Chapter 121 I Come from Doomsday
Chapter 121 I Come from Doomsday
cg13.
"There is a kind of people in this world who pursue the ultimate purity, but they also have fears that are difficult for ordinary people to understand. I once saw a pianist who had the skills to reach the top of the world, but he couldn't get off a ship. He died with his purity."
"I like pure people. The games made by such people will definitely be interesting even if they are full of malice and darkness."
The arrival of Scorpio made John's life start to move in a fantastic direction.
In cg13, Scorpio demonstrated many magical powers.
Just like playing The Sims, everyone suddenly lost their ability to speak, and all the thoughts in everyone's head were expressed by patterns.
Scorpio took the desperate and confused John through the streets of the Windy City and found that the most common pattern in everyone's mind was always money.
"You see, the devil is everywhere. I completely agree with your idea. I am the only one who understands you."
"Fuck the rules of the adult world, fuck the money-first world. Why can't there be a pure game in this world?"
“If kids can’t trust games, what can they trust?”
“There are many ugly places in this world, but there should be a safe haven from the suffering of reality.”
Scorpio was obviously a child, but everything he said resonated strongly with John.
The suffering of reality should have a safe haven. The daily work is so heavy, and all the noise in the world comes from poverty, so why should these noises appear in the pure land of games?
“Follow me, let me bring everything in your mind into reality. I will let everyone know the true art hidden in your mind.”
John looked at Scorpio with some surprise:
"You... who are you? Are you the delusion in my mind?"
"Poor man, until this moment, you are still denying yourself. You are not pure enough, which makes your power unable to meet my requirements. It doesn't matter who I am, but tomorrow, I will let the whole Windy City sing the game in your mind. Then, you will understand that I am not delusional."
Scorpio smiled, waved, and left.
The final scene of cg13 is that overnight, posters, flags, and propaganda slogans were hung all over the streets of the Windy City.
The game called "Doomsday" appeared in everyone's sight in a more explosive way.
The promotional images made everyone look forward to the game because they were so real.
Some people even think that one of the zombies in the poster looks particularly like themselves.
……
cg14.
John, who witnessed the miracle, was finally convinced that the little boy he saw... was not a delusion.
This is a miracle.
Soon after the miracle happened, Catherine came to visit John again. In the pavilion in the Violet Garden, Catherine leaned against John and began to apologize to him:
"I'm sorry, John. We may pursue different things. This may depend on our different definitions of success. But I definitely love you. I shouldn't question you. I shouldn't maliciously think that you are being pretentious. If you didn't have your stubbornness, we wouldn't be able to make a game of this quality. I shouldn't have failed to inform you about such an important matter..."
"Because I always feel that you only need to be responsible for making a good game. I will take care of the complicated negotiations and intrigues."
"When I was very young, I thought you must be a genius. I still remember Charles' frustrated look. John, can you just treat it as a one-time mistake? We are still willing to continue to fight with you."
John was unmoved and just pointed at the posters around him:
"Catherine... I have a feeling that the end of the world is really coming. You should leave the Windy City."
Catherine thought John was a little crazy at this time:
"'Doomsday' is indeed coming soon. With the help of Tencent, we will be able to release the game soon. Although... although there are some changes that you are very resistant to, it actually... does not affect the gaming experience very much."
John shook his head:
"I will always remember what you did when I was at my lowest point, Catherine. Go away. The doomsday I'm talking about is the real doomsday, the same as the one on the poster... the doomsday. God has appeared, you know that?"
Catherine hugged John distressedly.
Sometimes, life is just incomprehensible to each other. John really told Catherine everything seriously.
But the more this happened, the more Catherine felt that John was crazy, and the more she blamed herself.
Catherine kept saying that the posters that appeared overnight were just promotions for the game. Although she was not notified, she was not sure why there would be so much promotion all of a sudden, and the promotional images were seriously inconsistent with the timing of the game.
Finally, John said:
"Catherine... I'm about to disappear. It's so strange. I used to think that how could two people love each other if they couldn't understand each other?"
