Su Mo had previously obtained six items to pass the level, namely the Ancestor Blood Code, the Faceless Enzyme, the Black Zetsu Virus, the Structural Larva, the Human Documents, and the Blasphemy Sword.

The final seventh item is the "Spear of Judgment" which can only be obtained after defeating the final BOSS mastermind.

In the game "Dawn", these props have their own functions and meanings, most of which are functional.

For example, the Ancestral Blood Code and Faceless Enzyme, the former allows players to be compatible with multiple blood codes, while the latter is used to open a multi-professional system.

Aside from functionality, they don't have much impact on the plot itself.

If I have to say, it is that these functional props allow players to break through the "limits" at the setting level and have the capital for the final showdown with the mastermind.

At the end of the game, Dawn has multiple endings, which are determined by the various choices made by the player in the plot and how to deal with the props to pass the game.

For example, the most tragic "world-destroying ending" in the evil line is triggered by the corruption of the structure larvae.

As long as the player obtains the construct larva, in various plot options, she will not be treated as a human being, and will be locked up for various abusive and inhumane research.

She will become cold-blooded from an early age, have no identification with humans, and degenerate into a construct in the traditional sense.

And I don’t know whether I should say that it is the producer’s bad taste to construct a plot line about the fall of the larva, and the dialogues are full of various temptations.

Researchers will advise you to use her to do this or that experiment, and we will get crucial results.

This is not just empty talk. The branch rewards players get in the fallen storyline are really much higher than treating her well.

Many first-time beta testers are "strength-conscious" and will work hard to construct larvae for various rewards.

When the player reaches the final BOSS, as long as the corrupted construct larvae are still alive in the plot, the corresponding ending animation will be triggered after defeating the main brain.

The structure larvae will take advantage of the player's weakness after defeating the main brain and directly backstab, making a filial piety.

Afterwards, the player fell to the ground seriously injured and could only watch the countdown of the Spear of Judgment's attack return to zero. Endless scorching light fell from the sky, and the construct turned its back to the star rain and grinned at the player.

Finally, at the end of the world, human civilization will be completely destroyed, and the once defeated construct civilization will rise again and become the only intelligent civilization in the world.

The other "Devil Ending" in the evil line is relatively more complicated to trigger.

First of all, before the final BOSS battle, the player must ruthlessly kill the construct larvae, and after defeating the main brain, choose to monopolize the Spear of Judgment and become the supreme ruler of the world.

This ending has the richest content. After the ending is triggered, the player will get an additional BOSS battle.

The opponent in this BOSS battle is none other than the companion who has walked side by side with him throughout the plot.

Because from the perspective of the plot setting, the protagonist who chooses the "Devil's Ending" has actually betrayed all of humanity and attempted to use the Spear of Judgment, a world-destroying weapon, as a bargaining chip for his own rule over the world.

In this additional BOSS battle, companions in the game process will come one after another to fight against the protagonist, and the player needs to kill them one by one.

For the players outside the screen, it is a very uncomfortable feeling to see their companions who used to be with them day and night being killed one after another by their own hands.

After killing all his companions, the protagonist completely transformed into a demon, slaughtered resistance forces around the world, wiped out hundreds of millions of people, and finally established a dictatorship that was even more ruthless than the giant corporations.

Human civilization still continues, but everyone lives under the claws of the devil, and the world enters the darkest age.

Of course, there is an evil ending, and naturally there is also a good ending.

For example, as long as the player chooses to care for the young structure in the plot, allowing it to have a warm childhood and gradually identify with humans, the backstab plot will not be triggered after the final BOSS battle.

At this time, the player needs to choose to use the Black Zetsu virus to invade the control terminal of the Spear of Judgment, allowing this world-destroying weapon to self-destruct in space, which will trigger the "Dawn Ending".

Giant companies fell.

The Spear of Judgment also no longer exists.

The protagonist became a savior and was admired by everyone after his return.

Human civilization, which had been imprisoned in darkness for a long time, finally saw the dawn and continued to thrive like a spark.

