1 – Agent Of Doom
A dark small room was illuminated by the weak radiance emitted from a computer.
A shadow stood amidst the darkness; all of a sudden, a hand clicked the mouse and the radiance from the computer illuminated his face.
Scarlet pupils, shark-like fangs revealed by the slightly opened corners of the mouth, pitch-black hair, appearance of 20 odd years, and pale skin were reminiscent of a Vampire.
The owner of this room was named Lu Qiu F. Akart; this strange name wasn’t given to him by his parents.
“Slightly hungry.” He ground his teeth between his parted lips, issuing piercing sounds.
Because the owner of this room was a Vampire … who was surviving in the 22nd century.
“Sure enough, this world …” Lu Qiu clicked on the constantly emerging dismal messages about the world in the computer’s interface, ‘nuclear weapons’ ‘environmental destruction’ ‘racial discrimination’ ‘wars’ and … ‘massacre’.
“Might as well be destroyed!”
As the last Vampire, Lu Qiu was always ostracized in the human world. He always had to rack his brain to hide his identity, so that he wouldn’t be nailed on the cross and incinerated into cinders.
That’s how his younger sister was killed by a human mob.
Yells like <kill that monster> were naturally used to deprave Lu Qiu’s relatives of their lives.
Flames, blood and a young girl’s mournful cries; no one showed any mercy to a monster.
His younger sister had never harmed a human; nevertheless, that mob pinned the title of ‘monster’ on her and ruthlessly burned her to death! Humans had never accepted the unknown.
Ever since he witnessed that scene, Lu Qiu had an undisguised hate towards humanity.
Lu Qiu wanted to take revenge. But as a low-level Vampire, he didn’t had any power in this world which had already been polluted by the human industry.
Humans were already rulers of this world, and Lu Qiu had no power to resist them.
That is, until today …
<Do you want to … destroy this world?>
A window with this title had popped up on Lu Qiu’s computer.
Destroy … this world?
<Do you want to destroy this filthy world? I can grant you the power to do that.>
A seductive message full of malice.
Instinctively, Lu Qiu’s throat chocked a bit with emotion,his shark like teeth appeared;it had been a long time since he had consumed fresh blood.
Is it possible? To destroy the world … hey, it isn’t April fools’ day.
Hold on, is this not what I want?
Lu Qiu’s hand moved, and the mouse paused on the pop-up button ‘OK’.
But … then … nothing happened.
<ins class="adsbygoogle"><ins><ins></ins></ins></ins>
Is it really April fools’ day? Lu Qiu massaged his forehead, and then glanced at the time; it was approximately 8 o’clock in the evening.
This way I’ll starve …
In the next moment the hunger was quenched! Lu Qiu’s pupils suddenly turned scarlet; it was the sign of recovery for those of the Vampire lineage!
What happened? The originally puny body, to Lu Qiu’s amazement, suddenly appeared to be unimaginably powerful.
<Welcome, you’re the first user of the World Destruction Game.>
World Destruction Game? Lu Qiu held his forehead, an odd prompting voice suddenly emerged in his mind.
<Identifying the Host’s power>
<Race: low-level Vampire, low-level nocturnal species, lineage can undertake enhancement.>
<General physical constitution value: 2, can be promoted to 3 after the preliminary enhancement of the System.>
<Dark side index exceeds 107, which is three times that of an average person. Preliminary analysis: possesses destructive tendencies. Has the qualifications required to become a world destroyer.>
A series of suggestions appeared in Lu Qiu’s mind. Lu Qiu somewhat vacantly retreated behind a small table and lied down on the narrow bed.Support the author by searching for the original publication of this novel.
“Who … are … you?” Fear regarding the unknown is not only an unrelenting trait of humans, Vampires also have it.
<I’m the System of the World Destruction Game, the Host may obtain my assistance in order to participate in this game.>
“World Destruction … Game?
What does the World Destruction Game mean?
Just as Lu Qiu’s had had recovered his frame of mind, he suddenly covered his face, and a soft laugh arose as he couldn’t bear it anymore.
Interesting … the feeling of happiness was so sudden that I couldn’t manage to react!
“Then! World Destruction System, what is your ability?” In the darkness, Lu Qiu’s dark pupils emitted scarlet radiances, “I won’t be able to stay in my body?”
<The power to bring about disasters in this world will be granted and strengthened according to the current degree of destruction of the Host’s world; collect human despair to enhance abilities.>
<The current preliminary judgment of this world is of a low-level human civilization; the degree of destruction has already reached 30%.>
<ins class="adsbygoogle"><ins><ins></ins></ins></ins>
The degree of destruction has already reached 30%? This is humanity’s own doing.
<The Host acts as an intermediate-beginner cause. Currently, the System can provide the Host with two methods of assistance to complete the destruction of this world, and then enter the next world.>
“That … is … to say, it doesn’t end with the destruction of this world?”
<After the Host becomes powerful, the Host needs to keep following the game’s rules; starting with the destruction of a low-level plane right until the destruction of a high-level plane.>
Just like Satan prior to the Armageddon, ah.
