The end of the world begins with failing an exam

Chapter 518 Invitation from Jizhou Capital
From the first day of the construction of Kakosa, the overall atmosphere of the walled city has undergone extremely subtle changes.

In fact, there were signs of this change long ago.

That was not long after Chen Jing and others first joined the Walled City... This group of Walled City residents who worked hard to survive in the wasteland and had "one day at a time" as their life goal began to look forward to their future for the first time. .

It all has to do with Chen Jing’s dog-legged duo, Ryan Anu.

of course.

Mr. Shu and Jerry who joined later also contributed a lot.

Especially Mr. Shu, an "old guy" who talks a lot, has been holding back in the library for so many years, and it was not until he got out of trouble that he had the chance to free his nature... He redefined what it means to be a "talkative" in the Walled City.

without any exaggeration.

Mr. Shu can talk to people alive.

Its big mouth, which looks like a piece of book pages, never stops, no matter day or night, as long as it can catch someone to chat with, its mouth will not stop.

At first, Mr. Shu would take the other person’s interests and hobbies into consideration and talk about what others were willing to listen to. Later, he started talking about everything in the world...

But Mr. Shu’s favorite topics are still those three.

Or an impassioned account of one's own greatness.

Or he was complaining about how difficult it was to be locked up in a dark room for so many years.

Or... just sing praises for Chen Jing.

If Jerry's flattery is natural, and Mu Qiang's factor is the main motivation, then Mr. Shu's flattery of Chen Jing is really a technicality.

It's not as empty and unreal as others, Mr. Shu's every flattery is captured in reality, which makes Chen Jing feel like "this is not flattering me or complimenting me, but telling the truth".

Because of this, the more Chen Jing read about Mr. Shu, the more he liked him. He would talk to him every now and then about his plans for Kakosa, and he would receive no less than half an hour of "flattering" from his heart and soul.

Closer to home.

There are creatures like Mr. Book who are familiar with old history as the trumpet, coupled with the "remitting efforts" of Jerry Laine Anu and the others... Oh, by the way, there is also Mona, the little girl who is similar to a soul body.

Although her faith was Bai Aji, after Bai Aji tried her best to explain it (if not counting the big sword that Yergetos put on its neck), Mona had quietly transferred her belief. .

you could put it that way.

In today's walled city, except for those candidates and some madmen who focus on scientific research, everyone else regards Chen Jing as their faith. You can hear it from Mr. Shu's dictation...compared to Yong Ye's The moon god Gheluo or Turing Heavenly Lord of the Hanging City, Chen Jing, the "Lord of Deep Space", is the real big shot.

Although some people had roughly guessed Chen Jing's origin before this, and had even seen him on the wanted notices of some major forces, they only knew some superficial information through those channels.

Dangerous elements, disorderly maniacs, etc... Who would have thought that the identity of "Lord of Deep Space" would be so valuable! ?

Mr. Shu told everyone.

For example, in the ancient times, creatures like Gherro and Turing were simply inferior. Those ancient kings who were famous in history could beat the shit out of them at any time.

And the Lord of Deep Space is the King of Kings.

One truly stands above all things.

The person in charge of the ultimate order of the entire old age...

God.

……

"That smelly book is really talkative." "Huh?"

"Why do I feel like that guy is almost blowing me up as the reincarnation of the Yellow King?"

Chen Jing and Qiao Youning stood on the rooftop of the walled city, looking at the smoke-filled construction site several kilometers away, with Mr. Shu's magical voice constantly echoing in their minds.

Although it feels quite good to be stared at and praised by that book, sometimes I can't help but blush when I think about it. After all, having someone singing praises in my ears every day is really not something that ordinary people can bear.

"I'm not as great as King Huang."

Chen Jing held up the iron guardrail on the edge of the rooftop with his hands. He felt that the oncoming wind had a mechanical smell, like rusty iron. He smelled it carefully and felt itchy in his nose.

"You can't tell what will happen in the future." Qiao Youning's eyes are always on the sky, and she seems to be very interested in the clouds that move with the wind. "Maybe you will be greater than King Huang in the future, but I would rather you not be so Great…it’s good right now.”

"What should I say?" Chen Jing looked at her.

"Greatness comes with a price." Qiao Youning murmured, with a hint of worry hidden in her soft voice, "And you may not be able to afford this price."

"Like the original Huang King?" Chen Jing asked with a smile.

"Yes, just like him."

Qiao Youning stretched out, her graceful and graceful body curves fully exposed under her simple casual clothes.

"Leave a great name in history, and then lose everything out of control, friends, dependents, family, and the former Kakosa... This is the price of greatness."

Perhaps sensing that the atmosphere was a bit solemn, Qiao Youning changed the subject and pointed at the figures busy at the construction site.

"Actually, you are great enough for them."

Qiao Youning's eyes were full of unabashed admiration, and she seemed to be back to the time when she was studying in an instant. She would always look at Chen Jing like this every time the results came out in the exam.

"You have provided these people with a safe and comfortable living environment, so that they no longer have to live like doomsday refugees. They can walk in the wasteland without any scruples and look at the sunshine. It also allows them to temporarily forget the horror of polluted species. Have time to enjoy the green water and green mountains around you..."

At this point, Qiao Youning couldn't help but laugh and raised her finger to point at her eyes.

"In the past, their eyes were all gloomy, as if they had no hope for the future, and they could only live one day at a time, but now I can see... their mental outlook is completely different from before, and they should all have a bright future. Longing, this is what a normal person should look like."

There are no normal people living in the wasteland.

This is the consensus of the wasteland.

No matter what power background you have behind you, as long as you live in the wasteland for a long time, it will always become abnormal... But in the Western Continent, this law that envelopes the entire wasteland seems to be reversed by Chen Jing.

He gave these people a chance.

A chance to live a normal life.

"Listen to what you say... I seem to be quite great, huh?" Chen Jing looked at the construction site that was gradually taking shape, and he couldn't help but feel an inexplicable sense of satisfaction in his heart.

"Yeah!" Qiao Youning nodded crazily, "You're already great!"

"But having said that..." Chen Jing looked away from the construction site and looked back at her, "You Ning, why did you call me up alone for something important?"

"The abbot of our temple is back."

Qiao Youning said softly, her eyes drifting towards the direction of the temple.

"He wants to see you."
