Chapter Extra (Free 6000) Defying Destiny!

"I'm late, Eve."

For some reason, Alan was tearful. He walked forward slowly, opening his arms, not caring that the mummy was extremely old and had countless wrinkles on its face. "Please forgive me... I didn't keep my promise, but I'm back—"

"Alan..."

Even Eve, who had miraculously transformed herself into a mummy, opened her eyes and looked at the young man before her. His face was exactly the same, as if it had never changed. She couldn't help but smile, but then returned to sadness.

"But you are not him." The princess, who had waited for thousands of years, said sadly, "The Elan I loved will never come back. I should have known it long ago, I should have accepted it."

"But I still don't want to believe... you are not him. I was wrong, I shouldn't have asked for so much."

The young student was naturally dumbfounded and didn't know how to respond. Although there was boundless throbbing in his heart, it wasn't his own emotion, as if another person in his soul was crying.

The shriveled mummy stood up, walked down the throne, stretched out her hand, and smiled as she stroked the student's face, "But I still heard your apology... it's not late, my love, I've waited, so it's never too late."

In the resounding Song of Eternity, Eve's body dissipated in the sudden wind. The student was shocked to see the old mummy before him transform into a beautiful woman with picturesque eyebrows. She smiled as she turned into dust and returned to the underworld.

The Overture of the Song of Eternity continued to play, the movie screen went black, and the filming crew list began to roll.

"What the hell?"

Lin Yi, who was moved to tears, suddenly heard someone speak extremely rudely, with doubt and anger. "That is the song born from the Song of Creation, the 'Overture' of the Four Pillars—at least one of those gods is a Hedao, and at least the peak of the Heavenly Emperor. Who needs mortals to reclaim the land? Who cares about the laws of heaven and earth!"

"Is it that difficult to revive a person? Not to mention anything else, there was no need to fight in the first place, right? Why did so many people die in the war between the two countries? Every single one of these gods is fueling the fire, they should all be dragged out for judgment!"

Before the others in the cinema could question in confusion, the voices of a brother and sister rang out in consolation.

The male voice comforted, "Hey, A Zhou, art is not reality. If every movie and game were like what you said, with gods being so omnipotent, where would all the stories come from... just like you, aren't you also someone who can't do everything?"

The female voice also explained, "Yeah, yeah, Brother Zhou, don't be angry. Not all gods have brains. We're knowledgeable, but that doesn't mean they understand."

"I only didn't say that those gods all deserve to die because I know that! It's understandable for the primitive era to be a bit bloody, but this setting later on is just bullshit!"

The voice, full of anger, was clear and bright, presumably belonging to a perpetually enthusiastic young man. At this time, his tone was filled with doubt, "This story is wrong from the setting... Alan... isn't that the applicant for the Creation Chapter mission... but isn't Eve his daughter?"

Although the voice was a bit noisy, for some reason, not many people questioned it. Lin Yi looked around the hall and found that, other than himself, who was sitting relatively close, no one else could hear his words.

Before Lin Yi could wonder, Hai Qi, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but say, "Huh? You know the plot of the third movement, 'Agitato'?"

"Oh?" The voice seemed to turn its head, somewhat surprised, "The third movement, 'Agitato'?"

"Yes!" Hai Qi was also a cheerful and enthusiastic person, so he explained, "Alan and Eve are the common protagonists of the Creation Grand Chapter's four movements. Their story reincarnates countless times, spanning four great eras. What we just saw was the first movement, 'Overture', where they were lovers, and then there's the second movement, 'Resonance', where they are strangers, the third movement, 'Agitato', where they are father and daughter, and the fourth movement..."

"No, thank you." The voice suddenly seemed thoughtful. He thanked, "I think I understand a bit now. Sure enough, the problem with that world isn't just the male and female protagonists... Let's continue watching the movie."

So the movie continued.

This time, the four movements of the Creation Grand Chapter were broadcasted continuously. After a short intermission, the second movement unfolded.

【Song of Eternity · Resonance】

The First Era ended, and the Second Era began.

Bright gods were born from the raging flames of the God of Fire, and in the shadows of the light illuminating all things, dark gods were born accordingly. The world, filled with endless war, was a place where light and darkness contended, and good and evil fought.

Bright gods blessed all living beings, dark gods cursed all things, the mortal world was full of extraordinary people singing scriptures and hymns to fight against demons and evil creatures. Even a small village had a god-sacrificing ritual.

