BXBX NOVEL 999 Chapter 945
[In these ruins, a group of people arrived at the entrance of a secluded valley.]
At the beginning of the opening cinematics, there was a powerful old voice that narrated the story in a rather ancient tone, setting the tone of the entire script.
[In the exploration team of about a hundred people, there are officials who have power in the court, generals who have outstanding military achievements, and even Royal relatives. Of course, most of them ... Were soldiers and servants.
As the narration continued, a group of people wearing ancient China clothing and armor walked out from a mountain road.
The three men in the lead were all riding horses, and each of them was wearing a different style of official robes, which seemed to indicate that they were from different institutions ...
Judging from the eyes, figures, and the momentum of their movements, they were undoubtedly martial artists and experts who had been through killing formations for a long time.
Behind the three vanguards was a large group of light-armored soldiers with swords and sabers at their waists. At first glance, these people were just ordinary soldiers, but if one looked carefully ... It was not difficult to find that they were all martial artists with a certain Foundation of internal strength, and were definitely not ordinary soldiers.
As he looked further back, he could see other people riding horses and carriages ...
There were only three carriages in the group, and they were slowly moving forward under the escort of the soldiers. Each carriage was pulled by two horses. In addition to the coachman, there was also a rider who followed closely at the side. At a glance, it was obvious that this was the role of a bodyguard.
Finally, at the end of the group, there were two horsemen and more than ten people in casual clothes. Although these people were not equipped with any weapons or armor, they were all strong and healthy men. Just by looking at their steps, one could tell that they were much lighter and more vigorous than ordinary people.
[Ming, 22nd year of Shengping.]
[The Emperor is ill. He urgently summoned three trusted aides into the palace and personally issued a secret edict.]
[After a month, the three actual leaders of the governor\'s office, the embroidered uniform guards, and the East military execution order led a group of mysterious men and appeared in this Valley on the border.]
At this point, a subtitle appeared in front of the players and the audience. It read:
"Note: the History of the Ming Dynasty in this world is very different from the actual history. The basic setting is ... Zhu Changluo of the Mingguang sect, who should have died of illness in the same year after he ascended the throne, lived for more than 30 years before he died of illness. The butterfly effect caused great changes in the ruler of the Ming Dynasty, the structure of the government departments, and the duration of the dynasty. The current script takes place in a period that doesn\'t exist in official history. Shengping is a fictional year name, and so is the Emperor and other characters. "
After the subtitles appeared and paused for a while, the narration continued.
[This Valley is called \'burial heart Valley\'. It\'s located in a desolate area on the border. The entrance to the valley is extremely difficult to find, and the valley is isolated from the world.]
[Legend has it that a \'King of Hell\' lives in the heart burial Valley. He can control life and death.]
[If those who have nowhere to go in the world can be taken in by the King of Hell and enter the valley, they can save their lives.]
"No matter who the person seeking refuge is, what they\'ve done outside, and how powerful their enemies are ... Once they enter the burial heart Valley, King Yama will definitely be able to protect them from death."
[This person will never be able to leave the valley in this life.]
[Otherwise, he/she will have to return the life that the King of Hell gave to him ... Back to the King of Hell.]
After the introduction, the camera cut to the depths of burial heart Valley ...
Behind a Hill, beside a clear spring, there was a rather large village. At the end of the village, there was a Manor that stood against the mountain.
The players \'gazes followed the camera\'s high-speed movement, moving back and forth in the village.
"Saber King of the desert, di hou. Number one spear user in the pass, Feng er. Flying dragon swordsman, he Ziming. Commander of octagonal tower, Meng Qi ..."
Every time the voice-over announced a person\'s name, the camera would quickly shift to a villager and stop for a few seconds.
It was obvious that this was a hint, or an indication, that these villagers who were plowing the fields, drawing water, and feeding the animals were all once influential figures.
[These once all-powerful experts have now become the \'little ghosts\' under the King of Hell.]
[Their lives no longer belong to them. [It\'s because ... They\'ve done something wrong ...]
"Killing the innocent, betraying the country, committing treason, raping another\'s wife and daughter, taking lives for money ... Everyone in this village had done things that they should not have done as a human, so they no longer had a place in the world. That\'s why he came here and became a \'ghost\'."
