The Crawling Chaos. One of the outer gods that was closest to the ‘origin’ of the universe and favourable to humans… this was according to mythology. In fact, there was no mention of him in Ways of Survival.
爬行的混乱。这是神话中最接近宇宙起源、最适合人类的外界诸神之一。事实上，在《生存之道》一书中并没有提到他。
[ The Crawling Chaos… did the ‘Last Wall’ call me that? ]
《爬行的混乱》......《最后一堵墙》是这么叫我的吗
“It’s just my guess.”
“这只是我的猜测。”
[ It is literature left by the ‘recorders of fear.’ Believing in records that aren’t even 100 years old, you are more naive than I thought. The unknown can’t be revealed in human language. ]
这是“恐惧的记录者”留下的文学作品相信那些还不到100年的记录，你比我想象的还要天真。未知的事物不能用人类的语言来表达
I bit my lips. There wasn’t much known about the outer gods in the myths that were the prototypes for Ways of Survival. In the 74th turn of Ways of Survival, one of the ‘recorders of fear’ left the following remark:「 “Everything we wrote was a lie. It was the only lie we could use to explain the unknown horrors.” 」
我咬了咬嘴唇。在《生存之道》的原型神话中，对外界诸神知之甚少。在《生存之道》第七十四卷中，其中一位「恐惧记录者」留下「我们所写的一切都是谎言」。这是我们能用来解释这场未知恐怖事件的唯一谎言。”
I was a bit daunted as I asked, “…Are the myths on Earth wrong?”
当我问道:“地球上的神话是错误的吗?”
[ I am Secretive Plotter. That is enough. ]
[我是秘密策划者。这就够了。]
It was an ambiguous answer but also a sufficient one. I didn’t know if he was the ‘Crawling Chaos’ or not. At the very least, it was clear that Secretive Plotter was undoubtedly a strong outer god.
这是一个模棱两可的答案，但也是一个充分的答案。我不知道他是不是‘爬行的混乱’。至少，很明显，SecretivePlotter无疑是一个强大的外神。
“I have a request.”
“我有一个请求。”
[ You want to ask me to stop that. ]
[你想让我停止那样做]
“That’s right.”
“没错。”
The Secretive Plotter looked down as the mass of fog swallowed a planet. The time of the world was slowed down by the power of Secretive Plotter but it wasn’t completely halted. The Secretive Plotter kept looking down as he spoke.
这位神秘的密谋者低下头，看着浓雾吞没了一颗行星。秘密密谋者的力量延缓了世界的时间，但它并没有完全停止。这个秘密的策划者一边说话一边低头看着。
[ The fog is a disaster originating from the beginning. It is impossible to eliminate it completely. ]
雾从一开始就是一场灾难，不可能完全消除
“I know that there are ways.”
“我知道有办法。”
The Secretive Plotter just looked down at the universe while disregarding my words. I waited nervously for what he would say next.
秘密的策划者无视我的话，只是低头看着宇宙。我紧张地等待着他接下来要说什么。
The shimmering shadow made a disturbing sound. I didn’t think it would feel like this when I heard the indirect messages on the channel. I thought he was a good constellation with lots of playfulness and friendliness…
闪闪发光的阴影发出一种令人不安的声音。当我在频道上听到这些间接的信息时，我没有想到会是这样的感觉。我认为他是一个很好的星座，有很多的趣味性和友好性..。
The shadow currently in front of me only gave off a cold and frightening sensation. I didn’t know what happened but the appearance of the 73rd Demon Realm suddenly seemed close. It was as if I was looking through a telescope of enormous magnification as I saw the people of the industrial complex.
眼前的影子只给我一种冰冷恐怖的感觉。我不知道发生了什么，但是第73魔界的出现似乎突然就要到来了。当我看到工业园区里的人们时，就好像我在用放大倍数很大的望远镜观察。
-Kim Dokjaaaaa!
- Kim Dokjaaaaa！
Jung Heewon’s voice seemed like an auditory hallucination. I saw the party members screaming in despair.
郑鹤元的声音听起来像一个幻听，我看到党员们绝望地尖叫着。
[ Why are you trying to save them? You can see the ending even if you live alone. ] “The ending is only meaningful if they are there.”
你为什么要救他们？即使你一个人住，你也能看到结局“只有它们在那里，结局才有意义。”
As I spoke, I stimulated dozens of questions and answers in my head. Both my hands were sweating. I couldn’t fail here. No matter what, I had to convince the Secretive Plotter in this conversation.
在我说话的时候，我在脑海中激发了许多问题和答案。我的两只手都在出汗。我不能在这里失败。无论如何，我必须在这次谈话中说服秘密策划者。
[ What if they don’t want it? ]
如果他们不想要怎么办
I slowly opened my mouth.
我慢慢地张开嘴。
「 Dammit, Kim Dokja! Stop! Please! Come back! 」 「 I don’t want this! I don’t want to survive this way. 」 「 I’ll do anything. If you die, I’ll die. If you are going to sit still, I’ll sit still. Please don’t do this!
