No Man's Sky: One Hundred Years of Solitude Chapter 18: Strange Things
'System prompt: You have obtained the sub-artifact - Angel's Fall. Not completed!'
'System prompt: You may be able to replenish this weapon by accepting tasks from the justice camp! You can also transform this sub-artifact into other forms by infusing different energies! It all depends on your ideas! '
'System prompt: Your mission has begun to change, please pay attention!'
"Oh, it looks like something really cool. Congratulations, Master~"
"There's nothing to congratulate."
Looking at the sub-artifact burning in his hand, Li Lin curled his lips.
It was the nature of the system. If you didn't do any missions, you wouldn't be able to unlock the true power. You could either use your life as a price to gain temporary power like the guy here, or just use it as a Holy Flame amplifier.
But even so, Li Lin was satisfied. At least the Holy Flame Amplifier was quite useful. Whether in hell or in other places, Holy Flame had proven its absolute suppression of evil. What was there to be dissatisfied about directly attacking one-third of the camp? It was better to say that Li Lin was overjoyed that this thing could be used as a firewood stick.
But what made Li Lin feel a little uncomfortable was not the large torch or fire stick, but the characters that showed changes.
'System prompt: It’s so close!
You have successfully arrived at the Hades. As history has said, this was once the lair and flagship of countless demons. The traces of corruption and sigils everywhere make you tremble all over. This is definitely a priceless treasure. It stores countless lost runes and hides too many secrets. But no matter what, there won't be anything particularly scary in it! This fallen ship, the cursed ship, the ship that everyone thinks is a nightmare, is now opening to you! What are you still hesitating about! Don't hesitate any more, go to the depths of the ship, towards your own reach! '
'System prompt: Voice of Holy Light!
It looks like you did it. In the center of countless corpses, you saw the noble and respected creature at a glance. The blazing holy flame and the unquenchable enthusiasm of hundreds of years confirmed its identity. It was the unfinished product of the fallen sub-artifact angel, one of the terrible creations of the Holy Light Sequence, an extreme weapon that appeared only to purify hell. This thing is called a nightmare by the world, but for kind people, it is salvation. If you continue to move forward into the ship, you will find more of this kind of creation. '
'System prompt: Void Shadow!
Enter, get closer. Whether it is the Holy Light or the devil, the nature of this ship cannot be hidden from you. They are just the material on the surface, and you know very well what is deeper. That is the extreme void, the idealistic and crazy void. Everything here is caused by the aftermath of that terrible will. But what is that terrible thing? Don't you have any interest? The soul is trembling, and the power is singing. You can feel a terrible call permeating the depths of the Hades, calling you to move forward. '
"Will all three of you let me go forward?"
It seems dangerous to go forward.
Li Lin touched his chin and began to think briefly.
Once the mission unanimously asks you to do something, then something will definitely happen there. Who would throw a crazy player into a normal place? As long as there are players, something will definitely happen. This is a theorem.
What was a little strange was that Void didn't mention Jeanna at this time, which made Li Lin feel a little strange. He had praised her so much before, why did the Hades suddenly go silent? This didn't conform to the system's previous style. Or did he forget something, just like he had overlooked many logical loopholes, and this time he also missed some clues?
Just as Li Lin was thinking, he suddenly saw that the corpses in front of him seemed to move slightly.
"...Jeanne."
"Eh? What's up, Master?"
"Do you see those corpses moving?"
“It’s moving.”
The girl answered without hesitation, as calmly and confidently as if crops could grow in the ground.
"But isn't it normal for corpses to move? What's wrong? Over there, corpses all move."
"Then you live a terrifying life."
I don't like moving corpses.
Looking at the corpses that seemed to have heard the conversation between the two and no longer pretended to have just been resurrected, but instead began to move one after another, Li Lin sighed slightly.
He was surprised to find that another creature that could restrain his war domain had appeared. This domain had no effect on construct cyborgs, nor on creatures of pure obsession and the undead. Because the reason for their birth was to kill the symbol of strife, such a fundamental contradiction could not become part of the strife at all.
"White Knight ... White Knight... White Knight..."
The corpses, driven by the obsession of revenge, walked towards Li Lin with stiff steps, strange lights in their eyes.
In front of Li Lin, holy light instantly condensed into a solid entity. Undead soldiers holding the Holy Sword of Dawn walked out from the light curtain one after another, gathered around Li Lin, and pointed their sharp blades at the resurrected corpses.
"The dead look like dead people."
Don't stand up and embarrass yourself.
The ghost soldiers in front of Li Lin all held the Sword of Dawn and turned those obsessed monsters into ashes like chopping melons and vegetables.
They didn't even need to use basic magic power. These corpses, driven by obsession, couldn't even use magic power. The soldiers, who were surrounded by golden light and holding the Sword of Dawn, could easily kill them all.
However, even if they were dying in vain, these corpses still did not change at all, wailing and charging towards Li Lin, and then being hacked to death one after another by the soldiers. This process, which was like piling, was really not interesting at all. Even Jeanna, who was just doing soy sauce, got a few zombie heads and smashed them into powder.
'So what are you here for?'
Simply to die?
Looking at the ashes, Li Lin couldn't help but think.
However, the next moment, the ashes moved to one side. An invisible threat made Li Lin subconsciously turn his body to the side, and the deck beside him quietly turned into a pile of debris.
…What the hell is this? !
They're already dead and have turned to ashes. How can they still cause trouble?
Feeling the inexplicable cold wind, Li Lin looked at the ashes in front of him that seemed to be normal, and his heart was filled with doubt.