"But now I feel that you cannot understand me, and I love you too. If the end of the world comes... you can go to this place."
“I have hidden all the character relationships and settings in the game here.”
John handed Catherine a blueprint, and Wen Xishu noticed... this was the hidden Easter egg.
John was disappointed by his lover's betrayal, or maybe it wasn't really betrayal, just a difference in ideas.
But after all, he loved Catherine.
There was only one coordinate and one sentence on the drawing.
Catherine really couldn't understand it, because she really didn't know how absurd what was going to happen next was.
But she asked very seriously:
"You are about to disappear. Do you mean...you are going to leave Windy City?"
John nodded, then shook his head:
"At least, you won't see me in the Windy City anymore."
Catherine had tears in her eyes:
"Will you stay for me?"
This is the last scene of cg14. There is struggle and hesitation in John's eyes.
There was only sadness and reluctance in Catherine's eyes.
……
cg15, which is also the last cg.
Scorpio told John a secret, while John was still struggling:
"Poor John, while you're staggering and struggling, let me show you something."
“This is the negative impact brought by Tencent.”
Scorpius handed John a form, as if it was from the future.
It lists many cases of children losing themselves in Tencent's games and starting to steal their parents' credit cards in order to play Tencent's games.
At the same time, "Doomsday", the first game that John really put his heart and soul into making, also began to have a large number of pay-to-win points.
Moreover, in the later stages of the game, the gap between paying players and ordinary players is incredibly large.
In addition, there are also enhancements and amplifications, which are like bottomless pits. In order to increase the amount of krypton gold, some out-of-print skins have even appeared.
Once you miss it, it will never come back.
So in order to get the out-of-print skins, players have been spending money. But the best thing is that every anniversary celebration, out-of-print skins will return.
The so-called out-of-print depends entirely on the planner’s mood.
John became angrier and angrier as he watched.
"The one who did all this was your teacher. He really combined the strengths of various planners and did all the bad things that could change the game environment."
"The game also has various group activities with good rewards, such as two groups of people collectively killing zombies, but there are players fighting against each other. This is to allow krypton gold players to kill people reasonably."
"But ordinary players have to participate for that little bit of reward and become toys for the kryptonian players. Isn't it interesting?"
"John, what are you still struggling with?"
At the end of cg15, John sat alone on a bench in the villa yard, hugging his knees and looking at the river.
Time, six hours ago.
This is the end of CG.
……
……
Reality, cg16.
After seeing all this, Wen Xishu felt very complicated.
Scorpio says:
"Brother, I really like games. You should have understood this since you got my knife."
"Although I don't know where you got this knife...but brother, it must have helped you a lot."
"I'm not a bad person."
Wen Xishu asked an unrelated question:
"Why do you call me brother? You call John poor John."
Scorpio smiled and said:
"You look a bit like my brother."
"Which brother? Which constellation?" Wen Xishu became bolder.
Scorpio still has the same smile:
"Brother, are you going to follow him? Then I can kill you right now. The world is so big, there must be someone who is more like him than you."
Wen Xishu stopped talking.
Scorpio got down from the bench and looked at the river:
"Money makes the game unfold abnormally. John's idea is not wrong. Brother, what do you think?"
Wen Xishu said:
"So... with so many people in this city, will they just turn into zombies?"
Scorpio waved his hand and said:
"There's no one here, brother. You are the humans. There are only NPCs here."
Wen Xishu suddenly realized that he could not discuss topics related to life with these guys who regarded themselves as gods.
When necessary, he can also give up everything, let alone a creature like Scorpio who has a little divinity.
Wen Xishu said:
"If I agree with you...can I get out of here alive?"
Wen Xishu actually doesn't agree with John.
John had made a fundamental mistake, and Wen Xishu also didn't think that the biggest danger of this mission was a face-to-face encounter with Scorpio.
If it were any other bunker player, without Scorpio's cheat knife, what attitude would Scorpio take?
Will it also make the bunker players identify with themselves?
In addition, I am somewhat similar to a Scorpio brother. Is it just a compliment or is it true?
