The Blasphemous Wizard of the Weird World

Chapter 356: Dead River Lord

in reality.

Yang Qizhou stretched hard, drank Coke, and analyzed the current plot at the same time.

The journey to the 'ancient village' was relatively smooth. Although we were attacked by the twisted 'blasphemous wizard' and experienced many fights, we did not encounter any real danger.

But that was just the appetizer.

What really matters is to cross the river with the help of the ancient village according to the hint of "fate".

only,
Judging from the current text, this "ancient village" that survived the catastrophe of the "Falling Day" and continues to this day seems to have some problems.

"When outsiders step into this land, the Lord will awaken, dawn will break through the darkness, light will cover the earth again, and everyone will be saved."

“Is this what the script really is?”

"Also, the guardian god of the 'Ancient Village'. Although the game characters have never met him and not much relevant information has been revealed, I still feel that there is something wrong."

"unexpected,"

"Yes, the existence of the 'Guardian' is too abrupt."

"In this 'Lost Heaven' where the rules are even more twisted, the monsters are even more terrifying, and the power is even more bizarre, is there really a god who can keep his sanity and protect the ordinary people in the village?"

"I hope I'm just overthinking it."

Yang Qizhou took another sip of Coke, and when he felt his agitated heart calm down a little, he turned his attention back to his phone.

He believes,
The game characters will also understand what you are thinking.

The game continues.

……

"The village chief's residence is not simple, but it is not as luxurious as one might imagine."

"Led by the 'village guard', you came to the front hall and sat in the guest seat. Someone had already poured water and placed it on your right hand side."

"Does this world also have the etiquette of pouring water for guests?"

"Your thoughts wandered, and you thought about the world before you traveled through time, and you were filled with emotion for a moment."

"Of course, you had no intention of drinking this glass of water. You always maintained a basic vigilance towards the 'Ancient Village'. The prophecy that had not been broken for thousands of years and the sudden 'Guardian God' made you feel a sense of disobedience."

"Not to mention that there is such a sentence in the hint of 'fate'..."

"The village chief may also kill himself."

"While you were thinking, an old man pushed the door open and walked in."

"The village guard stood up quickly and said:

"A traveler from a distant world, the savior of a lost paradise, a prophet, a great breaker of darkness, the one who brings the light of salvation to the Land of Truth. This is our village chief."

"You were confused by this long list of prefixes, and you didn't even have time to look at the village chief. You subconsciously asked... When did I have so many names?"

"But those are apt names, aren't they? Travelers from faraway worlds."

"A kind voice came from the village. It was not the village guard who spoke, but the village chief who just came in. He sat down next to you. He looked very calm, but there was still excitement in the depths of his eyes."

"A broad forehead, a big nose, white skin, fewer wrinkles, but not without, and wearing a white divine robe. This image is really deceptive."

"You looked around secretly. You didn't want to waste time in the ancient village, so you immediately explained your purpose..."

"Mr. Village Chief, the savior of the lost kingdom of heaven, the man of language, the light of salvation, these are too far away for me at the moment. Now I just want to cross the 'Dead River'. I beg for your help."

"Of course, helping the Savior reach the throne is the duty of the Ancient Village. It is also the reason why we are blessed by the 'Guardian God' and have survived to this day."

"The process went smoothly, and the village chief agreed very readily."

"You were not excited by this, but frowned, keenly aware of the message revealed in these words?"

"Village chief, may I ask, is the guardian deity's blessing on the ancient village due to the 'prophecy'?"

"You couldn't help but feel doubtful after all."

"The village chief's kind face froze for a moment, then quickly recovered. He first asked the village guards to leave, then said with a fanatical look on his face..."

"Of course, this prophecy of salvation was passed down by the 'Guardian God'. He said that one day, an outsider will set foot on this land. He is hope, light, and a savior. He will come to the ancient village to seek help. Before the prophesied day arrives, the ancient village cannot be destroyed by any strange terror."

"You analyzed this description and found no problem, so you asked again... What kind of deity is he, and what is his complete name?"

"'Guardian Angel' is 'Guardian Angel', that's all."

"The village chief looked as if it was a matter of course."

