Hearing Tyrant HIM's words, Xu Yuan couldn't help feeling a little stunned.
'Goodness, I ran into the real one?'
Xu Yuan really hadn't expected that the Tyrant in front of him would say the name Herobrine.
Although Tyrant HIM didn't have the same powerful strength that the original HIM of this world once had, the fact that he possessed a domain already proved he wasn't some mere clone.
In other words, the Tyrant HIM in front of him could very well be one of the three real bodies of the original HIM.
If Xu Yuan's guess was correct, then Tyrant HIM might know about what happened in the past. And if Tyrant HIM really knew something, maybe Xu Yuan could follow the clues and find a way to leave the dark space.
Thinking of this, Xu Yuan asked Tyrant HIM, "Do you understand this world?"
Actually, Xu Yuan didn't dislike Tyrant HIM that much. Although Tyrant HIM's thinking was extreme, Xu Yuan could understand his mindset.
If Xu Yuan were a native of this world and had great power, maybe he would have also wanted to rule this world like Tyrant HIM.
The reason Xu Yuan could see things differently was entirely because he originally did not belong to this world.
He is able to use a God's perspective to look at problems, and also has those MC fan works he saw in his previous life as a foundation. So he can more clearly know what exactly this world needs.
But Tyrant HIM is different, he has his own thinking and his own way of looking at the world.
Xu Yuan also has no way to change his thinking and viewpoint. So there is completely no need to insist on fighting for a win or loss just because of different concepts.
Moreover, Xu Yuan feels that the development of this world is traceable. Every person's appearance has its meaning, as if everything is arranged by fate.
Since destiny made Xu Yuan and Tyrant HIM meet, and gave them the same abilities, making it impossible for them to kill each other.
Then the way to break the deadlock is not mutual slaughter, but must be approached from other aspects. So Xu Yuan would try to have a chat with Tyrant HIM.
Moreover, Tyrant HIM being able to tell Xu Yuan his own name also shows that his attitude towards Xu Yuan has already changed somewhat.
Whether it's because he feels like he can't get out anyway and has a 'broken jar broken fall' mindset. Or because he feels that Xu Yuan is not a fake's mindset.
In short, Tyrant HIM has already lowered some of his guard. If Xu Yuan wants to break the deadlock, he can only try to have a good chat with Tyrant HIM.
Hearing Xu Yuan's question, Tyrant HIM was stunned. Looking at his expression, it seemed he did not expect Xu Yuan would have too much communication with him.
Tyrant HIM thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, " I don't understand."
Although Tyrant HIM has not yet left the gray space, but there are still players and Mustard visiting the gray space. He can peek at the appearance of this world from their memories.
To Tyrant HIM, this is completely a strange world.
Tyrant HIM thought of this, then continued speaking, "This world, although similar to the world I was in, still has differences."
Hearing Tyrant HIM's words, Xu Yuan couldn't help feeling a little confused.
Xu Yuan speculated that Tyrant HIM belonged to this world, maybe like the End Queen, Dread Lord, and Wither King, who had their memories erased and didn't remember past events.
But he didn't expect Tyrant HIM would say something like "similar to the world I was in."
If he were really like the End Queen and the others, then even if the world had changed a lot, even without remembering the past, he would not feel strange toward this world.
But the meaning in his words is, he does not belong to this world.
This to Xu Yuan was absolutely a quite shocking piece of news. Xu Yuan thought for a moment, then asked Tyrant HIM, "The world you were in?"
Seeing Xu Yuan continuing to ask, Tyrant HIM looked as if he was very conflicted. After thinking for a while, Tyrant HIM took a deep breath, seeming to have made some decision.
Then finally spoke, "I do not belong to this world."
"Speaking of which, we actually have some similarities. This body, although it has the same appearance as mine, does not belong to me."
Hearing Tyrant HIM's words, Xu Yuan immediately had a pupil-quaking reaction.
"This body doesn't belong to you??"
The amount of information in this sentence was really too much.
Clearly, Tyrant HIM had already said he was called Herobrine, but now he said this body doesn't belong to him?
Thinking of this, Xu Yuan instantly felt a bit confused.
While Xu Yuan was brainstorming, Tyrant HIM continued speaking, "Mm… this body's abilities and my original abilities are somewhat different..."
