Immortal I Speedrun Supernatural Game
Chapter 547 He Wants to Become a Real Person
"You...what do you mean?"
The things Peanut said after waking up left White Tea somewhat bewildered.
She instinctively avoided eye contact and asked, "Where did you learn all this?"
At this, Peanut slowly released his grip on her shoulders, looked at Bai Cha with an extremely complicated expression, and said:
"Because I saw it, or more precisely, my memories as white tea were awakened by the white pagoda."
"I am indeed a copy of white tea, but not yours; I am the original white tea."
Upon hearing this, even though Bai Cha had already anticipated it, she still felt somewhat helpless and emotional.
The two of them are standing here.
One is a backup created by the main program, and the other is a copy created privately.
They are clearly the same person in a certain sense, yet they are two completely different individuals from the white tea that Baita wanted, at least in terms of their thoughts.
"Go on, I can accept it," Bai Cha said with a sigh.
After she finished speaking, she saw a bag of popcorn being handed to her.
Wu Wang smiled and gestured for her to have a couple of bites.
He shrugged and joked, "Cheer up. Think of it this way: you're like the leading lady in a movie right now. The story revolves around you. You don't get many chances to hear your own story from other people."
Faced with his description, Bai Cha took the popcorn and absentmindedly stuffed it into her mouth.
Peanut continued:
"After Baita brought me back, he seemed to realize that he could no longer deceive me as before, so he simply imprisoned me in his electronic prison and also awakened the dormant memories in my body through data."
Her gaze fell on the data cables hanging in the air.
Then I looked at my skin, which had returned to normal.
He began, “After being connected to those strange data cables, I was immersed in a dream, like a spectator sitting in front of a big screen watching memories I had never experienced playing on a loop.”
“I see that since you came of age, your body has become increasingly weak, and no medical treatment can cure it. Even the [Eternal Life Field] cannot work on you.”
"At that time, due to his exceptional programming talent, Bai Ta was given the professional identity of 'Monitoring and Maintenance Technician' by the 'City System,' responsible for managing and debugging the monitoring equipment in Eternal City."
"It was during this process that he noticed that some places in the city would occasionally experience lag. At first, he thought it was a bug in the surveillance footage, but after several checks, he still couldn't find the cause. In order to find out the truth, he went to the places where the lag occurred himself."
"Unfortunately, the rendering stuttered again, and the White Tower got stuck outside the program."
"Fortunately, the process only lasted for a moment, and he was not completely deleted by the program."
"But from then on, Bai Ta realized that this was an electronic world created by programming. He was also affected by his own code and was able to vaguely see the underlying code that made up matter. At that time, his sister Bai Cha was dying."
At this point, Peanut hugged herself tightly, as if she felt an endless chill enveloping her.
After all, during this process, she could also personally experience Bai Cha's near-death despair and panic.
"At that time, the [Eternal Life Field] had just been developed, and the hospital had not yet been completely shut down. With a desperate mentality, Bai Ta secretly sneaked into the hospital to examine Bai Cha and found that she did not have any strange terminal illness at all, but that her code itself was flawed."
"Logically speaking, her character's code shouldn't be able to run at all. I don't know what kind of bug caused it to run with difficulty, but a flaw is a flaw. As time goes by, the more things the younger sister experiences and the more data she generates, the more difficult it becomes for the code to run."
"Her illness is time."
When Peanut got to this point...
Wu Wang tossed a popcorn high into the air.
Then, after catching it precisely with his mouth, he chewed and mumbled indistinctly, "..."
"Let me guess, after realizing that she couldn't be cured by normal means, Baita's choice was to try to temporarily stop Baicha's code from running, or rather, extract and store it so that a way to repair her could be found in the future?"
Upon hearing Wu Wang's words, Peanut showed a surprised expression.
“Indeed, that was what the White Tower initially envisioned, but…”
Before he could finish speaking, Wu Wang interrupted, "But because he is not yet proficient in modifying the code, he has not yet truly succeeded."
Peanut's expression grew increasingly complicated.
