The once lush and thriving forest was now black and white, and the vibrant green color that symbolizes vitality had vanished. The colorful sea of flowers that should have been there had turned into a charred color.
The wind was unusually cold, and a thin layer of frost had formed on the withered tree branches.
In the center of the deep forest sat a clear lake reflecting the three crescent moons above. The moon’s white, gold, and red colors create a perfect equilateral triangle in the water.
A teleportation array quietly appeared beside the silent lake. Three people, two adults and a child, emerged from it one after another.
The lake in the center was guarded by a group of trees like a group of stars around the moon. The lake contained algae, but its color had faded from green to a dirty lime gray because the color had faded.
Bai Lixin looked up at the three moons which still had color, then lowered his head to admire the perfect equilateral triangle formed by their reflections in the lake. “If I’m not mistaken, this should be the place where the three moons meet. If you jump into this lake, you should be able to return to the real world.”
The blond child looked up at the moon and remarked, “Brother, even the moon is losing its color.”
Bai Lixin looked at the reflection in the water and saw that the colors of the three moons were rapidly fading away like a lunar eclipse.
In his mind, he heard the sound of the system’s prompt.
[Ding! Congratulations, player, on killing the intruder and completing the task successfully. You will leave this copy in five minutes.]
[The countdown starts now.]
Miu Miu tugged on Bai Lixin’s pants and asked, “Brother, how can we restore the world to normal?”
Bai Lixin gave Miu Miu a deep look and replied, “When the sun and moon are aligned, the world will restore its color.”
“You are the sun, Miu Miu. Your favorite flower is the sunflower, and your paintings always feature the sun. As long as you want it, this world can be restored to normal.”
Miu Miu asked, “But how do I do it?”
The system reminded that he had about four minutes and he frowned. “Yes, how do we do it? Miu Miu, if you were in a world without color, what would you do?’
Miu Miu pulled her hair and replied without hesitation, ‘If it were me, and I encountered a place without color in my painting, I would use crayons to color it in.”
She looked up at Bai Lixin, puzzled. “Are you asking me to use a color? But I don’t have one now; they were all eaten by the strange mother.”
Bai Lixin looked down at Miu Miu and noticed some color smudges on her fingertips. He asked with curiosity, “What’s with your fingertips? How did you get these colors?”
Miu Miu replied, ‘Oh, sometimes crayon crumbs fall off, so I use my fingers to pick them up and continue painting to avoid wasting them.”
The countdown in Bai Lixin’s mind had reached fifty seconds.
He looked up at the slightly blue, pale gold, and bright red colors above his head and suddenly had an unusual and bizarre idea.
Swallowing his saliva, Bai Lixin said, ‘Miu Miu, I remember the three primary colors are red, yellow, and blue. Although blue is not very obvious, if you look at the white moon, doesn’t it have a little blue? Can’t we at least mix a little color?’
Miu Miu looked up at the three colors in the sky, then looked back at Bai Lixin in shock. “Are you asking me use the moons to color? Can a carbon-based human even think of that?!”
Bai Lixin: “….”
In theory, he hasn’t been much of a carbon-based human for a long time.
But, don’t you think you’re going a bit too far?
“However, nothing is impossible if you can imagine it!”
“I’ll give it a try!”
Miu Miu’s green eyes were instantly filled with fighting spirit.
This was her world, where everything followed her heart.
Did the colors fade? No problem, she could just add more color.
Brother was right, the color palette was right there in the sky!
As long as she wanted to, there was nothing she couldn’t do. Imagination was the source of creation!
Miu Miu raised her hand to the moons in the sky and gently pinched them, picking out some red and yellow and mixed it until it made some green.
Then Miu Miu wiped her fingers and threw some green towards the forest. The forest, which had been fading, instantly regained its greenery and vitality.
Miu Miu’s eyes went wide and she exclaimed excitedly, “It really works! Big brother, you’re amazing!”
Bai Lixin: “…”
You were the most resistant, but you are the one enjoying it the most.
For a moment, he felt a bit redundant.
Miu Miu quickly made another mixture and threw a white with a light blue tinge into the sky, instantly brightening it up.
Next were the sea of flowers and white clouds. Miu Miu had a knack for coloring, and in the blink of an eye, this black-and-white world was restored with color under her brushstrokes.
And the three moons in the sky were almost used up.
The moons were almost merging together, and the color palette brought the three moons together.
So that’s what it meant to connect the sun and moon with a straight line?
Miu Miu then drew the sun and moon in the sky and finally painted a rainbow with the remaining color, which she casually threw to the horizon.
As the last bit of color was used up, the countdown in Bai Lixin’s mind also reached its final bell.
