Chapter 719 Death Ascension
Why did the body become an existence that needs to be filled into the morgue?
What does this have to do with the ascension ceremony?
Liu Sheng finally found the answer from the bodies of these colleagues who were shrouded in the morgue on the second floor of the minus.
...
At the same time, Liu Sheng returned to the office.
This time, she returned to the executive office.
When she walked in with her legs swinging, no one raised any objection to her that "you don't belong here".
Someone came and patted her on the shoulder, "How is it going, is it going well?"
She controlled her head and pointed a little.
"It's great. Once a mission is done, you can have a large dedication value to be offered to the God of Light!" the other party said enviously, "If you work harder, you will soon reach the standard of ascension!"
"After all, it's the happiest person in the corpse." Another person came over and interrupted, "You don't have to work so hard like us, you can ascend directly. Have you sent two more to the house today?"
Liu Sheng nodded again in control.
"It's so good..." The man immediately looked envious.
Hearing this, Liu Sheng paused for a moment and suddenly said, "Then why don't you... join the corpse?"
The voice was hoarse and stuck, like the sound made by being pinched with the vocal cords.
"How did your voice become like this?"
"Injured..."
"Oh, the corpse is ungrateful, have you resisted?"
Liu Sheng nodded.
The shoulder was patted again.
"They are like this. People at the bottom can't figure out what they want, but they will only regret it in the end."
Another person smiled and said, "That's not true. He doesn't think about their qualifications and class. If he hadn't joined the corpse department, how could he have the chance to ascend?"
"However, their way of dedication is too painful, I don't want it." Someone shook his head and said, "Although people like us are not rich, they can at least work to earn tribute. It's not fast, but there is always hope."
The man said, took out his cell phone, lit it skillfully for a few times, and immediately a clear bell rang, as if it were a big bell, echoing from another higher world in this office.
Suddenly, everyone's expressions became solemn.
"The God of Light is above."
The man proudly showed the screen of his phone to others, and the line of golden words on it was particularly conspicuous: [You have offered 18 dedication values to the God of Light. 】
"Yes, this way is long-lasting and you will be happy steadily..."
From this point of view, everyone was a little anxious. They all worshiped them for eighteen o'clock, so we can't fall behind. We quickly return to our respective positions to work.
Liu Sheng also sat back to his "his own" position quietly.
Someone asked, "Where is the one who attended with you? He usually talks a lot, but suddenly he can't hear it, and he is not used to it."
Liu Sheng shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.
"Okay, I guess I've gone to the bathroom to catch fish. Such people who don't like to contribute are really not good."
At this time, a crisp sound came from Liu Sheng.
The eyes of the people around her instantly turned to her, with a faint envy and jealousy.
"Have your mission been given to you?" someone said in a sour tone.
Liu Sheng opened the phone and there was still some dark red blood stains on it. She wiped it with her gradually stiff hands as if nothing had happened and clicked on the message interface.
[Complete the task, you have received 30 dedication values and can be offered to the God of Light again! 】
Then a worship page popped up immediately, with a red background, and a cartoon version of the image of the God of Light sitting upright, almost the same as the one I saw in the temple.
There are several options below: [Fire incense], [Pray], [Please ask for a signature], and [Presentation].
Liu Sheng a little [burn incense].
Options appear: Normal, Sandalwood, Agarwood, Ambergris... The long list cannot see the end.
Since he was not using his own dedication value, Liu Sheng also slid to the bottom of the list without hesitation.
[Dedicated to the World Holy Fire Incense].
But as soon as you click, a cold prompt popped up on the screen: [Your dedication value balance is insufficient, please work hard to earn! 】
Liu Sheng gently curled the corner of his mouth, slid back to the top, and clicked [Normal].
The contribution value will be out immediately at 8 o'clock.
Three virtual fragrances appeared in the center of the screen, and the green smoke slowly rose up, and then the prompt jumped out:
[The God of Light feels your piety and is quite satisfied with you. 】
[Congratulations, you are one step closer to ascending. 】
Immediately afterwards, a progress bar appeared on the screen, with the current progress being 21.87%, and slowly climbing to 21.88% as the incense burns.
This move once again attracted a clear bell.
Everyone turned their heads to look at Liu Sheng, with obvious jealousy and vigilance in their eyes, as if they were afraid that she would "season" first.
Liu Sheng put away his cell phone expressionlessly.
However, this body itself is not hers, and it is difficult to make expressions.
At this moment, the alarm ring suddenly rang.
The ringtone was quick and harsh, as if it was urging something to rush.
"Another task?" Someone was excited.
Especially when seeing Liu Sheng’s gains, many people were even more anxious to sit still.
However, soon, someone noticed the abnormality.
"No, the sound seems different..."
"This is not a mission, it's... something happened!"
"What?"
No one saw that Liu Sheng pulled the corner of his mouth and showed a smile.
Almost at the same time, all computer screens in the office were forced to switch to a dazzling red interface, and blood-like colors reflected on everyone's face.
A line of huge and cold words scrolled on the interface:
[The external god invaded, your ascension room has been hijacked. 】
"What's going on?"
Someone tried to control the computer with a mouse, but found that the system was completely locked and the keyboard and trackpad were not responding.
"Also, why has our Ascension Room been hijacked? Can't no one know about the Ascension Room?"
"So where is the ascension room?"
"Only the boss knows."
"Where is the boss?"
"I don't know."
And such chaos is not limited to this office, but spread to the entire floor and various departments.
