The forest elves were truly driven to desperation. As the race most reliant on magic, they had set up various magic arrays in the forest in advance. Hundreds of years ago, Jibril of the Skywing race had used Sky Strike to blow up their capital. In order to prevent the tragedy from repeating itself, they upgraded the magic arrays used for defense.

However, this was still not enough. The energy rain was beyond their capabilities. They couldn't possibly cover all the land with it. If they tried to do so, it would only weaken the barrier and destroy the last remaining life.

Sink made a decision based on the situation above, and directly ordered the mages to abandon most of the area and defend one city to the death, which meant sacrificing the lives of most people, and only keeping the capital city with the most mages.

Upon hearing this order, countless forest elves turned pale, filled with grief and indignation.

"What are you all standing there for? Get moving!" Sinke was undoubtedly a qualified leader. Choosing to sacrifice the pawn to save the king was certainly heartless, but objectively speaking, it was a good idea, better than wiping out the entire clan.

Urged on by Sinke, a barrier tens of kilometers in diameter quickly appeared above everyone's heads to block the rain.

Swoosh—the raindrops pierced straight through the barrier on which everyone had placed their hopes, leaving the forest elves stunned.

They assumed it was an attack by a certain race, unaware that the energy unleashed from the Elven Corridor that allowed the Star Cup to manifest surpassed that of any divine species, including the God of War in his normal state.

These raindrops require even the Skywing and Dragon Spirit species to be cautious in their defenses; for the Forest Spirit species to try and save an entire city in one fell swoop is far too greedy.

"I'm not reconciled! This is my fate, so inexplicably?" Sinke closed her eyes helplessly. The rain came too suddenly; she had no time to try any other methods and could only passively await death.

Everyone was filled with despair. The forest elves were actually considered above average, at least they could try to save themselves. The orcs who relied on their bodies for food and the marine creatures who depended on the ocean for a living were truly miserable. They were in despair from the start and could only watch helplessly as the raindrops got closer and closer to them.

Just when all the races were in despair, the dark, deep night sky, stained with black ash and elven raindrops, suddenly brightened.

The expected explosion did not occur; the energy fell on the ground like real raindrops, producing only a soft rustling sound.

The cold air, which had been chilled by the lack of sunlight for so long, quickly warmed up, and light appeared.

At the same time, the land drenched by the fairy raindrops shimmered with a faint light, and then large swaths of flowers and grasses sprouted from the ground, bringing new life to this ravaged planet.

The raindrops that fall into the ocean purify the seawater and transform into all sorts of marine life. Many animals that went extinct in the war reappear, and the ocean becomes lively again.

"This is……"

Sinke bravely left the room, reached out and caught a few drops of rain. Instantly, the fatigue accumulated from her intense work over the past few days vanished, and she felt as if she had been reborn and full of energy.

"The war is over, was it him?" Sink muttered to himself, looking up at the sky.

As the survivors gradually moved into their new environment and enjoyed everything around them, they heard a voice telling them that the war was over and a new era had begun.

……

Karl held a dazzling, multifaceted crystal in his hand; indeed, everything that had just happened was accomplished by Karl using the Star Cup.

He reconstructed the planet's natural ecosystem, creating a beautiful place with lush mountains and clear waters. How beautiful? If the Forest God were still alive, he might have been able to gain power similar to that of a normal War God thanks to such a natural environment.

Of course, Karl wouldn't bring him back to life. The natural environment was good enough; there was no need for a representative who would start a war.

This also applies to other gods; those who have ruined a perfectly good planet like this are better off having no personality at all.

The Divine Race is now the rarest species on the entire planet. Most of them were killed by Karl in the recent battle, and very few survived.

Furthermore, these things are either conceptually weak and inexplicably lacking in vitality, like the God of Games, or they are characterized by peculiar personalities and apathy towards everything in the world.

The creator of the machine race is a representative figure of the second situation. This god is named Fanlou, the god of doubt.

She was filled with doubt about everything, but her insatiable thirst for knowledge tormented her so much that she injured her own soul and fell into a deep sleep.

She could wake up at any time in this state, after all, she had not completely detached her divine essence, and during the war, the mutual suspicion between various races made the concept of the Sail Tower very active, making it difficult for her to die.

Whether it's Tetu or Fanlou, Karl doesn't intend to interfere with gods like them. As long as they don't cause trouble, he treats gods and other races the same.

After transforming the planet, Karl rebuilt the Elf Corridor beneath it.

