I Was Once a Legend

"Congratulations on successfully passing [Fairy Tale I——Hameln], the points are being settled for you, please wait a moment."

A woman's voice sounded in his head, and the dazzling light gradually disappeared.Dong Zheng opened his eyes, and the familiar scenery was reflected on his retina. On the gray-white table were two "Instruction Manuals for Newcomers to the Pure White Land Realm", and a pen was pressed on the half-written A4 paper—it was his notes. .

He was sitting at the table, holding a box in his hand, on which a simple and childish pattern was drawn with colored crayons. The original blurred picture became clear after clearing the level, in the shape of a frog and a flute.

The lid was half open, and there was only one box of medicine inside.

Dong Zheng took out the medicine box and opened it, and there was only one pill left in it, and added a sentence after "eatme" on the instruction manual: "Where is Alice? It's time to take medicine."

Lin Hai sat on another chair next to him, and there was no blood on his body. The young man stared at the box in Dong Zheng's arms in disbelief, reached out his hand to touch it in disbelief, and said, "It just came out like this?"

To be honest, the difficulty of this box, um... seems to be similar to the original novice guide.

It passed in a daze.

"The settlement is complete, you can get 20 points for successfully passing through [Hameln], 20 points for defeating Henry, and 30 points will be deducted for the illegal use of abnormal energy. Your team's current points are 44 points, and you can get items that can be brought out [Medicine for patients with delusional disorder x1]."

As soon as the result came out, both Dong Zheng and Lin Hai were stunned.

"Illegal use of abnormal energy was detected? What is that?" Lin Hai said dumbfounded, "No, why did you deduct so much at once? Isn't it only 20 for normal customs clearance?"

Dong Zheng frowned, pressed the prisoner pattern on his left hand, and shouted: "Cui Zuojing?"

"I'm here." The figure of the young man appeared out of nowhere and was summoned. He didn't pay attention to the two people in front of him directly, but looked sideways at the blue-white sky outside the window. To a trace of nostalgia.

This is the pure white sky that he hasn't seen in years.

Dong Zheng: "The settlement just now shows that we have used abnormal power in violation of regulations in the box."

"This." Cui Zuojing turned his head and looked at the young man in front of him. Dong Zheng's facial features were well-rounded, his silhouette was handsome, and his body inadvertently exuded the temperament of a superior person. His light-colored lips were slightly pursed into a straight line, especially that A pair of eyes, black and sharp, seem to be able to see through everything.

Thinking about it, he would not be an ordinary person in the real world.

"I took back a soul fragment, maybe I was noticed."

The calm and breezy tone in Cui Zuojing's tone successfully made the two of them frown even deeper, Linhai was confused, and the plot development of the whole box made him confused, but this did not prevent him from getting angry: "What fragments? Our points have been subtracted by a full 30 points, and the points for this whole journey to clear the level are only 20!"

Cui Zuojing immediately said kindly: "That must be taken back. If it causes trouble to you, I apologize."

Then he changed the subject: "But don't forget, if it weren't for me, you would all have died in that simple, terribly low-level box. I saved you twice."

Dong Linhai choked up, he said the outrageous words just now without thinking about it, in fact he knew very well, if it wasn't for Cui Zuojing, he and Dong Zheng would have fallen apart long ago.

Dong Linhai hesitated to say sorry, he was not the kind of unreasonable master, and finally whispered: "I'm sorry, I didn't say anything."

"Let's not mention the points for now, but can you explain what soul fragments are? You should also see that we have only come here not long ago. This is the first official box we have experienced. There are many more Unclear things."

Cui Zuojing's attitude towards the trainee who could barely make him fall in love with him was a little better. Except for the fact that this person wanted to order himself as the master when he first signed the blood contract, his performance at other times was very good for Cui Zuojing. Zuo Jing was satisfied.

The boy stretched out his right hand and showed the man his wrist, a light green pattern was faintly lit.

"The Pied Piper in that box is not an ordinary npc. The npcs and monsters in the normal box are all turned into dead people, but he is different. He is a piece of the soul of a friend of mine, or in other words, is His long-lost 'goodwill'".

Now many doubts in the box were explained, and Dong Zheng probably understood: "So he said that I have a familiar feeling because you have become my prisoner?"

Cui Zuojing: "Yes, of course, he recognized me in the end, and I used a little method to take this fragment away."

Dong Zheng: "Do you want to return that friend of yours? I remember you called him Fu Zhe."

Cui Zuojing hummed.

Dong Zheng nodded, and then asked another question: "When I used [Cronus' fingerprint], why was the Pied Piper not restrained for the time specified in the instructions? It was about the eighth second , he was in front of me in an instant."

This person...why did all the questions hit the point?

To be honest, Cui Zuojing didn't want to answer this question. The time prisoner's identity is not ready for others to know, at least not now.

Like Cui Zuojing, Fu Zhe was also chosen by the elements of this world to control the power of space. Although he became a prisoner of space because of the queen's curse, the Pied Piper is just a fragment of his soul, but a mere God of Time Fingerprints are not enough to trap him at all.

"This can't be said yet."

Dong Linhai asked: "Why?"

Cui Zuojing has a good impression of Dong Zheng, but it doesn't mean that he will treat Dong Linhai well because of this. Until now, the boy's performance has been terrible in his eyes.It's okay if his brain isn't that easy to use, but he still talks so much. When encountering something, the first reaction is to ask his brother for help. Those who don't know think it's a three-year-old child.

