Chapter 2945 The Protagonist Who Always Regrets
Seeing the dilapidated city, Lynn felt frustrated again.
I did something wrong again.
He couldn't help but feel despair.
He meant well, so why does he always do the wrong thing?
Wenren Sheng immediately smiled.
And at this time.
The devilish grandfather has come again.
He said to Lynn, "Actually, it's not your fault. Your intentions were good, but you just executed them poorly."
"Because the people here have no choice, they can only endure the lord's exploitation and oppression."
"I'll tell you a way to get rid of this situation permanently."
"I have a crystal ball here."
"This crystal ball leads to a beautiful paradise, a dreamlike heaven."
"You can let the people choose to enter this place in their dreams."
"Once they get here, they will find that they can live well without the king's rule."
"In this way, as long as people have a place to run, the original rulers will have to change and will no longer be able to continue to oppress the people."
"So that's it, I understand."
"So what should I do?"
"Take this crystal ball." With that, the demon grandfather took out a crystal ball and handed it to Lynn.
"You can use the spells from the Book of Demons, such as mental link, on the crystal ball."
"You can connect to everyone's dreams."
"Everyone's dreams will feature the same you."
"You can ask everyone who wants to leave their hometown if they want to enter the paradise of their dreams."
As he spoke, the demon grandfather reached out and touched the crystal ball.
A beautiful village appears above.
Chicken, duck, fish, and meat—you name it, they have it.
Rural streams and lush forests.
"As long as they agree, they will automatically enter the crystal ball and live a better life."
Lynn was overjoyed as his devilish grandfather spoke.
Wenren Sheng shook his head when he saw this.
This guy was completely deceived by this demon.
He lacked the trauma of evil growing up and placed too much faith in this demonic grandfather.
He had no idea that this person was actually a treacherous bastard.
This crystal ball does indeed lead to a space.
But that space was hell.
What good place could there be for demons? That paradise is nothing but an illusion.
It's a hellish place; once you go in, you'll experience a living hell.
But he said nothing.
Lynn took the crystal ball and used the Book of Demons and the Mental Link.
That night, everyone in the city had the same dream.
In his dream, he said to everyone:
Do you want to leave here and go to heaven?
He then revealed the contents of the crystal ball.
It's fair to say that in the city, 90% of people would say, "I do."
One of them was a little girl selling matches.
She was huddled in a corner, dreaming, barefoot, and exclaimed happily, "I knew my grandma had finally come to take me! I'm going to heaven!"
She was so happy, her face, red from the cold, was full of anticipation.
Seeing this scene, even Wenren Sheng, who was usually indifferent to everything, couldn't help but sigh.
That's really pitiful.
The other person touched his compassionate heart.
In his drowsy state, his thoughts drifted to random points.
Thus, the little match girl became the only one to break free.
The other person really went to heaven with her grandmother.
This paradise is naturally the world of the little match girl.
The other party will be the protagonist of this fairy tale world.
From then on, they enjoyed the protagonist's halo, living a wonderful life filled with kindness and expectation, and then repeating this cycle endlessly.
that's it.
Lynn led one person after another there.
The next morning.
The whole city was quiet.
After a long time, around noon, a few people who looked like butlers finally came out.
They were puzzled.
None of these shops are open today.
Although it's not usually open very often, it will open sooner or later.
Today, almost none of them were open.
"What the hell happened?"
The housekeepers were very surprised.
After that, they started asking around.
They discovered that things had gotten out of hand!
That means everyone has disappeared!
Especially those servants who allowed themselves to be beaten and scolded.
Coachman, coachman, servant...
They all disappeared one by one.
The nobleman is still sleeping.
They suddenly remembered the dream they had yesterday.
There was a mysterious person who, in their dreams, led them into a paradise.
The housekeepers thought the other party was a fraud, just like those people in the church, so they didn't agree.
Is it really true now?
Did those people really enter heaven?
The housekeepers immediately regretted their actions.
They also saw it in their dreams, in that paradise where they ate white bread and salted roasted meat every day.
In their imagination, this is already the best life.
Just as the ancients said, it is a world flowing with milk and honey.
In their eyes, milk and honey are the best things.
Humans cannot imagine things they have never seen before.
And so, Lynn recruited people city by city.
Soon, the seven kings were shocked.
They received reports from below that the population of their fiefdoms was decreasing one by one.
Previously, the incident only occurred in one city.
These things are happening in almost every city now.
The population is declining dramatically every day.
The first group to decrease are beggars and homeless people.
The next groups to decrease were prostitutes, dockworkers, and serfs.
Then there are artisans, small vendors, ordinary farmers...
And so, social classes plummeted like a pyramid.
"What should I do?"
Seven high school kings, when they realize something is wrong, find most of the city almost deserted.
"This is how to do?"
"If there's no one left in our city, who will pay the taxes?"
……
The remaining people immediately felt that their lives were starting to get better.
They did feel inconvenienced at first.
For example, we can't get haircuts or buy salt anymore.
But then they found that life was getting better.
why?
Because they were no longer under the command of soldiers, they could go hunting in the wild.
You can now secretly cultivate the fields left behind by others.
Because the nobles didn't have enough manpower to oversee so many fields.
And now, there is still a lot of harvest in the fields.
Most people who previously had no land or firewood can now go to forest areas to cut wood and hunt.
The lords could no longer control them.
Natural resources suddenly became incredibly abundant.
In the past, a person could only own a maximum of five mu of land, and that was for farming other people's land.
Now one person can own 500 mu of land.
With such a standard of living, one can imagine what it's like.
Of course, it's no longer possible to cultivate it meticulously.
All they had to do was sow the seeds and go home to sleep.
Autumn is here, all we need to do is go to the fields and tend to the crops.
