Chapter 1 The Abyss Gazes


Chapter 1 The Abyss Gazes

Golden fragments of light sprinkled on the table, the shadows of the windows swayed, and the soft rustling of pages turned could be heard.

[You looked directly at the taboo]

[To trigger the "divinity" exemption judgment, the minimum divinity requirement is "10", and your divinity is "12"...]

[Successful exemption, immune to this mental pollution]

Young Luo Xiu, or in other words, Luo Xiu, the only trainee priest at the Glory Church in Morningside Town at this time, was reading a simple black book that exuded an ominous atmosphere.

"Look at one more page, just one page..."

Luo Xiu whispered almost subconsciously, driven by inertia, when he was about to turn a new page.

Luo Xiu's heart suddenly sounded alarm bells.

He suddenly woke up, with cold sweat on his forehead. He touched his forehead and felt a cold feeling.

"It's really dangerous, just a little bit..."

Luo Xiu gasped with some fear, his heartbeat like a drum thumping in his ears.

What the young priest was looking at was a forbidden book called "The Sacred Book of the Abyss".

Luo Xiu understood that as a "priest", he should not have peeked at things from the "abyss" like this.

But Luo Xiu also knew one thing clearly.

——I will soon be hunted down by an evil association called "Blood of Thorns",

Although the "Book of the Abyss" in his hand is taboo, it is also a reliable method and weapon!
“Tsk, luckily I’ve seen this episode before…”

Luo Xiu rubbed his slightly aching temples with a complicated expression.

Behind the identity of "priest", Luo Xiu is a time traveler.

He just came into this world.

half an hour ago.

Apocalypse World, Fanor Continent.

Within the Nolan Empire, Dawn Town, Glory Church.

Luo Xiu woke up from a table full of books.

His mind was in a daze, and he recalled his previous experiences with a blank expression.

Luo Xiu vaguely remembered that just half an hour ago, he had led his guild through the seven abyss in the game "God's Destiny" and became the first player to kill the world-class boss "Abyss Disaster Dragon".

But just when he entered the Hall of Sinful Karma and was about to receive the version-limited reward "Sacred Code of the Abyss"...

The consciousness suddenly fell into chaos, became uncontrollably silent and fell into deep sleep...

When I opened my eyes again, I was already here.

Who am I, where am I, what am I doing...

I'm afraid I haven't traveled through time...

Luo Xiu held his forehead, and various absurd yet realistic thoughts emerged in his mind.

At the same time, what appeared in front of Luo Xiu was a game panel of "God's Destiny" that he was very familiar with.

But this is no game...

Luo Xiu was stunned for a while, then pinched his face hard, but he felt an extremely real pain of his skin being pulled.

...Luo Xiu realized in a daze that he might, might have really traveled through time.

He just traveled into the game world of "God's Destiny"!
“……”

Luo Xiu rubbed his temples and felt a little headache.

"...Can, can you go back?"

"There's a bug, hello?! Can you hear the dog planner? Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai Fei-la-la-C.

With a glimmer of possibility, Luo Xiu tried calling the game system interface.

Light and shadow floated in front of his eyes, and a light blue system panel appeared in front of him.

【Traveler in a foreign land——】

[Welcome to the world of "God's Destiny"...]

[…] (…)
[Game settings] (gray box, crossed out)
[Exit game] (gray box, crossed out)
[Production team list] (gray box , crossed out)
“……”

Grass, a plant.

"...I'm DNMD! I'm the only one who gets killed in Sword Art Online?"

When it was finally confirmed that he had traveled through time instead of coming to this world as a "player" like in his previous life, Luo Xiu, even though he was a great player in his previous life, still felt unprecedented confusion and fear.

"So, am I a player now or an NPC..."

"In previous lives, NPCs would die if they were killed..."

All kinds of doubts and worries came to mind. After a while, Luo Xiu finally accepted the reality.

He wants to return to his original world.

But, it seems that I can’t go back for the time being...

Although he was quite familiar with this game world, when a "travel" plot like the one in the previous life novel really happened, Luo Xiu still felt a strong sense of sadness in his heart.

