Chapter 98: The Full Moon Queen's Heart is in TroubleThe Gate of the World Tree - this is the name of the third round of assessment, and it is also the general term for all the secret realms connected to the previous era. According to legend, the World Tree is a large, winding, spiral banyan tree, and on each of its branches are fruits called "World Bubbles". All the major events that occurred in the previous era, and even in the era before that, that affected the course of history were sealed in those "world bubbles". There are many such doors in Tianming Continent. If you open it, you can travel into history and witness everything that happened in that period of history. If you complete the tasks given by the World Tree, you will be blessed by it. That is the power of the origin of this world, and it is a precious treasure that neither the gods nor the abyss can give you. However, in the tens of thousands of years of history of Tianming Continent, there are only a handful of people who have been able to receive blessings from the World Tree. Most people in those world bubbles are doing their best just to survive. In addition, there is a saying that has been circulating on the Destiny Continent - There is a kind of people who are born to be the creators of history. Everything they did in the world bubble had long since become fixed in history itself. The world today is just the butterfly effect produced when people flap their wings.
However, this statement has not been widely recognized by scholars in Tianming Continent, and may just be a groundless urban legend. At this moment, the candidates who performed well in the first two rounds of examinations are gathering in front of the vortex door, quietly waiting for the final round of examinations. Although there is still some time before the doors open, how many of these young students can hold on? Many people were waiting outside this door at around eight in the morning. At this time, more and more people gathered, and the candidates were also looking at each other. These candidates who came from different countries, regions, and even races finally had the opportunity to say hello to each other - the third round of assessment was different from the previous two rounds. There was no clear competitive relationship between the candidates. On the contrary, they might even help each other in the secret realm. Since we are going to help each other, compliments are naturally indispensable. "Oh, isn't this Her Excellency Nalan Qing, the Saint of the Church of Order? Your arrival has filled this place with the light of order." Nalan Yu, the Saint of Order, is a pure girl with long red hair and oriental features. It is said that her bloodline comes from the destroyed Yunlan Kingdom. She is known as the most outstanding saint of the Church of Order in the past hundred years. "You are too kind, Anri-sama. I am still far from being good enough." Anri is the son of the Archbishop of the Shadow Church and the youngest Shadow Deacon. His long black hair and constant elegance and calmness are his labels. When the Son of God and the genius got together, even their speech suddenly became more literary. It is hard to doubt that this is a conversation between two minors. "Nalan Lord, I wonder what your ambitions are for this journey to the World Tree?" "It's not ambition. I just hope to get a little blessing from the World Tree. What about Anli Qing?" Nalan Yu smiled softly. "As for me, of course I hope to become the legendary person who makes history." Anri raised his head at a 45-degree angle and placed his hands flat, as if feeling something. "I think this is the meaning of our birth into this world. Haha, come to think of it, the wind today is indeed a bit noisy." “Is it mixed with some sour smell that cannot be described in words?” Suddenly, a rough voice sounded. Anri sniffed and smelled the odor of high heels fished out of a stinky ditch. He resisted the urge to vomit and looked towards the source of the sound.
I saw Mu, wearing only his underwear on his head, swaggering towards me. Li Cheng and Karenina were following behind him, one with a sunny and warm smile on her face, and the other with a smile as sweet as plum jam. You know what, at first glance, it looks quite human. With the arrival of these three people, the whispers in the audience stopped abruptly. Everyone looked at the three guys with gloomy expressions. There is nothing we can do about this. These three are first-rate new Dongxi students. The first seat was taken by Mu, the son of the God of War. He had a dignified aura and a face like a paladin. If one didn’t know what he had done, one would really be fooled by him - this was the newborn who openly declared that everyone in the audience was garbage during the assessment. He didn't need to speak, just standing there was enough to attract the murderous intent of the entire audience. It could be said that he was a human-shaped hot weapon of hatred. The second seat, Karenina, a country girl who came from nowhere, has a lovely smile, big eyes that make people want to fall in love at first sight, and pink hair. But under that angelic appearance, she hides a heart of a snake and scorpion. This was a terrifying existence who, during the examination, used sting enforcement to send the candidates back to their hometowns one by one. Even the legendary "three-faced monster ball" did not eliminate as many people as she did. The most terrifying thing was that she did not even leave any money for the candidates to go home. Pink Nightmare - this is her nickname among the candidates. The third place, the record holder with 151 points, is Li Cheng, who has a face and figure like an ancient sculpture, and the sunniest and warmest smile. Compared with the first two, this one is much more anthropomorphic. Although he has done such outrageous things as attacking the examiner and accepting bribes from candidates, he did not directly eliminate other candidates. In addition, it is said that Li Cheng has always been unwilling to give up his two friends. In order to keep his promise, he even directly rejected the request of Queen Man Yue to accept him as a disciple. He is a man of affection and righteousness. After calming down, the candidates spoke highly of him. The number of people who supported sincerity far exceeded those who opposed sincerity. "I say..." Anri covered his mouth and nose, forcibly resisting the urge to spit out, and looked at Mu: "Why do you put your underwear on your head?" "Oh, a fool like you naturally can't understand my operation." Mu Bai glanced at him and sneered. "You..." Anri narrowed his eyes, took a deep breath, and decided not to bother with this pervert. Unexpectedly, Mu sneered and followed him: "Boy, don't you like the feeling of being the center of attention? But look now, are they looking at me or you?" "What?" Anli was stunned. He slowly turned his head and found that the eyes that were originally focused on him had already shifted to Mu. Mu also showed a winner's smile and stood with his hands behind his back: "Boy, the gap between you and me is like a chasm between heaven and earth. You still have a long way to go." I don’t want this kind of attention... Anri’s mouth twitched, he took a step back and swallowed. I just like to pretend a little, not to be a pervert... Anri was determined to keep his distance from Mu. Unexpectedly, Mu came close to him again, and while doing so, he took out another pair of underwear from his chest pocket and stuffed it into Anli's hand at an angle where no one could see. "You and I are destined to meet, so I will give you my spare props. Use them well." After saying that, Mu let out a long roar toward the sky and left in a graceful manner. Only Anri was left, disheveled in the wind.
