Marisa's ritual of sacrifice far exceeded what happened in the Forest of Magic, and many related people and events were intertwined at this moment, forming a net that could affect the entire Gensokyo world.

Underworld, White Jade Tower.

As one of the two most common organizations in this world for undead players, Bai Yulou has a very close relationship with Hell. And the owner of the White Jade Tower, known as the "Undead of Huaxu", is known as the "Undead of Huaxu", and naturally often does things that should be done as a force in the underworld.

For example, to prevent certain things from happening that are contrary to the principles of life and death......

However, today's Baiyu Mansion is very peaceful, and the owner of the building is accompanied by the court master and the patrol envoy Soul Demon Dream, drinking tea and chatting with a group of guests who have come from afar. Adventure 8

"Which one is this singing?" In a pavilion not far from the living room, a ghost player looked at the seemingly harmonious scene over there, and couldn't help but wonder and asked, "Hell has sent a request from the other side to send us to send our combat forces to stop the food ceremony going on in the Magic Forest, why does our landlord still have time to drink tea and eat snacks with others?" Foodies have to have a limit! ”

"What can you do without tea and snacks?" A player next to him, who was much older and more stable than him, smiled and asked, "Do we have a good relationship with Hell?" Is it worth carrying the Red Devil Pavilion to help them? ”

"What do you mean? Red Devil Pavilion ...... Isn't it here to play? ”

"Damn!" Hearing this, everyone around suddenly fell to the ground, and a female player couldn't help but scream, "Do you have a brain!" Those people in the Red Devil Pavilion are here to suppress this side and prevent us from sending troops! ”

"Huh?" The player who didn't know anything about the world was stunned, looking at the harmony in the living room above, and then at the companions around him who were sharpening their knives and preparing for battle, he was really puzzled, so he had to be cheeky and ask everyone what was going on.

"It's actually very simple: Marisa Kiriyu has a good relationship with everyone in the Red Devil Pavilion, and she is now performing a sacrificial ceremony, and if she succeeds, she can become a magician of immortality, but failure is a dead end. How could everyone in the Red Devil Pavilion watch her fight alone? A player with glasses who knew he was very talkative at first glance explained to him with a smile, "Don't say anything else, the Librarian of the Red Devil Pavilion, Pache and the second Miss Flandor 'Lu', are close friends with her like sisters and even lilies, do you think it is possible for those two people to stay there and wait stupidly?" ”

"Then why didn't they help?"

"The ritual of sacrificing food can only be performed with the help of a magician, and only one magician is needed to help. Because the ritual takes a long time, Pacully, a sage with less stamina, can only give this task to Alice, a puppet messenger with better physical strength, and the two of them are Marisa's best friends anyway, and whoever does it will do their best. ”

"I see...... So they rushed to our White Jade Tower, in fact, they didn't let Yuyuzi or Demon Dream disturb the 'chaos' ceremony, right? ”

"That's right! But to be honest, if Miss Yuyuko is really determined to make trouble, these people from the Red Devil Pavilion alone may not be able to stop her......"

"But then there will be a fight." A player next to him said, "I'm not sure if the landlord can win, but I can bet with my head that if they fight, the White Jade Building will definitely turn into ruins!" ”

"It's impossible to fight." Another player interjected, "Have you forgotten the look on our Guardian Captain's face when he heard this?" Don't look at the fact that we are theoretically in the same league as Hell, but if we really need to use knives, most of Youmeng's White Mansion Twin Swords will cut down those Hell assassins who go to make troubleβ€”she has a good relationship with Marisa! ”

"That black and white man is really good...... someone muttered angrily, "the good cabbage has made the pig arch ......"

"If you're not satisfied, you can go over and make trouble yourself, anyway, the messenger from hell is down the stairs, as long as you pass its test, you can accept the task at any time to interfere with the ritual of sacrificing food." The player with the glasses pushed his glasses and smiled, "But I have to warn you, the Lord of the Magic Tower is stuck in the way out, if you think you can win against the intergalactic terrorist who blew the stars to pieces, go ahead!" ”

The deeply resentful player looked at the harmonious living room, and then looked at the terrifying scene of sword energy overflowing with magic near the entrance of the White Jade Building in the distance, and finally shook his head.

"I'm not stupid! Why bother to get along with our landlord and the captain of the guard for a mere breath...... And look at the fight over there so fiercely, now it's equivalent to death......"

"yes...... If you don't have eight-star strength, don't get involved in this matter! ”

"That's it, let's let the Japanese swordsman test the water by himself......"

"Speaking of which, I'm curious, who can win against the 'Sword of Nothing' against the 'Lord of the Chaos Demon Tower'?" Adventure 8

"yes, I'm curious!"

