As a blacksmith, it's not too much to wear a set of divine equipment.

When the Titan Ape completely disappeared, a secret entrance also appeared.

Qin An and the other two walked straight in.

The long and narrow corridor had traces of ancient excavation on the wall.

Soon they arrived in front of a door.

Qin An stepped forward and put his hand on it to feel the material of the door.

The material of this door is very special. It is not like stone or iron, but more like a special composite material.

There is a lot of moss growing on it. Obviously, no one has been here for a long time.

Qin An retracted his hand and said, "This is a product of the last era. The synthesis process of this material is not like the current one."

"Last era!" Galina was slightly surprised.

"Last era?"

Shirley rolled her eyes and thought.

Then Qin An took out the key that the Titan Ape dropped just now.

Looking at the key in his hand, Qin An remembered the last words of the Titan Ape just now.

"Help me persuade him..."

Qin An took a deep breath.

"If it's really that person, this is too magical..."

The key was inserted into the keyhole and fit perfectly.

Qin An turned it gently and it opened.

It seems that the key is correct. If the key is wrong, it will be troublesome.

This old door finally had a slight fluctuation, and some small cracks appeared on the door, and then it was pulled straight to both sides.

The three of them walked in.

The moldy air mixed with the smell of expired medicinal materials rushed towards them.

It made them very uncomfortable.

Shirley quickly covered her nose.

Qin An frowned slightly and carefully analyzed the composition of the air.

Galina couldn't smell anything at all. On the contrary, she felt novel here because there were many things she had never seen before.

As a princess of the angel clan, she had seen countless things, and many of the things here were things she had never seen before.

So she floated around and touched and looked around.

At first glance, this place looks like a laboratory, with various potion tables, forging tables, and material racks.

Qin An took a look and found that everything had deteriorated. It was obvious that they had been left there for a long time.

He could no longer tell what these potions and materials were.

"Ah!"

Suddenly, Galina screamed, attracting the attention of Qin An and Shirley.

Qin An paused and flashed over.

In a moment, he came to Galina's side.

Then he saw Galina, who looked a little exasperated. She kicked the skeleton.

It was a skeleton hung by a rope.

Galina muttered something. "I'll kick you to death, you want you to scare me!"

Qin An twitched his mouth, and then looked at Galina's little feet again. Aren't you afraid of getting dirty?

These hanging skeletons are not just one or two, they can be seen everywhere, on the chair, on the experimental bed, in the corner.

There were some notes on the table, but they had been deliberately destroyed and could not be seen clearly.

The further he went in, the more frightened Qin An was. There were more and more experimental instruments, and they were becoming more and more complicated. Some of them Qin An did not recognize, and he had never even seen them.

The space became wider and wider, with red crystals inlaid on the walls and glass bottles everywhere.

Suddenly Shirley spoke.

"Qin An, look there!"

Qin An looked in the direction Shirley pointed.

The golden steps were like long steps to the gods, connecting to a magnificent palace.

"I didn't expect that there were so many things hidden under the Simon Forest."

The laboratory and the palace were beyond Qin An's expectations, because he had no idea about these, and even in the previous life game, these plots were not explained.

However, Qin An had some vague guesses, Titan Giant Ape, laboratory...

Qin An walked towards the palace, observing and thinking at the same time. He looked a little stunned.

"What's wrong with him?"

Galina asked in confusion.

Shirley shook her head, indicating that she didn't know.

They followed.

"The predecessor of the Titan Ape was the personal guard of the previous emperor of the Magic Empire."

Qin An spoke to himself.

"And the previous emperor of the Magic Empire was also a legendary figure. He personally ended the chaotic dark blood age, but he also created a corrupt empire with his own hands..."

"Because of endless desires, he fell into the curse of immortality."

"So he looked for the best alchemists in the continent to make immortality for him."

"The experiment started out normal, but the emperor had no time. He felt that the deadline was approaching, so the experiment began to deviate from the norm. He was also obsessed with immortality, ignored state affairs, levied taxes at will, and used public funds at will..."

"Using living people for experiments, full of infectious sewage, and the Magic Empire, which was the experimental site, was randomly discharged.Naturally, they suffered. "

"An unprecedented epidemic broke out in the imperial capital. It is highly contagious, and the infected people will lose consciousness and become completely unrestrained monsters."

………

Qin An had unknowingly walked to the center of the palace. On both sides were neatly arranged statues, bowing one by one.

Qin An's eyes turned and looked in the direction of their worship, the figure on the top of the glorious throne.

"So, is this your final choice?"

Qin An's tone was a little self-deprecating and a little disappointed.

"Hide here and accept the hypocritical glory and wealth."

He said a little depressed, and then said a name.

"Xuanyuan Hegemony."

"Hey~"

"Who! "

Qin An's hair stood on end and he was shocked.

"Ah~" Then another sigh sounded.

