Chapter 241 God of Machinery, Codename Zero

Qin Ze actually thought about some things. The level 1 of the maze.

He plays a person with bad odor. So is the person with bad odor really unstoppable in the early stage?

If the maze king controls all the maze resources...

Then can the maze king accumulate the resources of a certain level to the previous level?

Make a level that is completely unbreakable?

Qin Ze doesn't know this.

Because he is about to pass the level 1 without damage.

Qin Ze soon came to the palace.

Yes, in this city that is half modern and half ancient, the guards' equipment is getting more and more advanced, but there is a feudal system-the palace.

Qin Ze's process of breaking into the palace, it must be said, was very smooth.

The guards, the service personnel in the palace, were all incapable of action due to the stench.

Only the special guards, the guards who suddenly appeared near Qin Ze, could fight Qin Ze.

But the fourth wave of guards was still defeated by Qin Ze.

But Qin Ze also realized that it would be more difficult for him to deal with the fifth wave.

I'm afraid I have to use some trump cards.

Qin Ze's search for the important item was not tortuous.

Although he encountered the guards' obstruction, Qin Ze quickly found a place -

In a library in the palace, only there, the unique light green smell of the stench did not exist.

Qin Ze also quickly found the key thing.

He imagined that something that could remove the stench might be some special medicine or some special spring water.

Or... soap?

Or some armor that could cover the whole body?

But Qin Ze never thought that it was a bookmark hidden in a literary book in the library.

The bookmark said this.

"I will always love you, even if you are cursed by the fifth god, the Hateful Lord."

"But I will not hate you, my dear, I will find a way to remove the curse."

"Maybe others will find you difficult to approach and hate you, and such hatred will trigger your hatred."

"But please don't do this, my love, please don't hate them. Sooner or later, you will be loved by the whole world."

"You were once a hero who was willing to sacrifice your life to protect this city."

No signature.

But Qin Ze felt that this might be left by a woman to a man.

Qin Ze didn't expect that this maze actually had a plot.

He roughly deduced it.

"Somewhere in the old calendar world, there was a city earlier. The technology in the city was very strange. Some buildings and systems were very old, but the level of science did not seem to be as old as the system."

"In such a place, there was probably a couple. They were very loving."

"Until one day, the city seemed to be attacked... The man in the couple had to defend the city."

"And the one who attacked the city was the fifth god, the Lord of Hate."

"The man was affected by the curse of the Lord of Hate. He was supposed to be a hero guarding the city, but he became a monster hated and despised by everyone in the garbage dump."

"He was cursed, and from then on, no one in this world would like him."

"That stench, in addition to having a nauseating smell, also has the ability to make people hate it."

"I didn't expect that I would have an unexpected gain."

Qin Ze suddenly realized that the clown said that it was possible to get back what was lost and get extra gains.

"I have the luck of the old calendar master Ling Hansu. It seems that I don't need to worry about extra subsidies."

This kind of luck, even the world will be afraid of. It can be seen that as long as there is a probability of critical hit in the game, the user of luck will definitely be able to trigger a critical hit.

Qin Ze smiled.

But soon, his smile was restrained.

"Then why did this person appear in the maze?"

It is foreseeable that the city has become the territory of the fifth god, the Lord of Hate, in reality.

And the man he played may have begun to hate this world because of too much hatred.

Qin Ze remembered that there was a very detailed place where the maze was restored very well-

That is, the stench on his body is constantly increasing.

The more people are affected by the stench, the more people hate themselves, and the stronger the stench on their bodies.

And the stronger the stench, the stronger the effect of hatred, and those who hate themselves will hate more.

Thus, the vicious cycle will never be relieved.

"Could it be that the person I play, in order to find a way to eliminate hatred, chose to enter the maze and seek help from the seventh God?"

"No... that's not right. The gods are all in the same group. There may be conflicts of interest, but they all have common enemies. The seventh God will not offend the fifth God for a human defeated by the fifth God."

"Let me think about it... let me think about it. If this level 1 maze was not built because of this cursed man..."

Qin Ze's eyes widened slightly, and he suddenly understood.

"It's a woman."

