Rebirth of the Stars

　　As Ning Yuan took off the crystal ball, the system prompt sounded:

　　 "Congratulations to the players for obtaining the "Source of Frozen Ice", and the players have the achievement "Ice Watcher"."

　　 "The player gets the compulsory quest "Ice Mystery". Please check the log for specific instructions."

　　 "Congratulations to the players for obtaining the primary permission of Rebirth. Players can unlock the content of the primary permission after obtaining the primary permission."

　　 Ning Yuan ignored the prompts of the system for the time being, but carefully observed the human figures in the crystal ball while searching the archived memories in his mind.

　　 The ice-blue crystal ball with the size of a palm is very smooth and crystal clear, but the curled human form is shrouded in a misty shadow, which is somewhat indistinguishable. However, the general physical characteristics can still be distinguished.

　　 The human-shaped body structure and appearance characteristics looked like a human being nine points, and the skin seemed to be off-white, because Ning Yuan was a little uncertain because of the mist. Ning Yuan can clearly observe the difference from the human race in only two places: one is a human-shaped cheek with a row of four ice-blue long and narrow diamond-shaped ice flakes distributed along the shape of the face; the other is a human-shaped exposed. There is a ball in the center of the forehead like the third eye.

　　 If Ning Yuan read correctly, this bead seems to be the same thing as the "unknown bead" he had previously obtained. In other words, the 9 "unknown beads" are the third "eyes" of the human form in the 9 crystal balls.

"The source of frozen ice: one of the components of the combination of spiritual things. Collect the remaining 8'source of ice' to form the spiritual creature'frozen ancestors'. The effect of the complete spiritual creature: unknown. The effect of this component: put into the city altar It is possible to recruit one'Ningbing Clan' to sacrifice every 30 days."

　　 Ning Yuan only felt his head when he saw the attributes: "Spiritual creature?! How could it be possible?"

　　I thought that the most high-level purple items and props are actually the most mysterious spiritual creatures in Nieno? ! Even after repeatedly determining the attributes, I knew that items like this kind of directly given attributes could never be a systematic joke, but Ning Yuan still couldn't accept this reality for a while. The more I know, the more I can't believe that the rarest, most difficult to obtain, and most powerful spirit objects outside of the nine-color items of Nieno Continent can get into my hands so easily.

　　 Spiritual objects are equivalent to the spiritual treasures of the age of myth. Whether innate or acquired, you need several basic conditions: power, strength, virtue, luck, and chance. Forces, there is no doubt that huge forces have unparalleled advantages in intelligence and other aspects; strength, strong strength is the guarantee of their own safety and the acquisition of spiritual treasures; virtues, strong virtues can gain more potential advantages and increase at the same time The probability of obtaining Lingbao's approval is called "treasures who have virtue live in it." This is not a joke in the age of mythology; luck and chance are the most important and unpredictable factors in obtaining Lingbao. And even with all the factors, it would be extremely difficult to obtain Lingbao in the age of myth, even the easiest "Houtian Lingbao".

The 　　 dense road winds down in a circular loop, and then extends to an inexplicable distance in the middle.

Every seven steps on the wall of 　　 Secret Road, there is a lamp made of unknown material that emits a cold and strange green light. The information that the retrieval skills feedback in the fundus is only five meaningless words of "unknown lamp".

With bare feet, Ning Yuan made a slight "click" sound as he walked on the dimly lit and cold steps, but it was such a slight sound that seemed to be amplified invisibly in this quiet and far-reaching passage that exuded the strange aura, and generally spread to the distance. . Let the heart of the person walking on the steps shrink somewhat unconsciously.

　　 After walking for about 10 minutes, Ning Yuan felt a little bit cold in his body inexplicably.

After 　　 frowned and stopped, he checked the character panel but everything was normal, and there was no prompt on the log.

　　 The feeling of cold body is real. Just after stopping to check, Ning Yuan's feeling of coldness has become stronger. And it is obvious that this kind of cold is from the inside out.

　　 "I remember this secret road should be safe, right?" Ning Yuan muttered to himself, and began to recall the memory of this secret road in his mind.

　　 When he really started to remember, Ning Yuan's face suddenly changed. He couldn't recall any details in his mind except the impression that this secret road was hovering down and then going to an inexplicable distance and the concept that this secret road was safe. Whether it is the memory of "he" on the realm line about this secret path, or the memory of walking through this secret path as "him" in the dream. Except for the two inherent concepts that the general trend and the channel are not dangerous, there is no memory of any details.

