The "Survival on the Train" game has bugs, it's really laggy!

rule!

When Su Yuan saw those two words, he felt as if his brain had been struck by lightning, buzzing loudly.

He had already deeply experienced the terror of the power of "rules" when he fought that projection of the evil god.

That was a force that was completely unreasonable.

The evil god said, "Your heart will turn into a balloon and burst."

Then, his heart started to swell uncontrollably, and he almost died on the spot.

If it weren't for the "Evolution" talent protecting him at the last moment, he would already be a corpse.

That kind of power that disregards the laws of physics and directly obliterates things at the conceptual level left a very deep impression on Su Yuan.

Su Yuan wondered when he would be able to possess such power to make his words come true.

Unexpectedly, the answer came so quickly.

The effect of "Return to One" points him to the ultimate path to "God"!

He evolved countless abilities, then integrated them into one, tracing back to the source, and ultimately forged his own unique "rules"!

At that time, he will be a god!

"call……"

Su Yuan let out a long breath, the excitement and shock in his chest lingering for a long time.

He felt as if he had pushed open the door to a new world and seen a magnificent and unprecedented landscape.

In the past, although he was very strong, he was still within the realm of "mortals," pursuing nothing more than a stronger physique, faster speed, and more powerful combat skills.

But now, he sees hope for transcendence.

Just like what the Treasure Guardian Spirit said before, Su Yuan doesn't know what abilities those with the Pain Sequence will ultimately gain by feeling power through pain.

And much more...

However, the most urgent task is to figure out how to use this brand-new mythical talent.

Su Yuan turned his gaze back to the storage space of his bracelet.

There, lying quietly, lies one of the greatest spoils of this battle.

The unique quality talent core that was dropped from Sequence 8 "The Clown"—[The Playwright's Gift].

Following his previous approach, he would definitely not hesitate to find an opportunity to stitch this powerful illusion and manipulation talent into himself.

After all, a unique talent is something that can only be encountered by chance.

But now, he has a better option.

"Infinite Devouring!"

Su Yuan looked at the crystal core that emitted an alluring light and silently recited a prayer in his heart.

He wanted to test how many "evolution points" this thing could give him.

[A unique quality talent crystal core, "The Playwright's Gift," has been detected. Dominate it?]

"Devour!"

Su Yuan did not hesitate at all.

As soon as he finished speaking, the crystal core flew out of his storage bracelet and hovered in his palm.

The next second, an irresistible suction force suddenly burst forth from his palm!

The incredibly hard crystal core was as if it had encountered a super-powerful crusher. With a series of crisp "crackling" sounds, it was forcibly broken down into its most primitive energy light points, which then transformed into a dazzling stream of light and was completely absorbed into Su Yuan's palm!

boom!

An unimaginably massive torrent of information exploded in his mind in an instant!

Countless principles governing illusion, scriptwriting techniques, methods of emotional manipulation, and techniques for controlling people's minds...

All the understanding of "drama" that originally belonged to the evil god "playwright of pleasure" was now transformed into the purest knowledge and forcibly instilled into Su Yuan's mind!

"Well……"

Su Yuan felt like his head was about to explode; the feeling was no better than when he was invaded by the will of the evil god.

He endured the intense mental shock, gritting his teeth and desperately trying to digest this vast amount of knowledge.

At the same time, the system notification sound arrived as expected.

[Successfully devoured!]

Congratulations! You have received 10000 Evolution Points!

10,000 points!

Upon seeing this number, Su Yuan almost burst out laughing.

As expected of a unique quality talent core, the "experience points" it provides are truly generous!

With this initial capital of 10,000 points, he can begin his own path of "self-evolution".

However, he needed some time to process the extra knowledge in his mind before he could begin.

Su Yuan sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and began to sort out his knowledge about the methods of "drama".

He discovered that the so-called "playwright of pleasure" was indeed a genius.

It took the concept of "drama" to its extreme.

In its understanding, the whole world is a giant stage.

All living beings are actors.

And it is the sole director and screenwriter.

It can assign different "roles" to actors by writing different "scripts" and manipulate them to perform scenes of joy and sorrow.

It can even construct a completely fake "illusion theater," pulling enemies into it and leading them step by step to their demise within its pre-set script.

Just like what Su Yuan experienced before.

"Skillful illusions are never simply about creating illusions, but about blurring the lines between reality and illusion, making it impossible for you to distinguish between the two."

As Su Yuan digested the knowledge, he couldn't help but feel a sense of wonder.

He recalled the experience of being tricked by that clown sequencer, and felt a lingering fear.

