Gu Jiu was standing on a big ship.
The surroundings are the black Styx, the water of the Styx is still, and the ghosts' souls flicker in the river, like stars scattered in the night. Countless red spider lilies are blooming on both sides of the river, and the dark red red spider lilies spread out, like the light of a fire that is about to go out, with embers still remaining and no end in sight.
Apart from this ship, there were no other ships on the River Styx. It was dark and silent.
After a little thought, Gu Jiu realized that he must have been pulled into another space when he jumped off the arch bridge and landed on a boat.
This was why the ghosts on the boat forced them down the River Styx, and because she understood this, she chose to get on the boat.
Gu Jiu raised his head and looked towards the cabin.
The cabin window was open, with dark red curtains hanging down. The curtains were painted with golden red spider lily patterns, which were luxurious and exquisite, indicating the identity of the owner of the ship.
Gu Jiu walked over without hesitation and lifted the curtain of the cabin.
The cabin was decorated in an antique style with a strong sense of ancient charm. The man sitting by the window drinking tea fit in perfectly with such an environment. He looked over with a smile, looking very noble.
Suddenly, one would think that this was an emperor from the underworld.
"Madam, you are here." He spoke, his voice full of joy and his eyes full of tenderness.
Gu Jiu walked in and sat opposite him naturally.
The man smiled, poured her tea, pointed at the snacks on the table and said, "These should be what you like to eat. I bought them myself." There was a hint of credit in his tone.
Gu Jiu looked over and was not surprised to see familiar dim sum, all of which she had eaten in the ancient town in the past two days and had found to be delicious.
Her expression was a little complicated, and she couldn't help but say: "I tried to stop him twice, and I guess I can't stop him this time. Aren't you afraid?" I've never seen anyone so eager to die.
The joy on the ghost groom's face faded.
Seeing this, Gu Jiu confirmed his guess and his eyes became sharp. "Who on earth are you? Why did you turn into Ah Ji? Last night, you deliberately appeared when the zombies attacked us, just to attract his attention, right?"
He attracted Lu Ji's attention, but then quickly left, determined to get married. From all appearances, it seemed that he definitely did it on purpose.
In addition, his feelings are real and he truly loves her.
The ghost groom looked at her steadily, and suddenly laughed, "Madam is so smart, you should have guessed it."
Gu Jiu understood, "So, you were the one who issued the death notice?"
The ghost groom nodded, as if he would not lie to her as long as she asked, and said in a gentle tone: "I am the mayor of Youdu City. In folk terms, I am the master of the underworld - the Ghost Emperor. I can play with all the rules of this world and make the rules work for me."
"Why is the death notice issued?"
The Ghost Emperor smiled softly, "You want to come and destroy my home, so of course I have to kill you." He looked at her with gentle eyes, "Madam, don't worry, when you die, I won't let you suffer too much, and you will soon be able to become a ghost."
Gu Jiu smiled and said, "You mean, you want me to die when you welcome me to Youdu City?"
The ghost groom hummed and smiled shyly, "If you want to beat me, I won't object." He looked at her shyly, "I've been waiting for you to come, and you are just as I imagined. You look beautiful when you beat me."
Gu Jiu: “…”
She suddenly felt that she shouldn't have hit him when they first met.
But she didn't know that the ghost groom would have such an identity at that time.
Seeing that she had nothing to say, the ghost groom happily introduced it to her, "This is peach blossom cake, you ate it twice, this is cherry cheese, you ate it three times, this is..."
Gu Jiu really wanted to touch his forehead, as he always felt that this evil groom would not live long.
She felt a little worried. It was the first time she was truly worried about the boss in the game world.
But the other party was still asking: "Madam, are you worried about me?"
He was pleasantly surprised, very happy that she would worry about him, and in return comforted her, "Don't worry, he won't come here so soon."
"But he will always come looking for me, right?" Gu Jiu concluded, picking up the tea on the table and taking a sip.
