I haven’t even contacted him yet, but he sent a specific trade first?
Li Zheng opened the trading hall, found that item, and his eyes suddenly focused.
"This is... the final component of the Mysterious Declaration’s seal!"
The Mysterious Declaration has three layers of seals, Li Zheng had already successfully unlocked two layers, but there was no clue about the third component, so he could only rely on luck.
And now, he stumbled upon it effortlessly?
[Unlightable Candle
Tier: Platinum
Type: Special Item
Description: A half-burned candle that can no longer be lit, perhaps it has other uses.
Effect: The carrier will not encounter wandering creatures at night.
Grand Collector Old Prel: Oh ho ho ho ho ho! Looks like you’ve collected enough components?
Then unlock the final layer of the seal!
Let’s see where the long-awaited key leads to!]
"These attributes... can this really be called Platinum?"
Li Zheng was puzzled, it just prevents encounters with wandering creatures, yet it’s rated as a Platinum-level item?
Back then, the Death Declaration he obtained, weren’t any of its features more impressive than this?
And it was rely Silver!
This is freaking ridiculous!
Li Zheng expressed: I don’t understand, but I’m utterly shocked!
He casually took out the Mysterious Declaration and the candle, putting them together, and they attracted each other, seemingly wanting to rge on their own.
At this mont, a prompt appeared in front of Li Zheng:
[Do you wish to rge the Mysterious Declaration and the Unlightable Candle?
This fusion may result in unexpected outcos, please proceed with caution.]
Looking at this prompt, Li Zheng hesitated for a mont, then chose to confirm.
Since he had gathered everything, he naturally chose to rge, otherwise why bother collecting it with such effort?
[Fusion confird.]
[Fusion successful, triggered the hidden effect of the Mysterious Declaration, acquired: Lamp Holder]
[Lamp Holder
Tier: Unknown
Type: Item/Proof
Description: From the mysterious Lamp Holder organization, with it, you are the next Lamp Holder. It’s also the key to the Lamp Holder headquarters.]
"..."
Li Zheng scrutinized the lamp attributes in his hand, which hadn’t changed in appearance, ensuring he hadn’t missed a word.
"What the hell! What’s going on?! Why are all the features gone?"
An overpowered piece of gear, after unlocking all the seals, turned into an ordinary lamp?
How could anyone accept this?
"Could it be that entering the so-called Lamp Holder headquarters is the only way to regain those features?"
Li Zheng followed the usage instructions and activated the lamp in his hand.
The next mont, the lamp lit up, and the scene before him instantly transford, bringing him to a pitch-black space.
Holding the lamp, Li Zheng wandered around, finding no traces of any buildings except the bluestone slab beneath his feet.
Whenever he walked a bit farther in one direction, the darkness turned into a tangible presence, bouncing him back.
"What’s going on? The Lamp Holder headquarters is actually empty?" Li Zheng was a bit puzzled.
Suddenly, he had a thought and looked upwards.
At a glance, he saw nothing but starlight.
"This is..." The starlight was too distant for Li Zheng to see any attribute information.
"This is the Dark Realm, every light above your head is a node."
A familiar voice suddenly sounded from behind.
Li Zheng quickly turned around, only to see a strikingly handso man, wearing Black Dragon Armor, completely bald, walking towards him.
"You..."
"!!!"
Li Zheng looked at him, amazed and startled, for this person looked exactly like him!
"Wow, he’s damn handso!"
"Who are you?" Li Zheng instinctively glanced at Prelis’ Eye’s prompt interface, which was silent, Old Prel had gone offline again.
Damn!
These eyes really can’t be relied upon, always let down at critical monts!
"Who am I? In your terms, maybe my na should be: Void. You can also call : X!"
"Void?" Li Zheng cautiously clenched his hand, only to find it empty!
He panicked; he couldn’t contact the capsule residence here?
Of course, since he entered when the capsule was deployed, naturally, there’s no contact.
But losing contact with the Demon Blade seems a bit too much?
That guy should be linked to my mind, even if the residence is deployed, it should co to in a thought.
Void chuckled: "That motion just now, were you looking for the Bloodthirsty Demon Blade? Give it up, in the Dark Realm, everything from outside can’t be brought in!"
"Dark Realm...you ntioned the Dark Realm several tis, what is it? And the node you ntioned earlier, what is that?" Li Zheng probed, seeing that Void seed non-threatening.
"The Dark Realm represents nothing, appearing to be sothing but actually nothing." With a wave of Void’s hand, Li Zheng glanced down to see the original bluestone floor already vanished, leaving only a void of ’Black’.
"Opposed to the Dark Realm is the world you ca from, representing sothing! And the terminal you’re familiar with contrasts with , known as: Reality. Or you could call it another X!" Void continued.
This whole concept of reality vs. void, sothing vs. nothing had Li Zheng so twisted up, his head was nearly dizzy.
"But when I ca in, I clearly referred to this place as the Lamp Holder headquarters, not so Dark Realm." Li Zheng shook the Mysterious Declaration in his hand.
"Oh, you’re talking about this lamp, are you?" Void lightly pointed, and the lamp disappeared: "Look, it’s gone."
Li Zheng: "(・̮︢⍸・̮︢) You damn..."
After I painstakingly gathered the components and unlocked the door here, you just wave a finger and make the lamp disappear?