In short, Wen Xishu is now in a very interesting situation. The biggest crisis in the eyes of all players is not a crisis for Wen Xishu.
Scorpio's attitude is not friendly, this god-like creature is very fickle. But it is definitely not too hostile either.
But Wen Xishu still wouldn't take any chances. If he just identified himself as a Scorpio, he could force himself to acknowledge John's "purity".
And just now, he had found the Easter egg in John's game.
He also understood why the blind could survive.
Now back to the game, Wen Xishu only needs to go to the coordinates marked in the easter egg to find clues to pass the level.
Logically speaking, this trip to the Desire Tower can end as long as you recognize Scorpio here.
You can even win the favor of Scorpio.
But this is the easy thing, not the right thing. Albert's words had been engraved in Wen Xishu's mind since some time ago.
It would be great if everything about the Desire Tower could be accomplished so easily.
But unfortunately, deep down in his heart, he did not agree with John.
"But the key to this game is not John, but Scorpio. John is indeed pure, and such people are easy to be guided or used."
"But the real difficulty lies in whether I can convince Scorpio. And whether I am qualified to discuss philosophy with him."
"I have to find a way to make Scorpio... approve."
Scorpio also replied at this time:
"Of course, brother. If you agree with me, then we are in the same boat, right? Especially since you have Xiaodao's approval."
"I like making friends and collecting dogs. I have no shortage of dogs, but I don't have many friends."
"My brothers and sisters have different abilities. They are very dangerous. More friends mean more options. What do you think, brother?"
Wen Xishu said:
"Let's play a game."
Playing a game is something Scorpio can't refuse. Scorpio's eyes suddenly light up:
"What kind of game?"
Wen Xishu remained calm: "I agree with what you said. I believe in the purity of people like John in making games. I also know that he hates those who destroy the purity of the game. But let's play a game. You play the defender and I play the attacker."
Scorpio finds this a little interesting:
"How to defend, how to attack?"
"It depends on whether you can do this. Use John's heart as a battlefield. Let's verify whether John, who is as pure as he is, really stops struggling and accepts his own theory. I will shake him, and you will consolidate him."
Wen Xishu paused for a moment and then said in a provocative manner:
"As a god, you are not afraid of me, right?"
Scorpio grinned and laughed happily:
"Brother, I like everyone who plays games with me. So, let's load the save file. Let's go to cg15. I'll give you a chance to change John."
But Scorpio's smile suddenly disappeared:
"But brother, if you play games with me, you must pay a price. If you lose, the compass in your hand will belong to me."
Wen Xishu was stunned. He didn't expect that his fake destiny compass was actually being targeted.
Wen Xishu was a little hesitant... If he failed, would this bet change history to some extent?
Wen Xishu thought for a moment and said:
"You can just grab it."
Scorpio shakes his head:
"Brother, I told you that I am not your enemy, and there is no grudge between us. If I want to take something from you, I will do it in the most friendly way I think."
"Want to continue playing this game with me?"
Wen Xishu no longer hesitated:
"Okay, let's get started."
Scorpio smiled again and snapped his fingers:
"Brother, you are awesome!"
……
……
cg15.
The appearance of the miracle made John realize that his life seemed to be unfolding in a magical way.
The god of games has come. Like himself, he will punish all those who make the game no longer pure.
The purest game in his heart will come true in a real way, and the most real game in the world is about to be born.
The end is coming, and everyone will become part of the game. No one can interfere with their own game anymore.
But Catherine's appearance, her sincere apology and retention made John hesitate again. John finally made a choice and gave Catherine a safe coordinate, which was his love for Catherine.
At this time, Scorpio finally appeared in front of John with the "form from the future", reinforcing John's opinion of this group of people's distorted game.
It was at this moment that John made his final decision: He would become a pure defender of the game.
The story seems to have been concluded at this point.
But now, under the magical power of Scorpio, the game has been reloaded.
But this time, unlike before, Wen Xishu appeared in front of John.
"Can I sit next to you, John?"
