System reminder: Congratulations to the tester, Yi Xuan, for completing the epic plot task of light and darkness. Thanks to your great promotion of the game plot, you have obtained 50,000 bonus points. Your experience has been recorded in the game history. You are now the epic hero of the entire Alas continent.
"Yi Xuan, did you hear that? You are the hero of Alas Continent!"
"Master Yi, great."
System, Edward, the players kept making noise in Yi Xuan’s ears, but I don’t know why Yi Xuan looked at the beaming faces in front of him, but he didn’t feel happy at all. His brain was caught in a short period of time. In a strange trance, it was as if a person was doing things step by step, then he was in a daze, and suddenly found that everything around him had changed, and then suddenly he didn't know where he was.
At this moment Yi Xuan opened his eyes to watch the salute of the players in front of him, and Edward nodded at him with a smile, but for a moment he forgot what they were celebrating for.
Surrounded by the crowd, Yi Xuan walked towards the outside of the tower step by step, followed the crowd through the corridor, followed the crowd down the stairs, followed the crowd into the portal, the dark tower was full of monster corpses, some of them were chopped to blood and blood. , And some were burnt black, Yi Xuan's eyes drew over them, and he heard only a little heavy breathing in his ears.
"Elder Yi." Mary ran over happily, and then Rexxar, Yang Kai and other heroes who had been left behind also returned to the team. After the Shadow God was sealed, the monster leaders who still insisted on fighting also Lost control and no longer resisted, so he was all killed soon.
These heroes all heard the system's prompt and knew that Yi Xuan had won the final victory. Everyone rushed to congratulate him. But when everyone saw Yi Xuan's face, no one who was acquainted with cheers came out. Everyone asked Yi Xuan cautiously. Everyone around them shook their heads in confusion and said they didn't know.
Yang Kai looked at the team and immediately understood something. He walked a few steps to Yi Xuan's side and asked in a low voice: "Brother,..." Yi Xuan still moved forward mechanically, as if he didn't hear him, Yang Kai In a hurry, he took two steps and grabbed his shoulder, "Old Yi!"
Yi Xuan stood still, turned around, looked at Yang Kai's face, and seemed to be identifying something carefully. After a while, he said, "Yang Kai, what's the matter?"
Yang Kai breathed a sigh of relief, and it would be nice to know people. He was afraid that there would be something wrong with them, which would make Yi Xuan's memory disappear, but the purpose of Yi Xuan's coming here is a secret. Yang Kai pulls him After walking a few steps forward, he cautiously asked, "Where is Zhao Beifeng? Did that guy come down?" Actually, Yang Kai didn't see Zhao Beifeng in the team. Let Yi Xuan confirm it again.
Yi Xuan shook his head stupidly, "Zhao Beifeng is dead." This sentence seemed like a sap. Although it was a fact, when I said it, I still felt that my chest was beaten. Yi Xuan said again "Zhao Beifeng" He... is dead." It seems that this is the only way to determine this matter, and also in my own heart.
I also felt that Yang Kai was still in his heart, but fortunately he was mentally prepared and patted Yi Xuan on the shoulder, and said helplessly: "You have done your best, brother, this is his life, you also look away. Click it."
Yi Xuan nodded, shook his head again, barely squeezing out a smile and said to Yang Kai: "It's okay, it's okay. Actually, after all, Zhao Beifeng and I are just ordinary friends."
Although Yi Xuan said so, Yang Kai still felt the pain in his heart when he saw his performance. At the same time, he also had a deeper understanding of Yi Xuan's behavior. He was just an ordinary friend. With both ribs piercing the sword, even risking his life to single out the Shadow God, it can be seen that Yi Xuan is really a good brother.
Yang Kai didn't say anything more, thinking in his heart, if he encounters such a situation in the future, there is a brother Yi Xuan, even if there is no worries, the two continue to walk outside the tower side by side, and a group of players and Looking at the back of the two of them, the NPC seemed to feel an unprecedented dignity and emotion. At this time, Edward, who was also an elder, became inconspicuous.
Yi Xuan's mind was still thinking about the hungry words he had just said. Ordinary friends, yes, his knowledge of Zhao Beifeng is actually very superficial. Except for the cup of soy milk he got from Zhao Beifeng, he knows that he seems to live outside of the capital. I don’t even know about Zhao Beifeng’s family situation, his original career in the real world, whether he has a girlfriend, or even whether he likes men or women. From beginning to end, he only knows about Zhao Beifeng. Limited to the game world, it can only be regarded as the degree of mutual understanding between a teammate, not even familiarity.
