The whole nation: You're put to survive on a desolate planet, you'll be running an alien b

The piercing screech of the raiders echoed throughout the observation deck, and a chilling killing intent overwhelmed everyone like a tidal wave.

The body beneath the "Undertaker" mask trembled uncontrollably.

His stage, which he was so proud of, and his meticulously laid traps, all seemed like a clumsy joke in the face of absolute violence.

Li Haotian picked up the silver briefcase from the ground, weighed it in his hand, and the briefcase made a slight metallic clinking sound.

"A divine limiter?"

He looked up at the stiff raven mask.

"This thing can't possibly restrict me?"

"How...how did you do that? The force field was already activated; your abilities should have been completely suppressed!"

The Undertaker's voice was hoarse, the elegant aria shattered, leaving only incomprehensible fear.

Li Haotian seemed not to hear his question and continued to examine the box in his hands.

"The design concept is good, but the power is too low."

He casually pinched it.

"Snap!"

The sturdy alloy casing twisted and deformed in his hands, and the intricate internal circuitry and components were squeezed into a lump of scrap iron, emitting a crackling electrical sound before finally going out completely.

The invisible force field that enveloped the observation deck dissipated instantly.

Beneath Li Haotian's feet, the shadow that had been dormant due to the force field suppression began to wriggle restlessly once again.

The Undertaker watched this scene unfold, his pupils shrinking to pinpoints beneath his mask.

He crushed the limiter with his bare hands?

This is no longer a strong, ordinary person; this is a monster in human skin!

"Now, let's talk about compensation."

Li Haotian threw the lump of scrap metal on the ground with a dull thud.

He walked slowly toward the "funeral procession".

"You kidnapped my people, tried to bomb my city, and most importantly, wasted my precious sleep time."

The raider moved silently behind the Undertaker, its foul breath spraying onto the back of his neck.

The "funeral attendant" was completely stiff and dared not move.

"I...I can give you money! Lots of money!"

"Our organization has many assets; I can give them all to you!"

"money?"

Li Haotian smiled.

"You think I need that stuff?"

He stopped in front of "The Undertaker" and reached out to remove his raven mask.

Beneath the mask was an ordinary European face, contorted with extreme fear, his blond hair soaked with sweat.

"Tell me, where is your stronghold?"

"If I tell you, will you let me go?"

The man asked, trembling.

Li Haotian didn't say anything, he just tilted his head.

The raider behind him understood immediately, and its sharp tail blade slowly rose, the tip pressed against the man's back.

The icy touch penetrated his clothes, and the man instantly broke down.

"I'll talk! I'll talk!"

"Our headquarters is on a mobile offshore platform! There are no fixed coordinates!"

"But we have a transit point, at the abandoned docks in the east of the city, Warehouse No. 3!"

"I'll give you access and the password!"

The man spoke rapidly, as if afraid that if he slowed down even half a second, that stinger would pierce his heart.

"Yes, very good."

Li Haotian nodded, seemingly quite satisfied.

Seeing a glimmer of hope, the man quickly added.

"I'm just an executor; I have a 'bishop' above me! Release me, and I can help you deal with them!"

"I'm very useful!"

"it works?"

Li Haotian repeated it, then seemed to remember something.

He looked down again at the "divine limiter" on the ground, which had been crushed into scrap metal.

A crazy idea popped into his mind.

He brought up the system interface that only he could see, and his gaze fell on the [Queen's Egg], which had reached 99% incubation progress.

"You said this thing can suppress 'divinity'."

"What would happen if I fed it to something that was about to become a 'god'?"

The man was stunned, completely bewildered by what Li Haotian was saying.

"What...feed what?"

Li Haotian ignored him.

He reached out and made a grabbing motion in the air.

The lump of scrap metal containing the limiter on the ground vanished instantly.

[Hint: An unknown high-dimensional energy aggregate has been detected. Do you wish to attempt to merge with the nest's energy pool?]

[WARNING: This item's laws conflict with the primary plane; fusion may lead to unpredictable mutations, with a success rate of less than 1%!]

"Merger confirmed."

Li Haotian silently recited it in his heart.

