Simultaneous Transmigration: We Share a Role-Playing System

Chapter 206 Prelude to Destruction

For Suiying, thinking is already a luxury.

The bio-armor of the Abyss was not prepared for a mortal like him. Even with the gift of the Lord of Light and Shadow, he had to give everything to the Abyss without reservation, including his own consciousness.

This also made him completely unaware of what the battlefield had become and how absurd and bizarre the situation had become.

He simply clenched his fists mechanically on this desolate, blood-soaked wasteland, indiscriminately tearing apart everything that moved in his sight.

The only thing that kept him going was the fond memories of the past and the fantasies of a happy future.

He must give everything to protect them, even if it means giving up everything he has now.

Suddenly, the warm memories of 4277 and the child in my mind were abruptly severed as if by a cold knife.

The shadowy figure, with blood and tears seeping from the corner of its eye, suddenly awoke, and through the crimson vision of the one standing on the edge of the abyss, saw the real world before it.

Shadow soldiers rose from every shadow, dying and being reborn. Endless Devouring Beasts surged from the horizon like a black tide. The red and black soil and pale bones gathered at his feet to form an endless ocean, which had long since submerged his knees and continued to spread upwards as the war continued.

This brief moment of lucidity exhausted his last bit of strength and caused him to completely lose his mind.

When all the illusions vanished, only one thought remained etched into Suiying's mind.

"mark--

He uttered the first word to himself, his voice hoarse as if sandpaper were rubbing against rusty steel.

"mark."

After the second sound, his breathing became rapid, and the knuckles of his clenched fist turned white from the force.

"mark!"

He suddenly tilted his head back and let out a third heart-wrenching roar.

His roar was distorted by the Abyss Dweller into a sharp, piercing noise that pierced through the clamor of the entire battlefield.

Where are you?!

Noble Phantasm: End's Gift

As Suiying let out a hysterical roar, a tiny, blazing white dot, the size of a pinhead, slowly descended from the sky above, carried by the savior of another world.

And so, this inconspicuous spot of light quietly descended.

At this moment on the battlefield, neither the Devouring Beasts nor the Shadow Soldiers noticed the light that was about to rewrite everything.

The awn seemed to be nothing more than a feather that had drifted in from who-knows-where.

Until it gently touched the ground in the center of the vortex basin.

In an instant, all was silent.

All the roars, all the explosions, all the sounds of the wind vanished at the same moment.

The world suddenly changed color, and the activated pseudo-white hole spewed out endless matter from the singularity, with destructive shockwaves sweeping outwards at supersonic speeds.

Space was torn into distorted folds, time briefly stagnated at the center of energy, and the physical rules of the real world collapsed completely under Victor's immense power.

The entire land was devoid of any other color, leaving only blinding light that could burn the retina and terrifying heat that could melt steel.

On the cliffs at the edge of the basin, the hunters who were fighting alongside the shadow soldiers hadn't even realized what was happening before their world was completely filled with pure white.

A deafening roar exploded in their ears simultaneously, instantly robbing them of all their senses. They felt as if their bodies were floating in the void, weightless and disoriented.

After an unknown amount of time, the white light finally dissipated. In their dazed state, they seemed to see that the once blood-soaked, corpse-strewn vortex basin had now transformed into a massive, smooth, mirror-like meteorite crater.

But as their consciousness gradually returned, they all stared wide-eyed, their minds blank.

who am I?

Where am i?

What was I doing just now?

What exactly happened here?

"Drip—drip—drip"

A piercing red alarm suddenly sounded simultaneously in all the surviving vehicles, jolting everyone out of their daze. The old-fashioned health robot, Jianjian, also analyzed in a timely manner: "An abnormal high-energy reaction has been detected. The energy spectrum matches the core characteristics of a small Schwarzschild white hole predicted by general relativity with a 99.7% accuracy."

Because the abnormal fluctuations in the gravitational field have reached a critical value, Jianjian reminds you that the shock wave will arrive in 3 seconds.

It is strongly recommended to evacuate immediately to an underground shelter or find cover made of at least 50 meters of rock; otherwise, your chances of survival are less than 0.05%!

