World’s End: My Keyword is One More Than Others

Disappointment came quickly, but it also left just as fast.

Du Ge quickly adjusted his mindset.

Pan-Universal Entertainment could suppress an entire civilization with just one spaceship, instantly projecting souls onto an Alien Star Battlefield in some unknown universe, at least a multiverse-level existence.

And he was just an ordinary person who had crossed over from Earth.

Even if all of Earth combined, they might not be able to defeat Bai Long and his battleship. Why did he think he could defeat such a colossal entity after just one year of crossing over?

Did he think he was the chosen one?

His previous thoughts were indeed a bit naive.

Yes!

It's only been a year.

In just one year, he had uncovered the secrets of the Alien Star Battlefield, achieving more than Qi Yuan Star had in two hundred years of exploration. What more could he ask for?

Life is long, take it slow.

Du Ge's restless mindset gradually calmed down. He considered himself an outsider, quietly observing the changes on the Alien Star Battlefield, trying to understand the combat methods of Pan-Universal Entertainment's people as much as possible.

Nan Youlong once said that the Alien Star Battlefield is a real world, which is why there are differences in the flow of time.

Bai Long's method of controlling Qi Yuan Star used something akin to technological means, but those from Pan-Universal Entertainment who occupied the bodies of Alien Star warriors adopted primitive combat methods.

Does this mean that Pan-Universal Entertainment can't physically enter the Alien Star Battlefield?

Or perhaps, the speed of getting there is too slow, forcing them to use this kind of long-distance soul projection, borrowing the bodies of natives to attack the opponent.

Cross-universe soul projection is indeed an advanced way of traveling.

It's way more impressive than any space jump or warp speed flight.

However, Bai Long's spaceship reached Qi Yuan Star, which means Pan-Universal Entertainment's headquarters must be close to Qi Yuan Star...

But soon, Du Ge laughed at his own thoughts. Even if it's close, it's still measured in cosmic distances. He can't even leave the planet right now, let alone reach Pan-Universal Entertainment's headquarters.

That said.

Du Ge knew he was gradually uncovering the true nature of Pan-Universal Entertainment.

An unknown enemy is terrifying, but once you understand the enemy's full picture, you can find their weaknesses and think of ways to counter them.

For example, now, when Pan-Universal Entertainment's people fight, besides using mental power, the skills they use are just the ones they've awakened. Pan-Universal Entertainment hasn't equipped them with any stronger skills, which is a good thing for him...

...

Due to the difference in time flow, the perspective of his split soul kept changing.

The seven demon kings of the demon realm and the remaining four ancient gods successively fell, their souls extracted, leaving behind soulless puppets.

Du Ge's split soul, hidden within the Sun God's body, was casually extracted by an Alien Star warrior and wrapped into his mental power along with countless souls from the abyss.

But because of the lingering connection, his link with the split soul wasn't severed, and he could still observe the outside world through it.

When that Alien Star warrior pulled Du Ge's split soul from the Sun God's head, Du Ge's heart leapt to his throat.

He had always guarded against his soul being extracted, using the ability to split his soul and forcibly change his appearance to that of Boderuna, then mixing the Sun God's power with the Dark God's power to obscure his face.

But that Alien Star warrior didn't even glance at Du Ge's soul before stuffing it into his mental power, not bothering to check it carefully.

Perhaps this guy really thought he was a remnant soul of the Sun God, or maybe he never considered that Du Ge would leave a split soul on the Alien Star Battlefield.

In any case, the split soul wasn't discovered, allowing Du Ge to breathe a sigh of relief.

Although the split soul was wrapped in mental power, it could still see the outside world, but it couldn't hear any sounds.

Next.

Holly united all the remaining Alien Star warriors, broke through the demon realm's barrier, and invaded the human world, starting a new round of slaughter and soul harvesting. The Forest God, God of the Prairie, moon elves, water elves, archangels, and the kings, officials, and public of various countries were all stripped of their souls.

Only particularly remote villages were spared.

Most important places, after they passed through, turned into ghostly realms, with bodies standing motionless everywhere...

Seeing this scene.

Du Ge hurriedly commanded Evan, who possessed his two thousand mental power, to lead his companions away from the important cities and hide in remote forests.

