Players’ NPC daddy

"I guess this thing is the key to going to the underground world. [Water] has always played the role of separating two opposite worlds. The Styx that divides life and death, the river that divides the regional environment, etc. The key is the reference object."

"If it is a person, water is the dividing line between the inner and the outer. If it is the sun..."

Chicken didn't continue speaking, but gave the identity of the person who revealed the answer to Blaze.

"The sun in the sky, and the sun in the earth!"

Blaze slapped the Eight-foot-high Water Mirror, his face full of surprise.

"As long as we place it under the sun in the sky, what will be reflected will naturally be the sun underground. Passing through the water mirror will be like traveling from the world of the sun in the sky to the world of the sun underground!"

"This is a teleportation item!"

"That's right." Ji nodded with satisfaction, then wiped her sweat secretly. She was about to feed the food into Blaze's mouth before Blaze took it.

I'll have to let Blaze practice making meaningful expressions more often in the future.

Blaze picked up the Yata Water Mirror. In order to prevent the water inside from being some special prop, he used a kettle prop to collect the water first, and then put the Yata Water Mirror into the warehouse.

After doing all this, Blazer carefully touched every detail inside the Tianyanhu, and only sighed with regret after making sure that there was nothing.

He thought he could find some other magical tools, such as the Sun Head Secret Technique.

When leaving, Blaze wanted to leave a surprise for the Hundred Demons and Snake outside, but he didn't expect that the Tianyan Door was closed and there was no intention of opening it at all.

Obviously, the only one who can open the Iwado is Amaterasu, and now that Amaterasu has been taken away, the Iwado has become inaccessible without using a shield jump through the wall.

"...Anyway, when a stranger sees this stone, his first reaction is definitely not to look for the key, but to try to shield jump through the wall, so it doesn't matter whether it can be opened or not."

Considering that there might be strangers coming in the future, Blaze specially hung a sign inside and wrote in a sincere tone.

[This place has been searched clean]

……

"This, this is a big event..."

After seeing that the guild members spent several days to create a new sun trail, Dali Feizhuan couldn't help but smile.

The original sun's path deflected exactly 12 times, marking the positions of the twelve beasts, but now it only deflects 9 times, which means that three of them have fallen into the hands of other players.

"We checked several turning points of disappearance. One of them was nothing special, but major events occurred at the remaining two. Perhaps they are related to the Twelve Beasts." A member wearing glasses reported, and attached information on several major events.

It is said that this guy is doing market research offline. Because the research is so comprehensive, he is often suspected of using illegal means.

"In other words, the Twelve Beasts could be a reward for clearing a dangerous dungeon, or they could be small statues enshrined in a small land temple, accessible to those with a predestined relationship."

Dali Feizhuan covered his face with his hands, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

“This is too casual.”

"It is said that these designs are based on the settings in Jin Yong's martial arts novels, such as falling off a cliff to obtain peerless magic skills, or dusty heirlooms." The member with glasses calmly revealed more information, and as he kept talking, the people present gradually moved away.

The man stood in front of a window with excellent light transmittance. The bright sunlight made his figure seem illusory. His face was completely shrouded in shadow. The simple white light of a pair of glasses made him look particularly terrifying.

"Did this person use illegal means? Is that what you think?" The member with glasses adjusted his glasses, looked around with indifference and covered his ears, fearing that he would become the beneficiary or party A of the illegal act.

"Don't worry, this time the normal method is just to let my men collect all the information on the Internet and summarize it."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"I just used it a little when urging my men..."

"We have to act quickly, otherwise all the early selection spots will fall into the hands of other players." Dali Feizhuan hurriedly interrupted this terrible topic and got to the point.

"Speaking of which, this world championship is an individual competition." It would have been fine if the member with glasses didn't say anything, but as soon as he started to speak, the atmosphere became wrong.

"If the Twelve Beasts are some kind of item with super combat power, and their use is not restricted, then if they are in the World Championships... after all, is it hinting that holding the Twelve Beasts will allow one to directly enter the top 32?"

Dali Feizhuan's mouth twitched as he looked at his companions who were like brothers in the previous second, but had become passers-by in the next second?

There is a saying that goes, there is no first in literature and no second in martial arts. If collecting the twelve beasts is considered a warm-up for the world competition, then there is no need to cooperate. Everyone is just vying for a position at the starting line.

After each member left, Dali Feizhuan looked helplessly at the member with glasses.

"I said, the authorities would never make such a suggestion."

"I know that this planner is just desperate and trying all sorts of methods."

