The old man looked up from the report in surprise, and his brown eyes looked at Ava's delicate face: "It's Huangsheng, right?" Have you bound the ownership of the spirit object? ”

"Not really." Ava shook her head, "I checked the player's information. Players who come into contact with the artifact parts are indeed in the Coalition Government's registration file. However, the information above shows that he has not awakened. The guess is likely to be that he has concealed his awakening information, or that he has just awakened. This Huang Sheng is currently in the joint trial of sample 25 and 49. ”

"It shouldn't be enough to conceal it," the old man lowered his head and continued to check the report, while thinking, "It should be just awakened, and there should be no information about spiritual objects in the awakened memory, otherwise it is impossible to choose to enter the trial when Regeneration is just opened." Wait, you said the joint trial on the 25th and 49th!? ”

The old man looked up at Ava with a calm face in surprise again: "Didn't you say that you only obtained the spiritual parts of sample 49?" ”

Ava rolled her eyes secretly and continued to answer in a cold voice, "For the time being, I only obtained the 'Source of Ice' part, but this player still has the trigger item of the No. 25 sample spirit object in his hand. If you pass the Linkage Trial, it is very likely to obtain two trigger artifacts of the 25th and 49th samples. Although they are only parts and not complete spiritual objects, if they pass the trial, the player will have level 2 regeneration privileges. ”

"Okay. This little guy is really lucky. The old man had already found Ning Yuan's information in the report, "Oh? Or the boy of the Ning family? I remember that the children of the Ning family in this generation are all civilians, right? ”

"Ning Yuan, male, 24 years old. He is 175 tall, weighs 50 kilograms, has good facial features, and has an ordinary appearance. 'Silver-eyed Demon Lord' Ning Zhijun's second son. At the age of 6, he became a Huangsheng, but because he didn't wake up, it was easier to apply for an identity, and the identity on the government information has always been a civilian. At the age of 21, he graduated from the Second Command College of Linhang District, Zhuxia, with average grades in school. There is an older brother Ning Xiangyun who is 3 years older and a younger sister Ning Rou who is 3 years younger. All three of them are Huangsheng, Ning Xiangyun became Huangsheng at the age of 9, and Ning Rou was 7 years old. Of the three brothers and sisters, only the younger sister is awakened, and it is an ability awakening, and the awakening ability is 'pointing a deer as a horse'. "Ava obviously did her homework. The old man only said a word, and he recited Ning Yuan's details, including the situation of the two brothers and sisters.

"You girl, you've done your homework enough." The old man shook his head with a smile and continued to look down at the report while asking, "What is the specific content of the 25th and 49th joint trials?" ”

"The specifics are unknown." Ava's eyelids drooped under her wide-rimmed glasses, her blue eyes looked at the ground, and her voice was a little low: "I don't have enough permission." The system shows that it is level 3 of the danger level, and there is a risk of needing deep soul recuperation. ”

"Special Jia Three?!" The old man raised his head with a solemn expression, then thought about it, sighed lightly and lowered his head again, "Okay, then keep observing." It is tentatively set as a Grade A observation target, and if you pass the trial, your observation level will be increased to Grade 1. If it doesn't pass, you can help apply to temporarily leave the world of "Regeneration" for deep soul recuperation. The observation level was then downgraded to B. ”

"Oh." Ava nodded, and then asked with some puzzlement: "I understand the application for soul recuperation, but why is it just to lower the observation level instead of canceling it?" You know, although we have more than a dozen bases together responsible for the observation of the regeneration program, we have been in a state of understaffing. Is this a waste of resources? ”

"A three-brilliant student is inherently worth observing." The old man raised his eyes and said, "That's it." Report and I'll take another look. ”

"Okay. Then I'll go out first. Ava nodded a little puzzled and turned away.

"What's more, it's the cub of the Lao Ning family, or the son of the 'Silver-Eyed Demon King'." As if seeing the confusion on Ava's face, the old man muttered in a low voice.

