How to get through this?

Li Andy took a deep breath and calmed himself.

He discovered that the space covered by his shadow was continuous.

So he decided to walk forward, stepping on his shadow.

As he advanced, the surrounding scenery constantly changed.

Various bizarre scenes formed on both sides of the shadow.

A lonely corridor... an empty theater stage... a cramped room filled with black shadows...

These scenes were not terrifying, but the sense of incongruity filled people with unease.

Like scene models that weren't completely deleted, like a wandering and lost dream.

Everything, everything, was full of unreality.

The distance to Youxi was constantly shortening, but that annoying babble was becoming increasingly noisy.

So noisy....

It's really too noisy....

Li Andy felt like his head was about to split open!

That damned sound was not received through the ears, but echoed directly in his mind!

His thinking became more and more chaotic, and all sorts of absurd and bizarre ideas kept popping up, as if countless people were talking in his head.

'Youxi, Sophia, and Youxi, plus me, that's four people. What can four people do?'

'How boring, what am I doing? Saving people? Why save people?'

'What is the truth of this world? Who am I? Where am I?'

'It's fake, everything is fake! Existence itself is meaningless!'

'Oh, heavens.... She has a pair of dainty feet, and I have a nimble mouth. How could there be such a coincidence in this world?'

'No! I want the Great Thunderclap Temple! The Great Thunderclap Temple is the true orthodoxy!'

'Ahhh... I don't want to go to work...'

'Damn it, the holiday is over, and I haven't finished my homework yet!'

"Shut up! It's too noisy!!!"

Li Andy heavily hammered his own head.

With a "buzz--", the world became quiet....

But when he looked up, he was stunned in place—because there were countless people identical to him in front of him, all raising their heads at the same time.

"What is this guy doing? Why is he hitting himself?"

"Wow! Why do you all look exactly like me?! Who are you guys?"

"You are you, I am me, he is him, and Dog Eight is Dog Eight."

"Hey, hey, what's your xp? I'm from the Warden faction."

"Heretic! The Great Thunderclap Temple is the true orthodoxy!"

"What are you guys talking about? I don't understand. I'm a farmer, I like to grow peaches."

"Vulgar, vulgar... Elegance is me..."

The noise resumed again, and became even more chaotic. Some people even started fighting because of different beliefs.

Li Andy stood there blankly, feeling out of place.

Who... am I?

Am I really Li Andy?

Confusion spread in his heart, occupying all other thoughts.

It seemed that he himself was just a nerve ending that controlled confusion.

"So... I am not me.... I am just.... one of them..."

He slowly squatted down, as if his ego had been extracted, staring blankly at his shadow.

Shadow...

Only I have a shadow?

Li Andy suddenly woke up.

Not just the shadow, only he has the ring!

Li Andy pinched himself hard, and when he opened his eyes again, the scene in front of him changed drastically, turning into Youxi's contorted face.

And he himself, without knowing when, had grabbed the other party's small feet and was about to pull her back.

When?

No, don't overthink it!

Li Andy desperately focused his attention and forcefully pulled the girl into his arms.

"Wake up, Xiaoliu!"

"No... Youxi, please wake up!"

It seemed that he called out the right name. The power that bound the girl fell away, and he successfully pulled her into his arms.

But this pull seemed to directly shatter the entire world.

A large amount of seawater poured in, directly submerging him.

Li Andy choked on a few mouthfuls of bitter seawater and found that he couldn't breathe at all.

The rules that Sophia had tampered with had actually failed! Was the quality that unreliable?!

"Glug, glug..."

Just as he was struggling desperately, the girl in his arms opened her eyes.

Immediately afterwards, the girl, in the weightless environment, hugged his neck and poured softness and air into his mouth.

Li Andy instinctively sucked in large gulps, so that the movement became a bit rough.

Compared to Sophia's lung capacity output, Youxi's was obviously smaller and more awkward...

Fortunately, the girl did not resist because of this, but instead gave birth to some kind of strange emotion, and catered to him more docilely.

The 【Underwater Breathing】 rule was also gradually overwritten successfully.

Moreover, compared to Sophia's "code", Youxi's seemed to be more advanced.

【Underwater Breathing】 has become 【No Need to Breathe】.

Air entering the lungs is just a feeling, and in reality, no bubbles are generated at all.

Even the icy touch of the seawater, Li Andy gradually couldn't feel it anymore, his whole person seemed to transcend the world by a dimension.

It can be seen that the degree of cognitive awareness of the mind source is different, and the results of the tampering are also different.

If game data were used to represent it, Youxi's intelligence and mental strength were obviously several levels higher than Sophia's.

"Huff...."

After being reborn, Li Andy gently pushed Youxi away.

There was not much expression on the girl's face, the movement of her lips still remained slightly open, the remaining redness on her cheeks was just right, and her pupils reflected the corner of his mouth.

Overall, she looked like a green little fruit eager to ripen.

"Awake?" Li Andy asked.

"Yes."

"Do you know who you are?"

"Yes."

"Yes what? Say your specific name."

"..... Youxi Harveys."

Li Andy finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked around.

At this time, the space of the manor was no longer dislocated, but the trend of collapse could not be reversed.

"Brother!"

Sophia, pulling Youxi, followed a red carpet and found Li Andy.

"Brother, look outside!"

Li Andy followed her gaze and looked towards the largest crack.

Outside, mountains surrounded them.

Obviously, while he was saving people, those sea monsters were not idle either.

They took this opportunity to regroup and moved the manor's location to the mountain altar.

After the manor completely collapsed, Li Andy and the four of them were completely surrounded in the middle.

Three giant pillars covered in light eggs were close at hand!

"IA! IA! SHAGGORNYTH!!"

The group of monsters fanatically worshiped, and the piercing sound echoed around the mountains.

They wanted to seal them all into the eggs in one go!

"Make them shut up!"

Li Andy shouted.

Youxi did not hesitate and immediately extinguished the sound.

However, the change did not stop, and the transparency continued.

"Destroy these pillars!"

Youxi frowned, her expression suddenly changing:

"Can't... can't do it.... It seems... it's not fictional!"

Not fictional?

Li Andy was stunned. He suddenly realized that the monsters' babbling was not some 【spell】 with power, but simply... a call.

Rumble--

The three pillars woke up, opening countless strange eyes.

The pupils of those eyes were one sleeping Youxi after another.
