When Gao Yan woke up, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon. At this time, the sun was already in the west. The warm yellow light dyed half of the sky orange-red, and the remaining half of the sky was as clean and clear as a mirror.

The streets in the urban area are very lively, and countless souls have mixed and lived together in them throughout the ages, without any sense of disobedience.

The street leads directly to the gate of the city, and two statues of Osiris are erected on both sides of the gate, about 20 meters high.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Gao Yan suddenly felt a sense of dislocation in time. He crossed his arms and leaned against the door panel and said, "Does the Kingdom of Styx look like the best place for retirement?"

"It's not like." Song Beiliu corrected him: "Since ten years ago, the Kingdom of Styx has been the best place to retire."

Egyptian mythology has always been self-willed, with death as the ultimate destination, dislikes fighting and killing, and belongs to the Buddhist gods. That's why the main gods of Egypt have survived to this day, instead of falling early like the main gods and creator gods in other mythological systems, leaving only some small gods.

At that time, many players who felt that they couldn't go to the high-level field planned to stay in the Styx Kingdom, waiting for a green card, and settled here forever.

"Okay." Gao Yan pressed ten fingers, turned his neck and slightly sore shoulders, cheered up and said, "Let's set off for the Central Temple now."

Song Beiliu was already ready.

He said: "Let's go." The two walked together and set off towards the gate of the city side by side. There are guards at the gate of the city to check the people passing by, most of them are residents from other urban areas.

In the area of ​​kingship and the guardian god of the Styx River, the laws are stricter, so the investigation is more serious, but in fact it can be regarded as releasing water. As long as you arrive in other urban areas, the interrogation will not be so strict, and basically there is no need to queue up.

Song Beiliu said so.

Gao Yan is queuing at the moment, and there are four lines at the gate of the city, two lines in and two lines out. He frowned, thinking that the interrogation was so strict and he still said it was water?

The speed of the interrogation was actually very fast. Originally there were hundreds of people ahead, but after about ten minutes passed, there were already more than 20 people left in front.

Two minutes later, there were only three people in front of them checking.

Gao Yan and Song Beiliu stepped forward, and the latter took out his temporary residence permit from ten years ago, intending to take Gao Yan out.

As soon as Song Beiliu handed over the temporary residence permit to the guard with the crocodile head, he heard a huge bell ringing in the distance, attracting the attention of everyone passing by.

Gao Yan heard the guards and passers-by whispering, which probably meant that the bell was ringing from the central temple, indicating that Osiris, the god of the underworld, would have an important decree to announce. The souls knelt down together and worshiped in the direction of the central temple.

There were about a dozen people in the crowd who did not kneel down, including Gao Yan and Song Beiliu.

Before Gao Yan could think about it, he heard eagles chirping in the sky. Looking up, two eagles passed through the clouds, pierced the air like arrows, and fell vertically. His eyes fell on the weak citizens below.

The two eagles, one on the left and one on the right, conveyed the important will of Osiris, the god of the underworld: "From today, the gate of the Styx kingdom is open again, and the Styx kingdom is back on the playing field!"

"The guards and eternal residents guarding the Kingdom of the Styx, in order to keep the book of the dead that has been stolen for ten years, the second volume of the Book of the Dead, the Kingdom of the Styx will maintain a strict level of security from now on! Implement the most severe laws!!"

The decree ended, and the two eagles turned into clouds and dispersed in the air. At the same time, the remaining seven regions announced this important purpose one by one. From today, foreign players and the eternal residents of the Kingdom of Styx are in a rivalry and competition!

In order to preserve the dignity of the second book of the dead and the god of the dead, we must entertain foreign players with the strictest law and the strictest security!

Gao Yan didn't feel very good, and sure enough, the people standing there were all surrounded by guards the next moment.

The standing people showed panic and wanted to run subconsciously, but these crocodile-headed guards were very powerful, and the player who fled the fastest was stabbed by the spear and hung up.

Gao Yan whispered: "Those who didn't kneel down are really players."

Only foreign players don't have that much respect for Hades.

All the players were arrested and interrogated. Song Beiliu had a temporary residence permit, but it was ten years ago. Ten years ago, due to the theft of the second volume of the Book of the Dead, all temporary residence permits were revoked.

Song Beiliu had no choice but to show the real estate certificate. He had real estate in each urban area of ​​Styx Kingdom.

Gao Yan was stunned when he heard the news, what kind of hopeless development is this? !

What was shocking was that the guard saw that the real estate certificate presented by Song Beiliu actually recognized his status as a temporary resident, and did not include him in the player list!

