She was still wearing that white sacrificial robe, looking very solemn. It was passed down from a certain Sequence 6 psychic, and was also the founder of Granny Sanzhi's lineage. It had an extraordinary origin and still retained some extraordinary characteristics, which could scare away evil spirits and weak gods. However, in the modern era, the founder of Granny Sanzhi's lineage did not appear.

There are many reasons; it could be that it perished, or it could be that it is hiding somewhere.

It is more likely that he became one of the gods, changed his appearance, and was unwilling to acknowledge his legacy left in the human world.

A thousand years ago, the spirit world left the mortal realm, forever separating the celestial beings from the human world, and the boundary between them became clear from then on.

One is the world of gods, and the other is the world of men; they cannot interfere with each other.

The existence of spirit mediums and gods is based on the spiritual dimension. If the spiritual dimension were to leave, it would mean that all supernatural powers would disappear and all those with supernatural abilities would fall into the mortal realm.

Originally human psychics, fearing the consequences, a significant number of them voluntarily entered the divine path and became part of the gods.

The relationship between spiritualists and deities is extremely subtle, and can be described as a twin path.

It is very simple for a psychic to become a god.

Because those powerful supernatural beings were originally beings who were both human and god, and could even retain their complete minds without having to go through a fall and lose themselves like evil spirits.

"What did the governor say?" Xiao Hua asked.

Now all communication devices such as mobile phones and computers are malfunctioning, and the Earth's magnetic field is extremely chaotic. Even in the original society, it would take many days to return to normal.

They had no choice but to use the special magic of psychics to communicate. In short, they could not lose contact. At present, the human side could not be said to be leaderless, but rather a disorganized mess, completely unable to unite their full strength.

"Tokyo has been flooded, and the Human Union's Japanese branch is relocating to higher ground..." Granny Saegusa frowned slightly as she looked at the note covered in mysterious writing.

The Human Alliance has evacuated from Dongjing and is heading to Mount Fuji, a sacred mountain containing an ancient barrier where gods were born in primitive times. The Asama Shrine is extremely famous there, and the Human Alliance has made an agreement with the Asama deity to seek refuge there.

The problem is that those who can take refuge during dangerous times are definitely not ordinary people, just like how tickets for Noah's Ark can sell for a billion dollars each...

Are they going to abandon the civilians?

But as Granny Saegusa continued to interpret the information, she was shocked by what followed: the human alliance led the refugee camp, but not only did they not care about ordinary people, even the nobles and royalty were not given this opportunity.

Throughout, that passage meant that only members of the Human Union could travel to Mount Fuji.

Finally, the governor ordered all psychics belonging to the Human Union in various regions to rush there as soon as possible.

"It's chaos, complete chaos!"

Grandma Sanzhi looked surprised, and her hand holding the note trembled slightly.

When she relayed this news to Jianzi and Xiaohua.

Xiao Hua was shocked and furious. "What does this mean? What about our families?"

“A psychic can have one family member’s place.”

"We can't worry about that now," Granny Saegusa said hoarsely. Right now, the only safe place in all of Japan is Mount Fuji, but only members of the Human Alliance can go in.

If one wants to protect oneself, it is even more difficult. Only those with supernatural powers can protect themselves and shelter a few people, but the number cannot be too large.

Nishimiya Yuzuru couldn't sit still any longer. The only two people she cared about most were her mother and Shoko.

What would happen if we didn't go to Mount Fuji?

“Life and death are predestined. Ordinary people have only a one in ten chance of surviving.” Granny Sanzhi shook her head. When she saw these messages, she immediately realized that human civilization was on the verge of collapse. This was a complete purge.

This is a gamble, a gamble on a miracle.

Nishimiya Yuzuru was stunned; she couldn't accept losing either of them.

She turned around and was about to leave.

"Where are you going?" Yotsuya Miko suddenly called out to her.

Nishimiya Yuzuru bit her lip. "I need to move my family to a safe place."

"I haven't applied for your identity yet, and without official proof, you can't go to Mount Fuji or enter Asama Shrine. Even if you could, as a Sequence 9, you would only have one extra spot. Do you want your sister to live, or your mother to live?"

Suddenly, Nishimiya Yuzuru remembered something, her eyes lighting up, "I still have my master, he should..."

In her eyes, Tendou Kagura was extremely mysterious; he must be a hidden human powerhouse with an extraordinary status, even though he had disappeared…

"You're overthinking it. Kagura Tendou is just an ordinary student. The Human Alliance won't make an exception for him."

"I don't care, I want them all to live!" Nishimiya Yuzuru glared at Kenko. "My Shadow System is different from that of the psychics, and the Human Alliance will definitely take me seriously."

"Yotsuya Miko, our agreement is null and void!"

She spoke very quickly, and after she finished speaking, she was about to disappear into the darkness, appearing extremely anxious.

Yotsuya Miko said in a deep voice, "Come back!"

She coughed heavily as soon as she finished speaking, her face turning very pale.

Nishimiya Yuzuru reappeared, her eyes filled with a frightening look. "You plotted against me!" She hadn't expected that Yotsuya Miko had given her a psychological suggestion at some point.

