I Became a God in a Horror Game

Chapter 555 The Lost Country of Gold

The moment Mu Ke finished reading the fairy tale, everyone's system panels jumped out:

[System prompt: Congratulations on unlocking the main mission]

[This is a country of gold that is paying the price. Please find the key item, the hourglass of time, and turn the pain of the country of gold into tears and hold it in the hourglass. Sacrifice to the gods, complete transactions, reverse time, and restore the Land of Gold to its original state. 】

"The hourglass of time?" Mu Sicheng frowned and asked, "What is this?"

"It should be an item in this dungeon that can reverse time." Liu Jiayi replied, frowning lightly, "...Reversing time, the effect of this item is similar to that of Captain Golden Dawn."

"Does it matter?"

"Skills are derived from the core of the player's desire, and props are gods, or system settings." Bai Liu rubbed his chin thoughtfully, "This is the first time I have seen time props in the game. and time skills, if there is a relationship between the two, it should be that people’s desires are affected by the pre-existing settings, thereby deriving similar objects.”

"Then according to this inference, the captain of the Golden Dawn, Georgia, maybe this country has some kind of close connection that we don't know yet."

"If this speculation is true, this may be a breakthrough, but it is also their advantage." Bai Liu spread his hands, "They must be more familiar with this map than us, for example, we don't know where to find this so-called hourglass of time now, and That Georgia captain probably knew that."

"But we are not completely clueless." Mu Ke raised his head, and he turned the fairy tale book in his hand to the front pages, "Although the hourglass of time is not explicitly mentioned in this fairy tale, it is a drawing of Fairy tale book, with pictures here—"

Mu Ke pointed to some pictures in the fairy tale book in the style of children's drawings: "It's about the time when God made a deal with the ancient Loren Kingdom a thousand years ago, did you see it? When the deal was established, God gave the king something. "

"This should be the proof of their transaction."

Bai Liu's eyes swept away, and his eyes stopped on the hand of the god on the screen——

——In the hand of God, is a delicate gray-black hourglass.

Meanwhile, the other end.

"The hourglass of time?" Chris looked at Georgia, who was silent, "Captain, since you are familiar with this place, do you know what it is and where it is hidden?"

Georgia was silent for a moment, before speaking again, Chris had no trace of her emotions, and was so calm that there was no trace of waves: "I know."

"It's just that the place is a little dangerous. Tell the other team members to prepare mental bleach and come with me."

"Mental bleach?" Chris quickly asked, "Is that a place with a lot of mental pollution?"

"Well, not only mental pollution, but also serious physical pollution." Georgia raised her eyes, "The hourglass of time is in the gold mining area."

After Georgia finished speaking, she lowered her eyes and looked at the fairy tale book in her hand - different from what Bai Liu and the others got, the fairy tale book in Georgia's hand of the [Golden Kingdom of God's Dependents] did not pay the price in a thousand years. Time came to an abrupt end, and there was no mention of the hourglass of time, but a detailed description of the process of the transaction between the ancient Loren king and the gods at that time.

"Father." The young Georgia raised her head and asked her father in confusion, "Why does my fairy tale book look different from other people on the market?"

- It could even be said that it was a completely different fairy tale.

The fairy tales read by children in the market are sweet and innocent, and God loves the world, but in the fairy tale book Georgia got, God does not love the world, and it is even a little scary, because the god smiled and said to the king, when the time comes, I will The pain will come to all your people, and you will fill this hourglass with their tears, or the pain will never cease.

The king at the time agreed, and he asked the god what kind of tears it would take to fill the hourglass.

God told the king that the hourglass must be filled with tears that can be worth the pain of a thousand years of gold in an instant. When the tears fall into the hourglass, the hourglass and time are reversed together, the transaction is completed, and the pain is stopped.

Georgia asked suspiciously: "Does this hourglass really exist?"

The king was silent for a while: "It exists, but everyone doesn't know it."

"Why don't you let everyone know?" Georgia shook his head in disapproval, "Everyone has seen fairy tales saying that God bestows gold and blessings because he loves the world. They believe that they are people who are favored by God. It's been so..."

"Happiness?" the king sighed and stroked Georgia's head, "but tell them the truth, tell them that there is an hourglass that needs to be filled with pain and tears, and besides making them less happy, there is another What's the use?"

Georgia was startled.

"In everyone's mind, Guloren has always been a country of gold that is isolated from the world." The king stood up on the edge of the bed. He walked out the window, bathed in the moonlight, and looked at the lush and peaceful country, disappointed. With a sigh, "This is a fairy tale country. Everyone believes that they live in a fairy tale, and they believe that they are favored by God, and there will never be a moment of disaster."

"That's why fairy tale books in this country sell so well."

"Even the fairy tales here." The king turned his head and looked at Georgia, "it will stop at the moment when a thousand years have to pay the price."

"It's not that I deliberately let people not know. I cut out the second half of the fairy tale to deceive them. The fairy tale book that was introduced nationwide at the beginning was the one in your hand."

The king spread his hands helplessly: "But the people resisted fiercely, they felt that fairy tales are not like this, and the country of gold will not be like this, everyone should be full of hope and happiness, and live in fairy tales forever without worries, so I The second half of the story was deleted, and this fairy tale was able to be carried out."

"But it's just..." Georgia shook his head lightly, his education made him unable to criticize the voices of the people, but he really didn't agree, so he frowned, "It's just..."

"It's just self-deception, right?" The king smiled bitterly, "Sometimes I think it's okay to deceive myself like this, and I'll deceive myself when I'm happy, and deceive myself that the thousand years will never come, and the gods will really belong to us forever. s country."

"But the thousand years will come," Georgia replied firmly. "Just as gold will come as promised, so will pain."

