Chapter 744: A World that Makes Humans Despair
When Mika first came to this world, all he saw were desolate ruins.
Loneliness and death, this was Mika's first impression of this world.
Standing on the hillside in the wilderness and looking into the distance, similar scenes were everywhere.
Looking up at the sky, it was bloody.
Along with the blood-like sky, blue ash drifted with the breeze, as if it was snowing.
But when the snow-like ash fell on Mika's face, Mika's eyes revealed a look of realization.
He had recognized this world.
"No Game Life, no, it should be No Game Life Zero!"
Mika smiled bitterly.
He smiled because he determined where he was in a very short time.
As for why it was a bitter smile?
This is because this world is too desperate.
No Game Life, it is a masterpiece that Mika remembers deeply.
In that story, the brother and sister, the boy Sora and the girl Shiro, who are known as "Blank" and are legendary in the gaming world, were favored by the god of games in another world.
Thus, he traveled to a world where everything was decided by games.
When he first watched that anime, Mika was shocked.
Especially when the brother and sister challenged the powerful Flügel, the hydrogen bomb that appeared first and the planetary explosion at the end made Mika extremely excited.
That scene has long become a famous scene and is deeply engraved in Mika's heart.
So, when Mika saw the scorching scorched earth, the bloody sky, and the "black ash" that was enough to burn the skin.
All of this was guiding Mika.
Let Mika determine the true appearance of this world.
That was six thousand years before the beginning of the main story of No Game No Life, and before the end of the war of gods that affected the entire planet.
No Game No Life: Zero!
"What a disgusting feeling, this world."
Athena, who came with Mika, also saw everything around her.
Based on the surrounding environment, she quickly made a judgment.
This is a world with gods.
And this world is on the verge of death in the war between these gods.
Such a scene made Athena recall her holy war with Hades. Isn't it because she didn't want to see such a world that she had been resisting Hades' attack?
Although this world is not shrouded by the underworld.
But what is the difference between this place and the underworld with the breath of death everywhere?
"No, even the underworld is not as cruel as here!"
Slowly stretching out her palm, the blue 'black ash' fell on her palm.
Although there was no change, Athena had completely understood the harm of this thing.
Although it had no effect on her and Micah beside her.
But once this ash falls on the skin of ordinary people, it can quickly burn the skin.
If it falls into the eyes of ordinary people, it will inevitably cause blindness.
The most terrifying thing is that this thing is lighter than snow, and ordinary people will inhale it into their bodies with their breathing if they are not careful.
In this environment, even high-level adventurers are in danger.
Perhaps the skin of those high-level adventurers can resist the burning of this ash, but if it is inhaled into the body, I am afraid there is only one way to die.
After all, human internal organs are extremely fragile.
Even though the internal organs of high-level adventurers are tougher than those of ordinary people, they are only tough to a certain extent.
Their internal organs cannot completely resist this burning.
Only the first-level adventurers at the hero level can completely ignore this dust.
"Are there still humans living in this world?"
"I'm afraid even if there are, the number is extremely rare."
"They can only survive in a corner."
This is not that Athena looks down on humans, but this world is too cruel for humans.
Even if there is a system of cultivation in this world.
But no matter what kind of world it is, the majority of humans are ordinary people.
But in such an environment, there is no living environment for ordinary people.
Even if humans can survive, it is impossible for them to live in large groups. Such an environment is not suitable for large-scale group living.
In this case, it is difficult for strong people to appear among humans.
After learning knowledge from multiple worlds, Athena can be sure that the average level of cultivation of humans is not high.
But with their terrifying number and reproductive capacity, outstanding talents far exceeding the average level can always appear one after another.
Even occasionally, a few ultimate geniuses can be born.
Aren't the Golden Saints like this?
But these are all based on the huge number of humans and their strong fertility.
In this environment, perhaps the average level of humans is higher, but the birth of top geniuses may be difficult.
But the birth of any top genius can greatly improve the survival ability of humans.
After all, the living space of these humans is too small.
But all this is based on the premise that there are still humans in this world.
But Athena is willing to believe that the humans in this world have not yet become extinct.
After some thinking, Athena shook her head helplessly, and then looked at Micah, intending to see Micah's reaction.
Then she saw Micah looking down.
Following Mika's line of sight, Athena was stunned for a moment.
The next moment, the corners of her mouth rose slightly.
"Sure enough, no matter what world or era, humans are so strong!"
Standing on the hillside and looking down, Mika clearly saw three figures searching for something in a ruin.
It was the wreckage of an aerial battleship.
Obviously, they were not searching for food or something like that.
But for 'information'.
This means that they are not just living for the sake of living.
"It's you, Rick!"
After confirming this world, Mika began to look for the location of the wreckage of the aerial battleship.
After all, according to past experience, Mika, who had just arrived in another world, must appear near the protagonist.
He will also appear at the beginning of the plot.
And the beginning of No Game No Life Zero is a memory of the past.
So Mika needs to make sure that he is at the normal time point of No Game No Life Zero or at the time point in the past.
But now Mika can be sure.
The time point he is at now is the normal time point.
That is, the protagonist Riku has grown up and is about to meet the Ex-Machina, Hughie. After learning the cause and end conditions of the war from her, he finally decides to end the war.
When Mika watched that plot, his blood was boiling.
Although the ending was very sad.
Although they won, they could not get the Star Cup.
But the final result was undoubtedly a victory for the surviving humans.
And it was a great victory that had never been seen before and will never be seen again.
