Chapter 86: Everything's Everything

63 pointed to the stone pillars of the sky around the perimeter of the square and said, "Look...... These ten pillars of the Heavenly Stone, they are called the 'Ten Pillars of the Gods', which are the 'pillars of order' of the 'whole world', and the balance of the 'whole world' is maintained by the 'Ten Pillars of the Gods'. ”

Gu Cheng looked confused.

Take a look.

What is a profession, this is called a profession!

Throw a bunch of words you know first, but stun you with words that you never know when you put them together, and then slowly start to explain......

Gu Cheng suddenly had the illusion that "10 days of life is worth spending".

Except for one of the ten stone pillars that seemed to have been cut off by the waist, only half the height of the other stone pillars and the body of the pillar was broken, the rest were intact.

Even if 63 didn't say it, Gu Cheng guessed that the next focus was on the destroyed stone pillar of Tongtian, that is, the "Ten Divine Pillars".

Suddenly there is a feeling that the world is about to be saved?

"The equilibrium has been maintained since the Big Bang until millennium ago, when an unknown life form called 'Honkai' appeared. Honkai', they exist to upset the balance of the 'whole world'. Once the balance of the 'whole world' is disrupted, the entire universe will collapse. So since the appearance of Honkai, the Ten Divine Pillars have been fighting against it. The most recent major battle took place 76 years ago, in which the Ten Pillars lost their ninth pillar, the Tech Pillar, but Honkai was also pushed back to the Dark Lands, which symbolized the end of the universe. There are no galaxies, no planets, just nothingness. ”

"But 'Honkai' has not given up on disrupting the balance of the 'whole world', and has been preparing for a counterattack in the 'dark land'. The Ten Divine Pillars sensed the imminent 'Honkai', and in order to select the new Ninth Pillar 'Technology Pillar', they deliberately launched the 'Infinite World Divine Chosen Project', that is, to select people with 'talent' to enter the Infinite World, and compete for the qualification called the Ninth Pillar with lifespan as a bet. ”

"In layman's terms, it means becoming a 'god'."

Speaking of this, 63 smiled: "Although most of the Chosen are forced into the infinite world, who is not interested when they hear that they can become immortal and destroy the world?" What's more, in the infinite world, as long as you have strength, you can get everything you want, power, wealth, women (men), ...... This is where everything on earth, everything you desire on earth that you can't get, here you can get through strength. So, apart from not being able to return to Earth, there's nothing wrong with being in the infinite world. ”

63 is still talking, but Gu Cheng has already turned a monstrous wave in his heart.

Can't go back to the real world?

But I can?

Or will I not be able to go back after entering the public space this time?

"Back to the real world." Gu Cheng thought about it in his heart, and the illusory blue font of the system appeared in front of him.

Does the host want to return to the real world? Yes/No? 】

Can I go back?

Am I the only one who can do it?

63 didn't notice Gu Cheng's abnormality, and continued to explain the infinite world.

"The infinite world, as the name suggests, has the world of 'infinity' here. It could be a world of novels, movies, TV series, anime, games, etc., that you are familiar with, or it could be a world that you have never heard of. Not only that, but even in the same world, there are countless different 'parallel worlds'. To give you an example, have you seen a Marvel movie? ”

Gu Cheng nodded.

63 continued: "In the interpretation of the Marvel Universe, the world exists in the form of a multiverse, and there are 666 on Earth, and there are 19999, and maybe even 233333. The 'plot' of the earth in different universes is also different. Maybe the Iron Man in 19999 died, but the Iron Man in 666 is still alive. ”

"These infinite worlds are all virtual worlds created by the Ten Divine Pillars, and the system is to gather the power of the Ten Divine Pillars and manage the power of the infinite world. It is said that this is the setting of the Ten Divine Pillars with reference to the game on Earth, which is convenient for us to understand. So what systems, panels, equipment attributes, etc., you will find, all have a 'familiar' flavor. ”

"Every 10 years, the 'Chosen Ninth Pillar' Challenge is held in the public space, and the winner becomes the Chosen Ninth Pillar. Seven editions have been held so far, and four years later it will be the eighth. When enough 10 'Ninth Pillar Chosen Candidates' are selected, the 'Final Battle' will be held in the presence of the Ten Divine Pillars, and the final winner will become the new 'Ninth Pillar'. ”

"After becoming a god, whether you return to the real world or continue to stay in the infinite world, you only need to do your part when the 'Honkai' attacks. In addition, the Ten Divine Pillars will also gather the power of the Ten Gods to fulfill a wish for you, whether it is to resurrect deceased relatives and friends, or to obtain powerful power, as long as you want, the Ten Divine Pillars will do their best to complete it for you. Many of the Chosen also struggle to fulfill their wishes. ”

