Chapter 1813

Kill him, or let him go?

Amid such an absurd and ridiculous scene, Lin An, even while silent, couldn't help but hesitate.

The wailing cries and pleas for mercy that filled the entire starry sky made him feel that everything before him seemed somewhat unreal.

Even the Hei Di and his associates, whom he once painstakingly cared for and treated cautiously, didn't even have the qualification to directly beg him.

The overseers, who loftily held power over his life and death with a single word, now begged him for forgiveness like lapdogs.

Everyone is stronger than him, even to the point that a single thought could kill him!

But at this moment...

Is this, then, true power? Or rather, the so-called Fifth and Sixth Stages—even invincible overseers are merely a pack of slightly stronger worms, still unable to control their own life and death.

The Hei Di, covered in blood, continuously displayed his loyalty, trying to move Lin An by reminding him of past help, desperately pleading, and mentioning his own people.

The defiant, untamable dragon head of the Chimera Emperor now trembled and clung to the ground, as if frightened out of its wits.

The remaining Star Destroyers and overseers, at this moment, all desperately begged for mercy, trying to sway Lin An.

Unconsciously, Lin An couldn't help but glance again at Number 77, at that eerie scarlet eye.

Really, let him make the decision?

Is this what the a077 Overseer wanted to tell him?

But... why tell him these things?

Lin An asked himself, he actually had no real connection with that supreme expert; at most, the other party slightly, slightly appreciated him, had a small task, perhaps needing him to do it.

Besides, Lin An clearly knew he was not, as the Hei Di and others speculated, deeply connected with that supreme expert!

Therefore, Number 77's behavior indeed made him feel somewhat uneasy.

In this world, there's never been gratuitous kindness; he didn't feel he had any worth worthy of the Overseer Committee expending such effort for him.

It seemed to sense Lin An's caution and speculation; almost simultaneously, the scarlet eye gave a light chuckle and slightly shook its head, as if comforting Lin An, telling him he could choose freely without overthinking.

Watching the Number 77 overseer still let him make the decision, Lin An took a deep breath and could only forcibly suppress the strange feeling in his heart.

To kill or to spare—actually, it's an easy choice.

Given his nature, it would naturally be...

Kill them all!

Having a group of overseers serve as his dogs might sound imposing; perhaps Lin An could stride freely in future missions—even a Sixth Stage powerhouse wouldn't dare provoke him in the slightest.

But Lin An clearly understood it wasn't that his power was all fake! Though the overseers spoke nicely, when real action was needed, this bunch couldn't do anything.

This can be seen from Number 77!

Lin An clearly remembered that before acting, the scarlet eye clearly needed to create conditions in order to counterattack.

Overseers cannot meddle at will! No matter how powerful an overseer is, they are still bound by the system.

As for continuing the mission, killing the Hei Di and his associates to obtain a perfect rating?

Lin An would find this quite tempting at that time.

With that thought, Lin An simply let his gaze turn icy, and his mental power reached out to the scarlet eye.

Then, after completing the mission, kill them all!

The next second, as Lin An expressed his intention to leave none alive, the scarlet eye then turned its body and looked toward Lin An.

"Not bad."

"I thought you would be afraid..."

"After all, not everyone has the courage to swing a blade upward."

A faint, enigmatic chuckle.

Before Lin An could even process what he'd heard, he realized his choice was being tested by Number 77.

In an instant, the embodiment of the scarlet eye, Number 77, suddenly burst forth with a soaring red light, pinning Number 1897 alone in place.

"Get lost, all of you, you useless lot!"

"Remember, your lives were spared by this child!"

As the words fell, all the giant eyes except the stellar overseers stared in shock, then their hearts surged with wild joy, trembling as if they could hardly believe it.

"Thank you, Emperor Lin! Your mercy we will never forget!!"

"Thank you, great Overseer Committee! We will never again harbor dissent!"

"Run!!"

"Leave this place!!"

"Whoosh-boom!!!"

Without hesitation, upon being spared, the remaining overseers fled the stellar battlefield at breakneck speed, as if fearing Lin An might change his mind, vanishing in the blink of an eye.

At the same time, watching the overseers being released, Lin An froze, unable to comprehend, and couldn't help but stare at the scarlet eye.

No... didn't we say we were going to kill them all!?

But why did Number 77 let these people go, and even do it in his name!?

For a moment, Lin An felt he increasingly couldn't understand what this supreme expert was doing, as if...!?

It seemed they weren't prepared to explain anything now.

The next second, before Lin An could even think of saying something...

That soaring red light, as if communicating with the entire stellar world, suddenly enveloped both Number 1897 and Lin An, dragging them into a sealed absolute space.

Space shifted, the scene changed dramatically.

Unlike Lin An's heart filled with astonishment, at this moment the stellar overseers left alone, together with the Hei Di and his associates, had already been driven to utter despair.

They didn't know why they were singled out; they only knew they were probably doomed.

As expected.

In a blank, sealed space, Overseer No. 77 coldly looked down at him and spoke coldly.

"Return the points, and I'll let you die a little more happily!"
