Star Dome Railway, why are they also simulating!

[You asked the Beloberg Academy of Sciences to research the blessed berries, and they took it seriously, but they didn't respond for a long time.]

[Just when you were getting anxious, Natasha, with a slightly pale face and a very serious expression, rushed into Klipperburg and came to your office.]

The text on the screen faded, and a new picture emerged:

Natasha's face was pale, and she was holding a piece of paper with densely written experimental records, as well as a rock crab that was unique to the lower area and was wrapped in a stone shell.

But now, dense vines like tiny tentacles have grown on the shell of this rock crab, entwined on the shell and claws like patterns engraved on them, looking extraordinary and strange.

Natasha looked at Ron with a serious expression:

"I conducted some experiments, and these blessing berries that suddenly appeared are different from the blessings we are familiar with..."

Natasha said, swallowing her saliva with lingering fear:

"I don't know why, but..."

“This blessing seems to be enough to swallow up everything.”

PS: Finally, I would like to recommend my good brother’s book again. His 618 event is just when he needs recommendations. As a brother, I must help him a lot.

His four-million-word novel is now on sale at a 618% discount during the discount event. The high-end version only costs Maocoins. It's a huge profit if you pre-order it, but a small one will definitely cost you so much that you will have to ride a bicycle to work!

Don't look at it, this time I deleted all the brackets, only this line proves that there is actually a bracket here

Chapter 4 - The Seed of Disaster, Devouring Everything (k)

Looking at the picture on the light screen, Ron frowned tightly, sat up straight on the bed, and looked at the light screen in front of him seriously.

The thing he was most worried about finally happened.

Also, how can one expect anything from a masked fool?

The Masked Fool treats the whole world as a stage, telling hilarious jokes and looking forward to interesting dramas, just for the pursuit of joy that can prove the existence of human beings.

They can do anything for the pleasure they expect...

After all, this is the concept of the destiny of [Joy]. Although [Joy] Aha himself seems to have transcended a little and is not seriously bound by his own destiny - it may also be because the joy represented by the destiny of [Joy] itself covers too broad a range of the concept of destiny. Even if Aha himself is bound by it, he can still act very humanely and laugh at other star gods for being just stubborn fools.

But ordinary destiny walkers certainly can't do it...Except for the mourners who are intentionally blessed by [Joy] Ahaha, who don't need to abide by the destiny concept of [Joy] destiny, normal Masked Fools are all framed in this concept. According to the nine-square grid of the camp, they are definitely chaotic neutral.

Sambo is naturally no exception... It is completely predictable that he would tamper with the blessed berries, but what does this blessing that can swallow up everything mean?

What on earth did Sambo do to make the blessed berries change into what they are?!

Ron looked at the screen in front of him with a heavy heart. The picture on the screen did not pause and continued to play smoothly:

"Swallow everything?"

Ron in the picture also frowned, stood up from the simple throne, and walked quickly to Natasha's side:

"Have you tried to study these blessed berries distributed by the Masked Fool...what were the results?"

Natasha's face was solemn, and she sighed helplessly:

"You...just look at this and you'll know."

In her hand she held a strange-looking rock crab that had obviously been affected by the blessing.

This crab, with tiny vines entangled around its body, bared its teeth and claws, and tried to clamp Natasha's hand with its huge claws countless times. It was far from being a normal rock crab.

This kind of crab has a gentle temperament. Most of the time, when it sees people, it only dares to hide in the cracks of rocks. It would never dare to wave its claws at people in such a ferocious way.

But because Natasha herself is a destiny walker of the destiny of [Abundance], she has the power of destiny to protect herself, so a small crab is not enough to break her skin and cause any harm to her.

She placed the rock crab in her hand on the desk. The crab waved its claws wildly and clamped hard on the corner of the desk, directly cutting the corner of the exquisite desk in the office of the Great Guardian, which had a history of who knows how many years and was sturdy and durable. It can be seen how aggressive this rock crab is.

Natasha held down the crab to prevent it from running around, and said seriously:

"Rock crabs are rare arthropods in the lower zone. People usually see them in the cracks of rocks in the mine tunnels or on the tables during occasional festivals and celebrations. Their meat is soft, tender, fresh and delicious. This is all the impression people have of them."

As she spoke, her other hand reached into the medicine bag on her waist. "When these crabs see people in the mine tunnel, they always turn around and run away, immediately hiding in the cracks of the rocks. They are full of fear of humans."

