In the years since Li Xiao came to Arkworld, the three obelisks on the island have never changed at all - and now, the green obelisk that should have been emitting green light has been extinguished?!
Looking northwest again, the blue obelisk hanging on the top of Tianhui Mountain in the northwest of the Ark has now become a huge piece of metal without any light!
The red obelisk is in the southwest of Ark Island. It is too far away from here. Although it cannot be seen, it is estimated that the situation is similar to these two.
What happened to this Ark system?
Li Xiao's mood is very complicated now - worry, surprise, doubt, and even a little excitement!
On the one hand, he was worried that there was something wrong with the Ark system, and that he would lose the support of the system from now on - without the inventory, without the blueprints, then he, as a player, would be completely unworthy of his name and become an "ordinary person"!
Want a weapon? Make it yourself with your bare hands...
Want to tame creatures? Feed them yourself and cultivate feelings little by little...
By that time, the two players may not be able to move even an inch on the island!
On the other hand, he also had some unrealistic ideas about the system crash.
For example, since there is a loophole in the system, can it be found?
The backhand control system is too whimsical, but the system only needs to persuade him and Zhou Qing to return to Earth!
Is this possible?
Or maybe, today is the time for them to go home?
…
Thinking wildly, the volcanic crater was already in front of him. He landed back in the yard, and Li Xiao stood on a high place and looked down——
There is no abnormality in the domesticated creatures, and the beeping Tyrannosaurus rex alarm clock has no change.
Go back to the room and see - the workbench can no longer be used, and the machine tools can no longer be used. Of course, this refers to using drawings to make items. If the players do it themselves, there will be no problem...
Otherwise, there is no problem with the generator, and there is no problem with the road appliances at home.
"In other words, everything about the system is useless?" Li Xiao's brows were squeezed together, "But that's the problem. If the player loses the system, it will be completely useless..."
The Ark system is restarting, the time is unknown, and it is even unknown whether it can be restarted...
Nothing major happened at home, but it was not an option for Li Xiao, Zhou Qing and others to just wait. After some discussion, the two finally decided to go out and find the cause of the problem with the Ark system.
Even if you can't find the reason, you can just find the new player...
However, there was a problem with the system because of him, and Li Xiao didn't know whether this player had come to Ark World or not.
During this period, Li Xiao did not dare to separate from Zhou Qing at all. If the system convulsions affected the two of them, at least they would still take care of each other...
Even though the system calls them "players", the two of them have almost no treatment as players. Instead, they are more like two white mice, being fiddled with by a big hand covering their heads.
…
Li Xiao's first stop was the obelisk tower that had lost its light.
The two of them rode the Ancient God Winged Dragon together and quickly flew to the foot of the green obelisk tower. They crossed the stone bridge, climbed onto the metal platform and looked forward. They saw that the entire sacrificial platform under the obelisk tower seemed to have lost power.
, turned into energyless metal.
The huge obelisk tower still hangs quietly in the sky. From this, it can be seen that there is only a small problem with the Ark system and it has not yet reached the point of collapse.
Otherwise, if this obelisk tower hanging high in the sky loses the support of unknown energy, it will be tragic if it falls - not only the sacrificial platform below, but also the surrounding five or six kilometers will become a ruin...
…
While he was talking, the obelisk tower suddenly shook violently, and then a low roar came from it!
"Go ahead, my crow's mouth is really going to fall off, right?!"
Li Xiao subconsciously looked up, but the scene in front of him was completely different from what he imagined.
I saw a green beam of light slowly descending from a very high place in the sky. Because the water tank thick beam of light was too long, it looked more like a straight thin line from a distance.
This "thin line" penetrates from the top of the obelisk tower and extends to the sacrificial platform below. Wherever the thin line passes, the dim obelisk tower is lit up section by section!
However, with the effort of breathing, the light beam stabilized, and the obelisk tower returned to its original appearance.
The implants on their arms also showed light again, and the light screen menu automatically popped up and then retracted.
Li Xiao and Zhou Qing looked at each other...is this the system restarting?
I opened the menu and checked, but no problems were found. The domestication column, inventory column, production column... were the same as before the crash. Although there was no system prompt, looking at this, the Ark system was obviously fine.
Calculating the time, it has been almost three hours since they received the system prompt in the cave.
What are you doing?
Is this okay?
What about the newcomers? What’s the reason for the crash?
"Wait a minute, where are my white hands?" Li Xiao looked at the menu and suddenly found something unusual - the pure white hands that were originally in his production column were nowhere to be seen!
Just click on the production of a stone arrow, and the production bar will start working... But the difference is that this time there is no more blank hands, and no detailed process display!
After a few seconds, the prepared arrows appeared in the inventory, and the production bar worked normally...
"What's going on here?" Li Xiao scratched his head.
At this moment, the only difference between his menu and Zhou Qing's menu disappeared... From this point of view, this is the player's normal menu, and the white hand is just an anomaly.
What is Baishou? Why does it appear in Li Xiao's menu to help him make items?
Li Xiao has never studied Baishou once. Unfortunately, apart from simple wisdom, that guy seems to have nothing special. He has long regarded him as an artificial intelligence that specializes in making tools.
Shouldn't it be part of the system too? Why is it disappearing?
There are all kinds of doubts, but the two players have nowhere to find answers. As a white rat raised in a box, it is really difficult to find out why they appear here.
"Mad! The system has crashed and restarted, and we don't understand anything..." An angry Li Xiao slapped his head hard.
Thinking about it carefully, they are really useless. From the moment they traveled to the Ark World, it seemed that the two of them were constantly working hard, but if something goes wrong with the system, the two of them would be instantly knocked back to their original shape and become two people named Tiantian.
The weak ones who don’t deserve it.
No matter how hard you struggle, you can't escape the "box" of Arkworld!
Crazy Li Xiao collapsed on the ground, covering his head and getting entangled - he was struggling with the meaning of all this, the meaning of working hard for so many years!
After a system crash and restarting, he saw all his shortcomings and many problems.
Could it be said that years of hard work are ultimately in vain? No matter how strong you become, in the eyes of the Ark system and the person behind the scenes, you are just an ant that can be easily wiped out?
For the first time, this was the first time that he was confused about the direction of his efforts... His eyes were filled with blood, and the hand holding his hair rubbed it hard, and for a while he got into the horns...
A pair of slender hands gently hugged his face. Li Xiao looked up and found that Zhou Yibu had taken over the body at some point and stood in front of him.
She is usually quirky, but she looks calm at this moment. She takes off her helmet and has long hair, and the gentleness and warmth between her eyebrows is like water...
She didn't say anything, she just slowly leaned into Li Xiao's arms, holding Li Xiao's palm and playing with his fingers playfully.
It was like winter snowflakes meeting the scorching sun, but in an instant, the gloom in Li Xiao's heart melted...
Zhou Yi, this girl, always has a unique magical power that leads people out of the darkness... It seems that as long as you see her, all the darkness will recede.
There was no comfort or guidance, just leaning quietly in his arms, but it seemed to give Li Xiao a great boost.
Li Xiao raised his head and looked around, seeing gorgeous scenery everywhere. Li Xiao took a deep breath...
The obsession of returning to Earth has been bothering him. It seems that he has not calmed down and enjoyed this moment of tranquility for a long time...
