First Player

Chapter 1056 Chapter One Thousand and Fifty-Four · "In the depths of the Nine Netherworlds, an old friend comes."

Chao Yan’s pupils trembled.

  Sometimes when they are communicating, they can easily tell what the other person is saying from a look in their eyes.

 She clenched her fists, as if she had made up her mind at this moment.

“Su Mingan, you are going to Jiuyou, right.”

"Yeah." Su Mingan said: "But it is very difficult for the army to advance. It has been in a stalemate here all night..."

Her back stood in front of her, her voice was decisive:

"Then - just go with me - I will protect you by myself."

The dawn of the tenth day of the dungeon can be vaguely seen in the distance. If we continue to advance like this inch by inch, I'm afraid we won't be able to reach Jiuyou in another day. As long as she burns with all her strength, it is not impossible to protect him and break through the defense line alone.

Su Ming'an was surprised... From Chao Yan's perspective, Su Ming'an only returned from the beach on the eighth day to the night of the seventh day. He had never touched the prophecy stone wall, and had never had a heart-to-heart with her.

"Are you willing to...believe me? As long as you are sent there first, others can also locate and send you there." She sounded hesitant: "If you don't trust me..."

Su Mingan looked at her figure as thin as a sharp sword and walked towards her.

 He cannot say that he knows everything. Trust can only be shown through actions.

Chao Yan’s eyes brightened slightly.

 “Let’s go.” Su Mingan said.

"Okay. I will do my best to protect you." Chaoyan responded.

 The blazing fire rose from her body, and pain rose in her brows, but was suppressed with self-control. His right hand wrapped around Su Ming'an's waist and led him to fly upward.

There was a sound of flames exploding, and a huge glow like a flaming cloud suddenly appeared on the originally silent black battlefield.

The red-haired girl hugged the old **** and jumped over a pile of black heads. She hugged his back with her right hand and held a blazing flaming sword in her left hand. With one sweep, all the traps and magic circles on the ground turned into ashes. ash.

White light pierced the black fog, and Mizushima Kawakora flew into the sky, blocking them in front of them.

"Su Ming'an! You can't go to Jiuyou, don't believe that the alien king will be your ally!" Mizushima Kawakora shouted.

Su Mingan stared at her.

"Su Ming'an, at that time I didn't expect that the Holy Sword would have such a big impact on you, and the gods didn't mean to kill you..." Mizushima Kawakora continued: "However, it's okay that you are still alive..."

 There was happiness in her tone, but also a hint of jealousy.

 Happily...he didn't die. The guilt of his death need not rest upon her. She will not suffer so much criticism and resentment and become a sinner of mankind.

 …But he actually has a loyal protector like Chao Yan. And there is only a **** with ulterior motives beside her.

 “I have nothing to say to you.” Su Mingan said.

The moment Mizushima Kawakora slashed the holy sword decisively in the sky, they were speechless.

 “Get out of here!”

Chaoyan's flame sword shot out a long ray of light and hit Mizushima Kawakora!

 “Boom—!”

With a loud noise, the holy sword collided with the flaming sword, and a strong repulsive force came. Mizushima Kawakora coughed out a mouthful of blood, and the holy sword almost dropped due to the high temperature. She covered her arms, her skin covered in purple-black burns.

The blazing hot wind blew past Su Mingan's ears, and he squinted his eyes. Chaoyan immediately lowered his left hand to block the side of his face, preventing the flying sparks from hurting his cheek. The right hand continued to strike Mizushima Kawakora with a sword!

 “Boom—!” A sword.

  【HP–1073! (Burning! Personality suppression!)]

 …

 “—!” Two swords.

  【HP–1243! (Continuous burning! Superimposed damage! Critical hit!)]

 …

 The third sword.

  【HP–2011! (Penetrating injury! Weak point attack! Critical hit!)]

 …

Bright red numbers kept jumping out of Mizushima Kawakora's body, and she was beaten to the left and right, like a spinning top.

 The spreading flames almost burned the sky red, and even the edges of Chaoyan's blue pupils were dyed with a bright color. Each sword was more powerful than the other, causing fire to fly everywhere, and the fire fell like a meteor.

 …

  【HP–2152! (Penetrating injury! Breaking move! Critical hit!)]

