My youth story cannot be a knight war

Xu Guoliang suddenly opened his eyes, unable to hide his astonishment.

Although the reason is unknown, Zaimokuza Yoshiteru and Kousaka Kyosuke, who belong to this time period, did come to the future that was previously played on the light screen. Xu Guoliang was aware of this and had helped them avoid a disaster before.

But it was not until he had his hands free and activated his ability to control the book to conduct a survey that Xu Guoliang discovered what the current condition of these two people was.

They have not really come to this era. To put it simply, more than half of them are now in the future, and the other half are still in the past, forming a paradoxical body that is in two time periods at the same time but does not really exist.

Zaimokuza and Kousaka have now become two ghosts wandering in the cracks of time, and can be regarded as "non-existent people" on the factual level.

However, with the advent of the "Ultimate Darkness", the timeline shrouded by it has completely fallen into a state more chaotic than a big stew pot. In this situation, all things hidden in the darkness of time have been pulled out by absolute violence, which has also created the strange existence of the two of them today.

Existing simultaneously in the past and the future, yet its own existence is denied, this logical contradiction is materialized by the mighty power of the higher dimension, becoming the cat whose life or death remains unknown even after the box is opened and observed.

This is an unprecedented state of existence, beyond the imagination of any scientist before. Even Einstein's theory of relativity has never explained this way of existence involving multiple levels of reality and concepts.

And it is not people of the past or future who observe their existence, but people of the present.

The present time period has the space-time coordinates of their existence. As the two saviors of the future that has been determined, the proportion they occupy in this history far exceeds that of others. When the future is settled, the past has also determined the direction leading to this future.

Therefore, their conceptual disappearance is bound to cause significant distortion and gaps in the world itself. In order to fill this gap, the world's protection mechanism begins to search for them. A connection analogous to quantum entanglement also extends from the time period in which the two disappeared to the future in which they are now active.

Therefore, people in the past were able to observe the future from the sky. This was not only due to the power of "Ultimate Darkness", but also because of the disappearance of Zaimokuza and Kousaka.

But it doesn’t matter anymore. Now Xu Guoliang is so excited that he wants to kiss them directly.

You guys did a great job! You did a great job!

Because this is a miracle, a real miracle. Even though they were saviors in the past, they are now just two ordinary high school students, and they have created hope for the world that can change its destiny!

Because of them, Xu Guoliang can not only indirectly use the driving book to collect the power of faith generated by people when observing future developments, but he can also use the time coordinates provided by the two people who are now half a foot in the future to transmit this power through this connection, through the time flow that has become completely chaotic and disordered, and transport it to the future.

Especially the latter, which is the key that can truly change everything. Without coordinates, it is impossible to locate where this future time point is.

"You really gave me a big surprise, my friends."

With his hands stroking the driving book on his waist, Xu Guoliang's eyes gradually changed from surprise to seriousness. He knew that his next move would be the final key point.

As long as he could convey this power from everyone's prayers to the future, Zaimokuza might be able to wake up again, and even become even more powerful, strong enough to rival Daguba!

He took a deep breath, closed the open driving book, and then pressed his hand on the "transmission drive" button. Xu Guoliang pressed the button with a firm expression.

Da-da-da!

The finger pressed three times in succession, and as the number of presses increased, the closed driving book opened three pages in succession, directly reaching the last page of the entire book.

The cover of this page is a rotating blue planet. In the dark and dim universe, gem-like stars are shining faintly, and countless "stories" are born on this planet as it rotates.

"THE STORY OF THE WORLD OPENING!"

As this passionate male voice sounded, powerful force gathered on Grutidhede, and the silver-white sword body burst into dazzling white holy light. This light supported a small world of light under the darkness above.

"Go, take this power—"

Holding the sword in both hands, Xu Guoliang used up his last bit of strength, gritted his teeth and gasped as he spoke.

"——Everyone is waiting for you! So wake up!"

"Zaimu seat!!!"

Roaring angrily, he swung the sword fiercely. The silver-white blade left a deep white shadow in the dark starry sky as it was swung. Wherever the sword reached, the space was filled with the sound of tearing silk.

A white "scar" appeared in the space in front of him under the sword's slash, and then suddenly opened to both sides, revealing the scene inside.

The scene revealed inside is like being on a rushing black river, but all you can see is the black "river surface" rushing around. In these heterogeneous flowing waters, countless scenes like video frames emerge one by one, and then disappear as the water flows.

In that short time, Xu Guoliang witnessed the execution of Joan of Arc, the offering of sacrifices to the gods on Mount Tai after Qin Shi Huang unified the six kingdoms, and the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, his holy blood covering the rusted bronze cross...

