It's time to become an evil god.

I'm completely unable to move anymore, so let's stop here.

Images from the past flashed through his mind like a revolving lantern. He slowly closed his eyes, awaiting death.

However, in the next instant, all the advancing black goat offspring stopped in their tracks, as if sensing some danger, and collectively took a step back, halting in place.

High above, a continuous, tremendous tremor resounded, as if something was rapidly falling to the ground.

Faust looked up and saw one after another enormous, hideous insect hives plummeting rapidly, flashing brilliantly as they rubbed against the atmosphere, tearing through the thick clouds and crashing into the earth.

The scattered insectoid fleet slowly approached, like dark clouds pressing down on the city, obscuring the sky.

Densely packed, blotting out the sky and the sun.

The bio-armor on the fleet opened simultaneously, and millions upon millions of insect swarms flew out of the cabins, seemingly unaffected by the residual high temperatures, and plummeted rapidly toward the ground.

"Could it be another new god?"

Faust felt a deep despair. If the Black Goat's offspring had a sliver of chance of victory before him, the massive, dense swarm of insects before him would be a nightmare that haunted him until his death.

"No! That's not right, these swarms of insects aren't Outer Gods at all,"

When Faust saw the Bilibili (Bilibili is a Chinese video sharing website) flag fluttering in the wind above the insect hive, he could no longer contain himself. He clenched his hands excitedly and muttered to himself, "It's him! It seems he really did it!"

A woman in a long dress stood on the deck of a massive Zerg hive warship, a stark contrast to the ugly, gnarled swarm of Zerg behind her, poised and ready to pounce.

She raised her hand and said softly, "Upholding the will of the Hive Master..."

"To swallow the whole world whole, leaving nothing behind."

Chapter 603 The God-Slaying Plan

The black goat offspring were initially able to withstand the frenzied slaughter from the insect hive, with the ground littered with the corpses of the swarm. However, unexpectedly, a much larger drilling worm suddenly burst forth from the rock strata, raising a cloud of dust that blotted out the sun and covered most of the sky.

Amidst the dust-shrouded city, the deafening, agonizing howls of a monster echoed.

This giant monster, originally designed to frantically draw heat energy from the depths of the magma mantle, evolved into an indestructible armor. Even the offspring of the black goat could not break through that thick shell with sharp spikes. However, after being entangled at close range, the giant worm suddenly opened its mouth, and the mouth flowing with mucus and acidic corrosive liquid swallowed the pitch-black offspring of the black goat in one gulp.

The spiral-shaped, sharp-toothed mandibles spun continuously, and the black goat offspring let out painful howls. The entire scene of devouring was brutal and bloody, and even Faust, who was one with the ancient god, looked on in horror at the sight.

"What kind of power has this guy obtained...?"

More and more giant worms emerged from the ground, frantically tearing at the ancient god's body. The terrifying ancient god's body was actually chewed up, blood and flesh flying everywhere. They even ignored the cries of their offspring and swallowed them whole.

The giant worm was like a highly efficient devouring machine, consuming all matter on the planet and converting it into a continuous source of energy for its hive. Faust looked up; a dazzling planet appeared in the sky. This moving planet was not a star, but the true hive, relentlessly consuming all sorts of life forms driven by an inexhaustible power source.

Faust soon discovered that the swarm of insects had left nothing but barren land, even the buildings of human civilization had vanished, and the entire ground had become a desolate wasteland.

"Just how terrifying are these monsters?"

Faust finally understood why the offspring of the black goat were also filled with fear; these swarms of insects were nothing short of a meat grinder that could destroy everything.

Even the most revered gods, once they disappear from the material world, will cease to exist as legends.

"This guy has even surpassed the Outer Gods. Could he become a new god?"

In Faust's eyes, White Song has become a being with terrifying potential for growth, who may one day become the one to replace Azathoth.

At this moment, all the insect swarms are continuously invading different instance worlds.

Thanks to the immense evolutionary potential of the insect hive, Bai Ge wasn't worried about fighting on multiple fronts. Even when facing formidable opponents, he could quickly develop corresponding evolutionary strategies to exploit their weaknesses. Soon, most of the dungeon world had been completely destroyed by the passing insect hives.

Meanwhile, in the instance world before the insect swarm invasion, the cities remain bustling, vibrant, and dazzling.

