Putting Amos back into the petri dish to make a can, Rann pondered what he meant, and sensed that something big was about to happen.

At this moment, Rann suddenly felt that the plants arranged in the Aldous Research Institute were suddenly touched, and the hyacinths in the air seemed to be transmitting something to him.

He calmed down, and the voice of Hyacinth rang in his ears.

"Do you remember anything?"

"I ......"

In Aldous's research room, Job sits on the lab bench in confusion, with a tired Alexis and Aldous in front of them, both of whom are trying to find a way to regain the strange sanity in Job's body.

Black Cat and Druid are also helping, the reason why they were calm and didn't go directly to the new map to participate in the main story is because Job, the biggest breakthrough point, is here, and the two professors Aldous have no way to contact the outside world freely in the divine realm, and the two stay can be regarded as an intelligence channel for many players.

Now the choice to stay has paid off.

Under the nervous gaze of the two players and the professor, Job murmured softly, "I remember...... I got lost in the fog and suddenly went to another world. ”

"Another world?" Aldous frowned and asked, "What kind of world is that?" ”

"It's wonderful, it's terrible......," says Job, slowly, like a babbling child, every word needs to be remembered and carefully considered before he can utter.

"The ground and the ground are black, lifeless, and green, and the plants that grow are huge, twisted, and weird, and they are not food, but predators, and the water, the water, is polluted, and it is colorful."

"Every creature is the same twisted and terrible, and its only food is each other, and they prey on each other...... "Job said slowly.

Aldous and Alexis listened quietly to Job's story, especially Aldous, who quickly took a notebook and recorded what Job said, while the druid and the black cat listened with bewildered faces.

"Are there any particularly striking geological features there? For example, towering giant trees, valleys and the like? Aldous asked.

“…… Yes," said Job, looking up blankly at the ceiling of the institute, as if recalling through the ceiling, "there was a round, a great red full moon, very large, very large, that it took up almost a third of the sky, like, very close to us. ”

A red full moon?

The black cat and the druid looked at each other, and both saw a look of surprise in each other's eyes.

Speaking of the red full moon, the player's first impression is the plot animation of the first main line, the red moon seen in the door to the dream world.

In other words, the weirdness in Job's body went to the dream world?

Of course, compared to the solemnity of the professors, the excitement of the two players at the moment is even higher.

What does this mean? Means new maps!

And it's also the dream world, a super difficult map that has been laid out since the beginning of the game.

As we all know, the higher the difficulty of the map, the greater the rewards!

Aldous went on to ask, "Then do you remember how you came back into this person's body?" ”

The two professors also revealed an irrepressible desire to explore from their solemnity.

The existence of weirdness and the dream world is not a secret to Mi-Mi, but there is a study of the origin of weirdness, weirdness is not a blank, but there are also many unknown places, and now there is finally a weirdness that can be communicated, and this weirdness used to be human.

This may be the key to solving the strange mystery of humanity, and this does not excite them.

"I ...... All I remember is that I want to go home. Job said, suddenly bursting into tears, "I want to go home, I want to go back, I want to go back!" ”

He began to go crazy again, and signs of uneven worms began to appear under his skin, and Alexis immediately sprayed the spray on Job's face, and Job coughed twice, and his mood gradually calmed down.

Aldous: "Are you okay?" Can it continue? ”

Job did not speak, but then spoke: "I must have been wandering the earth for a long time...... It's been so long that I can't remember that time, and then I seem to have come across ......"

As he spoke, he paused suddenly.

"What's wrong?"

“…… I don't have that memory anymore. "He held his head, his expression was confused, I can't remember, I just knew that suddenly he had returned to the fog from that strange world, and in the fog he couldn't see anything, he couldn't hear anything, the only salvation we knew, the only salvation we knew, to find people, to find those places where they could enter, to eat, to kill, to eat, to kill, to kill......"

His voice began to tremble again, this time even the spray didn't work, but even then he was still speaking, fast and urgent: "I ate the man, and I came back here, surrounded by a lot of people, all clapping and smiling. ”

"Okay, don't be in such a hurry, calm down." Alexis endured the tingling of his scalp and put his hand on Job's shoulder, "Let's find a way, you don't have to push yourself so close." ”

Job was silent all of a sudden, he raised his head and stared directly at Alexis, his face expressionless, even revealing a strangeness:

And he said, Find the ark of the covenant, and give it to the lord.

"He said that angels were about to come down to earth to announce His coming."

The reactions of those present were different.

