Chapter 453 If It’s Possible, Please Let It Shine One Last Time!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Life was just a movie.

Some people were destined to meet.

Although Su Mo had few speculations concerning the origins of the expeditionary force before he made his way to the base, he was still shocked after listening to Su Deben’s story!

He had always wondered why humans would appear at the Wasteland all of a sudden and had never expected that it was because…humans betrayed each other?

Was it because the game exploited opportunities after humans opened the ‘portal’, causing humans to be abducted and brought over to this place?

“Everything is a cycle. We think we’re in control until we aren’t and that’s when we have lost it!”

“Look at this…please!”

Su Deben did a waving gesture after realizing the disappearance of the virtual reality and continued his story whilst scratching his head.

“Su Mo, what I will be saying next may sound bizarre, but it did happen!”

“We, humans used to be Gods on this piece of land!”

“When we came into this world with the help rendered by the game, we managed to create a virtual world and made every one of us the ‘players’!”

“We were not the kind of players that only had a few game panels and limited power. During that time, we could respawn at certain places on the Wasteland immediately after we died, just like what happened during

the fourth natural disaster!”

Su Deben muttered a modern word under his breath.

His uncontrollable shaking made it obvious that he was emotionally overwhelmed even though he had robotic body parts.

“It was a golden age for us, humans at that time. All of the other foreign races were fearful of us. We were not afraid to die and not afraid of sacrifices either.”

“Billions of humans would follow one man’s lead and rally as soon as he commanded.”

“However, it was also at this most glorious moment that the game went…out of control!”

Su Mo, who was listening intently reacted immediately.

“Hmm? Out of control? Unable to respawn?”

Su Deben nodded and replied, “yes, we lost our ability to respawn in one night and had to face the attacks from the aboriginals that led to this downfall.”

“More than half of the human Gods have fallen in the battle within three days and the survivors were scrambling to return home through the portal.”

“However, as you have known, the other end of the portal was not our earth and we could not return!”

“Those sins are unredeemable until now!”

“On the 21st day of the 12th month in the year 2012, the bunch of crazy expeditionary force Gods attempted to open the portal 6896 times as they were seeking the path to the Butterfly Space. They failed in finding it

and hence, this triggered the happening of the worst massacre in history!”

“Many of these portals were still unexplored, but for some portals, once opened, a huge bunch of excited humans would clamber in to explore.”

“Unfortunately, there were no survivors and the world was destroyed!”

Su Deben was huffing and puffing after he said it all in one breath.

This was not physical fatigue, it was more of feeling depressed.

Admitting one’s mistakes and reliving the horrible massacre that happened years ago was torture.

“Do you mean the reason we could enter this world was that someone discovered the portal you opened years ago and provoked a change in the rules?”

Su Deben nodded strongly and replied, “yes!”

“There are different types of the time differences between different earths and the Wasteland. When you’re here for a year, it may mean you’re only spending one day on your earth. The current Terrestrial Time is the

first day of the first month in year two thousand!”

“If it was not for you guys who had voluntarily discovered the portals and entered, the last batch of survivors on the Wasteland could have perished and the game could take this opportunity to abduct a new batch of

humans to continue with their plans.”

Their current altitude was forty-eight thousand meters high according to the dashboard.

Nevertheless, there was still light and clouds.

However, after listening to what Su Deben had said, Su Mo felt as though he could see the light.

“After that great war, we as survivors divided ourselves into three groups.”

“The first group chose to maintain their identity as players, continued their activities on the Wasteland, and secretly helped new players who were the cream of the crop to reduce the injury rate and fatality.”

“The second group gave up on their identity as players. They became ordinary human beings and used science and technology to discover the secrets of the Wasteland and figured out ways to close all portals!”

“The third group consists of human Gods. All of them left this world and went somewhere else beyond our sight and continued to work hard. We have not seen them for at least ten years!”

“The place that we’re heading to now is the place we suspect where the third group is currently at and we’re going to seek their help!”

“You should know the reason we have failed by now!”

Su Mo nodded and asked, “because we are no longer a God?”

“Yes, being a God is like an entrance ticket. You’re qualified to make an entrance or else you will…boom!”

Su Deben guffawed while he mimed something that looked like fireworks being set off and proceeded to rummage through the odds and ends.

He felt a sense of lightness he had never experienced after pouring his heart out.

He also felt a sense of hope on the eve of his death as he observed the cloud changes through the observation window.

