Simulates history, but Chongzhen is the Divine Emperor at the beginning

Chapter 199 World Line Coverage!
"A perfect ending?"

Zhou Liang was stunned at first when he saw Wang Chengen's speech, but then suddenly a light bulb went off in his head, as if he had grasped something crucial...

What is a perfect ending?

In other words, what exactly does the perfect ending that you are pursuing look like?
The answer is simple:
Defeat the God-Emperor, but at the same time preserve the existence of the illusory world while the God-Emperor is defeated!

This is a false proposition, because the Divine Emperor and the illusory world are born and die together. They prosper and suffer together. There is no such thing as saving the big and abandoning the small, or saving the small and abandoning the big.

Therefore, no matter how many times "Zhou Liang" in the simulated world reincarnates, he will never find a perfect ending...

Therefore, if there is a way to solve the problem in reality, then this solution will definitely not exist in the simulated world!

So, where does it exist?

The answer is obvious: it is in reality!

Or rather, it is in a real simulator!
"The simulation and reality are exactly the same. Both are constants with absolutely no breakthroughs. Therefore, the breakthrough must lie in the variables... and the variables between reality and simulation have always only been in the simulator!"

The more Zhou Liang thought about it, the more his thoughts became clear:
"And what is the simulator's primary function?"

Is it to simulate the world line and then get information and prizes from it?
No, the main function of the simulator has never been simulation... Simulation is just its prerequisite function, and its main function has always been "world line coverage"!
In other words, the only breakthrough point in the world is "world line coverage"!
"I used to resist this feature because replacing the real world with the simulation line would have terrible consequences. It would be equivalent to destroying the real world."

"But now, things seem to have changed..."

Zhou Liang's eyes flashed with an uneasy light...

After thinking for a moment, he asked directly:
"System, if I choose to overwrite the world line now... what will be the result? Will it destroy reality?"

[Ding! Back to the host, if it is now... then reality will not be destroyed!]

really!

After receiving a positive answer, Zhou Liang was immediately very excited:
"I got it right!"

World line coverage...What is world line coverage?
That is naturally to "cover" one world line on another world line and replace one with another!
Under normal circumstances, this "covering" behavior will of course lead to the destruction of the covered area... But what if there is nothing on the covered world line?

Just like the current simulated world, "Zhou Liang" has actually destroyed the virtual world. If this world line is overlaid on reality, wouldn't there be nothing?
Nothing, what can it cover? !

In other words, what kind of consequences will such void coverage lead to?

Excited Zhou Liang quickly asked:
"Since it won't lead to the destruction of the world, then what will be the result?"

"Will it be a perfect ending?"

[It's hard to say with the system... But you can give it a try. After all, it won't destroy the world.]

Try it...

Zhou Liang's eyes flashed:

Indeed, although I don’t know what the result will be, as long as it is not the destruction of the world, then it is acceptable...at worst, I can just give it a try!

It's free anyway, why not try it a little...

With excitement, Zhou Liang thought again and again, and finally made his own choice:

"system!"

[Ding! Host, just follow my instructions!]

He took a deep breath and gave this most crucial order in a voice trembling with tension and excitement:
"Activate the world line overlay function!"

[Ding! Do you want to select the current simulation line for real-world overlay?]

"Yes!"

[Ding! Host confirmed!]

【…】

[Ding! Please be advised, host. As the world lines overlap, some unusual changes will inevitably occur... But rest assured, host, none of these changes will have any harmful effects on you. The simulation system will ensure your absolute safety!]

[Ding! Executing the overwriting task...]

[Overwriting...]

【…】

……

[“Ding! The world line is being covered, please don’t panic…”]

[Just after Wang Chengen spoke about the perfect ending, you, still dazed and pondering the underlying meaning, suddenly heard this system notification from somewhere...]

You were stunned for a moment, then gave a helpless smile: What do you call this? It's like searching high and low for something, yet it finally comes to you without any effort!

[Although you, being in the middle of the situation, don't know if this is truly the perfect ending your "other self" desires, since he's already made the decision, it means he possesses crucial information you don't know, and this crucial information just happens to confirm that the current ending more closely matches the definition of a perfect ending.]

