Chapter 131 The desire to kill is rising
Chapter 131 The desire to kill is rising
Under the expectations of the players in the live broadcast room, Lu Xing fell deeper and deeper under the influence of the power of bliss.
When the mental pollution reaches a certain critical point, the challenger's prompt sounds in Lu Xing's mind:
[Challenger Tip: Severe mental pollution has occurred, and the protection system has automatically activated. ]
As the prompt sounded, the confusion in Lu Xing's eyes receded like the tide, and his eyes gradually became clear again.
The triggered purification system quickly forced the power of bliss out of his body, preventing him from falling into the endless abyss of desire.
The picture in Lu Xing's eyes also changed at this time.
Countless gorgeous figures turned back into pink mist and disappeared. Looking around, there were only other alien figures who were still immersed in their fantasies.
Lu Xing's perspective also affected the viewing experience of the onlookers in the live broadcast room.
They all cried out:
"What's next? Is this the end of the next plot?"
"Snap, very quickly, the happiness disappeared in an instant, and my excitement also subsided, and I just felt boring."
"The happy battle we promised is over now. It's really uncomfortable to be stuck in the middle."
"Where's the succubus? Why did my succubus disappear? I don't agree. I want to continue loading the lost scenes."
……
Lu Xing, who came back to his senses, also had a confused expression.
Just now, he felt as if his body was falling continuously, and an intense feeling of pleasure enveloped him.
But after the game prompt sounded, he came to his senses and realized that everything just now was a false illusion.
Thinking back on the stupid thing he almost did, he felt extremely embarrassed.
The most important thing is that there are a large number of people watching in the live broadcast room.
If he behaved inappropriately and was taken screenshots by nosy players and made into emoticons, he would be completely socially ruined in this game.
The previous series of emoticons had already made him a laughing stock, and with this incident, he would never be able to hold his head up in the forum again in his life.
He couldn't help but feel annoyed when he thought that he was still being teased by players on the forum as the most cowardly person in this version.
I regret that I shouldn't have explored in the direction of Fengbotan.
"It would be nice if the Colorful Mist Coast area was opened earlier."
Ignoring the still wailing comments, Lu Xing looked up at the golden gate at the end of the scene.
With curiosity, he walked straight to the gate of greed.
"Guidance, what's inside this gate?" Lu Xing turned his head with some curiosity and looked at the guiding water ball that was floating and following him.
[The mirror of greed, everything in the scene is like a mirror in your heart, reflecting what you want to obtain, but all of this is a false illusion, but in the eyes of the creatures controlled by the power of bliss, it is a real scene, and you can get real experience and feedback in every scene. ]
"Can I handle it?"
Lu Xing looked worried, obviously not confident in his self-control.
Hearing this, the guiding clone showed disdain on his face:
[Brother, if it doesn't work, let's just retreat. You are protected by the system, but you are so cowardly. If you can't bear to play, you can just quit. This is an open scene. You can leave if you want. No one will stop you.]
"Just go, who's scared?"
Lu Xing was a little stressed out by the word "cowardly" and immediately gritted his teeth and walked towards the golden gate at the end of the scene.
The road ahead was lined with purple thorns on both sides, tall and twisted, as if woven from nightmares. Each branch emitted a faint purple light, like the whisper of a devil, and was particularly conspicuous.
He walked through the thorny road, climbed the ladder to heaven, and stood in front of the golden gate.
After taking a deep breath, he walked through the thorn gate.
The scene before him was shrouded in purple mist, and Lu Xing's eyes became blurred again.
As the purple mist slowly dissipated.
What appeared before Lu Xing's eyes was not a treasure mountain made up of natural treasures, nor was there jewels covering the earth.
Ahead is a vast golden plain.
The early morning sun penetrates the mist and shines onto the stone walls. Birds fly through the courtyard and chirp. The breeze brings golden wheat waves, creating layers of swaying ripples. The busy and joyful laughter of the villagers interweaves into a harmonious symphony.
The world in Lu Xing's eyes is changing rapidly.
As the sun sets, smoke rises, a warm fire burns in the manor, and the warmth of family fills the air.
Time keeps speeding up and the seasons change.