"who are you?"
"A person who is looking forward to "Doomsday" just like you. No, I have to use a more accurate term, a person who once looked forward to "Doomsday."
Scorpio was also beside John at this time. Scorpio was very curious about what Wen Xishu would do.
When John heard the word "Doomsday", his first reaction was the game "Doomsday" rather than the real Doomsday.
Wen Xishu knew that in order to impress John, he had to have something that Scorpio didn't know. The only thing Scorpio didn't know was the timeline.
"For the first mission, you taught me to be cruel in the apocalypse. When faced with the mother and daughter's pleas, I chose not to accept their mission. I chose to reunite them. I robbed and killed, but I knew it was the right thing to do."
John was stunned.
This is indeed the content of "Doom", but it has been rejected by his former mentor, who is now the game planner of "Doom".
The reason was that it would lead children astray and would not pass the review. Only the development team knew about this task.
"For the second mission, I found supplies here... in your neighbor's house, a man named Duan Donghuo from the Eastern Country. I successfully took advantage of Duan Donghuo's lustful nature and showed weakness to the enemy, leading him to the pavilion. I killed him while he was distracted."
"At the time, I was thinking, the tone of this game is really dark. Do the game's producers really want to bring happiness to the players?"
John was no longer in a daze, but looked at Wen Xishu in amazement. Because this was John's inner thoughts...
This level plan has not actually been implemented yet. This is a level that no one knows about except himself.
Wen Xishu sighed softly:
"Look at the 'God' next to you. He is about to destroy this city. Although the end of the world is inevitable, and although most people here will turn into other monsters even if they don't turn into zombies, at least fate gives them a choice."
"I used to like a saying that games are all about players making interesting choices."
"But John, what you're about to do is take away choices from all of us."
"In the third level of the game, I went to the Golden Building, which is also where the Tengyi Group has its offices."
“There, humans are forced to fight zombies. It’s very dark. To break through, players must use darker and more perverted roles to defeat the enemy.”
"I'm wondering, can this game still be called a game? You always force players to make choices at the beginning of the mission in a way that's not interesting. But the tone of your entire game is so dark..."
"Players seem to have two choices, but everyone knows what the price of playing the good guy is in that game, so they can only play the bad guy. They... never have a choice. Can such a game still be called a game?"
John suddenly said loudly:
"Who are you? How do you know something that hasn't been published yet?"
Wen Xishu did not answer John's question. He started the next topic:
"When you were a child, the happiest thing in your life was playing games with your father. It was a simple, pure joy."
"But something happened in your family, and one day you discovered that your father no longer smiled because of playing games."
"You blame everything on money. That's when you start to avoid problems and blame all the sins on money."
"When you get to college, you think you are enjoying the fun of games, enjoying the pure joy of games. But when your roommates start discussing valuable equipment, your sensitive heart starts to escape again..."
"You're thinking, how can that be joyful? Showing off...how can that be pure joy of play?"
John's body shuddered.
Wen Xishu said:
"But John, why can't we show off in games? Why can't the happiness I get from buying items with money be considered pure happiness?"
"Because you hate money, you always think that money will deprive people of the fun of experiencing the game, and there are indeed many examples of this."
"But the reason you hate money is because of your father. You never dare to face this fact. There are many reasons why the smile on your father's face disappeared."
"He was in debt and had no interest in playing games. He was eager for money and had no interest in playing games. He had relationship problems with his wife and had no interest in playing games... He even felt that the game was not fun and he didn't want to play."
"He doesn't want to stay in this family anymore. He doesn't want to endure his wife's scolding anymore. He is a gambler. He lost the gambling. He lost the dignity of a father in front of you. All this stems from his greed, arrogance and self-esteem."
"But you refuse to accept this. You can't accept that your father has become a 'bad guy'. Your father can't be wrong, so let's create a new villain."
John clenched his fists and shook his head.
"That's not the case. That's not the case..."
His eyes were bloodshot because of anger. But Wen Xishu didn't care. As long as Scorpio didn't make a move, he would stand there and let John hit him, but he couldn't be killed.
