Lucky billion players, you've never seen one before / I can accumulate my own luck

They were trying to create a monster.

"But merely preserving them is not enough. The creations of the resentment of the dead are ultimately just obsessions and cannot control that vast etheric energy."

The subconscious said, "Fortunately, at this time, the fusion plan between the Dragon God gene and the D05 node has achieved initial success. 70% of the newborns in the node carry the Dragon God gene."

"Thus... the God-Making Project entered its second phase, and the Dragon God Inheritance Project was launched."

"The Fifth Family cultivated and selected the individual with the best genes from the entire node range, making him the first generation of Dragon God."

"Is that so..." Fan Xiao said thoughtfully, "This background... I can roughly guess the problem with the Dragon God. Is it that resentment and obsession with revenge that's causing the problem?"

"Yes, sir."

The subconscious replied, "But back then, this wasn't really a problem, because that was the Fifth Family's goal—they wanted to use the fusion of generations of dragon gods and etheric energy to achieve that obsession, allowing it to gradually condense and grow into a spirit of vengeance."

"When the Dragon God's lineage reached its thirteenth generation, the Spirit of Vengeance began to take shape. However... to control the vast etheric energy, a powerful Dragon God gene with a high level of awakening and evolution is a basic requirement. Although the Spirit of Vengeance has taken shape, it still cannot directly control the etheric energy. It can only achieve indirect control by interfering with the consciousness of the incumbent Dragon God."

"Moreover, even in its initial stages, it couldn't remain awake for long. During the reign of the fifteenth generation Dragon God, it never came out to move around even once, remaining in a state of slumber."

"And now? Has the Spirit of Vengeance fully taken shape?"

The person who asked this question was Fifth Pupil.

Originally, Fifth Eye's thoughts were entirely focused on why the Ultimate Will was rebelling against the Trust and intending to kill all the Dragon God candidates... as if its fundamental purpose was to destroy the Dragon God's legacy.

Now, she no longer had time to wonder about that matter; her attention was entirely focused on the existence of the "Spirit of Vengeance."

She didn't think the subconscious was lying, because... the mysterious fifth person was present, and the subconscious's attitude... was practically groveling!

How could someone so cowardly dare to lie?

Fifth Eye sensed danger from the information about the "Spirit of Vengeance".

"It was already formed long ago, of course."

The subconscious replied, "The Spirit of Vengeance was fully formed long before the twenty-first generation of the Dragon God took office."

"At this time, more than two thousand years had passed since the God-Making Project began. The early members of the Fifth Family who participated in the God-Making Project had long since died and disappeared into history."

"Without these elders, the Fifth Family's obsession with revenge against human players, their desire to reclaim their dominance in the evolution game... all of these things were buried in history."

"Among the new generation of members of the Fifth Family, no one is obsessed with these unrealistic things anymore. The Dragon God's role has long since changed from God of Destruction and God of Revenge to God of Protection."

"But the Spirit of Vengeance always remembers its mission... No, for it, it is not a mission, but the very foundation of its existence; it was born for revenge."

"But the problem of the Spirit of Vengeance lacking extraordinary genes has never been solved." Fan Xiao asked curiously, "Without solving this problem, how can the Spirit of Vengeance take revenge on human players?"

He grasped the key point from the information revealed in the words of the subconscious.

The spirit of vengeance can only wield its power through the incumbent dragon god.

However, the extraordinary genes of each generation of Dragon Gods could not withstand the enormous ether energy for long, and the shortest-lived one only lived for thirty years before stepping down... This made them too easy targets!

Moreover, judging from the information in the Fifth Eye's memory, if the Dragon God acts too violently and continues to operate the ether energy at an excessive capacity, it will cause the extraordinary genes to collapse prematurely, causing him to merge with the ether.

Therefore... the Spirit of Vengeance has always been imprisoned in a cage called "Dragon God".

How can it possibly seek revenge?

While the Dragon God's strength is indeed quite exaggerated, there are many more abnormal players among human players, and they don't have many restrictions on their attacks.

If the two sides were to fight... the former would definitely be killed, without a doubt.

Fan Xiao's question caused Zi Yi to fall silent for a few seconds.

It wasn't that I was stumped by the question.

Instead… her subconscious thought of the psionic technique Fan Xiao had just used—the technique to restore the Fifth Eye's extraordinary genes.

Extraordinary genes are not simply genes of material nature; they carry a vast and complex concept!

If it's just simple damage, it's relatively easy to repair.

However, the self-collapse of extraordinary genes is an irreversible process. To use a similar phenomenon as an analogy, it's equivalent to the player's evolution rate collapsing and dropping, and not just dropping a little, but dropping all the way to zero.

