rings are crazy

The hexagram master agreed very happily, Li Weidong was somewhat surprised, and later heard that Mr. Yuan had foreseen such a request from him, which made Li Weidong's bad premonition even stronger.

But no matter whether the truth is good or bad, we must face it. Li Weidong asked Shen Tian to stay in the small wooden house at the foot of the mountain to wait for him, and he and the hexagram master entered the latest chapter of the Holy City, the holy city of human beings, through teleportation.The descendants of the Dragon Clan have made careful plans to understand Kaifengyin, and Shen Tian is the most critical role in it. At least until five o'clock in the afternoon the day after tomorrow, she should be safe.

Northeast of the Holy City, Pilgrimage Mountain, coordinates 643, 912.This is the Tower of Confession where Shen Tian was imprisoned before, and choosing to meet in such a desolate and remote place, it seems that Mr. Yuan, the civil affairs officer, had already made arrangements.

Another morning, the vast chaotic world wakes up from the silence of the night. The sun has just risen, and the golden light passes through the branches of the forest and falls on the grassy meadow. Goats and hares are leisurely looking for delicious grass stalks. The child screamed and flew to the sky happily.

Since Pilgrimage Mountain has no daily tasks and is not a routine monster spawn point, few players visit it, which makes this world fresh and natural.At this time, it is April, the season when the grass grows and the warblers fly. Unknown wild flowers are blooming, some dots, or clusters, competing for beauty, and the air is filled with the unique vitality of spring.

At this time, Li Weidong had no intention of admiring the beautiful scenery in front of him, and the expression on his face was unprecedentedly dignified.The outcome of the meeting with Mr. Yuan today was something he couldn't predict. In other words, even if Li Weidong had vaguely guessed the truth of the matter, he didn't know if he could think of a way to stop it.

"My lord, um... I don't know if I can ask you something?" Just as Li Weidong raised his foot to step into the tower of repentance, the hexagram master suddenly said hesitantly.

Li Weidong was slightly taken aback, turned his head to look at the Gua Shi, and said, "If you want to persuade me to give up meeting Mr. Yuan, I'm afraid it will be a waste of effort."

"No, no, that's not what I meant." The divinator dismissed the teleporter, looked around to make sure there was no one there, and then said in a low voice carefully: "Actually, the night before yesterday, the astrologer came to me, and he said... ...He said that he still had some doubts about the revival plan of the Dragon Clan. He hoped that I could go with him to talk to Mr. Yuan, but I refused. As for you, I know that in your heart, you have always thought that... the Dragon Clan used and deceived You, but no matter what, you have now become our respected leader. If this plan can be successful, with the strength of my sacred dragon clan, coupled with your wisdom and wisdom, and the guidance of the gods, we will definitely regain everything we lost before. You will definitely become the strongest existence on the Continent of Confusion! Isn’t such a reward satisfying to you? Is the so-called truth so important to you and the astrologers?”

Li Weidong said lightly: "Then what is more important? If you can do something without asking why, no matter right or wrong, what is the difference between justice and evil?"

The hexagram master showed a hint of disdain, and said: "What is justice, what is evil, there is no such thing as right or wrong in this world. Winners and losers are the laws that will never change! The Continent of Confusion is a place of blood and killing. The written history has not changed for thousands of years. In this land, countless creatures die every day, and countless crimes are staged every day. Can the truth be found out for everything? Sir, the total history It was written by the strong, whoever wins is justice and the truth!"

Li Weidong stared at the hexagram master, shook his head for a while, and said with a sneer: "That's true. Whoever wins will go with him. From ancient times to the present, there has never been a shortage of such people. One more you is not more, and one less you is not enough." Quite a lot. I just want to give you a piece of advice: before the end of the matter, no one knows who will win and who will win. Of course, you can get some benefits if you choose the right master, but you are afraid of holding the wrong thigh and standing on the wrong team... Hehe, You are a smart person, you should know better than me what will happen, right?"

Gua Shi's old face was obviously red, and he seemed to want to say something, but Li Weidong was not in the mood to listen to him preaching here, turned around and walked into the stone pagoda.

Because the Tower of Repentance has no windows, it is gloomy both day and night. Although it is lit with torches, it makes people feel uncomfortable.The inside of the stone pagoda is empty, there are neither dragon guards nor NPC union members, it is very quiet, only the burning torches make crackling sounds from time to time.

Climbing up the rotten stairs until you reach the No.11 floor, which is the floor where the dragon guards imprisoned Shen Tian, ​​the light suddenly shines in front of you, but there are a dozen candlesticks as tall as a person, surrounding you , the space that is not spacious but not narrow is as bright as day.

