I am the savior, but I am being asked by Alicia and the others to pay me back.

"Of course, beautiful girls are the most healing people."

Although this is already Alicia's daily routine, but this time, what she said is indeed not wrong.

For Yutu at that time, having a living creature to accompany him was something he could not even imagine.

Compared to rude and cruel people, gentle people like Mother Duck can indeed soothe the soul more.

"Anyway, what exactly do you want to do today? While I do object to you leaving the house on your own, I'd be happy to help you if I can do it for you."

"Ah, wait a minute..."

The mother duck struggled to raise herself halfway from the bed and carefully groped for something in the wooden cupboard beside her.

"Here——"

In her palm was a bunch of faded plant specimens, which seemed to be cornflowers.

"If possible, can you help me find a tombstone nearby? The name on it is Alexey Zaitsev."

"Please...put this flower on his gravestone for me."

"He was my husband, who died in the disaster a few months ago. Although only his pistol and hat are buried there, I chat with him every week and give him a bouquet of flowers."

Noticing the puzzled look in Yutu's eyes, Mother Duck continued:

"I'm surprised that I can tell you this so calmly. I've already said that my current body doesn't allow me to be too sad. After all, it's hard to find medicine to maintain my lung capacity."

[Suddenly I remembered a certain host who cried so hard that he had asthma because of Jizi teacher]

[I almost couldn't breathe when I said goodbye to Teacher Himeko]

After hesitating for a moment, Yutu finally took the bunch of dried cornflowers.

Soon, she found Alexei's tombstone on the ice outside.

"He was a sinner, but he always tried his best to save his family and friends from hunger and cold."

Reading the other person's epitaph softly, she pressed the dried flowers with stones in front of the tombstone. She didn't understand why humans had such customs.

To her, a stone tablet and an inscription summarizing the deceased seemed insignificant compared to transcription, a way of preserving thoughts and experiences as much as possible.

“Like a name, it’s so important to humans, but it doesn’t allow for too much information to be stored on it.”

【The epitaph is too short, and this life is too long】

[But now, QR codes are engraved on tombstones]

[Just scan it, not only the biographical information, but also videos and so on are all available]

[I want to make a screenshot of the number one in the Abyss on the epitaph]

[I want to post a screenshot of Genshin Impact drawing 10 consecutive cards with 4 golds]

[Four gold medals in ten consecutive years? The cause of death of the deceased has been found! ]

"I'm back, Hana...I stayed there."

"Thank you for your hard work. Come here quickly. I have something prepared to show you."

[I have some good stuff here]

[Good news, it’s a new game]

[What new game is more exciting than games]

The answer was soon revealed—on the thick quilt, several different plant specimens were piled together in a slightly messy manner.

"Just consider it another favor and pick one you like."

"Is this... some kind of ritual?" Yutu was puzzled.

"Hey, I'll tell you after I choose."

This was not the first time this had happened. Alexandra's impulsive personality was fully demonstrated.

[Why didn’t Yaya inherit this?]

[Yeah, it feels so bad]

"..."

After seeing the comments on the barrage, Ye Ming actually did not agree.

But this is not something that should be discussed in public.

Once when the two of them were discussing game production on the bed at night, Bronya just came up with whatever she wanted to do.

Add QTE here, add CG animation there, change it to real-time rendering, and add props to the BOSS station and add a bunch of mechanisms from time to time.

Of course, the reason why Ye Ming could remember it so clearly was not because of the setting in the game, but because Bronya used the creativity in the game to apply all her tricks to him.

As for what QTE means, what CG means, what real-time rendering means, and what adding props means, we can only imagine.

"..."

During the game, Yutu casually reached out her hand, and among these difficult-to-identify specimens, she chose the most inconspicuous one.

Dry, messy, and bearing sad fruit, just as she evaluated her own life.

"Oh, it's her... let me think... um... well..."

"Ah! Let's use Mistrynne. Do you like this name?"

Upon hearing the name Alexandra gave him, Yutu looked surprised.

"What on earth are you... talking about?"

"You just picked mistletoe. I thought about how it is pronounced in different languages, and only Mistletoe sounds the best."

Mother Duck explained:

"In some myths, it represents life, but in others, it is closely associated with death."

"It seems to suit you very well."

[This is truly the choice of fate]

[This is a great choice]

"In fact, there is no such thing as destiny."

