At this moment, shatter the dimensional barrier

A doting voice came from the table in front of me.

In the days to come when we are gone, you must be strong.

[In this new world, there's no Sima Heavy Industries. You need to curb your spoiled princess attitude. Just be a person, an ordinary person, and you must be cautious and prudent. Make sure you have friends and cultivate genuine friendships.]

[Go on your way, daughter. Don't catch a cold while you're alone.]

Click! The phone was hung up.

"Board the ship," Sima Weizhi murmured, her voice choked with emotion, as she wiped away her tears with her sleeve.

……

Time passed slowly, and four days flew by in the blink of an eye. The time for the world-ending flood was fast approaching.

Joan of Arc stood on the planet's atmosphere and sighed deeply.

"Are you disappointed, Joan of Arc?" A voice rang in Joan of Arc's ears. Joan of Arc quickly looked over and saw Saint Louis standing beside her, calmly looking at her.

Joan of Arc blushed and lowered her head in shame: "I'm sorry, my lord, I actually questioned your decision. Please punish me." Joan of Arc knelt down on one knee in mid-air.

"I was so excited when I heard about the great flood that I made the 'Three Heroes' pact with you without understanding the actual situation. I made a serious mistake, and I ask you to punish me."

She had traveled to every civilized area of ​​the planet over the past two days, but reality slapped her in the face; the stench of evil in every place was so thick that it infuriated her.

Apart from civilized areas, the entire planet, both on land and in the sea, has become a world of Gastrea.

The strongest Gastrea have reached the fourth tier, and they all carry huge herds. Any one of these herds could easily flatten a civilized area.

“You didn’t find all three heroes, did you?” Los Saint looked at Joan of Arc kneeling before him, her ears red with shame.

"It's good that you didn't find it. Although it's said that the deeper the darkness, the brighter the light, there are always exceptions."

"Some civilizations are simply incapable of producing heroes."

"This civilization is so incapable that even a single hero could emerge."

“I granted Matsuzaki the Eye of God simply because of something beyond his spiritual level,” Los Saint continued. Matsuzaki was the only adult character he liked when he first watched anime.

“The Holy Emperor’s ideal barely meets the standard of a hero, but her heart is not firm enough, and her ability to act cannot keep up with her ideal. She only has a tiny chance of becoming a hero,” said Luo Sheng.

"Besides, she is only 16 years old and not yet an adult, which does not meet the conditions I set for you."

"Joan of Arc, your biggest problem is that you're too emotional. Your judgment and actions are easily swayed by momentary emotions." Los Saint criticized her mercilessly. He was criticizing Joan of Arc from the perspective of divine justice and God, which is why one should use official titles when working.

The nickname 'Jeanne d'Arc's Fairness' comes from Joan of Arc's impulsive and unfair actions due to a moment of emotion.

"Yes." Joan of Arc lowered her head, her cheeks burning. She would remember the Lord's criticism and never make the same mistake again.

"I'll forgive you for your first mistake, but don't let it happen more than three times. Don't blame me for punishing you then," Luo Sheng said. Hmm, if you dare to talk back to me again, hmph, then I'll have to punish you severely behind closed doors.

"Yes, my lord." Joan of Arc responded instantly, like a wilted cabbage. She had done such a terrible thing that she would surely be criticized by the world in the new Bible and regarded as a foolish and rebellious angel.

"Then, let the Great Flood begin." Los Saint looked down at the planet that was exactly like Earth, slowly raised his hand, and then quickly swung it down.

Rumble rumble rumble—

A vast amount of water instantly enveloped the entire planet, and the planet's atmosphere emitted a water-blue light. Rain carrying water elements poured down to the earth like a waterfall.

Sea levels are rising at a visible rate, the four oceans are in turmoil, and tsunamis exceeding 10,000 meters in height are forming and engulfing the continents.

Tokyo was the first to suffer.

After four days of chaos, Tokyo's population had dwindled by half. Their frenzied venting of desires—the desire to kill, to destroy, and to have sex—had left Tokyo's streets and alleys littered with swollen corpses soaked in rainwater.

After their desires were satisfied, the remaining people wandered the streets like zombies.

