The end of the world starts with failing the exam

"A Jing! Come and take a look!"

Suddenly, Chen Jing heard Wei Nan calling him, and following the sound, he saw her standing by the pool with Yan Que, tiptoeing into the water.

"Be careful!" Chen Jing was just like a parent taking his children out. His first reaction when he saw their dangerous behavior was to remind them, "Hold on with your hands! Don't fall in! I don't know if the water is poisonous or not... …”

At this time, Wei Nan had already stretched out most of her body, while Yan Que carefully held her right hand from behind, fearing that she would fall in.

"Oh, I'm not a child!"

Wei Nan was pulled back by Chen Jing, with an unfinished expression on his face.

When she thought about the fun things at the bottom of the pool, she became extremely excited.

"Come and look! There's something swimming at the bottom of the pond! I don't know if it's a fish!"

"fish?"

Chen Jing glanced at Wei Nan dubiously.

"Where did the fish come from in this place..."

Holding the stone bricks on the edge of the pool with his hands, Chen Jing carefully stuck his head out and looked into the water.

At first, all he could see was the simulated sea of ​​​​cosmic stars, but when he looked carefully... he found that far away from the water, there was a group of translucent things swimming continuously.

Not like a fish.

But it is indeed a "living creature".

Like a jellyfish!

"Is this the ritual for your promotion sequence?!"

Bai Aji, who had previously escaped from Chen Jing's body, was already wandering around the ruins.

For an immortal species like it, it doesn't matter even if it encounters an accident.

After all, its strength can't compete with Yagertos, so it's best used as a pathfinder.

"Have you found the ritual?!" Wei Nan is now very sensitive to the four words promotion sequence. Hearing Bai Aji's shout in the distance, he was immediately excited, "Wait for me to come here now!"

Seeing Wei Nan dragging Yan Que and running over, Chen Jing and others hurriedly followed.

"This is it."

Baiaji was spinning around the first stone bucket on the right side of the pool.

It seemed to sense that something was wrong with the stone in front of it, and it was observing it with a scrutinizing gaze from beginning to end.

At this moment, Chen Jing and the others also rushed over. Seeing Wei Nan running up to Shi Lei without saying a word, Lawrence, who was on the side, quickly grabbed her with quick eyes and hands.

"Why are you so anxious?" Lawrence frowned and said in a helpless tone, "Aren't you afraid of a trap here?"

There is really nothing outstanding about the stone pile in front of everyone. It looks like a pile of palm-sized pebbles, with a strange stone pillar standing in the middle, with two characters from the old era engraved on it.

Chen Jing remembered clearly that these two words had appeared over the pool before, and Jegertos had also explained them. The literal meaning was...

"Demon-hating!" Hassad recognized the words on the stone pillar and said excitedly, "This should be the starting device of an ancient ritual! I have seen similar ones in other ruins!"

"There are two more over there." Chen Bofu looked thoughtfully at the other two stone buckets in the distance.

Everyone looked at each other and then started running in the direction of the other two Shizui.

as predicted.

Each stone bucket corresponds to the indented text on the edge of the pool.

They are Demon-Demonstration, Ji Hui, and Living Soldier Tomb.

Except for the different characters engraved on the stone pillars, these stone pillars are completely identical in other places.

"Three of us here have heard the divine revelation of the promotion sequence...and there are exactly three rituals for the promotion sequence here..."

Chen Jing murmured in his heart, feeling that this was such a coincidence that it was hard for him to believe it.

But the "him" in his mind didn't think it was strange.

"What's so strange about this? It's just like playing a game. Some characters can trigger tasks at designated locations. I also encountered an ancient ruins and attracted more than thirty ancient descendants at the same time..."

"Candidate?" Chen Jing asked.

"No, it's just the old descendant, over there in Jiridu City..."

"Why don't you tell me all the ancient ruins you know?" Chen Jing thought in his mind, "I'll go to every place once, maybe I can get some more benefits."

"Your path to promotion is different from mine. It's useless to tell you about those places. Besides, the ancient ruins I've been to have narrowly escaped death. I advise you to be more cautious. It's not good for you to be quick and easy. Just let nature take its course... …”

After saying that, "he" sighed, seeming a little envious.

"Don't let everyone take risks for you anymore."

"……Understood."

While Chen Jing was talking to "him", Wei Nan and the others had already discussed the results.

These three ancient rituals correspond to the three of them.

"I am a self-loathing demon in Sequence 3, so the first ritual should be mine. You said before that you were a descendant of a military tomb..."

"The living grave should be mine."

"Then the remaining Ji Hui is mine?" Yan Que was a little confused and murmured with a confused look on his face, "Does this have anything to do with Gehro?"

In fact, when they learned that Yan Que had heard the divine revelation, Chen Jing and the others were a little surprised, and could even be said to be in disbelief.

Because the source of the Yan Que Moonlight Sequence comes from Gehro... In other words, the opportunities for her to advance to the sequence are all in Eternal Night City. This should be fixed and there can be no exceptions.

the reason is simple.

The source of her sequence is still alive.

So where is the source.

She must stay within the scope of the source's influence for sequence advancement.

"Actually, I thought it was a little strange at the beginning... Why can you hear Gehro's divine revelation in the wasteland... But now I think about it..."

Chen Bofu was mumbling something while holding a cigarette in his mouth. His cloudy eyes seemed to become clearer, as if he had thought of some possibility.

"How do you say it?" Lawrence was also curious and couldn't help but ask.

Chen Boxu ignored him and turned to look at Yan Que.

"Yanque."

"what?"

