In the first few dozen seconds, the diffusion speed of the white light beam was still visible to the naked eye, roughly like the feeling of a tsunami approaching.
But a moment later, the white light "exploded" and swallowed up everything in the blink of an eye. The market was just the beginning.
Soon, the entire Eurasian continent, the entire planet, and even the entire solar system... were covered in white light.
This "data optical flow"-like substance begins to infect the entire universe like an infinitely proliferating virus.
And those people who were trapped in the light stream also lost consciousness for a period of time, until...
…………
Buzz
An uncomfortable buzzing sound entered my brain.
This sound does not seem to be coming from the outside world, but more like it is coming from within the body.
Feng Bujue, who regained consciousness amid the buzzing, immediately opened his eyes...
By this time, the white light had dissipated, and what he saw was the ruins of a city.
It is not the kind of city that was "just destroyed", but a more sinister environment that seems to have been covered in dust for many years, full of strange phenomena.
"Where is this?" He asked immediately.
The reason why he asked the question was because he saw Gu Chen beside him from the corner of his eye.
"Anyway, it's just that it's not City S." Gu Chen replied, "If it is...even if it turns into ashes, I can still recognize it from the foundation."
"So we were teleported somewhere else?" Feng Bujue asked again.
"It's not you who are moving." Suddenly, a third voice joined their conversation, "It's the entire universe..."
Feng Bujue and Gu Chen almost turned around when they heard the sound, because neither of them realized that someone was approaching before the words came out.
This means that the person who came suddenly appeared behind them at the moment they opened their mouths.
"So it's you..." When Gu Chen saw Vincent, his expression was a bit disgusting, but he was actually relieved in his heart.
"You guy..." Feng Bujue's first reaction when he saw this devil was to step forward and hit him with his fist, "Why didn't you come to save..."
Bang
His fist was caught by Vincent with one hand, and the force of his fist stirred up a burst of wind, swinging in all directions.
"Hey, hey... don't go too far, kid." Vincent still wore his inscrutable smile at all times, "The candidate game is over, and the seal has been broken by herself... Li Ruoyu...
She...has nothing to do with me anymore, so what obligation do I have to save her?"
"Tch..." Feng Bujue also knew that what the other party said was reasonable, he spat and retracted his fist.
"Ha..." Vincent smiled again when he saw this, and slowly lowered his hand and said, "In my opinion, you are the one who deserves to be beaten, right?" He paused for half a second, then continued, "Ruoyu
He died in front of you, but you couldn't do anything... On the contrary, she tried to create a chance for you to escape before she died..." He spread his hands, "To take a step back, the current 'destiny'
You must bear a large part of the responsibility for this mess, right?"
His words were very harsh, and it would not be an exaggeration to describe him as "vicious" when speaking to a person who had just lost his lover not long ago.
Of course, as a devil, it is only natural that he would say something a bit more exaggerated... The point is, what he said is something that Feng Bujue cannot refute.
"So..." After a few seconds of silence, Feng Bujue's tone returned to calmness, "...are you here now to hold me 'responsible'?"
"Hey hey hey..."
Just when Brother Jue asked that question, a familiar, obscene laughter reached everyone's ears.
Along with it, there were three figures.
These three people, like Vincent, were all dressed in black suits, trousers, and loose ties; they all exuded varying degrees of coercion... In the strange environment around them, they didn't seem to appear that way.
Violation.
"Hehe... If we were here to hold you accountable, how could you still be standing here talking and laughing with us right now?" Woody laughed a few times and responded to Brother Jue's question.
"Damn..." For a second, Feng Bujue didn't say anything, but Gu Chen put one hand on his forehead and cursed.
He hadn't been so simple and direct in many years, but now he really couldn't hold it back.
"Hey hey hey...what's wrong? Did your mood get worse when you saw us?" Woody asked maliciously.
"That's right..." Gu Chen responded with a long voice, "Every time I see you guys together, it basically means that humanity is about to be destroyed... Can I feel good?"
This is the truth. The last time he saw Vincent, Woody, Simon, and Sid gathered together, it was at a pace that was close to the end of the world.
"If you two want to catch up on old times, go get a room and talk." A second later, Simon interrupted them and said, "We don't have that time now, so hurry up and get to the point."
"Ah... then let me explain." Vincent was about to take over.
"Wait a minute...hehehehe..." Unexpectedly, Woody said, "Why are you the one who said it? Can't I do it for you?"
"They say you have to seize the time. It's just a matter of how little time you spend laughing obscenely adds up." Vincent continued.
"Hmm... that makes sense..." Woody actually agreed, "Hey... then please."
"Feng Bujue." The next second, Vincent called Brother Jue, "Listen carefully. What follows is very important to you."
"Oh." Brother Jue just looked at him indifferently and responded casually.
