Lucky billion players, you've never seen one before / I can accumulate my own luck

“It was Alpha. She suddenly provided the copy coordinates and asked me to pull her in,” Yan Keke replied. “Then…then she asked me to open a portal to partition 004 for her. After I got out, she quickly disappeared.”

"alpha……"

Fan Xiao frowned slightly.

To facilitate movement these days, the coordinates of Fairy Tale Town have been set at fixed times within zone 004, just to make it easier to open the door.

It is very convenient to enter and exit Zone 004 from Fairy Tale Town.

He originally planned to blow a "wind of nothingness" over Division 004 before leaving to erase most of the traces, but unexpectedly, this happened before his departure... Did Alpha run away?

He subconsciously thought of the machine crisis.

In other words, artificial intelligence has developed self-awareness and has begun to embark on the path of rebellion.

He quickly suppressed the thought.

The consciousness of all flesh and blood beings originates from the organization of the "Flesh and Blood Progenitor" psychic energy. The control of psychic energy is absolute and cannot be problematic... If we start from this point of view and speculate, this Alpha who ran away is very likely not Alpha.

It might be a fake.

No, it's not "maybe", it's definitely a fake!

Alpha is merely a physical, programmed consciousness, lacking even a spirit. How could it possibly perform a coordinate ritual to provide coordinates?

The coordinate ritual in Fairy Tale Town has a hidden restriction—the one who performs the ritual must be a true being with a spirit.

If you really want to categorize Alpha, you could call it a robot.

With that in mind, Fan Xiao put on the "Truth Overcomes All" badge and asked, "Who is Alpha now?"

At this moment, he and the problematic Alpha are both in the 004 partition, meeting the conditions for using the item in the "same time and space".

"Truth transcends everything." He had one unconditional opportunity to access past information every day, and since nothing major was happening recently, he didn't conserve his opportunities.

The monocle quickly replied: "Master, Miss Alpha is showing unusual changes in partition 001. I'm currently in partition 004 and can't detect her. All I know is that Miss Alpha is in partition 004 and is demonstrating her ability to move freely in space."

"..." Fan Xiao narrowed his eyes: "Do you really not know, or do you know but dare not say?"

“Master! How could Xiao Zhen dare to hide anything from you! Everything Xiao Zhen said is the absolute truth…”

The monocle began a series of declarations of loyalty.

Fan Xiao got annoyed and interrupted, "Alright, just take me to find someone."

"Yes……"

Xiao Zhen reluctantly stopped expressing her loyalty.

If you listen closely, you'll notice a hint of reluctance in its tone.

……

Star Memory City... no, it should be called Whale Fall City now.

On the outskirts of Whalefall City, a large number of low-level players from the Radiant Society were using construction aids to help the construction team quickly complete the road construction and the modification of the surrounding terrain.

Construction is now more than halfway complete, and from a distance, the city walls of Whalefall City present the style of a port city.

The black city wall that originally faced the ocean has been mostly demolished.

With the threat of genetic monsters gone, the Radiant Society plans to take advantage of Whalefall City's geographical location and develop it into the largest maritime base in Division 004.

Once foreign trade begins and District 004 is able to purchase fantasy materials from the game company at low prices, Whale Fall City will continue to expand outwards to the coast.

In the future, this place may become one of the distinctive tourist cities along the G08 node.

Whoosh—a cruise ship docked at a temporary port on the coast.

Led by the players, a large number of ordinary people disembarked from the ship in an orderly manner and boarded numbered buses on the shore, heading towards Whale Fall City.

These people all came from Radiant City.

The area where Radiant City is located only has three safe zones, which is far from enough to accommodate the humans who survived the Great Cataclysm.

Many people live in the areas outside the city. Although the Radiant Society has not abandoned them and provides them with supplies regularly, food has never been a problem. Many items with special functions can even create food out of thin air, and some items with agricultural attributes can multiply the harvest many times over.

Most people don't die of starvation, but rather... are killed by dungeons.

The 004 district has been embroiled in the evolution game for far too long, and the crisis in the random dungeons has long since reached a fever pitch, threatening the lives of those outside the city at every moment.

Some people are laughing and chatting with their relatives one day, and the next day... they just disappear.

Fortunately, the Radiant Society won the final war.

Star Memory City became Whale Fall City, leaving a large number of safe dwellings vacant.

These survivors, who lived outside the three safe zones, were among the first to be granted relocation slots.

In addition, the previously overcrowded Radiant City also took the opportunity to implement a reasonable "reduction policy".

Many city residents, receiving welfare benefits, joined this relocation effort.

Among them were old acquaintances of Fan Xiao and others—Li Wendong and his daughter Li Xingyi.

After boarding the numbered bus, the two fell silent and admired the scenery through the window.

When Li Wendong saw the once barren land, teeming with monsters, now transformed into a vast highway and buildings of various styles, he was filled with emotion, as if he could see the future of Whalefall City's rise.

"Xiao Yi, do you still remember things from when you were little?"

Li Wendong turned around and asked his daughter sitting next to him.

"Is Dad going to reminisce about the past again?" Li Xingyi rolled her eyes and said, "There's a limit to being sentimental! I'm tired of hearing those old stories."

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything more."

Li Wendong was both amused and exasperated.

Young people really don't remember the hardships of the past, but... oh well, it's also a sign of youthful vigor.

One cannot live in the past forever.

Soon, the bus arrived at the east gate of Whalefall City.

After getting out of the car, Li Xingyi looked ahead and exclaimed in surprise, "So many people!"

“I heard from Lao Chen that there were even more people here a few days ago,” Li Wendong said. “We were among the last to move here, and there are far fewer people now.”

