The shockwave from the explosion directly destroyed the goblin airships. The moment the terrifying white shockwave swept through, all the airships turned into fireballs and plummeted towards the ground below.
[The perspective continues to shift, and the Skywing species 'Little Chicken Stewed Mushroom' launches an attack 'Sky Strike!' at the Forest Elf species below. An endless sea of fire engulfs and burns the forest below. The Skywing girl, Little Chicken Stewed Mushroom, leisurely departs... leaving behind a few feathers.]
Please order a takeout order of Xiao Ji's Stewed Mushrooms. It will be even better if you watch it together!

"Ancient, fairytale-like legend, a long war between gods and the species they created, which burned the earth."
"The sky was filled with ash, and a deadly black ash began to fall."
[In the video, Rick takes off his hood, seemingly lost in thought, and looks up at the blood-red sky, letting the black ash fall on him.]
[All the spectators saw a tiny speck of black ash fall onto Rick's forehead, instantly scorching his pale skin, which had been deprived of sunlight for so long. But he seemed to feel no pain, continuing to gaze listlessly at the sky.]
[“Rick!” Are, who was walking towards the settlement ahead, noticed that Rick had fallen behind. He turned around, saw Rick's movement, and hurriedly ran over to help him put his hood back on.]
[With tears still streaming down his face, Aray grabbed Rick's shoulder roughly and said, "Don't take on everything like that—you'll be crushed!"]
However, Rick's eyes remained dull and lifeless, devoid of any emotion, like a ghost, soulless. Were it not for the beating heart within him, he would have been a walking corpse.
Rick, his hood pulled up by Are, slowly made his way towards the human camp ahead, seemingly lost in thought, muttering to himself, "This black ash, perhaps it can bring some pity."
In the video, all the viewers noticed that Rick and Aray's steps were extremely heavy as they headed towards the camp. Some thought it was due to the accumulated black ash on the ground, but others knew it was because... too many people had sacrificed their lives behind their journey—hundreds, thousands, or...
[Black ash, it is said, is the last glimmer emitted by an elf destroyed upon colliding with ash before its death. If a naked human touches it, their skin will be scorched. If it gets into the eyes, it will cause blindness. If accidentally ingested, it will cause internal organ failure and disintegration.]
It shone with a blue light, yet it was called "Black Gray" because that thing was synonymous with "death."
Pirate world.
"In such a desolate world, how can the weakest and the strongest fight?" Looking at this scene, Uchihachi of the Revolutionary Army was a little confused.
He vaguely guessed that the weakest represented humanity.
However, humans are struggling to survive, so what right do they have to fight the strongest?
If even a single dragon spirit or goblin appeared, it could easily destroy humanity.
Even if I went up to fight myself, I would be no match for these dragon spirits and would be utterly crushed on the ground.
"...If these damned monsters came to our world, we'd be doomed."
Lieutenant General Tsuru's face showed an extremely solemn expression as he spoke seriously.
She felt that these dragon and goblin species might one day be able to traverse the stars and wreak havoc on other worlds.
In the world of Death Note, Light Yagami, witnessing this scene, felt utterly powerless. What good was the Death Note if it couldn't save the few remaining humans in the world?
"Fuck you! Fuck you! This is a corrupt world, this is a fucking boring world!"
As a perfectionist, Light Yagami discovered that his perfect justice was utterly useless in this matter, and he immediately became extremely irritable.
But he couldn't help feeling very strange. Why would these powerful races fight each other to such a tragic extent? What good would it do them if the planet beneath their feet shattered?
Are they so eager to go out and see the moon, experience the vacuum of space, and feel the radiation from space?!
No Game No Life Zero World.
"Oh my god, I actually appeared in it! How interesting!" Jibril was overjoyed to see herself in the video; the bump on her head hadn't been shown at all!
That means I didn't lose face. This author is very clever. Next time we meet, I'll spare his life!
During the battle in the video, Jibril was affected by the flying interference magic unleashed by the forest species and fell directly down, getting a large bump on her head.
Because of this incident, her anger instantly reached its peak, and she unleashed the "Sky Strike" attack magic, released after her nerves had mutated, using all the elven corridors connected within her body, to destroy the capital of the forest elves...
With a single strike, he wiped out three thousand forest species and looted all the magic books in front of him.
It is said that as long as you pay enough books, you can get Jibril to personally make you a deluxe version of chicken stew with mushrooms, or a version with black stockings, etc.
"It's...it's so gloomy, this world is so gloomy. There's no life anywhere. It's so cold..." In the Type-Moon world, Rin Tohsaka felt extremely cold as she looked at the sky filled with black ash.
She saw the skeletons of various unknown creatures around Rick and his group, and there wasn't even a single weed on the ground, only a thick layer of black ash accumulating.
Even if humanity, with its current technology, had existed in the past, it would have been destroyed by the aftershocks of the great wars between these races.
If only my teacher, the Demon Marshal Gemstone Elder, could be in this world.
The teacher must... have a way to defeat these dragon spirits and winged creatures, right?
