In the sky, fine raindrops fell like silver threads.
Raindrops fall on the giant bubble.
It actually penetrated straight through without any hindrance, causing no ripples.
Occasionally, pedestrians passed by in a hurry on the street, turning a blind eye to the strange bubbles.
There were even two gangsters with shoulders and backs, big shoulders and round waists, covered in black tattoos, swaggering through the bubble and the seven figures in it, but they didn't notice it.
It feels as if these figures are in completely different dimensions than themselves, and exist in two worlds.
Not long after, the seven figures in the bubble gradually solidified. Among them were men, women, old and young. The clothes they wore were very different from those worn by Iron Rock Star residents, making them look out of place.
Of the seven, only five were conscious.
They are a Lolita girl, a middle-aged man in a suit and ties, a young man with short hair and a black vest, and a man and woman who appear to be a couple.
After these people appeared, they were inside the bubble without any panic or attempt to move around.
Instead, he began to look around calmly.
As for the remaining two people, they were lying on the ground, seemingly in a coma and had not yet woken up.
"Hey, it's so pitiful. There are actually two newcomers in Seven-star difficulty's mission world this time! And, looking at it like this, they are destined to be cannon fodder!"
A clear voice suddenly sounded, with a hint of undisguised joking.
It was the Lolita girl who spoke. She stood aside, her head slightly tilted, her eyes fell on the two newcomers who fell to the ground and were unconscious not far away. The corners of her mouth raised slightly, outlining a meaningful smile.
Of the two newcomers, one was a middle-aged man with a big belly and some baldness. His round belly was bulging and his shirt was stretched tight.
The other is a woman in supermarket work clothes, about fifty years old. Her simple clothes and slightly aged face reveal traces of life.
Obviously, the newcomers this time are ordinary people.
And, looking at this physical quality, it's not much better.
After hearing the girl's words, the other people turned their heads and glanced at the two newcomers indifferently.
Their eyes were cold and devoid of any sympathy, as if the two unconscious people were nothing more than insignificant ants.
In fact, this is indeed the case.
In an ordinary world, newcomers might still have a glimmer of hope, but in this world of Seven-star difficulty, the chance of survival for newcomers is almost infinitely close to zero.
Not only is this place full of unknown dangers and crises, but what's even more frightening is that newcomers are often used as cannon fodder by seniors.
To test out the pitfalls and dangers of the road ahead for yourself, you may not even know why when you die.
"Miluna, don't say it so harshly. This is our teammate after all. I don't want to hear you say that again next time."
At this time, the middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes raised his head.
He has an elegant face, a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, his suit is straight without any wrinkles, and his movements are elegant.
He looked at the Lolita girl and said calmly.
His voice was gentle, but to Miluna's ears, it was almost the same as a devil's smile, and he couldn't help but feel a chill behind his back.
"Yes, yes, Captain Xu Shu, you are right!"
Miluna raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a cute smile.
There was a sneer in his heart.
Smiling tiger.
Anyone who can become a captain is really cruel and ruthless, and she pales in comparison to her Great Witch.
Looking at it like this, the two newcomers are afraid of being played to death by him in the end.
"Wang Xiang, how is the situation?"
The middle-aged man, also known as Xu Shu, glanced around and then turned his gaze to the short-haired man aside and asked.
"If my guess is correct, this should be the location of the protagonist in the novel.
Lower City F District of Iron Rock Star.
The scene here is almost the same as that described in the novel. According to Book Spirit's past habits, the timeline of this mission should be in the initial stage of the protagonist. However, for the specific situation, we need to wait for a while before the mission starts to find out the situation..."
The short-haired young man replied.
He is only in his twenties and wears a strange colored unilateral spectacles above his right eye. Lines of data on the lenses are constantly flowing and refreshing like running water, as if he is scanning and analyzing the surrounding environment.
Hearing this, Xu Shu nodded.
