I, the anti-superman, have hacked into the chat group.

Thousands of years ago, D felt that the people of this world could not complete the game, and feeling bored, he left the planet, until the former hero and demon king, under the instigation of Potimas, joined forces to attack the administrator.

With the system's assistance, the attack struck the classroom where Administrator D, who was slacking off as a high school student on Earth, was located. Only then did she remember this planet and reincarnated the people who had died in the classroom into this world.

"Although your act of obtaining energy from extraterrestrial planets is as boring as using cheat codes, I'll still consider it a success since you made the dragons suffer. Anyway, the people in this world don't have the ability to make it impossible to succeed."

"Don't you think you set the difficulty too high?" Carl complained.

Monsters with an ability value of 1 or more are called mythical monsters. Humans would suffer great damage and need hundreds of years to recover after defeating just one. Mythical monsters have very long lifespans due to evolution, and their numbers will only increase during this period.

No, Potimas seems to be playable, but even D classifies him as a boss, which shows that he has completely distanced himself from humans.

Chapter Thirty System Shutdown

"It's precisely because it's so difficult that it's all the more valuable when you achieve it, and theoretically, they have a chance of completing the game," d said.

Theory and practice are different. If the probability is too small, what's the difference between it and nothing? However, Karl had no interest in arguing with the evil god. Anyway, the system was going to be dismantled, so there was no point in saying anything.

He has been here for almost a month now, and he has learned everything he needed to know, and his position is probably pretty much set.

After dismantling the system and then visiting Potimas to offer some comfort, there's nothing left for him to do in this world. After that, Karl can go back and check on his achievements.

"Since you just said we've cleared the game, it shouldn't be a problem for me to take out the goddess now, right?" Karl asked.

"Please go ahead."

Karl placed his hand on the goddess's waist, her lower body merging into the space, where the goddess and the system were connected.

Karl's body repels magic, and by using this property, he can do some outrageous things, such as destroying magic arrays with his bare hands.

He gripped the connection point with both hands and pulled it to both sides, tearing apart the magically distorted space.

However, at that very moment, the system notification sound that had been echoing all around disappeared.

"System anomaly detected, self-defense program activated." These words were genuinely spoken by the goddess, indicating that the system's computing power was likely being concentrated on this point.

Countless black mists emerged from the walls and then coalesced into 12 different humanoid figures. These were puppets created to protect the system, each possessing an ability value of over 20,000, making them undoubtedly mythical-level combat power.

"Leave these guys to me, Superman, you focus on rescuing the goddess." The Demon King rushed forward the moment the puppet appeared.

"Uh..." Actually, he could easily turn his neck and use his heat vision to eliminate these puppets; it's not like he can only do one thing at a time.

Oh well, since the Demon King is in such high spirits, it's good to let her feel more involved in saving her adoptive mother. Besides, this is probably the Demon King's last battle.

Once the system is dismantled, the Demon King will probably lose his fighting ability like the Spider, so it wouldn't be bad to let this battle be his final act.

There are 12 puppets, each of which has been specialized in a different aspect. Their average ability value is 2, and the specialized aspect has a value of 4.

Some excel in strength, some in speed, some in magic, and others in healing abilities. This makes them have a clear division of labor when they fight, just like a perfect game strategy team, and the Demon King is the boss they are going to defeat.

With tanks holding the front line, assassins harassing, and support healers, they managed to suppress the Demon King, who had a power level of 9, thanks to their perfect teamwork.

"You've got some skills, but how could I let you stop me!"

The Demon King leaped high onto the roof of the room, using the momentum to shatter the ceiling and land directly in the back row of the puppets.

The Demon King unleashed his Gluttony skill, biting off the upper half of the Space Mage puppet in one bite. He then immediately charged forward and punched the Healer puppet through the flesh.

The assassin-type puppet reacted and tried to ambush the Demon King, but found itself completely unable to move, as the Demon King's spider silk had somehow wrapped around its entire body.

The Demon King is the product of a genetic hybridization experiment, in which the spider genes are particularly prominent. Therefore, the system determines that she is a demon. She possesses both human intelligence and the lifespan of a demon. Over the years, her soul has expanded to its limit, and the system can no longer find a single combatant stronger than her.

At this moment, the perfect lineup was destroyed, and these puppets could not last long against the Demon King who was going all out.

