My talent is 1.

Zhong Wuyai looked at Han Jin with trembling eyes. Although he didn't know what level this Martial Saint was at, he was clearly not someone he could contend with.

Even my own cheat codes are useless.

"Senior, I don't know either. I obtained it by chance. You need to be level 99 to use the law."

"This is an isolated island, so there aren't many restrictions."

With a casual grab, Han Jin held a giant octopus in his hand.

"Uh... Kraken?"

"Do you recognize this?"

"Killed him once!"

"Not bad, kid. You're only level 54, but you've already taken down a level 70 legendary boss. Try using your laws on it..."

"Laws?...I...I don't know how to use them!"

"Just use the skills related to the laws."

Zhong Wuyai looked at his own panel and saw that the Law of Annihilation was something he only acquired after his class skill was maxed out.

This book was first published on 2020s.com, providing you with a reading experience free of errors and disordered chapters.

All class skills are now passive; even Annihilation can now be triggered passively.

That means all skills are imbued with the power of laws?

Chain Lightning!

Unfortunately, with only one target, apart from Chain Lightning which is still relatively normal, the other skills are completely unrecognizable.

Whether it's the damage from the Frost Spear, the number of fireballs in a row, the duration of the Fire Rain, or the terrifying length of the Flame Wave.

None of them are normal.

Even if it's a magic missile, its release range is rather unreasonable.

Only the Chain Lightning strikes as a single bolt of lightning, and the damage and paralysis duration are normal.

If Han Jin captures a group of monsters, then we'll have to use magic missiles.

-847006-379734-15000-186640000-332960-379734-15000~！

The erosion directly wiped out nearly 200 million health points, while Kraken's health bar was around 12 billion or more.

It's normal for a level 70 legendary boss to have so much health, and Kraken is the overlord of the sea, so its massive body makes it impossible for it to have little health.

I hadn't paid attention to its health bar during the previous siege battle, but I didn't expect it to be many times higher than the Fire Dragon's health bar.

But in other respects, the Kraken is no match for the fire dragon Sacrian Nicholas.

Or perhaps it was due to the power of the laws, but Zhong Wuyai felt a sense of fear towards Kraken.

It wasn't directed at Han Jin, but at myself.

When Kraken was first captured, he looked down on Zhong Wuyai and focused all his attention on Han Jin.

But right now, Kraken has developed some fear of Zhong Wuyai.

Han Jin understood as well.

"Your laws are quite powerful, much stronger than Wengerlier's. And there's a power I've never seen before, unique to your previous world?"

"It's just luck. Not many people have gotten it yet, and I don't know how to get it either."

Since Han Jin doesn't know about the Five Elements, it's best not to say anything. He doesn't want to be left behind by Han Jin as a guinea pig, in case the Five Elements really work for him.

Zhong Wuyai didn't know what the Four Symbols would eventually evolve into, or what the final Eight Trigrams and Yin-Yang would become.

"Alright, kill this guy. Also, after you leave, no one in Guzhou can find out."

"Understood, senior."

Han Jin left directly, leaving behind a passageway.

A passage that allows direct departure from the isolated continent to the Azure Dragon Empire.

Zhong Wuyai unleashed a barrage of fireballs at Kraken, relentlessly raining down fireballs that caused Kraken's health bar to plummet.

The damage was relentless, with a constant barrage of attacks and various trigger-based damage.

Inside the mysterious space...

"Fine, I'll let you off this time."

If Zhong Wuyai were really left in the Lonely Continent, he would consider whether to intervene directly and reveal the location of the Lonely Continent to the gods.

A high-ranking god is a decent pawn, but if this pawn disrupts one's plans, it can only be discarded.

A martial saint, whose strength is at the peak of the upper gods, could evade the upper gods, but how could he possibly evade the main god? He even had to help cover it up.

"How strange! Why haven't we been able to sense the Creator God's divine will lately? The divine will avatar on the Tower of Babel has disappeared?"

After dealing with Kraken, Zhong Wuyai entered the passage and left; this place was definitely not a place to stay any longer.

The moment he entered the teleportation channel, a divine sense appeared on Zhong Wuyai's body.

