I am a reincarnation player.

.......

It really works. I said that this is not just a simple team building, there must be some kind of authority above it.

At the same time, Yuki clenched his fists. He could tell from Philen what kind of team could pull the 'Ether Particle' players to his side. Not only was there no cost, but they could also use the same team with different camps to mix evaluation points.

Why does the Wizard's Tower seem so 'easy'? Isn't it because of the separate scoring that allows him, a lone ranger, to always stand at the top of the players?

But is Yuki really alone? In the entire game, there are probably few companions more reliable than the senpai and the others.

"This way, Liang Yi Mana can be considered as entering the core circle. With the indenture, there won't be much of a problem."

Yuki was not worried. Her background was more complicated than Philen's, but her conditions were also much more demanding than Philen's. She was just being cautious and adding more tests.

This is a layer of nesting dolls. The core is Yuki himself, and the outer circle is the team members. Whether for safety or team harmony, they must be cautious.

Well, I'll explain it to the senior later. This is very clever and shouldn't disrupt the harmony of the team.

Yuki always felt a little uneasy, but he had to retract his attention when he officially entered the copy. He looked at the porthole, but the speed was too fast and the earth was pitch black. He could not see anything clearly. Only the red pupils reflected the stars.

This should be the lamp of the soul.

The demon's vision couldn't penetrate the thin glass, and the sound was also blocked. Yuki could only judge based on his intuition and do math problems in his head.

If we multiply the flight speed by the flight time, this Dark Continent is more than 50 million square kilometers?

The stage is indeed big enough. Even an epic-level player would find it difficult to control all the information, not to mention being the first to stick his head out. In any case, Yuki has never thought about flying at high speed in the sky.

Starting to slow down.

Yuki held the back of the chair. With such a terrifying acceleration, the high-back chair seemed to be stuck to the floor without moving at all. It was enough to make Newton jump out of the coffin and die again.

Fortunately, he was already accustomed to the 'science' of the reincarnation game, and he only stared at the landing capsule not far away, watching the starlight on the ground getting closer and closer.

The Dark Continent is as dark as ink. The altitude has dropped to less than a thousand meters, but the outline of any object cannot be seen outside the window. The only preliminary judgment can be made based on the "starlight" passing by below.

Gathered together, not many people, is this a small town?

A few seconds later, as he was about to hit the ground, the starlight finally had an illuminating effect. Yuki saw the wooden house and the endless forest, and then subconsciously lowered his center of gravity.

Boom—boom—

The trees were crushed and the walls disintegrated at a speed visible to the naked eye. Yuki, who was taking a resistance posture, blinked and took a step forward due to inertia.

Holding the staff in his hand, the landing capsule that had just wrapped him completely disintegrated, turning into a long string of fragments that scattered behind him, and there was also a long string of fragments in front of him, just like a diving team from a certain country.

Elegant, precise, and seemingly breathtaking, it actually does the job just right.

It's completely different from the "Global Insect Plague". That high-tech landing capsule was left to the defense forces for research.

Yuki thought instinctively, staring at the girl in front of him who was crouching with her head in her hands. The moment he stepped out of the landing capsule, dawn broke in the sky, and endless light dispelled the darkness.

The dark green forest and the distant mountains came into view. On the left side of the two black marks was a wooden house. A bearded man was sticking his head out with a hunting rifle, staring blankly.

The last moment of a dark night.

Aliens fell into the mainland.

Chapter 2: Dark Continent

Dark Continent, Western Black Forest, Oak Town.

Yuki was playing with a lever-action shotgun. The technological level of this world was equivalent to that of Earth in the early twentieth century.

There was a map on the wall of the room. Judging from the scale, the Dark Continent was 1.5 times the size of the Eurasian Continent. The oval-shaped continent was surrounded by the ocean and was dotted with pearl-like islands. Throwing more than a hundred players into such a vast area was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

As for the kingdoms, empires, and republics on the Dark Continent, he did not consider them. As an alien, Yuki simply entered the attack mode the moment he landed, and then systematically gathered intelligence.

"I've asked almost all the questions. What do you want to hear?" Mana came over wearing thick glasses. This rich girl certainly had mental power props. She controlled hundreds of residents in this small town in an instant and could even ask about the color of their underwear.

Yuuki took out a bottle of wine from the cupboard, sat in the mayor's seat, and crossed his legs.

"Pick out the important ones, especially the information about the dungeon background, the Night Watch, and famous landmarks."

"Okay, brother." Mana knelt down and seemed to get into the mood. She changed into a black and white long dress, like a lady from a noble family.

The residents of the Dark Continent hate the night and are filled with fear. There are many versions of the myth, but they all have one thing in common.

"The darkness eats people. This isn't just a ghost story to scare children. I just looked up the information about Oak Town. Dozens of people go missing every year. Considering the town only has a population of around a thousand, that's a terrifying number."

"Well, there's a pattern to their cannibalism, mainly targeting the elderly and children. If they lose their soul lamps, or the light is too dim, they will disappear." Yuki didn't read the information, but he guessed it.

