Chapter 1761: Stellar End 9
After a while, Lin An tentatively pointed toward the Disaster Change rule.
But for some reason, the system gave no further display for either the Disaster Change rule or Soul Walking.
Pressing it several times yielded no response.
Perhaps it couldn't be given, or perhaps even if given it would be useless.
Accordingly, Lin An could only guess at the effect of this combination of rules, which was not as simple and violent as the Apocalyptic Starfall.
Like his Soul Eye, some rules are indeed difficult to manifest.
"Are we opening a blind box?"
"I can't even see the specific abilities..."
Lin An let out a bitter laugh and had no choice but to accept this fact.
After unconsciously glancing at the countdown for the Stellar Mission, Lin An also knew he had no time left to hesitate.
Every minute and second is precious; he must make a choice now.
"If so... let's trace back to the most critical question."
"I need to become stronger."
"And what I'm hesitating about is... whether to choose the safest way to grow stronger or the unknown. Mathematically speaking, one expected value is a minimum of 50, the other ranges from 0 to 100."
"Then without doubt, I should choose the safest enhancement."
"But..."
Absolute rationality is not necessarily correct.
Lin An seemed to detach himself from all pressures, attempting to view his current situation from a third-person perspective.
Having experienced this in the Omniscient Domain state, he knew that viewing the predicament this way was the clearest.
"But essentially, I'm becoming stronger to increase my chances of survival in this mission."
"Exchanging Equipment, exchanging Apocalyptic Starfall—can it let me destroy the Star Destroyer and kill everyone?"
"Impossible!"
"The only way I can truly accomplish the mission is to trigger the Disaster."
Early on, prioritizing combat power was his way to snowball and gain more points. But now at this stage, everything depends solely on the power of Disaster.
Suppressing all distracting thoughts and hesitation, Lin An took a deep breath and ultimately decided to exchange for the Disaster Change rule.
Other rules are good, Equipment is good, but he now has to clear the final stage!
"Hum"
Accompanied by the instant clearing of points.
In an instant, only the exchange light ball above his head poured down a black torrent.
It was as if struck by a high-energy shockwave; before Lin An could react, the next second a massive amount of information surged into his consciousness like a tsunami.
"Beep, exchange successful."
"Acquired branch rule: 【Disaster Control】!"
"Acquired branch rule: 【Resonance Principle】!"
"Acquired branch rule.."
"Acquired.."
Dense system prompts sounded one after another.
Upon first simultaneously bearing so much rule comprehension, Lin An's vision went black and he fainted outright.
At the same moment, as Lin An lost consciousness, a black-purple light flashed from the Death God's mask.
Moreover, as the moment fell silent, amid the buzzing of rule infusion, a muffled groan of slight pain suddenly sounded.
Stellar battlefield, six thousand three hundred kilometers outside the fortress.
Over a hundred Fifth Stage troops, like the Wu Yun following the wolf leader, flew soundlessly across the vast plain.
Clearly nothing could be seen, only a barren yellow-brown earth.
But in the eyes of the leading Hei Di, this place didn't seem as "quiet" as it appeared.
Hei Di scanned the surroundings, his gaze quickly locking coldly onto an open space to the southeast.
Hei Di first waved his hand to have his people behind him stop, then flew alone toward the open space.
"Talming Lei."
"Why hide from me?"
The voice was mighty.
It soon echoed throughout the entire area.
However, after a long while, aside from Hei Di's increasingly cold gaze, the open space truly seemed empty, with no one responding to him.
"Hum"
"Heh..."
A cold laugh accompanied the spatial fluctuation.
Seeing that the person he sought had no intention of appearing, Hei Di gave a cold laugh, and the space in his raised right hand instantly condensed into intense spatial rules.
"Not coming out? Then I'll force you out!"
Without Hesitation.
His right hand opened.
As the spatial force began to twist, Hei Di was actually going to directly open a door on this vast plain.
Yet such an abrupt action had excellent effect.
Almost at the moment the spatial channel began to appear.
A voice filled with panic and anger suddenly rang out from the void.
Damn it!!
Run!!
Boom!!
In an instant.
On the originally empty ground, a thin, long monster covered head to toe in eyes suddenly burst forth.
As if it had drilled out of emptiness.
And at the moment of its appearance, the thousand-eyed monster, without hesitation, activated its disintegration rays, with hundreds of eyes all over its body suddenly shooting green light, directly aiming at Hei Di.
Those strands of lurid green, a powerful rule that corrodes even the air into darkness, sought only to stop Hei Di from continuing to open the door!
Hei Di! Don't force me! I'm not someone you can kill!
I'm not that ice frost trash!
Without regard for whether its attacks affected Hei Di, the Thousand-Eyed Lord burst forth with intense green spiritual energy, then snatched up the clansman behind it and prepared to flee in the opposite direction.
Can't stay here! If Hei Di leaves him behind, he'll really die!
Though the words were threatening, the eyes behind glared angrily at Hei Di.
But amidst the fury of those angry eyes, there was more panic and fluster.
Damn you, Hei Di!
He was hiding here just fine, never expecting that this damned lackey would drive him out!
To be precise, Hei Di used that person's to drive him out!
He dared not bet whether Hei Di was really 'summoning' Lin An.
After learning not long ago that another Star-Destroying Level had died at the hands of Hei Di's group, the Thousand-Eyed Lord dared not risk even a second!
However, it was completely different from what the Thousand-Eyed Lord had worried about.
At the moment he was fleeing with his clansmen, he had thought Hei Di would deploy a dark light domain to trap him, but Hei Di showed no reaction at all.
In midair, Hei Di simply stood calmly in place, detonating each of the corrosive rules he had shot out one by one.
As if harboring no hostility.
Only after the Thousand-Eyed Lord fled to a safe distance did Hei Di spread his hands and lock eyes with him.
Ta Er Ming Lei, if I wanted that person to kill you, I would have already acted.
Why bother opening the door in front of you?
Stop, I have a tremendous benefit to give you!
A mental transmission instantly like a fine thread precisely drilled into the Thousand-Eyed Lord's mind.
Hearing Hei Di's bewildering words, the Thousand-Eyed Lord startled, and the motion he had prepared to have his subordinates activate spatial transmission also instantly ceased.
Without needing to look back, the eyes on his back, like abscesses, stared fixedly at Hei Di, each eyeball filled with wariness and incomprehension.
