Becoming God starting with the word game in Lord of Mysteries

Chapter 109 The Echoes of Advancing to Hermitage and the True Creator.

As the fragrance of night-blooming jasmine filled his nostrils, Li Qianyi opened his eyes and found himself back in the "gravekeeper's" little cabin, in his own private bedroom.

However, before Li Qianyi could do anything else, he first looked at the virtual panel in front of him.

The Call of the Lord of Calamity

[Mission Description: Due to the interference of the "Fallen Mother Goddess" and the "Primordial God," unknown anomalies have occurred in the Mirror Maze. If you wish to successfully obtain the "Calamity Overlord's" arrangements within it, you must resolve these anomalies.]

[Quest Reward: Sunset's Mark (Orange - Hero) *1]

"As expected, this mirror is the key to synthesizing 'Elegy of the Setting Sun'."

However, according to the information provided, the Mirror Maze is only open after midnight and cannot be entered at present.

"I hope everything goes smoothly later."

When Li Qianyi walked out of the bedroom.

A tall man with short, dark brown hair was kneeling beneath the emblem of "Eternal Darkness," seemingly praying or perhaps confessing.

Jack Belmont.

Li Qianyi's good friend in Anning Town, and the guide chosen by Mr. Fool.

They were already very familiar with each other in the game.

However, Li Qianyi did not actually exchange a single word with Jack Belmont.

He felt even more guilty, especially since he possessed the extraordinary characteristics of the other woman's girlfriend.

However, he wasn't a talkative person and didn't want to bother the other person at this time.

He can no longer enter the mirror maze.

Li Qianyi planned to take advantage of this time to see if he could perform a ritual to "send off" the lingering spirits of the dead.

"That place holds a fragment of a miracle."

Just then, two suitcases were suddenly placed on the table, and a deep, resonant voice rang out.

"The ingredients on the left are auxiliary materials for the hermit potion that 'The Wave Saint' Graham gave me."

"I just checked, but I can't see anything unusual. However, they certainly wouldn't try to turn me against them for no reason."

"To be on the safe side, it's best not to use their products."

"This is what the 'Sanctuary' gave me when I entered this place."

At this point, Jack paused, his brown eyes revealing no emotion, and said, "It's also an auxiliary ingredient for the Hermit's Potion."

When Li Qianyi heard Jack's words, he was stunned for a moment, but when he realized what he had said, he was shocked.

Good heavens, the Sage of Waves wants to turn Jack Belmont, his mentor, against him.

Although the effect wasn't very good.

However, Li Qianyi also noticed the change in Jack's emotions and guessed that the guy seemed to be in some kind of predicament.

"Too."

Li Qianyi pondered, "Since the Church of the Fools foresaw that I would possess it, then did Jack suspect that his fate was also already in the sights of the Great Beings?"

He wasn't a mind reader for Jack, but he could still offer some explanation on this matter.

Li Qianyi paused, then said, "Even for Mr. Fool, he can only anchor a future to a certain extent."

"But how things will unfold, and what twists and turns will occur along the way."

"Even a great being like him could not completely control it."

This is both the chaotic nature of fate and...

""

"You are a believer he values, and he wouldn't try to fool your feelings in this way."

As a single man, Li Qianyi didn't really know how to comfort the other person.

The believer who believed that "a primordial God died and was resurrected" was beyond the scope of his abilities.

I can only offer an explanation, hoping he won't get stuck on something and do anything that's detrimental to himself or others.

"I know," Jack Belmont sighed. "This is a mission I accepted willingly; no one forced me to accept it."

"only..

'

But the illusion of life and death is not as painful as the real separation of life and death.

This is not only because of human nature, but also because God controls the vast ocean of the collective unconscious.

With his keen insight into people's minds, it's all too easy for him to target their inner weaknesses and soft spots.

"Thank you for your understanding anyway." Jack shook his head helplessly. "This was also Bellia's own last wish."

"For her, this might not be a bad thing."

Li Qianyi nodded and said no more.

He brought the suitcase given to him by the Church of Fools into the bedroom, and then took out the Hermit Extraordinary Attribute from Sister Belia Eliza of the Shadows.

Then he opened the suitcase and put the auxiliary materials into the beaker one by one.

One of the tubes contained bright red blood, as if it had just been drawn from a human body.

A rather strange-looking sheep's tail; it's the tail of the Blood-Eyed Black Goat.

There was also a dark, gritty fragment.

"What is this?"

When Li Qianyi opened the information entry, he almost couldn't hold his breath.

[Fragments of the bell pillar from the time when "Ammon the Blasphemer rang the bell for the Fool"]

The Fool's Church knows how to get anything.

"This can already be considered a sacred relic, right?"

How can it not be considered blasphemy to desecrate the items of the Church of the Fools?

Li Qianyi's lips twitched, and he threw it into the crucible, finally adding the extraordinary characteristics of the "Hermit" along with it.

The shadow entered the liquid and instantly enveloped the other auxiliary materials.

Soon, a cup of grayish-black liquid appeared in the crucible, and Li Qianyi poured it into a prepared transparent glass.

He could vaguely see faces in the grayish-black liquid.

Li Qianyi glanced at the information on the panel.

You have obtained the "Hermit" potion.

[Hermit's Potion: A grayish-black liquid that seems to reflect the faces of its inhabitants]

[Note: This level of potion is practically indistinguishable from poison; you don't know whether it's a blessing or a curse.]

Li Qianyi remained silent for a few seconds, then gulped down the potion.

Perhaps it was because he had been playing the role of a hermit for a long time, or perhaps it was due to the blessing of the "Key to the Veil of Shadows" itself.

Aside from the initial coldness, bitterness, and stinging sensation in the throat.

New power gradually emerged within his body.

Unlike when he used the "Key to the Curtain of Shadows," his mind now possesses more complex knowledge and greater abilities.

At the same time, a series of messages appeared on the panel in front of him.

You have taken the Hermit's Potion.

"The Lost Lord Dongjun" has been promoted to Sequence 7 Hermit.

Your sanity +15, health +15, armor +10, attack power +15

Current sanity level: 51

Current Armor Value: 19

Current Health: 50

Attack power: 15~19

[You possess special abilities: Summoning Shadows (blue), Manipulating Shadows (blue), Shadow Shaping]

(Blue), Shadow Curse (Green)

You have digested the Hermit's Potion.

Your health +5, your sanity +5, armor +2, attack power +2.

"Just as I expected."

Li Qianyi looked at the prompts and saw the talisman that contained "Key to the Curtain of Shadows" and "Eternal Darkness".

He began playing the role of a hermit very early on.

The moment he drank the potion, he experienced the unique sensation that followed when the potion was fully digested.

"If I could obtain the 'Rose Bishop's' potion, I could advance in rank right now."

Li Qianyi shook his head. Just then, some more information popped up.

You seem to have a deeper understanding of "shadows".

[You are carrying the fourth fragment of the Blasphemous Slate]

[You are detected carrying a blasphemous cross that emits a faint glow]

[You have received a special clue: the echo of the true creator.]

When your resonance with the "Key to the Shadow Veil" reaches 100%, you can trigger the special ability "Echo of the True Creator".
