Faced with his daughter's betrayal, Charles III looked troubled and seemed hesitant to take action.

That's how things gradually turned out the way they are now.

It was at this moment that the Queen of Hearts began to regret her decision.

Because at that moment she realized that she was starting to lose control of the situation.

It will take her time to turn other people into card puppets.

However, in the process, the shepherds began to target their own kingdom with fervor.

Large numbers of citizens began to disregard the king's orders and started to act according to the shepherd's commands.

This led to the rapid decline of royal power.

Although the Queen of Hearts has gained de facto control of the country and has been able to begin to engage with the witchcraft 'in the name of God', she finds that her control over the witchcraft is extremely weak.

Given this situation, it would take her at least ten more years to decipher this witchcraft.

And ten years...

"I was about to die at that time!!" The Queen could feel the blatant targeting.

The country is rapidly spiraling out of control, and the resources she can mobilize are dwindling rapidly.

She used the king's orders, and no one was willing to listen anymore.

The orders never left the palace, or rather, once they left the palace, no one took them seriously.

The official explanation for the beast incident is that it was a spy planted by some evil force.

However, it is clear to anyone with discerning eyes that the problem was caused by the king and queen of the duchy.

If they can kill their own daughters, what wouldn't they do for power?

As a result, the royal family's reputation was completely ruined.

It was only then that the Queen of Hearts realized that she wasn't actually that outstanding.

This realization nearly caused her witchcraft to collapse.

She was able to be 'omnipotent' before because she had mastered witchcraft and disguised herself.

She doesn't follow the rules when everyone else does.

Now, once others discover that she doesn't follow the rules, she loses all her advantages.

Many people believe they are better than others, but this superiority is often based on their social class and status.

Once you're in the same position, it's really hard to say whether someone is good or not.

It was under these circumstances that the Queen of Hearts felt resentful.

She even killed her own daughter for this, but what she got in return did not satisfy her.

It was at this time that someone quietly came to the door.

"Who are you?" The Queen of Hearts asked warily as she saw two people with different identities and demeanors arrive.

"We are the people of the mind."

"Of course, according to your understanding, you can call us enemies from another world."

The moment the two men spoke, the Queen of Hearts immediately stood up and looked at them warily.

"Don't be nervous. I don't think you have much loyalty to this world."

How about this?

"By choosing to become one of us, you will only gain greater opportunities for advancement."

Chapter 608 The Method to Escape the World

On that day, the Queen of Hearts ultimately did not pass on the relevant information.

Things turned out exactly as the two possessed individuals had described.

She had reached a dead end in this world, and at the same time, she had no loyalty to this world whatsoever.

According to the two little men, their garden world holds the key to the path to truth in this world.

Even just a few words were enough to stir up the Queen of Hearts' inner turmoil.

"Does the entire world only have a few decades left to exist?" The Queen of Hearts didn't know if this news was true or false, but ever since she received it, she had been having nightmares frequently.

And in my nightmares, I saw the world being destroyed.

Finally, on the third day, when she saw the two little human envoys again, she made up her mind to learn about their world.

It was upon realizing this that the Queen of Hearts completely broke down.

Their world, along with the dozen or so otherworldly realms around them, were all semi-virtual worlds created by an adult for experimental purposes.

That is precisely why the power of thought is so strong.

In addition, because it is semi-virtual, all worlds will be destroyed seven days after the 'Creator God'.

Four days have passed, leaving less than three days.

Even if their world has a faster time flow, these three days of the gods are only fifty or sixty years to them.

Fifty or sixty years?

This period of time is very long, but it seems to pass by exceptionally quickly in their eyes.

She greedily wanted it to last forever.

"Fake, all of it is fake!" The Queen of Hearts looked at the documents and frantically denied their existence.

Then she immediately took all the information into her hands and began to verify it according to the method described above.

Over the years, the Lilliputians have become the world's best at mental imagery technology.

They had long understood the nature of the world, and then began to explore and utilize that nature.

Therefore, mental imagery has become a universal technique in fictional spaces.

The Queen of Hearts, relying on the technology above, began to use her thoughts to drive changes in the things around her.

She took a clump of soil and, following the method in the materials, subtly altered the soil entirely through her own ingenuity.

Combined with appropriate mental imagery and rituals.