Wen Xishu said:
"Money has become the villain in your life, but the good thing is that everything you do from now on becomes extremely pure, because you don't care about profit. I fully believe that you can become a role model for many people. For example, Catherine."
"The downside is that your perspective becomes narrow because you refuse to face certain issues."
Wen Xishu stood up and looked down at John. Scorpio next to him seemed to be non-existent, as if the whole thing had nothing to do with him.
Scorpio actually didn't expect that the entry point of "brother" would be here. The departure of his father was indeed the first tragedy in John's life.
He originally thought that Wen Xishu had just glanced at the CG content roughly, but now, he seemed to feel Wen Xishu's "task interpretation" ability.
Perhaps in the eyes of many people, the smile on John's father's face was caused by gambling, and it seems not wrong to blame money for this result.
But Wen Xishu knew that this was wrong.
And it was from here that John kept making mistakes. So much so that when he was in the university dormitory, Wen Xishu felt that John...was not pure, but a little extreme.
"Paranoia is actually a good quality in many areas, and it also covers up your shortcomings. Catherine and everyone in the team thinks you are very pure and you have no worldly desires."
"But they don't know that you just hate money."
"According to this logic, when your mentor backstabs you, you don't think it's because of the mentor's moral corruption, you first blame it on money."
"When your roommates enjoy the spoils, you don't think they are truly happy, you think their values are corrupted by money. You blame it on money."
"When your partners finally get their reward after all the hard work, and the game is sold to a big company, and they become famous and successful, you don't feel that you have won. You just feel that you have been defeated by the big devil called money. You still blame it on money."
John gritted his teeth and his whole body was trembling. He suddenly stood up and grabbed Wen Xishu by the collar.
Lies don't hurt, truth is the knife.
"Isn't it? Isn't the reason they were all corrupted because of money?" John grabbed Wen Xishu's collar and shouted angrily.
Wen Xishu let John grab his collar. He just tilted his head back slightly, and then - raised his hand and slapped him.
Bang, the sound was so crisp that it hit John's face and made him stunned.
Wen Xishu also rarely raised his eyebrows, with a hint of anger:
"Then what do you think Catherine likes about you? When you were at your lowest point in life, she proposed to you. Was she attracted by your money?"
"When you feel betrayed, have you ever thought that there were seven people who were willing to sell everything they had to realize your dream with you?"
"When you think they are corrupted by money, have you ever thought that they are not the ones who recognized you only when you were rich. They are the ones who were willing to conquer the world with you from the very beginning, when you had nothing."
"Now you unilaterally declare that they are corrupted by money. Do you think you are right?"
"You would rather believe that a girl like Catherine was corrupted by money than believe in her courage to stand up to you when you were at your lowest point. You are such a coward!"
"John, so many years have passed, and you are still the coward who refuses to believe that your father has turned bad and just keeps running away!"
The last sentence was almost uttered in a growl.
John's face showed confusion, followed by a deepening fear. He opened his mouth slightly, wanting to explain, but he couldn't say a word.
Wen Xishu suddenly changed the subject and started attacking from another angle:
"I don't know why your game has become like this. There is no justice in your game anymore. After the apocalypse, every mission must be interpreted from a dark perspective in order to survive in your game."
"Indeed, this is the seriousness you expect. But do you really approve of such a game?"
Wen Xishu grabbed John's collar again and said very seriously:
"When I was a kid, if you gave me a gun with simple A-shaped bullets and three lives, I would believe that the protagonist of Contra would be able to complete his mission."
"Even if Mario didn't eat the mushrooms, facing so many enemies, I firmly believe that he can defeat the big devil just by jumping. Because when it and I join forces, we are the strongest."
"No matter how many tanks the enemy has, I firmly believe that I can defeat them and defend the old commander's earth wall. I believe in my skills and I will definitely be able to fight my way out of the siege."
"A hero who is only level one in the Novice Village doesn't care how strong the Demon King in the distance is, because I, who am controlling him, firmly believe that I can end the Demon King's rule together with him!"