In spring, the plains are full of blooming flowers, in summer, the plains are starry, in autumn, the plains are harvested, and in winter, the plains are covered with snow.
The old man's kind laughter also sounded in his mind:
"Welcome, adventurer, to live with us here, share food, exchange stories, and work together. I hope that this journey here will bring you warmth and excitement."
The scene before you is exactly the stop you long to reach on your land adventure.
He walked forward uncontrollably, sat with countless children, and told stories about his journey.
The scenes in these adventure stories are also created under the stimulation of the power of bliss.
"I started from the Emperor's Tomb Mountains shrouded in evil light, crossed the plains covered in yellow sand, stepped into the dense forests of ancient trees, explored the ancient forest ruins, walked in the dark swamps where death and shadows intertwined, and kept searching for the unknown... I have seen ferocious sea beasts lurking in the depths of the harbor, stone giants made of rubble, and cyber cities surrounded by mist... Finally, I came here..."
As the adventure story is told, scenes are interwoven and pieced together in Lu Xing's mind.
He had never felt so satisfied.
The scene of the Gate of Greed is far more lethal to Lu Xing than the Gate of Evil Desire, and it presents exactly what he has been pursuing all his life.
Here, he became a successful adventurer.
He has witnessed the bizarre scenes of the world and left his own stories in those scenes, but after each wonderful experience he will not linger at his feet, but will continue on his journey with the expectation of unknown scenes in the distance.
As the story was being told, the children surrounding Lu Xing looked at him with admiration, and it seemed that the seeds of becoming adventurers were planted in their hearts.
In just a few seconds, Lu Xing had experienced the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter here.
And he decided to set off again, heading to the next unknown location.
On the day of departure, he met a group of adventurers who, like him, yearned for the unknown.
Lu Xing, who had always been exploring alone, received a warm invitation.
Carrying a bag, wearing adventurer's clothes and a gray hat, the beautiful figure riding on a flying dragon stretched out his right hand to him with a charming smile:
"My dear adventurer, in this mysterious and magnificent world, your loneliness touches me. I sincerely invite you to join us on this magical journey to explore the bright starry sky of Butterfly Grassland, the mysterious outline of Moon Valley, the silvery sandy beach of Bright Bay, the Omniscient Library that houses endless knowledge... We will also ride flying dragons to conquer mountains, forests, and snowfields, leaving our names there. A heart-pounding adventure is waiting for us."
At this time, Lu Xing stretched out his right hand, with the corners of his mouth raised, fascinated by the woman's description.
"hey-hey."
He laughed subconsciously.
But at this moment, the illusion before his eyes became distorted.
Golden plains, cute children, beautiful adventure captains...the mirror that reflects one's inner desires was instantly covered with cracks, and then shattered.
All that appeared before his eyes were countless greedy and grinning alien figures.
The self-initiated purifying power shattered all the fantasies in Lu Xing's mind, and along with it, took away Lu Xing's inner perception of all these beautiful things.
Everything was as if it had never happened, leaving no trace in Lu Xing's heart.
Lu Xing felt as if he had just had a dream, as if he was immersed in endless joy in the dream, but everything disappeared after he woke up, and he couldn't even remember what happened at that time.
This is the power of purification.
In order to ensure the mental health of the players, each activation of the power of purification will take away all hidden dangers and repair the player's mental state.
"Guide, what happened just now?" Lu Xing asked with some confusion.
He still clearly remembered the scene in the Gate of Evil Desire, but he could no longer feel the beautiful figure in the scene.
But in the greed scene, he found that he had lost all his memory scenes.
In response to the question, the guiding clone said lazily:
[These images are obsessions for you. Leaving them will only affect your mental state. In order to ensure your mental health, the images are erased.] "So what did I touch?"
[Traveling around and seeing the sights is boring to me. It’s hard to understand why these scenes are what you dream of. It’s even harder to understand that you need to purify yourself completely to protect your mental health. But if you want to know more, you can watch the live broadcast screen recording. The scenes are recorded, but these scenes will not affect you. ]
After listening to the guide's explanation, Lu Xing had already thought of a possibility.
