I'm only three years old, how could it be a world-ending catastrophe?

Everyone watching on the screen was astonished to discover this.

The dark area in the sky stopped when it had retreated to only the area of ​​Dongzhou Chaofan Hospital!

The thunderous cheers, like a landslide or a tsunami, came to an abrupt halt.

Everyone's face showed confusion and bewilderment.

What happened?

Why...did it stop dissipating?

next second.

Under the horrified gazes of countless people around the world.

The darkness that had stagnated did not continue to dissipate.

instead……

Once again, it began to spread outwards rapidly, enveloping everything!

The speed was several times faster than when the Void Lord descended.

In just a moment, the entire Dongzhou City was once again shrouded in that despairing silence.

The sunlight, which had just seen the light of day again, was blocked once more.

The smiles on the faces of the people who had just recovered from the euphoria of surviving the disaster instantly froze.

Immediately following was an uncontrollable fear, even deeper than before.

How could this happen?

Wasn't that monster already eaten by that child?

Why...

Why does this darkness reappear?

Everyone's eyes instinctively turned to the air in mid-air.

They turned their attention to the tiny figure who had just saved the world.

then……

Then they saw a scene that was even more incomprehensible and chilling to their scalp.

midair.

The little figure wearing yellow duck overalls suddenly clutched his head in pain.

His small body was trembling violently.

Strange, mysterious patterns began to appear and spread wildly on his skin, and even on his iconic yellow duck overalls.

It was a force greater than when the Void Lord existed.

A purer, more ancient, and more despairing aura of nothingness erupted from Jiang Luo's body.

The warm and domineering golden aura surrounding him was being visibly corrupted by this black aura.

Gold and black intertwine and collide wildly in his domain.

Ultimately, they merged together.

It formed a gray-gold color that was both sacred and evil, a contradiction at its extreme.

What's wrong?

What happened to that child?

In the hospital ward, Zhang Hui and Jiang Hongming felt their hearts clench as they looked at their son's pained expression.

"Lolo!"

Zhang Hui let out a heart-wrenching cry and was about to rush out without a care in the world.

Jiang Hongming held her tightly, his eyes equally bloodshot.

Just then.

A strange laugh, seemingly composed of two overlapping voices, suddenly resounded throughout the world.

Among the laughter was Jiang Luo's childish voice.

The other is the ancient and vast will of the Lord of Nothingness.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"You little beast! You think...you're going to kill me?!"

I heard this sound.

Everyone's mind went blank with a "buzz".

The Lord of Nothingness...

It...it's not dead yet?!

That eerie, overlapping sound, filled with endless resentment and ecstasy, continued to echo in everyone's ears.

You're wrong!

"You simply... invited God into your body!"

The voice of the Lord of Nothingness seemed to come directly from Jiang Luo's mouth.

"I am nothingness!"

"Nothingness is me!"

"I am an existence that is neither born nor dies, eternally immortal!"

"The moment you devoured me, you were destined to become my... perfect vessel!!!"

As its last word fell.

Jiang Luo's body trembled even more violently.

His clear black and white eyes were frantically switching between a bright, lucid look and a deep, dark purple.

Clearly, a fierce battle for possession is taking place within his body.

His chubby little face showed an expression of extreme pain.

"Grass……"

Jiang Luo's consciousness flickered wildly between the intervals of excruciating pain.

He thought he had completely figured out what this stupid dog was all about.

Once its core is found, it can be destroyed with absolute power and then devoured, thus solving the problem once and for all.

He even considered the possibility that the other party might have a backup plan involving possession.

With his twisted mental attributes, he was confident that he could crush any soul that tried to invade his consciousness.

But he never expected this.

This stupid dog... it's not possession at all!

From the very beginning, it had no intention of fighting him for control of the body.

It's about... fusion!

It wanted to completely and inextricably merge its existence with Jiang Luo's soul and the golden power within him!

It will become the new Jiangluo!

And Jiang Luo will become the new Lord of Nothingness!

This is no longer a simple case of a cuckoo taking over someone else's nest.

This is a higher-dimensional, existential level of assimilation!

Jiang Luo could feel that his consciousness was being gradually eroded and assimilated by that all-pervasive power of nothingness.

His memories, his emotions, his humanity... everything that constitutes the individual "Jiang Luo" is being mercilessly devoured by that cold darkness.

If this continues...

It won't be long.

Jiangluo will never exist in this world again.

There was only one who inherited all his power and memories, but whose core was the Void Lord, an even more terrifying... world-destroying calamity!

No!

This absolutely cannot be done!

