Without realizing, one hour had pa.s.sed.
Huang Yi was thinking for so long but he failed to get any hint or clue. Since lunchtime was approaching, he left Second World.
"Lunchtime!"
Huang Yi heard the sounds of the prison wardens and then a plate of green vegetables and rice was delivered into the cell.
He took off the ring and hid it properly before walking out slowly.
Lunch was still the same as before and Huang Yi was used to it, and started to eat his lunch, with his expressionless face.
"Next week, your confinement will end. And then you will be transferred to a common prison cell," the warden reminded him while vigilantly watching him.
Huang Yi was not affected, continued his meal as though he did not hear anything.
The wardens were slightly surprised as such an announcement was an extremely good news to most convicts. To be able to converse with another person in the common cell would not be so boring compared to being alone. But Huang YI was expressionless and did not reveal any strands of happiness from his behaviour, and seemed like his emotions would be unwavering regardless of any matter.
They did not realize that Huang Yi was not a convict. His consciousness was able to enter the vast Second World, and would be no different from any normal person outside of this prison. That was why he was unmoved by such a reminder.

Three days pa.s.sed by.
In these 3 days, Huang Yi would be alternating between the real world and gaming world every day. In Rose Prison, he was a normal convict. But in Heroes Prison, he was a player who was trying his very best to finish his quest.
This afternoon, Huang Yi was like his usual self, and logged onto the server, but he did not enter Second World. He went to the forum instead.
"American"s exclusive interview: America"s first player Jide on how he completed his rare quest!"
"Swordsman Defying Chaos Sword shares how he killed the Level 93 boss in a rare quest."
"Player Silent Apricot Teeth publishes his strategy guide on how to complete a rare guest quickly."
When he entered the forum, he took a look at the posts with the highest hits based on the popular stickers tagged to them. Most of them contained the strategies by top players on how to conquer certain quests as a reference. Huang Yi read them before, but every player"s quest was different and he could only gain some inspirations from such guides so they were not much help in the end.
Based on the forum"s official data, currently there were one billion players. 5572 players had a rare cla.s.s, and it was approximately only 1 out of 2 million players was able to complete the rare quest.
However, there were some players who did not accomplish the rare quest, but due to their outstanding performance, they managed to finish more than 50% of the quest and managed to gain the qualification to have a random rare race!
But they could only select normal cla.s.ses for their character. There were an estimated 500,000 players who achieved that, and it was about 1 out of 20,000 players.
It could be deduced how hard the rare quest was, even if you completed about half of it, it would be impressive. For Huang Yi, the difficulty of his quest had actually increased by a few times, so it was much challenging to accomplish.
Huang Yi continued looking at other posts.
"The top 10 G.o.dly items in Second World!"
Huang Yi saw a post that was on the very top. There was no popular sticker tagged to it but the number of hits actually reached 10 billion! Huang Yi clicked into the post.
"I am Bai Chi, my race and cla.s.s is ancient scholar explorer. I am also an expert in Alchemy, so I am quite knowledgeable about treasures. Everyone knows that each country in Second World has their own territories, and it translated to about 200 plus ma.s.ses of land in the game. There were numerous treasures in these places, even I can only recognise a few of them even though I was knowledgeable in this field. Based on my understanding about these small amount of treasures, the top 10 treasures are ranked as below:
G.o.d CrystalRemarks: I don"t know what it is. But I used to see the mention of this item from the diary of the great Alchemist demon practiser "Silver Water". The only sentence which explained that G.o.d Crystal was the number 1 G.o.dly treasure in the world!
Tears of G.o.dsRemarks: As the name implies, Tears of G.o.ds was the tears by many G.o.ds and it was one of the ingredients to produce a G.o.dly equipment. In Second World, there were also 10 G.o.dly weapons that were known. To obtain another G.o.dly weapon other than the known ones, Tears of G.o.d was a vital component to create it. It was said that death of "Silver Water" was a.s.sociated with one drop of Tears of G.o.ds.
Contract of WaterRemarks: Everyone knows that after a contract is signed between the master and servant, the life of the servant will be closely linked with the master. If the master dies, the servant will also perish. The servant will only live if the master did the same. Therefore, Contract of Water was able to remove any contracts, even if the contract was with a G.o.d. In the Second World, the last G.o.d that was appointed as G.o.d was Ascender "Bloodfall". He used to be the slave of the G.o.d of Fire. After Bloodfall obtained the Contract of Water, he voided the contract to get rid of the shame he was suffering from and eventually he was appointed as a G.o.d.
Huang Yi continued on, this player only ranked the treasures based on what he was aware about, and not the entire list of treasures. There would definitely be some treasures that would be more versatile than the listed treasures.
While reading, his eyes landed on something familiar.
Tears of TimeRemarks: This was the tears from the G.o.d of Time. It contained the essence of time. Once consumed, both eyes of the person would become indestructible, and possessed the ability to look back at the past and into the future.
Tears of Time! Huang Yi suddenly recalled that in Heroes Prison, there was the Nine Headed Snake who stole the Tears of Time from the Death G.o.d, and was personally captured by the Death G.o.d himself. He was impressed by the powerful ability of Tears of Time!
30 minutes later, Huang Yi logged into Second World.
"Mr Miao Sha, you are back!" he heard Lao Si"s voice the moment he entered into Heroes Prison.
"Yup, I"m back," Huang Yi acknowledged and walked back into the stone chamber.
"Mr Miao Sha…" Lao Si called out to Huang Yi urgently, with anxiety in his eyes, and continued, "The period of your quest is only 3 months. Time is of the essence, please do your best! We will stay outside the door and await your good news!" After finishing, Lao Si and the other 4 wardens looked at Huang Yi with antic.i.p.ation on their faces.
Huang Yi nodded and entered the stone chamber.
The golden keys were still dancing in the sky as though they were stars in the night sky, and he could never reach for them.
Huang Yi lowered his head, and suddenly, he was stunned in his own gaze at the golden floor!
In that instance, there was something that flashed past in his brain!
Huang Yi bent down and looked carefully at what was on the ground. He was motionless under the sky full of dancing keys.
His thoughts mention to grab onto a strand of clue, and when he tried to pull it, the whole mystery has been unravelled!
He recalled everything that happened, with each details and every suspicion he had! Each insignificant details when they were connected, slowly cleared up the mysterious quest that he had and now, he could see the full picture.
After a long time, Huang Yi woke up from his thoughts, and smiled.
