Global Collapse

Chapter 796 A Loud Roar in the Sky, Nicholas II Makes a Dazzling Appearance
An arched stone gate, intricately carved, stood before Gu Mian.

It is nearly two stories high and wide enough for three cars to drive in side by side.

The archway, made of an unknown material, was entirely milky white and shimmered with a holy radiance under the sunlight.

The stone archway is carved with intricate human figures, somewhat resembling murals in ancient tombs.

Gu Mian looked up at the top of the door.

Theoretically speaking, he shouldn't be able to see the top, because the door is just too high.

But at this moment, Gu Mian felt as if the door had some kind of connection with him, which made him immediately see the carving at the highest point of the stone archway.

There are two people standing side by side carved there.

Because of the limited space and the large amount of content to be carved, the two figures were not carved very exquisitely. You can tell that there are two people, but you can't tell who they are.

His gaze followed the stone archway downwards, and he realized that the carvings on the archway depicted the deeds of the two people at the very top.

Their lives diverged at the top of the door, and their story continued downwards along two different stone pillars.

The man who stepped into the left pillar led a group of superiors to gradually rule the world, enslaving the inferiors. At his peak, he was surrounded by a large circle of superiors, but this glory did not last long. In later episodes, this man quietly distanced himself from the crowd, and the final image shows him standing before a colossal statue.

Gu Mian understood.

This is a life of killing.

In the secret forest, Killer told Gu Mian about his experiences. The three of them came to this world wanting to stage a story of heroes defeating evil dragons.

Slaughter and another person act as the evil dragon, while Xu Xingcheng plays the hero.

The dragons divided the world's people into two categories: the noble and the lowly. They took the nobles under their command and hoped that a hero could lead the lowly to defeat them, these evil beings.

But the hero never came, and the world raced headlong into the abyss, until it became what it is today.

In the end, the carnage uncovered the evil god statue at the bottom of the secret forest's underground cave, learning the truth behind the world's rewind.

Unable to face this unexpected world, he chose to withdraw from the upper class and guard the statue of the evil god alone in the secret forest.

After seeing the last scene of the carnage at the very bottom of the left stone pillar, Gu Mian already had a guess in her mind.

Since the person on the left is Killer, then the person on the right must be Killer's companion who played the "evil dragon" back then.

This stone archway was probably designed by the upper class to commemorate the two "creators of paradise," and it praises their merits.

Killing had told Gu Mian that his companion had suffered extensive burns from sulfuric acid after making a wish in an accident, leaving him unrecognizable.

The hero failed to appear, and his own body was severely damaged, rendering him unable to care for himself. This caused his psychology to become distorted, and the scales in his heart slowly tipped towards the upper class. His wish to the evil eagle led to a clear distinction in appearance between the upper and lower classes.

The albinism of the upper class was caused by this wish.

Gu Mian looked at the contents on the right side frame of the archway.

The content on the upper right is similar to the carnage, equally filled with glory and equally sought after.

In the middle section, the main character in the stone pillar on the right changes his appearance, becoming a withered, thin little man who can only sit in a wheelchair.

This period should be when his accident happens.

Gradually, the people who had gathered around him and followed him gradually drifted away, becoming fewer and fewer, until finally there was no one left by his side.

Finally, he dragged his broken body slowly toward a huge statue—the one on the left depicting the final scene of the massacre.
The scene in the middle where he fulfills his wish is not specifically depicted.

Gu Mian only saw that after the previous scene, the protagonist on the right returned to human form. No, not only did he return to human form, but his entire color changed. It was unclear what material the superiors had used on the statue, but the protagonist on the right was covered with a layer of silvery-white paint, signifying that he had been reborn and his appearance was completely different from that of the inferiors.

Flowers and followers began to surround him again, and those who followed him were all stained with the same pale color as him. His pale glory spread down the stone pillar until, at the very bottom, he was still surrounded by a group of tiny figures of the same color.

It seems that the comrades who committed the killings are still active among the upper class, but Gu Mian does not know their names or what they look like.

Because the story is so long, the figures on it are depicted very simply, and only a human shape can be seen.

"What are you daydreaming about? Hurry up and move in." The impatient voice of the leader of the upper class came from the front of the group.

The first 1000 was so overwhelmed by the sight before him that he didn't dare to go any further.

He stood at the front and saw that the floor inside the archway was covered with clean, reflective marble, and rows of luxurious villas were neatly arranged not far from the gate.

He also saw exquisite copper streetlights on both sides, flower beds full of flowers, everything was so beautiful, even the trash cans by the roadside seemed so perfect.

Number 1000 had never seen such a clean floor. After being urged a few times by the leader of the upper class, he wiped his hands on his tattered clothes and carefully rubbed the floor outside the door with the soles of his shoes. Only after doing all this did he slightly raise his chest and walk in.

He felt that the sky here was so bright and the air was so sweet.

For the first time in his life, he straightened his back so much, as if the moment he entered this place, he had become a superior person.

The lower-class people behind number 1000 mostly had the same reaction; they were at a loss, afraid that their dirty shoe soles would soil the clean and tidy ground.

Groups of upper-class people were passing by on the street.

Upon seeing the long queue of lower-class people entering the residential area, they all instinctively retreated and moved away.

It's not about politely avoiding things, but about keeping away from anything dirty.

"The organizers of that variety show must have lost their minds, allowing such things to tarnish our place."

"It was the host who made the suggestion. Ever since the host's show was canceled and he hit his head on the circus variety show, his mind is no longer normal."

The upper class were whispering among themselves.

"If you ask me, there's nothing interesting about watching low-class people campaigning for votes live. We might as well skip the first stage and go straight to the audience to watch their performance."

The upper class looked at the long queue with ill intent.

"However, this stage isn't entirely without its highlights; there seem to be a few amusing moments."

"See that little guy in the green shirt? I never thought he'd be assigned to our Happy Heaven. I often watch his funny performances from the viewing platform."

"It's him. I've seen him before. He's always jumping around in front of the camera, saying he's some kind of high-level NPC. He's just a clown trying to get our attention. Look, he got the opportunity to participate in a variety show."

The two upper-class people were talking about Mr. Green when suddenly, a white figure behind Mr. Green caught their attention.

"Who's that person behind the clown? I feel like I've seen him somewhere before."

"You saw him too? That's strange, your gaze seemed to naturally fall on that person."

"It's not surprising. Some people are born to amuse us. They must be very talented in this area."

“Yes, yes, I also think that person can deliver a fantastic performance.” Another voice suddenly broke in from behind the two.

The two upper-class people were startled and turned around to look.

A man with a hooked nose and short black hair was standing behind them.

"Who are you?" The two looked at him in confusion.

“Nicholas King II,” 007 said seriously.

And Gugu has made a dazzling appearance! Shining with a maternal glow, Agu~~——
