Su Ming'an showed a helpless smile, walked to their center, and looked at them:

"There are ten minutes left before it starts. Does anyone have anything to say?"

Clearly a passionate battle speech, yet it sounded like a eulogy saying "hurry up and speak, or it will be too late."

Lu stood up and said, "Su Ming'an, the United Group discussed with me. They sent a total of 19,283 people, carrying various equipment and props. If they encounter you, they will give them to you."

Su Ming'an nodded: "Okay."

Eni also said: "Su Ming'an, during your rest, the Alliance Watch Group, New World Guild, Holt Wizard Alliance... these organizations have also discussed with us, and will try to provide equipment and props for you."

It's truly grand.

Su Ming'an couldn't help but think.

Transferring equipment props, calculating Points, offering positioning props... this requires immense organizational power. This is a world without any coercive force, entirely relying on the power of speech.

"Captain, these are the potions I've made over the past few days. Once we enter the instance, I'll give them to you." Isabella handed over a dozen bottles and jars to Su Ming'an, her dark circles quite prominent.

"Su Ming'an, I sewed a great piece of equipment, and once we enter the instance, I'll give it to you," said Yamada Machiichi. His occupation allows him to make clothing-type equipment. These past few days, he worked day and night to sew a piece of clothing, inscribed with attributes most suitable for Su Ming'an.

"Captain, leave the fighting to me." Lunxue smiled.

"Captain, if socializing is needed, you can let me handle it," Yi Song modestly said. "Although I can't match the captain's emotional interaction skills, I will help share some of the troublesome flirts."

"In that case, leave the support to me! Captain, my camera can not only distort others' actions but also capture details that ordinary people can't see; you lack players with this type of information." Zhao Yuan smiled, holding up the camera.

"I can help analyze information and make suggestions." Bei Wang leaned against the sofa, like a sunk white seal. He is an intelligence-type full perfect clear player, best at analyzing clues.

"Captain, during the instance, I will provide internet support." Shiyi held a tablet.

"Su Ming'an, the healer will protect you!" Lin Yin hugged an enormous Priest's Staff.

"Captain, if you need exploration, just let me know." Alger said.

"Captain, you can entrust defense to me with confidence." Qin Si said with a smile.

"Father God." The most grand was Boris. He wore an exaggerated crown, strings of gemstone chains hanging by his ears, like a Pope stepping out of an ancient painting: "...I will also do my utmost for Father God."

Su Ming'an looked at such a scene, feeling melancholy.

This could be considered the world's most elite team.

Intelligence, Force, Charm, Luck, Emotional Intelligence... the top pinnacle players in every aspect gathered together, like dazzling bright pearls—the strongest dozen players in the entire civilization.

Except for Boris.

And he,

became their most trusted—

[Captain].

...

Let's begin.

At this moment, Su Ming'an sent out team invitations to fourteen players.

"Swish swish swish—"

In an instant, rows of avatars appeared on the left side of his vision, very magnificent—

[Current Team Survivors: 15/15]

...

Fifteen avatars lined neatly on the left side of his vision.

Looking at everyone's smile, he unknowingly smiled as well.

Strange.

He actually felt a bit of yearning—for a "best of both worlds" future.

The child aspiring for light only needs to run with all their might to reach the finish line. A flying bird only needs to strive forward to fly over the mountain.

For a future where everyone returns home together, and he successfully returns home with them to see the scenery of their hometown... such a blissful ending...

...

He can,

have a little hope, can't he?

...

When the countdown sounded, Su Ming'an took a last look at his personal panel.

Su Ming'an used 200 points to upgrade the "Space" skill, enhancing the "Spatial Displacement" skill to six times per hour, leaving 100 points as a reserve. Then he closed the panel.

Countdown—

Ten,

Nine,

Eight...

Amidst laughter and cheers, people repeatedly shouted "Captain."

Posts cheering for the "Number One Player Team" had already piled up to tens of millions. The world chat was filled with stories and expedition charts written by casual players for them.

The streets of the Main God World were packed with people. Whether they were adventurer players waiting for teleportation or casual players witnessing history—families left their homes to stand on the streets, gazing at the sky.

Waiting—-for that moment to arrive.

The streets were empty.

"Go! Go, everyone!"

"No matter the result, I won't regret it."

"I want to go home to see my mom... I must find a way to return home, even if it means collective dimensional ascension, I can accept it..."

