"I'm still close to clearing the customs..."

Qiu Yuan put down the handle in his hand and moved his shoulder, then looked at himself in armor on the computer screen, and the girl standing quietly on the side, and decided to fill his stomach first.

The game that Qiu Yuan played just now is called "Elden Ring", which is another masterpiece of Miyazaki's old thief who fell to the altar.

As a veteran player, Qiu Yuan has cleared this game several times and won the platinum trophy on the PS5 platform early.

But the "Elden Ring" that Qiu Yuan is playing now is a little different from the original.

Also peculiar is the PS5 that Qiu Yuan is now controlling.

The peculiarity of this PS5 is that... ITS GAME STORE CAN EVEN SEARCH FOR GAMES ON THE NS PLATFORM AND XBOX PLATFORM.

This made Qiu Yuan wonder if he was playing a cracked version of PS5.

But it's not just the masterpieces of the three royal families, Qiu Yuan, can play them, and these game masterpieces are also a lot different from Qiu Yuan's impression.

The most intuitive feeling is that the world in the game seems to have become more vivid, and the difficulty is several times higher than that of the original.

Mainly in the enemy, the boss has more tricks, and it has become smarter, more like a 'living opponent'.

The NPCs have also become more vivid, to take the most intuitive example...

It's the NPC Melina, known as the Wooden Man, who has been following the player in "Elden Ring", and is lying in the groove.

Under normal circumstances, when the player talks to her, she is really too many sentences in three sentences, or Queen Malika's Proverb Repeater, from the beginning of the game to the completion of the level, she can't say a few lines related to herself and the player.

But in this "Elden Ring", Melina seems to have a soul of her own, and when Qiu Yuan calls her out to chat, she can choose a lot of weird options.

She can also answer Qiu Yuan with a very cold attitude.

However, no matter how difficult the game is, it is not a problem for super hardcore players like Qiu Yuan, who play any game and end up in the 'World Speed Running Record'.

On the contrary, the bosses have more moves and are more difficult to deal with, which is a pleasure for Qiu Yuan.

But games are always games, not food.

Qiu Yuan covered his hungry stomach, put down the handle, stood up, came to the kitchen, and picked up a piece of potato on the kitchen stove.

"Is this all I have to eat today?"

Qiu Yuanqiang endured the feeling of nausea and glanced out the window through the kitchen.

The view outside the window is a lush forest, except for a small courtyard for Qiuyuan to exercise, there is no trace of human beings.

Ever since Qiu Yuan came to this strange cabin in a coma... It's been almost a full year.

For the past year, Qiu Yuan has been trapped in a small cabin deep in the mountains.

If Qiu Yuan was just trapped in the mountains, it would be fine, but if Qiu Yuan was tired of living, he could come to the wilderness to survive and find a way to go down the mountain to find someone for help.

But what's weird... Qiu Yuan was not trapped in the mountains, but was artificially imprisoned in this deep mountain cabin.

There are three proofs of captivity.

One of them is that every morning Qiuyuan will receive a box of ingredients, although there are only two kinds of food in this ingredient, potatoes and rice, but at least there are enough of them... It can ensure the amount of food in a day in autumn.

The second is that this wooden house will always be supplied with electricity, tap water and gas, although Qiuyuan has not been able to find these electricity, tap water, and the source of gas, fortunately, at least the owner of the house does not charge Qiuyuan's water and electricity bills.

There is a 'suggestion box' in the third wooden house, and Qiu Yuan can put what he wants into the suggestion box...

Although only a small part of the needs will be met, such as a toothbrush, a pillow and other daily necessities.

But like what...'Set me free!' ''Don't give me potatoes every day!'' Let's have some meat! You can't always be a loving father, right? None of these requirements can be met.

So Qiu Yuan can be sure that he is imprisoned, not only imprisoned...

The pervert who imprisoned himself may still be spying on himself in some way, always keeping an eye on his movements.

"You've locked me up enough in a year, right?!"

After Qiu Yuan saw that he was eating potatoes again today, he couldn't help but shout into the house.

"I don't care what kind of reality show you guys are doing, or if you're just a psychopath, you like to enjoy this captivity PLAY! But it's against the law, you know?! ”

To be honest, Qiuyuan's time this year has actually passed... Pretty reasonable.

After all, it's accompanied by a PS5 console that can be played on all three platforms, plus a whole bunch of more vibrant game titles.

Not to mention a year's time, I can live alone for ten years with these games, but the most critical question is...

"And the offense is the offense! Can you give me some meat? ”

Qiu Yuan held up the potato in his hand and shouted at the window.

"A meal of potatoes, a meal of rice! This man is going to eat something wrong, you know? I'm not an extreme vegetarian! If you don't give me the whole meat... I'm just... I'm just... I can't help it, so let's eat first..."

"Try making butter potatoes today."

Although Qiu Yuan has infinite resentment in his heart, his too socially phobic personality still makes Qiu Yuan have to compromise.

But Qiu Yuan still scolded the group of perverts who imprisoned him ten thousand times in his heart...

I don't know how psychopathic those guys are... Why would such a heinous act be committed? It feels much more psychopathic than a golf killer!

When Qiu Yuan was peeling potatoes, he secretly swore in his heart...

When he has a chance to bump into those guys who imprisoned him, Qiu Yuan will definitely blow up their brains with the potatoes in his hand!

………………

At the same time, in the world of Elden Ring...

"Fader-sama? My king? ”

Melina, the 'fire girl' who has been following Qiuyuan's game character for a long time, quietly squatted beside Qiuyuan's incarnation in the game, and whispered Qiuyuan's title in this world.

