However, in five years, only 48 human beings died, which is undoubtedly due to Rick.

- So humans believe in Rick.

——So all human beings put their lives on his shoulders.

In other words.

Rick became the spiritual pillar and beacon of hope for more than 2000 people.

In this desperate world, not everyone can be strong on their own, they must rely on a pillar to keep their spirits from breaking down.

And Rick, as a leader, acts as such a function.

To lead the disheartened forward, choose the best option when necessary, bear the will of the fallen and the will of the rest, but still be able to move forward bravely——

In this kind of world, Rick is the only one who makes the heart like steel and makes people trustworthy.

As a result, he has become a mental device that keeps mankind from collapsing.

If you lose Rick...

Then, in the face of death sooner or later, human beings will degenerate into meaningless and worthless creatures, and become "prey" that can only tremble with fear.

What a twisted and deformed structure this is.

There is a sentence in Annan's memory, which is very suitable to describe this situation-how can the years be quiet, it's just that someone is carrying the load for you.

Rick alone bears the despair of more than 2000 people, and more than 2000 people can survive.

But this is too cruel to Rick.

You can't complain to others, you can't cry, you can't show weakness, you can't despair, you must always be sensible.

In such a world, he must always act as the flame of hope to maintain the mental health of 2000 people...

What torture is this.

Desperately suppress human nature and live like a dead person, otherwise the heart will not be able to sustain.

In the past five years, Rick has lived a life that is worse than death.

It's amazing.

Annan and Tiamat paid their respects to this.

"It's just that, if it goes on like this, his heart will still collapse. It's just a matter of time."

Annan shook his head and ruthlessly expressed his judgment.

Rick is a normal person.

But to be normal in such a world - is that even normal?

"Hey, times like this—when will it end?"

In the room, Rick, who had smashed the table and his hands became bloody, sat on the ground, looked at the air with nothing in his eyes, and muttered.

I don't know if it was a coincidence or not, Rick murmured in the direction of the void, just in front of Annan.

This surprised Annan subconsciously, but then realized that Rick couldn't find himself.

Rick didn't expect anyone to answer his questions either.

He was just talking to himself.

It is said that in the past there was no unstoppable rain, no night without daybreak.

But which human being will finally see the blue dust stop falling?

Will anyone see the sun on the other side of the smoke-enclosed sky?

The war will end one day - not forever, the question is when will it end...

From the subjective point of view of human beings, this war can only feel that it will go on forever.

Rick was silent, closed his eyes tiredly, and his figure fell into the darkness.

Looking at such a figure, Annan answered Rick's question in a voice that no one could hear.

"You want to ask what is the end of this era, then I can only answer like this-"

"Since ancient times, the time when the war ended has one thing in common, that is... the final winner has appeared!"

Chapter 170 Seven Then, let's start the game!

"Annan, he shouldn't hear what you said...and..."

Standing in an undiscovered corner, Tiamat raised his hand and tucked his hair behind his ears, looking at his man's calm tone as if he wanted to pretend.

Ah this...

My own man is good everywhere, but sometimes he likes to pretend to be profound and pretend to be extremely blunt.

After hesitating for a while, Ti Ma decided to go out to save face for her man, but she still didn't say anything.

"Tiamat, just say what you want to say, do you feel like I'm talking nonsense?"

Annan looked at the beautiful goddess beside him, and successfully read Tiamat's thoughts by relying on the face-reading skills of the big bosses.

"Um...isn't it?"

Tiamat blinked her pink-purple star pupils and asked curiously.

"Well, whether it's nonsense or a prophecy, I'm just stating a cruel fact."

Annan said noncommittally, his eyes penetrated the room, and he saw Rick who spread out the map and studied it carefully, and also saw the detailed map.

"……cruel?"

"Yes, this is an extremely cruel fact for human beings, and the human named Rick must have realized this, so he is extremely desperate."

- The war will never end.

At least for humanity, there is no future that waits until the war is over.

"Not limited to strategy games, chess or chess - abstract strategy games with war as their theme have a most basic, but also the most improbable premise when compared to real war. Do you know what it is?"

Annan smacked his tongue a little, and suddenly asked Tiamat with the example of a game.

"Is it a chess piece that overlooks the game, or doesn't doubt orders... or something?"

Tiamat, who had played these small games with Annan in her spare time, thought about it carefully, and listed out what she thought of.

But unfortunately.

These answers cannot be said to be wrong, but they are still far from correct.

So Annan shook his head and revealed the correct answer.

"There is a clear victory condition - that is, an ending that is destined to end."

The most basic and biggest difference between war games and real war is here.

Because of this, Annan thinks that Rick is very strong inside.

Because he must have noticed.

That is--

"It's impossible for anyone to end this war."

Annan firmly asserted.

The so-called war is a spiral-like causal chain leading to only one ending.

This battle - can't end.

Even without clairvoyance, Annan could understand this fact.

"Tiamat, look at the sign on the world map. Even if the language is not fluent, I can easily parse out a conclusion - all races in this world are in a state of being each other's enemies."

Annan pointed to the map in Rick's hand and explained further by combining the information he had seen in the human settlement.

"Well, let's not mention humans first. Humans are too weak. If you want to survive in this war, you can only hide yourself, but this is not the case for other races."

"We have also encountered other races before. It can be seen that those races created by gods, I personally think they are chess pieces, pawns placed on the chessboard to fight."

"These races are fighting each other, and I haven't even seen the alliance situation. They are just fighting against everything except themselves."

That being the case, the outcome of this war is obvious.

If it's not a game, but a real war...

Before competing for the strongest, all races will continue to fight, trying to overwhelm the rest.

And in this process, the strongest will be decided.

But once the strongest appears, what follows is just reincarnation.

The rest of the races will join forces to defeat the strongest, and then a new strongest will emerge, and then continue to be defeated.

- The war is still not over.

Reality is different from games, and there is no way to pass the level as long as the conditions are met.

If someone knocks down the strongest, then this time it's just that person knocked down

And then the next one is the downed one is downed, and the next one is downed by the next one...and it goes on forever.

Until the last person is left, or until there is no one left.

That's it.

That is, what Annan said before, only the final winner is left.

And human beings are obviously unlikely to be such winners.

"That's why I said, what a cruel fact this is, the human beings in this world are doomed to perish, and they can't wait for the day when the war ends."

Annan shrugged and came to a conclusion.

"Let alone human beings, no one can end this war, which dragged all existence into an endless abyss from the very beginning."

This is the real war, there is no other ending than destruction.

"As Annan you said, this is too miserable, isn't there really no other ending to this war?"