This is the materialized flow of time, extremely chaotic. After the arrival of the "Ultimate Darkness", the entire world's originally linear conceptual timeline has become what it is today. It is impossible to distinguish which side is the past and which side is the future. Different timelines are all mixed together.

Xu Guoliang's eyes, which were not covered by the helmet, shone with a holy white glow. He stared intently at the chaotic flow of time, trying to find his goal in it.

After losing the protection of the helmet, he looked directly at the concept of time that humans cannot understand with his physical eyes. Both his body and mind were under tremendous pressure. Countless streams of information poured into his mind through his naked eyes, both useful and useless information flowed into it, and the speed did not slow down at all.

The brain was under a huge information load, and the only normal left eye began to quickly become congested. Bright red blood flowed from the right corner of the eye downwards, causing indescribable pain.

But Xu Guoliang still did not choose to stop. He suppressed the severe pain in his brain as if it was pierced by long needles and increased the power of his ability.

Finally, when that point of white light emerged in the endless darkness, Xu Guoliang suddenly raised his hand, and the white light gathered in the palm of his hand.

——It’s now!!!

The light bloomed from the palm of his hand, and a beam of white light shot into the boundless darkness of time, moving straight towards the only remaining light in this time flow, spanning one history and future after another.

This light is shaped by the wishes of everyone in an era. It passes through countless histories that are caught up in darkness, moves towards the destined end, and blooms its power in order to change this destined fate.

In the river of time, the concept of physical distance has lost its meaning, but Xu Guoliang can still see this light getting closer and closer to the light spot flashing at the end of time, and hope has sprouted in his heart.

Those scarlet eyes couldn't help showing joy, if that was the case then——

wow-

The black "river" suddenly surged up, bringing with it biting cold and darkness.

In the darkness of the endless night, even though the light is faint, it is dazzling enough to attract the attention of the darkness.

The evil heart is revealed.

Before the light was about to arrive, endless black fog seeped out from the dark river of time, filling the glimmer of light flickering at the end of time and completely swallowing up that light.

"!!!!!!"

Xu Guoliang's face twitched violently. He looked at the diffuse black fog in disbelief and just wanted to shout No no no!

The light crashed into the black fog, but instead of illuminating it, it was completely swallowed up by it.

In the face of the darkness of the higher dimension, even this light, which is the illusion in the hearts of people all over the world, is so insignificant.

Xu Guoliang immediately prepared to take back this power, but after being touched by the light, the black fog suddenly spread out, and from the end of time, it rushed rapidly towards the past where the light set sail, and swallowed up everything along the way!

Even though the light was receding at a faster speed, and Xu Guoliang tried his best to close the time gap, black mist still overflowed and hit his chest before the gap closed.

"puff--"

Xu Guoliang was directly knocked out, and after falling to the ground, he rolled on the huge book. He only stopped when he was about to reach the edge of the page, and did not fall into the dim starry sky below.

But even so, it was not much better. Most of his breastplate was shattered by this attack. At the same time, the power of darkness once again stained his body with this attack. The devilish black lines reappeared on his skin, bringing intense erosion pain.

But the physical pain was no match for the surging emotions in Xu Guoliang's heart. He slowly crawled to the edge of the book, and every word he uttered was squeezed out from between his clenched teeth.

“It’s the ‘Ultimate Darkness’—damn it!!!!”

The muffled sound of his fists hammering on the pages of the book replaced the incompetent roar and echoed in this broken space. Xu Guoliang hammered like crazy and did not stop until the armor covering his hands shattered, revealing his arms that had become a bloody mess.

This is not surprising. As long as a normal person is suddenly knocked into the abyss of failure again and again when he is about to succeed, the drastic change of emotions moving continuously between two extremes can defeat even the most determined person.

And how many times has Xu Guoliang failed because of this? The fact that he hasn't lost his mind to this day is enough to prove his mental fortitude. He is definitely a qualified Kamen Rider.

But Kamen Rider is just a human wearing a mask, and he is a human being, so there will be a time when he will be knocked down, no matter who it is.

After beating for nearly three minutes, Xu Guoliang finally raised his bloody hands, covered his face with them, and let the blood flow down.

He now had some understanding of what the mysterious voice had meant by "true despair."

Because Xu Guoliang is feeling desperate and filled with anger. Why? Why?

Why is it always like this, when every hope just appears, fate will ruthlessly bury this hope?

This world, this story... can't there really be a happy ending?

The surging emotions in his heart slowly subsided, and Xu Guoliang put down his hands, revealing his face that had become extremely haggard after being soaked in blood.

