World’s End: My Keyword is One More Than Others

"Ross, the enthusiasm for betting from the audience has dropped again," the casino manager's voice interrupted at an inopportune moment.

"This game arena has lost its suspense, Ross. We need to make a change," the Marketing Department head said. "Du Ge single-handedly changed the operation mode of 'Resource Game.' A competitive game has been turned into a simulation management game by him..."

"How are the ratings?" Ross asked.

"The audience still maintains high enthusiasm," the Operations Department head replied, pausing for a moment. "Their discussions are focused on how many days it will take for Du Ge to finish this world..."

A little guy who is both loved and hated!

Ross crossed his hands together, looking at the real-time images transmitted from the Alien Star Battlefield, lost in thought.

Du Ge single-handedly revitalized this old show, but he also attracted all the focus onto himself.

At this moment, there was still a battlefield maintaining the traditional mode, but apart from a few gamblers, hardly anyone was watching.

After all.

Du Ge's side starts fast and ends fast, with immediate returns, whereas the previous show dragged on for too long...

But this is not a good phenomenon; Du Ge is overextending the life of this show.

Ross could foresee that once Du Ge dies, and they don't have a suitable successor.

The show's popularity will quickly plummet to freezing point, worse than before;

And if Du Ge doesn't die and continues to dominate, it will be even worse for the show. Eventually, the audience will get tired of him...

The company has invested too much in 'Resource Game,' involving interests from all sides. Ross was sent by the company to save this show, not to let it emit its last light and heat...

"Bas, any new progress from the Exploration Department?" Ross asked.

"Still searching," replied Bas, the head of the Exploration Department.

"Better find a planet with higher combat power or technological level to counter Du Ge's performance," Ross said. "That little guy's combat power and mental power are too high, which is unfair to other Alien Star warriors. We must avoid a situation where he dominates alone."

"I'll do my best," Bas responded helplessly. "But Ross, you should know that with such a tight schedule, the chances of finding such a planet are slim. Moreover, the higher the level of such a planet, the higher the chances of unexpected events. We can't predict whether there will be technology or forces beyond our understanding on these unfamiliar planets."

"Bas," Ross smiled, "perhaps time has passed too long, and you've forgotten that the predecessor of Pan-Universal Entertainment was a colonial exploration company. Discovering unknown technology will be a carnival for our entire civilization."

"Alright!" Bas responded, "I hope those guys who crave comfort will still pick up their weapons and fight by then!"

"Hod, has the Planning Department come up with a new plan?" Ross asked again.

"Not yet," Hod turned to look at Ross and said, "But based on Du Ge's performance in the game arena, I think the best solution is to select a new batch of opponents for Du Ge. Those Alien Star warriors who haven't heard of Du Ge's name won't be polite to him. They lack experience in the Alien Star Battlefield and might create miracles on the battlefield."

"Good, I'll schedule it. But this plan will take time," Ross nodded. "Hod, I need a plan that can maintain Du Ge's popularity while also stimulating the enthusiasm of warriors from other planets."

"If that's all, it's simpler," Hod said. "Just reduce the resource supply to those planets. There are ten planets on the battlefield; we can keep resources only for the top three, or even just the first place. Tell the leaders of those planets that if they don't fight, everyone on the planet will starve. Those young men on the game field will definitely go crazy because of this..."

Ross tapped his fingers lightly on the table, "That's a good idea! We can proceed step by step, starting by keeping resources only for the top three."

He paused, "Bas, have the Exploration Department work harder to find substitute planets. Reducing resource supply might cause some planets to perish."

"Ross, you know it also takes time to tame people from new planets, right? According to Hod's stupid idea, in less than two years, half of the people on those ten planets will disappear," Bas complained with a frown. "In such a rush, how can we find suitable substitutes? Previously, we had a year to prepare, now this time has been shortened to three months. We don't have enough manpower, nor such good luck..."