Although he possesses a terrifying perception score as high as 129.3, he still seems somewhat powerless when faced with illusions and deceptions that are almost at the level of rules.

If he hadn't forced himself to unleash his full power at the last moment, breaking through his opponent's "theatre" with absolute force, the outcome would have been very difficult to predict.

"No, I need to get myself a 'discerning' ability first."

Su Yuan quickly identified his first goal: "self-evolution".

He now possesses immense power, but he is still too passive when facing those bizarre rule-based abilities.

He needs a pair of eyes that can see through all illusions!

Only in this way can he remain invincible in future battles!

With a clear goal in mind, Su Yuan no longer hesitated.

He immersed his consciousness into the newly acquired "evolution points" system.

Su Yuan's consciousness entered a peculiar space.

There was nothingness here, except for a simple and clear semi-transparent panel floating in front of you.

On the panel, there was only one prominent number.

Evolution Point: 10000

Below the numbers are grayed-out ability icons that are locked.

These icons are all-encompassing.

There are icons representing power like a fist, lightning like lightning like speed, flame like fire, and even more abstract concepts like an hourglass and a Rubik's Cube like time and space.

Su Yuan knew that these were the directions in which he could "evolve" in the future.

As long as he has enough evolution points and a certain depth of understanding of the ability, he can light up these icons and allow his body to evolve corresponding new abilities.

"Depth of understanding..."

Su Yuan looked at these icons and pondered them.

He had just devoured the "Playwright's Gift," gaining a vast amount of knowledge about illusion, manipulation, and other related topics.

Logically speaking, his understanding of "illusion" should be the deepest right now.

He tried to focus his consciousness on the eye icon that represented "illusion".

Sure enough, the originally gray icon began to light up slightly, emitting a faint purple glow.

A new notification immediately popped up on the panel.

[It has been detected that your understanding of the "Illusion" realm has reached the "Mastery" level, fulfilling the prerequisite for "Self-Evolution".]

[Do you wish to consume evolution points to evolve your ability?]

【Evolutionary Path 1: Illusion Weaving (Consumes 3000 Evolution Points, can evolve to the ability to construct basic illusions)】

[Evolutionary Path Two: Emotional Influence (Consumes 3000 Evolution Points, can evolve into the ability to influence the emotions of others through mental fluctuations)]

[Evolutionary Direction 3: Real Deception (Consumes 5000 Evolution Points, can evolve the ability to distort others' senses and create a false reality)]

……

The panel listed seven or eight different evolutionary paths, each corresponding to a core ability in the "Drama" pathway.

Looking at these options, Su Yuan felt a surge of excitement.

Any one of these abilities would be enough to transform an ordinary player.

But he was not blinded by these tempting options.

He knew very well that what he needed most right now was not the ability to create illusions, but... the ability to break illusions!

What he wants is not to become another "playwright", but to become the nemesis of all "playwrights"!

"Does it have abilities like 'dispelling illusions' or 'anti-illusion techniques'?"

Su Yuan asked the panel in his mind.

The panel seemed to understand his intention, and the options on it changed instantly.

[Evolutionary intent detected: "Dispelling Illusion"]

[Based on your knowledge and physical potential, we are currently deducing the optimal solution...]

[Deduction complete!]

[Evolutionary Direction: Eye of Truth (Unique)]

[Evolutionary Requirements: 5000 Evolution Points]

[Ability Description: Evolved eyes capable of seeing through all illusions and discerning the true nature of things. Possesses extremely high immunity to illusions and deception at the rule level, and can analyze the energy composition and soul fluctuations of a target.]

[Note: When you see the "truth" of the world, will you still be yourself?]

"The Eye of Truth!"

Su Yuan's eyes lit up instantly when he saw the name and description.

This is it!

This ability was tailor-made for him!

See through illusion, understand the essence, transcend illusion, and analyze energy!

This is practically the father of illusion-type abilities!

With these eyes, he would no longer have to worry about being tricked by the illusions of an opponent like "The Joker" when he encountered one in the future.

He can even see through the opponent's energy composition and soul fluctuations, find the opponent's true location, and kill them with one blow!

Although the cost of 5000 evolution points was a bit high, directly consuming half of his savings, Su Yuan felt that this investment was absolutely worthwhile!

"I've chosen you!"

Su Yuan no longer hesitated and confirmed the evolution in his mind.

"Consume 5000 Evolution Points to evolve 'Eye of Truth'!"

[Command confirmed!]

[Undergoing "self-evolution"...]

boom!

The instant he confirmed it, a massive surge of energy erupted from the empty panel and instantly flooded his entire body!

