Disaster Simulator, global collapse begins.

There's not much danger going to Umbrella's side. If Kiana suggested going to Schicksal headquarters, she would definitely be the first to object.

As children grow older, it's good for them to go out more often.

"Great!"

Kiana jumped high into the air, then leaped onto the shoulder of the mecha piloted by Raiden Mei, pointing forward:

"Let's go find Bella and the others!"

Walter stayed behind to protect the two great scientists, while Siegfried and the others boarded the high-speed anti-entropy fighter jet and set off for their respective destinations.

……

Chapter 197 I don't believe you!

Chen Jie, accompanied by the fairy Ellie, met up with Mebius and Fu Hua.

"Hi, you two," she greeted them. "It's been such a long, long, long time! I wonder if you regretted not accepting the gift I gave you back then?"

At that time, Alicia created many fairy Alis, intending to give one to each of the heroes.

Möbius's lips twitched slightly, a rare occurrence, suggesting that his inner thoughts were far more complex than his facial expressions.

However, now is not a good time for in-depth exchanges.

"According to the last message sent back by the spy who infiltrated Destiny."

She turned on the projection device, and a huge door appeared on the screen, with Otto's silhouette standing in front of it.

"The Law of Domination is very likely created by Destiny."

"I knew Otto was up to no good!" Chen Jie exclaimed in alarm.

Mebius's World Serpent can overpower Destiny.

But it was definitely not a case of such a huge disparity in combat strength, a crushing defeat as if it were a complete stomp.

The fact is, Otto accomplished his plan, and the territory and resources of Destiny were no longer important to him...

"The rest is pretty simple, just go and defeat Otto."

Chen Jie didn't think much of it; after all, fighting wasn't his forte, nor was it his job.

"I've decided on you, Lord Mebius, the Serpent Lord. I'll be here cheering you on."

Mebius rolled his eyes at Chen Jie.

If only it were that simple!

The dominating force is spreading and covering the entire world. To rush out and kill Otto is probably like hitting a missile with a hammer and hoping for a miracle.

There's a low probability of successfully dismantling it, but there's a high probability it will detonate prematurely with a loud bang before it's completely destroyed.

This is the brilliance, or rather, the disgusting aspect of Otto's move: he kidnapped half the world's population as hostages, and no one dared to let him do as he pleased.

However, Mebius understood that it wasn't that Chen Jie hadn't thought things through enough, but rather that their identities and positions were different.

Elke wasn't a Herrscher; he couldn't sense that strange, threatening power...

"Let's wait for a visiting friend. After all, this is a world-class disaster, and you can't expect a researcher like me with little combat ability to solve it."

I don't believe you for a second!

Beware of the new Versailles trap.

But who exactly is this visiting friend?

Suddenly, a white-haired man appeared, carrying a crimson greatsword engulfed in flames.

Like Lee, Kevin!

—Siegfried, the great-great-great-great-grandson of Siegfried.

The area outside the World Serpent headquarters is in complete chaos. Those experimental monsters, especially those originally modified from humans, will become pawns of domination, causing even greater chaos and madness. Siegfried fought his way in, battling through hordes of monsters.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered the headquarters, I saw several familiar figures.

"Elke?"

Mebius picked up the thread: "He's now joined our World Serpent, codenamed Alpaca, please call him Dr. Alpaca."

"..."

I understand. Please don't repeat that code name again.

Who knows how many convoluted experiences Siegfried had imagined? He finally sighed and patted Chen Jie on the shoulder.

Subsequently, a formal invitation was extended to the World Serpent, and the two organizations temporarily set aside their past disputes and prejudices to jointly deal with the calamity of domination.

“I agree,” Möbius replied quickly, “but…”

Upon hearing these two words, Siegfried, the envoy, frowned.

Generally, the main point of a sentence is usually following a transitional word like "but".

"Besides us, which other organizations are you planning to collaborate with?"

Siegfried replied, "Protective umbrella and destiny."

Mebius narrowed his eyes: "But according to the information I received, this disaster was caused by Destiny."

“To be precise, Otto,” Chen Jie added.

Personnel mobilization, material flow, the massive, umbrella-like core amplification device in the photo, Otto walking into the portal...

As several pieces of evidence were presented to Siegfried, his expression grew increasingly sharp.

"not good!"

If the mastermind behind this is Destiny or Otto, then aren't the Snow Wolf Squad members who are now forming an alliance just walking into the lion's den?!

Siegfried wished he could rush to the Schicksal headquarters the very next moment and stop Cecilia's plane.

"I know you're in a hurry, but don't rush."

From an outsider's perspective, Chen Jie analyzed, "If you start from the Anti-Entropy headquarters and get to World Serpent, from North America to South America, the distance is definitely shorter than going to the Destiny headquarters."

"So now, you should be the first one to arrive. As long as you maintain communication, you should be able to catch the plane heading to the Destiny headquarters."

Therefore, concern leads to confusion.

Siegfried successfully contacted the Snow Wolf Squad and called for them to return.

Unexpectedly, Cecilia, after learning the truth, not only refused to return, but also accelerated her journey to the Schicksal headquarters.