Jiang Luo's will to survive exploded to its extreme at this moment.

"Get the hell out of here!!!"

He mobilized all his spiritual power, unleashing his golden ocean of energy to launch a furious counterattack, attempting to expel the void power that had invaded his soul.

However, it didn't work.

That void power, like a maggot clinging to his bones, had become inextricably intertwined with his soul and his power.

Each attack failed to drive it away.

Instead, it was like adding fuel to the fire, accelerating the fusion between the two.

Jiang Luoneng could clearly feel that his consciousness was gradually becoming blurred.

Ancient, vast, and destructive fragments of memories that did not belong to him began to flash wildly in his mind.

Those are... the memories of the Lord of Nothingness!

"Give up, little thing."

The alluring voice of the Lord of Nothingness resounded deep within his soul.

"Stop making futile resistance."

"By becoming one with me, you will gain eternal life, and you will become the only god in this world!"

"Those ants you cherish, your family, your friends, I can grant them eternal life and make them the most honored citizens in your divine kingdom."

"As long as... you give up resisting."

Jiang Luo's consciousness wavered for a moment.

eternal life?

Let Mom and Dad...

And Little Nose and his family, are they all immortal?

It seems...not bad?

Just as Jiang Luo was about to be completely swallowed by that enormous power of nothingness, and his consciousness was about to sink to the last moment.

【Ding! 】

A crisp system notification suddenly rang in his mind.

Immediately afterwards, the virtual system panel in front of him began to flash wildly.

It's no longer the monotonous colors of before.

Red, green, yellow, purple... multicolored lights intertwined wildly on the panel, like a malfunctioning neon light.

at the same time.

Dongzhou City, Chunjiang Garden, Building 6.

Deep underground in that building, a similarly colorful light silently shone forth.

The beam of light pierced through the thick soil and reinforced concrete, traversing spatial distances in an incomprehensible way, and instantly appeared above Dongzhou City.

Then, it landed on the small figure that was being swallowed by darkness.

"Jiang Luo, it's time to wake up!"

A gentle yet slightly teasing voice rang in Jiang Luo's ears.

Jiang Luona's fading consciousness jolted violently.

He slowly raised his head.

The darkness that had been encroaching on him vanished.

Instead, there was a pure, boundless white space.

And standing in front of him was a familiar figure.

She was dressed in a well-tailored suit, with a gentle smile on her face, and was looking at him with great interest.

Jiang Luo froze the moment he saw the other person.

"Dad?"

He called out instinctively.

Standing in front of him was none other than Jiang Hongming!

But he quickly realized what was happening.

"No...that's not right!"

Jiang Luo's little face instantly filled with wariness. "You're not my father!"

Upon hearing this, the "Jiang Hongming" in front of him smiled even more broadly.

"I am indeed not your father."

He took two steps forward, stopped in front of Jiang Luo, and then cleared his throat with an air of importance.

"But strictly speaking, I am also one of your fathers."

Jiang Luo was completely dumbfounded.

What does "father" mean?

Are there multiple versions of "father" these days?

"What do you mean?" Jiang Luo's brows furrowed tightly.

A hint of smugness crept into Jiang Hongming's smile.

"Because... I'm your system daddy!"

This name struck Jiang Luo like a bolt of lightning.

His eyes widened as he pointed at the guy in front of him who had his father's face, his voice trembling.

"You...you're that damn system?!"

Jiang Hongming's smile froze, seemingly very dissatisfied with the nickname "Dog System".

"Don't call me that so rudely."

He grumbled, then resumed his inscrutable demeanor.

"Of course, you can also call me Father Divine Tree."

"Or... call me by my real name, your greatest, most invincible, most handsome, and most dashing Heavenly King Father!"

As he spoke, he struck what he thought was a very cool pose.

Looking at him like this, Jiang Luo finally pieced together all the clues in her mind.

"so……"

Jiang Luo looked at him and voiced her guess.

"Are you the divine tree Uncle Xu spoke of? The force buried beneath Building 6 in Chunjiang Garden?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Hongming nodded approvingly.

He had somehow acquired a folding fan in his hand, which he opened with a "snap" and began to gently wave.

"Excellent! This child is teachable."

Jiang Luo understood.

I understand completely now.

So the reason this guy is using his father's face is to take advantage of me!

What a stinky old man, Biden!

of course.

That's not the point right now.

The key point is...

"Since you're so powerful, what do you want to do by transforming into a system and giving me this power? To let me save the world? But can't you do that yourself?" Jiang Luo asked, puzzled.

The other party's appearance at this moment.

