I've become the emperor of humanity, and only now is spiritual energy reviving?

"Why is it only humans who can't be killed and eaten? Whose lowly alien pooped here again?"

"If only alien civilization could descend and save this dark society, what do you think the alien commander would do first, turn you into a wriggling maggot?"

"If you had Superman's power, you could do whatever you want and I wouldn't eat beef? You think you know everything, and you speak for everyone?"

"Ha, a bunch of stupid, parasitic idiots, too lazy to even bother criticizing them!"

An Sheng had just skillfully added a batch of IDs to the blacklist when she heard her mother's voice coming from the living room.

"Son, I've heated up your milk. Don't let me find it still there untouched tomorrow morning."

"Hey, coming right up—!"

An Sheng, dressed in a classic blue and white school uniform, replied with a smile after tucking her phone under her pillow.

He was completely unrecognizable as the man who had just been engaging in a heated online debate, making sarcastic remarks.

Playing with abstract concepts online is fine, but who in their right mind would bring this mess into their real life?

—An Sheng, eighteen years old, is a senior high school student with seventy days left until the college entrance examination.

High school seniors at this stage are surrounded by gentle parents who are always there for them, offering comfort and care so that their children can focus on their studies.

However, An Sheng felt that he could only get into a top-tier university, and no matter how hard he tried, he would never get into a 211 university. Even if he completely gave up, he would not fall into a second-tier university.

It's a situation where you can't go up or down, you're stuck here.

After all, his English is really bad.

I just can't understand the grooves no matter how hard I try. I've never passed a subject since junior high. One subject drags down the rest of my grades.

Therefore, between the painful choice of not losing points and the joy of not losing points, An Sheng resolutely chose the latter!

"I'm about to witness the pure love war god, Yigu Sendai, defeating four opponents in a row! My passion is about to ignite!"

An Sheng happily finished her milk, washed up, and then, by the last possible moment, secretly threw all the mysterious little white paper balls behind the bedroom door into the trash can, keeping her out of her mother's sight.

Then I went back to my room, turned off the lights, and crawled into the cool, comfortable bed.

Phone, start it up!

Before indulging in anime... let's clear out the stamina of the second-generation characters: Yesterday's Round Boat, Mingchao, and ○God.

As An Sheng was thinking this, she suddenly noticed an app in the lower right corner of her phone. It featured a strangely familiar-looking head of a dark-skinned, beautiful girl pointing at the background of the screen, surrounded by radiant light.

Terra: Paranormal Events?

What is this thing?

An Sheng rolled over in bed, thought for a while, and realized that she had never heard of this game at all.

This, in turn, piqued his interest.

It's worth noting that An Sheng considers himself a gaming guru. He knows everything about mobile and PC games, from adult games on DL to AAA titles on Steam. He's even familiar with games before they've been released.

Suddenly, a completely unfamiliar game popped up.

"That's interesting... but could it be that when I lent my phone to my unfilial son the other day, he secretly looked at the domestic content section and let the virus take root on my phone?"

"If that's the case, I'll definitely scatter all the toilet paper when he goes to the bathroom tomorrow!"

While opening the game might cause your phone to be infected with a Trojan virus that could spread rapidly, deleting it directly is certainly the right choice in this situation.

But this is the mindset of a loser!

Since we've already started, let's see how it goes!

If it really is a virus, I'll just format the phone if all else fails; I have a backup on the cloud drive anyway.

An Sheng grinned and slammed the button on the game.

The screen went black.

Then, to the accompaniment of epic music, lines of powerful text appeared.

[Great Emperor, I offer my praise for your rebirth! Welcome back to the Chronicles of Terra!]

An Sheng was startled and quickly turned her phone volume down to the lowest setting. She then pulled out her earphones from under the bed, put them on, and continued reading.

Your return brings hope of salvation to many apocalyptic worlds on the brink of destruction. Your power will once again illuminate the entire multiverse with the brilliance of humanity.

What the hell? I've become the Emperor of Humanity?

Are you kidding me?

An Sheng's expression was priceless, but her interest in the game was growing... To be fair, the background music was pretty good.

[Searching for a suitable Lostbelt for you...]

[Loser belt search complete. The current deviation between "Loser belt: The End of the Great Era" and Terra is 0.1%. Welcome, newborn great emperor.]

He clicked "Start Game," intending to continue watching.

The next instant, everything went black before An Sheng's eyes, who was huddled in the blankets.

What came into An Sheng's view again was an endless desolate dirt road, with cracked and white field ridges on both sides, and broken white bones and a few almost withered brown and yellow weeds scattered everywhere.

Scorching hot, dry.

The scorching sunlight poured down from the sky, and soon An Sheng's back was covered in sweat.

He stared blankly around for a long while, a million question marks popping up on his forehead.

The powerful words continued to appear in An Sheng's mind.

[In the 427th year of the Great Jing Dynasty, a severe drought struck the southeast, frost ravaged the northern frontier, and turmoil raged in the western regions.]

During a severe famine, people resorted to cannibalism.

Millions lay dead, blood flowed for miles.

However, the Great Jing Emperor continued to take the lives of ordinary people, single-mindedly pursuing the elixir of immortality in order to become an immortal.

People were confused, people were in pain, people were desperate... Countless people had hoped, prayed, and fantasized that someone would exorcise this hell on earth and bring peace to the world.

And so, you responded to that expectation.

[Newly born emperor, please lend a helping hand to this Lostbelt on the verge of destruction.]

what?

Should I... should I come?

An Sheng, whose mouth was already dry from the sun and who knew she might be killed by the sun in a dozen hours, paused for a moment and continued reading.

[Newborn, inexperienced emperor, please choose one of the following three legacies of the past as the initial vessel to save the Lostbelt.]

[Walking the Lostbelt: Since ancient times, people have measured history and the land with their own two feet, and so will you. Increase the probability of triggering hidden events; the more distance you walk, the greater the probability of triggering an event.]

[The Four Gods' Chosen: Strength, Wisdom, Life, and Joy! You will receive the blessings of four gods, greatly enhancing all your attributes, talents, and wisdom, but unknown and mysterious effects will occur.]

[Gate of Babylon: Even a sliver of light leaking from the crack in the door of the Gate of Babylon is enough to drive mortals mad. You will receive an additional similar reward whenever you obtain any reward in a Lostbelt.]

All three gifts look very tempting, making it difficult to choose.

However, An Sheng, a seasoned expert with over 10,000 hours of relevant experience, could almost immediately discern the value of the three and quickly made his selection.

The words in my mind address questions related to death.

[Young, newly born emperor, if you perish in the Lostbelt: The End of the Great Era, you will need to wait 24 hours before you can reappear.]

While it's a good thing that you won't really die in this Lostbelt, the current cooldown for resurrection is "24 hours". Will there be "48 hours" or even "24 days" in the future?

If that's the case, then dying once will significantly slow down the progress.

Moreover, given that he is currently powerless, choosing the Lostbelt Walker role, which only has potential in the late game and might even backfire in the early game, is just asking for an easy death.

As for the seemingly wonderful selection of the Four Gods...

An Sheng said that this thing looked very strange everywhere, and every word inside and out exuded a strange smell.

And the final Gate of Babylon is by no means an alternative, but a choice that can be powerful from the early game all the way to the late game - all rewards are doubled, it's like having a resource cheat!

【Newly crowned emperor, you have chosen the legacy of the past—"Gate of Babylon"!】

Please, save this Lostbelt from destruction!
