Chapter 654: Main World Confirmed! Already Fused? Ten Billion Points!
[Mumei: Lord of Myriad Worlds! It sounds like a big deal!]
[Tsunade: Anyone can tell just by looking, after all, it's a function that requires 1 billion doomsday points to activate.]
[Silver Wolf: This judgment is indeed correct, but the amount of information within it is far more than that.]
[Shiroyasha: Hehe, I think this function is a bit exaggerated.]
Hakoniwa, The City of Little Garden.
In the luxurious VIP room of the Thousand Eyes branch, the atmosphere was heavy with an uncharacteristic tension. The intricate paper fan in Shiroyasha's hand snapped shut with a crisp sound that echoed through the room. She narrowed her eyes, her golden pupils shimmering with a mix of intrigue and profound wariness.
Beside her, Leticia Draculair, dressed in her pristine maid outfit, stood as quiet and still as a porcelain doll. However, her crimson eyes were drawn to her master. It was the first time the usually calm, playful, and somewhat lecherous Shiroyasha had showed such a serious, almost grave expression in front of her.
"Lord of Myriad Worlds..." Shiroyasha muttered the title under her breath, testing the weight of the words.
One should know that Hakoniwa, where she resided, was constructed on a scale that defied mortal comprehension. The world outside Hakoniwa, according to the information Ren had previously obtained from the Devouring King, was merely one "Great World" among the infinite Myriad Worlds. Hakoniwa itself was a convergence point for gods, buddhas, and myths from countless histories and universes.
But to fuse the Great World where Hakoniwa is located with other completely distinct worlds? To merge cosmologies that operated on fundamentally different laws of physics and magic?
Such a thing was truly shocking. It bordered on the conceptual authority of the highest-ranking Truths of the universe.
Even Shiroyasha, a former Demon Lord of the White Night who once held authority over the sun's motion, sat up straight in her chair. She stared at the holographic interface of the Chat Group, waiting to see what Ren would say.
[Ren: Although fusing worlds is indeed exaggerated, I think what we should pay more attention to is the Doomsday of Annihilation and the unceasing gaze of the Lord of Myriad Worlds candidates.]
[Emilia: Oh, does that mean even after Doomsday ends in our world, we'll still be targeted again?]
In the Kingdom of Lugnica, Emilia sat in her room, clutching her puck-shaped pillow tightly. The mere thought that resolving their current crisis might not be the end—that there were beings out there constantly watching, waiting to unleash a "Doomsday of Annihilation"—sent a shiver down her spine.
[Vivi: Doesn't that mean our world is still very dangerous, and new Doomsdays could appear at any time?]
[Ren: I'm not entirely sure about the specifics, and it seems similar situations haven't occurred in anyone's world within the Chat Group either.]
[Silver Wolf: No, there was one similar situation.]
Ren paused, his fingers hovering over the interface.
[Ren: Oh?]
[Kushina: Was there? I don't remember.]
[March 7th: Huh? As one of the first members to join the Chat Group, I don't remember either.]
Inside the Stellaron Hunters' base, Silver Wolf blew a bubble with her gum, her fingers dancing across her holographic keyboard. She remembered the data logs perfectly.
[Silver Wolf: Ren, did you forget? That time you were invited to our world by Tingyun and attacked by the Time Calamity King.]
[Ren: ...]
Well. That really was a thing.
Ren leaned back in the sofa of his villa, rubbing his temples. The memory of that encounter was vivid. The Time Calamity King was an entity that operated on a scale that made standard planetary threats look like microbes. If that was the caliber of enemy that the "Lord of Myriad Worlds" function attracted, then the risks were astronomical.
[Erza: Speaking of which, the changed Doomsday I encountered after solving the Black Dragon Acnologia in my world.]
Oh, the Devouring King incident in the world of Fairy Tail could also barely count. That was another instance where resolving one threat seemed to merely invite the gaze of a higher predator.
After a moment of thought, Ren began to type, his expression hardening.
[Ren: If we count it that way, there is indeed a possibility of being targeted again.]
[Ren: And then there's the Doomsday of Annihilation after activating the Lord of Myriad Worlds. What kind of Doomsday this is remains unknown.]
[Nami: If we're unlucky and it's a very terrifying Doomsday, wouldn't that be very dangerous?]
On the deck of the Thousand Sunny, Nami gripped her Clima-Tact, her knuckles turning white. The ocean was scary enough; she didn't need cosmic horrors looking at her.
[Ren: Whether it's dangerous or not, we'll only know after trying.]