But Qiu Yuan didn't respond, Melina had never heard Qiu Yuan's voice as a player, but Qiu Yuan would always ask her a lot of strange questions with option text.

For example, 'What is your relationship with Higuchi Tsuka?' ''Have you ever thought that you would regret being so indifferent to me for the rest of your life?'' ''I didn't think I'll let you experience it!'' (Crazy Fire)'

Although these questions have always bothered Melina, for the sake of Qiuyuan's face of being the king of Elden four times in a row, Melina will still answer patiently.

But now, no matter how Melina asked Qiu Yuan out loud, Qiu Yuan didn't respond.

Obviously, she and Qiu Yuan were already on the edge of the giant cauldron at this time, and Melina wanted to know if Qiu Yuan planned to use her as firewood to burn the World Tree this week, or if Qiu Yuan planned to burn himself.

It's a pity that half an hour has passed, and Qiu Yuan is still sitting motionless.

Melina knew that the great warrior in heavy armor in front of her was just Qiu Yuan's body in this world, and his soul and consciousness were temporarily gone.

In the past, all Melina could do was wait for Qiuyuan to return, but today there was a little accident.

Something that doesn't belong to the Elden Ring world appears in front of the Fireproof Girl.

A pale blue portal, this portal seemed to call Melina.

Melina knew she shouldn't leave her post when the player was gone, but she felt the aura of the person she served, Qiu Yuan, in the portal.

"My king?"

Melina shouted tentatively again, her brow furrowed slightly, but she got up and walked into the pale blue portal.

As her leather boots hit the cold ground, Melina found herself in a strange forest.

The forest was shrouded in darkness at all sides, except for the warm glow of an old wooden house not far away.

Merina was drawn to the warm light and walked slowly to the old cabin.

When she pushed the cabin open, the light inside instantly brightened.

Melina could clearly feel that it was a wooden house protected by a magical inscription.

Melina could faintly hear the noise behind the cabin.

"You need to pay before you can get in."

At the entrance, a brunette beauty sits behind the bar with a black cat in her arms.

Melina smelled purple currant and clove on her.

Money?

Melina doesn't have the concept of money, but when she walks to the black-haired woman's bar, she finds that the 'money' paid by visitors to the cabin is also strange.

There are the most common gold coins, the US dollar, the Japanese yen, but more like emeralds, a red magic stone with a distorted face, bottle caps, and a red mushroom that is pulsing.

Melina felt the smell of the currency, and she understood what the 'money' she needed to pay was.

"This... Is it enough? ”

A small poke of white souls appeared in Melina's hand, which was the currency 'soul' in Elden's Ring

"You also trade with the power of your soul? It seems that he really likes this kind of world, but at least it's more reliable than the bottle cap, so let's go inside. The brunette showed Melina the way.

Melina walked down the hallway to the end and pushed open a wooden door, only to realize that it appeared to be a tavern.

But who owns this tavern? What are these people gathered here for?

Melina was wondering about this when an old voice suddenly sounded in her ears.

"When my wife and daughter died at my hands due to the conspiracy of Ares, it was he who guided my anger, witnessed my anger burn the whole of Mount Olympus, and with his help I killed the Athenian gods who caused all this tragedy, after which I was also glad to have come to Northern Europe with him and met my wife Fi... After traveling through the Nine Realms with my child Atreus, after so many adventures... He was the one who taught me how to be an admired God. ”

The owner of the old voice was a man who looked like he had gone through the vicissitudes of life, and he had a scarlet tattoo that stretched from his head to his feet, like an honor and a shackle and brand.

The man was talking to a man with wolf eyes and white hair, who could also be described by the word vicissitudes, and there were several other men sitting around the table with the word 'tough guy' written on their faces.

"Our experiences are very similar, and I was guided all the way from Novigri to Towcente, and he fought off the Wild Hunt with me, thwarted the Mirror Master's plots, and... Giving a vampire peace and in any case, it was thanks to him that I was able to retire with my daughter in the manor of Touscent. ”

The white-haired man also sighed in a deep voice.

So who is he?

Melina vaguely guessed the answer in her heart, but she couldn't fully confirm it.

"It's a pity that I'm not as lucky as you, none of my comrades survived that war, Xiaoqiang, ghost... Died at the betrayal of that bastard guy in Shelfield, and Soap died at the hands of that Makarov guy, but he guided me to revenge... I still remember the dagger stabbed in the chest of that bastard in Sheffield, and Makarov strangled to death, and he gave me a chance at revenge. An old man in military uniform smoking a cigar said.

Melina listened quietly to the narrative at that table, and heard more singing and crying stories.

"When Ellie was in the fireflies, he was the one who shouted and told me... Ellie can't be handed over to them. ”

"I also killed Maika with him to avenge Arthur's blood vengeance."

"When the Templars killed my family..."

"When the whole group of thieves is in danger......"

"He has been guiding us in the most difficult moments, fighting side by side with us to the end, saving the world we live in countless times."

Melina could already guess who they were talking about... Melina whispered the name.

The true name of the Faded One, the great Elden King...

"Autumn is far away."

When Melina pronounced the name, the enthusiasm of the people in the tavern seemed to be ignited, and they raised their glasses to the people they admired, perhaps a comrade who fought alongside them, or a leader who showed them the direction of life, or a lover with deep affection.

He may be called by different names in the tavern, the witcher, the blue star, the leader of the Monster Thieves, Lord Ash, and the old father, but he has a common name for everyone in the tavern...

That's...

Toast to the greatest player Qiu Yuan.