Speaking of this topic, everyone couldn't help but turn their heads to look at the exit of the White Jade Tower leading to the world, looking at the battlefield where the battle was raging.

"It deserves to be the 'sword that does not cut anything'! I can't believe that even a monster that is immune to physical attacks can't stop you with a sword! In the battlefield that was covered by the storm and the light of the sword, Xiao Moran was sincerely admiring, "Dongliu, I haven't seen you for a while, your strength has really improved by leaps and bounds!" ”

"It's nothing, it's just a sword." Dressed in a Japanese-style Taoist robe and carrying a golden-colored wooden knife, Dongliuxing stood calmly in the midst of the magic torrent comparable to a tornado, and the wind blew his clothes and hair flying, but it couldn't make him shake the slightest, "Actually, I'm more surprised than you." A magician can fight as well as a swordsman like me at this distance, and you're such a freak! ”

Behind the two of them, the source of great power has been revealed. Behind Xiao Moran was a gray-blue sea of light, and countless resentful ghosts could be seen wandering in the "sea water", letting out a sharp howl from time to time; Behind the eastward meteor is a fiery red, and in the blazing flames, you can clearly see a big bird with golden "color" and gorgeous feathers flying.

This is the source of the power they each have built, Xiao Moran's "Sea of Resentment" and the "Goldenfinch King" of the Eastern Meteor.

These two people are both well-known top masters in Gensokyo, they have fought and cooperated, but since they were promoted to the seventh star, they have been busy with each other, and they have never met again. Now that both of them have risen to the eighth star and built their own sources of power, they are also very curious about each other......

Of course, it's just curiosity. If it weren't for the hostility of each other's positions this time, they wouldn't have been able to fight just out of curiosity.

…… Well, maybe......

Gensokyo players belong to different organizations, and their own organizations can often be linked to one or a group of NPCs, which is a unique feature of this world - here, almost every NPC has one or several player organizations behind them, some of them are strong and some are weak, but they have a common feature - they are all very cohesive, and it is not an exaggeration to describe them as "all as one".

Because of this, once two NPCs fight, it often turns into a war between those organizations that are closely related to them; And if the battle is not between two NPCs, but between two forces, the scale of the war can be quite large.

Marisa's sacrificial ritual is very important, involving more than twenty NPCs and several forces - mainly Marisa, who is nicknamed the "King of Gensokyo's Harem", has a wide range of friends, both friends and enemies.

If it is customary, let the forces behind these NPCs go into battle unhindered...... That could turn into a massive battle that would engulf the entire Gensokyo, even bigger than the scuffle that took place after Reimu vs. Remilia!

Of course, the Adventure Operations Bureau will not let this happen, how can the Gensokyo world, which has always been known for its harmony and love, become a world of war! So they made a timely restriction - except for the player organization that directly belongs to Marisa Kiriyu, players from other organizations can only receive relevant tasks if they pass the test set by the NPC that released the mission, and what they do can have an impact on the development of the plot.

It is said that the difficulty of the test is not fixed, but so far it seems that only eight-star players have been able to pass these tests, and the rest have been eliminated even by the seven-star peak masters.

In this way, the scale of the war was greatly reduced, from a situation where there might have been a chaotic battle everywhere to a situation in which the masters fought everywhere and the rest of the people watched.

Eastern Meteor is a member of the "Monster Hunter" organization under Bai Yulou, and is the strongest master in several organizations under Bai Yulou, this time Bai Yulou received a commission from the upper echelons of the underworld, even if the two leaders were stopped by the group of people in the Red Devil Pavilion and could not be dispatched, at least one or two people had to be sent, so he received the task of Bai Yulou's court master and guard captain Soul Demon Dream to represent Bai Yulou to fight.

However, he couldn't go to Cheng Peng, who was guarding outside the Fog and Rain Magic Shop, as originally planned, because Xiao Moran had already blocked the entrance of the White Jade Tower.

Xiao Moran is the leader of the "Chaos Magic Tower", a subordinate organization of the Red Devil Pavilion, and a disciple of the Seven Dawn Sage Patchouli, and owes a lot of debt to the puppet messenger Alice, and must work hard for them no matter what is reasonable. So he set off alone and stopped at the door of the White Jade Tower, not letting anyone who planned to make trouble pass through!

Dongliu Xingchen didn't intend to sell too much strength to hell, but when he saw Xiao Moran blocking the door, he came to his senses, and he fought with Xiao Moran without saying a word - it just so happened that Xiao Moran's thoughts were similar to him!

So this vicious battle unfolded at the place where the white jade building led to the world, and the battle was vigorous.

