I Am Stuck In A Beta Test For 1000 Years

Chapter 352. It began!

The holy city, Mephisto.

In the past. two Holy See\'s had failed in succession within half a year. This had only happened when the abyss had invaded on a large scale, or when the new and old Holy See had turned against each other and died together. But this time, it had come so suddenly and without any warning. In addition, the word "Prophecy" was like a curse. Whoever was pointed at would die. The entire sacred city was shrouded in panic.

Then, there was the sudden return of Laurentia and his departure from home.

Of course, he wasn\'t a commoner. He came from a big family, and an aristocratic family at that.

Things like the holy sword were often hidden deep underground, treated like a treasure by a group of people, and then waited for a capable fool to lead a group of people to snatch it. If they won, they would say "the weak can not pass the test of the holy sword" to act cool; if they lost, they would say "stop, this is a trial, the holy sword is now yours!"

However, Holy Lance was completely different. She was a pampered young lady who was used to living a rich life. She had always been used to relying on rich people and relying on strong people.

The strong were the strongest individuals in the strongest group. Before Laurentia was his father, and before that, his grandfather. When it came to his generation, he became the youngest and most capable one. He was fancied by the Holy Lance, and then the Holy Lance got close to him.

Of course, all of this was the \'Holy Lance\'s choice\'.

Including kicking him away.

But don\'t think too much about it, there weren\'t many people in the Holy Lance.

If the Holy Lance was gunpowder, then the people of the Holy Lance family, the Angesilo family, were all shells. Although the Laurentia family had become empty shells, the shells from before were still there, each of them exuding the residual heat and the smell of gunpowder. It was a spectacular sight.

Half a month ago, after Laurentia returned and left home, the old bullet shells in the family suddenly exploded! They were so angry!

It was said that when Laurentia\'s grandfather saw him come back in a wheelchair, he was so angry that he almost sat in the wheelchair himself. Later, he was stopped by his son, so he didn\'t have time to beat up his grandson.

But in any case, Laurentia had left his family. While he was setting up the Silver Foot, a new Holy See had been appointed.

It was the Father of Laurentia, the Sword Saint Brent.

He had given himself the title of Sword Saint, and if he were to evaluate it by numbers, it would be around level 80.

It did seem like it, but for someone like Char who had seen Mipeiro before, it was still a little too much. However, considering that this guy had only put down the Holy Lance five years ago and should be practicing swordsmanship, he had reached swordsman level 80 in five years. He was quite talented.

At least, that was what Sumeru thought.

In the living room of the Angesilo family, Sumeru mountain felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.

As the Guild Master of "Mandela", he would be given a small portion of the reputation quest when more than 2,000 people in the Guild did it as a benefit. Therefore, it was not an exaggeration to say that his overall reputation was the best in the game, excluding Char of course.

Therefore, he had also seen the world and had talked and laughed with many NPCs. However, this was his first time meeting the Holy See.

He understood that this was because their Guild had performed outstandingly in the training before the opening of PvP. But to be honest, it was an awkward time.

If it had been a day ago, he would not have been nervous at all, but now…

The entire Guild was discussing what the Silver Knight was, where Ravesland was, and how they could pick up Elfheim\'s reputation again without slowing down the progress here and achieve a win-win situation.

Some even thought of drafting something like the "Elfheim-United Holy Kingdom Peace Treaty" to make the players desire everything to ensure the maximum benefits.

The head of the United Holy Kingdom had suddenly summoned him at this juncture. No matter how he looked at it, he didn\'t seem to be here to chat.

"You\'ve heard about the Silver Foot, right?" Brent suddenly asked.

Sumeru \'s expression changed.

The middle-aged man in front of him was very good at being a leader!

This was called intimidation but he was not easy to deal with. He was 30 years old and retired from the army. He was trained in dealing with the bureau chief!

"I\'ve heard of it," he said calmly, not a single ripple in his voice.

"Oh? Then do you know where Ravesland is?" Brent asked again.

"I have some friends. They found a lot of clues, but they don\'t know if they\'re right or wrong. Please guide them."

