266: If everything is going to be destroyed, what is the meaning of living?
When the few of them reopened their eyes, they were already in a vast, white space.
Chen Beixuan’s eyelids twitched violently.
The scene here reminded him of the place where he chose his talent profession when he first entered the game!
It was surprisingly similar!
The only difference was that the crystal ball was gone.
There were large areas of artificial buildings, and members of the True Sight Sect in red robes came and went.
There was no sun or moon in the sky, and no color on the ground.
Everything in sight was pure white.
Suppressing the strangeness and doubt in his heart, he followed Eckhart into the town, and along the way, many people greeted Eckhart familiarly.
This kid's status must not be low; he was very well-liked.
The three of them were out of place among the surrounding crowd, but the red-robed people did not show any unusual expressions; in their eyes, there was a calmness as if they had seen through the mundane world.
Laji and Sabei looked left and right, occasionally reaching out to touch the walls or stomping on the ground, trying to understand their constituent materials.
Eckhart stopped outside his small house, opened the door, and invited the three in.
Seated inside, four cups of hot tea emitted wisps of steam.
Chen Beixuan and the others remained unmoved, all staring intently at the blue-haired young man; they had gone to great lengths to get here, and it wasn't for tea.
Eckhart didn't care; he picked up his teacup as if no one else was there, took a small sip, then looked up at the three with a solemn expression.
"The world you perceive... is fake."
As soon as these words were spoken, it was like a thunderclap from a clear sky!
Laji and Sabei's hearts suddenly jumped, their minds went blank for a moment, and they instinctively narrowed their eyes, probing with a hint of doubt.
"What's the reason? Based on what do you determine the world is fake?"
These words were too subversive to their understanding; without strong evidence and reasons, they couldn't possibly believe it.
And the most shocked was none other than Chen Beixuan.
His brow furrowed slightly, and waves rose in his heart.
Had the NPC realized he was in a game?
It seemed like this was the only explanation...
Ever since the attribute feedback appeared at level 100, coupled with his conversation with the national leader, he had begun to believe that the characters and world in the game were truly real.
Perhaps in different star systems, different dimensions, in short, they definitely existed somewhere.
As long as they weren't fixed AI programs.
It was bound to happen that intelligent beings would question the world they lived in.
Eckhart was not surprised by their reaction, as if he had experienced it many times and was accustomed to it; he smiled calmly and continued.
"I will take you to see the evidence with your own eyes later, but before that, listen to me finish."
The three didn't speak, which was taken as assent.
"A year ago, while practicing spatial magic, I accidentally teleported into the Tower of the Gods, thus discovering the truth about the world, and was subsequently hunted by the Gods, with even the World God personally taking action."
"Fortunately, I am proficient in teleportation magic and managed to escape, bringing with me the evidence I took from the Gods. My like-minded companions and I formed the True Sight Sect, hoping to change the tragic outcome."
He suddenly looked at the three and posed a question,
"Haven't you noticed that the world area of the Six Realms is much smaller than described in ancient books?"
"According to the books, one realm is hundreds of millions of miles wide, but I have personally measured it, and it is actually less than a tenth of what the books say."
Laji and Sabei looked at each other, bewildered.
When they were young, they were considered poor students and hadn't really paid attention to this issue.
On the other hand, Chen Beixuan felt deeply about it.
As someone who had been to the Demon Realm, the Demon Realm, the Dark Realm, and his own Human Realm, he had long had doubts.
Without exception, all these worlds had one characteristic.
That was, they were too small!
So small that he thought the game designers had only designed them to be this size.
From the Ten Thousand Mountains on the border of the Demon Realm to the center of Lion King City, the Myriad Realms Kun could fly there in less than half a day at that time, which was enough to show how small the area was.
Of course, this 'small' was relative; at least, it was very different from what he had imagined.
One realm should at least be measured in trillions or quadrillions.
The Six Realms were indeed a bit small.
It would be more accurate to say they were six large factions.
Eckhart sighed, saying wistfully,
"The entire God Realm, and even the entire Six Realms, were created by the Light God for his amusement. His divine power is limited, so the world is limited."
"...The Light God pronounced a death sentence on the Six Realms at the very beginning of the world's birth!"
"All worlds... all races... will all perish!"
"As for the method of perishing... it is still unclear for now. The True Sight Sect's doctrine is to investigate it thoroughly and ultimately prevent the perishing from happening."
"All this information is reflected in the evidence; its authenticity will be clear at a glance, and I have no need to deceive you."
After finishing his speech.
Eckhart took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, giving the three time to digest the information.
Chen Beixuan smacked his lips; the result was somewhat different from what he had expected.
The NPC realizing that the world was fake, this step was also calculated into the plot by the game designers.
This should be the main questline of the God Realm version, affecting the entire Six Realms, considered a late-game disaster global mission in the game.
But the more it was so, the more he felt apprehensive.
What kind of existence could create worlds, change thoughts, meticulously craft the Ten Thousand Realms Game, and release it into reality?
What was its ultimate goal?
Unfortunately, he had no way of knowing any of this; he could only continue to play according to the rules...
Sabei was the most excited; nothing was more thrilling than investigating a monstrous conspiracy and becoming an anti-hero. He wished he could join the True Sight Sect right now!
To throw his head! To spill his blood!
Laji sat beside him, his expression solemn, his brows clouded with gloom, and negative emotions filled his chest.
If everything was eventually going to be destroyed, then what was the meaning of living now?
Did his father know about the Light God's conspiracy?
Was he involved, with blood on his hands?
Or was he also kept in the dark, becoming a sacrifice?
Neither option was what he wanted to see.
"We want to see the evidence."
Laji's tone was firm; he stood up, eager to understand the truth.
"Alright, follow me."
Eckhart placed his teacup on the table, stood up, and led the way out, with the three following closely behind.
The True Sight Sect had developed for a year, and its members numbered nearly ten thousand, dispersed across various spaces; this was the largest space.
They arrived at the center of the small town, where a huge stone tablet stood, with several church members observing it.
"The answers you seek are all on that stone tablet," Eckhart gestured to the three with a nod of his chin.
Laji didn't say a word, quickly approached, and looked closely.
Only when he got closer did he realize.
A mural was actually embedded in the stone tablet!
Looking at the familiar material and familiar mural style, Laji felt as if struck by lightning!
He stood frozen in place, his pupils trembling slightly...
The style of this mural was very similar to the God Demon Sword mural he had seen in his father's room back then!
It could almost be concluded that they were by the same artist!
"Did father really participate in it...?" Laji muttered distractedly, his spirit lost.
Chen Beixuan and Sabei, who were a bit slower, stopped in front of the stone tablet and also began to examine it carefully.
Sabei explained and translated the entire time; with text and pictures, understanding came quickly.
In a few minutes, they understood the whole story.
Rather than a mural, it was more like the Light God's diary, still in an ancient pictorial and textual style.
The content was exactly as Eckhart had described.
The only point was that there was a clear discontinuity, and the information was incomplete; the time and method of the great extinction were unknown.
Thump, thump, thump...
Laji suddenly left the stone tablet and ran towards the distance.
"Hey, Laji, where are you going!" Sabei called out, but the other party seemed not to hear, running further and further away.
"This guy... probably got emo again."
Chen Beixuan couldn't help but shake his head, but in the next second, he reacted, his eyes brightening.
When people are vulnerable, they are most likely to open their hearts.
What a good opportunity to inquire about quest clues!
"I'll go check on him, Sabei don't follow!"