"No, it's just that my abilities have improved." She stopped coughing, took a breath, and said, "Don't worry, calm down."

“You have no family, of course you’re not in a hurry,” Nishimiya Yuzuru said coldly, her words sharp.

Baihe Chuanhua frowned slightly; no one wanted to face these things.

But Yotsuya Miko smiled, unconcerned. Her face was sickly pale as she continued, "You might not believe it, but I can actually hear the sounds of death coming from all over the world. Countless lives are disappearing."

"Perhaps it's a characteristic of me as a spiritualist, but I can sense that the souls of the dead have merged into this world and are changing it."

"Only from over there, there's still no sound. As expected of the Human Alliance, they chose the safest location for their headquarters..."

Yotsuya Miko pointed to the west and said with a smile.

The United Nations of Humanity has branches in various countries, with its headquarters located in the southeastern coastal region of Asia.

"If Mount Fuji is a small sanctuary, then it is the ship of civilization."

"If you want your family to be safe, go to that country. The Shadow System has incredible speed in the dark. If you run fast enough, death can't catch you."

Nishimiya Yuzuru remained silent for a moment. Seeing Yotsuya Miko's weak and feeble appearance, his originally warm and bright golden eyes dimmed considerably. He asked, "Is this what you wanted to say?"

"You and she should be able to send your families over there too, right?"

Nishimiya Yuzuru turned her head and glanced at Yurikawa Hana. This person's speed was no less than hers. When she unleashed her full power, she walked on the water as if it were flat ground. She was faster than any yacht. She could pack up her whole family and carry them across.

Needless to say, Yotsuya Miko has already reached the Sequence 7 level; her current level is just not yet stable.

"It's possible to do that, but neither Xiaohua nor I want to leave."

Nishimiya Yuzuru's expression shifted slightly: "Are you here to stop the disaster and save others?"

"This is an inevitable trend, how can it be stopped?" Jianzi smiled, but the smile was very bleak. Her skin was dull and lacked luster, and her hair was gradually turning yellow.

"The foundation of Heaven requires three-quarters of human life, a fixed number. That country accounts for the majority of the remaining quarter, and the missing human life needs to be made up for elsewhere."

“Because the weight of life is equal; if one person survives in this place, one person will die in another,” Jianzi whispered.

This is the cruelest part; no one expected something like this to happen.

Originally, they had a one in four chance of survival, but now that chance has suddenly dropped to one in ten. After this ordeal, can those small countries still survive?

Even if it exists, there will be a gap in civilization.

This is a real extinction crisis.

Nishimiya Yuzuru was unsure of Yotsuya Miko's intentions and asked directly, "So what do you want to do?"

Yotsuya Miko closed her eyes and sighed softly.

"I just want to protect the scenery I know and the people I know..."

In a daze, she was transported back to that day.

At that time, she was just a girl who could see, and thus she noticed Tendo Kagura's abnormality.

In the days following his confession, Kagura Tendo told her many things, including what he had done, though the more he told her, the more confused she became.

She understood the future that might happen in an extremely rushed moment.

At that time, she didn't think that Tendo Kagura was deceiving her.

She trusted him completely and made deductions based on what Tendo Kagura said.

Then, she found herself unable to accept this outcome!

Just as Yuzuru Nishimiya couldn't accept choosing between two options, she also couldn't accept that kind of future.

She was a rational young woman who, in her spare time, would ponder where the end of civilization lay.

Human development has only spanned a few thousand years, but the universe is boundless and has gone through countless millennia from ancient times to the present.

Therefore, there is no need to have excessive expectations for the future of civilization.

Because the chances of growing into a super civilization that coexists with the universe are too small.

There are also many prophecies about the future of civilization, such as the third world war, famine caused by resource depletion, and a disease with a terrible mortality rate.

For example, a meteorite impact on Earth...

There were just too many possibilities, so her mindset remained extremely calm.

There was no other reason than that those possibilities were too far removed from her, like the sky—seemingly within reach, yet in reality too distant to approach.

Until she discovered it.

Not just her, everyone will die.

People she knew would die, familiar scenery would be destroyed, her self, her family, her school, her city, the park she used to frequent as a child, the shopping street she and Xiaohua used to stroll through, the TV programs she and her brother used to watch—all would become unrecognizable, like wisps of smoke rising and then dissipating into the air.

The destruction of civilization is like a movie that has finished playing, a song that has finished listening to, or a novel that has been marked "The End" at the end...

In the end, everything came to a close, leaving only a faint lingering regret in my heart.

But she is not a fixed character in a movie, nor a lyric in a song; she is an intellectual, wise, and self-aware human being.

She has a warm family, she is independent and strong, she dislikes regrets, separations and deaths, and works that end abruptly without a clear story.

In her eyes, such unreasonable works are better left unwatched, or even worse than nonexistent.

But since it exists, it must have value.

Therefore, human civilization should continue to exist, until it brings itself to an end.

Instead of using deus ex machina to ruin the story.

Human civilization should not end like this!

Amidst her endless confusion and fear, she even shed tears.
