The end of the world starts with failing the exam

Chapter 418 The Lost Dungeon (Part )

Although the ancient descendants in the other world are all kinds of strange and look like anything, Chen Jing has always felt that they are no different from humans, or that... when the intelligence and thinking of living creatures reach a certain level, they actually develop in a similar way. trend.

At least that's the case in most cases.

then.

The city of Paradise is full of old descendants.

without any exaggeration.

At least 40% of the old descendants of the entire other world are in Paradise City.

"At that time, Paradise City was the largest gathering place of ancient descendants in the world, and it was also the only force that could ignore any sect rules and even launch a full-scale war because of a disagreement."

"The city lord of Paradise City is an extremely powerful old descendant and the spiritual leader of all the old descendants of Paradise City. They originally wanted to create a city purely composed of old descendants, in which everything is equal..."

"I seem to have heard this concept from others." Chen Jing touched his chin thoughtfully, and Li Mobai's figure flashed in his mind, and then another blurry figure flashed past, which was the preface. night.

"Anyway, that's what they thought at first, and they actually started doing it... But the specific development process within their city can be referenced by human civilization in any period."

Qiao Youning smiled and didn't seem to think there was anything strange about this.

"From stability and prosperity, everyone was full of hope, to those in power unconsciously dividing classes, and then the whole city began to deteriorate, as if it was stuck in a quagmire... Everyone was struggling in it, and no one could climb out. "

During Qiao Youning's narration, Chen Jing listened very carefully. In other words, everyone present, including the black-haired mouse, listened very carefully with their ears pricked up.

"The city was originally connected to the outside world, but later due to a high-level meeting, the city closed its doors and completely isolated itself from the world. Only a small number of loyal guards could obtain the qualifications to enter and exit Paradise City to search for resources and materials from the outside world. …”

"Except for those guards, the rest of the lower-class descendants have become the property of the higher-ups. The meaning of their lives is to squeeze out their own lives in exchange for corresponding value and contribute to the higher-ups."

"Those who are lucky become the 'toys' or 'tools' of the higher-ups, while those who are unlucky become the 'fuel' of the city. They spend the rest of their lives squeezing their own value to maintain this perfection in their minds. world……"

"No one resisted?" Wei Nan asked with a frown.

"No."

Qiao Youning shook her head and calmly recounted this period of history.

"Those descendants of the lower class have always lived in the confusing dream created by the high-level powerful. They firmly believe that this city is the most beautiful and safest in the world, and that the outside world is where wild beasts run rampant and there is no order..."

After saying that, Qiao Youning suddenly smiled.

"But you also know that lies will always be exposed one day. After being exposed, some people will never be deceived again."

"Starting from the mutiny that broke out at the Sky Burning Festival in Paradise City, the city was completely in chaos. It was a civil war between the old descendants, and it was also the beginning of the decline of Paradise City."

"The war did not last long. After all, the top combat forces in Paradise City were on the side of power, so the old descendants who participated in the mutiny were quickly suppressed, and only a few people escaped..."

"Among the old descendants who escaped capture, there was one named 'Nora'. Although his strength was far inferior to those powerful beings in Paradise City, he directly pushed the entire city to destruction..."

According to Qiao Youning, the old descendant named "Nora" is probably only around Sequence 3, or even Sequence 2, and is considered the most standard low-level person in Paradise City.

Yes.

A city built by countless descendants with beautiful dreams has gradually been divided into three, six, and nine levels in a not too long period of time.

And he is just such a low-level person in the ninth level.

While escaping from pursuit.

Because of some coincidence.

He discovered an ancient ritual in the deepest part of the dungeon.

"That set of rituals existed in the old days. According to the internal records of our temple, there should be a stone tablet next to the ritual, which clearly records the function of the ritual and how to operate it..."

"The stone tablet clearly states that it is a 'divine ritual'. Once someone activates the ritual, the surviving ancient god will be summoned from the pale history in an instant, and the person who initiates the ritual will Then it will become a sacrifice and be completely annihilated.”

When he heard this, Chen Jing had already guessed what happened next.

It's actually not that complicated.

He is just an ordinary person who is suffering from oppression. Suddenly one day he no longer wants to live, and he happens to pick up a button that can bring the end of the world to an instant... So is there any need to think about it? He must have hit it right away!

"After Nora started the ritual, Paradise City was instantly eroded by the ancient god. No one had time to escape. Even the most powerful ancient descendants were swallowed up by the ancient god in an instant... Paradise City was also It became a dead place and a vague history.”

Listening to Qiao Youning's last words, everyone's expressions couldn't help but become complicated.

Wei Nan felt relieved, with happiness written all over his face, while Yan Que was in a daze thoughtfully, as if thinking about whether "Nora" was right or wrong to do this.

Chen Bofu, on the other hand, was smoking silently. To him, it didn't matter what nonsense he was being oppressed and had to fight to the death. All he cared about was the fall of the ancient god from the underground city...

As for Chen Jing.

His expression was the calmest, because he felt that what Nora did was not unexpected.

After all.

Nora is just an ordinary person.

An ordinary person who is extremely tired.

An ordinary person whose ideas are neither noble nor vulgar.

He just doesn't want to live anymore, or in other words, he no longer has the desire to live. In the continuous struggles, his ideals have been extinguished, and his spirit has long been squeezed dry and turned into an empty skeleton.

So when he encounters an opportunity that can destroy everything, he will naturally not let it go.

He just wants to ruin everything.

including yourself.

That's it.

"What is the 'Styx' that the rat spirit mentioned just now?" Chen Boxu asked with a frown.

"The liquid substances left behind after the arrival of the ancient gods flooded the entire underground city, and even turned the wasteland surface where the underground city is located into a long and endless river."

"According to the records of the temple, there are many corpses from Paradise City in that river. They should be the residue spit out after being swallowed by the ancient gods. To this day, everyone is still floating in that river that exudes a stench that reaches the sky."

Qiao Youning held her chin with one hand and looked at the black-haired mouse in front of her with a smile.

“People at the top, people at the bottom, everyone rots together and stinks.”

"Perhaps this is the fairness that Paradise City has long forgotten."
