Chapter 24 The end of the copy
When the white light dissipated, Yu Yueming found that he had returned to the white space before the beginning of the copy.
There was still the long table in front of him, but only Lin Qiushuang and Qi Yuanze were left around him.
"Congratulations. Everyone has successfully passed the level."
Lin Qiushuang smiled at them and broke the silence.
Immediately, the system's prompt sound also sounded in Yu Yueming's mind.
[The copy of "Mountain Village Divine Tree" has been cleared]
[Main mission reward: 8 points]
[Copy Background Exploration Reward: 2 Points]
[Reward for Killing Mythical Creatures: 5 Points]
Points? Yu Yueming's ears moved. I don't know if this point is too much, and how useful it is.
Lin Qiushuang should have heard the prompt sound. She said "tsk" with a rare "tsk", as if she had discovered something that made her unhappy.
He noticed that the other two were looking at her, she looked at the hourglass on the table and explained.
"This time we will have about an hour. I will try my best to introduce you to the relevant matters of this game. Are you in a hurry to ask questions?"
"Yes." After leaving the dungeon, Qi Yuanze immediately resurrected with full blood. He looked like he was a ok person and raised his hand decisively, "Is there anything wrong with this reward? You don't seem to be very satisfied?"
Lin Qiushuang sighed.
"It's not that I'm not dissatisfied, but... this point is not the point reward that novices should have. This time the difficulty of the dungeons exceeds the standard."
Qi Yuanze looked a little confused: "Does the main mission give a lot of points? Oh yes, there is also a dungeon background reward for two points, and a little reward for killing monsters."
Yu Yueming glanced at him. Judging from this passage, he only received five points. From this point of view, everyone's rewards are different.
"Your mission is different from ours, so the points you get are also different. Generally, novices' dungeons will only reward one point, and at most two points will be the highest. Some dungeons do not even reward them with points. This time something is obviously wrong." Lin Qiushuang replied.
After mentioning this, Yu Yueming suddenly became curious: "When you say this, how difficult is your previous novice copy?"
"My novice copy is a farm. The farmer asked us to investigate the rumors of haunting in the warehouse. In the end, it was discovered that it was made by a human-faced mouse as big as a cat. The mouse could talk, but it was not strong in combat and was similar to an ordinary beast. The veteran solved it directly."
When Yu Yueming heard this, he was shocked.
You told me that this copy and the one just now are both novice copies? What is the difference between you and saying that both primary school exams and graduate exams are exams?!
No wonder she always felt that the difficulty of the previous dungeon was problematic, and anyone else would think that the difficulty was problematic!
But the creature she just described...is it a human-faced rat in the mythology?
Thinking of this, and thinking of the black goat in the dungeon, he hesitated for a moment and asked the question in his heart.
"About the monsters in the dungeon... have you heard of the Cthulhu myth?"
"Cthulhu myth?" Lin Qiushuang asked in confusion, "Is there anything special about this myth? I don't study these things normally and have no understanding of these things."
"...It's nothing, I just think that the monsters in the dungeon are somewhat similar to the creatures mentioned in this myth."
She didn't know the Cthulhu myth...but Wen Jing in the copy indeed mentioned the name of the god in the Chronicle mythology, which could not be a simple coincidence.
Although the myth of Croatia is niche, it is not so famous. As long as you search the relevant nouns on the Internet, you will definitely find relevant information. This veteran will not do any related investigations at all, so why hasn’t she heard of the myth of Croatia?
Lin Qiushuang saw Yu Yueming's doubts and explained: "Although I don't know why you are paying attention to this, we are likely from different parallel worlds, so it is normal for cultural differences. The myth you are talking about may not exist in my world at all."
Yu Yueming was surprised at this answer, but quickly accepted this statement.
That's right. Before entering the game, he traveled to the novel of the Chris. The story of that novel took place in the 20th century, and other players obviously came from a more developed modern era. Thinking of this way, parallel worlds are not worth his fuss.
Yu Yueming became distracted by thinking, while Lin Qiushuang opened up a new topic.
"Then I'll review the copy first and analyze our wrong choices in the copy or missing important clues to avoid making the same mistake next time.
"Let me talk about the deaths of those two companions first.
"The direct reason for their danger should be that the card reads, blaspheming the fruits of the sacred tree.
"From the fact that we returned to the hotel, their meals should also include the sacred tree fruits. After seeing the abnormality of the fruits before, they might have reacted excessively.
“If you don’t react abnormally, you may not encounter this danger.
"And maybe the previous task description of the 'Picking Fruit' is a trap in itself. As long as you pick the fruit, you will be tempted to eat it."
After saying this, Qi Yuanze held his chin and thought for a moment, nodded: "...Indeed, although I like adventure, I didn't think too much about eating the fruit. Now that I think about it, it doesn't seem to look like my style."
With this analysis, the seemingly calm village is indeed full of dangers.
However, considering the monsters everywhere in the mountains and forests in the end, those two people might not be able to be safe if they followed them into the forest to investigate.
There are dangers everywhere, and future copies must not be careless about seemingly peaceful environments.
Seeing that Lin Qiushuang's explanation came to an end, Qi Yuanze raised his hand and asked: "To put it, what is the sacred tree? Why do the monsters in the mountains and forests exist? Many mysteries have not been solved, right?"
Lin Qiushuang shook her head: "Where will I go to find the answers to you? But since I have said this, I want to remind you that it is enough to have clues in the dungeon, so don't go into too much about some situations. Although exploring the truth can get extra points, sometimes excessive exploration can bring danger."
Like the myth of restraint, is it the more you know, the more dangerous it is? Yu Yueming couldn't help but associate it.
Qi Yuanze insisted: "What if I want to know in particular?"
Lin Qiushuang thought for a while: "It's not entirely impossible. Sometimes, we will encounter copies that are related to the copy that we have passed. In the new copy, we can occasionally get answers about past events."
Is this okay? Yu Yueming raised his ears. In other words, there may be a follow-up to the copy?
If there is a connection between the dungeons, you cannot rely on your own "will leave the dungeon in the end". If you accidentally cheat yourself.
This topic was quickly revealed. However, the "monsters in the forest" mentioned by Qi Yuanze reminded him of the existences in the dungeon.
Thinking of this, he asked a question.
"The dead trees in the dungeon should have been turned into by the missing persons who ate the fruits. Many people in the village should have eaten the fruits, so are they actually all such monsters?"
Lin Qiushuang shook her head.
"I don't know the people in the village. But I think the two missing people may be special. It may be because they suffered fatal injuries that caused the fruit to mutate them, or it may be because the client had tampered with it before.
"However, based on the length of the mutation, the two dead trees should be far from the peak of their power.
"So, when monsters appeared in the woods, I chose to escape first. Because those monsters must be much stronger than those two dead trees."
This answer explains some of his doubts. After all, if the two dead trees were really black goats, as the offspring of one of the three pillars of gods - although they were mass-produced offspring - they did seem to be a bit too weak.
On the other side, seeing that the two of them had no other questions, Lin Qiushuang clapped her hands.