"That woman is not simple either. As the wife of a man who can face the fifth God..."

"She herself has extraordinary abilities."

"When everyone hated her husband, she did not give up her husband."

"Instead, she left the city and looked for a way to eliminate the curse."

"But in the end, she entered the maze... and became material."

This is just a story.

Many of the contents were actually guessed by Qin Ze. They were not even guesses, they could only be said to be guesses.

But for a moment, Qin Ze suddenly felt a little sad.

If what I guess is true, combined with my situation in the maze...

Well this story is really sad.

The hero who defended the city was despised and hated by thousands of people.

He became disillusioned with the world and lived in a garbage dump.

But that city could not escape the fate of being ruled by the fifth god.

Everyone in that city will become slaves of the hated king.

And a woman, in order to prevent her husband from being cursed, in order to prove that he is worthy of being loved by the whole world...

Began a lonely adventure to find a way to resist the curse of the fifth god, the hated king.

But who would have thought that she would break into the maze of the seventh god.

In the end, it became the material of a maze.

Of this couple, one was ravaged by the fifth-level god, and the other was squeezed out of value by the seventh-level god.

Never see him again for life.

But this is not the saddest part. The saddest part is...

In fact, as long as a woman can express to a man that she is not affected by the curse, she will not hate the idea of ​​a man...

The curse is lifted.

Yes, women have worked hard to find a way to remove the curse, but they never thought that the way to remove the curse is to still love the man when he is hated and cursed.

She just needs to speak her thoughts to the man and let him hear...

The curse naturally disintegrated.

She could have done it, but at that time, fate had separated the two.

One is in the city and the other is in a garbage dump outside the city.

The people around him were constantly affected by the curse, and their hatred became stronger and stronger. As a result, the stench in the garbage dump became stronger and stronger.

The vicious cycle that happened to Qin Ze had actually happened somewhere before.

The woman didn't know how to remove the curse, so she began a journey to find the truth.

But from this, it gets further and further away from the truth.

Qin Ze sighed softly.

What was that woman's state of mind when she wrote this letter?

For me, this is lv1, the starting point for breaking into the maze.

But for that woman, maybe this is the end.

She keeps losing important things in the maze.

In the end, she was scared and despaired. The Labyrinth King's labyrinth was too scary.

She was afraid that in the end even her memory and obsession with her husband would be taken away by the Lord of the Labyrinth.

So I could only write down my thoughts and hide them in a book.

Maybe this is my husband’s favorite book?

She lost everything and ended up becoming a source of nourishment for the creation of the labyrinth.

And those who love their husbands are the only way to remove the curse——

Hidden in a bookmark.

The stench began to dissipate.

The light green aura no longer exists.

Qin Ze no longer smells bad.

He smiled silently and put the bookmark into his storage bag.

That was the storage bag that Jane gave him one by one.

This means that he wants to take this bookmark... away.

"I don't know if I have a chance to face the fifth god, the Lord of Hatred. After all... I may be like you, and my value will be drained by the Lord of the Labyrinth."

"But if I could, I would find the person affected by the stench."

Before that, he had to find a way to resist the stench.

The Machine Race can resist the stench, but will still be affected by the Abomination Curse.

It can be seen that the smell is just a symptom.

Of course, Qin Ze himself had to find a way to avoid being affected by the curse.

"A person who will love you no matter what is the way to remove the curse..."

"I also have such a person. If I am really qualified to face the fifth god, then maybe..."

"Am I qualified to fight alongside her?"

He missed Qiao Wei very much.

I don’t know what Qiao Wei is doing.

If Qin Ze wants to set a goal for his career journey in the old calendar——

The goal is probably to pursue Qiao Wei and decipher the world of the old calendar. The two overlap to some extent.

Now Qin Ze has a new goal, to defeat the Worthy God.

He deeply realized that the Old Calendar People were really toys in front of the God.

Ze collected her thoughts. He has more important things to do now.

…

…

Before the fifth wave of guards arrived, Qin Ze had already eliminated the curse, changed his clothes, and successfully arrived at a street outside the royal city.

