Chapter 335 The King in Yellow Reigns Over the World

Under the shining of the twin stars, a figure in yellow clothes appeared in the twisted door. The surrounding dolls raised their arms and shouted, and the heroine's expression also became frightened. At this moment, as if in a voice-over, a majestic The sacred singing voice rises from outside the stage——

"The Lord of Feasts hunts the stars,

"Covering the sky and blocking out the sun,

"The bones of the earth god trembled and trembled,

“The stars stand still.

"But all living beings are as silent as ice at this moment.

“For they saw the king,

"Appearing with its great power,

"The King in Yellow is here to rule."

The voice-over paused, and the figure in yellow held out the golden cup in his hand, emitting an outstanding sound that directly touched the soul.

It was neither a male voice nor a female voice; neither an aria nor a recitative; neither a treble nor a bass; neither a coloratura nor a frivolity...

It’s hard to describe with sound, because it seems to appear directly in the hearts of the audience.

"The promised day has arrived, and my bride stepped onto the stage and presented me with a gorgeous ceremony as promised!"

The twisted puppets on the stage became more and more crazy, and they danced their limbs crazily. By this time, even the dullest priests had realized that something was wrong. However, when they tried to stop this "coming of the evil god" ceremony, It's already too late.

The cobwebs unknowingly covered the theater. While subconsciously following the etiquette of watching the play, the audience also abided by the rules hidden in the play.

At this moment, no one can stop this play from playing its final chapter!

The singing that penetrated into their ears, as if born from the depths of their souls, wrapped their brains like smooth tentacles. In the G·I force field that was unknowingly integrated, madness and chaos began to spread.

Everyone has only one strand, but when these strands are collected and focused on one person, then he will undoubtedly have to resist the mental impact of hundreds or thousands of colleagues with the power of one person.

A complete collapse only takes an instant, and with the collapse of one person, everyone's spirits are like falling dominoes, and it is difficult to recover.

At this moment, the inside and outside of the play were completely synchronized, and the doomsday scene that was limited to the play was also projected into the theater.

The two stars that were originally just lights rose into the sky, and distortion and madness also came from the stage to the audience. The heroine took the golden cup handed by the king in yellow with both hands, and held it up with an expression of mercy like a virgin. As the golden cup tilted, a drop of golden wine fell from the cup, dyeing it scarlet the moment it fell.

The curtain closed with a bang, and there was no one alive in the theater troupe.

No, no more humanoid things!

…

"Fuck you!" Feng Xue broke away from the feeling that was not a dream, and the first thing he did was to shout "Fuck you". Without him, he found that he had really made something extraordinary happen.

If you want to ask how outrageous it is...

For the first time in history, his golden finger popped up a window for him after he accidentally fell into a strange dream——

[You have obtained the character card [King in Yellow]. 】

Although it is difficult to say whether this pop-up window is because he accidentally entered Qimeng this time, or simply because he unlocked the character card rules that come with the quick mode, but this name alone is enough to make Feng Xue feel unreasonable. Got it!

"The Bride of the King in Yellow" is a musical he created by combining scripts such as "The Phantom of the Opera", "The Magic Flute" and "The King in Yellow". Although it cannot be said that it does not have an artistic component, the performance part of the puppets is excluded. , which is just barely enough to be on Broadway.

But apart from the script, the play itself is also a ritual structure for killing people.

To break it down, the entire ceremony can be divided into three parts.

The first part is the actors on the stage. Because each actor (puppet) performs according to the script, it can be regarded as a standard routine.

The second part is the [rules] set by Feng Xue. Through the harmless dispersion of the G·I force field, part of the ritual is hidden in the rules.

The third part is the audience off the stage. As a matter of movie/drama etiquette, when watching a stage play, the audience will abide by a series of rules without resistance such as no making noise, no video recording, muting mobile phones, no use of luminous objects, etc. .

And this kind of rule-abiding behavior itself conforms to the basic norms of "ritual", that is, "standardized processes that follow a specific order", and Feng Xue can also rely on the "emotional resonance of the audience", which is a characteristic that a stage script should have. , gather everyone's negative emotions at one point, and then spread along the spiritual network, completing the pollution and destruction of the spiritual level.

But what Feng Xue didn't expect was that Shinra's "faith" perception was so strong that at the end of the ceremony, everyone thought it was a ceremony of the arrival of an evil god.

As a result, what was originally a purely spiritual killing turned into a real divine ritual in the unified perception of thousands of viewers.

However, there are actually not many things in this world that can be defined as gods.

For example, the Creator is the classic human god.

Another example is that the kings of the dreamland are all condensed from the beliefs, culture, cognition and many other emotions of intelligent creatures. There are even existences such as the patron saints and group will of various races and civilizations.

But the problem is exactly here——

Among these countless existences, there is no [King in Yellow].

Therefore, these cognitions formed an empty shell, which is the character card named [King in Yellow] in front of him.

"But it's also thanks to the fact that I wrote the King in Yellow for the sake of playing with the idea of ​​playing with the stalk. If I wrote a god of wine according to the gods of this world, maybe it would be the descent of the god of wine!"

Feng Xue shook his head when he thought of this, because in the eyes of the audience, this is the advent of the evil god, so the gods created may also have some evil god attributes. If it is not necessary, it is better not to use this big move casually.

Silently sealing up his highest achievement in the script, Feng Xue gradually came back to his senses and began to sort out the gains of this time.

Not to mention the role card of [King in Yellow], Feng Xue plans to try this role card after figuring out the routine of this new gameplay.

The second is the proficiency of various skills. The puppetry is naturally practiced to the master level, and the practical experience of the puppeteer who makes puppets has also been brushed up. In addition, the skills with higher degree of relevance such as stage plays and prop preparation are basically retained.

If you want to say what you forgot...

"I seem to have forgotten how to brew Chiron..."

Feng Xue grinned, but then found that he didn't seem to have forgotten? Well, it's probably that although I forgot the specific parameters, I still have the feeling of how grapes should grow and to what extent the wine should be fermented?

"Fuck, is this considered causality? The causality of winemaking is okay..."

Feng Xue was amused by his first causal ability, but then he suddenly realized that this didn't seem to be his first causal ability, because before this, he had a technique that he remembered the feeling but forgot the specific skills -

"Alchemy..."

"Good guy, the causality is actually me?"
