As soon as he boarded in, Bai Liu fell into the ocean.
This seems to be an extremely deep sea area. Bai Liu felt the tremendous pressure from his body. If it weren’t for the high quality of his current panel, it would be because of the water pressure the moment he was transported into this sea area. The body was directly squeezed and exploded.
The deep sea was dark and dull everywhere, but the waves from time to time told Bai Liu that there must be some kind of large fish wandering around here.
In short, it is a place not to stay for long.
Bai Liu turned his eyes and looked at the only light source in the deep sea, a huge city sinking under the sea.
Or it is not accurate enough to describe it as a city. Bai Liu is suspended very high above the seabed. The entire city below him is the city. He can't even see the boundary. What's even more bizarre is that the city is wrapped in a huge semi-circular shape. The protective cover in the glass protective cover, Bai Liu, has a familiar feeling. When he was caught before the Heretic Bureau, the protective cover outside the Heretic Bureau was of this style.
It stands to reason that the inside can be seen through the glass protective cover, but golden dust is floating above the entire city, and only a vague glimpse of the gorgeous buildings in the city.
This seems to be a prosperous city, but for some reason, it is now covered with a protective cover and sank to the bottom of the sea.
Seen from the angle above Bailiu, the city exudes a warm golden light, and the golden sand dust inside it floats up and down like snow. It looks like an extra-large snow crystal ball, with a fairy-tale texture.
This should be the lost country of gold.
System reminder: Players please enter the Lost Kingdom of Gold to unlock the main mission.
Bai Liu moved downstream, and he quickly touched the top of the protective shield. The moment he touched, he fell into the golden country under the sea.
The golden dust from the sky suddenly poured into Bai Liu. He stabilized his body and fell on the roof of a high-rise building. The roof was covered with peculiar gold powder. It would be a little slippery when people stepped on it. Bai Liu looked down at the sky. The golden dust seemed to fly endlessly in the middle, stretched out his hand to take a little, and squeezed it open.
The texture is so fine that I can breathe in.
The ground is covered with this kind of fine gold powder. From the gorgeous and solemn dome palace building on the horizon to the building in front of you, it is shrouded in a peculiar layer of gold dust. The ground is also full of gold powder, golden. The whole city was so swaying that people couldn't see it clearly, and the whole city was extremely quiet, not to mention human voices, not even the birds' calls, so quiet that only the sound of falling dust could be heard.
System reminder: Ask the player Bai Liu to find a fairy tale book that is widely circulated in the Golden Country, learn about the background story of the copy, and unlock the main mission.
Bai Liu jumped off the roof with ease. After landing, he found a landmark building nearby and sent a message to his teammates, asking everyone to meet here. In less than three or four minutes, all four players Came here.
"We didn't encounter any NPCs or monsters blocking us on the road." Tang Er hit the gun and received his waist, frowning and said, "Neither did we meet the person of Golden Dawn."
"I originally thought they would attack them quickly as soon as they entered the dungeon, but along the way I observed the dust on the ground and did not see the footprints of anyone other than us."
"That's right." Mu Sicheng looked at the strange environment of this dungeon, rubbing his goosebumps arms, "I'm ready to run, but no one is chasing me."
"It may be related to the game settings of this dungeon." Liu Jiayi raised her head and clicked on her own system panel. "Because the background explanation and main missions of this dungeon are different from before. You don't give it as soon as you come in, but you have to explore it yourself. The other party may be as prepared as we are to unlock the main mission before acting."
Mu Ke nodded in agreement: "But in general it is not a bad thing for us, this can be regarded as a buffer of time for us."
"I don't think so." Bai Liu shook his head and denied, "Golden Dawn was not originally a team to fight speed wars. Fighting speed stations is our countermeasure. They like to slow down the rhythm, but slowing down the rhythm is not good for our players with skills. of."
"The overall idea is still the same as before, and a quick fight is made."
Bai Liu looked down at the golden dust on everyone's body, and narrowed his eyes slightly: "I always feel that this copy itself is more threatening to me than Golden Dawn."
"Let’s find a fairy tale first."
"Yes!"
A group of people, led by Bai Liu, walked into the nearest building. The building was also full of floating gold dust. The notice board at the front desk had been smeared with gold dust. Liu Jiayi squatted down and wiped off the thick layer of the notice board. Thick gold powder, only saw the above content.
