This Character is Suspected of Cheating! [Unlimited Flow]

As long as they blew up the Black Camp's inheritance, the ears wouldn't be able to return, the inheritance couldn't be completed, and the Red and Green Camps would still have a chance.

They could not allow the Black Camp's inheritance to become the master of this world. Even more, they could not allow order to be restored and themselves to be turned from humans into "animals" and "plants"...

The Red King watched expectantly. The Green King, who had yet to arrive but could already see the battlefield through his equipment, also watched with anticipation.

Wanrenzhan, however, felt only despair.

He was no longer a complete sword.

Half of the blade had broken away. The edge had curled completely. The sword body was covered in dents and cracks, as though it stood on the verge of disintegrating.

The broken sword fell to the ground, trembling violently. No matter how hard it struggled, it couldn't fly back into the air. The more it struggled, the more cracks spread across its body, and the harder it shook.

This trembling wasn't fear.

It was instability before detonation.

It was collapse from within.

This time...

Death stood very close to Wanrenzhan.

The audience was even more despairing than he was.

Several livestreams floated before them. He Yu's livestream occupied the center, the largest one, giving the clearest view of everything. The others surrounded it.

—Complete defeat.

Eugene, Duan Yuchen, and Siya had indeed attracted the attention of the Red and Green Camps. Even after the Fifth Elder and the others turned back, they had left several people behind specifically to continue hunting the trio.

The three fled with everything they had.

In the end, they were caught.

They had all seen the upheaval in the sky.

The Red and Green Camp members had no intention of wasting time. They only wanted to kill the three with a single strike before returning to Lilu City.

Eugene had no ability to resist.

Duan Yuchen ✧ NоvеIight ✧ (Original source) roared,

"Split up!"

As soon as he shouted, the white Tangyuan wearing the crown transformed into three separate items—a mask, a small hammer, and a crown.

The mask and crown had no mobility.

Only the hammer, which was Duan Yuchen himself, could fly.

If he abandoned them now and escaped, leaving Eugene and Siya to delay the pursuers, Duan Yuchen might survive for the time being.

As for whether he could live in the end...

That depended entirely on whether He Yu succeeded.

Yet Duan Yuchen gritted his teeth—

—and charged straight toward the enemy.

Not only were the audience stunned, even Eugene and Siya stared at him in surprise.

Just moments ago, both had assumed Duan Yuchen would flee.

Allowing him to "go" had simply been Eugene's final act of kindness, believing they were already doomed.

Never had they imagined Duan Yuchen wouldn't leave.

Instead...

He stayed to fight.

The two felt indescribably complicated emotions.

Grinding his teeth, Duan Yuchen stubbornly said,

"If He Yu loses, running away just means dying later. Don't overthink it."

It wasn't like he wanted to save them.

They were competitors.

Why would he save competitors?

Damn it!

Why had he chosen to stay?

Had water gotten into his brain?

He should've escaped without the slightest hesitation and hidden himself.

"Bang!"

The instant he engaged, he was blasted flying.

Fortunately, although the little hammer capable of forging equipment had poor offensive power, its defensive capability was excellent.

Again and again the enemy smashed the hammer flat into an iron pancake, yet still failed to destroy him immediately.

Unfortunately, the difference in strength was simply too great.

With a gloomy expression, the opponent raised their equipment high overhead, preparing one final full-powered strike to eliminate the annoying little thing once and for all.

Eugene and Siya exchanged a glance.

Eugene pressed himself against the crown.

The white Tangyuan appeared once more.

Immediately afterward, he bounced repeatedly into the Red and Green Camp attacker.

The fake He Yu naturally didn't possess the white Tangyuan's true abilities.

Eugene's disguise ability could only imitate appearances and basic capabilities.

Unique abilities remained impossible to copy.

Even so, he controlled the white Tangyuan to ram into the attacker again and again, trying to stop them from killing Duan Yuchen—

—even though he knew they couldn't delay them for long.

As for why...

Why had he chosen to become He Yu?

Perhaps because, subconsciously, he felt that in such absolute despair...

...only He Yu could save them.

While Eugene's trio sank into despair...

The cactus Qiong had been sliced down until only her roots remained, barely clinging to life.

Zhante was in no better condition than Wanrenzhan.

His blade trembled violently, on the verge of collapse.

The chain Cheng Zhao had been reduced to a single short segment, no longer able to bind anyone.

The great hammer Yuan Ze had been hacked down into an iron lump no larger than a fist, embedded straight into the ground.

As for Bo Jingshan...

Only a single wheel remained.

Gedai lay motionless on the ground, almost no longer breathing.

