A different world game? A different world game!

Chapter 1101: The Fifth Apocalypse

"Ha! Hahahaha!"

The giant ape crouching on the ground let out a deafening laugh, its enormous hands pounding its crystal-covered chest with a dull thud, its tone revealing undisguised envy.

"That's wonderful! That stubborn rock... it can actually choose its own path?"

The tall, ethereal "female" being explained coldly, her voice remaining completely flat.

"'The Crystal Law' has its own unique rules. Those rules protected her last remaining self-will."

"Although she has been reshaped by the void, she... still retains the freedom to move. So this time she is very likely to stand on the opposite side of us."

Her words seemed to indicate that she was not surprised by the state of the "Crystal Law," and even carried a hint of...understanding?

“The enemy? Heh…heh heh heh…”

The worm-like splicer had let out a painful sneer, its massive mandibles opening and closing, dripping with slime. "You talk as if... you're already a loyal dog of the Void. Disgusting!"

"enough!"

The voice of the crown's existence resounded like a thunderclap, instantly suppressing all other noises.

His smooth, crystalline face turned to his agitated companions: "No world... can escape the final reckoning of the void!"

"Accelerate the process...let this world...be relieved as soon as possible! Reduce those...unnecessary painful struggles. In this way...we can...return to slumber sooner!"

His words carried a cruel logic that was almost "benevolent".

These words seem to have triggered some core instructions.

.

The worm-like splicer's massive body twisted violently, producing a sickeningly loud sound of bones grinding together.

"Hmph! I will... use my own methods... to hasten the end!"

Its countless limbs thrashed about wildly, and its massive body shot off like an arrow, leaving behind a trail of amethyst fragments and corrosive dust as it sped toward the Wailing Barrier, disappearing in the purple energy mist in the blink of an eye.

The tall, "female" void creation remained silent, only glancing one last time at the "crown" and the giant ape before its figure faded and disappeared silently, like ink dissolving in water, before choosing another direction.

Only the four-armed creature wearing a crown of bone spurs and the giant ape, a void creation crouching like a mountain, its laughter gradually fading, remained in place.

The giant ape turned its enormous head toward the "crown," grinned, and let out a deep, playful laugh from its mouth full of crystal fangs.

"Hehehe... It seems these... miserable 'kindred spirits'... don't recognize you, the great 'King of Resistance'?"

The crystal head containing the "crown" tilted slightly, its invisible "gaze" falling on the giant ape. The cold voice of consciousness carried a rare fluctuation, almost one that could be described as "reflection."

“Even the ‘Destroyer Ape’…you have been awakened again…it seems this world…is indeed troublesome and tenacious.”

He paused, his tone returning to absolute coldness: "However... the ending was already predetermined. Destruction... is its only... destiny."

After saying that, he casually swung one of his four arms in front of him.

Space was silently torn apart like fragile cloth, revealing the surging purple void behind it.

He stepped into it, and his figure vanished without a trace along with the spatial rift.

Only the behemoth known as the "Destruction Ape" remained crouched atop the shattered crystal remains.

He stared at the spot where the "crown" had vanished, his enormous purple eyes flashing with chaotic light, muttering to himself in a voice as rolling as a boulder.

“'King of Resistance'... Only in the most resilient, most troublesome worlds, worlds that even the Will of the Void finds 'trouble'... will the 'Head of the Apocalypse' be awakened. The forever... restless... tragic one.”

This was not the first time he had been awakened.

In his long and destructive career, which was shrouded in the void, he worked with different "apocalypses".

Compared to the rare appearance of the "King of Resistance".

He was quite a "regular".

I have some knowledge of the recently departed "Mourning Insect Queen" and "Crack Queen".

As for the "Crystal Law"... it was the first time he had seen it, but the fact that the other party could maintain a clear self-choice under the absolute will of the void itself meant that its rules were powerful and special.

"Five 'Apocalypses'..."

The Ape of Destruction's enormous hands unconsciously gripped the polluted earth beneath its feet, the hard frozen soil turning to dust between its fingers.

"What a... grand opening. This world... is definitely not simple."

A strange sense of excitement surged within his core, which was permeated with void energy, like magma.

He suddenly raised the giant hand that had just crushed the frozen soil and made a peculiar grasping motion towards the void in front of him.

With his five fingers spread wide, as if trying to seize the invisible flow of information—this was an instinctive means that the Void Will had given him to quickly understand and analyze the rules and current state of the new world during countless world destructions.

However, this time...

The giant hand clenched tightly!

There was nothing there.

There were no expected torrent of fragments of world laws, no wails or prayers from living beings, no trace of mountains and rivers, and even the progress of the void's erosion was unclear...

