Chapter 366: The Tragic State of the World Outside the City

Luo Sheng didn’t hesitate to go up.

He also had a similar flying vehicle, but it was far inferior to Yuchi Xueyao.

The flying vehicle Yuchi Xueyao summoned belonged to at least a diamond-level card.

The mount she summoned had no aura exposed, completely invisible. No one in the apartment noticed anything unusual.

Even pedestrians on the street, looking up, couldn’t see the existence of the flying vehicle.

The Card Masters in the city were the same, unable to sense it at all.

This was enough to show how high the level of Yuchi Xueyao’s flying vehicle was. Not only was it invisible, but it could also shield all auras.

“Good morning, Teacher,” Luo Sheng greeted her simply.

“Have you packed everything? I won’t be coming back after I leave,” Yuchi Xueyao inquired.

Especially seeing that Luo Sheng’s hands were empty, with no luggage at all. Even Xu Yourong and Xu Xiaoqin, whom he brought along, also had no luggage. Yuchi Xueyao thought they hadn’t packed at all.

Luo Sheng shook his head, “Everything has been packed up.”

Yuchi Xueyao didn’t say much, just nodded, “Alright then.”

Then everyone entered the flying vehicle.

Yuchi Xueyao controlled the flying vehicle, flying directly towards Yuncheng.

At this time, Luo Sheng witnessed the formidable nature of this flying vehicle. It was completely silent while flying, and didn’t produce any loud noise outside.

It was like a hovercraft.

No one in Pingcheng noticed that there was a flying vehicle passing over their heads.

Moreover, this flying vehicle wasn’t slow, flying quickly at a speed close to Mach 3.

Through the glass window, the scenes outside kept flashing by.

During this process, Luo Sheng also discovered through the glass window that the world outside was worse than imagined.

A large number of otherworld dimensions occupied vast areas of territory. There were dozens of large otherworld dimensions and hundreds of small otherworld dimensions between almost every city.

Interspersed among them were some towns.

Luo Sheng also saw lush green fields and heavy industrial areas, of course, they were heavily protected and surrounded by high walls, with many turrets and armed forces on the walls.

Like satellite cities of big cities.

Providing supplies to big cities and receiving protection from them.

Of course, Luo Sheng saw more abandoned villages and towns, with piles of white bones inside the cities, as if corpses had been dumped in the wilderness.

Many once prosperous towns now only had ruins left, with no living creatures surviving.

The scene was quite lamentable.

Luo Sheng guessed that if Pingcheng couldn’t resist when the otherworld dimensions invaded, its final fate would be like the ruins below.

Forgotten in history.

“Is this your first time leaving Pingcheng?” Yuchi Xueyao asked.

Luo Sheng nodded honestly.

Yuchi Xueyao glanced at him and said, “You’ll get used to it. We’ve been at war with the otherworld dimensions for a long time, there will always be sacrifices.”

Luo Sheng suddenly asked, “But with such a large area occupied by otherworld dimensions, won’t our living space become even less?”

“You’re right, our living space is decreasing,” Yuchi Xueyao didn’t make any excuses, directly admitting it.

Luo Sheng asked again, “Then why don’t we unite and take back these lost lands? With the Alliance’s abilities, it should be very simple.”

Yuchi Xueyao suddenly chuckled, feeling that Luo Sheng seemed a bit naive.

So she said, “Don’t think too much. Human territory will only get smaller and smaller. After all, when you take back these territories, how to divide the benefits becomes a difficult problem. There are so many families, groups, and consortiums.”

With her hint, Luo Sheng roughly understood what she meant.

It was about problems in distribution.

If everyone couldn’t reach a satisfactory answer, then it’s better for no one to occupy, thus, large amounts of land would be occupied by otherworld dimensions.

Luo Sheng quickly thought of another question: “But isn’t this all controlled by the Alliance? Why doesn’t the Alliance take action? As long as these are taken back, all the benefits would belong to the Alliance.”

“The Alliance needs to use a lot of resources. One family alone can indeed occupy, but can’t hold for long. People are necessary, and a large population is controlled by the families, as are the Card Masters,” Yuchi Xueyao explained simply.