"Its ancestor is the 'tunnel rock crab', an arthropod that also travels through the cracks in rocks. The tunnel rock crabs of the past and the rock-dwelling crabs of today are almost the same, except that the tunnel rock crabs are very aggressive, while the rock-dwelling crabs are extremely timid, that's the only difference."

"But do you know... in the history of Beloberg, the rock crab was once a threat no less than a natural disaster, and it almost destroyed the entire Beloberg."

"After the city of Beloberg was built, the lower layer of Beloberg was excavated to develop the earth's marrow... But the biggest threat to our ancestors was not the various dangerous environments underground, but the rampant tunnel rock crabs."

"These crabs are extremely ferocious. They always move in groups, rushing around in the mine tunnels, digging holes one after another, and collapsing layer after layer of ore..."

"If the threat of the tunnel rock crabs cannot be resolved, the Lower Beloberg will completely collapse under their influence, and the Upper Beloberg—the true Everlasting City—will also collapse and fall into the underground caverns, never to see the light of day again."

"After hundreds of years, they were hunted by the people in the lower districts and gradually changed into their current appearance - timid and non-aggressive."

As Natasha spoke, her tone gradually became a little fearful. She took out a dying olm from the medicine bag on her waist, gently placed it on the desk, and released her fingers that were pressing on the rock crab.

The rock crab entangled in tiny vines suddenly spread out its eight tiny crab legs and rushed towards the dying olm at an extremely fast speed.

Even though the olm had lost its vitality after being trapped in Natasha's medicine bag for too long, it was still a little scared of the rock crab and twisted its body frantically, trying to escape from the strange crab...

But the rock crab rushed to its side, and its claws left an afterimage, cutting the olm into several pieces.

The olm didn't even have time to scream before it fell into a pool of blood and turned into pieces of corpse.

This rock crab lay on the pool of blood, picked up the flesh and blood with its claws and put it into its mouth, devouring it in big chunks.

The tiny vines on its body also stretched out thin roots, reaching out to the pool of blood. The blood turned into thin lines and flowed into the roots, making the vines look a little red.

The body of the rock crab was growing bigger and bigger, becoming stronger at a speed visible to the naked eye. The vines on its body were gradually taking root deep inside the crab shell, and more vines were gradually growing, making the crab even more bizarre...

Natasha looked at the rock crab with a complicated expression:

"The fear engraved in its bones for hundreds of years has made the crab timid and gentle, but the blessed berry brought by the Masked Fool only squeezed out a drop of juice. After swallowing the juice, it became like this—"

"He is irritable, aggressive... and extremely greedy. His appetite is as deep as a bottomless pit."

Ron listened to Natasha's words quietly, took a deep look at the rock crab that had eaten the olm on the desk and had become as big as a human head, and punched it without hesitation, smashing the crab that had just finished eating the olm and turned to look at him, as if wanting to use him to satisfy its appetite.

The vines on the crab suffered such a heavy blow that they were directly broken up by Ron's fist, and then many more vines broke.

But they began to grow rapidly, and more and more vines emerged from under the crab shell, trying to gather the crab that was smashed and shattered, as if wanting to restore it to its previous appearance.

But Ron didn't give it any chance. He smashed it into meat paste with a few more punches. Vines flashing with golden light grew out from his hands, completely entwining and engulfing the meat paste, turning it into the most basic nutrients and completely devouring it, leaving no possibility of resurrection.

Ron was silent for a long time, wiped the blood and flesh splashed on his face, and asked Natasha beside him:

"Iwagu crabs are usually no bigger than the size of a palm... How long did it take for it to grow this big?"

A hint of fear appeared on Natasha's face - she was not afraid of the crab, but was afraid of the blessing after being tricked by the Masked Fool.

"After eating the juice of the berries, I only fed it two cave salamanders for experimental purposes before coming here..."

"So...the three olms have become what they are now?"

Ron closed his eyes helplessly, rubbed his brows, walked back to his throne, fell on the throne a little weakly, sat there quietly, and said in a low voice:

"This is not a blessed berry..."

"This is clearly the seed of disaster... Once it grows, it will cover the entire empire and cause Beloberg to fall into darkness forever!"

The image on the screen paused, and new text appeared:

[Natasha shared her research on the Seed of Disaster with you, and you thoroughly understood the effect of the Seed of Disaster.]