Death world.
"How could this be... How could such a world exist?" Seeing this, Toshiro Hitsugaya's face showed...
He looked utterly shocked, and his voice trembled slightly.
These species have demonstrated combat prowess far exceeding that of the Hollows.
"...Waaaaah—! I feel so awful, this world is so uncomfortable." Inoue Orihime leaned on Kurosaki Ichigo's shoulder and said, sounding very distressed.
Through the fleeting images in the video, she clearly understood how difficult it was to survive in such a world.
What kind of beliefs have kept Rick, Evan, and Alejandro González so steadfast until now?
[Soon, Rick and Aray arrived at a ravine, picked up a light source from the cave entrance—a piece that looked like a carbon crystal—and, when placed in water, emitted a warm, orange-yellow glow.]
[The perspective shifts to the interior of the cave, where a girl with long red hair appears to be instructing three human children on how to write their names.]
"Klonie, they're back!" A short-haired girl interrupted her. Hearing this, Klonie turned around abruptly. She immediately got up and ran outside, her heart filled with anxiety, as if she would never see Rick and the others again.
[In the video, a human camp appears outside a cave in the mountain. Various blue crystals adorn the surrounding rock walls, and the cave is filled with lighting stones that continuously emit warm light.]
[Kloni saw Rick standing in front of her, talking to the residents of the square. She immediately opened her arms, tears of excitement welling up in her eyes, and ran over to him, hugging him tightly. She exclaimed, "Rick! Thank goodness! Are you alright?"]
"Chronie..." Feeling Chronie's body temperature, Rick simply responded gently.
"Seriously! You're only getting back now! How long were you going to keep me worried?!"
Just moments ago, she was tightly hugging Rick, but the next second, Kloni abruptly shoved him away. Seeing that Rick wasn't hurt, a huge weight lifted from her shoulders, and she complained to Rick, "And another thing! Didn't I tell you to call me 'older sister'?!"
After saying this, Chronie's expression showed some dissatisfaction, but at the same time, she thought to herself, "It's so good that I'm back safe and sound..."
Rick said listlessly, "We've done our best..."
Hearing Rick's tone, Chronie's expression changed instantly, a bad feeling creeping into her heart. She swept her sapphire-like eyes across Rick and Aray's faces, noticing Aray's evasive expression and the sadness in his eyes. She then understood what had happened. Her arms, which had been tucked into her hips, fell limply to her sides. "..."
"Ivan he..." Just as Rick was about to say something, a joyful voice came from behind him, "Dad!"
"Rick!" Chronie heard it too and immediately called out Rick's name, telling him to wait a moment before discussing the matter.
"Daddy! Welcome back! Daddy! Where's Daddy?" A girl with short purple hair, wearing a dress, smiled proudly, holding up the name that Chronie had taught her to write. She said to Chronie, "Look! I wrote it myself! Where's Daddy?"
"Listen to me... Nonna," Chloe said, looking at Nonna, trying to change the subject and find a reason. But just as she was about to speak, Rick bent down, placed a hand on Chloe's shoulder, and gestured for her to speak herself.
[In the video, all viewers noticed that Rick's eyes were completely lifeless at this moment. He placed one hand on the girl's shoulder and said to the purple-haired girl in front of him, "Nonna..."]
Nonna felt the gentle pressure from Rick's hand on her shoulder, her eyes following Rick's expression, then glancing at Chronie and Aray beside her. Her purple eyes began to flicker, as if... she knew something.
Rick said in a low voice, "Dad...he's not coming back."
Upon hearing this, Nonna's cheeks trembled slightly, her purple eyes revealing disbelief, her small mouth tightly shut, and then she asked in a trembling voice, "Why...?"
【“........”】
["Daddy said he would definitely come back, and that I should be a good girl and wait for him! I was a good girl—I kept my promise—why isn't Daddy coming back!?"]
"Because... he's already dead." Rick said calmly, his eyes still dull and lifeless.
"It's a lie!!!" Upon hearing this news, Nonna swung her fist, breaking free from Rick's grasp and punching him in the face. Tears welled in her eyes as she sobbed, "It's a lie... a lie!! Because... Dad promised I would come back!! He said humanity would ultimately prevail!!"
"We will...that's why Ivan fought with all his might for victory." Rick heard Nonna's cries and silently clutched his chest, trying to confirm if his heart was still locked. The "heart lock" allowed Rick to handle situations calmly and find the optimal solution.
Hearing Rick's words, Nonna's face was filled with tears, and she hugged her chest tightly. Da Sheng retorted, "That's not a victory at all! Let Rick die instead! Wouldn't that be better?"
Huh?!
"Nonna..." Kloni rushed over and hugged Nonna tightly, trying to calm her down... Kloni knelt on the ground, holding Nonna, her delicate body trembling slightly.
Upon hearing Nonna's words, Rick's expression changed, and his dark, lifeless pupils gradually widened, as if to say that Nonna was right, and that if it were him who had died, wouldn't it have been better...?