"You can see that this is not just the village chief's perfunctory response. In his eyes, the 'guardian god' is just the 'guardian god'. He has never had a clear understanding of this god who protects the ancient village."

"Did you ignore it?"

"Or maybe there is some guidance from the 'Guardian Angel' here."

"Because it's just speculation and lacks evidence, it's hard to come to a conclusion for now. So you put it aside and ask the most important question..."

"Village Chief, how can I cross the river?"

"The village chief had obviously anticipated this and replied with a smile... Of course we need a 'boat' to cross the river. Fortunately, there is a wooden boat moored at the back of the village. The rescuer can just use it."

"You're a little bit incredulous... is it that simple?"

"The village chief is confused... Is it really that difficult to cross a river?"

"After a pause, the village chief continued... Every month, people from the village take this wooden boat to go hunting on the other side of the river. This has been going on for thousands of years. There must be no problem."

……

Is it really that easy? Yang Qizhou lit a cigarette and frowned.

That was the Dead River, the embodiment of the world of death in reality, which was itself a great terror. In his opinion, the method of crossing the river must be very complicated, requiring designated rituals, the support of the "guardian god", and many dangers.

Can we get there by boat?

If it is really that simple, does "fate" need to give special hints?

"Whether it is true or not, we will know soon."

At this time, the text was refreshing automatically, and Yang Qizhou immediately turned his attention back to his mobile phone.

……

"Of course you didn't believe that the way to cross the river would be so simple and easy, but the village chief was very sure and would not change his words, so you didn't insist."

"You had originally planned to cross the river as quickly as possible, but the village chief was very enthusiastic and insisted on keeping you overnight, preparing a grand banquet to celebrate the savior's arrival in the ancient village, and told you to leave tomorrow morning."

"Because you couldn't find the 'wooden boat' without the guidance of the village chief, and because you were grateful, you finally agreed."

"certainly,"

"There is another more important reason why you stayed. You want to find out the true identity of the 'Guardian Angel' and whether the method of crossing the river by boat is feasible."

"Night is coming,"

"The horror of the night arrived as expected, and was even more intense than the old earth, but under the illumination of the bonfire, all the strange and terrible things retreated."

"The village chief kept his word,"

"The ancient village has prepared a grand banquet to welcome you, the savior. Everyone is rejoicing, looking forward to the light shining on the land of truth again."

"Although you are the protagonist of the feast and you also enjoy the hustle and bustle, you are hiding in the shadows at the moment, just like an audience watching a play."

"In order to avoid being disturbed, you used the power of the 'Dragon of the Mind' to impose a certain degree of hypnosis on everyone."

"Gradually,"

"The bonfire is getting dimmer and dimmer, and you are getting sleepier and sleepier, until a familiar voice comes to your ears... My Lord, you finally appear. I have waited too long for this day."

"You snapped your eyes open."

"The bonfire was still burning, but the flames had turned into a dark light green. The villagers who were singing and laughing in the ancient village also looked different. Their flesh was torn and their bones were rotten. They were actually the dead."

"Look up at the sky again,"

"The muddy river water flows endlessly on the sky. Through the river surface, one can vaguely see an ancient village that has long been reduced to ruins."

"You suddenly understood everything."

"The ancient village didn't last for thousands of years. Perhaps it was destroyed as early as the 'Day of the Fall' at the end of the Third Epoch. The souls of all the villagers fell into the dead river. It was only because of the interference of the 'Guardian God' that they thought they were still alive."

……

Looking at the contents of the text, Yang Qizhou suddenly understood a lot.

No wonder the ancient village has never been harmed despite being spied on maliciously in the darkness. No wonder the villagers can cross the Dead River with just a wooden boat, because they are not living people at all, but real dead.

"The villagers obviously didn't know about this. When the savior appeared, the excitement, the joy, and the anticipation for the light could not be faked."

"However, the village chief should know the truth."

Muttering to himself, Yang Qizhou flipped through the text and quickly found a line of words that read 'The village chief's kind face stiffened for a moment, then quickly recovered'.

