The Tragic Kingdom of the Sinking Era, the Kingdom of 【Decay】, Rosna

(Super large cup today!)

One warrior, two assassins, one pastor—this is the temporary lineup for this trial.

Reasonably speaking, this configuration is indeed good, especially considering that Da Yi's position is more like a free agent, who can seamlessly switch between assassin and "warrior," making this lineup look even better.

But the only drawback is that the teammates have too many thoughts and might break up halfway.

However, Cheng Shi was never a person who dwelled on the future. He kept observing the postures of the three people and said:

"The architectural style here is different from the styles of previous civilization eras, but the interior decoration has shadows of the early civilization. I didn't recognize what place this is. I don't know if you big shots can enlighten me?"

Hearing this, Da Yi's eyebrows drooped, and he began to look at the floor, a perfect look of a poor student.

Jiang Chi smiled slightly, turned his head stiffly, looked at a pitch-black painting on the wall that didn't know what it was, and praised: "The art of this period is... unique, hmm, unique."

Only Poison smiled slightly and said firmly, leaning on the handrail of the stairs:

"This is Rosna of the Sinking Era."

Sinking Era?

Rosna?

Cheng Shi frowned, his eyes full of confusion. He hadn't even heard of this place.

Trials of the Sinking Era are pitifully few. Nine out of ten players don't know much about the history of 【Sinking】, and the historical fragments known by the remaining one are mostly from underground explorations in the Civilization Era.

So when Poison said the name "Rosna," none of the other three people in the field could pick up the conversation.

Clearly, all three of them were among the nine "poor students."

However, poor grades don't mean no curiosity. Jiang Chi gave up being an artist after hearing Poison's words and asked with interest:

"Rosna... what kind of place is it?"

"The kingdom of 【Decay】. In limited history, people are more willing to call it the Kingdom of Tragedy."

"Kingdom of Tragedy?"

"Yes."

Poison moved. Her fingers slid slowly along the handrail, her gaze lingering on the decorations of the attic, explaining while walking downstairs:

"The people here all believe in 【Decay】. They believe that people are born with sin, and harming oneself is a way to remove sin.

Only by constantly harming oneself can one obtain purification and obtain His forgiveness. So everyone here spends their whole life striving to become a sinless, clean person, and uses this to approach Him.

But in this trend of repeated self-harm, this country gradually lost its population and combat power, like a rusted antique abandoned by the era, slowly sinking into the sea of history."

The three frowned at the same time, not quite understanding what Poison meant.

Jiang Chi hesitated for a moment and asked again:

"They believe in 【Decay】, offer to 【Decay】, and even turn themselves into decay. This piety will only become stronger in the faith of 【Decay】. How could they... lose combat power?"

"This is also a point I once doubted. But not long ago, I happened to find the answer.

Because their offerings...

don't seem to have moved the Benefactor they worship.

【Decay】 He... is probably a god without any compassion!

In other words, the perspectives of gods and mortals are perhaps fundamentally different. The piety in the eyes of mortals seems worthless in Their eyes. He may have once watched this country, but He didn't bestow any power of 【Decay】 on this country.

And the Rosna people only felt that their piety was not enough to move the Benefactor, so their offerings became more and more crazy...

In the end, this 【Decay】 country completely 'decayed.' They declared their exit from the historical stage with the most magnificent offering.

However, 【Decay】 still didn't comment on this.

How about it, isn't this tragic enough?"

Poison's footsteps didn't stop, clearly heading to a lower floor. Cheng Shi looked at the other two with a strange atmosphere and followed down. The group of people arrived at the first floor of this residential house and finally saw the owners of this house.

It was a middle-aged couple who were pale and extremely thin, and their three children. However, at this moment, these five people had been knocked out by Jiang Chi and thrown to the ground.

Poison walked in front of the couple, gently tore open their clothes, and turned them over. This male owner was clearly stronger than his wife, his flesh and blood were fuller, and his skin was more delicate.

Conversely, this female owner, her shriveled body could only be said to be slightly better than skin and bones, but without any beauty.

As for the three children, each was weaker than the other, and their pale faces looked like they were starving.