Liu Jiayi stared at the words on it for a while, then waved: "Muke, I don't understand this kind of character."
"Come here." Mu Ke walked over, stared at the notice above for a while, and then meditated for a moment. Elective courses, probably the meaning can still be understood."
"This notice is written in this month's notice, stating that there are still thirteen households that have not paid the utility bills this month, and one household with serious arrears owes a total utility bill of about 500g... ”
"gold?"
When Mu Ke saw the last phrase, his tone was obviously hesitant.
"Wow?!" Mu Sicheng squatted over with great interest, "A catty of gold for water and electricity, what is this family doing at home? Have you raised goldfish?"
"Compared with this, what surprised me more was other places." Mu Ke flipped the sign forward, and his look became more bizarre. "There is no currency issued by itself in this place, and their daily transaction is generally equivalent to gold. Gold is used for payment of utility bills, and gold is used for daily food purchases. Three apples are 2g gold, and a whole beef leg smoked meat is 12g gold."
"...Use gold for daily transactions?" Mu Sicheng was stunned, and he converted silently in his heart, "The prices are so high, the people here are really rich."
"You can use gold as a trading currency, and the prices are so high. This place should be a very developed economy. They used to be very rich." Mu Ke frowned. "But it's definitely not recent. The rent of this building has recently increased. By four or five times, the unit price of various water and electricity supplies has increased by nearly forty times. Basically, the price of food can be said to start on the ground, one price per day."
"That's why there are households who owed a catty of gold to the utility bill before."
"All kinds of things are going up in price." Mu Sicheng asked hesitantly, "Isn't it supposed to show that people in this place are getting richer and richer?"
Mu Ke glanced at Mu Sicheng: "It depends on the price increase."
"If the price increase is for non-essential items that are already very premium and very serious, such as luxury cars and watches, toys for wealthy people, it means that everyone has the money to do some non-essential enjoyment. In this case It is indeed a performance only in areas where the economy develops better and better."
"But judging from the announcement of this building, the prices of some slightly higher-end foods, such as cheese, are falling. Instead, the price increases are all necessities such as smoked meat, apples, water, electricity, and renting a house. That can only show the money in this area. , Or gold has flowed into survival products, which shows that people in this area are living very badly, which will allow them to hoard a lot of necessities under panic, causing the price of necessities to double."
"What I saw is basically consistent." Mu Ke clicked on the bulletin board. "There are more and more tenants in this building who can't pay rent."
"But in fact, it is hard for me to imagine that a place that uses gold as a currency for circulation will have a premium to this level." Mu Ke said, "As long as there is a port in this place, they are willing to use gold for foreign trade. I believe there are many in this world. It’s where 2g of gold is willing to sell their 400 apples, but I can’t see any traces of foreign trade."
"A catty of gold has been the living expenses of many families for several years, but it is only the utility bill for this building for a few months."
"There are many people in the world crazily thirsting for their gold, but they are stationed here, unwilling to trade with foreign countries, and let prices soar."
"Perhaps it is because too many people want their gold that they are unwilling?" Bai Liu squatted down on one knee and raised his eyes to look at Mu Ke who was startled. what happened?"
"This is also one of my strange places." Mu Ke pondered for a while and replied, "I learned a very rare small language. In the real world, few countries use it. The origin of this small language is one. This is a civilized language that only exists in legends."
"It is said that more than a thousand years ago, there was a very prosperous ancient country next to the ancient sea area of the ancient Luo Sea. Although this country is not vast, it is just a small coastal country, but this country is very rich and rich. Almost even the floor of their palace was paved with gold. It was known as the golden country favored by the gods. At that time, it was almost the center of economic exchanges around the world. The surrounding small countries were longing for this country, and they imitated the language of this country. , Passed down to the present, is the small language I am learning now."
"But everything in this country is inferred based on the existing historical documents of some neighboring countries. There is no real remains or historical data to prove that this country really exists, and there is nothing to prove the origin of the language I have learned. From this country of gold."
"But now it seems." Mu Ke looked at the gold dust-covered display screen, radio, and several very modern mobile phones next to the front desk, "This country really exists."
"And it has developed silently for a thousand years in a place where we can't see it, until it perishes."
Mu Sicheng felt very complicated when he heard it: "...How could you learn such a small language?"
