Minecraft: I Am The Demon King

Chapter 622 - 622: The Origin of the System!!

The way to save Xu Yuan that suddenly appeared in the real HIM's mind naturally also came from the Inner World.As an outsider, and one who had been forcibly dragged into this world, Xu Yuan's soul was currently in an extremely unstable state.

If he wanted to survive in this world, he had to establish a connection with it.

And the way to establish a connection with this world was actually very simple. Xu Yuan only needed to form a connection with a living being from this world.

Although the real HIM could not completely be considered a native lifeform of this world, he had, after all, been born in this world. So in a sense, he could also be regarded as a part of this world.

Under normal circumstances, Xu Yuan would only need to come into contact with the real HIM to survive in this world.

But unfortunately, at this moment, the real HIM had already lost all connection with this world.

Ever since the Ender Queen and the others lost their memories and fell into slumber, no one in this world remembered the real HIM anymore.

He should have disappeared by then, but Notch's power had continued supporting him and maintaining his existence.

At this moment, he too was an existence completely unrelated to this world. Even if he had already formed a connection with Xu Yuan, it would be useless.

The only way to save Xu Yuan now was to send him to that newly established world where players had already settled.

Even though the real HIM was unwilling and desperately wanted to resist everything that the Inner World had forcibly planned out for him and Xu Yuan, he knew very well that he was powerless.

He did not want to hand both his and Xu Yuan's fate over to the Inner World, but he had neither the ability nor the leverage to resist.

If he did not follow the Inner World's arrangements, Xu Yuan would completely disappear before his eyes, so he could only accept it.

Since he could not change the established facts and lacked the power to resist fate's arrangements, the only thing the real HIM could do was do everything he could to pave the road ahead for Xu Yuan.

Carrying Xu Yuan's soul, he arrived in that unfamiliar new world that was full of life and vitality but had nothing to do with him.

The real HIM did not have the ability to create a physical body, so he had no choice but to use one of his avatars as a vessel for Xu Yuan's soul.

After carefully placing Xu Yuan's soul into the avatar, he bestowed a portion of his power upon Xu Yuan.

He named this power the "System." In fact, this term was something he had come across while learning about Xu Yuan.

He knew Xu Yuan liked reading novels, and the protagonists in those novels often obtained a powerful system.

Not only did the system possess endless power, but it also cleared the path ahead and protected the protagonist along the way.

Because of this, the real HIM decided to borrow this concept. He also adopted the advancement model where one could only obtain corresponding power after completing the various tasks assigned by the system.

On one hand, it was a setting Xu Yuan had once been very familiar with, making it easier for him to accept.

On the other hand, he sincerely hoped this power could be like those in the novels, protecting Xu Yuan on his life's journey and allowing him to move forward smoothly.

After doing all this, he did not leave immediately. Instead, he chose to hide in an inconspicuous corner, quietly watching over Xu Yuan and clearing away the mindless monsters that spawned nearby.

Time passed little by little, and night quietly fell.

Xu Yuan's body trembled slightly, then he slowly opened his eyes.

At first, his gaze was somewhat confused, but it quickly became clear again.

When Xu Yuan saw the unfamiliar surroundings, he did not panic. Instead, he quickly accepted the fact that he had transmigrated.

He calmly observed the situation around him and skillfully killed several mindless zombies that approached him.

Seeing Xu Yuan integrate into this world so smoothly, the real HIM finally felt completely at ease.

He quietly left that somewhat unfamiliar new world and returned once more to the region filled with lines.

Although he had followed the Inner World's rules and allowed Xu Yuan to come to this new world, he had not compromised.

He was determined to find a way to send Xu Yuan back to his original world.

After all, Xu Yuan had not come to this world of his own will. The real HIM felt that he had a responsibility to find a way back for him.

As for whether Xu Yuan would be willing to walk that path, only he himself could decide.

———

At this point, it was as if time had suddenly been accelerated, and everything became fast-paced.

Like a young seedling growing vigorously in spring, Xu Yuan continuously absorbed knowledge and experience, working hard to make himself stronger.

More and more people gathered around him. Increasing numbers of people were drawn by his charm and strength and were willing to move forward alongside him.

In sharp contrast to Xu Yuan's lively surroundings was the real HIM.

He was still alone, walking through the boundless void in solitude. His figure looked so small in that vast emptiness, yet his heart was fulfilled and strong.

At that time, although Xu Yuan and the real HIM were in different environments, both had clear goals of their own and worked tirelessly toward them.

The real HIM originally thought such peaceful and quiet days would continue forever.

But what he never expected was that, in that long-silent void, those two existences that had remained dormant all this time actually began to stir and gradually became active.

At the same time, the real HIM received a piece of news that put him in a dilemma, killing could grant power.

At first, the amount of power the real HIM gave Xu Yuan was not much, only about one-fifth of his own power.

Moreover, even that one-fifth could not be obtained easily. Xu Yuan had to complete all of the System's requirements before he could acquire that power.

However, as Xu Yuan continued to grow, the real HIM discovered that the power Xu Yuan displayed had already far exceeded his expectations.

After conducting many investigations, the real HIM finally discovered the shocking truth.

In this world, whether conscious or unconscious, all life was a form of energy.

By absorbing this energy, one could obtain corresponding power, and so-called absorption meant killing.

During the process of carrying out System missions, Xu Yuan had killed quite a few unconscious lifeforms and players. This was the reason why Xu Yuan's power had exceeded expectations.

After learning of the unrest in the void and the fact that killing could grant power, a troublesome question appeared before the real HIM...

Should he interfere with Xu Yuan's choice?
