Chapter 367
The Weak Water leaked into the human world through the gaps in Mount Buzhou, and the broken rocks of Mount Buzhou fell to become new mountain ranges. After the Weak Water's impact, valleys, canyons, and ravines were formed, and all the trees were destroyed.
The interstellar people had never seen anything like this before!
"My mech marshal, it turns out that floods and mudslides really can destroy nature. I thought that plants and trees would not be destroyed."
"It turns out that what made the mountains and fields empty was not only fire, but also floods and mudslides."
"Ahhh, the raging floodwaters swept away rocks and vegetation, and I died helplessly like that. Even the red hydrangea couldn't outrun them. It was terrifying."
"My great mecha general, so this is what people meant when they said 'God of Heaven,' 'Earth God,' 'Oh my God,' or 'Heavens' in historical records. When technology was backward and life was too primitive, people were powerless against natural disasters."
"Haven't you all noticed? Our interstellar space has gained the ability to resist, but at the same time, we have also lost nature."
"That makes so much sense..."
"Ahhh, who will save this world? Who will save this land!"
The map instance is no longer the lush greenery and beautiful landscape of before, but a place ravaged by floods and mudslides, with animals fleeing everywhere. But they have nowhere to escape. A single drop of rain falling from the sky is like a river crashing down on the earth for the creatures on earth, let alone now a true celestial river crashing down.
The scene was one of utter devastation!
"Family members, what if the map is filled with countless NPCs instead of players who can be resurrected? Like the NPCs in the 'Inherited Legacy, Endless River' event, they're gone once they die."
This sentence in the world chat left the entire channel blank for half a minute, followed by a flood of regretful comments:
"I'm so sorry, sob sob, I just became a bystander in the battle between two gods."
"So this is what saving the plot is all about? Can we start over? The whole herd of nine-colored deer I just saw was crushed to death by the falling rocks of Buzhou Mountain, waaaaah."
"Why do all living beings suffer when the gods fight? I'm so sad. This land is like this after all. Pictures, pictures."
The picture shows lush green trees, with deer walking under the trees and birds flying in the trees. The sky is azure, and the earth is full of life.
Wildflowers are so beautiful; you can almost smell their fragrance in the pictures.
"Ahhh, I'm so heartbroken. I absolutely adore the natural scenery of Qingfengyi, I'm a forest lover. Who can understand? Watching your most beloved things be destroyed right before your eyes, even tragedies can't be written like this."
.......
Two minutes after Buzhou Mountain collapsed, the mournful cries of the five divine beasts echoed from the sky.
Chang'e descended from the sky, her heart filled with sorrow, and said to the players, "The gods are heartless; without their will, all living beings have been shattered. Only the efforts of the five divine beasts to suppress them have maintained the stability of the earth and sky, preventing them from being completely destroyed. As a result, they have been severely injured and fallen into a deep sleep. How can this human tragedy be averted? It is up to you."
At that moment, countless points of light converged from the heavens and earth, coalescing into the beautiful image of Nuwa. She looked around, tears streaming down her face, "Why has it come to this? Why did you not love humanity so much! I will gather the stones to mend this sky and save my children!"
As she spoke, she flew into the distance, her tears falling to the earth and forming flowering vines that held the soil in place, preventing it from being washed away by floods.
The player's panel also showed new quest instructions:
"A friendly reminder: Players can observe the changes in the world. Like fish trapped in a pond, they remain confined to their watery abode, unable to tread the path between cliffs. Even amidst fire and wind, they remain steadfast in their observation of humanity. Players can also follow Nuwa to collect stones to mend the sky, reclaim the Weak Water, and save humankind. Birds fly higher than clouds, insignificant as dust. A single flap of their wings can create a tornado. Players can also collect stones from Mount Buzhou to repair its summit, allowing it to continue connecting heaven and earth, becoming a bridge between the two worlds. It is said that without a bridge between heaven and earth, the divine and mortal realms are separated. Only by exhausting the path on foot can one see the high mountains and the celestial beings. Players can also disrupt the repair of the sky, disturbing other players' games; all is a choice. The consequences of one's actions are borne by oneself; the direction of one's heart is determined by a single thought."
Players have been pondering this for a long time but still don't understand the meaning behind it. Is it really meant to guide players?
Why wasn't this guidance provided before?
If the players had been shown the tutorial before the event started, things might be different now. Mount Buzhou wouldn't have collapsed, and everything would be different.
Although some players complained about Qingfengyi's strange game tutorials, their enjoyment of the game remained undiminished. This is because it was all a choice made by the players; not stopping the two gods from fighting was their choice.
Those players who spearheaded the attempt to stop it did so; failure is one thing, but whether or not they tried is another.
After receiving the mission instructions, players didn't make a unified choice; some did one thing at a time. Millions of players even chose to do nothing and simply observe.
Millions of players chose to rescue animals from the flood, striving to save any species. They set up camps high in the mountains, confining the animals and sending their beloved pets to persuade everyone. They promised to release the animals back into the wild once the danger passed.
During this time, many animals actually adopted him as their owner!
This is a huge surprise for aquaculture enthusiasts.
Millions of players chose to rescue the plants and save their seeds. Then, the game system surprisingly announced that these plants could only be owned temporarily. Just like the rescue efforts, they would eventually have to be returned to the land.
This intelligent calculation stunned everyone. They were unaware that Qingfengyi's servers were now the mainframe, genuinely believing that Qingfengyi's server technology had reached the level of a mainframe. Players who saw the potential began investing heavily in the game.
However, after he went outside, he discovered that Qingfengyi was actually a wholly state-owned enterprise...
There's nowhere to buy stocks.
Most players followed the game's prompts, collecting five-colored stones for Nuwa while also collecting stones from Buzhou Mountain to transport up the mountain. Many players, accompanied by guardian spirits, guest spirits, and pets, advanced along multiple routes simultaneously.
Thanks to the lead of "Full Warehouse of Antiques," many players have consciously taken multiple routes. Regardless of whether they can get first place or not, just being on the leaderboard means they'll get something at the end.
Especially for themed events like this, it's best to walk each route.
Nuwa retrieved the stones from the lake used to mend the sky; these became the five-colored stones. She piled them up to one side, then looked at them with a headache. A player walked over and asked, "I have many stones here, do you need any more?"
Nuwa looked at her lovingly and said, "My child, I need it. But I need to refine these stones now. I wonder if you could help me make a Qiankun Cauldron?"
The player was surprised that communicating with the beautiful woman would lead to a quest, and she excitedly asked, "Okay, how do I do it?"
Nuwa said, "These stones can not only be used to mend the sky, but also to refine weapons. Perhaps if we refine enough of them, we can refine fragments of the Qiankun Cauldron. 9999 fragments will be enough to make the Qiankun Cauldron."