Xu Yourong also added, “The Card Alliance has too many places to manage, and has taken in a large number of civilian Card Masters, so there aren’t enough resources to allocate, resulting in the generally low level of Card Masters under them.

But the families are different. They use a large amount of resources on the top, and even the remaining resources can significantly improve their clan members.

So, the level of Card Masters in families is generally higher than civilian Card Masters, and so is their combat power.”

After she finished, Yuchi Xueyao looked at her and nodded, “She’s right.”

She was also curious about Xu Yourong, “Looks like you know quite a bit about the families.”

“I was originally from the Xu family in Yuncheng,” Xu Yourong explained simply, but didn’t say too much.

“I see,” Yuchi Xueyao had a look of sudden realization, “No wonder you know so much about these things. Indeed, no one from the Xu family is easy to deal with.”

Xu Yourong looked at her warily.

After all, her surname was also Xu.

Yuchi Xueyao laughed, “Don’t look at me like that. Luckily you’ve seen the light, so I won’t do anything to you.”

Seeing Xu Yourong’s strange expression, Luo Sheng immediately changed the subject, “Human living space is constantly decreasing, why do Evil Card Masters still help these otherworld dimensions? Aren’t they afraid that when all humans are extinct, they’ll follow suit?”

Yuchi Xueyao drove the flying vehicle while explaining nonchalantly, “Because they’ve found a way to open up new worlds. Even if this planet is destroyed, they’ll have their own living space.”

Hearing this shocking news, Luo Sheng said incredulously, “Can they really open up new worlds?”

Yuchi Xueyao replied without turning her head, “Yes, just like the otherworld dimensions. They use special cards to open passages and enter a new world, an otherworld dimension very suitable for human survival.”

Luo Sheng suddenly thought of the black market.

This was quite similar to what Yuchi Xueyao said.

Luo Sheng asked again, “So it’s similar to the black market?”

“Looks like you’re quite quick-witted, inferring from one instance to another so quickly,” Yuchi Xueyao first praised briefly, then continued to explain, “What you said is still a bit off. The black market is just a by-product of entering new worlds.

Once, for humans to have more space for development, the Alliance’s top echelon launched the New World Path Plan project. The black market was a product of that period.

The black market is both a domain and a new space, but it needs certain resources to maintain stability, and the space is small, unable to accommodate too many people, let alone create resources, so it was quickly eliminated.

Later, someone in the research project suddenly betrayed and turned to the Evil Card Masters, so later the Evil Card Masters became fearless, even daring to openly establish countries.”

Speaking of this, Yuchi Xueyao seemed a bit angry.

If it weren’t for the destruction by the Evil Card Masters, human living space wouldn’t have decreased so drastically, now only being able to huddle in cities.

Luo Sheng also fell into deep thought.

There must have been some irreconcilable contradictions within the research project.

At this moment, Yuchi Xueyao said, “Alright, hold on tight, we’re about to cross into an otherworld dimension.”

Luo Sheng’s expression became strange at first.

Then the flying vehicle began to shake.

A huge storm vortex appeared in front of them, transmitting very dangerous signals.

Even though Luo Sheng was a gold-level Card Master, he still felt the danger, and his spiritual jade kept alerting him.

Then the flying vehicle’s red light came on.

Without a word, Yuchi Xueyao pushed the engine to its maximum, and a violent jet stream shot out from the rear of the flying vehicle.

Luo Sheng and Xu Yourong could feel the strong push against their backs.

The scenery outside kept changing.

It was full of invading creatures, and the eyes of many monsters were fixated on the flying vehicle.

The flying vehicle was stirred up by the airflow and became visible.

The invisibility shield disappeared.

A large number of gold-level creatures quickly caught up with Yuchi Xueyao’s flying vehicle.

Yuchi Xueyao just glanced at them indifferently.

She activated the flying vehicle’s protective shield.

Then, Luo Sheng saw that the large number of creatures attacking the flying vehicle were directly repelled and died.