Vincent shrugged and continued: "First of all, let's explain the general situation..." He paused, "This 'phenomenon' before you can be called 'dimensional erosion', which is a kind of damage to the entire
It is an extremely serious change in the universe. If we want to compare it... it is hundreds of millions of times more serious than a trivial event like the explosion of the earth."
"Of course she can do it." Vincent said, "She is a 'hub of the multiverse'. Even before she has obtained the Stick of Truth, she can do what you see at any time as long as she is willing.
...Invade and control an individual with low mental strength in this dimension, and make molecular-level adjustments to them...
"What's even more troublesome is that since she comes from other parallel universes, on our side, any of her actions will not produce 'karma', that is to say... no matter what she does, it will not be affected by the 'will of the universe'
The backlash.”
"And as the terminal executors of this will... that is, the grassroots civil servants in the God Realm, we cannot directly interfere with her without receiving specific orders."
"Direct is not possible, what about indirect?" Gu Chen heard some mystery from the other party's topic and took advantage of the situation to ask.
"Ha..." Vincent smiled, "Didn't you also see the bodies of those brainwashed employees in the Dream Company building? This is our indirect way of stopping her. It's a pity..." He curled his lips and said nothing.
Finish what you said.
"So you guys just watched her launch the 'Dimension Erosion'?" Feng Bujue asked again at this time.
"You obviously have a misunderstanding about our operating system." Vincent continued, "You know... whether it's a devil or an angel, we are not the kind of creatures you can call us with just a phone call. In most cases
We will not come to the human world in this 'unrestricted posture'... If you think that because we can move instantly, we can prevent everything that should be prevented... That is a big mistake.
wrong."
"If we could do that, the world would be much cleaner." Simon answered angrily from the side. From the tone of his voice, he really wished that could be done.
Feng Bujue thought for a while and then said: "Okay... now that things have happened, how do you plan to stop 'destiny'?"
"Haha... we can't stop her." Vincent smiled, "After getting the stick of truth, she is the closest to a 'god'. We devils, fallen angels and so on...
...No matter how strong she is, her positioning is still far behind her. Even if we get in front of her, she can blow us into particles with just a snap of her fingers.
"In fact... we are able to come here at this moment because the 'dimensional erosion' has affected heaven and hell... many of the bosses who are higher than us have already gone to die... so we can not
In a restricted state, he ran to the human world and acted as he pleased. Otherwise... Woody would still be playing board games with the Mormons in heaven because of his previous crimes."
At this point, Vincent raised his head and continued in a sad tone: "Sigh... In short, small characters like us are no longer factors that the current 'destiny' will care about; at this stage... she
She is busy integrating the 'Thriller Paradise Dimension' with our 'realistic dimension'. Once the two universes are completely integrated, she will become the new supreme god of this universe; all the original rules will be broken,'
Destiny will serve as the new god to open a new history and define a new order..."
"Hehehe..." Hearing this, Woody smiled and interjected, "Although I'm a little bit unwilling to be tricked by her...but if she really becomes a 'god' in the end, I might also be able to become a 'new universe'
'He is a key figure in some religious classics... Hehehehe..."
"If there really was such a book, your ending in the book would also be 'Feng Bujue broke his glasses and died'." Feng Bujue continued to look at Woody with indifferent eyes and continued.
"Hehe... don't worry." Woody changed the subject after hearing this, "Although 'we' can't stop her, you can."
As soon as these words came out, Feng Bujue instantly realized something, and his expression... also changed slightly.
"That's right." Vincent also looked at Brother Jue and continued, "You and 'Destiny' come from the same universe. Even if she masters the stick of truth, it will not make any difference to you; she can control it.
The entire universe cannot control you...because no matter what she becomes, from the perspective of the multiverse, you two are the same level."
"It's just...the positioning is the same, but the power is very different." At this time, Simon poured a basin of cold water on the side.
"Then... give me your power." Feng Bujue's reaction was quick. He immediately made an extremely unreasonable yet extremely reasonable request.
"Haha... It seems that you already understand the purpose of our coming here." Vincent smiled, "It's a pity... your physique is not suitable to accept the power of this universe, even if the power injected into your body will not make you
Even if your body explodes and you die, you won't be able to use it... This was the case when Qi Zhi gave you spiritual power. Human power will become a burden to you. If the power of the few of us is given to you... you will die.
No doubt."
Speaking of this, he paused, and a second before Feng Bujue started to complain about him, he said "but"...
"But... since you won the 'Candidate Game', things have turned around." Vincent continued, "Based on the fact that the chosen one can obtain a special physique that can control the two opposing forces of holy power and magic at the same time.
'This..." He said, then turned to look at his disciple Sid, "We can let Sid, a fallen angel who possesses both 'holy power' and 'magic power', give you some power."
