Chapter 381 Snow! Can't you hold on for even a minute?
Compared with previous versions, the most intuitive feeling of version 3.1 is that the plot content has become extremely rich and substantial.
This can be clearly seen from the frequent switching of perspectives when advancing the main storyline. The perspective is no longer limited to Feiying alone.
In previous versions, players basically experienced the development of the entire story from Feiying's first-person perspective, and other characters appeared more as supporting roles.
But in version 3.1, when Sakura Fubuki was advancing the main storyline, she discovered that the game's perspective began to switch arbitrarily between the three main characters: Feiying, Jasmine, and Lei.
Each character has his or her own independent plot line, and players can observe and understand the whole story from multiple different angles.
This multi-perspective narrative method makes the entire game's plot more three-dimensional and rich, and also brings a brand new gaming experience to players.
While controlling the character to advance the plot, Sakura Fubuki couldn't help but sigh at the level of care that went into this version update.
During this main quest, the game's main perspective shifted from Feiying to Jasmine.
Jasmine on the screen seemed a little reserved. After all, she still needed some time to adapt to the environment of the Mechanical City.
Jasmine in the game followed the natural development of the plot, and at Lei's enthusiastic and proactive invitation, came to visit Lei's private room on the middle floor of the tower.
Lei's room is decorated very warmly, with various exquisite small decorations and mechanical devices placed everywhere.
After visiting the various novel and interesting small doll toys unique to the Mechanical City in the room, Jasmine's eyes were inadvertently attracted by a special object in the corner of the room.
Her eyes rested on a particularly conspicuous flowerpot on the windowsill of the room.
That pot contained a very special plant that looked nothing like your average flower.
Jasmine walked closer and took a closer look, a sense of déjà vu dawning in her eyes.
She asked:
"This flower is..."
There was obvious hesitation and uncertainty in Jasmine's tone. Looking at the twin flowers, one black and one white, on the table, her expression seemed a little complicated.
Hearing Jasmine's question, Lei turned around with a gentle smile on her face.
She walked over to the flowerpot and explained in a gentle tone:
"This is a special flower I found in the ruins outside the Mechanical City."
Lei's hand gently stroked the edge of the flower pot:
"According to what my dear sister once told me, this is an extremely rare twin flower."
"Look, two completely different flowers, one black and one white, bloom together on the same plant."
Lei continued to explain in detail:
"The black flowers symbolize endings and death, representing the decay and passing of things."
"White flowers represent new life and hope, symbolizing a fresh start and endless possibilities in life."
"This twin flower is very magical. They draw nutrients from the same root system, but can bloom flowers with completely opposite properties."
There was an almost pious light in Lei's eyes:
"Sister Qing said that this flower represents the cycle of life and eternity. Death and rebirth have reached a perfect balance and unity here."
After listening to Lei's detailed explanation, Jasmine's expression became more serious.
She stared at the twin flowers, and a strong sense of déjà vu surged in her heart:
"And no matter how I look at it, this is a fairy flower, right? My detection equipment has detected the corresponding fairy power index."
Facing Jasmine's direct question, Lei nodded calmly without any hesitation:
"Yes, that's right."
"This is the fairy flower, a twin flower of life and death."
There was a calm certainty in Lei's tone.
Hearing Lei's confirmation, Jasmine's eyes showed mixed emotions.
She paused, then asked cautiously:
"So... you have been taking good care of them all this time?"
There was an indescribable sense of awe in Jasmine's tone, as if she was facing some sacred being.
When Lei heard this question, a pure and natural smile appeared on her face:
"Yeah! Ever since I carefully dug them out from the ruins, I have been carefully watering and fertilizing them."
"Once in the morning and once in the evening, without interruption."
Lei's tone was filled with the tenderness of taking care of a small animal:
"..."
When Jasmine heard this, she didn't know how to respond for a moment and could only fall silent.
Sakura Fubuki has been concentrating on advancing the main storyline that is full of everyday warmth, while Hua Yu has been quietly watching the development of the plot on the screen.
Due to Hua Lei's special relationship, Hua Yu pays special attention to and likes any plot involving the character of Lei.
At the beginning, the plot was normal, just ordinary daily conversations and interactions between the two characters.
The situation began to become a little subtle until the two characters in the plot were chatting and the topic gradually turned to the specific methods of how to take care of the twin flowers.
When Lei said in the game that she usually used special organic fertilizer she made by herself to feed the twin flowers once in the morning and once in the evening every day.
Even Hua Yu, who had always remained relatively calm and rational, couldn't hold back after hearing this conversation.
Her expression became very subtle, as if she wanted to say something but didn't know where to start.
As an older sister, you will often have a very clear understanding of your younger sister's personality.
