Becoming God starting with the word game in Lord of Mysteries

"And there's another problem here."

Li Qianyi frowned slightly. "I am an ordinary person now, but I know a lot about the great beings."

Why didn't I die suddenly? Or become one of my former kin?

"Is it because of the Lord of Mysteries' protection? Or is it because the game and reality are dimensionally separate, and therefore cannot affect me for the time being?"

Just then, Li Qianyi heard the sirens of police cars.

"Another police car."

Li Qianyi looked out the window. There was a snack street right outside his dormitory, where students often ate.

However, the area around the university town has been quite unsettled in recent days, with several home invasion murders occurring.

All the victims lost their heads, their deaths were gruesome, causing widespread panic among nearby students and residents.

"I wonder when we'll catch the killer."

Li Qianyi shook his head as his phone rang.

The person on the phone was my aunt.

"Hey, Yi Zi, how are you doing lately? Do you have enough money? If not, your aunt will transfer you some more." The voice on the other end of the phone was warm and loud.

"That's enough, no need to hit me."

Li Qianyi's parents divorced early. His father raised him until he was eleven years old, but also died in an accident. After that, he lived with his uncle.

His uncle's family wasn't wealthy, but they treated him no differently than their own son.

"Why are there police sirens over there? What happened this time?"

"I don't know either, it seems like someone else has died," Li Qianyi replied.

"Hey, I've seen it all on Douyin. The economy's been bad lately, and things aren't peaceful across the country. You shouldn't go out too much. School is definitely better than outside, you hear me?"

"I know, I know, don't worry."

"And another thing, you're not getting any younger, when are you going to bring a girlfriend home?"

Upon hearing his aunt start urging him to find a girlfriend, Li Qianyi's lips twitched.

Since I started university, my aunt has been calling me every now and then to urge me to find a girlfriend at school.

"I saw Qianmeng playing King of Glory online again the other day. Do you think he secretly bought a new phone? He's about to take the college entrance exam, so it's best to let him focus on his studies."

"What? That brat secretly bought another cell phone."

The aunt immediately flew into a rage.

This is for your own good, dear cousin.

Li Qianyi silently said something to himself, but his aunt still nagged and gave him instructions for a long time before hanging up the phone to deal with Li Qianyi's cousin.

Just after Li Qianyi hung up the phone, the dormitory door was pushed open a moment later.

The boy who walked in was short and thin, and wore glasses.

Li Qianyi's second roommate, Lin Zicheng.

"I'm back."

"Sigh." Lin Zicheng sighed as soon as he lay down on the bed.

"What's wrong?" Li Qianyi asked.

"Didn't you hear the police sirens just now?"

"I heard that, who died this time?"

"Let me tell you, the female owner of that escape room we went to last week is dead."

"what?"

Li Qianyi was taken aback.

"You didn't expect that, did you?" Lin Zicheng shook his head. "Like the people before, their heads also disappeared."

"It has been confirmed that a new psychopath has appeared near the university town. We don't know when the police will be able to catch him."

Lin Zicheng turned his head and asked again, "Hey, where's Kunzi?"

"I don't know, he went out," Li Qianyi said. "He won't be back tonight."

"At a time like this, you still have the mood to go out and book a hotel room?" Lin Zicheng muttered. "Aren't you afraid of running into that perverted killer? It would be better if you could just rank up with me."

As he spoke, he looked at Li Qianyi and asked, "Want to play games?"

"I'm not playing."

"Then you've missed an opportunity to rank up."

Upon hearing this, Li Qianyi remained silent and merely sneered.

Is that gaining points? It's a 360-degree plunge with no blind spots, the speed at which you lose points is comparable to bungee jumping.

Just then, a WeChat message popped up.

You have joined the group chat "Silent Covenant". Please note that some people in the group are not your friends.

Just as Li Qianyi was feeling a bit confused, a series of messages popped up.

Corn: Welcome to the family of those who have lost their homeland!

Blackfire: Welcome, newcomer!

Thunder: Welcome, newcomer!

"This game even has a player chat group? A real-life tarot club?"

Seeing everyone welcoming the newcomers, Li Qianyi also wanted to say a few words to liven up the atmosphere.

But after the last person finished speaking, the group fell silent, as if the task had been completed.

Li Qianyi then gave up on Shuiqun's idea.

If we get to know each other well, we'll have plenty of opportunities to meet in the future, so there's no rush.

Sumi sent another message.

Sumi: @Dongfang, have you completed the game registration?

Dongfang is Li Qianyi's WeChat name. He knew the other person was referring to him, so he replied.

Dongfang: Already registered

Corn: Stay in your birthplace for a while. In a few days, I'll give you a special dungeon story card so you can quickly accumulate 'Divine Faith' to buy potions and become an Extraordinary.

"Special dungeon story card?"

Looking at Su Mi's information, Li Qianyi remembered the special dungeon story card that A Meng had given him. Su Mi and the others also had one.

Li Qianyi thought for a moment and gave an OK sign.

......

The next day, Li Qianyi returned to his dormitory after finishing his advanced mathematics class.

His ideas were rather simple and straightforward.

Now that the opportunity to change his fate has presented itself, he must seize it.

Play games, become extraordinary.

Compared to other players, his knowledge of almost all mystical knowledge gives him an unparalleled advantage.

After a night's rest, you feel refreshed and your exploration ability has returned to its peak. Your current exploration ability is 7/7. Shall you begin a new day's journey immediately?

【Yes】

You slowly emerge from the gray, fog-shrouded jungle and find yourself in a somewhat bustling town.

You are currently in Paradise Lost, Dawnmist Town, part of the Silent Covenant on the continent of Solas.

Your identity is that of a private investigator and a devout follower of the 'Primordial God'.

"No, don't talk nonsense."

Li Qianyi looked at the pop-up message and pondered:

"This doesn't seem to be entirely the world of Lord of Mysteries. Has it been modified?"

Li Qianyi opened his character information.

[The Loser from His Hometown: Dongjun]

[Sequence Rank: None]

【HP: 14】

[Sanity Value: 15]

Armor: 0

Attack power: 0~3

"They're really bad at this."

Li Qianyi's lips twitched.

He remembered what his boss, "corn," had said and opened his backpack.

Use the [Special Story Dungeon Card - Elegy of the Setting Sun] given to you by Amon.

[Use the special story dungeon card 'Elegy for the Setting Sun'?]

【Yes】

You have entered the special story instance "Elegy for the Setting Sun"

[Special Note: Please find key story characters and items as soon as possible, as this will greatly increase your chances of clearing dungeons.]

A chaotic darkness rises before your eyes; you have arrived in a desolate wilderness.

The sky here is shrouded in dense darkness; you can't see the moon or the stars. Only a few lights from a town are faintly visible in the night.

You walked briskly towards the town, and soon you saw a figure in a police uniform under a boulder.

His breathing was heavy, a bloody mist rose from his chest, and a faint smell of blood filled the air.

His gradually unfocused eyes saw you, and a glimmer of hope appeared on his face. He reached out his hand to you, yearning for your help.

This small town is unfamiliar to you and you've never been before. You might need a guide you have a good relationship with to help you find accommodation in the town. Of course, you can also choose to ignore him.

You have the following two options.

[Option A: Approach the person and ask if they need help]

[Option B: Ignore the other party and continue towards the town]