"Despair and decadence will only become a hindrance to progress... This statement is indeed very true."

Remembering the other words the voice said before it disappeared, Xu Guoliang tried hard to put the despair behind him and think of another solution.

It has been quite a while since the voice disappeared, and if the other party is not lying, then the world is now less than an hour away from destruction.

There is no room for frustration in this short period of time. We must immediately think about where the real hope of breaking the deadlock lies.

Abandoning all useless information and focusing on the essence of the problem, Xu Guoliang mobilized his exhausted brain and searched for hope.

The "Ultimate Darkness" is a power from a higher dimension, and it descends to——reject, it is meaningless.

Can the power of people's faith bypass this dark blockade? - Rejected, the risk is too great.

Looking for a new time node, whether it can be conveyed earlier - rejected, wishful thinking.

……

Countless pieces of information flowed through his mind. Xu Guoliang roughly peeled off every nerve in his brain, looking for ways to let the information flow, but they were all rejected one by one. Time passed silently, both quickly and slowly.

At some point, his racing thoughts suddenly stopped, and he recalled the words of the mysterious voice:

"And now you have become the only hope. This hope is hidden in the book that drives you. This driving book is a page in the devil's book that records everything. It holds the disaster of world destruction, but also the dawn of salvation."

"Hope... lies in the Book of Control."

Click.

Muttering these words, Xu Guoliang reached out and pulled out the driving book from the driver on his waist. He held the driving book that came from him in both hands, with deep confusion in his eyes.

Is hope truly hidden in this driving book? This book was born from him, and it is also——

Wait... a crazy idea came to his mind, and his hands holding the driving book trembled uncontrollably. Xu Guoliang's eyes were as ferocious as a demon who died unjustly, or a red-eyed gambler who was desperate.

Xu Guoliang thought about it and realized that this might indeed be a hope. No matter how crazy and fantastic it was, this idea might really be the only feasible hope now!

The book for controlling all living beings was created by Xu Guoliang, but there is a prerequisite before that, that is, this book for controlling all living beings is a fragment of the book of omniscience and omnipotence!

Without the given fragment, this book would not have been possible. Before it became his driving book, it was part of the Book of Omniscience.

The Book of Omniscience and Omnipotence is a supreme book that transcends the understanding of life. The power it possesses cannot be described simply as God or the devil, because even these two extend from this book.

It is both the destined fate and the hope of creation. It is the forty-nine that dominate the heavens, and it is also the one that escaped.

The power of this book is not limited to this world, but also includes the ability to...

puff~

His heart beat slowly, and holding the book, Xu Guoliang's eyes flashed with an indescribable light.

"...I don't know if I'm crazy or if the whole world has gone awry, but I want to give it a try."

He put the driving book representing his dream back into the drive and closed it again. There was a trace of struggle in his eyes, but it was nothing compared to the madness and pleading in his eyes at this moment.

"The Book of Omniscience and Omnipotence, it is both despair and hope. For all worlds, this book is the true observer."

Stroking the driving book, Xu Guoliang raised his head and looked at the still darkness above.

"—And this book, even if only its fragments are left, should be able to communicate with a higher world beyond the comprehension of this world, just like the complete version. Just like the 'Ultimate Darkness', it can obtain the power from that higher dimension."

"so……"

With his thumb pressing the button on the controller, Xu Guoliang lowered his head, and there was an unconcealable tremor in his voice.

"Assuming this world itself is a 'story,' a world born from stories just like Wonder World, then there must be other observers, observers who don't belong to this world... I don't know if you even exist."

"But if there really is someone observing this story as I think, then... please lend your power to me, to him, and to the world."

"Let this 'story'—open up a brand new ending!"

While expressing his wish, Xu Guoliang suddenly pressed the button, and pressed it three times in a row.

『THE STORY OF THE WORLD OPENING! 』

But this time, he had no intention of stopping, even though he had already turned to the last page of the driving book and there was no more book to turn to.

"I'm counting on you, all living beings."

Looking at this shining driving book, Xu Guoliang clenched his teeth, but his voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible.

"For this world, for this story...give me strength!!!"

Click.

The finger pressing the button lifted and pressed it again.

hum-

The incredible thing happened before my eyes.

The driving book, which should have been read to the end, lit up with a warm white light. Behind this last page, a brand new page was slowly shaped by the light.

This is a page made purely of light, illusory and unreal, but it begins to slowly push open the previous page and turn the pages.

This page of the book does not have a unique pattern, but the passionate male voice that controls the book reveals the true name of this page.

"THE STORY WE OPENED!"