The mental power attached to Evan was split out using the lingering connection method. Du Ge didn't know if his mental power could exist independently after his split soul was captured, or if it would dissipate, but at this moment, preserving a spark was crucial. What if they survived?

...

Watching over a hundred Alien Star warriors clear the entire Alien Star Battlefield in a near-sweeping manner, Du Ge's face turned grim.

He thought of Luo Shuang, the imperial teacher, and the eldest senior brother and little junior sister from the first Alien Star Battlefield.

Those former comrades and friends were likely turned into corpses by the imperial teacher and senior brother they once trusted, their souls extracted!

What backup plans, what split souls, were useless against this kind of clearing method on the Alien Star Battlefield!

Du Ge's mind flashed back to the prophecy of the fall of a nation that the imperial teacher once mentioned. At the time, he thought the imperial teacher was referring to the competition among Alien Star warriors.

Now it seemed the imperial teacher meant the fall of a nation was due to the cleansing from Pan-Universal Entertainment!

The imperial teacher said that the hope of all beings rested on him, but facing such an overwhelmingly powerful existence, he couldn't even control his own fate, let alone save anyone else.

...

Days passed at a leisurely pace.

Twenty days after Du Ge's return, Pan-Universal Entertainment completed the cleansing of the Alien Star Battlefield. Except for a small number of people who were truly insignificant, the vast majority of people on the planet had their souls extracted.

Including the Pope, Grand Duke Lynch, and those who had fought alongside Du Ge, the planet was now completely reduced to a dead zone, with less than one percent of the population surviving.

But Pan-Universal Entertainment only took the souls, leaving the knowledge system on the planet intact. In a way, it preserved the seeds of civilization, perhaps to plant seeds for the next Alien Star Battlefield.

Thanks to prior precautions, Evan, carrying Du Ge's two thousand mental power, escaped Pan-Universal Entertainment's capture.

But as Pan-Universal Entertainment's people returned, Du Ge lost Evan's perspective. It seemed that the lingering connection must be combined with the soul-splitting ability to be used, and couldn't exist independently. It's unclear whether the two thousand mental power dissipated or remained within Evan.

The last perspective of Du Ge's split soul on the Alien Star Battlefield was of Holly and others gathering all the Alien Star warriors in Boderuna, then closing the gate to the outside world from within.

The bodies of Alien Star warriors indeed couldn't be taken back. If there's a chance to return to the Alien Star Battlefield, he must reclaim those bodies for his own use...

About two days later.

Du Ge once again had the perspective of a split soul, seeing all the souls being poured into an unknown container.

After that, his consciousness was cut off again.

When he reconnected with the split soul, his perspective returned to Boderuna, and the location was clearly the room where the Sun God once slept. He had fought here before and was very familiar with the layout.

Du Ge's split soul spread its divine sense, and the entire Boderuna was silent, without a sound.

But he could vaguely sense that outside the Sun Temple, angels were standing guard, yet they were motionless, as if frozen. Every blade of grass and tree outside the Sun Temple was restored one-to-one, and the body of the split soul was the Sun God he had defeated.

In reality, Du Ge swallowed lightly, moistening his dry throat. This was the Simulation Field.

This is the origin of the Simulation Field.

After the Alien Star Battlefield ends, Pan-Universal Entertainment harvests it and uses a large number of souls to create a real Simulation Field!

No wonder!

No wonder every person in the Simulation Field has their own thoughts and reacts to changes in the situation. It turns out the NPCs inside are living souls with their memories erased.

The reason his memory wasn't lost is likely due to his original body.

What kind of high-tech is this!

Playing with people's lives!

The Power of Poseidon he inherited in the second Simulation Field was indeed the real Power of Poseidon.

After all, his divine power is also bound to his soul.

The Simulation Field can be opened simultaneously in many places, which means Pan-Universal Entertainment at least controls the method of duplicating souls.

Or maybe not duplicating souls, but handling it in a way similar to online games!

An NPC can simultaneously interact with many players, and when players face the NPC, they think they're having a one-on-one conversation...

Pan-Universal Entertainment's technology is too advanced for Du Ge to comprehend, but this way of gaming is really too cruel, using different civilizations as the cost of the game. Such lawlessness, isn't there anyone to stop them?
