Chapter 187: Stepping Stones

The farther north you go, the darker the sky becomes.

The occasional mountain peak is also exceptionally low.

Qin Ge had the illusion that he was leading his army towards the Abyss of Hell.

But logically speaking, this should not be, according to the information obtained in the past, the world of the Circle of Damnation is infinitely huge, and it is almost possible to enter another civilization hegemony circle by hundreds of thousands of kilometers to the north along the sealing place of the Death Civilization.

This is also Qin Ge's purpose, he wants to find Mu Xiaoye, because now it has been proven that the virus has not left, and their existence is not only explained by the behavior of various civilizations.

Of course, Qin Ge still had a choice, that is, to turn around and kill the virus Dewey entrenched in the Gale King City, and he now knew that the nuclear bomb dropped by Kunlun City did not completely destroy the Gale King City.

However, he finally chose the former, in the final analysis, he was too weak, he only had more than 20,000 soldiers left, maybe he could retake the Gale King City and drive away the virus Dewey, but he was really not the opponent of Kunlun City's nuclear bombs, in case Kunlun City threw a few more nuclear bombs at him, he was helpless at all.

"How long have we been walking?"

"Your Majesty, as of today, we have walked for three months and nine days, almost 100,000 kilometers. Zuo Liang replied.

I don't know why, in the past ten days, the hallucinations in Qin Ge's mind have become more and more serious, and he can't tell the difference between nothingness and reality, but he asked everyone and found that only he appeared in this situation, and everyone else, whether it was a commander or a soldier, was all normal.

"Your Majesty, we should consider building a city here and rebuilding our kingdom, we have missed too much good terrain along the way. Zuo Liang persuaded again.

"Zuo Liang, you tell you the truth, don't you really feel that something is wrong here?" Qin Ge closed his eyes and opened them again, he felt more and more depressed, the whole world was like a giant mouth, and the throat in the giant mouth was in front of them, and a strange aura spread out from there, gloomy, cold, and terrifying.

"No, Your Majesty, I can swear by my name, it's really nice here, even the sun seems to be shining a little, and if you look at those peaks, I guess they all contain high-quality ores. The terrain here is flat and wide, and it is a good place for us to rebuild our kingdom. ”

Zuo Liang patted his chest and assured, Qin Ge looked at him, his face was very gloomy, like a dead man's face, but Zuo Liang himself couldn't detect it, or did he do it on purpose?

The soldiers around him, whether it was the Black-Eyed Great Wall Garrison or the Gray-Eared Earth Ranger, were all the same.

"Your Majesty, you don't believe me, you should always believe in the super eyesight of the Gray Ear people, they can even see through invisibility, can't they see that something is wrong here?" Zuo Liang said again, and this was also the reason why Qin Ge himself suspected that he was hallucinating.

"Then move on. ”

Qin Ge stared at the farthest place, the throat of the huge mouth, whether he was hallucinating, or if this place was very wrong, he could see when he walked over and saw it, and it was impossible for him to settle here.

The army set out again, and every soldier had a smile on his face at any time, very happy and satisfied, as if the morale was really high.

But in Qin Ge's view, the aura of black death on their faces became more and more intense, and they had reached the point of being on the verge of death.

"I've got to figure out what to do, whether it's because my hallucinations are too bad or if I'm really in trouble. Qin Ge thought to himself.

"Report, Your Majesty, there is a big city in front of you, it is very prosperous, and the other party does not seem to have any ill will towards our army. ”

The soldier who went to explore the path returned, with a joyful smile on his face, if it weren't for Qin Ge's 'hallucination', he would really be the same as a normal person.

"There's no way back, go take a look!"

Qin Ge secretly thought, soon, a huge city really appeared in front of him, in the eyes of Zuo Liang and other soldiers, it was extremely prosperous, and in Qin Ge's eyes, it was ghostly and horizontal, ghosts chirping, black death was rushing to the sky, countless undead were howling, and on the gate of the big city, there were four big characters written - Forgotten City.

