Ironclad, but the dungeon is in Hell difficulty.

Even knowing it would be very difficult, Yu Tianyi was still slightly disappointed after hearing the news.

After the erosion of the rift was dismantled and the star core was contained by the immortal ship, Yu Tianyi once again devoted his energy to optimizing the device that killed Suiyang.

Finally, a year after the events began, at the point when the prologue started, he used the Shadow of Destruction as quickly as possible, and then saw the surrounding environment gradually fade and disappear.

Everything before my eyes seemed to become a blurry reflection in the water amidst the splashing ripples, gradually revealing the real environment.

.......]

[Hidden Achievement in "The Fall of Luofu": Kill Huanlong (Completed), the share of 'Blade of Purification' and 'Regret of Infinite Illusions' becomes 0%]

"Huanlong, my god."

When he saw the last notification flash by, Yu Tianyi rubbed his eyes in disbelief. After confirming that he hadn't misread it, he couldn't help but let out a word of praise.

As expected of the main storyline's big boss, Huanlong's face, which was originally filled with rage, now appeared somewhat handsome.

Without hesitation, I selected the two items that had already dropped to 0%.

After confirmation, the cheat interface flashed a few golden lights, as if celebrating his completion of this chapter, and several large golden characters were imprinted in the center of Tianyi's vision.

[Chapter Completed]

After several seconds, it slowly disappeared, revealing the cover of the chapter "The Fall of Luofu". The burning immortal ship disappeared, replaced by a scene of him drawing his bow and nocking an arrow, with the phantom of the Emperor's Bow reappearing behind him, shooting an arrow at Huanlong.

"It was quite a grand affair."

Curious, Yu Tianyi clicked on the completed cover, and some information immediately came to mind.

The general idea is that he can freely enter this chapter without restrictions, but he will no longer receive settlement rewards, and there will be no more rewards for killing enemies.

Furthermore, he is not locked onto a particular point; in simpler terms, even if he has left, the chapter will continue to evolve normally.

"It simply means it has become a parallel universe."

He didn't care about not being able to obtain any output. After all, this was a resource from an entire parallel universe. In addition, as the person who saved Luo Fu from the fall, Yu Tianyi was sure that he wouldn't lack any regular resources.

However, since he cannot bring his skills out of the real world, the only thing Yu Tianyi can think of right now is to ensure that his forging skills will continue to improve.

And some knowledge that he couldn't obtain in reality, such as the technology of the Mirror-Changing Screen that he acquired in the prologue.

It's roughly equivalent to 700 to 800 years in the present, and many things have changed since then.

For example, in reality, Luofu still uses more golden figures to handle operations such as food delivery and shipping. However, more than 700 years later, with the development of the mechanical bird technology, their functions in this regard were gradually replaced, eventually leading to the disappearance of the 'golden figures' in Golden Figure Alley.

These logistics robots not only possess relatively complete intelligence and are incredibly fast, but they can also perform many functions such as taking photos and delivering goods, which has led to their rapid expansion.

The number of flying machines in Xingchahai surged from 6,400 to over 70,000, while in Changletian, a full 100,000 flying machines continuously maintained the city's infrastructure.

These are all valuable intangible assets, but Yu Tianyi doesn't have much time or inclination to explore them right now.

His gaze had now shifted to the latest chapter, which had changed from black and white to color and was now accessible.

The Locust Plague Apocalypse

Below the four large characters, countless swarms of insects danced in the starry sky. Some were only the size of dust, while others were as huge as galaxies, their mouths wide open as if they were emitting shrieks.

Behind this image, in the shadows, a terrifying shadow that covers the entire background reveals tentacles large enough to measure the Milky Way.

Just looking at the cover, Yu Tianyi could feel the overwhelming sense of despair. The cover seemed to have come to life, making him feel a little suffocated.

"Just a shadow was enough to instill a deep sense of fear in me, and produce symptoms similar to inhaling 'wolf poison'."

Just how powerful was the locust plague ancestor in this chapter?

After closing the interface, Yu Tianyi subconsciously took a few deep breaths before he came to his senses and his vision returned to focus.

Can I really complete the main quest under the control of such a being?

The thought involuntarily flashed through his mind. Helplessly, Yu Tianyi really couldn't think of how to save a universe that had already fallen into apocalypse under the manipulation of the Star God.

"Sigh, when I read those novels and fantasy dramas, I always feel that those dramas give the protagonists too much of a cheat code. When it comes to my own life, I really hope that the cheat code is as big as possible."

If Yu Tianyi possessed the power of the Star God to create worlds and erase reality, he felt that this chapter might not be without hope.

Yinzhi hasn't arrived yet, but I'm already missing Ruan Mei.

Why is there still one month until January 1.6th?!

Volume Two: Locust Plague and Doomsday

前言

"In the ancient calendar (Amber Calendar) 1387, the locust Taizyuros ascended to the position of 'god,' and within a month, it had devoured hundreds of millions of light-years. The gods joined forces to fight it, and were defeated." —Xianzhou, *Universal Compendium*

At the beginning of the 1120th year of the Cataclysmic Calendar, the resistance forces' defenses in the Kelsaran star cluster were ambushed by locust envoys, causing several lines of defense to collapse instantly and threatening the Sarginshadu star system.

