Worldwide Awakening: My Soul Kinds Are Lost-Chapter 399: The Last Twenty-Four Hours_1

The Dean, transformed into a divine human form, expanded rapidly. He maintained a human silhouette, yet his entire body exhibited numerous beast-like traits. These peculiar traits, intermingled, did not make him appear strange or discordant. On the contrary, he possessed a transcendent charm.

However, in Wang Linchi’s eyes, this charm felt incredibly awkward. His spiritual power was so immense that the Dean’s external appearance had little impact on him; instead, it merely struck him as odd.

"Hahaha, such immense power, originating from the great ancient era!!!" the Dean laughed maniacally, his voice forming sonic waves that swept outward.

It had to be said, as his size increased, so did the volume of his voice.

However, this behavior seemed to directly enrage the Game System.

Wang Linchi moved further and further away, primarily because the Dean was acting far too recklessly, practically courting death.

As the first Erroneous Sin with dual attributes, he is indeed extraordinary. Wang Linchi estimated the upcoming battle. To devour the Dean, I’d need to go to considerable trouble. At the very least, I’d have to resort to a suicidal attack to get the Dean into my stomach; otherwise, we’d be evenly matched.

SNAP!

Just as Wang Linchi had run about ten kilometers, he heard a loud crack, followed shortly by the Dean’s ROARING.

The fight had begun. He retreated another ten kilometers but could still feel the tremors from their battle. This time, the Game System seemed to have abandoned meteors, employing a higher-level ability instead.

Wang Linchi had realized that the meteor attack was, in fact, an outdated technique. It had been effective against the Abyssal Demons within the game, possessing special offensive properties and capable of inflicting maximum damage. However, in reality, the Erroneous Sins were individually unyielding. Being outside the game, they lost their advantages of time and place, resulting in a significant reduction in their damage output.

I’m not asking for much, just fight until Ye Tian finishes his seclusion. Wang Linchi sneered.

Given the Dean’s continuous provocations and death-courting behavior, there was no way the Game System would let him off this time.

He suspected the divine human form the Dean had transformed into was actually the Sky God’s former appearance. Now, an enemy was wearing His former appearance and using it against Him—an insult anyone would find unbearable.

It could only be chalked up to a strange twist of fate.

Thankfully, I haven’t utilized the World Nucleus Prototype. If I had, I would be the one being relentlessly pursued and attacked. Wang Linchi also felt fortunate. Luckily, he had been unable to handle it back then. He also hadn’t listened to whatever Illusion God Purple Light had said, and had merely treated the World Nucleus Prototype as a component of the Philosopher’s Stone.

To use it, the best way is naturally to kill the Game System. What else could be done?

However, the Dean’s Growth to this extent is largely thanks to the Sky God’s heart; without it, he would just be an ordinary person.

In Wang Linchi’s view, the Dean’s Growth somewhat resembled his own; both had received substantial help in their early stages. The Dean had the Stone Heart, while he had an abundance of Luck. In the beginning, he truly couldn’t claim to rely solely on strength. Without Luck, he would have died countless times over; he wouldn’t have even passed the Rainbow Soul Seed trial.

The shockwaves are spreading wider; I need to retreat further. Just as Wang Linchi paused, he noticed the range of the skirmish between the Dean and the Game System was expanding. Wang Linchi had no choice but to continue retreating.

The more fiercely they fight, the faster the world will collapse. This is disastrous. Wang Linchi commented inwardly.

Although those two were the ones fighting, the world was footing the bill for all their expenditures. This was especially true now that they had reached the pinnacle of power in this world; every attack was a conscious manifestation, and their consumption was countless times greater than that of other Erroneous Sins.

BOOM!

Wang Linchi felt a terrifying tremor. Huge cracks appeared on the ground, and the sky itself seemed on the verge of shattering.

Is the world unable to withstand it?

No, it’s about to shut down! Wang Linchi was practically speechless.

What a mess those two had made... Oh, wait, Ye Tian should probably be included too. After all, the cost of his actions was also being borne by the world.

Wang Linchi hurriedly began to calculate the world’s data.