Gao Yan gritted his teeth: "Why is there such a thing as real estate in the Styx Kingdom?"

The real world is already hopeless, why does the world after death still do this?

He must take back what he said was the best place to retire.

Song Beiliu: "Ten years ago, a lot of players came in, and some of them brought over the land and real estate speculation in the real world, saying that they wanted to develop the economy. At that time, I thought that one day I would kill my brother and come back to Styx At that time, housing prices were expected to soar, and I had seven or eight houses, so I could live well by collecting rent.”

It's a pity that I didn't expect to encounter the real estate bubble economy later, and the house I bought was abandoned for ten years. Fortunately, it is finally showing its value now.

Song Beiliu has a real estate certificate, but Gao Yan does not.

The guards did not agree to release Gao Yan, no matter how much Song Beiliu bribed, it was useless

.

God's will is above all else.

Gao Yan pressed his aching temple, turned his back to the guard and said to Song Beiliu, "You go first, I will always find a way to leave."

Song Beiliu shook his head: "If it was in the city of other main gods, I would believe your words. But this is the city guarded by Sobek. He is the god of kingship and guardian of the Styx River, equal to the general of the pharaoh. The city law under his rule The law is the strictest, the army is the most perfect, and the guards are also the most brave and skilled in combat, you cannot escape alone."

Gao Yan narrowed his eyes slightly: "Not necessarily, Sobek upholds the inviolability of kingship, so the law is strict. But he was the god of excavating and guarding the Styx River at first, so he attaches great importance to the Styx River. We spent a day and a night yesterday to transcend The soul body in the Styx River, before the soul body blocked the bottom of the Styx River, causing frequent floods in the river basins on both sides, and Sobek needed a lot of effort to dig out the silt of the Styx River."

"I helped him and solved a problem for him." Gao Yan lowered his voice and said very firmly: "Your and my deeds have been seen by the patrolling Eagle Head guards, and he can help me not be imprisoned."

Hearing this, the way Song Beiliu looked at Gao Yan changed a bit.

"I said, didn't you think about it long ago?" "No, I didn't know that the Kingdom of Styx would return to the game field again." Gao Yan said without changing his face: "I just thought of it."

In fact, he just inquired about the main gods of the eight major cities, their personalities and preferences one day in advance. And he didn't believe that Chu Suibi would just stay in the real world and do nothing, although he didn't expect Chu Suibi to use the second volume of the Book of the Dead as a bargaining chip to the point where everyone knew about it.

Song Beiliu looked deeply at Gao Yan, who had an open expression, but everyone knew that they were far from being innocent on the surface.

"Okay, I'll go find the eagle-headed guards, I guess I can find them at the mouth of the River Styx."

The crocodile body is the descendant of the god who guards the royal power and the river Styx, while the eagle-headed body is the descendant of the god of wisdom. They are usually responsible for aerial reconnaissance and patrol.

As soon as Song Beiliu left, Gao Yan and the other players were imprisoned in cells in the dungeon. Because of Song Beiliu, Gao Yan didn't have to stay in the same cell with others.

Afterwards, many players were imprisoned one after another. Gao Yan learned from other players that the Kingdom of Styx had returned to the game field, and the reward given by the game was the Book of the Dead.

Gao Yan couldn't help asking curiously: "What is your mission?"

The player looked at Gao Yan vigilantly, with a strange expression on his face, but he didn't speak again.

Gao Yan couldn't find the answer, so he raised his eyebrows and leaned his back against the wall, closing his eyes and resting his mind. After a while, he heard a familiar female voice: "I want to be locked in the same cell as him."

Gao Yan opened his eyes, looked up and saw an acquaintance.

"How did you come?"

Juli Hualing: "All intermediate players and advanced players can come in."

The guard saw that the two of them knew each other, and the number of cells might not be enough, so they let them stay together.

Juli Hualing tilted her head slightly, and looked at Gao Yan curiously: "Don't you know?"

Gao Yan spread his hands: "Actually, if it wasn't for the notification from the god of the underworld, I wouldn't even know that the kingdom of the underworld has been opened."

Juli Hualing: "Oh."

Gao Yan: "What about you? Also for the Book of the Dead?"

"Yeah." Juli Hualing nodded, paused for a moment and said, "It's also to find my sister."

Gao Yan: "..."

He still couldn't replace the eldest sister in Juli Hualing's mouth into Song Beiliu, the contrast was too great and he was incapable of accepting it.

Juli Hualing had a serious expression: "I have done divination, and I even asked Yu Xiaojie to tell fortunes. I think my sister should be here."

Gao Yan looked at the wall, then at her after a while, then looked down at the wall again: "Then how do you get out now?"

