Players’ NPC daddy.

"If you can restore it one-to-one without any deviation in details, I don't mind." The fat man yawned and waved to Dali Feizhuan to send him off. "Go away, I want you to log off and rest. Really, you young people are still so energetic at this hell time."

"Then why did you specially prepare that kind of environment? How loyal are you to your own character setting?" Dali Feizhuan shrugged, operated the panel a few times and was about to leave as soon as possible.

But before leaving, he asked on a whim.

"What game is your son playing recently?"

"'ChiXDensha 25'."

"...Cough cough cough, can't he be allowed to play some healthier games without any illegal content? Making counterfeit money is fine, but he also plays cough cough cough." Dali Feizhuan coughed awkwardly.

"It's because he makes too clear a distinction between reality and virtuality, and vents all his desires in the virtual world."

Chapter 501 One move is missing

The eight-legged warhorse Threpnir, Odin's mount, can step on any corner of the world with its hooves.

This world includes the world of death.

This means that the eight-legged warhorse is the freest creature in the world. Neither life nor death can restrain it, so it is naturally very difficult to control it.

Consider its first two owners, Odin and the second Cyclops, both of whom possessed immense power and omniscience.

Blaze didn't think he could match Odin and the second-generation Cyclops now. After all, he was just a teenager in his growing period and couldn't compare to these guys whose ages couldn't be described by numbers.

So Blaze made two preparations, one was bribery, the other was coercion. Leaving aside the bribery, coercion did require preparation, and it was estimated that the eight-legged warhorse would have to bleed a little.

The eight-legged warhorse is a divine horse, but a divine horse is also a horse and a beast, and is within the special attack range of the Hunter.

Blaze opened the blessing and felt that it was time to use the ancient amulet given by the fallen elves to advance the [Hunter] to [Hunter].

As soon as I clicked on the [Hunter] profession, a box popped up.

[Conditions satisfied: Do you want to sacrifice Hunter LV15?]

Blaze subconsciously nodded [Yes], after all, he was not good at saying no.

"……Depend on!"

[Missing key items, sacrifice failed]

"Depend on!"

Blaze couldn't help but swear, but this time he was thankful. Good fellow, they ambushed him here, and he almost sent the Hunter away again.

Some extremely special hidden professions are rewards for blessed people who have completed certain achievements, or treasure chests. To open a treasure chest, you need a key, and the key is often a prop.

In other words, he was now just missing a certain item, and the [Hunter] would be forced to leave and become another unrelated profession.

Blaze knew with his toes that this achievement must be related to defeating the [Solarized Yamata-no-Orochi], so he'd better be wary of items related to the [bow] recently.

Although that unknown profession must be very strong, [Hunter] also has great prospects.

Most monsters carry the [Beast] affix, which can easily reveal the opponent's true colors. Looking at the constellations he will return to in the future, the prefixes are all [Beast King], which means beast, and [Hunter] will definitely shine among them.

So let’s wait a little longer for this unknown profession.

Blaze waved away the prompt box and carefully checked the items in his warehouse.

As expected, there were no drops from the Yamata no Orochi.

Finally, the incarnation of the Yamata no Orochi, the sun, was equivalent to completely transforming its own body and soul into a powerful attack, so naturally no materials or experience points were dropped.

When it came to the twisted greatsword, Blaze paused and took out this old friend.

I still remember clearly how scared I was when we first met. I almost chopped his head off.

The twisted blade split the sunlight, dazzling but unable to conceal its decay.

The Yamata no Orochi retreated smoothly, and the quality of the twisted sword was reduced. Not only did it lose its snake fire and additional attacks, but its attributes were also reduced to the original state, that is, the state when it was split in half by the powerful flying brick.

The power of this weapon can no longer keep up with him. The change of dynasties is not surprising, let alone the replacement of weapons. But Blazer felt a little regretful. He and this weapon have been together for a long time...

"It doesn't seem like it was long."

Strictly speaking, Black Beast Knight Blaze is the old friend of Twisted Greatsword, he is a latecomer.

Blaze threw the twisted sword out with all his strength, then opened his palm and the twisted sword flew back. The heavy impact of the sword landing on his palm made Blaze realize that this sword still had other secrets hidden.

If a weapon flies out of your hand, you can only pick it up if you want to get it back. Very few of them can fly back by themselves, and they are generally of very high quality.

Blaze's guess about the twisted greatsword is that the greatsword and the Black Beast Knight's armor are one, so they can call each other. And as the armor lost its name, the greatsword was also forgotten.

Ultimately, he still had to go to the Golden Kingdom and find a way to remove the curse of the armor. Putting aside the problem of the twisted sword, if he didn't take off the armor, he would only be seen as a black beast knight and a werewolf in the eyes of others.

