In front of the eyes is the endless desert, the strong wind blows the yellow sand, lifts the sand, and leads to layers of waves.
Almost even the air was dyed gray, the air was filled with countless particles of sand, and every breath felt choking.
As soon as Du Yixin opened his eyes, he was blinded by the thick fog and yellow sand.
Today is November 1st, the day when the "White Bird" is in action. After all, he was still worried about his elder brother and Ying Sheng, so he secretly followed them away on the day of departure.
In order not to be discovered, he stayed far away and was almost thrown off several times. Finally came to the commercial center located in the city center.
Because we were one step late, my brother and the others were already gone when we got off the bus, and they disappeared into the crowd. While he was on the way to find it, he suddenly felt that his body was pulled away and he was pulled into the dungeon.
Then, just wake up in a desert.
The air quality is so bad and the visibility is very low. He squinted his eyes and looked around, but there was no figure or building. It was as if he was the only living creature in the vast yellow sand.
At this time, there seemed to be a bright light flickering not far ahead. Du Yixin walked over following the light, but found a person lying on the ground, tightly wrapped in a cloak.
And that light came out from the gap in the cloak.
"How are you."
But there was no response, the cloak was huge and rattled by the wind.
Du Yixin squatted down and lifted his cloak. When he saw the person below, he couldn't help but pause.
Of course it was impossible to answer him. It's just a dead bone, and I don't know how long it has been in this uninhabited sandy land. Its whole body has been weathered, and it shatters at the slightest touch.
Then there was another gust of wind. Du Yixin subconsciously covered his mouth and nose, and saw the fine ashes drifting away with the wind. And what remained in the cloak was only a shiny bracelet.
The light that attracted him to come over just now came from the bracelet.
Du Yixin picked up the bracelet and looked at it. It is strung together by two metal rings, and where the rings meet is an eye-shaped ornament, which flickers on and off.
But the moment it was picked up, the light suddenly went out. Then, the eyes seemed to wake up and turned red.
[Hello, passerby.]
At the same time, a mechanically cold voice sounded in his mind.
Du Yixin looked at the bracelet: "Are you talking?"
[Yes, I am the "Eye of the Goddess", guiding the direction and light for human beings.]
It may be an important prop for this dungeon.
Du Yixin asked: "Where is this place, where should I go?"
[This traveler, you seem to come from an unknown place, full of doubts about everything. I will carry out my duties and try my best to help you. If you want to know the answer, put me on your wrist.]
It seems that if you don't follow its idea, you can't advance the plot.
Du Yixin saved a file and put on the bracelet. As soon as it was attached to the wrist, the metal ring immediately shrank to a suitable size, and it fit firmly on it without slipping.
Then the scarlet eye turned green. At the same time, a number appeared on the arm, marking "95".
[This is the "desert of death", no living things can survive. Every breath takes a significant dent in your health.]
As soon as the voice fell, "95" became "94" again.
[When the life value drops to "0", you will die. Please seek out nearby towns and seek shelter as soon as possible.]
Du Yixin held his breath and looked at the number on his arm, which was probably his existing HP. No wonder every breath is so uncomfortable, it is really bleeding.
He looked around, but there was still a long stretch of yellow sand. Without markers, he didn't know where to go.
Then, I heard the bracelet talking again.
[Release the main task. Main task one: go to the black tower.]
[Task completion reward: 5 points of life.]
This mode reminded Du Yixin of the online games he played in college.
This dungeon was different from usual, and he didn't directly give a clear goal for him to complete. Now it seems that only by following the instructions of the bracelet step by step can we know what the final mission is.
[I will guide you in the direction. Now, please walk in the direction of the beam of light.]
A ray of light shot out from the "Australian Eye", guiding the way forward.
Along the way, he was accompanied only by the blinding dust and the beams of light that changed from time to time. He couldn't help but regret not picking up the cloak just now.
Finally, when the number dropped to "59," he saw a town.
It is not so much a town as a closed building. It was completely black, and looked like a tower with its tip reaching into the sky.
[You have reached the periphery of the "Black Tower". Now, please try to enter.]
Enter? Where should I enter
He didn't see the gate.
Even so, he walked over. As soon as he got closer, he found a groove on the periphery of the black tower, which was exactly the same size and shape as the bracelet on his body.
He tried to put the "Australian Eye" into it. After a while, there was a rumbling sound in my ears.
The door is opened from the middle and splits to two sides. It was very dark inside, and I could only see the road a few meters away.
After Du Yixin walked in, the door closed immediately.
[Main task 1: "To the Black Tower" has been completed.]
[Gain 5 health points.]
Since it took some time to open the door just now, the value on Du Yixin's arm jumped back to 62.
Although it was very dark after entering, after getting used to it for a while, I could still see the road at my feet clearly. There is hard ground under the feet, and pointed rocks hang upside down on the top of the head, and a few drops of water occasionally fall.
Not long after, a light source appeared ahead. Du Yixin ran a few steps, then left from the darkness.
