Chapter 463 Savior, Nemesis of the End

Congratulations on successfully completing the dungeon!

[Instance Name: The People of Green Hills]

Number of participants in the instance: 2000

Number of survivors: 359

Su Ming returned to his familiar bedroom and brewed himself a cup of hand-drip coffee.

Step onto the balcony, sit at the small table, and slowly savor the rich aroma.

This dungeon takes a bit longer, and with him constantly trying various solutions using the Future Jade Disc, the time he spends will feel hundreds or even thousands of times longer than other players.

Once you've been doing something for a long time, suddenly stopping can feel strange.

Objectively speaking, the future power of the jade plate is undoubtedly a very good thing.

It can help him obtain a lot of information, thus enabling him to make fairly correct decisions.

A thousand pieces of gold cannot buy a cure for regret, but for him, this was not a difficult thing.

Instead, they took so much medicine that they were full, to the point that they felt nauseous and wanted to vomit.

A deep black gift box appeared in his palm, adorned with light and shadow dots, like stars in the night sky, constantly moving and changing.

A hint for a horror game appears.

【Chaotic Destiny Gift Box (Ten-Star): A gift box powerful enough to reverse one's fate. It will yield a unique and special item based on a complex interplay of factors, including the time of opening, the opener's environment, mental and physical state, and interpersonal relationships.】

Fate is chaos, like an incredibly complex black box, where countless factors interact and, after an indescribable process, produce complex results. Many things are not unobservable or unpredictable; numerous idioms describe this state, such as: good fortune never comes in pairs, misfortunes never come singly, a blessing in disguise, dying young, the effort you put in may not yield results, while the unintentional planting may result in a flourishing harvest…

However, this is true for normal people. The Future Jade Disc that Su Ming possesses is like a highly realistic black box mirror image, capable of predicting the outcome in advance. Sometimes he wonders if those legendary fortune tellers who are very accurate also have something similar to the Future Jade Disc. Of course, he has never actually come into contact with them and has only heard about it from others.

"I hope this Chaos Destiny Gift Box will bring me some surprises."

For him now, many of the props are no longer of much use.

In the future world of the Jade Disc, he tried opening the Chaotic Destiny Gift Box in different places, and the results varied greatly. For example, opening it directly would yield a ten-star item called [Decisiveness], which could strengthen one's resolve, enhance willpower, shield against interference, and help the holder make the right choices.

Later, he tried opening gift boxes in other places, but most of the items he obtained were not as good as the "Decisiveness" item. The most useless item was a "Sage's Hand-Drip Coffee Maker". Drinking a cup of coffee would put him into a sage state for up to 24 hours. He would not need to sleep, nor would he be disturbed by desires, and he could work with extremely high efficiency.

If some lucky person goes through a near-death experience to finally get such a high-end gift box, only to open it and find this thing inside, they would truly be heartbroken and could easily be selected as one of the top ten most tragic horror game players of the year.

"When you don't know how to choose, being decisive is actually a better option."

Time flows within the future jade disc, while the real world is paused. Therefore, he has countless opportunities to try, and theoretically, he can try indefinitely.

Through sheer volume of observations, he gradually discerned some patterns regarding this Chaos Gift Box. Performing certain "ritualistic" actions before opening the box imbued it with meaning could influence the items obtained, causing some bias. Opening the box directly yielded good results because it contained the concept of "beginning"—beginnings and endings are always considered special and meaningful.

"Opening this gift box when joining the roundtable is a locally optimal solution."

The Round Table is the most prestigious organization among the players, constantly preparing for the Day of No Return, representing humanity's future and hope. Besides that, he could think of a better outcome: opening the gift box at the start of the Day of No Return. However, that wouldn't happen quickly, with too many uncertainties. It was better to secure the benefits first.

Moreover, he was already quite satisfied with the prop that was presented when he joined the Round Table Conference. In the bedroom, Su Ming opened his eyes; in that instant, he had already seen many possible future trends and scenarios.

Three days later, the bronze identity plaque with the number "12" from the round table conference will be delivered to him.

Before that, he still needs to do some necessary preliminary work.

……

……

Above nothingness.

Around the simple bronze round table are twelve bronze thrones.

Eleven seats were already occupied, including the newly joined player number eleven, whose code name was "Strong Luck".

From seat number one, Wang Jizhen, bearing the codename "Human King," spoke up: "Now that it's confirmed, I'll invite that Miracle Master to join us and become number twelfth."

Originally, they didn't plan to invite the Miracle Master so soon, and wanted to observe further to see if there were better candidates. However, recently, through various means, they obtained information and confirmed that the Miracle Master was an indispensable force for them to get through the Day of No Return, and was of paramount importance.

Therefore, they unanimously agreed to give him the last spot.

A figure appeared on the last bronze throne.

All the players were observing Su Ming as he arrived, but he showed no surprise or curiosity. His reaction was quite calm, as if he had been here before.

As expected, this miracle worker, just as the information said, not only can make special delicacies, but also has some kind of precognitive ability. However, I didn't expect that he could even predict the situation of the round table meeting. It seems that this ability has a very high priority.

Of course, there is another possibility: that this kid is extremely shrewd and doesn't show his emotions.

Wang Jizhen led the applause: "Welcome Miracle Masters to the Roundtable! Let us work together for the future of humanity and to overcome the day of the end!"

clap clap-

A round of enthusiastic applause erupted.

Su Ming: "Thank you, thank you everyone. Let me open a gift box first."

Su Ming took out the Chaos Gift Box, placed it on the round table, and opened it.

A bright white light flew out of the gift box, hung above his head, and transformed into a white halo. Under the reflection of the halo, his whole person was imbued with a sense of divinity.

[Savior of the End - Nemesis of the End (??? Level): As the end is imminent, the Savior arrives at his loyal Round Table. His arrival brings clarity; his arrival brings hope. In the face of the end, the Savior is the embodiment of miracles; his gaze is the future.]

Bathed in white light, Su Ming's physical attributes began to improve rapidly, and his extraordinary abilities gradually transformed.

This savior's halo is helping him become stronger, enabling him to face the end in his strongest form!