Around this time, similar battles were taking place in many parts of Gensokyo...... Adventure 8

"You guys just live underground! Don't climb up for me! A large man made of flames shook his fist, burning a large area of the ground directly into a mirror as smooth as glass, "Look up at the sky, look up at the sky!" Don't cause trouble to others! ”

This flame giant is called Aeoria, a Greek, and belongs to the "Xianglintang Takeaway Department". As his subordinate, Ioria naturally spares up all his efforts to work hard for his boss - so he went straight to the tunnel leading to the human world in the Earth Spirit Temple, which is subordinate to Hell, and stopped a demon player with a big horn on his forehead, a tiger skin suit, and a big axe.

The Oni player's name is Kukiri, a rare Japanese with a one-character surname and last name, and an avid oriental chef - though he's a staunch fatalist who has always believed that Marisa should die to be perfect...... Obviously, there is an irreconcilable contradiction between Heche and Aeoria!

The red flames on the flame giant's body reflected the sky red, and the fierce wind unleashed by the demon's axe cracked the ground piece by piece, and the two of them fought viciously at the junction between the Earth Spirit Temple, which originally belonged to the main transportation route, and the human world.

There are many similar situations, and as the ritual of sacrificing food gradually enters the most critical moment, the forces for and against are also emerging. For a while, almost all the eight-star masters in Gensokyo were involved in this war in which only they participated, and even many eight-star masters who were active in other worlds rushed back.

There are already people on the forum who have counted the battle situation everywhere, and under the name of "the first war in the history of the Great Adventure that is composed entirely of the best masters", the "sex" of this big battle has been determined.

…… But no one on the forum knew that the part of the whole incident that had the greatest impact was quietly unfolding......

"Cheng Peng has completely attracted the attention of the other party, and the envoys sent by the underworld now take him as the target of their priority attack, and he has persisted until now." The white-haired, bespectacled young man said to the man sitting across the table who was also wearing glasses, with a temperament somewhat similar to his own, but holding a beer can instead of a teacup in his hand, "He has done a very good job, even more than I imagined!" ”

The man looked at the owner of the Xianglin Hall, smiled, and did not answer.

"You've been thinking about it for so long, it's time to give me an answer!"

"What answer do you want?" The man spoke, "What do you want me to do?" ”

"You should ask yourself this question!" Mori Kinrinnosuke couldn't help but complain, "Please don't just say 'I'm very satisfied with the development of this world' and just leave it alone!" Even if you're not motivated right now, it's always okay to take some time to design something after drinking beer every day. ”

"That's not good, the world should go on its own trajectory. Don't you think it's too much if I 'mess around' and 'meddle' in my hands? ”

"What's going on now! If you look at it any longer, it would be too much! Rinnosuke was so anxious that he didn't care about etiquette at all, "Are you going to watch Marisa die?" ”

"Isn't this a sacrificial ceremony......

"Even if the preparation is sufficient, the sacrificial ceremony has less than a 30% chance of success, let alone a forced ride in a hurry...... The possibility of success is very small! If it weren't for Cheng Peng's constant resistance to the assassins of the underworld, if it weren't for the fact that my side had been using the seven-star lantern to renew her life, the ritual would have failed a long time ago! ”

"It's fate...... too"

"You shouldn't say that! Isn't it up to you to decide our fate! Rinnosuke was almost furious, "Did you design me to come out, and designed Marisa to be raised by me, so that I could watch her die before me?" Could it be that you have lived comfortably for so long that you have forgotten your original intention? ”

The unknown man was silent, and after a long moment he sighed: "You're right...... I did forget a lot of important things. I've become a lot lazy since the Datong World......"

A small smile appeared on his face, and he pulled out a thin book.

"It's a pity that it's not finished yet, I don't know if the Adventure Operations Bureau will give me this face......" he said, flicking his fingers, and the book, which hadn't even been painted on the cover, turned into a streamer and flew out.

The waiting time is always long, and I don't know how long it took, another streamer flew in from the outside and landed in the house to transform into a girl in a suit uniform.

"Hello, I'm GM040, and the Big Adventure Operations Bureau has just received your new book manuscript, is this your scheduled plot development?" She asked the man who was playing with the beer can, solemnly.

The man nodded: "I plan to launch it by the end of the year." ”

"Understood, we'll respect your settings first." gm040 nodded in acknowledgement, then turned into a streamer and flew away again.

"That's it." The man, who was very calm in front of NPCs and GMs, opened the beer can, "Her ritual will be successful." ”

"Thank you very much!"

"If you want to be grateful, you should be grateful to those who have made the ritual a failure until now." The man smiled and held up the beer can, "If it weren't for their efforts, even I wouldn't have been able to change the fait accompli." ”

"So, instead of Marisa, let's give a toast to those who have fought so far!"

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

Liu Xueji's death is a foregone conclusion, well, it was decided a long time ago when the ending of this line was designed......