There was only a cold, rejecting sense of nothingness, tightly "shielded" by some powerful force of order.

"Um?!"

The Destruction Ape emitted a truly astonished nasal sound.

For the first time, his enormous eyes, burning with chaotic purple flames, widened in disbelief as he stared intently at his empty fist.

"Ha...hahahahaha!"

The astonishment lasted only a moment before being replaced by a louder, more unrestrained laugh, even one filled with indescribable joy.

The laughter reverberated through the viscous void energy around them, causing some small void creatures in the distance to cower in fear.

"Fun! So fun!"

The Destruction Ape thumped its chest, its crystal shell emitting a dull rumble, its laughter filled with the pure excitement of discovering a new toy.

"This is the first time! The first time a world... has been able to completely block out the 'sensory gift' of the void the moment I arrived! Amazing... truly amazing! This world... is truly wonderful!"

His massive head turned toward the second Wailing Barrier, and for the first time, something beyond the instinct for destruction ignited deep within his chaotic purple eyes.

It was not a desire for destruction, but a strong pursuit of the "unknown" and "possibilities".

"This means... there really might be... a world here that can survive?"

The Ape of Destruction's voice deepened, carrying an almost devout, heartfelt admiration.

"A world... capable of resisting the void torrent... even... surviving it?"

He slowly stood up, his massive body like a mountain rising from the ground, casting a huge shadow.

He gazed at the distant fortress that still shimmered with indomitable silver light under the purplish-black sky, feeling the indomitable torrent of will that countless living beings had gathered in the air.

"How wonderful..."

He murmured to himself, the complex emotions in his voice utterly out of place in this devastated land.

Anticipation, admiration, or even a hint of... blessing?

He has experienced countless destructions and witnessed the cries and ends of countless worlds.

But a world that could build such a solid "firewall" under the erosion of the void, and nurture such a tenacious will to resist... he had never encountered one like it before.

This made him genuinely happy.

……

The City of the Ring Tower, at the very heart of the Divine Kingdom.

Kana stood still like a sculpture, his silver-gray eyes teeming with a torrent of data.

The world host is closely connected to the magnificent building beneath its feet, the entire city, and even the cold creation rooted in the sea of ​​world consciousness in the distance.

At this moment, he was not only the leader of the Night's Watch, but also the cold arm of the world's will of Aegir.

The temporary authority granted to him before his slumber is now surging into his body through the bridge of the world host and the data-driven rule network.

The world's mainframe project always manages to provide unexpected and additional value in strange and unusual places, surprising people.

It allowed the chaotic world consciousness to condense into a clear "personality" like "Aigela".

In this way, he was able to make a conscious decision before falling into slumber, entrusting part of the world's authority to him, who was not the world's consciousness but could resonate with it.

This was by no means a complete transfer of power. Kana clearly perceived the boundaries involved.

He cannot manipulate the changes in the world's rules as easily as he would his own arm, cannot produce the Creation Stone, cannot conjure up the River of Life out of thin air, and cannot directly modify the world's underlying laws.

What he holds is more like a key.

A key that can draw upon the power of the "Light of Descent" divine kingdom nodes at a deeper level, perceive the pulse of world rules more keenly, and mobilize the massive computing power of the data network more precisely.

As the key turned, the silver radiance at the core of the divine kingdom burned brighter than ever before, as if the heart of the earthly divine kingdom were beating powerfully.

A sense of power, an overwhelming and irresistible sense of power.

Kana slightly raised his hand, and the silver light swirling around his fingertips was no longer just divine power, but also incorporated the weight and order of the world itself.

This means that he is no longer limited to intermediate divine power in the current world.

While it may not yet reach the level of powerful divine strength, Kana can absolutely suppress any mid-level divine power that dares to invade the world, relying on the world itself.

It should be noted that even a mid-level divine power in the entire astral plane already makes one a renowned and powerful being.

All those with immense divine power are rulers of forces at the star level.

And great gods are even fewer in number.

A cold smile curled at the corner of his lips.

A thought flashed through his divine mind like lightning—perhaps he could use this power, superimposed with the authority of the world, to give those void creatures an unexpected "surprise"...

Don't rush; you must deliver the final blow.

However, before this thought could fully unfold, an unprecedented, terrifying tremor, like millions of ice needles piercing the soul at the same time, suddenly descended.

This indicates an invasion by powerful creatures.

The slight smile on Kana's face froze instantly, and the data stream in his silver eyes flickered wildly, like a galaxy encountering a storm.

coming!

The overwhelming pressure, far exceeding that of a legendary being, slammed down on the world's fragile crystal walls like a tangible purple hammer.