He nodded and said, "Yes, until Bai Cha died, he was unable to extract all of her code. He only stored the most core part. How do you know that?"
Wu Wang shrugged and replied, "Immersion, my friend, can't you be a little more immersive when watching a movie? If it were me, I would do the same. It's always safest to have everything under your own control."
"I can even guess that after he extracted that core part, if he was determined to revive the real white tea, he would definitely worry that too many experiments might damage the core code. Therefore, after constantly improving his ability to control the code, Bai Ta would choose to copy the core code and use the copy to conduct experiments. Only after ensuring that everything was perfect would he truly begin to revive the white tea."
"As for the body that, in the White Tower's eyes, was just an empty shell without a soul after the core code was extracted, he let it go and be reborn."
"After all, he can't let others know that he extracted Bai Cha's code, and he also needs a Bai Cha after 'reincarnation' as a cover."
"And so, we have the [Reincarnated White Tea] standing before me now, and you, the [Copy Peanut]."
These remarks left Peanut speechless with shock.
Listening to Wu Wang's words, she even wondered if he had just shared that dream with her.
The entire process proceeded with almost no deviation.
"No...that's right. White Tower has been constantly improving its control over code. Every now and then, it pretends to be [reborn], but in reality, it secretly alters its social identity to avoid being caught by the [City System]."
"He had previously only been secretly using the copied core code for basic experiments, but not long ago, his control finally broke through to the point of creating characters, so he used the copied core code to create me..."
"I was just a resurrection vessel he prepared for Bai Cha... an experiment..."
The more Peanut talked, the more dejected he became.
However, Wu Wang narrowed his eyes after hearing these words.
He looked around at the electronic screens.
He frowned and said, "It's not just that. If simply copying code as a container could revive Bai Cha, then he wouldn't have needed to become a heretic, nor would he have gone to the point of destroying the Eternal City as you described. In the end, he still hasn't solved the problem of the code's defects."
Bai Cha also suddenly looked at the peanuts.
Yes, the original code for the white tea product was flawed, and the code extracted by the white tower was not complete.
This is the worst of the worst.
How can we revive the original White Tea and ensure she doesn't die again?
Peanut's expression turned serious as he looked at Wu Wang and said, "He's come up with a plan, inspired by you guys..."
"Oh, I see." Wu Wang smiled and immediately understood.
He finally understood why the White Tower had captured [Red-crowned Crane] and was trying to study the Spirit Disaster players.
The two's riddle-like conversation left Bai Cha, standing nearby, feeling anxious.
He looked at Wu Wang pitifully and said, "Sir... could you please explain?"
In response, Wu Wang shrugged and said, "You should know, or rather, be able to sense, that I don't actually belong to this world."
Bai Cha nodded.
After all, she had witnessed so many things together. She knew perfectly well just how far an ordinary heretic could go.
Clearly, Wu Wang, Ying Luo, and others do not fall into this category.
It's just that no one has made it clear.
"Simply put, you are game characters in an electronic program, while I am a real person outside the program, only now I've been digitized."
"What Baita wants to do is to break free from the program and become a real human being, so that there will be no such thing as code defects once you are free from electronic programs."
"But it's obvious that turning a two-dimensional anime character into a three-dimensional otaku is not something he can do on his own."
"Therefore, he needs to rely on something powerful enough to defy the laws of physics to help him, such as the [city system] that sustains the existence of this world."
This is what the White Tower really intends to do after taking over the [City System]!
All those slogans and promises he made before, such as making the Eternal City a better place, resisting the oppressive force of the perfect social order, and giving heretics a world where they could do whatever they wanted, were all lies.
This is why Peanut became so desperate after learning the truth.
Her memories are fabricated, her existence is false, and even the goal she has always believed in and fought for is a lie of the White Tower.
No one could accept this.
Bai Cha's expression grew increasingly grim as he said, "But if the [City System] is used to save himself and my original self, wouldn't the Eternal City be..."
Snapped--
Wu Wang snapped his fingers.
