…
Su Xiao saw that Lin Jiu had signed the contract without any operation, so he did the same. He had learned from Lin Jiu that there was too much room for operation in the contract, and he had learned a lot. He was always very cautious about this kind of thing. However, Lin Jiu was unlikely to make a mistake, so he could trust him.
At the moment they signed the contract, the surrounding environment changed dramatically, the walls became dilapidated, the wooden fences were severely corroded, and some places were about to break.
"This is what this world looks like." The old wizard laughed self-deprecatingly. Su Xiao ignored the old wizard and walked quickly to the branch of the wizard association and looked at the street. Everything was in ruins, the wooden houses were stained, and the wood in some places had rotted into slag.
The pedestrians on the street were pale and thin, and the clothes they wore were not only worn out, but also covered with patches. The only scene similar to the past was the fruits and vegetables sold on the street stalls. However, compared with the previous fresh and plump state, these fruits and vegetables now appear dry and shrunk. Some stalls can only sell rotten leaves.
"Young man, do you want to eat?" An old woman selling fruit picked up a bunch of grapes from the stall. This bunch of grapes has been severely dehydrated and is about to turn into raisins. However, the kindness in the old woman's eyes has not diminished because of this bunch of dried grapes. Compared with the disguised "happiness" that Su Xiao had witnessed before, this is the real and simple side of life. Despite the poverty of life, this simple kindness is priceless.
Lin Jiu did not look at the street, but looked up at the sky. The whole city had changed. There was no warm sunshine in the sky, but dark clouds. The scorching sun just now was an illusion. Lin Jiu could feel that behind the dark clouds, the decayed sun was emitting its last radiance, trying to bring the few rays of hope to this decayed world. But the thick dark clouds, like the haze shrouding this world, intercepted this warmth ruthlessly in the sky.
The scene Su Xiao saw before was not an illusion. The little boy, the soldiers, etc., all existed in reality, but were just disguised. This world was full of malice towards outsiders. He looked sideways and found that Lin Jiu, who had always been a little cynical, had a little more seriousness in his eyes.
It seemed that in his impression, this guy rarely showed such an expression. In the battle and fighting, he would also go all out, but in terms of temperament, there was always a sense of frivolity. This was the first time Su Xiao saw Lin Jiu like this.
"A world with some interest." Su Xiao suddenly felt that the trip was worthwhile, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Don't look at me like that. It's just that the sun in this world is telling me how it wails." Lin Jiu noticed Su Xiao's eyes, buried his emotional changes, and returned to his indifferent look.
His mind returned to the main business. After seeing the true appearance of the world, many doubts in his heart were solved. This world is not forbidden to develop technology, but it can't develop at all. Why is there so little information in the introduction of this world? Mysticism is prosperous? Of course it is prosperous. In this world, other than mysticism, nothing else can be developed.
And the rule of the wizard association, no, there is no need to rule at all. The food and clothing of the civilians have become a problem. Who would still want to rebel?
In other words, resistance seems meaningless, because the problem is rooted in environmental factors and has nothing to do with who holds power. The wizard association only needs to maintain the basic social order and ensure the stable operation of the monetary system. There is no need to intervene too much in other aspects, and there is no need to worry about it.
Of course, there is no kingdom in this world. The king leads the people to prosperity. Judging from the current situation, the king is unnecessary and impossible to exist.
Rich? Even the sun in this world is rotten. The scarcity of various materials is naturally an inevitable trend of development. Only the special area of Black Abyss and Dark Land does not need the sun's radiance.
"Perhaps I encountered the only weirdo among the ancient gods last time." Su Xiao thought that the reason why this world became like this was because the ancient gods sucked this world, and suddenly realized something.
He seemed to have encountered the ancient god in a native world, and that ancient god was called Moon God. Now thinking back, Moon God is really an alternative among the ancient gods. That native world developed well, and there were even people who borrowed his power.
"I wonder what the scene would be like if the sun of this world was completely detonated." Lin Jiu had a crazy idea in his mind, but he quickly threw this idea out of his head, not to mention whether he could do it. If he really did it, except for a grand fireworks show, it would not benefit him at all. He would not do such a thing.
When Lin Jiu turned around, he saw Su Xiao habitually put his hand on the hilt of the knife. He hated these guys who talked nonsense the most, and was ready to have a physical negotiation with the other party. But then the reminder of the reincarnation paradise ended his idea.
[Warning: Hunters are prohibited from harming the arcane wizard, Hughes Archide, as he is a friendly unit! ]
Lin Jiu saw Su Xiao was forced to let go of the knife handle, and smiled unkindly. Why did the Samsara Paradise and the Holy Light Paradise trade in this world? Because this place is so damn special, or it is precisely this specialness that has reached the prerequisite for the transaction. At least the physical negotiation method that Su Xiao is good at cannot be used, and he, the negotiation expert, has to take the stage.
"This old..."
"Hurry up and get on the teleportation array." The old wizard interrupted Lin Jiu directly. He naturally knew that Lin Jiu and the others could not hurt him, so there was no need to worry about anything.
"This old idiot!" Lin Jiu cursed inwardly and took Isabella and the others to the legendary array. Baha on the side wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, so he could only hold it back, because Lin Jiu really knew how to pluck hair.
The teleportation array flickered faintly. Compared with the teleportation in the Samsara Paradise, this teleportation array was obviously much simpler. The array map was full of black stains, and some positions were damaged. Lin Jiu suspected that this thing was difficult to teleport one person, and it was not known whether it would break down halfway to teleport so many of them at one time.
The world around him was torn apart like an old film, twisting into a ball quickly, and a bumpy feeling came from all around. After a while, the scene in front of him returned to normal, and the world that was broken into strips was pieced together again and slowly healed.
A faint musty smell drifted into his nose, and Su Xiao looked around and found himself in a room with old furnishings. The room was mainly built of black rock, and as time went by, the wooden furniture had become a little black. The wax on the candlesticks piled up, and the candlelight still burned tenaciously.
Baha and Bubuwang were teleported together, but there was no sign of Lin Jiu's team, which puzzled Su Xiao. Could this teleportation array also teleport in batches? However, Su Xiao was not very worried about Lin Jiu's safety. He knew best that guy's ability to survive.
