I Created the Myth of the Old Ruler

Seven hundred and forty-eight. Dawn

The kingdom of night.

breaking Dawn.

The blood moon dissipated, and the quiet night enveloped the earth again. The flickering spiritual torches gradually extinguished, like the lights of thousands of houses sleeping peacefully.

In a candle-lit fortress, players sit on the ground, exhausted.

Although under the light of the spiritual torch, the insect swarm could not get close to the Gray Tower for thousands of miles, but this kind of mental tension made the body extremely tired. Moreover, the players also organized some exploration teams to search for the boundary of the spiritual torch's light. , to help the residents and guards of the Kingdom of Darkness who may be under attack.

Although there was only one day in real time, most players went offline to recharge, eat, and sleep for a while. To them, it was like working overtime all night, but the mental torture was enough to make people feel several times more tired.

Therefore, when the blood moon finally disappeared and the world returned to normal, many players did not even think of asking for rewards, but simply logged off and fell asleep.

In dreams, many people dream of many things, such as the green aurora crossing the sky, the eternal flames burning underground, the huge red planet drifting alone in the universe, and the deep abyss under the deep sea. with open eyes.

As the blood moon disappeared, the cold and indifferent words of "Land of Silence" began to appear in Lu Jian's field of vision.

[Resist the invasion of the demon tide: 1/1]

[Build Gray Tower: 1/1]

[Congratulations on completing the task]

Now, Lu Tuan can choose to return at any time.

Of course, before that, he needs to close the connection between [Morning Star] and this place to prevent some restless souls from staying in a foreign land.

But it seemed that the other fellow travelers had no plans to leave immediately.

Stone and Shia both looked at Drizzt.

Because they knew that this might be their last chance to see Drizzt.

"We need to find a way to go to the past of Lu Jian's world, and then deceive the world at that time."

Shia was still thinking about how to save Drizzt, but the detective shook his head.

"No."

He replied, glancing at Stone again.

“Having lived here for so long and witnessed so much, I’ve figured it out.”

Drizzt did not show any expression of sadness or regret, instead, he showed confidence and determination.

"Civilizations in foreign lands are struggling hard. It is very difficult to survive the threat of the old rulers. Even if it costs millions of lives and thousands of sacrifices, it is not enough."

"In contrast, if you can save a world with the life of just one person, or a few people, that is extremely lucky."

He looked at the spiritual torch, the dimly lit pale flame, in which was the condensed soul of several mages, the embodiment of Jost's own will. With their own sacrifice, they became the gods of human beings in foreign lands, and continued of this world.

This is the cage.

"So, if I can really save Lu Jian's world with my own sacrifice, then it will be a pretty good deal for me."

Drizzt looked at Lu Tan and showed a relaxed smile.

"Moreover, I know very well that I don't have much time left. I have only a little sanity left, and I am only one step away from madness. Rather than ending myself in confusion, it is better to be calm and accept my fate."

Hearing this, Stone grabbed Drizzt's hand.

"No, you can't do this. We have a way to protect your life while saving the world. Things can still turn around."

He said, thinking that there was no need for Drizzt to sacrifice himself, he could live longer.

"I know myself well."

Drizzt patted Stone's shoulder lightly.

"If I hadn't come here, I might just be a down-and-out little detective, and I might be killed by gangsters one day behind my back. Now that I have experienced so much, I have gained fame, wealth, and a colorful life in the abandoned city. At the end of the story, your life needs a happy ending, and what could be more satisfying than saving a world?"

After hearing Drizzt's words, Shia also fell silent.

She witnessed the process of Jost's construction of the magic network, and she also knew very well what Drizzt thought. If she were in this position, Shia felt that she might make the same choice.

Having walked in the Land of Silence until now, Shia understands the value of civilization. In this crazy and twisted world, being able to have order and hope is a miracle in itself.

She couldn't refute Drizzt's words, and Shia also knew that a Chosen One like Drizzt who had reached the [Ascension] difficulty task had very little sanity left.

Even if I have two or three missions, my sanity will be emptied.

At that time, Shia may choose to ignite herself, return to the Spirit Torch, and become part of the Kingdom of Darkness.

Therefore, she can understand Drizzt's thoughts.

Instead of struggling with the inevitable death, it is better to choose a more meaningful ending.

Stone could understand Drizzt's thinking, but he didn't agree with it.

He looked to Lu Jian for help.

Lu Tan looked at Drizzt, but before he could speak, Drizzt took the lead.

"The moment I connected to the magic network, I saw some ways to seal the old rulers. I kept that knowledge in my mind. I knew very well that if I wanted to do this, I had to stay in a foreign land. If you have your own mark, you must try to become a god."

"If I hadn't come to the Kingdom of Darkness and participated in this, maybe it would have taken me a long time to acquire this knowledge, or maybe I wouldn't have been able to do it at all."

He was a little sad.

It is precisely because Drizzt came here and participated in the construction of the Gray Tower that he was able to obtain the corresponding knowledge of sealing the old rulers, he was able to obtain the knowledge in the "Xuanjun Seven Chapters Secret Scripture", and he was able to meditate in Jiangcheng Mountain. It took him a thousand years to leave such words to Lu Tan.

As the Chosen Ones discussed at the beginning of the mission, due to the existence of Shia, the establishment of the Gray Tower is inevitable, and their mission is bound to be successful.

Due to the existence of Lu Tiao, the seal of Jiangcheng Mountain must be established. However, Drizzt, who did not understand how to seal the old rulers and the path to becoming a god, did this. The answer lies in the Kingdom of Night.

Endless knowledge gathered into his mind through the magic network, and Drizzt picked it up.

And perhaps the reason why Drizzt did this was because Lu Jian and the others told Drizzt about his future.

Everything is a cause and everything is an effect.

Destiny closed its loop at this moment and became history that cannot be changed.

"So, everyone, it's time to say goodbye."

Seeing that no one else expressed any reaction, Drizzt chuckled and patted their arms.

"Maybe we can meet in future missions. In the Quiet Land, nothing is impossible."

He straightened the buttons of his clothes, straightened the deerstalker hat on his head, raised his hand, and saluted the other three.

"Then it's time for me to go back."

"Those who have died, pay tribute to those who died."

His figure was dim and only his voice remained.
