Chapter 143: Radiant? Six hours? I want to speed run~!

Radiant!

It resembles a fluttering moth in appearance, and is far less ornate than a butterfly in the traditional sense, but its style is far more powerful than that of an ordinary butterfly or any insect.

In his previous life, Yu Hongshi, as an e-sports player, naturally came into contact with some games that were very hard to manipulate the waste keyboard, among which souls or metroidvania games were the most favorite.

In so many games, "Hollow Knight" is definitely one of the best, and even in the hearts of some players, it is a masterpiece, and every time there is an up master to make a video evaluation, you have to shout a sentence yyds!

With beautiful graphics, complex and massive maps, a good feel, and challenging levels of difficulty, it's hard to imagine such a good game being made by a small team of three people in Australia.

Of course, there were countless gods in the field of indie games in the past, and the reason why so many players have never forgotten "Hollow Knight" is also its epic plot.

And in this epic, the final boss is the god of light, Radiant!

There are many gods in the world of Hollow Knight, among which Radiant and Void are rivals.

The radiant itself represents the light, the master of dreams, and out of his light was born the moths. The Void, on the other hand, exists in the abyss, worshipping darkness.

Light and darkness are inherently opposites, and they are born to be separated, but light itself represents order, while darkness is chaos, although the power of the void is very strong, but the ununited nature makes it destined to be suppressed by the light, and even gradually die and seal.

However, the ultimate light and order is not a good thing, and all the inhabitants of Hallownest believe in radiant light, and they have lost themselves as a result, leaving only instinct and savagery.

Thankfully, it's not just the radiant light that has descended on Hallownest......

At some point, the Pale King Worm arrives at Hallownest, a dragon who reinvents himself in the form of a Nest resident bug at the beginning of his arrival in Hallownest, and bestows Hallownest with thoughts and wisdom, and works with his wife, Lady White, to establish the Hallownest Kingdom. It has become the new faith of many insects in the Holy Nest!

When a person has tasted the preciousness of freedom, he will never be willing to sink in darkness again. This is the same for bugs.

The bugs with their own minds chose to betray the radiant, and even the moth tribe born from the radiant chose to betray and turn to Vorm.

The way the bugs betray is to forget, to forget the radiant, and a god who only appears in dreams, once forgotten by the believers, is undoubtedly dead.

After Radiant was forgotten, the power of the Hallownest Kingdom began to expand, and most of the inhabitants had submitted to the White King, except for a few races. At this point, the White King's reign has reached its peak, and there are no bugs left underground to threaten Vorm.

He built the White Palace in the Ancient Basin, and selected the five strongest knights of the kingdom, and their heroic legends spread throughout the kingdom, even stepping into the abyss to build a lighthouse, and suppressing the void in a corner!

However, just as everything was about to turn for the better, Worm underestimated the moth's determination to fight the fire, and instead of waiting for death, Radiant was trying to make the bugs remember him again, and the plague broke out.

Plague-infected bugs will shed orange fluid, and their minds will gradually be eroded, losing the ability to think, and their bodies will even swell, eventually returning to their once savage and crazy form, attacking every uninfected subject.

In order to stop the plague, Worm ordered the closure of the Royal City of Hallownest, the City of Tears, but what he didn't expect was that the plague ignored the distance and began to spread throughout the Hallownest.

What exactly is the plague? If you are able to enter the dreams of the infestation, you will find that those infected can either only think simply, or are filled with strong desires, and dreams are the satisfaction of desires, and the radiant light is the god who governs the dreams.

The answer is now obvious, the essence of the plague is a dream, and the radiant light is the initiator who will submit all living things to His absolute light, absolute order!

The five knights of the kingdom were helpless against the plague, and almost all the tribes were infected, and in order to fight the radiant, the White King Worm decided to take the risk of borrowing the power of the radiant nemesis, the Void.

If you want to seal Radiant through dreams, you must find a creature that has no mind, no desires, and no dreams to use as a container, and the Void Clan, who are absolutely chaotic, are the best candidates.

So the White King Worm went to the abyss, and it took him a long time to remove many defective and substandard containers, until a container that was perfect in every way came to the fore.

