CHAPTER 1078: 1076: THE FINAL GATHERING

[Disaster Gathering]

The current situation was almost identical to last time,

except for the absence of the "Second Disaster," everyone was present (currently the Fourth Disaster, Gap, only projected an image of a photographer into the meeting room).

However, the atmosphere on site was completely different from last time.

[Great Annihilation]

This is an indelible nature ingrained within every malicious entity;

it is the fundamental reason for their birth, their purpose for existence, their ultimate mission.

When this moment arrives,

it’s as if the most critical moment in their lives has come, the alarm set deep within their souls ringing with a sound that resonates within.

Every disaster sitting here was unconsciously releasing malice, with apparitions related to their respective malice appearing behind them.

Yi Chen, the representation of the Tenth Disaster, was no exception.

In such an atmosphere, even William couldn’t contain himself, emitting malice related to ’pleasure,’ with a multitude of human-head balloons appearing behind him.

At this moment,

’Ruben’ walked in from the door, not displaying the form William had seen in the basement, but appearing in a normal manner, dressed in a white robe.

Although emanating the aura of the First Disaster, William could instantly recognize him as the ’Fake Leader.’

But for disasters who hadn’t seen the ’Fake Body,’ it was impossible to distinguish in a short time.

William, sitting in his chair, looked at the Fake Leader in front of him, completely identical in shape, aura, and demeanor.

"Even on the eve of the Great Annihilation, creating so many fake bodies suddenly, it seems the old boss is still hiding something. Even though I have signed a contract with him to kill the Manager, there’s still a bit of distrust.

However, that’s just his nature, it doesn’t matter.

As long as his goal is the New Moon, as long as his true body reaches the Sick Focus, the performance can proceed as planned."

"William, aren’t you going to sit down?"

"Understood, Boss!"

William obediently sat back onto his balloon-hovering chair, attempting to make eye contact with Yi Chen beside him, but Yi Chen, with his head tilted, was engaged with a zombie, completely ignoring him. RàŊổ𝔟̧

Even as William tried clicking his tongue and snapping his fingers rapidly, he got no response.

With the First Disaster taking his seat, the final mobilization and planning on the eve of the Great Annihilation officially commenced.

"Everyone, the final reckoning is about to begin. Next, I will arrange the strategy for malicious incursion, aiming for the highest efficiency and minimum loss to erase everything."

Ruben raised his first finger.

"Firstly, the Manager will use the hotel’s infinite space property to directly deploy zombies to the Divine Domain. The end-times disaster will spread rapidly from within."

Next, the blurred face under the hood turned to the position of the Seventh Disaster, corresponding to the blind old man.

"Secondly, when the end-times disaster permeates the Divine Domain, Old-man you and Yi Chen will secretly head to the lower layers of Heaven holding NO.2. With your traits, you’re unlikely to be exposed and can quickly make contact with that man. .

No need to force cooperation, just inform him that the Great Annihilation has commenced.

After completing the notification task, return immediately to regroup with us."

Ruben’s face continued turning towards the representative of the Eighth Disaster dressed in red.

"Thirdly, from now on, it requires all ’opposites’ to push the whole City of Evil quickly to the surface between planes, carrying all scattered malice along and forcibly occupying the Main Material Plane."

The red-clothed woman with a stiff smile responded in ventriloquism without moving her lips: "My family is ready, and we can push the entire city over anytime."

"Hmm."

Ruben’s face continued turning until it stopped in front of Ma’am Mei.

"Are there enough dumplings?"

Ma’am Mei’s demeanor was strikingly different from last time, appearing not only younger but also vibrant with life.

"Of course, there are enough, and the quality of the dumplings is better than ever. If any of you get accidentally hurt, make sure to come back and enjoy the special dumplings I prepared.

It would be even better if you could bring back some fresh ingredients from the false gods."

That’s about the extent of the arrangements.

Just when everyone thought the meeting was over, and the Great Annihilation was about to start,

a sense of oppression suddenly descended, and everyone present, including the Manager, felt an unnatural agitation, a fear never felt before spreading from the depths of their souls.

The static wood grain on the meeting table started twisting,

and the shadows projected on the walls started swaying and warping,

tentacles representing the root of chaos emerged from the ceiling, walls, and even the table’s surface,

and Ruben continued to speak: "Everyone, I need to emphasize once again before the Great Annihilation, we are not mere pawns of others. The Great Annihilation is indeed our mission, but it does not mean we must vanish along with it;

we have a purpose of eternal existence, as higher beings.

Next, I will introduce a ’Reward and Punishment Rule,’ which will determine your new status after the end of the Great Annihilation.

Gap will be monitoring everyone’s actions throughout from the gaps, scoring your actions.

Those who demonstrate enthusiasm and achieve high scores will have the chance to continue their disaster roles in the new world, even gaining extensive territories and the right to develop related malicious groups.

Those whose performance is unsatisfactory will naturally have their titles revoked, leaving room for better replacements in the eternal years of the new world.

As for those who dare to disrupt the plan, I will directly erase them entirely, reclaiming all malice."

Ruben’s face was turned towards the Manager throughout this speech.

"Finally, myself and William will not be participating with everyone at the start of the Great Annihilation, instead heading to the Sick Focus once, directly solving those unforeseen patients.

Once resolved, we will rejoin all of you.

Hopefully, by then, there won’t be any news that displeases me."

William quickly chimed in, "Rest assured, Boss, you definitely won’t receive any information... I mean, since everyone agreed to gather here, we’re all on the same page! Let’s comfortably deal with those inferior Sick Focus lives.

By the way, how are we getting there? The Pathology World seems to be drifting on the edge and doesn’t belong within the realm of malice.

Should we ask the Manager to send us there?"

Smack!

William’s cheek was pinched, "You’re talking a bit too much."

As a chaotic tentacle snaked over William’s lips from the table’s surface, his entire mouth became invaded by "Chaos Invasion."

Teeth protruded outside of his lips, his tongue split into fine threads scattered along the inside of his mouth, and his throat transformed into densely packed fine plug-holes.

Though he wanted to speak, only a buzzing noise emerged.

"The Sick Focus has long been marked by me;

there’s no need for anyone to send us there... just my Thought is enough to reach the plane where the Sick Focus resides."

At this moment, the grid on Ruben’s face no longer showed as a mosaic but projected the overall shape of the Pathology World.

A spherical living world rooted and parasitized on another world through the ’World’s Foot,’ forming a double ice cream scoop shape.

However, the entire world was enshrouded in dense gray matter, preventing any view of the internal specifics from outside.

"That’s all there is to say;

hopefully, we’ll see each other in the new world... I declare the [Great Annihilation] to commence!"
