Players are coming, fortunately I have a time travel simulator

"Oh my god, I'm numb. Isn't this really a heroic fantasy movie?"

"Me too. I just saw the protagonist shoot Charles I to death. I got goosebumps all over my body."

"I can only say Wayne Stewell, the eternal God! I am now looking forward to what will happen next."

Behind Zhou Ning, the players suppressed their excitement and followed closely behind. In their opinion, the scene before them was undoubtedly a cutscene of the main quest, and it was the kind of plot that made them completely immersed in it. It felt like they were watching the most awesome fantasy movie.

The protagonist's already towering image is elevated to new heights. Though his power has drastically increased, having become the King of Angels at the pinnacle of the Apocalypse, his character remains unchanged: he remains the same Wayne Stewell. He sympathizes with the weak, remains unafraid of the powerful, and dares to speak up for the underdog, even confronting the strongest.

If Apocalypse has become the national game in recent times, then players generally agree that the best thing about Apocalypse's success is that it created the extremely charismatic protagonist Wayne Stewell.

There were still lightning and thunder in the sky, and heavy rain was falling. Zhou Ning held up his umbrella, and walked up the city wall step by step in silence without saying a word. High on the city wall, the flag of the Kingdom of Braxton was hung, a red flag with a golden lion painted on it.

A brilliant divine lightning bolt fell accurately and hit the flag, igniting it in the heavy rain, and burning it to ashes after a moment.

The game panel prompted again:

[The progress of the "Kingdom Has No Eternity" quest has been updated.]

[Lower the flag of the Kingdom of Braxton (1/1).]

Zhou Ning then climbed the 149 steps to the top of the bell tower on the city wall. At the end of the steps was the Huddlestone Bell, named after the royal family's surname, Huddlestone.

Known as the heart of Dockland, this clock was designed by the renowned alchemist Augustus. It is inlaid with 312 sun crystals and has a pendulum weighing 305 kilograms. It is only played during parliamentary sessions or in honor of the gods. It is also the symbol of the Kingdom of Bryston.

He climbed the stairs one by one and stopped in front of the Huddlestone clock. He reached out and grabbed the hammer and struck the bell hard.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

This is a condolence to the Turins, to Leandro's parents, to my friend John, to Sylvia, and to all those who died in this incident.

It is also the royal family of the Kingdom of Braxton, and is the death knell of the royal power of the Kingdom of Braxton.

[The progress of the "Kingdom Has No Eternity" quest has been updated.]

【Ring the Huddlestone Bell (1/1).】

At this time, there was not much time left before the third dream was completely destroyed. The people of Daklan had gathered under the city wall, and wailing and crying could be heard everywhere.

Although they had not witnessed the death of Charles I and did not necessarily know the truth of the incident, they had a general idea of ​​what had happened after hearing the stories of other insiders. Then, seeing the destruction of the flag of the Kingdom of Bryston and the tolling of the royal death knell, they were filled with tears and bowed their heads in unison, chanting along with the others:

"Praise you, the great Lord Sternwell!"

"Praise you, great angel of wishes!"

Amidst the seemingly tangible praises and the scattered lights of wishes, Zhou Ning's power to make wishes was finally sublimely elevated.

[Your power of wishing has been upgraded and is currently at "mastery."]

After experiencing two nightmarish disasters, after losing many relatives and friends, after struggling in countless sweatshops and under heavy taxes, this is what the people of Docklands want.

Zhou Ning looked up at the sky, slowly exhaled, and walked down the stairs step by step. After everyone followed him out of the Darkland Fortress, he turned his back to the Darkland Fortress, snapped his fingers, and silently made a wish.

"I want Darkland Fortress destroyed forever."

The next second, a loud bang was heard behind him, and the huge Dakhlan Fortress collapsed into ruins.

[The progress of the "Kingdom Has No Eternity" quest has been updated.]