A little pause later, Sumeru asked, "I heard it was a ruins from the Mechanical Civilization, hidden underneath the Red Earth Grassland."

Brent chuckled "You\'re very well-informed. You\'re right. Ravesland is in the ruins under the River of Rites. To be more precise, that place is also connected to the surface and underground."

The location was Sumeru\'s blindspot regarding the matter.

"I know it\'s below ground, it\'s Andahaim, but where\'s the River of Rites?"

The Red Earth Grasslands was a level 50 map, and even the elites of "Mandela" were only around level 45. It was still too early to form a team to explore it.

"I can understand the rest, but this is the first time I\'ve heard of the River of Rites" Sumeru said.

Brent didn\'t say anything, and simply gave him a map.

[You have received \'Red Earth Grassland Panoramic Magic Map (High-Precision)\', which has been synchronized to the mini-map.]

Sumeru was stunned for a moment by the map.

A high-precision map?

What a big move!

There were no satellites in this era, so this panoramic map that was accurate to a three-meter wide canal was like a full map hack!

Although he was happy, he immediately became vigilant.

If Breant gave such a big benefit right off the bat, what kind of sick work would he do next?

"The map was scouted three years ago, so it\'s inevitably not accurate enough, but it\'s enough for the average adventurer.

"Sumeru, the church has high hopes for you and your friends. I hope you won\'t be blinded by the immediate benefits. You have to be able to see the situation clearly," Brent said slowly.

Sumeru felt like he was 1 chatting with the political commissar face to face; he nodded.

Since he had already said that, he knew what to do.

"I will definitely obey the organization\'s leadership and strictly shut down my thoughts. I will definitely not let down the organization\'s careful cultivation of me."

Brent was stunned for a few seconds. He hadn\'t thought that this fellow would actually be so astute.

Wasn\'t this dialogue a little too familiar?

"It\'s good that you have this kind of awareness," he smiled.

"It\'s also mentioned in my Lord\'s last divine degree, the previous Holy See and my disappointing son were also killed by the abyss after going there. One died and the other was injured. When they came back, their temperaments changed drastically. They betrayed the church and wanted to form the \'Silver Foot\' Knight order. They claimed that they were the pure ones. This really shouldn\'t have happened."

"I understand, your Holiness. it\'s because our comrade is too lax in his thinking," Sumeru said solemnly.

"The enemy took advantage of this. I will definitely take this as a lesson and reflect on it. I will ask my comrades to strengthen their ideological education and avoid making similar mistakes!"

Brent was shocked once more.

\'This...\'

What was with this textbook-like answer?

"Very well." He was almost speechless.

After a moment of silence, he said, "The church still has a difficult task for you."

As he spoke, he took out a small bottle that was three centimeters tall. There was a clear and transparent liquid inside, but just looking at it made one feel as if one\'s soul had been cleansed.

"Take this with you. Think of a way to go to Ravesland and get the Holy Lance back.

Sumeru took the item.

-

[First Generation Holy Water ]

The \'Great Sage\' who had been passed down from the first era.

[Purify: Dispel all negative effects. ]

[Heal: Heal all injuries. ]

[Recovery: Allows the user to completely recover. ]

-

Good stuff!

As expected, the more awesome an item was, the easier it was to introduce its effects.

Sumeru remembered the wolf tooth totem necklace he got in the last instance. It could release purification once every once in a while in battle. The range alone was dozens of words, and the list of pureable and non-pureable was at least hundreds of words ...

Look at this!

Everything!

All!

Completely!

Tsk, this was simply a cheat.

However, once he got the item, he was a little puzzled.

Wasn\'t this a little too costly?

And no matter how he looked at it, it felt like an overkill.

Or could it be that this mission was so difficult that he couldn\'t pass it without using this cheater-like item?

He cast a puzzled look at Brent, and the latter explained, "Ravesland now belongs to one person, and the Holy Lance is in his hands. What you need to do is to exchange with him. This is one of the bargaining chips I\'m giving you."

Sumeru was stunned.

