Chapter 116: Entering Frenzy Mode
“You’re quite proud of yourself.”
Suddenly, the voice sounded again.
Zhang Kai smiled, “Can’t I be proud? If even you feel helpless against me, wouldn’t that count as an achievement?”
“Do you really think I’m helpless against you?”
“Isn’t that so? If you had a way, would you let me sabotage you here?”
“You seem very confident. Good. This thing was never meant to be controlled by outside forces. With a master like you, perhaps it can become even more unpredictable, breaking free from the rules. Very good, very good.” The voice suddenly praised him.
Zhang Kai was puzzled.
What’s going on?
Could this taboo not be an enemy?
“Kid, since I have appeared, the game officially begins. The Three Realms are your beginner’s village. If you can step out of this beginner’s village, you’ll qualify to understand the powers you possess, and you’ll have the right to pursue the eternal and unique.”
Hearing this, Zhang Kai’s heart skipped a beat. He asked, “What if I can’t get out?”
“There’s still a hundred years in the human world. You only have a hundred years.”
The voice gradually faded and disappeared.
Zhang Kai was stunned.
What the hell?
A hundred years?
Is this a countdown to destruction?
But damn it, can you tell me what exactly I’m supposed to do? What kind of game is this? Am I supposed to level up, build something, or destroy heaven and earth? You have to give me some direction.
Zhang Kai called out, shouted, but this time, the taboo no longer responded.
It seemed to mean that Zhang Kai must figure it out on his own.
Zhang Kai was dumbfounded, panicked.
This was too unexpected.
He originally thought he controlled everything, that the human world was under his command.
Indeed, even the taboo couldn’t touch him. Wasn’t he the number one in the human world?
But this number one only lasted a hundred years.
A hundred years is a normal human lifespan.
But Zhang Kai’s life span was longer than a hundred years. If it was to end together with this, that would be premature death.
Zhang Kai refused to accept this outcome.
---
Then, he had no choice but to play this game.
Although he didn’t know how the game was played or what he needed to do.
But since the taboo had appeared and declared the Three Realms as the beginner’s village,
He decided to go all out.
A wild plan formed in Zhang Kai’s mind.
The plan to overthrow the Three Realms.
The principle of “no destruction, no construction.” Since the game’s rules were unknown, he would create his own gameplay. Let all beings in the Three Realms follow his will. Regardless of the outcome, he would go mad for a hundred years.
Afterward, Zhang Kai left.
An hour later, Earth’s community suddenly issued an announcement, highlighted in red.
The content shocked the world.
“Abnormal spaces have appeared worldwide. The Ultraman Clan, after investigation, discovered these spaces were left by ancient Earth deities and pose a hidden danger. Their purpose is to destroy humanity and recreate the world. The deities behind this hide beyond the human realm, waiting for the accumulation of calamity qi to cause chaos and extinction among living beings. Faced with this, the Ultraman Clan cannot intervene, as this is humanity’s fated calamity and the direction of human destiny. The Ultraman Clan is a neutral and peaceful race and will not meddle in the fate wars of any species. Therefore, from today onward, the Ultraman Clan will remain hidden and will no longer interfere with human affairs. However, out of their pacifist principles, they will not cut off trades. But humanity’s fate must be fought for by humanity itself.”
Everyone was dumbfounded upon reading the announcement.
Countries were even more shocked.
Destroy humanity?
That meant extinction.
The news was too sudden; no one could accept it.
For a time, unrest erupted in many places worldwide. Many loyal followers of the gods refused to believe it, openly slandering the Ultraman Clan and threatening to leave Earth’s community, declaring war on the Ultraman Clan on behalf of the gods.
Within a few hours, tens of thousands died due to the chaos caused by this news, and many skirmishes broke out.
Nations cracked down forcefully.
Earth’s community was decisive: anyone expressing dissatisfaction with the Ultraman Clan was immediately blacklisted. Not only that, if one person slandered, the entire family was blacklisted.
This enraged the slanderers even more, as their relatives could not tolerate it.
“You’re a rotten apple ruining our whole family. Is this something family should do?”
Immediately, many rioters were not subdued by the government but stabbed by people around them.
Two days later, global unrest subsided.
Countries quickly convened a joint meeting to discuss the matter.
In the Celestial Empire, a massive conference room was already packed with nearly a hundred representatives from various races, buzzing with discussion.
Soon, representatives from several major powers appeared, and the chatter ceased. The room grew so quiet one could hear a pin drop.
---
“All right, everyone, take your seats. We’re here to discuss the issue of the gods extinguishing humanity,” the Celestial Empire representative began.
A foreigner stood up and shouted, “The gods would never wipe out humanity. We are all children of the gods. God would not abandon us. This topic is invalid.”
The Celestial Empire representative’s face darkened. “This is an international conference. We are here to solve the problem, not to excuse the gods. If you say the gods wouldn’t destroy humanity, what evidence do you have?”
“God loves the world. This is recorded in the Bible. The existence of gods is our spiritual support. So, the gods won’t hurt us.”
Someone stood and sneered, “From what you said, I don’t see what use we are to the gods. Do the gods need us? That aside, let me ask: if one day God asked you to kill yourself, would you?”
“How could God ask someone to commit suicide? God advocates self-love and strength.”
“What if God did?”
“God wouldn’t. God loves the world, God…”
“God my ass. Let God come out and say it personally, and then I’ll believe you.”
“God is in heaven. How could God come here to speak? We must understand God’s grace ourselves. You, a faithless heretic, will receive no blessing.”
“Damn, who let this idiot in? With such a brain, he can be a representative?”
“He’s from a **** country. He’s the boss.”
“Looks like before we solve the crisis, we need to deal with these deadweights first, or they’ll just be trouble.”
“Enough, no more bickering. Anyone else talks nonsense, don’t blame me for being rude,” the Celestial Empire representative barked.
“I could stay quiet, but—”
“Take him out and execute him,” the Celestial Empire representative cut him off before he finished.
Immediately, two armed men approached and dragged the man away.
The man was stunned, furious, “How dare you? Let me go! God will not forgive you!”
“Idiot, let your god save you now. If your god doesn’t, then your god is cold and merciless,” the man who had been mocked taunted back.
The Celestial Empire representative glanced over, and the taunter immediately ducked.
After the man was dragged away, everyone fell silent. The situation was likely more severe than imagined; otherwise, the normally gentle Celestial Empire wouldn’t be so overbearing.
“Now, let’s continue with the review. First, we will watch several videos and have some experts we invited share their insights,” said the Celestial Empire representative.
Several virtual projections appeared—an old monk, an old beggar, a burly man, a Taoist priest, a nun, a foreign elderly man and woman, and various other figures.
If ordinary people outside saw this, they would surely recognize them as the mysterious masters who had appeared worldwide recently.
In fact, they were all Zhang Kai’s alternate accounts.
