Chapter 45: Stick to Your Own Ideas
Should I interfere or not...
This is a very serious question!
For Lu Yu, who currently has insufficient points, he can only choose to interfere once in each simulation.
Usually, this interference is used to change events and improve the overall simulation result. Lu Yu is aware of this, and it was not meant for him to just enjoy it from the beginning.
But...
But...
Occasionally, it doesn't seem like a bad idea to enjoy it a bit. After all, this time, when imitating Lu Yu, he feels that things have gone somewhat awry. There's something wrong with this ghostly birth.
Normally, Lu Yu thought that if he didn't have the talent of the Lone Star of Evil Spirit, he would have lost his parents due to the Houkai collapse at the age of around 10, then entered Cocolia's orphanage, developed feelings with Duck and others, and then the related stories would begin.
But this time, damn it, the talent of the Lone Star of God is too overpowered. It killed his parents too early, causing Cocolia to take the blame in advance, and then he joined Cocolia's side.
At this point, Lu Yu understood that a 4-star talent with negative effects is actually stronger than those without negative effects. This 4-star talent completely led this simulation astray in a sense.
Forget it, since everything has gone awry, let's save some points.
Five points, more or less, and he's not particularly greedy for Cocolia's body, so there's no need to interfere and just have a good time.
The only chance to interfere is to see if he can change the subsequent plot. He's supposed to be a gentleman simulator, and it's not very gentlemanly to interfere, especially for the girls.
[Age 18: After having some in-depth exchanges with Cocolia, you successfully appease her. With your heroic demeanor, you have a special set of taming skills for women, and Cocolia, who already trusts you, begins to obey your commands.
Having known the suffering of the world from a young age, you dissuaded Cocolia from using the orphans for experiments. You made an oath to Cocolia that you would find a way to solve the Houkai issue for the children.]
[Age 19: As time goes by, everyone in the orphanage has gradually grown up. Being born with a Houkai physique, you can clearly feel everyone's physical condition. The damned Houkai energy is gradually eroding the children in the orphanage. You look at the orphanage, full of laughter and joy, and feel that you should do something about it. Living with Cocolia since childhood, you have a deep understanding of Anti-Entropy's technology and have a negative view of the organization that has split from Destiny. In the end, you choose to contact the Anti-Entropy organization.]
[Age 20: After negotiating for a period of time, you decide to visit Anti-Entropy. After lying to everyone that you want to take a trip alone, you come to a branch of Anti-Entropy. After showing the branch manager the Houkai energy in your body, the manager contacts the headquarters at lightning speed. Then you head to the headquarters of Anti-Entropy. At the training ground in the headquarters, you challenge and defeat ten A-level Valkyries. Your outstanding performance catches the attention of Otto Apocalypse, the Archbishop of Anti-Entropy. You reveal your identity and purpose to Otto. After listening to your needs, Otto contemplates and becomes very interested in your physique. Finally, you reach an agreement. You become a warrior of Anti-Entropy to fight for them, and Otto will help you solve the issue of your Houkai physique.]
"Otto... Since it doesn't involve any Herrscher this time, it should be trustworthy."
When it comes to fighting against Houkai, Otto is much more reliable than Cocolia. Although Otto may not have a good personal reputation, thinking about it carefully, he didn't really lie to Immortal Chiyuan!
"Okay, I won't interfere here. I'll trust Otto this time."
[Age 21: Because you often need to carry out missions dispatched by Anti-Entropy, you start leaving home frequently and spend less time with the children in the orphanage. However, those former children have grown up, and like you once did, they begin to take care of the new children in the orphanage. Now, the orphanage is like a big family. Cocolia is the mother figure, and you and the first batch of children who entered the orphanage are like older siblings. Of course, your relationship with Cocolia has not been revealed; otherwise, everyone would see you as a father.
Your unusual behavior has attracted the attention of many people. Under everyone's questioning, you confessed to some people what you are currently doing. After learning that you are now fighting against Houkai as a soldier, many people do not support your approach. For the girls living in the orphanage, their lives are already happy enough, and war and the battlefield are nightmares to them. As their pillar of support, nobody wants to see you get involved in dangerous situations because of them.
Cocolia tried to persuade you a long time ago, but her persuasion was fruitless. Having been away from the battlefield for countless years, she is also unwilling to part with everyone in the orphanage. In addition to your physical problems, she did not stop you from doing what you've chosen. But the other children in the orphanage feel differently.]
[Give up what you're doing now and go back to the orphanage with everyone: A warm family has been formed, and it seems like a good choice to spend the rest of your time with everyone.]
[Stick to your own ideas: There are people you cherish in the orphanage, and you must save everyone no matter what!]
"Let me think..."
"System, I remember that my Houkai physique is innate, right?"
[Yes, the talent chosen by the host in the simulator is born with it.]
"Then there's no real choice. I definitely won't live to be 40. I won't live past 40. I don't want to wait until I'm 40 to have someone take the CD out of my head. I choose 2. I want to stick to my own ideas!"
