Chapter 67: The Settlement

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The Sacred Contract Nation was the name of the native nation in the third circular world.

In their past history, there were many large countries and small countries everywhere. It was common for different countries to conquer each other.

Although the people didn’t live in dire straits, they were valiant. Combat arts was a must-have course for every household.

However, all of this changed when the people of a certain country suddenly awakened their psionic potential.

It did not take long for these one-man-army psionic users to unify all the countries and change everyone’s way of life through their powerful psionic power.

The development of science and technology quickly came to a halt because psionic power was simply too convenient.

If psionic users could harvest crops with a flick of their fingers, what was the point of machines?

Therefore, almost everyone was studying how to let themselves possess psionic power and how to use psionic power to make themselves stronger.

Presently, they had created a prosperous magic empire with the help of psionic energy and were close to expanding their territory to the distant starry sky.

That era was known as the Mysterious Era in the history of the Sacred Contract Nation.

However, their collapse also came overnight.

After a certain day, everyone discovered that their connection with psionic power was almost cut off, and the once all-powerful users of psionic power became weaker than ordinary people overnight.

Even if there were some gifted individuals who could barely use their psionic powers under such circumstances, they would be greatly weakened and would not be as powerful as before.

Panicked psionic users began to search for psionic powers, and the gears of technology began to slowly turn.

After a long time, although psionic powers had declined, there were still some chosen ones who could use psionic powers.

In their pursuit, they believed that the psionic potential of the entire race had been contained, resulting in the severing of the psionic connection.

Therefore, they decided to use a great ritual to stimulate everyone’s potential and return this era of stinky steel to the former Mysterious Era.

Today was the 50th anniversary of the ceremony.

“Your Majesty, the preparations for the Prayer Day are about to begin. The people are awaiting your speech.”

The emperor of the Sacred Contract Nation, who was handling official business, stopped his work when he heard that. With a light movement of his finger, the table became clean and tidy under the effect of a mysterious power.

As the most supreme person, the emperor naturally had powerful psionic power. It was better to say that it was the only way for him to sit on this position.

“How’s the result of this year’s Psionic Ability Potential Test?”

“Your Majesty, the number of new people with psionic ability potential this year has increased by 12.8% compared to last year. It is the highest in the past 50 years!”

Hearing that, the emperor smiled in satisfaction.

The former emperor had held a ceremony that could increase the overall psionic ability potential. Although the former emperor himself had passed away not long after the ceremony, the current emperor thought he himself might be able to become a great man whose name would be remembered forever.

Perhaps in the historical records of later generations, he would be called the founder of the second Mysterious Era.

Imagining such great honor made the emperor’s heart flutter, so much so that he couldn’t wait to hear the cheers of the people on the Prayer Day.

Thus, he left the palace and headed toward the square where the people were.

At this moment, Li Wenyuan was frowning as he looked at the few natives who had suddenly appeared on the ground of the circular world below the research spaceship. Their faces were filled with uncontrollable panic and fear.

They seemed to have used some kind of psionic power to transfer themselves to their present location, which was exactly where the control center of the circular world had mysteriously disappeared.

In addition, they also brought many native babies and children who were still swaddled. They looked like human traffickers.

The research spaceship in the sky naturally attracted their attention. However, to Li Wenyuan’s surprise, the first reaction of those natives when they saw him was not panic, but relief.

Then, the leader among them said, “You must be the creator’s messenger, right?”

“I didn’t expect to see you, the prophesied savior, before the ‘settlement’ arrives.”

The language of those natives was quickly translated, and Li Wenyuan understood what they were saying.

Their expressions turned from panic and fear to calmness, as if it was worthwhile to see the research spaceship.

“Unfortunately, we don’t have much time left. We can’t tell you too much. In order to pursue supreme power, the arrogant emperor signed a contract with an existence in the void for 50 years. He thought that he and the people could resolve the threat of that existence, but little did he know that everyone had entered the countdown of destruction at that moment. We can only try our best to save these unmarked successors, even if we are denounced as heretics. Now that we’ve seen you, it means that our efforts have not been in vain. Thank you for your kindness.” After saying that, those natives simply sat on the ground, as if they were waiting for something to arrive.

Li Wenyuan was confused by their words. He was about to ask something when he suddenly detected a huge energy fluctuation.

The fluctuation appeared so abruptly that the “settlement” had already started by the time it was detected.

The circular world began to tremble violently. Such a huge “galaxy miracle” seemed to be overwhelmed by some mysterious force.

The connection structure of the circular world instantly detected the abnormality and cut off the connection to the outside, leaving it in an isolated state.

Meanwhile, cracks appeared on the ground of the circular world as it trembled more and more violently, revealing the planet’s soil within. The cracks grew deeper and deeper, looking like cracks that led to the abyss.

The steel structure that was used to support the earth also showed a large-scale distortion. Even if there was no sound in the vacuum, Li Wenyuan seemed to hear the sad cry of metal breaking.

It was hard to imagine that the seemingly indestructible and miraculous circular world had fallen into irreversible destruction, but it had happened at this moment.

Li Wenyuan reacted instantly and asked Gray Wind to save the natives who were closest to him.

However, what followed was an extremely terrifying scene.

The natives who were still talking to him had already turned into dried corpses, and as the ground trembled, they turned into dust.

They seemed to have been marked by something long ago. When the time came, it would take back everything they had.

Luckily, those native infants and children seemed to retain their life forms.

Gray Wind brought them all into Li Wenyuan’s research spaceship and quickly left the circular world that was about to collapse.

However, after leaving the atmosphere of the planet in the circular world, the universe was even more unbelievable.

A huge “ring” had appeared above the circular world.

The “ring” seemed to be a reality yet an illusion, but it was constantly “absorbing” something from the collapsed circular world.

Thick purple torrents connected the “ring” and the circular world, forming a psionic storm around the “ring”.

Vaguely, Li Wenyuan saw the hideous faces of the natives in the psionic storm.

“That is…” He looked at this scene in shock, and then someone explained it to him.

“That’s the End of Reincarnation.” The one who spoke was a native infant who had just been rescued.

The infant closed his eyes, but it was as if he had seen everything. The infant did not open his mouth, and his voice echoed in the research spaceship.

He seemed to be a true chosen one, a person blessed by psionic energy, born with wisdom that ordinary people could not match.

“‘He’ is an ancient existence in the void realm. Everyone who signs a contract with ‘Him’ must be prepared to bear the ‘settlement’ price. ‘He’ will bestow powerful strength and infinite wisdom to the contractor, but when the time is up, ‘He’ will take back ‘His’ gift and collect interest. Everything about this civilization is the interest ‘He’ collects. Only the lucky ones who are not marked can escape. And this “Distorted Consciousness” that has absorbed all the knowledge, power, body, and wisdom of civilization will turn from emerge from the void realm into reality, replacing the ‘End of Reincarnation’ in this universe…” the native chosen one explained what the enormous “ring” that was flickering with psionic storms was. However, after hearing no response for a long time, he opened one of his eyes and saw something that stunned him.

Countless battleships surrounded the huge “ring” known as “Distorted Consciousness”. Light beams of various colors hit its body, and explosions occurred one after another. It felt like the “ring” was about to shatter.

Li Wenyuan looked at the destroyed circular world with a pained expression. Although the circular world connection structure had been disconnected in time and the collapse of this circular world did not affect the other three circular worlds, Li Wenyuan could not forgive those who caused the explosion for no reason.

“The End of Reincarnation? Distorted Consciousness? How many fleets do they

have that they dare to blow up my circular world?”
