Apocalypse: I became rich by selling zombie live broadcasts

Chapter 88 Please show your ID when entering the city

Silence permeated the air.

Shi Nianzhen glanced at Qin Kong expressionlessly.

Qin Kong sneered, "A man who has been pushing rocks up the mountain for tens of thousands of years and still can't leave hell, is questioning my path back to the human world."

"Tell me, how did I lie to her?"

Sisyphus glanced at him and said to Shi Nianzhen, "Purgatory was originally a world of death. Later, it was occupied by a group of fallen gods, fallen angels, and demons, and became a filthy abyss."

"The retreat of the Law of Death and the intrusion of other laws have made Purgatory less pure. It is now more like a gray area."

"Whether from Hell or Purgatory, there is only one way out of the world of death - the Red Sea."

"That is the end of all the dead."

“It is also the starting point of all living things.”

"Do you understand what this means?"

Shi Nianzhen tilted his head and thought for a moment: "From what you said, that is the place where souls reincarnate, the starting point of life?"

"Yes, those born from the Red Sea are newborns," Sisyphus said. "They will forget the past and start a new life journey."

Shi Nianzhen frowned slightly, "Are you saying that he tricked me into starting a new life?"

If you don't have the Death Ring, this is indeed a way to leave the world of death.

Reincarnation as a human being... She might not be reborn on Blue Star, but maybe she could escape the apocalypse... It didn't seem like a bad thing.

However, it was wrong to lie to her.

Sisyphus sneered at Qin Kong.

"Tricking you into a new life is the least of my worries."

"But only the dead can be reborn from the Red Sea. If a living person falls into the Red Sea, that's called a sacrifice!"

Shi Nianzhen suddenly widened his eyes and looked at Qin Kong in shock.

Qin Kong looked at her and snorted coldly, "He's wrong. Sacrifice can also lead to rebirth."

Sisyphus kept staring at Qin Kong, "Can you say you didn't trick her into going to the Red Sea for sacrifice?"

Qin Kong didn't bother to pay attention to him. He just calmly said to Shi Nianzhen: "Our target is indeed the Red Sea, but I didn't ask you to sacrifice yourself. Your sacrifice will do nothing for the Red Sea."

"To no avail?" cried Sisyphus, leaping to his feet. "The Red Sea is a sea of ​​blood!"

"As the price for the birth of all things from the Sea of ​​Blood, it is necessary to replenish the Sea of ​​Blood with blood, such as through human sacrifice."

"Ever since the departure of Lilith, the provider, the Sea of ​​Blood has not been replenished for ten thousand years and is nearly dry!"

"The power of the Law of Rebirth is growing weaker, the number of dead in Hell is increasing, and the number of newborns in the world is decreasing."

"Sacrifice is urgently needed there!"

Sisyphus's dark eyes, hidden beneath his messy hair, gleamed strangely as he stared intently at Shi Nianzhen. "Do you understand what I'm saying?"

"He just tricked you into the sacrifice!"

"The blood sea thirsts for blood!"

Sisyphus's excited cry echoed in the cave.

Shi Nianzhen looked at Qin Kong.

Qin Kong looked back at her without any guilt, "I'm not taking you there for sacrifice, I'm just borrowing the passage there."

Shi Nianzhen nodded calmly.

A strange light flashed in Qin Kong's eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled up, "Do you believe me?"

"Oh," Shi Nianzhen said slowly, "After all, I made a deal with the boss that hasn't been completed yet. If I die now, my soul will belong to him, and I really can't be reborn from the Red Sea."

"In this respect, my sacrifice may not be effective?"

"..." Qin Kong wanted to say something but stopped, and opened and closed his mouth several times before finally closing it.

Sisyphus didn't expect that after hearing this, Shi Nianzhen still believed Qin Kong.

His chest heaved violently, and he glared at Qin Kong angrily, "You demons from Purgatory, what you love most is to lure the living to death!"

"I have long seen through your evil intentions!"

"You are colluding with the god of death!"

"In exchange for the right to use Purgatory!"

Qin Kong didn't even bother to look at him, pulled Shi Nianzhen and turned away, "Don't waste time, we should get on the road."

Sisyphus chased out of the cave and shouted at Shi Nianzhen's back:

"Come back, how dare you go with him?"

"Aren't you afraid he'll sacrifice you?"

"Aren't you afraid of death?"

Shi Nianzhen paused and looked back at him. "To be honest, everyone is afraid of death, but now I want to see what is so scary about death and how terrifying the world of death is."

"I don't know why you hate death so much."

"If life is a cycle of reincarnation, then there is not much difference between life and death."

"If you long for the afterlife so much, why don't you continue on? Cross the Red Sea, be reborn, and return to the human world."

