Lucky billion players, you've never seen one before / I can accumulate my own luck

"So, I created a game with the main theme of conquering the unknown and adventure, to assist human evolution and to give humanity power..."

Thus, with various struggles continuing within the human race, and aided by the evolution game, humanity rapidly ventured beyond its planet and into the universe.

As the level of spiritual awakening increases, the "god" becomes more and more powerful, and its perception transcends a single world, gradually spreading to other worlds.

As a result, more and more humans were drawn into this game called evolution.

"God" completely liberated humanity's animalistic nature.

This game, with its main theme of conflict, has spread to more and more parts of the world.

Countless human tragedies have occurred.

Countless morally unacceptable incidents have occurred.

However, "God" doesn't care.

"God" only cares about whether humanity is powerful and can continue to exist.

Wherever there's a problem, "God" will fix it and bring everything back to normal.

Even if this distorts the lives of countless people and causes a large number of humans to disappear, as long as the outcome is on the right track, "God" will not care about these sacrifices.

"God" firmly believes that humanity, under His guidance, will inevitably become the most powerful group in the entire multiverse.

It was in this environment that Anna was born as an S-class psionic potential user.

However, Anna's childhood was not happy; in short, it was full of misfortune.

She was born on a chaotic planet where the political system was destroyed by players. When she was eight years old, her family was killed by cannibalistic players who happened to be passing by, and she was the only one who escaped thanks to her innate superpowers.

At the age of 10, her hometown was destroyed in a war sparked by player conflicts. All her friends and the elders who cared for her were killed in the war. Surviving again, she boarded an interstellar spaceship by chance, thus beginning her life of wandering in space.

At 15, she stopped her wandering and joined an anti-god organization, beginning the third chapter of her life...

What happened next was similar to what Fan Xiao experienced in the "Trial of Divinity"—the difference being that Fan Xiao's experience was only a microcosm, while Anna's experience was much more complex.

Her tumultuous fate forged her steely will.

And so she went further and further down the path of rebellion against God, until one day... "God" noticed her.

Despite their disadvantage, everyone in the anti-god organization made the choice to sacrifice themselves, voluntarily becoming nourishment to enhance her power to fight the gods.

Anna was thus forced to use the Angel of Death, personally slaughtering her friends, comrades, and predecessors... slaughtering the entire anti-god organization and all humans who stood on the organization's side, becoming the most powerful player in the history of the Evolution Game.

Then, she embarked on a journey to slay the gods.

Even a god would have to give way to her direct attack.

As a result... God changed the past, distorted history, eliminated the anti-God organization at its root, and resolved the matter.

Under extreme emotional stress, Anna awakened her divinity and survived in the new timeline through her undying will.

However, all the people she knew had disappeared.

She became a ghost who survived from the previous era.

From then on, killing gods and liberating all mankind became her lifelong wish and belief.

And so she began her long and arduous struggle against God...

……

“At first, I didn’t understand Anna’s behavior or her hatred for me. I was promoting the evolution of all mankind. Under my guidance, mankind has left the planet, gone into the universe, and entered multiple dimensions. I don’t understand why she, as a member of humanity, would hold such a degree of hatred for me, to the point of wanting to erase my existence.”

The divine maiden slowly recounted the past: "Later, in the process of fighting against her, I tried to understand her. I divided many of my consciousnesses and sent them to the human world."

"As a weak and poor ordinary person, as a wealthy nobleman, as a player who is either strong or weak... I have experienced the lives of many different classes of people."

"After all these consciousnesses returned and merged into my main consciousness, I... finally understood Anna's hatred."

She sighed, "However, it's all too late."

"I wanted to make amends, but Anna refused to communicate with me at all and just wanted me to disappear completely."

"She was trying everything she could to kill me, and I was forced to put up a series of resistance."

With a wave of her hand, she brought the timeline of this higher-dimensional space-time to her front.

The scene depicts many fantastical races, all of which share one thing in common: they are all at war with humanity.

