Chapter 122: Qi Lin's Journey to the Underworld
Just like Qi Lin said, the underworld is very big, and the reason why he was able to quickly find the souls of Wei Qingfeng, Huang Zhenfeng and others, and appear in the Spirit Palace in time, was because he met a native of the underworld.
That is, the current Grim Reaper.
The eighth guest said shyly: "I'm just a person from the underworld, not a god of death, just call me a bone deer." ”
He was dressed in a black robe, only his arms and head were exposed, and he was very skinny...... Because he really only has the bones of the white forest, without a trace of flesh and blood.
He didn't make up an avatar for himself, this appearance is his real appearance.
And when it comes to Qi Lin's encounter with him, it has to start last night......
["Yay! ”
"Victory!"
"Whew, it's finally over!"
The player legion finally exhausted Xuanfeng and the three giant wolves to death by biting the elephant to death, and the players who participated in the battle will be rewarded with talents in the Penglai world.
It's virtual.
And Qi Lin rescued Huo Luo and others, and also obtained the dark gold furnace.
It's real.
Qi Lin put away the player legion, and returned to the mechanical building in Huanghua City with Huo Luo and the others and the Dark Gold Furnace.
Open the Darkgold Furnace and remove the Nether Wolf body from it.
Dark, short fur, exposed vertebrae, hollow eyes.
It is worthy of the wolf named "Nether", and its appearance alone is full of gloomy and deadly atmosphere!
Qi Lin extracted the super gene of the Nether Wolf and used his modeling and printing ability to turn himself into a Nether Wolf, thus mastering the super power of the Nether Gate.
Use your abilities to open a nether door, then release some drones to make sure it's safe before entering the underworld.
The underworld is big and still pink.
This is not a metaphor, but an adjective.
The underworld is not a small world, but as vast as the real world, except that the sky of the underworld is pink.
"Wraithwolves?"
Just as Qi Lin was enjoying the scenery of the underworld, a surprise telepathy came.
"It's really a ghostly wolf!"
That was Qi Lin's first meeting with the bone deer.
Qi Lin was wary at first.
But he soon discovers that despite his terrifying appearance, the bone deer is actually very simple, and just wants a friend who can accompany him, whether that friend is a ghost wolf or something.
Anyway, you can move, you can chat.
Qi Lin then asked, "Why don't you go and talk to those souls?" This is the underworld, and there must be a lot of dead people coming here. ”
The bone deer nodded, indicating that it did have a soul, but said, "They are afraid of me." ”
Qi Lin glanced at the bone deer, although the appearance is very terrifying, but there will always be a bold soul, which shows that the appearance is not the main reason why the soul does not dare to approach him.
So he asked, "Why are they afraid of you?" ”
Gulu said: "Maybe it's because of my job. ”
"What do you do?"
"Eat souls."
“……”
Qi Lin was silent for a moment.
I thought it was some profound reason, it turned out that the relationship between predator and prey was so simple, no wonder the soul did not dare to approach him, just like a rabbit did not dare to approach a tiger.
This guy is the Grim Reaper!
Wait a minute......
Qi Lin asked: "You say 'work', who arranged the job for you?" ”
The bone deer shook his head, indicating that since his birth, his job had been to gnaw at souls, grinding them into unconscious pieces, and the rest was none of his business.
Qi Lin asked again: "Will gnawing on the soul fill your stomach?" ”
The bone deer responded: "Fill your stomach? What does that mean? ”
It turns out that the bone deer does not need food to sustain life, and the reason why he eats his soul, not for food, not for energy, is only because it is his natural job.
This is his destiny!
It's like a super-intelligence made by Qilin.
Although superintelligences such as Hatsu, Xiaoxue, and Bubble Princess have the ability to think like humans, they do not possess desires, and all their actions are extended based on the orders of their masters.
"Born to eat souls, it doesn't look like it evolved naturally, it's more like it was artificially adjusted!" Qi Lin looked at the pink sky and thought to himself that the underworld is not simple.
Could this underworld be an oversized Penglai world?
The purpose of Penglai World is to collect the minds of players in order to evolve the Super Crystal; The underworld collects and crushes the souls of the dead, all for ......
"The First Evolution"
For what?
Qi Lin didn't know.
"Could this underworld also be part of a great crisis?"
Just when Qi Lin was divergent in his thinking, Xu Chan summoned him.
Only then did he learn that the situation in the Spirit Palace was not good, and the East China Sea Alliance broke into the Spirit Palace in the name of revenge, putting Xu Chan on the cusp.
Qi Lin saw that the so-called revenge was just an excuse, a fuse.
Even if there is no Xu Chan, the Donghai League will find other excuses.
However, if the East China Sea Alliance does not have this excuse, the morale will be lost.
"Bone Deer, where are the souls that have come in recently? You can't have gnawed them off, have you? ”
In order to crack the excuse of the East China Sea Alliance, Qi Lin wanted to find some witnesses.
Is there anything more suitable to be a witness than myself?
"No, not so fast, I like to accumulate more before gnawing." Bone Deer asked, "What do you want to do?" ”
Qi Lin smiled: "I want to find a few people!" ”
Gulu thought for a moment and said, "...... Come on my back, and I'll take you to them. ”
Qi Lin jumped lightly and jumped onto the back of the bone deer.
The bone deer took Qi Lin to the No. 1 Soul Gathering Place, the No. 2 Soul Gathering Place, and the No. 3 Soul Gathering Place in one step and 100 meters in a moving way......
In the end, they found the souls of Wei Qingfeng, Huang Zhenfeng and others in the No. 8 Soul Gathering Place.
The souls trembled with fear when they saw the appearance of the bone deer, like a mouse seeing a cat.
Qi Lin pointed at Wei Qingfeng and the others and asked, "I want to borrow the souls of these people, is it okay?" ”
The bone deer shook his head and said, "Necromancy is not allowed to leave the underworld. ”
"Why?"
"It's the rule."
Rules?
Qi Lin was a little surprised.
Just because he has seen a superpowered person (Kato) who can get out of his body in the real world, he proves that the real world does not exclude souls, in other words, the natural laws of the real world are compatible with souls.
Since there is no problem with the laws of nature, the "dead spirits must not leave the underworld" is a man-made rule, similar to the law.
In this way, it is really possible that the underworld is not a natural world, but is artificially created.
Since it is man-made, it must have some purpose.
Otherwise, who would have built such a big project? Idle?
If you don't know it, it will really turn into a huge crisis!
Qi Lin rolled his eyes, counted in his heart, and said, "You can ...... without leaving the underworld."
As long as you borrow the principle of the player legion, project the figures of Wei Qingfeng, Huang Zhenfeng and others to the Spirit Palace, and let them testify, you can break the excuse of the East China Sea Alliance.
Bone Deer learned that he would not bring the necromancer out of the underworld, so he helped Qi Lin grab the souls of Wei Qingfeng and the others and return to the place where he and Qi Lin met for the first time.
Qi Lin walked towards the gate of the underworld in front of him.
Seeing this, the bone deer asked reluctantly, "Will you still come?" ”
Qi Lin looked back and smiled: "Of course, we will have a chance to meet in the future, but if you want to make more friends, I can introduce you to some people." ”】
