More than ten years ago, Yan Ke cleared an unnamed bizarre game. More than ten years later, the bizarre monsters from the game world suddenly descended into the real world, and the powerful Yan Ke ...
Shenlong Nightmare Dragon 9
Due to misjudgment, the people who were separated from the knights landed in an extremely desolate cemetery. At this time, Yan Ke could see the true appearance of the cemetery. Those bright lights turned out to be faint will-o'-the-wisp. Due to the long distance, the green light of the will-o'-the-wisp was not conspicuous. When the griffin landed, the huge airflow activated the movement of the will-o'-the-wisp.
Will-o'-the-wisp fires sometimes scatter and sometimes gather. If they were simply flashing, no one would take them seriously.
But a small cluster of will-o'-the-wisp accidentally touched a tree, and the tree suddenly caught fire and made crackling sounds.
Nanyu's curious hand was pulled in by the quick-eyed and quick-handed Li Heng. The cluster of ghost fire hit the carriage, making a puffing sound.
Perhaps due to the special type of wood used in the carriage or other reasons, the will-o'-the-wisp did not ignite the carriage but went out instead.
But Yan Ke outside the carriage was not feeling well, because the flapping of the griffin's wings created airflow, and the ghost fire suddenly fell on the griffin in a strange posture. The griffin's wings suddenly caught fire and could not be extinguished. The griffin roared in pain, and then the carriage began to shake.
"What should we do? If something happens to the griffin, we will be completely trapped here." The speaker was the knight who had always been taciturn. He did not expect such a thing to happen.
At this time, Meng Yueyue threw out a piece of talisman paper, and then a waterfall-like curtain of water fell from the sky, and the fire on the griffin was completely extinguished.
However, Yan Ke, the knight, and the four griffins looked particularly embarrassed. The armor they were wearing was soaked, and the armor looked even heavier.
The griffin's feathers were wet, and everyone had no choice but to move the car farther away, at least away from the cemetery. However, since the landing location was in the center of the cemetery, several people lost their way. In short, everyone was lost in the cemetery.
In desperation, they had to find a relatively flat place to light a bonfire, intending to give the griffin's feathers enough time to dry before continuing their journey.
The players' clothes were also wet at this time, and they took turns to dry their clothes. Yan Ke and the knight took off their armor, and Yan Ke also took off his helmet. In order to avoid being exposed, he used a camouflage spell. In the eyes of others, he just had an ordinary face and his hair turned pink.
That's right, this is the detail Yan Ke obtained after observing many people. People here don't have black hair, and the most common color is pink. Although he thinks pink is not suitable for a macho man like him, the situation requires him to adapt.
The hair of the knights on the opposite side is even more special, it is emerald green and very eye-catching, and their lining is also silver-gray, which makes the eye-catching hair not so abrupt.
Yan Ke helped the knight clean the water off the griffin and held up a torch to dry its feathers.
Because the griffin was domesticated and raised by humans, it was very obedient and did not go crazy at all when the torch approached, which made Yan Ke instantly fall in love with this majestic yet obedient and docile animal.
On the other side, Fang Yu and others were also watching with envy. This griffin was simply the beast of their dreams.
As a result, he had not stayed there for long before being dragged away by Li Heng and others to clean up the carriage.
I didn't expect that apart from the will-o'-the-wisp fire, there was really nothing dangerous happening in the cemetery.
"I didn't expect that after preparing myself mentally for such a long time, I would end up in this place." The speaker was An Qing, one of the survivors.
The only person she knew here at this moment was Nanyu, but because Nanyu had previously said that he was weird, which brought serious psychological trauma to An Qing, she did not dare to approach Nanyu and others at all.
If she had known that even the missing Yan Ke was a strong man who could survive among the dead, she would have just felt helpless, weak and pitiful. The two people who were sucked away by the wind were right in front of her. If the knight had not blocked the window frame with the sword in his hand, she would probably have been doomed.
An Qing is the newest player in this group. The others seem to be accustomed to death. They take this rare opportunity to relax. An Qing is the only one in this group who is still full of fear about what is about to happen.
The bonfire here brings warmth and light, but it is still pitch black outside the bonfire.
Yan Ke asked the knight: "Is the destination still far away?"
The knight shook his head. "The knight who showed us the way was swept away by the strong wind. Now we are lost too. We can either wait until tomorrow to go back, or wait and fly around aimlessly, which is just a waste of time. I think we should go back and explain the reason first."
"Won't you be punished?" Yan Ke asked, pretending to be unaware of the situation.
"No, monster attacks are random. We didn't encounter the monster this time, which means the monster may not have appeared in that town."
Yan Ke nodded: "Actually, it's a good thing."