The office was completely paralyzed. People walked out of their respective office areas one after another, and their expressions gradually changed from uneasiness to fear.
Some people also think something is wrong and want to escape to the ground level.
But as soon as the elevator was opened, it was full of wriggling golden tentacles, which looked even more dazzling and sacred than the light leaked from the God of Light, but it also had a sacred sense that shocked the soul, making people dare not look directly at it.
The elevator door slowly closed, and everyone gradually came to their senses.
"Is it really... an external god?" someone murmured.
"What kind of god is this?"
At this time, a person who was still facing the computer or holding a tablet in the office saw a flash of words:
【Glad someone asked this question. 】
Then a line of words slowly emerged:
[My name is Mother Earth. 】
No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!
...
On the ground floor, a nearly scrapped speed vehicle that could only fly at a low altitude stumbled in front of the glass cover outside Hongsheng Flying Co., Ltd.
Seeing the golden tentacles covered with glass covers, the owner of the car - an old man in an outdated suit, looked depressed and fearful.
He shivered and did not dare to move forward, but a tentacle suddenly broke through the glass cover and dragged him out of the driver's seat without hesitation.
"Ah!" the old man screamed and his body was thrown into the glass cover.
Tentacles threw him to the ground, and when he looked up, he saw ten corpse employees in gray uniforms standing in a row.
They were wrapped in tentacles, and while they were trembling, they looked at him with resentment.
These tentacles make a sound together:
"You are the boss here, are you?"
The old man stuttered and wanted to deny it, but was exposed by the employee of the corpse department: "That's right! It's him!"
"Very good, then I want to ask, the truth about your so-called ascension..."
The old man shook his head desperately, his face pale, and he couldn't say a word.
The tentacles seemed to be angry.
No, according to the information he saw.
This Earth Mother was angry.
Originally, he thought some hacker had sneaked into his company. After all, he knew that his company's system was old, but he didn't expect it to be like this.
In anger, Lord Earth Mother's tentacles grew more and more vigorously, filling the entire glass cover, squeezing it to pieces, and finally shattered completely in a deafening burst.
The old man subconsciously closed his eyes, waiting for the glass fragments to cut through his skin.
However, the severe pain in his imagination did not come - he slowly opened his eyes, but found that all the glass fragments were caught by the tentacles, suspended around him, like a still sharp wave.
A complex emotion arose in his heart, but the outside of this world is full of weirdness. Once exposed, he will quickly turn into a monster that is neither human nor ghost.
Looking at this tentacle again, it seems that it is very adaptable to this environment, and even seems to have absorbed something, possessed more vitality, and continued to extend upwards-until it completely tear apart this gloomy sky!
The old man was shocked, but he also stared at him intently.
What is the world above...
Suddenly, the light shone brightly, and a huge lamp appeared in the dark crack, shining straight on the ground below.
Under this light, the old man saw a dark and charred body arranged into geometric structures such as strips and dots.
The light casts the shadows of these bodies on the lower realm, and the light and shadow have formed the high-rise buildings and traffic that people have always looked up to - the prosperity and future in their eyes, and they devote all the "upper realm" they want to reach...
The old man was stunned, his mind blank.
"Boss, this...is this the 'upper world'?"
A voice came from behind, and he suddenly turned around and found that his employees had crawled out of the ground at some point, staring at the cracks in the sky one by one.
"You have known the truth for a long time, right?" someone asked, his tone mixed with irresistible anger.
He opened his mouth and wanted to say he didn't know.
But no one would believe it.
"So, what is the ascension?"
"Where does our offerings... go?"
"Does the God of Light really exist?"
One question after another is like a spike, leaving the boss speechless.
Until it exploded on the spot.
The boss's mouth was permanently sealed.
What kind of power can do this?
Everyone's devout faith in the God of Light was shaken at this moment, and that dedicated heart collapsed with the emergence of the truth.
Not only those who were protected in the glass house, but those who were surviving on the desolate land also raised their heads and looked at the torn hole in the sky.
One passes to ten, ten passes to hundreds, and the shock of the truth spreads like a tide.
The belief in dedication gradually collapsed, and the foundation of faith in the whole world began to shake violently.
So the "God of Light" finally couldn't sit still.
Finally appeared...
But it was only on Liu Sheng's phone.
Liu Sheng looked down and saw that the image of the God of Light on the phone was much more lively, as if it had a certain soul. There were no longer only four options, but instead it was a dialogue bubble.
【What do you want? 】
Liu Sheng pulled the corner of her mouth again, and she gently tapped a few words: [It is worthy of being the "God of Light", and he actually found me directly. 】
The God of Light on the screen shook slightly, [The existence under your skin is as dazzling as the beacon in the darkness, and it is difficult to not see it. 】
【What do you want? 】Ask again.
Liu Sheng knocked calmly:
[What is the so-called ascension? 】
[It seems that you are not a true god, and you don’t even understand ascension. 】The corner of the mouth outlined by the God of Light animation showed a vivid ridicule.
Liu Sheng's eyes turned cold:
[Haha, you are just a demigod. He could not achieve the so-called "true ascension", but he called himself the "God of Light", but he didn't even understand why he could not become a god. 】
【Do you know? 】
【certainly. 】
Agile question marks appeared on the light bulb of the God of Light.
[So, you know that what I did was not really ascendant, but you hijacked my ten ascension chambers and shaken the cornerstone of my faith in this world, just want to know why I did this? 】
【That’s right. 】
【…】
[Just treat it as... business exchange? 】
[Or, I can take you to see for yourself what ascension is. 】
