Chapter 489 Hope
Chapter 489 Hope
These people look like they just died recently, and there's no hope of them being resurrected.
But why is there a child here?
Looking at the surrounding scenery, Lu Cang reversed everything in his mind. As a decryption scholar, he extracted information from the details of the surrounding environment and gradually reconstructed all the scenes that had happened in this area.
The child behind him was so frightened that his legs went weak.
With a soft thud, he knelt down on the ground.
"It's all over now."
"I have already dealt with the monsters here."
The mind magic gradually spread out ripples of tranquility, soothing the boy's heart. Even though he should have been terrified, he still felt extremely calm under the influence of Lu Cang's magic.
He looked at Lu Cang with a slightly confused expression.
Lu Cangping explained calmly, "I was just passing by when I noticed something was wrong, so I came over."
"But it seems I'm too late."
The boy opened his mouth, his face contorted in pain.
He was in some pain, but under Lu Cang's forceful calming, this painful emotion was suppressed.
"Are they... all dead?" the boy asked.
Lu Cang: "Well, it seems there are no survivors at the moment."
"Why……"
Lu Cang: "This is a dungeon, right? As adventurers, they should be prepared to die in dungeons."
"But why are you here?"
"You're not a job changer, are you?"
Lu Cang glanced at the other person's body. He should only be 9 years old, which is not old enough for him to change jobs.
Even those who awaken early find it difficult to change jobs so early.
Moreover, there was absolutely no trace of the fluctuations of a job changer on him.
"Brother, you're not from around here, are you?"
Actually, the little boy had more questions to ask, but he chose to answer Lu Cang's questions first.
"We live in this underground city."
Lu Cang was slightly taken aback after hearing this.
"Living in an underground city?"
"Ah."
"Dad said that once the dungeon is cleared out, monsters will no longer spawn. If we live in the dungeon, we can avoid attacks from monsters outside."
“Dad also said that there are monsters all over the outside now, and it is too dangerous for us to live outside, so we have to move here.”
The little boy looked somewhat saddened when his father was mentioned.
His gaze involuntarily drifted to the side, and Lu Cang followed his gaze, finding a corpse that shared his bloodline.
These should be his father's remains.
Judging from the extent of the damage and decomposition of the body, it had been dead for three days.
"So that's how it is..."
People from 10 years ago would never have thought of living in an underground city.
Dungeons are, after all, the lair of monsters; living in them is too dangerous.
But unexpectedly, 10 years later, the danger level of the outside world has made people consider living in underground cities to avoid danger.
It really is... a disaster.
Generally speaking, once a dungeon is cleared out, there will be no more monsters.
The vast majority of dungeons are closed after being completely emptied, completely isolated from the real world.
Based on Lu Cang's research over the years, the underground city is indeed part of the lair.
If we use Earth as a metaphor, the Nest is a country, the Cave is a province, and the Underground City is a city or village.
Each village was independent of the others.
There is a spatial division.
Clearing out a dungeon usually means massacring the village, and you won't see any more monsters appearing.
As for what will happen to this underground city afterward, Lu Cang has no idea.
Even with a preview of the future, Lu Cang had no intention of staying in the underground city for long; he just estimated that it would be empty for a while.
Lu Cang pondered for a moment, then asked, "How were you attacked?"
"us……"
“I don’t know either. We moved here three months ago. Dad always says that after we moved here, we won’t see any monsters anymore.”
"I can finally get some rest." "But just three days ago, a monster with bat wings suddenly swooped down into my house and killed my father..."
Lu Cang felt a pang of pity.
I also thought of my parents.
The two slimes are still happily living inside their rings.
It's fortunate that monsters don't need to eat or drink to survive; otherwise, they might have starved to death over these ten years.
Lu Cang even wondered if he could send them directly into the next life by recreating the cycle of reincarnation.
By awakening the memories of their parents' past lives, they can be considered to have been brought back to human form.
After thinking it over, I'll just put this crazy idea on hold.
"Well, I see..."
The cause and effect are roughly understood. In short, monsters suddenly appeared in the dungeon that shouldn't have appeared.
Moreover, these monsters were so powerful that they massacred the entire city.
It's pretty much what I expected.
Scholars have roughly reconstructed what happened here. Apart from some extremely detailed things that can't be completely matched up, the general outline of what happened should be pretty close to the truth.
"Since you've met me..."
"I suppose it's fate that brought you together."
"I can take you to a safer place where you may start a new life."
"A new...place?" The boy's eyes were filled with confusion and bewilderment.
hum-
Lu Cang casually tore it open, and a crack appeared in front of him.
"Moon Sea, the place where the moon is seen."
“I will entrust you to the king there. Actually, it’s not a good place either, but it should be safer for you than here.”
Lu Cang didn't follow up on Wujie Mountain either.
To casually abandon this child in a city in the Boundless Mountains is tantamount to sending him to his death.
In a place where even people have to hide in underground cities to survive, how can a lonely little child survive?
And I saw him.
Lu Cang couldn't help but think of himself.
They found her in the dungeon by Iz and the others, and she knew nothing about this world.
This child probably doesn't know much more than I did back then.
"The Sea of the Moon? That's a very, very far place, isn't it?"
“I heard my father say that it is a distant place that we could never reach even if we went through three lifetimes.”
For ordinary people, simply leaving the sea might be a luxury they can only dream of in their entire lives.
The size of one ocean is far greater than billions of solar systems combined.
Ordinary people do not possess the means of spatial teleportation. Even a level seven job changer can only be trapped in a sea area for their entire life.
Unless an unstable method like random teleportation is used.
"Yes, it's in a place very, very far to the east."
"Are you going?"
"If I go, can I become stronger?" he suddenly asked.
"If I became as strong as you, killing so many monsters in an instant, if I had your power, could I save them all?"
Lu Cang opened his mouth.
He examined the child's spirituality again and found that it was quite high.
"Yes, that's fine."
Lu Cang's voice softened: "There is a premature awakening ritual in the Moon Sea. I can preside over the awakening for you so that there will be no aftereffects."
"But what kind of strong person you want to become, you still have to find that path yourself."
The boy glanced in the direction where his father had died.
Looking at the scorched earth, his gaze then turned to the young man he had only recently met.
"I want to go."
"Please, no... please take me away."
"I want to become stronger."
