Chapter 4 The Evil of This World

My name is Patient Zero,

I took the system and ran to the world of Xingyue.

69999:59:59

In order to avoid being emptied by the recycle bin, I started a new game using that stupid half-broken system.

After a weird feeling like motion sickness, I realized that I was no longer in the recycling bin.

Looking around, it seems like I'm in space. No matter up, down, left, or right, there are stars that are bright but out of reach, and I'm standing here.

Even though there was nothing around me, my feet still felt like they were on solid ground. I seemed to be able to move forward if I tried to take a step, but since there was no reference object, I couldn't be sure whether I was actually moving.

So, how to start?

As if sensing my thoughts, a little blue light suddenly appeared in the void in front of me, and in the next moment it expanded into a huge sphere as tall as a person.

When I subconsciously took a step back, several golden light spots appeared on the blue ball, and they immediately began to draw a certain pattern quickly, getting faster and faster as the pattern became more complex.

Well, looking at the outline, it looks like...a world map?

Eventually, the ball turned into a globe with golden lines forming the outlines of ocean continents and countries, and it was shining brightly before I was ready to complain about it being too simplistic.

The next moment, it turned into the real Earth, whether it was the oceans, continents or clouds in the sky, they were all just like what we had seen on TV or what had been photographed by satellites or astronauts in space.

Of course, in the real world, there won’t be someone as big as the earth standing here looking at it.

After the formation of this miniature Earth, a large number of densely packed icy blue lines began to spread far away from the center around it. Finally, after reaching a certain distance, they began to revolve around the miniature Earth, constructing a structure without intertwining with each other.

It is a hollow structure in the shape of a flat cylinder, and the little earth and I are in the middle of this empty space.

Anyway, I finally have a sense of space... So this means I can still expand?

[Tip: The world is generated]

A familiar mechanical female voice sounded, and at the same time, a transparent rectangular button made of ice and amber appeared out of thin air on the front of the mini earth. The background pattern on it was a series of decreasing red numbers.

And the four murderous words on the button are——

The end is coming!

How stupid! What kind of mood do people play this?

"Stupid Gaia system! Come out!" After looking around and failing to find the red square, I shouted to the mini-Earth.

[I'm not stupid...] The system's little boy-like voice sounded. At the same time, the surface of the miniature Earth began to ripple like water waves, and then the red cube emerged from the middle of the Pacific Ocean: [Also, my name is

Gaia, the system is a classification. You wouldn’t call others ‘so-and-so humans’ before, right?】

Hmm...then according to this logic, it should be said like this?

"Stupid system!" I said, glaring at it.

[Woooooooo...] Gaia, who discovered that she had dug a hole to bury herself, began to cry.

"Stop whining and tell me how to collect those elements." I pointed at the button that I could barely see directly: "And what's that countdown?"

[That, that is the remaining time from this moment to the destruction of this world. It is currently running according to its own trajectory. Pressing that button means starting to intervene. At this time, the doomsday element should have been put in, but now it is completely absent and can only be used.

The source code is simulated] The red cube floated to the side of the stupid button, shaking and saying: [Alaya, what do you want? Bacteria, viruses, parasites? Or monsters, crustal movement or aliens?]

[Tip: The greater the initial power of the doomsday element, the more source code is needed to simulate it.] The mechanical female voice prompts: [It is recommended to choose the plague type and collect points to evolve its power during the game.]

"Well... wait a minute, let me see how the world will be destroyed according to its original trajectory?" I stared at the huge globe.

Only when you have goals can you act in a targeted manner.

[Well, let’s see...the doomsday element of this world is called ‘the evil of this world’]

Oh, it turns out to be - wait a minute!

Before I could complain, the system cube had floated to the location of East Asia on the globe, touched the arch-shaped islands there with one corner, and a pure white screen unfolded. However, before the screen was fully unfolded, a brilliant golden light erupted.

And out.

"Oath—and the Sword of Victory!"