In the world of Detective Conan, Ran Mouri, witnessing this scene, covered her mouth with one hand and exclaimed in disbelief, "Dad... why... why... did he have to tell Nonna these things at this time? Couldn't he have waited a while?"
Upon hearing Ran's question, Kogoro Mouri glanced at Eri Kisaki, who was busy in the kitchen, paused for a moment, and said, "Perhaps it's because... their current circumstances don't allow them time to grieve... they have to face this matter sooner rather than later?"
"Lies can't cover up the truth. A desperate living environment leaves you no room for maneuver. There are good and bad aspects to it. What a pitiful child, losing her father so early..." At this moment, Eri Kisaki also came over from the kitchen with food and said slowly.
When Eri saw this scene, she felt a deep sadness in her heart. This little girl, who was as lovely as her own daughter Ran Mouri... had lost her father just like that.
In this apocalyptic world, the family lost its breadwinner...sigh.
Hearing her parents' explanation, Ran Mouri fell silent. "Can humanity in this world really win?"
She already sensed that this video would be met with endless barrages of criticism.
Fantasy carnival world.
"Aaaaaaahhhhhh! You bastard! Why did you have to tell Nonna so soon... so decisively?!"
Although I heard about my father's death when I was a child, I still couldn't accept it. Nonna... how much of a shock would it be to suddenly hear this news?
She's different from me... I'm very strong.
Rin Tohsaka didn't know if Nonna's young heart could handle the news.
"..." The Heroic Spirit version of Shirou Emiya didn't speak, but silently took out a very familiar handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to Rin Tohsaka, his fist clenched tightly.
Game life world.
"Rick... if I really die in the future, please don't feel sad or guilty because of my daughter's words. You did the right thing; it was the right decision."
Inside the human camp, Ivan patted Rick on the shoulder, a gentle smile on his face.
In the video, Evan did not show any resistance to the orders Rick gave him. Everyone who has sworn an oath to obey Rick's orders will do so.
After all, Rick was the leader chosen by everyone, and under Rick's leadership, the sacrifices were minimal.
[Typically, villages of similar size see at least a hundred people die each year.]
Upon hearing this, Rick showed no emotion on his face and replied, "Um... I understand."
Hopefully, this video won't turn humans into a thorn in the side of other races.
He was furious. Humanity was already like this, so why did they have to release a summary video? Now the exact location of his village... was completely exposed.
Although he has now received material donations from many people across the myriad realms, these things can only improve his living experience, not his chances of survival.
Doraemon world.
"Doraemon, do you have any gadgets that can bring the dead back to life? Can you bring Uncle Ivan back to life...? Poor Noona." Watching this scene in the video, Nobita felt incredibly distressed, as if he was suffocating.
He lived in a very peaceful era and had hardly ever seen anything like this.
He didn't even dare to think about how many people die in this world every day.
"...Nobita, I'm also very upset, but I don't know if the phone booth can change things... or if it will make things worse."
Feeling Nobita's sadness, Doraemon was also very distressed, as he was a mechanical cat created by humans.
Seeing how hard and miserable these humans were living, it really wanted to help them.
Brother Sixty-Nine, I can't hold back anymore.
[Kloni, holding Nonna, said to the two people behind her, "You two, why aren't you taking a shower?"]
"Just wipe it off quickly."
"Stop it, go wash up! You two stink!" Chronie, tears streaming down her face, continued to hug the sobbing Nonna, watching Rick's departing figure with a hint of worry. She knew what Rick was going to do, because... he had repeated it many times.
Rick entered his small room and closed the door.
The small room, originally dug from a cave, appeared even more cramped due to the accumulation of countless books and props.
[From the cramped room came Rick's roar: "What did you say! What did you say about winning?! You damn hypocrite!"]
"You ordered him to sacrifice himself!! You told him to die!" Rick, having unlocked his heart, swung his fists wildly around the room, destroying bookshelves and cabinets, pounding the wooden table in front of him, roaring, "Admit it! You killed him!"
"You sacrificed his life to save your own supplies!" Rick roared incessantly, his fists pounding the wooden table relentlessly, sharp pieces of wood piercing his hands, blood gushing from the wounds.
Out of mouth. 】
Rick, his heart now unlocked, was filled with utter despair. He collapsed to his knees, warm tears streaming down his face. "If this continues... what will the future hold? When will it end?"
"Is it when the 999th person sacrifices themselves for the 1001st person, or when only one person survives?"
The blood seeping from Rick's fist had stained the wooden planks on the ground, but he ignored the excruciating pain. The physical agony was nothing compared to the mental anguish... He raised his fist again and slammed it into the ground, his bleeding hand gripping his white hair tightly as he cried out in agony, "When will this end? How long will this living hell continue?"
Chronie leaned quietly against the door, listening intently as Rick vented his emotions. She knew it was necessary... She couldn't interfere; all she could do now was silently stay by Rick's side. In her heart, she prayed, "If there is a God, can't He save humanity?"