Then why do I feel so deeply about his death? Yi Xuan looked at the monsters on the ground numbly, and suddenly realized that he was not for Zhao Beifeng, because when he saw the monsters on the ground, he also felt sad. He was for himself. Zhao Beifeng’s death was like a revelation. , Heralding his future ending, you know, he has always had a blind trust in Zhao Beifeng, because Zhao Beifeng’s performance is too sharp and wise, always making Yi Xuan feel that there is nothing he could not think of. Yes, there is nothing he can't solve, but at this moment, Zhao Beifeng died in his arms, which made him deeply understand that this game world is much more cruel than he thought, even if it is Zhao Beifeng Such a person will inevitably die.
What about yourself? When will he inexplicably die in the hands of those fanatical players, or fall under the calculation of the system? The power he possessed now seemed to be powerful, but under the constraints of the rules of the system, it was actually weak at all, and could die at any time. While thinking about it, he mechanically walked out of the gate of the Tower of Darkness.
As soon as the tower of darkness came out, cheers like a mountain immediately spread to everyone's ears. There were thousands of players resurrected in the camp. While regretting themselves, they were also deeply happy for the brothers in the tower.
The NPC hero came out first in the tower. In the cheers of the players, they raised their arms and shouted, everyone shouted crazy, venting the excitement in their hearts and the fear of having just experienced the battle of life and death, and then the players also rushed out. The army of players on both sides mixed together, cheering and jumping. The inside was recorded in the annals of history because of themselves, and the outside because of participating in such a historical moment. With the joint efforts of everyone, this epic battle was finally completed.
Yi Xuan stared blankly at the joyous crowd in front of him, but his mood was down and there was no ups and downs. Today he celebrated for killing Zhao Beifeng, and tomorrow he might celebrate for killing himself.
"Master Yi, you must follow me back to the empire. The top of the empire will reward you for your deeds." Sir Rexxar came to Yi Xuan excitedly and shouted, but only Yi Xuan's face was exposed. A faint smile, without saying anything, bypassed him and walked forward, leaving Rexxar's face blank.
Yi Xuan sighed. Maybe those NPCs who don’t know anything about reality are happy. They live in this world, and this world is reality for them, or it’s good for those players, they live in another world. A world, this game world is just a place of temporary pastime for them, and they can go back soon, but what about their real world? Maybe he will never go back.
He walked to a small hillside, stood on the hillside and looked back at the people celebrating in the mountains and plains, feeling in his heart that he and them are living in two worlds. They don’t understand the pain in their hearts, and they can’t blend in with their gains. Go in happiness.
"Um, are you Master Yi?" Suddenly a cowardly girl's voice reached his ears. Yi Xuan turned around in response, but saw a beautiful female elf player standing behind him, with a sense of awe and expectation. Looking at him, it was like those little fans waiting for idols in the real world. She has a pair of big, clear eyes that look like a deer. Although she knows that the appearance of sweetness and beauty are unique to the entire elven race, she still feels soft when encountering such gazes.
Yi Xuan nodded: "What's the matter?"
After confirming the identity of Yi Xuan, the girl visibly jumped for a moment, and then said in a slightly nervous voice: "Well, I have a mission item here. See if it is yours." Because Yi Xuan just killed Shadow God, even the league team now respects him.
The girl said that she handed Yi Xuan something that was obviously a letter. Yi Xuan frowned strangely. In his impression, he didn't have any correspondence with anyone at this time.
"Where did you get it?" Yi Xuan asked strangely.
"This is a task item I found in the tower. The system prompt is to let me return this task to you." When she said this, the little girl suddenly covered her mouth because she accidentally said the word system prompt. I don't know if it would be too strange for this NPC, but seeing that Yi Xuan didn't express anything in particular, he was relieved.
Found it while fighting monsters? Yi Xuan's heart suddenly moved. Could it be...? He suddenly reached out and took the letter, and the girl was shocked by the amount of action. At the same time, a system prompt sounded in his ear.
System reminder: Get the task item , please return it to the task person as a reward. At the same time, Yi Xuan also saw a vermilion lacquer seal on the envelope and a few large characters in regular script: The elder Yi Xuan of the Knights of the Holy Light kissed him. This is an encrypted letter, which means that the player can’t see the content of the letter. That’s not the case. Yi Xuan is too familiar with those words. This is definitely Zhao Beifeng’s handwriting, because they want to test the relationship between the system. At the beginning of the plan, Yi Xuan and Zhao Beifeng had passed multiple letters, so they were very familiar with Zhao Beifeng's handwriting.
Yi Xuan's heart was agitated, and his hands trembled. At this time, receiving Zhao Beifeng’s letter meant a lot to him. Perhaps Zhao Beifeng has reached this point, and perhaps things will take a turn for the better, and even more, will this letter contain it? Are you introducing Zhao Beifeng's resurrection
"Elder Yi Xuan?" The elf girl looked at Yi Xuan in a daze, looking at the letter, her face was joyful and surprised, and she called out a little worried.
"Huh?" Yi Xuan came back to his senses, and suddenly found that the girl was still there. Thinking of the system prompt just now, knowing that he still had no rewards, he flipped through the package, and then found out a piece of silver quality equipment and threw it to him. That girl.