"Because my father wants me to learn that a son like me who can't inherit the family business can only be used to show cards to the outside world. When I learn things that everyone around me doesn't know, he will feel honored because of it, so I have learned a lot of things that I find useless but he finds very stylish. Small language is one of them." Mu Ke replied with a smile, "You can understand this as the boring vanity of the rich."
"But it's not meaningless to be able to come in handy now."
"So the system is asking us to explore why this country will perish, right?" Liu Jiayi frowned and said softly, "The country of gold, blessed by God, sounds very good."
She didn't continue, Bai Liu glanced at each other, and everything was silent.
It sounds like a white six.
"It's asking us to find a fairy tale book, right?" Tang Erda carefully searched the address book at the front desk, "It's easier to have a fairy tale book in the room of a household with children?"
"There are three households with children on the second floor, and there are also on the third floor."
Tang Erda took the address book and turned to look at Bai Liu: "Shall we go up and look for it?"
Bai Liu nodded: "Let's go."
The process of finding a fairy tale book was not difficult. When Tang Er opened the door of the second room, they successfully found a fairy tale book on the table covered with gold powder.
"The name is the Kingdom of Gold, Blessed by Gods." Mu Ke took the book, read the words above, and then looked up at everyone, "It should be this book."
"You translate, let's listen." Bai Liu sat on the small bench next to it, and put on a gesture of listening attentively.
"I may not be able to turn them all right." Mu Ke took a deep breath, "but I will try my best."
He opened the first page of the thick fairy tale book covered with gold dust.
"A long, long time ago, maybe a thousand years, right next to the Ancient Luo Sea, there was a beautiful coastal country called Gu Luolun."
At the same time, Georgia was standing in the palace. He looked down at this familiar and unfamiliar place. After ten years, he once again set foot on the ancient Luolun country where he himself sank to the bottom of the sea. He watched the sea for ten years. The biggest and most expensive heresy of the year, his only and unforgettable homeland.
This palace, this gorgeous palace sprinkled with gold powder, was the place where he was born and grew up. He still remembers that when he was ten years old, the whole country celebrated his birthday. When he was young, he stood outside the palace platform and stood on tiptoe from Looking down next to the fence higher than him, the square is full of people cheering for his growth.
They set off fireworks and waved gold powder made of gold, calling his name loudly and affectionately:
"Georgia!"
"Georgia!"
Gold dust and fireworks fell on Georgia’s shoulders, and the people’s eyes reflected the world’s most beautiful brilliance. He suddenly held on to the railing, looked at all this bustling, and whispered: "I really deserve what they did for me. Is it all?"
His father, the king of Guloren, laughed and leaned on his shoulder: "You are the crown prince of Guloren."
"You are the king who will lead them to a more brilliant golden age in the future, will protect them, and protect them."
"Of course you deserve it all!"
"But in case..." Little Georgia hesitantly clenched his fist, "What if I can't do it?"
"You won't do it badly." The king touched his forehead lovingly. "You are the best prince. I know. Although you look cold and harsh, you are actually very responsible from the beginning. My good boy, what you fear most is letting down these people who are looking forward to you with enthusiasm."
"And a person with such a fear will definitely become a good king."
"Hey." Seeing Georgia always frowned, the king awkwardly stroked his eyebrows. "My child, do you remember that fairy tale?"
"When you really do not do well on the day, we are the country of gold blessed by God, we can still go to God for help."
"But what if God doesn't help us?" Georgia couldn't hide his worry, which made him look a little mature. "No one will help us all the time for no reason. God helps us, and we must pay a price."
"Why?" The king laughed innocently. "The meaning of God's existence is to make believers who believe in him be happy!"
"Captain?" Kris asked softly, "What's the matter with you?"
"The system prompts us to find a fairy tale book. You took us all the way here. Is this a place you are familiar with?"
The existence of Heresy 0073 is the top secret of the three games. Except for Georgia and Lu Yizhan, almost no one knows what Heresy 0073 looks like.
Georgia closed his eyes, he gathered his thoughts, and when he opened his eyes, the captain of the three innings who was calm and defensive: "Yes."
"I remember there is a fairy tale book here, but I have forgotten the specific location. Go and search elsewhere in the palace."
"Yes, Captain!"
After several team members responded, they began a carpet search of the entire palace well-trained.
