"System tip: Dear players, system settings, equipment A level includes A level or above, cannot be repaired with gold coins. After the durability of equipment A level or above is zero, you can restore the durability at one time through the special prop "Tiangong Stone". "Tiangong Stone" can be obtained through mission rewards, or you can go to the mall to buy it. I wish you a happy game~"
"……puff"
In the past, Qin Xiang had seen someone rushing to the point of squirting out old blood on TV or novels countless times. At that time, he was young and ignorant, and always thought that this was a deliberate exaggerated expression. Until now, he heard the answer from this system, he immediately felt that something seemed to be a sensation on his chest, and a fishy and sweet smell came from his throat.
After holding it in for a long time, he forced the mouth of old blood back. He got angry with this system and was as meaningless as going crazy with the air. At that moment, Qin Xiang could only reach out and wipe the corner of his mouth, and then compare his middle finger to the sky.
"The one who developed this game...I wish your wife never ** in her life..."
After thinking for a few seconds, he felt that such actions were meaningless. After sighing helplessly, Qin Xiang packed up his things and went home. He had to prepare to set out to take the carriage tomorrow. He didn't know if he would encounter any accidents on the road. In order to deal with possible accidents, he couldn't waste too much energy today.
So, Qin Xiang immediately returned toward the direction of the border...
———————————————
After she separated from Qin Xiang, Belanica also rushed to the city closest to the west of the Whirlpool Forest. For her, as long as there is a church, she could contact the church's top leaders. There was no need to rush back to the church headquarters. So she found the place that afternoon.
After revealing her identity, she naturally immediately and easily contacted the top leaders of the church.
After briefly explaining everything that happened before, facing the elderly elder who reflected the mirror formed by communication magic, Belanica bowed deeply...
"So, that's what happened so far. What should we do next? Please decide!"
After hearing all that Belanica said, the old man in the picture who had been keeping his eyes closed and resting silently opened his eyes.
The rough skin full of wrinkles, the turbid and blurred eyes, and the gray and sparse hair. No matter from any angle, the old man in front of him was in the state where one foot had stepped into the coffin and was only half a breath away from death. But Beranica was very clear about how powerful the old man in front of him was. The old man opened his turbid eyes and glanced at Beranica and nodded silently.
"You can achieve this level with the power of three people, and you are even better than I thought, then, just complete the task..."
The moment the old man finished speaking, another sound suddenly penetrated.
"Wait for me, I care about what I just said. Can I ask me a question?"
The person who spoke seemed to have a good relationship with the old man, so even if he was interrupted, the old man did not show any displeasure, but just nodded silently.
"If you have anything to ask, just ask..."
In response, the voice responded with a smile.
"Then I'm not polite. This girl, did you say before... when fighting with you, the evil clone already had a self-awareness?"
When asked this question, the voice had an unimaginable serious tone in its tone. Belanica did not dare to neglect it. After two seconds of silence, she nodded and responded.
"Yes, I can't make mistakes about this. The evil clone has already had a self-awareness and she can use language to communicate with us..."
You can use language to communicate with other creatures, which can be regarded as the best evidence for having self-thinking. In response, the voice was silent for a few seconds and replied calmly.
"I understand, I'm fine, where are you old friend?"
When he realized that the other party seemed to have something to say to him, the old man also responded freely.
"So, today's communication ends here..."
After saying that, he also cut off the magic communication. After doing this action, the old man turned his attention to him.
"So, do you have anything to tell me? Old friend..."
Standing next to the old man, that is, the person who just asked questions, was a person who was covered in a layer of hazy light and shadow, and could not even look real. When he heard the old man ask questions, he immediately spoke.
"The clone of the Evil Heart Sword Master has self-awareness. Isn't you sure what this means?"
Of course, how could it be unclear? There are only two elements that constitute the Evil Heart Sword Girl, one is the obsession in the mind of the Justice Sword Girl, and the other is the evil soldier and the monster disaster.
Of course, the weapon itself is unconscious, so if the evil heart sword girl has self-thinking, it is only possible that it is for another reason.
"Is Lord Jian Ji's... obsession?"
If the self-thinking of the Evil Heart Sword is derived from the obsession of the Justice Sword, then everything makes sense, and this also silently explains another fact.