"Ah~" Blaze flicked the blade of the twisted greatsword hard, "I guess the curse has been lifted, and you will definitely be held by your original owner and slashed at me. Don't expect me to show mercy then."

"Do you know you're talking to a weapon?"

Chicken tilted his head and complained, but this only aroused Blaze's interest.

"Do you think weapons can have souls?"

"...This question needs to be discussed in categories, depending on what kind of soul you think it is." Chicken answered Blaze seriously and took the dwarves as an example.

"From the perspective of the blessed, there should be. The [Blacksmiths] among the blessed can gain special experience points by forging weapons, which is similar to absorbing soul flames by defeating monsters."

"But from the perspective of normal creatures, we have to classify them based on what it means to have a soul. If we want to classify them in more detail, we have to classify them based on the type of weapon. For example, is a weapon like Grem considered a weapon? Is the soul born in a weapon made of monster material the soul of the monster or the soul of the weapon?"

Blazer hadn't expected that the chicken would expand on his casual question to such a detailed level, but when he thought about it carefully he realized that the chicken was just showing off her intelligence without making a sound.

A question that could be answered with a simple nod or shake of the head was stretched into a long string of words.

It's like showing off oneself in a simple and crude way by showing off one's beautiful feathers and extraordinary fighting ability in the past, but now one is showing off oneself in a restrained way by showing off one's knowledge.

But since Chicken had mentioned this much, Blazer continued asking questions just to see how knowledgeable Chicken could pretend to be.

"When I say soul, I mean the kind that can talk, like a soul floating out of a weapon, or turning into a human or something."

"I don't think you can do the latter. Humanization is essentially a skill for transformation between living things. Only living things can possess it. As for the former, it's hard to say. Even Gungnir behind you doesn't have such a strong and clear self-awareness."

The chicken shook her head. Before arriving at the city of Mekingjord, she had been talking about everything from heaven to earth without stopping, but the general meaning was that there was no hope.

No matter what kind of weapon it is, no matter how righteous and gorgeous words are used to describe it, weapons are born for killing, and the souls born in that way will not bring any beautiful stories.

Moreover, the chicken told Blaze very seriously that it was okay for him to think about this as a human being, but it would be very scary if it happened to other creatures.

The weapons of other creatures are their claws and teeth. But if one day these claws and teeth develop souls and have self-awareness, how terrible that would be.

"After all, the soul is affected by the body, and weapons are not really good bodies. If they have souls, they are probably evil weapons that tempt their users to fight endlessly."

"The dream is shattered." Blaze sighed regretfully. Every teenager dreams of obtaining a weapon that has a fairy in it.

But now that I think about it, even if such a weapon really exists, it would probably be something like a dark fairy tale.

For some reason, when Blazer talked about dark fairy tales, he thought of Greenland. The evil cat orcs were the monsters in the darkest fairy tales.

"Ha, maybe there really will be a dark fairy tale mission."

Chapter 502 Hidden Mission is also looking for players

Mekingiod, the city of strength, is also the city of cats.

Among tens of thousands of lazy cats, there is only one black cat with a path to the belly of the Ouroboros.

Blaze found the black cat very easily. It was lying gracefully on a stone pier, seemingly waiting for him to come over.

This is also a necessary skill for old guys, pretending to be deep. The main purpose is to make the little guys have the illusion that [they knew I was coming a long time ago], so that everything seems to be under their control.

In response, Blaze lifted up the black cat's hind legs and flicked its bell as a protest against the old man's pretentious behavior.

Blaze showed a smug expression, and Chicken felt helpless about such childish behavior and said seriously.

"You know that the Ouroboros has transformed into tens of thousands of cats. It would be useless if you shoot one of them. Why don't you call on tens of thousands of strangers and shoot them at the same time? I believe that even if the Ouroboros itself doesn't have this organ, it will still feel pain."

"Come on, let's start by calling on strangers and call it the [Bell Ringing Activity]."

"How much do you hate snakes?"

The chicken used its more childish but very feasible behavior to successfully make Blaze feel that it was time to do the real thing first.

Blaze picked up the black cat, but he didn't plan to go directly to Helm. Since he was here, why not do something else?

The underworld of Helheim recently gained its own sun, and the land finally has vitality, but no one is farming or reclaiming the land, which is a very bad thing.

Blaze plans to send a few very prestigious [farmers] strangers to Helheim first, so that the land of Helheim can be revitalized.

The underworld of Helheim is the world of the dead and currently has no so-called economy, so Blaze hopes to distribute food to strangers for free so that Hela can be freed from the work of gnawing on the hungry.

But Blaze discovered that it was actually quite difficult to find a foreigner who met the requirements.

This made him have to complain that strangers often complained that they couldn't find someone to trigger the hidden task. Is it possible that people with hidden tasks are also eager to find strangers who meet the conditions, but they just can't find them?

