Chapter 4: Worldview
Fortunately, this path does not require much time
The Sword of King Goujian of Yue is the first sword maiden to appear in this world. The instance "The Sword of King Goujian of Yue" reenacts the story of the first battle between the Sword of King Goujian and her wielder against the Yuan Gao, in which they achieved victory.
However, these ghosts and spirits can harm us; their swords can easily pierce our bodies; their guns can shoot infinitely without bullets; they can also transform into magical girls to unleash devastating super magic. Dear members of parliament, I must admit, it is time for us to meet God
Is there only one backpack? The passing years began to hesitate, as he did not know which items should be packed into the backpack.
Fortunately, there were no mistakes! The Flow Year Calendar here was greatly surprised, while on the other side, Gu Han let out a sigh of relief. The more than fifty items and their locations listed in this strategy were memorized by him over the course of a month. If he were to take even one item incorrectly, the Flow Year Calendar would refuse to help him pack and would instead take care of it itself
This is quite normal, as it is none other than the passage of time itself that is being plundered. In the face of an apocalyptic scenario, the knowledge of stockpiling precious food and water is something every homebody possesses. This also indirectly affirms that the warehouse can lead to the place where the passage of time resides.
"What is it? Is there something dirty on my face?" Liu Nianli felt that Gu Han's expression was akin to that of a panda seen in a zoo.
"Stop, who are you? You are not allowed to enter. I have a gun!" Gu Han approached the door of the room, and just as he was about to knock, he heard threatening words coming from inside. However, the voice was so tense that it was somewhat cracking.
"Alright, wait for me a moment, I will tidy up my things and come right away." Liu Nianli had no doubts about the brother who had come to pick him up, and happily returned to the house to pack his luggage.
System prompt: Task update, Task 3: Find the annual calendar completed
"Certainly, no problem." Liu Nianli responded cheerfully.
The second purpose is to seek and cultivate the backbone of human society: the sword bearers, creating an illusory world to hone their combat skills, as the mortality rate in actual combat is too high; fifty percent of sword bearers do not survive their first five real battles
Of course, it's no problem. Your mother is the police chief. She is currently protecting a large group of citizens who are hiding in the underground storage room of the museum, which is very safe. Therefore, she asked me to take you there
"Ah, there is a small piece of vegetable leaf at the corner of your mouth!" Gu Han casually wiped the corner of Liu Nian's mouth and said, "Alright, let's go meet your sister Zhang. She is almost dying of anxiety."
Although the main entrance of the grocery store was open, Gu Han did not enter through the front door, as the interior path had long been blocked by some collapsed plywood. The only access point was on the side of the grocery store, in a small room used as a warehouse, where the security grille had been partially removed, and the window could be easily opened
"You have no idea, the streets are now filled with Yuan Gao. Their noses are as sensitive as a dog's, and if you are carrying food, they will track you down by the scent, putting your life in danger. In the past few days, I have seen too many people killed by Yuan Gao simply because of the food they had on them," Gu Han said sadly.
"Classmate Liu Nianli, may I borrow your sword for a while?" Gu Han asked, pointing to a long sword hanging on the wall. This was merely an ordinary long sword, but it held considerable significance in Liu Nianli's plan
In the words of the then U.S. Secretary of Defense, those insurgents were like ghosts and phantoms, visible yet intangible. Our brave soldiers fired off tens of thousands of rounds, yet could not inflict even the slightest harm upon them
In just five days, the entire global defense system completely collapsed, countless cities were reduced to ruins by various attacks, and innumerable humans perished at the hands of the invaders. According to statistics from that time, in a mere five days, the Earth's population of 7 billion was reduced by two-thirds, leaving fewer than 2 billion people.
There is only one opportunity in the cold of winter; if it is missed, the passage of time will not allow for a second chance. Forcing a second attempt may instead lead to a conflict with the flow of time, arousing suspicion from the other party and wasting even more time
The initial phase of the war ended in a complete defeat for humanity. As beings from a two-dimensional realm, the Yuan Gan are inherently immune to all three-dimensional means of attack. They appear within the human visual field, yet their bodies seem to exist in another world. No matter how many bullets are fired or how large the missiles are, they pass through their bodies without causing any harm
"Are you a classmate from the Yearly Calendar? Please do not misunderstand me, I am someone sent by Sister Zhang Yaru to find you!" Gu Han replied according to the standard answer in the guide.
In order to restore the true combat environment and process as much as possible, all battle instances in "Sword Maiden OL" are adapted from historically significant and well-known battles that actually occurred. Every scene, every building, every landscape, every enemy, and every NPC in the instances is based on verifiable historical battles, representing real instances that truly existed, rather than being the product of fanciful imagination by a group of enthusiasts.

At this moment in the copy, the Sword Ancestor, who has been sung about for a thousand years, is still a cowardly ordinary person, hiding in this family-owned "Honest Man Grocery Store" and waiting for death without the slightest awareness of being a savior. The cold task is to find this man and guide him onto the path of the savior
In fact, he is simply talking nonsense; whether you bring food or not, Yuanxuan will not care. However, if you ask Liunian to pack food, it will not only waste a significant amount of time but also slow down the entire pace of the journey
For example, the novice initial dungeon where Gu Han is located: "The Sword of King Goujian." The original story of this dungeon is well-known in human society, just like the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, as well as Emperor Qin and Emperor Wu of Han. There is not a single person on Earth who is unaware of this story, as it represents the end of one era and the beginning of another.