Especially for an older sister like Hua Yu who is naturally caring and responsible, she will pay special attention and be sensitive to her younger sister's every move.
It is also because of this that after seeing this heartwarming daily plot in the game, Hua Yu once again clearly saw the shadow of his late sister Hua Lei in the character Lei.
That kind of innocent and serious attitude, coupled with the dark attributes that appear from time to time, are all strikingly similar to Hualei.
This similarity made Hua Yu feel mixed emotions.
Actually tell the truth.
If possible, Hua Yu still hopes that the "Taoyao Creation Theory" theory spontaneously created and widely spread by players is real.
Because once this hypothesis is proven to be true, then the corresponding "Flower Bud Reincarnation Theory" will have the possibility and theoretical basis for existence.
If these theories are true, it does not rule out the beautiful possibility that my sister is still alive and healthy and happy in another parallel world.
Moreover, although a long time has passed and the memory has become a little blurred due to the passage of time,
But Hua Yu clearly remembered that during the painful time when her sister was seriously ill and about to die, she had actually seen the character Tao Yao in the game.
It was not a dream or an illusion, but a magical encounter that really happened.
This experience has been deeply buried in Hua Yu's heart and has become one of the important reasons why she has a special feeling for the game "Fairy Journey".
While Hua Yu was caught up in such complicated fantasies, Sakura Fubuki was still concentrating on controlling the game character and continuing to advance the development of the main storyline.
As the plot naturally develops, Jasmine and Lei in the game gradually become aware of the subtle changes taking place in the twin flowers.
Among them, the most intuitive and obvious change is that the black flower among the twin flowers, which symbolizes death, has become more vivid and eye-catching, as if it contains some powerful and mysterious power.
In sharp contrast, the white flower representing new life appears somewhat listless, having lost its former vitality and vigor.
After careful observation and in-depth analysis, they finally came to a shocking conclusion.
This mysterious fairy flower symbolizes the existence of two fairies, and one of the fairies contained within it may be about to awaken from a long slumber.
Judging from all the current signs, the one who is about to awaken is likely to be the dark goblin who controls the power of death.
After realizing this important discovery, the main storyline of the game also showed corresponding task prompts at this key node.
A new mission objective popped up on the screen: Seek professional advice and help from the puppet.
Sakura Fubuki accepted this important task without hesitation, and then skillfully controlled the game character Jasmine to navigate through the complex architectural structure of the Mechanical City, and finally found the most critical and authoritative NPC puppet in the Mechanical City.
……
at this time.
In an exquisite room full of strong mechanical features, a beautiful and elegant doll is sitting quietly on a uniquely shaped armchair.
Her posture was dignified and elegant. She gently held a thick ancient book in her hands and read the contents of the pages attentively.
The decoration style of the whole room reflects the technological sense of the mechanical capital while retaining a warm and humanistic atmosphere.
Various sophisticated mechanical devices coexist harmoniously with books and artworks, creating a unique aesthetic.
After seeing this warm and peaceful scene, Sakura Fubuki couldn't help but control the game character Jasmine to circle around the doll Qing a few times.
She even rolled up and down, left and right, and back and forth a few times. After looking at the modeling of the doll from different angles, Sakura Fubuki slowly clicked the interaction button and officially entered the dialogue stage with the doll.
During this crucial conversation, Jasmine and Lei carefully displayed the mysterious twin flowers on the table.
They reported in detail to Renouqing the various abnormal signs and changes that had recently appeared in the twin flowers.
For example, the black flowers that symbolize death have become more vivid and eye-catching, exuding an unprecedented strong scent.
In contrast, the white flowers that symbolize new life appear to be withering and their vitality is gradually disappearing.
This obvious contrast makes one wonder if there is some deeper meaning behind it.
After careful observation and professional analysis, Renouqing finally gave her response:
"You brought her here at a very clever time."
"If nothing unexpected happens, she will soon wake up from her long sleep."
After Renpuppet made this important judgment, the game screen began to change subtly.
Then, the game system naturally cuts into a carefully crafted cutscene at this critical moment.
When the animation begins, the scene focuses on the mysterious twin flowers.
The black flower among the twin flowers in the pot, which represented the power of death, began to slowly fold its petals.
The petals curl inward one by one, gradually forming a tight bud-like structure.
As time went by, the bud continued to undergo wonderful changes, slowly turning into an oval-shaped cocoon.
What’s even more amazing is that the flower cocoon did not stop growing, but continued to expand and get bigger.
From the initial size of a flower, it gradually expands to a huge size large enough to accommodate an adult.
The whole process is full of mystery and solemnity, making the viewers hold their breath involuntarily.
Then, the inky black fairy aura began to slowly seep out from the surface of the flower cocoon.