When they just landed, they met a hunter, who gloated and said that the two of them would not survive more than three nights. Yuki was too lazy to talk nonsense and directly asked Mana to use the mental power item.

Then this is the light of the soul.

Yuki fixed his eyes on the desk, where there were dozens of objects of different shapes, some large and some small. Some looked like brooches, some looked like lanterns, but they all burned with snow-white flames.

The flame is not very bright during the day, but at night, it shines like starlight. If you hold it in your hand and look closely, you can see that it burns continuously without any fuel.

Switching to the demon's vision, you can see souls flickering in every lamp, connected by a dotted line to the men, women, young and old standing in the small square.

It is a bound item that cannot be snatched or swallowed, and will go out when it exceeds a certain distance. If there is no mental control, taking away someone's light is equivalent to murder, no, it is the worst kind of murder, and the entire town will attack you.

"The lights on the elderly, children, and patients are weaker, and they can also be matched with the missing list. People here don't have to carry money, but they must wear lights. Do you know why the shape is different?"

"The shape is crafted by the craftsmen. The smaller and easier it is to carry, the more expensive it is." Mana had already asked clearly and pointed to a man wearing a black uniform, a tricorn hat, and an unshaven beard.

"This is the craftsman. Every human settlement has one. He creates a soul lamp for every newly born native. He is also the night watchman in the background story."

Yuki glanced at him, then looked at a lotus-like soul lamp, which shone the brightest and most stable.

“Like priests and churches?”

"They are not responsible for preaching, tut tut, but you don't know that he is the king of the town and can do whatever he wants to the residents." Mana wrinkled his nose, looking very contemptuous.

Yuki thought it was normal. If he had the power, why not use it? The night watchman was the one who truly controlled life and death. If he didn't deliver a baby, or if he could delay it, the baby wouldn't survive the first night.

Picking up the information at hand, Mana had already asked for all the relevant information.

First, the Night's Watch is a transnational organization with offices in every human settlement.

Second, the job of the night watchman is to build and maintain the lamp of the soul and explore the secrets of the night. Of course, the latter cannot be done by the night watchman of this small town.

Third, the Night's Watchmen are not allowed to marry, have children, or hold official positions, so this oath has no binding force.

Fourth, the Night's Watch has extraordinary powers, which are divided into levels 1-9. The level 9 Night's Watch is almost at the extraordinary level. The main weapon is a firearm, and the attack method is very similar to the Hunter's musket. They all split their own souls to fill bullets and shoot them out.

"That's strange. Since the soul light is proportional to the individual's strength, why are our lights so dim?" Manas pointed to the silver badge on his chest, in which a faint soul fire was leaping.

Yuuki also looked at his own. His badge was black and red, and the shape was slightly different, but the light was just as dim.

Glancing at the various soul lamps on the table, I couldn't tell who the player was from their appearance. After all, the mayor's lamp was more exquisite and more magnificent.

The more krypton gold you spend, the more detailed the craftsman's work will be, which to some extent represents class. No wonder this girl wants to change into an aristocratic long dress.

"Because the reincarnation game requires us to kill each other, this dungeon has no time limit. If we are not afraid of the dark, we can just find a place to hide. How can others find us?"

"That's right. Otherwise, we can pretend to be sick and avoid being searched by other players." Mana tilted his head, his eyes suddenly lighting up. "Oh, and there's another important piece of information. The Night Watch can only repair the Soul Lamp, not brighten it, but we players can."

This is written in the background story. Yuki also fought against Orion, but was unable to snatch his brighter lamp, nor could he integrate the light into his own lamp.

"As I said, the game doesn't let players hide. If you do nothing, the lights will go out in two nights at most, and you'll be plunged into darkness before the tide comes."

"Oh yes, and there's the Night Tide. This thing is another horror story. Wherever it appears, thousands of people disappear, like a plague." Manas's little face wrinkled into a ball, and he lay lazily on the table, lamenting.

"What should we do now? The tide of darkness will probably blow out our lights in an instant. Do we really have to rely on brute force to break free? And I'm so worried about Illya. Invincible Mr. Raymond, please think of a solution quickly."

True love controls people. They have enough IQ but are unwilling to use their brains.

Yuki rolled his eyes. Ryogi Mana was not mature enough, not to mention steady. She was just like a young lady. It turned out that the player's reincarnation was also very important. Someone like him had no one to shelter him from the wind and rain.

"Be patient. Completing a dungeon is a process of unraveling the mystery. You need to do two things first."

"First, find a way to make this soul fire appear at its normal level. I don't want to pretend to be sick and weak, and I don't want to be noticed by the natives."

"Second, use props to tamper with their memories, delete the sound of landing, and implant new memories. We are the sons of nobles who have traveled here and will leave after one night."

If conditions permit, hiding among the natives is the safest, which is also the favorable condition given by the game. Yuki was certain of this after discovering that he did not have the 'Chosen Tower Explorer Halo'.