From this, it can be seen that Poison was right just now. Self-harm had caused this empire to deviate from its track. When the hope of the future was dying, where was there hope in the future?

Of course, Poison's purpose was not to let them see these, but to let everyone see the suffering suffered by the Rosna people, and that so-called purification.

Following her guidance, everyone only saw that the backs of the couple were densely covered with countless scars.

Piercing, slashing, whipping, branding...

These scars were not overlapping or chaotic, but arranged neatly and orderly. They didn't look like they were abused by others, but rather like they were showing off some "military exploits."

Poison sneered, somewhat disdainfully:

"This is the end of believing in 【Decay】. The rulers refused to give up power, so they could only recast new faith to seize everything they wanted. But how can this way of self-decay compare to embracing desire?

People are originally a collection of desires. Whether it is indulgence or restraint, it is part of desire.

Changing faith is just to pursue other unknown desires. Where are there saints in this world?

Since everyone is not a saint, why pretend to be a saint?

Little do they know that pretending to be a saint is the greatest desire in this universe!

Little pastor, don't you think?"

?

Why are you cueing me?

Teachers call on poor students in class, I'm not a poor student.

Cheng Shi curled his lips and didn't make a sound, but he heard it. Poison wasn't explaining the present, but promoting her 【Filthy Fall】 path.

However, compared to her peers, her style of clarifying thoughts could be considered very un-【Filthy Fall】. After all, her peers were better at interpreting faith with actions.

Da Yi changed from rough to a listener, and Cheng Shi didn't want to talk to Poison, so only Jiang Chi was left to be a straight man in the field.

Jiang Chi seemed to have heard some history about the change of faith, and nodded with interest:

"I once heard that the reason 【Decay】 would watch the Continent of Hope was because after the prevalence of 【Filthy Fall】 faith, a group of people appeared who could no longer embrace desire for various reasons, especially physical reasons.

And these people wanted to continue to sit and enjoy power, but could not continue to offer to Him. So the decaying and weak they began to seek another power anchor, and thus attracted the gaze of 【Decay】.

Looking at it this way, Poison-miss supports this point of view?"

"Facts don't need support, 【Decay】 came this way.

This is also the reason why Rosna, this place, is called the Kingdom of Tragedy. Heh, when a country dedicates all its energy, vitality, and life force to Him, who can stop the destruction of this country?

【Decay】 is different from 【Filthy Fall】. Its history of prevalence is very short. After all, His will will not let you continue to be full of vitality.

The Rosna Kingdom had millions of believers when it was founded, but after less than a hundred years, this country known as the 【Decay】 God Kingdom declined to a few cities.

They did prove their piety with a magnificent decay, but the problem is... people are dead, what is piety for?"

It seems to make some sense, but why is Poison so familiar with this place, just because she belongs to 【Sinking】?

Cheng Shi was a bit puzzled, and Jiang Chi directly asked this question.

Poison smiled slightly, her hands behind her back like a good student waiting for praise, tilted her head and explained:

"【Sinking】 or something, I'm not interested. Why am I so familiar with this place? Didn't you guess it?

Naturally, it's to find that lost... 【Gift of Scars】!

After learning that Zhen Yi ate that conjugate whisper fruit I was most interested in, I could only set my sights on the 【Gift of Scars】. Everything you just heard is the history I pieced together in one trial after another.

Can such sincerity be exchanged for the frankness of everyone?"

Looking at the charming Poison, everyone had different expressions.

This 【Filthy Fall】 God-Chosen was a person very good at "friendly communication," but unfortunately, there was no one who cherished flowers in the field. Just as she finished speaking, the other three suddenly opened their mouths in tacit understanding:

"I'm just pretending to be elegant, but I'm actually extremely vulgar. I'm still more interested in the whereabouts of the 【Gift of Scars】."

"Damn it, don't be wordy, just say where the thing is!"

"How to be frank, take it off here?"

"......?"

The warrior and assassin were stunned, but the other assassin's eyes lit up.

Because she saw the pastor glowing! ===== CHAPTER 481 =====