"Good lad, that fireball is like a natural disaster, even Wengerlier doesn't have that kind of ability."

The figure within the mysterious space wore a displeased expression, and his primordial spirit stirred slightly.

The statue of Pala inside Zhong Wuyai's backpack flashed, and the divine sense emanating from it vanished without a trace.

Zhong Wuyai had no idea what had happened and returned to the city after coming out.

Han Jin's face was gloomy.

"I underestimated you; you actually had such hidden tricks up your sleeve."

The Martial Saint's divine sense was erased from his body in less than two seconds, and Han Jin felt humiliated.

Han Jin waved his hand, intending to grab Zhong Wuyai.

In an instant, the figure within the mysterious space moved.

"You're asking for it!"

Han Jin felt his strength vanish instantly, and his hand, which was about to grab, was severed.

"Gulp..." A sense of fear gripped my heart.

Han Jin was scared. Just what kind of backer was this kid?

It was obvious that his attack had been discovered, and the opponent was definitely much stronger than him; he had no ability to resist at all.

Is the isolated island about to be exposed?

Han Jin's soul trembled...

No, the formation on the isolated island showed no fluctuations; it was just a warning from the other side.

"I apologize for my rudeness, sir!"

Han Jin bowed in the direction of the severed hand, cold sweat already beading on his forehead.

A cold snort came from within the mysterious space, and then the primordial spirit and divine sense were withdrawn.

Han Jin felt a wave of relief wash over him and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Who exactly is Zhong Wuyai, and how could such a terrifying being be behind him...?

Zhong Wuyai had no idea that in the few seconds it took him to return from Guzhou to the Canglong Empire and then teleport back to the capital, the two had already exchanged blows with him.

I'm having dinner at a restaurant right now, and I'll take a nap while I'm at it.

So much has happened, I need to process all this shocking information and relax a bit, otherwise I'll have mental problems.

Before long, in the room where they were resting, Carrie's intimacy level began to increase rapidly, and then Kayla's...

As for Shen Mengli, I'll tell her after I take a nap.

As for the underground imperial tomb, let's remember this debt for now. Once I reach level 99 and have my own laws activated, none of those guys will survive.

Inside a castle in the isolated continent, Wengerlier was recuperating from his injuries. Although Han Jin had depleted his health bar, his injuries were all external; his soul and body were not damaged.

Wengerlier was truly wronged; he was always available whenever Han Jin called, so why did Han Jin suddenly hold a grudge against him...?

When Zhong Wuyai woke up, he felt refreshed and invigorated.

Now I understand why the emperor of the Azure Dragon Empire is hostile towards players.

Yetru Chawell, the current emperor of the Azure Dragon Empire.

This guy is also a player; he knows perfectly well how the Azure Dragon Empire came to be.

Now, the Azure Dragon Empire is most likely to be replaced by the players, so what good will it do them?

World Channel...

"Xiahou Shen, Huangfu Liancheng, Han Tong, and Gongsun Yuanshan, come quickly to the border fortress. There is important business to discuss in the center of the chaotic battlefield."

"Holy crap, is Wuyai up to something again?"

"Nonsense, we've summoned the top experts from all four empires, but who is this Han Tong?"

"Wuya, the guild leader of the Bengshan Guild, is a player from the Dragon Kingdom in the Dragon Empire. During his time in the Dragon Empire, he was responsible for contacting Xianyang Palace and Dragon Kingdom players."

"Holy crap, how do you know so much, buddy?"

"Hey, is that the important thing? The Great God Wuya has something important to discuss with us. How important is it?"

"Who knows? Let's wait and see."

"How about we go to the border fortress and join the fun?"

"Let's go as a group! Count me in!"

"Are you sick? Did you get a cerebellum wrap?"

"Go forth, the border fortress welcomes you!"

"Hahaha, none of them know their own limitations!"

"Hey... I was just saying... I'm not really going to give away merit points."

At the center of the chaotic battlefield... the Azure Dragon Empire was led by Zhong Wuyai and Shen Mengli, while the Flame Dragon Empire was led by Xiahou Shen and Huangfu Liancheng, along with a large group of underlings.

