The end of the world begins with failing an exam

If it weren't for the serious decline in his strength, wouldn't he be able to deal with this little Karami with a pinch of salt?

"too weak."

Jegertos let out a long sigh, feeling that he had lost his interest.

Thinking back to the scene where he was traveling in deep space, the more he thought about it, the more he felt aggrieved. At that time, let alone such a small character, even the residents of the stars behind him had to walk around when they saw him!

"I didn't expect that deep space is not the only one that is in decline...even you can't escape that pale history...my king...when can we...huh???"

Just as Yegetos was standing there pretending to be cool with a broad sword in his hand, Chen Jing and the others had already walked over quietly.

They all squatted on the ground to study the suddenly opened ravine, completely thinking that Jegertos was an airman.

"King?" Jegertos called tentatively.

"Yeah." Chen Jing nodded perfunctorily, "What's wrong?"

"Then...I've already done that..." Jegertos wanted to take credit, even if it was just praised by the king himself.

"Good job." Chen Jingye just praised him, gave a perfunctory thumbs up and said without raising his head, "Hurry up and take a look! What is down here!"

"..."

At this moment, everyone was attracted to this ravine on the ground.

Through this black gap in the ground.

Everyone can see the magnificent scene below.

Like a universe.

Various stars, foggy nebulae, and occasionally comets pass by.

All the weird colors known to humans and unimaginable can be seen in this colorful universe.

Does it...really exist?

Everyone was a little confused.

"Down here is the place where the inhabitants of the star are buried." Hassad was almost lying on the ground, wearing telescope-like telescopic glasses, staring at the colorful universe in the ravine, "We can just go down through the passage deep in the cave. "

"So beautiful!" Wei Nan squatted aside, staring into the ravine with bright eyes, "I have never seen so many stars..."

"Me too." Yanque said softly, with a rare trace of childish excitement and longing appearing on his calm and indifferent face, "It's like we are standing on this universe!"

"I have also set foot in other ancient ruins where the old kings are buried." Lawrence murmured, with a little excitement on his pale face, "But I have never seen such a magnificent and beautiful scenery!"

"It's indeed beautiful." Tsukano Kushiro nodded, placing his fingers on the ground and drawing them back and forth as if he were drawing, "When I go back and think about this scenery, I can use it for painting..."

"Something's not right."

Chen Bofu frowned from beginning to end.

He was not immersed in this beautiful scene like others, but was inexplicably uneasy.

Lived for so many years.

Chen Boxu is very aware of the unspoken rules of this world.

Beautiful things often symbolize danger.

Especially in those inexplicable ancient ruins.

"Is this the method of the residents of the star?" Chen Jing turned back to look at the approaching Yegetos and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"have no idea."

Yegetos walked to Chen Jing and squatted down, studying the stars in the ravine with everyone, and spoke in a very uncertain tone.

"Among the Old Kings, the Star Resident is considered smart. He has almost never had any conflicts with us in deep space, and has never participated in any wars. I have only met him a few times, but I have never fought against him. I don’t know him very well…”

"These stars are strange."

Bai Aji's sudden voice interrupted everyone's contemplation. At this moment, it was still "parasitic" on Chen Jing's shoulder, only revealing a huge skeletal head.

It was also looking at the starlight in the ravine.

The strangely protruding eyes kept moving, as if they were remembering something.

"Why is it weird?" Chen Bofu asked subconsciously.

"Although I have lived in deep space for a long time, I will leave deep space from time to time and carry out long-distance journeys in the vast and empty universe..." Baiaji muttered to himself, and his tone gradually became wary, "These The stars are different from anything I have ever seen... They are so lifeless.”

Everyone couldn't help but look at each other in confusion when they heard the murmuring of the god Bai Aji.

Too angry?

What kind of description is this?

"These stars seem to be really dead... I can vaguely smell the breath of star death..."

"You mean these stars are all dead?" Wei Nan asked with a confused look on his face, "I think they are quite normal. Are you mistaken?"

"I hope so."

Bai Aji raised his head and glanced at Wei Nan, then lowered his head and carefully observed the cosmic star sea in the ravine.

"If I really made a mistake, maybe it would be better..."

"Oops! They're here! The guard was killed too! We can't just keep watching, right?!"

Seeing that the atmosphere suddenly became a little depressing, Hassad suddenly became uncontrollably panicked.

He was afraid from the bottom of his heart that Chen Jing and the others would turn around and leave, so he hurriedly got up from the ground and urged everyone to leave quickly.

"It's not too late, otherwise things will change. Let's go!"

After saying that, Hassad took the lead and walked deeper into the cave.

But he walked almost ten meters away.

Hassad stopped helplessly.

Because he found that no one behind him was willing to follow him except those family members.

Even old natives of the fortress like Tsukano Kushiro didn't move... Everyone was looking at Chen Jing, seemingly waiting for him to make a decision.

"Do you think the risk is big?" Chen Jing gave the choice to Yegetos. After all, he knew the things of the old days best, and his combat experience was richer than outsiders could imagine.

"King, you can go and take a look."

Yegetos helped Chen Jing stand up slowly, with a hint of curiosity in his calm tone.

"If there is any danger, we can just withdraw in time. I will definitely be there to cover you."

As soon as the voice fell, Yegetos patted his chest and began to guarantee.

