It had to be said that the girl in front of them was indeed a beauty. Unlike the others, she had a very special temperament. To put it nicely, it could be called a fairy. Of course, to put it simply, it could also be called an otherworldly beauty.
"You're so beautiful."
Tears couldn't help but sigh as he stared at the girl in front of him. Hearing Tears' words, the girl smiled and lowered her head.
"It's an honor to receive your praise. My name is Scarface. Nice to meet you."
"Scarface?"
"Is that your name?"
Hearing this rather peculiar name, all of the young ladies were taken aback, while the woman nodded.
"Yes, that's my current name."
"That means you had another name before?"
Tears Zutian stared at Scarface curiously. But before that, Fangzheng told her to look at Rei, who was standing beside Tears and staring at her.
How could it be so easy for a protagonist to have a harem?
"Yes, before this, people called me the Demon Killer."
"… Eh?"
Seeing the scar-faced man say this with an elegant smile on his face, the girls were all stunned.
"And Grim Reaper, Inhuman, Scarface, Maria, Stonehead, Grim Reaper, Scarface …"
"Alright, that's enough."
Fangzheng waved his hand, and the girl who was introducing herself immediately stopped. At this moment, the girls hiding behind Fangzheng looked at each other and whispered with tears in their eyes.
"Why do I feel like she doesn't speak like a human. She sounds a bit like a robot …"
"I feel the same way. What about Big Sister?"
"I don't feel any electric waves from her, but she's really strange."
Hearing the whispers of the girls behind him, Fangzheng coughed and walked forward.
"We're outsiders who have just arrived here. If you don't mind, can you walk with us for a while? By the way, I have some things to ask you. "
"Of course."
Facing Fangzheng's question, Scarface still had a smile on her face as if she didn't mind. In fact, she didn't mind at all.
Soon, Fangzheng learned about the current situation of this world from Scarface.
But this was not consistent with the contents of the book.
In fact, whether there were gods in this world had always been a question. Gods had never appeared in front of humans, nor would they just disappear after saying "I screwed up, I screwed up". In fact, in the beginning, no one noticed the arrival of that day. No, people didn't even know which day it was.
Generally speaking, if the gods wanted to give an oracle or change the world, there would always be some movement, such as a lightning strike, a volcano eruption, or an earthquake. One must know that even the secretary of the village would have a loudspeaker at the entrance of the village to shout. In the end, nothing happened. It was as if one day, the gods suddenly thought of something and thought, "Ah, alright, I'll fulfill your wish then." Then, unknowingly, humans ….. fulfilled their wish.
They didn't want to die.
This was a characteristic of all life. No life longed for death, and the same was naturally true for humans. So, the "god" fulfilled their wish. No one would die.
No, to be exact, even if they died, they would continue to move and exist.
Of course, in the beginning, the countries and governments of this world hoped to keep this secret a secret, but of course, that was impossible. No one would die. This was not just an excuse. Even if they were torn to shreds and cremated, they would continue to exist.
Under such circumstances, the people on this land had to choose to coexist with the dead. But soon, the situation changed.
First of all, more and more people would die. More importantly, when you died, you wouldn't have to worry about death. Instead, you could obtain "eternal" life. Many people couldn't resist this temptation and chose to die. Then, of course … society and the system collapsed.
The dead could not be killed, so there was no way to suppress or subdue them. The living, on the other hand, would enter the ranks of the dead after being killed. In the end, the number of dead would increase, and the number of living would decrease.
Not only that, there was a very serious problem.
That was, immortality itself was not perfect.
In the beginning, the dead would indeed retain their original bodies. However, as time passed, their flesh would gradually rot, and their minds would be eroded. In the end, they would turn into monsters with only the desire to live. In other words, the end of these dead people was to become zombies that could not be killed.
Gradually, both the dead and the living realized that "immortality" was not a blessing, but more like a curse. So, they prayed again, longing for death.
And this time, the "Gods" had fulfilled their wishes and created the "Tomb Keeper" to complete this mission.
In the end, the world became what it was today.
What was more serious was that after that, no new life was born. The flow of time in this world became extremely slow. It could even be said that it had stopped. The methods that people used to distinguish the four seasons and time were completely useless. No one even knew how many days or years had passed since then.
