The Rise of Otaku-Chapter 337 - Waking up
The audience, led by Zhou Yu’s believers, formed a situation in which the hero, Zhou Yu needed to decide the future of the prisoner’s kingdom. It was really difficult to choose one of these two. After all, both of them had problems, and if Xiao Yue was not the right choice, then it would not be good at all. Whether it was for himself returning to reality, or the happiness of the prisoner’s kingdom, this was a crucial choice.
However, there was not much time for thinking.
Both Xiao Yue and Xiao Guang were looking at Zhou Yu with complicated eyes. They also didn’t expect that not only did this stranger, who came out of nowhere, help them to take back the control of the Prisoner’s Kingdom, but he was also going to decide the future of the kingdom.
Just when he was hesitant to choose, suddenly, another option appeared in Zhou Yu’s mind. Perhaps, the correct option was not to choose?
“Whether a king or a queen, they both have their own advantages and disadvantages, so it is better to rule the kingdom together. Whether everyone should take turns to rule the kingdom, or split the power, you may decide for yourself. I’m just an outsider, and I am not some kind of big figure, so there is no need for me to get involved in that.”
As soon as Zhou Yu finished, he wanted to get off the stage immediately, but at this moment, time seemed to have stopped, and everyone was motionless like a puppet. Immediately afterward, Zhou Yu saw that both Xiao Yue and Xiao Guang were glowing brightly, and then two bright lights suddenly flew out of their bodies, merged with each other, turning into a bracer in mid-air, and then flew into Zhou Yu’s hands.
It was the correct choice, and he finally got the key.
Moreover, the way to clear the level was also very simple and direct. The robot policeman suddenly appeared and repeated in a cold tone, “Warning, warning, the sky prison’s energy is about to run out. It will enter the automatic landing procedure. Please be prepared for the impact.”
Oh come on, first, it was a tornado at that island. Now, it is free-falling.
Before Zhou Yu was able to hide into the cell, the Prisoner’s Kingdom started to fall. The citizens of the Prisoner’s Kingdom remained as emotionless as puppets, unable to respond to the rapid fall in the air.
Damn it.
Zhou Yu cursed. He had been trapped here for nearly a month. Unexpectedly, he had been talking to a bunch of puppets.
After the darkness, what appeared before was a grotesque world. Like watching a documentary of the universe, all kinds of colorful but unknown things were surrounding him, and the deepest point of sight was a void space.
“This is the ultimate destination of wanderers, which does not exist in the two-dimensional ACG world, nor in the three-dimensional real world. Zhou Yu, you will also be here in the future and have your own fantasy world.”
A voice sounded behind him. It startled Zhou Yu.
Looking back, it was an ancient man who looked like a scholar, standing in the void and smiling. Suddenly there was a sense of closeness in his heart, and he asked suspiciously: “Senior Zhou Miao?”
“Yes.”
Zhou Yu didn’t know why Senior Zhou Miao would exist in Lin Wumo’s peach blossom illusion, and why this place was a cemetery for wanderer people. After carefully listening to Zhou Miao’s explanation, he finally understood something.
Starting from the beginning, in fact, Shang Yue and Lin Wumo were not the spies of the fallen city, and also had nothing to do with the starlight City, they were actually the children of wanderers. Just like Zhou Yu’s children such as little Muli. All wanderers had their own children, but it was a pity that only wanderers could come in this space, others could only continue to live in the two dimensional ACG world.
Although all wanderers had their own vast fantasy world, they still missed these children, so they tried their best to let their children enter this space. After years of research, they found a possible solution, that was, the dimensional crack in Luhua Village.
“So, the underground research institute of Luhua Village is also yours?”
“Yes, so you don’t need to worry, they are just a group of children who want to go home.”
It was actually not hard to understand this. After all, if he ended up here, he would also miss little Muli. It was just that why would they drag him to this place? And they even used this kind of violent method. He didn’t know if it would cause some harm to his body.
It turned out that it would take a long time to establish a stable channel through the dimensional crack, and only the person who has already obtained the Dimensional Certificate could complete the last process of establishing the channel. This dimensional certificate was the pendant and the bracer he obtained in the previous trial.
With them, Zhou Yu had the ability to convert his ACG world identity and his real-world identity at will. Of course, there was a side effect, that was, after projecting himself into the ACG world, his body in the real world would fall into a vegetative state, just like what was happening now. In addition, the conversion time should not be too long, otherwise, there would be a big problem.
In the end, it turns out that this whole thing was just a false alarm.
Heifengzhai could be trusted, and he also found out the purpose of the underground research institute. Moreover, he also acquired a very useful ability, so it was actually not that bad for falling into a vegetative state for one month.
Finally, he glanced at this strange space, and found that after it stabilized, it was like a galaxy. There were many small planets around a huge ‘sun’. Every planet was as lively as earth and each planet had a wanderer living on it.
One day, there would also be a planet here that belonged to himself. Just the thought of it made Zhou Yu excited.
“The Peach Blossom Fan that Wumo had was also developed by the underground research institute. Only those who passed the trial can enter the 2.5-dimensional space, but they can only enter and cannot exit, unless they have obtained the dimensional certificate, so please forgive him.”
Both Shang Yue and Lin Wumo were Zhou Miao’s children. It was no wonder that they were very close to each other. Moreover, all the people in Heifengzhai were probably related to wanderers. Of course, these were not all. In Starlight City or other small forces, there were still children of wanderers wandering in the world.
“Zhou Yu, if you can find these people, you can contact me through the underground research institute. You need to know that there are many treasures in the hands of wanderers. If they can help them find their children, you will be rewarded heavily.”
Quest: Searching for the children of the former wanderers. No time limit. Every time you find one, you will receive a big reward. According to statistics, a total of 325 people have not yet been found, and if all of them are found, you will be awarded the title of “Legendary Detective”.
Zhou Yu once again received a strange quest. But since there was no time limit, he could do it slowly.
After saying goodbye to Zhou Miao, Zhou Yu turned the bracer in his hand, then the pendant on his neck glowed a dazzling light.
Waking up, he saw a white ward. Fortunately, his family did not give up on him, nor did they directly send him to the crematorium. If that really happened, he would only be able to live in Luhua Village in his two-dimensional body, watching his loved ones in pain, but couldn’t comfort them.
There was no one in the ward, but there were a bunch of children sleeping on his belly.
Outside the ward was heavily guarded. It seemed that this place has become a temporary inner city of Luhua City, basically, all the important people of Luhua City were there.
Anyway, It’s time to go home.
