Chapter 565

"Sister Xiye, this is a gift for you, please open it."

"Gift...gift?"

The sword saint girl was a little confused, then showed a look of surprise, and the stars in her eyes gathered.

"Since it is a gift from my brother...then I will be disrespectful to refuse it."

"Well, could it be a pet?"

Although I am not good at raising these things, I will definitely try my best to raise them well!

Thinking so in my heart, Xiye happily untied the ribbon tied on the top of the gift box.

She didn't need to open the box by hand. The moment she untied it, the four sides of the box fell down.

A boy wearing only pajamas emerged from the box and smiled brightly at her.

"Sister, good evening, are you satisfied with this gift?"

"Brother?"

Xiye was stunned for a second, and suddenly realized: "Yes, I should have thought of it earlier!"

"But, you actually said I was a pet or something, tut tut, I have to tell you clearly that this is not only a gift, but also a reward!"

The word reward instantly made Xiye's eyes a little straight.

Of course, she had not forgotten that when Lin hired her, she specifically said that she would use him as a reward.

The thought of this made the loyal girl feel very eager.

Her eyes, which were as chaotic as snowflakes, stared straight at Lin.

"Brother..."

"Ah, didn't you say before that you would be disrespectful to refuse it?"

Lin stepped on the fallen gift box cardboard and took a step forward, less than 20 centimeters away from Xiye.

Seeing Xiye's soft and drooping dog ears, she couldn't help but move closer and blow on him.

"Do you want me to teach you how to open the package?"

As a four-channel half-orc, Xiye's two ears were attacked at the same time, how could she bear this.

She suddenly went limp and couldn't even hold the sword.

Lin was about to tease this seemingly unattainable iceberg knight, but she never thought that Xiye, who was confused for a moment, actually "recovered" his composure.

Her burning eyes fell on the half-open collar of the boy in front of her, and the tail behind her shook.

"In that case, brother, please close your eyes."

"Hmm?"

Rin subconsciously closed his eyes and felt a softness, and then his whole body was surrounded by the breath of the sword saint.

Then... he was suddenly dragged into the battlefield of the experiment.

He thought that the girl would be the passive type.

Unexpectedly, she was so A? !

It turns out that Xiye is not only A, but also her combat effectiveness in the adaptability of the scepter magic device is positively correlated with her own martial arts.

This is the first time that Rin has felt pressure, and it can be considered a fight on equal terms.

Even if Emilia, the silly roe deer and Eve are added together, they are only at the same level as Xiye.

In the middle of the night, Rin felt a sore waist, so he stopped the magic device experiment and turned his head to sleep.

...

In the haze, it seemed that someone was gently stroking his side face.

The touch of fingertips on the cheeks and forehead.

Rin slowly opened his eyes and felt that he seemed to be lying on a warm and soft place with his head tilted.

The pervasive fragrance was refreshing, and he blinked his eyes, unwilling to move.

Suddenly, a chuckle came from his ear.

A gentle and mature voice sounded.

"Brother Lin, long time no see, did you miss me?"

Lin turned his head slightly, and saw the golden long hair falling, the extremely bright and beautiful face, and the golden eyes that seemed to hide thousands of stories, fell into his sight.

"Freya... Sister?"

Lin subconsciously said her name.

Freya smiled with joy, covering her face with one hand and stroking Lin's lips with the other hand.

That seductive posture made her noble temperament charming.

"I am relieved to see that you are okay."

Lin sat up slowly and covered his forehead in confusion.

At this moment, his brain was a little confused.

Those false memories suddenly disappeared, and only what happened after entering the trial space remained in his mind.

However, there was still no real memory.

"No need to recall, you will be able to get your memory back soon anyway, and I will protect you from such usurpation again."

"Well... So, sister Freya, do you know what's going on?"

Freya supported her side face and motioned him to lie on her thighs again.

Rin did not refuse, the comfortable and soft feeling would make people numb.

So he lay down again.

"Great, brother Rin is still as obedient as before."

Gently rubbing his temple, the goddess of love and dreams, told him.

"Dreams are one of my most important powers. There was no god in charge of dreams in this world. I applied for the right to manage them on behalf of others."

"Not long ago, a god in this world also used the second-level dream ability. I felt it, but I was attending a very important meeting at the time and could not come."

"After the meeting, I found this place and almost understood everything."

Chapter 97 It's over. My kidneys can't be saved!

"Wait, another god?"

