Gou Fugui handed over the alloy metal box belonging to Grandpa Jin to the state.
I cooperated with a free full-body checkup and received a report that I was slightly anemic and needed to supplement my nutrition.
Finally, and most importantly, he revealed everything he knew about the core of the world.
"The seed in the box is the core of the world, but it probably won't be outside that world."
"But what's really important isn't the core of the world; I personally think that repairing the core is the most important thing."
"Although the world consciousness gave me two options at the time, namely recycling and repair, direct recycling would mean giving up that world and all the life in it... Of course, a handsome and kind person like me would not choose that option."
The handsome, long-haired young man made a playful boast, raising his chin with a smile. However, he quickly composed himself, his expression becoming serious.
"I may not have any basis for saying this; it's probably just my intuition."
I think if we go to other post-apocalyptic worlds in the future, it would be best to repair the world's core rather than choosing to take it back.
"Although taking it back might be the simplest method, the dialogue with the world consciousness makes me feel that taking it back is only a 'helpless' choice to avoid the worst outcome. Although the worst outcome has been prevented, it does not mean that taking back the world core will not cause any harm."
The long-haired youth shrugged: "I don't know if I've explained myself clearly, but in short, if we want to better resolve the crisis of the Doomsday Gate, repair is better than recycling."
Minister Tu was very amiable at this moment, and he even pushed the exquisite snacks prepared on the table toward Fugui'er.
What a fine young man!
Intelligent, decisive, and brave, he is also very cooperative and considerate of the tasks assigned by the country.
"I understand what you mean, Fugui'er, it's like an antidote."
Choosing to repair the core is like taking a completely effective antidote, leaving no hidden dangers. Choosing to recycle the core, while also a form of detoxification, is a more potent remedy, not entirely effective, and may leave behind other toxins.
"If there are only a few toxins left, it's not a big deal. Our world can heal itself. But if there are too many toxins left, the body will still get damaged, and the world will still have problems, right?"
The long-haired youth thought about the analogy for a moment, and finally nodded affirmatively.
As expected of the top leader sent by the government to handle the apocalyptic event, his comprehension ability is quite strong.
Minister Tu smiled even more kindly when he saw the long-haired young man nod; he was truly a meticulous and perceptive young man.
"What are the necessary conditions for repairing the world's core? It seems you didn't successfully repair it when you found it."
Gou Fugui nodded again upon hearing this: "Indeed, the necessary conditions are required."
“At first I thought it was necessary to have enough people or animals alive, so I tried my best to bring those animals on board.”
"But the world consciousness told me that I could repair the lack of life energy at the core of the world. I never understood what this special life energy was until that time when someone wanted to capture animals to eat them."
"At that time, those who originally chose to remain silent chose to protect life, which probably meant that the life energy began to change."
"In the words of world consciousness, those who protect life in desperate situations and hold onto hope and faith are the ones who possess the core energy to repair the world."
Minister Tu nodded and couldn't help but sigh, "Such conditions... are truly reasonable yet unattainable."
Gou Fugui nodded in agreement, followed by Xie Langren, who was sitting opposite him and smiling at him, and Song Sanchuan, who was very excited.
The wealthy and beautiful woman rolled her eyes at Xie Tianlang, but smiled at Song Sanchuan instead.
Minister Tu was overjoyed to see this scene. After being Xie Tianlang's direct superior for so many years, he had finally seen a good young man who dared to glare at this werewolf!
What does "fortune changes hands" mean? This is it!
Evil people will always be punished by other evil people! Xie Tianlang, this troublemaker, is finally about to meet his nemesis, who is even more troublesome than him.
While thinking this, Minister Tu happily and decisively finalized Gou Fugui's appointment as a special national talent.
Thus, the scoundrel and swindler Gou Fugui finally became a glorious national civil servant.
They enjoy five social insurances and one housing fund, as well as three additional large subsidies for food, transportation, and personal health and safety.
Even his sister, Zheng Ronghua, enjoys special care regarding family members' employment and personal safety, which shows how much the country values her.
Afterwards, the wealthy and beautiful woman printed out the appointment letter for that country's special talent and dragged her sister to burn it at their parents' graves.
Ronghua's older sister was both happy and worried: "What do special talents do? They won't make you do particularly dangerous missions, will they? Your sister has saved up some money over the years, we don't need to risk our lives!"
The wealthy younger brother smiled smugly and brightly: "Don't worry, sister, your brother is an exceptionally rare and outstanding talent, and... well, I'm a handsome man favored by the world, so I'll turn bad luck into good and enjoy wealth and glory!"
Zheng Ronghua smiled, then she tiptoed and gently patted her younger brother's head: "Yes, our Fugui will turn bad luck into good and live a long and healthy life."
"Your sister is waiting for you to come home."
She's not easily fooled; this world is already shrouded in a dark vortex.
But an older sister cannot stand in the way of her younger brother; she will stay behind and protect their home.
February 8, 2222.
The wealthy civil servant's first day at work.
Everyone sat in the conference room of the Wenchang City Doomsday Gate Research Department, discussing which Doomsday Gate they should go to next.
"According to statistics, there are a total of thirteen doomsday gates within our country. They are distributed in the four directions of east, west, south, and north, without any specific pattern in their location."
"The two largest doomsday gates are one on the snow-capped mountains and lakes in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and the other in the Tagram Desert in Xinjiang."
"The two doomsday gates are 197 kilometers and 186 kilometers in diameter, respectively. Fortunately, both doomsday gates are located in uninhabited areas, otherwise they would probably have forcibly swallowed up many innocent people."
"The remaining eleven doomsday gates vary in size, but the smallest has a diameter of at least 100 meters. In comparison, the now-closed Fortune Doomsday Vortex is actually the smallest in diameter."