They had completely lost the ability to protect the Black Camp's flag.

The toys had suffered devastating casualties as well and could no longer stop the Red and Green Camp forces.

The greater the changes in the sky became...

...the more anxious the Red and Green Camps grew.

The more anxious they became...

...the more mercilessly they attacked.

At that very moment...

In different cities, Chashu and Li Mao simultaneously struck at the Black Camp's flag.

After a brief blank pause, the Bullet Screen exploded.

"AHHHHHH! Is Gedai dead?!"

"His livestream's still there... he should still be alive... sob..."

"What's the difference? Even if he's not dead now, he'll die in a second!"

"It's over. They all lost. He Yu's finished too."

"Does He Yu have any other way? Why is he just standing there spacing out?! Everyone's about to die, what's he spacing out for?!"

"This instance had a hundred top experts, yet only Zhen Xing survived because he left early... this is too tragic."

"I have to say, He Yu's insane plan completely failed. The other contestants actually cooperated, even risking their lives to protect each other. Ridiculous. Nothing like this has ever happened in the history of the Top Talent Show."

"Exactly. If he wanted to restore order with such a crazy plan, he should've expected this outcome. They had to bear the Red and Green Camps' counterattack."

"Forget that, hurry and vote! The votes for He Yu, Eugene, and Gedai are really close. Duan Yuchen, Siya, Qiong, and Zhante can still be saved. Vote quickly!"

"I'm voting for Duan Yuchen. He Yu has to bear the consequences of his failed plan."

"Oh please. When the plan succeeds nobody complains, but the moment it fails everyone blames He Yu?"

...

The instant Hei Teng and the Fifth Elder lunged toward the Black Tangyuan...

Everything collapsed.

Everyone seemed to have "failed."

But Eugene and the others failed at the exact same moment Hei Teng and the Fifth Elder rushed toward the Black Tangyuan.

The Bullet Screen flowed so quickly...

...that all of it happened in only two short seconds.

He Yu was distracted for only those two seconds.

He wasn't stunned because of Hei Teng and the Fifth Elder preparing to self-destruct.

He froze because of a single message mixed into the overwhelming flood of Bullet Screen comments—

【Looks like He Yu's dead. Just got news that the people opening the passage between Blue Star and the Universe Federation were attacked by an unknown force. The passage failed to open. Today really is Blue Star's unlucky day...】

The passage...

Failed to open?

An unknown force attacked?

Within those two seconds, countless thoughts flashed through He Yu's mind.

Like a high-performance computer operating at full capacity, innumerable possibilities raced across his mental "background processes."

But only for two seconds.

—The crisis before him demanded immediate attention.

Hei Teng and the Fifth Elder rushed toward him like living bombs.

He Yu's expression didn't change.

His body leaped high into the air.

He slammed into the top of the castle beneath his feet.

The impact launched him like a meteor hurtling through space, accelerating him toward Hei Teng with terrifying speed and force.

The angle he chose was incredibly precise.

He wasn't simply charging Hei Teng.

At this angle, Hei Teng would be slammed directly into the Fifth Elder.

One attack.

Two targets.

Explosion?

Could their self-destruction possibly surpass He Yu's explosion?

He was a sphere.

A sphere filled with energy.

He himself was the naturally existing bomb.

As long as he exploded within a small radius before they detonated, killing both of them first...

...they would never be able to stop the Red and Green inheritances from returning to Little Black.

Only once the inheritances returned...

Only once Little Black became the new order...

...could every contestant in this instance survive.

He shot toward them.

He was so impossibly fast that the audience collectively froze.

Someone covered their mouth.

Their eyes widened in disbelief.

Was...

He Yu committing suicide?

Did he not want to live anymore?

No.

He Yu wasn't committing suicide.

He had simply calculated the timing with absolute precision.

The ears moved incredibly fast.

Hei Teng and the Fifth Elder would explode 0.798 seconds before the ears returned.

He intended to explode exactly one second before the ears returned, stopping Hei Teng and the Fifth Elder first.

He gambled that he wouldn't be completely dead within that single second.

He also gambled that the Black Tangyuan would react quickly enough to save him.

Once the ears returned...

The Black Tangyuan would become this world's order.

He could save him.

He Yu had always dared to gamble.

He had never been stingy about wagering his own life.

If he feared death...

He would have died during the preliminary selection.

Thus...

The audience witnessed a scene they would remember for the rest of their lives.

That little white Tangyuan looked tiny and harmless.

It seemed no different from the Blue Star little Tangyuan they casually talked about every day.

Soft.

Cute.

Utterly lacking in aggression.