"You seem to have casually revealed something terrible." Dali Feizhuan felt that the frequency of his sighs had increased. "Why did you say those inflammatory words?"

"No, I just enjoy the feeling of sending 99+ private messages in the background." The member with glasses slowly raised his hands, and the pale light of the glasses seeped out from between his fingers.

"Otherwise I'll feel like I've been abandoned by the world. Secrets, only secrets can keep everyone by my side, hehe, hahahaha—"

"Everyone's true colors will be revealed in the online world to some extent."

Dali Feizhuan rubbed his shoulders to drive away some of the chill, then looked around and approached the member with glasses with a guilty conscience.

"that……"

"Do you also want information and want to be closely connected with me!?"

The expression of the member with glasses was a typical yandere face, which almost scared Dali Feizhuan to jump up, but for the sake of the Twelve Beasts, he still gritted his teeth and continued asking.

Chapter 522 Fruits Still Need to Be Sold

There is an extremely expensive item in this world called space teleportation item. They have a single effect and can only build a passage between two different locations.

However, businessmen have added many new features to this simple function, such as providing various visual effects during teleportation, or adding other functions besides teleportation, such as defensive magic.

The price of space teleportation props has been rising steadily. In the eyes of ordinary people, their decorative value is higher than their practical value, and they are considered collectibles.

One of the reasons for such a crazy price increase is that space teleportation props are all disposable props. Whether it is the krypton gold prop [Emergency Escape Device] or the randomly teleported [Lost Scroll], once used, the prop itself will be consumed.

Even wealthy strangers would sometimes weigh whether it was a loss to die at the resurrection point and then be resurrected, or to use a one-time expensive teleportation item. Young and weak strangers would often choose death teleportation, that is, to return to the town by dying.

So far, there is no teleportation item that can be used infinitely.

Blaze looked at the water mirror in front of him and fell into deep thought. After a long time, he raised his head blankly. The water in the basin was almost dried up (an exaggerated complaint), and nothing strange came out of it.

After leaving Takama-ga-hara, Blaze immediately placed the Yata Water Mirror on the ground, poured water into it, and looked at the water surface with anticipation, waiting for the transmission channel to be opened.

"Is this thing broken? Or is our inference just our own imagination?"

"Could it be because the conditions on both sides of the water are different?" Chicken stood far away and gave Blaze advice like a cheerleader.

"It's different... If the underground world revolves around the underground sun, then the underground sun should naturally always be at the highest position in the sky. In other words, in order to map the sun going underground, we need the sun at the highest point in the sky."

"If this is true, then the placement of the Eight-foot Water Mirror should also be carefully considered..."

If Amaterasu is taken as a reference object, her face, or the sun head itself, symbolizes the sun at the highest point, and Ama-Iwato is the center of the entire Takamagahara.

It seems that the correct way to use the Yata Water Mirror should be to place it between the sun in the sky at the highest peak and the sun on the earth, so that the three points form a straight line.

This completes the state of [water separating the two worlds], so crossing the water in the Eight-foot Water Mirror is equivalent to passing through the ground world and arriving at the underground world.

It's the same principle as [the one who kills the God of Light is the God of Darkness, and whoever kills the God of Light is the God of Darkness].

Speaking of the center of the world, it just so happens that...

"The center of the world [U-22]."

Blaze opened the blessing, and the red box read [U-22]. Once upon a time, an old man, who was frail and frail, said very seriously that this location was the absolute center of the world.

If it was the center of power, or the center of authority... then he would not be able to help but smile secretly. If the throne could be usurped like this, how "careless" it must be.

So it is mostly the geographical center.

But if the Yata Water Mirror requires an absolute center without any deviation, then he would have to ask some of the parties involved.

This Yata Water Mirror has no durability, but the sun will only reach its highest peak once a day. If it fails, you have to wait until the next day.

When it comes to the person involved, the first thing that comes to Blazer's mind is the old lion who is enjoying his life. This guy is living a leisurely life. He runs around everywhere, while the lion lies there every day enjoying life.

Goblin villages are not built, but everyone who enters a goblin village will go to the temple of the old lion first, and all the benefits will be taken by this old guy.

Since the entire Goblin Village was under the protection of the old lion, it was impossible to build a teleportation tower. Blaze could only find the nearest inn and teleport to Balkan City first, intending to transfer from Balkan City to the Goblin Village.

Returning to the Balkan city, Blazer had many feelings.

There are really few foreigners...

Strangers especially like to go to popular areas. Nowadays, Arcadia is crowded with people. Most of them are strangers who have just been born as Arcadian people, and there are also many strangers who want to find [Silver Blood] or a substitute.