Qin An's eyes were sharp and his senses were fully open.

But no matter how hard he looked, he still couldn't find anyone.

"Could it be a nine-star magician? I can't even sense his breath! "

Qin An thought. He remained calm on the surface, alert to his surroundings.

He turned around and signaled to Shirley and Galina to come closer to him.

"I have no ill intentions. I am just a remnant of a body that is trying to survive..."

Remnant?! Could it be...

Qin An suddenly looked up at the figure on the throne.

"Yes, just as you said, I chose the false glory and wealth. If you hadn't come, I might have been imprisoned here forever. I feel like I'm going crazy..."

"Since you are here, then you can get the key from Taylor. He... Hey~"

Qin An didn't speak. But he heard endless regret and guilt from this sentence.

The voice still rang in Qin An's ears. In the eyes of Shirley and Galina, it was as if Qin An was fighting wits and courage with the air, because they didn't hear any sound at all.

"Taylor, you are the one who left first, old friend. I regret not listening to your advice and letting you fall into the curse. But I will come to accompany you soon..."

"Child, since you know my name, you must also know my identity and deeds."

Qin An still did not answer him. As a human being in two lives, he was very sensitive and cautious about the scene in front of him. He remembered the plot in the novel in his previous life. He felt like an old man was deceiving a child and wanted to take over another body and be reborn.

What's more, the person opposite him might be Xuanyuan Baiye, who was obsessed with immortality.

He didn't care about Qin An's performance.

"Since you are here, it is the will of God. Come forward."

Qin An:...

"Hey. "

Seeing Qin An did not move, Xuanyuan Baiye sighed again.

The figure on the throne suddenly had a breath, and Qin An instantly felt an irresistible suction.

Shirley and Galina stared at Qin An in amazement. In their eyes, Qin An flew up out of thin air and flew towards the throne on top.

Qin An also looked a little terrified. He found that he could not resist at all and could only let himself be sucked over.

It wasn't long before he arrived in front of the throne.

Qin An could only see the figure clearly now.

A man in imperial clothing, with his eyes closed, looked majestic without anger, and there was a red stone on his chest.

However, Qin An did not sense any vitality in him.

Qin An suddenly glanced at the stone on his chest, and his pupils suddenly shrank.

Sage's Stone!

"Kill me, inherit my legacy, and you will become the next Void Mage. "

Perhaps seeing Qin An staring at the stone on his chest, he continued.

"As for this stone, take it if you want it."

Qin An was even more silent now, because he knew this might be true, and he really wanted to die.

Because the Philosopher's Stone makes the body immortal, but it makes the soul wander and displaced.

For Xuanyuan Baiye, perhaps only death is the best relief now.

"Perhaps death is the real immortality."

Xuanyuan Baiye said a sentence that moved Qin An.

At this moment, Qin An felt mixed emotions and was filled with emotion.

He exhaled, and the whole person seemed to be deflated.

Perhaps seeing that Qin An was not in the right mood, Xuanyuan Baiye turned to talk about something else.

"What year is it today?"

"Xuanyuan Qiye has been in power for fifteen years."

"It turns out that Xiao Qi was the last to ascend the throne. Even I didn't expect it. "

Later, he asked Qin An about the current situation of the empire. When he learned that it was completely unified and all under the control of the royal family, Xuanyuan Baiye laughed.

He praised Xuanyuan Qiye.

Then he introduced a spear beside him.

[[Virtual Realm]

Qin An certainly knew, after all, this weapon was notorious.

"Back then, I killed the beastmen with my [Virtual Realm]..."

At this moment, Xuanyuan Baiye was just like a close friend with whom he could talk about everything, not at all like an emperor who was once above ten thousand people.

Qin An listened quietly with interest, answering him from time to time. He was talking about things from the last era, so Qin An was naturally interested.

"I can see that you will become the nightmare of this era..."

"That little red-haired girl is the descendant of Salman, right? Back then, Salman had a bad temper..."

"Want my [Virtual Realm]? Naturally, you have to inherit my profession first..."

His implication was self-evident, and to inherit his profession, you had to kill him.

"What are you still hesitating about? Pick up [Virtual Realm]..."

After a long time, Qin An spoke again.

"Haha, nice to meet you. My name is Qin An."

Qin An took a deep breath, as if he had figured out a lot of things, and returned to his original state, deep and confident.

Then he picked up the [Virtual Realm] without hesitation and stabbed it towards Xuanyuan Baiye's heart.

The process was very smooth. The excessive sharpness of the [Virtual Realm] made Qin An feel like cutting tofu.

Xuanyuan Baiye's body visibly withered, and soon the loose clothes collapsed completely, and a stream of smelly water flowed out.

Qin An vaguely saw an illusory figure in the air, waving at Qin An, and then floating towards God.

"Qin An, I'm also very happy to meet you..."