Yet at this moment...

Like a meteor, he slammed into Hei Teng.

The terrifying speed carried Hei Teng crashing into the Fifth Elder.

There wasn't even the slightest pause.

The audience couldn't even clearly see what happened.

"BOOM—"

A deafening explosion erupted.

The three exploded together.

A cloud of blood mist filled the sky.

Red intertwined with black.

From the instant He Yu flashed forward...

...to striking Hei Teng...

...to crashing into the Fifth Elder...

Everything happened so quickly that no one could react.

Those who watched carefully noticed one thing.

He Yu's expression remained calm from beginning to end.

Even at the instant he exploded...

His eyes didn't seem to change at all.

The scene seemed frozen.

Only the drifting blood mist remained.

The bright red blood was impossible to ignore.

Yet mixed among it...

...was black.

He Yu...

Was dead?

The thought had only just formed...

...when the scene trembled almost imperceptibly.

Then—

Everything changed.

The white Tangyuan He Yu stood atop the castle once again.

The Black Tangyuan floated in midair.

The barrier across the sky continued forming and repairing itself at incredible speed.

Everyone stared blankly.

"???"

Huh?

Had...

Nothing happened?

Were they mistaken?

It had lasted only a single second.

The image had flashed by before anyone could properly see it.

【Bullet Screen: "??? Did I see that wrong?"】

【Bullet Screen: "I swear I just saw He Yu explode!!"】

【Bullet Screen: "Me too!! But why's everything normal now? Nothing happened??"】

【Bullet Screen: "HOLY SHIT! LOOK! The Fifth Elder and Hei Teng disappeared! Little Black has ears now!!"】

【Bullet Screen: "!!!"】

The audience was instantly stunned.

Every pair of eyes fixed themselves on the scene, examining every tiny detail for fear they had missed something.

Some even rubbed their eyes to make sure they weren't hallucinating.

They still hadn't figured out what had happened.

They still weren't sure whether they had imagined everything...

He Yu answered the question for them.

Looking toward the Black Tangyuan, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly.

"You reversed time."

His tone carried complete certainty.

The audience instantly understood.

So...

Time had been reversed.

No wonder they had clearly seen He Yu explode...

...yet it ended as though nothing had happened.

Little Black had reversed the instance's time one second after He Yu exploded—

before He Yu had fully died—

returning to the moment before the explosion and killing Hei Teng and the Fifth Elder first.

—Little Black truly had become the new order!

—Otherwise, reversing the instance's time would've been impossible.

Once they understood...

The shock on everyone's faces only deepened.

Every eye focused on the white Tangyuan standing atop the castle.

Their expressions were filled with horror.

A madman.

He Yu was absolutely insane.

He had blown himself up...

...just to stop Hei Teng and the Fifth Elder.

If the Black Tangyuan hadn't saved him...

Or hadn't reacted in time...

Then regardless of whether the instance succeeded or failed...

He would have died.

Earlier, they had thought He Yu was ruthless toward the other contestants.

Making them gamble with their lives.

Sending Eugene away to lure enemies.

Now they realized—

He was even more ruthless toward himself.

The audience stared silently at He Yu.

The Bullet Screen fell blank once more.

No one knew what to say.

Even Qiao stared blankly.

After a long while, they murmured,

"What an absolute madman...

...an unforgettable madman."

Everything that had happened within that single second...

That dazzling explosion...

It resembled He Yu himself.

Mad.

Yet unlike anyone else.

As long as he had appeared once...

He would forever paint a color across people's memories unlike any other.

And afterward...

No one could ever forget him.

He was a man who constantly surprised and astonished people.

Even after reaching what seemed to be the absolute limit...

...he still managed to shock everyone even more.

In the Top Talent Show...

Forget the rules.

Forget the competition format.

It almost seemed as though the words "Top Talent" had been created...

...for He Yu alone.

Even if he had truly died just now...

No one watching would ever forget that such a contestant had once appeared in the Top Talent Show.

Now that he lived...

They would remember him even more.

He Yu—

The man who blew himself up to gamble for a chance at survival.

Someone every person present would remember forever.

—The incredible madman, He Yu.

Little Black could reverse an instance's time.

However, this wasn't the traditional sort of time reversal that returned the entire world to the past.

This reversal merely went back to change certain events.

It couldn't erase everyone's memories.

Others might think they'd simply seen things incorrectly.

He Yu wouldn't.

After all...

Everything had unfolded exactly as he'd anticipated.

—At least, the part where he won the gamble.

There was one thing he hadn't expected, though.

He had known the blue-eyed Little Black would save him.

He just hadn't expected...

