With Yan Yibing by Jiang Che's side, Ning Wu had returned to Guan within two months.
As Ning Wu, he actually felt very uncomfortable.
After all, his mission is to protect Jiang Che. In his opinion, it is more than enough for him, a peak king-level person, to protect Jiang Che.
As a result, after this trip, he quickly played a negligible role...
Moreover, he also had doubts about his own strength... Can I really protect Jiang Che? It seems... not possible.
"What are you thinking about? You are absent-minded." asked the master of Guan, who had his back to Ning Wu.
Ning Wu touched the bridge of his nose and said with a smile: "No, it's nothing."
The gate master nodded the back of his head and said: "The Gu Shen Pass has been declared closed, and manpower has been assigned to our side. I just asked about the situation at Jiang Che's side, and there is still no sign of waking up."
"The restricted area of life has obviously been closed, why haven't you woken up after three months..." Ning Wu frowned, unable to understand.
There are many examples of people falling into coma or becoming vegetative due to mysterious challenges, but Jiang Che shouldn't be scared like this. Could it be that he has suffered some kind of mental trauma?
Ning Wu, who didn't know the specific reason, made random guesses.
The pass master did not explain, but said: "We haven't found out what happened in the mysterious world yet. Poseidon has started to rush through the pass again. He wants to wait for Jiang Che to come back to solve it, but he may not be able to wait any longer."
"Ning Wu."
"exist."
"How long have you been at Tianma Pass?"
"Almost eight years."
"Eight years..." He nodded with the back of his head.
Ning Wu frowned, feeling that Master Guan had something to say, so he asked, "Why do you suddenly ask me this?"
"If I remember correctly, eight years ago, when you became the gatekeeper of Tianqian Pass, you had just become king-level, right?" asked the gate master.
Ning Wu sneered: "Yes, I was transferred here because I became a king."
Guanzhu: "It turns out that after eight years, he is still at the king level."
Ning Wu smiled stiffly, "He has reached the peak of king level."
Guanzhu: "The peak of the king level...isn't it also the king level?"
Ning Wu: "Hehe, hehe..."
After a while, the master raised his hand, and a shit-yellow thing appeared on the desk.
Ning Wu: “(((;???;)))”
"Guan, Guan, Guan Guan! This, this, this, this, this, is this shit?!"
Guanzhu: "(╬￣ Pan￣)"
"This is my forbidden forbidden object, the water of death!"
"This is the water of death?!"
Ning Wu's eyes were as wide as copper bells, staring in disbelief at the slime-like shit-yellow...golden non-Newtonian fluid on the table.
Although Ning Wu had never seen the Water of Death, the name of this forbidden object was like thunder.
It is recorded in the mystery that a terrible turmoil occurred in Tianma Pass more than ten years ago. Countless secrets infiltrated. Many gatekeepers tried their best to resist, but some secrets were still allowed to escape.
Facing the treacherous tide like a flood, Guan took the initiative to use a forbidden item called "Water of Death".
This is how the plot is recorded.
Zhou Ping, the master of Tianma Pass, used the water of death to darken the world and instantly swept away the tide. He used the power of one person to turn back the violent tide...
Surprised, Master Guan said calmly: "From now on, the water of death will be handed over to you."
Ning Wu: "Okay, okay...huh?! Lord Guan, you mean, you want to give me the water of death?"
He nodded on the back of his head and said: "You are already at the peak of the king level, and you are only one opportunity away from the taboo. Signing the taboo is as difficult as climbing to the sky, and getting the recognition of Taichu's will is elusive. Although the probability of becoming taboo with the help of forbidden objects is very small.
, but there is hope after all.”
"I hope that the water of death will make you a taboo smoothly."
Ning Wulin was stunned on the spot. He did not feel happy or joyful. His pupils shrank and he wanted to say something but couldn't.
It was quiet for a while, and finally the master was turned off again to break it.
"Tomorrow I will enter the Strange Realm and meet Poseidon for a while."
"Master Guan!" Ning Wu shouted with red eyes.
"Poseidon's power has been able to penetrate out of the Strange Realm. He is still breaking through the barrier right now. If you go in now, what's the difference between that and seeking death?"
"I, Zhou Ping, am taboo." said the master of Guan.
"But Poseidon is a god! Only gods can kill gods. Even if you are taboo, you can't use divine power like Jiang Che!" Ning Wu said.
"Ning Wu."
The master's voice became much deeper.
“What are the responsibilities of a gatekeeper?”
"Master Guan, I understand what you mean, but this..."
Pass Master: "I know I am no match for Poseidon, but I will find a way to stop him and buy Tiancha Pass more time."
"Because of the Divine Path Challenge, challengers who can use divine power have appeared one after another. Although the divine power they have obtained now is very weak, I believe that in the near future, in our Daxia, there will be a group of indomitable Divine Walkers.
!”
"Before that, what we old guys have to do is to buy more time for future generations."
"Whether it's a year or a month, as long as you can buy time, it's always good."
The master of Guan retreated step by step and came to Ning Wu.
There seemed to be a pair of eyes on the back of his head, looking at Ning Wu.
"From now on, Tianma Pass will be handed over to you...Master Ning Pass."
"..."
…
Mysterious world.
For some reason, Jiang Che felt more and more confused.
"Sister, why can't I get any official news about "The Secret World" until now?"
Jiang Wan shook her head and said: "I talked to the people from the Secret Bureau. Although "The Secret World" is popular all over the world, the people behind it can't be found in any country. In their words, "The Secret World" is like a survival game."
Viruses in the Internet."
"This virus created the "Secret World" and opened various ports of reality in a virtual identity. This is how points were exchanged for money at the beginning. This virus initially used money as a protective umbrella, and now it has opened up free transactions.
It’s even harder to check.”
"I can't tell you exactly. The official attitude towards "Mysterious World" is still official. I heard that some scientists have regarded "Mysterious World" as a product of advanced civilization..."
After listening to his sister's words, Jiang Che's frown deepened.
"The product of advanced civilization...virus..."
"Sister, you said "The Secret World" is so mysterious and powerful, why is it still being hacked into, causing bugs..."
"wrong!"
Jiang Che suddenly jumped up from the recliner.
"Maybe that's not a BUG at all, but a way for an unknown civilization to communicate with us!"
When he thought of this, Jiang Che couldn't hold it in any longer.
Sit in the game cabin, put on all the equipment, and close your eyes.
Jiang Che once again entered the mysterious world!
But this time, he was not in a hurry to take on the secret challenge, but remembered the text message from a few months ago!