Not one, not two...

Instead, there were five in total.

Five powerful, cold forces, carrying a destructive essence yet strangely containing a distorted "self," forcefully squeezed through the ultimate wound that stretched across the sky—the primordial void gate.

Like six depth charges dropped into a murky pond, they instantly stirred up the energy field of the entire world of Aegira.

"Apocalypse..."

Kana spoke silently, his silver-gray pupils suddenly contracting as if piercing through the barriers of space, fixing his gaze firmly on the utterly polluted, crystallized frozen land on the frosty border of the Taliel continent.

With the support of the world's authority and the absolute home advantage of the earthly divine kingdom, his "gaze" swept over the five descendants with an air of authority, like a god looking down at chess pieces on a chessboard.

The Void Will seemed completely unconcerned, or rather, these Apocalyptic beings were already accustomed to being "watched".

Kana "saw" the scene where the amethyst crown shattered the crystal with a single punch, causing four other powerful legends to appear, and he also "heard" their conversation filled with distortion, pain, indifference, and a hint of eerie clarity.

Every word, every mental fluctuation, was clearly perceived by his divine sense.

"King of Resistance", "Queen of Rifts", "Mother of Mourning", "Ape of Destruction", "Law of Crystal"...

The records and legends about the Void Apocalypse stored in the library of the scholar faction that studied the Void now transformed into living entities exuding an aura of destruction before their eyes.

The confirmation of the intelligence only added to the somber mood.

Kana's mind was like an alchemical array running at overclock, instantly drawing upon all the fragments of knowledge about the Apocalypse.

Without exception, these beings were the strongest at the pinnacle of power in the brilliant civilizations that were swallowed by the void in the past.

They were the backbone of the world, the guardians of civilization, yet in the end, amidst the world's lamentations, they were twisted and reshaped by the all-pervasive rules of destruction.

For these powerful level 15 beings standing before the divine gate, they could actually use various means to avoid being destroyed along with the world before its destruction.

But those who can reach such a level of power are all people with unwavering determination and will.

Very few people truly give up on the world and become wanderers.

Most of them will perish with the world, and will eventually be corrupted by the void during the world's destruction.

Of course, not everything will be contaminated.

And these are contaminated.

Their strong will was not completely extinguished by the long and desperate pollution.

Instead, they became the sharpest claws of the void, carefully sealed away, only to awaken in those toughest "hard bones" of the world.

Five!

Awaken five apocalypses at once!

This is by no means an ordinary "attention," but rather a kind of "recognition" of the Void Will for the stubborn resistance of the world of Aegira, a "highest honor" with an absolute desire for destruction.

Kanako was not happy about this recognition at all; it meant trouble.

However, it was within expectations, so it wasn't too surprising. It's just that Cana didn't expect that these apocalypses would be released so quickly.

According to the records, the Void usually only intervenes when it has invaded halfway through, and only after fierce resistance does it unleash its weather.

This is just the beginning.

These level 15 legendaries, possessing their own will, are a hundred times more terrifying than those war behemoths driven by the instinct of the void.

They understand tactics, they understand teamwork, and even... they understand how to manipulate people's hearts.

However, it is rare for an apocalypse to do such a thing.

"Humph."

It is the being known as the "Law of the Crystal".

Her voice was ethereal and beautiful, yet carried an ancient detachment, and her actions were completely unexpected—including by Kana.

She rejected the void's command.

After employing her, he defected without hesitation.

A Void Legend of Apocalypse caliber, upon his arrival, chose to betray the Void without hesitation, disappearing into a corner of the world of Aegira with an unclear stance.

The data stream in Kana's silver eyes suddenly stopped.

This is definitely a huge, unexpected variable.

An unknown force with terrifying power that exists outside the chessboard of both sides.

Its purpose, its stance, and its potential impact are not easy to define.

The only certainty is that the other party will not be on the side of the void.

"Hahahahaha!"

The mad laughter of the Destruction Ape reverberated through the void's energy.

He clenched his enormous hand into the void.

This is the power that the void bestows upon Apocalypse, and it is also the power of this void being itself.

He is seizing the world's information flow, instantly understanding the rules, status quo, and distribution of resistance forces in the current world as if flipping through a book.

However, this time...

The giant hand was clenched tightly, but it was empty.

For the first time, the giant eyes of the Destruction Ape, burning with chaotic purple flames, widened in astonishment, frozen on its ferocious face.

The moment of astonishment was replaced by a more unrestrained laugh, filled with pure joy of discovery.

Cana calmly "observed" all of this.

He blocked the other party's access to information. (End of Chapter)