 …

When the fourth sword fell, Mizushima Kawakora flipped and fell like a turtle. When she fell, the entire ground was ignited with afterburns, and the goddess's costume was burned into pits.

She was lying in a dark pit with severe burns all over her body. Tissue fluid flowed from her limbs, but her dark eyes were fixed on Su Mingan in the sky.

 “Don’t…go…to…Jiuyou…” She lay on the ground and coughed up blood, her voice inaudible:

"Listen to the words of the gods...Su Ming'an..."

She stretched out her charred hands and touched the sky feebly. Even so, she actually wanted to stop Su Ming'an in the sky:

"do not go…"

Su Ming'an lowered his head and glanced at Mizushima Kawakora, and was shocked by the look in her eyes - it was difficult for him to describe the look in Mizushima Kawakora's eyes at this moment, resentment, pain, worry, jealousy, despair... too many complex emotions, gathered in her Eyes full of bloodshot eyes.

 …It’s like she really doesn’t want him to go to Jiuyou.

 The gods once said that if Su Mingan insists on continuing, he will be swallowed by the alien king. Therefore, the gods kept blocking him, hoping that he could spend twenty days safely. All the lies, imprisonment, brainwashing, and harm... seem to be for this purpose.

…Do not make jokes.

 The gods almost actually killed him.

This war called faith can only be fought by those who have become gods. If you don’t want to watch the world being destroyed, you can only go to Jiuyou.

  —This is the [destiny] that the "player" must carry out in order to complete the "main mission".

 He took a look at his perfect clearance progress and was shocked.

 …

 【TE1·(Successfully Destroyed the World) Perfect Clearance Progress: 95%】

 【TE2·(Achieve the highest level within twenty days) perfect clearance progress: 60%】

 【TE3·(Arrived at the final land of the old days and established an ideal hometown) Perfect clearance progress: 80%】

　　【TE4·(Raise the favorability of "Su Luolo" to 100 points - you need to go through all the plots with her, and you cannot use the skills of the person in power to forcibly increase the favorability) Perfect clearance progress: 80%]

 【TE5·(Help "Li Mingyue" establish a complete rule system) Perfect clearance progress: 80%】

 【TE6·(Within twenty days, "Chao Yan" will not die) perfect clearance progress: 0%】

 【TE7·(Be admitted to civil service and build a beautiful family of four) Perfect clearance progress: 0%】

 …

These values... are already frighteningly high. Only then did he realize that TE1 had reached such terrifying numbers.

 My ears are filled with scorching wind.

Chaoyan led him through five passes and killed six generals, chopping melons and vegetables along the way. The temperature on her body was getting higher and higher, and his skin made a squeaking sound from being burned.

 Her eyelashes are very close and her voice is extremely soft. Jiuyou was close at hand, and she suddenly asked:

 “...is it hot?”

 “It’s not hot.” ​​Su Mingan said.     It's actually very hot.

 “Do you want to turn back?” she asked.

　　It is very dangerous if you are afraid of Jiuyou. It's not too late to turn back now.

Su Mingan pursed her lips and shook her head.

 “Can’t look back.”

 Too many heroic spirits were floating in his mind, hugging his spine tightly, and he could not look back.

 “Then you…” There was a scent of lemon in her hair as she made the final confirmation:

"…Afraid?"

Are you afraid of it?

He went to Jiuyou alone. According to the gods, if the alien king had evil intentions, he would probably be devoured. At that time, not even the gods could save him.

Su Mingan’s eyes flashed.

 He was actually a little scared, because he had realized that real death might happen.

 But he still had to say—

　　… “…not afraid.”

  Don't let Chao Yan take the responsibility, don't let her worry.

 This is his own decision, so he cannot be said to be afraid.

She pursed her lips and sped up her sword more and more until the bright red light was right in front of her eyes—

"arrive."

Su Mingan lowered his head and saw that the ferocious Jiuyou was already very close. The terrifying magma is rolling, like a bottomless hell.

 He saw a man standing guard in front of Jiuyou.

His black hair is tied into a high ponytail, he is wearing a black cloak, and the snow-white fox fur on his shoulders is swaying in the wind. Holding the pipe in one hand, he blew smoke rings lightly with a smile on his lips.