Once the Demon King had dealt with the puppet, Karl suddenly increased his power, tearing open the magic circle and then using a hand chop to sever the array patterns binding the goddess, freeing her.

Karl caught the goddess as she fell from mid-air and gently placed her on the ground.

"Lady Sally, are you alright?" The Demon King rushed over anxiously and asked with concern.

The goddess opened her eyes quickly after leaving the system.

"Ariel," the goddess called out the demon king's name weakly.

The two people have very similar names. The Demon King's name was given to her by a misunderstanding when she first met the Goddess. The Demon King repeated the Goddess's name, but because her voice was hoarse, the Goddess misheard and thought that the Demon King was introducing herself as Ariel.

"Yes, Lady Sally, you're finally back!" The Demon King excitedly embraced the goddess.

The two enjoyed a rare reunion as mother and daughter, and the warm atmosphere made those around them happy for them as well.

The goddess was, after all, a high-ranking deity, with a system power value of over 100 million. Although she had been tormented by the system for tens of thousands of years, she gradually regained her mobility after a short period of rest.

She stood up, bowed to Carl, and said, "Should I call you Superman? Thank you for your help to humanity; such kindness will never be forgotten."

Karl exchanged a few polite words to get by, having heard the Demon King express his gratitude many times before, so he felt nothing.

He was curious about what the goddess Sally would do next, and whether she would unconditionally protect him who used MA energy just because Potimas was human.

"Goddess, although I have restored energy to the planet, if it is not controlled, the planet will eventually fall into crisis. There are still people recklessly extracting energy."

Karl believed that planetary energy didn't necessarily have to be absolutely unusable as the Dragons claimed. After all, this stuff was related to the gods, and the planet's outer area had been occupied by various gods. If humanity wanted to enter interstellar space and become a god-like race, they would most likely still need to use MA energy.

However, it must be used rationally. It is definitely not acceptable to treat planetary energy as an inexhaustible resource like humans used to. Therefore, it is entirely correct to say that Potimas, which is still extracting energy at will, is a scourge.

“Yes, Lady Sally, that Potimas is still draining the planet’s energy. We must kill him, or history will repeat itself!” The Demon King’s tone revealed his hatred for Potimas.

Everyone present, including Kurumi Tokisaki who had only been on this planet for half a month, understood that the elves were a menace and wondered what the goddess thought.

The goddess sighed and said, "As for Potimas, he is already dead."

"What!" Everyone was surprised. What did they mean by "already dead"? Wasn't he still alive and well, catching reincarnated people everywhere? How could he be said to be dead in the blink of an eye?

The goddess explained, "Although Potimas transformed himself into an elf, even elves only live for a few hundred years. The reason he has been able to live from ten thousand years ago to the present is not because of his lifespan, but because of the system."

At this moment, the Demon King suddenly realized and said, "That's it. The reason I couldn't kill him, besides that damned barrier in the Fairy Village, is because he is 'immortal' and can possess other spirits. Otherwise, he would have died eight hundred times over."

Karl understood. Now that the system had stopped operating, Potimas's skills had naturally become useless. Humanoid races did not have the same natural lifespan as monsters, so once the 'immortality' skill stopped, he would naturally die.

Chapter Thirty-One: Appeasement

Potimas died. Out of fear of death, he spent his entire life trying to transcend it and become a god, even at the cost of dragging the entire planet into the water.

However, he died just like that, without any fanfare. Since his true form was hiding alone in a secret base, his death was so sudden that there probably wouldn't even be anyone to collect his body. It was truly as insignificant as a feather.

However, although the villain is dead, his henchmen, the elves, are still alive and well, and they are still draining energy. For example, the barrier that covers the fairy village is something that even Qiu Lie cannot easily break. You can imagine how much energy it consumes every day.

Although it wasn't a big deal for Karl, he brought the energy back because he couldn't bear to see so much suffering, not to let such a small group of people squander it.

So Karl said, "Even though Potimas is dead, the Elves are still using energy, and it hasn't improved the situation on the planet much."

"Most elves don't understand the consequences of using technology. If we remind them, they should..." the goddess said uncertainly.

Before he could finish speaking, the Demon King interrupted him: "Impossible, they will never learn their lesson."

Karl also thought it unlikely. Human nature is unpredictable, and morality requires education. As the chieftain of the elves, Potimas would never instill the idea of ​​conserving energy in the elves. It would be strange if the elves, raised in such an environment, agreed.