Blazer set a time for himself, and if he couldn't find anyone in half a day, he would give up. But half a day passed, and no one met the requirement.

Blaze couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

"That's normal, right? This is the City of Strength. How could there be farmers here?" Chicken consoled him, and said, "Actually, this should be left to Hebi. Food is something she's good at."

"Isn't it difficult for me to go see Herbie?"

Blaze fiddled with the black cat in his hand, pinching its two front paws and making it walk upright. The black cat did not resist, but looked at Blaze as if he was a fool.

Thinking that this guy is actually the incarnation of Ouroboros, and thinking about Hebi's current identity...

"Hey, your dad, mom...your dad is doing something weird right now, is there any way to get rid of him?"

Blazer lifted the black cat's paw, letting it bounce back and forth like a spring with its own extension. But no matter how severely he tortured it, the black cat didn't say a word.

"How about you take a message for me?" Blaze turned his head and looked at Ji. He had no way of meeting Herbie in person now, and any content of the conversation would be maliciously misinterpreted by Herbie.

"Why does it look like you two are having a conflict and you want me to act as a messenger." Ji raised her head and thought for a moment, and found that this was a good thing, as she could watch the show firsthand.

There have been too many serious things lately, and she has no chance to see the pink aura between boys and girls.

Take Amaterasu for example, no matter how you look at it, it should make Marika feel uncomfortable. But Marika was burdened with heavy responsibilities and was busy with work, so she had no time to get jealous. She just wanted to be affectionate as long as possible, replenish her elements, and then continue working.

The unrest in this world prevents her from watching the show!

Chicken suddenly had an epiphany, her vision and awareness expanded in an instant, reaching high into the sky was no longer her ultimate goal, but a necessary means to achieve the ultimate goal.

Blaze looked at the chicken with its wings spread out, looking at the sky, with holy light shining behind it, and didn't know what to say for a moment. Although the brain of Mist Nifukin did not improve the intelligence of the chicken, it made the chicken's brain power stronger.

"Ahem, this job is just right for me!"

The noise made by the chicken successfully attracted the attention of the people around, especially the strangers. The strangers gathered around Blaze as soon as they saw him, and many of them asked about the topic of the "Twelve Beasts".

It seems that Dali Feizhuan and the others have successfully spread the news, and Blaze nodded secretly. But what surprised Blaze was that the [Twelve Beasts] were involved in a competition called [World Competition] to compete for the strongest stranger.

This aroused Blaze's interest. Maybe he could see the pink-haired rabbit. At the same time, Blaze also thought that this was a very good strategy, which could better motivate the foreigners to find the [Twelve Beasts].

The strangers were very enthusiastic, but Blaze was in a hurry. He used [The track of the sun hides the coordinates of the twelve beasts] to make the strangers collectively roll their eyes and become dazed. He took the opportunity to use the black cat's eyes to enter the underworld of Helheim.

As soon as he landed, Blaze noticed the changes in his surroundings. The world was still filled with dead silence as always, but the sky was no longer dull and silent.

The sky... was screaming. To be more precise, it was the sun that was screaming.

A gray sun nailed by several chains kept making painful roars. Perhaps it was a roar of curses or vicious abuse, but when it reached the ground, only the roar was left.

That was the voice of the second-generation One-Eye, no, here he should be called the Dead Sun Balder.

"I thought this guy would change after falling into Helm's underworld, but he still looks this disgusting."

“Who can accept going from the throne of the sky to being a slave in a rotten and dead world?” Chicken carried Blaze on his back and ran while complaining, “By the way, what is your relationship with Hela? Why don’t you just send you to the palace? Why do you have to run over there?”

"Maybe Hela doesn't even know we're here." Blaze closed his eyes and looked at the dead sun in the sky from a blind perspective.

For some reason, he felt that this guy would never stay there honestly.

"You said that after you threw the eight-legged horse into Helheim, it tried to escape. What about Balder after he entered Helheim?"

"How do I know this?"

Chapter 503: Three or Two Ways to Deal with Strangers

Loyalty is a virtue, and even enemies will pay respect to those who possess this virtue. But if the object of loyalty is a very annoying, disgusting, and inhuman existence, then loyalty is troublesome.

"That eight-legged guy is not still loyal to Balder, is he? Sometimes, being able to change one's mind according to the situation and taking advantage of others' misfortune can be a good virtue!"

If the eight-legged horse intends to rescue Balder, it will be a huge problem. The fact that Balder has escaped from the one-eyed shell and has become the incarnation of the sun makes it impossible for Balder to escape from the Ouroboros.

"I have to admit now that the [FLAG God] you mentioned might really exist!" Chicken also realized the seriousness of the problem.
