They couldn't believe it in the beginning, but they couldn't refute it in the end. And now, the cruel truth seemed to be unfolding before their eyes little by little.
All the emperors had a terrible look on their faces.
They had thought of all kinds of possibilities. They had even gathered the wise ones and spent a long time making all kinds of plans against the Sage.
But now, all their plans were in vain, and they seemed to be quite ridiculous.
They had never imagined that they would receive such news.
The world was about to be destroyed!
"We'll go and verify it." The Qin Emperor's voice sounded very low. He didn't even have the patience to maintain his image. He looked at Shen Yi in front of him, trembling slightly. "So, what else does the Sage want to tell us?"
"Go and verify it." Shen Yi looked at them. "It won't take long. Telling you is just the first step. Everyone has the right to know about this catastrophe that will sweep across the world."
Nobody argued with him.
If it were in a normal world, the news of the end of the world would be kept highly confidential.
It was because it would bring chaos to the order.
But the order of this world was based on a series of rules with the privilege level as the core. And people couldn't really decide their own death.
So it might bring fear, but there was no need to worry that it would bring chaos.
Some emperors seemed to want to say something, but they left in the end.
They had lost their usual calmness, and their minds were in a mess. It might be better for them to leave for a while and digest what they had learned today.
However, when they walked out of the garden and were about to go their separate ways.
The Qin Emperor, who was walking in the front, stopped.
"Everyone." He turned around and looked at those emperors. "Is there anything you want to say?"
Silence. More silence.
These emperors were at the top of the social class in this world, and they all had distinctive personalities.
Some were calm, some were domineering, and some were gentle.
But now, they all had the same reaction — a gloomy expression, and a dim look in their eyes.
"If so, I do have something to say." The Qin Emperor was the first to speak. "First of all, there is no need to be too scared. We are not young anymore, and there is a possibility that we will return to nature. Even if that happens, we can only blame ourselves for being unlucky. And I think the first thing we should do is to verify the truth of what the Sage said."
"What if it's true?" Someone suddenly raised his head and looked at him. His voice was slightly trembling. "To be honest, I've already noticed some strange things. I've failed to cast a skill a few times … It's like the response of the rules. Everything has become very slow."
This emperor was a famous battle maniac among the emperors.
He loved to challenge the Trial of God.
Therefore, he had this feeling a long time ago. However, he only felt that there was something wrong with him and did not sound in the direction of the whole world.
But now, after he said it, another emperor immediately chimed in.
"So you feel that way too?"
"Me too. I thought there was something wrong with me."
"My first time was three years ago, but I've only appeared twice in total.
"Me too …"
As one person after another spoke, the emperors gradually fell silent. Their expressions were ugly as they remained silent.
What they didn't know was that …
This is called a program stalling.
As emperors, most of their skills were extremely powerful and had a wide range of effects. When placed in the game, their calculations would be greatly increased.
Therefore, they were the first to feel the aging of the skill program.
Perhaps it was because the program had not been cleaned and optimized for a long time, or perhaps it was because the hardware in the real world had begun to malfunction.
In short, this world was now like an electronic product that had been used for a long time. All kinds of problems had begun to appear.
And this was further evidence of what Shen Yi had said.
"So! Are we just going to wait for death? " Qin Shihuang suddenly raised his voice. He clenched his fists, and the veins on his forehead stood out one by one. "Everyone, think about our empire, our people, our culture. This is no longer a question of whether we can survive or not. It's a question of whether everyone can survive or not … In short, I won't stay here and wait for death!"
After leaving such a sentence, his patience seemed to have reached its limit.
He swung his sleeves and turned around without looking back.
Among the emperors, there were indeed people who only cared about their own enjoyment. However, there were also people who felt responsible, especially in the Qin Kingdom, which had a unique culture and had been passed down for a long time.
After Qin Shihuang left, the rest of the people looked at each other. In the end, no one spoke anymore. They turned around and left one by one.
What they didn't know was …
Not far away, a little king, Ye Feng, heard all of this.
This was probably the riskiest thing he had done in his life. As long as an emperor found him, there was a high probability that he would be killed easily.
But now, he didn't have the slightest joy of being able to keep his privilege level.
Instead, he felt cold all over.
This powerful body of a king didn't bring him any warmth. It was a kind of coldness that seemed to freeze his soul.
What did he hear?
The question of whether everyone could survive or not!
He wanted to convince himself that this sentence was not an exaggeration or some kind of metaphor.
However, the gloomy and even fearful expressions of those arrogant emperors were enough to explain a lot of things!
Ye Feng even felt that his legs were a little weak.
Then, he took firm steps and walked into the garden.
He didn't care about losing his rank or offending the Sage anymore.
Now, he just wanted to know, and he had to know.
Just what kind of problem was it that caused everyone to be unable to continue living?
On the way in, he didn't encounter any obstacles. After all, this was just a palace, and there were no maids or guards around.
So, Ye Feng soon saw Shen Yi.
Mu Xuefei and the two emperors he had seen before were also there.
These four people were all sitting in chairs. A kind of oppressive, silent silence surrounded them.
"Lord Sage!" Ye Feng shouted loudly. Then, he knelt on the ground with a plop and kowtowed heavily. "Please tell me, what will happen to us?"
Shen Yi looked at him. After a while, he slowly asked, "What can you do if you know?"
