Inside the consciousness space of the World Tree.
Joshua was forcibly dragged into the consciousness space by Shiratori when he was asleep tonight.
"I remember nothing to update today."
Qiao Xiu yawned and sat in the temporary residence established by the sublimators. At the suggestion of Qiao Xiu, the sublimators found a place in the consciousness space... and built an open-air cafe.
Now Mistress Yinsha is sitting opposite Qiao Xiu, and the white bird is standing on the table.
"Son of the forest, I'm sorry to disturb your sleep, but my friend found something unusual."
The white bird fluttered its wings and flew to Joshua's shoulder, and the white cat representing the Frost Elf World Tree jumped onto the table.
The white cat gestured to Joshua with its paws, and kept meowing.
"Can you... translate it?" Qiao Xiu was not Tailin and could not understand the language of the cat.
"A small part of the leaves I scattered by you were eroded by the gray fog, and it was concentrated in one area."
In the absence of Taelin, Shiratori had no choice but to act as the translator for the white cat.
"This may be the city in the real world, occupied by those monsters."
The expression on Yinsha's face was solemn, and she seemed to have discussed the reason for this situation with Shiratori before Joshua came.
"There are really some monsters that appear in the real world, and they won't just bite the leaves of the World Tree. Speaking of which, can you find out who the users of those leaves are?"
Qiao Xiu stretched out his hand to rub the white cat's head. It directly pushed Qiao Xiu's hand away with its own small paw, while the other paw pushed a translucent screen in front of Qiao Xiu.
"A total of twenty-three leaves were eroded by the gray fog, at the same time."
Joshua stared at a series of accounts from the magic net on the translucent screen. Among these accounts was a name that Joshua was familiar with, which was "Short Touch Wand".
"The erosion of the gray fog has opened a new connection point. If these twenty-three leaves are not discarded... the gray fog may invade my friend's body along the leaves." Shiratori reminded Joshua.
"A new connection point?" Qiao Xiu could understand what Shiratori was saying. The leaves of the World Tree were originally the medium used to connect to the World Tree server. In short, it was a door.
But this time the erosion of the fog has opened another door on these leaves, one that leads nowhere.
"The world tree of the dark elves... There may also be a space of consciousness, this new connection point." Joshua pondered for a while and looked up at the silver yarn in front of him. "The enemy's invasion is also an opportunity for us to counterattack."
"Going to war?"
Yinsha's eyes lit up when she heard Qiao Xiu's words. She and her tribe were building houses in the cracks of the world day and night, and playing NPCs and world lords to beat the players so that they could counterattack one day. gray fog.
"The door is still too small, it's just a connection point made of leaves, but it's fine to send a scout or two."
Qiao Xiu registered his role in the world rift, and this role was directly embodied on Qiao Xiu's side... She was a human female warrior from the alliance.
With brown skin and a top-notch figure, every time Joshua and Faya and the others had a dungeon, Ciri, Carroll, and Al would complain back and forth several times.
"How do you feel?" Joshua suddenly asked Yinsha.
"As a female warrior, this figure is too cumbersome." Yinsha seriously evaluated Qiao Xiu's role.
"I mean... You have fought against gods and heroes in the world of consciousness in the past, and you should have come into contact with them, right?"
Joshua doesn't understand why everyone cares so much about this character's figure.
Yin Sha realized that her focus was wrong, and her face stiffened, but she walked quickly to the character's side.
"It does have a lot of energy in it, like... a god I've met before."
This is the result that Yinsha has known for a long time. The sublimators are the GMs of the world's rift. Yinsha is the hero who watched the characters of those players evolve from weak recruits to the king of flames.
The energy gathered in these characters also proved that Joshua's plan was a success.
He created thousands of… artificial gods.
"Then the first reconnaissance mission will be completed by the person who spreads the fire."
Qiao Xiu picked up the white cat on the table. The white cat was surprisingly well-behaved when fighting against the gray fog. Qiao Xiu directly hacked into one of the twenty-three problematic World Trees, and then used that one. Leaf logged into his world rift account.
…
Cecil Nicaton, the second daughter of the current Nicaton family.
There is a word in her name that resembles the name of a sea creature, so people who are close to her call her Searle.
Cecil herself has no objection to this name, but there is only one person who is not allowed to call her this way, and that is the eldest young lady Hemina from another family.
After her failed confrontation with Hemina today, she found that she couldn't even get a good night's sleep.
At night she lay in bed until late at night and finally fell asleep in a daze.
But not long after falling asleep, she suddenly opened her eyes on the bed.
"This is my room?" Cecil looked around and found that she was lying in her bedroom, but this bedroom gave her a strange feeling.
Cecil didn't feel sleepy at all at this time, she got out of bed a little irritably and got dressed, ready to go for a walk in the garden.
Only when she pushed open the door of her room and came to the garden... Cecil found that the sky was gray.
Before going to bed, Cecil clearly remembered that the weather at night was good enough to see the stars.
There was a strange atmosphere everywhere in the garden, and Cecil heard a strange chewing sound.
"who is it?"
Cecil walked slowly into the garden, thinking that it was the time when the short-eyed attendant stole the kitchen.
She saw a dark figure on the other side of the flower bush, it was a monster with black hair all over its body. When it turned around, Cecil almost suffocated with fear.
It was a creature between a wolf and a spider. When the eight eyes on its face were staring at Cecil, there was only one thought in her mind, and that was to escape.
The moment Cecil turned around and took the first step, her body lost her balance because her calf was bitten by the monster!
The pain pierced into Cecil's consciousness. When Cecil, who was crawling on the ground, turned around, she saw the monster mixed with a wolf and a spider pressing her body to the ground with a sharp claw. .
Fear and pain made Cecil's breathing a little short. Cecil shouted for help around her, but no one paid her any attention. The guards and servants in the manor were completely gone.
Cecil closed her eyes in despair and waited for her death, but in the next second she heard the sound of a sword piercing her flesh.
She opened her eyes carefully, and found that the monster lying on her body had disappeared, replaced by a figure in heavy armor and holding two swords standing in front of her.