Putting the matter of "going back" in his heart first, Luo Xiu quickly adjusted his mentality.

"Let's observe it first." Luo Xiu thought to himself.

Fortunately, the player panel is still there. The red dot of the mailbox icon in the upper right corner of the panel flashes, and Luo Xiu subconsciously clicks on it.

Light and shadow floated, and a light blue panel appeared.

[It is detected that there are reward props that have not been collected in time. Do you want to collect them? --whether】

"……yes?"

Luo Xiu gave a vague affirmation in his mind.

【Receiving now...】

[Successfully received the "Sacred Code of the Abyss"]

A black, simple book with strange black and purple lines on the cover appeared in Luo Xiu's hand.

"..."Sacred Scripture of the Abyss"?!"

Luo Xiu's eyes suddenly brightened!
This is exactly the limited reward that Luo Xiu was preparing to receive in the "Pavilion of Sinful Karma"!

"Is this considered my time traveler benefit..."

In retrospect, when I received the limited rewards in the Sin Karma Hall, I passed through them before I could confirm them. The unconfirmed props should have been automatically recycled into the mailbox and turned into a red dot "to be collected"...

I always felt that my habit of thinking about red dots when I saw them might have caused me to accidentally make a mistake, but Luo Xiu still accepted the gift from the mailbox with peace of mind. fine! Luo Xiu follows the good deeds.

Regarding the newly acquired "Sacred Code of the Abyss", Luo Xiu, who was a hardcore player of "God's Destiny" in his previous life, remembers the official introduction to this book very clearly.

——That is a creation-level item that records complete knowledge about the fate of the [Abyss], and there is only one copy!
——That is one of the original starting points of this extraordinary world power in the background of the game, and it is also the original source of all knowledge about the destiny of the abyss!

The self in the previous life, or in other words, the self half an hour ago, spent a lot of money to pull together a crusade team full of high-level players, allowing him to complete the first kill of the "Abyss Disaster Dragon".

Completing the first kill is a prerequisite for obtaining the "Book of the Abyss". Only then can Luo Xiu be qualified to enter the "Hall of Sinful Karma" and obtain this creation-level prop "The Holy Book of the Abyss".

Originally, Luo Xiu had planned it. After getting the book, players and NPCs would definitely come to seize it. To this end, he also carefully prepared various strategies for defending the city and ambushes.

I didn’t expect that now, good guy, I would travel directly through time...

This means that he will no longer have any competitors, and he will truly begin to enjoy this "Abyss Sacred Book" exclusively, and will no longer need to guard against various possibilities from others in a short period of time!

The corner of Luo Xiu's mouth raised a subtle arc and he began to think about the future.

Luo Xiu still vaguely remembers that the players who chose the [Abyss] destiny in their previous lives were able to summon abyss monsters and release chaos magic with great special effects...

There are also the immortal and powerful Dragonborn of the Abyss, the night of death with rolling blood clouds...

The sets of "Abyss" skills are cool and powerful, but if you practice them to a high enough level, they are almost impossible to solve!
However, the disadvantage of the "Abyss" path is that it is difficult to obtain skills. After all, before version 2.0, the Seventh Abyss was an unopened map.

Until the arrival of version 3.0, when players can obtain power and skills from "Echoes of the Abyss", the fate of "Abyss" directly becomes the answer to the version.

But even if you open the map of the Seventh Abyss, the various techniques and skills of the "Abyss" are still extremely difficult to obtain.

It is precisely because of this that "Sacred Code of the Abyss" is the envy of almost all players.

Players who hold the "Sacred Code of the Abyss" will no longer need to spend time and effort to collect extraordinary skills for the "Abyss" destiny.

"Book of the Abyss" allows players to truly become the "King of the Abyss" worthy of the name!
In his previous life, even Luo Xiu, who was originally a die-hard player of [Glory], had the idea of ​​changing jobs after seeing the special effects and strength of [Abyss].

This is also the reason why Luo Xiu organized a group of high-level players to fight through the bottom of the abyss and obtain the "Sacred Scripture of the Abyss" at any cost.