Instead, he looked at the street in the distance, wondering what he was thinking.
So does the rest of the people.
In front of everyone.
Above the bubbles, there is a series of numbers.
[28:51]
As time goes by.
At this moment, the number of 51 is still decreasing.
When time returns to zero, it will be time for them to fully enter this world.
Soon as time passes.
The time above came to 10:11.
Two exclamations sounded one after another.
Look away.
It was the two newcomers who had fainted who woke up.
"It took nearly twenty minutes to wake up. This kind of qualification is no different from trash..."
The short-haired man looked at him.
Data flows on the lens.
On it are the physical data of these two people.
"Don't be nervous, you two! As for why you are here, you just need to think carefully. Book Spirit should have implanted the information in your minds!"
Xu Shu stepped forward with a smile.
"Do you know who I am? How dare you kidnap me! Be careful I make you unable to eat and carry you around! Boy, you... uh..."
The pot-bellied man didn't care at all, his face turned red and he yelled loudly.
However, he had just finished speaking.
The whole person was strangled by the neck by an invisible force, and his feet, weighing nearly two hundred kilograms, flew off the ground.
After seeing this weird method.
The middle-aged man with a big belly lost his arrogance and suddenly became much more honest.
The woman wearing supermarket work clothes next to her was much quieter in comparison.
A pair of eyes carefully looked around.
She remembered that she was selling products in the supermarket a second ago, but she just opened the door to go to the toilet, and somehow she appeared here.
Afterwards, after the two of them digested the information in their minds, their faces suddenly lost all color and turned pale.
If it were normal times, they would never believe the unbelievable thing in front of them.
But now they can't help but not believe it.
Faced with this situation, Xu Shu raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
"Don't worry, as long as you are obedient, it won't be difficult to leave alive. After all, this is how we all came here..."
Xu Shu's excellent speaking skills, coupled with his gentle and harmless appearance, soon had an effect, and the two people's originally tense expressions gradually relaxed.
However, at this moment, a cold mechanical voice suddenly sounded, interrupting their conversation.
"Ding! Welcome readers to the world of seven-star novels - [Eternal Silence Sun].
In order to create the most immersive and unparalleled reading experience for everyone.
Next, readers will experience this world for themselves and experience its customs and customs. I hope you can survive.
Next, the task is released! "
The cold voice echoed in everyone's ears.
The moment the words fell.
Lines of black writing appeared on everyone's retinas.
[Main Quest: Survived for nine years.
[Task reward: B-class Book Ticket, one thousand points of royalties.]
[Side Quest 1: Become a friend with Zhao Yao, and your favorability will reach over 60%.]
[Reward: A C-level book stamp, 500 points of royalties.]

Please note:
1. Danger is everywhere in the world, please pay attention to your own safety.
2. There are hidden tasks in this world.
But it needs to be triggered under specific conditions, and the rewards are generous, usually related to the plot or world view.
3. Every choice you make may affect the direction of the plot, so please make decisions carefully.
4. Establish good relationships with characters in the world, they may provide key clues.
"Warning: Do not disclose any information about Reincarnation Book House to the natives of this world in any way. Violators will be directly obliterated!"
The last handwriting fell.
All the black writing disappeared without a trace, as if it had never appeared.
But the next moment.
Another line of writing appeared.
[An unknown change has been detected in this world, Main Quest has been changed, Side Quest is being modified...]
Seeing this scene, everyone looked at each other in shock.
"Captain, what's going on?"
The woman in the couple couldn't help but ask. She was dressed in red, her skin was as white as snow, but her lips were as red as blood.
From a close distance, you can even smell the faint smell of blood emanating from its body.
At this moment, she looked confused and her eyes fell on Xu Shu.
Hearing the sound, the others also turned their attention to Xu Shu.
Xu Shu did not answer immediately. Instead, he frowned and fell into a brief thought. After a while, he slowly spoke:
"It's not that this has never happened to my knowledge, it's just extremely rare.
