Lu Cang and Luo Jiutian returned to a mountain cave, which was a hiding place for the human race.
The people inside the cave were barely clothed.
They all looked panicked.
Lu Cang's explanation for his origins was very simple: he came from the future and was here to help the human race in the present.
This is just a copy; there's no need to worry about information leakage.
More importantly, this explanation is the quickest way for them to understand their origins.
"No matter where you come from, humans welcome you."
Luo Jiutian smiled helplessly at Lu Cang: "These humans are the only remaining humans in this era."
"Our human race has been purged."
Lu Cang nodded; he already knew the background of this instance.
The Great Devastation – The Period of Liquidation
This copy is not synchronized with the current era.
It's a bygone era.
It has been about four thousand years since the era of the Illusionary Realm, so Lu Cang was somewhat surprised that he could open the guild base teleportation channel.
Dungeons are a very special existence in the Fantasy World.
It is a special location that only players can enter; the native inhabitants of this world cannot enter directly through normal means.
Of course, there were quite a few unconventional methods as well. In his previous life, Lu Cang had used other means to get Xin Baiyue into the Forbidden Zone of Light.
However, this method is not as convenient as guild teleportation.
The reasons for the formation of dungeons have been studied and discussed by countless scholars in the Fantasy Realm. There are many different theories among the scholars regarding the formation of dungeons.
However, there are ultimately a few schools of thought that are more reliable.
The theory of historical imprint.
Formed from the imprints left by real events in the history of the fantasy world, the existence of dungeons simulates the real situation at that time, and choosing different paths in dungeons is also simulating different developments in history.
The doctrine of trials.
The existence of dungeons is a test for the formation of the illusionary realm, a means of training created for players to improve their strength.
Derivative spacetime theory.
The existence of a copy is itself a hypothesis about spacetime, assuming that something might happen in a certain spacetime. It may seem like a historical imprint, but it can actually be completely virtual, without needing to have actually happened in history.
There are many schools of thought.
As for which version is true, it has not been fully verified even in later generations.
Or rather, all possibilities exist.
How dungeons are formed and what their purpose is have always been a mystery in the Fantasy Realm. Perhaps only the truly omniscient can know the answer to this mystery.
However, there is at least one thing Lu Cang is certain of.
Luo Jiutian did indeed serve as the Human Emperor in human history.
Luo Jiutian was the Human Emperor of the Great Cataclysm era, and also the Human Emperor who led the human race to preserve the last spark of life, allowing the human race to survive the darkest era.
Lu Cang swept his gaze across all the humans in the cave.
"Is that all?" Lu Cang looked slightly surprised.
According to the human race's history, Luo Jiutian ended the Great Cataclysm and was thus sacrificed and put to eternal sleep at the age of 17. Luo Jiutian's sacrifice is also a regrettable chapter in the history of the human race. If Luo Jiutian had been given enough time, he might have become an even more powerful being.
Unfortunately, history has no "what ifs".
The remaining 528 members of the human race protected by Luo Jiutian continued the human race's lineage to this day, and the human race has once again prospered in the world.
The Great Cataclysm was the darkest era in human history.
At this point, there were a total of 528 people in the cave, which perfectly matches the historical record.
Among them, there are 490 people who are almost entirely incapable of fighting, ranging from levels 20 to 50.
Only the remaining 38 people are above level 60.
But only two people can truly be considered as having combat power: Luo Jiutian, who is level 140.
Truly top-tier combat power.
He ignited the divine fire and possessed the full power of a demigod.
The divine position represents balance.
In terms of combat strength, among all the people Lu Cang has met in this life, only Xin Baiyue can win with certainty; the others, even the angels from the forbidden zones, are no match for him.
As for Tu Zhanmo, he can win after breaking the crystal and returning to his original form, but he still can't defeat Luo Jiutian when he's sealed.
However, this made Lu Cang unable to laugh.
The Dead Ashes dungeon, a dungeon even more difficult than Despair, and it's paired with a teammate with such high combat power. Just thinking about it makes my scalp tingle.
The other one is named Deid, level 120, and is an archer.
Lu Cang opened the guild's territory.
Upon entering the guild's territory, there was no castle or garden, only a dilapidated and desolate open space.
"I see."
"But that's enough."
Lu Cang revealed the teleportation portal to the guild's territory: "Anyway, let them come over first."
"What is this?" Luo Jiutian asked, puzzled, upon seeing the teleportation channel.
"It's a safe place for now."
Luo Jiutian and Dai De exchanged a glance.
They nodded to each other.
