Chapter 511 Thirty-Three Years and Seven Months
The login device that Mike mentioned is hidden in the basement of his manor.
Or rather, the collection room.
Mike never concealed his love for games, let alone the fact that he moved the company's login device to his own manor.
Because of his status and position, he didn't need to hide these things at all. Taking the login device away was his right as a game developer and the chief planner of "Endless World".
So Li Qi saw Mike's landing capsule in the basement smoothly.
Several landing capsules with old shapes, some of which looked like hibernation devices.
"These are all old things from the last century. At that time, in order to log in to the world created by the world editor, these landing capsules had to be used. Although they have been simplified and the landing devices have become as big as glasses, Endless World is an old game after all. If you want to log in, you can only use these..."
When Mike saw the landing capsule he made, he became more talkative. He began to chatter non-stop. At the end, he turned his head and looked at the people who followed him in:
"... I hope you don't mind too much."
"Kiri..." Art, who followed closely behind Li Qi, frowned and approached: "Do you really want to use this backward device to... play a game that has been discontinued?"
Art's words were full of confusion.
His confusion was also the question in the hearts of others.
With Li Qi's status and position, as long as he wanted to play games, it would be no problem even if he created a game for him to play.
Why did he care so much about an outdated game?
Li Qi didn't plan to tell them, and he wouldn't tell them.
The things in the other world are Li Qi's own secrets. He will not tell anyone, even if his mother Zelia and his brother Yolin may have known his general situation, Li Qi will not tell anyone about the doomsday world.
Moreover, even if he really said it, Li Qi did not think that the people in front of him would understand.
Just like no one would regard a string of data as life, people in the interstellar era would not regard a group of beings that do not belong to this world as life.
Like Mike, like Sophie Yuna.
"It's okay." Li Qi patted Art's shoulder and said seriously: "I will be fine, my mother is protecting me, you know."
"..."
Hearing Li Qi say this, Art also shut up.
Li Qi's mother Zelia is a ninth-level mechanic of the Empire. With her protecting Li Qi, Li Qi will definitely be fine even if she is not with Li Qi.
But the more Li Qi is like this, the more confused Art is.
He doesn't know whether he can still be regarded as Li Qi's exclusive knight now, because Li Qi doesn't seem to need his protection at all.
Greer didn't understand the conversation between Li Qi and Art. Although Ephisia could understand it, she didn't explain it to others.
She just asked worriedly:
"You want to go alone?"
"Of course." Li Qi said seriously: "You are different from me. Even if something really happens to me, my life will not be in danger, but you can't."
There is a consciousness backup behind Li Qi. Even if the worst result is that Li Qi dies here, he can be resurrected at home.
Although this takes a certain amount of time and cost, at least Li Qi will not die.
But Ephisia and Greer can't do it.
Although Greer's status is noble, she should not have her own consciousness backup.
Although Ephisia is a royal family, an exiled royal family cannot be compared with the direct lineage, and she has no consciousness backup.
If something happens to the two of them, it will be a real accident. Li Qi doesn't want these two girls to die here for him.
Worried that several people would follow him after he entered the game world, Li Qi said to Mike again:
"Mr. Mike, don't let others log in after I log in."
"Well... even if I want to, there's no way." Mike shrugged: "The computing power here is only enough for one person to log in to the game. Even if the rest of the people log in, they can't get administrator privileges. And I'm not pouring cold water on you. Your login this time is likely to fail. After all, this is a game from many years ago."
When the game company disconnected from the world where "Endless World" was located, that world was already submerged in the vast ocean of the world.
It is impossible to find the colored bubble belonging to "Endless World" among countless colored bubbles, even if that world has the AI core left by the game company, and Mike has a landing capsule to connect.
Even if Li Qi's "sincerity" had not touched Mike, Mike would not allow Li Qi to do such a risky thing.
"I know... Anyway, please, Mr. Mike."
Li Qi said to Mike seriously, then lay in the landing capsule, put on his helmet, and watched the cover of the landing capsule slowly close.
After many years, Li Qi was able to return to the world he had been to before. This must be said to be a very wonderful thing.
After all, Li Qi's reincarnation has always been a one-way ticket. He can keep moving forward, but he can't go back to any world he has been to.
But now he has found such a possibility.
And the doomsday world on the verge of collapse is the first stop on Li Qi's way back!
