Chapter 200 The Spirit Fruit Is Ripe! (4K large chapter)

The content of the diary ends here.

"Mystery? Foresight? Could it be..."

Through the diary description and a few iconic words, Zhou Ze guessed at the first reaction that the mysterious stranger was probably Amytheus!

On the cruise ship in "The Rite of Cthulhu", Amishus once talked with him about the so-called "nature of foreknowledge".

'The essence of foreknowledge is to gain insight into the laws of operation of things. '

He still remembers what Ametheus said, and the other party has indeed relied on this method to have a strong predictive ability, and even the uploaded archived plot of the world game can release pigeons.

I have to say, in the big world game "Domination of the Old Ones", this guy is really everywhere!
Whether it's the past, the future or the present, they all take up the show!
Although he has never officially appeared on the stage, his sense of presence has always remained high, almost more like the protagonist than Kleis, the protagonist of the game.

"The dream guidance at the beginning, the radio advice in the middle, is it five years ago now?"

Zhou Ze rubbed his chin, deep in thought.

Not only was the No. 0 key picked up by Amishus guiding Kles, but now even the No. 0 vault is hidden by Amishus himself. So far, the whole road has been paved by Amishus into...

What exactly is it trying to do?
What else is hidden in the safe?
Even the coin of truth originated from Amishus, no wonder it has the effect of predicting the future.

Did Amytheus endow the gold coin with mysterious power through his own power?

This actually made Zhou Ze's vigilance and resistance to this gold coin even stronger.

Does anyone know if there is still a connection between this gold coin sacred object and it?If I accidentally rely on this gold coin due to a curse, am I afraid that Amytheus will influence the decision-making?Sure enough, it is better to use as little as possible.

"This big world game has been infiltrated too badly by Amitheus, and almost every step is preempted by him. If this guy wants to target me everywhere in the lost city, it really won't be too easy."

Holding the handle, Zhou Ze took a deep breath.

Fortunately, Amytheus believed his lies, thinking that there really was such a mysterious organization as the "Wheel of Fortune", so he didn't dare to act rashly to obstruct Kleis's actions, but instead offered his hospitality to help pave the way.

However, this feeling of being clamped everywhere is still very uncomfortable.

In particular, there is a powerful and mysterious guy watching his every move in the dark. If he is found out, he will become an enemy. I believe no one will like the feeling of being on pins and needles.

We must find a way to solve the thorny problem of Amishus as soon as possible.

Either subdue it or erase it.

"But with my current strength and influence, neither of the above two methods can be done."

Zhou Ze covered his face and sighed.

He can only believe in the power of the world game now.

Try to find a way to support the "Wheel of Fortune" troupe, so as not to be discovered by outsiders, as long as you can hang Amishus for a few months, and wait for him to clear a few more big world games, the power team should be able to It's officially built.

Back to the point.

"Amitheus is unlikely to have foreseen today's events five years ago, and it is even more impossible to start planning five years ago, but the diary seems to be written five years ago before the lost city fell into a catastrophe... "

After reading the contents of the diary repeatedly, Zhou Ze muttered, "Sure enough, the time in the Lost City is very chaotic. There must be some kind of secret behind it."

This big world game can't be the future five years from now. The evidence is conclusive. Er Gouzi, who traveled to the Lost City, mentioned that he only watched the video of "Rite of Cthulhu" a few months ago.

How did Amishus turn to the Lost City five years ago for layout?

Combined with the document dropped by the lunatic in the suit before, the five sentences written on it...

Is the Lost City really an illusory dream?A dream of all beings?
Perhaps this is the only way to explain the problem of time confusion.

However, Zhou Ze vaguely felt that the Lost City could not be just a dream.

Otherwise, what about the items he bestowed on Kles?What about Er Gouzi who traveled inside?
Also, the holy artifacts and weapons that the protagonist bought in the antique shop have actually increased his overall combat power. With the addition of a rifle and four holy artifacts, his combat power is almost approaching the [-] mark.

If it's just an illusory thing in a dream, it's impossible to increase combat power in the character panel.

The character panel of the world game is real-time data independent of the game. Even if the dream becomes a flying fairy, the panel cannot increase by a single cent because of the things in the dream. Only when the character really becomes stronger or weaker Only then will there be fluctuations in combat power.

My mind was filled with doubts.

Put aside the problem for the time being, and focus on the current plot advancement.

Following the instructions in the diary, Zhou Ze saw a tattered bank poster above his desk.

He took off the poster frame, and there was a square hole filled with bricks behind it. It was obvious that someone was hiding something behind the wall.

Have Krys break the bricks open to reveal the safe hidden behind.

This time he used the No. 0 key again, and finally successfully opened the door of the metal safe.