该死的，金杜佳！住手！求你了！回来!」“我不想要这个!”！我不想用这种方式生存“我愿意做任何事”。如果你死了，我也会死。如果你要坐着不动，我就坐着不动。请不要这样！
Please! 」
请!」
The voices of my party members were heard using Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint. They didn’t say it but I heard the words.
我的党员们的声音是通过无所不知的读者视角听到的。他们没有说，但我听到了那些话。
[ What if the ending they wanted was to die with you there? Do you still want to save them? ]
如果他们想要的结局是和你一起死在那里呢？你还想拯救他们吗?]
I barely managed to open my mouth. “…Yes.”
我勉强张开了嘴，“......是的。”
[ It isn’t salvation. It is a curse. ]
这不是救赎，这是诅咒
I couldn’t come up with an excuse. It was my story that answered on my behalf.
我想不出一个借口，是我的故事为我作出了回应。
[ The story ‘Demon King of Salvation’ is continuing. ]
(“救赎之魔王”的故事还在继续。)
The Secretive Plotter watched the story coming from me and kept asking, [ Using those who should’ve died, changing the world line, hurting everyone and reaching the ending you desire… what is the meaning? ]
神秘的密谋者看着故事从我这里传来，不停地问，[利用那些应该死去的人，改变世界的路线，伤害每一个人，达到你想要的结局......这是什么意思?]
The empty eyes of the shadow were shining. An eerie chill went down my spine.
影子的空洞的眼睛闪着光，一股可怕的寒意顺着我的脊椎滑落。
[ No matter what you do or what story you make, you can’t truly reach them. ]
[不管你做什么或者写什么样的故事，你都不可能真正接触到他们。]
The indirect messages didn’t reveal the essence of the constellations. Just as I couldn’t fully understand the characters from reading the books. Maybe it was a mistake to see the Secretive Plotter.
这些间接的信息并没有揭示星座的本质。就像我不能完全理解书中的人物一样。也许看到秘密策划者是个错误。
However, it was too late to back down. I opened my mouth after a moment. “…I heard that once in my childhood. Still, there is still the ‘wall’ left behind.”
然而，现在让步已经太晚了。过了一会儿，我张开了嘴。“我小时候听过一次。尽管如此，仍然留下了一堵‘墙’。”
They were words that Jang Hayoung once said.
这是张海英曾经说过的话。
“Even if there is an insurmountable wall between me and then, even if it isn’t heard by the person beyond the wall, I can write something on the wall and at the very least, the wall will change.”
“即使我们之间有一堵不可逾越的墙，即使墙外的人听不到，我也可以在墙上写点东西，至少，墙会改变。”
I wasn’t able to say a proper goodbye to Jang Hayoung. Perhaps he was in the ward like Yoo Jonghyuk. “Maybe after a very long time, somebody might look at the wall.”
我没能和张海英正式道别。也许他和柳永玉一样也在病房里。“也许过了很长一段时间，有人会去看看那堵墙。”
There were no words from Secretive Plotter for a while. Every sentence had a different meaning to the interpreter. To the Secretive Plotter who lived for a very long time, my words might sound completely different. Even so, these were the only words I could squeeze out with my 28 years of wisdom. I just hoped that these words would move something in the Secretive Plotter.
“秘密密谋者”有一阵子没有说话了。每个句子对解释者来说都有不同的意思。对于活了很长时间的秘密策划者来说，我的话可能听起来完全不同。即便如此，这也是我28年的智慧所能想出的唯一一句话。我只是希望这些话能打动秘密策划者。
[ I don’t agree with your method but I’m curious. ]
我不同意你的方法，但我很好奇
Finally, the Secretive Plotter opened his mouth.
最后，秘密的密谋者张开了嘴。
[ Let’s say you reach the end of everything using your method and save the world. Then what about the other worlds? ]
比如说，你用你的方法到达了一切的尽头，拯救了世界。那其他的世界呢?]
“Huh?”
“啊?”
…Other worlds? The moment I was about to speak, the universe at my feet flipped over like a card. The cards that were divided into dozens and hundreds of pieces were shining in their own way with different colours and shapes.
另一个世界？就在我要开口说话的那一刻，我脚下的宇宙像一张卡片一样翻转过来。这些卡片被分成几十张和几百张，以不同的颜色和形状以自己的方式闪耀着。
It was a dimension more distant than the Star Stream. A world that was blurry but clearly existed. It contained the world of Ways of Survival that I had read.
这是一个比星流更遥远的维度。一个模糊但清晰的世界。它包含了我读过的《生存之道》的世界。
There was Yoo Jonghyuk who died in the Theater Dungeon in the eighth round.
还有在第八轮比赛中死在剧场地牢的柳钟玉。
There was the Yoo Jonghyuk who went to the Breaking the Sky Sword Saint in the 18th round.
第18轮比赛中，有一位名叫俞钟玉的选手进入了“破天剑圣人”。
There was the 41st round Yoo Jonghyuk who made the choice to sacrifice his colleagues.
第41轮选手柳永玉选择牺牲自己的同事。
There was the 181st round Yoo Jonghyuk who stood up from despair.
