Anna, who is the protagonist of the story "The Little Match Girl", is on the underdog, and this is where the biggest problem lies. So this world is definitely not the real continent of Oz, so staying away from Fireworks Town here will not complete the first part of the main quest.

There are also some suspicious points, such as that Red Lotus met children before entering the fireworks town. When the group and the residents trigger a search for Anna, there are apparently no children in the group, and when they return to Fireworks Town, it is empty.

Whether it is a disappeared child or an old mayor, they all belong to the existence that has not given birth to greed. There are still many suspicious points that provide clues like this, such as the words of the old mayor were heard by Honglian. Therefore, Lin Jiu suspected that this was a world of consciousness, not a real world.

It is an existence similar to a dream world, so you need to return to the real Oz continent to carry out the first ring of the main quest. Why did he put him in such an environment after coming to this world, instead of being sent directly to the continent of Oz.

He gained Anna's favorability here, as the protagonist of the story, the real Anna is definitely not what Lin Jiu has encountered. It's probably the kind of painting style that blows up a small town with a fireball.

Could it be that he simply gave benefits to Lin Jiu? Definitely not. Quests that increase Anna's opinion are triggered later, and when the quest is triggered, it is given a pattern similar to faction selection.

It can be guessed that the trigger condition for this quest is that he appears in both Fireworks Town and Forest Anna at the same time. It just so happened that Lin Jiu had the existence of the clone of the red lotus, so that this condition could be achieved.

One of the prerequisites for triggering a quest is that it can be judged as a unit. This kind of doppelganger, like the shadow clone of the Hokage World, will definitely not be recognized as a unit by Paradise. If the conditions for triggering the task can be met, except for Lin Jiu, the gray gentleman has the highest probability.

Therefore, this side quest triggered by Lin Jiu has no less trigger conditions than hidden quests. Then, if it is inferred that this task has not been triggered, the residents of Fireworks Town, after this illusory world is shattered, may have the identity of a remnant of Fireworks Town.

When the time comes, the task of leaving the fireworks town may become an escape from the fireworks town. If you don't join forces with the residents of Fireworks Town, and you don't trigger the quest, you can't get favorability, which is equivalent to being marked by a blackened Anna. There is a high probability that there will be a meeting killing.

Then it is obvious that this illusory world exists to make it more difficult for them. It's just that Lin Jiu's 31 lucky points played a role, allowing him to trigger the key task. It may play a huge role in the subsequent main quests.

Lin Jiu: What is the gold content of 31 lucky points!

What is the feeling of 40 points of favorability, 11~60 points of favorability is a friendship, more than 60 points is a close friend, how to say that 40 points of favorability can be regarded as a friend. Before he really entered the Oz Continent, he had such a "friend" and was one step ahead.

And Lin Jiu also has a guess, judging by the importance of the characters in the story in the world background description. It is very likely that the strength and threat of these story characters after blackening are related to the spread of the story.

Characters like Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, and Snow White, according to this logic, are likely to be the strength of the ceiling of the Oz continent. And Anna, the little girl who sells matches, is definitely among the best in terms of popularity.

It seems to be just a side quest, but if this is the case, Lin Jiu's harvest is actually no less than a hidden quest.

When the light came again, Lin Jiu's posture was with his head resting on his rolling body. A man and a bear climbed up, and at first glance, they saw a fireworks town not far away. It was very quiet and there was not a single sign of human activity.

In front is a familiar fireworks town, and in the back is a forest where you have stayed. There is no change in contrast to the environment they see in the world of consciousness. Lin Jiuhe Rolling approached the fireworks town.

"This is ......" walked into the fireworks town, and Lin Jiu's pupils shrank when he saw the scene in front of him. There are traces of various explosions left in the town, and these traces are clearly left by the bombs they used to demonize humans, so they are very familiar.

As you can see from the current architecture of the town, there have been no residents for a long time. What happened in that world of consciousness affected the events of the past?

Lin Jiu suddenly felt that the dream consciousness world was not so simple. In the real continent of Oz, Anna does not have this ability even if she is strong. Therefore, there are other factors that affect the appearance of these explosion marks.

And in the fireworks town, even more conspicuous than these explosion marks are the flames that burn in the town. It wasn't the explosions that really destroyed the town, but the fire in front of it. Half of the building remains burned with these flames. The flame flickered quietly, just there, as if it were fueled by air, and never went out.

Lin Jiu saw a familiar feeling in these flames, and there was no doubt that these flames came from the real Anna. The power of the flames that erupted after the real Anna lost control was not as simple as in the dream consciousness world, but easily destroyed the fireworks town.

"It didn't start the same way I expected, but it seemed okay." Lin Jiu looked at the scene in front of him and said. He deduced that three groups of contractors of different ranks were sent to different areas. There is a difference in the number of story characters in your area.

The Karlo Kingdom where the fifth-order contractor is located has the most fairy tale characters, and there may not be many on his side, but it shouldn't make him feel better. It's true, if it weren't for the super lucky trait that he triggered and just entered the continent of Oz, he would have been remembered by a "protagonist".

"Huh......?" Rolling looks at the fireworks town in ruins inside, and asks them what to do next.

"First of all, this fire can't be wasted. You can see what clues are left in Anna's house. "The Sun God Bird Mark naturally also absorbs flame energy, but ordinary flames don't look down on it. The flame in front of Lin Jiu came from the real Anna, and the flame rank was speechless, and it was enough to burn here for so long.

And not all the buildings in the town have been destroyed, at least Anna's own residence remains. Even if it's a complete fireworks town, with Red Lotus sneaking into the town, they know which one Anna's residence is. Not to mention the fact that there are very few intact buildings left in the town right now.

Lin Jiu let the Sun God Bird Imprint absorb these flames, and sighed in his heart, this fireworks town is really a good place. Anna left him with fire energy, and the inhabitants also provided Red Lotus with a lot of negative energy. If this is placed in the ancient times of the real world, it can be more or less a "land where the dragon rises", and the feng shui is very good.

"Huh~" It didn't take long for the head with "dark circles" to stick out of the window and howl at Lin Jiu.

"Oh? There are really clues. Lin Jiu, who was still charging the imprint of the sun god bird, was attracted by the rolling sound. The Red Lotus figure appears and enters Anna's house. Why didn't Red Lotus go over at the beginning, it's very simple, it's lazy.