After saying this, Tyrant HIM didn't explain further but diverted the topic and continued, "The world I was in isn't much different from this world. It is also a world where players exist. And I am the Undead Army's Leader of that world, Herobrine."
"I ruled over all the undead armies in the world..."
Speaking of this, Tyrant HIM's gaze became complicated. He did not continue talking, but changed the tone and said, "In short, I also don't know why I came to this world..."
"After arriving here, I have been trapped in this space. And somehow, from the moment I entered this space, a method to leave appeared in my mind... which is the domain collision method I mentioned before."
"..."
Tyrant HIM's words were like a storm of information to Xu Yuan. In just a few sentences, the information density exploded.
First was that this body's abilities and his original abilities are different. Meaning, this body does not originally belong to Tyrant HIM. It's highly likely that this body is actually one of the real HIM's clones.
Just that for some unknown reason, it only had an empty shell without a soul. Tyrant HIM's arrival served as its soul.
Next was the identity Tyrant HIM mentioned about his original world.
'Undead Army's leader.'
He ruled over all undead armies in the world. And that world also had players.
Xu Yuan also searched his memory for these keywords. Very quickly, a name of an MC fan work popped into his mind.
'Shattered.'
In the MC animated movie "Shattered," HIM is the leader of the undead army, leading undead armies to attack humans, wanting to dominate the world.
Although in many fan works, HIM can control the undead. But Xu Yuan feels that there's an eighty percent chance Tyrant HIM comes from the "Shattered" world.
Because he just said that many abilities of this body are different from his original ones.
In "Shattered," HIM did not have a domain, nor could he control obsidian. Whereas this body's abilities in this world can.
Moreover, Tyrant HIM only mentioned players from that world, which suggests that there were no other forces like villagers or animals.
So it's highly likely that Tyrant HIM comes from the "Shattered" world.
Thinking of this, Xu Yuan looked at Tyrant HIM and asked tentatively, "Do you know the End Queen?"
Hearing this name, Tyrant HIM immediately froze, his pupils visibly trembling.
At this moment, even if Tyrant HIM didn't answer, Xu Yuan already knew the answer he wanted.
'Looks like he really is Herobrine from the 'Shattered' world...'
Tyrant HIM's eyes already showed that he knew the End Queen. And judging by his expression, their relationship seemed a bit complicated.
In "Shattered," HIM and the End Queen were enemies. Although they were enemies, it didn't stop players from shipping them.
After all, HIM had quite high popularity among players, and in MC fan works, the End Queen was basically the only female character. And she was that cool and beautiful type, so players naturally paired her with HIM.
However, the exact relationship between HIM and the End Queen in the "Shattered" world was something only Tyrant HIM himself knew clearly.
Xu Yuan was a bit curious, wondering that if they could get out, what would Tyrant HIM feel upon seeing this world's End Queen?
But Xu Yuan was just thinking about it; although he and Tyrant HIM were talking quite well at the moment.
That was only because both were trapped here and had to discuss some things, trying to find a way to leave. If they really could leave, Xu Yuan and Tyrant HIM would likely have conflicting interests. It would be impossible to stay so peaceful.
While Xu Yuan was thinking, Tyrant HIM's question interrupted his thoughts. "You probably also don't originally belong to this world, right?"
Hearing Tyrant HIM's words, Xu Yuan nodded and said, "Mm, but I arrived earlier than you."
Hearing Xu Yuan's words, Tyrant HIM wasn't too surprised. He already got that information when he first contacted players.
Tyrant HIM thought for a moment, then continued asking, "Then your abilities…"
Tyrant HIM had also observed that Xu Yuan's abilities were almost identical to his. The difference was probably in infecting players and controlling bedrock.
Many of the abilities of the body Tyrant HIM currently possesses were abilities he didn't have before. So he also wanted to know whether Xu Yuan was the same.
"You are luckier than me. My abilities were all gained by myself, little by little."
It must be said, Tyrant HIM was indeed much luckier than Xu Yuan. Xu Yuan had to start from scratch and level up slowly, while Tyrant HIM logged in already having a full-level account.
Hearing Xu Yuan's words, Tyrant HIM seemed somewhat surprised. Although he knew Xu Yuan had arrived earlier than him in this world, judging from his own experience, he thought Xu Yuan would be similar to him. But he didn't expect Xu Yuan's abilities were all obtained through his own hard work.
'Seems I underestimated him…'