Gongsun Yuanshan came alone, while Han Tong brought two people that Zhong Wuyai had never met before.

"Xiahou Shen, tell your men to leave. Do you think this is a fight or a feast? Why did you bring so many people?"

"Huh? ~...I~~..." Xiahou Shen didn't know what to say for a moment, and waved his hand to signal the others to leave.

Huangfu Liancheng didn't leave, and Zhong Wuyai didn't care.

"Han Tong, who are those two?"

"Guild Master Wuya, I am Liu Chenglong, the guild master of Tengfei Guild."

"President Wuya, my name is Zhang Shichong. Thank you for saving me earlier. Otherwise, the people of the Dragon Kingdom in the Demon Dragon Empire would still be living in darkness."

"Guild Leader Wuya, these two are the leaders of the Dragon Kingdom players in the Demon Dragon Empire."

"President Wuya, please don't take offense. We both have SS-level talents. Unfortunately, SSS-level talents are not in our camp."

That's normal. There are only 9 SSS-level talents in total, so it's impossible for them all to be from the Dragon Kingdom. The Flame Dragon Empire has two, the Azure Dragon Empire has three, and the Holy Dragon Empire has one, all of whom are from the Dragon Kingdom, but the Demon Dragon Empire doesn't have any.

This ratio is already very high; players from other countries combined only have three.

"I won't waste any more time. What I'm about to tell you is a top secret of the fantastical world..."

Zhong Wuyai told everyone about the underground imperial tomb, but of course, he didn't mention the matter of Guzhou.

He didn't want to be casually grabbed and taken back by Han Jin, who was a Martial Saint, a being who had almost killed a lower-level god with a single slap.

The people reacted differently after hearing this.

"So, all the NPCs now were players before, and those bandits were also players before becoming NPCs, and then bandits."

"Yes, if we take over, we might become NPCs too, but the four great empires will definitely have to be replaced. The question is whether we should establish our own power afterward."

"So... will we become NPCs too?"

"It's basically certain."

"Then let's just stay players forever, and keep going like this..."

"Do you think the beings behind this fantasy world would allow it? What if they just turned into NPCs, or even bandits?"

"So what should we do?"

"It took Chester decades to become an NPC, we might be able to do it faster. The best way is to keep the level difference between everyone as small as possible. I will try to suppress the level difference. Even if we become NPCs, most players will still need to reach level 80 or above. Even if we become NPCs later, we will have a greater chance of surviving."

"Leveling up is too difficult. We are all SSS-level talents and we are only in the thirties. It would really take an ordinary player decades to reach level 80."

"The Xianyang Palace team has already started leveling up their members. The average level of the Canglong Empire's people will rise soon. But you guys are too slow."

"Guild Leader Wuya, not everyone is as freakish as you. I've been grinding levels non-stop, but I still can't match your rocket speed. In just two or three days... everyone who was in their teens or twenties is now level 50..."

That is a problem; not everyone can kill monsters of a higher level like I can.

"Guild Master Wuya, could you sell two of those pieces of equipment?"

As soon as Xiahou Shen spoke, the others looked at Zhong Wuyai with hopeful expressions.

Shen Mengli immediately sent a private message...

"Xiahou Shen and Huangfu Liancheng are alright. No matter what, they still take good care of the Dragon Kingdom players. I don't know about the others. Gongsun Yuanshan's relationship with Ferdinand is neither good nor bad. They even cooperate quite a bit. As for the Demon Dragon Empire, they were suppressed during the guild war, but now they are very united. There are only a few people with ulterior motives."

Zhong Wuyai didn't want to equip them. Many players in the Azure Dragon Empire didn't have the equipment yet, and no one in the Xianyang Palace, except for himself, had a complete set.

However, without a helping hand, their leveling speed is incredibly slow.

"Bai Xiaoniu, is there any way to form an alliance or something, and get them to come to the Azure Dragon Empire? That way, we can form a team and lead them to level up."

"Switch sides, but it's not worth it. It's like giving up the resources of an empire and then competing with even more players for those resources."

"Is this even possible?... What are the consequences of defection?"