Sisyphus roared: "To put it simply, a new life means losing everything and starting over. After a hundred years of hard work, death takes away everything in one day. How hateful and absurd!"

"But you have nothing left," Shi Nian was really puzzled. "Even if you return to the human world now, you are no longer the founder and king of Corinth."

"No matter how absurd it is, can it be as absurd as you pushing a boulder for tens of thousands of years and refusing the reincarnation of your soul?"

“You have to keep moving forward to find a way. It’s not wise to stay where you are.”

Shi Nianzhen slowed down his speech at this point: "Since you've been dead for tens of thousands of years and no one is urging you to be reborn, perhaps you can choose to stay in hell forever and achieve eternal death. That way, you won't lose anything."

Sisyphus glared at her.

Shi Nianzhen continued, "The God of Death said that hell has both villages and cities, with beautiful scenery and unique cuisine. Think about it from another perspective. If you didn't push the boulder for tens of thousands of years, how much wealth would you create in hell, and how good a life would you live?"

Sisyphus was stunned.

"In short, you are free and you can make all kinds of choices."

"I admire your spirit of resisting fate, but if you don't master power, you will never reach the negotiation table, and any struggle will be in vain."

After Shi Nianzhen finished speaking, he got into the car without looking back.

Driving towards the dark road in the distance, she planned to follow it to the city.

Shi Nianzhen stared straight ahead, the only sound in her ears being the sound of tires grinding gravel, and the endless desert scenery outside the window. She was still some distance away from the dark road, but she couldn't help herself.

She glared at the passenger seat fiercely, "If you have something to say, just say it. Why are you staring at me?"

"Heh~" Qin Kong chuckled, "Miss, you are much more determined than I thought."

"Huh? What does that mean?"

"It's hard for others to shake you with just a few words," Qin Kong said, "I was worried that you would be easily bewitched."

Shi Nianzhen glanced at him and said, "You old people don't understand. We young people of the new era are like this. We have our own unique insights into people and things."

"Also, the three no's principle that the country has been promoting against fraud for so long should be remembered."

"If you believe anything anyone says, you're just a three-year-old, right?"

"What's more, I have 300 points of willpower. If you want to seduce me, you have to pay something, right?"

Shi Nianzhen held her head high proudly.

"Do you know what you look like now?" Qin Kong said with a smile.

"What?" "Proud peacock."

Boom!
Qin Kong had barely finished speaking when he was punched on the shoulder. He groaned and gasped.

Shi Nianzhen's punch now is completely different from before, and this is no joke.

"Now you are a little tiger that is angry and embarrassed." Qin Kong said with an unchanged expression.

Boom!
Qin Kong was punched on the shoulder again.

This time, he heard the sound of bones breaking.

He touched his shoulder and said with a grin, "The strength you have now is what a person who rebels against fate should have."

Shi Nianzhen snorted and posed a threatening gesture, "Then you better be careful. If I get upset, I'll knock you down."

"That's what I want." Qin Kong said with a smile.

Shi Nianzhen glanced at him sideways, stepped on the accelerator and drove the car onto the dark road, then slammed on the brakes and stopped by the roadside.

"Are you going to beat me down here?" Qin Kong asked.

"Yeah, I can't wait." Shi Nianzhen's face was full of provocation, and he pressed the car window with one hand.

"I suggest we go back to our portable home to fight." Qin Kong tilted his head and smiled.

Shi Nianzhen rolled her eyes at him, turned her head and said to a pale ghost passing by the window: "Excuse me, which way should I go to get to the nearest city?"

The ghost with a dazed face was stunned for a moment, then turned his head a little late, staring at Shi Nianzhen with eyes as white as egg whites.

"..." Shi Nianzhen quickly looked her over and asked, "Could you tell me the nearest city from here—?"

"Ahhhhh!" the ghost suddenly screamed in a soprano voice, interrupting her.

"The abyss demon is attacking!"

"Someone come quickly!"

"Quickly notify the Lord of the Underworld!"

Hearing her scream, Shi Nianzhen's pupils shrank and he immediately closed the car window. Before the surrounding dead could react, he stepped on the accelerator to the floor, and the car took off, roaring away.

Even when he could no longer see the ghost in the rearview mirror, Shi Nianzhen felt his head was still throbbing.

The ghost's scream did not cause any harm, but it reminded her of the previous time when she was attacked by a ghost and her supernatural powers were ineffective.

She said with lingering fear: "Why do ghosts always like to scream?"

"Heh~" Qin Kong laughed, "I guess that ghost didn't expect that someone from the Abyss Camp would be so brazen as to ask her for directions?"

"..." Shi Nian was really confused, "Why didn't Sisyphus react so much when I talked to him before?"

"You lost your memory?" Qin Kong raised his eyebrows.