Juli Hualing: "It's okay, I'll replace you and me with shikigami later, and then go out secretly."

Gao Yan said 'oh', and then asked her: "Your black cat—?"

Juli Hualing: "Do you want it?"

Gao Yan: "It's kind of useful."

A black cat popped out from Juli Hualing's cuff, spun around twice before jumping onto her shoulder, the two were inexplicably alike, staring at Gao Yan together.

Gao Yan: "By the way, what is your mission to enter the Styx Kingdom?"

Juli Hualing: "Go to the central temple."

Gao Yan frowned: "And then?"

Juli Hualing shook her head: "Not anymore."

Gao Yan was surprised: "That's it?"

Juli Hualing: "No, but we only know that. Because we don't know what the next task is until we reach the central temple?"

"Aren't you afraid of cheating?"

"The Book of the Dead can drive you crazy."

The implication is that any danger is worth fighting for.

Juli Hualing touched the black cat's head, let it slip back into the cuff, and said softly: "Actually...the supreme god who dominates the game field made a bet with Osiris, the god of the underworld. If Osiris loses, he will bet on the Book of the Dead. The players are the pawns of the Supreme God, and whoever can help it defeat the God of the Underworld will get the Book of the Dead."

She looked up at Gao Yan with a calm demeanor.

"So, players want to know what the bet is. Once they know the content of the bet, the player is sure to win Osiris."

Gao Yan looked indifferent: "It sounds like the Supreme God has not benefited."

Juli Hualing: "Not necessarily." She hesitated for a moment, then replied: "I always feel that no matter the relationship between the player, the gods, and the boss

Regardless of the outcome of the battle among the people, the ultimate beneficiary is the supreme god who controls everything. "

"you're right."

Gao Yan's expression was flat, no changes could be seen, but the hand hanging by his side was clenched into a fist, his nails poking into the palm, trying to relieve the anxiety in his heart with the external pain.

Regardless of the outcome, the Supreme God must benefit.

Because Hades won, the Book of the Dead returned to the Egyptian mythology system. If the player wins, he may not be able to protect the Book of the Dead. The final result is that Chu Suibi loses the book of the dead, and Chu Suibi without the book of the dead will die.

This is the result that the Supreme God, who rules everything, most wants to see.

Players who are blacklisted are not as simple as laughing and cursing. They are really facing the murderous intent of the game field master all the time, either deliberately, or by directing and acting on their own.

Gao Yan slowly let go of his hands, spread his palms out and looked at them in front of his eyes. After a long while, he murmured, "So only the second volume of the Book of the Dead is not complete at all."

Juli Hualing: "What did you say?"

"nothing."

Juli Hualing: "When the moon rises to the middle, I will use shikigami to distract the guards, and then we will run again."

Gao Yan: "I think we can wait a little longer."

Juli Hualing: "??"

At the climax of the moon, the players who were locked in the cell used their props to escape, and several of them opened Gao Yan's cell door and fled in a hurry.

Juli Hualing raised her eyebrows, Gao Yan: "The more people there are, the more chaotic they are, the easier it is to escape."

"But there's no denying that now is a good opportunity."

Gao Yan shook his head, but did not speak.

Juli Hualing stared at him, curious about how he could get out of the cell, so she just stayed where she was and waited, and ran away without taking the opportunity.

The guards rushed over quickly. They arrived quietly, searched in a uniform manner, and trained in an orderly division of labor. They are completely a king's army.

Juli Hualing's pupils constricted, and before she woke up from the shock, she heard the eagle's chirping from the sky, and then the fires lit up one after another. Not long after, most of the players who escaped were caught.

And this time basically all of them came back from injuries.

Heavy guards came in and stopped on both sides of the cell, followed by a tall figure. That figure was a wolf-headed human body, majestic and domineering.

On his back was a sawtoothed machete, without a scabbard or edge, but his throat was sealed with blood.

Gao Yan: "Wolf-headed human body, the race of Anubis, the god of death. Why did you run into another god's area?"

Juli Hualing was glad that she didn't run out with her. She was only an advanced player in the intermediate field, but among the players who escaped just now, there were obviously high-level players. But when the other party was dragged back, his chest was covered in blood, and the scars that were deep enough to see the bones clearly matched the machete on the werewolf's back.

"Not an ordinary guard."

The leader of the wolf-headed guard exchanged a few words with the crocodile-headed guard next to him, and then came to the door of Gao Yan's cell. A guard next to him opened the door and asked Gao Yan to come out.

Gao Yan didn't move.