"I created multiple fantasy races: demons, insectoids, elves... all to thwart Anna's plans to kill me."

The celestial maiden continued, “But that didn’t stop Anna’s determination to kill me. Our confrontation reached its most intense point, our psychic powers intertwined, colliding continuously through the medium of ‘past’ and ‘present,’ and finally… we each plundered half of each other’s power.”

"The rules behind S-class psionic power are the pillars of multidimensional spacetime. The fragmentation of authority also led to the collapse and tearing of the time structure of multidimensional spacetime, and thus two eras emerged."

"Anna has begun to lay the groundwork in another era that has sprung up... Child, what happens next is just what you know."

"..." Fan Xiao remained silent.

The divine maiden continued, "Child, everything I'm doing now is for my own survival... I want to live."

"..."

Fan Xiao... fell into a mental predicament for the first time in a long time.

From Anna's perspective, he would probably do the same thing as Anna.

From God's perspective... God understood human nature, recognized his own mistakes, and had to fight against those who were after his life in order to protect himself. Everything was just to survive, which doesn't seem wrong.

But right and wrong here are determined by one's stance.

His position was the same as Anna's; he was human, so he could not forgive God for what He had done to humanity on behalf of those who had disappeared.

But God truly did help him...

No, he had no choice at all!

Regardless of whether Anna intends to kill the gods, she will surely protect the present of this era and the pan-cosmic human empire.

Once "now" is anchored here, it means that the era he lives in will be heading towards the end of restarting and disappearing.

At that time, his family, partner, friends... everything he knows will disappear.

If he wants to protect all of this, he must make Anna's era disappear and allow the course of history to enter his era in a reasonable way.

Now it is up to him to decide!

He must kill Anna, destroy the pan-universe human empire, and indirectly or directly slaughter countless humans.

This is an irreconcilable contradiction determined by one's position.

However... this is not his style.

This clashed severely with his great personality and noble character.

What should he do?

After a moment of silence, Fan Xiao asked, "Mother, is it possible for timelines to coexist in parallel now?"

"Child, I know what you're thinking."

The divine maiden gently shook her head: "What we're dealing with now is the convergence of the entire multiverse timeline, not a single world. The parallel existence of this ending is impossible."

"You and Anna can both survive on your own, but only one of the two eras can exist in the end."

"Even if Anna doesn't anchor herself to this present era, the multiple timelines will heal themselves, the fractured river of time will close again, and amidst the conflict..."

"Will my era disappear?" Fan Xiao asked.

“Yes,” the divine girl replied, “because the origin of your era is false; everything stems from my and Anna’s scheme. If you want to preserve that era, you must destroy Anna’s era and allow history to enter your time in a legitimate way.”

Fan Xiao sighed and said, "Mother, have I been tricked by you with an open scheme?"

"My child, your birth was completely unexpected."

The divine girl shook her head and answered very honestly, "Neither Anna nor I care about the survival of your era. In our eyes, it's all just a scheme."

"For me, the most important thing is to survive. What the future of humanity will be like, whether it will turn to self-destruction again without my guidance... I can't care about that anymore."

"But for Anna, what matters is 'now,' and killing me."

"Your birth was an accident, unexpected by everyone. Your antagonism with Anna was not part of my plan; it is more like... your fateful confrontation with her."

After a pause, she stated her final position: "Child, I hope you can help me survive, and for that, I can grant you any request."

Upon hearing this, Fan Xiao stared at the goddess for a few seconds, thinking that she was probably being driven to the point of fear by Anna.

God's power and size far exceed his current level.

If we had to find a frame of reference to define it, it would probably be... cosmic level.

Anna, who is fighting against God, must also be at this stage.

Yet this powerful god, just like her appearance, now resembled a distressed young girl, humbly pleading for his help... He was at a loss for words.

"Gods are naturally advanced beings, without periods of weakness or struggle for growth, and without any peers to exchange ideas and broaden their knowledge. Such gods are very fragile in terms of mentality, which seems... quite reasonable."

