I Became a God in a Horror Game - Chapter 569

[Chapter 555 The Lost Country of Gold]

The moment Mu Ke finished reading the fairy tale, everyone’s system panel jumped out:

[System prompt: Congratulations on unlocking the main quest]

[This is a country of gold that is paying the price, please find the key item, the hourglass of time, The pain of the Golden Kingdom turns into tears and is contained in the hourglass. When the hourglass is loaded with the pain that satisfies the gods, sacrifice to the gods in front of the altar, complete the transaction, reverse the time, and change the Golden Kingdom back to its original state.

】

“The hourglass of time?” Mu Sicheng frowned and asked, “What is this?”

“It should be a tool in this copy that can reverse time.” Liu Jiayi replied, frowning lightly, “…Reversing time, the effect of this item is similar to that of the Golden Dawn captain’s skill?”

“Could it have anything to do with it?”

“The skill? It is derived from the player’s desire core, and the item is a god, or Said to be the setting of the system.” Bai Liu stroked his chin thoughtfully, “This is the first time I have seen time items and time skills in the game. relationship, it should be that people’s desires are affected by the existing settings, thus deriving similar objects.”

“According to this inference, the captain of the Golden Dawn, Georgia, maybe there is some kind of us in this country? We don’t know the close connection.”

“If this speculation is true, this may be a breakthrough, but it is also their advantage.” Bai Liu spread his hands, “They must be more familiar with this map than us, such as? , We don’t know where to find this so-called hourglass of time, and most of the Georgia captain knows.”

“But we are not completely clueless.” Mu Ke raised his head, he raised his hand The fairy tale book on the page turned to the previous pages, “Although the hourglass of time is not explicitly mentioned in this fairy tale, this is a drawing fairy tale book, and the accompanying pictures here—”

Mu Ke pointed to some pictures in the fairy tale book in the style of children’s drawings: “It’s about the time when God made a deal with the ancient Loren Kingdom a thousand years ago. Did you see it? When the deal was established, the things God handed to the king ”

This should be the proof of their transaction.”

Bai Liu’s eyes swept away, and his eyes stopped on the hand of the god on the screen

— the hand of the god is a delicate gray-black hourglass.

Meanwhile, the other end.

“The hourglass of time?” Chris looked at the silent Georgia, “Captain, since you are familiar with this place, do you know what it is and where is it hidden?”

Georgia was silent for a moment .

, speak again Chris has been unable to find any trace of emotions, calm enough to not have a trace of turbulence: “I know.”

“It’s just that there is some danger in that place, tell the other team members to prepare mental bleach and come with me? Come?

” Mental bleach?” Chris quickly asked, “Is that a place with a lot of mental pollution?”

“Well, not only mental pollution, but also serious physical pollution.” Georgia raised her eyes, “The hourglass of time is in the gold mining area. ”

George finished speaking, and looked down at the fairy tale book in his hand – different from what Bai Liu and the others got, the fairy tale book in Georgia’s [Golden Kingdom of the Dependents of the Gods] did not exist in a thousand years. The time to pay the price stopped abruptly, and there was no mention of the hourglass of time, but a detailed description of the process of the transaction between the ancient Laurent king and the gods at that time.

“Father.” The young Georgia raised her head and asked her father in a puzzled way, “Why is my fairy tale book different from other people on the market?”

— it could even be said, It was a very different fairy tale.

Fairy tales read by children in the market are sweet? Innocent, God loves the world, but? In the fairy tale book Georgia got, God does not love the world, even a little scary, because the god smiled and said to the king , then, I will come to charge all your people the price of pain, and you will fill this hourglass with their tears, or the pain will never stop.

The king at the time agreed, and he asked the god, what kind of tears would it take to fill this hourglass.

God told the king that the hourglass must be filled with tears that can be worth the pain of a thousand years of gold in an instant. When the tears fall into the hourglass, the hourglass and time are reversed together, and the transaction is completed. , the pain ceases.

