I Forged the Myth of the Old Ones

"what is this?"

Zhou Changqing asked.

"Most of the monsters in the Black Forest have extraordinary power. Some of the powerful creatures will produce pollution deposits. This is their core. Although these cores are beautiful, the pollution contained in them is far more powerful than their flesh and blood. many."

Jost glanced at the thing and explained.

"Pollution of Flesh"

Zhou Changqing thought about it. He seemed to have eaten a lot of iron lizard meat. After prying off the iron lizard's ore shell, they brought back most of the meat as an extra meal. Recently, they finally had a good time. Eat meat and drink soup.

He didn't consider the pollution in the flesh and blood of these monsters at all.

But he didn't really come to this world, he was just playing games, and the pollution was just a setting, Zhou Changqing wasn't worried at all.

Can't the settings in this game still affect me in reality?

While Zhou Changqing was thinking, Drizzt was flipping through those magic books. Although he, as the chosen one, could not sign the contract of the magic net and get the favor of the gods of the kingdom of the night, but as a person who has already been able to do so in [Alienation] and [Sublimation] For those who walk in the difficulty level, the pollution he has suffered has long surpassed what is contained in these magics, so it is no problem to browse casually.

Of course, most of the spells are of little use to Drizzt. In terms of attack power, his [Fake Sun Flame] is comparable to the strongest attack spell in Kingdom of the Night, while others, Drizzt temporarily It won't be useful for a while.

But it's always good to see more, since it doesn't affect one's sanity, Drizzt is also willing to learn more, so as not to be at a loss when encountering similar weird situations in other foreign lands in the future.

"almost."

Zhou Changqing studied it again, until the game prompts that the power supply is about to run out, and then prepares to go offline for a rest.

He returned to the players' residences, which were built during this period for players to log off, so that they would not appear in strange places when they went online together.

Taking off his helmet, Zhou Changqing let out a long sigh of relief.

At the beginning, I came here to try out the second test of the new game registration. After I was selected, my unit gave me support. But now, after such a long time, Zhou Changqing suddenly couldn't tell the difference between reality and fantasy.

Now, in addition to sleeping time, he spends far more time in the Kingdom of the Night when he is awake than now. When virtual reality like "cage" occupies most of his life, Zhou Changqing feels more and more as if he is living in The Kingdom of the Night has been destroyed, and the reality is false.

Jost and other NPCs, just like real people, have their own thoughts, communicating with them, Zhou Changqing didn't feel like he was playing a game at all.

Of course, after realizing this, he will stay in reality for a little more time, and also review the knowledge related to communication by the way.

After charging the helmet, Zhou Changqing went to wash his face. Now it was time to eat. He was going to go downstairs for a walk and eat some warm food.

Looking in the mirror, Zhou Changqing looked at himself.

Normally, when I am addicted to playing games every day and do not exercise, I should be very haggard, but unexpectedly, Zhou Changqing behaved very healthy, as if the sports and labor in those games were actually reflected in the In general.

Suddenly, Zhou Changqing saw himself in the mirror, with the corners of his mouth curled up, revealing a smile.

And he didn't smile at all.

Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly ticket!

===734. Fourth Floor===

Zhou Changqing rubbed his eyes.

The self in the mirror rubbed his eyes too.

Zhou Changqing felt that maybe he was tired from playing too many games, that's why he had the illusion just now.

He turned on the faucet, picked up a handful of cold water with his hands, and rubbed his face vigorously, so that his spirit became very clear.

Lifting his head, he looked into the mirror.

The mirror is empty, reflecting the bathroom wall.

"It's all right this time."

Only then did Zhou Changqing feel relieved, wiped his cheeks with a towel, and returned to the living room.

He packed his clothes, took his keys and mobile phone and went downstairs. The corridor was a bit dark. It was getting dark lately recently, and there was still a little sunlight spreading from the clouds, caressing the slightly narrow corridor entrance, covering the whole city. Layers of ambiguous glow.

The elevator went up one floor at a time, and Zhou Changqing waited while swiping his phone.

At this time, he heard the elevator stop and stopped downstairs.

"Ok?"

Zhou Changqing pressed the downward elevator. In theory, the elevator should first go up to the highest floor that was pressed down, and then move down a little bit. It should be the other stairs, not the one I was waiting for.

"Maybe there is something wrong with the program."

Zhou Changqing didn't take it to heart.

The elevator quickly restarted, and with a ding, the elevator door opened.

