There is nothing more fascinating than the vast darkness of the boundless sea of stars, and there is nothing like the secrets hidden in the boundless galaxy. Humanity lives on an island called Ignorance in the dark ocean, a vast ocean that contains endless secrets, but we should not sail too far and explore too deeply.

When one day we can really piece together all the knowledge of each other, the real world before us, and the human condition in it, will lead us to either go crazy or flee from the terrible light to the peaceful, dark New Age.

As long as you accept your sins and cross the black abyss, what awaits you will be eternal magic and glory.

————— special collaboration mission [Unspeakable Challenge] has been launched, and all players are welcome to participate.

I'm going to your sister's !!

Looking at the advertising slogan on the column of the linkage activity, Duanmu Huai's hair stood upright, and he had to take a tablet in his hand and throw it out directly!

Of course, this crossover quest has been done in the game, and to be honest, the rewards for this quest are very good, and the best reward is the reality anchor.

For players, this is simply an artifact to restrain the evil gods!

After all, when the general evil god appears, with the erosion of reality by subspace, the whole world will begin to distort and change, and the reality anchor can prevent the erosion and change of reality by subspace, and stabilize it again in the state of reality, without running to subspace.

To be honest, if there was such a thing on the novice planet at the beginning, Duanmu Huai only needed to throw one to the side of those portals, and the subspace passage would be directly sealed.

But......... On the other hand, if you think about it, how easy can it be to have a task where the reward is an artifact like a reality anchor?

In fact, it's almost more difficult than Skyrim!

The content of the [Unspeakable Challenge] crossover event itself is actually not complicated, in simple terms, players go to a world, play an identity, and then solve various puzzles in that world, find the reasons behind those events, and solve them.

To put it bluntly, it's actually about letting the player play as a detective and then solve some homicide, disappearance, or some strange mysterious event or something.

Of course, if only that's it......... But the problem is that behind these events, there are some indescribable, indescribable great beings in the darkest and deepest corners of this world!

And every time a player encounters these great beings, as long as there is a fluctuation in their emotions, they will drop SAN points. And the more intense the mood fluctuates, the more the SAN value will fall, and once it is gone, it will directly GAMEOVER, and it can only be repeated.

To be honest, this is a very unfriendly setting for the player, as it's not like a normal quest where you can just get past the rush. In fact, during the linkage mission, many players complained that it was like running from the sudden FPS set to the ghost movie scene of the midnight bell in the blink of an eye, and it was all kinds of scary things at every turn. Of course, similar situations are not unheard of in the face of evil gods, but the problem is that the main quest does not have such a SAN value, and it is not impossible to play if you are scared.

However, this linkage task has a limit on the SAN value, which makes the player depressed.

Not only that, but there is also a very disgusting thing about this SAN value setting, that is, once the player's SAN value drops too much, then the world in his eyes will change. Players with full value only see the normal world, while players with too many SAN values may see a ground covered in flesh and blood, street lamps turned into white ribs, and light bulbs inside turned into writhing eyeballs......... If they drop more, even the NPCs on the road will no longer remain human in their eyes, but will become like wriggling earthworms......... Woo......... I feel sick to say it.

So for many players who are easily frightened, this linkage mission is simply a vicious circle——— after being scared, drop the SAN value——— the SAN value is lost too much, the world begins to distort——— see the distorted world, the more frightened the SAN value continues to fall—————— and then the world becomes more distorted——— and then the SAN value is cleared GAME OVER.

Therefore, for many players, this linkage task can be described as very difficult, not because it is difficult to set the monster itself or difficult to decrypt the steps, but the SAN value is set to directly detect the player's emotions without looking at their body values. The more intense the player's emotional ups and downs, the more SAN value will drop, after all, emotions are something you can't disguise.

So in the end, those who can clear the customs are basically some ruthless or heartless players, and many people can't get through it even if they want to clear it.

AFTER ALL, THIS SETTING IS TOO DISGUSTING, ESPECIALLY THE MORE PLAYERS WHO DROP THE SAN VALUE, THE MORE WORRIED THEY WILL BE OVER, AND THE MORE CAUTIOUS THEY ARE, THE MORE EASILY THEY ARE FRIGHTENED...............

On the contrary, players who have no heart and lungs are more likely to pass the level.

