Chapter 213: Update on Apocalypse Game
In the boundless realm where energy converges, a space where numerous souls ultimately meet their demise, Fool is intently observing the infinite fluctuations of the multiverse.
Behind him, a portal suddenly materializes.
The Magician and The Hanged Man stepped through the portal.
The Magician’s expression appeared somewhat tense, and after barely managing to steady his tone, he spoke to Fool with trepidation.
“A great Fool, the deity whom I hold in infinite admiration and allegiance, I come before you to report the final outcome of our recent undertaking.”
After delivering this statement, The Magician did not immediately continue.
He was awaiting a response from Fool.
However, Fool remained turned away from the two, fixated on the ever-shifting energies in the boundless void.
The Magician felt an overwhelming sense of pressure.
He glanced at The Hanged Man beside him, hoping that The Hanged Man would pick up the thread of conversation and elaborate further.
Yet, The Hanged Man was certainly not foolish enough to do so, he maintained his silence.
“Why do you not continue your account? Have your efforts utterly failed?”
Fool’s voice resonated from the forefront.
Both The Magician and The Hanged Man felt an immense pressure bearing down upon them.
Though Fool merely uttered a single sentence, the power he exuded inspired a sense of dread even among deities.
“You are correct, our endeavor has indeed met with failure. We were unable to prevent that human named Jeremy from completing the awakening ritual.
However, there is a reason for this! The goddess of class change, Janna, defied the task you assigned her. She conspired with the World to oppose us.
Had it not been for such unforeseen circumstances, we could have effortlessly thwarted Jeremy’s successful awakening.”
The Magician hastily offered this justification.
He hoped that these words might sway Fool to grant him clemency.
Fool slowly turned to face them.
At that moment, in the eyes of The Magician and The Hanged Man, Fool appeared as a spiritual entity composed of an infinite array of energies of varying attributes.
Fool fixated on the two with an array of eyes that continuously flickered.
After a moment, Fool calmly stated, “Gather all the planners of the Apocalypse Games. The failure of your recent endeavor is not solely attributable to your actions.”
This pronouncement from Fool caused The Magician and The Hanged Man to breathe a slight sigh of relief.
“We will immediately summon all the planners of the Apocalypse Games!” The two of them, having accepted Fool’s command, promptly chose to depart.
Fool lifted his gaze to the endless void, as if contemplating something profound or perhaps observing the unfolding cosmos.
No one could accurately discern Fool’s true intentions.
For the immense power possessed by Fool inherently allowed him to deceive other beings.
Any entity attempting to pry into Fool’s genuine thoughts would inevitably fall victim to his trickery.

Before long, all the planners of the Apocalypse Games had been gathered together.
Fool materialized directly in front of the assembled planners.
“The reason I have summoned all of you here today is to announce a new decision of mine. I intend to update the Apocalypse Games.”
This declaration left some of the planners present quite astonished.
While The Magician, The Hanged Man, and The White Tower understood the rationale behind this move, the other planners remained largely in the dark regarding the reasons.
“Fool, I hope you can elucidate why there is a need to update the Apocalypse Game. I believe the current version is quite suitable.”
“In the existing version of the Apocalypse Game, every human has the ability to continually enhance their strength to vanquish monsters. By doing so, they contribute to the acquisition of more souls for you.”
“If we rashly proceed with an update to the Apocalypse Game, there is a significant risk that these ordinary humans may become aware of our existence. Moreover, they might find themselves incapable of overcoming the monsters summoned by the Apocalypse Game thereafter.”
Death spoke to Fool in a tone laced with reproach.
Following Death’s statement, The Star immediately voiced agreement with Death’s perspective.
“Of course, your actions are driven by your own reasons. However, as a planner of the Apocalypse Game, I am not inclined to support this course of action. Therefore, I would like to propose an internal vote.”
The Star had no intention of directly opposing Fool.
The presiding Fool remained silent, merely offering a slight nod in acknowledgment.
Consequently, the assembled planners of the Apocalypse Game began the voting process.