Zhou Changqing originally wanted to see who was pressing the elevator downstairs, but he found that the elevator was empty and there was no one there.

Only the smooth mirror reflected Zhou Changqing's face.

He froze and walked into the elevator.

Press the first floor, the elevator closed, and the closed door was like a mirror reflecting Zhou Changqing's appearance.

He looked down at his phone, swiped two pieces of news, and felt that the elevator's descending speed slowed down, and it was almost there.

Looking up, Zhou Changqing found that the elevator did not stop at the first floor.

It's the fourth floor.

It's normal for elevators to malfunction.

But the problem is that the community where Zhou Changqing lives, because the developer is a bit superstitious, there is no fourth floor, the fourteenth floor, and the fourth building is also an unoccupied property building.

Then the problem is coming.

What floor is Zhou Changqing on now?

The elevator stopped here, motionless, Zhou Changqing took a look, wondering if the display was wrong, this place is actually the fifth or third floor or something.

Ding--

Suddenly, the elevator rang, causing Zhou Changqing to tremble.

He saw the elevator doors open slowly, revealing the walkway outside.

The aisle was pitch black. It was only less than 2 minutes after taking the elevator, but the sky was completely dark?

Zhou Changqing pressed the button of the elevator to close the door, but the button seemed to be broken, and there was no response at all when he pressed it.

He hesitated for a moment, then looked outside.

The corridor was pitch-black, there were no doors to be seen, and no light came through the windows, giving people a sense of uneasiness.

Under normal circumstances, Zhou Changqing should have panicked at this time.

But after all, he has experienced the Black Forest of the Kingdom of the Night. At night, although the Black Forest is not blinded, it is far more terrifying than it is now. The sobbing of unknown creatures in the depths of the forest, the sound of insects, and the leaves The sparse sound of being blocked and blown aroused panic.

But now, Zhou Changqing only felt strange.

He waited for a while and decided to go out and have a look.

After all, it is said that there is no fourth floor, but in fact it is just that there is no fourth floor on the sign. The original fourth floor is actually the fifth floor. The elevator can't create a fourth floor out of nothing.

Zhou Changqing had met the residents on the fifth floor before, and they were a couple with a good relationship.

He stepped out of the elevator and looked towards the end of the corridor by the dim light inside.

There, there is a door.

The door was glowing with a reddish light, as if it was illuminated by a candle. In this darkness, it looked extremely strange.

At first, Zhou Changqing thought it was an emergency safety door, but after a closer look, he found that it was neither the location of the stairs nor the location of the residents. It was just a wall on another floor.

He frowned slightly, and his curiosity made him decide to see what was there.

Zhou Changqing probably started looking for the stairs and left in a hurry before he changed his job.

But now, the experience in the game made Zhou Changqing less timid, and he walked towards that door.

Walking in the dark corridor, Zhou Changqing heard footsteps.

The footsteps were out of sync with his own, as if something was following behind him.

He couldn't help but glance back, only the light of the elevator still illuminated the corridor.

Turning his face, Zhou Changqing saw a face in front of him.

Startled suddenly, he took half a step back.

The face was that of a man with closed eyes, pale and distressed.

Zhou Changqing could only see this face, not his body, hands and feet.

That face was just suspended in mid-air, level with Zhou Changqing's face.

He felt his heart pounding, as if being poked by something.

Only then did Zhou Changqing realize that this face was exactly the same as his own!

This is himself!

The face was motionless, like an illusion, faintly visible in the light of the red door.

He thought for a while, avoided this face, and walked quickly to the door.

Zhou Changqing noticed that the door was made of wood, covered with rough textures, and there were even a few sheets of paper pasted on it, with words he couldn't understand written on it.

It's like a seal.

He thought for a while, and reached out to uncover the talisman paper. Suddenly, with a creak, the door slowly opened.

Zhou Changqing took a look inside and found that it was an extremely simple room, just like in the countryside, with wooden tables and chairs, teapots and cups, old hanging paintings, tablets, and incense burners.

In the room, there was a person sitting at the table with his back to Zhou Changqing.

It looked like an old man. Zhou Changqing didn't remember if there was such an old man in his building, but he took two steps closer and made a sound.

"Uh, sorry, I checked that the door was not closed, so I came in and took a look."

Zhou Changqing coughed and said.

But the other party did not respond.

He approached each other, wanting to pat each other on the shoulder.
