All players: I can choose my own dungeon rewards.

“We call the event of the appearance of a group of messengers Advent.

The appearance of one messenger means that others will arrive soon, representing the beginning of chaos and disaster.

After the advent begins, the messenger may appear alone and pass through our world alone along a certain trajectory, or he may pass through with other messengers.

Based on more credible information, each advent lasts twenty to thirty minutes, but we cannot guarantee that it will be within this range.

When the messenger arrives, all humans in a large area will be affected, and various irresistible changes will occur.

The impact on the ground is large and direct, with a mortality rate of at least 80%. Hiding underground is much safer. Past experience shows that 96.7% of underground humans survive, provided they are under strict precautions and management.

Remember not to observe the messengers on the ground from a distance underground in any way. That is no different from your direct observation on the ground, and it will lead the disasters on the ground directly underground. This is a painful lesson.

Now let's start introducing the messengers in detail. According to our current speculation, most of the messengers have mysterious powers similar to rules. The types of powers they possess are divided into many categories. We will try to record as many as possible before all of them die, and number them in the order of introduction..."

"Messenger No. 1 is huge and black in color.

We have no idea of ​​its overall appearance, because anyone who tries to see its entirety will instantly shatter and disappear.

The power it possesses is presumed to be destructive, randomly eliminating surrounding targets, including other messengers."

"Messenger No. 2 is a triangle that rotates constantly and makes strange noises. It is about the size of a truck.

When it appears, please smile or laugh, or else your body will grow many mouthparts to do the laughing for you."

"Messenger No. 3, its image is erratic and difficult to describe, and its most distinctive feature is that there is a spherical black body in the center.

Its power is unknown, but it may be a messenger of security type.

But we must not be careless, because perhaps it has already affected us, but we are blinded by it without knowing it. "

“Messenger No. 4, this messenger appears as a pink ball of light, only the size of a football.

Its power and behavioral preference is restoration. For example, it may choose to rescue part of the target that has just been eliminated by the power of Messenger No. 1, and then mix them into one.

Two of our recently deceased companions have just been resurrected in half, and joined together in another human body. Needless to say, this is not a good thing."

“Messenger No. 5 has no form and does not exist in the material world, but when it appears, we can all sense it immediately.

This statement is strange, as if it comes directly into everyone's mind, but we confirm that this is the fact.

This messenger has the power to change people, such as making a human go crazy and attack others indiscriminately, or make him love eating hair and pull out the hair of everyone in sight and stuff it into his mouth, or make a person suddenly become literary and interested in composing a messy poem when facing death.

But there are also good things happening. One of my companions has gained strong observation skills because of its influence. He was able to distinguish and summarize a lot of the messenger's information this time. Thanks to Messenger No. 5."

"Messenger No. 6 is a tangled mass of blue threads, about the size of an adult.

It seemed to be very interested in us humans and liked to get close to us and touch us with its lines.

Some of my companions turned into indescribable lines on the spot after being touched, but for some people nothing happened.

It is recommended to stay away from this messenger as much as possible, as it seems inclined to spare those who avoid it."

"Messenger No. 7 is a very rare humanoid messenger, but it is only similar to a humanoid, with an image of a five-meter-tall golden faceless man.

It is a relatively safe messenger that will only use its feet to destroy any object that appears in its path. So far, no companion has been killed by it.

Some people claimed to have seen some of their companions having a brief verbal exchange with the messenger, but after investigation we found it unreliable, but we still chose to record it for safety reasons. "

"Messenger No. 8 is a very dangerous messenger. He is in the form of a black door frame that emits rainbow light. The door frame has a certain attraction to external objects.

When it appears, no matter where you are, you must stay where you are and remain quiet, otherwise you will be sucked into the door frame and pulverized by an unknown force before entering, so don't expect to find life inside the door frame. "

“Messenger No. 9, the most special messenger.

It is a gray-white rectangle, slightly larger than an adult's head.

What makes it special is that it can communicate with us. It is the only messenger that can show our human characters on the surface of its body to achieve mutual communication.

We had a brief conversation with it, in which it told us that following the rules would increase our chances of survival, and then asked us which rules we would like to follow.

One companion chose peace, one companion chose courage, and one companion chose protection.

Regarding these three choices, the parties involved later said that it was not entirely their personal will, they were influenced by external forces at the time, which shows that the messenger did not really have good intentions.

We very much hope that the messenger's promise can be fulfilled, but in order to preserve the message, we all chose death, so this is an ineffective conversation."

"Messenger No. 10 is a small unknown creature that does not resemble any life form on our planet.

When it arrives, all paths it passes through will turn red and remain red for a period of time.

We discovered that this messenger doesn't mind us getting close to it, but if any being comes into contact with the red path it leaves behind, it will lead to a disaster, even for other messengers.

We were fortunate enough to observe the conflict between this messenger and other messengers. The conflict was very short, and it was difficult for us to understand the process and results.

But there are some special things left on the ground, and we have tried our best to collect them as research materials for future generations."

"Messenger No. 11..."

……

"Time is running out. As the last recorder, I am about to die... The last thing I want to say is...

Everything above is fabricated! Hahaha! We humans are so delicious! So wonderful! Haha...uh..." "Sir, the above is all the content. The images are all meaningless impurities. Only the sound retains information."

When all the top-secret information was played, AI Xiaohong gave a voice reminder to Wang Zhifan, who was holding a smart watch, to pull his thoughts back from his thoughts.

"Hmm...Xiaohong, what do you think of this information? How true is it?"

Perhaps because he felt that there was too much information and it was a bit messy, Wang Zhifan continued to ask AI Xiaohong.