The city, glittering in the darkness, and the bustling crowds on the streets, were completely unaware that a terrible disaster was about to befall them.

A man in a trench coat walked on the sidewalk. The trench coat was stained with dirt and blood, and his leather shoes were covered in mud and dust. His travel-worn appearance was in stark contrast to the cheerful atmosphere around him.

There was a ring of purplish-blue marks on his wrist. He had just escaped from the police station and had only taken two steps while hiding in the crowd when the people around him suddenly froze, holding their pose for a moment, as if the whole world had been frozen in time.

From the crowd, a little girl in a red dress slowly stepped out. Her fair face looked at the unshaven middle-aged man in front of her, and she said softly, "You've finally come."

"If I don't come soon, things will get out of control. He has now invaded most of the dungeon worlds, and a significant portion of the lower-level Great Old Ones and the provinces have become food for the hive."

"As agreed beforehand, I have already made that deal with you."

The little girl said, "As a way of repaying you, you should know what I want, right?"

"That brat is definitely stronger than his father. I thought I could handle it all by myself, but in the end I still have to ask my son for help."

A self-deprecating, helpless expression played on the man's lips. He snapped his fingers, and an orange-red butterfly instantly appeared at his fingertips, fluttering about. The butterfly landed on a cigarette, lighting the butt.

The man took a deep breath, exhaled smoke from his eyes, and said, "Don't you just want to obtain my body? The reason you survived the gamma-ray explosion was because I possessed a portion of Atatus's power."

The man didn't rush to answer the other person's question, but instead started talking about another story.

"After I gained that power, I made many meaningful attempts. Even in the unexpected quantum conversion experiment on November 9, 1959, I replaced Dr. Manhattan, felt my body being annihilated, and my mind being taken to a non-material realm. I saw a much wider world. Those so-called high and mighty Outer Gods, including the Evolutionary Game, you may think you have escaped the fate of increasing entropy, but in the end, everything will return to nothingness."

The little girl's body suddenly flickered; he seemed somewhat confused about the meaning behind the other person's words.

"What do you mean?"

"In the face of true cosmic significance, everything else is meaningless. Life and death are a cycle, and the ways of heaven are unpredictable."

Bai Zhengyu sighed silently, tossed away his cigarette, and said, "Ever since I gained that power, I've been pondering a question: how can I make the Ancient God, the Outer God, and you disappear at the same time?"

"What your ancestors called 'severing the connection between heaven and earth'?"

The little girl sneered, "Impossible. Nordens, who created me, had the same idea."

"Yes."

Bai Zhengyu sighed, "That's why I created so many clones in the instance world to confuse you. There's only one thing I need to do, which is to pull the Ancient Gods, Outer Gods, and you into another world. But before that, as a father, I still have a little scheme in mind. I hope my son can use the power of the Hive to wipe out those remaining remnants of the gods."

The little girl felt a sudden, inexplicable tension grip her. Many illusory, dark figures appeared in the surrounding crowd, gradually approaching her.

"I have now gathered all my clones back."

Bai Zhengyu clasped his hands together, a calm smile on his lips, completely unconcerned about the crazy plan he was carrying out.

"The plan to kill gods with mortal bodies is about to begin."

Chapter 604 Ragnarok

More and more figures appeared in front of her, even more than the dense crowd on the street, the dark figures enveloping the little girl in red.

Some were workers in overalls and safety helmets, some were doctors in white coats, and others were students carrying backpacks. They all looked like ordinary people who couldn't be more ordinary.

Those are all clones of Bai Zhengyu in other parallel worlds, whose purpose is to interfere with the plans of the Outer God and the Evolution Game, help the players deal with the gods who are about to be revived, and return to the main body after all the plans are completed.

The little girl turned her head and looked at the man in front of her. "No wonder I felt the power of Atatos in all the dungeons. It turns out that you distributed all the power of the gods evenly, like a virus spreading wildly, parasitizing my system. Destroying you is the same as destroying myself."

“If it weren’t for binding you and me together, you would never have lowered yourself to sign a contract with me.”

“Watch your words, Mr. Bai. That was an unequal treaty. If I had known it would end like this, I should have eliminated your child in the copy.”

