Welcome to Nightmare Game III

On the rail train heading to the gap between the two worlds, in the box at the rear of the car, Qi Leren made a cup of coffee for Nightingale.

"Tell me about you, I'm very interested." Qi Leren said.

Based on Qi Leren's work experience in the court, usually when he talks to a person like this, the other person will start to talk about his own affairs like pouring beans.

However, the woman in front of him was not like this, she didn't follow the rhythm he gave.

Nightingale asked him a question: "Do you know Ning Yu?"

"Ning Yu?" This is another strange name for Qi Leren, but this surname made him guess, and he asked with a complicated mood, "Is it the previous Destroyer Demon King?"

Nightingale nodded, "I'm here for his successor."

Regarding Ning Zhou, Qi Leren's eyes suddenly became sharp: "If you came for him, you should have appeared three years ago."

"Yes, I knew that Ning Yu's heir appeared three years ago. Or, earlier, when Queen Maria gave birth to him, I knew. But, so what? I am loyal It's Ning Yu, not his son." Nightingale smiled brightly, not hiding her thoughts.

"Then why are you showing up now?" Qi Leren asked.

"Because of Ning Yu's will." Nightingale put her hand in front of her heart and said solemnly, "As his secret keeper, I obey all his orders, so I am here."

In Nightingale's narration, the people of Qi Le finally knew her origin.

There was also the magnificent past, but it was dusty in history.

"I'm not a human being, nor a demon, nor an outsider like you. I come from an ancient and closed family that lives in seclusion in the north of the Demon Realm. You may have heard of that place, the Sea of ​​Death."

Qi Le people suddenly remembered something: "What is the relationship between the shepherd and you?"

Nightingale's pupils changed slightly, like a cheetah ready to go, but in the next second, she relaxed and returned to a comfortable posture.

"He is my grandfather and the patriarch of our clan."

Qi Leren looked at her expression seriously: "So, you are the traitor he said?"

Nightingale smiled rebelliously, and she was not ashamed at all: "Yes."

It turned out that the person who betrayed Jinyu and sent the method of killing gods to the old devil king was sitting in front of him at this moment.

The people of Qi Le looked at Nightingale carefully, and heard her say: "Our family is different from human beings. After birth, the first thing a baby drinks is not breast milk, but the water of the sea of ​​death. The water contains the inheritance of our family from generation to generation. Wisdom. Every dead clansman will be buried in the sea of ​​death, and the knowledge he possesses will also be melted here and become the knowledge of newborns. Therefore, we are born with wisdom, and every child is no different from an adult .”

"In the sea of ​​death, there is an aurora all over the sky. The aurora is the thinking of the world's will, and we can read more knowledge from it. For millions of years, our family has struggled to decipher the thinking of goldfish, using his thinking to create The writing—that is, the writing that is commonly used in the human world and the demon world today. We recorded this knowledge in different categories, and the writing and knowledge spread to places other than the sea of ​​death. The human world and the demon world have been civilized since then.”

During Nightingale's narration, the magnificent and glorious picture appeared in Qi Leren's mind:

In the ancient prehistoric times, the tiny races crawled on the earth, looking up in awe at the looming huge god in the sky—it was a sleeping goldfish.

He is so huge, so majestic, during his "breathing", the sky is filled with lit green aurora, blown to the corners of the world.

He was originally unknowable, but the tiny race that served him deciphered his thoughts from the aurora for generations. Generation after generation, they drank the water from the sea of ​​death and passed on the wisdom that was originally unknowable: words, fire, planting, put up……

The more they know, the more pious they become, because all this is given by God.

Until, the nightingale appeared.

"I may be a born traitor." Nightingale said frankly, "When I was eight years old, I got a new piece of knowledge from Aurora. Since then, I decided to be a traitor."

"What knowledge?" Qi Leren asked.

Nightingale smiled and shook her head, and once again put her hand on her heart: "This is also a secret."

"You secret keeper, what secrets are you keeping?"

"Many, many secrets. Before the final battle begins, I can't, and it's impossible to tell. Once I say it, He will know, and then the situation of the final battle will change." Nightingale looked quietly.

Qi Leren frowned slightly, and continued to listen to her.

Nightingale was a core member of the Destroyer Demon King's council 25 years ago, and she has not been expelled until now.When Ning Yu was still traveling in the human world, they were like-minded partners.At that time, there were a lot of outsiders in their team—that was the first group of players to enter the game.