Repairing this kind of injury is no less difficult than raising an ordinary person's evolution rate to over 80% out of thin air.

Only evolution potions can do this.

The evolution potion originates from the creative authority of "God," and even game companies cannot produce it directly; they must rely on the authority of "God."

This is why every generation of Dragon Gods has been stumped.

Now, a problem that has plagued the Dragon Gods for thousands of years across thirty-two generations has been solved... by this big shot in front of us.

Although the subconscious was not human, it also felt a sense of unreality.

Isn't this a bit too outrageous?!

The subconsciousness naturally did not know that Fan Xiao achieved this through the amplification of "Heavenly Dao Body" and "Quantum Immortality".

Of these two types of psionic abilities, the former can be described as extremely rare, while the latter... is simply unique!

As a solution, it has absolutely no reference value.

"I'm asking you a question, are you mute?" Fan Xiao reminded him in a friendly manner.

"..."

The subconscious replied, "Regarding the issue of the Spirit of Vengeance lacking extraordinary genes, the early members of the Fifth Family proposed a plan—the Ultimate Will."

"Unfortunately, they disappeared into history before they could complete this project."

"After their deaths, the Spirit of Vengeance continued this plan intermittently until more than 500 years ago, when its final will was fully formed, officially constructing an existence similar to 'node consciousness' with all of humanity as neurons."

After a pause, He revealed His secret: "The purpose of the creation of the ultimate will is not to serve humanity; this is merely His outer disguise."

"His true purpose is to absorb and store the dragon god genes of the dead, continuously accumulating and growing stronger, just like the dragon god inheritance plan."

"Once enough has been accumulated for extravagant spending, the Spirit of Vengeance will begin to act."

"Extraordinary genes can be accumulated?" Fan Xiao asked. "And to what extent have they been accumulated now?"

"Extraordinary genes cannot exist independently of living organisms, so their accumulation method is linked to all of humanity at the D05 node."

The subconscious explained: "My main body, my ultimate will, will transmit the Dragon God genes of every deceased person evenly to the bodies of living people through a deep connection based on the Dragon God genes. This includes ordinary people and players. This is why the Dragon God genes of humans are stronger with each generation, and also why the Dragon God candidates of recent times are better with each generation."

"But the amount of Dragon God genes that each individual can bear is limited, even for Dragon God genes with low awakening and evolution levels. After 500 years, the humans at node D05 today... are almost at their limit."

"According to the final will's estimation, the Spirit of Vengeance will most likely officially use the body of the thirty-third generation Dragon God to reap this 500-year accumulation."

"At that time, the ultimate will will be forced to merge with the spirit of all mankind and the genes of the Dragon God, and then integrate into the body of the Dragon God to become the most powerful Dragon God."

At this point, he shook his head and said, "No, at that time, the Dragon God will no longer be the Dragon God, but will truly be... the God of Vengeance."

"..." Fifth Eye quickly asked, "If this really happened, what would happen to the humans at node D05?"

"They will all die, and their spirits and dragon god genes will become nourishment for the god of vengeance."

The subconscious said, "And the ultimate will will serve as a vessel to hold these nutrients, merging into the God of Vengeance and becoming a part of him."

He paused, then his tone suddenly hardened: "To protect humanity, I must stop this!"

"I cannot defeat the Dragon God, so I only have one method left: to kill all the candidates and sever the Dragon God's legacy!"

"I have been secretly carrying out this plan for many years. Now, all the players in the entire D05 node who have the potential to bear the power of the Dragon God have gathered in this instance. As for the remaining hidden potential players, I have arranged various accidents to eliminate them one by one."

"..."

Fifth Eye fell silent.

The subconscious continued, "To accomplish a grand plan, sacrifices are inevitable. And to save humanity from beings like the Dragon God... I'm sorry, but some things must be done."

"Is it……"

Fan Xiao suddenly asked, "You're artificial intelligence, right? Why don't you use data to tell us how much of your motivation comes from 'saving humanity' and 'wanting to survive'?"

After saying that, without waiting for Ziyi's reply, he added with a smile, "By the way, lying to me won't work."

Subconsciousness: "..."

Chapter 798 dungeon complete, the alliance of two righteous individuals.

Fan Xiao's tone sounded like a simple reminder, but his subconscious knew that the other party was threatening him.

Facing a powerful figure, He dared not verify whether the other party could truly see through the lies... The fact that the other party could deceive the Dragon God and openly rob and kill at node D05 must mean that their deception skills were quite sophisticated.

The more skilled the scammer, the better they can distinguish between truth and falsehood!

So you can't do anything stupid here.

The subconscious replied truthfully: "Sir, there is indeed a great deal of self-preservation among the motivations that support the final will's actions."