In comparison, Balkan City is really unpopular. In the past, there were some newbies and strangers here, but now it can really be said to be quiet.

But silence also has its advantages. Blaze doesn't have to hide himself and can walk on the street openly.

Then he ran into an acquaintance.

"what are you doing here?"

Blaze stood in front of a vendor, looking like a gangster collecting protection money. But Blaze had already lifted the vendor's hat and confirmed that it was Odin.

"Of course it's to maintain the title of best vendor and make some extra money." Odin leisurely fiddled with the fruits on the stall, then smiled meaningfully.

"Can't you just talk properly?"

"Cough cough cough--" Odin was choked by Blaze, and his meaningful smile could no longer be suppressed.

"You must be thinking of doing what you did before, using the excuse of selling fruit to tell riddles to strangers passing by, instructing or tricking them into doing something?"

"Cough cough cough--" Odin coughed even louder, and this was almost an act of giving up on quibbling in the face of trial.

Blaze shook his head helplessly.

"I don't have any problem with your habit, but you should at least go to a place where there are more foreigners."

"The entry barrier to those popular cities is a bit expensive." Odin rubbed his hands, his awkward movements revealing a sense of sadness that came from his own actions.

As a ruler who doesn't mind playing tricks, Odin doesn't have many edges to begin with, and over the years, he has polished himself to be extremely smooth.

"Then what is your goal this time? Hasn't Balder been defeated?" Blaze looked at the exit of Balkan City, a little absent-minded.

"This is the aftermath. The big picture I laid out was burned down by a fire, and now I have to pick up the ancient wisdom buried in the ashes and pass it on to more people."

Odin wiped the apple in his hand and handed it to Blaze.

"I once wanted to use this ancient wisdom to create more powerful soldiers, but now it seems that its final use is to record that we once existed in this world."

"Blazer, I wish you to meet the 24 old Feysacs during your journey, and I hope you can obtain the secret of Rune."

Chapter 523 Giving Foreigners the Right to Education

Why do people say that foreigners are all geniuses?

As we all know, using magic depends on intelligence, and requires a hard-core understanding of various types of magic and elemental theory. As long as the attributes of the stranger are sufficient, he can learn any magic.

This kind of talent is enough to kill those magicians who have devoted themselves to study for decades, and who are eventually forced to give up being human and transform into evil dark creatures to continue studying for hundreds of years before they have barely gained enough knowledge.

Blaze never thought he could learn any real magic. He was a warrior with a firm belief in strength.

But if you ask him if he wants to study, he will still shamelessly say that he actually has a studious heart and wants to develop all-roundly, but his brain is not full of potential.

But Rune magic is different. Its essence is that someone once brought the mysteries of the universe to this world in the form of words, and just by writing down the words one can summon the miracles of magic.

The one who brought Rune to this world was the one-eyed old man in front of him.

"I wanted to teach Rune to humans so that I could prepare more Rune warriors for the end of the world. But unfortunately, I was pushed off the throne before I could do so."

Odin spread his hands, showing Blaze what he looked like as an old and lonely man.

"I was planning to play an old man like this and spread the secrets of Rune, but I ended up becoming such a lousy old man."

"You can always return to Asgard and be a puppet king. No one will stop you."

"Puppet, Puppet King!?" Odin was stunned. For the first time, he wondered if he had become extremely old and even his ears were not good.

"Nonsense, now Asgard has passed a civil vote and officially become a member of the Giant Kingdom Alliance. Now Lord Fast Marica is in charge of the army, and [Hermes's Brigade Hat] is leading the economic recovery. You can only act as a puppet king at most."

Blaze once joked about making Odin the king of Asgard again, but it was really just a joke.

The throne will corrupt a person. No matter how kind a person is, once he sits on it, he will change himself involuntarily. And Odin was not a good king in the past. Who knows if Odin's old illness will relapse after he regains the throne?

Although he said he disliked this old man, if they really had to fight against each other one day... he would still feel regretful.

"You kid, you still don't understand the weight of the word 'orthodoxy'. Do you know how many people at the end of the Age of Gods wished that the 'World Tree' would be destroyed, and couldn't wait to become our legitimate successor?"

"Okay, okay, I want to know more about Runes. Can I use magic by drawing those figures?"

Odin wanted to teach him a lesson, but when he found that Blaze was just treating him as a stupid, stubborn and conservative old man, he had to give up the topic.

"The prerequisite for using rune magic is to first learn the rune language. Learning here does not mean simply knowing the words, but engraving them into your soul like learning a skill, and obtaining the complete Rune Alphabet before you can use it."