The name of that ritual was the Evil of This World. One person was used as a human pillar, regarded as the ultimate evil in the world to be despised and rejected. All the sins and terrors in the world were to be borne by this person. In this way, even if there were curses, demons, or evil entities that wanted to approach, they would be absorbed and borne by the Evil of This World.

In this way, the village could enjoy peace and live safely in this war-torn world.

In this generation, a fatherless and motherless baby girl was chosen to be the human pillar. Because she was not a child of a familiar person, the villagers had no scruples about sacrificing her.

The village passed peacefully for more than ten years, until a young man grew up.

From a young age, he had seen this girl, who was the same age as him, as the Evil of This World. He watched her grow up suffering torment and pain. He saw vengeful spirits pour into the girl's chest, and cursed words appear on her skin. From a girl to a young woman, she had always accepted all the torment expressionlessly, as if the perception of all pain did not exist.

But the young man knew the pain. He had once risked touching the girl's cheek, and as a result, he had been seriously ill for a month. Since then, he had not only felt no fear, but also wondered why she could withstand such a huge amount of resentment and hatred, and bear all the suffering with such an expressionless face.

He began to communicate with the girl in secret, teaching her to speak, bringing her flowers from outside the village, and reciting poems that were sung throughout the world for her.

The girl was expressionless at first, but gradually learned words and sounds under the boy's enthusiasm. She was named Eve by the boy, accepted the name, and would smile when she saw flowers.

But this warm daily life did not last long—outside the village, because of a great war, a storm of vengeful spirits was about to sweep across this land. As the village's patron god, and also the gathering place of all evil, the girl was invited out. She was dressed in gorgeous clothes, wearing a jeweled crown, and looked as holy as a goddess under the sunlight. But the young man saw that, during the ritual, the storm of vengeful spirits that roared and swept through the village was absorbed into the girl's body, and the girl, who had always been expressionless and silently endured everything, cried out in pain for the first time, a sob like a small animal.

"How could this be? How could the Evil of This World cry and feel pain?"

The elder angrily questioned everyone. As a human pillar cultivated since childhood, the girl should not feel any pain or torment, because she would not have any concept of pain. She would not laugh, so naturally she would not cry. If she could not feel happiness, then darkness and despair could never be inflicted on her.

The Evil of This World was precisely the gathering of all evil, and also the most sacred and holy god. The ritual of the remote village was a miracle to create a human god.

But the happiness that the boy brought to the girl turned the god back into a human, the nameless god of evil, into a girl named Eve.

The young man was dumbfounded. How could he know that his actions would create such a consequence? He heard the elder's low roar, and knew that the girl was about to be abandoned. They would re-cultivate a child to become the Evil of This World and repeat the girl's fate.

But what followed was anger.

"Who is good and who is evil?"

"What have you made of the gods' teachings on good and evil?!"

He bravely stood up and admitted that it was because of him that the girl was no longer as holy as before, and would feel pain. He rebuked the elder's choice as nothing more than handing over all the pain that should have been borne by themselves to an innocent child. As a leader, they should sing war songs themselves and fight against all ugliness and despair.

Unable to even bear pain, then one could not perceive happiness. The young man waved his scimitar and fought with the angry elders and guards. He took the wooden girl out of the village in the storm, but his abdomen was cut open, and his intestines were about to spill out.

"It's my fault, it's all my fault."

In the wilderness, the dying young man stroked the girl's expressionless face with his blood-stained hand. He murmured to himself, "Just like they arbitrarily inflicted despair on you and made you the Evil of This World, I also arbitrarily gave you freedom and took you away from the village, turning you into a mortal..."

He was in pain and doubted himself, but the young man never regretted it, until he died.

"In any case, you can now choose your own future path."

Watching the young man's body, the girl held his hand, still without any expression.

She did not really understand what happiness was, nor did she understand what was the point of the boy saving her and taking her away from the village. She had been without parents since the beginning, and was a rootless, empty existence. Just as the young man himself said, the other party was just changing her selfishly.

She stood up, the girl turned around, she wanted to return to the village, because only the village was her meaning, the Evil of This World was her name, and also the meaning of her existence, if not for the Evil of This World, she would have nothing.

For her, being abused, hurt, and rejected was normal, being treated well would only make her at a loss.

She did not understand what the young man had done, or what the meaning was, she only regarded it as another new form of torture.

Only by returning to the village could she feel at ease.

But, just as the girl started walking towards the village, she saw flowers blooming in the fields by the side of the road.

Those were the flowers that the young man had picked for her in the past, making her smile.

She suddenly recalled that she did have a name.

"...Eve..."

Whispering to herself, speaking for the first time, repeating her name, the girl who had gone halfway turned her head and looked in the direction of the young man's body.