　　 The ability of "Yesterday Twilight" is invalid before it is fully activated. How can it be reproduced without specific memory? But whether it was "him" on the boundary line or his own dream memory, he clearly and unmistakably told Ning Yuan that he had walked through this secret path, and he should have a memory of this secret path.

　　 However, there is no memory that he should have in his memory now. It's like the memory of the secret path of "Ning Yuan" of the two realm lines has been erased by an unknown and unpredictable existence. The two concepts of trend and safety are deliberately left behind for the continuity of memory, or they are deliberately filled into memory.

　　 But is this kind of thing possible? If it is the age of mythology or the age of Qi Xiu, Ning Yuan believes that what can be done is unknown. Even in the age of cultivation, there may be very few existences that can do it. But now is the fourth era, the era of gas refining technology developed by the afterglow of cultivation.

　　In this era of almost the end of Dharma, let alone the incredible existence that erases someone's specific memory silently, it is impossible to erase the memory in front of you. Even the basic cultivation methods left over from the cultivation age are few that can be successfully modified with the current vitality of the world.

("No. There may be a way to erase the memory or there is still there.") Ning Yuan, who barely calmed down in extreme panic, thought silently: ("There may be certain gas refining scientific and technological achievements in the coalition government that can achieve the erasure. The effect of memory, certain awakening abilities may also have the ability to erase memories, as well as some great or terrifying existences left over from the age of cultivation.")

("Qi refining technology can be eliminated. Objects in reality cannot be brought into the virtual world, let alone the virtual world game world. The bright life of the awakening ability can also be basically eliminated. Some traps in the maze are disposable. There are repeated triggers. And it is impossible to have no traces unless the system is refreshed. But is it possible?")

("This inheritance in memory should be a one-off. Unless it was'I' who announced it in the later stage, and then a certain strategy or record was seen by Huang Sheng who had similar abilities as me, and there was no trace of memory. Come down. But this possibility is too low. That is, Huang Sheng, who has the ability to awaken and erase memory and has the ability to preserve long-term memory, may exist, but the probability is too low, and it happens to have the memory here. The probability is even more infinite and tends to zero. With the character of'I', it is impossible to publicize things here.")

　　 ("Then there is only one possibility left. A certain existence left over from the cultivation age.") Ning Yuan looked up unnaturally, as if penetrating the obstacle of the mountain wall and looking towards an unknown place. There is the center of the entire virtual world and the most magnificent palace complex in the entire virtual world: ("Market Lord!")

　　 The virtual world is a treasure left over from the cultivation era that possesses both spatial attributes and soul attributes, and there are rumors that the virtual world may come from a more distant past, perhaps the Qi Xiu era or the age of ancient mythology. That's why it has terrifying power that people can't understand. Although up to now, people only know that the imaginary world has the ability to conquer the soul and evolve the imaginary world.

　　 Market Lord is the tool spirit or master of this strange treasure in the virtual world. Everything in the Void Realm can change arbitrarily according to the will of the Market Master. It can be said that the Market Lord is the Creation God in the Void Realm.

　　 So if the market owner can erase or tamper with a person's memory in the virtual world, Ning Yuan would not be surprised or surprised.

　　 Some people may question: why knowing that the imaginary world and the market owner have the risk of almost destroying and dominating the stars and creatures, they need to establish a link with each other to enter the imaginary world.

　　 In fact, the stars and spirits do not have the right to choose in front of the market owner.

　　 The virtual world itself possesses the ability to conquer the soul. When the stars and scientists activate the virtual world, everything is irreversible. At least Ning Yuan's realm line and other realm lines that have chosen to activate the virtual realm have inevitably established contact with the market owner.

　　 Market Lord was not only the master of the virtual world from the moment it was activated, but also became the master of the stars at the same time. Because he can be said to be the "god" of this world. Under the will of God, all the creatures of the stars could not resist.

　　 Fortunately, at least more than 200 years from the emergence of the virtual world, the market owner can be regarded as a good god. Not only has the level of science and technology of the stars been greatly improved, but the actual war has been completely eliminated, the global unity of the stars has been completed, and all the intelligent creatures of the stars have gained peace and prosperity. Although the gap between the rich and the poor and a certain degree of racial discrimination still exist, no one will feel unable to live anymore. Therefore, almost all the intelligent creatures of the stars are grateful and worship the market owner, especially the suffering race like the Yuren tribe.

