The end of the world starts with failing the exam

When Chen Boxu woke up from his long sleep, he could hardly remember how many years had passed since Chen Jing left.

Hundreds of years?

For thousands of years?

"Why the hell did you wake me up?"

Chen Bofu was lying on the rocking chair in the study room, looking at the two old men in front of him impatiently.

Armitage, Hassard.

"Oh, I'm afraid you'll sleep to death, so I came here to see you." Armitage said with a sneer, "This is what everyone unanimously agreed on. After all, everyone is worried about you...you know what I mean. ?”

"Yes." Hassad nodded, "You old guy is crazy all day long. Suddenly you said you wanted to sleep forever, and then you slept for such a long time... You think we are not afraid? We are all afraid that you old guy can't think about it. !”

"Go away and say something useless..." Chen Bofu cursed, then slowly stood up and sat upright, rubbing his slightly stiff shoulders, and turned his head to look out the window.

In the yard of the old house.

Xiao Hei, who looks like a young boy, is sitting on the ground and writing something with a pen. Surrounded by a soft cloud-like color, Chen Boxu knows that this is the color of the deep space looking for Xiao Hei to learn from him. The most important thing is how to completely transform into a human being.

In the corner of the yard, on the swing that looked shabby.

Wei Nan and Yan Que sat side by side on it, holding on to the swing and rocking it forward while whispering about some developments in the "Interstellar Parliament".

Xu Ye and others were still standing in the distance. They didn't seem to dare to walk into the yard for fear of offending the old man who was suddenly awakened...

"You all have nothing to do." Chen Bofu turned over and left the recliner, rubbed his shoulders and walked out of the house, "What are you doing standing outside! Are you afraid that I will beat you up? Come in!"

"..."

As Chen Jing's grandfather, and as the only extraordinary creature besides Li Mobai who has been promoted to Sequence Nine, Chen Bofu is qualified to point at their noses and curse... In fact, the last time they interrupted the old man's sleep , they were scolded bloody.

"I can be promoted to Sequence Nine even while I'm sleeping. You guys have been stuck at Sequence Eight for so many years, and you still have the nerve to come see me?! Get out of here!!" This was the last time Chen was interrupted from his long sleep. Bo Fu's original words of swearing.

But even if he is promoted to Sequence Nine, what is the point?

Pointless.

At least that's what Chen Boxu thinks.

Even if he was promoted to the level of Sequence 9, he still looked much older than the Hassad bunch of losers. He walked hobbled as if he would fall over if the wind blew, and the wrinkles on his face were even more frightening.

So every time they met, everyone couldn't help but feel sore noses when they saw Chen Boxu's appearance. They all knew that this was because the old man missed Chen Jing too much...

"Old man!"

"You walk slower and watch your step!"

Wei Nan and Yan Que were the first to run over to help the old man. Their appearance has not changed in so many years, and they still look like they were in their twenties... Especially Wei Nan, whose fiery temperament has not changed at all, and there is still a hidden look between her eyebrows. He looks a bit evil, but overall he does seem to be much more mature than before.

"I can't die, why are you helping me..." Chen Boxu cursed, and then looked at Ryan who was hiding behind Xu Ye.

"Didn't I ask you to go to Kakosa to help? I told you not to come back. You bastard is really..."

"Old man, don't be angry!" Xu Ye was still the same, with a sincere kindness on his smiling face, "Ryan has helped us a lot over the years, and this time he is coming with us to see you!"

"Yes, sir!"

The little guy Ryan back then has now turned into a young man in his twenties, but his loyalty to the Chen family has never changed.

"Master, please let me come back. I'm really worried that I won't be watching over you..."

"If you ask me, just come back to the main city of Kakosa with us." The pigherder held a pile of packaged fresh ingredients, with the same naive smile on his face, "I'll cook today! Have a good time. I’ll make you a decent table!”

"Old man, everyone has missed you these years when you have been away." Yu Hui, wearing the uniform of the temple, still couldn't keep his dead face in front of the old man, and said sincerely, "You are the king's only relative. , if something goes wrong..."

"What are you talking about!" Bai En pushed him from the side.

"No one has quarreled with me since you were gone." Old Lawrence came out from behind with a helpless smile on his face, "Armitage and Hassad can't even see anyone when they are busy, and I'm so bored that I want to imitate you. Asleep."

"Can you learn it?" Kturt squeezed past Lawrence and walked into the courtyard with Dagon and Tekili, "Mr. Chen! How did you break through to Sequence Nine! I've been thinking about it for hundreds of years. I didn’t figure it out…”

"He is Wang's grandfather, but you are not. Why can you be promoted like the old man?" Xi stood aside and sneered, "Just because your body has so many tentacles? It's like an octopus about to be eaten..."

Seeing that they were about to quarrel again, Chen Bofu frowned and cursed.

"Can you please calm down? I just woke up and came to make noises in my ears... Piggy, don't you want to cook for me, grandpa? Go ahead, I happen to be a little hungry."

"Okay! I'll go now! Just wait a moment!"

The place where everyone gathered for the dinner was in the courtyard of Chen Jing's old house. After all, the house was too small to seat so many people, so we had to make a few large round tables and place them in the middle of the courtyard by making random things.

"Old man, I remember that Mr. Wu seems to be living at your place... Why don't you ask her to come and have dinner with you?"

"Forget it, she is more pessimistic than me. She is probably still asleep. Let's not bother her."

Chen Bofu raised his glass and drank it down in one gulp. His whole mood seemed very low. Looking at his old posture, he could hardly open his cloudy eyes. How could the old madman be so high-spirited back then? Looks like...

"You can leave after dinner. I will go to sleep for a while. Don't come to me again if you have nothing to do. Wake me up when my grandson comes back."

After hearing this, everyone looked at each other for a while, as if they wanted to say something, but seeing the old man's resolute attitude, they didn't have the courage to speak again.

"Master, you'd better go back with us..." In the end, only Ryan had the courage to say, "We really don't worry about you being here..."

"What's there to worry about!" Chen Bofu frowned and cursed impatiently, "Can't I just stay in Sentinel Ridge? I have to go back to the main city of Kakosa? Besides...I I don’t want outsiders to see it like this.”

Chen Boxu was always aware of his own changes and knew how miserable and miserable he had become, so he didn't want to go back to the outside world or have any contact with anyone... because he didn't want to embarrass his grandson.

He is Chen Jing's grandfather.

He is the only blood relative of the King of Deep Space.

If outsiders see him looking like an old beggar, they might have something to mutter in their hearts...

"Old man, don't worry, A Jing will definitely come back." Yan Que comforted him softly.

"Are you sure?" Chen Bofu said with a bitter smile, "It's been more than a thousand years now, right? Who has any news about him? Besides, that kid has never been away from me for so long. I'm worried that he will be bullied outside. What should I do if I feel wronged..."