What happened in the Void Realm, Ning Yuan naturally didn't know.

Ning Yuan woke up with a faint system prompt.

"Congratulations to the player for increasing their negative psychic resistance."

Ning Yuan, who opened his eyes in the pure black race, was a little confused, and the pitch-black environment in front of him made him subconsciously close his eyes again.

It took a while for me to realize where I was.

Ning Yuan, who opened his eyes again in the dark, was a little surprised to find that it seemed that the chaotic distractions and negative emotions that seemed to drive people crazy in his mind had dissipated a lot, and he didn't feel much at this moment.

Properties

Suspiciously, he exhaled the character panel in his mind, and found that the blessing time of the wisdom attribute had not decreased, but had increased a lot.

"What's going on?" Although he didn't have a real feeling, Ning Yuan still subconsciously raised his hand and scratched his head.

It was only when I saw the player's log that I realized what happened when I fell asleep.

I saw a full 30 messages running "Meditation" Week and 10 messages on the player's journal about the increase in negative psychic resistance.

"I'm running the 'Meditation' skill all the time while I'm asleep? Did I sleep for three days and two nights? ”

"Can the non-stop running of the 'meditation' skill completely eliminate negative emotions and thoughts?"

"So where I am now... Ning Yuan looked at the words "full and calm" on the mental state column and fell into deep thought: "Is my current state a superposition of the calm state after many times of 'meditation'?" ”

In order to verify, Ning Yuan supported the ground with his hands that had no sense of reality, stood up with the character panel as a reference, and then tried to take two steps forward.

But as soon as he took a step, Ning Yuan didn't grasp the balance and stumbled.

"It doesn't seem to be." Ning Yuan frowned in his consciousness and said to himself, "It seems that it is only because of the normal state after the reduction of negative thoughts, not the state of absolute rationality and calmness after 'meditation'. ”

"The confusion of the five senses still affects the balance of the body, and if you want to move forward, you have to find a way to enter that rational state that is not disturbed by emotions." As he thought about it, Ning Yuan found that some chaotic thoughts and deliberately ignoring the emotional changes caused by environmental factors rose and fell again.

"Is that all there is to it for now?" Ning Yuan sighed in his mind and ran the "Meditation" skill again.

。。。。。。

A month later.

"Ahh Yes! Ahh·····h

In the darkness, Ning Yuan's eyes were red, his body was rolling on the invisible ground, his limbs were constantly flapping indiscriminately, and his mouth was shouting wildly.

Although he couldn't hear his own voice, couldn't see his body, couldn't feel the touch and pain of slapping on the ground. But he did it unconsciously.

Ning Yuan was out of control. On one occasion, he fell asleep without having time to run the "Meditation" skill, and when he woke up, he lost control.

Without warning, without any struggle, it spiraled out of control.

Chaos, irritability, fear, misery, loneliness, fear, despair, all kinds of emotions filled his mind, and when Ning Yuan's consciousness had not had time to maintain the last bit of clarity, it completely overwhelmed his consciousness defense.

If Ning Yuan could open the character panel at this moment, he would definitely find that there was a line of dazzling red font flashing rapidly in the column of his mental state - "Mental state is extremely crazy"

In the frenzy, Ning Yuan unconsciously ran wildly in this seemingly infinite pure darkness, and the lack of balance made him stumble and fall from time to time, roll, and then stand up and run directionlessly again.

In the frenzy, Ning Yuan was not only running and shouting, but also unconsciously discarded the shirt and short sword on his body, and even somehow took out the items in the Kun bag and scattered them all over the place.

The blueprints obtained from the labyrinth treasure chest, the "Initial Solution of Learning (Complete Version)" and the "Nine Refining Qi Turning Heart Sutra (Fragment)" were found in the random treasure chest, the porcelain vase containing the Bigu Pill and the Reincarnation Pill, the jade box, and even the spiritual artifact part "The Source of Ice".

