Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate
Chapter 492 - 487: Rapid Clear
Clearly.
The trials within the Tower of Fortune are randomly assigned.
However, they remain consistent in essence; the trials of the first two floors are predominantly aimed at achieving a high elimination rate to first sweep away most of the Lords with lower strength.
Defeating ten opponents in a row, especially those of the same level, is not something anyone can easily accomplish.
This not only requires luck but also one’s own strength to support; without some means, one may not necessarily pass.
Of course.
Lin You is aiming for the tenth floor, so naturally, he has no time to waste on the trial of the first floor.
After strolling around between various arenas and observing the battles among the Lords, he directly chose to challenge.
Swoosh!
A light shone.
Lin You was instantly transported to an arena where a battle had just ended.
"Oh? Someone was teleported up again."
"Haha, another unlucky fellow randomly assigned to this arena."
As soon as he stood firm, a gleeful voice immediately came from beside him.
Because the Lord of Lin You’s arena is a guy who’s already on an eight-win streak, very strong, every Lord that went up lasted less than a minute before they were defeated.
Around the arena, it was crowded with Lords from various realms who came to see how those stepping up to challenge were beaten.
"Brother, I’d advise you to surrender quickly. That guy is not to be underestimated."
A Lord below shouted at Lin You on the stage, seeming to advise yet also jestingly.
"I bet he gets knocked down in less than a minute."
"A minute? Too long, at most forty seconds."
"More like thirty seconds tops."
The other Lords discussed among themselves, all guessing how long Lin You could last on stage.
Some even started betting on the ground, making the whole arena lively.
Lin You ignored them and looked at his opponent this time.
A man of small stature, but emitting a chilly aura all over.
With black leather armor armed from head to toe, it seems he should be a Humanoid Lord.
Because the Racial Talent of a Humanoid Type is to enhance equipment bonus effects.
So basically every Humanoid Lord would specially create a set of equipment suitable for themselves to maximize their own strength.
"Kid, if you don’t want to die miserably, it’s still not too late to admit defeat."
The Humanoid Lord was also sizing up Lin You, and when he couldn’t sense the aura of Rule power on him, his expression turned indifferent.
His pair of daggers spun in his hands, glinting with a cold light, as if to show off to Lin You.
"The fight hasn’t even started, how do you know I’ll lose?"
Lin You raised an eyebrow, looking at the other party with interest.
The equipment on this guy was not weak, all Tier Nine, and under the enhancement of Racial Talent, the effect exerted was indeed considerable.
Unfortunately, the opponent didn’t give him much chance to observe further.
"Since you don’t want to surrender, then I’ll send you down."
With these words, a sudden explosion sounded at his feet, his whole person transformed into an arrow darting violently towards Lin You.
The speed was so fast that it caused an uproar of surprise.
Lin You didn’t expect the opponent to be so direct, his gaze focused, sidestepping to narrowly avoid the incoming daggers.
However.
At this moment, the Humanoid Lord’s body abruptly dissipated, magically disappearing in front of him.
Afterimage!
Lin You’s expression slightly changed.
He didn’t sense the aura of Rule power, meaning this was an effect attached to the equipment.
Swish!
Suddenly, a cold light gleamed.
The dagger-wielding Humanoid Lord appeared directly on another side, the dagger aimed at Lin You’s throat.
Lin You’s steps sunk, leaning backward to strike the Humanoid Lord’s arm with a knee, simultaneously drawing his sword and slashing horizontally.
But what was sliced through was the afterimage left by the opponent, disappearing once again from sight.
It seems that the guy’s equipment effects are all assassination type, or abilities assisting assassination.
Since you like to hide.
I’ll make sure you have nowhere to hide.
Lin You’s lips curled upwards, the Power of Rule secretly operating.
In the next moment.
A booming sound erupted, the arena floor was directly broken open, countless vines surged out, rapidly spreading around the entire arena.
"What?!"
The Humanoid Lord, about to launch an attack, was shocked, unable to react before being struck hard by a vine, violently sent flying and forced out of his stealth.
"Power of Rule!"
"It’s actually a substantial figure with a condensed Divine Fragment!"
The Lords watching from below the stage were stunned by this unexpected scene, exclaiming one by one.
A Lord who can successfully condense a Divine Fragment at Tier Nine, isn’t one a prodigy within the Ten Thousand Realms?
Just pulling one out, they are a terrifying existence, admired by countless Lords.
Never mind them.
Even the Humanoid Lord, currently fighting Lin You, was startled to widen his eyes, forgetting to attack.
Soon, however, he regained composure, gritted his teeth, dodging the encirclement of vines, once more launching an attack on Lin You.
This time, he held nothing back.
The two daggers in his hands exploded with endless edge, his feet tapped twice on the arena then flashed abruptly, instantly closing in on Lin You within a ten-meter range, appearing before him.
The daggers, infused with formidable power, seem to tear through space, flashing past Lin You’s throat.
Rip!
The ear-piercing sound of air being torn rang out.
The Humanoid Lord’s daggers didn’t carry the sensation of hitting a target, causing his face to change drastically, instinctively flashing to one side.