"Since that self-awareness can be generated in that obsession, it means that there may be still memories of Lord Jian Ji. Although the probability is not high, for us, even if it is only one in ten million, it is worth our action... right?"
“…”
After hearing the man's words, the old man silently closed his eyes. What happened at that time in the Great Destruction Battle three thousand years ago? Even today it is still an insolvent mystery. What kind of war is it that involves the entire world and even crushes a whole piece of the complete continent into five parts?
Although I wanted to explore the truth, the parties involved at that time had all become a distant page in history, leaving no traces of searching at all. Finally, now there is such an opportunity. As that person said, even if there is only one in a million probability, if there is really a memory of Lord Jianji in the fragments of those evil soldiers, then...
Thinking of this, the old man opened his eyes again...
"Then... find the fragments of the evil soldiers, at all costs!"
———————————————
When Qin Xiang returned to the hotel where he was staying, it was already evening. After he ordered something casually and filled it up, he decisively returned to his room. After carefully locking the door, Qin Xiang turned over and lay on the bed.
The bed is an ordinary hard-board bed. It is simply covered with a thin layer of quilt. It is really a torture for sleeping in such a bed. However, Qin Xiang doesn't care much about this little thing. He raised his hand and called out the page of the system mall.
In this other world, there is nothing to do at night, so Qin Xiang specially left the work of inspecting the system mall to deal with it now, browsing from the pile of mall props one by one. First of all, those lucky treasure chests and other things were naturally skipped by Qin Xiang directly. Then, those mall skins that were outrageously expensive but actually useless were also decisively ignored. We are the poor, and we can't afford to burn that thing.
Finally, after various screenings, Qin Xiang found what he wanted from the messy mall props.
"First of all, it's Tiangong Stone, one hundred points rolled one piece. This thing must be used. I can't let me not use equipment. Then, it's mounts and pet feed. There's no hurry for this, and then there's a skill card. If you have a little rich roll, please be satisfied first. As for other fashions, treasure chests, lucky bags, VIPs, etc.... Stay away from me!!!"
After roughly calculating how to consume his own dots, Qin Xiang sighed with satisfaction. As long as the cost is calculated reasonably, the dots in his hand should be enough to support it, as long as there is no accident.
After understanding all this, Qin Xiang breathed a sigh of relief and slowly closed his eyes. Anyway, there was nothing to do, so it would be better to just fall asleep like this.
When Qin Xiang's breathing slowly became even and steady, an inexplicable light flashed suddenly on the demon sword that he had been carrying with him.
Then... Qin Xiang began to dream...
———————————————
"Well, where is this?"
Qin Xiang opened his eyes and looked around, but found that at some point he had come to a strange place. What he saw was an unfathomable huge canyon. Qin Xiang, who was covered in confusion, walked to the canyon, then lowered his head and looked into the canyon. Then, he was almost scared to death by what he saw in front of him.
The specific depth of this canyon is completely incalculable. In addition to its unknown depth, what is even more terrifying is that when Qin Xiang turned his eyes to the depths of the canyon, he found that the bottom of the canyon was covered by a surging black gas. In this black gas, there was a sudden explosion from time to time. A black lightning suddenly rushed out from the bottom of the canyon, and then it exploded into thousands of pieces and fell back into the valley halfway through the canyon, exploding into black fog at the bottom of the valley torrent.
Qin Xiang is not surprised that if someone accidentally falls down, he will be immediately burnt and crispy on the outside...
After swallowing silently, Qin Xiang couldn't help but ask a sentence he had asked before.
"Where is this place?"
Just after Qin Xiang finished speaking, a faint female voice suddenly sounded behind him.
"This is the Rock Valley of Louxia, or you can also call it another name - the Gate of the Abyss!"
“?!”
Qin Xiang quickly turned around and turned his eyes to the direction of the sound, but saw a girl with a ponytail and dressed in single clothes standing behind him silently with a leisurely and calm smile. The moment he saw the girl's face, Qin Xiang immediately felt in his heart. He always felt that he had seen this girl somewhere, but he couldn't remember it at all.
The girl obviously didn't mean to answer Qin Xiang's doubts. She walked a few steps to the canyon and then spoke to herself.