Georgia asked suspiciously: “Does this hourglass really exist?” The

king was silent for a while: “It exists, but everyone doesn’t know it.”

“Why not let everyone know?” Georgia shook his head in disapproval, “Everyone sees it? In fairy tales, it is said that God bestows gold and blessings because he loves the world. They believe that they are those who are favored by God, so they can live well? So…”

“Happiness?” The king sighed as he touched it. Touching Georgia’s head, “But what’s the use of telling them the truth, telling them that there really is an hourglass that needs to be filled with pain and tears, other than making them less happy?”

Georgia was stunned .

.

“In everyone’s mind, Guloren has always been a country of gold that is isolated from the world.” The king stood up on the edge of the bed. He walked out the window, bathed in the moonlight, and looked at the lush and peaceful country, disappointed. He sighed, “This is a fairy tale country. Everyone believes that they live in fairy tales, that they are favored by gods, and that disaster will never come.”

“That’s why fairy tale books in this country are so popular. ”

Even the fairy tales here.” The king turned his head and looked at Georgia, “will stop at the moment when a thousand years have to pay the price.”

“It’s not me? Deliberately let everyone not know, cut out the second half of the fairy tale? I deceived them. At the beginning, the fairy tale book that was promoted nationwide was the one in your hand.” The

king spread his hands helplessly: “But It was the people who resisted fiercely. They felt that fairy tales are not like this, and the country of gold will not be like this. Everyone should be full of hope and happiness, and live in fairy tales forever without worries, so I deleted With the second half removed, this fairy tale can be carried out.”

“But this is just…” Georgia shook his head lightly, his education made him unable to speak critically to the voices of the people , but? He really didn’t agree, so he frowned, “It’s just…”

“It’s just self-deception, right?” The king smiled wryly, “Sometimes I think it’s okay to deceive myself like this, and I’ll be happy too. When I deceive myself, I deceive myself that the thousand years will never come, and that the gods will indeed belong to our country forever.”

“But the thousand years will come.” Georgia replied firmly, “It’s like Gold will come as promised, and so will pain.” The

king stared at Georgia for a while, then turned his head to lean on the fence, lowered his head and muttered to himself: “…Georgia, you don’t run away from pain. I’m ashamed of myself.”

“When I became king, when I got the crown, I got an hourglass.”

“Every Gregorian king gets a crown, but few Some people know that with the succession of the king’s status, there will also be an hourglass. It is said that this is the hourglass of time passed down from generation to generation by the first king.”

“The day I became king, my predecessor was about to die. Now, he has been tortured by the disease for a long time, and the pain is unbearable. When he was dying, he let me put the hourglass on his face, squeezed the tears hard, and finally shed a drop. He looked forward and ecstatic. With this tear that dripped into the hourglass.”

“He longed for the tear to fill the hourglass and end the millennium’s trade, but unfortunately, the tears that fell into the hourglass were like water drops into the sea, without sound.”

“The last king died in agony and astonishment. Before he died, he held his hand tightly and told me that the millennium was coming, and before the gods came to take the pain of the people, the king It is our duty to fill the hourglass.”

“—[Never let the children who grew up in fairy tales do not believe in fairy tales, it is the king’s dereliction of duty], he told me so Yes.” The

king turned his head, his eyes were a little red, and his lips were trembling: “So on the night I lost your mother, I thought of this hourglass, I tried to fill it, but I flowed for a while. Tears at night, so many tears fell into this hourglass, not even filling the gaps.”

“I started to fear this hourglass, even the tears shed by those who died and lost their loved ones were dissatisfied, I I don’t know what pain in this world can fill this hourglass.”

“So I escaped, I cowardly hid this hourglass in the mine where gold was born.”

“In hiding the hourglass After entering the mining area, I started to have nightmares frequently.” The king’s face was filled with palpable fear, “I would dream of that god.”

“He smiled and told me, the thousand-year agreement. He’s coming, and he’ll come to the world, take off the shield, reduce the gold production, and take our pain.”

