Above the gray fog

In this vast void, former enemies began to support each other, and the battle had lost its meaning.

Some warriors of all races approached the recovering parasites cautiously, trying to communicate and comfort them.

However, this tranquility did not last long.

"'Void Core Oscillator'! How is it possible!" A cry of surprise exploded in everyone's mind, and under the colorful halo, everyone looked in a certain direction.

"Why does such an ancient device still exist in the world!!!" The voice was angry.

The distortion of the void gradually subsided, and the angry face and black hole-like eyes of the supervisor slowly dissipated in the starry sky, leaving behind an incredible tranquility.

Its threat echoed in the void, seeming to foreshadow the future storm, but at this moment, everyone was filled with the joy of victory and the comfort of survival.

"We... won?" The voice was unbelievable.

The warriors on the battlefield looked at each other, their eyes flashing with fatigue and relief.

"Oh, we won!!!"

......

Hearing the cheers, Lin Changsheng looked in the direction of the battlefield, "Is it over?"

"It seems to be over. I didn't expect the impact range of this device is so wide." Lin Bufan nodded slowly, her voice was steady and reassuring.

"Ah! We won." Fan Xiaoxiao couldn't help but cheer loudly, releasing all the depression and tension.

"The human circle is safe, and no one will die anymore." Chen Wuwei breathed a sigh of relief.

......

Time goes back to a month ago.

"Everyone can take one book here." The little fairy sitting on the golden cloud said.

"Is this the opportunity in the ancestral temple?" Fan Xiaoxiao looked up at the bookshelf that was circling upwards in amazement, and a ray of tiny beams of light shone through the gaps between the bookshelves.

In the beams of light, there were many tiny elves that were almost invisible to the naked eye flying, like dust dancing in the light.

"That's right, but this is not the ancestral temple you mentioned. This is the site of the old God's Court."

"The old God's Court?"

"It doesn't matter if you don't know. Go and look for the gift from the old days." The little goblin moved the pipe away and gently exhaled a puff of smoke. The golden cloud carried it slowly upward.

"You only have one month. Every spiral staircase here is a book tower. From low to high, the quality gradually increases. Remember, you can only take one book."

......

The four people dispersed and each chose a book tower to climb continuously.

These books have no covers and contents. The only information they know at present is that the higher you climb, the better you get.

One hundred meters, one thousand meters, ten thousand meters, one hundred thousand meters.

When Lin Changsheng climbed to one hundred thousand meters, he found that he could no longer climb. He couldn't bear the pressure above.

Lin Changsheng's fingers gently slid across the spine of the book. He felt that every book seemed to be the same.

Finally, his eyes fixed on a book that looked ordinary and almost inconspicuous. Just as he was about to pick up the book,

Suddenly there was a strange sound from above, and a book with a golden cover fell to his feet.

Lin Changsheng picked up the fallen book.

As the pages turned, it seemed to resonate with him inexplicably.

Thinking in his heart, Lin Changsheng understood that this might be his chance.

A month passed quickly, and Lin Changsheng, who was going downstairs, suddenly felt his feet lighten, and he had returned to the bottom of the book tower.

Standing around were the other three people, each holding a book in their hands.

The little goblin sitting on the golden cloud appeared again, and it looked at the books in the hands of the four people, with a strange look on its face, "Lucky children, don't let down the gifts of the past."

"Let's go, make good use of this opportunity."

Fan Xiaoxiao raised the book in her hand and asked, "Sister Elf, do you have any knowledge to deal with cluster life? Our people are suffering from the invasion of cluster life. Those insects are very powerful, we can't beat them, and many people have died."

"Can I use this book in my hand to exchange for knowledge to deal with cluster life?"

"If it's not enough, add mine." Chen Wuwei also handed over the book in his hand.

"......" The fairy sitting on the golden cloud was silent for a while, "Do you know what the book in your hand represents?"

"It's precious, but we want to protect our people more." Lin Changsheng also handed over the book in his hand.

"Yeah." Chen Bufan hummed softly.

The fairy on the golden cloud looked at the four people with either firm or casual expressions.

The figures of the four people were reflected in the fairy's pupils. She had seen countless greedy and selfish people who would sacrifice others for a little bit of their own interests. She had also seen many noble people and gods who sacrificed themselves to bless all living beings. The choice of the four people was not enough to make it produce additional emotions.

"It seems that something similar happened before. I can give you a way to resist cluster life, but in exchange, you can't take these four books out, which means you will miss a great opportunity, an opportunity that will allow you to go smoothly and reach the top.".

None of the four spoke. Perhaps they were a little hesitant in their hearts, but no one regretted it.

"Very good." The fairy suddenly chuckled, "Every time I see this kind of scene, it makes me happy physically and mentally. This means that the blood flowing in your bodies is indeed the blood of the past. Your humanity is beautiful. This spirit of sacrifice is one of the rarest and most precious emotions in the world."

"Children, your kindness is more precious than any knowledge in this library." The fairy's voice became gentle, "but the rules of exchange will not change, everything in this world is equal."

A book floated down from the sky.

A cylindrical device covered with a layer of bronze rust flew out of the space crack.

"This book contains the knowledge you want. This device is called the 'Void Core Oscillator'. It is my extra gift to you. The activation key has been lost, but the key is not of too high a technological level. It can be made with only source material."

"Thank you, fairy sister!" Fan Xiaoxiao picked up the device and smiled happily.

"Lin Changsheng, take the book." Chen Bufan looked at Lin Changsheng and said.

"Yeah." Lin Changsheng nodded gently and took the book in his hand.

"Thank you." Lin Changsheng thanked him and turned to walk out the door.

"Thank you." Others followed.

The fairy exhaled a puff of smoke and looked at the four figures disappearing in the light and said to himself, "You deserve better, provided that you are alive and enter here for the second time."