Once it appears, it's usually not a good sign..."
At this point, he suddenly stopped and said nothing.
Everyone was not stupid, and instantly understood the meaning of Xu Shu's unfinished words.
This means that the previously learned plot can no longer be used as a reference for action, and the difficulty of the world may rise in an unimaginable direction.
Just as everyone's thoughts were swirling, the changed mission appeared in front of them:
[Main Quest: Survive for three years.
[Task reward: one A-level book stamp, one thousand points of royalties.]
[Side Quest 1: The degree of favorability with Zhao Ying reaches over 30%.]
[Reward: A B-grade book stamp, a thousand points of royalties.]
The following tasks have not changed, only Main Quest and Side Quest have changed.
"Is this... is the difficulty reduced?"
When the fat man with a big belly saw this scene, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he couldn't help but say.
However, his words fell on deaf ears to others.
Indeed, at first glance, Main Quest time is shortened and Side Quest one goal changes.
The overall difficulty seems to have dropped, and the rewards have increased.
But things are far from that simple.
Xu Shu and other five senior members' faces not only showed no trace of joy, but their expressions became more solemn.
They know the rules of Reincarnation Book House all too well. If this happens, it can only mean that the world has changed, become more dangerous, and the death rate has increased significantly.
This is a seven-star horror-level novel world. With such changes happening now, even they can't guarantee that they can escape unscathed.
"Okay, no matter what, let's take it one step at a time.
According to the plot, Zhao Ying should be the lame sister of Zhao Yao. They are all members of the same family, and the mission objectives remain roughly the same.
Let's find each other's home first and then talk about other things! "
Xu Shu made arrangements immediately.
No one had any objection to this.
Among the crowd, the woman in supermarket work clothes slowly raised her hand, breaking the discussion.
"I think Main Quest wants us to survive for three years. Wouldn't it be better to find a hidden and safe place to hide?"
There was a hint of caution in her voice, but also a hint of expectation.
"Theoretically, that's right.
But this is the seven-star novel world of Reincarnation Book House, so doing so is undoubtedly an extremely stupid behavior.
In this world, the aftermath of those mecha battles can blow up the planet beneath their feet. It is impossible to hide safely. "
Miluna stood aside and couldn't help but sneered when he heard this, his eyes full of disdain.
The woman's face instantly turned pale, her lips moved slightly, but she didn't say anything more.
Just then.
As the countdown reached zero, the huge bubble that originally enveloped everyone gradually faded away.
With a "pop" sound, it completely broke.
In an instant, the icy wind and rain roared in, and the originally vague sounds instantly became clearly audible.
Then, the seven of them looked around.
I saw someone coming from the front.
"Leave this to me!"
The beautiful woman in the couple nearby smiled slightly.
Step forward.
Every time they enter the novel world, they will be given temporary language abilities in this world.
The ability disappears after leaving, so there is no need to worry about communication problems. This is one of the few human aspects of Reincarnation Book House.
Just a glance.
The passerby's expression became dull, and a hint of crimson appeared in his eyes.
He answered all the questions asked by the woman.
Soon, they got the location of the protagonist's neighborhood in the book from passers-by.
Half an hour later.
People walked out of a community.
The looks are different.
Not because of anything else.
It was Zhao Yao who originally lived here. Zhao Ying's family had already moved away half a month ago.
Moreover, they also received news that just one day ago, Lower City C District was violently attacked by mechas and was now reduced to ruins.
The official claimed that this was the work of Dark Domain thugs.
This kind of thing has never happened in the plot they know.
It seems that the plot has undergone a huge deviation.
The information previously obtained has lost its reference value and can no longer provide guidance for everyone's actions.
"Wang Xiang, how is it?"
Xu Shu looked to one side.
"It still takes some time!"
The short-haired young man named Wang Xiang said.
While talking.
Control a palm-sized computer in your hand and move your fingertips.