...such an overwhelming reversal of time.

This method of saving him left him completely unharmed.

Originally, He Yu had only expected to remain alive.

As long as he still had one last breath...

Like the other contestants, he could wait for promotion.

Once they returned to the transit station...

Everything would be restored.

The Black Tangyuan looked at him.

His expression was different now.

His face was full of anger.

His tiny hands clenched tightly together.

He stared fiercely at He Yu, filled with reproach.

He Yu smiled faintly.

"I knew you'd save me."

Little Black couldn't hold it in anymore.

His blue eyes glared.

"But what if I hadn't made it in time?

You would've died."

Standing atop the castle, the adorable white Tangyuan showed not the slightest trace of regret.

His expression remained calm.

His voice was equally calm.

"If I died, then I died.

Although according to my plan I most likely wouldn't die...

...if the unlikely possibility happened...

...that would simply be the consequence of my failed plan."

If you devised a plan...

You accepted its consequences.

The audience, who had secretly blamed He Yu for making such a reckless plan, all fell silent.

Little Black grew even angrier.

Clenching his teeth, he asked,

"What about me?"

He Yu looked at him seriously.

"There are no banquets that last forever.

Whether through death or departure...

...everyone parts eventually."

Little Black froze.

His beautiful aqua-blue eyes stared at He Yu.

Even the light within them seemed to dim.

【Bullet Screen: "...Why do I suddenly feel like He Yu just broke Blue Eyes' heart?"】

【Bullet Screen: "Take out the 'feel like.' Listen to what He Yu just said. That belongs in a scumbag quote collection!"】

【Bullet Screen: "??? Didn't he basically say the same thing to Xiao Lü?"】

The audience watched the projection intently, waiting for Little Black's reaction.

When Xiao Lü heard those words, he became furious and forcibly kept He Yu by his side.

What about Little Black?

Would he also force He Yu to stay?

If he truly wanted to...

No one could stop him.

【Bullet Screen: "...Why do I suddenly kind of want to see a forced-possession plot?"】

Just then...

The Red King's flying vehicle finally arrived.

The Red Camp's inheritance had already merged into the Black Tangyuan.

The once perfectly round Tangyuan now had an adorable pair of ears.

After merging, the ears automatically turned black.

The completely black long-eared Tangyuan looked unbelievably cute.

Unfortunately...

The Red King didn't think so.

The only thing filling his mind was—

Could the Red Camp still be saved?

His vehicle approached cautiously.

He tentatively opened his mouth.

"Your—"

"GET LOST—"

Little Black turned around and roared.

Terrifying energy exploded outward, flipping the Red King's flying vehicle over instantly.

The unfortunate Red King:

"..."

I hadn't even said anything!

【Bullet Screen: "HAHAHAHA he ran straight into the muzzle. Little Black can't bear to lose his temper at He Yu, but he has zero problem taking it out on everyone else. Hei Teng and the Fifth Elder didn't even leave corpses behind."】

【Bullet Screen: "He Yu really is a bit of a scumbag, but I LOVE IT! Even as a Tangyuan he's ridiculously gorgeous. Scumbag me too! I'd accept it willingly!!"】

【Bullet Screen: "Little Black's still fine. The previous Blue Eyes were all killed by He Yu. The big cat, Li, Xiao Lü—they all died because of He Yu. Wait... why haven't they advanced yet?!"】

【Bullet Screen: "HOLY SHIT! Are all the Blue Eyes going to end the same way?!"】

He Yu looked up at the sky.

As expected...

When the gradually forming barrier reached directly above them, circle after circle completed itself...

Leaving only—

A tiny...

Tiny gap...

right at the center.

The barrier no longer repaired itself automatically.

Something still had to fill that final opening.

What that something was...

Didn't need to be said.

He Yu pressed his lips together slightly.

The Black Tangyuan understood even more clearly than He Yu did.

Yet he wasn't watching the sky.

He was watching He Yu's expression.

Seeing him purse his lips, Little Black's mood instantly improved.

He did care.

Even knowing this ending had been inevitable...

He still cared.

Even if only a little.

Little Black unclenched his tiny fists.

Keeping his eyes fixed on He Yu, he asked,

"They're going to die.

If I fill that gap...

...they won't die, right?"

"They" referred to the other contestants in this instance.

He Yu's temporary companions.

He Yu first glanced toward Wanrenzhan, who was barely hanging on to life.

He knew everyone else was in roughly the same condition.

Although the ears had returned...

Although every flag had disappeared...

Although the war between the cities had stopped...

Those people were still in danger.

The Red and Green Camp members could go mad at any moment and kill them.

