Honkai, why do you only play high-end games?

Now when I look back, the door lock looks as brand new as if it had just been installed.

Different from what I had seen in the consciousness space before, I knew clearly at that time that all this was just an illusion.

But now this reality and falsehood overlap with each other, and I have found myself in this strange situation.

The insecurity brought about by this subtle difference made Lin Wei feel extremely uncomfortable.

“Is this the paradise of the afterlife?”

Lin Wei took a deep breath and made himself forget the discomfort - he had already come to this last step, he couldn't retreat, right?

I walked up the stairs and turned a corner. The lights were no longer cold and dim, but turned into soft and bright orange lights, like a luxuriously decorated high-end hotel or a magnificent palace.

The Golden Courtyard is indeed spectacular.

Lin Wei immediately noticed the strange-shaped device standing at the end of the hall, which was flowing slowly as if it had life;

There is a bright corridor on the left. If I am not mistaken, it is probably a lounge where large banquets can be held.

There is a relatively dim corridor on the right, which should be the information room.

Will Klein be there?

Or is it in another place that can be called "backstage"?

The overall layout is roughly similar to the impression in the game, but the scene in front of me is much more spectacular than the cramped little room in the game!

At least the area is several times larger.

Lin Wei couldn't help but look back up, and sure enough, there was another closed door on the second floor.

Being able to find many familiar feelings, Lin Wei's insecurity has been basically eliminated.

"Hello, nice to meet you, visitor."

The door of the lounge opened, and a thin man walked out slowly and greeted gently.

She had long grey hair, her eyes were closed, and her face could even be described as beautiful.

No wonder King Arthur thought she was a fairy!

Lin Wei felt a little dissatisfied after seeing Su's appearance.

"Hello, Forerunner, it's an honor."

Lin Wei also greeted him politely. No matter whether he was a hero of the previous civilization or a pioneer of the current civilization, both of them deserved respect.

"No need to be so polite, visitor."

Su slowly stretched out his hand and motioned Lin Wei to come over here.

"I am only a shadow of the past, not a true pioneer. Therefore, I would rather you call me by my name - 'Su'."

The voice is steady and gentle, gentle and neither humble nor arrogant, which makes people feel good at first hearing it.

"I am sorry for disturbing you by visiting me."

Lin Wei smiled calmly, walked towards Su, and without any hesitation, walked directly into the lounge where Kevin was said to have eaten noodles.

Su was not surprised. He just smiled and nodded, making way for Lin Wei and following behind him.

The door closed silently.

Bright and soft lights shine in from all angles, eliminating shadows in every little corner;

There are several rows of long sofas, facing each other;

Tall and sturdy chairs were arranged around a huge banquet table. Lin Wei simply counted them and found that there were more than thirteen of them.

The banquet table was not simple either. It was made of a single piece of solid wood that was polished directly. It looked plain but was actually extremely luxurious.

In the center of the wall opposite the entrance, there was a huge oil painting of an elegant and beautiful woman. Lin Wei knew that it was Eden, and couldn't help but look at her a few more times, remembering her appearance in his mind.

There is a cabinet under the oil painting, on which are displayed thirteen vessels of various shapes, exuding different scents, some warm, some playful, some cold, and some hot.

It seems a bit awkward in this warm room, but it doesn't seem out of place.

They belong here.

Su Yinlin Wei came to what looked like a tea break place, and the host and guests sat down.

"I thought that as soon as I walked in, a dozen people would jump out and catch me on the spot."

Before Su could speak, Lin Wei started to tell a joke and directly stated that he was an unwelcome visitor.

"No problem, visitor..."

"Just call me Lin Wei."

"Sorry, it's just my habit, if you mind."

Su poured a cup of tea for Lin Wei, and Lin Wei waved her hand and said she didn't mind.

Su smiled, and then continued to speak gently,

"As for your purpose, visitor, you don't have to worry about it. The reason you can enter this paradise of the past is with the permission of Hua and Kevin, and that is enough."

"…Are you so casual? Do you know the consequences?"

Ling is the Herrscher of Corrosion.

"Every sip and every bite is predestined. Those who sow the seeds must reap the fruits. This is the truth of heaven and earth. Since we exist here under the name of 'Yingjie' to continue the path of the later generations, the regrets of this once lost history that has now been rediscovered should naturally be resolved by the people of the past."

"We should be grateful to you for this opportunity."

Lin Wei felt helpless, he felt like he was really a bad guy.

"I just said it casually, but now that I hear you say it, I really feel like I've been treated as an unwelcome guest."

Su's expression was calm and he spoke calmly.

"Everything is born out of cognition, especially in the Paradise of the Past. From the moment we met, I had foreseen the outcome. Therefore, there is no need to feel guilty, visitor. Your presence is not a bad thing, and the Paradise of the Past welcomes you."

Su opened his palm, and a Bodhi leaf flipped and jumped in his palm, then slowly flew towards Lin Wei.