Boom!
A blast sounded, several spiked vines burst from where he stood, slicing a huge gash across his thigh. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
The Lin You who should have been in the center of the arena had somehow appeared at the edge.
With a raise of his large hand, an inexhaustible number of vines crazily emerged, encircling towards him.
The Humanoid Lord dodged left and right, evading back and forth, slicing through one vine after another with his daggers.
The ever-growing vines and the arena gradually shrouded by plants made him keenly aware of Lin You’s terrifying prowess.
Finally, no longer struggling, he hastily shouted to the sky:
"I surrender!"
The decisiveness of surrender was simply unlike the person he was earlier.
And at the moment his voice fell, his entire being was wrapped in light, disappearing instantly from where he stood, leaving only a large area of plants on the field, and Lin You standing alone among them.
Everything around was silent, everyone widened their eyes to watch the changes on the field.
At this moment, how could the arena still look like an arena?
It had long transformed into a terrifying forest with vines everywhere.
"So strong!"
"Is this the Power of Rule?"
"Even that guy lost!"
"Who exactly is he?"
The Lords who came to their senses were all shocked, frightened by the terrifying strength Lin You displayed.
Even the Lords from nearby arenas were attracted by the scene, rushed over to investigate the situation.
The powerhouse with eight consecutive victories was easily defeated just like that.
If it hadn’t been seen with their own eyes, who would dare believe it?
They also grew fearful of Lin You, not daring to approach the arena even in the slightest.
Swoosh!
At this moment, light flashed.
A young Lord who chose to challenge was randomly assigned to the arena where Lin You was located.
Upon seeing the field filled with plants, the young Lord’s face turned deathly pale and couldn’t help but retreat.
"I-I surrender!"
Not daring to remain on the field, choosing to surrender without a second thought, disappearing from where he was.
The entire process took less than five seconds.
"..."
Lin You looked bizarre, not expecting the forest he created to serve as a deterrent.
But it was fortunate, saving him a lot of effort.
So he simply continued to exert the Power of Rule, summoned a Violet Garden and Deep Blue Illusion Realm, finally transforming the arena into a terrifying forest no one dared to enter.
Then, the Lords witnessed a strange scene.
Each Lord randomly assigned to Lin You’s arena would take one glance around and decisively choose to surrender without hesitation.
No choice.
Those possessing Divine Fragments were ruthless individuals who had independently slain Tier Ten Demon Leaders.
Such formidable characters weren’t ones these ordinary Lords could dare to provoke.
Only fools would act.
This led to Lin You standing on the field doing nothing, effortlessly accumulating ten consecutive victories.
Then, with a system prompt, he was directly transported away from the first-floor space.
"Phew... that plague god is finally gone."
Seeing him leave, the surrounding Lords breathed a deep sigh of relief, feeling a load off their minds.
Some had been hesitant to choose a challenge since earlier, dreading that they might accidentally end up on Lin You’s arena.
Fortunately, this plague god didn’t stay too long on the first floor.
Allowing them to finally relax and resume the fiery arena battles.
...
Elsewhere.
After ascending to the second floor, Lin You faced opponents no different from those on the first floor, none being able to pose a threat to him.
Thus fighting continually and advancing, he soon reached the ninth-floor space.
This time, luck wasn’t as favorable as the previous day.
Astonishingly, among ten Lord Demons, Beast Type, Elemental Type, and Demon Type were all Flame Attributes.
Forcing him to consume more than two thousand corpses before finally passing safely, successfully reaching the tenth-floor space.
The trials on the tenth floor were different from previous levels, with little change.
Just as Lin You was transported here, a replica identical to him appeared immediately across.
Considering the last time he nearly failed using over seven thousand corpses.
This time, he directly devoured the blood gas from ten thousand corpses, elevating strength to completely suppress the replica.
Only after finally slaying it over five minutes later.
[Congratulations, you have successfully passed the tenth-floor trial.]
[You are about to be transported to the next floor, please prepare yourself.]
The familiar prompt sounded in Lin You’s mind.
He glanced at the remaining eight thousand corpses in the Origin Space, hesitated, and ultimately chose to forgo the challenge.
No choice.
With his current strength, consuming eight thousand corpses could barely win against a single replica.
Facing two at once, the chances were too slim.
Better to save these corpses for climbing the tower tomorrow.
Wait for the Power of Faith to be sufficient and strength enhanced before it’s not too late for a challenge.
[Would you like to forgo continuing the challenge?]
"Forsake."
[Congratulations, you have received rewards: Origin Crystal Core x2, Faith Force x1]
[You are about to leave the Tower Interior Space, please prepare yourself.]
...
Origin Crystal Core?
Not Rule Fragment?
Upon hearing the reward information, Lin You paused, then his eyes lit up.
An Origin Crystal Core can expand the Origin Space by 1,000 meters in range.
Although it doesn’t greatly enhance his strength, it can accommodate more corpses.
This reward came timely!
Just thinking.
He too was suddenly wrapped in light, disappearing directly from where he stood.