He has many pursuits in life, but there is only one path he dreams of, which is to become a great adventurer.
Go witness the unknown, record the unknown, experience the customs and practices of different regions, and comprehend the philosophy of life.
As for beauty, power, and other material needs, they are secondary.
This is obviously why he can't extricate himself from this scene, and the degree of pollution is more serious than the previous scene.
[If the Palace of Bliss is set as a level that challenges willpower, you will be addicted to the previous evil scene for a period of time, but you will eventually escape from it briefly. However, in this level of greed scene, you will fall completely, and fall and sink, unable to take another step forward. ]
"I'm not that bad, am I?" Lu Xing scratched his head slightly embarrassedly.
【Please watch the VCR. 】
The guide didn't explain much, but raised his hand to summon a curtain of light.
The picture shows the change in Lu Xing's expression after he enters the Gate of Greed.
When he first entered the scene, his expression was blurred, his eyes seemed to have lost focus, staring blankly into the distance, lost in some distant and ethereal thoughts, his eyelids half drooped, the world beneath his eyes became blurry and soft, with an imperceptible smile hanging at the corner of his mouth, hiding a bit of intoxication and yearning in his smile, as if he was gently embraced by a beautiful dream and did not want to wake up.
Gradually, this confusion was replaced by an inexplicable dullness. His eyes began to become unfocused, losing their former agility and brilliance, as if his soul was slowly being pulled out by some invisible force, leaving behind only an empty shell. His eyelids trembled slightly, but the emotional stimulation could not be reflected on his face.
The smile on the corner of his mouth also froze at this moment, becoming neither happy nor sad, as if he were a walking corpse.
Finally, this sluggish state was broken by a sudden silly laugh:
"hey-hey."
Seeing this, Lu Xing was so embarrassed that he wanted to dig out a castle with his toes.
In the live broadcast room located in the upper left corner of the field of vision, the barrage of comments inside are all mocking his expression, and there is even the latest "Explorer Intoxicated Series" emoticon package.
Freed from the illusion, Lu Xing looked up at the third gate at the end of the scene.
After a brief hesitation, he took a decisive step and ran along the road.
Soon, he passed through the Gate of Greed and the Gate of Evil Desire and returned to the Ladder to Heaven.
Then he went non-stop to the space spiritual pattern, and suddenly the space spiritual pattern burst out with bright light and teleported him out.
There was no hindrance in the transmission process.
This is also the open setting of the Paradise Clan for the space of the Paradise Palace.
All living beings can come and go freely.
But all living beings corrupted by the power of bliss find it difficult to escape the control of the Palace of Bliss.
Every scene inside will raise the happiness threshold of those who enter to the limit, causing the creatures who walk out to fall into endless emptiness and pain. The scenes of the Palace of Bliss are like a spell that entangles the mind and cannot be escaped.
What's even more terrifying is that the distorted spiritual consciousness will cause the creatures affected by the power of bliss to change their perception of the outside world.
The reality in their eyes turned into a false illusion, and they subconsciously believed that the scenes in the Paradise Palace were the real beauty.
This is also the reason why those creatures who can temporarily escape from the Palace of Bliss will eventually take the initiative to step into the abyss.
Without the protection of the purification rules, Lu Xing would have fallen into a similar depravity.
The scenes in the Palace of Bliss can easily destroy the happiness threshold of living beings, making it difficult for them to experience happiness and satisfaction through normal physiological and psychological activities. They will only become more dependent on the Palace of Bliss to seek happiness and satisfaction, forming a vicious circle.
This process of spiritual corrosion cannot even be repaired by any means.
The happiness threshold of an individual living being can be understood as a carefully designed inner dam that regulates the individual's emotions and happiness experiences.
This dam has a reasonable water storage and release mechanism to ensure that the happiness of individual creatures is neither too abundant nor too dry.
However, the scene of the Palace of Bliss completely destroyed the structure of the dam, and the flood surged out. Unless it was protected by the power of rules, there was no possibility of repairing it.
As the high priest said:
Stimulation beyond the senses, irresistible depravity!
The willpower of ordinary creatures alone is simply not enough to resist the corruption of the power of rules, and they will eventually fall completely into corruption.