"It's better to forget about that technology. Let's allow them to access MA energy when human civilization matures to the point where we know how to plan rationally. As for now, if you don't want to take action, Goddess, I can help you deal with the elves," Karl said.

These words seemed to frighten the goddess, and she spread her arms to block Karl's way.

"No, I will never allow anyone to harm humans."

"Lady Sally, it's not appropriate to speak to your benefactor like that," the Demon King advised. She agreed with Karl, and the goddess's behavior was indeed somewhat inappropriate. She didn't want to see the two of them clash.

However, Karl understood the goddess's nature and didn't care about her behavior.

He learned a lot about the Angel race when he visited a life-bearing planet in space.

Some speculate that the Angel race was created as a tool race to protect planets in the universe itself. Only this can explain why all members of the Angel race are so enthusiastic about protecting planets, something that has no benefit to the race itself.

Because they are tools of the universe, just as robots act according to programs programmed for them, the angels should also act according to programs programmed for them by the universe.

Karl had no interest in arguing with the robot; it was inflexible.

"Don't worry, I have no intention of harming elves, and I also hate killing."

"I'm sorry, I acted impulsively." The goddess quickly apologized, "But it's difficult to clean up machines without killing anyone, isn't it?"

“Is it that difficult?” Karl indicated that things were not as complicated as he had imagined: “We don’t need to destroy all the mechanical creations. We just need to destroy the equipment that extracts MA energy, and then demolish the database and the factory. We can’t build a complete production line. Even if we leave some technology behind, it will only regress over time, which is not a big deal.”

"Why are you so skilled at this?" the Demon King complained.

Carl brushed it off with a smile.

After considering it for a moment, the goddess felt that this was indeed a win-win solution, as it would neither harm humanity nor prevent humanity from self-destructing, and there was no reason to refuse it.

After everyone finished discussing, they began to walk out of the room.

It was quiet all around, but Karl could hear the sounds of the monsters echoing through the maze growing louder and louder, as all the monsters rushed back to their lair.

It was obvious that the monsters had discovered that the system had disappeared, and their skills and abilities were completely unusable. All the monsters had turned into ordinary creatures, and this situation made them panic and want to find a safe place.

If monsters are like this, then the complex human society must be even more chaotic.

Everyone discovered that all the skills, abilities, and resistances they had painstakingly honed had become useless, and they had suddenly become ordinary people.

The most affected are the mages, who are present in every country and are usually highly respected, but now they are all useless and can't even cast a fireball.

There is actually no one on this planet who knows magic. They all rely on a system to cast spells. If you take the system aside, you'll find that all the magical knowledge they've summarized is about how to level up their skills faster, with maybe a few tricks for casting spells.

They were completely ignorant of the most crucial aspects: how magic actually came about, what its principles were, and the role of magic circles in constructing magic.

Perhaps there are some exceptionally talented individuals, such as Spider-Child, who can draw some simple magic circles on their own without relying on the system, but it's still not very useful.

Because even their most basic magical perception and manipulation are achieved through system skills.

If someone ever manages to use magic on their own, they'll probably be a demon king who's been with the system for millennia.

However, the Demon King is currently just an ordinary young girl, and her combat power is equal to that of a village girl like Spider Girl.

In this situation, she can probably no longer be called the Demon King, because she certainly won't even go to the demon territory anymore, and no one will submit to her anymore.

The goddess used spatial magic to bring everyone to the ground, and then constructed a magic circle in front of her.

"I need to appease humanity now," the goddess said, looking at Karl apologetically.

“Why are you looking at me?” Carl said. “Oh, I see. If I told people what I did, they wouldn’t feel at ease, right? It doesn’t matter. I didn’t do this to get their thanks.”

The goddess was also embarrassed. She knew her behavior was helpless and had been hesitating whether to speak up. She didn't expect Karl to see through it so easily.

After receiving permission, the goddess spoke into the magic circle, and her voice resounded to every corner of the planet.

"Fellow humans."

The goddess's voice was the system's voice. When this familiar voice rang out, many panicked people calmed down, such as the followers of the Divine Word Cult. When the system disappeared, they almost thought that God had abandoned them. Now that God's voice appeared, they all pricked up their ears, afraid of missing a single word.