"It\'s not that no one has tried to hunt down the fugitives in burial heart Valley. Many years ago, someone had tried, and over the years, someone had also tried ... But these pursuers either gave up or became \'ghosts\'."
[Today, the order of this place will be broken ...]
The storyline ended there, and the players gained the ability to move at the same time.
This time, the two teams were teleported together and stayed with their teammates from the beginning.
"What the ... What\'s going on?" Wang Tanzhi asked the moment he stood still.
At this moment, the four members of the [underworld frontline] team appeared in a desert. A few dozen meters in front of them, there were a few dozen groups of people scattered around. At a rough glance, there were about three to four hundred people.
Those people were all dressed in different styles, and the weapons they carried were also different. Judging from the distance between the crowd, they were from at least dozens of different camps ... And this did not include those who were standing alone.
"This ... Could this be a martial arts Conference?" This was the first thought that came to her mind. She quickly discovered groups of bald monks, Taoist priests, Taoist nuns, salt merchants, and other more distinctive factions ... With miss an\'s many years of experience watching martial arts movies, this group of people in front of her was most likely people from various factions.
"Ha ... Probably." Feng bujue continued,"by the way ... I feel like this scene is very familiar ..."
In fact, brother Jue had already deduced that the scenario would take place in the world of sword duel in Cang Ling. First of all, he had heard the name "octagonal tower" in the opening CG of the film. This organization was one of the "one mansion, two buildings, three sects, and four sects" in the sword duel in Cang Ling. Secondly, after deep communication with the illusion fiend church, brother Jue learned something ... The bell fiend that he had killed at the back mountain of Chang Lin town was actually one of the nine Chiefs of the undead under the command of the Hades abyss King. She was the same as the Lotus spirit on the devil\'s mouth Island, a former nine chief of the undead that had been exiled. This connection also indirectly proved that this scenario world existed in the main universe of Thriller Paradise. And all of the tournament scripts for fierce battle of four worlds were conducted in the main universe. That confirmed brother Jue\'s speculation.
"This is the scenario in Chang Ling town, right?" Several seconds later, RUO Yu understood the meaning behind Feng bujue\'s words and turned to answer.
"Eh?" When Xiao Tan heard that, he was confused."So that world is also in the main universe?"
"It\'s normal. " Feng bujue shrugged."Since there is a planet like \'the United States in the 1980s\' in the main universe, why can\'t there be a planet like China the 16th century?"
"Hmm ... You do have a point. We\'ve been to all the planets that are filled with rabbits that know how to use boxing ..." Xiao Tan nodded.
Just as they were conversing, suddenly! A figure flew into the sky and flew over the crowd\'s heads. He walked in the air and stood on a tall rock in the desert before the group of heroes.
It was a man in his fifties. He had a handsome face, a dignified appearance, a tall and sturdy figure, and an extraordinary appearance.
He was dressed in a green robe with a metal belt around his waist. He held the robe in his hand and wore a pair of boots. He did not wear any weapons.
"Heroes ..." After the man stood still, he looked down at the crowd below him and said,"greetings."
His voice was not loud, and he did not shout, but every word he said was clearly heard by everyone within a radius of several hundred meters.
"Internal energy communication, is it ..." Feng bujue rubbed his chin and mumbled."To be able to use it on so many people at the same time in such an open space ... It must be quite a powerful skill. Also, since he dared to jump to such a high place and speak so loudly to the entire martial arts world ... It means that his status in the martial arts world is also extraordinary. "
The next second, the reaction of those people explained the identity of "this Yuan."
"Greetings, Alliance master!" The crowd, both near and far, responded to similar words one after another.
"Oh ... It\'s the leader of the martial arts world ..." Feng bujue mumbled with a tone that said,\'he\'s just the leader of the martial arts world\'.
