Chapter 170. Make Up For Regret
Arc 6 : Sci-fi Rom-com Movie Nightmare
When entering the fourth plot line, Du Yan has already confirmed the purpose of Zeus or the Lord of Dreams.
It seems to make up for the regrets or eliminate obsessions. In short, it makes up for some imperfect parts of the previous dreams.
Du Yan had this idea because the game content currently would probably not pass the review in China.
He looked at Xiao Lang, who was pushed away and stood beside the bed, and suddenly heard a prompt sound in his ear.
【Player uses a Wish Come True card and gains a physical entity.】
Du Yan’s reaction went beyond speechlessness, and he couldn’t find the right words to describe his feelings at the moment. In this dream, Du Yan accompanied Xiao Lang for quite a long time.
However, due to objective reasons, the two have never been able to have in-depth physical contact. Now that the wish-fulfilling card has been obtained, it is obviously to make up for the original regret.
Until Xiao Lang came up again, Du Yan was about to stop the man in front of him. After all, doing this for the purpose of testing the game and getting a share of the recharge was really beyond his bottom line.
Fortunately, game makers also have principles. At this time, everything around became blurred, and a huge CG appeared.
Du Yan looked at the mosaics that blurred the key points on the CG and felt that the Sagoru people really understood the Chinese culture on Earth thoroughly.
Another plot line test has ended. Du Yan roughly estimated that the share he received from it has exceeded one million. This is all thanks to the fact that Zeus spent a lot of money to increase his favorability, change the plot, and open up hidden plot lines.
This time, Du Yan did not leave in a hurry but stood in the virtual space in silence for a long time.
An electronic synthesized voice sounded: “Tester No. 520, are you feeling unwell because of the test?”
Du Yan raised his head and said directly: “Zeus, come out, I have something to ask you.”
The dull electronic synthesizer sound suddenly became like being interfered with, making a crackling noise.
Du Yan knew he was right when he heard it: “I know these players are you, Zeus, including the last electronic synthesized sound.”
Du Yan had said this, and Zeus had no reason to hide it anymore. Chaotic electronic ripples appeared in the virtual space, and then Zeus’s figure appeared in front of Du Yan.
When Zeus appeared, there was no expression on his face, but the pattern that flickered in and out showed that he was very panicked.
“Sorry, I just don’t want others to guide you. I know this is not good. Please don’t delete me…”
Du Yan rubbed his brows: “You don’t have to be so nervous, I just want to ask you a few questions.”
Seeing that Du Yan didn’t look angry, Zeus asked: “What’s the problem?”
“Why do you have to set up these weird plot lines.”
Du Yan is a very rational person and always takes the simplest and most effective approach to doing things.
Now that he has obtained one million, there is no need to continue the game testing. It is still the nature of the Sagoru people to never lie.
Du Yan naturally deduced that the easiest way to understand the current situation was to find Zeus and ask him.
Zeus thought for a moment and said: “I don’t know. After I met you, I started to dream about these things.”
“Previously, I read about reincarnation in Chinese civilization.” Zeus explained awkwardly: “I think I was Chinese in my previous lives and was always your partner.”
“Incarnation and reincarnation?” Du Yan asked in disbelief: “Do you think these inexplicable memories are from past lives? Or maybe it’s just because you have read a lot of information about Chinese civilization during this period, which leads to these delusions.”
Zeus shook his head: “No, the Sagoru never dream, and your brain waves match mine, which also confirms this.”
Du Yan was somewhat speechless. There was indeed no other more reasonable explanation except for the incarnation and reincarnation. He couldn’t tell Zeus the whole truth about dream-eating.
He didn’t know whether he should thank Zeus for rationalizing the matter in his mind, which prevented the dream world from collapsing.
An alien believing in incarnation and reincarnation, this is a really bizarre yet reasonable development.
It seems that Zeus only remembered the things in his previous dream, but he didn’t know that the current world was also a dream.
The situation had not yet deteriorated to an irreparable point, and Shao Lingheng in the real world did not think of the things in the dream world.