"But we don't have enough data to determine the relationship between the world behind the Doomsday Gate and the size of the Doomsday Gate."
Furthermore, according to the energy detection instruments outside each Doomsday Gate outpost, the amount and properties of the energy leaking from each Doomsday Gate are different.
The researcher sitting next to Minister Tu frowned as he spoke: "We are severely lacking in research data."
So don't expect them to tell you which door to enter.
Minister Tu thought for a moment, "Where is the nearest Doomsday Gate to us?"
If you can't tell the difference right away, just choose the one closest to you.
The researcher adjusted his glasses: "Qinling Mountains."
Minister Tu took a sip of tea: "A place steeped in ancient legends."
"Then..."
Minister Tu had barely begun speaking when a sharp alarm sounded from the research institute's monitoring room.
Instantly, everyone's eyes turned to that spot, where the young researcher pressed the communicator on his ear and then widened his eyes slightly.
He quickly jumped up, turned on the electronic screen in the conference room, and after pressing a few keys, a global map appeared on the huge screen.
Or rather, this shouldn't be a global map, but rather an anchor point map marking the world's doomsday gates.
The researcher pointed to a black swirling icon on a region in North America and tapped it twice heavily. Then, the anchor point map on the screen disappeared, replaced by a clear and incredibly impactful image—
The enormous vortex suspended in the sky suddenly began to fluctuate violently, causing small fluctuations and noise to appear in the entire satellite monitoring image, but this was not the most terrifying thing.
The most terrifying thing was that after the huge vortex fluctuated for three minutes, it suddenly threw something outward, and then without a moment's pause, the huge vortex in the air suddenly collapsed. The moment the huge vortex collapsed, it was as if some terrible force rushed out of the Gate of Doomsday, and in an instant, it twisted and exploded the entire city.
No one in the city was spared.
Even so, it was not the end. When the dust settled, a huge, almost transparent gray crack appeared where the vortex of the Gate of Doomsday had once been.
The researcher's voice trembled slightly: "This is footage of the collapse of the Doomsday Gate in North America, just detected by satellite."
"We haven't been able to make contact with them yet, but... this Doomsday Gate has the most intense energy fluctuations detected in North America. It's also the first Doomsday Gate to which North America has dispatched a Doomsday Exploration Team."
The entire conference room fell into absolute silence at that moment; you could hear a pin drop.
And in the midst of this eerie silence, the piercing alarm blared again.
This time, the researchers didn't need to relay the information, because on the huge electronic screen in the conference room, one of the thirteen Doomsday Gates belonging to the China region was suddenly enlarged and highlighted in red—
[WARNING: The energy at the "Doomsday Gate" above the Shanghai Stock Exchange's Pearl Tower is continuously increasing! The energy at the "Doomsday Gate" above the Shanghai Stock Exchange's Pearl Tower is continuously increasing and fluctuating violently! Please take immediate action!]
Everyone's face turned deathly pale in that instant.
Then, the sound of almost overlapping chairs scraping against the floor echoed in the conference room.
Minister Tu and the others looked at the two people who stood up on either side of him, and heard them say:
"What are you waiting for? Let's go to the Shanghai Oriental Pearl Tower!"
"Give me fighter jet clearance, I'll take my men there."
After those two voices fell silent, the atmosphere in the conference room, which had just become tense due to the alarm, suddenly relaxed.
Song Sanchuan shouted, "Captain Xie, wait a minute! I need to bring my newest laptop!"
Qin Feng gave the order: "Doomsday Exploration Team Two, pack your gear! Assemble at the airport in five minutes!"
Minister Tu and the researchers watched the soldiers react quickly and without the slightest hesitation or retreat, their hearts filled with a mixture of pride and bittersweet emotions.
At this moment, all words seemed inadequate, but Minister Tu still gritted his teeth and said, "Take care, and I wish you a triumphant return."
Then the first handsome young man with long hair who stood up suddenly turned back, took out three heavy gold bars from his pocket, and put them into Minister Tu's hand.
"If I don't come back, give this to my sister! As for compensation for her sacrifice, let the government introduce her to a man who is good-tempered, good-looking, capable, loving towards his wife, and rich and powerful! I don't have any other requests."
Minister Tu, who was just feeling heavy-hearted: "..."
"Then you'd better come back soon."
Five minutes later, the first and second Chinese doomsday exploration and rescue teams entered the fighter jet.
An hour later, fighter jets landed at Pearl Square, below the Pearl Tower.
One hour and five minutes later, the wealthy and beautiful woman who had reached the top of the Pearl Tower was about to jump into the black vortex with her combat backpack closed, but Xie Tianlang, who was quick-witted and agile, grabbed her and then carried her on his shoulder and gave her a hard slap on the butt.
"Don't be so reckless!"
After Xie Tianlang finished speaking, he turned to look behind him and said, "You two should hold hands, hug each other, or carry each other, at least make sure that the two of you are in contact when you enter."
"Once inside, immediately locate communication equipment and try to contact Sanchuan or send a message signal, understand?"
After Qin Feng and the other nine responded and carried, hugged, and embraced each other, Xie Tianlang, carrying the cursing and grumbling rich beauty, took a long stride and jumped directly into the black vortex.
Then, when Captain Xie landed fully alert, he discovered with a dark expression that his shoulder was empty.
His roundness is gone.
At this moment, Fu Guiyuan was sitting on a bench in a luxurious plaza, facing the huge LED screen of the shopping mall building.
She was also holding a cup of sweet milk tea in her hand.
He took a sniff instinctively; it was sweet, authentic, and invigorating.
The LED screen was abuzz with advertisements: "[The Fifth Generation All-Functional Gold Liquid is Now Available!]"
The wealthy beauty: "???"
Is this the end of the world? This is absolutely outrageous.