The leader of the guard with a jackal head and a human body lowered his body and looked directly at Gao Yan: "You are a friend recognized by Your Excellency Sobek, and also our respected guest. Sorry to let you go through a prison, you can now go from Get out of the prison and get a temporary residence permit in Sobek City."

Sobek, the god of kingship and guardian of the River Styx.

Gao Yan's expression moved slightly: "My friend found you, didn't he?"

"Yes, he found the ethnic group of the God of Wisdom. It happened that they were busy with work, so they found me and asked me to come."

Gao Yan: "Thank you." He pointed at Juli Hualing: "She is my friend."

The wolf-headed guard looked at Juli Hualing, frowning: "Sorry, she has no identity, she may be a foreign player."

The residents and guards of Styx Kingdom couldn't distinguish between the player and the soul body. The player panicked and was taken to prison just now. Of course, the whole country is now heavily guarded, and souls without identification will also be captured.

Gao Yan: "Then, my friend who owns seven or eight properties can still testify. Because she is my friend's younger sister."

Juli Hualing was stunned, and couldn't help but look at Gao Yan, unable to tell whether it was the truth or a lie to help her get out of trouble.

The leader of the guard with the wolf's head thought for a while, and decided to let the two out first, and then let Song Beiliu come to recognize Juli Hualing.

If the god of royal power and guardian of the Styx recognized Gao Yan as his friend, then he was equivalent to the god's guest, and he was the guest they should respect.

As for Song Beiliu, who owns seven or eight properties, even the gods would secretly envy them. It is impossible for a person who owns so much property in the Styx Kingdom to be a player with ulterior motives.

So if Juli Hualing had Gao Yan and Song Beiliu as her bail, then the guard chief did agree to release her.

Juli Hualing whispered: "Is it really me... my sister?"

She was a little excited.

Gao Yan had a slightly weird expression: "Anyway, just admit it!"

I feel like I shouldn't be able to recognize it. The gentle and amiable big sister has turned into a wretched and cheap man. No matter how I think about it, I find it hard to accept.

After they went out, Song Beiliu waited outside. When he heard the sound, he turned his head and walked over with a smile on his face: "I'm not responsible, am I?"

Before Gao Yan opened his mouth to speak, the wolf-headed guard said first, "I heard that your sister has also arrived in the Styx Kingdom."

"ha?"

where is he now

girl?

Just as Song Beiliu was about to jokingly ask him where his sister was, he heard a cordial and excited call—"Oh Naisang!!"

That familiar and painful honorific, even after ten years, Song Beiliu still feels pain in his kidneys when he hears it again.

Gao Yan was really shocked this time, his usual calm expression was also cracked, watching the chrysanthemum bells and milk swallows crashing into Song Beiliu's arms magically, twisting his body and acting like a child.

"Hua Ling finally found you!"

Gao Yan: ...How did you recognize it? Apparently the sexes are different.

"I won't lose my sister this time." Juli Hualing sighed while hugging Song Beiliu's neck tightly.

The beautiful and aloof girl acted so attached and affectionate--fuck, Song Beiliu wouldn't trick the underage boy into having sex with him, right? !

Beast!

Gao Yan looked at Song Beiliu with a look of condemnation.

Song Beiliu was exhausted and vicissitudes: "No - don't get me wrong, listen to me... Hualing is just too clingy to me..."

It's so unconvincing, I don't believe it at all.

Gao Yan conveyed the above meaning with a deadpan face.

Song Beiliu: "..."

They thought about the business, so they explained to the wolf-headed guard. The guard waved his hand and said, "I believe it. You are a pair of brothers and sisters who love each other very much. We all understand."

He believed it, and then left with emotion.

Song Beiliu was silent again, because he remembered the myths of ancient Egypt and the pharaohs of all generations seemed to have the custom of marrying brothers and sisters.

So the guard leader said "brothers and sisters in love" -- what does it mean? ! Too wretched! What an insult to him! !

"elder sister?"

Song Beiliu wiped his face and smiled, "G, Hualinger!"

Juli Hualing immediately smiled and frowned.

Gao Yan: Good girl.

Song Beiliu's face twisted ferociously: "Can you be normal?!"

Gao Yan perfunctory: "Oh."

He was perfunctory towards Song Beiliu, but towards Juli Hualing, he was a little curious: "Hua Ling, how did you recognize Song Beiliu?"

Juli Hualing was very strange: "Why can't I recognize it? My sister is so beautiful! She is gentle and beautiful, just like ten years ago."

Gao Yan looked at Song Beiliu, vicious, obscene and lowly, so the truth is that the filter of Juli Hualing is as deep as the Mariana Trench?
