Star Rail Simulation, but Fate is Crazy

[Speaking of this, she couldn't help but admire the people at the Danding Division.]

In her eyes, it was truly remarkable that the Danding Division could come up with such a miraculous thing.

[This thing has many benefits for the Xianzhou Alliance. It seems to have injected a powerful impetus into the alliance's development and prosperity. It can be said to be a major innovation.]

As you listen to her description, the terrifying scene of the so-called Crucible of Life involuntarily emerges in your mind.

[Body parts from different civilizations, full of vibrant vitality, tumble and simmer in a giant furnace.]

[Eventually, a purer essence was extracted.]

[And it is continuously provided to the wealthy who are eager for immortality.]

"What about the brain?" You continued to ask, suppressing the churning in your stomach.

“Oh, this one.”

She said this lightly.

"Due to the impact of the Emperor's Wars, we are hesitant to use artificial intelligence."

"So someone from the Industrial and Manufacturing Department came up with a compromise: we can just use these brain-mortgaging guys as replacements."

"As long as their memories are erased and their emotions are removed, it will become a perfect intelligent butler."

"Both the Robot Pet Company and the Interstellar Smart Home Company say this technology is great!"

[“As for its other uses, you’ll see them in a few days…”]

She even gave you a sneak peek.

Outside the simulator, Bai Ge stared blankly at the scene displayed in the simulator.

At this moment, his heart was in turmoil, and the only way to describe it was with the four words "greatly shocked".

Is this the Xianzhou Alliance?

Is this something the Xianzhou Alliance can do?

There are different levels of longevity transactions.

Use the living, vital limbs of the civilizations you rule as fuel.

And the cruel method of using real human brains to create intelligent products...

Look at what the Immortal Boat Alliance has become.

Where is Lan (the hunting star god)?

What about Nanook (the Star-Destroying God)?

Don’t you think this Xianzhou Alliance is too urbanized?

Come and clean it up!

Fallen Immortal Boat: Chapter 94: A Strange Smile

As you listened to what this woman before you said, it felt like a powerful earthquake had struck your heart, completely shattering your worldview.

[However, you know that it is not time for complete collapse yet.]

Life goes on. You take a deep breath, suppressing the turmoil in your heart. You silently pick up your book again and begin to focus on reviewing.

[And the woman who occupied your mother's body seemed to have truly transformed back into the gentle mother you once remembered.]

【I will take care of you meticulously, love you wholeheartedly, and give you everything without reservation.】

[However, whenever you accidentally look into her eyes, you will always see a different kind of "love" in her eyes.]

[That gaze was like looking at one's favorite little animal. It seemed fond, but it also revealed an indescribable strangeness and alienation.]

[19 years old: This year is a crucial year in your life—the year you take the college entrance examination.]

【It was as if it had been agreed upon.】

[It seems like a carefully planned drama, I don’t know when it started. ]

[On your planet, a wide variety of technologies, almost magical, have sprung up like mushrooms after rain.]

[Intelligent compound eyes can give the wearer superhuman vision;]

Personality implants, which can integrate specific personality traits into the user's mind;

[Dream tutoring, where you can instill knowledge in your dreams... 弍九^qiVI咎哟}爸爸锍...]

You watched helplessly as your classmates were equipped with all sorts of testing equipment, as if everyone was caught up in a crazy technological competition.

【And you still rely on your own brain to learn. 】

【therefore.】

Your grades have begun to plummet. Once at the top of your class, your ranking has plummeted.

[The attentive class teacher noticed the abnormal decline in your grades and learned the reason for your decline.]

[He contacted your mother out of concern, hoping to discuss ways to help you get back on track.]

【Later, after you returned home.】

"Don't blame me, kid."

[After your mother learned of this, she looked at you helplessly, her eyes tinged with guilt, yet also with a hint of indifference.]

"Your mother mortgaged everything to the Xianzhou Life Experience Company. I can't afford to borrow money at high interest rates just for you to get those learning resources."

You just stared at her in silence.

You stared at her intently, anger and hatred burning in your eyes, and spoke word by word, "I will kill you."

[The tone was firm and resolute.]

“After the college entrance exam!”

　- [“Yeah, I’ll wait for you.”]

She's glued to a cooking video, learning how to cook for her kids, and responds to you with a gentle smile, as if what you said was just a joke.

[There's no doubt that in this college entrance exam filled with all sorts of magical technologies, you unsurprisingly failed.]