"Zuo Liang, take a look at it for me, what is this city called?"

"Your Majesty, this city is called the City of Peach Spring, and it seems that they are very friendly to us. Zuo Liang also smiled and said at this time, but Qin Ge had already determined at this time that it was not that he was hallucinating, but that he was the only one who saw the truth.

It's still weird, though.

"Rest in place and see for myself. ”

Qin Ge frowned, in his eyes, his army of 20,000 had completely turned into corpses, but they still maintained their normal movements, and they could still salute when they saw him coming.

Soon, Qin Ge walked in front of the Forgotten City, and what he saw was countless undead ghosts grinning at him, but he didn't take the initiative to attack.

After a long time, a person came out of the city gate, and Qin Ge was stunned, because he never thought that he would see this person here.

"Crabs?"

"Hehe, long time no see, sit down. The crab smiled slightly, and there was an extra set of tables and chairs in front of him.

"Why did you end up here?" Qin Ge had too many questions to ask.

"Here, this is my hometown, Taoyuan, hey, don't be surprised, this is the world where life and death coexist, also called the sad plane, and it is a bridge connecting the domain, the extraterritorial, the void and reality. The biggest feature of this place is that whoever comes will show their true colors, you see, those of your subordinates were originally dead people, and now they are just reborn by the law, but in fact they are still dead people, so here they are living dead people. ”

"And you, from reality, have not died once, so you can see a part of it for real. ”

"You brought me here?" Qin Ge asked again.

"That's right, as a loser, I can give you a decent ending. The crab sighed, "I've been paying attention to you until you have made so many unforgivable mistakes, and the king bomb in one hand has been beaten to pieces by you, so you can't continue any longer, because you are not the opponent of the virus at all, and you can't become the overlord of this round of civilization hegemony, instead of wasting the natural resources I gave you, it is better for me to retrain a successor." ”

Qin Ge was silent, and then asked, "I have a few questions, can you answer them for me?"

"Yes, as long as I can answer. ”

"Is the battle for hegemony of civilization, nine changes to civilization, and detachment from reality a scam set by a virus?"

"Yes and no, because civilization has nine turns, transcending reality is indeed the best way to fight the virus, but this road is too long, and the virus has too many ways to muddy the waters, but I don't think you have to worry about this matter anymore. ”

"Can I know what the essence of the virus is?" Qin Ge asked again.

"Despair. The crab replied with two words.

Qin Ge nodded, he didn't understand much, but he could understand it, because he remembered the word hope that Mu Xiaoye said.

"Okay, so what's my end? Got my memory erased?"

"No, solidify history. ”

There was an extra book in the crab's hand, "Become a stepping stone, now, is there anything else you want to say?"

"Will I ever see my parents again?"

"Yes, because all the people and things that concern you will be fixed in history, except for people like me, of course. ”

"Can you win the final victory?" Qin Ge suddenly asked.

"No, but I will solidify history at the right time and become a stepping stone for civilization to evolve again. ”

"Then I don't have anything to ask. ”

"Rest assured, you are not the first, nor will you be the last. The crab sighed, then opened the book and scribbled down three words.

- End of the book.

"Isn't it too cruel for me to do this?" said the crab as if to himself.

"It doesn't matter, he took the wrong path from the beginning, the descendants of the barbarians naturally have to be ruthless to others, and to themselves, but this kid thinks too much, but he doesn't break the game, it's normal to come to this point, and it is a good end to be able to solidify history, not to mention that he doesn't have no chance to drill out, such as me. Another figure emerged.

"Really?" said the crab, trying to add another name to the book.

"Bastard crab, you dare, Lao Tzu has been solidified once, and he doesn't want to be solidified again. ”

"Hehe, are you sure? If you don't solidify history, no one will know what you did, and now, you just need to leave your real name. ”

"I don't care, I'd rather be free and no one knows. ”

"Haha, let's go! A new war has just begun. ”