"You guessed right. He will treat the [City System] as a simple battery, putting all the computing power into reviving his sister and advancing his dimension. He will not waste a single bit of it to maintain the existence of this electronic city."
"The Eternal City, including all its characters, will disappear."
"Of course, if he really did these things for his sister, then I take back my previous sarcasm towards him. This guy is actually quite nice; he's a family man too."
No wonder Peanut said that White Tower was crazy.
He couldn't even be sure that this method would succeed.
However, once implemented, the destruction of the Eternal City was inevitable.
"Then now he..."
Bai Cha frowned, somewhat puzzled.
Since they entered the mini-city, they haven't seen the White Tower at all.
Even after arriving at this electronic temple, and despite the countless deaths and injuries among the heretics, he did not appear.
Peanut's breathing became rapid.
He said, trembling, "He's already gone to find the [City System]!"
Upon hearing this, Wu Wang raised an eyebrow.
Hmm? That's strange. Isn't it true that you can't enter the Eternal Building from the White Tower?
How did you find a solution so quickly? What happened along the way?
No! He was fighting with me the whole time!
Uh... wait... they fought with me...
The White Tower seems to have some expertise in copying code, and I happen to have the qualifications to enter the [Eternal Building].
Haha, what a coincidence...
I'm raiding his hometown, he's raiding the underbelly of Eternal City, everyone's busy with their own things.
Wu Wang scratched his face slightly embarrassedly and said, "Uh, mine, my private Marseille."
peanut:"?"
White Tea: "?"
For some reason, Yan Shuangying suddenly started apologizing.
But this guy has done a lot of bizarre things, and the two of them have almost gotten used to it.
Then, Wu Wang took out a communication device from his pocket.
He said to them, "Everyone, please go to the [Eternal Tower], there's a boss battle waiting for you there!"
"Don't worry about being blocked outside. If those two bosses are already fighting, they won't have time to manage the building's access control anymore."
On the other end of the device were naturally players like Sakura and the Spirit Disaster.
Upon hearing Wu Wang's signal, they all responded and headed towards the [Eternal Building].
White Tea and Peanut were also about to set off, but Wu Wang stopped them and asked, "Where are you two going?"
"Go to the Eternal Tower and stop the White Tower!" the two said in unison.
Upon hearing this, Wu Wang rolled his eyes.
He spread his hands and attacked without any regard for the psychological state of the two:
"Is this some kind of lame joke? What are you two going to do to stop the White Tower? Please, do you want to recall how easy it was for the White Tower to capture you and hang you up like a mechanical angel? Your methods of attacking him are as ridiculous as hanging him with noodles."
His sarcastic remarks made the two of them both angry and ashamed.
Because that is indeed the case.
"But... are we just supposed to sit here and do nothing?" Peanut said unwillingly.
She now wishes she could personally pin the White Pagoda to the ground and beat it up.
Making her sit quietly and wait is torture.
Seeing that Bai Cha had the same expression, Wu Wang coughed twice and then gently snapped his fingers.
Snapped!
The next second, the surrounding electronic data cables swarmed up and wrapped around the two of them.
Before the two could react, the data cables had already unraveled, revealing their completely new selves.
Bai Cha was enveloped in a silver-gray one-shoulder floor-length dress, as if the purest moonlight had been broken down and draped over her body.
Peanut wore a deep-sea blue velvet strapless dress, resembling the deep blue aurora refined from the dark night.
As Wu Wang took a step forward, his clothes transformed into a classic black tuxedo suit. At first glance, it was extremely simple, yet it possessed an obsidian-like refinement and elegance, meticulously polished by time and experience.
He looked at the two women, who were filled with confusion and bewilderment, and smiled:
"Of course I won't let you get bored."
"I need you to come with me to an awards ceremony that starts early."
"Oh, stop wearing that bitter, resentful look on your face. Smile. You know, you can't be considered well-dressed without a smile."
After saying that, Wu Wang produced a seemingly old book in his hand.
The message appeared above in a format visible only to him—
[The Devil's Speech]
Now, he needs to take back the [Suicide Champion] that is destined to be his. (End of Chapter)