The accident occurred when Ning Yuan unconsciously threw out an "unknown lamp".

I saw that this lamp, which no longer emitted light after Ning Yuan took it off, rolled and flew out of Kunbao, and when it appeared in this pure dark environment, it did not fall into the darkness around it like other items, but floated silently after tumbling and landing.

Then a white light lit up in the lamp, illuminating the darkness.

At the moment when the white light lit up, the darkness around seemed to freeze for a moment, and then in an instant, it seemed to be stimulated, boiling and tumbling like a living thing.

Viewed from a third perspective, the surrounding darkness is centered on the floating lantern, and the surrounding darkness rushes like a rushing wave against the white light emitted by the "unknown lantern".

At the moment when the darkness froze, even in the frenzy, Ning Yuan seemed to feel an indescribable terror coming, and subconsciously stopped.

Then the scarlet eyes were attracted by the white light that lit up in the pure darkness, and unconsciously turned his head to look in the direction of the white light.

Then he saw the darkness of a living creature rushing into the white light.

The white light does not illuminate a large area, only about one meter around the center of the lamp. And as the darkness rushes, this range is slowly shrinking.

However, when the range of white light was reduced to half a meter, no matter how much the surrounding darkness surged, it could no longer make the white light take a step back, but the darkness continued to turn into smoke and be absorbed by the lamp.

And as the smoke-like black gas poured into the lamp, the white light, which had been dim, became brighter and brighter as if firewood had been added.

It was also at this time that Ning Yuan, who was originally in a frenzy, finally struggled to wake up when the frenzied emotions and thoughts in his mind fell into a brief blank due to the huge terror caused by the darkness and the visual impact of the white light.

The moment he came to his senses, Ning Yuan saw the light that he had not seen for a long time.

Ning Yuan looked at the lamp emitting dazzling white light in the darkness in a daze, and didn't care about the stinging pain and dimness in his eyes after suddenly seeing the light in the dark for a long time, and didn't care about the tears that suddenly slipped from his eyes under the stimulation of the light, he just looked at it in a daze.

At this moment, only the lamp that shone in the darkness remained in Ning Yuan's consciousness.

。。。。。。

"What is the content and purpose of this test?"

Ning Yuan, who was naked in the light of the lamp, thought silently.

Originally, Ning Yuan hadn't thought about this issue carefully.

Ning Yuan thought that the so-called test was to get out of this pure dark environment and find the exit of the secret passage. The disorders of the five senses and the chaotic thoughts and emotions that constantly stimulate the mind are the disturbances of this dark test. As long as you don't resist these distractions of maddening emotions and thoughts, then the test is a failure.

But after going crazy once and witnessing the mutation of the "unknown lamp", Ning Yuan found that he was wrong. Mere madness is not a condition for failure.

He found that if he couldn't decipher the true content and purpose of this dark space test, he would probably really be trapped here for a long time as he had guessed when he first saw a large number of Bigu Dan.

And being trapped in such an environment for a long time, Ning Yuan can foresee that there may only be two endings waiting for him. Committing suicide or using the Reincarnation Pill to reincarnate. The entire soul fell into an irreversible frenzy, and then was sent back to the void by the system for deep soul recuperation.

If it was the second ending, Ning Yuan could be sure that he would completely lose the opportunity to enter this world again.

Losing access to the Neno Continent to participate in the "Regeneration" plan of the combined government of the Ruins and the Stars also means losing the opportunity to witness the miraculous future as a Huang Sheng, and also losing the qualification to realize and witness the ideals shared by himself and many Zhuxia people who have not completely fallen like himself.

Whether he is willing or not.

So no matter what the reason, even if you are forced to commit suicide or take the means of reincarnation pill reincarnation in a corner of the Neno continent to start over. Ning Yuan must not allow himself to completely leave the Neno Continent in the second way.

