Chapter 19 Chapter 19 “He said he wanted to go to Sunflower Valley to borrow…
Without Sur watching, Amuruo lay on the sofa with his body tilted, completely devoid of his elegance, like an old mercenary ruffian.
The world is about to end again, but Amuruo is not panicked. His eyes are full of the helplessness of a middle-aged man who has experienced many vicissitudes of life.
After obtaining the key to the Green Sand City library, Xia Xifeng read many books on prophecy. Based on the content of the books, he modified the game plot he knew as much as possible to make it more like the Riddler, retaining only the most basic meaning.
That is, "the rules are distorted, the outer gods descend; the solitary sun soars in the sky, and the end of the world begins."
Amuruo raised an eyebrow: "In this doomsday, will the gods also die?"
Xia Xifeng nodded.
Amuruo laughed heartily a few times: "Okay."
Xia Xifeng broke out in a cold sweat: "Mr. Amuruo, the world is about to end, where can we go?"
Amuruo smiled and said, "Many times before, only the creatures on earth suffered. Sometimes the gods watched coldly, and sometimes the gods even instigated the doomsday. This time, everyone will die together. Isn't that great?"
Xia Xifeng said seriously: "No matter what others do, I like this world and I don't want the end to come."
Players are unwilling to even accept the virtual doomsday plot in the game, and contribute countless hairs and small amounts of money to protect the world in the game, not to mention that he has traveled through time.
Amuruo sighed. "Don't be so serious. I'm just complaining. If you saved the world more than a dozen times in a year and occasionally had to go on a business trip to the mirror world, you would be like me."
Xia Xifeng was dumbfounded.
The mirror world is a very traditional "parallel time and space". Although it is the official setting of "Wonderland Fantasy", the game officials have not used it yet.
Players speculate that when the main storyline of the game ends and the second part of "Fantasy of Wonderland" starts, it should use the setting of a parallel world, or simply use the "world restart" that many long comic novels are tired of using.
Is there a parallel world in the dream world? Did Mr. Amuruo and Mr. Soul save a parallel universe?
Xia Xifeng was shocked: "Are prophets and guardians so tired?" He was a little worried about his future work life.
Amuruo laughed: "That's how tiring it is. Now that Su Er has been captured by fate, it's your and Qin Lang's turn to be tired, hahahaha."
Amuruo patted his thigh and sat up straight. "No need to say more. Just let me know when the future you see is about to arrive. Talk less and do more. This is the only way to avoid being targeted by 'fate'. Make a list of the potions you need and have Damon find them. I'll keep an eye on the dwarf caravan, don't worry."
He pinched his brows and managed to regain his composure in front of outsiders: "They don't dare to sneak into Green Sand City directly, which proves that I still have some deterrent effect on them. Let Leo and Pereira remove the power suppression spell. Be smart. You and Qin Lang hide well. Your safety is the most important."
Xia Xifeng nodded vigorously.
He and Qin Lang are still small shrimps and cannot withstand the storms.
Amuruo deliberately separated a strand of his mental energy to carefully observe the dwarf caravan that was preparing to meet him, but he did not find anything unusual.
He did not doubt Xia Xifeng's prediction, but felt even more troubled.
Forget it, in the end of the world where even the innate gods will die, it is normal to have such hidden abilities, otherwise they would have been eradicated long ago.
Amuruo couldn't detect anything unusual about the dwarf caravan, but the hidden shadows within them might reveal Xia Xifeng's extraordinary abilities. He had Damon lead a team of guards to escort Xia Xifeng directly from the teleportation array to Sunflower Valley, and then from there back to the Knights' Territory.
"Complete the teleportation array as soon as possible. Cost is not a problem." Amuruo urged, "The situation is urgent. Don't refuse my and Suer's help again."
Xia Xifeng returned home sweating profusely, holding the large-value material approval slip.
He acknowledged Qin Lang's quirk. It was really hard to pay off favors.
Xia Xifeng not only brought back a large amount of material approval documents, but also was given two magic communicators.
The functions of these two magical communicators were very simple, only capable of positioning and sending text messages. However, as long as one was in the dream world, even in different subspace realms, the communicators would not lose connection.
Su Er did not give the magic device to Xia Xifeng and Qin Lang before because he knew that young people did not like to be controlled by their elders at any time, so he wanted to modify the function of the magic device before giving it to the two of them.
The end of the world was approaching, and Su Er was meditating again, and no one knew when he would come out. For the sake of their lives, this privacy issue could not be taken care of for the time being.
Xia Xifeng: [Mr. Suer suddenly had a feeling yesterday morning and went into seclusion, meditating and waiting for the 'prophecy'. He can't be disturbed while meditating, so we have to wait for him to emerge. Mr. Amuruo said that Mr. Suer was tricked. We are not included in the game's "history," and this celebration is bound to be in turmoil. There's no record of us in the game background! The officials are so lazy!]
Qin Lang: [By the time the game launched, the Dream World had already been largely destroyed, and records of the period before the apocalypse are scarce. However, the City Lord and Mr. Sur were still alive, and they never mentioned the incident. Perhaps the dwarf caravan didn't cause any trouble, or perhaps they remained unaware of the incident until the very end, treating it as a simple, vicious incident. I've listed the weaknesses of low-level Corrupted monsters. Memorize them when you get back, to avoid being tricked by the smaller monsters.]
Having to face a real enemy so early, Qin Lang couldn't help but talk more.
He always talks a lot about monster hunting and fighting.
Xia Xifeng sighed.
He really doesn't like fighting. Can't the enemies just let him farm and build infrastructure and upgrade technology in peace?
Xia Xifeng patted his face.
Work hard, work hard! Use your passion to race against time against the apocalypse!
