Chapter 47 The Lost Ancient Country (End)

Gu Qiufeng asked: "What should we do next?"

"Well," Arcana said, "You can do whatever you want. I have detained the leader of the Starlight Circus. If you want to catch them all in one fell swoop, you can directly issue orders to the circus in his name."

Gu Qiufeng: “?”

This is too fast.

"Actually, after I recovered my memory yesterday, I remembered the game's mechanics." Arcana said, "Although the mechanics of each dungeon are updated and changed, it just so happens that the dungeon you participated in is a replica of the mechanics of the prototype dungeon that Shenlei and the others participated in."

Gu Qiufeng said: "Maybe, it's simple."

They only need to worry about a portion of the vampires who are disguised as their companions.

But what Shenlei and his men need to kill are themselves and their companions.

Gu Qiufeng suddenly felt that there was the shadow of the Divine Tears on Arcana.

Even though he had never seen this human player, he could still see the other party's amazing brilliance from Guan Ciying, the notes and Arcana's words and deeds.

Arcana said: "Osvid was tricked by me and he is currently unaware of the situation. How do you want to deal with him?"

"If he's useless, let him out." Gu Qiufeng said, "He is one of the bloody leaders and has killed countless humans like me. No matter from which aspect, I tend to let him pay with his life."

Arcana nodded.

After eliminating the barriers between the players and the BOSS's hostile relationship, Gu Qiufeng suddenly discovered that Arcana's mental age was actually not that old.

She was lucky enough to meet God's Tears when she was young and needed to be nurtured the most. Thus, a monster child was raised to have complete human values. However, Arcana did not receive a systematic education. What she learned was only a part of what God's Tears gave her.

So Arcana is smart and powerful, but on the other hand, he shows childish innocence and calmness.

"Shenlei, I have taught you very well." Gu Qiufeng finally couldn't help but sigh, "I did have some concerns about my similarity to my predecessors before."

He could understand Guan Ciying's emotions, but he did not accept them.

Gu Qiufeng is an adult with a complete personality. He cannot tolerate being treated as a container for someone else's inheritance. His flesh, blood, soul, and thoughts belong to him alone. No one can force him to bear anything.

What he thinks is himself.

So at the beginning, Gu Qiufeng had some kind of resistance to the Divine Tears.

"But now I feel that she is a blessing to mankind," said Gu Qiufeng.

Arcana blinked at him, obviously not quite understanding.

Gu Qiufeng coughed lightly and said, "I heard from Guan Ciying that your ability should be quite special, and that you are the creation of X or something. If the dungeon is cleared by then, you should be able to stop the dungeon from running and keep me here temporarily, right?"

Akana nodded, "Okay."

*

Two more days passed.

The palace issued a notice.

The Starlight Circus will perform at the Palace on Saturday morning at 10am.

At that time, Queen Arcana will open the palace and all residents of the capital can come and watch.

Gu Qiufeng guessed that this should be the vampire's original goal, to sneak into the palace in the name of a circus and assassinate Arcana.

Therefore, this critical juncture is the best time to catch them all in one fell swoop.

As for the best way to identify vampires——

Naturally, Gu Qiufeng, the human inspection machine, was to be disguised and stand at the door to distribute circus tickets to the residents coming in.

Once he senses the dark power, he will immediately call on Arcana, who is also in disguise, to eliminate the vampires.

Even if there are sudden attacks from the vampires, they will be dealt with quickly.

After all, Arcana should be the ceiling of the dungeon's combat power.

[Boss Gu just shut down the live broadcast for one day, why do I feel like the world has changed???]

[Help! The scene where Boss Gu instructs the BOSS to fight the NPC is too magical]

[What's so magical about this? I've seen this before. Isn't Feng He's fighting monsters fierce enough? ]

[That makes sense...]

[Tears in my eyes, this seems to be the fastest way to clear D City with the least casualties in history, right? ]

[The people of City D are now in the palace for protection, and Boss Gu is at the door asking Arcana to help him kill the monsters. These players should be considered to have won without any effort, right? The rewards they get won't be much. If I were a person from City D, I would hate Boss Gu to death. Isn't this similar to snatching supplies to pass the level?]

[The above person probably hasn't been to D City. I was originally a player in D City, and later I upgraded my qualifications by accumulating dungeon points. To be honest, the people in D City are all self-sufficient players, and they don't care about the props rewarded by clearing dungeons... They don't make a living by dungeons, and their only wish in the world dungeon is to stay alive.]

[Damn, it's a bit sad to say this. If Boss Gu takes Arcana away, the world dungeon should be closed, right? Will the players in City D be better off then? ]

[Although Boss Gu is indeed very powerful, closing the world dungeon is... too advanced. I feel that even A-level players don’t have the ability to do this.]

