Chapter 523 The Inevitability of Destruction



Jiang Ran continued flipping through the notes, from the third city lord to the information left by the fourth city lord.

[The formation is gradually being corrupted. I have discovered this sad fact. I cannot judge the actions of the Third Generation Lord, but I can do my best to protect the entire City of Paradise.]

[The formation can only be maintained by the city lord! But the formation must be maintained for no more than ten years, otherwise it will be tainted by malevolent energy that cannot be eradicated!]

No wonder none of the city lords have ever been re-elected. The first two city lords didn't want to compete, the third city lord had no choice, and every city lord after that, even if they wanted to continue sitting in this position, had to consider the fact of the Demon Fire!

After all city lords abdicate, they must go to a secluded place to suppress the evil within their bodies. If the evil shows signs of becoming uncontrollable, please commit suicide immediately!

The city lord represents a right, but also a responsibility.

Each generation of city lords recorded their observations and experiences in a notebook, and the small notebook carried the inheritance of the entire Paradise City.

Finally, there were the words left by the ninth city lord, who was also the previous city lord.

To prevent the sheep from interfering with the lives of the city's residents, our ancestors endowed them with the properties of stealth and penetration. However, this effect was gradually disappearing until one day, I saw a shepherd lead a large flock of sheep into the city.

Among those sheep, one turned into a demon.

Perhaps we've all overlooked one point: these sheep have been consuming evil for a long time, and this evil has accumulated within their bodies, eventually forming another demon!

I secretly dealt with the demon, but that doesn't cure it completely. We still need sheep to neutralize the evil, so I can't just drive them all away.

So it really was the city lord who secretly dealt with that demon. Was the demon Jiang Ran saw that night the other demon, the very same demon from the beginning?

[I made these sheep reveal their true forms, only to discover that almost all of them had already developed a malignant aggregate within their bodies!]

So, is that what dwarfism is?

If these malignant entities are allowed to continue feeding on grass, one day they will evolve into demons one after another. But I can't stop them from feeding on grass, otherwise the residents of Paradise City will suffer!

All I can do is keep an eye on the flocks of sheep that come to the City of Paradise each day, and secretly eliminate those sheep that might turn into demons.

Good heavens, this solution resulted in thousands of sheep simply vanishing into thin air. The city lord is truly extravagant!

No matter how hard we try to salvage the situation, I can still sense that we are gradually heading towards our doom.

The destruction of the City of Paradise can only be delayed, not avoided.

One day, all the sheep will either turn into demons or be eliminated because they can no longer bear the evil within them. They will no longer be able to find new sheep. If they could, the previous city lords would have done that long ago.

Therefore, the city of paradise is simply heading down a path that is bound to be destroyed, and any struggle is meaningless.

A phantom appeared in the room. Jiang Ran turned around and saw that it was the demon that had appeared that night.

First, the evil was extracted from him, and then he was possessed by the evil again. Jiang Ran couldn't help but feel sorry for this guy.

"So you see, the entire City of Paradise will inevitably be consumed by the endless fire of desire, and perhaps it's not just the City of Paradise."

"I know what you're trying to say: that because of the ever-expanding desires, humanity will eventually destroy itself, won't it?"

Jiang Ran smiled and said, "But humans are always a group of creatures that are good at creating and resolving conflicts. I believe that nothing is absolutely inevitable, including destruction and rebirth."

"Just like the struggling city of heaven." Flames erupted from the demon's body, engulfing him completely. "Let's wait and see."

"shepherd."

The world shattered, and Jiang Ran returned to the ocean of the Dream Sea. He stretched, feeling quite tired after the trip!

Fortunately, he finally made it out, without expending any mental energy or using any "miracles" at the last moment, allowing him to face the next level in full condition!

As expected, the power of the near-god and the demonic fire on his body disappeared. It's good that the demonic fire disappeared, to avoid any mishaps.

Five-sevenths of the ship's hull has turned colorful, and only two more dreams remain to completely clear the entire Dream Sea!

Jiang Ran rowed the boat towards the next dream.

"Hey, classmate, please don't fall asleep, the library is closing soon!"

Jiang Ran opened his eyes and saw a foreign girl in her early twenties wearing a uniform reminding him. He looked around and realized that this place seemed to be a university library, and he was sleeping on the table.

Moonlight streamed into the library through the windows, indicating that it was already quite late.

"Hey, classmate?" Seeing that Jiang Ran was a little stunned, the girl waved her hand. "The library is about to close, you should go back to your dorm first."

The girl in front of him was clearly just an ordinary librarian, not the protagonist of this dream.

The library is not located in the Dragon Kingdom, which means that the dream's owner is not from the Dragon Kingdom either. This narrows down the scope considerably!

"Um."

So, he was supposed to be going back to his dorm, but Jiang Ran didn't know what his dorm room number was in his dream.

The protagonist of the dream is definitely not far from the starting point of the dream. Jiang Ran's gaze swept across the library, but he did not find anyone else. It seems that the person should not be in the library.

So he immediately got up and left the library, and could still hear the girl muttering softly behind him.

"Sleeping alone in the library so late, without taking a single book, is it because you've broken up with your boyfriend?"

Based on the girl's language, it was easy to determine that this was the Ironblood Kingdom! Therefore, those who met the criteria were directly selected!

This is Bates' dream!

Bates was one of the earlier SSS-level ghost story tellers Jiang Ran knew. Since arriving on Blue Star, this guy had been slacking off and not doing anything serious, and had gradually faded from Jiang Ran's sight.

However, Jiang Ran never forgot that he was the one who possessed the [miracle]!

Regardless of whether he is a fallen god or a substitute god, at least so far, Bates still holds a sliver of goodwill towards Jiang Ran.

Reaching his dream isn't necessarily a bad thing; at least you can see clearly what he really wants!

As Jiang Ran left the library, she saw a familiar figure flipping through a book under the streetlights.

Upon seeing Jiang Ran arrive, Bates closed the book in his hand, then took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it.

"Smoking is prohibited at school, how dare you be so brazen?"

"Anyway, it's all in my own dream, so it doesn't matter anymore."