At the same time, Su Yuan's physical body also underwent drastic changes.

He felt as if his eyes had been thrown into a red-hot iron furnace, an unbearable burning and stinging sensation coming from deep within his eyeballs, instantly engulfing his entire brain!

"what!"

Even with Su Yuan's current willpower, he couldn't help but let out a painful groan.

He felt his eyeballs being forcibly disintegrated and reassembled by an invisible force!

Every cell and every nerve inside the eyeball is undergoing the deepest transformation by that enormous energy.

Before Su Yuan's eyes, everything was blood red.

He felt his vision rapidly disappearing, and the whole world becoming blurry.

But he didn't panic.

Because he could clearly feel a brand new, more powerful force being conceived and born in his eyes!

This process lasted for about ten seconds.

As the burning and stinging sensation gradually subsided and transformed into a warm and refreshing feeling, Su Yuan knew that the evolution had succeeded!

He slowly opened his eyes.

In that instant, the whole world seemed different to him.

In the previously empty air, he saw countless colorful energy threads intertwining and flowing.

He saw the remaining black energy on the ground and walls, belonging to the projection of the evil god, filled with chaos and madness.

He could even see the surging, vibrant, golden bio-energy within his own body.

The whole world seemed to have been stripped of its false veil, revealing its most authentic and essential side to him.

Su Yuan walked to a fairly intact mirror and looked at himself in it.

His eyes in the mirror had undergone a noticeable change.

His pupils, which were originally pitch black, had now turned into a deep, molten gold!

Deep within those golden pupils, countless stars seemed to be born and die, revolving, radiating an all-knowing majesty that made one dare not look directly at them.

【ding dong——】

Congratulations! You have successfully evolved a brand new ability: The Eye of Truth (Unique)!

"Is this... the Eye of Truth?"

Su Yuan looked at his golden eyes in the mirror and was filled with shock.

He could sense that those eyes contained unimaginable power.

He tried to push the power of the "Eye of Truth" to its limit.

hum!

The world he saw had changed once again.

This time, what he saw was no longer a simple flow of energy.

He saw the "rules".

He saw that there were invisible "lines" in the air, made up of countless tiny runes, maintaining the stability of this space.

He saw that the ground beneath his feet was solid because it was bound by a line of rules representing "solidity".

He saw that the chandelier in the distance, which was still swaying, was glowing because it was connected by a line of rules representing "light".

These are the "codes" that make up the most basic layer of this world!

"I see……"

Su Yuan suddenly understood.

The so-called illusion, the so-called "theatre," to put it simply, is to use one's own power to distort, cover up, and rewrite these "codes" to create a false world.

His "eye of truth" can see through these modified "codes," find their flaws, and even restore them completely!

However, even if ordinary people knew this, there was nothing they could do, because they lacked the talent for evolution and were unable to precisely control their own power.

Only those who are Sequencers can be considered Sequencers, and if Su Yuan is considered a Sequencer, then he should be one of the strongest Sequencers, with one of the highest potential.

"Now, who can play illusions in front of me?"

Su Yuan's lips curled up slightly, his heart filled with strong confidence.

With these eyes, he will be the nemesis of all flashy and gaudy things!

However, he also found that using this deep insight for extended periods of time was extremely mentally taxing.

After watching for only a few seconds, he felt waves of fatigue washing over him.

With a thought, Su Yuan withdrew his power.

The golden light in his eyes gradually faded, returning to its normal black.

The world around us returned to its original state.

"It seems this ability can't be used carelessly; it has to be a trump card."

Su Yuan gave himself a mental reminder.

After evolving his new abilities, Su Yuan felt that his strength had reached a new level.

But he was not satisfied with that.

He knew that his gains this time would go far beyond this.

"While evolutionary talent is amazing, allowing one to evolve on their own, it doesn't mean that 'perfect stitching' is useless."

Su Yuan stroked his chin, pondering in his mind.

While "self-evolution" is powerful, its limitations are also obvious.

First, it requires consuming a large number of evolution points; second, it requires a sufficient understanding of the ability.

"Perfect stitching," on the other hand, does not have these limitations.

Given the right "materials," he can directly sew the entries onto the items—simple, direct, and effective.

Especially for enhancing equipment and items, the advantage of "perfect stitching" is irreplaceable by "self-evolution".

"We've amassed quite a few treasure chests this time. Now it's time to see if we can create a golden treasure chest, or even... a treasure chest above a golden one!"

Thinking of this, Su Yuan felt a surge of excitement in his heart.

He immediately returned to his train.