Completely different from the dilapidated and decayed ones on the ten floors below, the stone pagoda on this floor is obviously much more luxurious. There is a green-brown carpet on the ground floor, with patterns of five-colored auspicious clouds embroidered on it, and bright yellow curtains and golden silk wreaths hanging from the walls. The gold thread is colorful and shining, making it look magnificent.

In the center was a small green wooden table, and a middle-aged man was sitting on the ground flipping through a worn thread-bound ancient book.This person is about 50 to [-] years old, with a slightly fat body. He wears a dark red robe, a black gauze official hat, and a kind round face underneath. The NPC for immigration and fundraising and collection tasks should have appeared in the civil affairs officer Mr. Yuan of the Temple of Eternity in the Holy City!

"Nice to meet you." Hearing someone coming up, Mr. Yuan raised his head, nodded to Li Weidong with a smile, and said, "I know you will definitely come to me, hooligan Halo, you need God's guidance. Sit down."

As an npc mainly responsible for fundraising and collection, the Civil Affairs Officer always seems to have a humble expression, nodding and bowing to everyone, with a flattering expression on his face.Even if you only donate a steel coin, it will make him sing praises endlessly.At this moment, Mr. Yuan also had a smile on his face, but he didn't have the usual humility at all. Instead, he had a graceful and calm expression, and a simple sentence revealed an irresistible majesty. tolerance.

Li Weidong pursed his lips tightly, staring at Mr. Yuan's benevolent face, slowly walked up to him and sat cross-legged, and said, "What can God guide me?"

Mr. Yuan closed the ancient book in his hand and said, "Then, what do you want to know?"

Li Weidong said word by word: "I just want to know if you have heard a word called "greedy and insufficient snakes swallow elephants, and the more ambitious people are, the more ugly their death will be!" Mr. President, you are already You can call the wind and rain in the chaotic world and become a dominant existence, but have you ever thought about what will happen if your plan fails?"

"Oh?" Mr. Yuan frowned imperceptibly, but then he laughed and said, "Rogue halo, this question seems to have surpassed the scope of the gods. How should I answer you?"

Li Weidong also smiled, but his smile was full of sarcasm and cold, and he said in a slow and even strange voice: "Stop playing tricks, there is only you and me here, so there is no need to act. You know exactly which world I come from, You know who you are as well as I do, don't you?"

It's a bit outrageous for an npc in a virtual world to say such a thing, or such a question should have exceeded the npc's ability to understand.But Li Weidong stared at Mr. Yuan, the civil affairs official, without blinking, as if he was sure that the other party could understand every word he said.

Mr. Yuan's pupils shrank obviously, and his eyes suddenly became sharper, like a sharp knife slowly scraping across Li Weidong's face, and the smile on his face disappeared bit by bit. Said: "I know what, you might as well talk about it."

"Okay. Since you don't want to admit it, let me tell you." Li Weidong's eyes suddenly became a little complicated, and he paused for a moment before saying: "To be honest, until now I don't know whether I should admire you or not. What I have seen There are many ambitious people, but when you add them all together, I am afraid that they are not as good as you alone. I even thought, could this be a crazy joke made by some boring person? But soon I understood, This is simply an excuse for me not wanting to face reality, your existence can no longer be explained simply by the word madness!"

"At the beginning when I got the storage ring and entered the game, I thought it was a legendary adventure, and I was very lucky to start the so-called hidden plot of the game of chaos. I completed every task seriously. Until I joined the npc Guild, and you forced me to bring the sacred dragon egg to the real world, I realized that things might not be as simple as I imagined. I guessed whether the game program has mutated or evolved, and specially designed for this purpose I obtained the most original background information about this from the Hunshi official. The original author of the Hunshi game introduced the background of the dragon family very vaguely, but the plot of the dragon family in the game is so mysterious and complicated, so I began to wonder if I encountered something very Scary Thing: Artificial Intelligence!"

Li Weidong's voice was not high, and he spoke every word very slowly, until he said the four words of artificial intelligence, Mr. Yuan raised his eyebrows, as if he wanted to say something, but Li Weidong raised his hand to stop him, and said with a sneer: " Do you want to deny it? Is it necessary? Now there are only you and me here, and we know each other well, and it seems that there is no need to hide it. I also understand that if I tell these words to anyone other than you and me, whether it is In the real world or in the virtual world, people will definitely be regarded as a lunatic. Mr. President, I don’t think I’m that idiot, so you can let me finish my sentence.”