Humanity is facing a life-or-death crisis, and there's no time left to grapple with the issue of trust.
Every opportunity we can offer is an opportunity we should offer.
Things can't get any worse.
Before long, Lu Cang had brought all the humans except for Daide and Luo Jiutian into the guild's territory.
They were also provided with plenty of food and water, as well as new clothes.
Although the guild stronghold was now just a bare patch of grass, Lu Cang's backpack contained everything he needed; there was enough food for them to eat for more than a year.
“Sky, if you really are from the future, you should know that we intend to stop the reckoning.”
Luo Jiutian said this to Lu Cang.
"Yes, I know."
Just as the two were talking, Lu Cang heard a commotion around him.
"Tsk, here we go again."
The three left the cave, and on the ground outside the cave, black void faceless gradually condensed, and looking around, there were thousands of them in the forest.
They held their heads high, their long, thin arms hanging down, repeating in a chaotic and shrill voice: "Clearance."
"Liquidation".
"Liquidation".
Within these faceless voids, there is a twisted monster floating hundreds of meters high in mid-air.
-------------------------------------
Void Terminator
[Level: 150]
[HP: 5.4 trillion]
[Trait - The Pursuer: Able to see all races that should be purged; the race this creature is responsible for is: Humans]
[Trait - Enhanced Cleansing: Every so often, a more powerful Void creature will be assigned to carry out the cleansing operations for this race. The killing of this creature will accelerate this process.]
[Description: The void creatures that constantly spawn alongside the purge will kill everything that should be purged.]
-------------------------------------
There's no point in killing them.
The more you kill them, the more void creatures will come.
These faceless voids all turned their round heads toward the direction where Luo Jiutian and Lu Cang were located, and their perfectly smooth black round heads cracked open, revealing smiles.
Luo Jiutian stretched his body and looked at Lu Cang, saying, "That's the only way through. Can we kill them?"
Lu Cang: "Yes."
"Not only can we, but we need to kill them multiple times."
"Kill them a few more times? The more you kill, the more and stronger the Purifiers will become," Dade said, frowning.
"Although they won't appear immediately, the more times we kill them, the more disadvantaged we become..."
Faced with such a rebuttal, Lu Cang responded, "I don't know if you've noticed, but although killing them will make the next Purifier stronger, the interval between their appearances will also be longer."
"Luo Jiutian, if you want to end the purge plan, you should need enough time to avoid being disturbed."
Luo Jiutian nodded.
"Although the specifics are unclear, if the liquidation is to be terminated, the safer the better."
"Our destination is the shattered Lotvis, where the reckoning began."
"Okay, so let's kill a few more times and get started."
-------------------------------------
【Biospace】
Bai Lu and his group took little time to deal with the warden guarding outside the prison.
With 120 billion HP, it was no problem at all for the members of the Godslayer Guild, whose average level was 90.
"Now we can see the whole picture, meow."
"There are two halls. One hall has a final restriction, so you can't see inside. The other hall is empty. There are about thirteen other rooms, one of which is a treasure room, and it looks like there are traps lying in ambush."
"There are two rather special rooms, they seem to be some kind of sealed rooms, sealing away something, meow."
Bai Lu and Xiu Mi shared a view, looking towards the other rooms. The paths here were intricate and complex, somewhat like a maze.
"The two halls in the very center should be the boss rooms."
"The two seals are marked with symbols, the symbols of the gods of Kumironi. Since we are imprisoned, this place should be the enemy's lair, and what is sealed in the enemy's lair should be what we need to rescue."
Bai Lu explained it this way.
"And there are other prisons, so it seems we're not the only ones locked up. We should be able to get information from the other inmates."
"Our first goal is to break through those two seals, and along the way, we'll contact the prisons to see if we can gather any other intelligence. Sister Leng, you go ahead in your ethereal state to investigate the details."
Bai Lu issued the command in this manner.
Soon, the entire team followed Bai Lu's instructions and headed towards the location of the first seal.
The first room we passed was a prison, with a warden present.
These prison wardens were looking at the road, right at the intersection.
Bai Lu gave the order to kill the warden.
With Leng Qingying present, killing almost goes unnoticed. In just over ten seconds, the warden with 120 billion health points was annihilated by the group.
They also obtained the key from the warden, which allowed them to easily open the prison gates.
Upon opening the door, one finds several young girls with long, emerald-green hair, dressed in the robes of the Kumironi cult.
The girls were extremely surprised to see the Godslayer Guild members arrive.
Who are you?
When faced with their questions, Bai Lu said directly, "We'll talk about our origins later. Tell us about the situation here first."