Its an interesting game, ah.
This game … is unexpectedly super amusing.
“Then tell me, what assistance can you provide me with to destroy this human world?”
This is a crucial point. This world had already been occupied by humans, and everything in it belongs to them; they make the rules and set the order.
To shatter the human rule spread across this world was no easy feat.
<The Host currently has 1,000 Despair Points which can redeem a vial of a highly infectious ‘biochemical virus’. When infected, humans will change into corpses which only know hunger, before incessantly killing other humans and turning them alike.>
Isn’t that a Zombie apocalypse? Sounds quite good. The monster figurines in Lu Qiu’s room revealed his interests.
Perhaps because there was no one other like him and he was feeling lonely, but Lu Qiu had a great interest in monsters, and was also fond of Zombies.
And in movies, it was quite the common trope for the human civilization to be destroyed by a Zombie virus.
But Lu Qiu wasn’t impetuous, and kept listening to the suggestions of the System.
<The second method is to spend all the Despair Points, and tear open a connection to a neighboring Zerg plane. The Zerg is an colony of aggressive giant insects. But with the Host’s current ability, when tearing open a connection to a neighboring Zerg plane will only release the most inferior Worker Insects into this world.>
Zerg? As a Vampire, Lu Qiu was unable to go out, so he dwelt in his home all day long, and was naturally clear on the terror of this race.
Although it would feel exceptionally good to have humans experience despair from insects enacting their revenge on humans who had been trampling on them as they wished.
But if it’s only Worker Insects; Lu Qiu wasn’t in the mood for a slow development!
Lu Qiu wanted to see humans despair as soon as possible.
Therefore, with regards to Lu Qiu, the best method of development was the one which involved Zombies.
What was not mentioned was the fact that there was a large amount of humans all over the world …a method ofquick chain infection was the fastest one in order to let the social order crumble.
“System … give me a vial containing the virus.” Lu Qiu’s eyes emitted a strange radiance: “This world … it’s time to cleanse it.”
<Since it is the first time that the Host redeems goods, the price will be reduced to one tenth. Therefore, 100 Despair Points can redeem a vial of the most basic ‘t-Virus’; the infected humans will turn into ordinary walking corpses. 1,000 Despair Points can redeem a vial of the advanced ‘Blacklight Virus’; after death, the infected humans will evolve into stronger life forms.>
In other words, the original price was 1,000 and 10,000 points respectively, seems quite expensive.
But what’s the difference between an evolved Zombie and a not evolved Zombie?
The t-Virus originated from the famous movie Resident Evil … the Zombies infected by this virus had a low evolution ability. Only after being stimulated through special methods, could they evolve into strongerZombies; such as Licker, Tyrant and so on …
The Blacklight Virus originated from the game Prototype, it was also a virus which could turn people into Zombies. But the life forms infection with the Blacklight Virus were more destructive and aggressive than those infected with the t-Virus! They were stronger and evolved faster!
The viral organism which was infected with the Blacklight Virus, Mother, and was killed by Prototype’s MC Alex Mercer, was an immortal being.
This human world should not be trifled with. As a Vampire, Lu Qiu was clear about it. They not only had firearms but also had ‘Exorcists’ and ‘Espers’ specialized in dealing with monsters such as Lu Qiu.
They were the reason why Lu Qiu had to hide in this small room, not daring to go out.
After pondering for a moment, Lu Qiu chose to stake it all, and redeem all of his Despair Points for a vial of the advanced Blacklight Virus.
An ice-cold metallic container with a swaying red liquid.
Lu Qiu felt its pressure while tightly holding the container in his grip.
This is the capital of my vengeance!
Lu Qiu didn’t rushed out to release the virus, but instead kept studying the System.
“Despair Points, what is it about? What are their benefits?”
<The power absorbed from life forms which fall into despair and die is the foundation for the Host to destroy this world. Also,the System will issue missions so that the Host can obtain additional Despair Points. The Despair Points can strengthen the Host’s body, promote the Hosts abilities, and redeem goodsnecessary for the destruction of the world; the majority of redeemable goods have origin in the Host’s fantasy.>
The despair that follows after a human’s death?
In order to understand humanity, Lu Qiu wouldn’t ignore their fantasy products; such as Hellsing, Resident Evil, Saya no Uta, Elfen Lied and other works of the horror genre. He had also touched upon some anime, games and movies from other genres. In short, Lu Qiu had sufficient fantasy to destroy this world.
It would also allow one to evolve? And could even turn one into a Vampire Ancestor! Reaching Cain’s level.<sup>1</sup>
Hah … Lu Qiu once more covered his mouth; the corner of his lips were cracking into a bigger and bigger arc.
Not good, ah … i’m getting excited …
Going on like this is quite bad, ah …
”I don’t know who created this System …“ Lu Qiu’s scarlet pupils were gradually changed into best-like vertical pupils: “But if I ever meet the creator, I really would like to become friends with him, ah! So, let’s provide humanity with despair.”
Lu Qiu got up from the bed, pushed open the door, and stepped into the ice-cold night.