This ending seems beautiful and it is a happy ending.

But it’s just an illusion.

In the second animation at the end, more than ten years have passed. The protagonist wakes up in a luxurious bedroom, overlooking the bustling city through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and then receives a message to go to the conference room for a meeting.

The companions who once fought side by side against the giants were all there. Each of them was elegant and dressed in a suit. They drank high-end coffee and talked about the reports on the holographic screen, discussing how to maximize profits for this quarter.

The morning news also began to broadcast on TV. The company founded by the protagonist after the war has become a leader in various fields and has become the only force with global dominance. Its prestige even exceeds that of the world government re-established after the war.

At this time, the companion handed the protagonist a document, the general content of which was that the Sky City had been repaired and the company could move its headquarters there at any time.

Yes, the sky city that fell in the sky rose again, floating proudly above the heads of the people.

The heroes who emerged from the uprising war took off their military uniforms and put on neat suits.

The rebels who once overthrew the giants have now become the new giants.

Privilege, monopoly, gap between the rich and the poor, and class differentiation.

Everything that happened in the past is destined to happen again in the future.

What is dawn?

Dawn is simply the sun rising.

After dawn, the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, and will eventually disappear into the night.

The dragon slayer becomes a dragon, waiting for the next dragon slayer.

It's like a never-ending cycle.

There are more than a dozen endings in the game "Dawn". The above three are relatively easy to trigger. In addition, there are some endings that can be achieved by special means.

But no matter which plot line the player takes, there is no perfect ending.

Even the seemingly most passionate one, "Dawn Ending", ends with a dark metaphor.

An internal test player once asked the game producer of Dawn whether a truly perfect ending would be added to the game in the future.

The producer said no.

Because the tone of the Dawn game is darkness. In such a high-tech, low-life world, human selfishness and greed will be maximized, and the word "perfect" does not exist.

Since the producer did not design a perfect ending, it is naturally impossible for players to get it.

After all, games are just games, programs framed by code.

Players cannot perform operations outside the program framework.

For example, the "Human Documents" item is a pass-through item that is set to "contain all the documentary materials of human civilization."

But in the game, the actual role of human documents is only to open up functions such as independent equipment creation, tempering, and upgrading to players.

Like Sumer, let the construct larvae come into contact with human documents and absorb the knowledge contained in them.

Sorry, can't do it.

The planner never designed this feature.

After all, no matter how high the degree of freedom of a game is, the choices and operations that players can perform are limited, and it is impossible to play something outside the framework.

But reality is different.

Reality has endless possibilities.

The reality is not to choose one of a dozen endings such as destruction, devil, dawn, etc., but to create a new direction.

And now, Su Mo has to choose his own "ending".

"I do not destroy the Spear of Judgment."

As soon as Su Mo said this, the noisy voices in the live broadcast disappeared.

There are more than just the lucky people in the video who can talk directly to Sumer.

People in cities across the country who were cheering and watching the live broadcast with great interest were all stunned, as if the whole world had fallen into deathly silence.

Does not destroy the Spear of Judgment.

What do you mean?

Since that thing called Black Zetsu virus can do it, why not destroy it?

What's the point of keeping this world-destroying weapon?

No one knew what Su Mo meant by this, and no one knew what he wanted to do.

Just when everyone was at a loss, Su Mo called out, "Qi Ling."

There was no response from Qi Ling, but Su Mo knew that she must have come in and could hear it.

His next words shocked everyone.

Su Mo: "Destroy the source code of the Black Zetsu virus and all its backups."

In an instant, loud exclamations arose, and everyone was shocked by this order.

"Captain Su, what do you want to do?!"

"You said it yourself, the Black Zetsu virus is the only thing humans can use to control the Spear of Judgment, why did you destroy it?"

"Yes! You neither destroyed the Spear of Judgment nor the Black Zetsu Virus. Aren't you deliberately leaving trouble behind?!"

The surprised voice of the future was also heard: "Boss, what are you doing?! The Black Zetsu virus is a product that surpasses current technology. If its source code and backup are all destroyed, we will never be able to find it again! Why are you..."

