Players are coming, fortunately I have a time travel simulator

"Echoes of Doom?"

Seeing the name of the new version, Zhou Ning couldn't help but frown slightly. At this moment, he remembered the information he had glimpsed from the road of destiny under everyone's feet when he was fighting with the Goddess of Life Elf.

In November 1457, everyone's destiny will reach its end, which is the so-called singularity of destiny.

According to the myth of the Life Elf Woman, at the singularity of fate he observed the shining of the stars and the seemingly endless madness.

Stars? Madness?

For some reason, Zhou Ning suddenly got an inspiration in his mind. It was a passage he had read in his previous life:

"Gazing at the stars, I lose myself; the stars return to their positions, the old days are gone; the old days are gone, the end is near; the seal is broken, and I have awakened; the dream echoes, and mankind is frightened; the ancient gods were there, and the old days are here; when they return, darkness invades."

This... is very vivid!

At this moment, Zhou Ning's heartbeat suddenly quickened. He felt a long-lost shock.

Could this fateful singularity from 1457 be the apocalypse referred to in the game's title? Thinking about it this way, Apocalypse World is truly plagued by disasters, with the apocalypse constantly approaching!

Then I thought back to the bronze gates I'd seen several times, imprisoning the Elven Goddess of Life and harboring a vast amount of pollution. Harrison Rivers spoke of a certain unsightly being from the starry sky, honored as the "Goddess of Darkness and Desolation," the "Born of Myriad Offspring." Could it be that the Elven Goddess, disguised as the Moon Goddess, was also corrupted by the Outer Gods of the stars while exploring the astral realm? Even the First and Second Wars of the Gods are connected to this? This also perfectly points to the saying, "Gazing at the stars, one loses oneself."

There is also a fifth level of dreams, which is the silver moon surface extremely close to the ground in the dream of the Goddess of Life herself; the golden eyes that whisper in the ears of every high-level being all the time and create pollution; the mysterious island that is suspected to contain a huge secret, and is also the hometown of Xiao Poshu.

Coincidentally, Zhou Ning's own ceremony of becoming an angel and the subsequent ceremony of becoming a god also pointed to that island.

All aspects seemed to be connected together. Fate connected them together in a disordered way and led Zhou Ning to the destination he wanted to reach.

This is the power of fate! Zhou Ning couldn't help but sigh slightly. At this moment, a strong sense of fate emerged in his heart.

If one doesn't want to be completely controlled by fate, the best way is to become a god, or to completely control one's fate. And his current situation is very close to both!

Following are several update notices about the new version 3.0.

1. The 3.0 pre-launch period is expected to last for one month, during which the current total level cap will remain in place. The level cap will be increased to level 95. The new level cap and new class content will be lifted after the official release of version 3.0. During this period, players will receive a 50% bonus to experience points, and new players will have a catch-up mechanism to help them level up faster. After the update is complete, players will be able to attempt to achieve Demigodhood. The first player to achieve Demigodhood will receive the corresponding milestone.

[2. During this period, players crossing realms will no longer be restricted by reputation, and more hidden quests, new professional mentors, etc. will be gradually opened.]

[3. The second Apocalypse Professional League will begin after the new version is released. The previous champion will be directly invited, and the remaining players/teams will participate in a week-long audition. The registration channel will officially open on the eve of the new version.]

4. A new, ultra-large raid, "Shadow of Death," will officially open after maintenance is complete. This raid features dynamic levels and can accommodate up to 400 players. It features 21 bosses and one hidden boss ready for players to challenge, each with unique loot. Note: This raid is extremely difficult, so please be fully prepared before taking on this challenge.

[5. After version 3.0 is launched, nationality conversion and religious conversion will be supported. Players can change their nationality and religion according to their own preferences.]

Looking at these update records, Zhou Ning couldn't help but be slightly stunned:

The plot of Apocalypse is incredibly broken. Version 3.0 only reaches level 80, and there's no 50% experience bonus. If I remember correctly, the content of Version 3.0 was "Wolf Shadows on a Moonlit Night." After challenging the Ice Goddess and the Elemental Plane in "Elemental Disaster," the map shifted to the southern jungles of the Kingdom of Sifarik, ultimately leading to the local Wolf Cult's plot to revive the "World-Destroying Wolf" Gleipnir.

Now the World-Destroying Wolf has long been killed, the plot has collapsed to the point where even the grandma can't recognize it. He directly led the players to defeat the BOSS in the later stage of the game, approaching the old life elf goddess, causing the players' levels to completely fail to keep up with the version. Therefore, they can only use the old tricks and use the pre-version to transition, and then open the new version after the players have grown up a little.

Zhou Ning couldn't help but shook his head. His existence was really torturing the computer's ability to write new plots and maintain the balance of the game all the time.

At this time, as the game maintenance countdown continued, players were discussing the plot and excitedly preparing to log off.

This also heralds the end of the entire second version of the "Apocalypse" game.

But just before the players chose to log off, they all saw a series of summary texts burning with blazing flames, which looked very epic:

On July 1453, 7, the third religious war in the history of Apocalypse came to a close. Wayne Stewell, Son of the Planes, led the Church of the Starry Sky, joining forces with the Church of the Ascetic and the Church of the God of War to achieve a glorious victory against the Artisans and Alchemists, the Retreat, the Royal Family of Bryston, the Church of the Goddess of Life, and the Church of the Sea God. As participants, you too will be remembered in history.

In this war, a total of more than 4700 extraordinary people died on both sides, including 43 demigods and 7 angels, including the Elf Goddess, the Goddess of Life, the God of Craftsmen and Alchemy, and the God of the Sea. Four righteous gods died in this battle.

Due to the feedback from the dream, Dakelan was destroyed again, and the total number of Dakelan residents died was nearly 110,000.

The Church of the Goddess of Life has lost all of its parishes in the former Kingdom of Bryston. Its true deity has fallen, and it has become a secret sect. The Kingdom of Bryston has been declared destroyed. A new kingdom is about to be established on its ruins!

Congratulations, you have achieved the milestone: Historical Witness!

…………

Seeing the Chosen Ones disappear with satisfied expressions on their faces, the professionals from the three major churches present were already accustomed to their elusive behavior and did not show any abnormality. Only Stuart Crow and Victor Bennett, along with the Ascetic Church priests and the Sun Guardians, cleaned up the battlefield and comforted the surrounding people.

Zhou Ning's eyes flickered slightly, and he saw Dolent walking towards him.

The Angel King's attitude towards Zhou Ning had become extremely respectful. He glanced at Zhou Ning and Gallup III and said:

"Your Majesty, Stowell, Gallop, let's arrange a time to discuss the division of interests after the war. The Ascetic Church will not forget its promise. We will allow the War God Church and the Starry Sky Church to re-enter the Kingdom of Blyston to preach and establish parishes."

"I'm always available." Zhou Ning nodded slightly.

"Then I'll come in two days." Gallup III said solemnly. Then he looked at Zhou Ning:

"Your Majesty, the Church of the God of War will not forget its promise. The church's treasure house is always open to you. I will have Smith Hall contact you."