Jianjian's almost absurd analysis was like a bucket of ice water poured over the heads of all the hunters who were still in a state of confusion.

They shivered violently, their minds instantly clearing from a blank state.

The rifle in someone's hand fell to the ground with a clatter. Someone subconsciously touched their face to make sure they were still alive. Everyone stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with disbelief.

This—this really isn't some kind of high-yield nuclear bomb?

Instead—a white hole? ??

The three-second countdown passed in the blink of an eye. The expected cataclysmic shockwave did not arrive; instead, only a barely perceptible breeze brushed against everyone's cheeks.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, then they all breathed a sigh of relief. Some people's legs went weak and they collapsed to the ground, their weapons falling to the ground with a clatter.

But when their gaze fell once more on the massive, smooth, mirror-like crater, devoid of even a speck of dust, their hearts, which had just settled, leaped into their throats again.

The unknown terror beyond comprehension nearly crushed them. A chilling fear, like vines, climbed up their spines and to the top of their heads. Subtle commotion began to emerge in the crowd. The prolonged life-or-death battle and the explosion that shattered their worldviews made their taut nerves unable to hold on any longer, and some began to tremble uncontrollably.

Just then, a gentle voice suddenly rang out in the center of the position: "There is no need to be afraid or panicked. You no longer need to worry about life and death."

Viktor, draped in a pure white robe, had somehow appeared in the middle of the crowd.

He made no sound of footsteps, nor did his clothes flutter, as if he had been standing there from the very beginning.

He slowly walked past Mo Cheng, his gaze sweeping over each of the still-shaken people.

His voice was soft, yet it possessed a strange, calming power that miraculously soothed everyone's restless hearts.

Mo Cheng instinctively raised his rifle, aiming it at the mysterious figure who had suddenly appeared. His finger on the trigger wouldn't press, and finally, he slowly lowered the gun, his voice filled with barely concealed doubt and wariness as he asked, "Who are you? Yet another Lord of Light and Shadow? Why didn't you appear when the disasters happened in the past, but now you're all popping up one after another!"

Victor stopped, not turning to look at Mo Cheng, but focusing his gaze on the car and gravity object brought by the hunters, before replying indifferently, "Does it matter?"

Mo Cheng's eyes churned with confusion and despair on the verge of collapse. He clenched his fists tightly, his knuckles turning white from the force, and replied earnestly, word by word, "All of this may not matter to you, but it matters to me. I need to know whether, in the final moments of my life, I should bow my head and pray to God, or pick up a gun and fight back for myself one last time."

Upon hearing this, Viktor's lips slowly curved into a meaningful smile. He turned his head slightly, his gaze sweeping over all the still-shaken people present, and calmly said, "Whether you choose to bow your head in prayer or rise up in resistance, it will not affect my arrival. Although many people call me a god, I know that I only possess a tiny, insignificant power."

As soon as he finished speaking, he slowly opened his arms.

In an instant, all the metal structures on the position emitted a piercing hum. Guns, armored vehicles, gravity bodies, scattered ammunition boxes, and even the steel bars on the ground disintegrated into countless golden particles. Only Mo Cheng's mechanical prosthetic right leg remained intact on his body.

These golden particles flowed and converged in the air as if they were alive, eventually being recast behind Viktor into a ten-meter-high metal throne made of countless gears and pipes.

Victor walked step by step up the steps to the throne.

With each step he took, his white robes faded a little, and the golden light intensified. His figure gradually grew taller, and his face became blurred yet majestic, drawing ever closer to the legendary god of all machines and technology.

When he finally sat on the throne and regained control of the Machine God, a cold and majestic mechanical voice replaced his previous gentle human voice, echoing throughout the battlefield: "At the same time, fulfill your due obligations."

Noble Phantasm: Machine Throne

[Ring the bell three times to praise Ohm the Messiah]

In the sky, Li Hua and the others frantically checked themselves to see if they were missing anything. Only after realizing that they had not died from the old man's attack did they breathe a sigh of relief and slowly descend into the meteorite crater.

Rosa: "Waaaaah~ I was so scared! I thought I was going to die this time."

