Chapter 63 What does death matter? The arrival of the Glorious Festival seemed to have allowed the residents of Yaoguang, who had been frightened and terrified for some time, to return to their previous happy lives. Every street was decorated with lights and almost all the shops closed early at noon. Families headed towards Ziguang Street, which was reopened today. According to Yaoguang's custom, they will celebrate the festival tonight in the place closest to the sun. The whole city was filled with laughter, as if the terror brought by the murderer had completely left this land. The murderer 626 Levi is also celebrating the festival. This festival made him feel a bit like the Lantern Festival in the real world. People would not stay at home, but would go out to the streets to celebrate together. There were people everywhere on both sides of the street, and many small vendors who were hoping to make a fortune today were shouting and hawking their wares. This lively atmosphere made Levi feel like he was back to reality. He felt a little emotional and homesick, but not yet to the point of being sad. After all, it was just a temporary bug in the game, and sooner or later he would be able to return with a large sum of compensation. Fengzi didn't know why, but after getting the two White Tower award tickets, she seemed to be preoccupied. She would either sit alone with her chin supported by one hand, staring blankly at one place, or look absent-minded and unhappy. While shopping, even though Levi saw a funny sunflower headpiece and bought it and put it directly on her head, it didn't bring much of a smile to her face.
Just like that, the sky gradually darkened, and only the stone on the top of the white tower still emitted a soft glow, illuminating the glare. When passing a secluded alley, Levi looked at the time and found that the admission time for the lottery ticket owners to enter the White Tower was almost up. He pulled Fengzi and walked towards Zi Guang Street while talking. "Let's go, we're going to have a big dinner tonight." However, Fengzi stood there motionless, and even though Li Wei pulled her forward, she refused to move. When Levi turned around curiously, he found that the girl's face was full of tears! The funny sunflower headpiece on her head made her crying face look even funnier. Anyway, Levi was amused. "Why are you crying for no reason?" Fengzi grabbed Levi's arm tightly. "No, 626! You can't go in! The person who gave us the lottery ticket must want to harm you! If you go in now, you will be trapped! I don't want anything to happen to you! Go away! I don't want you to help me anymore! Now that everyone is celebrating, you should escape quickly!" She looked at Levi with fear in her red eyes, took out a magnetic card with one hand, and stuffed the card into Levi's hand. "This is a card my father left for me as insurance. It allows you to ride inter-city trains without a name. Use it to escape! No one else will find out. You must stay alive and don't get caught by them! I don't want you to die! I really don't want you to die!" Levi looked at the black magnetic card stuffed in his hand, and at this time, information about the task reward popped up in his mind. [Mission Reward Obtained: Card Leaving the Sun] At this point, he had obtained both rewards for Feng Zi's mission, the physics skills, and the way to leave the city. Levi looked down at her and saw that even the disguise on her face had been torn apart by tears. She was looking at her own graceful demeanor, but she had no intention of just taking her things and leaving. He smiled helplessly, took out a handkerchief from his pocket and helped Fengzi wipe her face. "You have to finish what you have done. I have promised you that I will take the stone from the top of the tower away. I won't regret it halfway." Fengzi suddenly shook off Levi's hand holding the handkerchief, revealing a frightened and determined expression. She didn't dare to look directly into Levi's eyes again, but just spoke loudly in a crying voice.
"But I have been lying to you all along! I am a big liar! Dad didn't intend to keep you at home at that time! He never said you were my brother! He wanted to send you to the sun from the beginning, and use your scientific research results to rescue the workers! He never regarded you as a normal person!" "The reason why I said that at the beginning was just to get you to help me! In fact, I am no different from those people you killed! I am also a bad person! I can't speak! I don't know how to socialize! I love to take advantage of small opportunities! I am a freak! Since I met you, I have always called you by your patent number! I never asked you if you wanted a real name! I am so bad! There is no need for you to help people like me anymore! Go away! 626! Go away quickly while my mind is confused!" She cried and pushed Levi hard, trying desperately to push him away from her. But no matter how hard she tried, Levi just stood there motionless. He knew from the beginning that Fengzi must have lied about something. Just as she said herself, she was a loner, didn't know how to socialize, couldn't speak, and apart from scientific research, she was an idiot when it came to interacting with people! But Levi never cared about these things. He helped Fengzi not just out of pure desire to help, or because he was greedy for her beauty and wanted to seduce this stupid girl. He simply wanted to find the triggering plot for the main quest from the key NPC he met at the beginning of the game. Both of them are just using each other and hiding something, so there is no need for either of them to say that they are sorry for lying to the other. But now, maybe Fengzi has feelings for him, or maybe her conscience can no longer bear it. She knew that if Levi entered the White Tower, he would be dead! So she confessed everything, preferring to let Levi be disappointed in her and hate her, rather than letting Levi escape and live! But Levi had no intention of leaving. In his opinion, Fengzi's mission was just a simple stepping stone. Although the rewards for the two missions were important, they had nothing to do with the real main storyline of this world. That white tower is the key, or rather, the stone on the top of the tower is the key! So no matter what, Levi had to enter the tower. As for whether he lives or dies, can he, a player, be afraid of death? Moreover, he had originally planned that he would die, but he was not sure how he would die. "Don't be so narcissistic and take yourself so seriously." Levi pressed Fengzi's hand down, forcibly wiped her face clean, then took out various cosmetics he had always prepared and carefully re-applied makeup on her. "I want to go to the White Tower, not for you. I want to enter that tower myself. If you really want to understand and want to respect me, then support my own choice. I am not helping you, but our goals are the same. Do you understand?" Fengzi sniffed, she looked up at Levi and stared into his eyes. "Is this what you mean?" "Realer than real gold." "But you will die!" "What does death matter?" Levi smiled indifferently. His indifference stunned Feng Zi. She had read many books about the old century, and those stories about sacrificing one's life for justice made her yearn for them, but she had no concrete concept of them. In this society that is sinking from the ground and lingering underground, morality and ethics have long been abandoned by human beings. The society has completely sunk into the world of fame and fortune where only interests are concerned! But at this moment, Levi's temperament really attracted her. Fengzi was silent for a long time. She kept looking at Levi's face, as if she wanted to imprint those facial features deeply in her mind. Finally, she gathered her emotions and took a deep breath. "Okay! Then, let's go in!"
