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

Normally, he and Xiong Wenwen are "enemies" with an age difference of more than ten years between them. As a result, every time they encounter danger, the little guy hides behind him.

Is it because they have quarreled so many times that they have developed feelings for each other and become dependent on each other, or is he simply using himself as a shield?
Cao Yang wasn't sure, and now was not the time to think about this question. Faced with the store manager's question, they seemed to have no other choice.

lie?

Obviously, lying doesn't make sense.

Tell the truth directly?

This does not seem impossible. After all, this is the store manager's game. Faced with a person who can kill his real self through the Internet in the game and can also tell whether someone is lying, they seem to have no other choice.

and……

"It really explains everything. It may not be of no help to us." Cao Yang seemed to have thought of something and finally made a choice, "Boss Lin, this is what happened..."

So, Cao Yang began to tell everything that happened in reality.

This scared the others, especially Captain Liu San, who had also been in contact with the Peace Hotel very early, but he quickly calmed down.

He was not stupid, so he naturally knew the only option at the moment.

But he suddenly thought of something. "The fear of being wiped out of reality in the game just now can prove to a large extent that this is real history, not a virtual game. If so, then He sent us back to history through the game just to make money from our game fees? Or does He want to pass on some information to the store manager in the past through us?"

"That's not right. With the strength shown by the store manager, it's not difficult for him to send the information to his past self. There's no need for us to do anything."

"And does everything we experience in the game really have an impact on the future? The game set in Taiping Ancient Town has gone through two rounds, but it doesn't seem to have caused much change."

"Could it be that this is really just... a game?"

"Or is it that the change has actually already happened, but everything is just going so naturally that we think that everything that has changed is the most real thing?"

Liu San was a little confused. He didn't want to believe that the store manager had spent so much effort, using a power more terrifying than restarting, to make them return to a certain moment in history in the name of a virtual game. He actually had no purpose but to let them play games, or to earn the evil spirits in their hands.

But the reality never requires so many reasons, and it always seems like a huge makeshift team.

But he suddenly discovered that as Cao Yang spoke, some inexplicable changes had taken place in the store manager, but he couldn't tell what these changes were.

At the same time, after Xiao Wang and his family of three left the Peace Hotel, the bluestone path that they had walked for a long time on the way here was now finished the moment they stepped out of the Peace Hotel's door.

"That's some kind of supernatural phenomenon, not a real road."

Feeling the evil spirit in his body regain contact, Lao Wang felt a little complicated and a little regretful for some reason.

But he quickly collected his thoughts and looked at the large group of evil spirits in front of him with fierce eyes.

He exchanged a glance with Old Lu beside him, then took Xiao Wang's hand and walked into the group of evil spirits. He showed no fear at all, as if they were the real evil spirits and these evil spirits were just ordinary people without any supernatural powers.

This is true.

When Chen Qiaoyang sensed something was wrong, the group of ghosts he controlled had been torn apart and suppressed by a small part. This scared him, and he quickly collected all the evil ghosts and surrounded himself. Then he looked at the family of three who caused all this.

A middle-aged couple and a little kid?

Chen Qiaoyang's eyes twitched. "Why are there so many perverts in this era? Cao Yang and his gang are easier to bully. It's a pity that they got away."

"Chinese?"

Lao Wang casually threw the ghost that he had torn into two halves to both sides. His cold eyes directly penetrated the protection formed by the evil ghost and fell on Chen Qiaoyang.

Although Chen Qiaoyang was afraid of Lao Wang's strength, he did not want to tarnish his reputation as a ghost shepherd, so he snorted coldly, "Of course he is a Chinese. Who do you think you are?"

Lao Wang did not answer. He glanced at the ghosts controlled by Chen Qiaoyang, who were obviously revived from foreign ghost controllers. His expression eased a little, "I didn't expect that after two or three years abroad, there would be so many outstanding juniors in China. Work hard, you have good abilities."

After saying that, he took Lao Lu and Xiao Wang to Dadong City.

Chen Qiaoyang's expression changed constantly. He wanted to catch up with Lao Wang and fight him, but he finally held back. "It's not that I'm scared, but I have to retain my manpower and get rid of Cao Yang and the others first. Yes, that's right!"