Aldous and Alexis' expressions became more and more serious, and the clues they revealed from Job's mouth seemed to have felt that the conspiracy behind them was gradually approaching, and the player was naturally excited, these two sentences were obviously the major clues of the next main quest!

The purpose of the third-party forces of the Inspection Bureau has finally surfaced!

The black cat took a deep breath, opened the task template, turned in the information, and as expected, the first act task was completed, and even the second act task just jumped out and showed that it was completed.

The mission in the second act is to capture the suspect, but as soon as it pops up, it is already shown that it is completed, and the MVP is undoubtedly the tax officer.

It's outrageous that the man behind the Doctor was really sent to prison by him.

Then, the third act mission jumps out.

[Act III: The Angel Descends.]

Quest content: He is about to walk on the earth, but it is not the gospel but destruction, Orran is about to become the altar of his coming, please try to prevent the 'angels' from coming, or save the people who are suffering.

Difficulty: Hell

Number of people to receive the task: Unlimited.

Rewards: Regional prestige is turned to friendly, and charm, speech, and combat skills are greatly improved. 】

[Act IV: The Ark of the Covenant.]

Quest content: You have learned from the monster what is the purpose of the mastermind, what is the Ark of the Covenant? Why do they want it? I don't know, but what the bad guys want, we have to get our hands on in advance.

Difficulty: Nightmare

Number of people to receive the task: Unlimited

Rewards: Skillful, stealth, and combat skills have been greatly improved, but be careful to cause hostility in the Inspectorate's faction. 】

Two missions were directly out at once! This shows that their choice is indeed right, and the main quest has been greatly advanced!

[It's worthy of a druid and a black cat, even if it's not in Orlan, you can actually push the main line]

【HHHH is good! It feels like the main story is coming to the climax! 】

[I'm ready!] I'm ready! 】

With excitement written on their faces, the druid and the black cat quickly bid farewell to the two professors.

Aldous: "Where are you going?" ”

"Orlando, of course, the people there need us!" The druid immediately said righteously.

"That's right, a great catastrophe is about to happen there, and the people don't know anything yet, we're going to save them!" The black cat accosted.

Aldous looked at them in amazement, stretched out his hands in a half-sound, and patted the druid and the black cat on the shoulders respectively: "It's hard for me to say anything to stop you, even if I have sent countless excellent students for this." ”

"Professor......

"Go," said Aldous, "must come back alive!" ”

Alexis hesitated for a moment, and took out a rusty-looking necklace from his pocket: "Take this too." ”

The druid was confused, and after seeing the pentagram above, he looked at Alexis in amazement.

The professor of the monster department smiled: "This is the talisman I used to go on adventures when I was young, the secret of my countless survival from the evil gods. ”

"Of course, it's just a loan to you, and it's going to be repaid," Alexis pointed to the druid's chest, "and you'll have to pay it back yourself." ”

The druid tightened the old seal in his hand, and the words he wanted to say choked in his throat for a moment.

He wanted to say that he might not be able to come back alive, he wanted to say that death was not a big deal for them, and he wanted to say that after the end of the main story this time, the old players didn't know how many more would come back alive.

But looking at the faces of the two professors, there was no way for these words to break through the throat.

It's easy to die, but it's hard to live.

"Well, don't make the atmosphere so sad," Aldous humorously said, "you have overwhelmed our students, go ahead, we didn't have to be any less of you for the adventures we had when we were young, and we are not still standing here." ”

The black cat wanted to complain for a while, but he held back, and he and the druid walked out of the institute to find that there were professors from other departments waiting outside.

"Hey, professors, aren't you going to class?"

Potions professor Larkin rolled his eyes: "Recently, the students have run out, what kind of class is this." ”

The black cat smiled awkwardly, okay, because the main plot is in Orlandu, everyone went over there to join in the fun.

"You're going too, take this too." Larkin turned sideways, revealing a large pocket in the back.

The druid stepped forward to take a look, his eyes were full of shock, his pockets were full of potions, although most of them were healing red pills, but there were as many as a big bag!

"Don't run crazy and run fast, I didn't have time to hand it over to her." "I know it's hard to stop you, at least these things should come in handy when it matters." ”

[Woo woo woo this is the old player's network qwq]

[God, there is also this benefit of joining Mi-Tan, the old seal and the free supply of potions, it's so good]

[@不疯, your professor loves you so much]

[Not crazy: No, he's an old tsundere

Yes, he didn't boil any medicine when I left, and he must have heard that a big event was about to happen, so he prepared. 】

Not only the professors of the Potions Department, but also the lecturers of other departments, more or less noticed something from the disappearance of the old players, and followed Larkin here, not all the teachers of the department prepared things, but they brought valuable experience from their youth.

