Chapter 17: Stealing the Gift of the Gods, the Genting Hound
One Hundred Thousand Weird Ways to Die finally started again. After not seeing him for a day, Yang Qizhou felt quite friendly.
It was this plot that left him speechless,
Reality fell into illusion again, and a giant face with nine eyes and thirteen mouths appeared in the sky. It made people think that the "Dream Hidden King" was coming, but in fact, the advance was not over yet.
A waste of feelings.
The text continues to scroll, prompting the explorer who has jumped back and forth between death and resurrection to come to the Dead River again, and whether to choose to resurrect normally or use the power of the 'Maleficent Crow' to return.
Yang Qizhou chose the second option, backtracking.
If he was resurrected normally and the fire-stealing priest completed the divine descending ceremony during this period, he would have missed the mark.
"Shameless explorer who uses plug-ins, you are back to the moment when you made your last choice."
"The vague and dreamy giant face appeared again in the sky, and unknown murmurs rang in her ears. Lian Na thought that the fire-stealing priest had begun the divine descending ceremony, and expressed her conjecture."
"You were bitten to death by a dog again, and you knew the truth. You acted very calmly and told her that the time had not come yet."
"Lena settle down."
"The two of you continue to move towards the residence of the 'Fire Stealing Priest' and arrive at the room where the evil altar is arranged."
"You see the fire-stealing priest standing on the altar, half of his body has been distorted and unreal, fish gills appear next to his ears, the reflection becomes more and more transparent, the figure becomes more indescribable, and the whole person has fallen into madness."
"He said he was not surprised by the arrival of you and Lian Na,"
"He also laughed like crazy, saying that he was about to receive the gift of the 'Hermit King of Dreams', that he would be freed from the suffering of flesh and blood, and that he would become a hidden being who could travel between reality and illusion."
"You saw Lina was very sad and angrily scolded the fire-stealing priest for betraying his faith."
"The Fire-Stealing Priest laughed disdainfully and told you in a gloomy tone that the Ancient God of Fire-Stealing is not a real god at all. He is just a blasphemous and incomplete thing, fooling believers to maintain his status, and the Dream Hermit
The King is the spiritual king who has existed since ancient times, and can truly protect the Firestealing Village from the unknown horrors in the wilderness."
Is the Ancient God of Fire Stealing not a real god?
Is he just a product of blasphemy?
Yang Qizhou narrowed his eyes, there was quite a lot of secret information revealed in this text.
However, it is not yet certain whether what the fire-stealing priest said is the truth, or whether it is a lie deliberately fabricated by the 'Dream Hermit King' in order to make him abandon his faith.
Just write it down for now.
The game continues.
"Lian Na was very excited and refuted the disrespectful remarks made by the Fire Stealing Priest."
"The nature of explorers likes to question everything, but it makes you pay attention to this information. After all, as an atheist, you do not blindly believe in gods."
"The Fire Priest lost his patience and commanded the invisible hunting dogs to attack you."
"You heard a dog bark."
"You were not bitten to death this time because Lian Na blocked the vicious dog."
"The fire-stealing priest saw this and praised Lena for being Potter's daughter. Even the family members of the 'Hermit King of Dreams', the Argentine hound that travels between illusion and reality, can fight back and forth.
"
"The fire-stealing priest began to chant the honorable name of the 'Dream Hidden King'. He did not take you seriously and thought you were trash."
Hey, hey, hey, it’s never over, you damn narrator.
I know that the character's strength is still rubbish at the moment, and can't even beat the weakest shrimp on the old land, but I don't need you to remind me over and over again, you bastard.
Yang Qizhou cursed in his heart and had deep resentment, but he learned the name of this invisible hunting dog from the fire-stealing priest.
"The Argentinian Hound can travel between fantasy and reality. It seems pretty cool."
"I would be so handsome if I could have two."
The game continues.
Yang Qizhou also quickly restrained his originally divergent thinking.
"You know that the critical moment to steal the divine descending ritual has arrived. Follow the fire-stealing priest and start chanting the honorable name of the 'Dream Hidden King'."
"The fire-stealing priest was very angry at first, cursing you as a despicable thief who tried to steal the 'god's gift', but then he laughed disdainfully and said that the divine descending ceremony requires an altar, a sacrifice, and an honorary name. All three are indispensable.
You only have the honorable name, but no altar, and you don’t even have the ‘holy relics’ sent by the gods. Wandering about the honorable name will only offend the gods.”
"The Fire Stealing Priest swears that after the divine descending ceremony is over and he transforms into a hidden life, he will imprison you in a false and real cage, and let the Argentinian hounds eat your flesh and blood day and night, and endure endless pain, but he will not
Kill you and torture you forever."
Damn, this is so cruel.
Yang Qizhou was completely shocked. He was imprisoned and could neither die nor escape. Wouldn't this number be abolished?
This method is cruel and terrifying enough.
"The chanting of the fire-stealing priest is over. He raises his hands high, waiting to bathe in the gift of the 'Dream Hidden King'."
"Your chanting has also ended. You know that the 'rag stained with the blood of the Great Lord' on the altar is no longer the same one, and you are showing deep ridicule."
"The divine descending ceremony is completed,"
"You find that Lian Na is frozen in mid-air, and her figure is gradually disappearing, as if her existence has been erased with a rubber eraser. You can clearly see the panic on her face."
"You see another pillar of pure white light falling from the sky. There is a blurry figure that cannot be seen clearly inside. He is more than ten meters tall, has no facial features, and his limbs are all twisted."
"You feel the infinite divine power coming. You can't help but tense up and sweat profusely. You dare not look directly at this noble figure."
"The fire-stealing priest's laughter became even more wild, but before he could be proud for a long time, he was horrified to find that his body was also disappearing, as if his existence had been erased by a rubber eraser."
"He shouted like crazy at the ancient and huge figure of the 'Dream Hidden King', emphasizing his identity as a believer, but the divine king ignored him."
"You have been watched by the 'Dream Hidden King'. This noble existence has known about your behavior of offering 'holy relics' and chanting the honorable name. Your piety makes the gods happy, and he has connected the roots of the two families."
The Hound's bestowed upon you,"
"You got the 'Hound'*2."
Yang Qizhou was no longer calm.
This is really what I thought of. Just now I was saying that if I could raise two 'Guernese Hounds', I would be extremely cool, but in the blink of an eye, I was satisfied with the 'Dream and Hidden King'.
Thinking about the hole dug for this god, Yang Qizhou felt very sorry for him.
The text continues to scroll,
"The fire-stealing priest couldn't believe his eyes. He couldn't accept the gift that was originally his own. It actually fell on the garbage thief. He cursed like crazy and didn't understand why."
"You showed a sarcastic smile and asked... Are you really sure that the 'rag stained with the blood of the ancient monarch' on the altar is the original holy relic?"
