"Impossible." Jian Yulei was totally unconvinced and retorted, "Without your permission, the Tower of Babel cannot disappear out of thin air."

Uranus shrugged. In fact, the appearance of the magic tower had nothing to do with him. However, if, as he said, the disappearance of the Tower of Babel was the work of heaven, then he could not hide it from him as he held the ownership of the Tower of Babel. This was normal logic.

Here, let's just follow Jian Yulei's statement...

Thinking of this, Uranus said calmly: "Having said that, I just 'did not refute'."

"Why don't you refute?" Jian Yulei asked loudly.

"Why do you want to refute?" Uranus was puzzled. He asked back: "...Isn't it interesting to be able to participate in the adventure?"

"That's not what I'm talking about!"

"What is that?" Uranus sneered and asked, "But after spending less than a thousand years in the underworld, you don't think you really fell in love with the children underground, do you? Jian Yulei?"

"Do you want to recall what the gods did when they were in heaven?"

"Do you want to recall why the children appeared in the underworld?"

Jian Yulei's body stiffened slightly.

This is something the gods choose not to talk about.

A long, long time ago, humans also lived in heaven.

The gods of the Dicuo world are so lame that they are even unable to kill powerful people of the same level, let alone create a reincarnation system.

The resurrection of the gods in the Dicuo world and the reincarnation mechanism of guiding the souls of life on the surface are essentially the innate rules of the world.

It can even be said that this is a system.

The only difference is that after the death of a god, if the strength of his soul is high enough, he will not lose himself within the rules of this system and will gradually be resurrected. However, with the soul strength of other lives, reincarnation is real reincarnation.

The existence of gods in the Dicuo world does not depend on humans, but the birth of gods depends on other intelligent life forms.

To give an example, this is similar to the star spirits in the box garden. The growth of the star spirits has nothing to do with humans and can rely solely on mass accumulation, but for the star spirits to awaken themselves, they need sufficient support from human faith.

The gods of the world of Dicuo are based on certain laws at the core of the heavens. With the emergence and development of other intelligent life forms, they constantly analyze the world and define various concepts, and gods are born.

That is why gods are all in human form.

The first gods that were born encountered wars between various races at the very beginning.

The newly born gods at that time were very curious about everything in the world, and except for a very small number of gods with special duties, most of the gods had a good relationship with the lives that offered offerings to them.

Because of the prayers of various races, wars broke out between gods.

But the gods of this world rely on the laws. As long as the gods gain will through the prayers of other intelligent life forms, they will not need faith to maintain their existence and can be resurrected by relying on heaven.

No matter how fierce the battle is, the gods will not die. The only casualties are the intelligent life forms behind the gods.

In the end, with almost no disturbance, it led to the destruction of almost all races.

Not all gods want to go to this point, but there are always gods who are killed, and then even the populations they protect are exterminated.

Gods don’t care about being killed. Gods can be resurrected, but the populations they protect cannot.

During the war at that time, there were gods who wanted to reconcile, thinking that no one would have a good outcome if the war continued like this, but it was of no use as the gods at that time were young and vigorous.

Eventually, humans came to the underworld.

There were originally no humans in the underworld. Not only humans, but also many races including elves and dwarves did not exist at all in the beginning.

According to the definition of 'world', humans and other races are outsiders to the lower world.

Therefore, the dungeon constantly breeds monsters, and the monsters' instinct is to kill other intelligent life forms.

From a world perspective, the heavenly realm naturally gave rise to many races, and the beliefs provided by these many races allowed the origin of the heavenly realm to give birth to the gods.

The lower world was dead silent at that time, and the beginning of this world was just around the corner.

Because many intelligent lives came to the underworld, the underworld's self-protection mechanism was triggered, and dungeons were born in the underworld, which gave birth to monsters and eliminated invaders.

From an essential perspective, dungeons and gods are "living entities" at the same level.

However, it is irresponsible to talk about strength without considering quantity. In terms of quality, both the heaven and the underworld are "worlds", but the heaven that can give birth to the gods is much stronger than the underworld in terms of quantity.

At the beginning, all kinds of lives in the underworld had bad luck. Thanks to the help of some gods, under the protection of the gods, various races could barely survive in the underworld.

As all the gods turned their attention to the underworld, they forcibly suppressed the dungeon and used the underworld as the gods' playground to conduct clan games.

Because of this, whenever the dungeon senses the power of the gods, it will riot.

If we have to talk about reason, dungeons and monsters represent the underworld. The various races living on the surface today, as well as the gods who will come to the underworld in the future, are all invaders that should be eliminated.

The most obvious feature is that after a monster dies, its soul will be absorbed by the dungeon, recycled and bred into new monsters.

After the adventurer's death, his soul will be collected by the soul reincarnation system of heaven and return to heaven thousands of miles away.

This is not only evidence that adventurers of races such as humans and elves are not underworld creatures, but also the difference in "strength" between the underworld and the heavens.

Even if an adventurer dies in the dungeon, the heaven can still lead the adventurer's soul back to heaven.

