Chapter 1154: Did the Guild Add New Members While I Slept Last Night?

~5 min read 967 words

Su Han returned to his room, lost in thought.

Because he had just wielded the Reality Stone, he now had an extremely profound understanding of its power.

The Reality Stone possesses the power to rewrite the real world.

In other words, Su Han could use it to create attacks similar to the Treasure Room of Kings, or summon ferocious beast servants with extraordinary combat power... even alter the world itself.

For instance, if Su Han wished, he could instantly move Jianghai City a hundred li away... or make the moon vanish and extinguish the sun.

However, just like the Power Stone.

The use of the Reality Stone also carries immense limitations.

The Reality Stone is powerful, yes, but it requires Su Han's physical stamina to keep up, otherwise it cannot be called truly invincible.

"The Reality Stone likely has two modes of use: one is temporary alteration, the other is permanent alteration."

Su Han's eyes flickered; temporary alteration was like what he had done to the moon before—temporarily making the moon disappear from this world, during which time Su "san er er ling"

Su Han's stamina would continuously drain, as he maintained the phenomenon of the moon's disappearance.

But once Su Han stopped using the Infinity Stone, the moon would reappear; whereas permanent disappearance required an instant expenditure of an unimaginably vast amount of stamina, erasing the moon entirely from this world at its very foundation.

Permanent alteration, though terrifyingly potent, consumed stamina far beyond imagination—more than ten thousand times that of temporary alteration.

Even with Su Han's stamina, it was difficult to sustain permanent alteration using the Reality Stone.

"It's understandable."

Su Han sighed softly, shook his head; if permanent alteration consumed little stamina, he would be utterly invincible right now... facing any enemy in the future, a single thought could make them vanish—how could he not be invincible? Returning to his room, Su Han found Lei Mu quietly waiting inside.

"Master! You must have heard about the recent moon disappearance incident."

Lei Mu's expression was grave.

"Oh... I know. That incident was caused by me."

Su Han said casually.

Lei Mu: "..."

Su Han's words instantly choked off every sentence Lei Mu had planned to say; she could not utter a word for a long while.

Yet, the gravity on Lei Mu's face instantly eased; she smiled wryly at Su Han, her expression filled with both sorrow and understanding, "... Master, I should have guessed this was connected to you all along."

Lei Mu paused slightly, then shook her head, "But it's fine! Since nothing happened, I'll take my leave."

Before Lei Mu could perform her maid's bow, Su Han stepped forward, seized her hand, and pushed her onto the bed.

"Since you've come, don't think about leaving."

Lei Mu realized what he meant; a blush spread across her face as she whispered, "... Should I call Lei Mu over too?"

"No need. Tonight, it's just you."

Su Han's voice was gentle.

The night passed.

Su Han lay lazily on the bed; Lei Mu had already left, and the bedding was neatly arranged.

His Perception Sense detected no sounds in the house—everyone who needed training had already gone.

He pulled out his phone and scrolled for a moment; he found last night's information had fully erupted.

【Astronomy experts come forward to debunk: it was merely a phenomenon similar to a solar eclipse】【The United States! The Russian Federation! The European Union! All on full alert】【The United States' supreme Grand Master Bill Gates delivered a midnight speech, claiming yesterday's events in the U. S. were perfectly normal—no need for concern】【China! A rare clear stream among global powers! After initial vigilance, China lifted its emergency alert】【In-depth analysis: Reasons behind the actions of global powers versus China's response】 As Su Han scrolled through the posts, his expression grew increasingly complex.

The headlines were alarming, but the content itself was... moderately ordinary; however, the comments beneath each news article were fascinating.

"Experts should be called 'fake experts' instead."

"When I woke up this morning, I only learned the moon had vanished for a while last night! If the online buzz hadn't been so intense, I'd have thought you were joking with me!"

"Same here! Also, is this really not an April Fools' joke?"

"Can your April Fools' joke sweep the entire world?"

"I'm terrified right now! Don't be fooled by the online messages saying everything's fine and safe, with experts debunking it... but when I saw foreign nations ramping up military readiness and Grand Masters returning home, I knew this wasn't simple!"

"... But what about China? China is so chill!"

"Didn't you see China was tense last night too? They just relaxed later! I suspect the authorities received some secret information."

"Terrifying! This topic shouldn't be discussed further—I feel talking too much might get me invited for tea by the State Security Bureau."

"Yes, it's not an illusion! China's completely different, clear-stream attitude compared to other global powers has surely drawn attention—those countries are all trying to figure out what secret China knows."

"To be honest, even though I know the world may be facing a crisis, living in Jianghai City, I'm not worried at all—I'm actually delighted."

"After all, I'm a man who owns property in Jianghai City!"

"Whoa, that's... the real estate speculator's paradise! Property prices skyrocketed twentyfold in a short time, rivaling the nation's top-tier cities... Jianghai City tycoon, you actually own property in Jianghai City!"

"Don't think I'm just pretending to be jealous—I'm so envious I've cried all my tears dry... I burst out crying like a loser..."

"A living Supreme Grand Master of the world is in seclusion here—just how capricious."

As he read, Su Han's expression grew increasingly complex; he thought of the entire villa district he owned in the heart of Jianghai City.

He fell silent.