[Warning: Fusion begins... Energy conflict... Law incompatibility...]

[WARNING: The Queen's Egg is forcibly absorbing a high-dimensional energy aggregate!]

[Queen's Egg Hatching Progress: 99.1%...99.5%...99.9%...]

Almost at the same time, in the game world, on the No. 10 beginner village server.

Deep within the cave where Li Haotian was, the enormous heart of the nest trembled violently.

The originally pale green energy pool was instantly filled with a violent silver current.

In the center of the pool, the enormous, pulsating "Queen's Egg" had its surface veins bursting, emitting a dazzling light!

[Queen's Egg Hatching Progress: 100%!]

"Click—"

A crisp cracking sound came from the top of the giant egg.

Immediately afterwards, cracks spread rapidly like a spider web, covering the entire eggshell.

"boom!!!"

With a deafening roar, the entire giant egg exploded!

An indescribable, terrifying pressure originating from the deepest part of one's bloodline and soul swept across the entire server, centered on the cave!

[Server-wide Announcement (Crimson): The Mythical Creature [Alien Queen] has descended! The prelude to Ragnarok has officially begun!]

[Server-wide Announcement (Crimson): All players will be affected by the DEBUFF [Soul Trembling]: All attributes -20%, damage dealt to "Alien" units reduced by 50%, effect lasting until the Queen's first hibernation.]

[Server-wide Announcement (Crimson): Player "Alien" has successfully hatched a mythical creature, causing a disruptive impact on the course of the world, and has been granted the unique title [Lord of Calamity]!]

On the ruins of the beginner village, tens of thousands of players who had just recovered from the shock of the BOSS battle were stunned by the barrage of bloody announcements before they could even catch their breath.

"An...Empress? What's that?"

"All attributes reduced by 20%? Are you kidding me?!"

"It's that Alien again! What kind of monster is he?!"

"Lord of Calamities... that title doesn't sound like a good person at all!"

Everyone felt as if an invisible mountain was pressing down on them, making it difficult to even breathe.

Meanwhile, at the top of the TV tower.

Li Haotian stood quietly, his eyes slightly closed.

His ID, "Alien," had turned an ominous blood red in the system interface of his mind and was permanently pinned to the very top of all the server's leaderboards, impossible to view or hide, like a brand.

In the title section, the four large, blood-red characters, "Lord of Calamity," radiated a chilling light.

He could clearly "see" a massive, sky-covering black figure slowly rising from the broken eggshell in the cavern of the game.

She let out a silent roar.

At this moment, all the mutated creatures on the entire planet, regardless of their level, prostrated themselves on the ground, facing the direction of the cave, offering their most primal submission.

"god……"

The man, who had been subdued by the raiders, looked at Li Haotian, who had suddenly fallen still as if his soul had left his body, and then at the unchanging night sky outside the window. He uttered syllables that were not meaningful.

Li Haotian slowly opened his eyes.

His gaze was colder and more indifferent than before, as if a god high in the clouds was looking down on a lowly ant.

He looked at the man in front of him and spoke calmly.

"Your 'divinity' was eaten by my pet."

The man was completely stunned.

Just then, another bright red pop-up window forcibly occupied Li Haotian's field of vision.

[Global Server Emergency Update Notice:]

[Due to uncontrollable factors accelerating the world's progress, the Gods Game has officially entered version 2.0 – Ragnarok!]

[Version Feature 1: Real-world Anchoring. Some game instances will generate permanent entrances in the real world, and the laws of the game will begin to merge with the real world.]

[Version Feature 2: Divine Awakening. Holders of S-rank or higher talents will have a chance to unlock some extraordinary abilities in the real world.]

[Version Feature 3: ...]

Li Haotian didn't watch any further.

He turned and walked toward the huge French window that had been smashed by the raiders.

The night breeze lifted the hem of his clothes.

He reached out his hand, as if to touch the city's night sky.

In the distance, the once pitch-black night sky began to glow with an eerie purple halo, flowing and spreading slowly like the aurora borealis.

Under this eerie sky, the lights of the entire city appeared dim and lackluster.

"I said..."

Li Haotian muttered to himself.

"The game has only just begun."
