Chapter 283 The Burning Expedition: The World's Cemetery
Moreover, Tu Lan is now in her original size, and Yu Xunge lying down is not even as long as the sole of Tu Lan's foot! When she stood in front of Yu Xunge, she couldn't block her at all.
Yu Xunge stood unsuspectingly under Tu Lan's dragon buttocks, making his appearance to everyone present.
She awkwardly raised her hand and waved at the Holy Grail North Year, revealing an extremely awkward smile. After laughing for two seconds, worried that her smile wasn't bright enough, she forced herself to smile again.
In the end, it was Xue Dui who came to her rescue. He tossed a domino to Yu Xunge: "Come find me in two days, and I will answer your questions about Polar Night City."
With the dominoes in hand, Tu Lan stopped joking around with her elders. After saying goodbye to them in a hurry, she and Yu Xunge flew back to Tu Lan's Dragon Tooth Nest together.
Tu Lan shrunk in size and flew onto Yu Xunge's shoulder. The latter couldn't wait to take out the "Six of Bamboo" and "Eight of Bamboo" and put them together with the "Seven of Bamboo".
In an instant, the three dominoes snapped together.
A series of system notifications rang in her mind.
[Player has collected a key item related to fate]
[Congratulations to the player who has started the destiny quest - The Burning Crusade!]
[You will encounter the truth of the world]
This is an invasion from another world, and also a game, except you are not the players; your world is merely a prop.
And you and your world are nothing more than a speck of dust on a prop.
The fate of Earth is like a candle flickering in the wind.
Will you shatter your shackles and carve a bloody path for your world, or will you respect fate, abandon your foolish passion, and use the World Graveyard as a bargaining chip to bow down to the 12 Holy Races of Zeran in exchange for power and protection? The key is in your hands. Now, you are ahead of everyone else, and you have more choices than others.
[Destiny Quest: The Burning Crusade]: Using the World Graveyard Key as proof, you can consume one World Tomb as a ticket to enter the higher-dimensional world battlefield and fight for your world and race. The world battlefield opens at 00:00 on the 1st and 15th of each month. (Acceptable)
The three dominoes connected together also revealed item information.
[World Cemetery - Oak Owl - 678]: World Cemetery - Key★
Necessary credentials for entering the world battlefield
[Skill] Rookie on the Table: When entering the World Battlefield, you (and your pet) can unlock a divinely bestowed talent skill.
Yu Xunge and Tu Lan remained silent for a long time. With all the information laid out before them, they realized that these dominoes were not mahjong tiles or rare props, but rather destroyed worlds, their tombstones.
Yu Xunge didn't hesitate for long. After reading the system prompts and seeing the 10,000 honor points she had gained, she said to Tu Lan on her shoulder, "I must accept this mission. Are you still willing to continue our contract?"
Tu Lan seemed even more excited than Yu Xunge, and she said without hesitation, "Of course, this is a great adventure that only the protagonist can have!"
Yu Xunge couldn't help but laugh.
She fiddled with the dominoes in her hand, never once thinking of sending their information to Zhao Shuying and Dinghai; she was ultimately selfish.
If the royal families of various alien races ascended to the top and became the leaders of their respective races through such means, then she would be even less likely to hand it over to someone else, not even Dinghai.
If it were simply about enhancing the abilities of the entire race, powerful figures like Mistblade Maple wouldn't be so cautious. She doesn't believe there are truly selfless people in the world. If this kind of thing can elevate the life level of the entire race, then it must be of greater benefit to the participants in the game!
That's why they're so secretive and don't want more people to know!
If someone has to reach the top, why can't it be her?
As for the important matters she promised Zhao Shuying, she knew how to prioritize them.
She wasn't lying; she really knew how to prioritize important matters. Who would dare say she was lying?
Giving a little concession on ordinary days is harmless; it's a win-win situation for everyone.
But when it comes to power... everyone has to step aside!
She took out the other three dominoes, which also had information on them.
[Tomb of the World - 30,000]: When entering the World Battlefield, you (and your pet) can unlock one item.
[Tomb of the World - 50,000]: When entering the World Battlefield, you (and your pet) can unlock one item.
【Tomb of the World - Nine】: When entering the World Battlefield, you can bring one teammate (only of the same race).
The dead don't even deserve names, and each tombstone actually serves a purpose.
Yu Xunge couldn't just go there like that; even in a game, you can't be that reckless. She planned to ask Xue Dui about the World Battlefield after she met him tomorrow.
Tu Lan had already excitedly returned to her treasure vault to rummage through the treasures, but all of her treasures were for the exclusive use of the dragon race. If Yu Xunge wanted to use them, he would not only have to pay a high price, but he would also have very little power to mobilize.
Take Liang Pozhou for example. He used the power of the dragon scales. Although he didn't say what price he paid, Yu Xunge discovered that when the dragon scales were separated from Liang Pozhou's body, Liang Pozhou's four attributes all decreased by 1 point, and he also gained several negative statuses.
That night, Yu Xunge and Tu Lan barely slept, lying in the Dragon Fang Nest discussing the world battlefield.
The next day, Snowdrift howled in his own dragon's nest, and Yu Xunge and Tu Lan flew over immediately.
The snowdrift lay on its side on the ground without getting up. Unlike the last formal "family dinner," today was just a casual chat, so he wasn't too serious. After Yu Xunge and Tu Lan came in, he said, "Sit down."
Yu Xunge and Tu Lan walked to a spot near the dragon head and sat down.
Snowdrift didn't waste time on pleasantries. He went straight to the point: "The tower of Midnight City is also known as the Heart of the Oak Owl. It is a sacred object created during the final battle between the Oak Owl and Zelan, using the spirit of the Oak Owl as a seed and irrigated with the blood of hundreds of millions of warriors from the 12 Holy Races. Because it grows in the territory of the Oak Owl and the tree is the spirit of the Oak Owl, the 12 Holy Races tacitly agree that it belongs to the Oak Owl. It's just that all the Holy Races have the right to use it."
"It contains countless battles from the land of Zelan, pieced together from the fragments of warriors' souls and memories. Once inside the tower, your body will be under its protection, while your will and spirit will randomly enter a certain point in time, experiencing battles large and small."
"The flow of time is different in the Tower and Zelan. One day in Zelan is equivalent to a hundred years in the Tower. After entering the Tower, one will either suffer a mental breakdown and be thrown out of the Tower, or fight as an Oak Owl inside and experience a hundred reincarnations, or stay in the Tower for three hundred years to successfully climb the Tower."
"People generally believe that once you enter the tower, you will be transformed into an oak owl, but that is not the case."
"Over three hundred years, those members of the Holy Race who entered the tower lived and worked as Oak Owls, fighting alongside other Oak Owls. Even those with the strongest minds and understanding were inevitably affected."
