Bai Yang and Ji Yuan finally escaped the simulated world and returned to reality. Because of both of their bodies condition, they stayed in the hospital for two days. Before that, Bai Yang asked the technical team to enter the main system and pause the world destroying program.

Ji Yuan very much approved of that.

Since Bai Yang and Ji Yuan were both out of the world, there were no more real humans inside. So the technical team could operate without obstacles, but they were still too late.

On the third day, Ji Yuan was pushing Bai Yang around the research center's garden when they heard the news that the technical team had successfully entered the main system. They were ecstatic, but then the manager said, "Although they've entered the main system, it was still too late. The destruction program has already started."

"How?" Bai Yang stood up from the wheelchair, "I remember it was only the fifth when I left, the countdown was for thirty-three days, so there should still be eighteen days, so how......"

"Little Bai." Ji Yuan also wore a hospital gown, he put both hands on his shoulders gently. "You've forgotten, time in that world passes differently than that in the real world. I was inside for many years, but only two months had passed in the real world."

Bai Yang suddenly realized he forgot about that.

Time in the simulated world passes differently than that in the real world, perhaps thirty-three days in there would only be two hours here.

But......

He thought about many people's faces, Zhou Ying, Xiao Ling, Zhong Shuo, Hua Feihua...... To him, all of these people were real, living people, they're his friends. He didn't want them to leave.

Hua Feihua had already passed, but Zhou Ying, Xiao Ling, and Zhong Shuo were still alive. If they died just like this without a sound......

Bai Yang buried his face in his hands, he was really upset.

"Little Bai......" Ji Yuan patted his head gently.

Bai Yang suddenly moved his hands and said, "That's not right!"

"What's not right?" Ji Yuan asked.

Bai Yang said, "Back then Xiao Ling left with me, she should still be alive."

"Xiao Ling?"

Bai Yang explained, "The assistant that accompanied me after I entered, she's an A.I."

Ji Yuan nodded, "Understood."

Bai Yang said, "Back then she cleared the entire database, and downloaded the Demon King...... No, your data, trying to bring you back with us. She should've left with me."

Ji Yuan raised an eyebrow in shock, "What do you mean?"

Bai Yang explained his and Xiao Ling's plan.

Ji Yuan had seen Bai Yang's memories as he was returning to reality. Thinking back to that, he said, "So it went like that......"

The technical team's manager cut them off, "That's impossible."

Bai Yang asked nervously, "What's impossible?"

The manager said, "President Ji was always a human, with an escape condition set up. In other words, he would automatically leave the world after completing his task. He didn't need Xiao Ling to obtain his data...... No, she couldn't have obtained it in the first place. Because President Ji is human, not data."