Shi Nianzhen paused for a moment. Sisyphus didn't seem to react calmly either, and even threw stones at them, but she thought it was because he hit a huge rock.

Or perhaps Sisyphus was venting his emotions.

But just now when they were about to leave, Sisyphus was also very excited...

Shi Nianzhen frowned, "Could it be that the emotions of the deceased are not stable?"

Qin Kong shrugged, "Who knows."

"However, the ghost just now sounded like a subordinate of the Lord of the Underworld. She won't report us, right?" Shi Nianzhen said.

"I guarantee it." Qin Kong said.

She frowned in worry for a while, then suddenly turned her eyes to Qin Kong, "...then why are you so calm?"

"if not?"

Seeing Shi Nianzhen's frown so tight that it could kill a fly, Qin Kong sneered, "Miss, you're afraid of others reporting you, but you're not afraid of the Lord of the Netherworld finding out where you are through the live broadcast?"

Shi Nianzhen was stunned for a moment, then reacted: "Oh, that's right."

The Lord of the Underworld knows her live broadcast room!
The situation has become serious.

She looked around and confirmed that no one was following them, then breathed a sigh of relief: "She hasn't sent anyone after us yet."

"The live broadcast was conducted at the top of Sisyphus Mountain where the God of Death forcibly imprisoned me. This means that the Lord of the Underworld can only chase me to this point."

"It's a shame you showed yourself to that ghost and let her see you. If the Lord of the Underworld was tracking her seriously, she should be here soon."

Shi Nianzhen quickly glanced at the rearview mirror and paused, "Do we still need to divert through the city?"

"Do you have any other ideas?" Qin Kong asked.

"Look, now we have a car and can see the road. Why don't we go directly to the Red Sea?" Shi Nianzhen said.

"Do you know where the Red Sea is?" Qin Kong asked.

The problem is back to square one.

Or you can only go to the city of the dead.

After driving for an unknown amount of time, a city with tall white jade walls appeared in front of them.

There were more and more dead bodies on the black road. Ghosts and skeletons were the most common, and there were also many zombies, vampires, and werewolves. Some were walking, some were driving carriages, some were driving classic cars, and some were driving hovercrafts, all heading towards the White Jade City that was emitting a bright white light in the darkness.

The moment Shi Nianzhen saw the city, he rudely drove the car off the dark road and into the desert.

After a long time, two zombies, one tall and one short, staggered out from the depths of the desert, slowly walked up the dark road, joined the crowd, and headed towards Baiyu City.

The two zombies were covered in dried dark blood, showing no trace of human aura, and also obscuring the dark red and black light on Shi Nianzhen's body.

As they got closer, Shi Nianzhen, the zombie with a rotten face, looked up at the huge word "Netherworld" on the city gate and cursed inwardly.

"Sometimes I really doubt whether luck can really bring luck." Shi Nianzhen muttered in a low voice.

The zombie Qin Kong, who had a black eye patch covering one eye, chuckled softly, "Don't doubt it, even if your personal page shows a luck value of 300, the undisplayed bad luck value is not low either."

"I didn't know these two values ​​could exist at the same time."

"Of course, they don't generally exist at the same time, but chaos is the characteristic of the end of the world." Qin Kong said meaningfully.

"..." Shi Nianzhen had no expression on her face.

Okay, just pretend she didn't ask.

After walking for more than half an hour, they finally approached the city gate.

Only then did Shi Nianzhen realize that the city wall she thought was made of white jade was actually made of bones. The city wall made of white bones was estimated to be more than a hundred meters long.

Before he even stepped into the city wall, Shi Nianzhen, who had been holding up his phone and taking pictures, was stopped by a ghost.

She was wearing armor, two meters tall, and looked very majestic, but there was a hint of contempt in her eyes.

"Photography is prohibited in Nether City." Her tone contained a hint of hostility.

Shi Nianzhen hadn't figured out how to answer her yet.

She looked him up and down, thinking, "You seem to be acting suspiciously. Could you be someone of unknown origin?"

The deceased around pointed at Shi Nianzhen and whispered to each other.

Shi Nianzhen secretly said something bad, and showed a look of deep fear, "I just died not long ago. The first time I entered the city, I took some pictures as a souvenir. I won't take any more now."

Yes, she started live streaming again, but this time she specifically asked Pepe to delay the broadcast for half an hour, and she herself would not appear on the screen.

Shi Nianzhen stuffed the phone into the dirty rag bag behind her.

The ghosts, skeletons and other dead people nearby saw this and muttered a few words of complaint, calling him a country bumpkin.

"Show me your ID." The ghost female soldier ignored her excuses and said coldly.

Shi Nianzhen blinked slowly to hide his inner anxiety.

Damn it, where does she get any ID?
Does the Death Ring count?
