Chapter 281: Chapter 251 "Paradise" - Prologue (5000 words)

[Welcome to the Cross-dimensional Game!]

Speaking of which, it’s been several days since I "harvested my crops."

As soon as I logged into the game, a plethora of notifications popped up.

As the Greenfield Hospital continuously freeloading off the power of the "Illusion," spending in the Game Training Camp rose with the tide. Wang Hao’s income similarly skyrocketed.

[You’ve been offline for 15 days, 23 minutes and 11 seconds, you have acquired source*3012 through taxes, you have obtained Strange Object recipes*12, with the following details...]

[Guests have borrowed the following functionalities from the training camp...]

These miscellaneous explanatory texts totaled tens of thousands of words, all written in narrative form by robots.

Wang Hao, after reading one line, was too lazy to continue.

He internally complained, are the game developers stupid, writing such a long string, how many people would want to read it? Do they really think I’m the Earth Governor, reading political documents here?

And on the upper right corner of the screen, a red letter appeared!

This was the real highlight.

Wang Hao opened the letter with full expectation.

[The Demon God you created, "Dark Moon·Dragon Devouring the World," has been successfully born in Main Material World 003241-23-1 and is about to engage in the ultimate battle with the "Moon of Illusion"!]

"Oh? My premonition was indeed correct."

A golden transit circle emerged from the letter, blooming with a brilliance like that of diamonds.

Wang Hao rubbed his hands together in anticipation, filled with the delightful anticipation of a feast.

[After calculations by the game system, your created Demon God has enough combat power to inflict damage on the "Moon of Illusion," you have thus acquired the fourth clue. (Current clue acquisition amount 4/4)]

[Your current mission: You need to deliver the fatal strike when the final battle between them occurs!]

They want me to deliver the fatal blow? What does that mean?

"That is... a dragon can’t handle that guy by itself, just enough to expose a weakness. The ’Player’ must create the opportunity, right?"

"That’s not a bad setup!"

"But as for how the story will unfold, that remains to be experienced."

Wang Hao’s standards are quite high; both gameplay and storyline must be top-notch.

[Main storyline: "Paradise," now open.]

[Idealism Strength, level 8. Difficulty, seven stars.]

[Are you ready for the final preparations?]

[Yes/No]

Wang Hao took a deep breath, clicked on [Yes] filled with excitement.

The golden circle rapidly expanded!

[Detected you have a Legendary Avatar, you will be directly inserted into this game.]

[...Loading... Please wait...]

[Load successful!]

Snowflake dots flickered on the screen, playing a blurry video: a massive throng of people laboriously made their way up a mountain.

People traversed mountains and forded streams, enduring all hardships, just to rid themselves of pain and reach a distant haven.

As dusk fell and a drizzle began, the group turned a narrow mountain curve and took a brief rest.

Suddenly, the leader exclaimed, "We’ve arrived, Paradise is here! Just inside the gorge ahead!"

Their expressions turned from worn exhaustion to twisted ecstasy, quickening their pace involuntarily.

The sound of the rain, "splash splash," and the footsteps, "tapatapa," echoed through the valley.

"What are they doing?"

For some reason, Wang Hao always felt there was something very eerie about the expressions of these people.

The scene shifted, a light appeared before the eyes, and beyond was a small temple.

There was a monk inside.

From the temple came the sound of wooden fish and chanting, "Shariputra, form is no different from emptiness, emptiness no different from form..."

In the mist and sprinkling water, the fragrance of osmanthus flowers lingered, and hanging on the temple gate was a white wooden placard with three dull, red-painted characters: "Ganlu Temple."

And about two hundred meters away from Ganlu Temple was a pitch-black cave.

"Quick, let’s go inside!"

"Let me go first!"

"Let me in first!"

The crowd, as if mad, rushed into the cave without waiting.

"Form is emptiness, emptiness is form, perception, sensation, volition, and consciousness are also like this..."

Accompanied by the chanting monk next door, this eerie atmosphere peaked, causing Wang Hao to get goosebumps.

[Paradise Chapter·Prologue]

These few words dissipated like ripples on water, the scene expanded, and Wang Hao gained control of his body.

"Are we supposed to go into the cave? What’s the connection between the ’Sheep Intestine Tunnel’ and this cave?"

He instinctively thought of the kickoff instance for this series of clues - "Sheep Intestine Tunnel."

Ultimately, will all the clues come together?

Wang Hao pondered for a moment, pushed open the temple door: "Master, I pay my respects."

Inside, only a small oil lamp flickered, its flame waxing and waning, illuminating a small corner of the world within the temple.

An old monk was sitting on a meditation mat, his face obscured by the night.

"Benefactor, please take a seat."

The old monk stopped chanting and spoke softly, "Since the benefactor was able to break away from the crowd, you are not one of those deluded people, so why come here? To enter that cave is to enter another world, a world full of desires."

"There are many times when it’s necessary to come," Wang Hao said with a slight smile, "Master guards this place, could you tell me what this so-called ’Paradise’ is really about?"

"A place of asceticism filled with desire. Excess desire brings suffering; the fatigue of life and death begins with craving. With little desire and inaction, one’s body and mind are at ease."

The old monk brought his hands together and said, "On request from an old friend, I guard this place. Even if I can bring back one or two who have lost their way, that is good. And if I cannot, it is not necessarily bad."