Dijia seemed to know that Bai Lixin was about to leave, but it was difficult to do anything with Miu Miu around.
He stared deeply into Bai Lixin’s eyes for a long time, then pulled out his magic wand and pointed it at the sky. In the next instant, tiny drops of rain fell from the sky.
Under the drizzle, the rainbow became more and more crystal clear, like silk tied to the wrist of the sky god.
The gentle raindrops fell on Bai Lixin’s cheeks and forehead. The rain was light, but it wet his clothes. The feeling of the raindrops was like a dense kiss, expressing their own affection.
Bai Lixin smiled and suddenly pulled Dijia’s collar where Miu Miu couldn’t see, kissing him fiercely before he could react.
The kiss was deep, and the meaning was strong.
Dijia clearly did not expect that Bai Lixin to do this and his expression was dumbfounded for a while. By the time he came back to his senses and wanted to turn back the tables, Miu Miu had already stopped and looked at him.
Miu Miu looked satisfied with her masterpiece, holding her drawing and looking towards Bai Li Xin, “Brother, it’s done. I have to go now.”
Bai Li Xin patted Miu Miu’s head, “Take care.”
Miu Miu asked, “Will I forget everything when I wake up?”
Bai Li Xin shook his head, “I’m not sure, but for most people, only a few fragments of what happens in dreams can be retained after waking up.”
Miu Miu lowered her eyes with some regret, “I really hope to have the chance to see you in reality, brother. At that time, you will see a strong queen in me.”
“Haha,” Bai Lixin was quite happy in his heart. He smiled at Miu Miu with satisfaction, “Even if we do meet in the future, you may not remember me. But if we are destined, I will see you again. Hurry up, it’s getting late.”
Miu Miu waved at Bai Li Xin reluctantly, “Goodbye, brother.”
Then she looked at Dijia, intending to thank him and say goodbye to this handsome and cool-looking older brother, who was a bit scary. However, he gave her a cold stare, and the words that were about to come out of her mouth were instantly swallowed back down her throat.
Dijia impatiently glanced at Miu Miu and directly used magic to push her down, “Go.”
Why are you dragging your feet? Hurry up and leave! Don’t disturb me and my wife’s last intimate time, okay?!
Before Miu Miu could react, she plunged into the lake.
In the next second, Bai Lixin was embraced by a pair of broad arms, and the man’s forceful kiss followed closely.
Just as the man was about to kiss Bai Li Xin, the countdown in Bai Lixin’s mind reached “0.”
The next second, his body suddenly disappeared from the man’s arms, and the man instantly found himself embracing thin air.
Dijia: “……”
I feel wronged.

In the live broadcast room.
[Wuuu, welcome back God Xin! The ending was too perfect, I thought God Xin was done for this time, but in the end, everything turned out great.]
[The antivirus system saved Miu Miu, I was really surprised, I thought it was just a cold antivirus tool.]
[Miu Miu is cute and sincere. That is the love between mother and child, and the pure love between child and mother. It probably fell in love with Miu Miu a long time ago, but didn’t realize it. I saw it when Miu Miu was screaming for help in the hands of the black monster, and the anti virus reacted unconsciously. It was also injured trying to break free from the ice.]
[Although it was still being stubborn until the end, I think Miu Miu understand. The atmosphere between the two was tacit. ]
[The tacit understanding was between God Xin and the big boss, okay? The ending rain shower was so romantic, and God Xin’s shirt-grabbing kiss was awesome, too seductive.]
[Here’s the problem, it seems like the big boss was left alone in the end.]
[… I sort of feel sorry for the big boss here. He ended up holding air.]
[What the fuck! Brothers and sisters, go check the rankings, the rankings have changed!]
[What’s up?]
[God Xin jumped directly from the 200th floor to the 380th floor!]
[??? Holy shit! Amazing!]
[The believers welcome God Xin’s return!]
——————–
On the 999th floor, a man slowly opened his eyes, rubbed his messy hair and walked to the bathroom where he directly poured ice water over himself.
The system’s voice rang out: [My Lord, your mood seems unstable, did you have a nightmare?]
The cold water fell over his face, and his long and thick lashes instantly stuck together. The intermittent water droplets covered the man’s restless gaze, and he said lightly, “Yes, I had a nightmare.”
The voice was colder than the ice water.
The system fearlessly continued to ask: [What did you dream about?]
Dijia: “Hehe, I dreamed that someone stole the duck in my mouth.”
System: [According to research, one thinks about what one sees during the day and dreams about it at night. You dreamt this because something has actually been taken away from you. Do you want me to help you get it back? By the way, do you remember who stole your duck?]