A deafening roar echoed throughout the world; it wasn't thunder, but the sound of the earth being crushed.

The zombies looked up and saw only the floodwaters rushing towards them at an unknown speed.

The floodwaters had already covered the clouds, which were tens of thousands of meters high, making it seem as if the sky and the sea had merged into one.

"The great flood is coming, hehe, hehehehe..." The walking corpse-like man, with vacant eyes and a numb expression, spread his arms and shouted madly, "Come on! Damn great flood! End me! Hahahaha..."

Alone and powerless, Rentaro Satomi knelt on the ground, his eyes reflecting a wall of pale blue light in extreme terror: "The world... is destroyed! Aaaaaah—"

Chapter 171: The Gates of Hell Open Wide, Hell's Carnival Unfolds, and a New World Arrives

Rumble rumble rumble—

A massive flood, thousands of meters high, submerged the entire country of Japan in just five seconds. Under the destructive power of the water element, human cities and buildings were completely destroyed, and the creations of human civilization were broken down into their most basic substances.

The sinners did not die instantly in the great flood, but were swept away by it. Their skin and muscles were torn apart by the water element, as if they were in sulfuric acid. They struggled desperately as the flood carried them, inhaling seawater in the process. The water element decomposed their internal organs and tissues in their bodies.

The physical pain, far exceeding what humans can endure, constantly assaulted their nerves. Not only their bodies, but their minds also suffered pain equal to that of their sins.

"Gurgle gurgle..." At this moment, Rentaro Satomi felt as if he was being agitated in a washing machine filled with sulfuric acid. The last thing he could see was the emerald green 'Noah's Ark' passing overhead. His will to survive made him subconsciously reach out his hand, but the blue light quickly disintegrated his hand. His skin disappeared, his muscles disappeared, and in the end, only bones remained.

Eventually, the trace of Rentaro Satomi disappeared from this planet.

In the great flood that destroys the world, the deeper the sins, the slower the death; every second of suffering is like the sum of one's sins.

From outer space, the originally blue-white planet is now rapidly turning into a pure blue planet.

The four oceans engulfed all the land at an extremely rapid pace, breaking down all living life on the land and in the sea, including viruses, into the most basic substances.

All traces of human civilization will vanish the moment the great flood engulfs all the land.

Only seven emerald green giant ships floated quietly on the sea, as if the turbulent waves beneath the surface had no effect on anything on board, not even causing a sway.

The people on Noah's Ark were huddled on the hull, watching in terror as the flood destroyed everything, and the carcasses of large Gastrea were occasionally slapped to the surface by the waves.

Even watching the sinners struggle and disintegrate in the waves, everything familiar vanishes rapidly in that moment.

The people on board prayed, rejoiced, wept, and waited...

On the 'Noah's Ark' that carries the survivors of the Japanese Civilization Zone.

The environment on Noah's Ark was no different from that on land; there were forests, buildings, meadows, gardens, farms, and people farming and studying—it was like a small city.

It could easily provide for the daily lives of a million people, but the total number of survivors in the entire Tokyo Civilization District was less than 400,000.

Although the world was being destroyed by a great flood outside Noah's Ark, life had to go on after the initial emotional shock.

At the call of the former ruler of Tokyo, the Holy Emperor, the survivors spontaneously restored order on the 'Noah's Ark'.

Those with governing abilities spontaneously gathered around the Holy Emperor to begin managing and classifying the people.

However, most of the survivors were children, so the entire Noah's Ark was more like a giant kindergarten, with the adults acting as 'parents'.

In a large canteen, thousands of children sat obediently on stools, watching expectantly as adults carried in large iron buckets containing the children's first lunch after boarding the ark. Some children were already drooling.

However, most of the children are normal, and only 30% are cursed children.

After boarding the 'Noah's Ark', the side effects in the Gastrea genes of the Cursed Children were cleared, and they can now be considered at most ordinary children who were born with genetic abilities.

"Dinner's ready! Good children should sit still and not take other children's food," said a kind-looking, slightly plump middle-aged woman, holding a child.

"Okay." ×n, the childish voices rang out in unison.

“They’re all good kids,” another young woman said affectionately.