Lines of code are constantly refreshed.
About half a minute later.
He stopped.
"Found them, they are now in Lower City a district Cloud One.
However, the strange thing is that this place belongs to a truly wealthy area, and it is impossible for the protagonist's family to afford to live in such a place. "
He was a little confused, but considering the current collapse of the plot, it was obvious that this situation should occur.
"Go over now and find a way to complete branch one first!"
Xu Shu said.
No one had any objections, and the figure quickly disappeared into the rain.
Ocean Star.
Distance Iron Rock Star 3.1 billion kilometers.
Among the twelve planets, it ranks fourth from the bottom.
However, the size is more than three times that of Iron Rock Star.
Its surface is almost completely covered by deep oceans, and water occupies 99% of the planet's total area.
There are only a few isolated islands scattered on it.
The ocean of Ocean Star is not an ordinary blue. Due to the lack of light, the overall appearance is an abyss-like deep black.
Twelve planets.
The geography of each planet is different.
This also leads to the different races bred in them.
Although this world is still dominated by humans.
But there are also some other intelligent races.
For example, this is Ocean Star.
due to its unique ecological environment.
There is a highly developed civilization hidden in the depths of the sea.
On par with humans in this world.
The appearance is also similar to humans, except that the lower body has a fish tail.
The name is Jiaoren.
now.
In a seabed area of unknown depth.
In the deep sea, the dark waters are lit up by countless fluorescent lights, as if the Milky Way has fallen into the bottom of the sea.
This is a city intertwined with biological machinery and ancient civilization.
The surface of the towering coral building is covered with flowing fluorescent lines, like a living circuit board, flashing with the fluctuation of the water flow.
The huge spiral tower is made of translucent biological materials, with swimming fish and glowing plankton looming inside, as if the entire city is breathing.
On the street, Jiaoren people shuttle among them, their bodies combine the beauty of biology and machinery. Some tail fins are inlaid with metal scales, shining with a cold luster.
Some arms are wrapped with glowing biological instruments.
At the center of the city is a huge bioreactor, shaped like a beating heart, covered with pulsating blood vessel-like pipes that deliver energy to every corner of the city.
In the distance, a group of mechanical sharks slowly swam by.
Their bodies are made of a mixture of metal and biological tissue, and are equipped with luminous sensors on their backs, responsible for patrolling and maintaining order in the city.
In the deeper shadows, huge octopus tentacles stretch out from the gaps in the buildings. The tentacles are covered with luminous suckers. They are connected to the city's biological network and monitor every corner.
The air was filled with the faint sound of electricity, mixed with the low hum of the deep sea.
It gives people an indescribable feeling of shock.
In one of the main halls.
The sea water is blocked by an infinite membrane, creating an empty space.
Hu Qi stands opposite the tall and burly Jiaoren.
Lan Ze, as the supreme king of Shark Human Race, has a majestic figure, ten meters tall.
He naturally exuded an aura of innate majesty around him.
In comparison, the body of Bai Kong occupied by Hu Qi appears extremely small, as if it is just an infancy and unexperienced baby, almost insignificant in front of the huge body of Lan Ze.
but.
When Lan Ze faced Hu Qi, his expression showed no trace of the arrogance and temperament of a king.
He knew very well that the status of the person in front of him was extremely noble. In terms of background and strength, he was far above him.
"I wonder why Master Bai Kong came here in person?"
Lan Ze leaned forward slightly and touched his chest with his right hand, showing respect in his movements.
Hu Qi showed a gentle smile on his face.
"It's nothing important. I just heard that Your Majesty treasures a piece of Heart of the Ocean. I'm curious and want to borrow it for a look. I wonder if Your Majesty is willing to part with it?"
"Of course it's okay."
Lan Ze paused slightly, with a smile still on his face, and said unhurriedly.
"However, Heart of the Ocean is our Shark Human Race's handed down treasure. If outsiders want to watch it, they must follow the rules left by an ancestor."