"This is the infinite world. In layman's terms, it is a virtual world that is selected as the 'ninth pillar' created by the Ten Pillars of the Ten Divine Pillars to maintain the balance of the 'whole world' and use the game on Earth as a template. The Chosen One is the player. Life, that is, currency. Here, everything you want can be obtained through lifespan, such as information, equipment, items, etc. ”

Gu Cheng tried to calm the horror in his heart, and asked calmly, "Is there really no way to return to the real world?" In addition to becoming the 'ninth pillar', even if it is to pay for life? Or is it through some means in an infinite world? ”

63 replied, "This is the most common question asked by newcomers, and I know your worries and fears, but unfortunately there are no examples of returning to the real world so far. However, this is not to say that there is no way to return to the real world except to be the 'ninth pillar'. It is said that in addition to our public space, there is also a space ......"

As he spoke, 63 pointed to the pitch-black space in the sky: "It's called 'Inner World', and only the top 10 teams from previous challenges can enter. In the center of the 'Inner World' square, the last soul pillar of the 'Ninth Pillar' stands there, and after consuming 300,000 days of life, you can make a wish to the soul pillar of the 'Ninth Pillar' to return to the real world, but once the wish is successful, the system will deprive you of everything you have obtained in the infinite space, wash away your memory of the infinite world, and send you back to the real world. ”

"Let's not talk about whether anyone is willing to turn back into an ordinary person with a lifespan of 300,000 days, this number alone is not something that ordinary people can make up. So, so far, there have been no examples of returning to the real world. ”

Gu Cheng raised the second question in his heart: "Can death be resurrected in the infinite world?" For example, consuming a lot of lifespan in exchange for a chance to resurrect? Or maybe you buy some resurrection items for your lifespan? ”

"Resurrection. This is also one of the most frequently asked questions by newcomers. The good news is that there is a way to resurrect, and there are many items in the infinite world that can resurrect the Chosen One, such as the 'Resurrection Cross', 'Resurrection Crystal', and so on. The bad news is that such items are rare, and the most recent 'Resurrection Cross' sold for 80,000 lives. This is not something that ordinary Chosen People can bear, no, to be precise, even senior Chosen Ones can hardly bear it. ”

Aside from being able to return to the real world?

I can resurrect by consuming lifespans, is this a special case?

Does it have something to do with the fact that I have a "home world"?

Gu Cheng didn't intend to ask any questions about his abilities before 63 talked about the home world, just as he didn't say anything about being able to return to the real world.

The husband is not guilty of his crimes, and Gu Cheng understands this reason.

"There's no doubt about that, right? Then I'll continue to talk about the infinite world......"63 looked at his watch, it was still early, and continued to explain to Gu Cheng: "Although the infinite world looks like 'heaven' on the surface, it is actually not. Here, you have to follow the rules of the infinite world, and the first rule is 'competition'. ”

"Every 30 days, the Chosen One must enter the Infinite World, and if they don't want to enter, they can purchase an 'immunity' for 3,000 days. From day 31 onwards, spend double life surviving in public spaces. On the 61st day, another 3,000 days of life must be spent to buy an 'immunity', and the life span will be tripled, and so on. ”

"By the way, newcomer, I have to give you a word of advice here, don't tie the difficulty of the infinite world to the trial level just because you have passed the simple trial level. Even the simplest infinite world is several times more difficult to get out of than the trial level. Moreover, the most terrifying thing in the infinite world is often not the danger from the infinite world, but the ...... From the competition between the Chosen One. Everyone is from the earth, and people's hearts are unpredictable, so I don't need to popularize this to you, right? ”

How easy is the trial level?

Brother, are you afraid that you are not teasing me?

I died 40 times to clear Resident Evil 1, and if this is placed on an ordinary person who can't be resurrected, the difficulty is not normal at all, and it's not easy, right?

"After entering the infinite world, the system will issue you a main quest, as long as you complete the objective of the main quest, you can clear the infinite world. Clear an infinite world once and reward 1000 days of life. In addition to the main quests, there are also many side quests in the infinite world, and completing these side quests can obtain rewards such as random treasure chests or some kind of equipment items, which can be taken out of the infinite world and can be traded in the public space. ”

"For exampleβ€”" 63 pulls out a bottle of red liquid, which is reminiscent of the in-game blood vial: "A vial of health restorer, which restores 50 health after use, has a cooldown of 30 minutes, and has a maximum of 3 uses." Black iron grade consumables are generally sold for between 30-50 days depending on the recovery value. If necessary, you can buy from me, the quantity is preferred. In addition to the blood vial, I also have a lot of items that newcomers need, and you can learn about them if you need them. ”

Gu Cheng was speechless: "...... Are you selling this in passing? ”

"Occupational disease, forgive me."
