Life Game In Other World

Chapter 1274: Chapter 1274: Wizard, World, ‘God’ (Grand Chapter for Monthly Votes)

“””

The cool moonlight cascaded from the firmament above, illuminating the dim path winding through the forested mountains.

He Ao lifted his head, gazing at the endless range of mountains ahead. He couldn’t fathom how long he had been walking—was it a few kilometers, ten kilometers, or even hundreds?

When he first caught sight of these mountains, they filled him with novelty and intrigue.

But as the journey revealed one identical range after another, one repeated landscape after another, his emotions began to dull.

The path winded through dense forests as well as undulating stretches of withered grass.

Yet, throughout his journey, he hadn’t encountered a single living person—he hadn’t even seen any signs of life.

The dense forest bore no traces of chirping insects or singing birds, nor any subtle sounds hinting at life’s activity.

Only the brittle yellow leaves stirred faintly under the night breeze, producing a soft rustling sound.

At first, this sound whispered of a forest’s solitude, carrying with it a faint melancholy. But if this sound were the only voice in the world, if it continued endlessly, it would resemble the world’s own eerie “chewing” noise, tinged with a macabre terror.

After crossing yet another mountain ridge, He Ao stood atop the peak and lifted his gaze forward.

This time, the view was different—the first divergence from the repetition that had haunted his journey.

What greeted his field of view wasn’t another stretch of undulating mountains, but a vast, sprawling plain.

At the boundary where the plain met the mountains, an imposing city stood steadfastly.

The city did not resemble any modern creation. Its enormous walls towered high, built from compacted soil and stacked stone, devoid of visible concrete or steel reinforcement.

It seemed more like a relic of an agricultural era with limited technological advancement.

And yet, the towering walls—seemingly seventy or eighty meters high—far exceeded what He Ao understood to be possible for such a primitive period.

City walls are typically constructed to defend against external threats. For example, the fortified cities of the dungeon world were built to shield against exotic beasts and eerie anomalies.

For humans of a normal agricultural age, there would be no need for such colossal walls, nor would they possess the means to build them.

Conversely, in an industrial age armed with combat aircraft, walls would have far less utility, making it unnecessary to invest so much effort into their construction.

The engineering and defensive capabilities of these walls exceeded He Ao’s expectations.

The “life” of this constructed world seemed to have progressed along a civilizational path distinct from both the main world and the dungeon world.
