...

​

Su Ming'an stood in front of the Central Library.

​

This is his fourth comeback.

​

He never imagined that there would be so many books in the Central Library that he could not find all the clues before five in the morning.

​

For the absolute success of the perfect customs clearance, he did not pass this location directly, but chose to start over and over again.

​

He couldn't let go of any clue.

​

Every time he goes back, he spends all his time looking for clues. Today, three-quarters of the library's books have been excluded from him, and this will be his last search.

​

He raised his head.

​

It seems like a steeple building that reaches into the sky, standing in the wind and snow, like a pitch-black beast in the night.

​

Just as he was about to enter, a female voice came from beside him.

​

"Don't go in, Su Ming'an."

​

The man called out his name.

​

In fact, every week, she would sit here and watch him walk in.

​

He turned his head and saw the girl sitting on the bench beside him.

​

He knew her appearance. She was Luna, the captain of the Yellow Rose Sword, whom he had met on the Att.

​

"I have been observing here for a long time, and very few people who have entered the library in the past two days have come out." Luna said: "It is said that the dungeon in it is very aimed at players, and even the strongest players may have an accident. You are the first As a player, you have a heavy responsibility, and I don't want you to die here."

​

Su Ming'an glanced at her.

​

In the week when Noel committed suicide, Luna was a member of the attack on Hualou. She used the forbidden magic gem on him, so that the white-robed man almost succeeded.

​

But in the following weeks, she has been sitting here.

​

Perhaps it was because Su Mingan left the wooden house ahead of time and avoided the attack of the group of people, so the group of people chose to give up the action.

​

After all, the core skill of this group of attackers is a flame explosion skill. If Su Mingan leaves the flower building, there will be no room for the flame explosion to play, and it is reasonable to give up the action.

​

Su Ming'an ignored her advice and wanted to walk in.

​

"Wait." Luna stopped him.

​

She stood up, and her tall figure quickly approached him. In her hand, she held a thin sword with a flickering cold light:

​

"Don't you remember me?" Luna asked.

​

"If you say you are a foreign student in my junior high school, or an exchange student, I don't think I have the impression." Su Mingan said.

​

She had to ask this question every week, and he was already a little bored.

​

"It's a pity." Luna sighed: "I just recognized you. I still remember the way you spoke under the banner in the school. It seems that you have changed a lot."

​

Su Ming'an ignored this guy.

​

He stepped in.

​

There are no lights in the library, and there are many books on display. If you look around, there are at least tens of thousands of books. If you want the player to search for a needle in a haystack, all the time may be spent on it.

​

He walked all the way with clues and insight skills, and then continued to rummage through books.

​

On the last bookshelf, he saw a book that was pulled out and looked suspicious.

​

As soon as he approached, he noticed a wave of undulating spatial energy around him.

​

...the teleportation array.

​

He finally found it.

​

[You are about to enter the seventh world, special copy, the treasure house of the royal family of Praia]

​

[This level is extremely special, please act with caution. 】

​

……

​

Su Ming'an flipped out the map in his hand.

​

He said, why in the previous week, it was obvious that he had not found the treasure trove when he got there. It turns out that this is a special copy that requires a teleportation array to enter.

​

The surroundings glowed white.

​

He saw a closed door.

​

[You have entered the seventh world, special copy]

​

[This dungeon is customized for the player, and an exclusive dungeon that is more difficult for the player will be generated. 】

​

……

​

He tried to push the door.

​

It is said that this is an exclusive dungeon that is more difficult for players. I don't know what problems will arise for him, whether to fight against some powerful enemy or...

​

"Ding dong!"

​

The moment his hand reached it, the door in front of him disappeared.

​

[The identity of the player is detected as "Su Rin", and the special copy will be automatically cleared. 】

​

Having never experienced the so-called extremely difficult special level, Su Mingan entered without hindrance.

​

Apart from the huge trouble, Su Rin's identity finally gave him some intuitive benefits.

​

……

​

The scene in the treasure house was somewhat unexpected.

​

There are no other players inside, it is empty, only some scattered corals, pearls and other objects. And a resource stone similar to the Atelier stone on the side.

​

There is a lot of dust inside, and it looks like no one has cleaned it for a long time.

​

The ground is covered with ash, but there are no footprints. It seems that no player has successfully entered here before.

​

Su Ming'an found a secret door in the treasure house with clues and insight skills.

​

He pressed the square brick on the wall, the secret door began to creak, a small entrance was opened, and inside was a piece of black hole.

​

Su Mingan bent down, and the watch in his hand began to shine.

​

In this dim room, he saw a corpse lying on the ground, and beside the corpse, there were gold and silver jewels scattered all over the place.

​

Even, in it, he saw the labeled potion that was said to be able to remove the effects of the siren - this is a big gain, as long as he comes back here next time, Nuoer will be saved.

​

He wasn't interested in the gold and silver, he just looked at the corpse.

​

This corpse has changed beyond recognition, revealing the bones. He approached the corpse carefully, guarding against possible traps, until he finally came to the corpse.

​

He noticed that there was a broken parchment in the rotting hand of the corpse.