Before he was completely cornered, Ning Yuan could only try everything and use all means to try to complete the current trial and all the tests that might arise in the future.

So, the first thing to do now is to unravel this dark trial that makes people on the verge of collapse all the time, and completely cut off the possible second ending.

And to unlock this dark trial, Ning Yuan must understand the content and purpose of this dark trial in a short period of time.

Fortunately, the mutation of the "Unknown Lamp" allowed Ning Yuan to be unaffected by the dark trial within the range of light. Whether it is sight, hearing, smell or touch, it is back to normal within the range of the light. The negative effects of darkness are also kept out of the light. So that he can devote himself to the contemplation of trials.

In other words, the half-meter radius illuminated by the light of the "unknown lamp" is equivalent to the "safe zone" in the trial.

"From the moment I entered the hidden entrance to Longya Mountain, this inheritance trial of the city's knot should have begun."

"From the mountain crack to the labyrinth, it can be regarded as the entrance qualification test of the inheritance, and if you can't avoid those natural traps and many forks in the road to find the location of the maze, you won't even have the qualification to enter the real inheritance test place."

"Then the labyrinth can be seen as the first step in the test of inheritance. If the strength is strong, the maze only tests the player's reflexes and hard power. If you can be reckless enough to construct a puppet, the other traps in the maze will be equivalent to minor troubles at best. But if there is no reckless strength, then the maze tests the player's observation, reflexes, decisiveness and ability to adapt to risks and avoid risks. Even if it is the labyrinth's final illusion, these are the tests. ”

"Fortunately, because of the overlapping memories, my performance in this first level of the trial should be okay."

"The second level of the legacy is this secret passage that hides the clues of the races that have disappeared in the continent of Neno. The previous test should also be the ability to observe, act and deduce. Among them, there is only one mortal danger, which is to solve the inexplicable cold in time. If my guess is correct, if the 'Deep Cold' state is not cleared in time, there is a good chance that the player will die outright. Just the 'Deep Cold' state caused by the first 'Unknown Orb' has directly reduced all attributes by fifty percent, and the result of the superposition of the nine beads can be imagined. ”

"But the greater the risk, the greater the benefit. The first time you remove the threat of the 'Deep Cold' state, you will be immune to the following 'Deep Cold' state, and the harvested 'Unknown Orb' will eventually become the 'Source of Ice', a spiritual component. ”

"The second gain is to get a hidden history that isn't in the background material, and to get the primary access to Regeneration."

"If I really want to say it, in fact, the benefits at this stage far outweigh the actual risks."

Ning Yuan tapped his forehead and muttered to himself as he sorted out his thoughts:

"However, there is a fundamental premise for actually reaping these benefits."

"Complete all the Legacy Trials and receive the Legacy in its entirety."

"The trial of this dark space can be seen as a follow-up to the second level of trial, or it can be seen as a trial of the third level alone."

"But what kind of test does this level of trial correspond to the player?"

Ning Yuan, who was muttering to himself, frowned, and his eyes unconsciously looked at the darkness outside the light.

"Willpower?"

"It seems so."

"But it's not just simple willpower. In such a pure dark environment, even the kitten people who are born with night vision may not be able to see. And"

Ning Yuan stood up and walked to the edge of the lamp's light, raising a hand and reaching out into the darkness at the edge of the light.

As the arm stretched forward, the part of the arm that had sunk into darkness disappeared into view as if it had become invisible. If it weren't for the fact that he had been in this kind of darkness as if the whole person had disappeared, Ning Yuan would definitely be startled.

But now he is calm.

Reach your other hand into the darkness as well, and clasp them together by feeling.

As Ning Yuan expected, there was not the slightest sense of touch.

Stepping one foot into the darkness likewise does not feel down-to-earth. But Ning Yuan observed from the part of his thighs that was still in the light, and Ning Yuan was sure that he was indeed stepping on the ground.