Seeing those comments, Ye Ming chuckled:

"The mistletoe has shriveled fruits and messy branches and vines, so some people think it is a symbol of death."

"And precisely because it is labeled with the name of death, people who like this plant will give it hope."

After all, myths are created by humans and their meanings are also defined by humans.

"What you mean is..." Nashida heard the deep meaning in Ye Ming's words.

"Death or hope, it is Mistelin's own choice that determines this, not the so-called fate."

843. The atmosphere is so good, it must be very sweet afterwards

Since the birth of Mistelline, all destinies have pointed her towards destruction and death, but she still chose the opposite path.

Even though she was sent back to the starting point every time, she still did not change her will.

"One choice will betray you, ten choices will betray you, but a hundred choices will never betray you."

That was Ye Ming's own experience. He had made wrong decisions countless times and had been upset because of making even more mistakes.

But if you keep going down the wrong path, everything you’ve accumulated along the way will burst into flames.

"It's a theory that goes against common sense, but is also shocking."

Ah Ci, who always made the right choices, was amazed, but she could also understand.

After all, the only mistake she made in her life also bore fruit that made her extremely happy.

"Ah? So... you asked me to make a choice just now just to pick a name for me?"

"Of course~~ How can it be without a name? If someone wants to recall the time they spent with you, silently thinking of Mistelline is better than "that mysterious, hard-to-understand Shaniyat", right?"

[Hahahaha, that does make sense]

[Mother Duck is so cute]

[I feel more like a relative than a duck]

Even Misterine herself was surprised that this was the impression she left on others.

[It’s actually not that bad, the gray snake is more mysterious and its speech is more difficult to understand]

[No one will miss the time spent with Gray Snake]

[Maybe the ravens will, they have been on the same shift the longest]

"No, absolutely not. Being able to remember him after his death is all the friendship I have as a colleague."

Seeing the barrage, Natasha was a little confused. Her cooperation with Gray Snake was quite tacit, but it was definitely not pleasant.

Seeing that everyone was disgusted, Mebius felt a little embarrassed.

"My work... is it so offensive?"

Hearing such doubts, Danzhu and Cangxuan both showed incredible expressions.

"Doctor, which of your inventions... is not annoying?"

It is said that that night, when Klein returned to the laboratory, he saw Danzhu and Cangxuan hanging on the beams in front of the gate again.

"But...names really don't mean anything to me."

In the game, Mistlin still didn't quite understand, but Mother Duck Tong kept smiling gently.

"You don't have to think too much. Anyway, I've already given it to you. Whether you want to use it or not is up to you."

"Oh, actually, there is something I want to do..."

Knock, knock, knock. The ominous knock on the door came at an inopportune time, interrupting her words.

The two people who had lived in peace and quiet for a long time were suddenly startled, and then they simultaneously looked at the snow outside the window in surprise.

At this time and place, the remaining ranges of the Ural Mountains were blocked by collapse and wind and frost, making it a place where almost no life could set foot.

"..."

Mistierine knew very well who could knock on the door at this moment.

"Alexandra, stay here and don't make any noise. That man is very dangerous to you."

After that, it was the incident that we had glimpsed in previous memories, when the Gray Snake came to find Mistresseline to join the World Snake.

"Qualified ones? You're really lucky. There are only one of them in ten thousand. Once they disappear, it will be hard to find another one."

"If I kill her here, you will join us without any distractions, right?"

Now that I think about it, putting this memory before the beautiful and gentle relationship between Mistletoe and the duck mother may really be a consideration for the player's blood pressure.

If we look at it in order, when Gray Snake wanted to kill Alexandra, it might not be as simple as "going to Shenyang Street".

[Come to think of it this way, Gray Snake wants to shoot the pregnant woman]

【And she is also the mother of Duck Duck】

[Gray Snake's idol is Otto, right?]

In fact, Gray Snake did fire a shot before he died, but because his body had already decayed by then, he was unable to aim.

But even so, Mistryn was still worried that Alexandra would be injured or frightened by the gunshots, after all, she was weak.

"Misterine."

"Well... I'm here. No one will hurt you again. I promise."

Mistrynne's voice was full of remorse and concern, but she didn't realize that the mother duck didn't care about the matter.

"Do you remember - I had something to tell you before there was a sudden knock on the door."

"In two days, a group of people should come to find us and ask me to move to a place with better conditions."

"You see, I'm going to be a mother soon, and the birth of a person is no small matter after all."