"King! Don't worry! I will be fine with me!"

"If you don't say this, I might be more relieved." Chen Jing looked at him with a complicated expression, and he was a little panicked. "Why do the words you said sound more and more like setting a flag..."

"What is setting a flag?" Yegetos was stunned.

Before Chen Jing could answer him, Tsukano Kushiro, who was standing next to him, spoke up. His calm tone made people feel more and more depressed.

"Flag is a curse."

"???"

"Really."

Tsukano Kushiro said seriously, with an extremely serious expression.

"Generally speaking, people who set up flags will be in big trouble. You have to be careful!"

Chapter 292 The Curse of the Material Universe (Part 2)

Under the leadership of Hazard.

The crowd continued to move towards the ancient ruins along a tunnel deep in the cave.

It must be said that after passing through the cave, the road became much easier to walk. After passing through this naturally formed underground tunnel, the crowd walked about 500 meters deeper and came to a spiral staircase with traces of artificial carvings everywhere.

The staircase went down.

Until deep underground.

The strongest Yegetos and Hazard, who led the way, walked in the front. The crowd lined up and walked down one by one. Every step they took, they could hear strange noises coming from the staircase under their feet.

At first, everyone was frightened when they heard the strange sound similar to the cracking of ice, but after a very careful inspection, they confirmed that there was no problem with the ladder, and then they dared to relax and continue to go deeper, but their mentality was not as relaxed as before.

"Is that tree here to guard his tomb?" Chen Jing and Chen Bofu were both walking in the middle and were chatting in a low voice.

"Maybe." Chen Bofu nodded.

"The tree looks pretty powerful. I thought it would explode some equipment if I killed it..." Chen Jing said with a look of disappointment, waving his right hand covered by golden holy light, and the shadows of everyone reflected on the ground could not help but sway.

Although everyone present was an old descendant and had learned the skill of seeing things in the dark a long time ago, Chen Jing couldn't help but want to take something to light up when walking in such a dark place.

"These things on the wall are really strange..." Tsukano Kushiro walked about two steps ahead of Chen Jing. While following the team, he looked at the dark marks on the stone wall, and there was a hint of vigilance in his tone, "They seem to be alive, and they are always wriggling..."

As Tsukano Kushiro said, since entering this spiral staircase, everyone has found many such burn-like marks on the stone wall, but listening to Hasad's explanation... these things seem to be some kind of mold that lived in the old days.

"Many ancient ruins from the old days have these things." Chen Bofu was not surprised. This was not the first time he had seen such things. "It's just some mold that has survived to this day by relying on the energy of the old days. It is harmful to ordinary humans, but not harmful to the old descendants."

Hearing the old man's popular science, Tsukano Kushiro was obviously relieved, but Chen Jing, who was walking behind him, did not relax his vigilance at all.

Although Chen Jing never showed it.

But he was actually hanging in his heart from beginning to end.

Because he felt that all this... was too smooth.

An ancient ruins where the old king was buried, would it really only have an inexplicable strange tree as a guard?

Or was it that I was thinking too much and was seeing things?

After all, not every ancient ruins is as scary as the Yellow King Courtyard.

"Come and see! There are murals here!"

Hearing the exclamation of Hasad in front of the team, the people walking behind could not help but speed up their pace subconsciously.

When Chen Jing came to Hasad, he saw that the old man had put on glasses and was lying on the wall to study, as if he was appreciating something fascinating, with an infatuated look on his face.

"I didn't expect to see the murals I have been looking for so early... It's so beautiful... This is the most beautiful thing in the world!"

"Is this... a mural?"

Chen Jing looked at the intaglio paintings on the wall in disbelief, and felt that the old man was probably crazy. These weird and twisted patterns on the wall... How could they fit the description of the word "beautiful"?

He must be crazy.

Chen Jing firmly believed.

The patterns painted on the wall with colorful pigments are complicated. 80% of them are made up of countless twisted lines and meaningless geometric figures, and the remaining 20% ​​are weird abstract paintings.

Perhaps the painter who painted this long mural was also a madman. His minimalist brushstrokes, which were cultivated by his mental deviation, can make people feel cold in their bones.

Countless bizarre creatures that are difficult to describe in words or even unimaginable are now vividly appearing on the wall, as if the "painter" has brought everyone back to that crazy era in just an instant, allowing everyone to witness that one with their own eyes. How terrifying is a monster that only blasphemes.

If judged from a normal human aesthetic perspective, the skill of the painter who painted this long mural is by no means superb, and can even be called crude and without any sense of beauty. But if you look at it from another angle...

The man who painted this long mural.

It must be a "creature" whose painting skills have reached the pinnacle.

It just uses some rough lines and weird geometric figures to combine with each other, and it can successfully inspire the fear hidden in the deepest part of human genes, as if these twisted and abstract creatures it depicts are real and are still alive in front of everyone's eyes. .

At this moment, everyone seemed to be possessed.

While walking deeper into the stairway like a zombie, I uncontrollably watched this "magnificent and beautiful" long epic picture.

The more I look.

The more I feel that my initial aesthetic level is simply rubbish.

How can this minimalist painting be considered crude?

It’s clearly extremely delicate and real!

"Something's wrong..."

Chen Jing suddenly woke up without warning and suddenly turned his eyes away from the mural.
