Mo Wanrou's face was pale and she licked her dry lips:

"Ren Jie...what is all this going on? It's not what we think, is it?"

If Ren Jie had just said this unilaterally, everyone might not believe it, but Sui Feng said so, so...

I saw Ren Jie standing up from the city wall, staring at Ning Chuan with his eyes:

"Just as you think, all of this has fallen into an illusion from the moment we were woken up in the camp! None of this really happened."

"It can also be said that... it really happened, but it was just a piece of history that happened 180 years ago, a time that was recorded."

"And we do not belong to this time, but from the future 180 years later. We are outsiders who were forcibly pulled into this time."

"Ye City was destroyed 180 years ago. Do you still remember the ruins we saw? The ruins of the Old World City? Where is the former Ye City."

"If we are pulled into this period of time, we will only die while defending the city and be buried together with Yecheng. No matter what, we will not survive until dawn."

Ren Jie's words directly drove the students' minds to a halt.

So all of this really happened in 180?

Are we just being pulled into this past time?

Lu Chen swallowed:

"You...how do you know this? This is obviously your first experience, so you can be so sure?"

Ren Jie sneered: "Ha~ Is it the first time? This is a cycle that cannot be broken. We have been trapped in this day and cycled 82 times. This is the 83rd time."

"Every time we die, the fantasy world will restart and become more complete. We will have all our memories erased, and the cycle will start over again, and we will die again and again."

"No one can detect the truth. They will only sink deeper and deeper, eventually exhausting all their energy and suffering a mental breakdown. Don't you find that you are mentally exhausted?"

"You don't remember, but I remember that the real answer was dug out bit by bit after I died 82 times. I tried every method I could, and the day has been ruined by me."

Everyone looked at Ren Jie with horrified expressions, if everyone really kept repeating this day and had their memories erased every time.

How did Ren Jie survive?

Hiss~

I saw Ren Jie continue:

"Do you still remember the strange stories about Nankey Forest? Nankeyi's dream? Ha~ This is the so-called Nankeyi's dream..."

"If this illusion world is a dream, then I

More than 3,000 of us have all had a common dream, a dream that only belongs to the past..."

The students all had goosebumps all over their bodies.

Depend on!

Are you really being visited by ghost stories?

If Ren Jie hadn't pointed it out, how long would everyone have been circulating in this fantasy world?

Jiang Jiuli said with a pretty face:

"Then...how are you sure that it's Ningchuan's problem? Why is there this cycle, and why is this period of time?"

Ren Jie looked at Ningchuan:

"Because every time I die and fall into darkness, I see a fleeting candlelight, and Ningchuan's demon is the candle demon."

"I don't know much about the specific abilities of this demon, but the candlelight has the ability to protect and defend. In addition, the candlelight should also have the ability to record a certain period of time."

"Otherwise Li Lin wouldn't have told Ning Chuan to remember it, and Ling Tianzhi wouldn't have said to please witness it. The defense forces didn't want to die silently, so they made a request to Ning Chuan. I'll also ask for this.

Li Lin has confirmed it with Ling Tianzhi."

"And Ningchuan did last until the end and was the last of the defense forces to die. He witnessed with his own eyes the destruction of Ye City and the destruction of the defense forces."

At this moment, everyone's eyes fell on Ning Chuan. Ning Chuan just stared at Ren Jie with red eyes.

But Ren Jie did not stop, but continued:

"If anyone has the ability to record all this time, then there is only one person who has this ability, and that is Ning Chuan..."

"As for why it is this time and why it is an endless cycle, as far as I know, demons feed on the power of emotions. If the candle demon wants to exist, it needs a sufficient amount of emotional power."

"That's why we were pulled into this illusionary world. After experiencing this period of time, we were allowed to follow the destruction of Ye City and experience life and death again and again, and a large amount of emotional power was extracted for it to absorb."

"There is no more convenient method than this, right? And this illusion world will also input information into our minds and change our perceptions. For example, the existence of the demonic tide in Yecheng and Jicheng makes us feel that all this is real

And it is reasonable to automatically ignore the doubts, so that there will be no doubt about the authenticity of the matter."

Mo Wanrou swallowed, her scalp numb:

"So is this the reason why explorers disappear in Nanke Forest every once in a while?"

