Gu Wuji stood before the table, his heart filled with complex emotions. He hadn’t expected to actually have a past life, and to have been a player himself, even participating in the final instance.
But the ending of that game was clearly not what he wanted, leading to this situation.
Thinking about it, were the events he encountered in this life also things he had foreseen in his past life?
“This notebook must be an item, right? What information did I want to leave behind in my past life? Can it really change the outcome of this final instance?” Gu Wuji, filled with questions, reached out and flipped to the first page of the notebook.
The contents of the notebook were similar to a diary, even starting from when Gu Wuji first became a player in his past life. Logically, such a notebook couldn’t possibly be completed, but if it was an item, it would be normal.
Just as he read the first word, the scenery around Gu Wuji changed. He looked around in astonishment, finding himself directly transported to the scene described in the diary.
“This notebook actually has such power…”
However, the diary entries were fragmented, and Gu Wuji’s understanding was incomplete. Even his memories of his past life were mostly forgotten.
What he saw was that in his previous life, after becoming a player, his initial strength wasn’t great, but thanks to his optimistic spirit and good luck, he managed to clear many dungeons and make friends.
His closest friend in his past life was a teammate. The teammate’s appearance was blurry and indistinct, but Gu Wuji could sense that they were very close.
The two often entered dungeons together, and were lucky enough to survive and even improve their strength. They also shared the same values, forming a team together and recruiting many new players, dedicated to helping more people safely clear dungeons.
This organization became a fairly large one in the game, attracting many people because of Gu Wuji’s reputation, and everything seemed to be developing in a positive direction.
But the situation soon changed. In one dungeon, the Gu Wuji from his past life got entangled with the vengeful ghost boss, but not in a good way; it was probably a matter of enmity.
Gu Wuji: “…” This is too familiar. Could it be that his ability to provoke vengeful ghost bosses is something he possessed from a past life?!
Moreover, that vengeful ghost boss was quite extraordinary, a terrifyingly powerful being. After becoming entangled with Gu Wuji, he encountered this boss in every dungeon run, often facing near-death experiences.
Later, through repeated clashes, Gu Wuji eventually managed to influence the vengeful ghost boss. Although the boss didn’t say anything, it spared Gu Wuji and other players’ lives multiple times.
What followed was a series of melodramatic, Romeo and Juliet-like events.
Gu Wuji also felt that this vengeful ghost boss was an extremely intimate presence in his mind. Although he didn’t want to admit it, he might have a secret relationship with that vengeful ghost boss.
“Maybe my sexual orientation was gay from my past life,” Gu Wuji finally gave up struggling. “Or maybe it’s ghost-sexuality… all I encounter are ghosts!”
….
Gu Wuji quickly scanned the notebook’s contents. While it didn’t contain much detail, it stirred up many memories for him, as if he were reliving forgotten events.
However, the notebook was also missing a lot of information, seemingly damaged during the world’s merging process, which made Gu Wuji feel uneasy, as he couldn’t recall much at once!
Soon, the notebook reached the events of the final instance.
In that world, the player atmosphere was harmonious; everyone worked hard to ensure the survival of more people, displaying a very positive and optimistic spirit. High-level players were also generous, helping others to the best of their ability.
All of this was thanks to Gu Wuji’s friend from his previous life. After all, Gu Wuji’s personality wasn’t significantly different in his past and present lives; he couldn’t have built such a large organization on his own.
The ten participating players were also chosen through everyone’s collective efforts.
At this point, the notebook was missing too much information, so much so that Gu Wuji had only just finished reading the rules and the beginning of the instance when everything plunged into darkness.
“So this is how it’s going to unfold? They cut off all information at the crucial moment.” Gu Wuji sighed. He had actually anticipated this development! After all, revealing the final dungeon’s plot so easily seemed too much.
Then, a scene appeared before Gu Wuji’s eyes.
A dark, reddish sky appeared before him. He was clearly in the real world, but it was filled with ruins and the corpses of his companions. He himself was covered in blood.
“What on earth is going on?” Gu Wuji hadn’t expected the notebook to jump to so much content; it had gone straight to the world’s destruction!
Even knowing the situation in his past life would be like this, Gu Wuji was still shocked by the apocalyptic scene around him. He absolutely didn’t want such a scene to happen again in this real world.
Not far away, two people seemed to be confronting each other, or rather, one being unilaterally tortured by the other.
One, with a blurred face, was clearly Gu Wuji’s friend; the other’s face was also unclear, but he could feel an astonishing pressure emanating from him. And the surrounding black mist… He was none other than the vengeful ghost boss with whom Gu Wuji had a complicated and dramatic past.
Upon seeing Gu Wuji, the ghost boss immediately tossed the man aside.
His blood-soaked friend collapsed in front of Gu Wuji, struggling to grab Gu Wuji’s sleeve as he rushed over and knelt down. Blood spilled from his mouth, but he still managed to say with difficulty, “It’s all that vengeful ghost’s fault! He lied to you!”
“He was never a good person from the beginning. Everything he did before was deliberately to lower our guard… Now, he doesn’t need to pretend anymore, so he’s shown his true colors.”
“You must, you absolutely must change all of this—”