And the market owner who pushed the stars into the era of virtual gas refining technology allows the races of the stars to still maintain the blood genes of violence, killing and combat, so that all intelligent creatures have the place to vent their lives without worrying about the danger of their lives— -"Virtual Zone Game World".

　　 For the creatures of the stars, there is nothing unsatisfactory about the stars under the rule of the market master.

　　 After determining that the market owner should have made the move, or that the market owner had endowed the "Rebirth" world system with the ability to erase memories, Ning Yuan basically settled down and began to think about the reasons why memories would be erased.

　　 You must know that if there is no special reason, the system will never be able to erase the memory of a player. It is the same even if the player is a Huangsheng with special abilities.

("So, there must be some special reason to do this.") Ning Yuan was rubbing his hands, running and jumping, trying to resist the growing chill, while his brain was running extremely fast: ("Rebirth" mainland is the owner of the market and The all-star coalition government is a testing ground for regenerating new races. If it is not wrong, the new races basically have the basic conditions for metamorphosing into the real world. That is, they have an independent soul. The actual gas refining technology reserves should also be equipped to achieve metaplasia. Conditions, otherwise the market owner will not deliberately evolve such a world.")

　　 ("The question now is which races the Lord Market Master is preparing to incarnate? Is it all the 13 native races on the Nieno continent or just a few of them or... none of them?")

　　 ("Is there a metamorphosis race related to my erased memory? Or is this just a setting of the game process? Or is it a rehearsal?")

　　 ("Dad seems to remind me not to reincarnate too many times. Does the increase in rebirths trigger the loss of memory?")

　　 ("Wait, this doesn't seem to have anything to do with my current situation? Don't think divergent! Don't diverge!")

　　 ("I haven't died, and my memory about secret roads has indeed been erased deliberately. With the power of the market owner, this is more like a hint?")

　　 ("Wait, what did I seem to think of just now? Metamorphosis race...all...a few...or none of them?")

　　 ("By the way, no matter in the background information and instruction manual of "Rebirth" or the memory of the boundary line, it seems that there is no clear indication that there are only 18 intelligent races in the Nieno continent? That is to say...")

"Maybe there are other intelligent races? Just like the hidden professions in other virtual zone games, there are one or more hidden races in this world? And the reason why my memory is erased is because there may be a certain hidden race in this secret road. The clues of the hidden race?" As the guessing thought progressed, Ning Yuan unconsciously muttered his own guess: "The hidden race may be the real metamorphic race, at least in the choice of metamorphic race. "

　　 Presumably at this point, Ning Yuan's eyes widened unconsciously, and his muttering voice became louder, and then the whole person fell into a state of doubtful and uncertain expression. The original action to resist the cold also stopped stiffly.

　　 When Ning Yuan calmed down for a while, he accidentally discovered that the chill that seemed to have been deepening had stabilized after reaching a certain peak. Although the whole body was cold and shivering unconsciously, the coldness of the whole body seemed to be really constant at a certain level.

　　 Then the system prompt finally appeared on the player log:

　　 "Due to some unknown reason the player has entered a deep cold state: all attributes are reduced by 50%."

　　 "Unknown reason?" Ning Yuan frowned after checking the log and the character panel. "Whether my guess is nonsense or not, it is certain that there is something in this secret passage."

　　 Ning Yuan controlled his trembling body and staggered and continued to walk down the secret road steps, carefully observing everything around the walls, zenith, steps and so on.

　　 trembling slightly while holding on to the wall for about 5 minutes, Ning Yuan finally noticed a trace of disharmony that appeared in the channel that looked at the same pattern.

　　 On the top of the smooth stone dense passage that has maintained a height of about 3 meters, a bead that enters the center of a certain stone ceiling appears.

　　 The diameter of the round beads is about 3 cm, and the color is transparent with a blue mist flowing in it. In this dark green environment, it would not be easy to find if Ning Yuan hadn't consciously explored it. .

　　 Although Ning Yuan did not feel the change in his coldness, he still consciously believed that the coldness on his body was definitely related to the ball on the zenith. This near-predictive intuition comes from everything he has experienced since his awakening at the age of six.

　　 "Huh!" After a long exhalation, Ning Yuan climbed up the wall with bare feet in the narrow dense tunnel, and without any hindrance, he pulled off the weakly-entered bead.