In front of the mechanical race, which was almost indistinguishable from the local residents, Qin Ze suddenly stopped.

"Hello, should I call you...a spy from the Machine Tribe?"

Qin Ze whispered.

The middle-aged man wearing green and white clothes with a unique style in this city... suddenly stopped.

He didn't have a surprised expression, but a confused look on his face.

Because as a machine race, in order not to be discovered, he has adjusted the device that affects subtle changes in muscles due to emotions.

So when I heard this shocking news, my first reaction was to be a little confused, a feeling that I didn't seem to understand what you were talking about.

But Qin Ze can capture the voice of the heart.

"I don't need to introduce myself, right? Anyway, in your understanding, I am a challenger."

"A man who probably died in the maze."

"I can deal with the fifth wave of guards, but it will take some effort. Why don't you tell me some useful information before they come?"

"I have eliminated the curse and successfully found you. I believe that there will be no better challenger than me."

"Can you tell me why you mechanical people are in the maze?"

The reaction of the mechanical people is still confused.

But the inner voice is very straightforward.

[Impossible, absolutely impossible... Does that thing really exist? ]

[I just guessed before that there is something that can eliminate the curse, and it is likely in the palace. ]

[But even I can't find that thing. ]

[And everything is just speculation. It is not certain whether the Lord of the Maze really allows that thing to exist. ]

Qin Ze listened to this inner voice and seemed to have taken a step further and understood some characteristics of the maze.

If I were the Lord of the Maze, I would certainly not allow the bookmark that eliminates the curse to exist...

But the interesting thing is that the Lord of the Maze himself may not know how to eliminate the curse of hatred.

And he obtained the ability of "cost counter-repair" from the clown.

So the rules will only teleport you to the labyrinth area where counter-attacks are allowed.

In other words, everything you do is allowed by the rules.

And the rules are absolute, and the Labyrinth Lord himself cannot change the rules.

Qin Ze smiled and said:

"I did find a way to eliminate the curse. I was actually thinking that the person who wanted to eliminate the curse at the beginning..."

"Maybe she didn't come to find the Labyrinth Lord. Her hope shouldn't fall on the God of Duty. After being attacked by another God of Duty in her hometown..."

"Her hope may be placed on a certain foreign god."

"And she accidentally entered the labyrinth while looking for this foreign god."

"Then can I reasonably assume..."

"That foreign god is so brave that he set up his forbidden area in the labyrinth."

This time, the pretender of the mechanical race no longer had a blank expression, but looked at Qin Ze with a wary look.

Qin Ze said:

"What should I call that god? God of Machinery? God of Technology? God of Glorious Evolution? God of Steam and Power?"

The mechanical race was silent for a long time and said:

"You can call our king the God of Machinery, but he prefers to inherit the earliest name - codename zero. We are not the Outer Gods, but existences that are countless times earlier than the Outer Gods."

"We are witnesses of countless eras. We do not participate in your struggle."

"In the words of the king, every era has its heroes."

"No matter how the world becomes, we have experienced the worst world."

"The ratio of clear and turbid will always be unbalanced. We only witness, not participate."

When the mechanical race said these words, their expressions were somewhat sacred.

Especially when mentioning codename zero, the mechanical race's expression was full of awe.

Qin Ze remembered that the God of Competition seemed to have said something similar.

The mechanical race does not belong to the Outer Gods, but is a very special and very ancient existence.

Just like in a story, several forces are fighting each other, but there is also a force that does not participate in any battles.

Occasionally, they will go down to save some insignificant people.

Even if they do something, they will not attract the hatred of other forces.

Because they are powerful, but they do not fight.

Qin Ze said:

"So, you are unwilling to help me?"

The mechanical tribe shook their heads:

"If you want to see our king, I can introduce you, but you must first prove that you have the ability to escape from the maze."

"When you have made eighteen correct choices, you will meet us."

Qin Ze understood that this is a pre-task.

You have to come back alive from the maze to be qualified to meet the mechanical tribe.

As for why No. 4 does not need to do this?

Because No. 4 itself has a mechanical physique, and has the help of the God of Competition.

"Will you really meet No. 4 in this maze?"
