Chapter 74: Restart

As the wooden door opened, a candlelight reappeared in front of Jin Ning's eyes.

By the light, Jin Ning looked into the room.

The facilities in the house are very basic and even a little old. And standing in the doorway was an old man in a linen robe. He had a huge cross on his chest, which looked heavy. His right hand held the candlestick, the flame flickering, and in the wind it looked like it would go out at any moment. And his left hand covered his mouth and coughed incessantly.

"How...... Ahem...... Is it, young man...... Ahem......"

His hair and beard were gray, and his eyes were cloudy. He looked weak, like a candle in his hand, ready to go out at any moment.

Jin Ning looked at the old man and felt a little uncomfortable for a while. Maybe it's because I've been dealing with zombies and monsters for so long. The scene in front of me was really relaxing. Even though the surroundings were eerie and he didn't know where he was, the scenery around them was at least truly "normal".

Suddenly, nostalgia was hooked. But Jin Ning is no longer the same Jin Ning, this game is his world, and now he needs to do something by himself.

Jin Ning asked the old man, "Hello, old man!" I'm ......."

The old man coughed, put down his left hand, and waved, signaling Jin Ning to shut up. Then he walked towards Jin Ning.

He pointed the candle flame at Jin Ning's power armor, lowered his body, pressed against the armor to observe for a moment, and then closed his eyes again. After a while, he opened his eyes again.

"I know who you are, Traveler."

The old man laughed and said softly.

"You have where you want to go, but you got lost and came to me, right?"

"Yes! Elderly! Can you tell me how to get out of here? ”

"You want to go back, I know. But now you have to complete some tasks first. When you're done with that, you'll go back. ”

"Old man! Can you tell me what the task is?! ”

When Jin Ning heard the old man's explanation, he immediately became excited, it was obvious that this old man knew something.

"You'll know. Want to take a break here? ”

"No need, thank you, old man! Can you take me where I'm supposed to be? ”

"Yes. But, I guess you need some help. ”

The old man laughed and patted Jin Ning on the shoulder.

Jin Ning was suddenly overjoyed: it seems that he has been inherited again.

"I sense that some of your companions are sealed."

As he spoke, a green ball of light condensed from the palm of the old man's hand, which was attached to Jin Ning's shoulder.

The old man's actions startled Jin Ning, and Jin Ning instantly activated the battle form, wanting to push the old man away.

This is a normal reaction of a last-time survivor.

"Don't get excited, Housheng. I'll help you! ”

Jin Ning was just about to take action, when he suddenly found that his body became as if he was frozen. His consciousness was still there, but the connection between his body and himself seemed to have been severed.

Jin Ning was suddenly shocked, and suddenly there was nothing she could do but look at the old man in shock. But the old man didn't have any extra movements at all, and Jin Ning didn't even feel that energy had entered his body.

"Okay, Housheng, I can only help you get here."

After a few minutes, Jin Ning suddenly felt that the previous feeling of shielding had been eliminated. But instead of being broken by this force from the outside, as if it was unraveling itself from the inside, Jin Ning didn't feel any energy entering his body at all.

"Ding! The post-apocalyptic game system (NPC version) is being reconnected. ”

"The StarCraft summoning system is reconnecting."

Immediately afterwards, two prompt tones rang in Jin Ning's mind again, and Jin Ning was immediately overjoyed.

The familiar voice...... Love ...... so much."

This familiar voice made Jin Ning suddenly relax. Although I used to listen to it every day, I was a little tired of listening to it, but these few hours without them were too difficult.

Although the prompt of the connection sounded, the sound of the successful connection was not remembered for a long time. Jin Ning's mood suddenly dimmed from joy.

"Housheng, don't worry, this place doesn't seem to be able to summon them. But their restrictions have been lifted, I'll send you back! ”

"Okay, thank you, old man! Thank you so much! When Jin Ning heard the old man's explanation, she suddenly felt joy again: it seemed that the problem had been resolved.

The old man put down the candlestick, held up the cross with one hand, and placed the other hand on Jin Ning's shoulder again, and the green light appeared again.

"Old man! Do I still have a chance to come to you? ”

Jin Ning felt that the space around him was slowly being distorted, just like when he summoned the Star Legion.

Just when she was about to reach that critical point, Jin Ning suddenly remembered that she should ask the old man for an address, and then made a special trip to thank her, so she immediately said.

"There will be a chance. You can call me all-sighted......"

The corners of the old man's mouth slowly rose upwards and said slowly, but before he finished speaking, this green light suddenly enveloped Jin Ning, and then Jin Ning disappeared into this world.

"You can call me the All-Seeing Eye. I hope the next time we meet, you can save me......"

Seeing Jin Ning disappear into this world, the old man lowered his body, lifted the candlestick, walked into the house, and then closed the wooden door while muttering.

……

At the moment when the green light enveloped Jin Ning, Jin Ning felt a strange feeling of suffocation, as if he had been pushed down from a high place, and he was out of breath for a while. And when I opened my eyes again, the scene of the world around me changed again.

It's a red world.

The sky was blood-colored, and the ground was blood-colored, burning with fire. And in the surrounding sky, there are strange walls of light, which are emitting an uncomfortable red light.

"What is this place...... Did that person lie to me......"

Jin Ning looked around, and was shocked again: it seemed that his predicament had not been lifted.

Before he could react, a powerful coercion suddenly appeared in the sky, and he was out of breath for a while.

"Ding! The system has been rebooted! ”

"System reboot complete!"

"Commander, I'm sorry! That force was too strong for me to break through! But it was lifted on its own! ”

At this moment, three prompt tones suddenly appeared in Jin Ning's mind. And the last one was Freya's familiar voice.

At this moment, Jin Ning was about to cry.

If Freya had a physical body, Jin Ning would have wanted to pounce on her and hug her directly: this guy is finally back.

After the system is restarted, it means that Jin Ning's power has returned, so this coercion is also not worth mentioning.
