[Yesterday, a small town in Ursus suffered a Mystery rampage, leaving all three thousand residents dead overnight. The President of Ursus has issued an extermination order, intending to burn the town to the ground with napalm to prevent the Mystery from spreading.]
[The Flame Kingdom has issued a statement declaring that it will continue to uphold the safety of its people and stands in irreconcilable opposition to the Mystery phenomenon.]
[Recently, Holy Britannia has made breakthrough progress in its research on the Mystery and will, as always, lead the pace of the era, opening a new chapter for humanity in the fight against the Mystery!]
[The Level 6 Mystery disaster, which lasted for twenty-eight days, has finally destroyed the nation of Wakanda in Africa. To prevent this doomsday-level disaster from spreading further, the United Nations has authorized the five permanent members to purify every inch of that country's land with hydrogen bombs! Personnel in surrounding countries have already evacuated to safety.]
Su Yun watched these reports, knowing that this world was like a runaway horse, galloping toward collapse with no turning back.
This was because the world was suffering from a disaster known as the Mystery Resurgence, where various monsters, anomalies, and evil spirits—things that previously existed only in stories and legends and could not be explained by science—had appeared.
Humanity, however, possessed no legendary supernatural powers and could only rely on technology to cope.
In fact, technology appeared utterly useless in the face of these entities of the Mystery Fog; the thermal weapons and various chemical weapons that humanity took such pride in had no way to effectively contain the Mystery phenomenon.
It could be said that in the face of an incomprehensible Mystery, the pride of modern civilization had been trampled like waste paper.
It was only because all Mystery entities feared the sun and were purified under its light that humanity was still able to resist them.
Unfortunately, the weakness of the Mystery phenomenon fearing the sun was also idealistic; the simulated sunlight created by humans, including ultraviolet rays and focused light, was ineffective against the Mystery phenomenon.
This situation, which could not be understood by science at all, was truly just like something out of a myth, leaving humanity feeling incredibly helpless.
Nowadays, the most effective means for humans to combat Mystery entities was to drop hydrogen bombs, as the nuclear fusion effect of a hydrogen bomb could, to a certain extent, simulate the power of the sun, thereby inflicting a devastating blow upon the Mystery phenomenon.
But could such things as hydrogen bombs be thrown around at will?
It was one thing for Mystery phenomena in uninhabited areas, but if a Mystery phenomenon appeared in a city, dropping a hydrogen bomb was the final resort, a means of mutual destruction.
Only when a city, a region, or a country had been completely destroyed by the Mystery phenomenon would such a destructive attack be carried out.
It could be said that humanity was in an absolutely disadvantageous position against the Mystery phenomenon, and it wouldn't be strange if it completely collapsed at any moment.
Because the Mystery phenomenon was becoming increasingly severe as time passed, and while humanity's response experience was increasing and relevant research was being conducted, they were still growing weaker. Many small and medium-sized countries could no longer hold on; chaos was rampant within their borders, and an atmosphere of impending doom prevailed.
The collapse of these small and medium-sized countries also symbolized the beginning of the collapse of the entire world.
Now, countries were filled with anxiety and restlessness, not knowing what to do.
Undoubtedly, in such a world, Su Yun could face a Mystery apocalypse at any time where human life was worth less than a dog's and crises lurked everywhere, potentially leading to a sudden and unexplained "GG."
However, Su Yun was not panicked at all, because he was a man with a system!
Moreover, the system had thrown an ultimate task at him right from the start.
[Please save this world on the verge of collapse!]
At the same time, a massive amount of information flooded into Su Yun's mind, letting him know the specific situation of this world and understanding why he had come here.
The system was produced by the world itself, and Su Yun's transmigration was also caused by this world. To put it bluntly, the world's will realized it was finished, so in a desperate move, it sought a savior from another world.
Su Yun was the savior found by this world.
It was just that he hadn't transmigrated into a magical world, but a comprehensive anime world.
Yes, this was a comprehensive anime world, possessing the 2D "paper wife" characters Su Yun was familiar with, including those from slice-of-life shows and non-slice-of-life shows alike.
It was just that because the world was devoid of magic, no matter what kind of supernatural powers those people had in their anime works, they were merely ordinary people in this world.
Originally, this wouldn't have been a problem; an ordinary world wasn't a bad thing, at least it wouldn't suffer from those world-ending crises.
However, the Mystery Resurgence had arrived.
To be precise, it was a Mystery invasion!
The sudden appearance of the Mystery phenomenon was because this world had accidentally come into contact with an indescribable Mystery space, thus resulting in the current Mystery Resurgence.
However, also because of this trans-dimensional contact, this comprehensive anime world had vaguely developed a consciousness, and upon discovering its dire situation, it instinctively sought help from the outside.
Then, Su Yun unconsciously received the distress signal from the comprehensive anime world in his sleep. In his dream, he had boasted that he was an expert at saving the world; having read countless web novels, played countless games, and holding the super-powerful identities of Master, Commander, Doctor, Captain, and Traveler, he was a little expert at saving the world.
Well, this was purely because he was dreaming and didn't know what he was doing. A confused little guy was asking him for help, begging him to save the world, so his bad habit of playing too many games kicked in, and he directly declared that when it came to saving the world, he was a professional.
Then, the overjoyed newborn world consciousness signed a contract with Su Yun in his sleep, handed over all the power it possessed to him, and pulled Su Yun into its world.
The world consciousness then fell into a deep sleep due to excessive consumption.
Su Yun stood in the strange world, holding the power bestowed by the world consciousness, looking completely bewildered.
Afterward, it took Su Yun three days to fully accept the current situation and consider how to save this doomed comprehensive anime world.
What Su Yun possessed was merely the power given by the world consciousness, a form of Fantasy System with extremely high plasticity and infinite possibilities.
After thoroughly researching this power, Su Yun suddenly discovered that the method of using it was very suitable; it was like a game editor, allowing him to perform free editing.
One must know that Su Yun was a game designer before he transmigrated, so this kind of operation was right up his alley.
Thus, after spending a month, Su Yun molded the power into a system, which he named the Fantasy System.
It was just that this system lacked the intelligence found in those web novels, or rather, it had no intelligence at all; it was a bit of a "dumb duck."
But it was indeed a system, and its functions were combined with the plan to save the world that Su Yun had conceived in his mind, serving the plan entirely.
"The Mystery Resurgence makes humanity full of longing and begging for the supernatural, and this longing and begging turned into countless amounts of fantasy power, eventually awakening the world's consciousness."
"However, because there was no clear behavior or means to absorb this fantasy power, most of it dissipated meaninglessly, or was even absorbed by the Mystery, forming many terrifying Mystery phenomena that were unsolvable for mortals."
"So, if I can collect this fantasy power and put it to use, then I will have a chance to save this world on the verge of collapse!"
"Yes, the laws of victory have long been held in my grasp! Now, everything is ready!"
"Come, let the people of this world truly witness the power of the extraordinary, and let those chosen be granted that power to become the force that saves the world!"
"Don't you agree, exchange student Miss Artoria?"
In the classroom of Class 1-B at Heavenly King International High School, Su Yun looked at the beautiful girl with golden hair, blue eyes, and an ahoge on her head sitting in the front row to his right, a smile curling at the corners of his lips.