"Ah! Thank you, Elder Yi." The girl couldn't imagine that it was just a letter delivery task. She was able to get such a generous reward. It obviously made her feel extraordinarily surprised. She took over the equipment and left happily.
Yi Xuan hurriedly opened Zhu Qi and drew out the letter soil inside. His heart throbbed. It seemed more exciting than receiving a love letter. He took a deep breath and calmed down his mood. Yi Xuan took the letter. Unfold.
Yi Xuan:
Hello, I don’t have much time, because recently it is difficult for me to recover my will, so when you see the end of the letter, if you haven’t finished it, please don’t be surprised.
If you have come here, then I believe you already know the fact that I was possessed by the Shadow God. This matter is a long story. It can only be said that the system has too much control over us. It just lets the Shadow God Possession, instead of directly turning me into the god of shadow, I should be thankful, because although I know there is no chance, I can always resist.
Okay, let’s talk about business. If I’m not with you when you read this letter, then obviously I’m dead. This is not a result that I didn’t guess, it’s just a result that I don’t want to see.
For my death, you may be secretly hurting yourself at this time, but it doesn't have to be for me, it is for the despair of fighting the system, right? I don’t want to give you any more hope here, because I am really angry and disappointed about your failure. No wonder some people say that they are not afraid of opponents like gods and teammates like pigs. If my overall plan is If I execute it, it will definitely not end like this. Do you know what a race against time is? Do you know what race against time is? Do you know how much I suffer when you are happy outside
I really didn't expect to go up to a level template. You wasted so much time. If I were your boss, you would have been fired a hundred times now! !
Haha, okay, I’m done venting, I’m really bored lately, you don’t have to worry too much, I believe you should have done your best, so I can comfort myself, I know I can’t hold high demands on everyone.
Here I want to tell you a secret, a very important secret. Remember when we were chatting before, I told you my conjecture about this game world? If you remember, then you should remember that there were three conjectures I made at the beginning. The first two have already been told to you, and the third is too absurd, so I didn’t tell you, nor did you at the time. ask.
I have to say that you are really lacking in curiosity. This is a great advantage, but it is also a fatal disadvantage, which makes you miss a lot of things!
I originally thought that the third conjecture was definitely impossible to be true, but afterwards discovered that only this conjecture seemed to be in line with the reality of reality, even though this truth was very cruel, and even subverted your entire worldview. After this period of experience in the game, I have confirmed my guess more and more. Now, am I very curious about my last guess
Then I am sorry to tell you that you will never know what the truth is. If I can leave the Tower of Darkness alive, I will tell you personally.
But unfortunately, since you saw this letter, it proves that you have failed, you bastard, why did you fail? Do you know that your failure means my disappearance! I don't want to leave like this. I am only in my twenties and just hang up like this. I put all my hopes on you, but you failed me. Don't you feel ashamed
In order to punish you, but also to save you, I decided not to tell you my last guess, and let you spend the rest of your life in guilt and doubt. Anyway, the day you will know it sooner or later, when you know it, it will hit you harder, hahahahaha, wowhahaha, my King of Shadows is really smart. (In the end, this sentence was drawn out again with random strokes.)
The letter ends here. It can be seen that the will of the Shadow God once again eroded Zhao Beifeng's will. Yi Xuan took a heavy breath. There was a feeling of weakness in his heart. Seeing Zhao Beifeng’s accusation against him, There is also a longing for life, which makes his heart that is uncomfortable even more painful. He could persuade himself. This is Zhao Beifeng’s life, but seeing Zhao Beifeng’s almost desperate groaning sound made him even the last I don't dare to think about any comfort, fate, is there really such a thing as fate in this world? Is this just an excuse for people to comfort themselves
Yi Xuan's hand dropped, and the letter in his hand fell to the ground with his movements, and immediately disappeared in a flash. This letter is a quest item, it is impossible to throw away randomly, it has automatically entered Yi Xuan Inside the package, whether Yi Xuan wanted it or not, it lay there.
Yi Xuan staggered and walked down the hillside. He wanted to find a quiet place now, and think about it. The camp is not good, it's too messy. He wants to stay away from here, as far as possible.
He kept repeating Zhao Beifeng’s bitter words and the third possibility he said in his mind. With the passage of time, those words gradually disappeared, leaving only the third possibility. What is it? Being able to change one's own worldview, so this may be about this world, but how can things in this world ruin one's own worldview? So it's about your real world? But how can real world problems be discovered here
Yi Xuan was really puzzled. His ears finally calmed down. The reason for this famine was the relationship between the God of Shadows. There were very few lives in the wild. There was only a whirring wind in his ears, which made Yi Xuan's ears. My heart finally calmed down and found a small slope leeward. Yi Xuan sat down and stared at the weeds in front of him constantly shaking by the wind.