There are only two items in the safe.

A slap-sized fragment of an irregular mirror, and another piece of paper?
"Playing a puzzle game with me, this is? Running all the way here just to get the next clue?"

I thought there would be some treasure in the safe, or simply a way out of the lost city.

So disappointing.

Let Kress pick up these two things.

Read the note first:

'This mirror fragment comes from the old house in the deepest part of Poisonous Mist Street. It is the original origin of this place, and it is also the central link of the dreams of all living beings, connecting hundreds of other dreams called the Lost City...Return the mirror fragments to Once in place, you can go to other cities through it, and start the first step you need to do to escape from here, madness and massacre. —Ametheus'

As expected, the note was left by Amishus.

"This time it's finally not a puzzle."

But still hard to understand.

There are two parts of what he doesn't understand.

First of all, what does the All Beings dream and the Hundreds and Thousands Lost City dream mean?
Even if the dreams of all living beings confirm that the lost city exists in the form of a certain dream, it is still difficult to understand the meaning of hundreds of thousands... Could it be that there is more than one lost city?
Second.

Whether it's the document left by the maniac in the suit, or the note left by Amytheus.

They all mentioned going on a killing spree.

The file of the maniac in the suit states that he wants to kill himself in a frenzy.

"Combining the clues that the dreams of all beings and the mirror can go to other dreams, could it be that this so-called 'massacre yourself' refers to slaughtering yourself in other dreams? Why...why?"

The more he thought about it, the more headache he felt.

tick tock~tick tock~
Just when Zhou Ze was having a headache with the plot of the game, water droplets fell from the window.

Zhou Ze put down the handle and opened the door to check the situation, and found that the sky was covered with dark clouds and drizzle was falling from the sky.

It's raining in Yangzhen Canyon?
This is the first time in two months that he has seen a change in the weather in Sumeru Secret Realm!
"This rain, the concentration of aura is so high?"

Reaching out to catch the raindrops, Zhou Ze unexpectedly discovered that the rain contained rich spiritual power. Even if it was not as pure as the high concentration of the spiritual fruit, it was much higher than the normal spiritual power concentration in the air.

Little cinnabar, little black and little white demon pets do not take shelter from the rain in the open space, bathing in rainwater to absorb spiritual energy.

Faced with this rare climate in the secret realm, he didn't care to continue the liver game, and hurried into the rain to run the breathing method.

The efficiency is indeed stronger by more than one grade.

Just taking advantage of the gap between breathing and practicing can also give the head a rest...

Practicing breathing, four hours passed quietly.

When the drizzle stopped, Zhou Ze woke up from the breathing state.

Looking around, I found that the concentration of spiritual power in the canyon had increased a little, and the vegetation that had been drenched by the spiritual rain had grown vigorously to varying degrees, becoming more and more vibrant.

What surprised him the most was that the spirit vine that had been carefully cultivated during this period of time finally had a fruit that ripened!

In the lower left corner of the spirit vine, there is a fist-sized fruit that turns from green to red. The flesh of Hongdandan is a bit like a persimmon on the outside, but its shape is a bit like a plum. It contains majestic spiritual power and exudes an indescribable aroma.

Zhou Ze plucked the fruit ecstatically.

He swallowed, resisting the urge to eat it in one bite.

He first put the spirit fruit into the storage column and planned to check the effect and name of the spirit fruit through the portable interface.

When he just left home, Zhou Ze discovered that some things could get a more numerical description after being stored in the storage bar of the portable interface. This method can be used to find out the origin of the spirit fruit.

[Mature deteriorating vermilion fruit: a one-time consumable, a mutated spiritual plant similar to vermilion fruit spirits. After consumption, it can greatly increase the strength of spiritual power and slightly enhance the cultivation qualification (the specific effect depends on the individual situation). There is a small probability that the vermilion fruit core can be cultivated again New vermilion vines grow. 】

[Remarks: According to ancient rumors, vermilion fruit blooms for a hundred years and bears fruit for a hundred years. One person can only eat one in a lifetime...Deteriorated vermilion fruit does not take so long to bloom and bear fruit, but it needs a majestic environment full of spiritual power to mature, and There is no consumption limit, but the strengthening effect on cultivation aptitude, the more times you consume it, the weaker the effect will be. (The effect of the second one is half of that of the first one, and the effect of the third one is half of that of the second one.)]

"Zhu Guo? I didn't expect the name of this treasure of heaven and earth to sound familiar."

Zhou Ze is not someone who has never read traditional novels, so he naturally knows what Zhu Guo is.

Taking it out from the storage bar, he couldn't wait to take a bite of the spiritual fruit in his hand, the aroma was overflowing and it was extremely delicious.

