Fate's Choice: Livestream at the Start Summoning Billions of Ravens

"system."

Jiang Ming silently recited in his heart.

"Before activating the selection, perform a 10% [Selection Enhancement]."

[Confirm spending 1,000,000 Emotion Points to enhance the quality of this selection?]

"confirm."

[Emotional Value Balance: 10,450,545]

[The enhancement selection is complete. The minimum acceptable outcome of this "Choose One of Three Destinies" event will be increased. Good luck!]

"The sixth choice of fate will begin."

[Confirm the consumption of 10,000,000 Emotion Points to activate the sixth "Choose One of Three Destinies" event?]

"confirm!"

[Emotional Value Balance: 450,545]

The next second, three options burning with dark golden flames slowly appeared.

Option A: Worldline Reset (Special)

[Type: Disposable Consumable]

[Effect: Allows you to specify a past point in time (no later than the time of the host's birth) and forcibly reset the current world line back to that point. The host will retain all memories and abilities.]

[WARNING: This action will consume all the energy of this option and trigger an unpredictable and unavoidable "worldline backlash," the consequences of which are unknown.]

Jiang Ming looked at the first option, which was a ball of light that kept replaying past scenes.

He thought about it briefly and then ruled it out.

"An unpredictable backlash?"

"It's foolish to entrust your fate to an unknown warning."

Jiang Ming's gaze shifted to the second option.

It was an ancient, pitch-black box, carved with countless wailing faces, from which an aura of despair and chaos seeped.

Option B: Pandora's Box (Imitation)

[Type: Disposable Consumable]

[Effect: Upon activation, it randomly selects one concept from [Lies], [Forgetfulness], [Suspicion], [Chaos], and [Plague], releasing it worldwide and causing a global conceptual catastrophe.]

[Note: After the disaster is released, a corresponding "conceptual" hope will be left at the bottom of the box.]

Jiang Ming frowned slightly.

It's random again.

What he needs is a drama he directs himself, not an out-of-control farce whose ending he can't even predict.

This option was also rejected.

The last option.

It was a smooth, mirror-like round crystal. It was neither burning nor reflecting light; it simply floated there quietly, yet it seemed to reflect all the heavens and the myriad worlds, revealing everything that was real and fictional.

Option C: Mirror Doll (Special)

[Type: Creative Ability (No System Level Restriction)]

[Effect: The host can consume emotional points to create a perfect life-body mirror image with the corresponding appearance, personality, memories, and abilities, based on a specific template (a real person, historical figure, or even a character from mythology or fictional stories).]

[Detailed Explanation: The strength of a mirror puppet is directly proportional to the amount of emotion invested, and theoretically there is no upper limit. Mirror puppets possess absolute obedience to their host.]

Jiang Ming's breath caught in his throat for a second when he saw the option.

His heart began to race.

create.

Reproduction.

Fueled by emotions, they transform fiction into reality.

Isn't this just... a perfect assembly line for mass-producing "superhumans"?

A and B represent the power to overturn tables, brimming with destruction and loss of control.

C represents his qualification to become a "dealer".

What he wanted was never to destroy the world.

Instead, he turned the whole world into his stage.

I choose C.

Jiang Ming made his choice.

The orb of light representing the [worldline reset] and the [Pandora's Box] dimmed instantly, turning into dust and dissipating.

The smooth, round crystal then transformed into a stream of light, shooting straight into Jiang Ming's brow.

A massive, entirely new torrent of information about "creation," "reproduction," "fabrication," and "attribution" washed over his soul.

As Jiang Ming recovered from the shock of the information overload and slowly opened his eyes, the world was still the same world.

However, a plan began to take shape wildly in his mind.

Previously, from the Raven's Call to the Hundred Cats' Disco, to the Withered Tree's Rebirth, and finally the First Snow in Yuzhang, all of these events relied on him alone to "perform" and gain emotional points, which was too inefficient.

Moreover, the audience's threshold is constantly increasing.

What will he do next? Make the moon fall down?

This single, media-dependent model, which relies on his own appearances, is nearing its end.

Moreover, the intervals between events are too long, making it difficult to sustain and maintain emotional impact.

But now, with the [Mirror Doll]...

Excitement gleamed in Jiang Ming's eyes.

He could easily create multiple "superhumans" and have them stage a series of spectacular "scripts" in different parts of the world.

Let them fight, clash, cooperate, and betray.

Jiang Ming himself remained behind the scenes, acting as the sole rule-maker and the ultimate reaper.

A word emerged from the depths of his memory.

The Holy Grail War.

That's right, that's what it's called.

A name that is both eye-catching and full of a sense of destiny.

Jiang Ming began to quickly devise the details of the plan.

First, you need to choose a "Master".

Seven, no more, no less, a number shrouded in mystery.

They can be anyone—a billionaire, a politician, a hitman, or just an ordinary person.

Then, create a "Servant" for each of them from human history or mythology.

King Arthur, Gilgamesh, Hercules...

These resounding names inherently possess a wealth of emotional value.

When these heroes, who only exist in fantasy, appear in the world, the global emotions they ignite will be a hundred or a thousand times greater than those of "Yuzhang's First Snow"!

Of course, there also needs to be an ultimate bait to drive all participants to fight each other.

A wish.

That's right.

The ultimate victor can have any wish granted.

Whether it's wealth, power, or resurrecting the dead.

The concept of this "omnipotent wish-granting machine" will become the final fuse that ignites everyone's greed and desire.

To increase the drama and the unpredictability of the game, "Command Seals" are also essential.

Each Master is granted three absolute commands over their Servants.

This is both a guarantee and a death sentence.

The framework of the plan was conceived by Jiang Ming in just a few minutes.

As for how the victor's wishes will be fulfilled, that will be discussed after the victor is determined.

Jiang Ming stood up from the deck chair, walked to the edge of the terrace, and looked down at the city below.

He picked up the black, encrypted phone.

I dialed Chen Jianguo's number.

The call was answered almost instantly.

"Consultant Jiang, you wanted to see me?"

"Director Chen."

Jiang Ming's voice was very calm.

"Just so you know, after 'First Snow in Yuzhang,' I need a long time to find new inspiration."

"Therefore, I will not be having any public appearances in the near future."

There was a long silence on the other end of the phone.

"I see."

Chen Jianguo's voice revealed a heartfelt sense of relief.

"This is good news for all of us."

"If you need any help, please feel free to contact me anytime, and we will do our best to assist you."

"it is good."