"Master, according to my detection, technically speaking, this piece of information has not been modified. It is original, so it has certain analytical value.

But I cannot comment on the credibility of the content. The universe is too big, and the cognition I have constructed in the past has been broken many times, and this time may be a similar situation. "

The advanced artificial intelligence from the urban planet responded cautiously and very conservatively.

"Well... no matter what, this time, thanks to you, Xiaohong, otherwise I would not be able to find such top-secret information from a host and crack it...

Please pay more attention to see if there is any information about the messenger in other places. No matter what form of information you find, please inform me as soon as possible."

After thanking Xiaohong, Wang Zhifan put on the smart watch and prepared to leave.

At the moment, he felt a bit complicated, as he felt that the difficulty of this copy had suddenly increased to a level that was difficult to predict.

Because if what this information says is true, it means that the messengers are a kind of high-level existence, and are definitely not BOSSes in the general sense. Defeating them and obtaining the core may be extremely risky and difficult.

"Thinking back on everything I know so far, the information in this document is very true. Even if it has a prank ending, it doesn't overturn the previous information. At least I understand why some things in this world are so strange."

"The so-called peace organization was probably not established spontaneously by the humans of this world, but was influenced by Messenger No. 9. The same is true for the Fighting Club that cannot escape the challenge and those who are obsessed with environmental protection even when the world is destroyed. Their weird obsession is not due to a short circuit in their thinking, but is restricted by the rules of a higher dimension."

"Speaking of which, it would take a very powerful being to set up rules that affect the world out of thin air. With my current strength, I simply cannot do that...

It is extremely difficult to defeat these messengers and obtain their cores. Perhaps the most reliable way is to wait for the messengers to fight among themselves, and then take the risk of picking up a core from the ground and delivering it to pass the level?"

While thinking, the invisible Wang Zhifan passed through the walls and came to the working area of ​​this underground research institute.

Compared to not long ago, he found that the staff here had undergone significant changes in their status.

Many researchers stopped their research work and thought silently with frowns on their faces.

It was as if they suddenly remembered something important but couldn't remember it completely.

"I remember doing this research many times... It's all meaningless and can't solve the problem of the messenger...

I must observe the messenger with my own eyes, this is the truly useful way of research!"

A middle-aged director in the laboratory muttered to himself, ignoring the beeping sound from the experimental equipment next to him, and seemed to have made some kind of decision.

“Brother, to be honest with you, I just had a sudden feeling that I had seen the messenger on the ground!
Their power is beyond description, even more exaggerated than the monsters in dreams! This is so weird!"

In the corridor, a young researcher suddenly spoke to his middle-aged colleague who was lost in thought.

After hearing this, my colleague did not comment. Instead, he silently took out a group photo from his pocket and looked back and forth at it with astonishment.

No one knew that for the first time in all these years the researcher understood why he had been carrying with him this photo, a photo that was believed to represent some of the missing people.

It turns out that the people in the photo were all great sacrifices in the confrontation with the messenger, great sacrifices for humanity but forgotten by humanity as a whole. He is the only one among the survivors who knows the truth and shoulders an important mission.

"I remember now. They left behind a valuable document! This document must be extremely important! I want to see the supervisor! I must find this document as soon as possible!"

The middle-aged researcher turned around and ran away in the corridor, leaving the young researcher next to him who had just sighed with a look of confusion.

Wang Zhifan, who was passing by in stealth, happened to see this scene, and he understood what was going on better than anyone else.

"It seems that after I broke a secret rule created by the messenger, there were subsequent effects...

Originally, the people in this world were restricted by that rule and could never touch the truth. Even if the truth was placed before their eyes, their minds would be distorted and they would naturally ignore or even forget it...

But now it’s different. Some of the restrictions imposed on the world have disappeared. They may soon know the efforts of many predecessors... and then fall into the deepest despair..."

I have to say that Wang Zhifan admires the humans in this world.

They never gave up in the face of "enemies" who were countless levels stronger than them, and in the face of existences that could mold them at will and even add more basic settings.

This is certainly related to the incompleteness of their thoughts and memories, but many of those who had faced desperate situations did die bravely and chose to leave hope to those who came after them.

"The humans of this world will never be able to escape their predicament if they rely on themselves alone. Even if they all hide underground, they will only die slowly. When an envoy gets interested one day, they will be extinct."

"But time is really strange. Extraordinary Games chose to send players here. Is it to let players help them? To open up a new way of survival for them? But I think the players may find themselves in danger..."

Thinking back on everything he knew now, Wang Zhifan felt for the first time that the dungeon was too difficult, but this excessive difficulty was more of a hindrance to other players than it was to him.

After all, he has relied on his unique advantages to develop to where he is today, and he has the ability to pass any enemy, no matter how strong it is. The process may be difficult, but passing the level is not a problem.

However, this instance is a type where players' teams settle separately. If other players face the messengers, how can they obtain their cores? I'm afraid that just facing the messengers will risk the whole team being wiped out.

This difficulty was obviously abnormal, just like the Dragon Peak dungeon he had gone through earlier, where the difficulty level of two dragons was raised to four dragons. Whether other players could survive depended entirely on his performance. He was extremely unlucky.

"Luck is also a kind of strength... After all, they and I are competitors, so I don't want to make so much trouble. At least they have the option of staying in this world for a long time and waiting for good luck to come."

After thinking for a while, Wang Zhifan put aside his messy thoughts and began to think about the envoy hunting plan. He was not a person who liked to take chances, so he decided to try to pass the level in a straightforward way. (End of this chapter)
