Chapter 101: The Journey of God-making (1)

After Gu Qiufeng took a breath, he concentrated all his attention and reached out to open the door.

Unexpectedly, behind the door appeared a corridor exactly the same as the one behind them, almost making Gu Qiufeng think that he had chosen the wrong answer.

Until Yu Chiang whispered: "Senior, there seems to be a woman in front."

Gu Qiufeng looked up and saw a tall woman standing in the middle of the corridor not far away with her back to them.

There is a door here, and there is also a door behind the woman.

Gu Qiufeng calmed down and recognized the man's identity from his figure, so he explained to Yu Chiang, "That's Lu Jinghong."

"She is...?" Yu Chi'ang had no idea what Gu Qiufeng had experienced in the A-level copy, and was stunned and shocked by the news.

As if she heard her own name, the woman turned around and revealed her face.

No matter how many questions Yu Chiang had, they were all easily answered by the fact that Lu Jinghong and Gu Qiufeng had facial features that were 80% similar.

Gu Qiufeng had carefully planned the scene for his first meeting with Lu Jinghong, but he didn't expect that it would be maliciously disrupted by Xie Xin at the very beginning.

To be honest, he didn't expect to meet Lu Jinghong so unexpectedly here, so he didn't have time to prepare anything. He subconsciously tensed his body to prevent Lu Jinghong from suddenly coming over to beat him.

Unexpectedly, Lu Jinghong just stared at him for a long time, then strode over and stood not far in front of Gu Qiufeng and the others, and said calmly: "When I was a child, I just thought you looked like me. Now it seems that you were born after me, right?"

Lu Jinghong was right.

Gu Qiufeng shrugged indifferently and said, "I was thinking of having a formal meeting, but I didn't expect that my first meeting with Senior Lu would be so hasty."

"In that case, let's get to know each other briefly. My name is Gu Qiufeng..." Gu Qiufeng said, "As for the rest, I think Senior Lu should be able to guess a lot."

Lu Jinghong gritted his teeth and said, "That's true. Your good brother also told me a lot."

Looking closer, Lu Jinghong had many obvious and horrifying scars on her body, and it was obvious that she had just experienced a life-threatening battle not long ago.

Gu Qiufeng couldn't think of anyone else except Xie Xin who could make Lu Jinghong so embarrassed.

Knowing that he was in the wrong, Gu Qiufeng weakened his momentum and asked in a gentle voice, "Why is Ms. Lu here?"

Lu Jinghong glanced at them and said calmly, "I thought you should know that this is the entrance to City A."

"Sure enough." Gu Qiufeng said.

Lu Jinghong glanced at him and suddenly said, "That clown is really you, right?"

"Yes." Gu Qiufeng admitted it generously.

Lu Jinghong was not angry about being deceived. He smiled slightly and said, "The Fool card is a good sign."

Gu Qiufeng coughed.

He thought Lu Jinghong would be very resistant to his existence.

With Xie Xin's obstruction, it would be unreasonable for Lu Jinghong not to vent his anger on him.

But unexpectedly, Lu Jinghong's attitude towards him was very calm, as if he was talking to an old friend whom he hadn't seen for many years.

Akana hasn't officially met Lu Jinghong yet.

Gu Qiufeng was determined to let them meet again.

After all, that was the little princess's obsession.

But now is obviously not a good time.

Gu Qiufeng took the initiative to ask: "Senior Lu, do you want to go to City A with us?"

Lu Jinghong did not comment, but asked: "Xie Xin should have told you that a mark was planted on my soul, right?"

"Yes." Gu Qiufeng said, "But once we enter City A, the mark should no longer work."

Otherwise, Lu Jinghong would not have rushed to the entrance of City A so urgently after escaping death.

I don’t know why, but Gu Qiufeng felt that Lu Jinghong had been waiting here for some time.

As if he could see through Gu Qiufeng's inner thoughts, Lu Jinghong said faintly: "I am indeed waiting for you."

"Ah?" Gu Qiufeng said, "Should I say I'm flattered?"

Lu Jinghong sneered: "Your brother wants to kill me. I think that it may be better if I stay by your side all the time. When we get to City A, Xie Xin will be stronger than he is now without the constraints of the world dimension. I can't beat him."

Gu Qiufeng said seriously: "If you want to take revenge, you must take revenge on him alone. Although Xie Xin is my brother, we are not very familiar with each other."

Lu Jinghong was amused: "You two are not familiar with each other?"

"Yes." Gu Qiufeng said, "At least now I don't know what he is thinking in his heart."

"Okay, that's enough," Lu Jinghong said, "Let's talk about the rest in City A."

Gu Qiufeng suddenly remembered something: "Oh, by the way, a friend of mine made a different choice from me when answering the first question. Is he in danger?"

Lu Jinghong shook his head: "If you mean that he chose his relatives, then he should have been sent out of City A by now."

Hearing that Duan Jiangli was fine, Gu Qiufeng was relieved. He asked Lu Jinghong, "There are only two doors. Where should we go?"