\'I understand now. Is it a transaction with an NPC?\'

But was this worth enough?

He couldn\'t help but hesitate, but after a moment of hesitation, he came to a realization.

He was being tested by his superior!

Breant didn\'t say a word about whether this thing was worth it or not. His meaning couldn\'t be any more obvious: go ahead and exchange for it.

As long as Sumeru could get the Holy Lance, he could have as much as he wanted. But by the same logic, he has to make up for whatever he lacked, or he has to admit that he was not good enough.

This is interesting.

Sumeru understood and stood up to salute.

"Don\'t worry, Chief. I\'ll definitely complete the mission!"

With a satisfied expression, Brent got up and patted him on the shoulder. "Do a good job. The organization will not mistreat you."

…

In less than an hour after Sumeru left Mephisto, a piece of news spread like wildfire on the forum. The poster who posted it seemed to be sitting right under the table they were chatting at, shaking out the content completely, leaving only the details, such as the First Generation Holy Water, and so on. He only said that the church had announced the location of Ravesland and labeled it as a "heretic", so the brothers could focus their fire on it.

There was no doubt that this was the doing of Sumeru.

However, this person was very smart. He did not disclose the information he had obtained, nor did he hold it in his hands. Instead, he spread it in this way to resolve the impact of the Silver Foot.

At the same time, he was also showing his cards to the \'Ghost\' and the \'Flames\'.

The latter two had been isolated by the players. When the Silver Foot appeared, others naturally linked the "need for Elfheim reputation" to these people. After all, it was the most beneficial for them. Moreover, Laurentia had left the United Holy Kingdom and received help from the elves.

Just like Ghost Lantern was aware of Char trying to divide the player group, Sumeru must know about this. It was just that he didn\'t know who the person behind the scenes was.

Since someone wanted to divide him, he would simply do so.

While the players themselves formed the \'trend\', they were also influenced by the trend. This kind of following the trend made it easy for them to accept the concept of duality such as \'good\' and \'evil\'.

Once this kind of acknowledgment was acquiesced, even if the system had not yet established a camp, the camp in one\'s heart would have already been established. At that time, no matter how good a Silver Knight was, it would not be able to compare to the estrangement in one\'s mind.

…

"What do we do?"

Huangfu Shou looked at the invitation and scratched his head.

"What\'s the hurry.At most, we\'ll just post a thread," Apple Pie said slowly.

"What should we post? The remains are legal, the monsters have more money and experience, the earlier you get, the earlier you enjoy?"

Ghost Lantern nodded, "This one will do too."

"Alright, my ass! Big Sister, where\'s your second uncle? Doesn\'t he read the post?" Huangfu Shou asked.

Apple PIe pouted, and her expression was unnatural for a moment, but it quickly disappeared.

"He did, but he had to wait a while."

In fact, she had just asked Rylai to forward the post, but she was still blocked.

Detestable!

Despite her complaints, she was still worried.

She was worried that Char would be like a vigilant bird and fly away the moment she got close to him.

On the other hand, she was also curious if Char was really unable to see the players\' forum.

She was also curious about \'Fantasy World\' and what the special players were.

Could Char be a spirit that was wandering around the data?

It was because of her curiosity that she took this contradictory action, she took the initiative to forward a post to Char, but she did not find any reasonable excuses like \'this person\'s ID is so interesting\' or \'have you read this content\'. She felt that she would appear like a suck-up and was too lowly!

This young lady also has a temper!

"I\'ll just say it, tacitly allowing myself to know your secret. Let\'s see what you\'ll do!"

She was both determined and nervous, both cowardly and reckless.

Then, it was a long wait.

From the corner of her eye, she saw Ninja Blade\'s face. She could not help but wonder why this guy was so calm.

She sent him a private message.

[Voiceless Man, aren\'t you worried at all? The Japanese have already attacked Ping\'an County! ]

[Brother Char will have a plan. There is no need.]

[If you call my second uncle big brother, doesn\'t that mean you\'re also my uncle?]

[That\'s not necessary. We\'ll discuss our own matters.]