"I used to fight a heretic who tried to summon an evil god, and I first took a chili pepper and choked him so that he couldn't spit out a spell, and then went up and kicked him in the lower three lanes, which was particularly effective." said the professor of the Department of Combat.

[Good guy, will you also be troublesome? 】

"That's right, if you are dying, you don't have to worry about your pride," the professor of history slowly, "it's really not good, you can prepare a big dung bomb in advance." 】

[Mop, just like Lu Bu is alive, is it hhhh]

[I'm curious about what professors experienced when they were younger.] 】

[I'm too, when will this reproduction copy be released.] 】

The physics professor quietly pulled them aside, coughed and said, "If you really can't beat them, why don't you try picking each other's pants in close combat...... Sometimes it works wonders! Ahem, don't tell anyone I've done it. ”

[Professor, it's late, now everyone knows.] 】

[I got the professor's handle, and when I came back to school, I threatened the professor to let him open a small stove for me]

[Woo woo woo I seem to be on the top of the university, give the child a chance! ] 】

A total of less than 200 meters away from the school gate in a straight line, the black cat and the druid walked for 10 minutes, during which they got the experience passed on by various professors or weapons, potions, herbs, and other emergency things, and they didn't plan to eat it alone, and agreed with other players in the live broadcast room, and when they arrived in Orlan, they would share the spoils, ah no, share.

Eventually, they saw Rann appear at the school gate.

"I ...... Lord Rann. The black cat blurted out.

[Alert, Black Cat, did you just want to call him 'my lord' like the other believers in Ranne?] 】

[It has gradually changed into the shape of Ran. 】

[It is worthy of being the first player fan of the Hidden Church.] 】

"Lord Lann, is there anything wrong with you?" The druid's eyes were shining, and Mo Fei Lann also had any artifacts or something like that he wanted to give them?

Oh, that's so funny!

"It's fine." Rann was actually just standing here listening to the news from Hyacinth, and he didn't expect the Black Cat and the Druid to come here.

But since I've come here, I can't say it without participating.

Rann thought for a moment, thinking that if a real big war started, he would inevitably be involved in this whirlpool, so it was better to arrange a hand now, just in case.

Thinking of this, he said, "Stretch out your hands. ”

The druid and the black cat stretched out their hands in confusion, palms upward, Rann's hand swept over them, and the palms of the two players instantly appeared one after another, and they were put together to form a complex structure.

"What is this?"

"Call me with a point-in prayer," Rann said, giving him a deep look at the druid and the black cat, "of course, there is a price. ”

That's right, this is the forbidden circle that appeared a long time ago, and can connect different evil gods through different rituals and prayers.

In the previous life, the player stole it from the depths of the Inspection Bureau, and this time it was Rann who took the initiative to give it to the player.

"Will you be a part of this event?" The black cat asked a nonsense.

"Who made me and Him natural rivals?" Rann was meaningful.

It was as if he had a lot to do with the third-party force hidden in the inspection bureau, but in fact, he didn't, Rann was just casually looking for an excuse to participate.

But this is not wrong, if 'he' is going to come in the name of God, then the god of faun, who is the origin of the devil's image, and this God are indeed enemies.

But the player clearly misunderstood something, and the black cat's eyes lit up noticeably.

"There are a lot of humans in the Inspectorate who have been replaced by the Odds," Rann said, "and be careful not to let the Ark of the Covenant fall into their hands." ”

The black cat reacted immediately: "Their goal of letting the weird replace humans is to get the Ark of the Covenant?" ”

"That's right."

"What is this Ark of the Covenant?"

Good question. Rann thought to himself if he only knew.

Of course, it can't be said directly, Rann thought about what Kerry had said about what Kerry had said before, and copied it directly: "That's ...... The covenant that God made with mankind. ”

Black Cat, Druid: ...... Well, they know, the Riddler.

"Also," Rann suddenly pointed to the University of Michigan badge on the two of them, "When you save people, you'd better wear the University of Michigan badge." ”

The black cat was stunned, why did he know that we were going to save people?

and wearing the University of Michigan badge...... Is it any use?

……

The players left.

After listening to Hyacinth's message, Rann was not very unexpected.

The Doctor's purpose of letting the Strange replace the human has been conveyed to him before, and now Job's statement is to supplement this information from the other side, it seems that the Doctor has a special method of brainwashing or suggestion, and this method also has an effect on the Strange, allowing them to remember their mission.