"So, the last line of text in the 'Destiny' prompt is not a spoof to add drama, for some reason, the village chief wants to kill the game character."

at this time,

The text automatically refreshed line by line, and Yang Qizhou quickly turned his attention to it.

……

"You pondered for a moment, and suddenly realized that the 'village chief' knew the truth, and that the villagers had been deceived and did not know that they were dead."

"You thought about the prophecy of the 'savior' and the villagers' expectation for light and desire for salvation when they saw you, and you concluded that this should not be false."

"besides,"

"The village chief's cordial invitation to stay is definitely not out of genuine hospitality. He must have some sinister intentions, and it is most likely for this moment. Then he will reveal his true colors next."

"Thinking this in your heart, you raised your head and looked at everything in front of you."

"The village chief walked over. His once kind face was already rotten and oozing with pus and blood. The villagers followed him with their eyes closed. They were connected by a thread, like a giant human centipede."

"Just as you were about to move, you suddenly found that pale arms appeared out of thin air, tightly grasping you, and the breath of death was corroding your soul."

"You didn't panic, you looked at what was in front of you, and said expressionlessly... Should I call you the village chief, or the guardian of the 'Ancient Village', or the 'King of the Hidden Wizards'?"

"You know me?"

"The village chief looked stunned. What was even more bizarre and absurd was that... it was clearly an old man, but the voice he spoke was a woman's."

"Just as you were about to answer, you suddenly heard a crazy spiritual warning. Under the guidance of the Lord of Blasphemy, you knew that an invisible force was trying to erode you."

"You immediately used the power of 'Reverse Fate' to stop your own fate at the present moment."

"After sensing that the erosion had stopped, you relaxed a little and said calmly... Of course I know, because there is also a 'Secret Wizard King' active in the outside world. I have dealt with him many times, and his voice is easy to distinguish."

"The 'Village Chief' opened his eyes wide, realized that you were not lying, and said in surprise:"

"Impossible, I already... Wait, I know, it was Him, the ruler of the Eternal Darkness River, the destination of all death. He used the characteristics of the same sequence to control the 'secret' pillar that I was herding, and then replaced my identity."

"You suddenly realize,"

"It turns out that 'Secret' is really not 'Secret', but 'Lord of the Dead River'. He placed a heavy bet on himself long before 'Lord of the Dream Realm'."

"But what puzzles you is... why did the 'Lord of the Dead River' conceal his own existence and borrow the identity and power of the 'King of Secret Wizards'."

"To gain the trust of the 'King of Nature'?"

"What are the positions among the old gods?"

"As you were thinking, a terrible murderous intent surged like a wave. You could see an illusory tide surging around you. It was a mixture of the two symbols of 'secret' and 'death', ready to drown you."

"The fallen 'Secret Wizard King' seems to have a deep hatred for you and vows to kill you."

"pity,"

"The Lord of Blasphemy has a very powerful attribute. With the authority of 'Destiny Against the Current', even if the tides hit him, he cannot shake his fixed fate."

"You couldn't think of a quick solution for the time being, so you asked casually...Aren't you already dead?"

"die?"

"You saw the face of the 'Village Chief' suddenly become hideous... Of course I died on the day of my death, thanks to you. But I was lucky. At the last moment, I tore off a 'death' symbol from the 'Lord of Death' and lived in this tributary of the Dead River as a dead person, just to wait for your arrival."

"You think,"

"You tore off a symbol of 'death' from the 'Lord of the Dead River', but the 'Lord of the Dead River' took away a symbol of almost 'pillar' level from you. You were really completely defeated."

"You begin to wonder how to deal with the true 'Secret Wizard King' in front of you."

"At this moment, you saw a strange smile on the corner of the 'Village Chief''s mouth... My Lord, you have not yet reached the level of the 'Old King' and awakened all your memories, right? You must be very curious about the truth of the 'Fall'. Do you want me to tell you everything?"

"Would the real 'Secret Wizard King' be so kind?"

"You can't think of the old king's level. Just knowing the true face of the 'Unspeakable Land' itself will cause something terrible to happen. You immediately have a bad premonition and shut off your hearing, trying to stop it all."

"But at this moment,"

"A vague and familiar whisper sounded in my mind..."