After leaving the Paradise Palace, Lu Xing ran wildly towards the Caiwu Coast Novice Village.
I feel it is too embarrassing to continue exploring, because who knows what stupid emoticons will come out in the third scene.
……
Lu Xing's experience in the Paradise Palace sparked heated discussions on the forum.
Many players have expressed their desire to go to the Palace of Bliss to test their willpower.
After the live broadcast footage was continuously spread, the priority of the hidden scene of the Palace of Bliss in the players' minds instantly rose.
Compared to this, pleasing the ancient gods doesn't seem that important.
After all, pleasing the ancient gods is a job, but what the Paradise Clan gives is happiness.
Both men and women can obtain unimaginable pleasure in the Palace of Bliss, which is simply free happiness in the eyes of players.
Just as players were hotly discussing the Palace of Bliss, one player posted a post with a different opinion, which attracted a large number of players to participate in the discussion.
[After watching the Explorers’ livestream clips, I suddenly had an idea:]
Host: Great strength can bring about miracles
Contents:
After watching the live video, I still felt unsatisfied, but I found that everyone was discussing the joy of the Palace of Bliss.
What I want to say is whether we players can obtain a different kind of happiness in the Palace of Bliss.
For example, helping lost souls go to the Western Paradise.
What is certain is that without the protection of our player system, those guys have become completely lost and corrupted, unable to escape this extreme happiness. It can be said that their consciousness has been distorted into something like a demon.
At this time, they have weak desire to attack and low lethality, and are like powerless lambs.
If we go in, won’t we kill people indiscriminately?
I was watching the explorer’s live broadcast room just now, and found that many alien creatures with high hunting levels appeared in the analysis content.
In my opinion, this is just free sacrificial power and evolution points. After entering, you don’t even have to fight hard, and you can easily complete the salvation on the spot.
Does this count as doing good deeds and getting rewarded?
Comment area:
word麻鸭: Hahaha, what a unique train of thought, it is completely feasible to hear you say that. Killing all the way from the Gate of Evil Desire to the Gate of Slackness, how much sacrificial power will be produced... No, I have to set off now, my desire to kill is rising.
Scarlet Power: What a genius! Everyone was discussing how the white moonlight in their hearts would appear in the Paradise Hall scene, but you were thinking about how to kill with a swift move. Sure enough, the absence of love would make you draw your sword faster. I think this plan is completely feasible. Go have fun! I want to kill to my heart's content.
You are so noble: It is feasible, it must be feasible. Brothers, form a team and take me with you, we will go in and kill a lot of people, not to mention pleasing the ancient gods for now, I just want to go to the Paradise Hall to rescue the people and send these lost children to the real Western Paradise.
Human Emperor: No, buddy, can you wait for me to fall in and corrupt for a while before killing me? Don’t be anxious, I’m not happy yet, don’t make trouble!!!
Qianshan Music: QVQ brothers, please don’t be so cruel. The white moonlight in my heart passed away due to a genetic disease a few years ago. I want to go to the Paradise Palace to take one more look at them, just one look. Can you wait until I and the white moonlights are done before killing us? I’m afraid you will ruin the scene.
Dark Night is Coming replied to Qianshan Music: There are too many keywords. They? Finished? Little sister, your mind is too complicated. Obviously, you have been corrupted by the Bliss Clan. The situation is very serious.
……
The post published by the player Dali Chu Miracle provides other players with an alternative way to open the Palace of Bliss.
Soon, some players organized a killing team, came to the Colorful Mist Coast area through the portal, and headed straight for the location of the Paradise Palace.
Although there are no clear coordinates leading to the Palace of Bliss on the map.
But it can be roughly judged by the changes in the map fog.
The area explored by land appears as a long and narrow path on the map, and the end of it is obviously the location of the Palace of Bliss.
As long as they can enter the Temple of Bliss, they can start a different kind of happiness, and the process is comparable to filling a sack with money.
As for what the Paradise Clan would think, the players didn’t care at all.
In the words of a player on the forum:
The power of sacrifice is not important. We just want to help the lost creatures to be liberated. Go to the paradise clan.
