People are in Star Iron, and the game begins with the unsheathing of Heavenly Fire.

As time went by, Ron gradually gave up on overthinking things.

Even if he knew the truth about the time travel and understood what kind of being a god was, he would most likely still be unable to resist the god who was toying with him at will.

Rather than pondering grand questions like the truth behind time travel, the essence of the world, and the meaning of life, taking care of his own life is clearly the most important thing he should be doing right now... The universe is vast, but life is even greater.

Ron's life is now facing huge problems.

—He's dying.

Literally, he's about to die.

Ron has traveled through many worlds so far, each with its own unique characteristics, some of which are no different from Earth before he traveled there.

Each time he travels to a new world, the system will give him a certain reward. Sometimes it is to give him attributes and skills, and sometimes it is to reward him with special items.

After traversing countless worlds, Ron arrived in this pre-collapse civilization.

Ron had played the game Honkai Impact 3 before, but due to the numerous time travels and the long experience, his memory had been completely worn away. He could only barely recall the most basic things like Kiana and the three starter characters.

After all, Ron's actual age is now far beyond the human lifespan limit, at least several hundred years old. He has greatly extended his life by using modification technology obtained from another world, which is why he looks unchanged.

The passage of time can fade even the most precious memories. Ron had forgotten many things, only remembering that he seemed to have parents and a cute little sister before he transmigrated...

Of course, all of that is now completely irrelevant to him.

After acquiring this unknown system, Ron is frequently transported to various chaotic worlds and forced to complete certain tasks.

Only by completing the mission can one leave the current world.

After arriving in the pre-Honkai civilization, his assigned task was to 'defeat the Herrscher of the End'.

To be honest, any player who has even a slight understanding of Honkai Impact 3rd will know how difficult it is to defeat the Herrscher of the End.

Because in a sense, the Herrscher of the End represents the limit that Earth's civilization can reach. Any civilization within Earth is absolutely unable to contend with the Herrscher of the End.

Although Ron has traveled through many worlds, the most difficult one he has ever encountered was Evolto, the alien coffee shop owner in a certain Kamen Rider Build world who likes to play with black holes and whose coffee tastes terrible.

At that time, Evolto had already experienced the Martian War and was so badly defeated by a Martian queen that even his original body was gone.

Therefore, after Ron traveled back in time, he used his fairly clever mind to successfully steal the Pandora's Box, the tool that Evolto was preparing to use to destroy the Earth, as well as the stone slabs on the sides of the box.

He didn't confront Evolto directly. After completing the system's required tasks, he traveled directly to and left that dangerous world.

He thought that was the most dangerous battle he had ever encountered, and that Evolto, this terrifying alien, was the most abnormal being.

Then he realized he was wrong.

There are differences even among perverts.

The next time, he traveled from the world of Kamen Rider Build to the world of Honkai Impact, and the mission was no longer to fulfill a certain condition, but to directly require him to defeat the End.

Honestly, Ron thought the system wanted him dead.

Given my abilities, I might not even be able to survive the End. To defeat the End head-on, I can only pray for a miracle.

However, this world is not the world of magical girls, and there is no Kyubey who would come out and offer to become a magical girl in exchange for fulfilling a wish.

Ron was almost in despair when he discovered that the reward he received from the Kamen Rider Build world was Pandora's Box and the Stone Tablet.

Given the system's nature, he shouldn't be able to take anything out of the world. Otherwise, Ron would only need to kill and loot the powerful weapons inside the world each time he travels through time.

Each time he transmigrates, he is given a completely different identity, and therefore his belongings are forcibly refreshed and confiscated by the system.

However, the rewards obtained after completing system tasks will appear in the system inventory.

The items in the backpack can be used anytime, no matter which world you travel to.

For this reason, Ron thought of a possible way to defeat the Herrscher of the End: to open Pandora's Box, unleash an attack powerful enough to destroy the Earth, and fight fire with fire by using a black hole to crush the Herrscher of the End!

Of course, achieving this was by no means easy. Ron had been preparing for over twenty years before the collapse of the civilization, making extensive preparations and never revealing his true purpose to anyone.

Finally, he completed all his plans and could use this terrifying artifact from Evolto to try and destroy the End!

[Item: Pandora's Box]

[Description: The box used by the extraterrestrial life form Evolto when destroying a planet. The six stone slabs surrounding it can be opened by filling them with sixty monster energy bottles and achieving the optimal combination, releasing a planet-destroying black hole that will devour everything within the planet.]

[Note: Please be sure to read the instruction manual before use; otherwise, you will be responsible for any consequences.]

[Note 2: Please do not ask where the instruction manual is. It may have been silently guarding the place through wind and rain all along. It turns out that you are the luck I want to keep the most...]

"..."

Every time Ron looked at the item description, he couldn't help but complain about the system's terrible notes.

Even though many of his memories have begun to fade, he still can't help but sing along when he sees the familiar lyrics to "A Little Happiness".

