Chapter 360: The First City

"This question is obviously within the scope of the answer. As Ya Xi explained, you soon learned the whole story."

"It all started thousands of years ago,"

"In Yaxi's memory, before she was ten years old, her father was full of majesty and superior to others, just like an emperor with absolute power. But when the father and daughter were alone, he would show a gentle smile. He also said that he would select the seven brightest stars in the deep sky, string them together, and give them to Yaxi as a gift."

"But after Yaxi turned ten, the father who seemed to be high above him and omnipotent began to look up at the stars with a look of sadness on his face."

"The attitude towards other blasphemous wizards in the 'First City' is also becoming more and more critical."

"'Ya Xi' also asked her father if there was anything he was worried about, but the 'Powerful Wizard King' just smiled and patted her head without saying anything."

"Then, when I was sixteen..."

"The 'King of Power Wizards' suddenly found Yaxi. His face was no longer as gentle as before, but instead showed apology, reluctance, and sadness. He then brought Yaxi to a deep valley in the wild and said he wanted to play a game of 'hide and seek'. He told Yaxi that there were six 'royal sacrificial vessels' in the valley. As long as he found all of them and came out of the valley, he would win the game."

"Ya Xi was very smart and noticed something was wrong at the time, but her father's kindness was deeply rooted in her. In addition, the father and daughter always played games together in the past, so she didn't think much about it and started looking for him seriously."

"It took Yaxi an hour to find all six 'Royal Sacrificial Vessels' and successfully walked out of the valley."

"But I never thought,"

"Thousands of years have passed outside,"

……

Looking at the contents of the text, Yang Qizhou seemed to be thinking about something.

Sure enough,

The reason why Ya Xi traveled through thousands of years and appeared at this moment was entirely the work of the 'King of Power Wizards'.

According to the description in the text, this blasphemous wizard who holds the pillar of 'power' may have sensed the arrival of the 'day of the fall' and knew that he could not escape this catastrophe, so he made corresponding arrangements to protect his daughter.

But soon Yang Qizhou thought of something and his eyes narrowed as he looked at the phone screen.

"There are two strange things,"

"First, with the status and power of the 'Powerful Wizard King', can he really shake the script woven by the 'Lord of Blasphemy' and create another fulcrum for the plot line?"

"Secondly, if this 'Powerful Wizard King' has the means to escape the catastrophe of 'The Day of the Fall', why doesn't he use it on himself?"

For the second guess, Yang Qizhou could find many explanations, such as the status of the 'Power Wizard King' was too high to escape attention, or this method was only effective on low-level life forms, etc. However, for the first guess, he really had no clue.

At this time, the text was still refreshing automatically. Converging his divergent thoughts, Yang Qizhou quickly focused his attention on it.

……

"You look as if you had suddenly realized something. I had speculated before about the reason why 'Aki' traveled thousands of years, and now that the mystery has been revealed, I'm not surprised."

"Then many doubts arise in your mind."

"You looked at the little girl in front of you and thought about what to do next."

"Ya Xi is also looking at you, with nervousness in her big eyes and a worried expression. Although she is very smart, she is still a child after all. Now that she has suddenly lost her 'father' and is trapped in the wilderness where the unknown and terror coexist, she has already regarded you as her only support in her heart."

"I'm going to the 'Outer God's Temple'. Do you want to come with me? Tell me in advance. I will do my best to protect you as long as it does not threaten my own safety and interests. The rest depends on the situation."

"You didn't want to delay your return to the throne of the Lord of Blasphemy, but you were really curious about why Yaxi's request for help led to a branch of fate, so you made this suggestion."

"But to your surprise..."

"Yashi was not happy. Instead, his face turned pale and he shook his head vigorously."

"Is this little girl suspecting that I am up to something bad?"

"As soon as the ridiculous thought came into your mind, you knew you had misunderstood. Ya Xi suddenly removed the light curtain, walked up to you, pulled up the corner of your clothes, and said timidly... Mr. Explorer, can you take me back to the First City first? I, I, I want to get something."