"Heroes, you don\'t have to be so polite." A few seconds later, Lord Alliance master cupped his fists in return and continued in a clear voice,"the current situation is urgent, and time waits for no one. I\'ll get straight to the point ..." He paused for half a second, then said,"I\'ve received reliable news that the Imperial court sent more than 100 experts from Shuntian Prefecture to the burial heart Valley here. They arrived not long ago." As he spoke, he turned around and gestured to the shadow of the mountain far behind him."After several inquiries, I finally found out ... There is a \'art of longevity\' hidden in the burial heart Valley. It is said that those who master it will be immortal and have eternal youth."
Before he could finish his words, there was a clamor from the crowd.
In fact ... It didn\'t matter whether he said it or not, because it was basically an "open secret". If the martial arts practitioners standing below did not know about the \'art of longevity\', why would they be so enthusiastic about coming to this desolate land?
"My fellow heroes!" The alliance leader paused for a moment and continued,"the \'art of longevity\' is a book created by people from the martial arts world. How can we hand it over to the Imperial court?" His tone instantly became impassioned."I think ... This matter must not be allowed!"
"That\'s right! You can \'t!"
"The Alliance master is wise!"
"We can\'t let the \'art of longevity\' fall into the hands of those lackeys!"
Hearing these responses, Alliance master Yuan nodded in satisfaction.""Today, I, Yuan, have invited all the heroes here to help me."
"I have a feeling ..." When he heard this, a smile suddenly appeared on brother Jue\'s face."...He\'s going to talk about something very shameless."
His words came true immediately ...
As expected, Alliance master Yuan\'s next sentence was,""As long as we gather the strength of all the sects, it will be a piece of cake to take down those dogs of the Imperial court." He waved his hand and waved his sleeve."However ... I\'m sure the Imperial court won\'t let this matter rest. They\'ll definitely send people to steal from burial heart Valley again. Therefore ... I think that the \'art of longevity\' should be jointly kept by the entire martial arts world. "
"The Alliance master is right!"
"We should be the ones keeping it!"
The sect leaders of several sects impatiently responded to Alliance master Yuan\'s call and shouted.
"Hehe ... I\'m drunk on this logic ..." Flower looked at the NPC in the sky with disdain and sneered,"let\'s not talk about the Ming Dynasty government in this world, even if they are a group of bandits ... This Alliance master seems to be saying,\'our neighbor has a treasure. To prevent bandits from stealing it, let\'s take it and keep it for our neighbor\'."
"Furthermore ..." RUO Yu continued coldly,"the so-called \'shared safekeeping of the entire martial arts world\'... To put it bluntly, he, the Alliance master, will be the one to safeguard it first, right? After the item falls into his hands, whether or not he will take it out again, or whether the item he takes out is real or fake ... That is not certain. "
"I think ... Even if he really has no choice and has to keep it with someone else," she said. Xiao Tan added,"he would have copied or memorized the spell before he handed the real one over."
"Hmph ... You\'re all too naïve," Hearing his teammates \'words, Feng bujue shook his head with a smile."If it\'s me ... Everyone here today, after being used by me ... Will not be able to walk out of this desert alive."
The few of them spoke without restraint, and their voices were not soft, but ... No one noticed them.
This was because, so far, the system protection time after entering the scenario had not passed.
Brother Jue and the others knew this very well. After all, they were all level 50 players and had plenty of experience in scenarios. They were familiar with the details of the game.
Looking at the current situation ... The four of them had suddenly appeared, and there were so many people standing nearby. However, not a single NPC had noticed their appearance. This was undoubtedly the reason for the system\'s protection.
"Since no one has any objections ..." Seeing that things were going smoothly, Alliance master Yuan continued,"... Then, let\'s not delay any further. The sun is setting now, the best time to enter the valley." It seemed that he had already done a very thorough investigation."There\'s a \'light fog\' in the burial heart Valley, so we can see at night. Everyone, come with me ... Let\'s annihilate those lackeys of the Imperial court together, find the \'art of longevity\', and protect it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the various sects were already in a hubbub, fighting to be the first to rush forward. In the blink of an eye, the hundreds of people had already rushed towards the valley a few kilometers away with Yuan. Wherever they passed, sand and dust were kicked up.
Only brother Jue and the other three stood where they were, looking at The Motley crowd with disdain.
[Main mission triggered]
[Killed four red Sakura members.]
At the same time, a mission notification popped up ... "