"This is the gate of the abyss. At present, the only known entrance to the abyss on the earth is located. However, under normal circumstances, the space crack leading to the abyss is under this dead miasma. Even if the demons from the abyss can pass through the space crack, they cannot pass through this dead miasma zone. However, this space crack is not stable. It will automatically move every hundred years or so. Occasionally... it will move outside this dead miasma zone. At this time...that is, when a large number of demons leave the abyss and invade the continent, it is like... this time!"
Speaking of this, the girl suddenly raised her head. Seeing her movements, Qin Xiang also raised her head curiously. As a result, he saw that at some point a scarlet full moon appeared in the dark night sky. At the same time, a deep crack spread across the entire sky, and countless strange creatures flew out from the crack.
A frontal horns and wings on the back, covered with painted black scales. It was 90% similar to the legendary demon. After breaking away from the crack, it immediately burst into a hysterical laugh.
"Hahaha... I succeeded, I finally left the ghost place in the abyss! The air... fresh air, I smelled... and the smell of humans. Humans, are you here to stop us? Haha, how overestimated I am. As a high-level demon..."
"You're talking nonsense..."
Before the guy who seemed to be chatting and chatting finished talking nonsense, the girl beside Qin Xiang had already flashed and charged. The action was so fast that it exceeded the limit that Qin Xiang could capture. When he came to his senses, the girl had already passed by the chattering demon. The next second, the demon suddenly stopped the words in his mouth, and looked at his body with horror in an instant.
"So……"
Facing the more and more demons in front of him, the girl silently raised the weapon in her hand, a big sword flashing with a cold and cold light...
"Then, the goal is determined...exclusion begins!"
Then, Qin Xiang used his eyes to witness with his own eyes what an art-like killing is!
The cold blade of the skin cut open, along the texture of the muscles, avoided the existence of bones, and cut into the abdominal cavity. Then the sword turned and smashed all the fragile organs horizontally. With a sword, the enemy was instantly taken away all the strength of resistance, and gave the opponent the most fatal blow with the minimum effort!
No matter what level of demon it was, he could not walk through the girl's hand. When the sword light flashed, a corpse that had lost its life fell down in an instant. This wonderful one-sided killing made Qin Xiang deeply fascinated. This is the real sword move! This is the real power! Without any fancy skills, every move and every move are to maximize the power. Any opponent is a fatal move. In a trance, Qin Xiang seemed to hear a sentence that the girl silently recited.
This is the ultimate sword technique, killing the enemy...
“…Why do you need a second strike?”
However, no matter what, the girl had only one person after all, and there were more and more demons. Seeing that there were more and more enemies in front of her, the girl took a deep breath. Then, she flashed and opened a distance from the group of demons in front of her, and at the same time, she slid her giant sword in her hand.
Qin Xiang almost instantly came to his senses. This was clearly an attitude of trying to use a big move. He immediately held his breath and quietly looked forward. What kind of power would this girl with such powerful swords when she made her move with all her strength?
The girl didn't care about Qin Xiang's gaze. She raised her hand silently. In an instant, the big sword that looked very powerful was immediately thrown high. Qin Xiang's gaze watched the big sword spinning into the air, and then slowly fell back to the girl's hand...
"Fate-death—"
The girl holding the hilt of the sword looked like a linger. The next second, she suddenly waved the giant sword in her hand...
"——A moment of beauty!"
At this moment, the world was shattered!
Yes, the effect Qin Xiang saw at this moment was as if he was punched hard on a mirror, and the entire mirror was completely broken in a spider-web-like manner. However, what he saw at this moment was not a mirror, but a living world. Then there was only one possibility for this scene that completely shattered common sense in front of him...
"Space...her sword...breaks the space?!"
Of course, this change lasted less than a few seconds, and the self-repairing power of the space began to show its power, and the broken position like a mirror began to heal itself. However, the demons that broke with this space obviously did not have this ability. Even if they fought back as it was, the body that had been broken into two parts would certainly not be able to grow back. Therefore, the dense group of demons in the entire sky was completely killed by the girl in one move...
Looking at the bloody rain in the sky, Qin Xiang finally shuddered and remembered. The face of the girl he had seen was somewhere. At that moment, he could no longer help but shouted out.
"You are, Sword of Justice...Vitolia?!"
Just after he shouted, the world in front of him instantly turned into black and white and disappeared. At the same time, Qin Xiang, who opened his eyes, also saw a white ceiling...
"Uh, it turns out to be a dream..."...
Chapter completed!