Disboard now has fifteen intelligent races (humans have left), and their need for Jinling is like a human's need for air. The more powerful the race, the greater the amount they need. Even the orcs, who rely most on their physical bodies, cannot survive without elves.

The environment in which they were born was such that the existence of elves was as natural as air and water, and the organs in their bodies were designed for this environment.

Of course, if Karl really wanted to change it, he could use the Star Cup, but he wouldn't do that.

While the Star Grail is a conceptual device capable of influencing the universe, much like the Infinity Stones in the Marvel Universe, its form of existence is actually closer to the Holy Grail in the Type-Moon universe.

The Infinity Stones themselves contain a great deal of energy, but it is far from reaching the cosmic level. They modify the universe in a way that is similar to having a power.

The Holy Grail, on the other hand, is a wish-granting device without the ability to actually make a wish. Its principle for granting wishes is to forcibly create a result using its immense magical power.

The same applies to the Star Cup; it doesn't use authority, but power.

This universe is created by the energy it emits, and the way it influences it is by emitting new energy to replace it.

If Karl were to use it to modify a person, it would mean creating a new one from the Star Cup to replace the original, which is tantamount to killing the original. No matter how similar the two are, they cannot be compared.

Chapter 288 The Advantages of the Star Cup

Carl left the spot and found a relatively quiet place to begin studying the Star Grail he had just acquired.

While both are artifacts capable of altering the universe, the Star Grail is not as convenient as the Infinity Stones, but it has its own advantages.

The main function of the Infinity Stones is to modify everything in the universe. With a snap of the fingers, you can change whatever you want, which is convenient and quick.

The Star Cup is different; it is a super-massive energy source. The universe of No Game No Life was formed from the energy it leaked out and gradually developed into what it is today.

It is not a product of the universe, so it has no function to modify the universe. It can only replace external things by releasing energy, just like the process by which it formed the universe.

Karl is able to reshape this planet with the Star Cup because this universe shares the same origin as the Star Cup, making the replacement of matter within it effortless and without any obstacles. This would probably not be possible in a different universe.

From this perspective, the Star Grail seems to be no match for the Infinity Stones, since the latter can be dealt with with a snap of the fingers.

However, as mentioned earlier, the Star Cup also has its own advantages, and it is extremely attractive to Karl.

The power of the Infinity Stones comes from their access to the universe, which allows them to wield immense influence in the Marvel Universe. However, outside the Marvel Universe, the Infinity Stones are not recognized as such.

In contrast, while the Star Cup may not have the ability to manipulate reality in other universes, its power comes entirely from itself, and it can be used even in other universes.

Karl's current goal is to leave the DC universe. He has already reached the Origin Wall, and according to the progress that Mebius told him when he returned, the day he crosses the Origin Wall is not far off.

There is a vast space beyond the Wall of Origin, and Karl's plan is to use the omnipresent Speed ​​Force to throw his spaceship out of the DC universe.

This would save a lot of time traveling later, since simply leaving the DC universe wasn't enough; he also needed to get to his previously decided destination.

"Whether it's the DC universe I'm in now, or other universes I might encounter on my journey, the Star Grail can be a great help. Other artifacts might not be able to do the same."

Karl was very satisfied with the Star Cup, as it would be helpful on his journey, and he also intended to make the universe it created his new home.

After obtaining the Star Cup, Carl discovered that the current universe was much stranger than he had imagined. It was not a naturally formed universe, and therefore differed from the normal universe in many ways.

The most obvious point is that this universe is very empty, and the only planet with life is at the center of the universe, which is the planet under Karl's feet.

The Moon-Singing Race does live on the moon, but that race moved there, so strictly speaking, they should still be considered part of this planet.

"It's really deserted. No wonder the activity level of the divine species is only affected by these 16 races. It turns out there is no life in other places at all."

"But this is good too. With the Star Cup, I can easily turn these no-man's-land into a habitable environment. It will be easy to settle down and I won't have to fight with other races for territory."

"By the way, we also need to make arrangements for these native ethnic groups."

The war is over because the final prize is gone, and the gods who started the war are all dead. Theoretically, the various races no longer need to fight each other.

However, although the source is gone, the hatred accumulated during the war will not disappear into thin air. For example, the goblin and forest elf races, who are always at odds, and the skywing race that bombed the forest elf capital, have reason to hate each other.

In addition, there are some races that are forced to harm others. Vampires need to drink the blood of others to grow, while marine species, except for a single special individual, need to drain the mates of other races in order to reproduce.