Dijia: “Good question, it was you.”
System: […???]
After two seconds of silence, the system changed the subject: [Research also shows that dreams are chaotic and unrealistic, and many are just wild fantasies. I think this dream of yours is one of them.]
Dijia: “…”

[Ding! Congratulations player, you have successfully cleared the [Time Cage: Eternal Diamond Mountain – Fairy Tale World] copy, and you have earned a total of 130,000 mall points and 1.1 million performance points.]
[Levels 1-100, every 1,000 performance points upgrade by one floor.]
[Levels 101-200, every 2,000 performance points upgrade by one floor.]
[Levels 201-300, every 5,000 performance points upgrade by one floor.]
[Levels 301-600, every 10,000 performance points upgrade by one floor]
[You were on the 240th floor before, congratulations on reaching the 380th floor! You’re amazing, your leveling speed has shocked the world!]
[Ding! Level up achievement unlocked, congratulations on returning to the game lobby after a long absence! Welcome back, champion, please enjoy the pleasure and fun that the game brings you!]
As a wave of dizziness and darkness swept over him, Bai Lixin felt himself sitting in something soft. He slowly opened his eyes and realized that the familiar room he was in had been replaced.
This time, the room had been upgraded to a large flat, and he was now sitting on the sofa in the hall.
The voice of the escape system rang out: [Master Bai Lixin, you now have a four-bedroom, two-living-room large flat with an area of 185 square meters. You have defeated 80% of the game players. When you reach a floor above 400, your living environment will undergo another qualitative leap!]
Bai Li Xin silently looked around at the simple yet luxurious décor and asked the question that had been on his mind for a long time: [System Sister, it seems like you’re more excited than I am every time I move to a new place. Is it possible that the personality you’re programmed with is that of a housing slave?]
The escape system smiled apologetically, [It’s mainly because it’s really satisfying to see you upgrade. Do you still remember your room when you first entered the game? It was only a 15-square-meter hive, but now you have a 185-square-meter large flat, and there are still multiple mall points in your account. You can decorate it however you want. This is the life that so many people dream of.]
Bai Lixin: [……]
After the appraisal, it really looks like a “housing slave”.
****Housing Slave refers to someone who is financially burdened by their mortgage or housing expenses, and feels like they are trapped or enslaved by their housing situation.
Bai Lixin: [You said that when I reach the 400th, I will have a qualitative leap. What kind of leap is it?]
Escape System: [Hehe, it’s not just a large flat anymore, but a two-story duplex. Once you reach above level 500, you can switch to a two-story detached villa. Once you reach level 600, you can switch to a luxury villa. But that’s in the future, let’s not get ahead of ourselves. The large flat is also good, with a living room decorated in the most popular and clean “cream” style, and each bedroom has its own separate bathroom…]
While listening to the Escape System’s chatter, Bai Lixin opened the system bar.
[How long has it been since I was trapped in the Time Cage?]
The Escape System immediately stopped its passionate introduction and checked: [Wait a moment… I found it. It’s been 987 days, almost a thousand days.]
987 days, almost three years. I wonder how Xia Chi is doing. But with Tan Yue protecting him, there shouldn’t be any problem. Did he leave the game?
What about Zhou Guang?
The private message window kept flashing with jumping images, and Bai Lixin’s consciousness moved slightly to open the private message area.
The next second, the avatars of a small number of friends kept bouncing in his private chat, with “99+” written behind each one.
Only new messages had sound reminders, while the notes just kept jumping. There had been no sound for private messages since he returned. So these messages were all sent before he came back.
The top one was Xia Chi’s avatar. Bai Lixin clicked on Xia Chi’s name, and several private chat messages scrolled down like a roller coaster.
Bai Lixin scrolled up on the blue screen in his mind for a long time before he finally reached the first message.
Xia Chi: [Brother! I believe you can come out, I’m waiting for you!]
Xia Chi: [Brother, when are you coming out?]
Xia Chi: [Brother, I’m still waiting for you.]
Xia Chi: [It’s another day waiting for Brother. Today I participated in an activity with the Fury Flame Guild in their training grounds. I seemed to have grasped some skills.]
.
.
.
Xia Chi: [Brother, I learned a new skill today.]
Xia Chi: [Brother, I reached the 230th level today. I’m about to catch up with you.]
Xia Chi: [Brother, I reached the 240th floor. I’m on the same level as you! Hahaha.]
Xia Chi: [Brother, I’m almost surpassing you. Why don’t you come out yet? You’re God Xin and you’re already behind me. Zhou Guang is also catching up. If you don’t come out soon, you’ll be left behind.]
