Chapter 569 - 417: Crucial Intelligence Concerning All of Humanity (Additional - for Alliance Leader Bai Shiyu!)

If I were to say what the biggest gain was this time, Lin Yue felt it was not the Platinum Treasure Chest obtained from taking down the two giant creatures.

Nor was it the treasure chest worth around sixty to seventy thousand, nor the elimination of Du Ping, a major threat, nor even the nearly twenty thousand people’s worth of Storage Space.

Rather, it was this "Systempad" currently in his hand.

This device is a manifestation of the system in the Otherworld, completely synchronizing the virtual system from his mind onto this tablet.

No matter which function of the system, Lin Yue could find it here, and not only that, but the response speed was extremely smooth and fast, including some functions that the original system did not possess.

What Lin Yue was currently looking at was a folder that Du Ping had compiled after obtaining this Divine Artifact, concerning various matters.

The folder contained documents, photos, and videos, and no matter which item it was, they were all extremely valuable intelligence.

The documents were further divided into "Gems," "Lin Yue," and "Information Summary."

Lin Yue had already read through the "Lin Yue" section, leaving a deep impression, especially Du Ping’s proposed "human evolution" theory.

There was a lot of important information on it; summing it up...

"The ’fever’ caused by that giant creature seems to be a kind of ’elimination,’ and it seems that most people died. However, a few people, like the owner of that diary, gained tremendous strength, Liu Kai gained the ability to communicate with the Lizardmen, and I gained the ability to evolve Bai and the others..."

Although there was a thesis and evidence, to be honest, Lin Yue found it absurd.

I can make the Little Ice Lizards evolve? A 100% treasure chest explosion rate is also an evolutionary capability?

Goodness gracious.

Just got here and already have a 100% treasure chest explosion ability, seriously.

As for the evolution of the Little Ice Lizards, Lin Yue clearly remembered Bai only having a fever when it evolved into a dragon the second time around.

What about that previous evolution?

Thus, he scoffed at this thesis and its speculation.

As for the Survivor with monstrous strength, it seemed he was the one who found the diary in that empty Shelter, which Du Ping hadn’t mentioned much, probably because he hadn’t obtained this tablet at that time, thus not recorded.

Regarding Liu Kai...

The ability to communicate with the Lizardmen? So it’s like having a built-in translator.

Lin Yue recalled visiting Liu Kai’s Refugee Village to find it abandoned, with only Zhang Lei remaining, who mentioned Liu Kai’s mad and murderous actions.

Who knows if this so-called "translation" was self-taught?

Perhaps the fact that Lizardmen and beggars could be mobilized by Du Ping also had something to do with Liu Kai’s translation efforts...

With these thoughts, Lin Yue opened the document titled "Gems."

And he quickly discovered what that broken stone in Du Ping’s Storage Space was meant for.

"There’s a photo... Goodness, it’s a Luminous Pearl." Lin Yue took out the seemingly unremarkable pale green stone and identified it. Indeed, it was a "Luminous Pearl," or rather, a "Luminous Stone."

And it was documented in the files as the "gem" of the Lizardmen.

Lin Yue flipped through the document and found out that diamonds, rubies, sapphires, and emeralds, which had been taken away, were associated with him in the documents.

Moreover, these seemed to be things that the Lizardmen absolutely must not lose.

It was also written that this point could be used to mobilize those Lizardmen.

Oh, is that so.

That page, flipped to the end, contained a picture and a video clip.

The picture was very familiar to Lin Yue, like the thing he had seen every time in the giant room—a mural.

This mural depicted a mysterious and eerie ritual process.

Lin Yue examined it carefully and made a summary.

"The gems seem to be used by the Lizardmen for summoning something, just like what Old Sun said, precisely the same; the video on this lacks anything noteworthy, similar to the photos."

Gems... concerning a mysterious Lizardmen ceremony, the summoning target; it seems you can tell from the picture.

It’s those two moons.

What exactly is on the moon?

Lin Yue looked up at the sky.

A clear azure sky.

The moon... can only be seen at night.

Emmmm... better focus on the task at hand. There’s too much information on this tablet to possibly digest all at once.

Lin Yue put the tablet back into the Storage Space and walked over to the Shelter hurriedly set up by Du Ping and Old Sun.

With a light touch, he acquired eleven Shelter Design Maps.

At this moment, Xiao Meng also brought back Old Sun’s body, placing it alongside Du Ping’s body carried by Bai.

Lin Yue looked at the two corpses, his gaze ultimately resting on Old Sun.

This old thing clearly had more to say, but time would not wait for him; honestly, he couldn’t keep letting him be.

Just evading both direct and indirect pressures, this old guy still hadn’t revealed some key points.

Like how Du Ping and he gathered so many Lizardmen and beggars.

Honestly, the numbers were simply ridiculous. Also, did the gems end up in his hands or not— could Du Ping just rely on his mouth to bamboozle so many Lizardmen and beggars?

Even mobilized that many Secret Realm creatures, including creatures as powerful as the Storm Flying Lizard and the Poison Celestial Dragon.

Seventy thousand Lizardmen, twenty thousand beggars... it just didn’t add up.

Moreover, there’s another point.

Lin Yue had an honestly significant question all along.

Leaving aside how their "first survival" attempt went, there definitely was such an event; otherwise, the Doomsday Bunker story wouldn’t hold.

The crucial point is, how did Old Sun and Xing Lingfeng return to Earth?

According to that diary, both Xing Lingfeng and Old Sun disappeared.

And Old Sun just said that he and Xing Lingfeng both returned to Earth through a white Ancient Secret Realm Gate.

However, there’s a catch here.

That diary’s account was from its owner—someone named Wang Gang who recorded it based on Old Sun’s description.

Even Old Sun’s latest word, though highly consistent with the diary, was still said by Old Sun!

In other words, Xing Lingfeng and Old Sun’s exploration, finding the white Ancient Secret Realm Gate by the small lake, Xing Lingfeng’s departure, disappearance, and Old Sun finding the white Ancient Secret Realm Gate again...

No one else could verify it!

You could even conclude those accounts aren’t very credible.

Unless they capture Xing Lingfeng and get questions asked clearly, otherwise, it becomes a dead-end case.

Regarding why Lin Yue was so concerned now...

Honestly, the reason was simple.

Humans cannot permanently reside in this Otherworld long-term.

With disasters occurring every seven days, dangerous mutant creatures, and the Lizardmen threatening survival...

Barren mining fields, ever-present systems, and those conspiracies and oddities lurking under everything...

Compared to here, even decades later, Earth would still be better.

If a way could be found to return without being forced by the system into survival disaster games.

Then the whole of humanity, as before, could become the masters of Earth again!

And the peaceful life of the past would return, right?

"Xing Lingfeng... will be a key."

To open definitely not Pandora’s box!