That's enough to show that he just wanted to get rid of that stupid dog, the Lord of Nothingness!

Even thinking about it more closely...

It was given to the system to fight against the Lord of Nothingness!

Upon hearing this, Jiang Hongming, or rather, the Heavenly King, put away his folding fan, and the smile on his face faded.

"I am powerful, that's a fact. But my power has a fatal limitation."

"I can only give power away, but I cannot use it for myself."

The Heavenly King sighed, a hint of helplessness in his voice.

"Six hundred years ago, this so-called 'Lord of Nothingness' was just an ordinary person who accidentally stumbled into my slumbering place. It was lucky enough to steal a lot of my power, which is why it has transformed into the world-destroying calamity it is today."

"I feel guilty, I think I caused this mess, and I have to find a way to resolve it."

"Therefore, I bestowed a powerful force upon someone I believed to be of unwavering resolve, hoping that he could completely destroy the [Lord of Nothingness]."

"But I never expected... that person, after gaining power, would only use it to seal the [Lord of Nothingness]."

The Heavenly King shook his head, his eyes filled with disappointment.

"Because he knew very well that killing the [Lord of Nothingness] would bring him no benefit. But as long as the seal remained, as long as this threat of world destruction remained, his family could remain invincible forever, and forever enjoy the awe and worship of the world."

"And that person was the first head of the Zhou family."

"From that day on, I understood that the Zhou family was a hidden danger, and the [Lord of Nothingness] was also a hidden danger; both had to be eliminated together."

"So I waited for six hundred years."

"Until... I discovered you."

The Heavenly King's gaze fell back on Jiang Luo.

"Your soul is very special, extremely special. It is the only soul I have ever seen that can perfectly contain all my power without being overwhelmed."

"So, at the moment you were born, I infused this power into your body."

"But just in case, and to prevent you from being discovered by the Zhou family too early, and even more so to prevent you from becoming a second member of the Zhou family, I have placed some restrictions on your power."

"Originally, this power could only be triggered when I sensed that your life was in danger. That's why you were able to shatter that spatial bubble directly without having a domain at Star Kindergarten."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Luo silently thought, "Oh."

It turned out to be the case.

He said that his powers were sometimes effective and sometimes not.

"But later..."

As the Heavenly King finished speaking, a strange expression appeared on his face.

"Later I discovered that you had come up with a setting in your mind that 'attributes can only be used within a domain'."

"After thinking about it carefully, I feel that this restriction... seems pretty good."

"So... I went along with it and made this setting a reality."

Jiang Luo was completely speechless after hearing this.

After all that, I've been on tenterhooks and acting cautiously for so long.

Is it all because of this unreliable guy who thinks it's "pretty good"?

What kind of nonsense is this?!

He took a deep breath and suppressed the urge to hit someone.

Now is not the time to dwell on this.

Jiang Luo raised her head, looked at the unreliable "father" in front of her, and asked the most crucial question.

"No, since you can't do anything about it, even if you wake me up now, you still can't get rid of this stupid dog inside me."

"What the hell good are you to me after bringing me here?"

When the Heavenly King heard Jiang Luo's question, he raised an eyebrow and his face regained its unfathomable confidence.

"Since I've appeared, I can't be completely useless!"

He held up one finger and shook it.

"Little Luo Luo, you need to understand one thing."

"In this world, there is no problem that power cannot solve."

"If so, then it means... your power is not great enough!"

The moment the words fell.

The Heavenly King reached out and gently touched Jiang Luo's forehead.

That finger gesture looked light and airy, without any force.

But Jiang Luo felt as if his entire mental world had exploded at that moment.

The system panel in front of him reappeared.

On the panel, the numbers representing his various abilities began to soar at an unimaginable speed.

[Strength: 500…1000…5000…9999+]

[Speed: 234…800…4000…9999+]

[Spiritual Energy: 307…700…3000…9999+]

[Defense: 206…500…2000…9999+]

[Comprehension: 142…300…1000…9999+]

[Insights: 160…200…1000…9999+]

In the blink of an eye.

All of his attributes broke through that seemingly unattainable four-digit number, ultimately settling on the simple and straightforward symbol of "9999+".

Jiang Luoneng could clearly feel that an immense and terrifying power, beyond description, was continuously surging from the depths of his soul, filling his limbs and bones.

This feeling...

It felt great.

So awesome!

The Heavenly King withdrew his finger, looked at Jiang Luo's somewhat dazed expression, nodded in satisfaction, and even feigned a look of fatigue on his face.

"Alright, I have released all the power that was restricted within you."

