Chapter 376 A World Where Gods Are Dead

The soul finished speaking intermittently and then disappeared.

Mu You frowned and looked at the place where the soul disappeared.

This person left him such a message before he died for some unknown reason.

However, since he already knew about this, he had to go and see whether it was a trap or not.

After cleaning up the battlefield, Mu You went to several other areas, but found that the children who were originally imprisoned in these areas had disappeared. Judging from the traces on the ground, they probably took the opportunity to escape when the Shadow God broke out before.

After a circle, there were no living people in this underground factory except the three of them.

Then Mu You and Lin Xue returned to the platform above the Gu Pool, and found the floor tile that the ghost mentioned on the north side of the platform.

"Dong Dong..."

Mu You leaned over and knocked on the brick, and the sound coming from it was indeed different from the other bricks around.

Use the floating spell to move the brick away, and there is a hollow grid below, which contains a knob mechanism.

Turning the knob, a series of "clicking" sounds suddenly came from the bottom of the grid, and the bricks at the bottom shrank inward layer by layer, soon revealing a chimney-like passage that led directly to the ground more than ten meters deep. Looking down, it was pitch black.

Mu You switched to the robot skin and activated the sand spider nest.

Dense sand spiders swarmed into the passage, climbed all the way down, and soon reached the bottom.

From the perspective of the sand spiders, Mu You saw that there seemed to be something like a notebook underneath, tightly wrapped in a transparent insect-proof bag.

Ten seconds later, the sand spiders gathered in groups and crawled back to the ground with the thick notebook.

Mu You took the notebook and took it out to check it.

The title on the cover of the notebook: "Shadow Velvet Ball Cultivation Diary".

He opened it and quickly flipped through a few pages. It was really like the name, and it recorded the growth and changes of the shadow velvet balls at various stages.

According to the description at the bottom of each page, this log is based on a yearly cycle, and is recorded once a year. In the upper right corner of each page, there is a hand-drawn picture that depicts the real-time appearance of the shadow ball at that time.

Mu You quickly flipped through it and saw that the shadow ball was indeed growing up year by year. Its appearance gradually changed from the initial cute fur ball to a ferocious and ugly giant monster.

Of course, as its appearance became uglier, its level and ability would also be improved step by step.

From the description in the notes, after the first few years of cultivation and entering the growth period, the shadow ball will have preliminary combat capabilities, and every few years, it will make a certain ability evolve or a new ability appear.

According to the text, once the cultivation exceeds 50 years, the shadow ball will enter the mature stage and no longer need to look for shadows to feed it, because it will have the ability to automatically hunt at that time, and even if you want to stop it from growing, you can't stop it.

It was from this time that the man behind the scenes realized that he had lost control of the Shadow Ball, and began a long confrontation with the Shadow God...

Of course, this was not a problem for Mu You, as he had not planned to feed the Shadow Ball for a long time.

After it had eaten the hundreds of shadows it had swallowed before, Mu You would stop feeding it and would not let it grow to the stage where it could find food on its own.

What's more, Mu You had a perfect Shadow Ghost who could completely restrain the Shadow Ball. As the host of the Shadow Ball, with the Shadow Ghost in the Box and the existence of Mianmian, it could be said that the conditions for controlling the Shadow God that the man behind the scenes had pursued for a lifetime had already gathered around him. Even if the Shadow Ball really grew up, there would be no problem of being unable to suppress it.

Mu You continued to flip through the pages.

It was not until the last hundred pages that some diary-like text descriptions finally began to appear in the log.

"In the past year, whenever Shadow God entered deep sleep, I was occasionally able to connect to its perspective. Shadow God would recall some scenes he had experienced in his dreams. It was through these scenes that I learned a lot about the 'God Clan'..."

"The 'God Clan' is a complete and highly developed civilization. Every 'God' is as tall as a giant, so they also call themselves the 'Giant Clan'... Of course, not all giants have 'divine power'. Similar to the structure of ordinary races, the vast majority of people in the God Clan are actually just ordinary giant humanoid creatures, and the remaining few giants with 'divine power' have infinitely raised the upper limit of this race. Using various divine powers, they can do many things that ordinary people cannot do. It is a matter of imagination, which also makes the gods look like a group of high and mighty gods to ordinary creatures..."

"...I was originally immersed in using the perspective of the shadow god to visit the world of gods, but soon, I discovered a fact that made me despair and horrified...Originally, the Star Spirit Realm was governed and protected by the gods, and each race had its own gods to worship. Everything was in order, and all races prospered together, and all things were peaceful. There were very few disputes. At that time, the Star Spirit Realm was much more prosperous and beautiful than it is now, and the area was much larger than it is now, with abundant resources and many species, like a real paradise...But since a certain day tens of thousands of years ago, the gods suddenly disappeared, and the entire God Clan seemed to have encountered some kind of catastrophe. Since then, no gods have appeared alive..."