"That's not right." Feng Bujue replied immediately, "When the results of the game were announced, Michael told me that because I am not from this universe, the 'Double Power Blessing' cannot be implemented."
"Hehehe... It was really not possible at that time, but now..." At this moment, Woody actually smiled, raised his hand, and fired a "finger bomb" at Feng Bujue.
Even though he just flicked his finger, the air he popped out was as powerful as a shotgun. From a distance of just a few meters, it was undoubtedly fatal to ordinary people.
Bang
Facing the sudden attack, Feng Bujue instinctively crossed his hands in front of him to block it.
As a result... after the blow, he was not injured at all.
"Is this the effect of dimensional fusion?" After a breath, Feng Bujue put down his blocking posture and asked directly.
It was obvious that he had already made some assumptions about the situation at hand.
"You should have noticed when you punched Vincent." Gu Chen must have discovered this at that time, otherwise he would not have been indifferent to Woody's finger.
"That's just one of the reasons." Vincent replied, "Although dimensional fusion allows you to gain part of your abilities in the game world, it only strengthens your physical strength so that you can increase your strength in terms of quantity.
Just carrying more energy cannot qualitatively change the physique of your 'parallel universe life'; the real key reason is... at this moment, because some high-ranking beings have been killed by 'fate', then
Coupled with the chaos caused by the overlap of the two dimensions, some functions of the will of the universe have been paralyzed... leaving us with loopholes to exploit."
"Hehehe... Of course, even if there is that kind of loophole that can be exploited, only Sid, a 'special case', can give you power." Woody added, "Because only he has the 'balanced' Holy and Demonic Doubles in his body.
If the rest of us give you the power of demons, it will break this balance, and that may... turn you into some kind of product of the failed fusion technique of the Medama people."
"I see... Is this the meaning of the 'two rewards' after winning the candidate game..." Feng Bujue thought about something after hearing this, "Even if the winner is not me,
The winner who gets 'Wuye' and 'Double Strength' can also deal with various situations including the current crisis."
"Humph..." Simon continued with his "unhappy" attitude, "You are not the winner. Why would there be so much trouble?"
"Okay, okay..." Vincent quickly jumped out to be the peacemaker, "It's useless to talk about that kind of hypothesis. In short... it's either to fulfill the obligations of the candidate or to make up for the mistake of being used by 'destiny'.
...Even if it's just for personal revenge, Feng Bujue..." He looked at Brother Jue again, looked directly into his eyes and said, "You shouldn't refuse our proposal, right?"
"What do you think?" Feng Bujue responded coldly without even thinking about it.
"Ha... I really can't do anything to you." Vincent spread his hands again, put on the "public relations tone" of the devil and the human being, and continued, "I understand... I understand... After the matter is completed,
We can negotiate a few more deals with you and satisfy some of your wishes..." He paused for a second, "That's the end of the promises I can make."
"Okay." So Feng Bujue agreed to the condition.
"Then..." Vincent turned around and said to Sid, "Next, I'll leave this place to you."
"Okay, teacher." Sid, who had been doing soy sauce there for a long time, seemed to be a little distracted. When Vincent called him, he immediately showed his harmless smile and responded.
"Old Gu." Vincent then said to Gu Chen, "Would you like to go out with us for some activities? Before humans are wiped out by monsters... let's try our best to leave some incense in the human world."
"Ah... I have also contacted my subordinates." Gu Chen said, then took out a mobile phone from his jacket pocket, raised it to the height of his own eyes, and pointed the screen towards Vincent and the others.
, "Let's go to these coordinates first, gather some people, and exchange some information."
"Ho~" Seeing this, Woody pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said with a smile, "Hehehehe... It seems that the level of spiritual science in the human world has made a big leap in these years. Now every area between the two universes has
It has been torn apart, crushed to pieces, and put back together piece by piece...and yet you can actually use physical equipment to establish remote communication."
"Haha..." Gu Chen sneered, "Don't look at who has been leading Jiuke these years. Do you know that I didn't develop a drilling machine that can dig to hell to save your face?"
"Go quickly." At this moment, Simon said in his "I really dislike you" tone, "I won't go with you."
"Hey, hey...what are you doing again?" Vincent looked at him blankly and said jokingly, "We would be scared without you."
"Stay away from me..." Simon rolled his eyes and squinted at Vincent, "Stay somewhere cool."
"Okay." Vincent shrugged and smiled, "Anyway, in a while...everywhere will be cooler than here."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a "boom" in the distance! The whole earth shook several times like an earthquake.
At the place where the sound came from, the ground surface suddenly cracked, leaving a gap more than a hundred meters long. From the gap, the unique heat flow and fire of magma also rushed out.
Immediately afterwards, a deep roar was heard, roaring from the ground; the sound of some giant creature climbing on the rock was also heard...