[I don't know what methods Sangbo used on it, but its various effects have been greatly enhanced - it is no longer a small blessing that can only make the user immune to the rift and at most enhance the user's physique and appetite. ]

[The creature that swallows the seed of disaster will gain extremely powerful strength, and the vines blessed by the [Abundance] Pharmacist will grow from its flesh and blood, and completely coexist with the creature itself. ]

[The survival ability of the symbiotic organisms will be greatly enhanced. Not only will they be immune to the Rift, but the organisms symbiotic with the Seed of Disaster will begin to evolve without limit. ]

[As long as there is enough food and energy supply, they may eventually evolve into those terrifying beasts that will be marked by the immortal boat, and even let [Hunter] Lan draw his bow and shoot arrows, devouring everything. ]

[But because they can evolve without limit, they will consume the energy they just replenished after evolution... In other words, no matter how much they eat, they will only make themselves stronger, but also become hungrier because of the increase in energy consumption and appetite.]

[If they cannot control their hunger and their instinctive appetite, they will become insatiable devourers, completely abandoning all rationality and falling into the path of gluttony created by desire.]

The text on the light screen faded, and a light red text box popped up.

The text in the text box pops out word by word:

[You know that if that one-third of the people really swallowed the seeds of disaster, everything would immediately fall into darkness.]

[The growing empire will immediately devour the entire empire, making all dreams come to nothing, even if it is right in front of you and will soon be within your reach.]

[Faced with this crisis, you feel extremely conflicted.]

[Where should the empire go? How should it overcome this crisis? Should it be completely desperate and reveal its true colors, or should it trust in human nature and continue to fight?]

[It’s time to make a decision——]

[1. Believe in the people. For the future of the empire, they can suppress human greed.

You can only trust the people. In order to prevent the empire from falling apart, and to survive this crisis that is still in its infancy but will be far more terrifying than the antimatter army and the star core, you must unite all forces.

You need to enter your choice in the text box below, but you can only make choices that meet the prerequisite of "Trust the People". 】

[2. The meanness and greed of human nature are far more terrible than disasters. We must find other solutions.

You can't trust the people. To save the world, and to survive this inevitable catastrophe, you have to give up your illusions.

You need to enter your choice in the text box below, but you can only make choices that meet the prerequisite of "Don't trust the people." 】

Next there is a dark red option box which is different from the previous light red one——

【3 (Permanent), "It's time for everything to end..."

This crisis cannot be solved with the current capabilities of the empire. This is a test for civilization, a test of whether humans will completely destroy civilization because of their own desires... But this test is doomed to fail, because obeying desires is human nature itself. You know that the empire will definitely fall apart in the face of this test.

Why waste time thinking about it?

All dangers and fears come from insufficient firepower... It's time to pray to the [Abundance] Pharmacist and receive the blessing that belongs only to you.

Things can’t get any worse.

Looking at the options on the light screen, Ron couldn't help but remain silent.

For the first time, he felt... maybe, there was no need to try any more.

Choose option number three, get the blessing of the pharmacist, and solve everything once and for all...

But he was silent for a long time, then sighed and gave up the idea.

This option is like cheating in a game. After cheating, the account will be replaced and the actions will be affected by the blessing of the pharmacist. Unless it is the last moment, Ron actually hates this option.

Although the current situation has reached an extremely dangerous point, it is not the final moment yet...

Still have to try your best.

Ron thought so in his mind, thought about it briefly, and clicked option number one.

If he wanted to solve this disaster by himself without praying to the pharmacist, there was no way he could succeed... Even though he didn't believe in human nature, he still had to choose option number one and use the power of the empire to solve all these troubles.

A blank text box popped up on the screen. Ron pondered for a long time and wrote down his choice bit by bit...

Chapter 4 - Ron: The meanness of human nature is far more terrible than disaster, Nata (k)

【Ron gave you an order.】

[He asks you to immediately find a death row prisoner and feed him a large dose of seeds of disaster, and find a way to use the power of the destiny of [Abundance] to stimulate the growth of vines that parasitize him. Do not give him any food supplements, and let the vines absorb his flesh and blood to grow.]

[He asks you to torture the death row prisoner's mind, making him completely collapse under desire, turning him into a madman with only appetite and desire for destruction, and turning him into a terrifying monster parasitized by vines.]

The text on the light screen faded, and a new option box popped up:

[Faced with Ron's request, you felt a little conflicted for a moment.]

【请选择——】

[1. "This is really inhumane, Ron."

You totally cannot understand Ron's actions and don't understand why he would suddenly ask you to do such a cruel thing.

You decided to reject Ron's request, your conscience preventing you from doing something so cruel.

After selecting this option, your favorability with Ron will be slightly reduced, and your [Abundant] destiny progress will be slightly improved. 】