[In this way, he has finally achieved the realistic ending he desired...]

【Thinking of this, you can't help but reveal a look of relief. 】

[Previously, you'd been feeling ashamed of your irresponsible pursuit of an ending. After all, no matter what, you were only concerned with yourself and not others... This choice went against your moral principles.]

Therefore, although you are about to usher in your own perfect ending, a huge rock is always weighing down your heart. The shame of receiving rewards without any merit makes your heart never feel satisfied...

【And now, good news suddenly came! 】

[My perfect ending is no longer a selfish one, but one that benefits both parties... This is undoubtedly a great psychological comfort.]

[I finally helped him...]

"I'm glad I could help you!"

[You smile and greet the "other self" in the dark...]

[At the same time, Wang Chengen beside him seemed to realize something and asked curiously, "Is it... that the world line is about to overlap?"]

【"Yes."】

You nod sincerely to him, "Thank you for the tip!"

Wang Chengen was flattered by your unanimous thanks, and waved his hands repeatedly, not wanting to take credit for it...

[But he was still very curious. Although he didn't really believe in the outrageous worldview you just said, what you said was still very attractive after all.]

He pondered for a moment, then suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "Please, Heavenly Lord, send me to the Western Paradise!"

【Um? 】

[Faced with this request, you are very surprised: "Why?"]

Wang Chengen sighed, "Let the Heavenly Lord know..."

His reason was simple: while he didn't quite believe in outrageous things like "world line overlap" and "Western Paradise," the Divine Emperor had indeed passed away...

[Without the divine protection granted by the Divine Emperor, his spirit would not be able to exist for long.]

Rather than slowly fading away, it's better to risk your life and try to survive!

[“No matter how illusory the Western Paradise is, it is ultimately a choice. If I don’t make that choice, then I will truly be doomed…”]

Wang Chengen apologized, "Please grant me a chance to live, so that I can have something to rely on."

“Whether or not the Western Paradise really exists, I am willing to believe in its existence!”

[“Please, Heavenly Lord, take action!”]

[Looking at the old eunuch, you didn't say much, only slowly said, "Okay."]

【After saying that, you stretched out your invisible hand. 】

[Grab it, and refine it instantly!] […]

[When Wang Chengen completely vanished from the universe, you were finally free from all worries.]

"How long?"

You ask the existence in the dark.

"Only the last quarter of an hour," it replied.

【A quarter of an hour?】

You nodded. "Then I guess I can still find a good pose for myself..."

What posture?

[Your gaze rests on the old crooked tree not far away...]

[A moment later, you used your telekinesis as a "hemp rope" and hung yourself on the old crooked tree!]

[But you're not actually cosplaying as Emperor Chongzhen, but rather as Odin from Norse mythology, because Chongzhen's head was hung, while you're hanging your feet...]

[“Odin, the Norse god king, once hung himself upside down under the World Tree, offering himself as a sacrifice to seek wisdom from himself…”]

“Now, I also offer myself as a sacrifice to another self, begging to transcend the shackles of fate!”

You let out a hearty laugh, then began to prepare your final poem for this life... This life is different from the past. From now on, you will completely escape the fate of endless reincarnation, and lead the entire world to live forever in the "Western Paradise"... This is a great salvation!

[And your escape from fate doesn't just save the people in the simulation. More importantly, your choice will usher in a grand transformation called "World Line Overlay." At that time, whether in the simulation or the real world, everyone will be truly saved and will no longer have to endure the oppression of the God-Emperor!]

[So, your last poem must also be consistent with this free and easy spirit! ]

What kind of suicide poem could possibly express such feelings? After a moment's thought, you came up with a plan...

【I only hear you chanting.】

"At that time, we were young and spent our springtime, with beautiful horses galloping and wine splashing.

Love, hate, and vengeance come with the waves, and the summer cicadas' song wakes the night away.

I planted red lotus in the long river of time, and my tears dried up when good times returned.

At this moment, the vicissitudes of life have ascended to the dance pavilion, and all spirits are waiting for orders without any bridle! ”】

【All spirits are waiting for orders without reins! 】

[After reciting the poem, you let out a long laugh, as if all the thoughts of three lifetimes and three worlds have vanished into thin air, leaving only good wishes for "your other self" and the people in reality...]