At this time, Qi Ling's calm voice sounded: "The source code and backup of the Black Zetsu virus have been completely destroyed."

Future: "Qiling, you?!"

Since the connections of other people only transmit sound, it is impossible to see what is happening over at the Edge Building, nor do I know the expressions of Wei Lai, Qi Ling, and others.

But one thing is for sure.

For Qi Ling, who has lived to this day only for Su Mo, she might be confused and question some of his actions.

But no matter what she thought in her heart, as long as it was Su Mo's request, she would carry it out without reservation.

She said that everything had been destroyed, which meant that everything had been destroyed. There was no possibility of deception or secretly keeping a copy.

From the moment she entered the destruction command, the direction of human civilization was changed.

There is nothing in this world that can threaten the Spear of Judgment anymore.

This ultimate weapon belonging to the construct will hang over the heads of the people all year round and become an eternal deterrent.

"Captain Su, are you..."

Someone spoke, his voice trembled uncontrollably and his tone sounded unbelievable, but he still asked the question in his heart.

"Do you want to monopolize the Spear of Judgment and use it to control all of humanity?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the communication frequency band fell into silence, and an unspeakable atmosphere of oppression spread wantonly.

Yes

Keep the Spear of Judgment while destroying the Black Zetsu virus that threatens the Spear of Judgment.

Why else?

Throughout history, there have been many stories of dragon slayers becoming evil dragons.

As soon as this thought arose, everyone who had previously regarded Su Mo as a savior and admired him now felt the same fear.

However, at this moment, there was no enthusiasm brought by ambition in Su Mo's eyes, only the usual calmness: "You are half right."

"I left behind the Spear of Judgment because I really wanted to use it as a trump card, an ultimate deterrent."

"Looking back at the history of wars in the old days, there were many world wars before the invention of nuclear weapons. After the invention of nuclear weapons, there has never been a global war. This is the meaning of ultimate deterrence."

"The same goes for the Spear of Judgment. Only a weapon of this level of destruction can be used to equally shock and intimidate the world and put an end to all future wars."

"However, you are wrong about one thing. From now on, I will not be the one to control the Spear of Judgment."

"The Black Zetsu virus has been destroyed. No human can control it, including me."

"As the ultimate weapon of the construct civilization, the Spear of Judgment is naturally controlled by the construct itself."

Since only a small number of senior government officials knew the truth about the Doomsday War 156 years ago and the general public knew nothing about it, Sumer then spent a long time explaining about the constructs so that everyone could have a detailed understanding of them.

"I have defeated the construct's main brain, but it has not been completely destroyed. I have deliberately preserved its light core, and will be able to reshape the body soon."

"However, the former mastermind will never appear again. I will erase all consciousness in the light core and transfer Su Motong's consciousness into it, allowing her to upgrade from "Queen Bee" to "Mastermind."

"In the long years to come, Su Motong, who has absorbed all the knowledge of human documents, will serve as the supreme ruler of the world and lead all of us to move forward."

As expected, everyone was in an uproar when these words were spoken.

If Sumer himself held the Spear of Judgment and was about to become an emperor above all mankind, everyone's reaction might not be so big, because it was completely unexpected but reasonable.

But Su Mo actually wants to give this position to Su Motong?

Human civilization is actually going to be led by a non-human alien species?

Is it even possible that this alien species was the culprit that destroyed the old human civilization 156 years ago?

A boiling noise suddenly filled the communication channel:

"We can't do this! How can we let the constructs rule us?!"

"Yes! I accept that you are the ruler of the new world, even if you support other companions to take the position. How can you give this position to a civilization hostile to mankind?"

"Is this guy controlled by the construct? Yes! He must be controlled by the construct! Is there anyone near Crescent City? Go and take care of him!"

At the end of the commotion, seeing that Su Mo's eyes were unshaken, someone finally couldn't help but shout out what he had been holding back in his heart:

"Sumo! You are betraying all of humanity by doing this!"