​

The front of the parchment scroll could no longer be seen clearly. When he turned the parchment over, he saw paragraphs of small characters.

​

[If you can read this passage, it means that I am dead. 】

​

Su Mingan glanced at the rotting corpse next to him.

This should be the last words this dead man wrote before he died.

​

The existence that can die in the secret door of the treasure house, I don't know who it is.

​

He continued to watch.

​

[I don't know who you are, but I set up a special magic circle for this letter, and only non-royal members can see my words when they touch it. 】

​

[I don't care who you are, are you a native inhabitant who has strayed into the treasure house, a traveler who has returned to explore, or the next king who has seized this land? None of this matters. 】

​

[I just want to ask you one thing. 】

​

[I hope that you can permanently seal this secret door, blow it up or any other method. In return, you can choose any treasure in the secret door. Of course, if you take the treasure from the secret door without looking back, this is also your choice. 】

​

[Before dying, I want to write down some of my words. 】

​

[People always say that people will understand something before they die, I think maybe this is a lie. To this day, I have not been able to understand, is there any meaning to what I am doing? 】

​

[The story about me is very long, very long... There are also many things that I regret. 】

​

[——What is the way to protect the people I love? Sacrifice, Balance, or Hate? 】

​

【Exactly what is the driving force to maintain the survival of an ethnic group? And those who lost their beliefs and lived in illusory dreams, are they still the people I love? 】

​

[At the moment before my death, I couldn't figure it out either. 】

​

[In our blood, there is always a longing for survival, a longing for life, and even... a longing for eternal life. 】

​

[But after getting it, I gradually realized that this is just a shackle that binds me. What supports us, what encourages us, has turned us into a bunch of woeful coelenterates. 】

​

[I have experienced Praia's most prosperous and most hopeless era. Old, past, I have seen so many struggles and made the greatest and most shameful decisions. 】

​

[But I gradually understand. 】

​

[…Perhaps only death can make us regain our dignity. 】

​

[Before leaving, I once said to the young princess that no one is a born victim. 】

​

[However, when sacrifice comes, it is not because it is unreasonable that the victim will be spared. 】

​

【…】

​

[I have decided to disappear from this land, and I will die with guilt. 】

​

[I deceived the Pope and Princess Tulip, saying that I was going to sea to find a way to break the barrier. 】

​

[However, I just want to die alone. 】

​

[That person... that kid who called himself a soul hunter, when he attacked me, I didn't resist. 】

​

[When he wanted to kill me with justice, I did not argue. 】

​

[I am lying here. 】

​

[He seriously injured me and tore off half of the map in my hand. 】

​

[...But he probably didn't think that I just wanted him to kill me. 】

​

[I don't want to take on such a heavy responsibility anymore... It's already about to crush me. I have gradually been unable to tell whether I am the former Michael or the current 'Su Rin'. 】

​

[Let the kid who killed me, who called himself Kaia, become the next 'Su Rin'. 】

​

[I heard that he also has a wife, a son and a daughter. 】

​

[But unfortunately... at the moment he killed me, he had already taken over my responsibility. 】

​

[No matter what choice he makes in the future, whether he chooses to take over this important task, this will be his decision. 】

​

【…】

​

[...Who am I? 】

​

[I know the meanness of people, and I also guide their nobility. 】

​

[I have slaughtered the people I love the most and saved their relatives and friends. 】

​

[I have seen thousands of scars carved on the land of Praia, belonging to my compatriots. 】

​

[I hurt them and destroyed them, but inexplicably became a hero in their eyes. 】

​

【…】

​

[The gods in the sky, with the same poetry and writing as mine, with the same thoughts as mine, will he write my glorious name? 】

​

[How long will this sad and meaningless persistence last? 】

​

[If the Kraken is still alive, will she regret trading with me? 】

​

[If disaster strikes this land again, my dearest heir, will he choose to stay for this land? 】

​

【if……】

​

【…】

​

【…】

​

[So far, my blood is almost dry. 】

​

[You who see this piece of paper can make your choice. Whether you destroy this piece of paper or keep it is up to you. 】

​

[If you want to ask my name. 】

​

[My name is Su Rin. 】

​

……

​

Su Ming'an rolled up the paper in his hand~lightnovelpub.net~ mixed thoughts fought fiercely in his mind. After a moment of thinking, he took out the clue grid from the "fuzzy map" obtained from the Att. , and stitched it together with the piece of paper in his hand.

​

The two are perfectly combined, with no flaws.

​

After the combination, he saw the paper in his hand, which automatically floated up and pasted it toward the corner of the dark grid.

​

He followed and found a book in another secret door that was opened.

​

This is a translation comparison book.

​

On it was written a complex divine script, which was exactly the script he had seen in the church.

​

He opened the reference book, searched on the pages, and finally found the words that the gods wrote to him that day that could not be directly displayed as words.

​

Translated, there is only one sentence:

​

[Kaya, welcome back. 】

​

……

​

At this moment, Su Ming'an has already figured out all the causes and consequences.

​

The clues in his mind were connected from dots to lines, and he laughed.

​

As if to put the pain of repeated death behind his head, he laughed happily.

​

It's time to end.

​

He put his finger on his temple.
