Chapter 554 The problem lies with him.
The fish taking the bait slightly interrupted the previous conversation, but Sheng Hanyu didn't rush to ask further questions. Instead, she waited for Ye Sanqing to finish his thoughts.
Only after he caught a fish did Ye Sanqing say, "I feel much less pressure."
"How to say?"
Although she already had a guess in her mind, Sheng Hanyu still hoped to hear Ye Sanqing say it in person.
"Well, all I can do is avoid choosing them. In extreme cases, I can physically eliminate them. But the current world setting isn't suitable, right?"
Sheng Hanyu nodded.
In a post-apocalyptic or war-torn world, physical annihilation would obviously be the easiest solution.
"However, to prevent the game from restarting, we might not only have to eliminate them, but also protect them."
Looking at the still water, Ye Sanqing said, "I can protect a country or a star system, but when it comes to an individual... even for me, it would be difficult."
Sheng Hanyu was startled, but he didn't show it.
So, her previous statement, "I will protect you," was actually a very deliberate decision?
"Knowing that their disappearance doesn't necessarily mean reopening, although there's a major prerequisite that I have to make a choice first, but ultimately it still..."
"Feeling much more relaxed?"
Sheng Hanyu finished her sentence for her, and Ye Sanqing nodded.
The act of protection differs in its macro and micro objectives.
She couldn't be in two places at once, so she couldn't possibly keep an eye on each and every one of them.
The player triggered the death ending, and restarting is fine, but the problem is that she is not the player.
As for choosing a target... she wouldn't just pick one randomly in order to gain more freedom.
She shared this idea, then added, "But I think they've also gotten entangled with Ye Wanyin, especially Lu Wangshen, so... there's a higher chance they won't get into trouble. Even if it looks dangerous, nothing will really happen to them."
"I almost forgot to consider her existence. But speaking of her, there's a major problem: what if something happens to Lu Wangqian?"
Sheng Hanyu asked the question.
Although he didn't think the trap they had prepared would actually cause Lu Wangqian much physical harm—at most, it would only negatively impact his financial situation—given the local circumstances...
Even setting aside man-made disasters, being bitten by a mosquito carrying some kind of virus is enough to cause him suffering.
"He's no longer considered part of my life after he married Ye Wanyin, right?" Ye Sanqing said helplessly. "I can't possibly write a story where the protagonist can still be won over after a divorce, can I? That would be a bit too much for the author. Of course, I don't mean to discriminate against divorced people, I just discriminate against Lu Wangqian."
"It's hard to say... but hopefully not, the situation is already quite complicated..."
Sheng Hanyu actually thought about it in that direction.
It's highly likely that it will happen, after all, it seems to have been mentioned before, and there's even a happy ending for multiple characters... It's clear that the game's creator has some rather unique perspectives.
But then again, it's just a game, so it's normal for things to happen that wouldn't happen in real life...
If this character weren't Lu Wangqian, it wouldn't be a big problem, but the problem lies in the fact that the character himself is problematic...
They've now used Ye Wanyin to trap him. It wasn't something they planned, but that's how it turned out.
What if it can't be blocked?
I have no idea what will happen that day, and I absolutely don't want to see it.
"Let's leave him be for now. After all, he's in Africa, so any impact he might cause will only delay things. I wonder how his mining in Africa is going."
Ye Sanqing didn't pay much attention to this matter. At this time, the only information he had was Lu Wangqian's Weibo post about the beautiful scenery after he went to Africa.
Ye Yifan certainly wouldn't pay direct attention either, but would gather information about Lu Wang's potential performance in the local area through other channels, and the feedback wouldn't be so quick.
"I hope he doesn't get bitten by mosquitoes... otherwise we might soon have to decide whether to restart it."
"Mosquitoes are really dangerous!" Ye Sanqing exclaimed. "When I was researching the situation before, I discovered that not every country in this world is peaceful."
"Yes... we are already lucky to be born here."
Sheng Hanyu simply sighed.
Let's not talk about rebirth and time travel... If he had to face war immediately after being born, Ye Sanqing might not have cared, but he might not have been so lucky to survive.
"That's true, and there's such a plentiful amount of food."
Ye Sanqing held up a fish he had just caught and said.
This fish was even bigger than the previous one, almost as long as my forearm, and it was quite lively, constantly wriggling and trying to escape back into the water.
Sheng Hanyu immediately opened the tank containing the fish, and the two of them worked together to throw it in.
"I've thought of something else. Maybe it's because they both have entanglements with Ye Wanyin that in situations where they're both present... quantum entanglement becomes stronger? Leading to a state that the system can't determine?"
Ye Sanqing thought about the possible operating principles of the game system and then said.
"Not only that, they're all entangled with the key figure Fu Sizhou. In other words, the system's assessment of them is quite detached from romantic relationships. Was the experiment on Cheng Yanye successful?"
Ye Sanqing shook his head. "It can't be considered a complete success. Although his situation has stabilized, he still adheres to the principle of getting entangled with Ye Wanyin. As for other aspects, we have considered and let him try them, such as increasing his influence."
"He's been getting a lot of attention lately because of Lu Wangshen... Oh, Lu Wangshen is really scary, what a lucky break, right? Now he's even connected with Cheng Yanye."
Sheng Hanyu suddenly realized that everything Lu Wangshen was doing could be summarized in one sentence: he tried to establish some kind of relationship with key figures.
Whether it's Ye Wanyin, Cheng Yanye, Lu Mingye, Fu Sizhou, Ye Yifan, or even Ye Sanqing himself... he has indeed increased his own importance.
“That’s just his nature. Even if he doesn’t know this is a game world… I think we absolutely can’t let him know, otherwise he’ll definitely cause trouble… He only associates with people he considers useful.”
Ye Sanqing had to admit this as well; was Lu Wangshen simply a man of strong intuition or a cunning strategist...?
They all seem to fit the bill.
"So, this so-called quantum entanglement... well, there's no accurate term to describe this situation, so let's just call it that."
As Ye Sanqing pondered, he said, "Once a character forms their own established network of relationships, can they break away from the main storyline, or rather, their emotional connection with me, and act independently? Isn't this also a way to change one's fate?"
