When the master of the Shuming Workshop actually handed over the jade crow, Wei Miao still felt incredible.

Since the other party dares to give it, she dares to accept it.

She took it calmly. It seemed that the owner of the Shuming Workshop was not joking: "This should be a very precious and high-level object. Why..."

The owner of the Pivotal Workshop smiled and said: "Precious, but fragile. To me, it's not worth much. It's just an extra reward for you to pass the hidden ending for the first time."

The hidden ending of the first pass should refer to her finding the basement under the city hall, killing the corpse, and starting the refinement, which led to unexpected events later.

The jade he picked up felt warm to the touch. It was obviously lifeless, but his empty eyes made his heart feel cold.

The master of the Pivotal Workshop leaned back on his chair, crossed his hands, and said with a relaxed expression: "It will take some time to complete the process. During this period, you can ask me questions, although I do not guarantee that I will answer them."

His attitude was alarmingly friendly. It may also be that He was in a good mood at this time and was willing to give alms.

The master of the Shuming Workshop gave him face like this, so Wei Miao would certainly seize the opportunity.

She shook the jade in her hand and asked respectfully: "Can you please introduce this jade crow?"

I only know my origins but not my abilities, and I always feel unsure. She has no shortage of adventurous spirit, but the necessary caution pays off.

"This is... the thing left by the unknown existence that I personally like to name 'Ender'." The master of the Pivotal Workshop saw through her concerns and explained, "In order to get rid of my control, he decisively gave up As a part of itself, these powers and rules condensed into this red jade crow.”

"It is just a solidified dead object at this moment. The jade shell is the embodiment of the 'barrier', and the truly valuable rules and characteristics are wrapped in it."

"The black chain represents a blockade, and once it is attempted to be unlocked, it is likely to trigger the self-destruction of the internal forces."

"Although there is no absolute security in the world, the costs and rewards of breaching defenses need to be weighed."

"The resources required to parse the blockade are a better choice in terms of value than giving them to you directly."

"Specifically, what kind of agglomeration is inside it cannot be determined, and its value is unknown. But I predict that part of His consciousness is hidden in it. This is the most valuable thing, but it cannot be taken by force."

The owner of the Pivotal Workshop said meaningfully: "You can look forward to its possible changes."

Wei Miao understood the reason why the master of the Pivotal Workshop gave it to her. For the master of the Pivotal Workshop, he cannot quickly solve the blockade on it, nor can he guarantee that he can capture the possible consciousness hidden in it.

So he found another way and gave her this ordinary player. In fact, he took the initiative to create an opportunity for Jade Crow to cause trouble.

Compared with the dead silence of a completely defensive posture, the active state is more likely to expose weaknesses.

As for whether to invite you into the urn or lure the wolf into the house, what you need to worry about are the majestic beings hiding behind the scenes.

In other words, she is actually "bait".

But what does she get out of it?

Wei Miao finally felt a sense of urgency. Compared to other players, his level is at the top, but he is far away from being a true powerhouse.

If you have enough strength, many things can be controlled.

Holding such an absolutely high-ranking thing as "Jade Crow" in your hands but being unable to do anything about it is like sitting on a treasure mountain without taking any money.

This is a hot potato, and with danger comes opportunity.

"Actually, all of this is under your control. You just used my hand to facilitate all of this. Without me, there will be another player who triggers the hidden ending." Wei Miao thought for a while and said firmly.

When the abnormality broke out, the master of the Pivotal Workshop appeared here almost instantly and took control of the situation. Other stalwart existences still need time to invest their power, but His incarnation arrived early, and He invested the most power.

In the end, he laid a covering net in secret, and when the existence he named "Ender" was about to escape, he successfully intercepted it, forcing the latter to make a sacrifice.

In addition, He has administrator rights to help her stay in the town. It can be said that He is the host of this dungeon and controls the direction of the dungeon.

Does He really know nothing about the hidden loopholes? What if He deliberately allowed the existence of the corpse ghost woman?

He is the director of this great drama! And she plays the role of "introducer". This character can be replaced by any player.

Sooner or later someone will discover the basement, and sooner or later a ghost hunter will kill the wights.

All this must happen, as if destined.

Since he went to all the trouble to set up this game, he must want to get something from the ender.

Perhaps He had already obtained it, so he handed over the Jade Crow to her.

It's hard to tell whether he really thinks the jade crow is troublesome, or whether he thinks the jade crow's value is not important enough to him.

I don't know why, in Wei Miao's heart, His calmness is more awe-inspiring than all the power that destroys heaven and earth.

The master of the Pivotal Workshop nodded and said: "Being able to recognize one's own position is a valuable quality. As you said, except that the power he carries is beyond my calculation, the rest are all within my expectations."

"It's okay to tell you about this game." The master of the Pivotal Workshop seemed to have plenty of time and was willing to explain it to her.

When Wei Miao looked directly into his eyes, she found a waterfall of dark blue symbols washing down from his eyes. Invisibly, He is making His spoken finishing touches.

The master of the Pivot Workshop raised his eyes and annotated somewhere in the night sky: "The Eye of Migration, one of the wonders of the void."

Wei Miao followed his gaze and suddenly found that a silver galaxy mixed with rainbow light appeared in the distant sky at some point. It was fantastic and beautiful, slowly rotating with a certain point as the core.

"A huge invisible inert energy is absorbed and rotates around it, and any matter and rules are distorted in it. Its core has been sinking and floating along the energy vortex for billions of years, thus forming a regular floating and sinking cycle."

"When the core rises to the critical point, it enters the alternation period. At this time, the restraining force of the core suddenly changes, and most of the matter outside the vortex escapes. The escaping mass forms a powerful energy tide, erupting in all directions."

"Its destructive power is what the extraordinary people in this plane call the death tide."

The master of the Pivot Workshop obviously knew that Wei Miao had read Hatu's notes and knew what the Eye of Migration and the death tide were, so he simply added some knowledge.

"The fate and rules near the Eye of Migration are in chaos. The Ender descended into the Eye of Migration, and its body was completely consumed on the way down, leaving only the 'spark' wrapped in will and a little power."

"Because of its small size, its strong ability to self-block information, and the chaos of the surrounding rules and fate during the Eye of Migration's alternation period, His arrival was calm and could be called an extremely successful infiltration."

Hearing this, Wei Miao began to feel something was wrong.

Who exactly is the unknown existence that can be judged as a game loophole?

She thought it was a hostile force of the Masquerade, a connection.

The reason why it is called a connection-whether it is from the knowledge of greatness from the prying of the scholar or from witnessing their struggle with one's own eyes, it shows that the Masquerade has many great beings.

But as a hostile force, how could it be an "unknown existence"? So many beings know nothing about Him, and "Ender" is more like a temporary code name than a noble name.

Recalling the wording of the system analysis...

Could it be that the unknown existence does not belong here?

It should be said that it does not belong to the entire void!

I worked all night every weekend and only just finished coding it now.
