Chapter 563 Taken

And things like this are not uncommon in their world.

Most ordinary people are enslaved their entire lives, and everything they have is only temporary.

Then, ownership will eventually be stripped away by the upper class, thus becoming everything to the upper class.

The same applies to nobles; they appear to be slave owners, but they are slaves themselves.

Everything they painstakingly built up could be easily stripped away if the royal family took a liking to it.

Even the status of nobility can be stripped away or changed by the royal family.

Therefore, for everyone under the royal family, life is mostly painful, and all good things are fleeting.

When the fleeting becomes the norm, their perceptions will change, and they will either begin to pursue long-term stability or become even more obsessed with pursuing fleeting moments of beauty.

If you can experience something beautiful, even if it's just for a moment, it's worth it.

This perception is very popular, so it is quite normal for nobles to have this mentality of knowing there is a problem but still being willing to take the risk.

Even if he assassinated the royal family and seized a royal position through forbidden secret arts, he would not care if he were subsequently killed by various forces.

Since beauty is fleeting, having experienced it even for a moment is enough.

Upon seeing this, Adrian was somewhat startled.

His thinking and cognition constitute this world, and the people under this system will naturally undergo changes in their thinking because of this cognition.

This world system suppresses life, and the thoughts that naturally arise from life are a form of resistance against this system of rules.

In this world, thought is power. A person's thoughts can only slightly change themselves, and even if they embark on a path of extraordinary achievement, they can only change some of the material things around them.

But once it forms a trend of thought, it will inevitably shake the world.

“This is also a trap set by the Creation.” Adrian immediately understood.

The rules of the world shape the life they create, and while intervention is possible in this process, it is very difficult to truly prohibit thought.

He created humanoid creatures and naturally designed control switches for each of them, and naturally proved the legitimacy of the privileges of royalty, nobles, and commoners through rules.

In this situation, initially, most humanoid beings, after developing intelligence, did indeed believe that this system was reasonable.

Even if there is a rebellious mentality, it is confined to the rules. Commoners will only use every means to please the royal family and compete with other nobles for the opportunity to become nobles.

The nobility, on the other hand, competed with those below them to stabilize the situation.

However, the biggest problem in this process was that war broke out.

The ideas of other worlds are also gradually infiltrating their world as war rages on.

If they had never seen the light, they could have endured the darkness.

Compared to life in other worlds, these humanoid beings gradually realized how ridiculous their lives of slavery were.

In this context, they ironically gave rise to a trend of pursuing fleeting pleasures.

This trend of thought does not seem to conflict much with the rules of the world.

but……

Adrian always thought there was plenty of time, that Nemes wasn't ready, and that he wouldn't easily take him down.

But at this moment he realized that the trend of thought had already taken shape, so the time had come.

The rules of the world have developed numerous hidden flaws under the influence of ideologies. These flaws are usually concealed within the normal operation of the world's rules and do not cause any problems.

Now that things have come to this, it's too late for him.

Adrian looked up and gazed into the distance.

Not far away, a member of the royal family suddenly collapsed to the ground, his power rapidly flowing towards a dirty slave.

The slave was now shouting wildly that he had killed a member of the royal family and was now the new royal. "I am the slave owner, and you are all my slaves!!" Royal family members were extremely rare, and theoretically possessed the sovereignty of all nobles and commoners.

Only commoner slaves and other members of the royal family could escape their control.

In this situation, unless two members of the royal family were vying for the same slave, their power would be limitless.

Upon seeing this, the dwarf army immediately seized the opportunity and launched an attack on the area.

The legion's power swiftly tore through the defenses.

The nobles under the protection of the royal family quickly descended into chaos.

When the slave controllers panic, all forms of control become ineffective, and many of the common people's suppressed thoughts burst forth at this moment.

They ignored the discipline that could only be formed through forced control and began to enjoy this 'freedom'.

The battle lines that the giants had held up thanks to the powerful fighting force of the royal family members were rapidly beginning to crumble.

Many giants began to die or be controlled by the little people to become puppets.

"It's hopeless." During this process, the limited help from the Eldar seemed futile.

Hayes' current problem is that the Eldar themselves are unwilling to participate in the war.

Most Eldar believe that the loss of others, or even allies, is not their concern.

The kind of personality that Hayes had—wanting to enjoy power but unwilling to take responsibility—was perfectly embodied in these Eldar.

In addition, the Eldar were so closely integrated with the world that Hayes could hardly command them.

Therefore, as the giants' last line of defense collapsed, the Eldar immediately began preparations for retreat.

The victory of the Dwarfs is unstoppable.

With this in mind, Adrian did not hesitate at all, stood up, and his thoughts surged wildly with his mental energy.

He wanted to die together with Nems.

He has no chance of winning.

By this point, his allies were already gradually abandoning him.

Everyone made the right choice very rationally.

At this moment, the first thing Hayes and Alice did was not to rescue Adrian, but to work together to devour Adrian's world.

If it weren't Adrian's world that was chosen from the beginning, but Hayes' world instead.

Adrian would probably make a similar choice at this moment.

When alliances are possible, unite to fight against each other.

When an ally is about to lose, the best way is to let the ally make a final contribution by seizing all of their remaining resources, so that you can better fight against the enemy.

In this situation, Adrian was completely driven to despair.

He could only watch as yet another commoner became a slave.

The other party, with ulterior motives, attacked the royal family, delivering the final blow to this system and to this world.

Amidst the upheaval of the rules, the hidden traces caused by the underlying ideologies also erupted.

The whole world is collapsing rapidly.

Everything seems to be heading back to that muddy state.

But he, the 'creator', felt himself locked in at that moment.

Then everything that belonged to him was swiftly plundered. (End of Chapter)
