The Blasphemous Wizard of the Weird World

Chapter 8: The Dreamy Hidden King
The meaning between the lines is almost telling Yang Qizhou directly that there are good things in this room, so he should quickly push the door and go in.

The Dark Crow can be used four more times, so at worst he can just make another choice. Therefore, Yang Qizhou did not feel any psychological pressure and made a decision immediately.

"The explorer's greed has led you to make a bold choice once again."

"You pushed the door open and walked in,"

"You saw an altar full of evil, with strange statues enshrined on it and offerings made of human entrails placed around it. You suppressed your nausea and searched the room."

"You found a piece of rag stained with dark red blood on the altar."

"You picked up 'the rag stained with the blood of the great prince'."

Rag stained with the blood of the Great Lord (excellent): It was once just an ordinary rag, but was accidentally stained with the blood of the 'Lord of the Fantasy Hidden World'. It can be used as a medium for the holy relics of God's descent, and can also be used as a material for refining 'Old Things'.

This is most likely another evil god.

Yang Qizhou didn't know what to say. The game had just started and he hadn't even stepped out of the Novice Village yet, but he had already become involved with so many gods.

The ancient god of moonlight, the mother of beauty and fertility, the ruler of the dreamland, the lord of the night, the ancient god of fire thief.

Now here comes another dreamy hidden king...

You should know that any one of these names can be regarded as a big boss in other games.

Complaints aside, it's always nice to gain something, so Yang Qizhou continued to click on the text.

"As you picked up the 'rag stained with the blood of the great lord', you suddenly heard a dog barking, but there was no sign of a dog around."

"Your neck was bitten off."

"you are dead."

???

Well, this is a very Cthulhu way to die.

The narrator once again sneered at the arrogant explorer, asking whether he should use the power of fate to rewrite the outcome of death, or use the ability of the "Unlucky Crow" to return to the last time he made a choice.

Yang Qizhou analyzed it.
Stealing the 'rag stained with the blood of the army' would most likely alert the owner of the evil altar, and it would be impossible to sneak in again.

Judging from the information revealed in the text, there are obviously secrets in this house.

So Yang Qizhou's choice is... to use the power of the 'Desecrating Dark Crow'.

"You returned to the moment when you made your last choice. You saw the purple light flowing out of the room. You knew that there was an altar inside for worshipping the 'Lord of the Hidden World of Dreams' and that there were invisible monsters. If you pushed the door open and went in, you would definitely die."

"So you, despicable and shameless cheating explorer, choose to enter the room again and be bitten to death by an unknown monster."

"Let's look somewhere else."

Yang Qizhou chose the second option.

"You chose not to provoke the invisible monster. After all, having your neck bitten off is not a pleasant experience. Of course, you would not admit that it was because of fear. You comforted yourself by saying that continuing to search the house might yield more results."

"You searched many places again, but found nothing."

"You walked into the study,"

"You found a diary, and the contents made you feel strange and horrified."

"I had a dream. This dream was so beautiful. There was no omnipresent horror or trembling, and no horrible evil that could appear at any time in the wilderness. I was able to fall asleep peacefully to the singing of the great being."

"I am waking up. I am terrified and desperately trying to hold on to this dream, but I cannot do it because this area has been controlled by the evil god and the great light cannot shine here."

"No no no no……"

"I will never allow anyone to take my dream away, not even the evil god."

"I want to let the great glory shine here again."

"Just wait, everyone will be saved."

"You threw the diary away in horror, thinking that the person who wrote it had a serious brain problem."

"You heard footsteps outside, and you knew the owner of the house had returned, so you panicked and hid."

"The owner of the house came in and noticed that his diary had been tampered with. He knew that a thief had sneaked in."

"You have been discovered by the owner of the house."

"You suddenly heard a dog barking. You thought of the horrific experience at the evil altar and tried to flee in terror. Before you could even get a clear look at the owner of the house, your head was bitten to pieces."

"you are dead."

Familiar formula, familiar taste, after playing for a while you will be able to summarize the 100,000 ways for the protagonist to die.

Yang Qizhou turned his attention to the strange place again.

Fortunately, I came to my senses quickly.

The current revelation of the world view is just the tip of the iceberg, and nothing can be analyzed, so he is too lazy to analyze it.

The game continues.

This time, Yang Qizhou did not use the ability of the 'Desecrated Dark Crow' and chose a normal resurrection.

"You opened your eyes again in the residence arranged by Ishu."

"You recall the contents of the diary and feel horrified. You feel that something big is going to happen in the Fire Stealing Village."

"Ishu is back, and he said that Captain Lianna wants to meet with you after learning about Alicena's situation. However, it will be dark soon, and the villagers must immediately start the 'stealing of fire', so the meeting can only wait until tomorrow."

"You wanted to tell Yixiu what you saw and heard in the big house, but you hesitated in the end. The owner of the big house obviously has a high status in the Fire Stealing Village. You can't be sure whether this night watchman is a human or a wolf."

"Ishu saw your doubts and said that if you have something to say, you can just say it."

"You changed the subject and asked about 'stealing fire'."

"Your superb acting skills fooled Isu, and he told you the whole story of 'stealing fire'."

"The Ancient God of Fire Stealing is a great god who has been active since the last era. He once stole the fire that illuminates the darkness from the gods of the astral world and protected his followers from being devoured by the terrors of the night."

"Every night, the villagers hold a 'stealing fire' ceremony, stealing the flames of the gods from the stars to light the lamps in their homes, so as to ensure that they will not be swallowed by the terror of the night."

So that's how it is, Yang Qizhou suddenly realized.

He had felt strange before. Since there was terror in the night, the earth should have been desolate and deserted long ago. How did the people in the Fire Stealing Village survive? Now he understood. The villagers relied on the protection of the Ancient God of Fire Stealing and used the fire stolen from the gods of the star realm to illuminate the darkness and resist the descendants of the Lord of Night.

Of course, this is just an inference based on the information currently disclosed. As to whether it is true, it remains to be verified.

The game continues.

"The next day, you met the captain of the Nighthawks, Lianna. She did not immediately ask about the information about the suspected 'Old God believer' Alicena. Instead, she asked about the situation of the 'Moonlight Ancient God Sacrifice Site.'"
