The Game with Fairies
Chapter 63
Faced with the incessant questioning of Dragon Deity Fairy, Li Muyang felt mentally and physically exhausted.
Although this fairy was illiterate, the questions she asked were really tricky!
Many questions even hit the core, making it difficult for Li Muyang, who had a rich knowledge base in reading comprehension, to cope.
—How could such a clever and astute fairy be illiterate?
She lived in the most prosperous capital of the late Eastern Han Dynasty, yet she knew nothing about historical figures and had no knowledge reserves.
Could it be that she had no contact with the outside world?
At this thought, Li Muyang’s mind stirred—could this be a hidden plotline?
Is Dragon Deity Fairy trapped in the city, unable to contact the outside world?
Such a smart fairy, if she could interact with the living world within the city, would not have become illiterate.
Following this line of thought... The Luoyang City where Dragon Deity Fairy resided was also somewhat strange.
It was said to be the grand capital of the late Eastern Han Dynasty, but the residents were ghost-like, and the place was filled with an eerie atmosphere.
This ghostly city reminded Li Muyang of a classic horror game—Silent Hill.
Silent Hill had a distinction between the inner world and the real world.
Could it be that this bizarre city where Dragon Deity Fairy resided was actually the inner world of Luoyang City?
Dragon Deity Fairy had been staying in this inner world, unable to contact the real world outside, which is why she became illiterate?
With this in mind, Li Muyang’s eyes flickered, he saved his progress, and then abruptly changed the topic from philosophy to reality.
“...fairy, how many years have you been in this city?”
Li Muyang asked.
If it had been the previous Li Muyang who asked this question, Dragon Deity Fairy certainly would not have answered him.
But now, after a slight hesitation, Dragon Deity Fairy responded to Li Muyang’s question.
“Time is elusive in the mist, but it must have been a few thousand years, I suppose?”
Dragon Deity Fairy said uncertainly: “Sir, you are the first mighty one to set foot in this city in these thousands of years.”
Li Muyang then asked: “Then why doesn’t fairy leave this city?”
After Li Muyang finished speaking, Dragon Deity Fairy fell silent for a moment, her mood seeming somewhat downcast.
After a while, the fairy spoke.
“The resentment of the ghosts in the city is sky-high, their murderous intent strong enough to shake the heavens. They need to be suppressed here.”
“If I were to leave this city, the resentful spirits would spill out and possibly bring chaos to the human world.”
Dragon Deity Fairy’s tone was somber.
Upon hearing Li Muyang’s words, Zhuli was momentarily taken aback.
She looked at Li Muyang in amazement, pondered for a while, and said, “But those tens of thousands of resentful spirits were once the best among men, and even in death, they are formidable ghosts. Full of resentment and pride, they would not easily be commanded by me.”
“Even as the dead, it would be extremely perilous to find a way out in this mist, not to mention guiding me out after finding the path...”
Dragon Deity Fairy sighed and shook her head, “I have no favors or virtues towards those resentful spirits, so they have no reason to serve me even in death.”
“Unless...”
At this point, Dragon Deity Fairy seemed to think of something and hesitated.
Li Muyang curiously asked, “Unless what?”
Dragon Deity Fairy hesitantly said, “...Unless we find the legendary Bingxian Tiger Talisman.”
“That talisman represents the last obsession of tens of thousands of resentful spirits in the city. If they regain their senses and someone presents the Bingxian Tiger Talisman, perhaps they would pledge their loyalty.”
“However, the Bingxian Tiger Talisman has been missing for many years. I have been in this city for a long time and have tried to find it but to no avail. Perhaps, just as the legends say, it has long been lost.”
Dragon Deity Fairy sighed and shook her head slightly, “Thank you for your kindness, sir, but it seems that Zhuli will probably not be able to leave this city.”
“If sir can purify and soothe the resentful spirits in this city, preventing them from going out and causing trouble, that would be enough.”
Dragon Deity Fairy sighed softly.
Upon hearing her story, Li Muyang was momentarily lost in thought, “Bingxian Tiger Talisman?”
This thing seemed to be an item that Grand General He Jin would always drop.
But in his previous save files, Li Muyang had never found a use for this item; it couldn’t be used, equipped, nor did it have any magical powers.
He had thought it was just a keepsake.
Who would have thought that this thing could command the resentful spirits of the city?
Realizing this, a smile appeared on Li Muyang’s face.
“Fairy need not worry, I happen to know the whereabouts of the Bingxian Tiger Talisman.”
“The resentful spirits in this city will surely be at your command!”
All the conditions for a perfect game completion had appeared. The rest would be easy.
Li Muyang’s eyes sparkled with excitement.
After so many days of struggle, he had finally gathered all the conditions for a perfect completion.
The rewards for a perfect game were within reach!
