No. 8 "Life expectancy: 20 years."

Speaking of "gods", Yefute's face showed piety. Similar to her, most people held up the mahogany rings in their hands - a symbol of faith.

The gods once sent down an oracle, saying that the world is a "circle".

Although no one yet understands the specific meaning of the gods’ words. But the circle has become the most respected pattern among believers.

People smile as if all must feel happy when the gods are mentioned.

"The 'gods' have given us a way to save the world, allowing us to advance the game plot through dream patrol, dispel the black fog, and find the lost land." Iyefute said:

"Over the years, the brave and fearless Dream Patrollers have been through life and death in the two currently open games [Cat and Her] and [Louyue Kingdom]. They completely cleared the [Cat and Her] game a year ago. They have also cleared the game. The prologue of [Lou Yue Kingdom], the establishment of Lou Yue.”

"These game progress have dispelled 5% of the black fog for us, allowing us to expand our existing land from 20% to 25%. We were able to develop large areas of farmland and ponds, saving countless lives."

When she said this, everyone smiled.

"But currently, there are major problems with human progress." Yiyefute's tone suddenly became serious: "The progress of the Dream Patrol is stuck."

She stretched out her hand, and the flag behind her switched to a slideshow, showing the map of Louyue Kingdom.

"After [Prologue: The Establishment of Louyue], for a full year, the Dream Patrolmen have made a lot of efforts, but they still can't get through [Chapter 1: White Lotus Destroys the City]. If they can't get through the first chapter, the land area of ​​mankind will be reduced. It will always be stuck at 25%. What’s even more frightening is that the black fog is still spreading. This is a tug-of-war of retreat. Once we are unable to regain further land, the only land we have will be eroded by the black fog. .”

"What's more, alien species and anomalies are also constantly taking human lives. Frontline soldiers fight against alien species, and a large number of sacrifices are made every day... This is a tragic struggle." She sighed slightly when she said this.

Someone raised their hand: "Madam Speaker, don't be sad, please cheer up!"

Human beings have discovered that the source of alien and abnormal power is human negative emotions.

So, no matter what, don't let yourself feel sad. Let alone convey negative emotions to others in public. Only by smiling every day and feeling happy every day can we suppress the ravages of alien species and abnormalities - this is what is written in the laws of the old world:

[Those who cry loudly in public shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than ten years. Those who cry for a short period of time shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than one year but not more than three years. 】

No sadness allowed.

No crying allowed.

Be happy and happy forever.

Evette immediately returned to smiling, and even deliberately made a funny expression. She stuck out her tongue and winked, making people burst into laughter, sweeping away the previous gloomy atmosphere.

However, although people are very happy, they still need to pay attention to the problem - if there is really no Dream Patrolman who can get through [Chapter 1: White Lotus Destroys the City], the fate of mankind will really end here.

"What is the reason for this?" a bald politician shouted fiercely: "I have watched the live broadcasts and screen recordings of Dream Patrollers, and I feel that they are very powerful. Why can't they get through the first chapter?"

Dream Tourists can conduct live broadcasts during the Dream Patrol process. Live streaming allows them to gain additional Dream Patrol points.

In the old world, there was a ranking list of Dream Patrollers. The most popular Dream Patrollers had hundreds of millions of people watching each Dream Patrol. Every once in a while, the gods will send down oracles to re-rank the Dream Patrollers.

"You have to clear the first chapter, so that you can follow up." A white-robed cleric shook his head and said: "It has been a year since the game [Cat and Her] was completely cleared, but there is no new game. Just a [Louyue Kingdom] ] is not enough. We need more games to take a multi-pronged approach, otherwise we will be swallowed up by the black fog sooner or later."

"Currently, the most famous Dream Patrol master is from Longcheng. His name is Yi Zhongyu. He has 87% mastery of the fourth level and studies the branch of swordsmanship. In Dream Patrol, he became the leader of Lou Yue Kingdom. He is a famous general, but he has not found out how to clear the first chapter. It seems that this is not a question of strength." said a white-haired professor from Yinshuang University.

They talked.

Evette frowned slightly. If no one can express constructive opinions, the meeting will be in vain. Many people experience negative emotions.

At this time, someone suddenly exclaimed:

"——Quick! Look at the Dream Patrol progress list!!"

Everyone frowned, startled by this babbling guy.

Among the rankings, what people value most is the Dream Tour progress ranking. It means the degree of exploration of the main plot.

[Dream Patrol Popularity Ranking]

[Dream Tour Progress Ranking List]

[Personal Ranking of Frontline Battlefield Contribution Value]

[Individual ranking of rear support contribution value]

【……】

People waved their fingers and summoned the blue ranking interface. When they opened the [Dream Tour Progress Ranking], they were immediately shocked.

…

[Dream Patrol Progress Ranking List (Louyue Kingdom):

The first one:? (Progress: Chapter 2 0%)

Second place: Yi Zhongyu (Progress: 87% of Chapter 1)

Third place: Xi (progress: 86% of Chapter 1)

Fourth place: Little Watermelon (Progress: 85% of Chapter 1)

Fifth place: Carol (Progress: 85% of Chapter 1)

Sixth place: Lu Chengzhu (Progress: 83% of Chapter 1)

...]

…

Yi Zhongyu, who had been firmly ranked first in the rankings, unexpectedly fell to second place. The first anonymous person clearly showed the progress of [Chapter 2 0%].

--what does that mean?