He said bluntly: "Do you know what is the core of the Cthulhu mythology? The more you know, the more crazy you will be, and the less you know, the more stable you will be. The same applies here, you are far from being exposed to these things At this time, if you want to make yourself feel better, don't ask more questions."

Lin Hai was stunned by Cui Zuojing, and he was so angry that he fell on his back, but in the face of the huge gap in strength between the two, no matter how unconvinced, he could only shut up.

Seeing Cui Zuojing like this, Dong Zheng became more and more convinced that this young man would never be ordinary. Ever since he met him, Dong Zheng had never seen any warmth in Cui Zuojing's eyes. His eyes were cold, leaving only a ruined depression.

Would a normal person kick an old friend away without hesitation?

"Linhai and I will improve ourselves as soon as possible. I can feel that there are many stories about you. It's normal to be wary after we first met, but no matter what, I hope we can have a truly honest day."

Dong Zheng covered the box and put it on the seat, stared into Cui Zuojing's eyes, and said with the most sincere attitude: "There is a relationship between the prisoner's contract and the blood contract, and it is estimated that we will need to get along for a long time. It's urgent, I didn't get to know each other formally, but now I have a chance."

Dong Zheng's good attitude made Cui Zuojing quite useful. There were only two chairs in the room. The young man moved the water glass away, sat down on the coffee table, and said, "Well, you guys come first."

"Dong Zheng, 26 years old, did some work in the family business in the real world, and died in a car accident three days ago."

The world's top 10 dual-degree master's degree in finance and management, the identity of a young entrepreneur is definitely a capital in the real world, but here, it has no use at all.

Dong Zheng is very self-aware.

"Dong Linhai, 18 next month, just finished the college entrance examination, and died together with him." Speaking of his own death, Linhai moved uncomfortably, "I am a sports student, and my physical fitness is relatively good, at least better than Hello bro."

Two rich kids?

Cui Zuojing nodded knowingly, no wonder Dong Zheng has the temperament of a superior, while Dong Linhai has the feeling of being pampered and brought up.

"Cui Zuojing, the prisoner's name is Arabidopsis, and his age is... 16 years old. I can't tell you what I have experienced in the pure white world, but just remember one thing, I am much stronger than you think. With me Help, you can definitely live here for a long time, at least you won't die of something stupid like most newcomers."

There will never be help for no reason, Dong Zheng noticed the implication of Cui Zuojing's words: "What is your condition?"

Talking to smart people is comfortable, Cui Zuojing said bluntly: "Don't rely on the existence of the blood contract to order me casually, don't use those three absolute orders without my knowledge, and don't let yourself get hurt easily. I’m afraid of pain, pain will make me feel bad, and once I go crazy, I’m even afraid of myself.”

This is not a condition that is difficult to achieve, Dong Zheng immediately agreed: "Yes, what is left?"

"No, you can ask me any questions at any time, as long as I know, I will say everything I can."

"Now there is one most important question." Dong Zheng took out his mobile phone from the drawer and opened the app with all white icons on the desktop. This one automatically appeared on his mobile phone after he came to the pure white land.

He researched it, and it included many functions needed here, including basic information, online trading platform and intelligence center, and so on.

Dong Zheng clicked on the basic information, and handed the phone to Cui Zuojing: "Right now, Linhai and I only have 44 points, and the clearing night will come in five days, if we don't have 60 points before then, the two of us One of them will be cleared."

Cui Zuojing glanced at the team information on the screen, then looked at the date in the upper right corner, April 4rd, it was indeed time for the bloody night to come.

In the pure white world, it is not as long as you pass the box successfully to survive, points are definitely one of the most important things.Points will be deducted for every day spent in the Pure White Realm, and points will be used as currency to buy various things from the store, and the 8th of every month is the clearing night, when all people with less than 30 points will was "cleared out".

The most extensive way to earn points is to clear boxes and trade items. Dong Zheng and Linhai only have 40 points after completing the novice box, and each of them spent 3 points to survive. They thought they could stay here temporarily by clearing another box After going down, I didn't expect that the points earned were deducted and deducted, and there were only 10 points left.

"It's easy to handle, isn't it just points, just go to another box." Cui Zuojing returned the phone to Dong Zheng, with a look of "I thought it was a big deal", and said easily, "You guys Let's take a rest for two days, and when you have enough energy, go earn some points and come back."

After finishing speaking, the young man no longer looked at the reactions of the two, straightened up, walked to the window, stretched out his hand and opened the narrow window of the Tongzilou, overlooking the city's scattered pavilions, roads intertwined like blood vessels, and far away That completely pure white area.

A circus runs there, and the endless train passes by the door of the tent every day. The smiling clown is responsible for welcoming the newcomers and guiding them to live in the afterlife.

Farther away, there are giant trees connecting the sky and the earth. The winding train tracks pass through the clouds. Whales are born from the afterglow of [-] lightning bolts. Flowers and fire give birth to endless snowfields in tears.

Farther away, Kether dominates the information highway. The entrance to the dreamland has been distorted by the roar of the steam engine. The sea fog is filled to hide everything, and the entropy flows upstream. The queen's palace stands forever in the back garden of God.

This is the pure white land he is familiar with.