"You refused, of course."

"I'm sorry, I have something important to do. If you insist on going back to the First City to get your things, then we can only say goodbye now."

"Axi's eyes were filled with tears, and he slowly loosened his hand with great disappointment... I'm sorry, Mr. Explorer, I was too willful. I actually wanted to exchange all the old offerings in the First City and part of the wealth for your company. I'm really sorry for the trouble I caused you."

"All the old offerings, and part of the wealth?"

"That little girl in front of me did say something like that, didn't she?"

"You didn't even think about it, you immediately yelled...wait."

"Aki turned around slowly with tears in her eyes. Her cute and pitiful look could melt an iceberg."

"I haven't finished talking yet, what's the matter with you... Then, you didn't care whether 'Ashi' believed it or not, and just kept talking... Of course, as a righteous explorer with noble qualities, my conscience tells me that when I see the weak, I must lend a helping hand, so I'll do you this favor."

"Ashi immediately smiled and shook your hand and said... Thank you, Mr. 'Adventurer'."

"Soon you will set off towards the majestic 'First City'."

"On the way,"

"You kept trying to hold back, but in the end you couldn't help it and asked...how many old sacrifices are there in the 'Infinite City'?"

"This question is obviously within the scope of the answer, Ya Xi showed an innocent smile and said... I don't know the details, but my father's accumulation of thousands of years should not be too little."

……

Game character, you change your face too quickly. Where is your dignity and style? As the returning 'Lord of Blasphemy', you will eventually rule the universe with the power of 'fate'. How can you bow down for a mere old sacrifice?

Yang Qizhou felt a strong condemnation in his heart.
But on second thought, if it were me, I would probably give in as well. After all, that was all the property of the 'Powerful Wizard King' and she gave me too much.

quickly,

Yang Qizhou seemed to have thought of something, and muttered to himself, "It seems that exploring the 'First City' is the key to the different destinies represented by these two choices. I just don't know if the following plot will reveal the reason why the script set by the 'Lord of Blasphemy' will be shaken."

The game continues.

……

"Thousands of years of accumulation by the 'Powerful Wizard King'?"

"Aki's description makes your heart surge with excitement, as if you have seen countless old sacrifices appear before your eyes."

"This journey is not peaceful. There are obviously more monsters wandering around the First City, and their power is even more terrifying. If Ya Xi were alone, I'm afraid I would be killed and devoured before I could take two steps."

"But for you who possess the trait of 'Lord of Blasphemy', these monsters are not a threat."

"As before, I used the power of the 'Hand of Fate' to manipulate the fate of nearby monsters and kill them in various exaggerated ways. Wherever I went, it was as if the god of death was walking on earth. Monsters fell to the ground one after another, paving a road made of interwoven bones."

"I don't know how much time has passed,"

"You have arrived at the main gate of 'First City'."

"What caught my eye was a towering gate, completely black. I didn't know what material it was made of. On both sides stood statues of gods holding divine spears in their hands, exuding unimaginable majesty."

"You didn't rush to open the door, but instead set your eyes on 'Aki' beside you."

"'First City' is a divine city ruled by the King of Powerful Wizards, which is comparable to the old kingdom of gods. Although thousands of years have passed, you don't believe that there is no extreme defense here."

"really,"

"You saw Yaxi walk up to the dark door and put his hand on it. A mysterious light shone out, and with a bang, the huge door slowly opened."

"Mr. Adventurer, this gate was blessed by my father and has an identification mechanism. If you do not have the qualifications to enter the First City and walk in rashly, you will be attacked by the two guarding statues with the power of the Lord of the Gods, and you will also have to endure my father's wrath."

"'Aki' then gave an explanation, but when she got to this point, her radiant face suddenly dimmed, and she murmured with a hint of sadness... I just don't know if these mechanisms can still function after thousands of years."