Of course, looking at how they look after they pass the level, it's hard not to wonder if they went crazy after doing the task, or if they went crazy before they did the task.........

By the way, due to the beginning of the linkage mission, there were too many players who were frightened and persuaded to quit by the SAN value, after receiving complaints and protests from players, the official added a small patch——— they updated a potion called sanity stabilizer in the mall, as long as you drink the potion, you can restore a certain SAN value, but if you use the potion, the evaluation will be reduced when the task is settled, and the more potions used, the lower the evaluation.

Of course, this costs money to buy.

This company is really desperate for money...............

But obviously, I can't meet this kind of good thing.

Silently opened the mall and took a look, making sure that there was no sanity stabilizer in it, Duanmu Huai also sighed silently.

Next, it's time to think about who to bring.

It's not that there are no players in the game who bring NPCs into this quest world, but to be honest, it's definitely a bad choice. At the beginning, many players felt that there was a specialization in the art industry, I was in charge of fighting, and NPCs were responsible for collecting and investigating, isn't that right?

As a result, the NAN value of NPCs dropped all the way and was cleared to zero, and after coming out of the mission world, these NPCs were either crazy or wasted, making players dumbfounded. The NPC entourage that Lao Tzu worked so hard to cultivate, Nima is so wasted? Turned into a madman??

This is also the second reason why the official will put Sanity Stabilizer on the shelves——— after all, the player's opinion is too big, so they can only use this method to appease the player.

As for those who are reluctant to spend money on sanity stabilizers to heal NPCs......... You can't even afford to spend money, but you're embarrassed to say you love her?

Well, once again, it proves that this company is Nima really wants money.

If it's just like this, it's not enough to make Duanmu Huai feel frightened, and the reason why he feels frightened is very simple, in the game, each linkage mission is equivalent to the "outpost" of the enemy that the player will encounter next, to put it bluntly, let the player feel a wave in the linkage mission first, at least it won't be so embarrassing.

And this quest appears here, which means that Nima Laozi is going to encounter some indescribable things in the future?!

Wait a minute...............

Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai suddenly remembered that when he was slashing the Elden Beast at the junction, the shape of the other party reminded him of a great existence in the infinite starry sky............... After a long time, did you guess right?

This Nima ......... It's not pleasant.

Of course, if you are unhappy, you will not be happy, and the linkage task must still be done. If you don't take such a good thing as a reality anchor, then you are really blind!

Now the question is......... Who will you take with you?

Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai began to think.

After all, the higher the intelligence, the higher the inspiration, and the easier it is to get in touch with the indescribable truth, so Ann, Gurea, and Filin are all excluded.

And Lani and Ogis can't bring it either, because according to the player's records, robots and the like are also vulnerable in that world. Although Lani and Ogis are not robots, they are also artificial, strictly speaking, and this must not be brought, in case it is affected, it will be troublesome.

Therefore, it is best to bring that kind of natural optimism, no heart and lungs, and smile when encountering anything......... Do I have such people around me?

Ann, Guraya, Lumiel............... Intelligence is too high to bring.

Lani, Ogis......... I don't dare to bring man-made objects.

Bambi, Kura, Audrey, Sydney, Ecclery, Kanami......... It's too weak to bring.

Satra, Sezer, Hauser, Hornnet......... I'm busy rebuilding the demon territory, and I don't have time.

So it seems......... The only one who can go with him is ......... Suzume and Lorena are gone?

Hmm, that doesn't seem bad either?

As a devout believer, Lorena is quite firm in her beliefs. And the bell girl is really heartless, giggling all day long. And their abilities are also useful in that world, Lorena's iron fist is invincible and can be responsible for healing, and Suzume can be responsible for reconnaissance and vigilance.........

Of course, it is up to them whether they want to go or not.

So Duanmu Huai found Lorena and Lingnu and explained the situation to them.

"Suzume is going! Sounds interesting: Meow~o(=∩ω∩=)m"

Sure enough, after listening to Duanmu Huai's description, Lingnu was the first to raise her hand excitedly, while Lorena thought for a moment, and then made up her mind and nodded at Duanmu Huai.

"I do, knight, I think this may be a test of my faith, and I will not run away from it! For me, this is also a kind of practice! ”

"Okay then."

Since Lorena said so, Duanmu Huai did not object, but nodded.

"Prepare, and let's go!"