He looked at the underwear in his hand in confusion, but the next second, he felt a disgusting gaze. The Saint of Order, Nalan Yu, was pursing her lips and looking at him as if he were a pervert, and also at the underwear in his hand. "Anri-sama, please tell me why you carry this thing with you?" "No, that's not right. This, this thing, he, he is not mine!" Anri panicked. "Of course I know this isn't yours. After all, it's a lady's lace style... and it seems to have been worn before..." Nalan Yu took a half step back, frowning: "An Liqing, are you a pervert? You're not planning to put this thing on your head, are you?" "I, I'm not! You, you guys please believe me, believe me!" Anri wanted to cry but had no tears. He wanted to explain, but at this moment, footsteps were heard. The Full Moon Queen walked over surrounded by several examiners. Her face was dignified and cold, and she didn't say a single word. The candidates around her consciously made way for her. Anri looked at the Full Moon Queen who had arrived and his heart trembled. He had no choice but to put the women's underwear into his pocket. But it was obvious that Anri was just being sentimental. Because the Full Moon Queen's gaze did not stay on him for a second, she quickly walked through the crowd and came to the side of the vortex gate. The palm of the hand was gently placed on the door, and the next second, the vortex-shaped pattern began to rotate. The door to the world tree opened. "Everyone, you are all elites among elites, geniuses among geniuses, so I won't say anything high-sounding." The Full Moon Queen glanced at the 39 students: "The historical fragment you arrive at when exploring the secret realm is completely random. I don't know which era you will arrive at." "For most of you, this journey is just a dream. When you wake up, you can't even remember what happened in the dream. You also don't know why a certain relic or prop suddenly appears at hand." "But if any of you remember clearly what happened in the dream, please write down those secrets after you return. This is very important to the Destiny Continent." "Only if we understand the abyss can we defeat them." "Then, everyone, please enter. I wish you good luck in fighting." "I also hope that you can come back alive." Li Cheng listened quietly to the speech of the Full Moon Queen. The door of the World Tree is actually a core setting of "The Rising of Destiny", or in layman's terms, it is an abyss copy. According to the setting of the game, explorers who return from the gate of the world tree will lose all memories of being inside the gate. But obviously, this law does not apply to players. In the original PC version, these copies are completely fixed. Although they can produce relics and skills, they have nothing to do with the main storyline and are not very playable. Li Cheng has completed the game countless times and can even complete it with his eyes closed. However, the instruction manual of the brain-computer version clearly mentions that new AI technology will be used to redo the copy. Based on the original process, the degree of freedom of the copy will be improved, and multiple story lines, a variety of new props, and new relics will be added to it, so that the world inside the door can be connected to the main line. Therefore, the "Door of the World Tree" is also the part that Li Cheng is most interested in during this trial play.
He couldn't wait to know what the plot of the world behind the door would be like and what kind of relics and abilities it could provide him. What kind of evil sect can be formed by those new gains? Following the other candidates, Li Cheng stepped into the door. As the last candidate entered the door, the vortex stopped and their destination finally appeared on the door. [1345 BC, Abyss Realm - City of Fraud] [Difficulty rating: 4 stages, SSS level] The pupils of all the examiners suddenly shrank to a point. "How is it possible? How could it be such a high-level abyss?" "Aren't the doors of the World Tree arranged according to the average strength of those who enter?" "Why would a group of candidates who were only at level 3 at the highest trigger a level 4 secret realm, and they were even at SSS level..." "It's troublesome, it's a big trouble. At the SSS level, it's no longer a question of whether they can obtain secrets and props, it's a question of whether they can survive..." And in a place where no one was paying attention, the Full Moon Queen was also staring at the line of words and clenched her fists. For the first time, a brief panic appeared on her face, which was always cold and serious. But the strange thing was that in the puddle formed by raindrops at her feet, her reflection was smiling playfully. It’s like the wonderful person in the water and the full moon queen are not the same person. "It's actually... there..." She murmured to herself: "1345, that's... where I was... born..." At the same time, her eyes suddenly turned to Li Cheng. How could it be such a coincidence? Why did he enter this timeline... The Full Moon Queen suddenly thought of another incredible possibility - There are very few people who can fix the history of the timeline within the World Tree Gate. Could it be that…… Did Li Cheng enter this door and meet himself from ten thousand years ago? is it possible? (End of this chapter)