She turned back, came to the boy's body, and then squatted beside it, waiting quietly.

In the rising sandstorm, the Song of Eternity rang out again, the great sandstorm that swept across the world was about to arrive, and the figures of the young man and girl were about to be swallowed by all destruction, which was the most equal ending, the eternity called death.

This was her choice.

The Song of Eternity·Resonance was played, the movie screen went black, and the filming crew list began to roll.

"This is called art?"

Once again, the familiar voice of the young man rang out. To be honest, Lin Yi, who was lost in thought, was not surprised—rather, as a young boy with extremely limited appreciation ability and a rather childish psychological age, Lin Yi strongly agreed with the voice's roar, "Don't think that just because it's a tragedy it can be art! I can see that this drama is indeed exploring the meaning of life and people's choices, like the previous one was exploring the soul and covenants, memory and existence."

"But those gods are sick, can't they just build the world properly? There are so many demons and monsters? With the technology of the Evil of This World, just let the eternal god bear it, damn it, if it were me, I would do a million times better than these idiots!"

Immediately, several other voices comforted, persuading the young man to calm down, 'Professor, forget it, they're just bad' 'Yeah, minister, there are a thousand and eight hundred plots like this, why are you so angry?'

The voice retorted, "Bullshit, the reason I'm angry is because I know this isn't a simple plot story, it's very likely real..."

Hai Qi and Lin Yi exchanged glances, they smiled and thought it was just a slip of the tongue, but they didn't pay too much attention.

After all, for them, this was just an artistic movie, and all the plots were fictional. Although the tragedy was indeed a bit sad, the movie's beautiful pictures and top-level music could stir people's emotions even with the most dog-blooded plot. This was already worthy of the series' reputation.

In any case, after a short rest, the third movement began.

【Song of Eternity·Agitato】

At this time, in Su Zhou's heart, besides being annoyed, there was also great doubt.

Just as he had said before, unlike Shao Shuangyue, Bai Yingxue and others who had invited him to watch, he knew better than anyone that the story of Alan and Eve was very likely true.

The task he had accepted from Alan of the 'Chapter World' was enough to prove this.

"Even if he got on the Pioneer Space's line and had the power to break the plot, Alan couldn't escape fate."

He sat in his seat, and Tang Yuan handed him a cola. After Su Zhou thanked him, he didn't see Bai Yingxue behind him who also seemed to be planning to do the same thing. At this moment, he was lost in thought, his mind connected to his main body in the void, "The exchanges that Pioneer Space can provide are endless, even if the world is destroyed, it can be easily solved, not to mention anything else, isn't the Creation World like this? As long as there are people like me willing to pay the price, the deficit of the entire infinite universe can be directly filled!"

"Relying on Pioneer Space as a backing, and still unable to break free from fate, it is enough to show that that world has a 'compulsory force' far beyond fate!"

Su Zhou was not someone who didn't watch novels, movies, anime, or TV series. He knew a lot. What kind of suppression force, what kind of deus ex machina, what kind of Heavenly Dao and Grand Dao, which one hadn't he beaten and eaten? The Fate Heavenly Demon of Qingqiu Star was an unfinished 'deus ex machina', wasn't it?

In the world of fate, there are too many forces that force fate to be achieved. Su Zhou had every reason to suspect that the four pillar gods representing 'Overture', 'Resonance', 'Agitato', and 'Finale' in that world were the spokespersons of fate!

It was them that made the world full of so much tragedy!

They all deserved to be reformed!

"But the problem is, why?"

Su Zhou was extremely puzzled. He had to know that if the Creation Grand Chapter really existed, then it was at least a Hedao treasure of the Creator's Ring, an ultimate existence equivalent to the origin of the universe. In other words, it was not difficult for the gods it derived to give birth to a Hedao, just like those Hedaos of the Creation World.

If there was a Hedao, why would they care about the fate of a ball? With a single word, chaos would shatter, time and space would burst, and even the Great Dao would be obliterated!

With a Hedao expert, all the messy tragic backgrounds would be changed into a utopian Datong world. Even if this world was destined to suffer endless cosmic insect invasions and was destined to fight an eternal war, as long as there was no Hedao on the opposite side, the Hedao expert could forcefully turn that universe into insects and turn it into a cosmic beautiful girl and handsome boy, and descend into many worlds to talk about love stories!

Hedao was the sky, it was the cosmic will that surpassed the universe. The lowest Hedao could at least brainwash the universe and influence the universe's operating route. What the hell was the established fate? They could dip it in sauce and swallow it raw!

