Apocalyptic Wasteland Simulator

Chapter 251 - 246: Nuclear Annihilation of Hantan City
[After hours of fierce fighting, you have fought your way back to the bank’s entrance. However, you feel no joy, because during this process, your new subordinate Wei Hao and the Great Fierce Bear have died. To you, they were nothing more than insignificant consumables.][Upon entering the cavern in the bank hall, you find the situation is even more complex than you imagined. There isn’t just one underground hollow, but countless winding tunnels. At your current rate of exertion, you estimate that you will be submerged in an endless sea of insects long before you find the Brain-eating Worm.]

[An unprecedented panic flashes across your face. Whether facing the Genetic Warrior, the Black Demon, or the envoy of the Blood Beast Ban, you have never once doubted that you could die—a god’s fall is not so easily achieved. Yet, facing this assassin sent by the world’s will, this incommunicable giant Corpse Worm, you experience a despair you have never felt before.] Thıs content belongs to ????????????????????~????????????????~????????????

[Faced with a dire, life-or-death crisis, you feel no fear. Instead, you laugh with excitement. The sound, like that of an otherworldly Demon God, sends shivers down your minions’ spines, but you have no intention of explaining yourself.]

[You no longer choose to flee. Instead, you want to see just how vast this swarm of insects truly is. You will show the world’s will what it means for a god to be wrathful, leaving a trail of corpses for ten thousand miles!]

”Holy crap!”

Chen Pingchuan’s pupils widened as he stared at the text on the simulator. This was the first time it had given him such clear information. So that’s it! He knew he couldn’t be this unlucky. The reason he’d ended up in this predicament was exactly as he’d guessed. The simulator is like a huge bug, intercepting this world’s timeline. The world’s will would certainly try to eliminate a virus that could directly alter reality. It was only because the power extracted by the simulator was so ridiculously overpowered, and because humans were such complex beings, that he had any room to maneuver. And the phrase ’a god is wrathful’ also gave him a clear message: there really was a god hidden inside his body. Or perhaps the simulator itself was a divine weapon, a god’s divinity, one of its abilities, or something else entirely. In short, the simulator didn’t just appear out of nowhere—it was a legacy he had inherited.

Then another question arises: why did the simulator reveal this information to me this time? I have a theory. The simulator is like a weapon, and both I and my divine self are its users. The more energy crystals I invest, the more control I gain over it. It’s like a company—the more money you inject, the larger your stake becomes after share dilution. Maybe one day I can claim this ’divine artifact’ as my own, but only if I can do it before my divine self takes over my body. The previous lapses in sanity must have been due to its influence. I have to suppress it and resist its temptations.

Having solidified his resolve, Chen Pingchuan decided to start frantically grinding for talents and skills to compensate for his combat deficiencies.

[You fight from day to night and back to day again, depleting several energy weapons in the process. Whenever you reach your physical limit, you return to the bank’s vault and kill a human ’blood bag’ to replenish your energy.]

[Ding! A single general’s success is built on the bones of ten thousand. Killing one is a crime, slaughtering ten thousand makes one a hero, and slaughtering a million makes one a hero among heroes. After more than ten days of relentless, sleepless slaughter, the number of giant Corpse Worms that have died by your hand has reached one million. Congratulations, you have earned the title: Insect Race’s Godslayer!]

[Title effects are unlocked ahead of schedule. Other title effects will require collecting ten two-star or higher titles to unlock.]

[Insect Race’s Godslayer]: Title (Four-Star), (Rare, Unique)

Effect 1: The wielder of this title automatically emanates a targeted, chilling killing intent that causes low-intelligence Insect Race creatures to instinctively tremble in fear, decreasing their agility, speed, and attack power by ten percent.

Effect 2: While in an area densely populated by the Insect Race, for every member of the Insect Race that dies within a hundred-meter radius of you, you have a chance to absorb a sliver of its physical strength. This strength is converted into a protective insect shield, enhancing your defense. Insect Shield Energy: 0/1,000,000. It can block attacks with an intensity of up to one million.

Effect 3: In your presence, any hidden member of the Insect Race becomes as conspicuous as starlight in the night sky. Their movements will be completely exposed to you. Detection range: twenty meters.

Effect 4: When fighting the Insect Race, your attack power increases. Damage dealt to defensive carapaces is boosted by twenty percent, stackable up to five times for a maximum of double damage.

PS: You are the natural nemesis of the Insect Race. Wherever you go, swarms are annihilated.

CRACK!

The exquisite, purple, crystal-carved cup shattered into fragments, proving fragile under the force of Chen Pingchuan’s blow. The joy this simulation brought him was overwhelming: a silver-flashing skill, clear information, and a title with god-tier attributes.

Chen Pingchuan, who had been brimming with joy, now looked exceedingly grave. Who was he? Just a ’good young man’ from another world, Blue Star. There’s no such thing as unearned love, and certainly no unearned luck. He had reached his current stage entirely through his own hard work. For such a massive wave of surprises to suddenly land in his lap... his first thought was that something was definitely wrong.

Sure enough, in the subsequent simulation, he saw information that made his gaze freeze.

[The city of Hantan, originally shrouded in darkness, has returned to its normal colors. However, at the southern bank branch, a towering mountain of insect corpses has formed. You stand atop countless insect bodies, roaring at the sky, because the remaining giant Corpse Worms no longer dare to attack you. Just as you are mocking their cowardice, a brilliant flash of light appears.]

[You have died!]

[The skill ’Die With Unfinished Business’ has activated. You witness the aftermath of Hantan City’s nuclear devastation. The once bustling and vibrant city has been transformed into a desolate and silent hell on earth.]

[A giant mushroom cloud, the very symbol of destruction, slowly rises in the city center. Billowing smoke spreads out like a demon’s tentacles, blotting out the sky and plunging the world into endless gloom.]

[The city’s skyscrapers collapse one after another under the nuclear blast’s impact, leaving twisted ruins scattered across the ground. The intense heat from the explosion incinerates all combustible material, and the bodies of the giant Corpse Worms are naturally among the things destroyed.]

[Hantan City, once a place of life and hope, has been thoroughly reduced to a death-shrouded wasteland by the nuclear baptism. Black ash drifts through the air, and an eerie silence hangs between heaven and earth.]

[You died after 24 hours, at the age of twenty!]

[Ding! Due to the excessive distance, Parasitic Revival cannot be activated!]

[This simulation has ended!]

[You may select any number of items from the following rewards. Alternatively, you may pay a fee equal to one percent of the reward’s simulation value to retain it.]