The little girl in red revealed her true colors, exposing a ferocious expression as she coldly stared at him.

However, Bai Zhengyu had a fearless expression, saying, "You can try, but if this is all my son is capable of, then there's nothing more to say."

"But don't worry. Our contract is still in effect, and you will eventually have to hand over the body with the power of Azathoth to me."

The little girl cried out frantically, "Give it to me! Humans are destined to be enslaved!"

However, the man before her showed no sign of panic, remaining calm as he softly said, "From now on, we are no longer puppets of fate."

"No longer fooled by the gods."

"Gods have no right to point fingers at mortals, nor do they have the right to decide the fate of mankind."

He looked at the god before him and said, "I signed a contract with you before, so our deal is valid. I will give you my body."

"However, the contract we signed did not specify who had the right to use the body."

The little girl was stunned for a moment. The evolution game had been toying with the fate of humanity for a long time, and even people in other parallel worlds never cared. They took it for granted that the other party could only obediently accept it and had no room for resistance.

But when she saw that smug look on his face, the little girl felt a chill run down her spine.

"Now, let's begin."

The surrounding shadows began to become transparent and ethereal, transforming into streaks of light that merged with Bai Zhengyu. At this moment, having absorbed enough divine power, Bai Zhengyu was no longer able to maintain his original human form.

His entire body began to swell and expand continuously, and his legs transformed into countless fine mycelia that adhered to the earth. At this moment, Bai Zhengyu could no longer be seen as a living person. He was like a giant tree that was constantly spreading and growing, with countless ferocious and terrifying eyeballs growing on the tree, constantly rotating and focusing on the little girl in red in front of him.

"You... you actually unleashed the power of Azathoth."

According to the agreement they signed, Baek Jung-woo was supposed to dedicate his soul, body, and even the power of Azathoth to the Evolution Game. However, Baek Jung-woo released all his power beforehand and merged with the Evolution Game.

The power of that outer god was rapidly eroding the instance and assimilating it into the evolution game. The little girl in red sensed the danger and tried to stop it, but under the gaze of countless blood-red eyes, she was frozen in place.

What exactly do you want to do?

"Didn't you want my body to resist the Outer Gods? Now I will give you my body, but on one condition."

"You must confront the Outer God now!"

Bai Zhengyu had transformed into a towering tree, its massive canopy obscuring the sky. At this moment, the still-wriggling eyeballs closed, replaced by a golden glow. The entire towering tree was enveloped in a pale yellow light, magnificent and awe-inspiring.

"Golden Tree?"

As the roots of the golden tree spread, the ground of the entire city was covered in a layer of golden light, which became increasingly dazzling and even enveloped the whole world in a brilliant golden glow.

"What exactly are you trying to do?"

The little girl in red felt a continuous flow of power flowing into her body from the golden tree. This continuous power surged forth, even transforming the little girl in red into a dazzling starlight.

"Is this the power of the gods?"

However, when the little girl in red looked up, what she saw made her instinctively take a step back.

An amorphous black mist descended overhead, carrying a terrifying sense of oppression. The city lights went out one by one, and even the starlight in the sky disappeared, leaving behind only a deep, dark mist. Within the mist, one could vaguely see a giant pupil staring at him.

What did you do?

The little girl, who had transformed into starlight, realized that she had become one with the golden tree and could not escape.

"I see. When you transform into the Golden Tree, a beacon automatically forms to summon Azathoth. Even if we are separated by different parallel worlds, it can sense and descend upon this world. If I'm not mistaken, that guy should be here by now."

The little girl who became starlight is rapidly merging with the World Tree and has gained a portion of Azathoth's power. As a result, the evolution game begins to twist and change rapidly.

The previously misty sky was abruptly ripped open, revealing a torrent of surging waves. From within these waves emerged the body of a colossal sea beast, a behemoth seemingly emerging from the abyss. Atop the beast's barnacle-covered back stood an old man with white hair and beard, holding a trident, his gaze somber, silently fixed on the golden trees that were spreading across the land and the eerie black mist above.

"The three giants are all here..."

In his last remaining consciousness, Bai Zhengyu silently raised the middle finger in his mind. Everything was being rapidly assimilated and replaced by the evolution game. From the beginning of his painstaking planning to now, he was exhausted. Finally, he could be free.
