Unlike her, the others chose not to ask Wang Xuanqiao about the matter. Wei Erwei said something interesting and left. Not long after, Kevin also left without a word, and Su followed him out.

Hua glanced at Wang Xuanqiao once more before turning back to his memory space. Ying vanished even more suddenly. Seeing this, Paduo, anxious for a moment, then vanished in a flash. The once bustling place was now reduced to just three people.

Alicia didn't seem to have any intention of leaving. As for Eden, she sat there, and her aura in every gesture was like that of the hostess of this place, making people feel that she shouldn't be the one to leave.

Wang Xuanqiao originally wanted to talk to Alicia alone, but considering her relationship with Eden, it didn't matter.

"Actually, it's quite difficult to get to know so many Fire Chasing Heroes at once."

Just as Wang Xuanqiao was about to speak, Alicia suddenly spoke.

"It's been a long time since we've all gathered together like this... If it weren't for Aponya's unusual behavior, you might not even have seen me. After all, meeting such a handsome boy, I can't help but feel a little shy!"

I understand. This is the legendary high-EQ speech. Wang Xuanqiao nodded.

If I can accept Kiana's praise, then you, a butterfly that can dance among flowers, must be just being polite, he thought.

"Ellie, the store manager came here to find the answer."

At this time, Eden spoke.

"Should we... tell him?"

——The author has something to say——

When the thirteen heroes gather together, that is...

Ah! I don't want to see it!

This is why only nine people showed up after Ah Qiao entered the paradise. Of these, Aponiya herself had met him in the Deepest Abyss, little Grayshu was engrossed in painting and wouldn't be there, and Kosmo had to take care of her, so he wouldn't come either. Qianjie didn't care about Aponiya's actions and wouldn't appear outside.

Volume 054: : What remains here is ______

"It's okay, Eden." Alicia shook her head at Eden. "Although I didn't get to see the Herrscher of the new era with my own eyes, I believe Xuanqiao wouldn't lie to us about this, right?"

Unlike Eden, Alicia chose to address Wang Xuanqiao by his name. As far as he could remember, this was truly the first time he had experienced this.

Wang Xuanqiao felt something was amiss and unconsciously looked at Ailishiya twice more.

"Actually, it's not impossible for you to see her if you want to." He suddenly said, "If you take Aponya's prophecy into consideration, perhaps you won't be confined to the paradise of the afterlife in the future.

"Are you referring to the sentence - the fate of the paradise of the past will be destroyed because of you?" Eden lowered her eyelids slightly, and she looked into the wine glass, as if she could see the past through the mellow red soup.

"Excuse me, Mr. Manager. Perhaps the existence of Paradise is just..."

"Well, my dear Eden, this is Xuanqiao's first time here, and I'm also very interested in what he said! If we can really get out of the paradise of the afterlife, I will definitely go on a good walk with you!"

Alicia tapped a quick dance tune on the ground with her heels and walked over to sit next to Eden.

"I was a little anxious, Ellie." Eden looked at the girl beside him and shook his head slightly.

"After all, Mr. Manager came here for that answer... Maybe I really need time to adjust myself." She raised her head and looked at Wang Xuanqiao. "I am sorry for being rude, Mr. Manager. Please forgive me."

"It's okay." Wang Xuanqiao didn't care. "I really don't know much about your story. If I've offended you unintentionally, I apologize."

"Thank you very much for your understanding, Mr. Manager." Eden stood up, bowed politely and turned to Alicia.

"Then I'll leave this place to you and the store manager, Ellie."

"Hmm~ I will definitely have a good conversation with Xuanqiao, Eden."

After the two said goodbye, Eden returned to his memory space. In this area between memory space and reality, only Wang Xuanqiao and Alicia remained.

Alicia waved to Wang Xuanqiao.

"Come on, sit down," she said. "If you keep standing, I'll have to stand up and talk to you."

Wang Xuanqiao walked over and sat down on another chair.

"Before we start our conversation, can you fulfill a small wish of mine?" Alicia winked at Wang Xuanqiao.

"Go ahead." Wang Xuanqiao replied.