Rin suddenly remembered that when he entered the dead city.

He heard the man who was suspected to be the Lord of the Dead City say that the gods had made a bet with him.

Could this god be the same one?

Speaking of which, Rin had previously thought that the only living god was the melon-eating goddess.

Freya continued to explain:

"Yes, I communicated with her for a while and learned that she was once the god in charge of death and souls, specializing in sending the undead to the realm of death.

"Because of a great change, the divine power has declined."

"It is also because of this that there will be more and more undead stranded in reality, until the dead city appears."

"The dead city is something that was created on its own after part of her power escaped. It has both advantages and disadvantages for this world."

"The advantage is that it is almost infinite in size and has no concept of fixed space. It will continue to absorb some undead to maintain the balance of the real undead."

"The disadvantage is that when the balance of death energy in the world is too much and is disrupted, it will appear in the world and bring disasters of the undead."

"In order to control the dead city, this god once used most of his remaining divine power to formulate various rules in the dead city, and then fell into a deep sleep."

Rin followed her words and was a little confused: "So, she also formulated the challenge of the dead city?"

"That's right. The essence of the challenge is to select the lord of the dead city who can control the dead city so that he will not stay in the human world and disturb the living world. Therefore, the lords of the dead city in the past were actually human beings."

"Originally, this was included in the challenge rules, until the current Lord of the Dead City appeared."

In Freya's narration, Rin gradually understood the whole story.

The current Lord of the Dead City is an alien. After being in charge of the Dead City for many years, he gradually gained some of the powers that originally belonged to the gods. He used this ability to change some of the rules.

For example, the reason why the rule of passing all trials and finally challenging the Lord of the Dead City did not appear on the stone tablet was because he had tampered with it.

The heroes who once appeared in the dead city and entered the challenge were not considered to have passed the level at all, they could only be regarded as a formality.

It is all because of the influence of the rules that the dead city will disappear.

This also proves that the Lord of the Dead City is not willing to be deprived of his power by others.

He had hidden all the keys he said he could find earlier.

Afterwards, the God of Death woke up and saw that he could no longer suppress him, so he made a bet with him.

This time, he could not interfere with any trials in the dead city. The trials were conducted according to the rules set by the God of Death.

If someone succeeds, it means that the current Lord of the Dead City has lost everything.

On the other hand, if no one succeeds, then he will gain the remaining powers of the God of Death.

The bet was established, but the Lord of the Dead City was still a little cautious.

The God of Death said that he himself could not interfere, but that did not mean that others could not, and the stone tablets outside the city did not count as the interior of the Death City.

So he changed the rules to an extremely difficult level and took advantage of these foreign players who took the initiative to surrender.

This is the truth about the dead city.

Rin felt that this god of death dared to make such a big bet, and he probably knew that he, the hero, and Elise had a great chance of winning.

Speaking of which, the goddess of creation who replaced Lin Wuyue didn't feel like she had much rights.

As a supervisor, isn't this kind of thing within her jurisdiction?

Rin just frowned, and gently smoothed it for him with her slender and tender fingers.

"Why are you frowning? I don't want to see brother Rin in distress."

Rin suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

This goddess sister speaks so directly, and every word she says is a bit disgusting.

"Anyway, what I experienced before was indeed a dream."

Freya narrowed her eyes and took out an extra book in her hand.

That was exactly the book Rin found in the bookstore a few days ago, a book about dreams and souls.

"Yes, the two have something in common. Being able to control the power of the soul can naturally create dreams."

Speaking of this, Freya poked his forehead dissatisfied.

"Don't take off my protection casually in the future, you know it's very dangerous?"

"Didn't you get this back?"

Rin showed a nonchalant expression, and suddenly felt a faint chill flowing around her.

Looking up, Freya's eyes were deep and deep, as if she were looking at her naughty child and thinking about how to punish him.

He nodded obediently: "I didn't expect that I still had this power at the time. I will always carry it with me in the future."

Only then did Freya turn from anger to joy, her eyes softened again, and she lowered her head and kissed his forehead.

"By the way, because you have my protection, this dream is different from ordinary dreams."

"...?"

"The dream constructed by you as one of the subjects, because of the power of protection, triggers the power of the dream, connecting the dreams of many people in reality. The people you see are all in their dreams. of myself.”

Rin suddenly sat up, with a look of horror on his face.

"Wait a minute, I'm a little confused...does this mean an online dream?"