"Now, killing that stupid dog should be as easy as crushing an ant for you."

"But remember, don't go around causing trouble for others just because you think you're so great!"

After speaking, the Heavenly King's figure began to become somewhat ethereal, as if he was about to leave.

Jiang Luo felt the surging power within her body and was overjoyed.

Although the process was a bit tortuous, he was very satisfied with the result.

but……

He looked up at the Heavenly King who was about to disappear and spoke in a childish voice.

"Thanks, old, old, old Bideton."

"However, there's one thing I need to correct."

The Heavenly King, who was about to disappear, paused and asked with interest, "Huh?"

Jiang Luo pursed her lips, her face showing utter disgust.

"You're nothing but a chicken feather! You dare to be my father?"

Go eat shit!

The smile on the Heavenly King's face froze instantly.

"you--"

He was just about to say something.

Jiang Luo was too lazy to pay attention to him anymore, and a thought popped into her head.

The entire pure white mental space shattered with a crash.

……

outside world.

The moment Jiang Luo's consciousness returned to her body.

The voice of the Void Lord, filled with ecstasy and triumph, still roared wildly deep within his soul.

"Give up! Become one with me! You will gain everything! You will become..."

However, this time...

It hadn't finished speaking.

Jiang Luo then felt no pain or pressure.

He just thought...it was a bit noisy.

Jiang Luo's lips curled up slightly, forming a cold arc.

"You stupid dog."

"Shut up, you dog!"

A golden power, many times stronger than before, erupted from the depths of his soul.

That force, like an unstoppable golden tsunami, instantly washed away the void power that had been entrenched in his soul.

"No! This is impossible!!"

The Lord of Nothingness let out a scream filled with extreme terror and disbelief.

"Your power... how could you possibly... this power..."

It cannot understand.

Why was this little thing acting like it was completely at my mercy just a moment ago?

How could his power have surged to such a terrifying level that even he himself could not resist in the blink of an eye?

This is unreasonable!

This is completely unreasonable!

However, Jiang Luo no longer intended to give it any more chance to think or clamor.

A hint of indifference flashed in his eyes, which had regained their clarity.

"Die!"

The golden power erupted completely.

"Aaaaaahh ...

The Void Lord's mournful scream abruptly ceased.

Its original core, which had painstakingly invaded Jiang Luo's body, was instantly crushed into the purest energy by that irresistible golden power, and then... completely absorbed by Jiang Luo's body.

As the last consciousness of the Lord of Nothingness was completely erased.

The dark domain that had shrouded Dongzhou City finally dissipated completely.

The bright sunshine once again bathed this land.

……

The whole world, everyone watching this scene, was stunned.

One second they were feeling endless despair and fear because the child had been possessed by a monster.

The next second, the darkness inexplicably disappeared?

What... what exactly is going on?

Everyone's brains went into a state of shutdown.

Just then.

In mid-air, the tiny figure wearing yellow duck overalls slowly turned around.

He looked down at the bewildered, terrified, and confused faces below, then grinned and revealed a bright smile.

A voice, both childlike and incredibly powerful, was clearly transmitted to everyone's ears through all the live streaming equipment.

"Don't worry, everyone."

"This time, I won!"

"That foolish dog... [The Lord of Nothingness] has completely and utterly vanished from this world!"

The words fell.

The whole world fell into a deathly silence that lasted for several seconds.

Followed by.

boom!!!

A roar of cheers, more intense and frenzied than ever before, exploded in every corner of the globe!

Although they still didn't understand what had just happened.

Although they still couldn't understand why the child had suddenly turned the tables and won.

but……

None of that matters anymore!

The important thing is, they heard it!

That monster is dead!

The apocalypse is over!

That's enough!

Outside the hospital, Wang Wu and all the town prison guards wept with joy, embracing each other, laughing and crying at the same time.

At the Beijing General Bureau, Long Wanjun and all the high-ranking officials slumped into their chairs with a sigh of relief.

At the Nanjiang Provincial Branch, Old Chen was so moved that tears streamed down his face.

In the hospital ward, Jiang Hongming, Zhang Hui, Xu Heng, and Su Jingyi looked out the window at the small figure bathed in sunlight. The tension in their hearts finally dissipated, and smiles finally appeared on their faces.

……

Five minutes later.

While the world is still reveling in the aftermath of the catastrophe.

Jiang Luo's figure had already appeared silently in Lu Yao's hospital room.

Jiahao's enormous golden dragon body emerged from his right eye and quietly coiled above the hospital bed.

Jiahao at this moment is completely different from before.

