90: The so-called civilization is nothing but——
Floor 1: "I've also forgotten which day it was. In my memory, it was a painful day. The memory automatically deleted the key information, the key pain, from it."
Floor 1: "The first civilization, which was once on the 18th floor, was wiped out by the Original Platform. The next day, a new civilization was added. Following that, 12 civilizations were wiped out, then 136, and then... the Original Platform became a slaughterhouse for civilizations."
Floor 1: "Since then, the slaughter has never stopped."
Floor 1: "Sometimes, I also wonder what it would be like if we could start over. If the 18th floor hadn't learned so much on the 16th day, would another civilization have learned more?"
Floor 1: "But I think, no matter how many times we start over, one thing will never change: so-called civilizations are just beasts in disguise."
Wang Renlu typed into the chat box: "Then how did you survive?"
Floor 1: "I have 73.5 billion compatriots. I have a responsibility to lead them to survive. That's all."
Wang Renlu: "So, how many technology trees did you learn today?"
Floor 1: "13."
Wang Renlu: "6."
...
Floor 888.
Human civilization seemed a bit suppressed.
That is to say, Blue Star was full of vitality and everything was competing to grow.
Nuclear bombs were being thrown around like firecrackers.
Those with grudges sought revenge, and those with grievances sought justice.
According to this situation, before the second day was even over, the population of Blue Star would have decreased by two-thirds.
Truly, a single-mindedness had turned into a dead end!
Currently, they were on the 888th floor.
Wang Renlu and the two others repeatedly confirmed it.
Wang Feiyue was a little panicked, or rather, quite panicked. Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind: "Is it possible that our floor numbers are reversed!!"
Wang Renlu called her a genius immediately.
"Big silly Yue, is there a possibility that if you reverse 888, it's still 888!!"
Wang Feiyue: "How could I TM not know? I'm just trying to lighten the tense atmosphere, you straight man, no wonder you can't find a girlfriend."
Wang Renlu: "Who says so? My senior is waiting for me!! Don't talk nonsense!!"
Wang Feiyue chuckled: "That senior of yours, I'm not going to say it, she's a bi..."
"Beauty!"
"Bi..."
"Big beauty!!"
"Bi!!"
"Goddess!!!"
...
Time passed by second by second.
Wang Renlu held a small mirror, a brow pencil in his hand, and with a raised orchid finger, was applying makeup to himself in a practiced manner.
Wang Feiyue and Lu Nianxia, with Wang Renlu as the center and the wall of the 888th floor as the endpoint, were moving in a circle.
They were pacing back and forth anxiously!
Only Lin Nian remained seated in the same spot, never stopping his cultivation.
Time reached 23:59:09 PM.
Wang Renlu was still not panicking, because he saw that Lin Nian wasn't panicking.
Wang Feiyue and Lu Nianxia also seemed not to be panicking.
They even had the mood to put on makeup.
Putting makeup on each other.
According to the standards of a mortician.
"Let's die gracefully... boohoo..."
23:59:59 PM.
Lin Nian used the copy function right on time.
"Copy."
[You copied 2 technology trees from Floor 1]
[You copied 1 technology tree from Floor 2]
[You copied 11 technology trees from Floor 3]
...
[When you copied the technology tree from Floor 125, no technology tree was found]
[You copied 3 technology trees from Floor 126]
[You copied 1 technology tree from Floor 127]
[You copied 1 technology tree from Floor 128]
...
[You copied 1 technology tree from Floor 675]
[You copied 1 technology tree from Floor 676]
[You copied 1 technology tree from Floor 677]
...
[You copied 6 technology trees from Floor 127, but during the copying process, the other party could not withstand it, and their civilization collapsed and perished]
[You copied 5 technology trees from Floor 127]
[You copied 8 technology trees from Floor 999]
...
[This copying is complete, taking 0.12 seconds]
[A total of 1586 technology trees were copied]
...
Spiritual Pivot finished speaking.
Lin Nian opened his eyes and smiled.
Wang Feiyue looked at him smiling and also smiled helplessly.
For some reason, even though she knew she was going to die, being able to get a bento box with Lin Nian didn't feel so scary anymore.
"It's 0:01 AM now."
"According to the rules of the Original Platform, the clearing should start now."
"Seems like there's a delay??"
Suddenly, a prompt popped up in front of the four of them.
[Original Platform Today's Statistics]
Wang Renlu and the two others' hearts sank.
What was meant to come was finally here.
They thought the White Nightmare was the peak of difficulty.
They didn't expect that going through all the hardships to seal the White Nightmare was the hardest part.
They didn't even make it through the first day, were they going to die in the White Nightmare's dream?
[Day 176, a total of 458 civilizations were wiped out, and 458 new civilizations have entered the Original Platform. At 6 AM, the new platform positions will be automatically arranged. Please look forward to it.]
?
Wiped out?
Wang Feiyue and the others looked at themselves, then looked at the safe and sound Blue Star over there.
You call this wiped out?
"Is the Original Platform too busy and forgot about us?"
The wrinkled-faced Wang Renlu sat in his wheelchair and smiled: "It's good to be busy, it's good to be busy!"
Just at this moment, a series of prompts appeared in front of everyone.
[Congratulations, you have learned a total of 1568 technology trees today. Blue Star civilization has been upgraded to the peak of a Level 5 civilization.]
[Congratulations, for learning one technology tree, you are rewarded with 1 million points. You have learned 1586 technology trees, rewarded with: 1,586,000,000 points.]
?
"No, our platform doesn't have a single technology tree!"
"Even if you gave us 1586 technology trees, we couldn't learn them all!"
"Then, where did these technology trees come from?"
Just as the three of them were deep in thought, the next moment, an even more explosive prompt popped up in front of them again.
[Congratulations, you have completed the hidden side quest: Lead the civilization on the 127th floor to become a god-level civilization. The correlation between its becoming a god-level civilization and you is 100%. Reward: 4 S-rank side quest points.]
[Current carryable points: 1,587,000,000 points, 8 B-rank side quest points, 4 S-rank side quest points.]
?
??
???
Just got 1.5 billion+ points.
Now four S-rank side quest points?
"Crazy, truly crazy!"
"What exactly is going on?!"
The two ladies were completely going crazy.
But Wang Renlu was getting calmer and calmer: "Do you even need to ask? With my dad Nian leading us, we just need to lie down. Play whatever you want to play. Two missing for Landlord, who's in?"
Wang Feiyue and the other person's eyes were full of surprise. Looking at Lin Nian who was still meditating, they immediately understood.
If the White Nightmare could make them invincible, it wasn't impossible for the Original Platform to learn 1586 technology trees against the heavens on the first day.
Wang Feiyue came over, ready to play Landlord.
Lu Nianxia, after learning the situation, had no interest in entertainment and started meditating, imitating Lin Nian.
Wang Feiyue quickly threw away the playing cards and went to practice her cultivation method as well.
Only Wang Renlu was left in place, his face full of anger, his orchid finger raised: "I just don't like playing with you old women, you're making this old grandma so angry."
He looked at Lin Nian.
Lin Nian: "Scram."
...
At 6 AM on the second day, the Original Platform began to ascend from the 999th floor.
