Chapter 594: Chapter 75: Reality Shifts, Chaos Begins
[Gu Jing has passed away.]
[He was the second loyal minister of four dynasties in your family, trusted by four emperors throughout his life. His contributions were more than enough to glorify the history, whether for the entire family or the whole world.]
[Achievement unlocked...]
[Achievement Points Awarded: 200,000!]
[....]
A series of notifications flashed before Gu Yi’s eyes at that moment.
Gu Yi didn’t look at these, he just silently watched Li Longji crying bitterly in the official residence, and sighed softly.
Even so, there was not much turmoil in his heart.
Gu Yi had witnessed too many farewells and had gradually adapted to it now.
Everything was for the family legacy.
As a descendant, all he needed to remember was this point.
Only in this way would he not dishonor the generations of predecessors.
Looking at his achievement points, which had already surpassed a million, various thoughts surged into his mind, leaving only one question after a moment.
——Should he take direct control?
In fact, Gu Yi had thought about this issue long ago, and now he was completely different from when he first entered the game.
Not to mention the growth in various abilities.
Just the achievement points alone were enough for him to take direct control three times, and not far from four, which was completely incomparable to when he just entered the game.
With the increasing number of family members and the overall influence of the Gu Clan.
Even if there were no people of great talent and bold vision in the family, the speed of gaining achievement points wasn’t slow.
But Gu Yi remained very cautious.
He now needed to consider whether direct control could bring enough benefits to the family.
Whether it’s the limitation of the correction force or the consumption of achievement points after taking direct control, all of these needed Gu Yi’s careful consideration.
The Gu Clan was already strong enough.
What they truly needed was not just embellishment; short-term prosperity would not help the Gu Clan much.
On the contrary——
As long as he changed history again, the restrictions on the family members would be greater.
"Li Longji, eh...."
Countless thoughts flashed through as Gu Yi’s gaze turned to Li Longji, and he immediately recalled Li Longji’s various deeds in the original history.
Although Li Longji was somewhat influenced by the education of the Gu Clan.
His personality had not significantly changed either, which might be related to his still young age, making it difficult for Gu Yi to judge how he would turn out in the future.
He could only use his original historical self as a reference.
For a moment, his gaze grew deeper.
If it develops as originally in history, with deliberate vigilance and relying on the current influence of the Gu Clan, Gu Yi had the confidence to stop all this.
Just in this instant of thought, Gu Yi immediately had an answer in his heart and suppressed the thought of taking direct control at once.
Li Longji was still very young.
Plus, considering the various situations in the Great Tang at the moment, no matter how he looked at it, Gu Yi could not find a reason to take direct control now.
He couldn’t afford to waste achievement points.
If the Gu Clan wanted eternal glory, there were still many challenges awaiting them, and Gu Yi had to seize every opportunity to take direct control properly.
Directly taking control now might potentially save a lot of trouble.
And it would surely lead to a resurgence in maritime trade.
But how would that help the Gu Clan?
Move them overseas directly?
That was impossible.
History hadn’t progressed to that point yet, and Kyushu was still far ahead of the rest of the world.
If the family members were to leave Kyushu suddenly and go overseas, leading a primitive life to open up a foundation, it would only cause the family to split.
This was something Gu Yi was unwilling to see.
Apart from that, the only thing left that could bring benefits to the Gu Clan was short-term gains.
This would be harmful and without benefit to the Gu Clan!
The consumption of achievement points is irreversible, and in the future, the Gu Clan would still have many difficulties to face. Once the Gu Clan set foot on this path intertwined with the entire Kyushu, the risks would be deadly enough!
Gu Yi had to exercise restraint!
With such thoughts, Gu Yi instantly integrated the "Luoshu Harmonizing Device" into the body of Gu Jing’s eldest son.
Then he immediately thought silently in his heart and uttered the words "exit game".
In the next instant, the various scenes before his eyes shattered like a broken mirror, and familiar surroundings appeared once again.
...
It was night.
The neon lights between buildings shone through the windows into the room, and the smog-covered air obscured the moonlight, entirely different from the bright moonlight in the game.
The computer on the desk emitted a faint glow.
The entire room was silent.
Gu Yi stood there dazed for a moment before shaking off the unfamiliar feeling of the modern city. He picked up the phone beside him and checked the time.
It was already almost ten o’clock.
Gu Yi took a deep breath, then turned on the room light, carefully observing his surroundings.
There was still no change.
Gu Yi was not disappointed as usual when exiting the game; the time in the game had only just reached the Tang Dynasty, still over a thousand years from present times.
It would be strange if there were significant changes with such a time span.
In the past, he might have been distracted by this.
But now Gu Yi’s state of mind was completely different from before; he was unfazed by it, quietly leaving the room.