[And this situation and this scene can be said to have a beginning and an end. ]

[Emperor Chongzhen once hanged himself from the old crooked tree, thus creating this illusory world. Now, you are also hanging yourself from the old crooked tree, bringing this illusory world to an end!]

[Chongzhen hangs his head, and you, Zhou Liang, hang your feet!]

【There is a beginning and an end! There is a beginning and an end! 】

【…】

[Ding! The world line is being covered...]

Current coverage: 1%…10%…50%…99%…

……

As the progress bar continued to advance, Zhou Liang looked around nervously and excitedly, as if he wanted to observe the wonderful changes brought about by the world line coverage.

But unfortunately, he didn't see any changes...

This situation made Zhou Liang murmur:
what's the situation?
Could it be that the simulation system is exaggerating and is actually unable to achieve the miracle of "world line coverage"?

Or is it that, because the analog line is dead, there is nothing to cover?
Zhou Liang muttered: The former is unlikely... After all, the simulation system is still very powerful, it shouldn't brag about such meaningless things.

And if it's the latter...

So what's the point of covering it? It's like this before covering it, and it's like this after covering it... doesn't that mean there's no covering at all?
Uh... can't it be true?

Zhou Liang's heart tightened, fearing that such a ridiculous outcome would occur...

And at this moment, the progress bar finally completed the whole journey!

[Ding! Current coverage: 100%!]

Zhou Liang suddenly felt dizzy after hearing an exceptionally crisp ding sound!
When he regained his vision, a boundless world had quietly appeared before his eyes...

This is a perfect world with beautiful mountains and clear waters, and spring all year round!
And the products are extremely rich, all the beautiful things that people can imagine can be easily found here:
Here there are rivers flowing with milk and honey all year round, here there are endless delicious foods to eat, and here there are endless beautiful scenery to see!

There are also hundreds of millions of people living there, and they are all extremely happy...

All the beautiful words in the world are not enough to describe its beauty, so only two words of adjectives remain in my mind:
"Perfect!"

Zhou Liang couldn't help but praise sincerely!
This place is definitely not the human world, because no matter how good the human world is, it can never be called perfect, so this place can only be...

"Welcome to the Western Paradise!"

A young man's laughter made Zhou Liang subconsciously turn his head:
I saw a young man with a simple and extraordinary temperament standing beside me without knowing when!
What surprised Zhou Liang the most was that this young man looked exactly like himself when he was young...

So, a name came to mind:
"Zhou Liang?"

The man smiled and saluted:
"It's Zhou Liang! Zhou Liang greets me!"

"However, we still can't have the same name... How about this, you can just call me Zhou Zifang!"

This was the first time Zhou Liang saw the "other self" in the simulation. Although it was the first time they met, they did not feel unfamiliar with each other... Although he knew very well that it was himself, another self!
"Zifang is truly a dragon and phoenix, a symbol of the sun and the sky!"

Zhou Liang couldn't help but admire.

Zhou Zifang couldn't help but roll his eyes: "You and I are one... When you praise me, aren't you actually praising yourself?"

Zhou Liang laughed heartily, and then sighed:

"To be honest... I never thought that the Western Paradise really existed. I never expected... it's actually real!"

Being in the "Western Paradise", Zhou Liang could fully understand what this concept was.

This "Western Paradise" is not an objective world, but a world that exists only relative to the subjective... So it is normal that others cannot see it, and even whether it exists or not is actually a question mark.

Because this subjective world is not much different from hypochondria.

The scenery in it is actually not realistic at all. If it is perfect in every way, it also means that it does not exist...

"But...what does that matter?"

Zhou Zifang smiled and said:
"It doesn't matter whether it exists or not, as long as it exists for me!"

"And it is precisely because of its existence that I can talk to you..."

As he spoke, his expression became serious:

"My Lord, listen carefully!"

"Although I have become one with you this time thanks to the world's coverage, this is only temporary. Before long, Xitian and I will both disappear from your perspective, so our time together will be brief."

"So, you must achieve a truly perfect ending during this time."

“It’s the perfect ending to reality!”