Under the super apocalypse that swept across the entire galaxy, the power of the locust was undeniable.

What kind of ripples will the changes brought about by Tianyi's series of actions in reality?

Chapter 73 Sea of ​​Zerg

Countless objects streaked across the atmosphere, like a meteor shower in broad daylight. Swarms of insects almost blotted out the sky, while in the far reaches of the cosmos, giant true worms, comparable in size to planets, were emitting silent hisses.

This is the apocalyptic scene that Yu Tianyi saw when he first entered the locust plague's doomsday phase.

"In the ancient calendar (Amber Calendar) 1387, the locust Taizyuros ascended to the position of 'god,' and within a month, it had devoured hundreds of millions of light-years. The gods joined forces to fight it, and were defeated." —Xianzhou, *Universal Compendium*

At the beginning of the 1120th year of the Cataclysmic Calendar, the resistance forces' defenses in the Kelsaran star cluster were ambushed by locust envoys, causing several lines of defense to collapse instantly and threatening the Sarginshadu star system.

"It looks like this is the defense line of a star system outside the Sajinshadu star system."

Having already learned the general situation from the chapter synopsis, Yu Tianyi wasn't too surprised, only shocked by the scene before him.

Even though he had fought alongside the Cloud Cavalry for many years, he had never seen such a terrifying scene. After all, although locust plagues were still terrible in reality, they could not expand due to the temporary death of the Insect King.

Even if there were some misfortunes, they were incomparable to the scene before us.

Since it was his first time entering, Yu Tianyi did not bring Fu Xuan and Qing Que with him, intending to gather information on his own first.

boom! boom! boom!

A terrifying roar traveled through the air to Tianyi's ears, and then the entire surface of the planet trembled. He then saw countless blue beams of light pierce the sky, tearing countless gaps in the swarm of insects that covered the heavens.

"This is a star-destroying weapon, and judging by its power, it is obviously far more terrifying than Zhu Ming's Zhu Ming Fire."

Yu Tianyi deployed his domain to stabilize the surrounding space, easily suppressing the aftershocks of the tremor. He looked at the terrifying pillars of light that seemed to reach the sky and connect with the earth with some amazement.

This is not surprising, after all, in such a world, if weapons of mass destruction were not developed, the resistance would probably have been overwhelmed by endless locust plagues long ago, and could not have lasted for hundreds of thousands of years.

"That being said, it seems like there's no way I have a place in this kind of battle."

After staring at the beams of light for a dozen seconds, he suddenly realized his original purpose for entering the event.

"Moreover, I can't find anyone to obtain intelligence. Judging from the current situation, the planet I am on has been transformed into a war fortress."

Use these planets to construct a vast defensive line across the starry sky to block the Zerg swarm's attack.

However, even though the resistance forces seem to have the upper hand at present, Yu Tianyi is not so optimistic, since the intelligence report on the incident states that the Locust Commander was involved in this raid.

In reality, the Insect King Commander is a massive, deep blue giant insect, as large as a planet—the Star-Shattering King Insect Skarakabaz.

It is a terrifying being that inherited the jaws of the Insect King, capable of emitting death rays that can shatter celestial bodies, using the shattered stars as a breeding ground for itself.

In the event of the locust plague apocalypse, Yu Tianyi could hardly imagine how powerful the Locust Commander, who had already ruled over all realms, would be.

As expected, before Yu Tianyi could ponder for long, as a strange fluctuation gradually dissipated, he suddenly felt that everything around him had changed.

He clenched his fist and slammed it down. The young insect that suddenly appeared at his feet was easily pierced through the head. After struggling weakly for a few moments, it fell to the ground.

[Slay a Silver Insect Larva. A strange force attempts to burrow into your body, but is stopped by your talent... Gain a wisp of the 'Reproduction' destiny, and 1 Imaginary Energy]

"This is......"

As soon as he killed the insect, the splattered blood and limbs split into complete larvae under Yu Tianyi's horrified gaze.

"The power of 'reproduction' can conceptually transform any being that has behaviors such as division, proliferation, and expansion into a vermin."

In other words, the fluctuation we just experienced was the force that suppressed this conceptual erosion.

The only one capable of opposing a 'god' is another 'god', which must also be the power of a certain star god.

Yu Tianyi looked at the ground; nothing had changed yet, which meant the power of 'breeding' hadn't fully descended.

Otherwise, even cell division would be considered a form of reproduction, and a single individual could 'reproduce' trillions of insect swarms. This is why the real-world Insect King was able to spread across two-thirds of the world's inhabited areas in a very short time along with the Gluttonous Insect King.

In this event, the Insect Emperor, who already controls more than 90% of the universe, has likely increased his own power to a terrifying level.

Knowing this, Yu Tianyi had no intention of continuing to fight these insect swarms; they would only multiply with each kill.

"But I'm on the surface of this planet now. How am I supposed to find the people operating these planet-destroying beams? Or is this planet just an automated system controlled by intelligent modules?"

Since the concept of 'breeding' doesn't apply to living or inanimate objects, theoretically, intelligent AI is definitely more cost-effective.

However, Yu Tianyi currently knows nothing about this chapter except for the opening introduction. All the information he has is based on speculation from real-world information, which will inevitably lead to serious deviations.
