Mu Ri Made a Grand Vow
The Survivors on battlefield 114514 are incredibly cohesive, unusually so.
Qing Yunnan's consistent top ranking throughout the competition wasn't solely due to Talent...
There are plenty of people who don't fare well despite having the Talent for Copy. Qing Yunnan has never rested since entering the Survival Game. Even when traveling, he is handling affairs and collecting information in the World Channel... He always gives it his all.
As for the God of Magic, needless to say, her Talent and background are unknown, all that's known is that she's very strong... She achieved victory by blasting through the Trait Dungeon. In this Civilization Development, she still takes it very seriously.
Guan Ziyang need not say more. This time, he didn't play with excrement. Instead, he developed civilization step by step, and he was very eager, as if he had some kind of need.
Han Song... wants to ride on Su Luo's coattails in this Civilization Development, achieve better results, exchange for enough rewards, and ideally break through the Trait Dungeon as soon as he leaves.
As for those few Forbidden Existences--
Yashan, [Fog], [Food]... They never showed any real emotional fluctuations, but their attitude towards the District War spoke volumes.
They were very serious.
Facing Survivors whose strength was temporarily inferior to theirs, they showed unprecedented seriousness. There was no underestimation, no slackening; every step they took was steady and methodical, as if they were dealing with a truly serious game.
Yashan withdrew his consciousness, glanced at the Survivors present, and returned to Origin Star.
The Survivors are leveling up too fast.
Even if the Survivor's Attributes are not up to standard, the Scholar just inexplicably released a woman in purple clothes.
Although her strength is still insufficient, she has already touched the threshold of Forbidden Existence...
All eyes on the people in the arena were now fixed on Su Luo's Child of Civilizations — Mu Ri.
Even Yashan itself, whose development speed is similar, is observing.
They were watching to see what kind of crazy tricks this guy was up to.
"Amazing, even after his mother dies, he'll still forge iron."
Qing Yunnan felt really annoyed. He glanced at Su Luo, who was AFK with her eyes closed, and shook his head.
In the global event that just occurred— the Meteor Shower —all civilizations made the same initial choices.
They dispersed and hid, quickly dividing their men into groups of dozens and migrating to different places.
This is the most rational approach: preserve the population to the maximum extent possible and wait for the disaster to pass before regrouping.
Because such a Meteorite surge is truly terrifying. Not to mention current primitive civilizations, even Electrification advanced countries would be set back many years if they encountered such a situation.
Everyone originally thought that after wasting more than half a year, these newly organized nascent civilizations would not survive.
Indeed, they couldn't survive. Of the large tribe of over two thousand people that Yashan had just established, less than three hundred survived.
Death was a dominant theme in the early stages of Civilization Development.
The occurrence of this unusual event may simply be due to bad luck.
Mu Ri the initial period after the Meteorite fell, he was with his mother.
Then, he witnessed his mother being burned in a fire by Meteorite outside a mountain, and at the same time discovered strange objects that fell with the Meteorite.
Metal, high-temperature metallic ore.
Later, something happened that is unknown, Mu Ri demanded that everyone refrain from escaping again.
They scattered throughout the mountains and fields in search of this high-temperature metal ore, and taught them several strange techniques, including forging metal and crafting tools.
One set of incredibly sturdy production tools after another was transported to Changhe City. In the end, the Suguang Civilization was reduced to only three hundred people, along with... one set of tools after another that were completely out of this era.
"That's really ruthless..." Han Song clicked his tongue in amazement after reading it. He didn't understand how Mu Ri had made these judgments.
Qing Yunnan opened his mouth, his tone carrying a complex meaning:
"Taking advantage of the fact that primitive humans did not yet have a unified moral concept—the emotional impact of the death of a fellow human was not as profound as that of modern people. There was no history, no tradition, no constraints. He directly converted disaster into the fruits of development."
He paused.
"Trading development for casualties, buying the Future with death. A very ruthless tactic."
Qing Yunnan withdrew his gaze and focused again on the figure with eyes closed and idling.
This Scholar is incredibly pretentious.
They are secretly and aggressively interfering in the Civilization Development, yet they can't find anyone on Origin Star.
I've hated this kind of person Qing Yunnan —they say they don't want to study, but behind your back they're the most lazy and slacker than anyone else.
"You bunch of top students, you're all the same."
Origin Star. Changhe City.
Mu Ri stood on the open ground in the center of the city.
It was very quiet around us. More than three hundred people were scattered in various corners of the city, and no one spoke.
A month has passed since the Meteor Shower, and the sky has returned to its usual blue, though a faint smell of burning lingers in the air. In the distance, large swathes of burned forest can still be seen on the mountains.
Mu Ri at the cracks in his hands from forging iron, he felt that he had completely changed.
I've become someone I don't recognize.
Ever since his mother died in front of him.
That day, he was on this side of the mountain, and she was on the other. Meteorite fell, a great fire broke out, and with a mountain in between, he watched helplessly as the flames ignited, then went out, and then there was no more sound.
They have never had the habit of crying for the dead, but Mu Ri they feel like crying for no reason.
It wasn't for the dead. That sorrow was too distant, so distant that he couldn't even truly feel it.
He just felt... the world shouldn't be like this.
Why is it that even the slightest breeze or rustling of the earth can so easily Killing?
Floods, landslides, fires, landslides, diseases...
Why?
On what grounds?
What right do these things have to take human lives?
For no apparent reason, a profound sense of sorrow welled up within Mu Ri.
The sorrow was inexplicable and shapeless; it was simply something pressing down on his heart, making it hard for him to breathe, making him want to scream, shout, and smash things.
Then, in a daze, he saw something.
That was a monster.
No, it's many monsters.
A colossal creature, its body oozing green pus, left behind a trail of decaying earth and withered vegetation.
A humanoid black shadow exuding an aura of extreme death simply stood there, and the lives around it fell one after another.
A colossal Gluttony Eater, as large as the entire world, opened its enormous maw and devoured everything—mountains, rivers, the sky, even time itself.
That was the embodiment of disaster.
That is...
Mu Ri's gaze suddenly sharpened.
That was what he wanted to kill.
He wanted to kill them. Kill the floods, kill the mountain fissures, kill the fires, kill the collapses of the sky, kill the diseases...
Mu Ri stood in the center of Changhe City, raised his head, and looked up at the sky where death had once fallen.
On that Mu Ri, he made a great vow here.
Regardless of whether that thing is a living organism, natural, or even exists.
Wild animals, natural disasters, diseases, and even human death itself—
Everything that destroys or harms humanity.
He wanted to kill them all.