The population of the Dark Continent exceeds 100 million, so naturally they must take advantage of this condition and hide themselves in the dark.

Mana nodded, took out a pin and put it into Yuuki's chest pocket. Sure enough, the soul flame became much more normal. This was just a simple trick that could not deceive the devil's vision. Those who possessed extraordinary skills were either night watchmen or players.

Well, this rich young woman has a lot of strange props, and she’s pretty smart, so she’s quite useful.

Yuki showed a satisfied expression, then looked at the girl who had implanted the memory and turned her head back, her face full of distress.

"What's wrong? Don't worry about that Night Watchman. Extraordinary strength can't resist a Level 5 item."

"That's not it. It's about how our relationship is set in my memory." The girl's fair face gradually turned red. She held the hem of her skirt and said shyly, "Is it brother and sister? Or husband and wife?"

The red eyes narrowed slightly, and Yuki, dressed in a neat suit, sat upright. After several seconds, he finally uttered a few words from between his teeth.

"casual."

......

Enter the dungeon, explore the dungeon, and integrate into the dungeon.

As a veteran player, Yuuki completed the above steps in just a few hours. The town returned to its hustle and bustle, and he and the Gothic Lolita walked openly on the street without receiving any strange looks.

They are now the nobles of the Kingdom of France, as evidenced by the Soul Lamp worth at least two hundred gold pounds. They still use their real names, so that their companions can quickly come and join them after hearing them.

Because of the prompt, the player's extraordinary communication cannot be used, and Rihe is not here, so it is impossible to test whether the feature is effective. The technological level of the Dark Continent itself is too low, and the only means of long-distance communication is telegraph. The nearest city is one hundred kilometers away.

Yuki was not in a hurry to go there. One plan after another was being carried out in an orderly manner. For example, some experiments could only be done in this remote town.

Everything was going well, except for this little female ghost.

Husband and wife, you are so smart.

Yuki turned his head slightly and saw a girl in a black and white dress running around in the market, full of interest in the forest's specialties.

"Brother, look, this mushroom is bigger than my face."

"Hey, why is this wild boar so black and has six legs?"

"Brother, sir."

The vendor responded with a kind smile. Who wouldn't like a girl of noble birth, beautiful appearance, lively and clever? Because of the fixed origin, this could no longer be considered acting.

Damn it, she is obviously older than the senior.

Yuuki gritted his teeth slightly. He was used to the maturity of his senior and the calmness of Hayasaka. It was a bit strange to see a chattering little girl instead. However, he had to admit that this was not an act.

She has the appearance of a Lolita, the heart of a Lolita, but she is also a veteran gamer. What a strange combination.

Yuki was really dizzy from the noise, and reached out to grab Mana's collar: "Okay, don't forget the family motto of 'elegance', don't bring shame to the family."

"Ah? That family motto belongs to the Tohsaka family. What does it have to do with the Yoji family? By the way, do you know Rin?" The girl turned around with a suspicious look on her face.

I know her, but I don’t know her. Hey, that girl named Rin Toosaka who’s been playing with her legs for years has also become a player?

Yuki was stunned, and suddenly realized why he was not bored. As a fan of Moon, he was already very fond of Valhalla.

"If I say yes, then yes. Anyway, keep a low profile. We are not here for tourism."

"You were the one who said we should quietly bury our presence in the dungeon. Fine, I'll apply to be adopted into the Tohsaka family when I get back."

"Who wants you to be adopted?"

"But the Ryougi family doesn't have a motto of 'elegance'." Mana winked slyly and pounced to hug Yuuki's hand. "Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore. Let's go have dinner. My stomach is rumbling."

Monster-level players can survive in space without eating!

Yuki really wanted to say that, but he knew that Mana would definitely refute him with some strange reasons, so he waved his hand helplessly and let her go.

There was only one restaurant in Oak Town. Because Mana was a "minor", the owner moved a square table to the door to prevent those vulgar hunters from corrupting the child. This made Yuki, who wanted to get information from the hunters, very helpless, so he simply chose another angle.

The townspeople never sleep during the day and value time very much. The world is always cloudy and the word "sun" never appears anywhere.

The sky was gray, more like some kind of self-luminous ceiling. After the sudden brightness at noon, the sky was gradually darkening.

An important clue. You can take some time to go and take a look above the sea of ​​clouds.

Yuuki thought to himself, feeling the touch on his knee, he gathered his energy and looked at the girl in front of him.

"Why do you seem so happy?"

"I'm already very happy." Mana swung his legs, humming softly as he ate the fresh game. "Every dungeon is different. I can see many interesting stories and eat a lot of delicious food."

"Does that mean you're enjoying it?"

"Of course the copy is cruel, but the crueler it is, the more we have to find fun in it. We should try to find a place that can make us happy, so that we won't have a sad face every day." Mana picked up the tender and juicy black pork leg, stuffed it into his mouth, and showed an expression of enjoyment.
