Collapse Iron: What does it mean to broaden the fate of four people in one sentence?

The creation engine stopped.

Its 800-meter-tall body stands quietly on the snowfield, like a silent mountain.

Lin Si sat on its shoulder, her legs dangling in mid-air, swinging back and forth.

It was tiring, but it was really exhilarating.

He looked up at the moon over Beloborg.

Strangely enough, even though the world has been shrouded in snow and wind for seven hundred years, the moon remains large and round. The clear moonlight shines down, illuminating the entire snowfield.

"Little Core."

He spoke, his tone as casual as if he were chatting with a friend.

Why do you call me uncle?

He had been thinking about this problem for quite a while.

Just ask directly; using platitudes is too troublesome.

The star core bounced on his shoulder, its light flashing a few times, as if it were thinking seriously.

"I don't know, Uncle."

Its voice carried a sense of entitlement.

"The moment I saw you, I felt like you were my uncle, just like when I first saw Aunt Xingxiao."

Lin Si raised an eyebrow.

Another screech.

He must have heard that name somewhere before.

Never mind, let's get down to business first.

"My body now is that of a woman."

He looked down at himself, at Bronya's body, gray hair in three ponytails, and a certain amount of weight in her chest.

"Why don't you call me auntie?"

The star core's light paused for a moment, as if it were looking at something.

"But Uncle, your soul is male."

Its tone was very serious.

"The soul is the essence of humanity."

Lin Si: "......."

He was silent for a long time.

The moonlight shone on his face, and the wind blew past his ears, carrying the unique chill of the snowfield.

He didn't speak, but just stared at the outline of Belloberg in the distance.

He was thinking about a problem.

Why can the star core see his soul?

The game did not ask the player's gender at the beginning.

But since it's a creation of genius, it's normal that it can tell the player's gender without asking.

But if it's a creation of a genius, would its purpose be so simple?

What exactly are the designers of this game trying to do? To make players become "rogue bosses"? To make players develop feelings for the AI?

No.

His brow furrowed.

He suddenly remembered the book "Star Mysteries" that he had seen at the General's Mansion that afternoon.

Because of the existence of its primordial force, the Star God can exist at any time and in any place.

As long as there is the driving force behind their destiny at that time and place.

One certificate is valid forever.

So even if this is a game, as long as the game is "big" enough, big enough to bear the driving force of the Star God...

Is it really considered a game then?

There is also a description of the "wisdom" star god, the All-Knowing One.

"For the sake of the universe's future, the All-Knowing One will anchor at what He considers the best moment to obtain a better answer for the continuation of the universe's survival."

In other words, there are infinitely many parallel universes in this world, but because of the existence of the All-Knowing One, the current universe no longer has parallel universes, only the one He anchored in, the one He considers to be 'the best universe'.

The stellar core is the creation of the destroying star god. This belief is widespread throughout the universe.

Considering that the Star Gods can exist at any time and any place, and that this game is a "genius" creation.

Although we don't know which genius did it.

But there are only a handful of people in the entire universe who can make such a thing.

so.....

Was the genius behind this game trying to extract "more possibilities" from Bodhidharma?

So, is this game equivalent to a parallel universe?

So, are the various star gods in this game also real?

Thinking about this, Lin Si suddenly understood something.

It was not Bronya who received the Amber King's glance.

It's him.

That night in his dream, he received a glance from the Amber King.

The nine arrows of the Emperor's Bow, Hipe's hand, Aha's laughter, the Amber King's gaze...

That's why the lance is reawakened when he controls Bronya.

Lin Si frowned.

If what he thinks is true, then his "netizen Aha" simply has the words "not simple" written all over his face.

This isn't a closed beta test; it's practically kicking him into a parallel universe.

And this game may not only be about Belloberg.

The information I got from Schwarzkopf suggests that the Star Peace Corporation might actually exist in this game...

Therefore, because of the existence of the Star God, this game and all the NPCs in it are real people who exist in a parallel universe.

Lin Si felt that he had figured out the truth.

"No wonder he's a genius."

He murmured softly, his tone carrying an indescribable quality.

"Ordinary people can't even take a single step."

But then he shook his head, feeling it was a little unreal.

The idea that game characters are real people from parallel worlds is still a bit too absurd.

Even if he figured it out himself, there was still a voice in his head saying: "Is it really that bad?"

It's like you've been playing a game all day and suddenly realize that the NPCs on the screen actually have their own lives, their own pain, and their own hopes.

Then you have to go back and do your homework.

Isn't that strange?

Strange.

But then he realized that all descriptions of "genius" in the world were about turning the impossible into the possible.

This seems to be something that is taken for granted by geniuses.

Then I remembered the way Cocolia held Bronya and cried.

I recall Oleg saying, "What is there to be afraid of?"

I remember Clara walking barefoot on the cold ground, bowing to each homeless person and saying thank you.

I think of Pera, Lingke, Shiluva, and Xier.

Those expressions, those tones, those subtle gestures—they don't seem like something that can be written in code.

Lin Si remained silent for a long time.

Then he laughed.

Forget it.

Who cares if it's true or not.

Let's finish setting the flag first.

He looked at the star core again, his tone becoming more relaxed.

"Little Core, Uncle is going to rest for a while."

The star core flashed.

“When Uncle isn’t around, you stay with this body. Do whatever she tells you to do.”

He paused for a moment.

"Uncle will be back tomorrow."

The star core paused for a moment, and its light dimmed slightly.

"Uncle, are you really coming back tomorrow?"

There was a hint of caution in that voice, like that of a child who had been abandoned many times.

Lin Si smiled.

"Of course."

"Your uncle has set a goal. If I don't achieve it, I'll be utterly disgraced!"

The star core's light instantly became joyful, bouncing and leaping in the air.

"Okay, Uncle! I'll wait for you to come back! I'll definitely listen to her!"

Lin Si smiled and shook her head.

Then he closed his eyes and quit the game.

The moonlight is still there.

The creation engine is still running.

The star core was still bouncing on his shoulder.

But the person standing 800 meters in the air has changed.

Bronya opened her eyes.

She still held the lance in her hand, eight hundred meters above the ground, the wind whistling past her ears.

On its shoulder, an irregularly shaped little crystal was bouncing around happily.

"Uncle! When are you coming back tomorrow?"

Bronya: "..."

She was silent for three seconds.

Then she took a deep breath and said in a very restrained tone:

"I'm not your uncle."

The stellar core's tumultuous activity ceased.

It tilted slightly, as if it were sizing her up.