Wait until this dream is over, find Xiao Ba back, and thoroughly understand Shao Lingheng’s situation, and then decide whether to resign and leave.
He glanced at Zeus in front of him, and then thought of Shao Lingheng in the real world who was almost identical to him, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
But these things are just a dream to Shao Lingheng and have no meaning.
Du Yan temporarily put aside all the thoughts in his mind and decided to solve the current dilemma first.

Du Yan and Luo Ruoqing met at a coffee shop outside the school. There were few people sitting outside, so it was suitable for talking about things, so as to avoid any twists and turns if other people heard what they said next.
He sat by the window and watched Luo Ruoqing arrive late.
Du Yan didn’t really care. She is just a teenage girl, and there was no point in arguing with her in this regard.
After seeing Luo Ruoqing sitting down, Du Yan didn’t say much but took out a bank card from his pocket and pushed it over.
“One million in principal, including the interest accumulated during this period.”
Luo Ruoqing raised her eyebrows: “You can get so much money in such a short time, do you think I’m stupid?”
Du Yan said: “There is no point in me lying to you.”
Luo Ruoqing thought about it and didn’t take the card: “Where did you get this money?”
Du Yan remembered that he pretended to accidentally open the app and knew that Zeus was probably watching everything that happened.
“What do you think? For a poor student like me who has no parents and nothing, my face is probably the only thing that has some value.”
Luo Ruoqing stared at him in disbelief and asked: “You, you?”
“What?” Du Yan smiled, looking very calm: “Speaking of which, I should thank you. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t know that he is actually very rich.”
“You’re actually being kept!” Luo Ruoqing exclaimed in a low voice: “You’re so disgusting! This dirty money…”
At this time, the location chosen by Du Yan showed its superiority. This location next to the street was very noisy, and no one paid attention to the conversation between the two.
“So?”
Luo Ruoqing wanted to say that she would not take Du Yan’s dirty money, but then she changed her mind and decided that taking the money would be evidence. After all, her goal from the beginning to the end was not to see Du Yan appear in her sight again.
Du Yan watched Luo Ruoqing take the card and leave as if she couldn’t stay in the same proximity as him, then he took out his cell phone from his pocket.
As he expected, Zeus, on the other end of the phone, had already left.
***
Eddie was a little restless at the moment, he really wanted to go out and call David over.
No, David alone is not enough, he has to call the entire staff and guards to prevent sudden violent incidents in the future.
His Shushu was drinking ionized drinks, which could numb the minds of the Sagoru people and make them fall into a state of drifting and forgetting everything.
Eddie was so flustered because he knew that his family‘s Shushu never drank ionized beverages and even strictly prohibited his subordinates from drinking ionized beverages during work. In his opinion, a Sagoru who had lost his mind could not be called a Sagoru.
So what happened to cause a typical Sagoru who is always proud of it to temporarily abandon his Sagoru bottom line?
Zeus finally spoke, the dark golden pattern on his face becoming more and more obvious: “He said he was attracted to my money.”
Eddie scratched his head and thought for a long time, but he didn’t know how to persuade his Shushu.
“But, but, you said he is a very charming man, right?”
Even at this point, Zeus still couldn’t deny that Du Yan is a very charming person: “Yes.”
Eddie was about to continue to persuade him but noted that Zeus had woken up from his previous depression.
Zeus seemed to understand something, and the dark golden pattern gradually darkened: “You are right, he is so charming, but he only chooses to accept my money, which means that I am special in his eyes, right?”
Eddie: “?”
That’s not what he wanted to say. He just wanted to say that since the other person is so attractive, it’s acceptable for him to have some shortcomings like liking money.
However, Zeus has completely fallen into the logic of self-persuasion: “He likes money, I have money, so he must like me a little bit.”
Eddie was a little hesitant: “That sounds weird.”
Zeus ignored him and continued: “Du Yan is short of money, and I can provide a steady stream of money, so this is a good match.”
Eddie: “…”