His gaze returned to the Black Tangyuan.

Looking directly at him...

He slowly nodded.

Yes.

If the Black Tangyuan filled that gap...

They could advance.

They could return to the transit station.

If he refused...

They would all die.

And as the order of this world...

No one could force the Black Tangyuan to make any choice.

No one could defeat him.

After all...

He could now even reverse time itself.

Little Black took a deep breath.

"I really want all of them to die...

...but I don't want you to die."

As soon as he finished speaking...

He suddenly moved.

The round Black Tangyuan floated toward He Yu.

When he reached him...

He stopped abruptly.

The black and white Tangyuan faced one another.

Little Black's black ears twitched.

His clear aqua-blue eyes gazed at He Yu expectantly.

Still pure.

Still clean.

His eyes contained only He Yu.

Little Black spoke in his usual voice.

His tiny arms spread open.

Softly, he uttered two words.

"Hug."

He Yu paused.

After a long while...

He seemed to sigh helplessly.

Then he moved slightly...

...and gently leaned against the Black Tangyuan.

It wasn't really a request for a hug.

What Little Black wanted...

...was He Yu's attitude.

The two adorable Tangyuan—

One black.

One white.

Two soft little creatures with wonderful texture—

Lightly pressed against one another.

Warmth passed between them.

The touch felt incredibly nice.

Such a simple gesture...

Yet it made the Black Tangyuan so happy he began rolling around.

He had received the answer he wanted.

Completely satisfied.

Although the white Tangyuan's arms were short, he could still reach the Black Tangyuan beside him.

As Little Black rolled happily, one ear came within reach.

He Yu gently pinched it.

It felt just as nice.

Originally he hadn't intended to say anything.

But looking into those crystal-clear blue eyes...

He murmured softly,

"Until we meet again."

—Parting...

...might simply be preparation for a longer reunion.

The blue eyes visibly brightened.

Little Black stared at He Yu as though trying to engrave every detail of him into memory forever.

His voice was soft.

There was even a trace of grievance within it.

"Little White...

You have to remember me.

I'm Little Black."

He Yu gently squeezed his soft body.

"I will."

The blue-eyed Tangyuan floated upward.

His gaze never left He Yu for even a single moment.

His eyes overflowed with attachment.

"There isn't much time left.

Please put me up there."

He floated voluntarily onto He Yu's tiny hands.

Wanting He Yu to send him personally.

The instant He Yu caught him...

Little Black smiled.

His body transformed into countless strands of black mist that drifted toward the opening in the sky.

The round Black Tangyuan gradually disappeared.

Only the black mist continued rising.

The last thing to vanish...

...was that beautiful pair of aqua-blue eyes.

As though by lingering one moment longer...

...he could look at He Yu just a little more.

He Yu stood silently where he was.

His eyes lowered slightly.

No emotion could be read from his face.

The final strand of black mist drifted upward from his palm...

...and filled the final gap.

"BOOM—"

The sky trembled faintly.

Then the barrier began to shine.

The brilliant light became almost blinding.

The instant the light faded...

The barrier disappeared completely.

Vanishing without a trace.

At that moment...

The collapsing world regained order.

The rules became whole once more.

A new world was born.

Everyone froze in place.

Wanrenzhan, Eugene, Zhante, Gedai, Duan Yuchen, and the others—

Who had all been hovering on the verge of true death—

Heard a familiar announcement.

Like a savior...

It pulled them back from the side of death...

...to the side of life.

They all let out long breaths.

—This desperate gamble...

...had finally been won.

Following He Yu, they had danced on the edge of death.

Leaping back and forth between life and death.

At last...

They had landed on the side of life.

【Ding! Congratulations to Blue Star No. 2333 He Yu, Mechanical Planet No. 26 Eugene, Battle Planet No. 1 Wanrenzhan, Inheritance Planet... for successfully advancing into the Top 1000! Remaining slots: 2/1000.】

【Congratulations on clearing the final elimination-instance, "Species Collapse," and completing the mission "Restore Order and Return Everything to Its Proper Course." Advanced equipment rewards have been granted.】

【Congratulations to He Yu for assisting in killing the inheritance and completing the Heavenly Dao. Inheritance drop obtained: Li Zhan's Zither (Divine-Grade Treasure).】

【Until the next instance begins, contestants may not kill one another.】

Compared to that zither...

Every other equipment reward seemed insignificant.

The moment the zither appeared before He Yu...

Silence fell.

Inside the competition.

Outside the competition.

Everywhere.

—A Divine-Grade Treasure.

—The zither Li Zhan had forged within the Top Talent Show.