“Then take off the shield and reduce the gold production.” The young Georgia showed An unreasonable calm came out, “We shouldn’t exchange the suffering of the people for these golds that do not belong to us. After this period of time, everything will be fine again.”

“No. It will be all right!” The king burst into tears, and he became hysterical, with unconcealed fear on his face, “When there is no gold, everything will be utterly ruined!”

“We have been through a The life of sleeping on gold for thousands of years, everyone lives in fairy tales, no one can imagine that gold cannot be dug out of the ground, and by that time, everyone will starve to death and freeze to death!”

“Before the millennium comes, I must find a way to fill the hourglass,” his father said through tears.

Unfortunately, the hourglass was not filled until the last moment.

Georgia lowered his eyes: “Go to the mining area to find an hourglass.”

At the same time, the other end.

The inhaled dust made Mu Sicheng cough several times. He covered his mouth and nose and wiped the bulletin board of a building.

They are still running maps to gather information, looking for the possible location of the hourglass of time.

The good news is that there is no interference from the enemy, and they scan the map very quickly. The bad news is that there is no interference from the enemy, and most of them are going in the wrong direction.

But this dungeon map is really too big, Mu Sicheng is very fast moving, but even if he scans the map at full speed, he can’t run to either side of the border for a while. He brought a headset with him. , while running forward and reporting information to the rear, he collects the information and processes the information later, so that the scanning speed will be much faster.

“I saw a department bulletin board.” Mu Sicheng’s choking voice became louder and louder, “Cough, it was filmed and sent to Mu Ke, you see? Look?”

Soon, Mu Ke was noisy. The voice came from Mu Sicheng’s headset: “It’s the bulletin board of the Golden Publishing Office.”

“The Golden Publishing Office?” Mu Sicheng asked suspiciously, “What kind of peculiar department is this??”

” Not sure, but? Judging from the content of the announcement, it should be the official department that manages the issuance and operation of gold?” Mu Ke explained smoothly, “There are a total of three announcements on this bulletin board.”

“The first one is It is a pity to announce that there are 57 mining sites in the country, and 7 large mining sites have continued to decline in gold mining for two consecutive years. In the last six months, the total amount of gold mined has even been less than one ton, which cannot even maintain the operation of the country.”

“Article 2 The announcement is to announce the recent suspension of the welfare policy that every adult citizen can receive 600g of gold for free every month.”

“The last announcement is…” Mu Ke’s voice became hesitant for a while, “Please wait a moment, this announcement has been smeared, I can’t see clearly.”

Mu Sicheng hugged his chest. With a sound, he glanced at the last bulletin of the bulletin board that he had wiped clean–actually, I can understand why Mu Ke couldn’t see this one clearly, this bulletin was smeared very badly , was marked with a lot of exclamation marks with a red marker, densely packed, and looked very emotional.

“I’ve probably read the last announcement clearly.” Mu Ke’s voice was still hesitant, “but I’m not sure if I translated it right.”

“The specific content of the announcement is that the royal family of Gloren The heir (that is, the eldest prince) insisted on promoting cooperation with the Heresy Management Bureau, requiring the Heresy Management Bureau to settle in the ancient Loren country, and severely claimed that the gold produced in the mining area was heretical, which would have a negative impact on people, and prohibited the public from mining privately. Ask the people to stay away from the mining area and prepare to hand over the mining area to the Heresy Processing Bureau.”

”

The smeared words on it should have been written by the emotional people at the time.”

Get out of the Ancient Loren Kingdom!], [The Heresy Processing Bureau is here to steal our gold, get out of the Ancient Loren Kingdom!].”

“[How come the production of gold has declined?! Is the other gold produced in the mining area being used by ?The traitor Georgia has hidden and returned the hidden gold to us!]”

“[Georgia is going to die!!].”

After a while, Bai Liu’s calm voice came from the headset: “It seems, We already know the most likely place to hide the hourglass.”

“Mu Sicheng, prepare mental bleach, pay attention to the time limit for the use of skills, and go to the mining area.”