The taste is very good, it is authentic Dahongpao, and it is food for human consumption.
The ghost groom smiled, seemingly not worried at all.
On his recommendation, Gu Jiu ate two pieces of cherry cheese and walnut cakes. Just as she was about to eat something else, he suddenly grabbed her hand.
"What's wrong?" She looked up at him and felt that the hand holding her was extremely cold. The cold breath penetrated into her bones. If she was not a B-level player, she would have been frostbitten.
As expected, he is the powerful Ghost King of this world, who can even play with the rules.
Although Lu Ji's hands were also cold, they were warm and not bone-chilling.
The Ghost Emperor said softly, "Madam, can you give me the chestnuts in your pocket?"
Gu Jiu paused for a moment and said jokingly, "Why, you want to eat chestnuts too? There's only one left, and it's been there for a long time, so it's no longer fragrant. If you want to eat it, you can go buy some on the street."
The Ghost Emperor did not respond to her. Instead, he took her hand, leaned over, and took the chestnuts out of her pocket.
The oily sheen on the chestnuts is still there, but because they have been stored for a long time, they are not very tempting.
The Ghost Emperor took a look at the chestnut, then clenched his palms and crushed it. A black flame rose up and burned the chestnut crumbs completely, leaving no residue.
After doing all this, he smiled at Gu Jiu sheepishly, "Madam, this way he won't come."
Gu Jiu blinked, pulled his hand back, and asked, "How did you know?"
This chestnut was specially placed in her pocket by Lu Ji just now. If the ghost groom separated them again like he did during the day, Lu Ji could use the chestnut as a medium to break through the space.
The Ghost Emperor said nothing. He took out a bottle of peach blossom wine and poured her a glass.
It seemed that he had prepared all the delicacies she had tasted in the ancient town.
Gu Jiu sighed and accepted the food he fed him, thinking it was another midnight snack.
At some point, the sound of stringed instruments began to sound outside the window, ethereal and beautiful. Gu Jiu looked out the window and found a boat coming towards the dark river. On the boat, there were ladies playing the piano and the zither, and dancers performing singing and dancing.
The dark River Styx gradually became lively.
Looking around, you can see flowers blooming on the other shore, boat sails intertwining, and beautiful silhouettes disappearing into the distance. What a beautiful scene.
It is indeed the night view of the River Styx.
"Madam, does it look good?" the Ghost Emperor asked with a smile.
Gu Jiu nodded, "It's very beautiful. You can't see such a magnificent sight in the world. I have never seen it before."
The Ghost Emperor said shyly: "As long as Madam is willing to stay, the night view of the Styx will bloom for you and you will be blessed with a peaceful world."
"dream!"
Ghost Emperor: “…”
Gu Jiu quickly said: "That's not what I said."
The smile on the Ghost Emperor's face disappeared again. His eyes became deep and he looked up at the cabin door. He saw a man lifting the curtain and striding in.
Gu Jiu turned around, stood up suddenly, and said with a smile: "Aji."
Lu Ji strode over and came to Gu Jiu. After making sure that she was okay, he pulled her behind him and then looked at the Ghost Emperor.
The Ghost Emperor also stood up.
Two identical faces, identical aura, the only difference is that the Ghost Emperor is a man and Lu Ji now looks like a girl.
But the aura they all exude is the same.
Lu Ji looked at the Ghost Emperor coldly, "No matter who you are, you must disappear. I won't allow you to use this face to deceive Ajiu!"
The Ghost Emperor's eyes were deep. Seeing Gu Jiu being protected by him, a dark jealousy flashed in his eyes. He said coldly: "I didn't deceive her. My feelings are the same as yours. You love her, and I love her too."
Gu Jiu: “…” I feel embarrassed to confess my feelings so suddenly.
Lu Ji exploded, "Shut up!"
He stretched out his hand, and a wisp of black flame leaped out of his hand. This flame was exactly the same as the one used by the Ghost Emperor just now.
