Becoming God starting with the word game in Lord of Mysteries
Chapter 56 The Wailing of the Dead, The Circus Night Begins
The next day, in the evening, in front of the Four Seasons Hotel in Shanghai.
Xiao Qing looked at Wang Kun, who had a dark expression on his face, and scratched his head.
"What's wrong with him?"
"It's nothing, just a little scary." Lin Zicheng smiled awkwardly.
Li Qianyi felt very guilty and didn't say a word.
A total of five people from the Jinling City Bureau of Fantasy participated in the Shanghai operation.
Tan Bin, Xiao Qing, Li Qianyi, Wang Kun, and Lin Zicheng.
Soon, a tall woman stepped forward.
She was probably around twenty-six or twenty-seven years old, with her long hair tied in a low ponytail. She wore a simple white shirt and dark casual pants. She wasn't particularly eye-catching in the crowd, but she had a clean and neat demeanor.
"Captain Tan, hello."
She stepped forward, her gaze sweeping over the group before finally settling on Tan Bin. "I am Ye Nizhou, an administrative staff member of the Shanghai Fantasy Bureau. I'm here to greet you all."
Tan Bin nodded and shook her hand.
"Please come this way."
Ye Nizhou turned and led the way, walking at a moderate pace, tilting her head slightly when she spoke to ensure everyone could hear her.
"As you all probably already know, the main reason I invited you to Shanghai is because a large-scale 'Old World Tomb' is about to open in Shanghai."
As Ye Nizhou spoke, a series of messages appeared on their phones.
[You have obtained the clue "The City of Miracles: Remnants"]
The large-scale ancient ruins, "City of Miracles," are about to open. Players, please prepare accordingly.
"This 'City of Miracles' is extremely special, and many players have already infiltrated Shanghai, waiting for their chance to strike."
"Our initial estimate is that there may be several hundred or even thousands."
"So many?" Wang Kun and Lin Zicheng were surprised.
"That's right. Besides players from our country, there are also players from overseas who came specifically for this ancient tomb," Ye Nizhou said.
"We are seeking your assistance both to maintain order and to prevent unexpected events from occurring after the instance is opened."
"They couldn't have come here to help us obtain the 'Old World Tomb,' could they?" Lin Zicheng suddenly said.
Ye Nizhou glanced at him and nodded, saying, "On the surface, they are shareholders of multinational corporations, and they have come to Shanghai to discuss cooperation in the field of biomedicine."
"The main purpose is to address the impact of games invading reality and to initiate cooperative negotiations."
Ye Nizhou said, his gaze carrying a meaningful glint, "You all should be able to sense, to some extent, that games are gradually invading reality."
"It's just an old tomb now."
"In the future, it's possible that those dungeons in the game will be launched in real life."
"And within this, there is a great deal of profit to be made."
"In the end, they're just after our resources, aren't they?" Xiao Qing said.
"That's right, this ancient tomb is their target." Ye Nizhou nodded.
"Is it them?"
As Li Qianyi spoke, he saw three foreign faces emerge from the Four Seasons Hotel.
The leader was a very handsome young man with blond hair and deep yet soft facial features.
He was wearing a dark blue casual suit, without a tie, and the top button of his shirt was undone, giving him a perfectly relaxed look.
Li Qianyi's eyes lingered on him for less than half a second before he felt a subtle burning sensation.
It's like standing in the sunlight, directly exposed to the midday sun.
Solar pathway.
Your "extraordinary inspiration" takes effect.
You sensed the key to the 'Pure White Paradise'.
"This guy is the Pure White Saint, the 'Notary' of Sequence 6!"
This judgment instantly popped into Li Qianyi's mind.
There is a possibility that the divine kingdoms of the audience pathway and the divine kingdoms of the solar pathway could merge, and the other party is definitely here for the remains of the divine kingdom of the Imaginary Dragon.
"Assistant Ye, who are these people?" The blond young man's gaze swept over the faces of the group, finally landing on Ye Nizhou, his tone polite yet casual.
Ye Nizhou introduced them: "They are colleagues from Jinling City. This is Captain Tan."
The blond young man's eyes lit up. He turned to Tan Bin and extended his hand, saying, "Hello, hello, it's nice to meet you."
Tan Bin shook hands with him, the pressure was moderate, and his expression remained unchanged.
"My game ID is Gabriel, and I'm the acting chairman of the New York 'Holy Cross Society'. You can just call me Evan."
