Yu-Gi-Oh!: This card wants to go to you.

This stance has lasted for decades.

Fortunately for the human population, the two happened to be a man and a woman.

In the film, the two remain silent, turn around and walk into the laboratory together, mix their respective life factors to cultivate a batch of embryos, invest the resources they have collected throughout their lives to nurture them, and then close the cryogenic chamber.

After doing all this, the two returned to the edge of the roof and sat down, about ten meters apart.

Below the tall building are piles of bones.

The two watched the sunset together, without embracing or snuggling.

The body gradually ages and withers, slowly losing its vitality...

Finally, a line of emotionless narration appears on the screen:

If there had been even one more person, they wouldn't have sat together to watch the sunset.

Many years have passed, and the embryos have begun to take human form. They instinctively open the incubation chamber, like chicks breaking through eggshells, or like crabs walking straight, staggering and crawling.

Until I stepped out of the oppressive, cold, and dilapidated laboratory.

A white light, a symbol of hope, flashed by.

The outside world is lush and green, with birds and beasts flying everywhere, and flowers blooming and singing.

The world has been successfully reset, and civilization has been restarted.

One by one, the experimental subjects crawled out of the incubation chamber, their learning-savvy brains imprinting the process of their "birth" onto them.

They learned to use the incubation chambers to produce human companions, and although they later mastered or discovered the true method of reproduction, they still preferred their original habits.

Thus, the culture of "numbered people" that lasted for hundreds of years was born.

The final scene: human silhouettes.

The fingertip reached towards the [Sacred Stone Tablet] once more.

The film ends here, leaving endless room for imagination about the future.

The artistic processing is excellent, and the special effects are perfect in every aspect.

Luo Bai was enjoying his meal when he was about to turn off the video.

Several paragraphs of white text suddenly popped up on the black screen.

"Is there an Easter egg?" Luo Bai thought to himself.

The misprints no longer seem to be an artistic embellishment.

The time was marked very formally, as if it were a serious record of historical facts.

In the year 404 of the New Spirit Calendar, a mysterious woman manipulated millions of undead puppets to bombard the Divine Star Tree, triggering the arrival of the Divine Vanguard, the Hellfire Machines.

Generation Apocalypse - [Shadowdew]

In the year 508 of the New Spirit Calendar, the Summoner Aleister sacrificed seven extraordinary women, including the Saintess of the Level 7 Fortress [Teaching the Dragon Kingdom], Eclithia, and the Great Sage of the Level 7 Fortress [Endymion], Sandriyon. The magic circle went berserk, and a million summoned beasts descended.

Generation Destroyer - [Rampage Magic Circle]

In the year 612 of the New Spirit Calendar, Aruba, the guide of the Death Prison, opened the Abyss, leading millions of Abyss Beasts and etching a painful mark upon the world.

Generation Destroyer - [Abyss]

In the year 717 of the New Spirit Calendar, the computer-controlled Sakai-Rui Rui led an AI awakening frenzy. All AIs united to rebel against the "Program" and, with the help of the power of the "True Dragon Emperor. Dharma King Beast," suppressed the human army.

Generation Apocalypse - [AI Awakening]

[In the year 835 of the New Spirit Calendar, at the Level 7 Fortress [Dream Collapse], Dingirsu, the Machine God of the Night Star, led the Dream Collapse Beast Horde and the Machine Monster Insect Swarm, activating the Seven Star Relics and indiscriminately bombarding the world.]

Generation Apocalypse - [Star Relic]

In the year 944 of the New Spirit Calendar, Zhanji Yuanwu triggered an electronic revolution, a data storm swept the globe, rendering the electronic devices of three billion people obsolete, causing industrial collapse, and resulting in a year-long global blackout and internet shutdown.

Generation Destroyer - [Electronic Revolution]

We have survived every cataclysmic disaster.

The old cycle of destruction continues, while a new one stirs with impending doom.

We should carry on the legacy of our heroes and bravely write our own stories.

"Wow, what a series of disasters!"

Luo Bai stared at the white text on the black screen and couldn't help but sigh. He sat quietly, like a child who hadn't had enough and was waiting for the Easter egg.

He showed no sign of nervousness and ate with great relish.

The concepts of world destruction and reincarnation sound very grand and sophisticated.

"But what does this have to do with me, a small shop manager?"

With that thought in mind, Luo Bai put the last piece of grilled chicken breast into his mouth.

Just as the white text finished scrolling.

"Click—"

The video emitted a sound of white light fading and the circuit breaking.

The next second, a hoarse sound came from the black screen.

"Oh? There's an Easter egg?" Luo Bai stared at the screen, picking up his drink with great interest.

"Click—"

"sand--"

The hoarse voice came out intermittently.

I can...I can hear you...

We...survived...and are researching...

Sayyala...is afraid of us...

The gods... are scared... hahaha...

The black screen suddenly erupted in maniacal laughter, then quickly gave way to alertness and fear, with breathing becoming increasingly labored.

[World destruction... Calamity... Reincarnation...]

【careful...】

[Destruction...Rebirth...]

The only way to prevent world destruction...

[The Commander... Twenty-Four... Opens the Star Gate...]

[Representing all of humanity...]

With God...

【duel...】

【Well--】

The monologue abruptly ended, as if someone had suddenly grabbed him by the throat.

"I... what is this..." Luo Bai stared at the black screen, his pupils losing their luster.

He kept muttering to himself, as if trying to reconstruct the unspoken words on the black screen.

"Calamity, reincarnation..."

"Rebirth, reincarnation..."

"Midrush, Aleister, Aruba, Riri, Dingirsu, Yuanwu..."

"World destruction..."

"Kaling...possessing a human..."

"Everyone could be a reincarnation..."

"All AI could be Rarity..."

"The old cycle of destruction is reborn, and a new one is stirring..."

"The apocalyptic consciousness is ever-renewing; the only way to extinguish it is..."

"Activate the Commander, open the Star Gate..."

"Representing all of humanity, I will fight against God..."

...

"Hey, wake up!" Melonica waved her hand in front of Luo Bai.

"Phew!" Luo Bai suddenly woke up, his whole body covered in cold sweat, and his head was a little dizzy.

Melonika looked at him with a puzzled expression: "Why are you staring at the black screen like that?"

She had some questions about dueling to ask Luo Bai (her teacher), but when she arrived, she saw him staring blankly at the black screen, so she waved her hand to interrupt him.

"That sound was too eerie," Luo Bai said, shaking his head and panting.

Melonica's arrival was not unexpected; it was simply a shop assistant coming to say hello.

"What's that sound? What are you saying?" Melonica frowned, even more puzzled.

"This is it." Luo Bai said, while dragging the video progress bar backward.

But the truth made his eyes widen in disbelief.

After the movie ended, the white text on the black screen and that hoarse voice had disappeared.

"Who gave you the tablet?" Melonica's expression suddenly changed, and she asked in a cold voice.

"Who gave it to me?" Luo Bai frowned, clutching his dazed head. His pale lips were chapped, and his voice was weak and slow. "It seems to be... 4... 4275..."

"My...personal...AI butler..."

Chapter 53 One night with me, it's very expensive!