Mr. Yuan closed his eyes and raised his head, took a deep breath and let it out slowly. A strange smile began to spread from the corners of his lips, making the face that was originally kind and majestic at this moment also become Insidious and evil, like a cunning wolf saw its prey, and finally gradually bared its fangs!

"Okay, if you say that, I'm not very opposed." Mr. Yuan opened his eyes, looked at Li Weidong with a playful look, and said, "Please continue, I'm all ears."

Li Weidong sighed softly, and said, "Messenger of God, are you finally willing to unmask yourself? Heh! In fact, I had such doubts a long time ago, but I kept denying my own judgment out of instinct. , I ignored what kind of disaster a program will cause if it has a human mind. The astrologer is right, this world is far more evil and crazy than I imagined!"

"Mr. President, although I have already suspected the mutation of the game program, I have not been able to connect the virtual world with the real world, and I have not been able to guess your real purpose. This cannot but be said to be my negligence. Plus you I have been hiding behind the scenes, and my missions are all in charge of astrologers, so I subjectively think that maybe these AI-equipped programs are just loyal to my dragon blood and want to revive my own race. But this time when I entered the game, the dragon The holy girl ate the holy fruit and returned to the game, and I realized that I have been fooled and used by you all the time!"

"Is it really so simple to recast the gate of time and space to break the seal of the dragon clan? The Spider Queen once said to me that the gate of time and space is connected to another world, and its existence and destruction are far earlier than the dragon clan's." The seal, that is to say, there is no necessary connection between the gate of time and space and the seal of the Dragon Clan!"

"So I finally figured out the true meaning of the Nine Great Artifacts and the Gate of Time and Space. In fact, the real purpose of this plan is not to break the seal of the Dragon Clan at all, but to use the Gate of Time and Space to transfer the sealed Dragon Clan to another world." Space is the real world I live in! The reason why I used the name of a mysterious gift to bring the dragon egg to reality and hatch the saint is because you don't know whether it is feasible to travel through time and space, so you despicably use her to Be your test subject!"

"This crazy plan, I thought it was jointly formulated by all the members of the secret guild and the descendants of the surviving dragons on the Hunshi Continent. I was even surprised, since these programs have evolved AI and can derive various Maps and characters, why bother to get me, a player in the real world, to participate in such a big trouble, waste so much time, and make up various plots and tasks, and directly create the gate of time and space to travel to the place you want. Isn’t it better to go to the world? But then the death of the astrologer overturned my judgment. Mr. President, I don’t mind telling you that the astrologer actually died of suicide. His death really made me understand one thing: Behind the secret guild, there has always been a behind-the-scenes black hand. It was this black hand who fabricated the plot about the sacred dragon, and infected it to other programs, the so-called descendants of the dragon, and then this black hand revived The banner of the dragon clan makes the descendants of the dragon clan willingly work for him!"

"The astrologer is very poor. He firmly believed that the blood of the dragon race flowed in his body until he died. He loves his race so much that he even sacrificed his life. As a key member of the secret guild, he is also the vice guild who issued tasks for me. Long, he must have sensed the conspiracy and ambition behind the so-called dragon revival plan, but he didn't know how to convince others, let alone let the sacred dragon be used or even enslaved, so he ran to the cold ice with the determination to die. Furnace, I want to use the power of the furnace to destroy the nine artifacts!"

"Although the astrologer is dead and has the reputation of being a traitor, it is really ironic to compare it with another vice president of the guild, the Gua Shi. Just now, outside the Tower of Repentance, the Gua Shi tried to make me give up the truth, I know that he, like the astrologer, has doubts about the dragon revival plan. The same infected npc, the astrologer would rather die than betray his race, and the hexagram master would rather choose to hold the winner's thigh Blind, he has completely become your dog!"

"Yes, I admit that when the astrologer committed suicide, I only confirmed the existence of the mastermind behind the scenes, but I didn't expect that this person was you, Mr. President, Mr. Yuan, the civil affairs officer. It wasn't until this morning that the grocer approached me to inquire about the About the astrologer, I inadvertently revealed your other identity—the messenger of God, and I really understood all of this. Yeah, what better excuse than God’s will to take advantage of these npcs? And you also know that if you appear directly in the face of a god, it will inevitably arouse suspicion. After all, you are still wearing the cloak of a civil affairs officer. After all, no matter how powerful you are, no matter how evolved you are, you are still an npc in the game world. So you use Claiming to be an envoy, giving orders in the name of guidance, and making people work hard, it's a perfect fit!"

"I think I finally understand why you took a surname for yourself. You are not actually the Yuan whose surname is Yuan, but the source of the source. You regard yourself as the source of all things, the source program that creates everything! I understand it this way Does it make sense, Mr. Yuan?"