 "Xiao Jingsan..." Su Mingan called out. He remembered that Xiao Jingsan had lost himself in exchange for power from the Alien King in order to get the body back.

“—It’s Xiao Ying.” Chaoyan’s voice was calm: “Xiao Jingsan has lost himself, and now it is Xiao Ying who controls his body. He came from a thousand years ago, and he doesn’t want you to set foot in Jiuyou.”

Su Mingan was slightly startled: "Why?"

Xiao Ying blew out a smoke ring and pointed his finger at the pipe.

He stared at Su Mingan for a second, then chuckled: "It's normal. People from thousands of years ago also had good and bad qualities. If I kill you, the three elements will be mine. The opportunity to become a **** is just around the corner. You are out of the army again." Protect…"

 Becoming a **** is indeed very tempting.

  Xiao Ying came from a thousand years ago and has accumulated a huge amount of combat power. Perhaps he was prepared for such moments.

Su Ming'an was ready to fight, but suddenly he heard the sound of a sword.

 Soon, his back was pushed by Chao Yan, and he fell downwards.

“—I stopped Xiao Ying. You go forward, Su Ming’an, go forward and don’t worry about what’s behind you.” Chao Yan’s calm voice.

 He landed on the mechanical roulette wheel, lying on the roulette wheel and moving forward. In front of him was the bottomless Jiuyou.

The bright red Hibiscus flower blooms on the cliff, swaying in the wind.

 He heard the sound of swords coming from behind, which was the sound of swords clashing.

 “Buzz-buzz-buzz-”

 He wanted to turn back.

 “Don’t look back, move forward.” Chao Yan’s voice.

 He wanted to look back and see how the battle was going.

Those actions of massacring the city were enough to make Xiao Ying very powerful. Chaoyan is almost exhausted, she may-

 “Don’t look back, walk forward, you must keep staring in the direction of Jiuyou...” Chao Yan’s voice said.

 The sound of swords ringing, the sound of talismans burning.

 The sound of fire crackling.

Even if he turned back, Su Mingan could not see the road clearly due to the thick fog. He could only hold on to the mechanical wheel tightly, and in the endless black fog, follow the direction she pushed - forward, forward.

 Her muffled sound was very clear.

The sound of burning flames, the sound of wind blowing through Su Mingan's black hair, squeaking.

"Don't look back...don't look back...even if it burns to the last moment, I will..." the voice became farther and farther away.

His fingers were clenched tightly, and his shoulders seemed to be bearing the weight of tens of thousands of pounds.

She shouldered everything and just asked him to move forward.

 All the sacrifices, all the costs, the thousand years of sustenance... are all for him to move forward.

The earrings seemed to be shaking, the dark blue ring shimmering with light, and the light spots in his mind were floating quietly, like an immortal soul.

 —It seemed as if countless people were watching him. Watching the pale young man lying on the mechanical roulette wheel, facing the hot wind on his face, he rushed towards the magma alone.

  Go forward...go forward.

—You will definitely fulfill your thousand-year wish, break the fate of endless eras, and end this conspiracy that spans hundreds of generations.

—You will definitely end this never-ending reincarnation, so that future generations will no longer have to bear the pain of the previous life, and everyone will gain the freedom of their souls.

 …

He felt pain screaming all over his body. The burns were spreading on his skin and biting his nerves. The closer he got to Jiuyou, the more intense he felt.

 “The white morning flowers are here, and the blessings of the world come to me in my dreams.”

 “Child, child…”

 “Please don’t leave and never come back, please don’t leave and never come back…”

 He pressed his chest, where a secret heartbeat could be heard.

The warning from the gods, the sad eyes of Mizushima Kawakora...

 …Don’t stop, Su Ming’an.

 You have already reached this point, so many people are trying their best to push you to this point...

 Until her voice could no longer be heard, it was as if a white bird was chirping long and loud in her ears——

Black hair touches the bright red Jiuyou, and his pupils are full of the vividness of Manzhushahua——

 …

 Early winter, 832 years old.

 To fulfill eternal wishes and to avoid reincarnation for hundreds of lives.

 The underworld offers sacrifices to fire, the body and the soul are heavy, the kingfisher weaves red, and the scholar enters the underworld.

—In the depths of Jiuyou, an old friend comes.

 …
