Chapter 502: New Direction

i looked at the explanation in the trait, it seemed to be combining the ability of Indestructible Asura with his original power.

【Transcending Death】, equivalent to two lives plus three seconds of invincibility.

【Bear Spirit Form】, is the combination of a steel body and transformation, the damage reduction effect is too exaggerated. Moreover, it seems to also carry the trait of Indestructible Asura; the same attack hitting later, even Xiong Hanzi's defense cannot be broken.

As for 【Energy Absorption】, this talent effect, in my and Chu An's prediction, Zhang Tie can endlessly strengthen his strength, a trait that transcends the third rank.

The more he fights, the stronger he gets, even the 'training rank' is exempt.

The last item is the upgraded version of the original earthquake skill, making up for Xiong Hanzi's attack methods.

Speaking honestly, compared to Zhang Tie's previous talent, his current talent is simply the most terrifying Lin An has ever seen.

Even, Lin An couldn't help but recall the four strongest of the Huaxia War Zone in his past life.

If this trend continues, Zhang Tie might not be weaker than them, right?

The third rank is as solid as iron plates nailed down, and the fourth rank also holds great hope.

Relying on this talent, with extreme power and defense, among peers, who could be a match?

Chu An, who had been silent beside him for a long time, rarely offered a word of praise:

"Strong."

"Thanks to the trait of 【Energy Absorption】, your strength can rapidly increase."

"How about it, are you interested in working at the weapons test facility?"

"Huh?"

Zhang Tie looked in surprise at the fervently gazing Chu An, for a moment completely baffled.

"What?"

"What do you want me to go to the weapons test facility for? I don't know how to research weapons..."

For some reason, he always felt that Chu An's stare at him was like looking at an excellent test subject.

Lin An sat beside him with a strange expression, lightly coughing:

"Chu An's meaning is probably to have you cooperate in testing weapons, while also increasing your strength."

"That's right."

Colonel Chu smiled, his gaze deep:

"You get stronger when you're hit, and if you encounter the same type of attack once, you can reduce the damage next time."

"This means I can now blast you with missiles, sweep you with machine guns, bombard you with artillery..."

"Not only can it strengthen your strength, but it can also give you great resistance when facing these weapons in the future."

"How about it, are you interested in strengthening yourself?"

As he spoke, Chu An couldn't help but push up his glasses:

"Three months... no... one month."

"Within one month, I can make you immune to all modern weapons!"

"Think about it! We can completely detonate tactical missiles on your body to strengthen your skin!"

"Detonate high explosives in your belly! Strengthen your organs!"

"Withstand high-temperature radiation, laser cutting, liquid nitrogen freezing..."

"We can even test various biochemical weapons and viruses!"

Watching Chu An's gradually perverse and fervent gaze, Xiong Hanzi couldn't help but shrink his neck, trembling in fear.

"Lin Dui!"

"I don't want to!"

"I've just come back to life, damn it! Chu the pervert is going to mess with me again!"

In a moment, Zhang Tie was like a mouse seeing a cat, wishing he could run out of the meeting room right away.

Be good.

Listen to what Chu An will say next.

This is going to subject him to the full set of Chu An's Ten Great Tortures!

Lin An, seeing this, was stunned, interrupting Chu An's attempt to persuade Zhang Tie:

"Chu An... you could say it more tactfully."

"This matter isn't urgent; I actually plan to take Zhang Tie to the secret realm."

When it came to the main topic, Chu An regretfully glanced at him and had no choice but to give up.

"Secret realm? What is that?"

Wen Ya heard the voice, startled, and looked at him with a face full of astonishment.

Besides Chu An knowing he was going to the secret realm, the team members temporarily still didn't know this news.

Mo Ling beside him instinctively glanced at him, wanting to say something, but seeing AnXia hug Lin An tightly, she chose to remain silent, her spirits low.

"Lin An! Are you leaving again?"

AnXia looked at him nervously, afraid he would run away again.

He gave a bitter laugh.

Lin An had no choice but to comfortingly explain:

"There's no way."

"First of all, this is how I learned about the secret realm through Huang Shaohua's mouth."

"Such places are similar to dungeons, but unlike dungeons, the internal world does not disappear after entering, and compared to dungeons, the resources in the secret realm are extremely abundant."

"It can increase strength extremely quickly, of course the danger is also great."

"It's not like a dungeon, which always has hope of completing the mission. The difficulty of the secret realm is random."

Maybe it's so simple that anyone can complete it, or maybe it's certain death.

I must quickly break through my strength, and I cannot rely on system tasks...

After explaining the existence of the Secret Realm, Lin An paused briefly, giving everyone time to digest the information.

He didn't really want to expose his rebirth, so he simply used Huang Shaohua as an excuse.

As for Chu An...

I don't know if he has read this memory of mine, but it's likely he knows, yet pretends not to?

Lin An clearly remembers that after returning from the Amoeba Worm Dungeon, Colonel Chu's first action was to tell him he should go to the Secret Realm.

Players normally increase their strength from Second Level to Third Level, and finally rely on the Trial Tower to master Third Level power.

During this process, players must complete three stages of system tasks.

Second Level intermediate, Second Level advanced, Second Level peak.

Three tasks, corresponding to three strength increases.

After each completion, the system will reward corresponding spiritual energy.

After all, relying solely on hunting Mutants and slowly absorbing stray spiritual energy makes it too hard to increase strength.

Although Lin An's strength has already surpassed these stages, directly reaching a pseudo-Third Level.

But actually, because the Savior System's concealment.

In the system's evaluation, his strength is still First Level.

This means he cannot get the system's recognition.

Once he actively applies for an advancement task, the system will realize he has a "problem".

It's like a poor person going to the bank to withdraw ten million; the bank will definitely activate supervision and investigate where his "money" came from.

Gao Tian, after hearing, looked worried and couldn't help but start advising:

"Captain Lin, since the danger of the Secret Realm is uncertain, why go there?"

"In the real world, strength can also be increased."

"And you're already this strong; there's no need to take such a risk."

Wen Ya beside him also full of incomprehension:

"Yeah, Lin An."

"If you leave, Long'an Base will lose its backbone. You don't need to put too much pressure on yourself."

Silent bitter smile.

Hearing everyone's dissuasion, Chu An suddenly spoke up to explain in his place:

"Do you still remember the Punishment Dungeon?"

"If Lin An does not go to the Secret Realm to seek a breakthrough to Third Level ability,"

"not only will he himself encounter problems, but the system will also not allow him to continue staying in the real world."

"Although the system is rigid, it doesn't mean it's an idiot."

"You might not have noticed, after the death match ended, there were two system prompts."

"I only used system authority to release one; the other was released by the Doomsday System."

"This means the system has noticed this regardless."