Later, all her former comrades-in-arms died, the challenge of killing gods failed, and the king she was loyal to went crazy.

The only surviving Nightingale, carrying the hope of her comrades, kept this history in her mind and became a secret keeper.For this reason, she lived for 25 years, waiting for the next person who could kill God to appear.

Originally, she did not intend to intervene in the coronation ceremony of the Demon Realm.

All she had to do was follow Ning Yu's last order, and after the finally crowned Demon King appeared, she would tell him the secret she kept.

The crowned demon king will take the secrets from her to challenge the will of the world.

Hearing this, the people of Qi Le understood—Nightingale's so-called secret was the whole story of Ning Yu's battle against the will of the world.To use the metaphor of the game, it is the failure of the first game, and maybe there is also a strategy for the second week that Ning Yu thought of.However, the crazy Ning Yu has no way to execute it himself.

So he chose to store these things in Nightingale's mind, and asked her to leave this secret to the next person who dared to challenge the gods.

"It was originally like this. But just a few days ago, I saw Ning Yu's consciousness left in the world. He said that he was awakened by the fusion test and found that he had a son..." Nightingale's smile suddenly widened, "and Daughter-in-law."

Qi Leren: "..."

"He changed his position. He wants to keep Ning Zhou at all costs. So he decided to let me play the 'black whistle' from an impartial referee...Although I don't know what the word means, but Ning Yu is like that told me."

Qi Leren understood what she meant.

Originally, Ning Yu didn't care who could win, as long as he could defeat the goldfish and end the tragic fate of all players, he deserved to die.

But when he briefly awoke from his death slumber and saw his surviving son, he changed his mind.

Qi Leren suddenly remembered the narration he saw on his laptop:

[Did he succeed in the fusion trial?Successes and failures.The newly born Destroyer used his mother's holy sword to kill his father, a second time.Now, he inherited everything from his father, including that cursed madness. 】

But all Ning Zhou got was the power of destruction and his father's madness?

No, obviously, there is still father's love.

His unmasked father, for him, woke up from the source and sent the nightingale who could bring victory to him.

A completely insane demon king who had lost his humanity, died because of love, and was resurrected because of love.

In the end, it is the love in humanity that overcomes the ruthlessness of divinity.

"Although the news was 25 years late, he finally found out." Nightingale's eyes were filled with tears, "It's great, those people who returned to their origin didn't really lose themselves, and became part of the world forever. It turns out that they still wake up from time to time, hear our voices, see our appearance, and even feel happy for us."

Qi Le was as excited as others, and he couldn't wait to ask: "In other words, their consciousness has not disappeared? In a sense, are they still alive?"

"If you are referring to those people at the domain level, after they die, they return to their origin, just like a glass of water flowing into a river, we can't scoop them up again. They sink and sink with the river Floating, maybe in a certain moment, they woke up, saw us on the river bank, and we heard the sound of them beating the embankment. But they are already a part of history, and we cannot let them return to the cup.” Nightingale said sadly.

This is the knowledge of the will of the world in Aurora, the secret she knew after she drank the first mouthful of the sea of ​​death.

Qi Le's heart froze, and he continued to ask: "What about the others? Those dead players, are their consciousness still there?"

Nightingale looked straight into his eyes and asked a question that made Qi Le people tremble all over: "Have you never thought about why the dead players are recorded on the tombstone on Undead Island?"

There was a momentary blank in Qi Leren's mind.

yeah, why?What's the point of these records?

There must be some meaning, for the shepherd who served the goldfish recorded them.

It's like, a game records player data.

So, is there a way to retrieve these "data"?

"But all of this is meaningless fantasy before we have the authority of the world. We must win, win the coronation ceremony of the devil king, get the godhead to challenge the gods, and then defeat him. Those who fight the devil eventually become the devil. Then , Those who fight against gods can also become new gods!"

"I understand." Qi Leren took a deep breath, got up and stretched out his hand to Nightingale, "Our first step is to find Ning Zhou, let him regain his sanity, and attend the coronation ceremony of the Demon Realm in perfect condition .”

Then get rid of power and fraud, and then get rid of the goldfish, and end the world's too long nightmare.

Nightingale held his hand, which was stronger than his, and it hurt Qi Leren a little bit.

"No, Your Majesty, our first step is to parachute the Council, seize the Book of Destruction that can control the Council, and prevent this group of demons who do whatever they want from re-electing the chief. Otherwise, the Dragon Ant Queen may be cut in half."