When the blond young man smiled, he revealed a row of neat teeth. "These two are my assistants, Lucas and Victor."
He stepped aside to make way for his two taciturn companions behind him, saying, "Let's have a meal together sometime and have a deeper conversation."
His Chinese is very standard, with almost no accent.
"Gabriel?"
Li Qianyi pondered.
"No, his game ID is most likely 'Pure White Saint,' and Gabriel might be a fake ID he gave."
If the recipient can issue a name change card, there's no reason why the recipient shouldn't.
"Mr. Evan's Chinese is very good." Tan Bin's tone was ambiguous, neither a compliment nor a test.
"Thank you." Gabriel nodded slightly. "I spent a few years in China and really enjoyed the culture here."
His gaze moved between the several people, finally settling on Li Qianyi, where it lingered for about half a second.
In that instant, Li Qianyi felt a warm current flowing from that direction, as if something was gently brushing against his skin.
Li Qianyi remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he became wary.
However, Gabriel quickly withdrew his gaze, his smile unchanged, and turned to Ye Nizhou, saying, "I'm looking forward to the upcoming 'City of Miracles,' and I hope we can have a pleasant collaboration."
But just as he was about to leave, three more figures emerged.
They walked even more hurriedly.
The leader was a woman, probably in her early thirties, with long, flowing hair that fell to her shoulders.
Her eyes had a magical power to lull people to sleep, but at this moment they were furrowed.
Two people followed behind her, a man and a woman, both dressed in similar dark casual clothes.
"Captain?" Ye Nizhou looked at the woman and a hint of doubt flashed across his face.
She remembered that the captain had just been receiving other guests, so why did he suddenly come out?
"Captain Xie, what happened in such a hurry?" Tan Bin asked.
Xie Tang's expression was not relaxed; her brows were slightly furrowed, as if she was considering how to start the conversation.
Gabriel had already taken a step forward, but upon hearing Xie Tang's name, he paused and turned around: "Captain Xie, what's wrong?"
Xie Tang glanced at him and didn't hide anything: "A student died mysteriously today, and there seems to be an extraordinary factor behind it."
"Oh, that's really unfortunate."
Gabriel sighed regretfully, his expression switching perfectly to one of mourning. "I regret their deaths."
His tone was sincere, and his expression was appropriate, but Li Qianyi noticed that his eyes showed no fluctuation.
"Since you all have other matters to attend to, I won't bother you any longer. See you next time."
"Um."
After the others left, everyone's expressions turned serious.
"Need any help?" Tan Bin asked.
Xie Tang thought for a moment and shook his head: "It's getting late. You guys rest first. I'll go see what's going on and we can talk again tomorrow."
After saying that, she hurriedly left with the two people behind her.
Li Qianyi and the others followed Ye Nizhou to complete the check-in procedures.
Hearing about such a serious case from Xie Tang put everyone in a bad mood.
Li Qianyi stared at the information on his phone.
His expression was solemn.
Your "extraordinary inspiration" came into play.
[You sensed the wails of the dead emanating from 'Lucas' and 'Victor'!]
......
Lucas and Victor returned to their room.
The tallest of them all, Marcus, stood at the very back and asked, "How's it going? Have you collected everything?"
"That should be enough."
As Victor spoke, he swept his hand across the crystal bottles, where the crimson blood seemed to shimmer with flowing colors.
"I heard that the matriarch of the Five Grains, 'Millet,' suffered several setbacks in Jinling City, and even that great demon of the Zhifu Society was seriously injured."
Lucas carefully put away his share of the blood offering and said calmly, "But looking at them today, they don't seem to be anything special."
"This is none of our business," Victor said dismissively.
The three of them stared at their phones as new messages popped up.
The Circus Night is about to begin!
You have received an invitation from the Red Queen.
【use or not? 】
【Yes】
But the word game didn't continue. Just as the group was starting to have some doubts, everything went black.
They all lost consciousness.
......
Inside the hotel room.
Li Qianyi originally intended to secretly tell Tan Bin and the others about Lucas and Victor so they could find a solution.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered the room, game information popped up.
[The Circus Night of Wonders is about to begin, please get ready!]
Li Qianyi had no choice but to go into the bathroom and lock the door without even having time to pack his things.
Then open the game.
Welcome back, lost soul! Your spirit of exploration has been restored.
Li Qianyi first glanced at his backpack.