"Go, Number One Player! I'll be waiting for you all to return from behind—!"

"May the Number One Player's team be victorious, laden with success. May the Number One Player be invincible..."

In such waiting,

In such cheering,

In such ethereal anticipation and fervent blessing—

Click.

[2025/04/02, 00:00]

...

"—Ding Dong!"

...

[Rest period is over—Dear players, welcome back to the World Game!]

[Eleventh World: Mirror of Creation·Luo Washa Plane. Non-directional development instance, role-playing instance.]

[Participating players: 510,291,982 people!]

[Mirror of Creation has no parallel instances, all adventurer players will take part in the game!]

[—The world begins!]

...

Su Ming'an closed his eyes, white light flashed—

...

"Shua—!"

Raging flames burned, rivers of blood flowed.

The land was full of scars, piles of bones like mountains.

A requiem drifted over the ruins, narrating the end and whispers of the old world.

Su Ming'an opened his eyes, feeling a hot, damp sensation over his body.

In front of him was a massive sun about to fall, like sinking gold. The skeletons stretched endlessly, tens of thousands of corpses piled up, blood flowing everywhere—this was the scene of the apocalypse.

…The instance just started, and the world is already being destroyed?

He felt he was holding something in his arms, stepping on something, and that there was a heavy weight on his shoulders, so he looked down—

In his arms was a blood-stained human head.

Golden hair lay limp between Su Ming'an's fingers, those blue eyes that were always cheerful were now silent, the face still holding the final moment's smile, the neck fractured, the neck bone bearing vivid cut marks.

That blue-eyed gaze was filled with complete acceptance, as if the journey had finally reached its end, so there was no need for regret.

…Noel.

Su Ming'an widened his eyes in disbelief, but quickly saw more—

By his left foot was a severely damaged corpse, white hair stained red, the body bearing marks of gnawing by insects, the black blade still tightly gripped in the hand. The green eyes, even in death, still looked at him, the sharp fangs broken.

By his right foot was a lifeless black-haired girl, bearing Roc's wings, her skin burned to a dry black, even the blood already coagulated.

…Lv Shu, Yuan Yuan.

He instinctively stepped back, only to feel something piled up behind him.

He turned around, surrounded by a blue-haired young man with demon horns, a white-haired bear-eared woman, and a brown-haired young man. They appeared drowned, bled to death, and electrocuted, their skin dry, eye sockets sunken, skinny fingers still pointing in his direction.

…Lu, Luna, Yamada.

He didn't look further back—he knew there would be more bodies.

What… is happening?

At this moment, he felt his body moved on its own, clutching the head in his arms, cheek brushing against blood, sighing with a smile:

"…This is fine."

On the throne of bone piled high, he felt himself stretch out his hands, pulling the skeletons bit by bit into his embrace, displaying a blissful, satisfied, pathological smile.

Under the black thunder, volcanic ash blocked the sky, like a crimson purgatory of the mortal realm.

Yet he embraced the skeletons, hair tangled, bowing down, offering each a kiss on the forehead, as if a gentle farewell.

Unbothered by the festering wounds on their foreheads, ashen grey brains slipping down the chin, falling into the chest.

"…Like this."

"You all look your most beautiful."

Until, he shifted his shoulder, and something on it fell down—

He saw clearly.

Black hair brushed past his cheek, a pair of black eyes, a fractured neck, a look of despair and unwillingness.

That was,

...a head resembling his own face.

...

...

[Tosolius, Tosolius.]

[Supreme Lord of creation in this world, shepherd of fate and causality, ruler of joy and sorrow!]

[I ask you—]

[—If Valrosa is to be a land of calamity, with Wandering Sinners enduring the twelve punishments, showcasing disasters of the heavens, traversing the Nine Serenities of destiny, if this is the decree of Heaven, then why bestow upon us the blessing of Yijulai'er?]

[—If His fondness is no more than a glance of pity, a distant portrayal of the void, then why let all beings root in the giant tree, let the leaves of civilization blossom, let the Rin Clan of Babel fall into the mortal world?]

[I am your child.]

[Yet no longer the speaking skeleton, the mumbling of the old world, make me eternally detest you.]

[No matter how many times… I will relentlessly, detest you.]

[May all you worship be destroyed.]

[May all you praise perish.]

[May all your ideals shatter.]

[May all you love die.]

[Until— the moment you completely sever the sword of creation.]

[Until— the moment the Number One Player truly dies.]