Gu Qiufeng took a glance and a prompt of “Clear the copy” popped up on his task panel.

It should be that all the vampires have been wiped out.

Gu Qiufeng walked to the door and said to Arcana who was wiping the sickle: "Thank you for your hard work. Our mission is accomplished."

Arcana smiled slightly, "I am very happy to be able to help my fellow tribesmen of God's Tears."

Gu Qiufeng paused and said, "Akana, actually..."

After his conversation with Akana, Gu Qiufeng no longer addressed her as "Your Majesty".

This is what the Arcana requires.

Although she is a monster princess in a copy, Arcana seems to have an obsession with the freedom and equality that are unique to humans, which is even reflected in the way others address her.

"Those players should not have left yet." Gu Qiufeng said, "Do you want to go and meet them? You saved them."

The smile on Arcana's face faded a little.

Soon, she shook her head firmly: "No. Even if I stand on the same side as you, I am not a human after all. What's more, before I recovered my memory, I did the same thing to you as those monsters did."

"This is not salvation, this is atonement."

Arcana said, clutching his chest.

"It's the monster's confession."

Seeing that she had her own ideas, Gu Qiufeng didn't say anything more.

When the players were almost ready, Arcana reached out and grabbed the air next to him.

Clearly, to the naked eye, there has been no obvious change in the world.

But Gu Qiufeng felt that Arcana had captured something subtle.

For an instant, something in time and space seemed to be suspended because Arcana grabbed it.

The ups and downs of the glimmer are all settled in the brief pause.

Gu Qiufeng said: "Is this the inner world you created?"

It turns out that Arcana can create a world of her own in the dungeon. This world is not interfered with by the dungeon rules and Origin X, so when the dungeon ends, Gu Qiufeng can still stay here because of Arcana's will.

Arcana is X's creation, she can destroy or create.

Is this also true for X?

Perhaps, X is the other side of the Creator?

Gu Qiufeng was distracted. Without the constraints of the copy rules, he could use his skills normally.

So, when Gu Qiufeng placed a blank card against Arcana's eyes, a halo suddenly emanated from the center of the card.

He used the "storage" skill.

Take the Eye of God's Tear from Arcana and store it in your own card.

Arcana's eyes gradually returned to normal. The previous inhuman elements were only due to the period when the God's Tear skill was attached.

She has a pair of emerald green eyes, like the thorns of a rose.

Almost at the moment when Gu Qiufeng's skill was activated, Arcana took a breath and impatiently placed his fingertips on the center of the card.

Gu Qiufeng handed the card to the girl and asked her to hold it carefully in both hands.

“Divine Tears…”

"Lu Jinghong..."

Arcana spoke softly, word by word.

"Let's say goodbye...okay?"

Her voice was as low as a rose bent by dew.

But until the light on the card faded, Arcana still did not receive the response he was waiting for.

She thought a lot about what her final farewell to Divine Tears would be like.

The only thing Arcana hadn't considered was that her knight had long since died in her buried memories.

No goodbyes.

The Knight is dead.

Big tears welled up from Arcana's eyes.

After becoming the queen, she has been trying her best to control her emotions.

The king is majestic and does not show his joy on his face.

But now, she is not a monarch, but just a little girl who has lost her best friend.

The monster girl was simply crying loudly for her human friends.

Gu Qiufeng stood aside.

Suddenly, a field of fiery red roses floated into his vision.

"Arkana."

Gu Qiufeng hurriedly said, "Don't cry, look up."

Arcana subconsciously raised his head as he said.

Suddenly, a flurry of scattered red rose petals appeared in the emerald green pupils.

This world is controlled by her.

Arcana does not create roses here.

so……

She murmured: "Lu Jinghong, you are..."

"Want to say hello to me?"

A petal gently fell on her nose, and the fragrant scent suddenly exploded in front of Arcana.

The astonishment at this moment was like the tears of God that Arcana encountered for the first time.

In a trance, Arcana seemed to hear the voice of an old friend.

"Follow the player next to you and go out and take a look, Arcana."

"You should be free, passionate, and unfettered, my monster princess."

As the words ended, the rose shattered along with the card in Arcana's hand.

Arcana stared blankly at everything that disappeared in an instant.

Shenlei used up the last bit of his power to bid her a formal farewell.

"Want to go out?"

The man's voice brought Arcana back to his senses.

Arcana wiped away his tears and said forcefully, “Yes!”

I want to see Shenlei’s fellow tribesmen and the world she loves.

I want to learn what freedom is.