The main problem is that the system comments are not just this outrageous once or twice; there are all sorts of ridiculous flaws almost every time, making one wonder if the person who wrote the system program had a sore throat from drinking too much coffee.

"This is the final battle."

Ron looked up at the Herrscher of the End, whose figure was beginning to emerge in the sky. Its enormous size could not be concealed by the atmosphere, and it was like an incomparably terrifying giant, staring intently at the planet in front of it.

"The law of victory has been determined!"

He slowly took out the last energy bottle from his pocket. It was an energy bottle extracted from Vishnu, the only end-of-life Honkai Beast on the planet, evolved from Kosmo. It was also the only Honkai Beast Factor that could perfectly match the end-of-life Honkai Beast 'Great Shiva' that Alicia called herself!

"Best match!"

Ron stood up as the box made a crisp sound.

"What are you going to do?" Dr. Mei stared at the teacher in front of her. Although he was a school nurse, she had always regarded Ron as a real teacher.

The other party had taught her so much, enabling her to gradually grow to where she is now... But even so, she couldn't guarantee that what Ron was about to do wouldn't destroy humanity.

"What for?" Ron glanced at her and smiled. "I'm just doing something you can't do... You'll just have to witness it for yourselves!"

"witness?"

Ron ignored Dr. Mei and simply waved his hand, and the figure of the super artificial intelligence—Prometheus 17—slowly appeared.

He has now fully acquired all the powers of this quantum computer and used it to reveal to himself the most authentic state of Earth today—

Besides the Herrscher of the End, which has already appeared in planetary orbit and is watching like a final judgment, an incredibly huge tower suddenly appeared on Earth, along with a large number of walls that rose out of thin air from the ground!

"What...is that?" Dr. Mei had never seen anything like it before, and her face showed a confused expression.

With Prometheus's assistance, Ron slowly emerged from the Firemoth's base and instantly traversed a vast distance to reach the very top of Pandora's Tower.

"bring it on!"

At this moment, Ron held the box in his left hand, and his right hand had somehow produced a golden greatsword—the Seventh Divine Key, Judgment of Heavenly Fire!

Before the eyes of all human survivors in the world, Pandora's Box in Ron's left hand suddenly burst forth with astonishing brilliance, and the entire world was drawn to a massive black hole, giving birth to a terrifying force capable of completely swallowing planets!

"A black hole... such a massive black hole, the entire Earth would be sucked in!" Dr. Mei's expression was one of confusion, and she felt an indescribable unease.

The Herrscher of the End also noticed the massive black hole and realized that if it didn't find a way to get out of it, it would be swallowed up by the black hole along with the Earth.

Just as she was about to step back to avoid the black hole's pull, a bright light suddenly shone at the very top of Pandora's Tower!

"Heavenly Fire Judgment - Annihilation Form!"

"Charge rate 1000%!"

The Skyfire Greatsword in Ron's hand emitted a temperature almost comparable to that of a star. Under Prometheus's perfect adjustment, the weapon's power was brought to its limit!

In a short period of time, it can even unleash an attack comparable to a stellar storm!

"Eternal destruction!"

In an instant, terrifying flames tore through the sky.

Under the ultimate release, the flames transformed into an absolute blade.

It's as if the Milky Way has been completely severed!

"boom!"

After a devastating blow, the Herrscher of the End was knocked down and temporarily lost the ability to move, falling towards the black hole!

At the same time, Earth began to be attracted by the black hole, and the earth began to tear apart!

This is a race against time. Will Earth be swallowed up first, or will the Herrscher of the End be crushed by the black hole first?

In this pure contest, the Herrscher of the End voluntarily gave up, turning into scattered energy and disappearing into space.

Before the eyes of all humanity, the Herrscher of the End vanished completely!

Earth survived!

Ron, the chief scientist of the Fire Moth, became the savior of civilization!

……

"Snapped!"

Ron opened his eyes and awoke with a start in an unfamiliar cabin.

"Where am I?" Ron looked around in bewilderment and found himself in a place that looked very advanced, far more advanced than the Firemoth's laboratory.

Most importantly, through the glass, he saw the boundless, dark universe, which proved that his current location seemed to be in space.

"I crossed again?"

Although he had just saved human civilization and defeated the Herrscher of the End, Ron quickly accepted the fact that he had transmigrated once again.

There's no way around it; when you're in the world of martial arts, you're bound to get hurt.

With such a broken system, he gets stabbed in the back every day!

We're used to it, we're used to it.

However, this time travel seems to be quite different from the past. In the past, every time he traveled through time, he would be forced to adopt an identity and integrate into the world as quickly as possible to complete the mission.

This time, not only was no identity given, but no mission was also assigned.

"Oh right, the reward for the last mission."

Ron immediately opened his backpack and looked at the center of the screen.

Then, a pair of pistols with a pale gold casing, radiating an astonishing aura, slowly appeared before him.

[Quest Reward - Seventh Divine Key: Judgment of Heavenly Fire]

The reward has been sent to your inventory.

"???"
