Chapter 224 Destruction
Chapter 224 Destruction
"The Vatican advocates that fairies should control and guide humanity, which is different from the Guild. If a conflict occurs, it will not only be a matter for fairies, but also affect humanity. It's too complicated."
"..."
Qin Ming hadn't thought of this before; he was planning to either eliminate the eight gods or defeat them outright.
After all, with the world's spiritual resources becoming increasingly scarce, it is becoming more and more difficult for fairies to cultivate.
The process of bestowing titles upon gods will be even more difficult.
In the past few hundred years, apart from Qin Ming, Wuxian, and Li Qingning, no other demon has been granted godhood within the guild's sphere of influence.
Even immortals are rare.
This is considered the peak period for the association.
Moreover, as spiritual energy becomes increasingly scarce, many demons have begun to compete for cultivation resources. Mu Si and his two companions tracked down A Gen and Xiao Hei and the others all the way for the Heavenly Pearl.
Similar incidents only occurred because we lacked intelligence; otherwise, countless more demons would surely have been drawn into the fray.
This also suggests that even greater struggles in the future are almost inevitable.
Even if the association doesn't take the initiative, the Holy See and other deities will still intervene to compete for cultivation resources.
However, it seems that although Laozi did not advocate declaring war, he was not without preparations.
Just then, Laozi suddenly paused, "Hmm..."
"?"
Qin Ming was about to take a sip of tea when Lao Jun's expression changed, and then his brows furrowed slightly.
His reaction usually means that something important has happened.
Laozi is a deity who has cultivated for thousands of years and is also a spiritual being; very few things can cause his emotions to fluctuate greatly.
In recent centuries, the time when he was most enraged was when Naga tried to attack Li Qingning.
"There seems to be some situation inside the door."
"Let's go take a look."
Qin Ming put down his teacup and stood up, as did Lao Jun. Then the two disappeared from the spot.
……
Within the gate of all living beings.
When the two arrived, Pan Jing, west Mu, and several other curators, including Kari, had already arrived.
They are responsible for managing the daily operation of the Gate of All Beings.
Fix bugs, or issue some tasks or events.
After all, it's impossible for the six gods to do everything themselves.
"This is?"
Upon their arrival, the two saw a giant crater, hundreds of meters in diameter, appear on a grassland, as if its layers had been pierced, with a deep abyss below!
A scene resembling a sky full of stars.
They exchanged a glance, their gazes serious.
This is another layer of barrier used to separate all living beings.
Logically speaking, this world, from the inside out, has been restored to the most realistic extent possible by the six gods working together.
Below should be real soil and rock layers, which is impossible to penetrate with the power within this Gate of All Beings.
Even if you level up to hundreds or even thousands of levels, it's the same; it's just a matter of updating the server.
Pan Jing and several curators were making repairs when they saw the two men approaching. They said, "Laojun, Lord Qin Ming, you've arrived."
"Director, what's going on?"
"Someone accidentally triggered a special ability, which seems to have damaged part of the framework that constructs the Gate of All Beings, resulting in the direct killing of a super high-level BOSS. Lady Qingning is currently repairing it."
"Is it very strong?"
Qin Ming inquired.
If this is a bug, then it's too outrageous; it's like directly breaking through dimensions.
Pan Jing shook his head and explained, "The spiritual power isn't strong, but the destructive power is quite astonishing, far exceeding the limit that person's spiritual power can reach. This area is under the jurisdiction of Curator Ximu, and according to his information, it seems to be caused by that person accidentally awakening his spiritual abilities."
"The specifics are still under investigation."
Director Ximu walked over and bowed slightly. "It was my dereliction of duty. I will investigate thoroughly."
"I believe the curator would not have caused this to happen due to negligence."
Lao Jun smiled.
Although the damage was considerable, it has now been gradually repaired by Qingning.
After all, it was a world that the six of them built together, and even if it was just a "surface world," it wasn't something that anyone could easily destroy.
Even a true god would have to put in a lot of effort.
"I gonna go see."