Xia Xifeng came back with a team of the most elite half-elf guards in Green Sand City, which scared Leo and Perilla.
Even Pereira was unwilling to believe it. Could the situation really be so bad that even the city lord was nervous?
"First, remove the power-suppressing spell, and then listen together." Xia Xifeng said, "Mr. Amuruo said that if you two work together, you can also use the half-crippled domain."
Pereira: "Half-crippled..."
Leo: "Feng, you imitated the teacher's tone perfectly."
He twisted the bracelet and said listlessly, "Did I make a big mistake?"
Xia Xifeng said, "You haven't made any mistakes yet, you're just being stupid. Isn't one of the functions of friends to punch each other when they're stupid?"
Leo grinned and said, "Yeah."
Pereira took a deep breath: "Let's go and hear what's going on." Pereira appeared calm on the surface, but she was screaming "Ahhhhh" in her heart.
He and Leo have opposite personalities.
Leo appears to be noisy on the surface, but he is actually very calm on the inside; Pereira is only calm on the surface, but is actually easily panicked and gets stuck in a rut.
Leo wouldn't be fooled by Pereira's expression.
He held his good brother's hand and comforted him silently.
Xia Xifeng caught a glimpse of two blond and silver-haired mini princes holding hands out of the corner of his eye, and couldn't help but complain: [When straight men cling to each other, they're even gayer than gay men.]
Qin Lang agreed very much.
The two of them took long strides, leaving their two sticky straight brothers behind to avoid getting goose bumps.
Damon, who had the half-elf guards guarding the door and wanted to hear the first-hand information, quickly quickened his pace and caught up with Xia Xifeng and Qin Lang.
As Xia Xifeng had guessed before, as soon as the little girl Lana heard the effect of the potion, she immediately rushed to drink it.
She was anxious to get the message out.
Relying on potions to suppress her panic, Lana finally explained the details of the caravan's attack.
She followed her father to Green Sand City to watch the excitement. When they were approaching Green Sand City, she was so excited that she couldn't sleep, so she woke her father up to accompany her to watch the moon.
Her father took her up the tree, and they saw not only the bright moon, but also the shadows in the moonlight that looked like wild beasts, biting the heads of the night guards.
This is not the scariest thing.
Lana is very brave, otherwise her father would not dare to let her join the traveling caravan to broaden her horizons.
Traveling caravans often encounter attacks, and Lana has seen blood many times.
But that night, she saw a nightmare more terrifying than death and blood.
Even though her emotions were suppressed by the potion, Lana's voice couldn't help but tremble. "The shadow burrowed into Uncle Tiexu's body like mud. Many threads grew out of Uncle Tiexu's shattered head, sticking together the broken bones and flesh from the ground..."
She leaned over the bed and vomited.
The potion suppressed the emotions, but the body reacted on its own.
Lana wiped her mouth, refused to rest, and continued to describe in detail what she saw and heard, describing how when she climbed up the stone wall and looked back, she saw her father split in half by the shadow, with blood and internal organs spilling all over the ground.
"I'm afraid of my father's death, and I'm even more afraid, even more afraid, to see my father still alive." Lana raised her trembling hands and covered her expressionless face.
Lana and her father, Jim, are the last survivors of the caravan.
Before being swallowed by the scorpion, Lana witnessed her father's death with her own eyes. She should be the only one who survived the caravan.
What was that dwarf caravan that Xia Xifeng saw from afar?
After calming down, Lana remembered the command to activate the ruby brooch.
The ruby brooch not only has a protective function but also can be used to take photos. Lana used it to take many pictures of the scenery, and then when she got home, she injected them into the crystal ball and projected them for her mother and brother.
While escaping, Jim asked his daughter to activate the photo-taking function of the ruby brooch. If they died, he hoped someone would find the ruby brooch and reveal the monster's true identity.
Strangely, the image in the ruby did not reflect the mud monster that Lana mentioned.
The dwarves seemed to be fighting with the air, and then suddenly blood spurted out and limbs were shattered.
The last part of the photo was exactly as Lana said, her father was split in half by the monster that left no image.
In the last moments of his life, Lana's father kept shouting "Run, don't look back."
But Lana still turned back and recorded her father's last appearance before his death, which was extremely miserable.
Damon's scalp tingled.
He was lazy at work and went to watch the dwarf caravan that came from afar before returning to his own post.
The dwarf who had been split in two had spoken to him and asked him which tavern in Greensand had the best wine.
Xia Xifeng fed Lana a bottle of sleeping potion, cleaned the floor, and then they left the bedroom.
They were all silent, with serious expressions.
Leo was the first to speak: "The leader of the dwarf caravan is the friend who made me the axe."
He saw his friend's tragic death in the photo.
Damon rubbed the bristling hairs on his arms vigorously, as if frozen by the cold, and spoke through gritted teeth, "Your leader is also 'alive'. He even asked me if I'd returned home. He said he couldn't stand the crowded city hotels and wanted to take the caravan to Sunflower Valley for some lodging."
Leo stood up suddenly, and a powerful airflow burst out with him as the center.
Xia Xifeng was almost blown away by the air flow, but fortunately Qin Lang pulled him into his arms in time.
Xia Xifeng used his hands and feet to wrap around Qin Lang like an octopus: "Stop! Have you forgotten how fragile I am?! Perilla, Damon, help me!"
When Pereira and Damon came to their senses and hurriedly set up a protective shield, Leo had already restrained his momentum.
He covered his eyes with his hands, as if all the strength in his body had been drained away. He slowly knelt on the ground, tears falling through his fingers.
If they hadn't happened to rescue Lana, he would have agreed to let his dwarf friend stay with him.