One month? No, twenty-nine days. It dropped again... For a moment, Wang Linchi didn’t know what to say. This time, it was truly perilous.

Of course, the peril was for the world; it had nothing to do with Wang Linchi. He would rather see the world shut down.

If the world shut down, all Erroneous Sins would lose their foundation. Once the world they parasitized died, they would lose all their original abilities, whether it was their rules of killing or their immortality. Worse, some might not even be able to maintain their own existence and could disintegrate directly.

Even if entities like the Game System or the Dean in his divine human form were to survive, they would gradually die out, as their source of power would be gone. However, compared to instant death, they could at least linger on for a while.

Finally, it has stopped. Wang Linchi watched as the countdown eventually paused at ten days, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

However, time hadn’t stopped because the battle between the Game System and the divine human form had ceased. Instead, the world itself had activated some kind of emergency measure, forcibly extending its own existence.

Its life was prolonged, yet numerous cracks, signs of decay, and corruption continuously emerged from every region.

"Are you there? Are you there?" Wang Linchi called out to the Fate Devil God.

The Fate Devil God didn’t reply instantly, waiting for about three minutes before responding, "Yes, I am."

His voice was extremely Weak, sounding as if he were on his last breath.

"How much longer does Ye Tian need to succeed?" Wang Linchi asked hastily.

"Have you discovered something?" the Fate Devil God countered instead of answering.

"The world will shut down in just ten days, and that’s after forcibly extending its life. Once it shuts down, there will be no more chances," Wang Linchi stated directly.

The plan to merge with the Dao and mend the heavens fundamentally required the world not to shut down or die. If it died, even if Ye Tian dragged Wang Linchi over as raw material, it couldn’t be saved. He couldn’t even resurrect a dead person, let alone a dead world.

"I understand. At most, Ye Tian will succeed within one more day. If possible, could you help alleviate the world’s pressure?" said the Fate Devil God.

Wang Linchi’s eyes widened. "Me? Alleviate the world’s pressure?"

Of course, he knew how: go over and thrash the Game System and the Dean in his divine human form, let them taste the harshness of reality, and then make them behave.

"I can make the Dean behave, but the Game System is another matter. It’s intangible and formless. Unless you can tell me where Its server is, I can’t deal with It until I destroy that," Wang Linchi wasn’t afraid of a two-on-one fight, but the Game System’s unique nature somewhat countered him, leaving him with no real solution. Going there would only mean passively taking a beating.

After being tricked by him several times, the Game System was extremely cautious with any interference. There was no longer a suitable opportunity to use that ’Millennium Kill’ technique again.

"The Game System doesn’t have a server. Or rather, Its server is the entire world—unless you destroy the world."

"So, we can compromise. You go there and act as a third party, deterring them from acting recklessly," the Fate Devil God offered a rather good suggestion.

Deterrence as a third party? More like drawing their fire. In the worst-case scenario, I’ll be the one getting beaten up.

Have a heart! I’m just getting a bit of data from you, and you want me to go endure a day of beatings? Wang Linchi thought, trying to press further to see if the Fate Devil God had other solutions.

"If we fail, everything will be lost, and your previous investments will go down the drain. Considering your situation—you can’t die anyway—why worry?"

"I can add another bargaining chip. As long as you hold out, the Destiny Ye Tian and I possess will be yours. We won’t need it anymore."

"We can settle it now," the Fate Devil God proposed a condition Wang Linchi couldn’t refuse.

"Alright! Never mind one day; even if they beat me for a month, I’ll take it!" Wang Linchi agreed without hesitation.

Previously, any benefits he obtained were only given after the other party succeeded. But this was different; the Destiny was being given directly, an advance payment.

When there were no benefits, Wang Linchi was timid and feared beatings.

But when the benefits were substantial, he was fearless.

"Let me be clear beforehand. Due to the world’s condition, the Destiny we have on hand can, at most, complete your deficient Destiny. The quantity is extremely scarce and might not align with your expectations," the Fate Devil God stated truthfully, not hiding anything.

No problem, I don’t mind. Wang Linchi, though realizing the amount would be less, didn’t care. The important thing was that it could be completed. What he had originally obtained was indeed only one-fifth of each person’s share.