The knight looked back at him and said, "Thank you for pulling me into the carriage just now, otherwise I would have been blown away by the sudden gust of wind."
"You're welcome. After all, we are together." Yan Ke looked at Nan Yu and the others and said, "These people were hired by His Majesty the King to kill monsters. If they succeed, we won't have to be attacked and harassed by monsters anymore."
Yan Ke observed the knight's expression and words, trying to find some clues from them, but he did not ask directly, for fear of exposing himself. However, he made the right bet. The castle was so big, and there must be tens of thousands, or even more, of knights in the Knights Templar.
It is impossible for them to know every one of them, and with the invasion of monsters, the number of knights who die cannot be small even if it is designed according to the plot.
Is that monster related to the thick black fog that came out of the black and white world? Or is that thick fog a hidden quest?
Time passed minute by minute, the griffin's feathers dried, and the carriage was cleaned by Fang Yu and others. They would no longer be in a hurry to travel tonight, and could only rest where they were, even in a cemetery. Since nothing unusual had happened, there was no problem in staying here.
Everyone huddled together by the bright and warm campfire, spending their first night in this dungeon world.
The knight was on night shift. Yan Ke told the knight that he would take over the shift in two hours, so he closed his eyes and took a rest.
I thought I would spend a peaceful night without any incident.
Yan Ke heard a voice before she opened her eyes.
"A long time ago, in a place called Dreamland, a story was born that will be passed down through the ages."
Yan Ke opened his eyes hazily and found himself standing in a void of space.
"At that time, the Dream Kingdom was prosperous, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, leading a rich life. However, their great king fell in love with a man who was the incarnation of an evil dragon, and gave birth to a little prince with him using a magic fruit."
Yan Ke listened to the voice and shouted, "Where is this? Is there anyone here?"
The voiceover continues.
"His Majesty the King and his lover were very happy and invited magicians from all over the kingdom to bless their little prince. They hoped that their child would grow up healthy and happy and become an excellent king."
At this moment, Yan Ke's perspective changed. He struggled hard and stretched out his hand, only to find that his hand had turned into a baby's arm, soft and harmless. Then he saw two familiar faces.
The king transformed by Li Heng and the evil dragon queen transformed by Fang Yu, one wore a crown and the other had fairly majestic horns on his head.
"However, His Majesty the King forgot to invite one person. That person is an evil magician. He is very petty. When he learned that His Majesty the King had invited all the top magicians in the country to the palace to pray for his son, the evil magician had evil thoughts."
Yan Ke was lying in the crib listening to the voice-over. This story felt both strange and familiar.
Just then Yan Ke was picked up.
The perspective slowly shifted to the palace.
Many magicians in magic robes saluted them.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Good Day."
Yan Ke's tender baby face showed a puzzled expression.
"What's going on?" But the sound that came out was the childish language of a baby, babbling non-stop.
Fang Yu leaned over and patted Yan Ke and said, "Damn, did I travel through time?" Fang Yu stood there in a daze and also heard the voice-over.
Li Heng also lowered his head and said, "Let's take a look at the situation. What's going on?"
A voice-over appears: "The magicians offer their blessings to the prince."
An Qing was the first to step forward and said, "Your Highness will surely be a man of outstanding character, wisdom and bravery, and will grow up to be an excellent king."
Li Heng had to cooperate and turned around. Then he said, "Yes, I like your blessing."
At this time, Meng Yueyue, who had transformed into a magician, stepped forward and said, "The prince must be an unparalleled genius." Then Meng Yueyue retreated back to the team.
"Yeah, not bad."
Li Heng actually has no lines at all. He just speaks his lines according to the voice-over that suits the current situation. He has no autonomy at all.
Li Heng looked around and found two people missing, one was Nan Yu and the other was Mu Ning.
At this moment, a human figure suddenly appeared.
The voiceover also said: "The evil wizard came uninvited and brought a curse with him."
Nan Yu stood in the middle of the palace in a black robe and said, "His Royal Highness will grow up as predicted by other magicians, but he will fall in love with his enemy and die at the age of twenty."
At this time, the palace was in an uproar. Except for these few players, everyone was whispering to each other, saying something like the magician's blessing prophecy would come true and the prince's fate was tragic.
Everyone realized that this familiar plot and the sudden appearance of the evil wizard, isn't this the story of Sleeping Beauty in Andersen's novel?
The voice-over continued: "The evil wizard cursed the prince to die for no reason at the age of twenty, which made the queen, who was a dragon, extremely angry. She wanted to kill the evil wizard who was talking nonsense on the spot. At this moment, the beautiful fairy godmother appeared. She was about to send her ultimate blessing and resolve this farcical crisis."