"Fuck the rules of reality, fuck the seriousness, fuck the rationality. What I want is the unreasonable, what I want is to transcend reality. Otherwise, why should I play games?"
"These games gave me faith and courage very early on. They made me believe that I am the protagonist of this world. Even if life destroys me again and again, I can just start over again."
"But what about you, John? What did you bring to your game? The impending doomsday is all about your personal resentment. The cruelty and blood you want are there, and the villain who controls the money you want is also there, but where is the person who can enjoy the game happily?"
"Is he dead? If we can't even trust the game, what else can we trust?"
The last question from John himself hit John between the eyebrows like a boomerang.
He suddenly remembered that many years ago, he had actually asked why the bomber could defeat so many enemies.
My father said at the time that because we hold the handle, we can do anything.
But as his father left, he gradually forgot about these things. Deep down in his heart, he even began to deny these things.
"I can't stop the end of the world, John, and I really think you have a talent for making games."
"I don't think changing you will have any impact on everything in Windy City. If zombies don't come, other monsters will."
Wen Xishu's emotions began to calm down:
"But I came here because I still hope you can think carefully about the decision you are about to make. Because your friends are waiting for you, you have countless partners in the game, and in reality, Catherine is still trying to keep you."
"They may have indeed been defeated by the devil called reality, but they are all waiting for you to challenge the devil again."
"Your talent has been chosen by God. You have the ability to make games come true. Maybe in your eyes, the perfect game you have in mind is finally about to be realized."
"But when the game becomes reality, it is no longer a game. Everything in the game can be cruel and dark, because players know that it is just a game. They have the right to spoof the game, but they also have the right to immerse themselves in the experience and enjoy the game."
"But the reality is that when 'The End' becomes the End of the World... it no longer matters whether it's serious or not."
John's anger gradually subsided. He seemed to have never thought about the reason why he hated money.
I never realized that there is a fundamental difference between the coming of the end of the world and the coming of "The End of the World".
John began to panic after hearing Xishu's words. After a long silence, John asked the question he had asked at the beginning:
"Who... who are you? Can you tell me now?"
Wen Xishu knew that this conversation had come to an end:
"I come from the apocalypse and I am a player in your game."
This answer surprised John, but it seemed so reasonable. After Scorpio appeared, it seemed that it was not strange for the players in his game to travel to his world.
He asked the second question, which was also his last conversation with Wen Xishu:
"Doomsday... is it fun?"
“Doomsday is good, but Doomsday is bad.”
John understood, and he really wanted to say sorry, but he couldn't make a sound. He was like a child who had done something wrong.
Although all the tragedies had not yet happened, he actually accepted the deal not long ago.
The end of the world is finally coming. At this moment, John suddenly became afraid and wanted to cancel his deal with God.
God no longer seemed to be the God with whom he resonated, but rather a demon with whom he had made an evil deal.
Scorpio saw all of John's expressions and suddenly snapped his fingers.
John, and indeed the whole world, paused again.
Wen Xishu said:
"It looks like my turn is over."
Scorpio suddenly snapped his fingers and everything around him stopped moving.
"Yes, brother, your speech was great, and I was almost convinced. But unfortunately, the deal has been made, the contract has been established, and it cannot be changed."
“Doomsday will definitely come in the form of Doomsday. He will become the greatest evil in Windy City. People escape reality and enter games, but he brings games into reality. Isn’t this interesting?”
God is indeed a very annoying creature.
Wen Xishu could imagine that if nothing could be changed, the zombie apocalypse would eventually come as shown in the Weird Tower...
A man like John must have suffered great pain and regret after coming to terms with the past.
"Is the cost of cooperating with you so huge?" Wen Xishu asked.
Scorpio shakes his head:
"Brother, he is just an attempt of mine, just a toy. How can he be called a cooperation? If you are willing to help me, we can be considered as a cooperation. A cooperative partner will naturally be treated differently."
Wen Xishu was unmoved:
"I believe John, in the world of obsession, the end of the world must be different from before."