After a brief stay, Georgia moved towards the prince’s sleeping quarters in the palace. He walked steadily and solemnly, just like the day he became the crown prince. He walked over the high platform where he was cheered by the people and walked past him to learn to archery. In the pasture of Shushu, he walked through the flowerbed where Amand was knocked, and finally came to his bedroom.
Everything here is as rigid as it used to be. Thirteen bows and arrows of different specifications are mounted in straps and hung on the wall. The huge bookshelf on the opposite side contains various books in different categories, many of which have been flipped through, and there is gold in them. The leaf bookmark was specially created for him by his father.
Most of these books are professional books related to the governance of the country, and they are obscure to read. When he was young, he would also fall asleep when he was young. In order to force himself to read more, Georgia secretly hid an ice basin under the bed. When I was sleepy, I stood barefoot on the ice basin for a while, relied on the low temperature to wake myself up, and forced myself to watch more.
After being discovered by Armand and reported to his father, Georgia was punished by his angry father.
The body is the foundation of governing the country. Father criticized him harshly. You are so eager and utilitarian to learn things, and you can't keep calm in such a stable environment. How can you make the people follow you with peace of mind? !
At that time, Georgia was punished not to read books. Although he knelt to receive the punishment, his face was calm, but his heart was uncontrollable anxiety.
It seems that if this country is favored by God's servants, major things will happen without his attention.
At that time, the only bibliography that Georgia was allowed to read was the fairy tale book, the Kingdom of Gold, which is the family of the gods.
This book is a well-known fairy tale book in ancient Luolun.
But Georgia didn't like this fairy tale book. He resisted reading it, but he still read it at that time.
Georgia walked to the bedside, he slowly sat down on the bed covered with gold powder. On the bedside table next to the bed was a family portrait. He wiped the family portrait and saw Armand, who was only a few months old, and the board on it. He smiled but still faintly smiled in his eyes, his father who was smiling a little stupidly, and his mother who was sitting on a chair with a bright smile.
When Armand was four years old, their mother died. After that, his father fell into a slump and gave himself the title of crown prince in advance.
So this is one of their family portraits and one of his favorite photos, so it has been placed on the bedside, but when Guloren sank, the sleeping Amand walked too hurriedly, even this one. There was no time to take the photos.
Unexpectedly, after so long, I finally saw it again.
Georgia was quiet, then he opened the pillow and saw the fairy tale book he had hidden under the pillow. He turned to the second page:
"The people of Ancient Luolun Kingdom are hardworking and kind. Although the land they own is not vast and the land is not fertile, each of them lives a happy life by relying on their own hard work."
"It was an era when everyone was pursuing gold, but Guluorun had no gold mines and they couldn't get gold, so in the end they got used to a stable life and multiplied from generation to generation."
"Even though the people in the ancient Luolun kingdom are poor, they live so happily. This kind of happiness attracted the attention of God. He came to the king of ancient Luoren at that time, and said with a smile, you are willing to be one with me. deal?"
"The king asked, God, we are a poor country and there is nothing to trade with you."
"God said with a smile, yes."
"That's the happiness in you."
"You give me happiness and pay for pain. At this price, I give you countless and inexhaustible gold mines, enough for you to enjoy for a thousand years."
"But after a thousand years, you will pay me the pain."
"The king thought carefully for a long time. He summoned the people and asked everyone's opinions. The people were all rejoicing. No one would hate gold, especially this kind of gold that fell from the sky. Everyone agreed to God's deal. ."
Mu Ke turned to page six and continued to read softly:
"The ancient Luolun Kingdom has undergone earth-shaking changes."
"This originally gold-free land has become a country of gold. When the farmers dig everywhere, patches of gold will appear in the soil. When the fishermen go out, the stones spit out by the fish in the net are all gold. It doesn’t even need to be forged. Soon, Gu Luolun became the richest country in the world."
"But this kind of wealth has attracted a lot of countries that have eluded Guloren. They want to start a war against Guloren and snatch Guloren’s gold. In a hurry, the witty king found God again and said to God, no God who can’t, please hide us and leave only a small mouth, you can sell the gold, that’s it."
"God agreed. He hid Gu Luolun in the world, and no one can find the traces of Gu Luolun country."
"In this way, Gu Luoren has spent a thousand years in peace and prosperity, and it's time to pay the price."
Mu Ke turned another page, and the fairy tale book was over.
The author has something to say: save the manuscript