A large amount of spiritual power overflowed along the bitten gap like a substantial blue light.

Regardless of the sweet and fragrant taste in the mouth, Zhou Ze could only choose two or three mouthfuls to quickly swallow the fruit whole in order to prevent the spirit fruit from overflowing with too much spiritual power, and a cool esophagus slipped down his esophagus.

This coolness did not fall into the internal organs, but quickly circulated along the eight extraordinary meridians in the body, and even the meridians felt an unbearable pain.

Zhou Ze hurriedly entered the breathing state again, running the spiritual power cyclone in his abdomen, harmonizing and absorbing the spiritual power of the swallowed fruit.

Although this spiritual power is huge, it is very pure, and it is easy to absorb it.

It took a few minutes to integrate these scurrying spiritual power into the spiritual power cyclone, like a trickle flowing into the sea, converging into a vast ocean, which almost doubled the state of the spiritual power cyclone!
In the next instant, azure air rose from his whole body.

These azure air currents are impurity spiritual energy that he cannot absorb temporarily, and there are only a very small part of the spiritual fruit.

It took Zhou Ze more than ten minutes to completely transform these spiritual powers into himself, and the abundance of spiritual power all over his body gave him the illusion that he could not run out of strength.

Take out the Tang Dao from the storage bar and perform the Immortal Immortal Technique.

A flame of azure blue spiritual power suddenly rose like an interstellar lightsaber!Soar into the sky!

This time the flame of spiritual power is several meters long!With the continuous infusion of spiritual power, there is a faint tendency to continue to expand.

If the previous Immortal Immortal Technique of Holding Spirits was just a layer of arrogance attached to the surface of the sword body, then the Immortal Immortal Technique of Immortal Immortality is like forcibly turning Tang Dao into a two-handed giant sword!Comparable to Ashes Guda's giant halberd!

Zhou Ze tried to swing this huge sword almost made of spiritual energy and flames.

Not only is it extremely sharp, but it is also extremely light.

Plunge down towards the ground.

The soil was torn apart by the flames of spiritual power without hindrance like tofu, and a few small stones were shattered under the agitation of spiritual power.

Kacha~~
Before Zhou Ze could be happy, Tang Dao seemed unable to withstand the infusion of such powerful spiritual power. Covered by the flames, the blade squeaked faintly, and tiny cracks appeared.

Scared by this scene, he hastily withdrew the spiritual power poured into the blade.

With a thought, the spiritual power and arrogance changed back to the size of only one layer attached to the sword body, became pure and cohesive, and the extension of the fine cracks on the sword body finally stopped.

"It's time to switch weapons."

Caressing the crack on the blade, Zhou Ze sighed and shook his head.

Although the workmanship of this Tang knife is good and the materials are sufficient, it is just an ordinary knife after all, and it cannot withstand too strong spiritual power... If there is no spiritual power and aura attached to the outside to bear the force, this knife has long been in contact with the secret realm. When the demons fight, they should stop.

As his combat power gradually increases, he must find matching extraordinary weapons to unleash his greatest strength.

"Although guns are powerful, swords for melee combat are still essential."

If you want to ask if there are any extraordinary weapons that you can think of at the first time.

The first thing that came to Zhou Ze's mind was the holy artifact!

In addition to the equipment rewarded by the system, the sacred artifacts are the extraordinary items he comes into contact with the most.

"There is a saber in the sacred artifacts collected by the old man in the antique shop. Unfortunately, the curse is too bad. During the battle, he may go crazy and make no distinction between the enemy and the enemy...I dare not use this kind of mind-affecting knife for free."

Although the soul of the player can temporarily put an end to the influence of the curse on the spirit.

But if you can prevent it for a while, you can't prevent it for a lifetime. You can't open the player's soul every time you use a knife, right?The player's soul also has side effects.

Leaving aside the holy saber, other holy weapons and swords are also worthy of attention. If you encounter one with a relatively small curse, you can let Kress find a way to get it, and after the game is over, it will be used as a meeting gift for joining the organization. Give him the mastermind behind the scenes.

"Speaking of which, although the organization needs to be formally established, I don't seem to have carefully planned the organizational framework and rules and regulations of Wheel of Fortune. How to get along with the first game character to officially join the organization is also a problem."

Look up to the sky.

If you want game characters to live in Xumi Secret Realm for a long time, how should you hide the fact that you have been playing games at home for a long time?Isn't the world game easily exposed?Or is it okay to be exposed to your own game characters?
When there are more people in Xumi Secret Realm, what should these game characters do is also a problem. They can't be allowed to huddle in the secret realm and just eat, drink and play cards every day, right?

Building an organization is not as easy as you think.

Forget it, it's still far from clearing the "Exile from the Past", let's think about it when you have free time.