Scorpio says:
"John's paranoia is terrible. Do you think you can change him with just a few words?"
Wen Xishu shook his head:
"No, I just bet that John was a kind person from the beginning."
Scorpio is interested:
"Why do you say that?"
Wen Xishu said:
"If I tell you, will you distort him?"
Scorpio shakes his head:
"I just gave him a chance to realize his self-worth. I didn't distort him. To be exact, I just agreed with his previous opinion."
"But your appearance, brother, made me start thinking, maybe he is indeed wrong."
Wen Xishu said seriously:
“It makes me feel very honored.”
Scorpio says:
"So brother, why do you believe him?"
Wen Xishu rarely smiled:
"Because I saw the Easter eggs. I suddenly understood... the kindness in John's heart."
Scorpio is puzzled:
"I don't understand."
Wen Xishu is very patient with Scorpio. He knows that the key this time is not actually about John. John is paranoid, but John is not evil in his heart.
"When I participated in 'Doomsday', I had a friend who was determined to die and also participated in Doomsday."
"He was a blind man, and he really wanted to die, but he didn't know why he survived the apocalypse."
"I can imagine that in the eyes of a guy as paranoid as John, he would never allow the game to have any situation that is inconsistent with the game settings."
"The end of the world should have an apocalyptic atmosphere, it should be dark and evil, and everything should be based on profit."
"But John added an Easter egg to the game, which he later told Catherine."
Scorpio seems to understand:
"Zombies...won't hurt disabled people?"
Wen Xishu nodded:
"Yes, when you lose the courage to face life, the monsters in the game will not attack you..."
"John has his own gentleness. He uses this way to tell Catherine that he is not paranoid, he is just pure."
"Also, when I was searching for John's past, I found this piece of news: Tim, a game anchor who was disabled in both legs and in the late stage of cancer, wanted to play the real 'Doomsday'. John said he would find a way to let him play it before he died."
"It can be seen that when facing those who have lost their courage in life, John will always gently give the greatest support. At that time, John's game had been bought by Tencent, but John still promised to let Tim play this game."
"This kind of person is actually someone who loves games from the bottom of his heart. If he hadn't been defeated by money in the past, he would definitely make a game that heals people's hearts."
“I am also convinced that John’s purity is not self-deception. He is really excellent and really wants to make good works. Such a person will definitely find himself again, so I believe in him.”
Scorpio was slightly surprised. This was the first time he did that. He looked a little confused.
"But brother, you... didn't say that to him. Your words seemed to completely deny his game."
Wen Xishu smiled and said:
"All's fair in war, desperate times call for desperate measures. Isn't the game all about countering the opponent's moves?"
"This is the darkest time in John's heart. Especially under the instigation of you, a god, he is more and more convinced that his hatred of money is correct."
"Of course I have to completely deny him first, break him into pieces, and then let him pick himself up piece by piece."
Scorpio didn't say anything, but just looked at Wen Xishu with some confusion.
Wen Xishu said:
"It's your turn now. Won't you re-enforce his dislike for money?"
Scorpio knew that this was Wen Xishu's way of playing hard to get, but he still smiled and said:
"I suddenly began to wonder, if he is really worthy of your trust, what changes will there be in the new 'Doomsday'."
"So, let's put it this way, brother. It's not my turn anymore. You delivered a fatal blow in this round."
Wen Xishu was a little surprised that Scorpio, the "devil" who could deceive John and turn millions of people in a city into zombies, was actually so easy to talk to.
At this time, Wen Xishu suddenly received a notification that the mission was over.
Scorpio seemed to know that Wen Xishu was leaving, and he said:
"But I'm not that easy to get rid of, brother. You already owe me a favor, and I have to repay it."
Wen Xishu was not surprised, and it even made him feel at ease.
He knew from the beginning that this mission was not to convince John, who was already a kind person, but to gain Scorpio's approval.
Hearing Scorpio say this, Wen Xishu did not object at all:
"Of course, I'm always willing to serve you, good brother."
