Chapter 831 - 371 New Homeland and Hardcore Mode_2
Lin Meng finished speaking, and everyone looked around. Shana asked, "Stone?"
Stone grimaced and said, "I didn’t expect I’d be the one most likely to die. I choose True Hardcore Mode."
Stone’s attitude caught everyone off guard. Despite having decent attributes, as someone with extremely low combat ability, it was unexpected for him to opt for True Hardcore Mode.
Shana questioned, "Stone, do you think True Hardcore is easier?"
"No, I agree with you all. I think True Hardcore is definitely going to be hard," Stone paused before continuing, "these last two months... how should I put it? First off, I really admire Lin Wu’s fearless nature, even though it’s kind of mindless, it’s truly thrilling. My business on Blue Star has been okay, but it’s not the rush of money or the luxury that I miss. I miss the me when I had nothing, during the start-up phase."
Stone added, "I’m only thirty-five. I think I’m still young, even though you all call me ’old man’ and ’uncle.’ But I truly feel young. Yes, my reaction in action-based activities is not as good as yours, and in reality, I’m also quite clumsy. I’ve always been terrible at crafts since I was young."
Stone seemed at a loss for words and stood silently for a long while before saying, "I got divorced because I could see the end right from the start, and I was thrilled the moment I got picked for immigration. It’s like playing a video game where you already know the plot and have the ability to finish the game; everything else becomes meaningless."
Stone waved his hand, feeling he hadn’t expressed himself clearly, and after thinking for a bit he said, "If I can’t even muster the courage to take on a challenge in a game, then I can already foresee my whole remaining life after reaching Earth. It’ll just be living a retired life with the wealth I got from exchanged points."