【Destroy Darkland Fortress (1/1).】

Immediately afterwards, a series of prompts popped up on the panel:

【Congratulations: The King's Power Is Not Eternal has been completed.】

【当前任务目标一：在现实层面敲响赫德尔斯通大钟（1/1），彻底毁灭达克兰要塞。（1/1）降下布莱斯顿王国旗帜（1/1）】

[Current Mission Objective 1: Kill Charles I (1/1), Kill Charles VII (1/)]

【You have gained 6200 million experience points.】

[Legendary level +2.]

[Apocalypse Continent fame +200. ]

[You have achieved the Diamond Milestone: The Fall of the King.]

Congratulations! You have accomplished a personal achievement!

[You received a random reward*1, do you want to claim it? ]

And almost at the same time, all players, including Zhou Ning himself, saw the system prompt at the same time:

Due to Wayne Stewell's personal actions, the Kingdom of Bryston has been declared destroyed. All Bryston players have their faction reputation temporarily reset to zero and will suffer a 10% reduction in experience gain for 72 hours. This faction's reputation will be inherited by the next faction.

...This... At least a third of the players present were from the Kingdom of Blaxton. Looking at the system prompt, they were momentarily bewildered. Was this going to be such a big deal? You know, the Kingdom of Blaxton was the most powerful nation on the continent when Apocalypse launched. Fortunately, this punishment wasn't particularly severe.

Zhou Ning couldn't help but be slightly startled. Perhaps this was the power of being a game protagonist; every move could cause tsunamis of change in the game. He temporarily skipped the mission rewards and checked the prompts.

The Fall of the King is a collection-type milestone that does not provide any attributes. It will only provide a hidden task or attribute bonus after collecting all related milestones.

This time I also got a new personal glorious deed

[Glorious Deed (Personal): Destroying the Kingdom of Braxton - You played a crucial role in the fall of the Kingdom of Braxton. You indirectly killed Charles VII, effortlessly dispatched Charles I, lowered the Braxton flag, and personally destroyed the Darkland Fortress, sounding the death knell for the Kingdom of Braxton. This is a legendary deed, and your astonishing deeds will be sung throughout the Apocalypse World!]

As mentioned before, Glorious Deeds have a wider reach than Legendary Deeds, providing greater visibility, larger quest rewards, and a higher chance of quest triggering. They also significantly impact NPCs' initial attitudes towards you, making it possible to gain acquaintance with them. For this reason alone, this quest is worthwhile.

Under everyone's admiring gaze, Zhou Ning walked through the crowd and headed towards the portal.

At this time, Meredith and Gallup III came over and came to Zhou Ning's side. The latter showed an apologetic look on his face and apologized to Zhou Ning and Dolent:

"I was delayed on the way due to something. I heard Meredith tell me what happened before, and I'm very sorry about that. The Church of the God of War will show its sincerity next. What's the current situation?"

"We are about to enter the fourth level of dream." Stuart Crow briefly said it, and Zhou Ning's behavior was very crucial. It can almost be said that he turned the tide with his own strength.

Hearing this, Gallup III's eyes looking at Zhou Ning suddenly changed, becoming more and more incredible.

"He" already knew Wayne Stewell was strong after their previous collaboration, but he hadn't expected him to be this strong. From what he'd described, he was definitely a quasi-god-level warrior.

Hearing Gallup III's thanks, Zhou Ning shook his head indifferently, then followed a few people through the portal back to the third dream.

By this time, the collapse of the third dream had reached its most intense stage. Meteorites, blazing with green flames, continued to fall from the sky. The air felt as if it had been splattered with blood, a mixture of crimson and green. The entire dream was empty and lifeless.

All the lives here have been sacrificed to the goddess of life.

The double portals quietly disappeared in the air. Because this dream was too huge and too stable, it still had about 1 to 2 minutes before it completely collapsed. Taking advantage of this time, Zhou Ning chose to check the rewards of the two previous tasks.

First was the unknown reward from Leonardo’s personal quest line, and Zhou Ning chose to claim it directly.
