Players please close your eyes

Chapter 396 396.【Lantern Festival】

Players are still studying the game, but for Qiao Mu, life must go on.

He asked Xiao Ai to develop subsequent updates, including points, stores, etc. Anyway, they were copied from the Chosen game. Qiao Mu was a little curious. If this game continued to develop, would it be possible to trace the origin of the Chosen game? .

Moreover, all the major Chosen Organizations also have some understanding of it and use this game to do their own things.

Therefore, there should not be millions of Chosen gamers jumping out and saying that he plagiarized.

Reassured.

Qiao Mu lived as usual, occasionally eating with the old lady next door, and occasionally settling down in the small restaurant downstairs. He was not at all like a developer of a globally popular game, plain and boring.

Spring has arrived again, and Jiangcheng has already been blown by the warm wind, with birds singing and dancing, and it is full of vitality.

Qiao Mu sat by the Lingjiang River.

Old people took their children out for an outing, middle-aged people in sportswear exercised along the track, and there were also young college students who came out to take photos.

He sat on a bench and looked at the buildings across the river.

Suddenly, Qiao Mu saw that the clouds in the sky were turbulent, turning from pure white to dark gray, and then to pitch black. There seemed to be a huge object hiding in it, looming.

Those clouds drifted across the Lingjiang River and came to Qiao Mu's head.

Only then did he see that the clouds looked like a mixture of gray flesh and blood, with countless eyes and mouths inside, constantly moving, horrifying and weird.

From between the clouds, tendrils of flesh and blood descended from the sky and extended towards Qiao Mu.

He saw repressed and crazy words floating on these tentacles.

【Lantern Festival】

[The old city is a place of drunkenness and glamor. The neon lights of the city that never sleeps are flashing. Amidst the people drinking and drinking, no one can sleep tonight.]

[In the bustling city, someone sets up a gambling game, attracting everyone to flock to it. The chips can be anything, even souls can be put on the gambling table]

[Some people do it for wealth, some people do it for fame, some people do it for excitement, and some people just want to live. Everyone has different reasons for entering the game, just for the last move to win half the world]

[You come to the old city to participate in this game that even the rich cannot afford, just to win everything. The Lantern Festival is approaching, but some people can never be reunited]

[The game of money, the silent war, and the shadow hidden behind the curtain, all the answers are at the end of the gambling table]

Clearly, this is the mission statement for the Chosen game.

"I didn't expect that three months have passed."

Qiao Mu's life is simple and boring, and he has a very weak concept of time.

"The old city, and it's a gambling game. I don't know if Ah Shan is here."

Qiao Mu felt that this kind of mission to a foreign land where he had acquaintances was quite good. It was equivalent to bringing a companion with him.

Moreover, this task means you can eat and drink for free at a glance, which is Qiao Mu's favorite.

With the intention of reading it first, he looked at the second tentacle.

The oppressive and crazy words appeared on the tentacles.

[The sky is clear today]

[The ticking sound of radio waves forms a simple and easy-to-understand text: It’s raining in the Valley of the Wind]

[This rain has lasted for thousands of years. The two sides of the war have eroded and degenerated in this rain. People are in illusions and it is difficult to distinguish between reality and dreams. You need to write words on things to vaguely distinguish them.]

[Just as the rainy season comes without warning, the rainy season also ends without warning. On a sunny day, people are still intoxicated in their dreams, mistakenly thinking that this is the dream in the cradle]

[You come here, facing the long-lost sunny sky, and the war is ignited again. In that place where dreams and reality intersect, you will witness the reality of the world]

[Please always check whether you are in a dream now]

"Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, and it keeps raining?"

Qiao Mu doesn't like rainy days very much, especially the plum rain season here in Jiangcheng. It lasts for a month, and the clothes can't be dried, and the quilt feels wet. If the weather gets colder, the sourness will be beyond words.

However, the weather in Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind is not the same as here. A rain over there can last a thousand years. If it rains here also for a thousand years, everything will be in chaos.

Moreover, Qiao Mu had seen the giant beasts of the Valley of the Wind before. The dreams of those huge monsters would also create countless creatures, and even humans would be immersed in them. It is difficult to guarantee that the falling rain is not the dream of some transcendent being.

"But there is always a war in Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind."

He remembered that in the mission description of Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind that he had read before, the background was a war. It seemed that it was a protracted war with a thousand years of rest in between, which was really rare.

Qiao Mu looked at the third tentacle.

The words on it are still messy.

【Seeking medicine】

[In Penglai, life is not about immortality]

[Once upon a time, this land was also plagued by injuries, pains of life and death, and was ravaged by wars and disasters. Until many years later, the emperor received an oracle from an immortal and sent a messenger to seek medicine far away, hoping to obtain the elixir of immortality. My own rule lasts for eternity]

[In Penglai at that time, demons were dancing wildly, and all living beings were in ruins. The road to seeking medicine was difficult and dangerous, and there was no life for ten people.]

[You join the team seeking medicine and face the intrigues and dangerous threats along the way. There is only one answer to support your progress]

[When everything is settled, you finally find the elixir of immortality, but at what cost? 】

"Penglai, but it seems to be related to the source of the elixir?"

Qiao Mu often checked the status of "My Civilization Simulator" during this period, and he also had some understanding of the time and space confusion in these Chosen games.

The mission of Penglai is obviously to go to Penglai in ancient times, before the First Emperor became truly immortal, and to join the team of envoys seeking medicine at that time.

"It looks very dangerous."

Qiao Mu judged.

According to Qiao Mu's idea, because he has already been to Penglai in the future, what he can do when he goes to Penglai in the past at this time should be limited, because the future is equivalent to being anchored by the cognition of the chosen one.

"Sure enough, should we still go to Ah Shan?"

Qiao Mu thought about it and felt that among the three missions, only the mission in the old city could be enjoyed by a discerning person at a glance.

There is a war in the Valley of the Wind, and Penglai is in the wilderness. It is better to have a good meal in the big hotel in the old city, chat with Ashan, and tell him what Qiao Mu discovered during this period.

However, Qiao Mu was not the child in the kindergarten who cried and made trouble because he could not buy toys. He did not choose the task immediately, but decided to see if there were any good things in the store.

He now has nearly 100,000 Chosen points, and he can buy whatever he wants. If the store refreshes treasures such as elixirs, wouldn't he be able to complete the mission while lying down?

Thinking of this, Qiao Mu lowered his head and immediately checked the Chosen Store.