After coming out, I found myself standing on the mountain with a hidden cave behind me. Looking down, there is a stretch of undulating roofs, connected into a huge town.
And the most eye-catching thing is the crimson column in the center of the town, embedded straight into the sky.
Of course, there is no sky inside the Black Tower. No matter how high you raise your head, you can only see the rock wall that cannot see the sun.
And that column seemed to be supporting the rock wall above, preventing it from collapsing.
[Congratulations on escaping the danger. But after monitoring, the air quality here is not considered safe. Every 1 hour, your health will drop by 1 point.]
[Now I have to find out if there is a safer place. There is a village ahead, go and see it.]
Du Yixin noticed that the color of the bracelet changed again, from green to orange. Then, I heard the mission issued by the Eye of God.
[Main task 2: Go to the town and conduct investigations]
[Reward for completing the task: get 10 health points.]
Du Yixin let go. He thought that he would be able to meet up with his brother soon, but now it seems that it will take some time.
However, since they are in the same instance, the two of them should also come to the inside of the Black Tower first.
As Du Yixin walked down the mountain road, several oil lamps were set up on the way, which should be used by residents for lighting.
He arrived at his destination quickly, the gates of the town were wide open, and he entered with almost no obstacles.
Just as soon as he entered, he felt a little weird.
□□ Quiet.
There was no light on the rows of houses on both sides, and there was no pedestrian on the spacious avenue.
Although I don't know the current time, but just now when I came in from the outside, the sky was still slightly chilly, it shouldn't be late at night, so how could there be no one there.
This town almost seems to have been abandoned.
Du Yixin walked on the road alone, looking around. On the way, I also tried to knock on the door, but there was no response, and the door was locked.
And soon, he walked to the center of the town, and saw the red column that he had just seen at a close distance.
Looking at it this way, the cylinder is bigger than imagined, and it is covered with dense totems, which looks weird and mysterious. There is a huge eye in the middle, which is exactly the same shape as the "God's Eye".
In front of the totem, Du Yixin saw a group of people bowing down there.
The forehead is pressed against the ground, and the hands hang down to the ears, very pious. At a glance, there were at least hundreds of people, like the whole town gathered here.
And even if so many people gathered together, they couldn't hear the slightest sound and remained motionless.
Suddenly, the eyes on the totem emitted a dazzling white light, shining on everyone.
At the same time, everyone raised their heads, raised their hands, and accepted the holy bath in a trance.
The leader shouted: "Thank you for the miracle!"
"Thank you for the miracle!" the others yelled.
After a while, the white light gradually faded, and everyone bowed their heads again, reverently sending the gods away.
The leading man stood up. Wearing a loose white robe and a long beard, he turned to the crowd and said, "The long-awaited day of sacrifice is coming. When the time comes, you all have the opportunity to become sons of God."
He looked around the excited people, "For this, we need to make all preparations, and we must not let any factors affect the sacrifice."
After speaking, he put his hands on his chest and bowed to everyone. Everyone returned the gift.
Du Yixin felt that being discovered by them was not a good thing, so he hid in the dark early. After the crowd dispersed, he came out.
The huge eyes on the totem closed tightly as if they had fallen asleep.
He asked the bracelet: "What is this column, and what happened to those people?"
[Sorry, I can't answer.]
Du Yixin regretted not getting the desired answer.
People here seem to have a regular and organized schedule. The people just now did not stay after the dissolution and left one after another.
After confirming that there was no one around, Du Yixin approached the cylinder and found that there was also a groove on it, which seemed to be able to fit the "Australian Eye".
He tried to put the ring in, but waited for a while, but nothing happened.
What else is missing
Du Yixin took out the bracelet, remembering that when he opened the black tower before, the light of the bracelet was green, but now it is orange. Could this have something to do with the color
The "Australian Eye" answered this question for him.
[Only when the life points reach more than 80 points, it will be green. This proves that your body is in a safe range.]
In other words, the life point must be raised to more than 80 in order to continue to advance the plot.
That being the case, the only thing left to do is to keep completing the tasks given by the bracelet.
Du Yixin surveyed the surrounding area again, and left without anything worth paying attention to.
Walking on the road, he thought that everyone had dispersed and the town would be lively, but it turned out to be still empty. On the other hand, the houses around were lit up, as if everyone had gone home after kneeling down to worship the columns.
Du Yixin still didn't find any clues or other players, as if he was the only one who came in this dungeon.
And not long after, those illuminated houses also went out, and the whole town returned to dead silence again.
[It's getting late, I suggest you also find a place to rest. Resting indoors will help slow down health drops.]
Du Yixin glanced at the number on his arm, and now it dropped from 60 to 58.
The "Australian Eye" then dispatched a mission.
[Sub-quest: Stay overnight]
[Mission Completion Reward: Gain 5 Life Points]
This is to ask him to find those people just now.
Although Du Yixin thought they were weird, since he didn't have any more clues, he could only do this, and maybe he could take the opportunity to talk.
He immediately walked to a house and knocked on the door. The lights in the room turned on instantly, and a stooped old lady opened the door.