Moments later, Su Deben fished out a rock from the pile of random things and returned to his seat next to Su Mo.

“Su Mo, my father was once the God of Light, and was in control of the power of the light!”

“Unfortunately, he fell into the darkness just like the rest of the Gods at the end.”

“He passed this last thing to me before he left. If it’s possible…please let it shine one last time!”

After passing the rock over, Su Deben closed his tired eyes and dozed off while leaning against the wall.

The connector between the robot and the glass brain box released a cracking noise which signified the disconnection.

Before crossing the barrier, Su Deben mentioned he was not afraid, but he was still not bold enough to face his inner demons!

ot everyone could be a monk who renounced worldly pursuits.

The more one knew, the more fear of death one would have!

it was a pity Su Deben returned too soon.

ot only did he not see the shocked Su Mo who rose to his feet, but he also missed the vibrant white-colored glow from the rock as soon as it was placed down!

Authority!

tt came knocking on the door despite such a situation!

“This… is this the Authority of Light?”

Su Mo was deep in thought when Su Deben handed over the rock.

When Su Mo snapped back to reality, he rose to his feet in shock as soon as he saw the appraisal system.

Holy Rock (0.46% Wasteland Operational Authority)]

Description: Stars shine the brightest on the darkest night, a speck of dust is visible under a beam of light. Darkness signifies one-to-one. Light signifies one-to-many. When in possession, you will be the brightest

existence amidst the darkness, and even small specks of dust would not miss you. If you have decided to bring light to all men, please hold on to it firmly.]

Current Authority: 0.46%]

Authority Interpretation: Light]

Authority Power: If you choose to take on this Authority, you are given one chance to modify the Light attributes once every 15 days on the Wasteland. You are allowed to change the effects of the light rays as you

please. (The number of times is not cumulative and will be recalculated after every usage. The increase in Authority will bring about the reduction in cooldown time.)]

Penalty 1: By wielding this authority, you will be labeled as an “Old God” and will be blocked by the game. You will not have access to any functions of the game panel. (Unless your Authority level is 51% and above)]

Penalty 2: By using the strength modification power that comes with the Authority, you will be the center of attention. The more power is used, the higher the chance you will be found.]

Penalty 3: Once you are found, your Authority will be taken away, and you will be flagged in the game. The number of disasters in the area within your range of five hundred thousand kilometers will be increased by

five hundred thousand times.]

Comment: Men are like trees. The higher they grow towards the sunlight, the deeper the roots have to grow into the soil.]

Although the Authority of Light is 0.46% only and comparing it to the Authority of the God of Cooking, it still has a valuable attribute!

Su Deben’s father had indeed left him with something good.

It would be a shame to have lost it, but after reading the comment above, Su Mo finally understood the reason Su Deben had not been able to control that thing well up till now.

“The way I see it, the Food Authority could have been a gift left behind by the Creator Gods.”

“Righteous thieves…”

“They’re indeed for the good of all mankind!”

Su Mo changed to his second form while having the rock in his hand, and gently crushed the rock.

In an instant, a warm light enveloped his left arm.

The light seemed to have detected there were other forms of Authority in Su Mo’s body.

Instantly, Su Mo’s right arm lit up as well. It was the Authority of the God of Cooking.

The two different sources of power started to merge together in Su Mo’s body.

With Su Mo as a carrier, the light crept up to his upper arms and met right at his chest.

It looked oddly elegant when the white-colored light was highlighted with a tinge of premium ash-colored light.

The 1% of authority Su Mo had, grew substantially to 1.46%!

On another hand, the game’s Authority had permanently lost a few control abilities!

The game could no longer interfere in any Light-related disasters going forward!

“Not bad, the harvest is plentiful this round!”

“Not only do I have 8 research geniuses, a high-level authoritative army officer, and having the Light Authority…”

“Although I can’t find the Sea God, this is still a big win for me!”

Su Mo looked at the crushed rock and contemplated before tilting his head back to swallow all of it.

With the enhancement of the two forms of Authority, although Yang Jian’s body was of flesh and bones, there were already earth-shattering changes happening within.

There was no issue in digesting the crushed rock!

Subsequently, Su Mo took a rock and a chisel out of his storage space.

He made a replica of the Holy Rock, drilled a hole, strung it, and wore it on his neck carefully.

If he wished to obtain more than 51% of the Authority, the game would have a higher possibility of wreaking havoc in the latter days.

This important matter had to be taken to extremes..