Fan Xiao was able to determine that "God" was not lying.

At this point, there's no need or point in lying anymore.

Fan Xiao fell into a prolonged silence.

The fairy maiden was not impatient and silently waited for him to finish his thoughts.

After an unknown amount of time had passed, Fan Xiao suddenly asked, "Mother, are you sure there's no other way?"

“I don’t have any more here,” the divine girl shook her head, but she didn’t rule out the possibility: “However, while the multiverse is infinite, my thoughts and knowledge are limited. Perhaps there is a way that I don’t know about that can solve all of this.”

“I have a plan here that’s almost a conjecture, which I think is feasible, but the outcome is unknown.” Fan Xiao asked, “Mother, would you be willing to give up everything and take this gamble with me?”

"Give up everything?" the divine maiden asked. "Everything... includes life?"

"The three S-class psionic powers are the three pillars of creation in the multiverse."

Fan Xiao said, "If we can gather these three pillars, is it possible to create a second multidimensional spacetime, and use these two multidimensional spacetimes to support two different timelines?"

"If possible, then both eras can be preserved."

“My ‘quantum immortality’ can hold the ‘twin angels’ and then another ‘Old One’… Although I haven’t tried it, the possibility exists.”

He paused for a moment and then said, “To carry out this plan… Mother, you must give up everything you have, give up your freedom, give up your divine body, and hand everything over to me, completely merging into my spirit.”

"At that time, you will probably be like my angel, completely bound to my life. As for me... I will have to face the awakening test of 'quantum immortality' and let this spiritual energy fully awaken. Mother, your power can just assist my awakening process and accelerate the miracle of the three S spiritual energies converging in one person."

"However, whether I can successfully pass the awakening test and survive... is unknown. If I fail the awakening test, you will perish with me."

"So...giving up everything here also includes giving up life."

"..."

The divine maiden fell into a long silence.

This time, it was Fan Xiao's turn to wait patiently.

His suggestion was tantamount to putting a collar on God and controlling everything about Him.

Moreover, his proposed solution was to first merge with God before initiating the awakening test of "quantum immortality," rather than waiting for him to pass the awakening test first before merging with God.

It's like dragging a god along with him to risk his life.

Here, he was considering more than just the fact that the "Old Ones" would help him with his awakening test, so he had to integrate with them first and then put him to the test.

He also considered another point—he was testing God to see if God truly deserved his help.

Although he could understand the mistakes God had made, he was still human and could not completely abandon his human perspective to forgive God's past actions... However, God had ultimately helped him a great deal, and he felt obligated to repay God both emotionally and rationally.

Therefore, he chose to give God a chance to be a teammate, comrade-in-arms, and companion.

He and Anna appear to be complete enemies, but in reality... if he were to abandon his own era and only bring a few close to him to settle in Anna's era, using the "chastity" of his guardian angels to protect them and resist the contradictions of time, allowing these people to live with him in this era... although he would be a deserter, this plan is feasible and carries no risk whatsoever.

At that time, without his help, God would probably die at the hands of the ever-growing Anna.

He is willing to help God.

But he needs God to be as enlightened as He is.

After a long silence, the divine maiden said, “Child, I can sense that Anna, who has forcibly merged with the power, is gradually going mad, but her will is undying. She… may eventually become a monster who only knows revenge, the most terrifying monster in the multiverse, a monster that has lost its mind… Although she wants to kill me, I… have always wanted to make amends to her. She is also my child.”

She let out a soft sigh: "I've lost count of how many times I've altered the past. The number of people I've indirectly killed is astronomical. I'm tired of the war with Anna. I don't want to continue..."

At this moment, Goddess's tone was very much like that of a human being... no, at this moment, she was a human being.

She had already come to understand human nature through her confrontation with Anna, and understood why Anna harbored such great hatred for her.

She had always wanted to make amends and repair the rift.