There is no mind to think, no will to submit, no voice to cry over suffering, this is the pure container.

He was taken to his White Palace by the White King Worm for careful cultivation, and finally fully grew to the strongest form of the Vessel, and it was there that he received his name, Hollow Knight!

However, everyone didn't expect that even the White King Worm had miscalculated, and the pure container was not pure.

The long-term companionship of the White King Worm and the Hollow Knight gave him a family affection that should not exist. And this precious family affection has made the plan that has taken countless hours and painstaking efforts come to naught.

In order to seal the Hollow Knight and seal the Radiant, the White King Vom enlists the help of three Dream Keepers, and the Warden Lourien is loyal to the king and agrees. The teacher Mo Ruomeng is a visionary, he agrees to become a guardian, but at the same time he also lets his apprentice Quirreo leave the lair to deal with possible changes in the future, and even breaks the seal again.

The third Guardian is Hera the Beast, the Queen of the Deep Hive, and the Beasts are one of the few races to disobey the White King, but she makes a deal with Worm, with whom she asks to have a child in exchange for noble blood.

In this way, the radiant was successfully sealed into the body of the Hollow Knight, and the Hollow Knight body was sealed in the Black Egg Temple, and the three guardians fell into a deep sleep at the same time to completely seal the Black Egg Temple. To commemorate the sacrifice of the Hollow Knight and the three Guardians, a statue was even erected in the square of the City of Tears.

It's a pity that in order to make all the bugs forget the radiant light, although the statues were erected, no living beings knew what they were commemorated for......

Sadly, the Hollow Knight, who has family ties and flaws, is not able to complete his mission, Radiant is freed from his shackles, and the plague spreads once again!

At this point, the White King Worm had nothing to do, and finally could only flee with the White Palace in embarrassment, and under the effect of the plague, the entire Holy Nest became a ruin.

And this is also the beginning of the game, where the player has to play as one of the countless unqualified Void Containers, a small knight who has been given up when he is chosen. Drawn back to Hallownest by the light after many travels, he will embark on an epic journey, either to succeed his predecessors as a new vessel, or to ...... God Butcher!

This game has five endings, the first is to replace the predecessor to become the new hollow knight, but after this journey, the little knight is undoubtedly born of feelings, which is a palliative ending.

The second ending is also to become the new Hollow Knight, just because the Guardian and the Sealer are trapped in the Black Egg Temple, which means that there is no possibility of sealing again in the future, and when the plague rages again, there may not even be rescue, which is the worst ending.

And the third ending is called 'No More Dreams', which is to enter the dream realm of the predecessors in the final battle stage, kill the radiant, and completely eliminate the radiant's covetousness for the Holy Nest!

This ending would have been the most perfect, if it weren't for the God Seekers......

The so-called God Seekers are a group of people outside the Holy Nest who have been abandoned by the gods, and no one knows why their gods abandoned them, but Yu Hongshi once had his own understanding.

The Seekers of God seek to harmonize with the gods and thus ascend to the level of life, but are their beliefs pure? No, it's more about Mu Qiang, the worship of the strong.

Besides, they just pay their impure beliefs and think about improving their life level by tuning, which is a bit suspicious of getting something for nothing. It's like a group of traitors who can only flatter and slap horses, but they want to steal the supreme authority of the country, who can bear this?

So when the God Seekers came to the Hallownest, the White King was no longer to be found, and the ancient god Unn and the White Lady looked down on them, and the Void did not respond, and all they could believe in was Radiant.

Their faith undoubtedly renews the life of Radiant, which means that if Radiant wants to, he will be able to invade Hallownest again without killing Radiant in the dreams of the God Seekers, and the battle will never end!

It is worth noting that the radiant in the dream of the god seekers is the strongest form, far more difficult to fight than the radiant in the dream of the hollow knight, and the remaining redstone that played here was really stuck for two days.

However, once he became familiar with the playing styles of various bosses, with Yu Hongshi's hand speed as an e-sports professional player, it didn't take him long to achieve full achievement, speedrun, steel soul and even four locks and five doors.

At that time, Yu Hongshi was also very willing to recommend this game to others, but unfortunately, the high threshold made it a small audience, and after reaching the full achievement, Yu Hongshi gradually forgot about this game. But I didn't want to, and now I actually hit it head-on!

