Chapter 1619: Battle of the Stars
*w stars rotate.
Even if there are still tens of thousands of civilizational messages pending processing.
But after reading Lin An's message, even the Overseer couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
With his powerful extreme-point thinking ability, where could he fail to read the meaning behind Lin An's words?
Is he trying to use a Five-Star Mission to offset other disasters!?
But...
Why!?
He subconsciously pulled up the progress chart for the Earth region.
Seeing the data on the progress chart suddenly surge, the Eye of Judgment instantly understood the problem.
Sure enough, there was a problem.
Based on the current progress, at most three to five days, the system will also bring down a disaster.
Although there is still a transitional period in between, time-wise it is far faster than he had previously judged.
Moreover, the situation on Earth where Lin An is located also looks not good.
"Do you want to initiate the Five-Star Mission early?"
"During the Five-Star difficulty, there will indeed be no other disasters."
No nonsense at all.
After the Overseer gave a straightforward answer, a hint of inexplicable emotion flashed in his eyes.
Although he could guess Lin An's thoughts.
But he still couldn't quite understand.
What's the point of this?
Compared to the difficulty of Five-Star, what are the marine beast riots on Earth?
Anyone who is human fears death.
Given Lin An's current strength facing Five-Star, the difficulty is extremely high, to the point he can't even imagine it.
Among the many civilizations he has seen, which of their strongest beings isn't desperately suppressing their ratings, doing everything possible to avoid receiving a mission?
Being able to live one more day is a day.
No matter how crazy a person is, they won't rush to seek death.
On the other end of the communication, Lin An calmly looked at the Overseer's definite answer, feeling neither sorrow nor joy.
He naturally could imagine what the Overseer would think of him.
But, it doesn't matter.
Flee, he will absolutely not flee.
If so, what difference does it make to face it one day earlier or later?
"Overseer, can you see the type of subsequent disasters?"
"I want... to try."
After sending the message, Lin An slowly raised his head, looking at the storm overhead.
The dark-blue storm resembled a vortex in the heavenly sea, and also resembled an eye.
The gale howled, and the people's cheers and battle cries were right beneath their feet.
It's quite ironic.
Although the pseudo-Fourth-Rank youth's origins are unknown, every word he speaks stirs the survivors' emotions.
But, who cares?
Under the leadership of this Fourth-Rank, they seemed to have truly survived, and the marine beasts were repelled.
Whoever saved them is the hero.
Lin An didn't come, and Long An didn't provide support, so Lin An is not 'worthy' of their praise; indeed, as the youth said, he is almost the culprit who almost got them killed.
It's very realistic, and also very cruel.
Yet it should be so.
Half a minute later.
Beyond Lin An's expectation.
Usually lofty and disdainful of speaking much with him, the system enforcer this time remained silent for a long while before slowly sending a message.
"Lin An, according to your world's progress."
"The final mission should be a stellar crisis."
"Around two hundred hours later, your planet will pass through a meteorite belt; precisely, it's a collision between the two."
"The smallest meteorite diameter is 10.7 kilometers, roughly equivalent to that from your Jurassic period."
"The maximum diameter is 343 kilometers, roughly equivalent to one-tenth of the moon."
"If unable to intercept, any one striking Earth will destroy your surface ecosystem; if it's the largest, your planet might even be scattered in space."
Rarely, he gave a detailed account of the disaster situation.
If an outsider were present, seeing the interaction between the Overseer and Lin An, they'd likely be shocked to the point of dropping their jaw.
The Overseer doing this undoubtedly violates system rules.
This is cheating.
"A stellar crisis.."
The gale billowed the cloak behind him, making a loud rustling.
Lin An gave a low chuckle, and within a few seconds he had finished viewing the simulation the Overseer provided.
In the endless dark void of deep space, dense clusters of meteors, like shattered stars, were hurtling rapidly toward Earth.
At a speed of 103,000 kilometers per hour, each meteor carried kinetic energy capable of destroying heaven and earth.
At a counter-speed reaching 166 times the speed of sound, even a Fourth Stage Awakened One skilled in speed could only despair and pray.
"This disaster is specifically aimed at Fifth Stage Rule System, right?"
"If I were skilled in Rule Power, would I have a way to get through?"
It seemed unrelated to me.
Lin An asked calmly, his heart hardly disturbed.
Such a terrifying disaster, compared to this stellar crisis, the zombie virus and sea beast plague on Earth are utterly insignificant.
But he also realized that, if the mission had appeared earlier, or if the Overseer had given information like now, he could think of many ways to get through.
Indeed, as the Overseer said, the system always leaves a sliver of hope.
Of course, the premise is that he is Rule System.
"Correct."
"Under normal circumstances, you're not that unlucky."
"As for this stellar crisis, as long as one is skilled in spatial rules, even a Fifth Stage skilled in kinetic rules has hope to stop it."
"But."
"You can't."
The Judgment Eye spoke, and a flash of strange color passed through its eyes.
The system did not deliberately target.
Although progress increased, in the system data it merely barely met the Fifth Stage conditions.
After all, the main part is still Lin An; other Fourth Stages, no matter how many, are just straw.
Therefore, in the system's judgment, Earth's overall strength is not considered particularly strong.
According to power type classification, upon detecting that Rule System far outweighs other powers, the system merely "mercifully" gave the simplest stellar crisis.
It's just a pity that.
And these straws are exactly the final straw that breaks the camel's back.
"Then please, Overseer, help me change the mission."
"I will do what I promised."
"If I can survive."
Lin An earnestly sent the message, quietly awaiting the Overseer's reply.
Although he might still say something, like begging the Overseer to "help him" again, asking if there are any other ways.
But Lin An clearly knew that the other party's willingness to answer his questions already was the utmost benevolence and righteousness.
"Yes."
"I can help you switch to a battlefield mission."
"But are you really planning to do that?"
"With your current strength, you're unlikely to survive."
