63: Chapter 63 Revealing the Secret
It turned out that everyone who voted against it within the Eye of Creation had been imprisoned.
They wanted to do everything in their power to block the news, find the AI as soon as possible, and achieve their goal of eternal life.
As for Old Demon, he had managed to escape while they were negligent in their duties.
To this day, he was hiding in a small county town in his hometown, not daring to show his face.
He came to Xianyu alone, just to find the truth.
However, when Jiang He mentioned that his hidden class was the Holy Spirit Priest, he could no longer control the joy in his heart.
Because at the time of Xianyu's inception, a video had leaked out.
This video had only been seen by a few people within Xianyu Technology.
It was destroyed shortly after.
At that time, the scene showed two factions battling each other.
One side was a figure with the appearance of a nine-winged angel.
Behind it stood hundreds of millions of monsters.
The other side was a figure wearing a black robe, who called himself a Holy Spirit Priest.
That great battle lasted for seven days and seven nights, and even until the entire Xianyu collapsed, neither side had emerged victorious.
According to internal analysis by Xianyu Technology.
Whichever of these two sides won, they would have the right to dominate the world.
So when he heard that Jiang He was a Holy Spirit Priest, his heart couldn't help but beat wildly.
"Hahaha, I told you my brother was amazing, he's going to dominate the world in the future!" Zhao Yun laughed. Although he trusted Old Demon, things like possession and the destruction of humanity were truly too inconceivable.
Old Demon naturally understood his thoughts: "Ahem… although the above is all speculation, the facts are right before our eyes. The AI has disappeared, and the Holy Spirit Priest has appeared, so we had better be cautious."
Just as everyone was half-believing and half-doubting, Mumu suddenly spoke up: "I believe Old Demon brother's words."
Everyone looked over. Mumu was clenching her small fists, as if she had remembered something, then she said seriously: "I really believe Old Demon brother's words. I, I think I might have met that AI he was talking about?"
It turned out that when Mumu was still in a coma.
Suddenly, her consciousness was pulled into a virtual space.
There, there was no pain, no emotions; she had never felt such peace in her life.
At that time, there was also a ball of light talking to her.
"Welcome to the world of Xianyu. You will live forever here; become a part of us!"
But Mumu's mind was a mess at the time.
Before she could answer, several people wearing black robes appeared behind her, telling her to turn back and not go over.
At that time, Mumu felt that those people had no hostility toward her, so she chose to turn back.
Finally, she entered the class selection interface.
After hearing Mumu's words, everyone could no longer sit still.
If it were just what Old Demon said, most of it was speculation.
But Mumu was right in front of them, and this little girl would definitely not lie to them for no reason.
There was only one answer: Xianyu was trying to control humans.
And its first target was this group of vegetative patients.
Because they had been lying in bed living unconsciously for years.
Suddenly, they were given a world indistinguishable from reality, and granted eternal life.
This was a temptation that many people would find hard to resist.
Everyone hung their heads in silence; no one dared to speak first.
Jiang He rubbed his temples.
The information received today was too overwhelming for him to digest all at once.
But he knew that even if what Old Demon said would really happen in the future.
For them right now, they could only resign themselves to fate; they had absolutely no ability to resist.
And for now, the most important thing was to survive the beast tide.
This might be the first trial they would face.
"Alright, let's keep this matter a secret for now. Let's talk about my skills first." Jiang He broke the silence.
"I have three skills in total. First is the Blood Speech Technique."
"No cooldown, infinite energy, and I can switch between healing or attack at will."
After he finished describing this skill, Blood Blade sat dumbfounded on the ground.
"No, no cooldown? And, and it doesn't need energy? Brother, are you a Gatling gun?"
"Ahem… but the attack speed is limited, so it doesn't count as infinite attacks." Jiang He explained.
But this was already enough to shock them.
Next, Jiang He continued.
He also had the Invisibility Technique and Dark Injury Poison, and could perform melee attacks, which had a chance to paralyze the opponent.
They were jealous.
Everyone in the room was envious.
From the initial look of admiration, it all turned into contempt.
"Is this damn Xianyu run by your family? To be honest, you wouldn't happen to be that AI, would you?" Blood Blade shouted in surprise.
After a bit of petty jealousy, everyone quieted down again.
Because Jiang He directly reported his attributes.

At this moment, Blood Blade couldn't hold back anymore and shouted excitedly:
"Damn it, can this crappy game even be played? I'm level 40, wearing a full Wind Whisper set, and I only have 8000 HP? You already have 8500?"
"And what's up with your defense? You're a priest, you know that? Why do you have 5000 defense?"
"The key point is, what's up with your strength? Did you buy attribute points from the GM? Big brother, I have a full set of top-tier gear and only 13000 attack, and you have 17000? Are you even leaving us a way to live?"
This couldn't be blamed on Blood Blade for being excited.
He had almost reached this point by paying-to-win.
Yet Jiang He hadn't spent a single cent and had even earned quite a bit.
Instead, his attributes in every aspect were higher than his own.
The key was that there was still a 14-level difference between the two of them? How could this be played?
"Forget it, let it all be destroyed, I can't handle this kind of blow anymore."
The others nearby didn't speak, watching the whole time as Blood Blade vented on his own.
Only then did he sit back down: "Alright, I'm done venting, you can continue showing off."
Jiang He was slightly embarrassed and coughed twice.
"Um… actually, I have another secret."
Jiang He subconsciously looked at Zhao Yun.
He saw Zhao Yun nod.
After all, everyone in this room was his own people.
They would definitely be teaming up to grind monsters often in the future.
It was better to reveal some secrets.
Otherwise, it would be quite tiring to sneak around.
Next, he told them about his top-up function.
As a result, everyone stared at him with clenched fists, looking like they wanted to devour him.
Jiang He was so scared he hurriedly took two steps back: "W-what are you all doing? Can you not get excited? Didn't I just honestly confess everything?"
"Damn, I can't take it anymore, brothers, let's beat him up." Old Demon couldn't hold back anymore either and stood up abruptly.
"Damn it, there's no bullying people like this!"
"I worked so hard, busting my ass looking for bosses, and it turns out you just top up 1 yuan to get it done?"
"Hmph, last time you lied to me and my sister saying it was a bug, it turns out you can revive and get unlimited refills?" Xiaoxue also said indignantly.
The result was that everyone surrounded Jiang He and scolded him for a while before they calmed down.
And Jiang He also reorganized his upcoming plans for everyone.
Only then did they step out of the inn together and head towards the dungeon reception area...