"Kids, I'll start handing out fruit from here." Yamazaki walked in from behind the cafeteria, carrying a large basket filled with fresh fruit.

He didn't recognize what kind of fruit these were, but the fruit on the Ark must be edible. He had eaten them before, and they were very delicious. These must be fruits that only angels and gods could eat.

He felt incredibly lucky to have met a god and been granted the 'Eye of God,' which gave him inexhaustible strength and extraordinary knowledge about ranks.

He only knew that he was now a second-tier superhuman, but he didn't know exactly how strong he was, nor did he dare to use his abilities on the Ark, as that would be blasphemy against the gods and angels.

In fact, he felt he was not worthy of such a great gift as the 'Eye of God'.

Perhaps God intended for him to take on the mission of caring for those children in the new world, which is why He exceptionally granted him the 'Eye of God'.

While there are many adults who can board 'Noah's Ark', there are too many children. An adult basically has to take care of more than seven children, which would be difficult for an ordinary person to manage.

"Elder, elder, are we going to a world where we can eat our fill every day?" A child took a big, bright red fruit the size of an adult's fist, took a bite, squinted his eyes happily, and asked in a childish, innocent voice.

"Yes, a wonderful world where people are well-fed, warmly clothed, and loved by everyone."

A large cafeteria on the other side.

Tendo Kisei was frantically holding a toddler who was less than a year old and had just learned to walk. The child's eyes were red, proving that she was previously an abandoned 'cursed child'.

"Why do I have to take care of children too? I don't know how to take care of people, especially children..."

After boarding 'Noah's Ark', she, who previously suffered from kidney damage and needed dialysis to survive, was completely transformed and her body returned to normal.

However, the Holy Emperor had just asked them to take care of the one- or two-year-old children, as the adults were all too busy to help, so these fifteen- or sixteen-year-old girls needed to be looked after.

This caught her off guard. She used to practice killing techniques all the time in order to seek revenge, so how could she have such a warm and caring ability?

"Hmph, you're really useless, Sword Demon. What use are you besides wielding swords and spears?" Sima Weizhi mocked mercilessly, while feeding a baby less than a year old with a bottle.

"You fox, who are you talking about? You're no different." Tendou Kisara said with a dark face.

"Hehe, besides being skilled in swordsmanship, I am also proficient in housekeeping. As the daughter of the Sima family, I have to learn housekeeping from a young age. Taking care of children is also one of the courses. This is an important skill for being a good wife in the future." Sima Weizhi proudly raised her chin.

"A woman like you who only knows how to kill is destined to never get married."

"Hmph, so what?" Tendou Mugen said dismissively.

"Oh my god, haven't you noticed? The male-to-female ratio is three to seven, which means boys are in high demand, especially boys our age." Sima Weizhi said with a smile.

"Or do you want to remain a spinster for life? Or perhaps you want to try your luck with supernatural powers?"

The Holy Emperor has already told everyone about the extraordinary power.

The extraordinary rank is the process of becoming a god, but don't even think about becoming a god, it's too ethereal. Even reaching the fourth or fifth rank is considered the top of the pyramid of the entire civilization, a brave hero of an era.

The existence of a sixth-order being is legendary; it's questionable whether even one can emerge in an era.

It is certain, at least, that no fifth or sixth-order beings ever existed in their old era.

Fifth-tier heroes have lifespans of four to five hundred years, and sixth-tier heroes live for thousands of years. If such beings existed, the disasters of the old world would certainly not have occurred.

Perhaps the highest level ever reached in the old era was the fourth tier, and that was two thousand years ago, otherwise it would definitely be well-known.

Alas, their old era was truly tragic; thousands of years had passed since the last cataclysmic flood, and not a single hero had emerged.

"Extraordinary power? I have no interest in it. I'll be content living as an ordinary person in the new world," Kisara Tendo said after a moment of silence.

Just then, a blond-haired young man walked in, followed by four girls.

"I'm so sorry, my name is Katagiri Tamaki. I used to be a police officer. I'm just too busy to find the time. Could you please spare a little more time to take care of these three children and feed them? They were cursed children and may have some mental issues."