"Indeed, it's a problem," Ross pondered for a moment and said, "The recently ended game fields should not have been cleaned and purified yet. Maybe we can use them as substitute players."

"Including the two game fields Du Ge participated in?" The Marketing Department head frowned, "Ross, I must remind you that in those two game fields, Du Ge also established very high prestige. Moreover, the market has high expectations for these two new simulators, which will bring the company a lot of revenue. I advise you not to touch them..."

"Adan, I'm not that stupid," Ross glared at him, "I'm talking about the two recently ended game fields without Du Ge's participation.

Those two worlds have been ravaged by Alien Star warriors, and the natives on those planets must hate the Alien Star warriors to the core. The company will appear as saviors, giving them a chance for revenge, which will be a new selling point.

Moreover, the audience will choose to buy those old replay videos to understand the new entrants. I'm simply a genius in operations..."

His tone gradually became excited again as he looked at the head of the Planning Department, "Hod, you perfect this matter. We need to gradually and thoroughly exploit all of Du Ge's potential to make him earn more money for us. This crazy little guy will be the company's money tree for the next few years."

"Ross, have you thought about what happens if he dies?" The Marketing Department head said quietly, "You might have overlooked that all your plans today are putting him in a deadly situation."

"..." Ross's expression suddenly stiffened, and he finally forced out a sentence, "I have confidence in him."

...

Du Ge naturally didn't know that his excellent performance had caused Pan-Universal Entertainment Company so much concern. The voluntary surrender of his new partner, Eddie, had given him a taste of the benefits.

Indeed, sharing resources and sparing lives on the Alien Star Battlefield was the right approach. He had already reaped goodwill.

Du Ge liked the prestige of having others bow down to him at the mere mention of his name.

Perhaps he should continue this strategy. He had already won twice on the Alien Star Battlefield, and the resources on Qi Yuan Star were already abundant enough. He had the right to be willful.

...

"Du Ge, are we going to awaken the Sun God?" Eddie asked cautiously, looking at the seraph driving the vehicle.

It had taken him twenty days to capture a city, which he thought was fast enough.

Unexpectedly, Du Ge was already using a seraph to drive, which made him feel particularly frustrated.

Although he had surrendered to Du Ge, deep down, Eddie, like Nobu, felt that this game was too unfair.

"Not only are we going to awaken the Sun God, but if possible, we also need to take him down," Nobu said. Du Ge hadn't killed Eddie and had even taken in this Alien Star warrior from Zhong Tian Star, finally putting Nobu's anxious heart at ease.

"..." Eddie choked, exclaiming, "Killing a god? Are you confident? My skills aren't combat-oriented, I'm afraid I won't be much help!"

"You don't need to fight; you just need to remember the Sun God's appearance and demeanor," Du Ge glanced at him and smiled. "After we deal with the Sun God, next will be the Moon God and the Earth God. By then, you can transform into the Sun God and distract them."

"Alright!"

Eddie looked at Du Ge, feeling like he had boarded a pirate ship.

If Du Ge were from his planet, he would advise him to proceed slowly, awaken the Sun God, and take the reward first.

But facing Du Ge, he didn't dare to advise.

After all, his life was still in Du Ge's hands!

He could only hope that when Du Ge died, the Sun God would listen to his explanation!

He didn't believe that Du Ge at this stage could kill the Sun God.

And with his ever-evolving skills, if he could survive, he might be able to persuade the Sun God to help eliminate other Alien Star warriors, pushing for a major revolution to purge the evil gods.

If he died in this assassination attempt on the Sun God, not advising his planet would also be a good thing. He hoped that by then, the people on his planet would posthumously honor him as a hero!

"Eddie, Nobu, as the saying goes, 'Fortune favors the bold,'" Du Ge interrupted Eddie's wild thoughts. He looked at the two in the car and said, "Such a major event as killing a god will surely secure us a top ten spot. I will ensure you make it to the end..."
