Chapter 229 What Life Fears
"What's outside the city?"
Bolton asked his father.
His father was a journalist, writing headlines for newspapers.
"The outside of the city is desolate and dark. There are monsters hidden in the darkness. They can eat people. Even if they have a powerful sequence, humans will still be used as food by them."
"You can call them monsters, but of course, most people in the world call them gods."
"But this god is not worthy of our belief. They are alien gods and evil gods."
"Bolton, don't be curious, don't get in touch, don't imagine them, they are a group of devils."
Bolton listened to his father when he was a child, but when he grew up, he began to have his own identity. After he was born, he developed curiosity about things that no one around him knew. Isn't that cool?
He used this as his talking point and formed a secret society.
Because talking about foreign gods is taboo in the city.
Everyone in this world thinks that they are special, especially in their teenage years. Then after the age of 30, they will admit their mediocrity, and after the age of 50, they will accept everything and wait for death.
Bolton is of course no exception. He is young, he is special, he is like the protagonist in the novel, and this real world is his stage.
He thought so.
He thought it would go so well.
Until he saw his partner floating in the air in the darkness, and then the body was bent, twisted, and crushed, blood spurted, bones shattered, and then a big mouth in the darkness opened, swallowing and chewing.
Bolton hid in his home, the sound of chewing ringing over and over again in his mind.
It was clearly the same sound as when he was eating meat, but when he thought about it, he felt extremely terrifying.
At this time, he also thought of what he had asked his father before.
"Bolton, don't be curious, don't get in touch, don't imagine them, they are a group of devils."
Only then did he realize that it was the real devil.
It is the nature of life to be curious about the unknown.
Fear of position is also the nature of life.
"Dong dong dong!"
"Dong dong dong!"
He heard a knock on the door and his whole body trembled.
"Bolton, open the door!"
It was his father's voice. As if he found his backbone, he got out from under his bed and walked to the door.
He looked out through the peephole and saw darkness.
"Bolton!"
Another urge.
Bolton opened the door, and almost instantly, darkness rushed in from the crack in the door and filled the entire room. In the darkness, Bolton became a skeleton.
Using this room as a starting point, darkness swallowed up the entire city, and a city of one million people was instantly deserted.
From the perspective of advanced civilization, this power is so small and ridiculous.
But in lower civilizations, such power is powerful enough to cause fear.
One thing worth noting is that humans and other intelligent races actually possess nuclear weapons to destroy the alien gods. The alien gods are not actually that terrible.
If you study carefully, you will find that the combat power of all parties in this world is 10 for humans, 9 for sea people, 6 for underground creatures, 3 for elves, and 5 for outsiders.
With the exception of a very small number of elves, all other races can defeat the Outer Gods.
However, the rulers of this world are still foreign gods.
This is what is worth pondering.
Why?
Because of mystery.
Human beings classify alien gods into occultism. All individuals who see alien gods will be devoured. When you stare at and imagine alien gods, alien gods will also see you, approach you, and kill you.
This is true for humans, and even more so for other intelligent races.
They don't understand everything about the outer gods, so they are afraid of them.
What is life afraid of?
unknown!
Scenes like Bolton's are repeated over and over again in this world. Human beings maintain a certain degree of stability through their own strength, and the same is true for the sea people.
The elves used their scarcity to force every living entity to abide by the rules, making their combat power weaker and weaker while also avoiding the mental pollution of the outer gods.
The underground races were only slightly stronger than the outer gods and were the first to be invaded. In the long-term war with the outer gods, they were initially killed by the outer gods, and then began to believe in the outer gods and became believers of the outer gods.
The Outer God became powerful at this moment.
The combat power increased to 7.5 and approached the Sea Tribe. At this time, they controlled the underground races to invade from both sides, and became enemies of humans and Sea Tribes.
Facing two races that were more powerful than themselves, the Outer God even suppressed both sides to the point of retreat.
This kind of war has been going on across the entire planet, and the only protagonists in the world are the outer gods.
After 100 years, the outer gods gradually invaded the two intelligent races. Some humans and some sea races were polluted. They began to believe in the outer gods and then disintegrated the two races.
This is also when the two racial sequences reach their peak.
Some sequences can even achieve the same power as alien gods.
Humans and sea people sent these sequence possessors to the battlefield to fight with the outer gods, and they did achieve certain results, but fighting will always lead to death. Humans and sea people are not born powerful, and their top sequences are limited. of.
The sequence quickly faltered.
But at this time, the technology of humans and the sea tribe has reached its peak, and their overall strength and individual strength are still stronger than those of the outer gods.
If we analyze it, the Outer Gods will not win in the end.
However, the ending is not like this.
In the following years, the living space of humans and sea creatures was constantly suppressed and suppressed. They occupied only one-tenth of the surface area of the planet, while the weaker Outer Gods occupied 90%.
Even so, humans and sea creatures still did not use their highest combat power, nuclear weapons.
Why?
At this time, the advanced civilization had doubts.
The outside is the territory of the Outer Gods. They can obviously attack with nuclear weapons at will, but they did not.
They just kept witnessing death and then feared the Outer Gods.
The answer is actually very simple, because of the unknown.
The name of the Outer God itself comes from the unknown.
What is God?
Omniscient and omnipotent!
Since it is a god, can nuclear bombs solve the gods?
It is impossible in the subconscious of life.
Since it is impossible, there is no need to try, which leads to the decline of other races and the strength of the Outer Gods.
This is not a game, but an experiment.
The difference is that the game sets the rules and direction, while the experiment only sets the premise, and the result is unknown.
Even if this world is created by the Mechanical God, the Mechanical God's influence on this world is not that great, because Yan Xia also needs some data, and only the real things without any falsehood can achieve true perfection.
Yan Xia wants that perfection.
Is this the end of the world?
Of course not, in fact, it has just begun.
