The Bald Monk in the City

Chapter 1105 A New Era (Two Updates!)

2119

At last year's Global League Congress, it was an era defined as best and worst by gamer representatives of the virtual world.

Of course, the concept is not what they made of it.

It was created by their grandfathers more than a hundred years ago.

But as defined by the concept, everything is to be expected in this day and age.

For the macroscopic human society, whether it is a longer life, or the power enough to destroy the kingdom of all things;

Whether it is a beauty that does not fade with time, or a body that is not troubled by disease...

In this era, everything can be fully demonstrated.

But when all this sinks down to the individual, it may not be so beautiful.

Compared with the century-old era when magic power had not yet emerged, people's quality of life has obviously been greatly improved.

The development of a different world means that land is no longer a factor that troubles the development of human civilization in the material world.

Although many people are unwilling to leave their hometowns, there are also those who resolutely choose to immigrate.

After all, in order to support and alleviate the ecological pressure of the material world, the Global Alliance has also paid a lot of preferential policies for this.

But maybe, as the ancient religion said, it is hard to get what you want.

Against the backdrop of gradual material affluence, people's expectations are gradually rising.

It is the nature that supports human progress—the insatiable will that makes civilization more remarkable.

But sometimes, an overly colorful world is a cruel pain for a pale individual.

Just like Numu, a life that once had lofty ambitions will gradually calm down in the face of cold reality.

Without a strong bloodline, without the shadow of his father's generation, without catching up with the best era...

This contradiction between dream and reality will lead to great tearing and pain of personal will.

Therefore, in 2077, related virtual online games were born.

But Numm didn't like that stuff, he thought it was a waste of his life.

Of course, his grandfather didn't think so...

Numu's grandfather was an out-and-out material human being, born in the era of the rise of magic particles.

I have also experienced the impact of extraordinary civilizations, and even participated in wars against foreign civilizations during the bloody period.

However, Numu expressed some doubts about this.

After all, his grandfather looked even thinner than he did.

However, Numu did not question his grandfather.

Because his grandfather treated him very well and did not discriminate against him because of his mixed race.

Numu's grandfather is a fanatic of virtual games, and he is always keen to tell the story of how he was in the game at the dinner table.

Regardless of the fact that he is already a centenarian...

Then, because some female players were involved in it, the grandmother who was a little apprehensive would grab her ears and beg for mercy.

It was indeed a happy day.

But later, because of his grandfather's health, and the relatively limited medical treatment in mountainous areas, he moved to the city.

Now, this piece of mountain forest passed down by my great-grandfather is handed over to Numu by my grandfather to take care of it.

In fact, it was supposed to be inherited by Noom's father.

But Numu's father refused, because he had a decent job in the city...

…………

…………

So, you plan to spend your youth in this mountain forest?

Zong's voice is always full of sarcasm.

Of course, Numu felt that it might be because it was abandoned by believers.

At least, my sheep won't betray me...

Numu casually replied that he has figured out how to deal with Zong now.

Of course his heart was filled with certain ambitions, but he couldn't let Zong notice it.

Noum isn't very good at this, though.

But he knows that hiding his true thoughts can never go wrong.

...You are right, but sheep cannot bring you strength...

Zong was silent for a while and then said slowly.

So, can you give me strength?

Numu shook his head:

You can't even be exposed to the sun of this world...

Yes!

Zong's voice suddenly became a little fierce, and it seemed to feel a little angry.

I cannot appear in this world alone, even if I am no longer a god!

I hate to admit it, but I know it!

I am afraid of death, not because I am afraid of death!

Zong's voice became even deeper, as if carrying some kind of cold power.

It paused, and then said in a voice full of hatred:

It's just that I want to watch some guys die in front of me!

I can't bring you power—but I can show you how to gain it, and at the cost of...

At this moment, Numu seemed to be able to feel Zong's gaze.

It was staring at his soul, and then said word by word:

Kill them for me!

Numu didn't know why he thought he could avenge it.

After all, it can be concluded from its words that the enemy is several gods...

But it's still a worthwhile deal, since he doesn't have much of an option.

He is deeply aware of his mediocrity, and will not hesitate for Zong's appearance.

Even if it meant some kind of ominous ending, he would still have no hesitation.

How can the mediocre want to show their will in this era without paying the price?

…………

…………

At the same time, in the depths of the universe that most living beings cannot observe, a huge body is sitting here.

As if sensing some kind of change, suddenly, with a dazzling golden light, two eyes as dazzling as the sun opened...

Divine power?

Sensing the thin scent of divinity coming from the void, Yi Qiu's eyes instantly penetrated the void to look at the material world.

Without any luck, Yi Qiu directly discovered Numu and the divine remnant soul attached to his consciousness.

Yi Qiu could smell a bit of divine power from the divine remnant soul.

But obviously, it is no longer a god.

Yi Qiu slowly looked back, this was not within his scope of handling.

The limit of mortal life, the feedback on life level is level 30.

To break through this level, you must use divine power or find another way.

Of course, compared to level 40, known as the Abyss of All Things, the level limit of level 30 is relatively not that difficult.

After all, mortals of more than 30 levels are not extremely rare in the multiverse.

And level 40 means an existence that is enough to shake many creatures in the multiverse.

It means comparing divinity with a mortal body, and walking shoulder to shoulder with the gods in a mortal body.

Even, some are still above it...

The so-called alternative path is to gradually climb up through the study and practice of the essence of the profession.

This is a process that is destined to be slow and accumulative, a process of continuing to pile on the existing peaks.

For monks, that meant long periods of meditation and penance.

This is an inevitable practice, a process that every great monk must go through.

Of course, it is also the reason why monks are often forgotten by the world.

A hundred years of hard work has allowed Yi Qiu to gradually enter a new stage in his practice on the path of a monk.

His talent in this area is not outstanding.

As we all know, what he showed on the path of a monk lies in another field...

However, with the accumulation of enough time, Yi Qiu was able to be promoted.

And now, it's time to move on to the next stage...