When Gu Jiu saw the black flame and saw it was about to attack the Ghost Emperor, she grabbed Lu Ji's hand and said, "Ah Ji, don't..."
However, this time Lu Ji did not listen to her, the black flame had already entangled the Ghost Emperor.
The black flames enveloped the Ghost Emperor with a bang. The Ghost Emperor stood there without any resistance, but looked at Gu Jiu with eyes full of worry and reluctance...
"Wow!"
Gu Jiu suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Ajiu!" Lu Ji was shocked by this sudden change. He was shocked and angry. He quickly supported her, and his black eyes pierced the Ghost Emperor, "What on earth did you do?"
The Ghost Emperor's breath became a little weak. He was burned by the black flames and was in great pain. Even so, he did not make a sound. He said weakly: "If I die, this world will collapse and all living things will be destroyed, including them..."
The flames gradually died out.
The Ghost Emperor staggered against the wall of the cabin, his figure somewhat transparent.
Lu Ji didn't look at him. He helped Gu Jiu sit down, quickly took out a blood pill and fed it to her, and combed her injured body. Feeling that her internal organs were on the verge of collapse, he became even more furious.
The effect of the blood pill was still very good. In just half an hour, Gu Jiu felt the pain go away and he had recovered a lot.
She sighed and looked at the Ghost Emperor in confusion, "Why?"
She knew that if the game world was destroyed by abnormal forces, the players in the game world would be affected or even die if they could not leave in time. But she never knew that someone's life and death would be linked to the game world, and once he got into trouble, the game world would also be destroyed.
The Ghost Emperor glanced at Lu Ji and answered very obediently: "Because I am his power of destruction and also a part of his power."
Gu Jiu was slightly stunned.
Seeing her expression, the Ghost Emperor understood and couldn't help laughing. He said to Lu Ji, the real boss, "You didn't tell her?"
Lu Ji said nothing.
The Ghost Emperor said to Gu Jiu very considerately: "Madam, he is the last god of the universe. He was born from the Sea of Rules and inherited the destructive power of the fallen gods. He died to destroy the universe."
Gu Jiu: "... So, he is the destroyer?"
She had come across the concept of the Destroyer by chance on the Freedom Alliance forum.
It is said that some game worlds have destroyers, but those destroyers are too dangerous and only exist in S-level worlds. Many S-level players go on quests to destroy those destroyers. The danger of the destroyers is too great for even S-level players to handle, and many senior S-level players have perished at the hands of the destroyers.
If all the destroyers were of Lu Ji's level, she would understand the reasons why S-level players fell.
The Ghost Emperor laughed, "You can understand it that way if you want. He is indeed the destroyer of the world. People like me are part of the destructive force that he has abandoned."
Gu Jiu: “…”
She easily captured the Ghost Emperor's sinister intentions.
She could sense how stiff the man beside her was without even looking. This was something he had never explicitly told her, and it was also the dark side he tried hard to conceal, not wanting her to know that he was born unlucky, and was even the most feared destroyer in the heavens and all worlds.
No normal human being would like someone like him.
After a while, Gu Jiu said slowly, "So that's how it is. What else?"
Ghost Emperor and Lu Ji looked at her at the same time, their expressions were exactly the same, as if they were both asking, isn't she afraid
Gu Jiu said calmly: "How did you become the Ghost Emperor of this world?"
This statement goes straight to the core and is also the most crucial.
Since the Ghost Emperor is the force abandoned by Lu Ji, how could he become the boss in the game world
"I don't know either." The Ghost Emperor said frankly, "I have been here since I became conscious, and my existence is to destroy this world."
He is the force of destruction and naturally a destroyer.
As a destroyer, he is naturally closely related to this world. If a player comes in and wants to kill him, the world will be destroyed and the player will die with him.
The author has something to say: If you have doubts about the identities of the Ghost Emperor and the male protagonist, please read the copy =. =
It is such a powerful destructive force╮(￣▽￣)╭
