Chapter 1003: Chapter 1003 Ice Queen 14

Everyone’s dead...

Chang Weicai reminisces about the tragic scene he saw under the water, the pain reaching its peak...

He swims through the seafloor, witnessing the shipwrecks. All the people on board had died, countless robotic dolls piled up in the layers of ice, those faces, some fierce, some frightened, some numb... without exception, all dead.

If it were just that, perhaps he wouldn’t be so deeply grieved.

But when, at the bottom of the ice layer, he exerted all his strength to search for an exit, he finally came under the castle, only to see even more, densely packed robotic dolls! Among the piles of dolls, there were faces he was all too familiar with!

There’s no way he could be mistaken...

Those dolls belonged to the base headquarters’ personnel; although he didn’t know their names, he had encountered them in the elevators, saw them in the cafeteria, talked to them on the street... the research group, the evaluation group, security group, and the Shen Family...

Chang Weicai closed his eyes, unable to bear continuing the memory.

He had heard that the base was supposed to relocate collectively northward. Why did the people from the base appear here? Could it be that they were caught in a blizzard while on the road and entered the game?

"Hey..." Ed asked him tremblingly, "Why don’t you speak, old man, how did you end up like this? Just now, when you said everyone’s dead, what did you mean? Hey!..."

Chang Weicai didn’t answer.

In fact, he didn’t know what to say...

With his frostbitten stiff hands, he gently picks up the broken hand on the ground.

The little hand was covered with mud and blood, fingers broken, exposing the metal skeleton inside, the arm was also smashed into a deformed shape by Iron Pestle, but in its palm lay an unharmed green sprout.

The broken hand moved slightly, then lay limp in Chang Weicai’s hands, unresponsive.

"Are you going to die too ..."

Chang Weicai choked up, a dull pain in his chest.

Thinking back to when Shen Mo and Bai Youwei frequently entered the game, he, a useless old man, only had Pan Xiaoxin and this hand for company. They stayed inside the dollhouse, gardening, raising chickens, cooking... At that time, he said to it:

"You have to be obedient, don’t always be so disorderly, you must be born to be useful, to not have lived in vain..."

Now, it seems he and it have fulfilled those promises...

Chang Weicai carefully wiped the mud off the broken hand and gently placed it into his backpack. He didn’t know if it could come back to life, nor did he know how to treat it; all he could do now was to win this game.

Only by winning would all sacrifices and efforts become valuable.

Chang Weicai collected the soil from the ground, replanted the sprout into the pot, watered it, added firewood, then hugged the flower pot close to the fire, sharing the silence.

He was quiet, so Ed no longer asked anything. He observed Chang Weicai for a while, ensuring that Chang Weicai had no intention of attacking him before slowly moving over to share the warmth of the fire.

Ed glanced at Chang Weicai’s flower pot from the corner of his eye.

A little wilted...

Brian had gone mad earlier. Although the broken hand had protected the seedling, the pot had taken a hit, and the roots had come loose from the soil, which must have had some impact.

Ed felt slightly relieved.

Originally he had been furious at Brian for his craziness, but now seeing the poor state of Chang Weicai’s plant, he felt a bit of schadenfreude.

As long as his own rose bloomed before Chang Weicai’s, he could win.

But... now that the old man has turned into a monster, what if that made him desperate and he attacked when he finds out that his sprout isn’t growing as well as his own?

He shouldn’t, right?

The rules of the game restricted him, at least the old man wouldn’t take direct action, and besides, they weren’t short on firewood or water now, what was there to worry about?

Ed’s mind was a mess, alternating between being wary of Chang Weicai, caring for the seedling, and trying to make sense of the things Chang Weicai had just said...

During such tortuous waiting, the sprouts of both parties gradually grew, branches and leaves flourishing.

Then, the Ice Queen came too...