"This is too strange."
After listening to Scar Face's explanation, the girls were dumbfounded. Misaka Mikoto quickly expressed her opinion.
"If everyone doesn't like this state, why don't we just make a wish and let the world return to its original state?"
"Because we can't do it."
Fangzheng shrugged and said.
"Can't do it?"
"That's right. Although we're talking about fulfilling wishes, everyone's wishes are different. Some people want world peace, some want the world to be destroyed, some want longevity, and some just want a successful confession. It's obvious that if this so-called god could fulfill any wish of humans, the world would have long been in chaos. Therefore, his way of fulfilling wishes is definitely through the majority system. "
"Majority system?"
"Look, let's say there are ten people with different wishes. What if there are a hundred people, a thousand people, or ten thousand people? What if there are ten thousand people who have a common wish? World destruction and world peace are definitely not the majority. Other wishes that involve personal benefits will definitely not be approved by others. Therefore, the only wish left is the survival instinct of life, which is the wish to 'live'. Moreover … "
At this point, Fangzheng paused for a moment. He was sure that the program had definitely malfunctioned. Currently, Fangzheng just did not know what the malfunction was.
However, it did not matter.
As long as they found Ostesta, the rest would not be a problem.
Fangzheng also asked Scar Face if there was a city called Ostesta. To his surprise, Scar Face was planning to go there as well. Therefore, Fangzheng invited Scar Face to go together with him. Not only that, Scar Face also found an abandoned school bus for Fangzheng and the others. Although it was rusted and broken, for Fangzheng who had the ability to manipulate time, he could easily turn it into a brand new one.
Soon enough, the school bus, which had been restored to its original form, once again played its role, bringing the group of people and speeding towards Ostesta.
The journey was relatively peaceful. They only encountered a group of road hooligans, but it did not take Fangzheng long to get rid of them. On the contrary, the situation in the bus was quite interesting, especially Zutian Tears. Now, Fangzheng was very sure that Zutian Tears had the aura of a protagonist. She had been curiously circling around Scar Face ever since she got on the bus, completely unaware of the resentful look in Rei's eyes behind her. It gave Fangzheng the impression that Zutian Tears was looking for a new lover after devouring his girlfriend.
Now, all Fangzheng wanted to do was wait and see when Zuo Tianlei's harem would catch fire … After all, it was better for him to die than for him. Besides, wasn't it a daily occurrence for a harem to catch fire?
Finally, on the afternoon of the third day, they finally saw the legendary city of death.
It was Ostesta.
"What's wrong? Miss Scar Face? "
Zutian Tears was a little puzzled when she saw Scar Face sitting beside her. Scar Face had been fidgeting since a while ago, as if something was unbearable.
"I can sense that there are dead people buried here," Scar Face answered softly.
At the same time, he reached out his hand to touch the shovel on his knee.
"I want to bury them."
"Huh? How many? "
"At least … more than a million people."
"Huh!?"
Hearing this, the others also screamed and looked at Scar Face in surprise.
"A million … dead people?"
"That's right."
Scar Face nodded. Fangzheng stretched out his hand and pointed outside the window.
"Look outside."
Upon hearing Fangzheng's words, the girls came to the car window and looked out. Following that, they saw many things that resembled tombs on both sides of the road. And all the tombs had a shovel stuck in them.
"What's this …?"
"They're probably the gravekeepers who came here to bury the dead. They should have all been killed."
"That … that's too dangerous, Miss Scar Face."
Looking at the graves of the gravekeepers on both sides of the road, Tears couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart. Scar Face nodded.
"Of course, but I'm a gravekeeper. This is my duty."
"Mr. Fangzheng?"
Seeing that she couldn't convince Scar Face, Tears turned to Fangzheng.
"What do you think?"
"Although I'm not a gravekeeper, I also have to maintain the order and order of the world."
Fangzheng held the steering wheel with one hand and stared coldly at the city in the distance.
"The dead should obediently stay underground, not wander on the surface. Hmm … maybe I should take out my list of firewood."
1.2 million dead people. It must be very fragrant when burned.
