Chapter 2561 The Door to Omega 1

Hei Longyuan said bluntly, "To be honest, there are many intelligent people among them. They also know that the real enemy is Drucker, the Seven Deadly Sins."

"But don't expect them to be noble heroes willing to sacrifice themselves for the greater good. They don't feel obligated to protect six generations of humanity. Instead, they see you as an opportunity."

Zhang Yi frowned: "What opportunity?"

Hei Longyuan stared at him intently: "An opportunity to achieve Omega status."

The air suddenly felt heavy.

This wasn't the first time Zhang Yi had heard this term.

In many ancient descriptions, "Omega" is regarded as a mythical entity, considered the "extreme" or the "final end of life".

Zhang Yi squinted: "Could you explain it more clearly?"

Hei Longyuan nodded: "Omega, in your human language, means 'infinity'."

"In terms of the ability system, it is no longer measured by 'superpower index' because that is meaningless."

"For ordinary superhumans, the superpower index is a curve, starting from a few thousand, tens of thousands, and then it keeps going up. When you reach the knight level, the index is fifty thousand or even sixty thousand, and the energy structure is beyond the comprehension of ordinary superhumans."

"But what is Omega? In numerical systems, Omega is defined as—infinity."

"In other words, it has deviated from linear growth."

"It is no longer described separately as energy, physical body, and spirit. It is closer to a 'rule itself'."

Bai Longzi Yuanmo added, "Simply put, once you reach Omega, you are no longer using the ability; you are the vessel of the ability itself. You are the embodiment of a certain concept."

He glanced at Zhang Yi and said seriously, "This is the only level that can directly confront a Drucker-level being."

“The Seven Deadly Sins,” Zhang Yi said softly.

The black dragon and the white dragon nodded slightly.

Hei Longyuan's voice deepened: "The title 'Seven Deadly Sins' was given to them by six generations of humans. We previously referred to them as 'the Seven Eternal Kings of Drucker'."

"They are the seven strongest individuals in the Druk race. They have been besieged, suppressed, sealed, torn apart, stripped of their powers, and had their physical forms destroyed by us time and time again... We have fought them all the way to the present day, and only the seven of them are still alive."

"You can think of it as—seven immortal Drucker kings."

"It's not that they are the seven deadly sins, therefore they are strong; it's just that they happen to be strong enough to still be alive, which is why you've labeled them with the seven sins."

Bai Longzi added even more coldly: "And they are all at the Omega level!"

Zhang Yi's Adam's apple bobbed slightly: "In other words, to deal with those seven kings, one must demonstrate strength at the same level."

"Correct."

“And this level,” Heilongyuan said quietly, “is not something anyone can reach by cultivating for thousands of years or rolling through mountains of corpses and seas of blood. It is not something that is accumulated, but rather something that is activated by the ‘era’.”

"The so-called activation of the era means that only when the era reaches a critical point will the Creator 'open the threshold' and loosen the rules of the entire planet in order to counterbalance Drucker."

"During that brief window of opportunity, a few life forms had the chance to step in and become Omega."

He stared at Zhang Yi and continued, "Did you understand?"

"This is why all races are in conflict and fight each other!"

“They’re not just grabbing territory; they’re grabbing the ‘window of opportunity’.”

"They will exterminate entire tribes, annex entire regions, and rewrite the ecology of the entire area, all in order to squeeze out enough resources and causal factors to detonate themselves and gamble on a leap forward."

Bai Longzi said calmly, "If they win the bet, they may become the new Omega."

"If they win the bet, their name will be on the main roster for the next round against Drucker, not yours."

"If they win the bet—"

"The existence of you six generations of humans is no longer important."

Zhang Yi did not speak immediately.

He quickly organized their words, like setting up a chessboard again.

First, the apocalypse is brought forward not to destroy six generations of humanity, but to solve the problem of Drucker's loss of control and to recall the entire old era's fighting force ahead of schedule.

Secondly, the six generations of humans should have had a growth cycle, but it was abruptly interrupted, resulting in the current six generations appearing "immature, unevolved, and weak in the eyes of all races," and thus being treated as variables that can be sacrificed.

Third, the various races are vying for territory not only for resources, but also for the "leapfrog window," for the only chance to become Omega.

Fourth, Omega is the only level that can directly challenge the Seven Deadly Sins.

The Seven Deadly Sins are the seven Drucker Kings who survived the ordeal and were not killed; each of them is an Omega.

and so--

Zhang Yi exhaled slowly and said softly, "So from their perspective, we sixth-generation humans are not qualified to be partners, but rather 'fuel piles that can be used for sacrifice'."

This explains why the mass deaths of six generations led to the emergence of a large number of powerful individuals in various ancient civilizations.

Later, the return of 146 billion high-level spiritual matter from the Ihen Clan to the Ether was another major explosion of power.

Bai Longzi did not deny it; instead, he nodded and said, "Very accurate."

"Then they really don't need to pity us."

“In their view, our deaths were even a necessary step for them to achieve their own goals.”

Hei Longyuan stared at him intently: "This is reality."

The air was extremely low.

The wind in the distance was still blowing the same way.

The projection screen maintained by the Celestials in the sky has dissipated, leaving only some broken energy traces on the scene. Those energies are like charred nerve threads, twitching for a moment before returning to stillness.

Zhang Yi stood still, his fingertips slightly flexing.

He looked up at the Black Dragon and the White Dragon Prince, revealing a genuine smile that he rarely showed to others—a smile that came from the heart.

It wasn't a relaxed laugh, but rather a laugh that said, "Okay, I understand."

"I understand."

His voice was steady: "Then, what I need to do next is very simple."

"First, I must ensure that the Huaxu Kingdom is not used as a 'sacrificial resource.' Anyone who wants to gamble on us will have to get past me first."

Hei Longyuan looked at him with a deep gaze.

“Second,” Zhang Yi continued, “I have to find a way to open that door myself.”

Which door?

Bai Longzi asked, even though he clearly already knew the answer; he just wanted to hear Zhang Yi say it himself.

Zhang Yi looked at him and slowly uttered those two words.

"The gate to the Omega level! Only it holds the hope for the survival of our race."

Hei Longyuan finally smiled clearly for the first time.

That smile wasn't one of relief in the human sense, but rather a long-lost sense of comfort.

He narrowed his golden vertical pupils, as if he were witnessing a process he was very happy to see.

"very good."

Hei Longyuan said quietly, "It's always good for people to have dreams, so keep working hard. Maybe one day, they'll really come true?"
