Chapter 928: Real World

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

This system announcement shook the whole world. Now, even idiots knew that the world was going to be destroyed; those rumors were actually all true. There was now a countdown of 30 days for the real world being destroyed, and the entire world started to panic, not knowing what to do.

The world, which had been on the verge of collapse, finally spun out of control. Even the governments of countries did not know how to keep things under control. Money in the real world completely lost value, because if the real world was going to be destroyed, what was the point of that money? They were just bits of paper and metal.

People started to use gold, silver, and jewels to make trades, which was quite common. In any time, gold, silver, and other jewels did not lose too much value; right now, it was still uncertain if these things could be brought into the Heaven Awaken World.

If they could not be brought into the Heaven Awaken World, having many of those things would be useless. Moreover, the Heaven Awaken World had its own currency, so those things would once again devalue.

Bartering was now the most common method of trading; such an advanced and developed world had suddenly regressed to such a state.

Most importantly, no one went to work – since the world was going to be destroyed, what was the point of going to work? Everyone stopped working, resulting in all production ceasing. Transport systems collapsed, and the prices of goods became even more chaotic.

Even the military was unable to stop people from pillaging, as there were simply too many cities. There were not enough soldiers, and the real world fell into utter chaos. There was no more morality or order in the world.

This was because when people had nothing to eat, they would do anything; some even went so far as to eat other people. A household could only stock so much food, and it would be quite difficult to last for a month. Now that all financial systems had collapsed, the only way for people to obtain food was by pillaging and stealing.

The military could only suppress some people and could not stop everyone. Some people said that in an apocalypse, everyone would be united, but that was incredibly naïve. When everyone was satisfied and fulfilled, they were all willing to talk things out and not use force. However, once resources ran out, only those who were strong would survive, and those who were weak would either die or steal from those weaker than them.

If everyone just stayed calm and continued to follow all the systems in place, things would not be so chaotic. Now, most people had lost their reasoning; in order to gain benefits, no one cared about anyone else.

After all, who wouldn’t act like this? No one wanted to starve, the real world was being destroyed, and all rules lost their effect.

All of this chaos came from the nature of people. Normally, with the law in place, they were too afraid to do anything, but without the law, how could humans maintain all of these systems? It was simply impossible.

No one could stop such a thing, as no one wanted to starve to death. As such, they could only commit all sorts of evils so as not to starve.

The number of injuries and casualties from all this chaos continuously increased, and the various countries allocated their military to maintain order in small areas. Most of this chaos was caused by ordinary people, and the higher-class people were not affected so much.

After all, the higher-class people knew that the world was going to be destroyed a long time ago, so they had been prepared. They naturally would not fall into chaos, and they continued to eat gourmet food and drink expensive wines. Zhao Fu was one of such people.

Zhao Fu did not care too much about the real world being destroyed, and in response to Wu Qingniang’s words, Zhao Fu decided to tell her his true identity. After all, his identity would be revealed after the real world was destroyed anyways. It would be worse for her to find out then, so he might as well tell her himself.

“Qingniang, because of the situation, I have to apologize about lying to you about something,” Zhao Fu said apologetically with a sincere tone.

Wu Qingniang lightly harrumphed, “I knew there was something you were hiding from me; why are you telling me about it now? What is it? Don’t tell me it’s about those things with other women; I already know about that. When I have time, I’ll teach you a lesson, you flirtatious fellow.”

Zhao Fu awkwardly laughed before replying, “It’s not about that; let’s meet in the Heaven Awaken World. I’ll tell you everything there.”

Wu Qingniang felt quite confused; she had never thought that it would be such a grave matter. However, seeing that Zhao Fu was being so serious, Wu Qingniang thought about it and decided to agree.

Because the Zhou Dynasty was at the south of the Midland Continent, Zhao Fu decided to meet her on the southern side. Wu Qingniang brought 20 of her personal guard; they were all heroic female soldiers, and they waited for Zhao Fu at a hidden location.

After returning to the Heaven Awaken World, Zhao Fu first told this matter to a dignified, graceful, and domineering woman. After all, this matter had to do with her, and with her there, things would be easier to resolve.

That beautiful woman was slightly angry and lightly hit Zhao Fu a few times as she said, “I never thought that you wouldn’t even let off my Legatee; you’re so bad!”

Zhao Fu dryly laughed and said a bit more, and in the end, the beautiful woman agreed to go with Zhao Fu to resolve this matter.

“Your Majesty, just who are you waiting for? It has been over two hours; why hasn’t that person come yet? Such disrespect to make you wait for so long!”

Seeing that her Majesty had been waiting for so long, one of the female soldiers felt quite angry. No one had ever treated her Majesty like this before.

Wu Qingniang lightly smiled as she replied, “He most likely got held up; he should be here soon. Even though he’s not a Legatee, he’s much more important than ordinary Nation Legatees. In actuality, in front of him, my identity is quite ordinary. Later, make sure you’re careful with your words.”

Hearing this, the female soldier felt quite shocked and said, “Your Majesty, just who is he to be your equal despite not being a Legatee? This subordinate simply cannot imagine such a person.”

Wu Qingniang turned, looked at the female soldier, and said while smiling, “Perhaps you don’t know about him, but you definitely know about Great Qin’s Legatee, who has been shaking the whole world. He’s Great Qin’s Legatee’s representative in the real world and controls all authority in the Ying family. His status within Great Qin is extremely high.”

Hearing Great Qin’s Legatee’s name, the female soldier’s face became quite pale; everyone knew just how terrifying he was. Hearing that the person Wu Qingniang was waiting for was Great Qin’s Legatee’s representative, the female soldier did not have anything else to say.
