Chapter 185: Dream Corpse
Qiao Yan immediately responded: "Fragments of the divine domain?"
“It is the Godhead.”
"No wonder the system wants to buy these things from players." Qiao Yan also squatted down. "You can order players to enter the God's Domain. Is it difficult to add a setting that requires players to hand in the fragments of the God's Domain?"
Shuying lowered her head and dipped the half-man-high blade of grass into the river water to clean it bit by bit: "I've tried it."
"Failed?"
"The fragments of the divine domain will reject involuntary gifts."
Qiao Yan recalled Shi Yu's words to him in the player space before, "The Divine Domain will exclude outsiders." "The Divine Domain is not your temple's property, and neither are the Divine Domain fragments. When players complete tasks, it is equivalent to assimilating the Divine Domain. The moment the task is completed is when the fragments of the divine nature appear. The person with the highest degree of completion activates the title of perfect clearance, which is actually the process of the fragments of the Divine Domain recognizing their master. As long as the master is unwilling, you will not be able to get it, so you deliberately use system messages to give players an illusion that the fragments of the Divine Domain are rewards for perfect clearance, and then offer high points to purchase the fragments of the Divine Domain. After all, in the face of interests, no player will choose a string of useless data."
He looked up at the other person and knew he was right when he didn't hear a denial: "What about the dungeon that doesn't have a perfect clearance?"
Shuying's voice was calm: "Since the fragments have not recognized their master, there is no need to go through so much trouble."
"After the game is over, did it fall directly into the hands of your temple through the system?" Qiao Yan did not comment on their programming, "But since it is the godhead of the Lord God, could it not recognize its own master?"
Shuying was silent for a few seconds: "I thought I could recognize it."
Qiao Yan wasn't surprised: "And now you find you can't recognize me?"
Shuying's voice was as light as if it was separated by clouds: "He said that he is no longer the main god."
I should have figured it out long ago. That person is not the type to say hurtful things out of anger. Since he said that he is no longer the Lord God, then he is really no longer the Lord God. It is not even a change of position, but the essence of existence has been changed. If there is still a slight possibility of coming back, how could he be suppressed by a system, how could he have to go through life and death in the game like ordinary people, how could he have entered and exited the God's Domain so many times and never received the favor of this world for even a moment, on the contrary, danger would come uninvited like a swarm of bees.
The divine realm will exclude outsiders. No one is more certain of this than the gods of the temple. Otherwise, why would they have to find such a different way to create a system? Even if they want to come in, they must seal their divine power in advance, for fear of being expelled from this world. Perhaps it was when it began to take shape, or when it was first discovered, or when the other party's soul was scattered in the dark and damp prison, and fell into the netherworld, the divine nature formed its own world and gave birth to its own consciousness, and it was determined to shrink itself into a corner. Like a child who was abandoned just after leaving the mother's body and opening his eyes to the world, he refused to trust others, and could not trust himself. Strange, dangerous, from the divine realm, and even his original master, if they were detected to invade, they would only see their stress-like collapse to the extreme and die.
"The divine realm is very exclusive to gods with divine power." Shuying said, "Ordinary gods can't even get close to the outer edge of the divine realm."
Qiao Yan smiled for no reason: "Is this the reason why you dragged humans into the divine realm? Because there are too many fragments and it's too slow to collect them by yourself? So you dragged unsuspecting humans in as free labor?"
The sunlight cast a golden glow on the sparkling water. His voice was cold: "Do we deserve to be your victims?"
Shuying washed the grass leaves she had picked and heard the other party's merciless ridicule: "You deserve to serve a traitor as your master for more than 20 years."
He paused, lowered his eyes, and directed a stream of water to crush the plants.
“Why us?”
"Age between 18 and 48, in good health with no major medical history, no mental or other illnesses that affect intelligence and thinking, and meet the minimum requirements for players."
Even someone with a dull face like Qiao Yan almost laughed out of anger at these words.
He originally didn't want to ask how the other party could suddenly become wise after being stupid for more than twenty years. Unfortunately, the truth about why he was dragged into the divine realm was too bizarre. He was too lazy to maintain a calm appearance and asked directly, "How did you recognize he was real?"
Shuying didn't say anything.
Qiao Yan didn't care: "The live broadcast room in the game is still open. The trivial things in your God Realm can't be heard by the players, but the audience has been watching it in real time..."
He saw the other person's eyes and suddenly stopped: "You did it on purpose."
Suddenly, the cry of birds was heard in the air, and a dark shadow swooped down and pecked at the food.
Shuying lowered his head and continued to grind the grass leaves.
Qiao Yan stood up suddenly. "You know that the game is live-broadcasting, and you also know that the audience is watching in real time. You told me, a human, these things that have nothing to do with me and do not need me to know the truth, just to use the live broadcast room to expose the matter. The rumored betrayal is true, and the final death is also true, only the object is false. The traitor used public opinion to release news that is completely contrary to the facts, so now you also want to use public opinion to bring down the traitor."
Shuying raised her eyes and looked at him calmly.