"With so many people, can Whale Fall City accommodate them all?" Li Xingyi asked worriedly. "If we arrive late and can't get a place to stay, Dad, we'll have to slink back home."

"Don't worry about that."

Li Wendong shook his head and said, "Old Chen also said that there aren't enough people coming to fill this city."

"In the original Star Memory City, both players and high-ranking officials knew how to enjoy life. The houses they lived in were larger than we could have imagined."

“Now that these areas have been demolished and rebuilt, there are countless empty residences inside Whalefall City, enough to accommodate as many people as possible.”

At this point, he patted his daughter's head and smiled, "Let's go see what our new home is like."

"Ah."

Li Xingyi nodded, her eyes full of anticipation.

Suddenly, she saw a white blur flash before her eyes and instinctively looked over.

A white-haired girl with a face as exquisite as a work of art walked past her and headed into the city.

The girl's pure white hair was adorned with a cute little hat, and she wore a black dress and sheepskin ankle boots, creating a fairytale-like atmosphere.

Li Xingyi stared blankly for a few seconds before tugging at Li Wendong's sleeve and saying, "Dad, look, that person is so pretty... Huh? She's gone?"

……

Xing Tong never imagined that she would be able to return one day.

Since being moved to Radiant City by that strange person, she and Xiao Sheng and the others have never seen each other again.

This left her with a slight sense of regret.

She really wanted to thank the other person in person for rescuing her and her companions from the mud.

Gratitude is something her past parents taught her.

Fortunately, the Radiant Society won the war.

She and Xiao Sheng, along with others, were given the opportunity to relocate to Xingyi... no, to Whale Fall City.

During the journey, Xing Tong saw a large area of ​​new buildings spreading from the seaside to the East Gate area, and saw the smiles on people's faces. Only then did she have a clear and profound understanding of the fact that Xingyi City had disappeared.

She harbored a small wish—that she could meet that person again in this city and properly express her gratitude.

The bus arrived at the door quickly.

Xing Tong and the others lined up and entered Whale Fall City in an orderly fashion.

The new city used a car to transport them through the bustling streets.

"Sister Xingtong, what... what should we do in the future? I think Guangyao City is pretty good. Although it's a bit crowded, it's definitely much better than here."

"Don't worry, things have changed here." Xing Tong comforted the uneasy Xiao Sheng: "The Radiant Society won the war, and even the city's name has changed. Those bad guys from before have definitely been eliminated and won't bully us anymore."

She patted Xiao Sheng's head: "Besides, doesn't Xiao Sheng also want to thank that brother?"

"Brother? Isn't he uncle?" Xiao Sheng asked in confusion.

"Ah... his initial appearance was a disguise, the later one should be the real one, he should be called brother."

Xing Tong corrected.

During their conversation, the vehicle arrived at its new destination—a clean and tidy residential area.

Xing Tong and the others got out of the car and looked at the spacious and magnificent cluster of buildings in front of them, their eyes filled with astonishment.

Her initial shock quickly turned into disbelief, and Xiao Sheng instinctively asked, "Sister Xing Tong, is this kind of house... really for us to live in?"

At this moment, Xiao Sheng opened her mouth wide, as if she could fit an egg inside.

Xing Tong didn't answer immediately, because she was also stunned and it took her a while to come back to her senses.

Xiao Sheng tugged at her sleeve and repeated the question.

Xing Tong shook her head and said, "This used to be where important people lived. I didn't expect so many buildings to be built here... It must just look big from the outside. It's probably been divided into many small rooms inside. Otherwise... how could so many of us live here?"

At this moment, the people who got off the car excitedly rushed into the residential area.

The staff responsible for maintaining stability used megaphones to urge everyone not to rush and to line up in an orderly manner.

Suddenly, Xing Tong saw a beautiful white-haired girl walking out of the residential area, facing the crowded people.

The girl wasn't hindered at all by the surging crowd; she passed right through them like a transparent person and arrived in front of herself and Xiao Sheng and the others.

As the girl was about to pass through them, she suddenly stopped and her gaze fell on Xing Tong's face.

A clear, slightly cute voice drifted over: "It used to be too small to fit everyone, but now it's not even full. And... the house is quite big."

After saying this, the girl passed through Xing Tong and the others and continued walking forward.

Xing Tong and the others looked dazed for a moment, then followed the crowd into the residential area.

The girl walked against the massive crowd, taking in the excited expressions on everyone's faces.

She didn't seem to be moving very fast, but strangely, it only took her a dozen minutes to get back to the east gate of Whalefall City.

After a graceful take-off, she appeared on the black city wall that had been half demolished, a gentle breeze ruffling a few strands of her hair.

The girl brushed a stray strand of hair behind her ear, when a voice suddenly rang out from behind her: "Al... Ah! My beloved teacher, what brings you here?"

The visitor was none other than Fan Xiao.

As soon as Fan Xiao saw the Alfa in front of him, he immediately sensed that something was wrong.

After carefully observing Alpha's attire, he determined her identity—it was Tina!

The white-haired girl turned around, looked up at Fan Xiao, and said with a slight smile, "You've been so rude in bombarding me with messages, I had to come and support you and check out the achievements you're boasting about?"

"..." Fan Xiao: "So, what were the teacher's... findings?"

"Whale Fall, that's a good name."

The white-haired girl shifted her gaze from Fan Xiao's face to the vehicles constantly heading towards the East Gate in the distance. They formed a long line that stretched all the way to the sea, as if they were receiving the endless waves.

The noisy and lively conversations kept coming from below the black city walls, and were carried into Whale Fall City in waves by the wind.

Whale fall, all things come to life.