"... Shadow God is the last living god, or rather, Shadow God's body has also died in the catastrophe. It is only because of Shadow God's special nature that he survived the crisis in a special state of suspended animation by relying on his shadow, and escaped to the Star Spirit Realm in the form of a shadow ball, and then waited for resurrection after a long time in a parasitic way..."

"... What puzzles me is that the history of the Star Spirit Realm that I know is pitifully short. All records of human writing and language can only be traced back to about two thousand years ago. Even through those ancient tombs and the skeletons of immortal creatures, their maximum existence time is only more than 3,800 years... So from the extinction of the gods to the tens of thousands of years when the existing civilization was born, has the Star Spirit Realm always been blank?"

Several consecutive pages describe some extremely informative content.

Mu You frowned, the Protoss was actually exterminated?

From the strength of Shadow God, one can imagine how terrifying the complete Protoss is, and such a race was actually exterminated. What kind of existence should have exterminated them?

Mu You hurriedly continued to search. In the following logs, some additional content would appear from time to time, but they were only a few words, describing one or several dream scenes, which looked quite chaotic, and two words were mentioned many times: Great Disaster and Minor Disaster.

Connecting these fragmented information, it seems that every four thousand years or so, a "Great Disaster" will occur in the Star Spirit World. All creatures will suffer a catastrophe in the Great Disaster, and the scope of the Star Spirit World will become smaller after the Great Disaster.

As for what the "Minor Disaster" is, there is no specific description, only a mention of "related to the Fool".

These chaotic descriptions lasted for dozens of pages, which shows that the mental state of the person behind the scenes who wrote this log was worrying during this period.

It was not until the last page that Mu You finally saw a long and logically complete additional text.

"We live in a world where the gods are dead. There is no god to control us, no god to take care of us. We are left to fend for ourselves. Every four thousand years, the Star Spirit World will usher in a great disaster, which will destroy everything and cleanse everything. Now, there are only a hundred years left before the next great disaster... In a hundred years, the world will usher in the end... I must control the power of the Shadow God as soon as possible to escape the disaster..."

"However, recently, the Shadow God's dreams have become more and more unstable. I understand that it will wake up in the near future, and then its power will completely suppress me, its master, and devour me... Before that, I need to find 14, or create a new perfect work, it is possible to suppress it..."

"If anyone finds this diary, it means that I have failed, and it is very likely that I have been swallowed by the Shadow God..."

"Then, please remember this place: Chuangjie Mountain."

"In a hundred years, the world will come to an end, and everything will be destroyed, and Chuangjie Mountain is the only place that can change everything."

"To be honest, I don't know where this place is, but according to the information I have learned so far, as long as I find this place, there are infinite possibilities..."

The text stopped here, and Mu You subconsciously turned it back again, and the last half page was blank.

But when he turned it over, a piece of paper fell out of the cover of the book and fell to the ground.

Mu You picked it up and saw a hand-painted pattern on the paper, depicting a mountain, hidden in the mist, not really visible, and only a barely recognizable outline.

"Is this Chuangjie Mountain?"

Mu You was dumbfounded. He thought the other party had left a map or something at the end, but it turned out to be just a simple drawing, and the drawing was too TM abstract, how could he find it?

Shaking his head, Mu You looked back at the log on the previous page.

The various fragmentary information in this log actually said three things in summary.

First, the Protoss had been exterminated for some reason a long time ago.

Second, a great disaster will occur every four thousand years in the Star Spirit World, and the great disaster will destroy everything. Now there are only a hundred years left before the next great disaster.

Third, an important place called "Creation Mountain" was mentioned. It seems that as long as this place is found, there is a chance to prevent the occurrence of the great disaster.

In addition, there is actually a hidden hint in the message left by the other party: those who control the power of God can avoid the great disaster. The other party is anxious to control the Shadow God for this.

"Boom..."

When Mu You was thinking, there was a violent tremor on the ground under his feet.

The entire underground factory was shaking, and countless gravel and dust fell from the sky. Mu You looked up and saw that a large number of cracks had appeared on the ceiling, and they were expanding rapidly.

"It's going to collapse here!" Mu You said.

"Trap?" Lin Xue subconsciously looked at the book in Mu You's hand. As soon as they took out the book, this change occurred. It was hard not to think that the person behind the scenes had prepared a trick for them.

"That's not the case..."