Fortunately, I have seen a lot of battles, otherwise I really can't handle this woman.

"Can you tell me about the Second Herrscher?" Alicia rested her hands on her knees and rested her chin between her palms, as if ready to listen attentively.

"Then I'll just briefly explain it. First of all, I'm not the type to tell a good story. I can only make sure not to convey the wrong information, so it might sound a bit boring."

"It's okay~ Besides, I think you speak very nicely." Alicia's eyes curved into crescents with a smile.

Wang Xuanqiao cleared his throat and told Xilin's story under Ai Lishiya's eager gaze...

He had to admit that if audiences were ranked, Alicia would definitely be at the top of the list. Her enthusiastic feedback could even make people feel that even things they originally thought were boring became interesting.

This may be the magic she possesses, attracting all those who desire attention and want to be seen.

Wang Xuanqiao immediately understood why she, as a later character, was able to rush to the forefront in popularity.

"In the end, she met many people who were willing to love her even though they knew she was a Herrscher. That's great." Alicia sighed as if she was about to drop pearls.

"Even though they've suffered at the hands of the Herrscher, they still trust her for who she is, rather than who she is. Humanity, then and now, is capable of such gentleness."

"This way, I have no regrets." Alicia wiped her eyes quietly.

"So, it was actually you who liberated the Herrscher of this era?" Wang Xuanqiao looked at her and asked.

"The word 'liberation' is not quite right. I just created possibilities for them in the future so that they can become whoever they want to be, that's all." Alicia corrected with a smile.

"Then I have to thank you on behalf of at least three people: Kiana, Bronya, and Raiden Mei. These three are probably the ones who have benefited the most from you." Wang Xuanqiao said seriously, "So, if possible, would you like to leave the paradise and see the world now?"

"Of course I am." When mentioning the outside world, Alicia's eyes lit up, "But, please don't make things difficult for yourself because of this."

"Because for me, for us, what's left in the paradise of the past is actually just a story, our story. We are the people in the story, and most of our real selves have passed away, accompanying our times."

Although Alicia tried hard to cheer herself up, the lonely mood was like the yellow sand in her hands. No matter how hard she held it tightly, some sand would still seep through the tiny cracks.

"But I don't think so," Wang Xuanqiao said. "If it's a story, how can it be without miracles?"

After saying this, he stood up and walked towards the gate of the paradise.

"System, open the door." Wang Xuanqiao called out the system and asked it to use the gate of Paradise to open the passage back to the game hall.

[Alright! Boss!]

The feeling of time and space interweaving flashed by. Wang Xuanqiao stood in front of the door, stretched out his hand and pulled it. The long corridor outside the door had disappeared, replaced by a brightly lit game room.

Oh no, did you not turn off the lights before leaving?

Never mind, it doesn’t matter. My own game room doesn’t consume electricity from outside anyway.

Wang Xuanqiao turned around and waved to Alicia who was peeking from behind.

"Come to me," he said loudly.

Alicia walked over quickly and looked at the other side of the door with curiosity.

"Wow! Is this another world?" She was very perceptive and smart, and she immediately guessed the nature of this strange sight.

"Yes, that's my world." Wang Xuanqiao held the door open with one hand, preventing it from closing. "If you can successfully cross over to my world, the paradise of the past will no longer restrict your actions. Perhaps this is the truth behind why the paradise's fate was destroyed because of me?"

"Would you like to give it a try?"

Alicia smiled at Wang Xuanqiao and reached out to the door without hesitation...

"!"

The moment her hand passed through the door, Alicia's eyes widened. Then she took another step, intending to cross to the other side of the door with her body.

But Wang Xuanqiao held her back.

Alicia looked over with a smile, without any blame, just a calm expression.

"What's wrong? Maybe if I can just step over it, I can recover."

Wang Xuanqiao sighed softly and shook his head.

"It seems that miracles do not allow such opportunistic methods." He pulled Alicia back to the paradise and closed the door leading to the game room again.

Both Wang Xuanqiao and Alicia saw it clearly. The moment her arm left the paradise, her clothing, skin, and flesh all began to disintegrate into streams of data, slowly dissipating into the air.