"You didn't know how to comfort him, so you just patted him on the head."

……

After seeing this text, Yang Qizhou suddenly felt deeply touched.

The sixteen-year-old girl should have been having the best time of her life, but suddenly she found herself thousands of years later. Her beloved father had passed away, and her former home had turned into a dead city. It is really hard to imagine how sad Ya Xi would be after experiencing all this.

"Nothing."

"There are many sad things in the world. I am not a savior. I just need to take care of the present."

Mumbling to himself, Yang Qizhou quickly organized his scattered thoughts and turned his attention back to the text.

……

"As you expected,"

"As the daughter of the 'Powerful Wizard King' and the 'Princess' of the First City, Ya Xi has sufficient knowledge of this city. Under her leadership, you successfully avoided many restrictions, found the right path, and set out into the city."

"certainly,"

"It's not like you didn't contribute a bit. There are still many monsters roaming around in the city. They are scarier than those outside. Some of them are even difficult for you to deal with."

"But fortunately, the journey was smooth."

"On the way, you suddenly thought of something and asked 'Ashi' casually... where are the old offerings in 'First City' stored?"

"This is obviously within the scope of the answer, 'Ashi' then said... The old festival is mainly composed of three parts, namely my father's private treasury, the public treasury of the 'First City', and the residence of the 'gods' and 'supernatural beings' living in the 'First City'."

"After a pause, Ya Xi continued... I suggest abandoning the residences of the gods and extraordinary beings, because searching them one by one is a waste of time. After all, thousands of years have passed, and there is no guarantee that dangers that I am not aware of may have evolved."

"You nodded. 'First City' is infinitely vast, with no end in sight. It is unrealistic to plunder it one by one."

"At this time, another monster appeared in the deep fog, roaring horribly, with strange power, rushing out of the darkness and wanting to kill you."

"However, you had already discovered this hidden danger. Before it arrived in front of you, you had already used the power of the Hand of Fate to wipe out its life, and a head also rolled down in the distance."

"You seemed to have done something very insignificant. He clapped his hands and continued to ask... Which place should we go to first, the private treasury of the 'Powerful Wizard King' or the public treasury of the 'First City'?"

"The public treasury of the 'First City'."

"'Ashi' had obviously already made plans. He answered immediately without any hesitation."

"You asked... why 'public treasury'."

"'Aki' replied... because there are more 'old offerings' in the public treasury, and it is easier to sneak into it than in his father's 'private treasury'."

"latent?"

"You were keenly aware of the hidden meaning of this sentence and showed a suspicious expression."

"Ashi scratched her head in embarrassment... Well, although I am the daughter of the 'Power Wizard King', I do not have the authority to enter the 'Public Treasury' and the 'Private Treasury'."

"So I sneaked in. Good guy, really good guy."

"When you look at Ya Xi, it's as if you see a naughty kid, a devil who is wreaking havoc on the world."

"Then you set out again."

……

The game characters are quite alert, Yang Qizhou narrowed his eyes.

Perhaps it was because the connection between the game and the real world was getting closer and closer. Although it was not expressed in the text, he knew it naturally from his feeling. The game character had never let down his guard against "Axi", and the perception of the soul and fate had never stopped.
But for now,

'Aki' certainly showed no ill intentions.

"Does the 'public treasury' have more old sacrifices? That's right. The private treasury is the wealth accumulated by the 'Powerful Wizard King' for thousands of years, while the public treasury is the wealth accumulated by many blasphemous wizards, gods, and extraordinary lives in the entire 'First City'. In terms of volume, the public treasury naturally has the advantage."

"With the savings in the First City's public treasury, there shouldn't be any problem in supporting the game character's promotion to the 'Great Lord of the Divine Spirit'. If the performance is good enough, it's not impossible to reach the 'Old King' level."

Yang Qizhou muttered to himself, looking at the phone screen, his eyes filled with anticipation.

The text is still being updated...