"If you want to question this forgotten past, please take my gift and follow the guidance of this bodhi leaf. It will point out the path you should take at the intersection of thousands of destinies."

Lin Wei took it carefully and put it away solemnly.

"what should I do?"

"No need to ask me, visitor, just follow your own path."

You said it just like you said it!

Lin Wei really wanted to scold him loudly and ask him to speak human language, but after looking at his handsome face with a serious expression, she gave up.

He remembered that this was the paradise of the afterlife.

There are riddlers per capita here!

Su just made a quick move, Lin Wei, you should just adapt to it in advance.

Lin Wei gritted his teeth, unable to swallow this.

"Then you have to tell me how to get here, right? Or should I turn around and go back now?"

"This is my first time here! You have to teach me how to operate it. Should I pass the levels or walk through the maze? The beginner guide of this game is too poor!"

"Don't worry too much, visitor. Just enter the memory device at the end of the hall, and the way forward will appear. Just go to the end."

"The end? Is there another hero waiting in the depths?"

Lin Wei's heart moved. Was it Ying, Qianjie, Kevin, or Abonya?

"That's not the case. The other guest who was traveling with you is now hiding in the depths of your memory and cannot be found. You need to use this memory device to find the location of Ling in the intersection of memories. The rest will be handled by Ying Jie."

Lin Wei narrowed his eyes. Deal with it?

"What are you going to do with Ling?"

I didn't bring her here to let her get bullied again!

If that's the case, I really don't mind helping her tear down everything here.

Now Kevin is in the Quantum Sea and can't come back, I wonder who can still block the door!

"I understand your concerns, visitor. Don't worry, Sakura is already waiting there. And this time, Kevin will not obstruct; and Qianjie, he will not allow anyone to disturb."

"Maybe this will reassure you?"

Lin Wei nodded in agreement, showing his sincerity indeed.

"Let's go."

He picked up the still warm cup of tea and took a gulp, then stood up and strode towards the memory terminal, reaching out to touch the device that seemed to be alive.

"All things are impermanent, and are the result of the cycle of cause and effect. Listen, feel, and pause as you move forward, allowing every step to become a gift for self-refining. This is the inscription of [Heavenly Wisdom]..."

Lin Wei was in a daze and vaguely heard what Su was saying, but it was like a dream and he couldn't hear it clearly.

After waking up, Lin Wei looked at where he was, then looked at the illusion around him, and was speechless.

You really think I'm in paradise, don't you?

"Su, can you hear me? Squeak."

Lin Wei looked at the peculiar architectural forms nearby, the broken bricks and tiles in the distance, the intertwined information flows farther away, and the various messes of living and dead beings that appeared and disappeared from time to time, and he felt a chill in his heart.

Looking at the platform where he was standing and the glowing portal at the other end of the platform, he could no longer hold back.

The first floor was ok, no monsters.

But what about the second floor?

There wasn't even a pop-up window for me to choose a buff!

This game is unplayable, goodbye, wait for death!

(╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻

"The Paradise of the Past is a space formed by the memories of heroes. The trials of successors here are actually to travel through the memories of heroes and discover the lost history."

Su's voice rang in his ears, still with that lukewarm and calm tone.

"I'm not here for a trial!"

Lin Wei was so anxious that he jumped up and down. He had to be anxious. Someone might die!

"Don't worry, visitor. You just need to travel through the intersection of Ying Jie's memories and go deep into them. Then I will help you unfold your own memories and connect them with this memory space. By then, I will ask you to help us make up for our past mistakes."

"So it really is just a level-breaking game?"

Lin Wei's lips were dry.

Don't do that! I can't even defeat the monsters!

"The Paradise of the Past is a world made up of memory and cognition. After the visitor stepped into the world, you also became a part of the cognition. Therefore, visitor, the area you are standing on is not set by Yingjie, but formed by your own cognition. I have to say that this way of moving forward is quite novel and interesting."

Su tried his best to explain the current situation to Lin Wei with high emotional intelligence.

Lin Wei held his forehead with his hand and said, he understood.

Because I subconsciously believed that paradise was like this, so paradise really became like this...

So this is just digging your own grave.

I shouldn't have played Honkai Impact 3 if I had known this!

This crappy game ruined my youth!

(╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻

"So what's next? Let me think. You'll keep me safe, right, Sue?"

Lin Wei forced himself to calm down, and then asked the most crucial question first.

After receiving a positive reply, Lin Wei felt relieved and began to sort out the information.

"The intersection of Yingjie's memories can form a road, allowing visitors to go deeper into the memory. I just need to go deeper. No matter which fork in the road I take, it will be the same, right?"

Lin Wei took a look at the two flashy portals and felt a toothache again.

"Although that is not the case, the current situation is special and you are not the kind of trial taker we are used to, so it is okay to understand it this way for now."

Su's tone is always so gentle and calming, which has the effect of calming people's restlessness.

"You just need to choose the path you think is right and move forward. The end of the road is where your heart is. Dear visitor, I wish you a smooth journey."
