Global recovery: A century of being stuck in the game

Following the woman, we soon arrived in front of the ancient pagoda where the wishing ceremony was held.

Seeing the two of them, the old man standing in front of the altar gently waved the scepter in his hand forward.

In an instant, the villagers surrounding the altar raised their hands above their heads and closed their eyes as if they were praying for something.

Taoyao did the same thing as everyone else.

After a while, someone came from outside the crowd, holding a killed chicken, and squeezed the blood from its neck onto the altar.

One, two, three, a total of thirty-one, their blood flowed and finally sank into the altar.

With a "hum" sound, a ray of blood light burst out from the altar, directly covering the ancient tower behind the old man, and the light quickly dissipated.

People around started playing gongs and drums. The music had a strong sense of rhythm, but it did not make people feel comfortable. Instead, it made them feel drowsy and gave them a splitting headache.

After an unknown amount of time, I heard the old man shout "Stop!"

The noisy sounds stopped abruptly.

Then I heard him say, "Okay, go tell them they can come and make a wish."

At this time, the villagers opened their eyes, said "OK", and dispersed.

In just a few seconds, everyone was gone.

Including the old man.

Tao Yao looked at the ancient tower in front of her. In fact, she had always been curious about this tower before, but at that time it was difficult for her to survive, so she had no time to be curious about other things.

Now that I'm here again, I might as well go and take a look.

After making sure that everyone had left, she approached the ancient tower.

The tower has seven floors and is thirty-five meters high. The tower door is locked. She did not touch the door rashly. She just lowered her head and looked at the keyhole of the lock carefully. She did not leave, but returned to where she had just stood and sat cross-legged waiting.

In less than ten minutes, large crowds gathered from all directions. At first glance, the place was packed with people, and it was roughly estimated that there were several thousand people.

As these people approached, the tower in front emitted a faint white light.

The old man also came to the tower and put his hands in front of him as a gesture of silence.

As the elder of the Wishing Village, he is more awe-inspiring than the village chief. He only appears at the beginning of each year's Wishing Ceremony to open the ceremony and then leaves.

The Wishing Ceremony is held once a year and lasts for one year each time.

Taoyao arrived just in time, just in time for the wish-making ceremony.

After the elder made this move, the originally noisy scene suddenly became quiet, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

He nodded with satisfaction: "The wishing ceremony has begun. Everyone can go to the tower to make a wish. Only four people can make a wish at a time. Let's start now!"

Following his order, led by the villagers, everyone lined up in a long queue, in groups of four.

The woman who had brought Tao Yao here before came over again, touched Tao Yao with her arm, and asked, "Where did you go just now? You haven't been here the whole time, have you?"

Tao Yao nodded gently: "I just came back, I'm a little tired so I took a rest here."

Woman: "That's good. Let's go help too!"

As she spoke, she took the lead and walked towards the ancient tower.

Tao Yao hesitated for a moment, but still followed.

As groups of people walked to the front of the pagoda, they respectfully lit a stick of incense, closed their eyes silently, made a wish, and then stepped aside.

After a hundred people, it took more than half an hour. When the people at the back wanted to move forward, they were stopped by the villagers: "Please wait a moment."

Those people didn't understand why, but they still waited quietly.

If you pay attention, you will find that there are only a few villagers left on the field, and no one knows where the rest have gone.

Tao Yao looked at the crowd, and at the same time, she heard a pious voice.

"I hope I can become the strongest weirdo!"

This is undoubtedly a wish.

At the same time, a white light flashed above the head of a person in the crowd.

The game prompt sound comes at the right time.

[You have accepted the wish from the guest: help him become the strongest weird.

Time limit: two days. 】

Tao Yao rolled her eyes speechlessly.

Although the wishes received at the Wishing Village are different every time, there are still similarities.

Without exception, these are wishes that are impossible for players to help fulfill.

Not to mention that the other party is a monster, the player himself does not have any weird abilities. It is difficult for an ordinary person to kill ghosts, let alone help fulfill such a lofty wish.

If every monster that came here was so ungrateful as to make such a wish and it all came true, the Lingyou Tower would have been overrun with top ghost kings long ago.

Tao Yao walked towards the man.

There were gaps between the people in the crowd, and they were also on guard against each other.

Taoyao's arrival has attracted many people's expectant gazes.

If they can get help from the villagers in the Wishing Village, their wishes will be easier to fulfill.

It can be said that Taoyao is still a popular figure nowadays.

She ignored the burning gazes around her and walked straight to stand in front of the young man.

The young man looked at the person in front of him with an excited look and expectant eyes: "You..."

Taoyao: "Hello, what's your name?"

Young man: "My last name is Xu."

Taoyao had a perfect smile on her face: "Okay Mr. Xu, please follow me, the gods heard your wish."

Mr. Xu immediately revealed a look of ecstasy. Facing the envious gazes from those around him, he felt happy and proud. He nodded repeatedly and kept saying "yes".

Unexpectedly, his wish was actually heard!

Now, he can show off his power in the entire tower, and no one will be able to stand over him anymore!

This sudden surprise of being able to reach the sky overnight and having a pie in the sky almost made him dizzy.

So much so that his hurried steps as he followed Tao Yao were a little crooked.

Tao Yao walked in front and led the way. She never looked back, nor did she say anything to Master Xu.

This meant that even though Mr. Xu wanted to ask something, he didn't have the chance.

In this way, they quickly moved away from the crowd and came to the back of the building.

As time went by, Master Xu could no longer hold back and asked, "Did God ask you to take me to see it?"

Rumor has it that there is a real god enshrined in the Wishing Village who can fulfill all wishes.

This is also the fundamental reason why so many weird things are flocking to it.

The so-called God they speak of is an indescribable existence, not a God in the traditional sense.

Despite this, its power is unimaginable.

Tao Yao wasn’t sure whether such a thing existed here or not. She only knew that she couldn’t fulfill Mr. Xu’s wish.

So when she heard the other party's question, she turned her head and chuckled: "Indeed, he is very sympathetic to your wish, so he asked me to treat you."

When Master Xu heard this, his breathing became rapid, and he said impatiently: "Then let's go!"

Just after taking two steps forward, he felt a sharp pain behind him: "You..."