Qin Ming's eyes flashed, and he decided to go and take a look, though he had some guesses in his mind.
The next moment, Qin Ming hurriedly disappeared from the spot.
"?"
Lao Jun greeted Li Qingning, exchanged a glance, and then followed.
He understood Qin Ming's personality quite well; he was somewhat like Nezha, and his actions were a bit "double-standard."
They're naturally very good to acquaintances, and as friends they're completely trustworthy. But if there's a conflict, it's best to pray they're temporarily unavailable, otherwise they might be showing up at your doorstep the next minute...
For example, the relationship between the association and the Vatican is far from reaching the point of irreconcilable conflict.
However, this was only a potential threat; Laozi was considering taking precautions and preventing problems before they arose.
Qin Ming, however, was considering how to eliminate future troubles.
A potential threat is still a threat!
……
Inside a residential area in the city.
A boy was playing the game "Gate of All Beings" at home and had already reached a high level. However, he was attacked by others while fighting over an item, and in a fit of anger, he decided to destroy the item.
However, most of the items within the Gate of All Beings require a certain level or control over spiritual power to be forcibly destroyed.
At least ordinary humans cannot do it.
But when he had a strong will, the prop was still destroyed by the spiritual power he accidentally activated, causing an explosion that killed him.
However, all the players in that area also deleted their accounts and logged out.
"What the hell!?"
"Is there a bug?"
"I don't know. This game hasn't had any bugs lately. Maybe it was accidentally triggered by some kind of self-destruct mechanism? Did anyone bring a self-destruct item?"
"Could it be that wild fruit I picked up this morning? I think it's called... a self-destructing fruit?"
"Damn it! You bastard! You owe me back the account I worked so hard to level up to level 40!"
"QAQ I'm crying sob sob sob~..."
"What happened upstairs? Did your high-level character also disappear?"
"I played four times before becoming human, and I only had five minutes of experience..."
"Oh, if it's not a limited edition, you can't choose your race. That's really unfortunate."
What were you like before?
"A fish drowned, the second time was a mosquito, which was swatted to death by a child when I was turning in a quest, and another time was a tree. I thought I was going to be a tree for life, but I was interrupted by those big shots during a battle, and then I was eaten by a rat..."
"Tsk tsk..."
"You're making me want to try playing a different race! Ugh! Why can't I log back in for half an hour after dying?!"
"It's probably to prevent account farming or something, but the fact that the account is deleted immediately upon death is really hurtful. I spent 3000 RMB to get these items and levels!"
"Comfortable."
Mr. Fu: "+1"
Ruoshui: "+1".
The game forums were buzzing non-stop for just a few days, with all sorts of discussions, and some freaks even joined in, thoroughly enjoying themselves.
"Holy crap! My house exploded!"
Nezha: "?"
Old Man Jiu: "???"
When the boy woke up, he found that his room looked like it had been exploded.
The room was a mess, and I was stunned for a moment when I saw it.
who am I? where am I?
Then, with a swift movement, he sprang to his feet, quickly picked up the things on the ground, put them away neatly, and cautiously peered into the doorway.
Mom and Dad probably haven't come back yet; it would be terrible if they saw us!
Just then, the pencil he had placed on the table suddenly moved.
"?"
Startled, the boy stopped in his tracks, and the moment he turned his head, the pencil flew straight at him!
Whoosh!
"what!"
laugh……
He instinctively raised his hand to shield his eyes and closed them, but when he opened them again, the pencil had vanished.
However, he immediately felt dizzy and fainted.
A figure appeared behind him and caught him.
"Judging from the reaction, it's clear that it just awakened, but this ability..."
With a casual wave of his hand, Qin Ming caused all the damaged items around him to disappear, and at the same time, identical pieces of furniture appeared.
Stools, tables, pens... appeared all around.
Lao Jun raised an eyebrow. Qin Ming didn't have any creation-type abilities before. Judging from this level, it's about the same as what Wuxian showed before.
However, what the two were more concerned about at this moment was the boy's ability.