[Shiroyasha: I also have a question here.]
Back in Hakoniwa, Shiroyasha tapped her fan against her chin, her mind racing through the cosmological implications.
[Shiroyasha: How large exactly is the so-called fused world? According to the Chat Group's initial definition for each person's world, it's everyone's initial cognitive world.]
[Shiroyasha: For example, a planet in the eyes of ordinary people, or the human body in the eyes of White Blood Cell and them.]
This was the crux of the issue. The definition of "World" was subjective in the Chat Group system.
[Shiroyasha: But the worlds they are in actually have the existence of the universe. What will be fused in such a situation?]
If White Blood Cell's "world" (a human body) was fused into Ren's world, would a giant human body suddenly appear in Tokyo? Or would the entire universe containing that human body be merged? The scale difference was exponential.
[Kiana: Uh… so many convoluted words, I don't want to think…]
[Durandal: Kiana, don't rely too much on Saeko and the others. You have great talent; think more.]
[Kiana: !!! This isn't the time to lecture me!]
[Saeko Busujima: Shiroyasha-san's question is indeed worth pondering. If it's a fusion above the universe, such a process is somewhat unimaginable.]
[Tokisaki Kurumi: Ren, Ren-kun, what do you think?]
[Ren: ...]
Ren twitched his lips. How would he know the answer to this question if he hadn't tried it? How else could he look at it? He wasn't the system developer; he was just the user with the highest privileges.
[Ren: I'm standing and looking.]
[Ren: No one can know the answers to these questions you're asking without trying.]
[Ren: Before that, let's first choose the main world. We can talk about the rest later.]
He opened the specific administration panel. He had a function that could be activated by voting.
"Ding! Lord of Myriad Worlds Main World Voting Selection has begun!"
A selection interface appeared before everyone in the Doomsday Chat Group. It was a holographic poll, floating in the vision of every member across the multiverse. The options included the worlds represented by each group member's avatar.
Ren chose his own world without any hesitation. It was the most logical choice. His world was where he resided, where his power base was established, and where the Infinite Tree was rooted.
He sent a reminder to the group.
[Ren: The main world chosen by vote will be permanently selected as the main world for the Lord of Myriad Worlds, so everyone should consider and choose carefully.]
[Nameless: Brother, I chose your world.]
In the steampunk world of Hinomoto, Mumei tapped the screen without a second thought. To her, Ren was the safest place in the multiverse.
[Tushan Honghong: I also chose Ren Ge's world.]
[Ren: This… never mind. For those who haven't chosen yet, let me remind you that if you choose my world, you need to be careful.]
[Furina: Oh oh, Ren, you want to remind everyone about the Doomsday in your world, right?]
[Tatsumaki: I almost forgot, your world still has three 12-star Doomsdays! That's the real danger, isn't it?]
The reminder sent a ripple of hesitation through the group. A 12-star Doomsday was a threat level that theoretically surpassed the destruction of single universes. Merging into such a world was akin to jumping into a tiger's den to escape a wolf.
[Ren: Tsk, that's why I'm reminding you to consider carefully.]
[Yuzuriha Inori: Ren, I also chose your world.]
[Ren: En, just follow your heart.]
[Shiroyasha: Oh my, if you don't choose his world, you can choose mine too.]
[Nami: Uh, do you have to recruit people for this kind of thing?]
Just as everyone was discussing, not long after, the system made its final tally.
The Chat Group popped up a new notification.
[Ding! All group members have voted, voting has ended!]
[Ding! Voting result: Doomsday Chat Group Administrator Ren's world received 27 votes, the highest number of votes!]
[Ding! Ren's world has officially become the Lord of Myriad Worlds main world, and fusion permission can be activated at any time!]
"This…"
Ren sat up in his room, looking at the floating text. There were over thirty people in the Chat Group. But the final confirmed main world was his own world; Ren was surprised, but not overly so.
After all, he had many women in the group who trusted him implicitly, and many others who viewed him as the strongest pillar of support. It was a vote of confidence, but also a heavy responsibility.
However, the subsequent prompts both delighted him and shocked everyone.
[Ding! Detecting existing fused worlds in the Chat Group!]
[White Blood Cell's world has been fused! Ren gains 1 billion doomsday points, White Blood Cell gains 100 million doomsday points!]
[Platelet's world has been fused! Ren gains 1 billion doomsday points, Platelet gains 100 million doomsday points!]
The world where Furina resides has merged! Ren gained 10 billion doomsday points, and Furina gained 1 billion doomsday points!
