Chapter 1238: Chapter 1237: The Essence of the World Chapter 1238: Chapter 1237: The Essence of the World Blue and red pills lay in the left and right palm of the supervisor.
Blue was precisely the goal Han Dong sought to achieve on this trip, “To seize two Talent Points in the most secure manner possible.”
Only by Opening the gate could Han Dong qualify to return and intervene in the upcoming London incident and beco an important ‘hub.’
However, one sentence from the supervisor particularly caught his attention, “…You need to understand the essence of Talent Points, as this will have a certain impact on your subsequent developnt.”
In fact, this was also the core issue that Han Dong had been pondering–the essence of the Fate System.
Looking at the growth systems he had seen so far.
Whether it was demons, Sacred Level Lives, or the zombies in “The Tombs,” they all had a set of very concrete advancent theories.
But the Fate System granted individuals a nurical form of ‘points’ akin to that in gas, with every accumulation of five points leading to a breakthrough.
Upon careful consideration,
‘Points’ should be a form of data representation that is easy for people to accept, actually symbolizing the experience gained by individuals participating in events of Fate… The Fate System simply presented it to the individuals more directly ‘in the form of points.’
The supervisor’s recent words seed to express one idea: points that are barely obtained were different from those perfectly acquired.
The cultivated Talent Tree would also differ, and it could even affect subsequent gate openings, and even Myth Construction.
…All things considered,
Han Dong pondered for a mont, then took the red pill and swallowed it… Beyond the strawberry flavor, there was nothing special.
The choice caused a slight surprise for the supervisor.
After all, during Han Dong’s interview, he clearly understood the intentions of this intern.
“Strange… Isn’t the fundantal purpose of your choice to handle the uncontrolled case for ‘two Talent Points’? The opportunity is laid out in front of you, why take the risk?”
Han Dong really wanted to retort, especially since there was a certain level of persuasion in the supervisor’s words… Had it not been for the last sentence, Han Dong would likely have chosen the blue pill.
At present, he could only explain his choice in a very formal tone:
“Opening the gate is very important to . Since the supervisor is aware of the world from which I co, you should also know that there exist many beings there whose strength defies common understanding.
On the road of growth, I cannot afford to compromise even one step.”
The supervisor was quite pleased with Han Dong’s response, “Good, it seems you’ve guessed the true nature of ‘Talent Points.’
Although the Black Tower is ‘opposed’ to your world, it is of no consequence to .
Regarding the current situation, I still hold a certain admiration for you.”
When the world opposition was ntioned, Han Dong felt a tremor in his heart… However, the supervisor in front of him seed to be a very fair existence, treating Han Dong without any prejudice throughout the whole process.
The supervisor continued:
“Since you’ve chosen red, I will tell you about so of the root issues of ‘The Tombs’ and pull so strings for you.
Your recent reasoning that the current world is in a ‘promoting’ state is not entirely correct… It’s more accurate to say that ‘a part of it is in the process of promotion.’
“What does that an?” Han Dong couldn’t understand.
“It ans, that the Tomb Lord, that kid, does not want to be confined by the ‘Self-created World.’
After establishing his own realm, he wants to move the entire Corpse Country out of ‘The Tombs’ while completing its promotion… Once successful, it will form a ‘Higher World’ centered around Corpse Country, free from many rules.
After all.
In the Black Tower’s code, ‘world separation’ is strictly forbidden, and I won’t explain the specific reasons.
In any case, if that kid, the Tomb Lord, wants to separate Corpse Country, he must proceed quietly…”
With that explanation, Han Dong suddenly understood:
“This is the reason for the loss of control! To diminish the connection with the Black Tower by deliberately losing control, secretly conducting ‘world separation.’
The chains connected to Corpse Country and the surrounding Floating Islands, they symbolize the ‘wholeness of the world,’ don’t they?”
Once the chains were broken, Corpse Country would complete its promotion.
“You must also have ways to eliminate all loss of control imdiately after the promotion of Corpse Country, returning the world to its normal state… At that ti, with the cooked rice, along with your explanation, the Black Tower should also not hold anything accountable.”
“Your understanding is nearly correct; it’s just that this matter is rather difficult to execute.”
Han Dong asked with a puzzled face,
“Still, I don’t understand why you would give an ordinary person such an opportunity? Even though it won’t affect your status within the Black Tower, surely you’ll endure so gossip, right?”
What Han Dong really wanted to ask was whether the [Tomb Lord] was the administrator’s secret child from a different world.
“When he climbed Moon God Mountain back then, I happened to be in a good mood and agreed to him on a whim.”
“The Tomb Lord also climbed up here?”
“That’s right, that lad wasn’t quite as adept with his hands and feet as you, and it took him a full seven days and nights to finally reach this place… I shouldn’t talk too much about the details, otherwise, it will affect ‘subjectivity.’
Since you’ve chosen the ‘Red Pill,’ continue on your journey.
With your power, you might also serve as an important boost. If you get a chance to see that lad, the Tomb Lord, give this to him.”
With that,
The administrator used his fingers to summon.
A glass bottle, which Han Dong kept in his coat pocket for collecting Moon Water, was filled with a white liquid.
“Thank you, Senior! Without you telling these things, I might have made a judgnt error and ended up opposing the Tomb Lord… that would have made things very complicated.”
“This information can be considered your ‘mountaineering award.’ No need to thank , after all, I too have my own motives, haha.”
With this,
The full value of Han Dong’s climb was realized.
“I’ve been wondering how to address you, Senior?”
As Han Dong asked this question,
the whirlpool on the administrator’s mask began to spin, the pattern slowly morphing into an italicized uppercase letter with a curve – [M]
“In the Black Tower, my code na is [M]. You can call that.”
“Thank you, Senior M.”
With that, Han Dong walked towards the edge of the mountain summit, seemingly preparing to descend on his own.
This action surprised the administrator, “Hmm? You plan to climb down by yourself?”
Han Dong nodded seriously.
“Yes, while ditating just now, I accidentally discovered that this kind of ‘climbing’ greatly enhances the current cultivation of my [Floating Corpse Internal Classic]… Moreover, my physical strength has almost recovered, so there’s no problem with descending the mountain.
Farewell, Senior.”
Gachi gachi~ Tentacles had attached to the wall.
Within seconds, Han Dong had descended several tens of ters, moving much faster than when he climbed up.
The administrator watched Han Dong’s departing figure, the [M] on his mask shifting back into the whirlpool shape.
Once before,
After the conversation with the Tomb Lord ended, the Tomb Lord had to be sent down the mountain directly by the administrator due to exhaustion.
“It’s a pity, if it weren’t for the people from the [Fight Club], this kid could have been trained to be a ‘successor.’
Unfortunately, this kid has ties with the demons, and cultivating him as a successor would certainly provoke so of the more conservative folks… Let it be! Since fate has brought them together, let him et the Tomb Lord; it should help accelerate and hasten ‘world separation.’
It could also save so trouble.
Let him develop to the greatest extent, and if war does break out in the future, he could join for a proper ga.”