Except for rare cases where the soul reincarnation system of heaven occasionally operates abnormally, the dungeon can intercept some of the adventurers' souls and then give these souls life in the dungeon's way - by breeding monsters.

There also appeared a very small number of monsters and heretics who had the will of intelligent life forms and were capable of communication.

This is the essence of the dungeon. To some extent, the dungeon is also a god, at least the life level is the same as that of the gods.

But after all, one originated from heaven and the other originated from the underworld. They are at the same level of life but in different forms.

The dungeon might be much weaker, unable to move and with weak life characteristics. If the gods wanted to, they could simply blow up the dungeon and turn the underworld into a sea of ​​fire - but the only thing is that the gods cannot completely kill the dungeon.

Just as gods cannot outright kill other gods.

If the gods destroy the existing dungeons, it won’t take long for new dungeons to appear in the underworld.

Or rather, the mother nest.

Dungeons are not for adventurers to explore. In essence, they are weapons of war that continuously give birth to monsters, command them to emerge to the surface, and eliminate foreign invading life.

As long as life forms originating from the heavens still live in the lower world, dungeons will continue to appear and monsters will continue to be generated. Having said that, with the power of the gods in the heavens, it is not difficult to seal/destroy a dungeon as it appears.

But the gods' activities are for fun, not to work for humans.

After comprehensive consideration, the gods and the underworld signed a contract, using the ability to defeat the black dragon and reach the bottom of the dungeon as the criteria for judging victory or defeat.

The gods cannot use their own power. If the lives of other races can overcome the trials and reach the bottom of the dungeon within this period of time, the underworld will allow these races to live on the surface and no longer produce monsters, and will eliminate these races as invaders.

If the lives of other races cannot pass the trial, then the gods cannot help these races and let the monsters in the dungeon cleanse the surface.

The Promise between the Gods and the Dungeon - this is a trial game that gambles on the wishes of other lives on the surface and the underworld.

Therefore, when facing Jian Yulei's questioning, Uranus appeared very tough.

What were you doing so early?

You are great, you are noble, now you can point at my nose and question me?

Where were you when the gods were fighting in the upper realm and other races could not survive?

Where were you when the contract was signed with the dungeon, with the survival of life in the underworld as the stakes?

Uranus said that he would not accept any doubts. Was it his fault that the gods had become so rotten?

If the gods had been more restrained at the beginning, they would not have tried to transfer other races to the underworld.

Even if we are targeted by the underworld, even if we face the test of monsters in the underworld, it is still safer than being affected by a star-level attack in the heavenly realm.

Not to mention the contract signed with the dungeon.

If even 30% of the gods were concerned about the lives of the underworld, the gods would not sign a contract with the underworld.

Contract yarn?

The gods cannot completely destroy the underworld, but they can temporarily destroy the form of the dungeon. However, with the support of the underworld, the dungeon will continue to be born.

But if even one tenth of the gods were drawn out, all resistance in the lower world could be stopped, and the surface of the earth could be turned into a paradise where children could live in peace.

Uranus sneered and asked Jian Yulei, "Children have come to this point today. If they don't pass the black dragon's test, they will perish. You don't think you are innocent, do you?"

Having said that, he actually had no intention of going so far as to destroy the children.

Because the contract was only verbal.

——With the gods of this world having such difficulty in teaching people to become stronger, there is no way to expect the gods to sign a contract based on their origins. Both parties to the contract have no way of going back on their word.

The power is not accurate enough, and the contracts signed by the gods cannot be linked to one's own soul.

The contract between the gods and the dungeon is essentially an agreement reached after mutual compromise, which can be reneged on at any time.

The gods went back on their word, and the dungeon was powerless to stop them. However, the dungeon could not directly resist the gods, but it could make the gods unable to play, and the dungeon simply started to give up, not even generating monsters.

For the gods, this is like cutting off the fuel supply. The gods live for fun. If the dungeon does not cooperate, the gods will be depressed to death.

But for the gods who have no intention of experiencing this heroic game, the contract with the dungeon is meaningless, and they don’t care about violating the agreement at all.

Dungeons can prevent monsters from spawning, allowing races such as humans and elves to live peacefully on the ground.

The dungeon has enough levels, but the power is too weak.

What Uranus was really worried about was never the dungeon, but the reactions of other gods when his true purpose was revealed.

He appears to care about humans, but before long, some gods will want to kill some humans for fun.

After all, he is strong enough, and in the heavens, other gods simply cannot find a chance to embarrass him.

For him and his collaborators, what mattered to them was never the deadline agreed upon with the dungeon, but how many companions he could coax and trick into standing on his side, even if only temporarily, before the deadline arrived.

After all, even Bell used means like this to seduce the goddess.

And most importantly, to what extent has the technology that was researched in advance to make the gods sleep forever been developed?

Chapter 17 Potential

After the incident at the Tower of Babel, when the gods held a meeting, the union was also organizing people to go to the underground city.

After this incident, adventurers were forbidden from exploring the dungeon until the situation stabilized, and adventurers already in the dungeon were told to evacuate immediately.

Bell Craney was one of them.