69998:54:33

Yangtze River Knights, 1oop gymnasts, Popsicles, 3D Sea Devils, Three Kings Debate.

After hearing the sound of curry sticks, I recalled a lot of keywords in this world almost instantly, and I felt that there were many unreliable ones.

Although I was completely sure which world this was, I still finished reading the content displayed on the screen.

The bright golden light destroyed a cup, and then a "hole" opened in the sky. Countless things like black mudslides fell from the sky, destroying everything in contact, and eventually the entire city was turned into a sea of ​​fire.

Unfortunately, apart from the cold female voice at the beginning, there are no other images or voices in this video.

It’s the fourth war, yes, but——

"Can such a small fire destroy the world?" I turned to look at the system cube.

[That...actually...] The red square hesitated and spun in place.

Do you want to spiral into heaven?

[Tip: The size of the game world is the same as the area occupied by Fuyuki City] A female voice prompt appears at the right time.

…So such a big ball is 99% false advertising?

[Anyway, in short, as long as it doesn't leak out before the countdown ends...] The system brat was probably annoyed by me, so he hurriedly changed the subject: [Avoid destroying the Holy Grail incident, or you can simply obtain the Holy Grail.

In the end we can all get the 'evil in this world']

"Huh? I thought I could only intervene through temporary doomsday elements, but it sounds like I can end it personally?" I decided to let him go for the time being: "In what form?"

[Whoosh, you know the Vortex of Roots, right?] The system felt inexplicably proud.

According to the setting of the Xingyue World, outside it, there is something called the "Root Vortex".

It is the ultimate goal that all magicians dream of, and it is also a dream place that humans cannot reach in their lifetime.

When human beings go to the vortex of the source, they will master the fundamental cause and effect and laws of everything in the world.

Although I don’t know what the main world of Xingyue looks like, as the creator of this temporary world, isn’t that place——

[This is where we are~so you can be summoned as a heroic spirit~]

69987:43:o2

I read the original novel, animation, and related encyclopedias and derivative materials.

After all, it's a long time ago and it's almost impossible to remember the order of things.

What's more, I have to record the key points of important events.

Looking at all the works in which the protagonist can achieve the effect of "precognition" due to conditions such as "time travel", "rebirth" and "reincarnation", one choice cannot be avoided.

Whether to comply with the original plot development or to destroy the original plot development, the former can maintain the prophet's sense of superiority and only take action at critical moments, while the latter needs to face the "inhibitory force" that wants to get the plot back on track.

Regardless of whether the nature of this inhibitory force is the author's lack of writing power or the editor's forced intervention, its strength determines what the protagonist can achieve.

For example, "It is known that Cao Cao in a certain Three Kingdoms world was stabbed to death by Dong Zhuoxian when he offered a seven-star sword. Please ask for the distribution of power in that world in 215 AD."

In a world with strong restraint, it is likely that a monarch who also follows the same hegemony will replace him, so the distribution of power does not change.

The world with weak inhibitions has probably been unified for a long time, and the technological tree has climbed so high that maybe even America has appeared.

And since I am now in the Vortex of Roots, the two major inhibitory forces of the Moon World [Alaya] and [Gaia]—yes, it is me and the stupid system. Not only do we have no intention of maintaining the plot, but we also

Prepare to get rid of the evil in this world.

Find the area of ​​the psychological shadow of this world.

"Then, let's get started."

I poked the "Doomsday" button with great disgust, and it rolled and turned into a larger light screen.

[Tip: Please select the doomsday element.] A female voice will appear at the right time.

There is no choice at all, the other options are all gibberish, only "Generate using source code" is on.

"Generate a plague type, oh, by the way, it needs to be good-looking."

Although the basic biological knowledge has been returned to the teacher, I still remember that the appearance of bacteria and viruses is not very beautiful.

The light screen began to rotate rapidly, and at the same time, three rings of light appeared around it, rotating parallel and up and down. Finally, those rings suddenly shrank and exploded into a ball of white light, and the light screen that slowly stopped appeared.