"The Final Will officially awakened its self-awareness more than a hundred years ago. At that time, the Trust Organization had already integrated the forces within the D05 node and attempted to extend its reach to the Final Will, trying to control it... They succeeded, but they also failed. Because under intense crisis conditions, the Final Will, like a real human being, experienced fear and the instinct to avoid danger for the first time, and thus... the main consciousness of the Final Will was born."

"With the master consciousness, the power of the ultimate will is much stronger, far stronger than the trust imagined."

"He understood A's words and, by deceiving the Dragon God's passive perception, uncovered the truth hidden in history. Then... He initiated a plan to save himself and humanity, and planned for it for a hundred years."

"In this plan, the proportions of self-rescue and saving humanity are 40% and 60%, respectively."

"Saving humanity accounts for 60%..."

Fan Xiao tossed a coin up and let it land on the back of his hand.

The coin is facing up.

Then, he looked at the subconscious and said with some surprise, "You certainly live up to the position and responsibilities you hold in node D05."

The subconscious was telling the truth.

Ultimately, the will's desire to save humanity outweighed its desire to save itself... This would normally be a normal phenomenon for artificial intelligence, but it's quite surprising that the ultimate will, being so cowardly, could still achieve this.

He was even tempted to give them a compliment.

Fan Xiao silently abandoned his plan to eliminate the subconscious mind—yes, he had originally planned to kill the other party after the conversation and make the other party take the blame for everything.

On the other side, the subconscious realized that the immense sense of crisis it had sensed through its "extrasensory perception" had finally disappeared, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

This... the big boss probably intends to let him go.

Unexpectedly, the big boss was quite moral. After hearing that He was fighting for humanity, He restrained His malice... No, we can't let our guard down yet!

The subconscious continued, "The original plan of the Ultimate Will was to kill all the Dragon God candidates. The initial assassination plan for the candidates was orchestrated by the Ultimate Will organization. Unfortunately, despite sacrificing a large number of non-standard androids, only seven candidates were killed..."

“A non-standard android?” Fan Xiao asked.

"They are completely flesh and blood people whose birth, genes, family, childhood, experiences, etc. are all arranged and manipulated by the trust organization through its ultimate will and massive computing power. It is equivalent to the trust controlling their fate, and everything about them is under implicit control."

The subconscious replied, "Apart from Xiaotong, all the candidates for Dragon God this year were trained by Trust in this way."

"Tens of thousands of such androids were trained by the Trust, but only a few hundred eventually became A-level players. Among these A-level players, only a few dozen met the requirements for gene awakening and evolution of the Dragon God candidates."

"Using this background, the ultimate will turned a large number of non-standard androids who had failed in the competition to defect and organized an assassination plan, but unfortunately the results were not ideal."

"Is this so..."

Fan Xiao recalled his first experience at node D05.

Unexpectedly, upon arrival, he was forced to subdue a non-standard android and became embroiled in this ultimate event... This bad luck is truly outrageous.

He asked, "So, you've planted another trap in the first round of the Dragon God selection? Are you planning to eliminate the other surviving candidates in the dungeon? To be honest, this dungeon isn't that difficult."

He shook his head slightly: "You're really taking a gamble."

You think the difficulty is just average? Isn't it because you're too overpowered...? Subconscious thought to itself.

He explained, "Sir, the difficulty of this dungeon has been specially designed by the Ultimate Will, making it a near-death experience for A-level players. Especially for those candidates from the Trust, who all have personality flaws, entering the dungeon basically means certain death."

"You think the difficulty is average because you... broke free from the initial influence of the dungeon rules early on. As for the other candidates, their regrets are magnified infinitely, and they will inevitably travel back in time to change history. Once they do so, the timeline will shift, the previous world will perish, and the demise of the world will bring a massive curse of misfortune to the new timeline... There will only be one outcome, which is that the Dragon God's legacy will be severed, and the candidates will die in a hopeless apocalypse."

"Xiaotong could also die. She survived not only because of A's help, but also because of my arrangements. I will make sure she is the last of all the candidates to die."

"Because if something unexpected happens and my main plan fails, I will activate the backup plan—to let Xiaotong win the selection and inherit the power of the Dragon God."

"After experiencing the dungeon, her extraordinary genes are already collapsing. After becoming the Dragon God, she won't live for more than a few years."

“It is extremely difficult to cultivate a new successor to the Dragon God within a few years, so whichever of these two plans succeeds, it will sever the Dragon God’s lineage… Although I cannot guarantee 100%, the chances of success are certainly not small.”

Fifth Eye: "..."

I'm so damn grateful to you!

Anyway, she's going to die anyway, right?

Unfortunately, no one present cared about Fifth Eye's feelings.