There were originally twelve planners of the Apocalypse Game, but following the fall of The Sun, only eleven remained. Thus, the eleven planners could undoubtedly produce a conclusive result.
Fool, The Hanged Man, The Magician, and The White Tower naturally expressed their unanimous agreement.
They were acutely aware of all that had transpired before. They believed that the only viable solution to counter Jeremy lay in updating the Apocalypse Game.
On the contrary, Death, The Star, The Pope, and The Emperor firmly voiced their opposition.
This left only three Apocalypse Game planners without a vote.
These three planners were The Empress, The Lovers, and The Moon.
“The remaining three of you must each make your respective choices. Since this emergency meeting has been convened by me, we must reach a conclusion during this session.”
Fool addressed the three planners who had yet to cast their votes.
The Empress nodded and promptly declared her disapproval.
After a moment of internal conflict, The Lovers ultimately chose to support the update of the Apocalypse Game.
With the voting at a standoff of 5 to 5, the final vote cast by The Moon would ultimately determine the outcome.
Before rendering her decision, The Moon specifically inquired about the true intentions of Fool and the others.
Upon learning that Fool’s motive for updating the Apocalypse Game was solely to address a single mortal, The Moon’s expression became exceedingly peculiar.
She felt that Fool’s actions were somewhat excessive.
“Do you genuinely believe that an ordinary human could pose a significant threat to us? I think you are being overly cautious! If you cannot provide any other reasons, I shall not support the update of the Apocalypse Game.”
Upon hearing The Moon’s remarks, Fool conjured a phantom scroll in the space of the emergency meeting.
This ethereal scroll vividly depicted the entire process of Jeremy’s awakening ritual.
After witnessing Jeremy’s awakening ceremony, the planners of the Apocalypse Game fell into a profound silence.
Following this, The Moon straightforwardly endorsed Fool’s plan.
“It appears that this individual named Jeremy indeed possesses the potential to pose a tremendous threat to us. Therefore, let us expedite the update of the Apocalypse Game. We must eliminate every human who possesses divinity.”
All the planners of the Apocalypse Game were acutely aware that once humans attained divinity, they could very well seek to supplant them.
To ensure their own preservation and prevent being usurped, they would categorically refuse to allow any humans to attain divinity.
The Moon cast the pivotal vote.
Fool then spoke in an emotionless tone, “The final voting results are in, it appears that the vast majority of planners wish to proceed with the update of the Apocalypse Game. Therefore, we shall initiate the update immediately.”
As Fool delivered this pronouncement, the rules of the Apocalypse Game underwent rapid transformation.
The level cap of the Apocalypse Game was raised from the previous 60 to 70, while the probability of acquiring items and equipment decreased significantly.
Moreover, it was crucial to note that the updated version of the Apocalypse Game posed an extraordinary danger to the most powerful awakeners.
The newly summoned instances and monsters within the Apocalypse Game were specifically designed to target high-level awakeners.
Among these awakeners, the planners of the Apocalypse Game were particularly intent on eliminating Jeremy.
“Although we have successfully updated the Apocalypse Game, the new version will require some time to take effect.
You all must hasten your actions.
The disturbances caused by The World and the class change goddess, Janna, indicate that they have become aware of our plans. If our schemes are thwarted by them, we shall find ourselves in an irrevocable predicament.”
After delivering this statement, Fool vanished without a trace.
The remaining ten planners of the Apocalypse Game exchanged glances, bewildered.
While some of them yearned for additional information, those actively engaged in combat were reluctant to share further details.
After all, they had suffered defeat in the last match.
No one who has tasted defeat wishes to revisit the scenes of their failures.
However, the majority of the Apocalypse Game planners had already grasped the unfolding situation.
They had come to reassess Jeremy’s capabilities with a newfound respect.
“It seems we have underestimated humanity somewhat. While humans are inherently fragile, their capacity for learning is remarkably swift. Moreover, they consistently produce flashes of genius.
Jeremy exemplifies such a genius, his emergence has caused us numerous complications. Yet, if we could capture him, we might glean much knowledge from him.”
The Pope calmly remarked to the other planners of the Apocalypse Game.