"Oh? What's the rule?"
Hu Qi's eyes moved slightly.
"It's easy!"
Lan Ze As soon as he finished speaking, a shark man who was only two meters tall came forward with a delicate tray in his hands.
On the tray, there was a simple golden wine glass.
At this moment, the cup contained some red liquid that looked like blood.
Lan Ze raised his finger and pointed at the wine glass and explained.
"Just drink up the wine in this glass! Don't worry, sir, it's just ordinary wine."
Hu Qi's eyes fell on the cup.
He said calmly.
"What if I can't finish the drink?"
"Then it proves that you have no fate with Heart of the Ocean!"
Lan Ze shook his head slightly, a touch of imperceptible complacency flashed in his eyes.
The meaning is self-evident.
The material of his cup is very magical, with a special internal structure that can absorb and store thousands of tons of liquid.
Wanting to drink it all, in the eyes of ordinary people, is simply a fantasy and unrealistic.
His behavior was actually because he didn't want to hand over Heart of the Ocean.
However, due to Hu Qi's identity as Forbidden Mecha's master, he couldn't refuse directly to avoid offending him.
The only option was to make this last resort, hoping to make the other party retreat in spite of the difficulties.
"Okay!"
Hu Qi chuckled and reached out to pick up the golden wine glass without hesitation.
At the next moment, a shocking scene happened.
The wine in the wine glass seemed to be crazily devoured by an invisible force, disappearing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Not only that, but the entire cup seemed to have lost all its color.
The original luxurious golden color faded away, and gradually turned into a translucent crystal color, becoming crystal clear.
"It seems that I have a close connection with Heart of the Ocean! I hit the bottom right away before I even drank. Your Majesty, what do you think?"
Hu Qi shook the wine glass gently.
"Haha, it's true!"
The smile on Lan Ze's face instantly became a little stiff, as if it was frozen.
A few minutes later, Hu Qi was holding the fist-sized blue crystal, which was Heart of the Ocean.
Under the complicated gaze of Lan Ze, he calmly left Merfolk Kingdom.
Because he said he wanted to take it back and observe it carefully, and Lan Ze did not stop him at this time.
"Your Majesty, that's Heart of the Ocean, it has unlimited energy, how can you..."
On the side, a young guard saw this scene and finally couldn't hold it back and asked.
However, before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lan Ze waving his hand.
"Heart of the Ocean used to be really important to us Jiaoren, but now times have changed and energy problems can be solved with technology.
It's not worth it to fight a Forbidden Mecha master for this thing. "
Lan Ze explained calmly.
He said this, but his mind couldn't help but recall the scene just now.
As the king of the sharks, he has a very special ability, that is, he can detect subtle fluctuations in energy extremely keenly.
This is also the reason why the ancestors of the Mermaids were able to accurately find Heart of the Ocean in the vast sea.
But just now, the moment Hu Qi touched the wine glass, he felt a terrifying power fluctuation. That power was so powerful that it was unimaginable, even far exceeding the energy contained in Heart of the Ocean.
He knows very well that if he insists on not handing over Heart of the Ocean now, what will greet him will be the overwhelming anger of a Forbidden Mecha master.
And that was a consequence he simply couldn't afford.
Wow!
The mecha transformed by Eclipse Hermit rushed out of the water.
Hu Qi is sitting in the mecha.
I directly extracted the Sunstone among the Heart of the Ocean.
"It's almost the same..."
Hu Qi said to himself.
during this time.
Use the induction of Sun Chaser for Sunstone.
As well as the power of the original body, twelve Sunstone, he has already obtained ten.
For now, there are only two left.
However, obtaining the remaining two Sunstone should not be so simple.
While thinking about this.
His body froze.
A black light spot suddenly appeared in front of the mecha's flight. After the light spot appeared, it expanded rapidly.
Without any warning, the mecha he controlled was swallowed directly into it.
