Looking directly at the ancient gods for a whole year

Chapter 2411 The Prophet is Dead (Part 17)
Is this road to freedom a little too dark?

There was no free fall. At that moment, Fu Qian realized that he was still firmly on the ground, except that he had lost his sight.

Crystal was right; the moment she fully entered through the door, the change occurred instantly.

I didn't feel too uncomfortable, but everything was engulfed in darkness.

Given that the eye structure was in good condition, Fu Qian is more inclined to believe that he was in some kind of dark room.

Of course, it's not enough to easily associate it with the witch's "night without light".

The tendency to elevate things to a higher level simply because of a lack of light source is a serious waste of resources.

Not only that, the next moment Fu Qian didn't even try turning on the light, but instead wandered around in the dark a few steps by the feel of his feet.

This feeling is undoubtedly unpleasant. Don't forget that extraordinary perception is already in a state of isolation, and now you've directly lost sight as well.

But that's for ordinary people. Before paying, they enjoy the experience, and some even clench their fists and feel the emptiness inside.

Indeed, the enlightenment seemed to have been very successful. After passing through the Gate of Freedom, the goat-headed demon even gained true freedom and disappeared in an instant.

The amber given by Lord Crystal is still there, and there has been no strange reaction.

despair!
At one point, Fu Qian's free hand struck something, and he immediately stopped walking.

The feel is so-so, but you can still tell it's made of wood, even the shape—tap! tap!

Fu Qian pointed his finger out into the air and tapped twice more.

It really is a recliner.

At that moment, feeling a sense of wonder, Fu Qian immediately began to follow a pattern from his memory and continued on his way.

After turning ninety degrees again, his hand landed precisely on a wall.

Is it really room 802?
It matched his memory perfectly. He took a few more steps and sat down on the soft sofa.

Unfortunately, no prophet came forward to have a friendly conversation with them.

Yes, this seems to be the very place where the prophet once lived.

We stepped outside, but somehow ended up inside? The situation is becoming increasingly complicated.

……

Crystal and the others might be uneasy, wondering if the Gate of Freedom is really real.

But for prepayment, there has never been such a question.

Don't forget that Ji Feng, the master of the Hill of Unseen, was once his attending physician.

The final treatment plan last time was very clear: through talk therapy, Ji Feng would accept the premise that "the new era is just an illusion, and the essence of the Unseen Hill remains the same."

Therefore, those who are concerned about the past have never known there is a new era; they are only curious about what kind of scams are behind the door.

And what were the intentions of the person who wrote those words?

[Containment conditions met, ending the darkest night]

As it turns out, scams aren't all bad. Just as Fu Qian was sitting on the sofa deep in thought, a sound broke the silence.

……

Is it finally here?
The conditions for achieving containment for this mission were met with considerable difficulty.

In addition, the content also seems rather complicated.

End of the darkest night? It's quite fitting given the pitch blackness before us.

But Fu Qian wouldn't be so naive as to think that simply turning on a light bulb would solve the problem; it would probably require a radical, transformative approach.

Furthermore, this wasn't the point that Fu Qian was most interested in. What he was actually curious about was why the containment conditions would appear at this time.
It may seem like a trivial question, but we've actually figured out some of the warehouse's habits.

Some things may seem random, but they do follow certain patterns in essence, such as the numbering of the containment objects this time.

For those who are paying, there is a problem that has existed for a long time: what is the reason for the lack of prompts after entering a task?
Even though the warehouse had already brought people in, and every second counted, they were often given a period of free time to move around.

Is it due to some kind of restriction? Or is it to save effort?
Just as a task summary needs more exploration to become more detailed, a task also requires the administrator to touch certain elements in order to naturally bring up hints.
This explanation sounds reasonable, but it inevitably raises a question—what if it can't be reached?

For example, in the current situation, at first glance, the triggering conditions are not very demanding.

After all, this door is so conspicuous on the Hill of the Unseen, it's only natural for people to come in and take a look if they have the strength to do so.

But don't forget one small detail.

I've actually been here for a while, but the task notification just appeared.

Even though the mechanical ring couldn't be used for timing, Fu Mae was still very certain that exactly one minute had passed since then.

This overly regular timing makes it hard not to consider it as one of the triggering factors.

So the prompt appears after you enter the door and wait one minute? What's the point of that?
Surely it can't be that the warehouse calculations take time, right?

Or perhaps—the trigger condition is to stay in absolute darkness behind the door for a full minute?

Indeed, professionals always pay attention to details. Although the operation in the dark was impromptu, they still took it into consideration before proceeding.

But if that's really the reason, wouldn't it be a bit too harsh?

It's hard to imagine anyone having such refined tastes as me. Wouldn't that mean most people wouldn't even be able to trigger the conditions for completing the task?
Alternatively, another explanation could be introduced: there might be more than one trigger point, and the repository will flexibly calculate based on the administrator's actions...

"Let there be light."

While pondering, Fu Qian snapped his fingers, activating the remnants of the law.

A surge of light instantly swept away the darkness, illuminating what was before us.

……

I told you my eyes weren't blind, and it really is the Prophet's apartment.

The effect was outstanding, and Fu Qian was very satisfied at first, looking around.

The floor, the sofa, the recliner... it was indeed the place I had visited twice before.

Although the deck chair was empty, the lake-view window next to it reappeared.

That's right, not only is the prophet gone, but even the door on the wall is missing.

So what is this? Have we arrived at the Hill of the Unseen, where there is no light?

Before he could finish, he stood up and walked to the window, looking out through the not-so-clean glass.

It was indeed pitch black, and I felt like the only source of light in the world.

At the same time, it is clear that this room is not alone; it is still firmly embedded in a building.

Except for its dilapidated state, resembling the end of time, it is exactly the same place I came from.

Is it truly another Unseen Hill? Engulfed in eternal darkness?
Considering that it was already suspected to be a manifestation of Ji Feng's will, this nested doll-like structure is not too outlandish.

However, Fu Qian still thought of a small problem: no matter what, he was not the first to enter that door. Where were the other people who longed for freedom?
For example, the goat-headed demon who received enlightenment.