[You\'re really patient. Have you ever thought about what would happen if he did not look at the forum?]

After hesitating for a while, Apple Pie changed the second half of the sentence to "What if he can\'t see the forum?"

She was just testing the waters!

After a moment of silence, the other party replied.

[Didn\'t you already tell him? ]

"Eh?"

Apple Pie looked over in surprise. She suddenly found that this guy, who was usually quiet and even a little delicate, had a hint of cunning on his face. Especially when he looked at her, it gave her the illusion that she had seen through her little tricks.

Could it be ...

Apple Pie licked her dry lips and suddenly had a bold idea.

[Do you know where your big brother lives offline?]

After sending it, she suddenly had the urge to delete it.

However, it was only for a second before it was replaced by excitement.

If this guy had the same thoughts as her and Rylai, then they had one more alliance!

She just didn\'t know if he could get this point.

After a long while, there was no reply from the other side. Just when Apple Pie thought that she were overthinking-

[I\'m guessing that you\'re also suspecting that there\'s something wrong with Big Brother Char, so you\'re testing me, right?]

It\'s here!

Ally +1!

Apple Pie suddenly felt that this matter was sacred, and they became explorers. Along with it, even Ninja Blade looked a lot more pleasing to the eye.

However, before she could respond, she suddenly received a document from Char.

She opened the document and glanced at it. The worry between the girl\'s brows immediately disappeared.

"This guy started to make arrangements long ago…"

...

Sumeru kept refreshing the forum.

Naturally, he didn\'t want to grind for some dumbass content or new things in the game.

He wanted to know what this group of people\'s strategy was.

Suddenly, he saw a post.

"Is anyone here to save me in Ravesland? If not, I\'ll come back and ask later."

!?

What was going on?

Sumeru\' curiosity drove him to click on it.

Then, he saw a vast number of pictures.

Sumeru located the Guild base on the outskirts of Mephisto, still in the game. When he browsed the forum, pictures would float around him in the form of a hanging window. In the past, there were at most 20 or 30 pictures around him, and he could get a general view of them after one circle, but now he was surrounded by pictures.

The pictures swirled like a hurricane, which meant that the person who posted the post was still uploading pictures at a terrifying speed. He had already drowned by it.

There were also many people who were flooded with replies. The number of replies on each picture was increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye. On one hand, it was because these screenshots were difficult to describe in a few words. In the past, one would have to choose a screenshot tutor, but now it was an immersive game. If one could make such screenshots, they would be talented. Why not just record a holographic image and play it?

On the other hand, it was because of the content of the picture.

The first was the most eye-catching, a welcome plaque that had been broken into two pieces. There was even an LED on it that read "Welcome to Ravesland".

It was the place.

In addition, there were also brass-style buildings and piles of mechanical limbs on the streets, which were no different from the mechanical ruins they had seen.

In the dark underground, he could vaguely see all kinds of ores, crystal clusters, and plants that were afraid of light. Without exception, they were all in high demand on the surface, but they were like weeds that could be seen everywhere underground. Wasn\'t this a little too crazy?

Fortunately, these things were surrounded by demons, which made them more credible.

"I\'m trapped here."

The person who posted it said so, and then used a few pictures to tell a bizarre story-falling into a treasure land and being trapped by demons, etc., standard routine text.

Therefore, some people immediately suspected that this was made up. They even suspected that this "Abbacchio" was sent by the two major guilds to make up stories to distract the public\'s attention.

However, the rumors were immediately refuted by a vast number of players. This ID with a strong smell and a few others were JoJo\'s four-man team. They were very popular among the passerby players. Although they had joined "Ghost Hunter" for-short time, they left later because they were not used to guild activities.

After the refutation was over, everyone\'s attention was focused on the pictures. After all, they were first-hand information about Ravesland.

Sumeru looked at them one by one, and his eyes suddenly fixed on a picture.

There was something in the picture that gave him an inexplicable sense of familiarity, and that was the First Generation Holy Water that he had just obtained.

However, there was a full bucket of the Holy Water in the picture.
