Chapter 785: Escape

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

At Vigilante A’s farm villa.

Zheng Dao was going online in the study.

A message was sent to him from a demon-slaying forum he frequented. He was shocked at what he read.

“The execution of an Upper Realm deity!”

He immediately read the post to get more information.

Halfway through, he suspected that whoever posted it must have been a witness to the scene.

The post had a video in it but it was blurred. It must have been re-recorded after being played back with magic.

It also meant that this was the memory of the witness being played...

The video may not be clear enough, but it was quite complete.

The video was recorded clearly from the moment the Golden Armored Deity started announcing the rules in the great hall to the moment he was defeated by the Venerable Dragon God.

Everyone had a clearer understanding of the source of cause and effect after watching it.

Zheng Dao had mixed feelings after finishing the post.

It was no wonder that Ren Ruofeng had suggested a union in marriage. It looked like he had a lot of information about mattered and was highly confident in the Venerable One.

There were many comments below the post, many of which were just joining in the fun. After all, there were not many of those who are in the know.

“This Upper Realm deity is such a tyrant, but in the end, he’s really not much of anything...”

“Stop disclosing your ignorance, didn’t you see his attack mode? Would you be able to steer clear of it? I believe not many powerhouses would be able to defend against him. Only the formidable Sir Dragon God would have the ability to take care of him with ease.”

“Yeah, it may look easy but it’s really quite frightening. If one were to be slightly weaker, he or she would turn into green smoke, just like that great hall.”

Zheng Dao went deep into thought at this statement.

No doubt this post had been given permission by a higher power to be posted online for discussion so blatantly.

It looked like someone up there wanted everyone to know the truth about the moral conduct of these so-called deities and Buddhas from the Upper Realm.

They were not some benevolent Goddess of Mercy who would make wishes come true by being offered a few incense sticks.

Come to think of it, the origin of the Goddess of Mercy came from the imaginations of men with their own views, an imaginary idol.

How would true deities and Buddhas work according to the wishes of men?

Zheng Dao continued reading. There were more and more comments with contents of panic.

“Sigh, it is unexpected that the gods from the Upper Realm act in this manner. We’re going to have a hard life in the future. The Venerable Dragon God may be able to defeat one of them, but can he defeat a few of them?”

“Yeah, it looks like we are coming close to Armageddon. It’s time we should save up on dry food and grains. It’s called digging a deep hole and accumulating grain...”

“What’s the point of digging a hole? Do you know the story about God destroying the world? All it would take is a huge flood to drown you.”

“Then what? We migrate to the Upper Realm? Isn’t there a new piece of land just above our heads? I can’t believe no country has ever managed to take the lead to develop it after all this while.”

“That’s wishful thinking. There’s no air or water up there. The Biosphere Plan was just recently relaunched, how would it be possible to finish the research? Besides, it would be useless especially since it’s a very close distance.”

“True. According to the contents of the science fiction novel I’ve been reading, it would be the end for those who choose to continue staying on Earth. Only those with the notion of escaping have the right though, we should be promoting escape...”

“That’s right, we should start organizing for countries to build spaceships and migrate to outer space and we can start breeding Earth’s civilization. We should not put all our eggs in one basket...”

“That’s really wishful thinking, do we even have that technology?”

There were a lot of ideas being introduced. Zheng Dao could imagine the look of panic behind every computer and every phone.

With the bright and wonderful masks of these deities and Buddhas peeled off, all that was left were a bunch of extremely violent, wicked, savagely unreasonable dictators who wanted feudal imperialism. There might be a few kings with good hearts but that would be few and far between.

Mortals would not be able to restrain them. Mankind had to evolve for thousands of years before being able to place their strength in a cage for the common folk to have a way to restrain the person sitting on the throne.

Now, it was like going back to square one.

When the vitality era had first started, people were fearful of the emerging demons. There were quite a number of strange happenings. The appearance of the Venerable Dragon God had helped the strengthening of cultivation in different countries, effectively keeping these demons at bay.

However, a new threat had emerged, and it looked as if there was no way to fight it. It was more frightening than a natural disaster.

Even the latest technology was unable to do much when it came to earthquakes, volcano eruptions or asteroids hitting the Earth. The only thing that could be done was to hide, and there was a chance that you had nowhere at all to stay hidden.

These powers wielded by the deities and Buddha were far more powerful than these natural disasters.

...

Zheng Dao was panicking and so was Fang Ning.

After getting rid of the interfering Sir System, he had a long talk with Anderson.

After the talk, he leaned against the sofa in the lounge dejectedly with his hand on his chin and went deep in thought.

“Sir Warden, these high-level cultivators from the Upper Realm are mainly divided into five categories of gods, saints, deities, Buddhas, and demons. Each has its own leader and has great power. The leader of the gods would be the Ten Congenital Gods, the saints are led by the Three Taoist Saints, the deities have the Unfettered Seven Deities, while there is only one Buddha. There are ten demon lords also known as the ‘Ten Demon Saints’. However, they are definitely not on the same level as the Three Taoist Saints...”

He could not stop thinking about this introduction by Anderson.

Fang Ning used to be someone who was content with filling up his stomach and it was good that his family had no problem financially, he had always believed that even if the sky were full, someone taller than him would be able to hold it up since he was only 168cm and would never need to pick up such a responsibility.

But ever since Sir System took control over him, it seemed like the tallest person in the world, was him...

It was depressing.

Sir System had said that if it were not for the five arhats and Chong Daqing’s transformation, they would have ended up running away.

And this was only facing the Golden Deity from the Upper Realm.

If more formidable opponents descended one by one, how would there be still peace in the future?

He was the tallest person in the world, which meant that he would always be targeted. It would be difficult to lead a free life.

“What are you thinking about again?” Sir System was curious.

“I have nothing to say to you, you’ve never been able to have foresight,” Fang Ning said seriously.

“Yes, I’m sure you are the one with foresight even though most of the time, all you do is play...” Sir System said condescendingly.

“Get out, what I’m doing is called striking a proper balance between work and play,” Fang Ning insisted.

“Yes, the balance being less at work and more at play...” Sir System was unrelenting.

“Do you really want to argue? I’m trying to think about something important,” Fang Ning was losing his temper.

“Urm, I’m not really trying to pick a fight, I’m just worried that overthinking might cause you to be depressed. I can sense that you are panicking to the point of desperation,” Sir System explained quickly.

“Oh, I guess that means I’ve misunderstood you,” Fang Ning did not know what else to say.

“Of course, you did. I really don’t understand what is there for you to feel panic about. If soldiers come, we’ll stop them. If there is a flood, we’ll cover it up with soil. If we can’t do anything, then we’ll just make our escape. It’s a really simple solution, what is there to think so much about?” Sir System questioned.

“Hoho, you really are a straightforward system... But you’re right, overthinking won’t help. I’ll go get some work done,” Fang Ning was dumbfounded at the words.

“Erm, did you feel better because I managed to console you?” Sir System asked hurriedly.

“How heartless do you think I am? Hurry up and report your system’s condition to me in detail,” Fang Ning changed the subject.

“Oh, it looks like I have misunderstood you. I’ll immediately give you the report,” Sir System said excitedly.

According to Sir System’s past experiences, every time the host requested for the report, it meant that he would be working for quite a while. It looked like it was time for him to use his intelligence again...