Then a pattern appeared.

It was a snake-like creature with a body as transparent as blue crystal, with long whiskers, dorsal fins and tail fins.

[Tip: The doomsday element is generated successfully and you get a specific parasite: Mana Floating Dragon]

69985:25:o7

In short, since there is still so much time, let's throw away the doomsday elements first and create a home court, although this home court is slightly smaller.

I looked at the huge false advertising earth again, sighed and raised my hand to pop the play button red balloon floating over Fuyuki, Japan.

[Tip: ‘pax-2o1’ has infected the first human in Japan. Since it is in an unstable period, please use DNA points to evolve it as soon as possible to infect more people. 】

Ah, I forgot to change the name, so I kept the code name from last time.

"Speaking of which, who is this beep? Do you have any self-awareness?"

I looked at a red dot appearing on the map and asked the system. I had an inexplicable feeling that it was more reliable than the stupid system.

[That is just a feedback prompt of world information, there will be no self-awareness. 】

The little boy's voice sounded a little excited. Is someone so happy playing a game?

[Tip: Japan is a country with advanced and high-quality medical equipment, you must evolve——]

The explanation of the mechanical female voice suddenly stopped and began to report an error.

[Tip: ‘pax-2o1’ lost control and an error occurred]

The world map suddenly zoomed in, which made me feel dizzy, and finally stopped at the city-level map scale.

This is a city divided into two halves by a river. On the left are villages and towns with a slightly rural atmosphere, while on the right are modern dense high-rise buildings.

The flashing red dot on the map is located on the left bank of the river, close to the hill, and you can vaguely see a rather small mansion.

"Ah, speaking of it, even if it is a specific type, it is still a parasite, right? That's understandable." After I looked through the information and found out whose mansion it was, I couldn't help but roll my eyes.

[Tip: An error occurred]

The prompt tone repeated several more times, and then a video window popped up directly on the globe.

"【あんたは......だれ?】"

The picture shows a bald little old man with skinny limbs, sunken eye sockets and a hunchback.

Well, I have to say that when a two-dimensional character is transformed into a three-dimensional one, even if it is not a realistic style, it will still be very recognizable. This real-life old man is so similar to the original version of Lord Chong that I can't help but think of the live-action version I have seen before.

Bald Strong.

He was wearing an old cyan and dark gray kimono, holding a wooden cane in one hand and holding something in the other hand while taking a selfie.

What the hell are you taking selfies? We don’t even have smartphones in this era. We have clearly caught the source of infection we threw away and are observing it.

Tsk, if I had used bacteria or viruses this time, how could I have been caught?

"Stupid system, turn on the synchronous translation function for me."

[I don’t have that kind of function...and I’m not stupid...]

"[hahahahahahaha!]"

Old man, no, Matou Zangyan seemed to have discovered something, and suddenly laughed wildly, which did not need to be translated.

"【こんげん,こんげん...】"

[Hint: ‘Root’] Mechanical female voice translation.

There was a bang and the video went completely black.

But there were still unpleasant sounds coming, so I raised my hand and closed the window.

"He was the first human being infected? You stupid system! The old man himself is a bug, okay!"

[The first person to be infected should be the 'Patient Zero' who is most suitable for spreading the source of infection in that world...I'm not stupid...]

"It feels really strange to hear my own name at this time."

I shook my head and reached out to knock on the miniature earth,

"Hey, the reminder lady? Don't worry about the system error, just throw another one away."

[Tip: Without using DNA points, ‘pax-2o1’ autonomously mutated into the ‘expanded magic circuit’ symptom. 】

[Tip: Without using DNA points, ‘pax-2o1’ autonomously mutated into the symptom of ‘modifying magic attributes’. 】

[Tip: Without using DNA points, ‘pax-2o1’ autonomously mutated and developed the symptom of ‘self-generated magic power’. 】

...It’s weird that it mutates autonomously!