"because

Are they also being pulled into the fantasy world to experience the cycle?"

Ren Jie said firmly: "That's it. Now we are missing to the outside world, so we can't contact the college and can't receive any news from the outside world."

"In fact, Yecheng has been destroyed, and all 300,000 people were buried in Mokou. All members of the Gale Force were killed 180 years ago. Everyone died here, including Ningchuan himself."

"And perhaps the only one who survived was the candle demon, which has carried this recorded time with it until today. Am I right?"

At this moment, the whole place was as silent as death. The students stared at everything in front of them with wide eyes. These defense forces were living in front of them.

Are they all dead? Are these the heroic souls of the forefathers of the Defense Forces 180 years ago?

And those people...

The students' eyes were extremely complicated. This scene was so real. These defense forces were all flesh and blood people. They were not just NPCs, but even the civilians.

This afternoon, the students even helped relocate the people, bragging and making friends with the National Defense Forces...

But now I tell you that these are all people who have been dead for 180 years... ??

How can this keep people from falling apart?

All the defense forces looked at their hands in shock...

Are we...already dead?

Is everything’s outcome already determined?

At this moment, the smile on Sui Feng's face disappeared, and he looked back at Ning Chuan:

"Is everything he said...all true? Everyone has died long ago...We are just a period of time...recorded by the candle demon..."

Ning Chuan's eyes were blood red, his expression almost collapsed, and he stared at Ren Jie:

"Why...why do you have to say it and let all this continue?"

"I admit... everything you said is right, but you are wrong about one thing. I am not just feeding the candle demon purely for the power of emotions."

"I just want you to understand the despair we have experienced, understand? Do you really understand?"

"More than 10,000 of our Gale Force troops defended Yecheng and tried our best to protect the 300,000 people in Yecheng. Just because of that death order, all the brothers risked their lives."

"We could have left! We could have ignored this!"

Ren Jie rarely fell silent, just listening to Ning Chuan's words quietly.

>

Ning Chuan gritted his teeth: "But is all this really meaningful? All of us carried it to the end, but we couldn't protect those 300,000 people."

"I watched them being bitten to death by the demons one by one, but I could do nothing. I witnessed everyone leaving. I prayed to gods and demons. I knelt on the ground and begged for everything I could."

"But until the end, I couldn't wait for the sky fire to light up! I couldn't wait for the support to come! I looked at the night sky with expectation countless times, but all I got in response was disappointment."

"We have nothing left to protect, so what's the point of putting our lives here? No one remembers us, not the 300,000 people in Yecheng. We were submerged in the long river of history and no one mentions us."

"Tell me! More than 10,000 brothers risked their lives here. What did they do in the end? Tell me!"

Ren Jie took a deep breath, and there seemed to be fire burning in his eyes:

"Did the sky fire really not light up?"

"I tell you! The more than 10,000 Gale Force soldiers who died in Yecheng were the sky fire that lit up in the long night!"

As soon as these words came out, Ning Chuan was stunned and looked at Ren Jie blankly. All the eyes of the defense forces were focused on Ren Jie.

Ren Jie's eyes were red:

"For you, we come from the future, from 180 years later."

"I can tell you clearly that Jincheng has been built and the sparks have been ignited! On the fertile soil of Great Xia, thirty-three spark cities have stood firm, supporting the living space of the human race."

"There are already sparks all over the earth. We have two spiritual springs, Daxia Defense Force, Dragon Horn, Si Yao Hall, Demon Suppression Division, Guild of Stars, there are too many. The fire of human civilization has been rekindled and is becoming more and more popular."

The fever gets worse."

"Although we have lost the sky, the ocean, and even the moon, we still have to face threats from the three tribes of spirits, demons, and demonic disasters, but what can we do?"

"The human race has emerged from its cocoon and become a butterfly. We have established a firm foothold in this world in the new era. We already have our own right to speak."

The more Ren Jie talks about it, the more excited he becomes. Having gone through the cycle 83 times, he is undoubtedly the one who has the deepest impression.

"This is what you protect, and this is the meaning of your sacrifice here."

"In today's prosperous age of Great Xia, the foundation of the human race was built on the shoulders of our ancestors. In the darkest moment of human civilization, you were the fire from the sky that lit up in the long night!"