Reluctantly suppressing the excitement in his heart, Li Qi took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
...
Crossing the world, this is not the first time Li Qi has experienced it.
From the beginning, I don’t know anything, to the later being able to vaguely sense what state I am in, to the end being able to see the colorful sea of the world, and to clearly know why I am targeted by the world in every life.
Every progress represents the improvement of Li Qi's soul power, and also gives Li Qi a deeper understanding of the existence of the world.
But this time travel, Li Qi found that his past experience was completely useless.
Because strictly speaking, he is not 'traveling', he is just logging into a game.
So what Li Qi could see was the countless colorful meteors that passed by from front to back, the narrow path that could not be seen at first sight, and the smooth shuttle without any sense of time travel.
Li Qi tried to close his eyes to feel all this, but in the end he could not sense anything.
It seemed as if something blocked his perception of the outside world.
Li Qi also had some guesses about what blocked his perception, which seemed to be a thick barrier formed by rules and a rule belonging to the interstellar world.
Li Qi, who had no time to experience the rules of the interstellar era in detail and did not know how long he had traveled through the colorful tunnel, finally "walked" to the end of the road.
The colorful light spots around stopped and disappeared, and the pure white space appeared in front of Li Qi.
At the same time, a broken, seemingly fragmented data core also appeared in front of Li Qi.
A sound as if broken in Li Qi's ears were heard at the same time.
——Check…detect…detect…to…
“…”
——Administrator...Login...is giving...is giving...relevant permissions...
Li Qi waited patiently, and after all the prompt sounds disappeared, he felt a familiar feeling.
It was like someone was saying ‘Welcome back’ and preparing him with the warmth of everything.
The eyes closed and opened again, the pure white space disappeared, and what appeared before Li Qi was a vast white wilderness.
Li Qi looked up and saw that the sky was dim and dull, but the surrounding temperature returned to the right temperature. Although it was still cold, it did not freeze to death.
Because of this, although the surrounding area is still white, Li Qi can also see some vegetation and weeds growing tenaciously.
Feeling the chill in the air, opening his eyes to look at the rules of this world, and the familiar lines of rules re-emerged in his eyes, Li Qicai finally felt the reality of returning to the doomsday world.
He is back.
Knowing that Li Qi is not the only one who comes back in this world. When Li Qi appears here and recalls the feeling of being in the doomsday world, a petite figure appears in front of Li Qi.
White dress, long black hair, ID of the "Spirit of the World" on the head, as a girl with the will of this world, she looked at Li Qi with complicated eyes:
“…You’re back.”
"Well, I'm back, don't you welcome me?"
Li Qi asked with a smile.
The girl looked at Li Qi seriously for a while and laughed out loud: "Well, welcome back."
There was a little relaxation in her smile, and her tight body also soothed at the same time, because she made an agreement with Li Qi, and she knew that when Li Qi returned here, it meant that he had a solution.
This dark and light-free doomsday world finally ushered in a day when the clouds cleared.
After greeting each other, Li Qi began to ask about what happened after he left. The first thing he asked was the time in the past of this world.
"How long have I been away?"
Although the light domain isolates the time of this universe, Li Qi does not ensure that the time of this world will slow down, so he is ready for hundreds of years.
But surprisingly, he hasn't left for too long.
"Thirty-three years, you have been away for thirty-three years, seven months and seven days."
The Spirit of the World accurately states when Li Qi left.
Li Qi was a little stunned and a little surprised: "Double?"
"What twice?"
"I mean, the time in the world I am in is about twice the time in this world."
Li Qi is already sixteen years old in the interstellar world, which means he has lived in the interstellar world for sixteen years.
Thirty-three years have passed in the Doomsday world. Including the extra months Li Qi has been in Li Qi's mother's belly, the time difference between Li Qi and Li Qi is still in her mother's belly should be exactly twice the time difference, and the error will not be too high.
This somewhat surprised Li Qi.
You should know that although the game "Endless World" is a game from the last century, it has only been decades since it stopped the server and Li Qi came to him.
In decades, five versions have been updated. There have been countless billions of years, and it has been so long that there is no trace of civilization left.
But under the influence of the light domain, the time difference between the two worlds was shortened to twice!
And since the time difference has been shortened so much, it means...
"The people I know are still alive?"
Li Qi looked at the spirit of the world, and his eyes became more eager.
