Couldn't Think of a Title
A crushing defeat was laid bare before everyone. Humanity had lost, utterly and completely. They were utterly humiliated by the Snake People treated them like sons, leaving them utterly powerless to fight back. The once lofty position of the Correctors began to crumble. Faced with this reality, even those Correctors had been watching the spectacle with amusement could no longer remain silent and rushed to form an alliance.
Of course, some of the Correctors were prepared to continue their decadent lifestyle. As the white-haired old man said, human civilization in this world had died. Apart from a few people who still retained some traces of civilization, everyone else had become the dregs of the era. The time when all the Correctors united to fight against the Evolvers was already the last embers of the flame of civilization.
These united Correctors are not noble people who truly fight for the human race. They are nothing more than scavengers on the corpses of human civilization. Their actions against the Snake People are more of a protective act of predation.
In reality, Old Man Yu was calling on humans to follow him to the Snake People. The more people who followed him, the sadder Old Man Yu became. He would rather people curse him, saying that he had abandoned humanity. He even wanted people to rebel against him, because that would mean that humanity could still be saved.
Old Yu looked up at the circling crows in the sky, his heart filled with sorrow. In recent days, even those who wanted to kill him were just crows guarding their food; not a single real human had stood up, pointed at his nose, and said, "I am human, I don't want to become Snake People!"
"Since there's no hope, let's hasten His death. This kind of death is just too gruesome!" Old Yu squinted, tears welling in his cloudy eyes. Leading Snake People to willingly join the Snake People might allow a glimmer of human civilization to remain among them. That was his last effort.
It wasn't that this old man didn't want to be a restorer of civilization; he proposed restoring order to the city's Correctors in many cities. However, in the eyes of those Correctors, his actions were nothing more than those of a comical clown. In the end, the old man realized reality: he didn't have the power to save humanity; he wasn't great, he was just a piece of trash.
Lu Li glanced at Old Man Yu and then ignored him. He might be great, or he might have ideas, but the ideas of ants are not worth paying attention to. The world is nothing more than a chessboard of a few indescribable things, and humans are far too insignificant compared to them.
The world is not a hero movie for humanity, and humanity has never been the protagonist. Lu Li can confirm this: although humanity is scattered throughout the entire multiverse, it has never been the main character of the multiverse. Just like dust exists all over the world, would you think dust is the main character of the world?
The Snake People who fought against them would understand this even more deeply. They had thrived in the main world for two hundred million years, and the civilization they developed was more brilliant than that of modern humans, but they still faced only Destruction.
After their special nature was discovered in the main world, their chief god, Iger, was repeatedly demoted and exiled from the main world to this world. After Iger fell into a deep sleep in this world, the Snake People began to degenerate and were defeated once again, forced to retreat to the seabed.
Once upon a time, the Snake People also boasted that they were the most intelligent of all beings and the essence of the universe, but it was meaningless. Humans are the same. But when you look up at the starry sky and the universe, you will find that you are just a speck of dust among the thousands of stars. In this universe, we are not special.
Lu Li's gaze was more focused on You Qiying, who carried the power of Doros. The specific function of the chain was unknown, but it had previously demonstrated a time absorption ability.
Zombie are immortal. If nothing unexpected happens, fourth-generation Zombie can live forever. Of course, this immortality is highly questionable. The reason they can live is that they are actually dead, but their death is preserved by Bloodworm and stored as blood diamonds.
The chain directly erased the Zombie's future in terms of time, artificially creating a death date. Of course, this death date wasn't very powerful; even if You Qiying went all out and absorbed the future, killing a second-generation Zombie would be the most she could manage.
The Zombie King's curse is incredibly strong. If there truly is an entity capable of creating a death date that will kill the Zombie King, then that entity would have the ability to easily break the Doom Bead, making it unnecessary to go through the trouble of creating a death date.
So what did Doros send You Qiying to do, or was it not Doros who sent him? Lu Li glanced at the business card in You Qiying's hand, Black Face business card of Nyar. Nyar hadn't made any moves on the surface, but given his mischievous nature, it was hard to say that he wouldn't interfere in this matter.
For Nyar, the world would be best off collapsing completely, which would give him an even greater advantage. Of course, it cannot be denied that he has other ideas; who can truly know the thoughts of beings of this level?
However, one thing is certain: Doros deliberately let him know about this. Speaking of the Doros and Iger, it's not hard to think of 007, the creature modified with the Egg of Doros, who also has the identity of a snake. This is where the two are clearly connected.
Lu Li casually slashed open a crack and took out the gray snake 007 from the independent mini-space he had created. In order to further study the power of time, Lu Li created a similar loop-like false mini-space based on the spacetime vortex he had encountered. That mini-space was half real and half fake, and the environment it captured was the original mountain village massacre case.
"Damn it, I'm finally free from that endless loop of fake time and space. Next time, can you add more plot? Watching the same plot thousands of times is really boring." 007 retorted mercilessly, "I demand that prisoners be treated well."
"What the hell? All of them have actually appeared in this world, and there are even a few more!" 007 complained about Lu Li's prison-laboratory environment, then said with a shocked expression.
"Wait, can it be?" 007 looked shocked, then muttered "Impossible."
"You seem to know something?" Lu Li narrowed his eyes. Doros's behavior had always been strange. At first, he wanted Lu Li withdraw from the competition for the position of Lord of Twistedness, but now he seemed indifferent to the Lord of Twistedness. He didn't care about Lu Li creating cultivators, and now he's pulled this stunt. What exactly is he trying to do?
"I can't say, I can't say, I'm probably just overthinking it." 007 quickly shook his head, his eyes flashing. Then, under the pressure of Lu Li's gaze, he finally said, "The future is a time that is not yet determined, the present is a time that is being determined, and the past is a time that is already determined."
"That's all I can say. Otherwise, you might as well kill me." After saying that, 007 voluntarily followed the still-open passage back to His cyclical, false timeline to go to jail.
"Is this what you wanted to tell me and Iger Doros?" Lu Li narrowed his eyes, various pieces of information swirling wildly in his mind, and he began to understand what Doros meant.
In this universe, we are not special, but in our lives, each of us is unique. I hope everyone can cherish life and enjoy every day. -- A suddenly sentimental pigeon.
Goodnight everyone!