The soil gradually solidified, and after about three seconds, the solidified soil scattered into a mess.

Subsequently, through multiple consecutive experiments, the time it takes for matter to change under the power of thought was calculated.

With multiple verifications, a corresponding conclusion can be basically drawn.

A certain 'constant' of the world is gradually weakening.

This is the manifestation of the truth that the world will collapse in a few decades.

At this point, as long as the Queen of Hearts retains some semblance of rationality, she must accept the future where the world will be wiped out.

After all, this information can be calculated using stable technical means.

She was not a fool who knew nothing; on the contrary, she had a very deep understanding of the world in order to study witchcraft.

It was precisely this deep understanding that allowed her to trust the technology of the Dwarfs.

Because many of these theories perfectly explain her doubts about the world over the years.

A few days later, when the Queen of Hearts met the dwarf envoy again, she had fully accepted the dwarfs' information.

"So you have a way to escape the Great Disillusionment?" the Queen of Hearts asked.

The Lilliputians defined the impending destruction that would come seven days after the gods as the Great Illusion.

At that time, all illusions will crumble.

“Of course!” the little messenger said confidently, and then presented a new document, which was a semi-virtual layer called the Abyss.

This is a world that has existed in the real world for a long time.

The demons inside can possess a real body in the abyss, but once they come to the real world, they only need to find a vessel to exist.

"Based on this information, we have developed virtual soul technology."

"As long as you can grasp the truth of your heart, you can eventually complete the virtual soul."

"Of course, there is still one problem that has not been solved in this process."

"question?"

“That’s right, adaptation to global differences,” the little messenger said earnestly.

"Because most of the world we live in is virtual, time flows many times faster than in the real world."

"Once we go to the real world like this, even with a virtual soul to carry us, our thinking will collapse in an instant due to the collapse of our sense of time."

"Therefore, we must complete our transformation before the world is destroyed."

"So what needs to be accomplished to achieve this transformation?" the Queen of Hearts asked hastily. At this point, the throne she had previously pursued was no different from a piece of waste paper.

"Although most of our world is virtual, some parts of it are real."

"This part of the things that actually exist is the commonality."

"We need to use our thinking to understand those commonalities."

"But our thinking is too weak to distinguish whether these rules are commonalities or virtual illusions."

"Therefore, we need a reference point."

"Wandering through different worlds, and then discovering the differences between them."

"The most important point is to strip away the essential differences between the different worlds." The little man didn't keep this a secret, but said directly, "We have already destroyed one world."

"When that world was destroyed, it began to collapse, turning into the most primitive mud and minerals."

"And this vision of a collapsing world is the best reference point for us to understand."

"The mud deposits left after the world collapses will be our best resource!"

The Queen of Hearts then realized why these little people were so eager to persuade her.

"You want me to help you destroy our own world?"

“That’s right!” The villain made no attempt to hide his intentions.

“Your world is an excellent target. Apart from the messy rules of morality and law, the other rules seem to fit the real world very well.”

"Our little people, in fact, value the inheritance of spirit and will more than the inheritance of bloodline."

"As long as you can acknowledge our spirit and will, then our little race can accept your existence."

"Will we perish along with this world, or will we become members of the Lilliputians and strive for that sliver of hope to escape this world and become real beings?"

Faced with the invitation from the dwarfs, the Queen of Hearts paused for a moment before laughing.

"My choice, naturally, is to agree!"

At this moment, the Alliance for the Collapse of the World was established.

Meanwhile, the other nobles, almost all of whom could no longer tolerate the shepherd's reforms, began to plot conspiracies.

Chapter 609 Omens of the Decisive Battle

These nobles could sense at this moment that while they were unsure whether the enemies from the other world could destroy them, the shepherds were indeed about to annihilate them.

With such a terrifying tax, theoretically they would have virtually nothing left.

Every day, they're scraping away the old foundation.

If this continues, all the hard-earned wealth of their ancestors and fathers will be plundered by the shepherds.

So while they still have some power, they must make sure the shepherd is completely silenced.

"The problem is how we should get rid of him," a nobleman said, looking very troubled.

"He possesses divine gifts, and through blessings, he has fused these gifts with his body, making his individual strength already at its peak."

"His defense is even stronger than his attack power. How are we supposed to fight him?"
