Above the gray fog

"In this entire city of eclipse, there are ten buildings that serve as arenas, and there are ten defenders in total. If you defeat these ten defenders, you can become the agent." The man in the suit continued to explain, "The so-called The arena is not necessarily a battle, but one must follow the rules of the arena keepers and win the arena set by them. Everyone has different rules. Victory will be recognized by the capital, and failure will lead to death. Of course , if you have a chance to be resurrected, you can challenge again. As you can see, all creatures in the Lost City can duel with each other. If you win, you can get the chance of resurrection of others. If others only have the last chance of resurrection, then they Everyone can duel once a day. The person being challenged can not participate in a duel within a year regardless of winning or losing. If he has not participated in a duel within a year, he will be forced to enter the ring after being challenged. "

"By the way, the resurrection opportunity can not only be used for resurrection, but also can be used as currency to exchange for some things, including various resources, materials, and eclipse."

Lin Shan's eyes flashed with light, "Is there any fairy food?"

"There are all kinds of colors." The man in the suit nodded affirmatively.

"According to what you said, those agents of the Faded Ones are probably all over the Void. What is their purpose?"

"They have no specific purpose, agents, and are in compliance with God's will. All they pursue is eclipse."

"What is eclipse?"

"Let everything in the world lose its color. Losing color involves too much."

"In other words, if you become a representative of something, your thoughts will be changed?"

"This is a gift from God. The God of Fading will only choose the right person. No matter what your current thoughts are, please remember that this is the place where agents are selected. You will eventually thank God and become qualified Fading people. , Of course, it may also be the agent." The man in the suit said slowly, "If you don't make changes, the creatures who don't want to be the agent will not be able to leave the city of eclipse."

Lin Shan's expression did not change and he took the initiative to ask, "We have just defeated the challenger, so we should all have an extra chance to be resurrected now. Where is the arena?"

"I am one of the champions. Do you want to challenge me?" The man in the suit bowed slightly, showing a hint of courtesy and respect, "I'm always here for you."

"I'll try it first." Before Lin Shan could speak, Sisi stood up.

"Challenge me to a duel." The man in the suit said, "There is no time limit to challenge the challenger. You can do it at any time. The challenger also has levels. I am the new challenger. Come on, I look forward to your performance."

Sisi said a little embarrassedly, "I want to... duel with you..."

The next second, Lin Shan watched Sisi and the man in the suit disappear from sight.

"You are so brave. You dare to challenge the challenger just after arriving in the Eclipse City."

"She is using a resurrection opportunity to test the waters. People like this are often the first to get results. There is no doubt that she is an opponent that cannot be underestimated."

"There's no need to flatter yourself. Waiting here must be all with the idea of ​​tricking the newbies. People like them won't treat us as opponents."

…

Lin Shan sat in front of the counter, listening to the whispers of the people next to him, and waited there for more than two hours.

Finally, as the space in front of her fluctuated, Sisi appeared again.

Her face looked extremely ugly at the moment.

Lin Shan had already guessed the result by looking at her expression.

"The arena information cannot be disclosed to others. This is against the rules." The man in the suit reminded.

"Failed?" Lin Shan asked.

Sisi nodded, "Do you want to try it?"

"Try it." Lin Shan looked at the man in the suit. The chance of resurrection is an opportunity to try. At least he must know the content and difficulty first.

"Tell me." The man in the suit looked at Lin Shan.

"I want to... duel with you." Although it felt weird, I had to say it.

The surrounding scenery began to distort and deform, until he came to a completely unfamiliar space.

The man in the suit stands in the center of the space, his body seemingly blending into the surrounding void.

He said to Lin Shan: "This is my arena - the maze of no return."

"The rules are very simple," the man in the suit continued to explain, "You will enter a maze built by emotions. The maze is filled with light balls representing various emotions, such as anger, sadness, fear, joy, etc. Your task is to find and Touching these light balls will give you a strong emotional impact. Each time you experience it, you will get an emotional fragment. When you collect all the emotional fragments and return to the original path, you will pass the level."

"However, remember, if you cannot bear the pressure of these emotions, your mind will collapse and this maze game will fail. Now, are you ready?"

Lin Shan nodded, indicating that he was ready.

The man in the suit nodded slightly, "I wish you good luck."

Then he disappeared in place. "

Lin Shan looked at the so-called maze ahead.

The maze is less than a kilometer long and has a square shape. The entire layout can even be seen from the outside.

It was definitely not as simple as what he saw. If it was really simple, Sisi would not have failed.

Lin Shan stepped into the maze.

The first thing that caught the eye was a ball of light emitting deep blue light.

He took a deep breath and reached out to touch it.

Suddenly, a wave of sadness swept over him. He seemed to hear the cries of his past relatives and felt the pain of losing a loved one.

Lin Shan shook his head and tried to put these emotions aside. He successfully obtained the first memory fragment.

After passing through the winding route and making many circles, he encountered another red light ball more than ten minutes later. After absorbing it, the angry emotion was like a volcanic eruption. He almost lost control and punched the surrounding void.

Lin Shan successfully overcame the angry emotion again and obtained the second fragment.

As he went deeper, Lin Shan gradually felt tired. Every time he touched a new light ball, he had to experience emotional baptism again and again.

His emotional fluctuations became more and more intense.

Finally, after touching a ball of light radiating dark light, Lin Shan felt unprecedented despair.

This light ball brought him not only emotional torture, but also an indescribable sense of emptiness, which made him feel that all his efforts were in vain and made his will begin to waver.

After standing there for more than ten minutes, Lin Shan recovered.

After receiving the fragment, Lin Shan continued to move forward. At this time, his mind was already filled with the emotional remnants brought by various light balls.

Under repeated shocks, he even felt that his consciousness was becoming blurred.

After walking for an unknown amount of time and absorbing another ball of light, his legs softened and he knelt on the cold ground.

He closed his eyes, and the ocean of emotions overwhelmed his consciousness.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself back in the hall, and the man in the suit stood in front of him. His expression was calm, as if he had expected this result.

"Failed?" Xisi's voice appeared in his ears.

"Well, it's a bit inexplicable." Lin Shan nodded, his voice was steady, but his eyes could not hide the confusion.

Xisi agreed, "I'm almost the same."

"Do you two want to continue? You have no chance of resurrection now. If you fail again, you will face death." The man in the suit asked.

"It's really a cage-like place." Lin Shan looked at the man in the suit, "I want to exchange for golden fairy food. How many resurrection opportunities do I need?"

"Ten resurrection opportunities for one or two." The man in the suit said.