At the same time, Rann also felt a storm coming, no matter what, the Doctor could not abandon his plan just because he was by the player once, and it was even very likely that he would advance the plan.

Thinking of this, Rann did not directly re-transfer his consciousness, but closed his eyes and entered the gap in the dream.

He walked up to the platform on the third floor, and as expected, the platform on the fourth floor was also open to him.

Kerry's point of light hovers beside Rann and leads the way up the stairs, which Lane follows up the stairs to the new fourth platform.

As before, there is a stone table on the fourth platform with two things on it.

One of them is a strange key, the whole key is silver and red, the lower part is silver and white, the upper part seems to be inlaid with a round red opal, there is a stripe similar to an eye in the middle, the red opal is wrapped in silver and white, like the sun all over the divergent stripes.

Ran's gaze was uncontrollably directed towards the key, and a strong longing was felt in his heart that he had never felt before, and when he came back to his senses, he had already held the key in his hand.

The key immediately turned from physical to incorporeal, and vanished into Ran's palm as he closed it, leaving only a tattoo of the key.

Unlike before, this time there was no information intuitively, but Rann knew the use of this prop directly.

And this usage also made him can't help but beat faster.

This key can open any door in the world.

And, of course, the door to the dream world.

This is different from the authority of the Faun, which is close to His Origin.

Rann let out a slow breath, calming his excitement a little, and turned his head to look at something else.

This thing is more mysterious, it feels like it has no substance, it is not so much on it as it is suspended less than a millimeter above the stone table, like a dark blue jellyfish, it looks dull and easy to poke.

Rann couldn't help but poke his hand, it was really cold to the touch, and even the hand felt like a jellyfish.

The jellyfish looked up dumbfounded, and although it didn't have a long face or eyes, Rann somehow knew it was heading in his direction, as if it was recognizing something, and a second later, it levitated, floated in front of Ran's eyes, and melted into his body.

Originally, the jellyfish seemed to want to integrate into Rann's brain, but was cut off by the dice halfway through, and Rann seemed to see the jellyfish gradually being pulled into the dice by an unknown force.

Soon a flurry of information appeared in his mind.

[Intelligence/Inspiration Judgment greatly increased]

Rann:......

It turns out that Kerry's origin ability is similar to broadening the brain domain and increasing inspiration, which is indeed very beneficial to research, but the combat power is touching.

……

Player forums.

Black Cat and the Druid didn't skimp and shared the information they got at the Aldous Institute to the forum.

"Dream World New Map and Main Story Quest Important Clues"

Aaron: Good guy, that's a lot of information, what the hell is an angel coming? The mythical kind?

Finos: Maybe it's like a metaphor? It can't really be an angel in the Bible.

1. Get rich at night: Speaking of the setting of the dream world, it feels very interesting.,I should open a map in the future.,Looking forward to it.。

Do health exercises every day: Current information: 1. Weirdness is a mutation of the soul of human beings lost in the fog. 2. Weird and suspicious will return to the dream world. 3. The weirdness of returning to the dream world has a way to return to the dream gap again. 4. The doctor has the ability to brainwash the weird or make him obedient, in order to find out the internal ark of the inspection bureau. 5. The 'angel' is coming.

Meg: 6. It's time for the player to save the world again!

Ten Miles of Bright Moon: The key to this mission should lie in the 'mysterious' Ark of the Covenant.

Black Cat: Well, it should be in the inspection bureau, otherwise there is no need for that mysterious force to bother so much, what is the situation in Orlandu now?

Matcha Custard: I've arrived at the new map and everything looks fine.

Druid: Do we need to do something, like warn the citizens of this place in advance, otherwise if the evil god descends on the city, it will cause a lot of casualties.

Xuan Gray: Uh, wait, aren't passers-by NPCs all able to generate a lot of data with one click?

Be a salted fish: This game is not necessarily, the level of intelligence is too high, alas, no matter, anyway, the evil god of my weekday running group is coming, and I should save it, although it is to fit the character of the character card.

The dead house squatting at home: immersive play, everyone! I'm going to do it, I'm not afraid of being embarrassed in the game anyway.

Fig: And me~

Black Cat: Okay, then when we get to Orlandu, those who want red medicine will wait for us at the airport, and the others who want to save people can go and save people, and inform the people here in advance that there is about to be a disaster, and the players who are still in the inspection bureau should try to find out the location of the ark of the covenant if they can, and never let the weird get it.

Mo Bai: Understand~

exsiflj：okok~：，，.