As long as you carefully manage two or three acres of land, the rest is up to fate.
They can also plant fruit trees.
Suddenly, life became exceptionally good. Some people asked, "What will we do without doctors?"
Haha, medieval doctors, their absence actually increased lifespan.
Their most useful role is as barbers, used for amputations and bandaging wounds.
In the Middle Ages, being well-fed and clothed and able to fight off illness on your own was far more effective than seeing a doctor.
Several kings who died from bloodletting can attest to this.
They were extremely excited as they looked at the crops covering the fields.
"This is wonderful, this is something that has never happened before."
The absence of knights, butlers, and tax collectors greatly excited them.
They no longer have to worry about those dreadful tax collectors.
Apart from the capital, all other places were plunged into a terrible state.
There was no sign of human habitation.
There were no soldiers, no farmers.
However, some of the people who were unwilling to leave finally realized something was wrong after enjoying a few good months.
That is, wild beasts and monsters gradually began to run rampant.
Especially those monsters; you have to understand that this world is not a peaceful medieval period.
In the peaceful Middle Ages, a village of a few hundred people could withstand the threat of almost all wild animals.
Unless it's a pack of tigers coming down the mountain.
This world is inhabited by monsters left behind by those demon kings.
In the past, when there were many people, there were always some knights who would fight against them.
With more people, we can afford to support knights.
With knights, we can fight against those monsters.
But now we simply can't afford to support the knights.
Many knights disappeared, leaving only a few behind.
But it's impossible to deal with that many monsters.
Without servants, the knight couldn't even put on his armor.
Soon, these monsters began to march towards the city.
At first, those who finally got to eat white bread and roast meat were forced to abandon their homes.
They abandoned the food and salt they had found.
They could only go to the rest of the capital.
They abandoned their homes and businesses, taking with them gold and jewels.
Some of the clever ones, however, brought food, cured meat, and salt.
They ran towards the capital.
Only in the capital city did some people still gather.
Of course, the servants now serving are all the second sons of nobles and court guards.
They come to do those odd jobs.
And these people are also on the run.
The remaining population was less than 10,000.
You should know that the original kingdom had tens of millions of people!
Whenever they feel unhappy with real life, they choose to enter that dream paradise.
And so the world's population continues to decrease.
The once bustling capital city became a town, and then a village.
The seven high school kings never imagined that the world would turn out like this.
"Damn it. If everyone runs away, who will take care of us?"
"Damn it, why don't these guys try their best? Why are they shirking their responsibilities?"
"Damn it, they're shirking their duty to serve the king!"
"This is absolutely infuriating!"
The seven kings were furious.
At this moment, Lynn finally saw the anger of the Seven Kings.
He felt very comfortable.
"You oppressed the people, and now look what's happened—the people have all run away. What are you going to do now?"
He couldn't help but laugh.
He was very excited.
These bastards are all exploiting the people.
They completely disregard the lives of ordinary people.
And now they've all been cheated.
Now, the people who have entered this dream paradise are all very excited.
The people who remained were also very happy.
They were no longer afraid of the king, nor of the tax collectors.
They would run away immediately if anyone dared to make things difficult for them.
Now it is the king who is asking them to stay.
We've also started to respect them.
He smiled at everyone, gave them benefits and all sorts of advantages.
We were begging them to stay.
When Lynn saw this, he immediately felt that his grandfather had given him a good suggestion.
He made a good move.
Now he's not in a hurry to assassinate the seven kings.
He was going to give the seven kings a good hard time.
He was unaware that his mindset had changed without him realizing it.
As for the so-called resurrection of that nobleman, he seems to have already forgotten about it.
Because he felt that he had led the people to paradise.
Even if that nobleman came back to life, he could not bring such a life to the common people.
He was far more important than that nobleman.
Because he wants to bring even more people into heaven.
Wenren Sheng shook his head.
If I become rich and powerful, I will not forget you.
That's how people are.
After Chen Sheng made his promise, he became successful and the first thing he did was kill the fellow villagers who came to ask for an official position.
Of course, this was also because the villagers kept nagging, which damaged Chen Sheng's dignity.
Subsequently, Chen Sheng completely lost the support of the people.
If you can even kill your own fellow villagers, then what are we?
His fellow villagers may have some problems, but in any case, they should not be killed before the world is settled.
After the country was unified, many people killed their fellow villagers.
……
this day.
Lynn finally reduced the seven kingdoms to only seven kings, a few nobles, and knights.
These people don't want to go to that dream paradise.
Because they are already living very well in the real world.
They weren't even sure what their dream paradise would look like.
The seven kings were furious.
They finally found out.
Lynn was the one who did this.
They then went to find Lynn themselves.
Then he said to him:
"You fool, you've taken everyone to that dream paradise."
How do you know that heaven is good?
"That paradise might just be a hell of demons."
Lynn laughed and said, "Even so, it's still much better than your real hell."
"At least there people can have real enjoyment."
And at this time.
The high school girl mage used a True Sight.
It shattered the illusion created by the crystal ball.
Then Lynn saw what he called his dream paradise, which turned out to be a hell.
Just as they said, once people went inside, they were tied up and had their flesh cut off every day...
Then it grows back and is eaten by the demon.
Each and every one of them is enduring immense pain.
They seemed to be filled with regret.
Lynn was taken aback by what he saw.
He started to regret it again.
Goodness, this is a protagonist who regrets his actions.
But then the evil grandfather reappeared.
"The enemy is lying to you."
"Can you still trust what the enemy says?"
"Have you forgotten? The first time you tried to assassinate the king, you trusted the enemy and spared his life, and then he took the opportunity to kill you."
Upon hearing this, Lynn immediately understood.
"Yes, I shouldn't have believed what these enemies said."
"These enemies are all the same; you are the demons."