"If Otto is the mastermind behind this, then the ordinary Valkyries and staff are all in grave danger!"

Gan!

This spendthrift woman, does she really think she's a savior?!

Siegfried was anxious; he wanted to catch up with Cecilia as soon as possible.

Although... to be precise, his actual combat strength is not as strong as Cecilia's, but the difference is not significant. When the other party is about to be in danger, it is most reassuring to be by her side and face it together.

"Dr. Einstein and Dr. Tesla are currently conducting an analysis of the Herrscher of Dominion's abilities and location. You may temporarily move to Anti-Entropy headquarters and wait for the representatives from Umbrella."

"I have some personal matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving now."

"and many more."

Mebius raised his hand, and a spatial wall appeared in front of Siegfried.

"Kevin's descendants are just like him, they like to be women's little followers."

She muttered something to herself, then reached out and slid her fingertips down.

Space tore open, and a somewhat familiar scream came from the other side. They began to communicate, preparing to fight.

"Just go straight through, you're going too slow."

The person most shocked by this move was Chen Jie. He didn't move on his side, but locked onto the high-speed aircraft on the other...

Although the Earth is also moving at high speed when compared to other celestial bodies in the universe, creating a space gate that is relatively stationary with respect to the Earth is certainly much simpler than creating a stationary space gate with respect to an airplane.

Based on Chen Jie's own experience, the difficulty of the two is roughly the same as that of an ordinary person cutting Mapo Tofu into pieces of varying sizes versus a chef cutting Wensi Tofu into pieces as fine as hair.

That would require an incredible level of control and a massive amount of calculation; even Elke gets goosebumps just thinking about it.

So terrifying.

She tossed Siegfried over and opened a portal leading to the vicinity of Anti-Entropy headquarters.

"Let's go and see the smartest and most powerful people of this era."

Chapter 198, "Thus Spoke Apocalypse"

(Note: Thus Spoke Zarathustra, Nietzsche, 1883-5. From the plot of Thus Spoke Zarathustra, such as "The Dawn Has Risen. Rise, Great Noon!", and many other points, it is clear that this volume pays homage to Nietzsche in both its title and content. Therefore, this chapter also contains excerpts from this volume.)

……

"You are the sun, shining upon the world, but if those who stand in your light do not deserve all of this, where is your happiness?"

Only when a person truly wants to change the world will they realize how insignificant their power is.

Even as the power of the imaginary number continues to erode him, Otto still remembers the helpless and desperate version of himself he was five hundred years ago.

"The world is so chaotic; it is neither fair nor reasonable. It persecutes heroes, breeds evil, and is ugliness everywhere."

The saint gave everything for the people, but what she received in return was merciless shackles and nooses.

"Therefore, I must descend into the abyss!"

His true form, his true spirit and soul, was now firmly bound to the world of origin, his arms hanging high as if carrying a heavy load, bound together by tree roots into a cross shape.

Can you set your own standards of good and evil?

Otto, dressed in papal robes, stepped forward.

"You are the Pope of destiny, yet you are both judge and lawbreaker. This is terrifying, like a star alone in the desolate, empty space of space, in the cold north wind."

Many crudely made puppets without even faces appeared all around.

At this moment, he is the high and mighty Pope, deceiving and leading those rabble who will not even leave their names in history.

"Yes, the ignorant masses are like a river carrying small boats. They yearn for a goal to worship, to place their last hope and final ecstasy in it."

“But you are not the Exalted One,” the Pope said.

"You are just a weak, humble, lonely person destroyed by emotions. Her death makes you feel alienated and afraid of this world."

No one answered. This was a dominant drama, an irreversible transformation, an ascension from man to god, a one-man show sung for no one.

The faceless people below, in a thousand different voices of men, women, and children, all spoke in unison:

"You had many choices back then."

The pope, holding a heavy Gospel, stood atop a platform erected by the people:

"Kindness tells me that I should carry on Karen's last wish and become a noble and upright person."

"But the narrow-minded souls of the mob always think: all great men are sinful."

“Even if you are kind to them, they will feel despised by you; they will repay your kindness with secret malice.”

What kind of bullshit logic is this? Good people have to be held at gunpoint?

But that's just how reality is.

Often, when faced with the necessity of drawing a knife or raising a gun to aim at someone, most people's first thought is to harm a good person.

Because good people will forgive you, but bullies will retaliate.

Kindness is often taken advantage of.

Pope Otto continued his sermon: "Their foolish and base choice was not wrong in terms of their own survival, but it has driven me to the most insane path."

"Because I cannot forgive all of this like Karen did, even when I was persecuted... So I can only do everything I can to revive her, so that she, like the sun, can radiate light and heat."

“But I don’t regret it. For me, even if the world were to become what Karen wanted it to be, without her, the world would be meaningless.”

The crowd thronged the platform, while the Pope was pushed away hastily.

"Beware of crowds, for they always love to condemn the kind and righteous—they hate the noble because of their baseness."

"They believed that anything not pure was not sacred, and they enjoyed playing with fire—burning piles of firewood."