"Someone has cleared the first chapter..." Evette muttered to herself.

People looked at each other in disbelief.

At the right time, several people in military uniforms ran onto the stage panting:

"Madam Speaker, part of the black fog has dissipated! About 2% of the land is available for recovery! Someone should have cleared the first chapter!"

——Humanity has been stuck in the progress of dream patrol for a full year, but was suddenly broken through by an anonymous dream patroller.

"This...is this true?"

"Oh my god..."

People looked at each other and cheered.

Someone suggested that we should find out who this dream patrolman is as soon as possible and award him a medal of honor.

This dream patroller can overcome the level that mankind has been stagnant for a year. It shows that he has extremely high strength, and the status of Lou Yueguo he possesses must also be extremely high. It is possible that he is the eldest prince that no one has been able to possess so far.

"Can you find out who this Dream Patrolman is?" Yiyefute asked.

"Madam Speaker, we do not have any technological means to locate the real-life location of the Dream Patroller. Unless the Dream Patroller actively exposes his real-life identity online," the officer said.

"Try your best to find out who it is..." Yiyefute's voice dropped.

Even though this is a joint meeting, humanity is not entirely united. In this meeting, there were many human traitors and traitors, as well as other city leaders with ulterior motives. It would be bad if they found the Dream Patroller first.

After this news spreads, I am afraid that twenty-six countries and thirty-two independent cities will be shocked by it.

Evet ended the meeting, walked down the platform, and kissed the mahogany ring in her hand.

She firmly believed that the appearance of this Dream Patroller must be because the gods took pity on human beings and their progress was stuck, so that the Dream Patroller came into being. God loves His people so much. He not only created this "dream patrol" method of salvation, but also helped mankind overcome difficulties.

"God, God..."

she murmured reverently. At this time, the more than 300 people in the conference room suddenly became quiet. They watched in silence as she walked off the stage.

The afternoon sun shone on her face, and Yefute's eyes were extremely soft and peaceful.

When she walked to the window, the next second, the steel frame in the sky suddenly fell without warning, and was pulled by the curtains, hitting her.

But she didn't dodge or dodge, she just stood there quietly. Everyone watched helplessly as the heavy steel frame hit her, but no one rescued her. Instead, like a pilgrim, everyone watched this scene quietly.

"Tear - tear" the curtain was torn, and the steel frame fell faster and faster. It was extremely heavy, and if it hit her, she would definitely die.

However, she did not dodge, she just shouted loudly, with a desperate and calm expression:

"O God! I obey the fate you have arranged for me!"

"——We are your most loyal believers! Please also protect the human species!!"

"boom--!!!"

The steel frame fell and she was pressed to the ground. With a "bang", the sharp steel bar pierced her forehead. Her bones were broken and blood flowed all over the ground. Her palms were still holding the mahogany ring tightly and she was crushed. The flat head exposed a corner of the lips, still maintaining the posture of kissing the ring.

She was crushed to death by the steel frame, and everyone watched silently as she was crushed to death. Their expressions were neither sad nor shocked, as if they had expected this scene.

At this moment, a blue light appeared on her body:

[Name: Evet

Age: 42 years old

Life expectancy: 42 years

Cause of death: Hit by a steel frame after finishing the joint meeting. Time: 1:20 pm on February 3, 2017]

…

The reason why people are so calm is because they know that this is the fate written by the "gods" for Evette.

In the old world, everyone's destiny would be arranged by "gods".

As early as 18 years old, when Evette came of age, she saw the cause of her death appearing on her information panel. At that time, she understood that she would die on the steel frame at the age of 42. This was the ending arranged by the "gods" for her.

She told others about it and they expressed regret for her. Because their life expectancy is generally. 42 years old is a little short for a person.

But no one protested because this was the arrangement of "gods". Even if they don't know the purpose of this arrangement, they cannot disobey it.

——As long as you act according to the time nodes arranged by the gods throughout your life, it will definitely be beneficial to the human species.

People believe so.

Yefute has been working very hard since then. She knew that her life span would be shorter than others, so she had to work extra hard to fulfill her wish before she died - she wanted to become a speaker.

3.

——At that moment, she knew that she still had 6 years left in office.

Not one more year, not one less year.

Finally, after this joint meeting, with the world watching, she calmly accepted her fate - being crushed to death by a steel frame at the age of 42, just as the gods had written.

Even if she didn't want to accept such a fate, she would most likely die of other causes. Death at the age of 42 was a point in time that was difficult for her to overcome.

Of course, organizations that defied the gods were also born, and some methods of escaping fate were developed. But conservatives like Evet believe that only by obeying the gods can humans have a way out.

——For the future of mankind, she is willing to die calmly without resisting the gods.

…

[God—God! ! ! I have obeyed the fate you arranged for me all my life! 】

【——We will be your most loyal believers! Please also protect the human species! 】

…

It's like a kind of equal trade between humans and gods.

——You bless us and we obey our fate.

…

…

"Neuropathy."

In the room, Su Mingan browsed his smartphone and roughly understood the situation in the world.

"A god who can arrange everyone's destiny?" Su Ming'an said to himself: "Is it another guy like Su Lin?"

He clicked on his personal information and saw that, sure enough, he actually had his expected life span and cause of death.

…

[Estimated life span: 20 years]

[Cause of death: Not yet scheduled]

…

"20 years old." Su Mingan stared at these words.

The gods were really rude to him.