Lu Jinghong said: "Any one is fine."

Gu Qiufeng said "Oh" and based on the principle of proximity, opened the door behind them.

The door behind them closed automatically right after the two of them came in. Now that it was opened again, the scene behind the door was very different.

"Let's go." Lu Jinghong said, "There's nothing good in City A, just don't be disgusted later."

She walked in first, and as soon as she stepped into the door, Lu Jinghong's figure disappeared.

Gu Qiufeng raised his eyebrows, and followed Lu Jinghong into the room with Yu Chiang.

As soon as you enter the door, the surrounding environment changes.

Finally getting rid of the endlessly winding, cramped and dark corridor, Gu Qiufeng felt that the depression in his chest was suddenly dispelled by the suddenly bright environment.

He squinted and looked around.

They were standing next to a ruin. There was no one around them. There was not even a trace of green that represented vitality. All they could see was yellow sand and jagged rocks.

Gu Qiufeng turned his head and subconsciously wanted to joke with the person next to him, but his eyes fell on empty space. Then he realized that Yu Chiang had disappeared after entering the copy.

Gu Qiufeng was startled and subconsciously looked for Yu Chiang.

"He should have been put into your card." Lu Jinghong's voice suddenly came from the sky. Lu Jinghong stood on a higher level of stone, with a nimble figure. After a few jumps, he landed in front of Gu Qiufeng lightly, "Don't you know his identity?"

Gu Qiufeng frowned. Although he was also shocked when he put the ragdoll cat into the card, he should not be able to store anything related to humans except the origin NPC. However, Yu Chi'ang explained that it was his spiritual body, not his real self, so Gu Qiufeng temporarily put his doubts aside. Therefore, when he thought about it now, he really could not explain why Yu Chi'ang was related to his skills.

Lu Jinghong tapped his eyes with his fingertips: "I can see that your companion is not a pure human being. He should be considered a creation of the soul."

The only one who has such skills is Gu Jiu.

Gu Qiufeng said firmly: "As long as Xiaoyu treats me well and treats me as a friend, it doesn't matter what he is."

"Yes." Lu Jinghong said, "There is one more thing. We can't use any skills or props in City A."

That’s why all of Gu Qiufeng’s cards were banned and recycled.

Gu Qiufeng asked: "What does City A do?"

"It's called City A," Lu Jinghong said, "but you can actually think of this place as a super dungeon. The dungeon's boss is X. Players who have lived in City A in the past have only one mission every day - to find a way to kill X, clear this super dungeon, and save all of humanity."

Gu Qiufeng said: "Since there is an ultimate mission in the game, you can't fail to provide some methods and clues, right?"

"Of course there is, but unfortunately, no human player has succeeded so far." Lu Jinghong said, "You are standing on the ruins of an ancient god. This used to be an altar for humans to pray to the gods. Although we cannot use our own skills in this world, we can use the power of the gods to fight against X."

"Where is X?" Gu Qiufeng asked.

Lu Jinghong said: "If you dream, you will dream about it."

Gu Qiufeng said, "Oh," "That is to say, we have to find an ancient god site that is almost the same as the one under our feet, complete the corresponding sacrificial conditions of the site, and then borrow the power of the ancient god. When we reach a certain level, we can go to the dreamland and use the power of the sacrificed god to challenge X, right?"

Lu Jinghong smiled bitterly and said, "Now that you put it like that, it seems really easy."

Gu Qiufeng asked, "Will there be side effects to the sacrifice?"

"There are a total of ten gods here. In addition to X, there are several beings with relatively neutral positions." Lu Jinghong said briefly, "But every time we worship a god, we will become his believers accordingly. These gods are actually certain high-dimensional beings equivalent to X, but their positions are relatively neutral. We can't say whether they are good or bad, and the so-called neutral position is not necessarily a good thing for humans. At the same time, they will continue to assimilate us, and subtly make us forget about humanity, desires, joys and sorrows, until we completely give up our human identity and become monsters in the game."

"It sounds a bit like mental pollution. Are you sure this method really works?" Gu Qiufeng smacked his lips.

Gu Qiufeng felt that his skills might have some mysterious connection with the method of passing City A, but at this time he had no factual basis. It was just an unreasonable guess that suddenly came to his mind, and he had no way to completely explain the details to Lu Jinghong.

Gu Qiufeng continued, "And even if we overcome the spiritual pollution, successfully perform the sacrifice, and obtain the help of the so-called higher-dimensional existence, does it really mean that we can definitely defeat X?"

Lu Jinghong raised his eyes and looked at him.

Gu Qiufeng: "...Nothing, let's try it first. Since this is an ancient god site, we should be able to offer sacrifices, right? Do you know the conditions for the sacrifice?"

Lu Jinghong carefully examined the debris on the ground and recalled: "It should be a two-faced statue."

"Sure enough." Gu Qiufeng said softly.

Although he couldn't summon NPCs from the cards, he could play with the corresponding cards at will.

Gu Qiufeng took out a double-sided phoenix card and asked, "Is this it?"