After Jiang Luo absorbed the vast primordial energy of the [Lord of Nothingness], Jia Hao's power also received unprecedented nourishment and evolution.

Its dragon scales became even more dazzling, each one seemingly cast from the purest gold, radiating a sacred glow.

Its golden vertical pupils became even deeper, as if they contained the profound truth of the birth and death of the universe.

"Let's begin."

Jiang Luo glanced at Lu Yao, who was still unconscious on the hospital bed, and spoke calmly.

"roar."

Jiahao let out a low growl.

It opened its dragon mouth, but this time, it did not exhale golden dragon breath.

Instead, it was a soft, seven-colored ball of light, like a fountain of life.

The ball of light slowly descended and gently merged into Lu Yao's body.

At the bedside.

Jiang Hongming, Zhang Hui, Xu Heng, and Su Jingyi all held their breath, staring intently.

Their hearts were filled with tension and anticipation.

Although Jiang Luo had just saved the world and demonstrated godlike power.

but……

That's Yao Yao.

She is that energetic yet incredibly kind-hearted younger sister, the child who is willing to give her life to protect them.

They were also worried about failure...

Time passed, second by second.

On the hospital bed, a trace of color gradually returned to Lu Yao's pale face.

On the instruments that were maintaining her vital signs, the data that had been so weak as to be almost non-existent began to rise rapidly at an incredible speed.

Heartbeat...

breathe……

vitality……

Everything is moving in a positive direction.

Zhang Hui covered her mouth tightly, tears streaming down her face, afraid that she might cry out and disturb the treatment.

Jiang Hongming held his wife's hand tightly, his palms sweaty.

at last.

Under everyone's watchful eyes.

Lu Yao's long eyelashes trembled slightly.

Then, she slowly opened her eyes.

Her eyes were still somewhat confused and empty, as if she had not yet fully awakened from that endless darkness.

"Lolo..."

"Lolo..."

Her lips moved, and she unconsciously murmured the name over and over again.

That was the last figure she saw before she was plunged into darkness.

It was also one of her biggest concerns.

Jiang Luo walked to the bedside, stretched out her chubby little hand, and gently held her cold hand.

"sister."

"It's all over now."

Familiar voice, familiar temperature.

This finally brought Lu Yao's gaze back to focus.

She turned her head and looked at the small figure by the bedside, at his clear, as always, eyes. The fragmented, chaotic memories in her mind finally began to piece themselves back together.

Although she didn't know what happened after she fell into a coma.

But she could feel that the life force that was rapidly draining from her body had stopped.

A warm and powerful life force is constantly repairing her nearly collapsed body.

She got it.

It was her little Lolo who saved her.

Tears could no longer be held back.

Lu Yao suddenly reached out and hugged Jiang Luo tightly in her arms.

The four people next to him also burst into tears of joy.

Yao Yao can recover...

That's wonderful!

……

After half an hour.

In another ward on the top floor.

Jiang Luo received the news.

That little rascal woke up too.

When he pushed open the door and went in, Xu Niannian was being held in Su Jingyi's arms, her little face still streaked with tears, sobbing intermittently.

The little girl's eyes lit up instantly when she saw Jiang Luo come in.

She struggled to get down from Su Jingyi's arms, and with her still somewhat unsteady little legs, ran towards Jiang Luo.

"Lolo!"

She ran to Jiang Luo, but instead of rushing towards him as usual, she looked up at him with her red, tear-stained face and big, unblinking eyes.

Looking at her, Jiang Luo finally felt a huge weight lifted from his heart.

He didn't say anything, but simply reached out and ruffled her slightly messy pink short hair.

Xu Niannian looked at him, her lips trembled, and tears streamed down her face again.

"Lolo...I'm sorry...I...I still failed to protect Sister Lu..."

She choked back tears, her small shoulders heaving.

She remembered that before she lost consciousness, that villain had knocked everyone down, and that Sister Lu Yao had become like that to protect everyone.

She felt that she was too useless.

Jiang Luo felt both annoyed and amused looking at her self-reproachful expression.

That silly girl.

What time is it, and you're still thinking about these things?

He withdrew his hand and put both hands into the pockets of his rubber duck overalls.

"Alright, stop crying."

"Sister Lu is alright now."

"besides……"

Jiang Luo paused, looking at her big, teary eyes, and a familiar, slightly smug expression appeared on his face.

"You did very well this time, you were really awesome."

Upon hearing this belated praise, Xu Niannian's tears instantly stopped.

She stared blankly at Jiang Luo, seemingly unable to believe her ears.

next second.

She grinned, revealing a smile even brighter than the sunshine.