【741 points.】

This result doesn't seem bad, but when you see your ranking tens of thousands of places away, you feel a mixture of emotions.

“I failed the exam.”

You stare at your results, a smile of relief appearing on your face.

[That smile was mixed with helplessness towards this crazy world and a complex emotion of finally being free.]

[Just like that, you dragged your slightly tired body back home slowly.]

[As soon as I entered the house, I saw the "mother" sighing and crying.]

[Seeing this scene, your heart suddenly tightens, as if being tightly grasped by an invisible hand.]

[In a trance, you seem to see your real mother again, the gentle and loving mother who loves you wholeheartedly.]

【But it only takes a moment for you to wake up. 】

[The person before me is nothing more than a monster in my mother's skin.]

Without hesitation, you walked straight into the kitchen and reached out to grab the kitchen knife that was shining coldly.

【Then, he walked towards her step by step with steady and firm steps.】

[Hearing this, the "mother" cried even harder, tears streaming down her face like beads from a broken string.]

[He kept muttering some touching words. But you just watched this scene coldly, without a trace of pity in your eyes.]

[Then, you raised the kitchen knife high and slashed it with a sharp, decisive movement.]

【There was a "click" sound.】

[A huge human head instantly flew up.]

[Blood gushed out from the broken blood vessels in his neck like a fountain.]

[Shocking bloodstains were left on the walls and the ground.]

You slowly squat down and gently hug your mother's body.

[That body, once warm but now gradually cold, seems to carry all your memories of your mother.]

[Then, you stretched out your trembling hands, intending to pick up the head that had fallen to the side.]

[The moment your fingers touched the head, a chill ran from your fingertips straight into your heart, making you shiver.]

[You open your eyes wide in disbelief, because you are surprised to find that the head is actually smiling! ]

[The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing an extremely strange smile.]

[There's a strange glint in his eyes, as if he's seen some new and interesting toy that's intriguing enough to pique his interest. He stares at you coldly and playfully.]

【However, she is indeed dead.】

You looked solemn and silent, silently collecting your mother's body. You were mentally thinking about finding a suitable place to cremate and bury her so she could rest in peace.

[But in today's world, because of the existence of the Life Bank, everything has become twisted and crazy.]

In the eyes of those people, a body like my mother's, which had not yet decayed, had become a "commodity" that could be exchanged for life currency.

You know in your heart that if you just casually send your mother to be cremated or buried on the spot.

[Perhaps it will soon be dug out by those who want their own children and sold in exchange for life coins.]

This world has gone mad.

You can’t help but think so.

[20 years old: Failure in the college entrance examination resulted in you only being admitted to a third-rate university.]

[Luckily, the university wasn't too far from home, so you were able to absorb university knowledge on campus while working odd jobs in your spare time to make ends meet.]

The days pass by slowly, and you gradually accept this ordinary life, thinking that the rest of your life will be spent in this peaceful manner.

【However, fate doesn't seem to let you go. 】

【Just when you have become accustomed to this kind of peace. 】

【Your "mother" is back. 】

Fallen Immortal Boat: Chapter 95: But Isn’t This Interesting?

After a tiring day of studying and working, you drag your heavy body back home.

[The room was silent, and the familiar dim light seemed hazy in your eyes.]

You walked straight to the sofa and collapsed heavily onto it as if your bones had been pulled out.

You tilt your head back, close your eyes, and just want to soothe your aching body in this moment of peace.

[Just as I was dozing off, a crisp yet abrupt knock on the door suddenly sounded, like a bolt of thunder piercing the silent night sky.]

[You shudder all over, instantly waking up from your half-asleep, half-awake state, your previously chaotic mind instantly clearing up.]

You frowned, a hint of vigilance and doubt flashed across your eyes, and you pondered secretly in your heart.

[It’s so late, who could it be? ]

You slowly sit up from the sofa, your movements a little slow, as if you haven't completely shaken off your fatigue.

After hesitating for a moment, you stood up and walked towards the door, taking each step with caution.

【As we get closer to the door.】

The knocking on the door suddenly stopped, and the sudden silence made the tense atmosphere in the air even more intense.

【"who?"】

"It's me." A strange female voice came from outside: "It's your mother!"

[A suffocating silence spread in the air, as if time had stopped at this moment.]

[You opened the door just like that, and saw a somewhat unfamiliar woman just like that.]