However, the Hedaos of the Chapter World ignored all of this, which either meant that the Zhuzhou Heaven was about to be dispatched, or that there was indeed some conspiracy behind it, and the Zhuzhou Heaven was about to be dispatched immediately.

In short, they were definitely going to be dispatched!

Alan had already reported the case, if he didn't dispatch, would he still be worthy of being called a policeman?

Just as Su Zhou was thinking silently, the Song of Eternity, the third movement, began.

On the vast land, gods and humans coexisted. Above the towering mountains was the holy mountain of the gods. The gods each protected cities and gave birth to god-children heroes with mortals, weaving many epic legends and heroic stories in the world.

Alan was a wealthy man in Moal City, but he was not married until one day, he picked up a baby girl abandoned by her parents.

Alan regarded the baby girl as his own and named her Eve, which meant 'existence; goddess who bestows life on all things'. He took care of her meticulously, as if he were taking care of a princess.

However, when he took his ten-year-old daughter to the temple to pray for blessings, the temple priest prophesied that he was destined to die at the hands of his daughter, shocking everyone present.

Alan was extremely decisive, he immediately spent a lot of money to silence the priest and other temple servants, but he did not know that his daughter Eve had already heard the prophecy...

Boom!

Crackling!

Suddenly, a series of explosions that seemed like poor contact came from the cinema.

The silver screen and the lights in the hall dimmed, and everything fell into darkness. The story that had just begun came to an abrupt end.

"Huh? What's going on?"

Jin Qiong, who was eating popcorn and looking forward to it, looked around in surprise. She said somewhat confused, "It's already 2026, why is there still a power outage?"

"Shh—"

On the other side, Bai Yingxue whispered, the black-haired phoenix girl looked in Su Zhou's direction, shook her head somewhat suspiciously, and then whispered to Jin Qiong, who looked blank, "Can't you tell..."

At this moment.

Not only the Shanghai Film Festival.

All over the world, in all universes affected by Zhuzhou, and even in all universes affected by Pioneer Space, movies, games, books, legends related to 'Creation Grand Chapter · Song of Eternity' were all closed, blacked out, the words blurred, and the songs that had been forgotten how to sing.

Everything was blurred, no longer clear, and was forgotten for a moment.

Perhaps, in the next moment, it would be remembered.

But now...

"It's okay."

At this moment, Su Zhou, who was squinting his eyes, suddenly laughed. In the darkness, his eyes were bright and glowing.

His expression was originally serious, even a little dignified, but now he suddenly shook his head and sighed, "I just suddenly figured out some things."

He raised his head, his gaze pierced through the cinema and the high sky of the earth, all the way through the universe's time and space, directly reaching his main body in the void.

Su Zhou said lightly, "I just think... it's better not to watch some stories. It can be made better, and then we can watch something happy."

"Because some things, as long as I don't watch them, then they don't exist."

"Naturally, there's no need to talk about fate."

In the cosmic void, in the Zhuzhou Heaven.

The flame humanoid sitting in the cyan-purple divine tree slowly stood up. The Hedao expert's Great Dao main body shook its body, and when it made the heavens and stars shake slightly and stars fell, it transformed into a young human figure.

"Haha."

Su Zhou laughed and opened his eyes.

The eyes, like blazing flames, gazed at the distant end of time and space. He grinned, revealing a dangerous expression, "So that's how it is, the battle with fate, from the moment I knew the 'beginning of the story', and Alan entrusted the task, had already begun."

After saying that, a fragment of virtual shadow floated beside him, the power of the Heavenly God Scale surrounded his body, and the Pioneer Space was also called upon, "I'm leaving, Pioneer Space, if I guessed correctly, the mission can start now, right?"

The Pioneer Space's voice also rang out calmly: [Yes, it's now. Everything is ready, you can leave.]

"It really is like fate."

The young man shook his head slightly, "It's really hard to defend against, I've already acknowledged 'two fates'..."

Taking a deep breath, the young man's god opened his arms to the multiverse, "But so what?"

"This time, I lost slightly."

In the silver halo that pierced through the multiverse, Su Zhou's figure disappeared into the teleportation.

But the sonorous and forceful words were left behind, "But who wins and who loses in the end, is still unknown!"

The brilliance cut through the darkness, just like a flying star piercing through all the dim twilight.

A new story, the overture is played.

The 4000 charge is mainly for full attendance, please forgive me... Today's is a w-word extra, please give me a monthly ticket!

Taking a day off tomorrow to prepare for the new volume of the story!