The king stared blankly at Georgia for a while, then turned his head to lean on the fence, lowered his head and muttered to himself, "...Georgia, your refusal to avoid pain makes me ashamed."

"When I became king, when I got the crown, I also got an hourglass."

"Every king of Ancient Loren will get a crown, but few people know that there will be an hourglass as the king's identity is inherited. It is said that this is the hourglass of time passed down from generation to generation by the first king."

"On the day I became king, my predecessor was about to die. He was tortured by the disease for a long time and was in great pain. When he was dying, I put the hourglass on his face and squeezed the tears hard. A drop was shed, and he watched with anticipation and ecstasy as the tear dripped into the hourglass."

"He longed for this tear to fill the hourglass and end the millennium's deal, but unfortunately, the tears that fell into the hourglass were like drops of water falling into the sea, without a sound."

"The last king died in pain and consternation. Before he died, he held his hand tightly and told me that the millennium was coming, and before the gods came to take the pain of the people, the king must put the hourglass Fill it up, that's our job."

"—[Never let the children who grew up in fairy tales not believe in fairy tales, this is the king's dereliction of duty], he told me so."

The king turned his head, his eyes were a little red, and his lips were trembling: "So on the night of losing your mother, I thought of this hourglass, I tried to fill it, but I shed tears all night, so many tears fell into this Hourglass, not even filling the gap."

"I started to fear this hourglass, and I couldn't bear the tears of death and the pain of the bereaved. I don't know what pain in this world can fill this hourglass."

"So I escaped, and I cowardly hid the hourglass in the mine where gold was born."

"After I hid the hourglass in the mining area, I started to have nightmares a lot." The king's face showed a visible panic, "I would dream of that god."

"He smiled and told me that the thousand-year agreement is coming, and he will come to this world, remove the shield, reduce the production of gold, and take our pain."

"Then remove the protective cover and reduce the gold production." The young Georgia showed an unreasonable calm, "We should not exchange the suffering of the people for the gold that does not belong to us, and wait until we get through this. After a while, everything will be fine again.”

"It's not going to get better!" The king burst into tears, he became a little hysterical, and his face was full of fear, "When there is no gold, everything will be ruined!"

"We've been sleeping on gold for a thousand years. Everyone lives in fairy tales. No one can imagine that gold can't be dug from the ground. At that time, everyone will starve to death and freeze to death!"

"I must find a way to fill the hourglass before the millennium comes," his father said in tears.

Unfortunately, at the last moment, the hourglass was still not filled.

Georgia lowered her eyes: "Go to the mining area to find an hourglass."

Meanwhile, the other end.

The inhaled dust made Mu Sicheng cough several times. He covered his mouth and nose and wiped the bulletin board of a building.

They are still running maps to gather information, looking for the possible location of the hourglass of time.

The good news is that there is no interference from the enemy, and they scan the map very quickly. The bad news is that there is no interference from the enemy, and most of them are going in the wrong direction.

But this dungeon map is really too big. Mu Sicheng is moving very fast, but even if he scans the map at full speed, he can't run to either side of the border for a while. He took the headset and moved forward. While running, he reports information to the rear, and he collects the information and processes it later, so that the scanning speed will be much faster.

"I saw a department bulletin board." Mu Sicheng's coughing voice became louder and louder, "Cough cough, I took it and sent it to Mu Ke, let's take a look."

Soon, Mu Ke's noisy voice came from Mu Sicheng's headset: "It's the bulletin board of the Gold Publishing Office."

"Gold issuance department?" Mu Sicheng asked suspiciously, "What kind of strange department is this?"

"I don't know, but judging from the content of the announcement, it should be the official department that manages the issuance and operation of gold." Mu Ke explained smoothly, "A total of three announcements were announced on this bulletin board."

"The first one is to regretfully announce that there are 57 mining sites in the country. The gold mining volume of 7 large mining sites has continued to decline for two consecutive years. In the past six months, the total amount of gold mined has even been less than one ton, and it cannot even maintain the operation of the country. "

"The second announcement is to announce the recent suspension of the welfare policy that every adult citizen can receive 600g of gold for free each month."

"The last announcement is..." Mu Ke's voice became hesitant, "Please wait a moment, this announcement has been smeared, I can't see clearly."

Mu Sicheng hugged his chest and snorted, out of the corner of his eye, he swept to the last announcement on the bulletin board that he had wiped clean--Actually, it is understandable why Mu Ke couldn't see this one clearly. The red marker has a lot of exclamation marks, densely packed, looking very emotional.

"I probably read the last announcement clearly." Mu Ke's voice was still hesitant, "but I'm not sure if I translated it correctly."

"The specific content of the announcement is that the heir to the royal family of Guloren (that is, the eldest prince) insists on promoting cooperation with the Heresy Processing Bureau, requiring the Heresy Processing Bureau to settle in the country of Guloren, and sternly claim that the gold produced in the mining area is heresy, and it will be against the heresy. People are causing bad influence, people are forbidden to mine privately, they are asked to stay away from the mining area, and the mining area is prepared to be handed over to the Heresy Processing Bureau.”

"The smeared words on it should have been written by the emotional people at the time."

"It's [Georgia traitors get out of Ancient Loren country!], [Heterotic processing bureau is here to steal our gold, get out of Ancient Loren country!]."

"[How can the gold production decline?! Has the other gold produced by the mining area been hidden by the traitor Georgia, return the hidden gold to us! 】"

"[Georgia goes to hell!!]."

After a while, Bai Liu's calm voice came from the headset: "It seems that we already know the most likely place to hide the hourglass."

"Mu Sicheng, prepare mental bleach, pay attention to the time limit for using skills, and go to the mining area."