But now, boy...

Luo Xiu feels that times have changed!

Unexpectedly, the player Happy Book, who had not had time to experience it in his previous life, would actually follow his mailbox and travel with him!
Thank you to nature...ah no, the gift of the mailbox!
On Luo Xiu's face, the expression of joy could not be suppressed.

While immersed in the beautiful fantasy of the future, Luo Xiu began to collect more information about himself.

The thought moved slightly, and a character panel appeared.

[Luo Xiu Durant (lv.1, ordinary NPC)]

[Professional skills (2/8): Elementary prayer (radiance, lv.1), elementary healing (radiance, lv.1)]

[Character expertise: Heart of Apocalypse (legendary, unique), Relict Person (rare)]

[Status: None]

[Little priests can be seen everywhere, only one step away from the magic stick. 】

[Internal beta start time: 189 days and 23 hours...]

"hiss……"

It turns out that instead of traveling with a number, I traveled to a whiteboard NPC with the same name as myself...

But this is normal. Whoever gave his surname Luo Mingxiu was a very common name in the East and the West in his previous life.

But this intensity made Luo Xiu feel a little sick. This was completely the template for a novice character.

Luo Xiu's initial first destiny is the [Glory] destiny. In "God's Destiny", different destiny represents different extraordinary camps and abilities.

To embark on the [Glorious] destiny means to become a loyal believer of the glorious pillar god - "The Sun Forger".

The tendencies of this destiny are "sacred" and "light". Only after reaching the second destiny can one officially embark on the extraordinary path.

Luo Xiu is quite lucky that his initial destiny is [Glory], because his game profession in the previous life, "Lord of the Wings of Light", is one of the advanced professions in the [Glory] destiny. Luo Xiu is very grateful for his promotion after this destiny. The route is very familiar.

However, [Glory] and [Abyss] are completely opposite fates. Originally, they could not coexist according to the laws of fate.

Luo Xiu began to suffer, but the distress did not last long.

After carefully checking all the information on his character panel, Luo Xiu soon discovered that he, who had penetrated the "whiteboard NPC Luo Xiu" soul, also had the limited specialty "Heart of Apocalypse"!
Open the expertise details panel, which is described in the introduction:

[A priest once awakened the "Heart of Apocalypse", but in the end he could not escape the fate of death. The "Heart of Apocalypse" disappeared from then on, leaving no trace...

It is a product that can accommodate all fates, and is a gift from the Ring of Apocalypse...]

The general idea is that it can accommodate the coexistence of originally mutually exclusive destiny paths, and if there are enough slots, you can also learn non-innate path skills or skills and combine them at will.

And since I have the limited expertise of "Heart of Apocalypse", that means that in myself, the [Glory] destiny path and the [Abyss] destiny path can coexist!
"It's absolutely amazing..." Luo Xiu admired sincerely.

However, although it was indeed wonderful to discover the expertise of "Heart of Apocalypse", Luo Xiu still felt that something was not quite right...

Suddenly, Luo Xiu's pupils tightened and his heart began to beat violently.

There seems to be this sentence in the introduction of "Heart of Apocalypse":

——"A priest once awakened the 'Heart of Apocalypse', but in the end he could not escape the fate of death..."

"..."

Luo Xiu's mouth twitched slightly, with a vague premonition.

From the countdown to the start of the internal beta at the bottom of the character panel, we can see that the current in-game time is before the launch of version 1.0.

There may still be players in the future, but at this time, the magnificent Judgment War has not yet begun, the Scarlet Moon is still sleeping in the shadows, the echoes of the seven abyss, the awakening of the ancient clans, the invasion of the fallen world, the arrival of the God of Decay, etc. Big events are still brewing...

The comfort at this moment is just the moment of calm before the storm.

And if the Bento Priest, who was originally dead, is still alive during this time period, there is only one possibility...

"This bento priest seems to be talking about me?!"

I’m coming back hot! ! !
The new book issue is tentatively scheduled to be updated in 4K, two chapters together at 9 p.m.

Please, please, please comment, collect, and read! ! !