"Are you sure the source of the moonlight sequence is Gehro?"

Chapter 295: The Colorful Deep Space: Nameless Haze (Part 1)

Chen Bofu's sudden question not only made Yanque completely confused, but also made everyone around him confused.

If the moonlight sequence didn't come from Gehro, who could it have come from?

"Yes! This is a doubtful point!"

After all, Old Man Hassad "graduated" from Hanging City. Like most alchemists, his intelligence channels on the virtual network are beyond what ordinary people can imagine. Even if he has never been to Eternal Night City, his knowledge of [Moonlight Hermitage] ] is also quite familiar with it.

"I almost forgot your identity... you are a scapegoat...Gehro's scapegoat!!" Hassad said excitedly, "Old Chen's analysis makes sense! You can meet the promotion in the wasteland The divine revelation of the sequence is enough to prove..."

"The source of the moonlight sequence is not Gehro." Chen Boxu took over the words, and then glared at Hassad fiercely, "What are you showing off with my analysis results! You won't die if you don't say a few words!"

"If the source of the moonlight sequence is not Gehro... who else could it be..." Yan Que became increasingly confused.

"How do the people in your monastic order get promoted?" Chen Bofu asked even though he knew the answer.

"Use Gehro's power to obtain its gifts." Yanque answered truthfully.

"Were you all in Eternal Night City when you were promoted to the sequence?" Hassad on the side couldn't help but interjected and asked, "Is there any monk who can be promoted to the sequence outside of Eternal Night?"

"There seem to be a few..." Yanque murmured thoughtfully, seeming to be lost in memories, "but the Pope's explanation is that Gehro is everywhere...always protecting them...that's why he can be in other places Promotion sequence..."

"He is bragging." Chen Bofu sneered, "If I had known about those living examples, I would definitely go to the parish and slap him in the face. The explanation he gave can only deceive you young people... …”

"There are also many old people in the monastery." Lawrence reminded calmly, "They may have been deceived, or they may not care at all."

"Oh, don't worry about this! I'm going to start the ritual first!" Wei Nan had no patience to continue listening to their analysis, turned around and ran to his own ritual, "I have heard the divine revelation! Just pour your own blood Just drop it on the stone pillar to start the ritual!"

"I heard it too." Tsukano Koshiro on the side nodded, turned around and walked towards the ancient ritual called "Living Soldier Tomb".

"Try it."

Chen Boxu had no intention of moving at this moment.

He raised his chin and pointed at the ancient ritual called "Ji Hui" in front of him.

"If this ritual really allows you to advance to the rank, then it can prove that Gehro is a god thief..."

"God thief?" Chen Jing was confused when he heard it.

"Gehro is not the only ancient creature in history who calls himself the 'Moon God'. Maybe it is the kind of scum that steals the power of the ancient gods and uses it to deceive the world." Chen Bofu sneered.

At this moment, Yan Que had already walked into the ritual formation according to Chen Boxu's instructions. He raised his hand and gently scratched his index finger with his nail, and dropped a drop of blood on the stone pillar inscribed with the word "Ji Hui".

next second.

The "pebbles" covering the ground trembled violently, as if summoned by some kind of power.

They one after another got rid of the influence of gravity and slowly floated into the air at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"We did have a recognized moon god in our time."

Jegertos, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.

Looking at the stones that gradually transformed from a rocky state into a white luminous body, there was a trace of memory in his tone.

"But it's a pity that she died too early, otherwise..."

"Which one are you talking about?" Chen Boxu asked curiously.

"Algoa."

When Jegertos said this name, he subconsciously clenched the cross sword in his hand.

"She is a neutral in the old war and is very powerful."

"More powerful than you?" Chen Jing asked.

"Well, he is more powerful than me. He is not the kind of king of the past who can be driven away by us..."

at the same time.

Yan Que has been shrouded in these extremely white lights, just like the scene during Ryan's promotion sequence, and the whole person was wrapped in a huge cocoon of light.

The same is true for Wei Nan and Tsukano Kushiro.

After activating the ancient ritual for sequential promotion, they were all wrapped in cocoons of light of different colors.

Wei Nan's light cocoon exudes scarlet light, almost condensing into a liquid state.

The surface of the light cocoon is like blood flowing, with ripples visible to the naked eye.

The cocoon of light that wrapped Tsukano Kushiro inside was pure black, with a very strong metallic feel on the surface, like an iron ball suspended in mid-air.

"Why am I a little envious of them..." Chen Jing couldn't help but sigh, with a somewhat aggrieved expression on his face, "Every time I was promoted, I had to fight to the death, but they went smoothly and were able to complete the promotion easily..."

"If we weren't here, they would be dead." Chen Boxu's words were in line with the actual situation. "Do you think they can deal with the tree above?"

"The mural is also a trap." Lawrence reminded from the side.

"Speaking of murals, I remember a certain old immortal who wanted to come to this ancient ruins just for some bullshit mural."

Chen Bofu suddenly twitched the corner of his mouth and tried very hard to control the expression on his face. As he spoke, he looked back at Hassad, his tone indescribable gloating.

"Haha! If you want to see those murals, just go back! Go and see more! You can even take them home and hide them under the covers!"

At this moment, Hassad was standing silently on the edge of the pool. It was not known when he ran over, looking as if he wanted to commit suicide by jumping into the water and not wanting to live.

"Not those."

Hassad said without looking back. He lowered his head and didn't know what he was looking at. His tone became inexplicably serious.

"Damn it, did I speak too harshly?" Chen Boxu was stunned and looked at Chen Jing in disbelief, "The old guy can't think too hard, right?"
