Chapter 505: Escape from the Underworld

Chapter 505: Escape from the Underworld
"Master of the Heavenly Choir?!"

Xia Shou always felt that this was an abnormal phenomenon. If there really was a so-called master, it might be the same as Yuezhuo Village. The creator of Yuezhuo Village was Cangyue, so the creator of the Heavenly Choir might also be a god.

But gods will not personally get involved in human affairs. So far, even the Control Bureau has no record of gods being directly involved in human events, even human-gods who are close to humans.

They represent authority and concepts, but have no stance. All their will is expressed through mortals' worship and pursuit of their authority and power, but they are not involved themselves. That is why mortals call those above their names agents.

Someone who acts on behalf of the gods.

"The owner of the Heavenly Choir is the agent of the Magic Poetry, the Wandering Bard." Dorian Gray was silent for a moment, looked at the strange human instruments around him, and then said, "But the Heavenly Choir was built for a new agent under the command of Thirsty Fang."

Xia Shou stood there in a daze.

The magic poem... the one he saw when he turned around before. According to the description, the name of this god was among the guesses given by the Control Bureau.

“The Thirst Fang, what it represents is very abstract and broad, and it is difficult to describe, but it is deeply related to indulgence and abstinence.

The most accurate summary at present is the gradually expanding expectations in the process of pursuing the satisfaction of desires...but it is not the expectation itself, but the acceleration of the expansion of expectations.

Yama was once the agent of Thirst Fang. In the era dominated by King Yama, he created the Avici Hell and found a gap between life and death using the secret method of body replacement.

For those who enter it, the sentence is endless, but the suffering is endable.

Yama, the King of Hell, was promoted to the agent of Thirst Fang in that era by relying on the Avici Hell, while the Wandering Bard helped another named person to rebel against this agent.

The Heaven Choir exists to replace the hell."

Having said this, there is a noticeable pause in Dorian Gray's narration.

Xia Shou could see that she didn't pause because she had nothing to say, but rather was organizing her words and thinking about what to say.

Then, Dorian Gray suddenly changed the subject and mentioned another god.

“Magic Poetry, the god in charge of narrative, also represents the god of information transmission media, words written on paper, epics on stone tablets, codes in USB drives, and information on forums.

According to legend, the owner of Paper Curtain Mountain has recorded all the information generated in time and space on paper and stored there, representing a god "influenced by narrative". Novels and poems are the most typical representatives.

Many people confuse His authority with the horse in the woods, but the horse in the woods is a bystander, creating the possibility of a story, while movies and novels are carriers that focus on creation and observation.

The magic poem, on the other hand, affects the reader in turn.

There is even a bit of hostility between the two, because "Horse in the Forest" focuses on possibilities, and the completeness of the narrative itself limits the possibilities, just like a book. Although you have only read the first page, the ending is on the last page and cannot be changed no matter how many pages you turn.

But this heavenly choir has nothing to do with the horses in the forest. It is managed by the wandering bards, who are one of the agents of magic poetry and are in charge of the poems.

The choir has two functions: singing psalms to influence the listeners, while the performers long for liberation like the evil spirits in hell.

This place exists for both the 'desires' of the Magic Poet and the Thirstfang."

Xia Shou nodded slowly: "I understand, but now I want to know how to escape from the underworld?"

"The underworld itself no longer exists. It was destroyed by the wandering bards long ago. The underworld I went to last time, which is where you are now, is the incomplete part of the underworld, and it is also the part that the wandering bards did not completely destroy.

Of course, it is also the most important part of the Avici Hell in the original underworld.

The current underworld itself has an exit, which is equivalent to a crack on a sealed iron ball. However, the road leading to the crack is too difficult for us ants, so we want to escape from other cracks.

I have two approaches, the first is to create more cracks.

The second is to find other cracks.”

Xia Shou cheered up and thought that they were finally getting to the point. Dorian Gray had talked about so many irrelevant topics, and now he was finally going to talk about how to escape from the underworld.

“The first approach is to create more cracks for us to choose from.

Let the wandering poet find it, and He will naturally destroy the underworld. Before it is destroyed but not yet destroyed, there is a chance to escape, just like an ant trapped in a sealed iron ball. When the iron ball is crushed, it can crawl out through the gap. But if the ant does not get out until the iron ball is crushed into powder, then naturally it will not survive.

Of course, not everyone can contact the Wandering Bard. Not only must one be a believer of the Magic Poetry, but his power must also be as close to that of the Named One as possible.

But if one has known strength, there is no need to worry about the underworld that has become like that, and even Meng Po would not have locked up such a person in the first place.

So you can only take the second option."

Dorian Gray paused, took a deep breath, and said solemnly:

"Don't write down what I'm going to say next on paper, or in any other way on any medium. It's best not to tell anyone else. Do you understand?"

"I see."

"Although the magic poem is the master of Paper Mantle Mountain, and Paper Mantle Mountain owns all the narratives that have appeared, there are still exceptions. Some narratives are not in Paper Mantle Mountain. Although the name of the story has been changing, the content has never changed.

According to the records of the Control Bureau, the name of that series of books is - "The Season of Falling Stars."

When he heard the name, Xia Shou got goosebumps.

Before Dorian Gray said the title of the book, he actually had a subtle premonition that such a coincidence would actually happen.

This reminded Xia Shou of what Jin Fenglong had once said to him - let the waves assemble all the parts of a Swiss watch into a complete watch.

"In the past, four copies of this book were found, also known as the Four Volumes of the Heavenly Book. One of these volumes is in the underworld! You can walk out of the book!"

……

Ten minutes later, Dorian Gray had said all that there was to say.

Xia Shou was extremely shocked by this.

"How do you know so much?" Xia Shou widened his eyes and stared at the other person in disbelief.

He knew that Dorian Gray knew that he was a time traveler. After all, she also knew about the Death Notes, and the pocket watch was hers, so it was reasonable for her to know these things.

But why did she know so much about his original world!

"Could it be... a fellow villager?!"

"My fellow countryman, who is your fellow countryman? Ah, it's good to be young." Dorian Gray smiled. "How old are you?"

Xia Shou frowned slightly: "Why do you suddenly ask this?"

"As for the plot of the book, let's see if there are any loopholes in the plan I just told you about," said Dorian Gray.

This reason was so reasonable that Xia Shou had no way to refute it, but he always felt that the other party was not asking about his age just to fill in the gaps.

"Just entered college." Xia Shou replied.

“Well, that’s a good age. You can come to see me next time when you are free, but remember to do it when the choir doesn’t have any major performances.

Since you can find this place, you must have friends who are audience members, right? You can ask your friends about the performance schedule. "

Xia Shou nodded.

The time is almost up. Although there are many things that can be done in the heavenly choir, his real body is sleeping in the underworld, and any accident may happen.

Now that you know how to be saved, get out now.