Pushing open the door to the warehouse, the staircase was already blocked by fallen rocks, and there was a hole in the ceiling above. Gu Han leaped up with force, reaching for the jagged edge of the broken ceiling, and with a pull-up, he effortlessly arrived at the second floor of the grocery store
The room where the annual calendar is hidden is easy to find; it is the only intact room on the entire second floor.
However, the four gruesome scars on this brother's face appear truly terrifying
This is a story that is sung by the masses and is familiar to all of humanity
Is this the Sword Ancestor from my childhood? Although I know that this might raise the other party's suspicions, Gu Han couldn't help but scrutinize the appearance of the person before him. This was the young Sword Ancestor, unlike the one who stood with a sword in countless photos and paintings, facing tens of thousands of enemies without flinching. At this moment, the Sword Ancestor's face was filled with expressions like "no facial hair, unreliable in action" and "very foolish and naive".
Upon closer inspection of the items the other party has packed, it turns out that they are all the things I wanted to take with me, not a single one missing, all of them have been identified by the other party, and I can no longer think of any additional items I need to bring.
Classmate Liu Nianli, you can only carry something the size of one backpack at most!" Gu Han hurriedly said, "The basement of the museum has been blocked off, leaving only a very narrow entrance. If you bring too many packages, you will not be able to pass through this entrance.
As described in the strategy, upon hearing that he was sent by his mother, Liu Nianli opened the door without the slightest hesitation
At this moment, only three minutes have just passed in the copy of Gu Han.
It appeared so suddenly, so powerfully
It was previously mentioned that the development and operation of the game "Sword Daughter OL" are driven by two main purposes. The first purpose is to alleviate the mental stress of a large number of individuals who have nothing to do and are merely existing, enriching their lives in a virtual world
Let us go!" With a heavy heart, I closed the door of the grocery store, carrying with me the naive and unknowing passage of time, unaware of the hardships that lay ahead.
Only this response can make the annual calendar lower its guard and actively open the door. Do not underestimate these few words; if they are not said correctly, the annual calendar will not open the door at all. In that case, one would have to wait another hour for the system to forcibly open the door.
The strategy clearly states that if the flow year calendar is left to tidy up by itself, it will take a full twenty-five minutes... Completing the task within an hour is out of the question. Therefore, Gu Han must find everything in one go, with the fastest speed and one hundred percent accuracy.
They appeared before the terrified humanity with the grace of saviors, engaging in life-and-death battles against the powerful Yuanjuns. Ultimately, a geopolitical landscape emerged on Earth a thousand years later, where humanity, relying on eight super base cities, fought battles concerning the right to survival against the Yuanjuns
"What, are you sent by my mother?!" A wave of joyful cheers erupted in the room, "Is my mother alright?"
"Why? Mother has saved so many people, she must be in great need of a lot of food!" Liu Nianli did not understand.
Why is it called "Yuan Kou"? It is probably because "Er Kou" sounds too simplistic, and "Ci Kou" sounds too secondary.
The protagonists of the story are two: one is our sword maiden—King Goujian's sword; the other is her first sword bearer—Liunian Li, a man who is revered by later generations as the ancestor of swords.
"Hurry, let me help you!" Gu Han had no time to let the flow of time hesitate. He quickly walked into the room and spent less than forty seconds finding various items such as a toothbrush, towel, notebook, pen, iPad 11, iPhone 14, and more than fifty other miscellaneous items, which he then stuffed into Liunianli's backpack.
Just as all of humanity was preparing to close their eyes and await death, to迎接 destruction, the sword maidens appeared
"Uncle... Brother... Please come in, would you like something to eat? I still have plenty of instant noodles here, let's have a bowl to fill our stomachs!" Liu Nianli originally thought he was looking for an uncle-level guy, but he never expected to see a brother who was only a few years younger than himself after opening the door.
The story of "The Sword of King Goujian of Yue" takes place nearly a thousand years ago in the year 2024 AD, when countless cracks mysteriously appeared in the dimensional barrier between the three-dimensional and two-dimensional realms. A large number of beings from the two-dimensional world surged through these cracks into the three-dimensional realm, initiating a brutal war that lasted for over a thousand years.
Gu Han should honestly follow the path marked by the standard strategy, rather than attempting to toss a coin and hoping to be placed in front of the calendar of fate... There are no shortcuts to this task... Gu Han has searched for ten years without finding any clues
Humanity has given these enemies from the second dimension a name filled with anger and sorrow: Yuanjiao
System prompt: Task update, Task 4: Gain the trust of the annual calendar, lead the annual calendar to the Jingchu Provincial Museum
The young man stared in astonishment at the older brother in front of him, who was stuffing various items into his backpack. This brother seemed to know his room better than he did himself. There were many things he had forgotten where he had placed them, or they had fallen under the bed, in the crevices of the table, and other places he could not find, yet the other party found them without wasting a second.
Everything is on schedule
Oh my, how could this happen! The calendar of fleeting years had no doubts about Gu Han's words. He unhesitatingly discarded the food in his hand and then turned to his wardrobe, thinking he should at least take some clothes with him.
The calendar of the years is not difficult to find, as its location has been marked countless times by various guides, and the quickest routes have also been indicated repeatedly by these guides
"Classmate Liu Nianli, you must not bring any food at all." Upon seeing Liu Nianli rushing towards the large pile of food in his room, Gu Han quickly spoke up to stop him
Upon entering the warehouse, Gu Han found it to be in a state of utter disarray, as if it had been ransacked by someone
Brother, let's go, I really want to see Mom soon! At this moment, Liunianli has already put on his backpack and is standing at the door, urging Guhan.