"The problem with marine species is the simplest. The birth of special individuals follows a pattern. Modifying their living environment and stimulating them through external means should allow all marine species living in the ocean to produce special individuals."

"As for vampires, we can just create a kind of beast that they can eat. It's not a big problem. The key issue is the hatred between different races. Fighting each other is really annoying. We need to give them a different way to vent their anger."

Karl pondered how to settle the 15 native races in the universe. He liked the peaceful daily atmosphere but didn't want to forcibly bind them with rules.

Just then, the chat group signal in his mind interrupted his thoughts. It was Riku sending a message on the public channel that he had safely arrived in the new universe.

[The Undefeated Man]: The collider was a success. I'm pretty sure of it. We're now on Earth in a parallel universe, with all of humanity intact.

【Metal Gear Solid Wolf Fang】: We can't be careless. Didn't they say there were monsters in that world?

To help Karl guard the Anti-Life Equation, Bronya basically stayed in her underground base, which she created using the power of the Herrscher of Reason, 24 hours a day. At the same time, to prevent missing any messages from Karl, she also paid close attention to the chat group.

[The Undefeated]: Don't worry, we've already eliminated the only two monsters around here, and we've also found a well-preserved building to set up a temporary base.

[The Undefeated]: For now, we are still safe, but my ring has run out of energy, and Shubi is also feeling unwell. We need to rest for a while before we can explore our surroundings.

Riku had previously used all his strength to release the Purple Lantern Barrier to cover the human territory, completely exhausting the already limited energy remaining in the ring.

This purple lantern ring was first used by Carol, then Karl took it to the Honkai world to resist the Darkest Night, and then it was sealed away by Green Lantern Hal. During this time, it has not had the opportunity to replenish its energy with the furnace, so it is quite remarkable that it has lasted until now.

As for Shubi, she was very uncomfortable because she had used up too much computing power in the collider and there were no spirits in the new universe.

[Superman]: Does Shubi need a spirit? I can provide one right now.

Carl popped up in the group chat.

[The Unbeatable]: Oh, it's Mr. Superman. Thank you for buying us time. What happened afterward? Are you alright?

Riku and Shubi didn't have much energy to pay attention to the battlefield at the time. They only knew that Karl and the God of War had fought, but they didn't know the final result, let alone see Karl's ferocious appearance when he slaughtered the gods.

[Superman]: I successfully defeated the God of War and even obtained the Star Cup.

[The Unbeatable]: Is that really how it is?!

Riku was somewhat surprised; he had thought Karl was really just trying to buy some time.

【Metal Gear Solid Wolf Fang】: Does that mean Mr. Riku is doing very well in the original world now?

[The Unwinner]: Yes, that's true in theory, but I still really hope for a fresh start. It's better for that painful place to remain just a memory.

Chapter 289 Subsequent Impact

For Riku and his group of humans, living in a peaceful new world would undoubtedly be better. Staying in their original world was also an option, but unless Karl was willing to favor them, the everyday world of humans was still the best.

The world at present may very well meet the requirements, and Riku is willing to give it a try. Even if he fails, it won't be a big problem, as long as the collider is still there, he can continue his search.

[The Unwinner]: Mr. Superman, is that machine still in use after the war?

[Superman]: Wait for me a moment.

Karl used the Star Cup to rewind a portion of time. The devastation caused by the collapse of the Elf Corridor was so powerful and widespread that it plunged most of the planet into crisis. The collider was nearby at the time, so naturally, it was completely destroyed.

After regaining control of the collider, Karl extended an invitation to Riku, but Gan Yu then made a suggestion.

[It's a Qilin, not a Coconut Sheep]: Speaking of which, since this is a machine that allows people to travel between different universes, could we let Mr. Deadpool use it too?

Deadpool is a zombie Deadpool living in a zombie universe. His world is experiencing a powerful virus outbreak that turns people into flesh-eating zombies, retaining their intelligence but also their minds and bodies.

If this virus originated in the ordinary world, it would be fine; at most, it would cause a planet to fall. But unfortunately, it originated in the Marvel Universe, a universe where individual abilities are amplified to the extreme, a universe of superheroes.

Imagine a group of superpowered individuals capable of resolving cosmic crises devoting all their intelligence and strength to hunting. Earth is just the beginning; terrifying zombies devoured the entire universe at an astonishing rate, yet this is not the limit.