It was not until Wang Xuanqiao pulled Alicia back from the middle of the door that the collapsed data was pieced together to form the part she had lost.

Memory really cannot leave the paradise.

Ultimately, they can only exist in the carrier of the paradise of the afterlife. As Alicia said, they are just a story left here, not real, living people...

Wang Xuanqiao subconsciously pulled Alicia's hand. The sight of her arm shattering into data was indeed a bit horrifying.

Of course, the most horrifying thing was that even though Alicia saw her arm collapse, she still dared to take a step towards the door.

Since you've done this, don't I have to get you out of paradise? Wang Xuanqiao sighed inwardly.

"You're so concerned about me, it's a bit embarrassing." Alicia suddenly said, "And look, my hand is fine now."

"Hmm? Oh." Wang Xuanqiao then let go of her hand.

"I was wrong this time. I took things too lightly." He looked at Alicia with an apologetic look. "Trying to bypass the essence of things doesn't work."

"It's okay." Alicia smiled. "You mentioned miracles, but it makes me very excited too."

"But I must hand the miracle into your hands!" Wang Xuanqiao said firmly.

As Alicia said, what exists in the paradise of the past is not the real them, but the story.

But Wang Xuanqiao also put down his words - he didn't think so.

PS: Ellie said that the final moments of heroes must be grand and heroic. So, of course, the miracles of heroes can't just be opening a door, right?

And I am ready to give the real miracle to Yingjie and Ai Li!

Volume 055: : The idea of life is enough to transcend time

Can the heartbeat of memory be considered the person's true reaction?

This thought suddenly occurred to Alicia.

But the man who made her heart beat faster suddenly has now left the paradise on earth.

Wang Xuanqiao kept thinking as he quickly searched for Kevin in the castle. Soon, he found his target at the end of another corridor.

Kevin sat on a throne that seemed made of steel, a greatsword blazing with flames beside him. But he seemed to have nothing to do and said nothing. Only when Wang Xuanqiao entered the space did Kevin raise his head.

"Found the answer?" he asked.

"I guess so." Wang Xuanqiao shrugged. "To be honest, I feel like I lost out on this deal."

"Oh?" Kevin raised his eyebrows.

"I'm planning to pull Zhuhuo Yingjie out of the paradise of the past. Do you understand now?" Wang Xuanqiao suddenly touched his chin. "Hey, by the way, is this also your plan?"

"No." Kevin shook his head. "I never imagined you could do this."

He then added, "The existence of the Yingjie is very unique. Although they can move freely in the Paradise of the Past as they did in the past, it is ultimately a shadow of yesterday, relying on the system of the Paradise of the Past. In my opinion, to release them from the Paradise is tantamount to the power of God."

"Of course, I'm not referring to false gods like the Herrscher."

"It's certainly not easy to rescue them." Wang Xuanqiao nodded, agreeing, "but it's not impossible."

"Can you really do it?" Kevin stood up from the throne, and the large amplitude of his movements completely revealed his inner excitement.

"It's hard to say, because I'm not 100% sure."

"How much?"

"About 70 to 80 percent, but it will be more troublesome."

Kevin felt his heart tremble as he heard the numbers Wang Xuanqiao reported. Throughout his journey, he had tasted the bitterness of loss. Family members, loved ones, brothers, comrades, even colleagues he had only met once, all had been buried by time.

Kevin had even become numb to memories. In the quantum ocean, he had wandered for over 1,500 years in those almost real memories. But what pained him most was the battle he and Su had to go to war because of their differences in philosophies.

Although Kevin never mentioned these things, because he had become accustomed to the pain and sorrow, and buried them deep in his heart, he devoted himself to fulfilling the promise he made to the deceased.

But now, someone told him that there was a 70% to 80% chance that the former hero could be released from the paradise?

Kevin felt like he was dreaming for a moment!

This wasn't reversing time to modify the past, or grabbing dolls from a mirror world. The people in the paradise of the past were indeed his former brothers, comrades-in-arms, and beloved relatives!