"You suddenly discovered that Shi Yu was the real Lord God because of what happened in his live broadcast room during this period of time and the reactions of the audience inside. But you were discovered before you could do anything, and had to go into the game to avoid being hunted down. But the player forum is tightly controlled by the system, especially since half a month ago, any post with the word Lord God in it will be directly deleted. You suddenly showed mercy and told me everything, just to spread the news through the mouths of the audience in the live broadcast room."
Shuying neither admitted nor denied it, and her eyes showed no emotion at all.
Qiao Yan looked at him again and took a breath: "Your temple's habit of taking advantage of others is really the same."
This is probably the good thing about enlarging the environment: you never have to worry about not having enough plants you need.
The half-human-high plant was pounded into a concentrate that was only the size of a fist. Shuying took the ground dough out of the water flow: "Thank you."
【sluggish】
【Suddenly I feel complicated】
[I don’t know whether to sigh or curse at the ridiculous things in the God Realm… I can’t seem to curse any more.]
[No wonder the fragments of the Lord God’s divinity appeared outside the netherworld. No matter whether they are human or god, they must come to our netherworld to report after death, but the Lord God does not have the qualifications to reincarnate. The godhood is probably dropped outside when the soul came to the netherworld but the reincarnation road refused to receive it. As a result, it has now become a world of its own.]
[Now I know why the kid named Guan Lu in Shi Yu's first game chased after him without anyone even looking at him, saying he was looking for his sister. Also, the aboriginals in that game all said that Shi Yu and Guan Yueyue looked alike. I was confused at the time. They were not on the same level of gender, so how could they be alike? But that whole world was created by his deification, and Guan Yueyue was a mountain god, so he must have the most concentrated power. Who else could he not look like?! ]
[This is probably the first time I’ve heard someone admit that they can remain calm even when using me as a tool. One was inexplicably dragged into the game, while the other’s belief that he had held for more than 20 years suddenly collapsed. I don’t know who is more miserable between the two.]
[What I am most curious about now is what happened to Shi Yu back then. I always feel that there must be something that Luo Huaishen doesn’t know. Only the Lord God himself can give the answer.]
[Unfortunately, they don’t seem to be willing to ask. I’m really anxious right now.]
When he stood up and prepared to leave the river, Shuying suddenly raised his hand as if he had discovered something. The water flowed along with his movement and crashed into the bushes not far away.
There was a sound of splashing water, and a wet black-feathered bird flew away shrieking.
Qiao Yan turned his head: "Vulture?"
Shuying has already walked over.
There is actually no shortage of creatures like vultures in the forest, but their appearance under the player's nose becomes deliberate.
Shuying lifted the bushes and saw a corpse lying on the ground that had begun to rot.
In fact, the body had been completely cut into pieces, but the skull that was gnawed away with its eyeballs missing, the palm with only three fingers left, and the dirty clothes on the ground stained with organs and blood all indicated that the dead person was a human being.
And he's a non-player native.
They had never been out to see the scenery outside the forest, and they didn't know whether there were humans living there; the only known thing inside the forest was the colorful, dreamy castle with a strong fairy-tale style.
※
The two of them measured the time in their minds and walked back to the outside of the castle on time.
Ji Congyang stood up and patted the grass debris on his clothes: "He fell asleep."
Shi Yu leaned against a tree trunk with her eyes closed. Her eyelashes cast a shadow under her eyes. Her face was crystal white, but her lips were a deep, sickly purple.
Shuying didn't wake him up. She used a knife to cut several cuts on the tooth marks on the other's right hand, applied medicated paste, and quickly wrapped it with a hemostatic bandage to ensure that no smell would escape before she tore off the joints.
I looked up and met a pair of eyes.
He was stunned and his heart skipped a beat for no apparent reason.
Shi Yu looked down at his right hand. He didn't know if it was because he had just woken up or because of the snake venom flowing in his blood, but he had a headache. He pressed his solar plexus with his fingertips and said, "Thank you."
Shuying opened her mouth and was about to say something, but someone next to her interrupted her: "A human died in the forest."
Shi Yu listened to this adjective: "Ordinary people?"
"Natives." Qiao Yan tilted his head to look at the castle standing silently beside him, "Maybe he is the owner of this place."
Shi Yu thought for a moment and asked, "How did he die?"
"I can't tell." Qiao Yan tried to describe it, "Have you ever played ocean ball?"
Shi Yu was at a loss: "I have seen it."
"The body was broken into pieces like a ball pool in front of you."
“…”
"The body is too big, and we are in a hurry, so we can't delay too long and fail to check it carefully." Qiao Yan stretched out his hand to him, "Do you want to go and take a look?"
Shi Yu shook his head, used the power of his arm to stand up, and turned his eyes to the castle: "Go in and take a look, and you will know."
The moment the words fell, the scene in front of him suddenly changed.
Shi Yu sat on the steps, watching the dice float over, and waited for a while before throwing it.
Five o'clock.
It's a venomous snake again.
Shi Yu was silent for a while, then opened his bracelet and took out the ceramic pot.
When I walked through five squares, the "hissing" sound behind me suddenly came from far away.
"Bang--!!"
The tip of the venomous snake's red tongue had just shown, and the next moment a pot came directly over. The ceramic sand and gravel was like a helmet, covering the fangs, tongue tip and triangular head that came over, fitting perfectly.