Mu You shook his head: "It's impossible to kill us with a landslide of this magnitude, not to mention that he didn't have time to arrange it... It should have been arranged in advance. As long as the journal he hid was taken away, this place would automatically collapse and bury all the sins of the Undead Society."

The vibration was still intensifying, and the density of the falling rocks above their heads increased rapidly.

The two of them didn't have time to talk nonsense, and hurriedly set up teleportation arrays on the ground and teleported back to Dawn City.

"Lord!"

Dawn City was completely quiet at this time, with only the Shadow Wolf patrolling near the gate of the main castle with a bow and arrow.

"Is there anyone coming up?" Mu You asked her.

After the Octopus King was killed and all the players were wiped out, Dawn City was now completely empty. It was at its weakest moment, and it would be very troublesome for someone to attack at this time.

"No."

Shadow Wolf shook his head. The two of them had left in less than two hours. Even if there was someone nearby who really coveted Dawn City, the reaction would not have been that fast.

However, for the sake of safety, Mu You immediately took action and let in two million people from the players who applied to enter the city, filling the gap in the number of residents and providing some defensive strength to Dawn City.

A large number of players suddenly appeared in Dawn City and ran around in the city, immediately bringing a lot of life to the dead Dawn City.

Many enthusiastic players also teleported to the gate of the castle castle and tried to interact with Muyou. The gate of the castle castle instantly turned into a vegetable market, and all kinds of chattering questions were heard, making him noisy.

After sending away these players, Mu You and Lin Xue did not stay long. They came through the space crack, and the crack was time-limited and would only be open for about seven hours. Now four hours have passed.

If they don't go back before the rift closes, they will be left in the Star Spirit Realm. People who come through the rift will not have their lifespan deducted here, but they will be counted as people in the Star Spirit Realm after that, and they will not want to go back. But it's difficult. If you go back through the door, your life will be shortened on the earth.

The only way is to wait for half a year for the space crack to open again, so that they can return to Earth without any sequelae.

And this is impossible. Their home and roots are on the earth, and it is impossible for them to leave for half a year.

However, we can take advantage of this opportunity to move between the two worlds at will to transfer some creatures from the other side of the earth.

Such as the two-headed dragon and the little spider.

Both of these are pets that need to be upgraded through frequent battles. Although they have the light of evolution if they stay on the earth, it is difficult for pets with high growth rates like them to evolve further. If they stay on the earth, their improvement will be slower. It's better to transfer to the star spirit world, where you can usually follow him to fight monsters and level up. Besides, Xiaoya's light of evolution can also be used in the game.

The two quickly returned to the crack, moved the pets, and returned to Tokyo.

Before leaving, Mu You sealed the dry well that concealed the cracks in space with dust, and re-covered the stone slab above. This thing will not be opened again until half a year later, and after the undead will be eliminated, those who know the existence of this place will There should be only two of them left, and he doesn't plan to tell anyone yet, maybe it can be used in the future.

Back in Tokyo, it's almost early morning.

Lin Xue took the little girl and teleported back to the country first, while Mu You had to go back to join the exchange group.

I took out the satellite phone from the space and turned it on. Sure enough, there were many missed messages, all from the Blood Emperor and others.

He had been missing for four or five hours and had not participated in last night's operation at all. At this moment, a group of people were busy looking for him.

Mu You hurriedly replied to them and explained the situation last night. His statement was that after the riot last night, he found a relatively weak human-shaped shadow ghost in Qingmu District. Because the mobile phone signal was blocked, he could only Tracking alone, it finally took some effort to eliminate the opponent.

The human figure he was referring to was naturally the little girl from last night. The little girl killed someone before she left. A quick check revealed that there was something wrong, which could completely support his words.

Overall, their mission was a complete success. Of course, the Blood Emperor and Director Wang didn't pursue anything after hearing this. They just scolded him a few times and told him not to act alone next time, and then let the matter go.

Mu You then rushed back to the guest house to join everyone, and there were still some handover matters with Japan.

In Tokyo, last night's large outbreak of shadow ghosts caused a lot of damage, but most of it was economic. In terms of personnel, there were not many casualties because of the early warning.

Those ordinary shadow ghosts had a single action mode. After the initial chaos, Japanese civilian experts were also forced to join the war, and then they were gradually suppressed one by one.

But even so, this incident still caused quite a stir in Japan. As the truth gradually emerged on the Internet afterwards, public opinion was in an uproar. Various duties and abuses continued to erupt, leaving a group of people in the Defense Society very busy...

Mu You and the others had nothing to do with this aspect. After hastily handing over the procedures, the exchange group boarded the plane back home.