From some of the words he had just learned from the psychic attack, Yu Hongshi was sure that the glowing moth was one of the Seekers, and he used the psychic attack to put everyone to sleep, and at the same time walked the radiant plague.

……

Yu Hongshi looked at the people who had fallen around him, and then looked at the palm-sized Otherworldly Gate, the whole person was not good.

After thinking about it, he could only reach out and pick up a suitcase, slam the otherworldly door underneath, and then turned around and ran into the cabin.

"Huh? Are you okay? ”

Night God Moon, Conan, and Yu Hongshi glanced at each other, and pointed to the weakened suits on their bodies that had been extinguished.

Yu Hongshi instantly understood what they meant, since he relied on the soul gem to get out of control for the first time, and then slashed the God Seeker to death with a single sword, so the spirit attack only had time to extinguish their enhanced suits, but it did not put them into a deep sleep.

Well, the reason is good, Conan was in the cockpit at the time and could use this reason, what are you pretending to be in the night god moon? You're not far from us, Brother Xiu is asleep, and you're staying up all night here?

Needless to say, it must be the protection of the notebook, but Yu Hongshi did not hesitate and immediately began to arrange the task.

"I'll record the instructions on my phone and have Conan take them out through the exit. After that, I'm going to try to enter the other world and save everyone's souls! ”

Hiss!

The two of them gasped in unison, and Conan stopped pretending to be a schoolboy, "You're crazy, do you know how dangerous the other world is?" As far as I know, humanity has not yet made a single successful journey to the otherworldly world in the fight against otherworldly creatures. ”

Yu Hongshi shook his head, his eyes were firm and scorching, and even made them feel a little dazzling.

"There are some things that must be done, and some sacrifices that cannot be escaped, except for me, do you think you can?"

Ye Shenyue frowned and didn't say a word, the difficulty was also a look of remorse, Yu Hongshi smiled and comforted, "Don't worry about me, your task is also very difficult!" ”

The two of them looked up and said, 'We can be generous too!' ’

"This trip to the Otherworld can only be done in the way of the soul out of the body, because the Otherworldly Gate is too small, and my body can't get through. When I enter the Atlas Gate, my body becomes asleep. The entire population of the plane is now infected by the plague, which causes people to go berserk and attack all who are not infected. ”

Yu Hongshi looked at Ye Shenyue, "When these infected people wake up, they will attack, and you will face the entire plane. It may even be a former teammate, I will leave all the guns and knives to you in the future, you must defend the cargo hold, don't be soft when necessary, even if it is your own teammate, kill if you deserve it! ”

Ye Shenyue's body trembled, and his back was cold, it was completely different to use a notebook to control death and do it himself, not to mention, these companions all over the ground, they are all warriors who resist the invasion of the other world!

Yu Hongshi didn't have time to counsel Ye Shenyue at this time, and looked at Conan again, "Your task is to bring the phone back to the fighter, if your enhanced suit is not extinguished, this is nothing, but now that your enhanced suit has failed, it will be a huge challenge for you to climb onto the airliner and jump on the fighter plane again!" ”

Conan's heart sank, but he didn't flinch, and nodded heavily, "Leave it to me." ”

Yu Hongshi was quite relieved to see this, and asked again: "How long can the plane hover like this?" ”

"There are still six hours to go, less than seven hours."

Yu Hongshi nodded, and the three of them first moved out the sleeping captain and co-pilot in the cockpit, so as not to affect the flight of the plane after they went crazy. Then tie up the soldiers of all countries and throw them in the deepest part of the cabin to prevent them from messing around, after all, their physical fitness is far beyond that of the Night God Moon, if they wake up and make trouble, the Night God Moon may not be able to hold it.

"Why don't you let the logistics troops come in and defend?"

"I'm not sure if the enemy will come and cause trouble again after I enter the Otherworld......"

Yu Hongshi began to record with his mobile phone, briefly talked about the characteristics of the plague, and then handed it to Conan, and then took Jiao Jiao's mobile phone to set a timer for six hours.

In these six hours, he wants to speed through the world of the Hollow Knight!