Glasses: "It seems that he really is Lord Victor from the Twin Cities worldview. As expected of the powerful man who wiped out the entire Valoran continent, I never thought in my life that a Heroic Spirit's Noble Phantasm is a hand-made white hole."

Recalling the data analyzed by the armored AI, Glasses couldn't help but twitch his lips. If the spirit body alone was this powerful, how strong must the original body be?

Could it be that what Brother Luo said was true, and that he really was the most useless one in his previous team? He must have stumbled upon this unexpected adventure.

He Liang: "But I still don't understand why we're completely unharmed, even though we were clearly attacked just now."

Feeling the power within him constantly surging and dissipating, Li Hua closed his eyes, looking at the fragments of memories that surfaced in his mind due to his connection with Viktor. He responded uncertainly, "I think it's related to Viktor's past experiences. Brother Luo and the others must have been on missions in the Type-Moon world. Viktor's experiences in the Type-Moon world were sublimated into a Noble Phantasm, which is why it has this effect."

Li Hua opened his eyes and silently muttered the name of Viktor's Noble Phantasm, but the more he thought about it, the more something seemed off.

"The Gift of the End, does it represent the end for humanity's enemies, but a gift for humanity? Loko, what exactly did you all go through in the past?"

As soon as the words were spoken, a cloud of dust suddenly rose in the distance, and the Abyss Walker transformed into a gray lightning bolt, arriving before everyone in just a few breaths.

"mark!!!"

Just as everyone was scrambling to prepare for the attack, a knight wielding a greatsword suddenly sprang out from the shadows beneath Li Hua.

The knight's speed far surpassed that of the others. Before they could even see what happened, they only felt a red lightning bolt flash before their eyes, and the Abyss Walker was controlled by the other party. No matter how much he struggled, he could not break free from the other party's control.

After Yeglitter pinned the Abyss to the ground with his greatsword, he stepped on the Abyss and turned to face the crowd.

"I am Yegrit, the commander of the Shadow Knights, and I am here by the King's command to protect you all."

After Yeglitter revealed his family background, everyone finally felt relieved. Li Hua patted his chest and said helplessly, "As expected of Brother Luo, he always gives us some surprises."

Old Zhao: "To be honest, I'm used to it."

Glasses: "Me too."

Seeing that they could finally catch their breath, everyone quickly rested, took out supplies, and began to replenish their energy in preparation for the upcoming crisis.

During a brief respite, Rosa looked around but couldn't find Viktor. She turned to Li Hua and asked, "Captain, where's Viktor?"

Before Li Hua could speak, Yeglit interjected, "King Kuyou is making preparations; the current environment is not conducive to his performance."

Seeing this, Li Hua frowned and decided to ask for clarification: "Where is Brother Luo's plan at now? What are we going to do next?"

Jaglitter raised his head, looked at Li Hua, and said seriously, "We kings do not need plans. As soldiers under the king's command, we are invincible. However, if we want to save this world, the mastermind must appear."

Upon hearing the words "behind the scenes," Glasses began to recall all the memories related to Ling Cage in his mind, and finally asked, "You mean, that giant?"

As the transformation entered its final and most crucial stage, Mana's initial body, which had possessed Mark, expanded wildly, eventually settling at a height of six meters.

Mark's original human features were completely covered up. His iconic scars and resolute eyebrows disappeared, replaced by a cold and holy face that was exactly the same as the original Mana from billions of years ago.

As the last trace of primordial essence, stored within her for billions of years, completely merged into Mark's body, the Primordial Body finally slowly opened her eyes. Satisfied, she stretched her new form and issued the final command to the entire Mana ecosystem.

Subsequently, she severed her spiritual connection with the Mana Flower without hesitation, completely breaking free from the constraints of the ecological network.

Its initial form transformed into a black lightning bolt, breaking through the top of the shielding tower and speeding towards the direction of the Australasian Vortex.

At this moment, she was immersed in the ecstasy of obtaining the perfect container, completely unaware that the world-destroying battle in outer space had long deviated from her expected trajectory.

Every clash between the Lord of Light and Shadow and the King of Darkness precisely struck the main trunk of the mantle vines near the Australasian continent. These attacks, powerful enough to tear planets apart, were methodically destroying the last foundation of the Mana ecosystem.