"You'll gain an extra title of traitor, and even if you join another empire, you won't be well-received. However, joining a new power after being destroyed will have no impact."

"What if we deal with the Demon Dragon Empire first and then merge it into the Azure Dragon Empire? What would happen then?"

"There won't be any changes. Why merge the conquered forces into the Azure Dragon Empire? Just establish a new power, seize all the resources, and put out arrests for players from other factions, forcing them to develop in other empires. Wouldn't it be better for the people of the Dragon Kingdom to enjoy all the resources? Moreover, when other Dragon Kingdom players join the new power, they can use their authority to erase the title of traitor, directly eliminating the impact of switching factions."

"So, it's absolutely necessary to establish a new force?"

"Yes, it might be cruel to other players, but we have to do this if we want to preserve more players from the Dragon Kingdom."

"Won't directly unifying the fantasy world turn us into NPCs prematurely?"

"I don't know, but in our previous life, when we entered the Tower of Babel before we became NPCs, all four great empires had changed hands."

"How many have been built?"

"Five!"

"This time, we'll establish five factions. The Azure Dragon Empire will be split in two, the Flame Dragon Empire will be dealt with by Xiahou Shen, and we'll take over the Demon Dragon Empire ourselves, letting Han Tong and his group directly take control of its territories. As for the Holy Dragon Empire, we'll leave it as it is and drive all the players from other countries there. I just don't know if Gongsun Yuanshan can withstand the pressure."

"Isn't it a bit early to say that now?"

"No, we can completely conquer the Dragon Empire now!"

"Emperors are all level 98 beings, are you confident?"

"Does it possess the power of laws?"

No, not at all.

"Then I can beat them. I can wipe them out by myself."

"No, ...you're jumping the pace way too fast. The lower-level players are only around level ten, and you're already overthrowing the NPC kingdom. Have you considered how many people will permanently die during that process?"

"We can't worry about that. As long as the Dragon Kingdom players are doing well, that's all that matters. Let's support Han Tong and the others first. We don't need to worry about Xiahou Shen and Huangfu Liancheng. Apart from the people from Xianyang Palace, no one can rival them."

"What about Gongsun Yuanshan?"

"If he's indecisive, then so be it; if he's willing to sever all ties and deals with Ferdinand, then we can lend him a hand."

"You're being crazy. I suggest you talk to Lu Yingjie and the others. They're more knowledgeable in this area than you are. You're already managing a hundred-plus people in Xianyang Palace, let alone most of the players in this fantasy world."

"What the hell? Do you think I can't control myself or what?"

"You know how to manage? You just rely on throwing money and equipment at people to win them over, don't you?"

"No way, if you're so capable, you should win people over. If they listen to you, you can have them all."

"I……"

Shen Mengli was speechless for a moment. Even she herself couldn't resist this extravagant and overbearing approach to winning people over; she'd even swayed Zhong Wuyai. What about the others…?

"I don't believe you can do this to everyone!"

That would be exhausting! There are hundreds of millions of players... I'm afraid that even after becoming an NPC, I wouldn't have managed to get equipment for even one percent of the Chinese players before the next batch arrives.

"Forget it, let's give them a few items first. After we've settled things with the Demon Dragon Empire, we can let the lower-level Dragon Kingdom players from the Holy Dragon Empire and the Azure Dragon Empire develop in the Demon Dragon Empire. After all, no matter how much resources the Azure Dragon Empire has, it won't amount to much if it's divided among hundreds of millions of people. On the contrary, the Demon Dragon Empire, with only a few million people, is much richer in resources."

"So, should we deal with the Dragon Empire first?"

"Hmm, we need to prepare when we get back. Each member of the guild needs 8 pieces of 10-star equipment. Is that enough for you guys to fight against NPCs level 80 and above?"

"It's a bit risky to deal with level 80 bosses, but it's no problem to handle regular level 90 NPCs. If I had a full set of ten-star equipment, that would be absolutely fine."

"Don't even think about a ten-piece set, it'll be an eight-piece set, maybe with two more +10 enhancements at most, that's settled."

After the two finished discussing, Zhong Wuyai told the others that each person should be provided with one ten-star piece of equipment and one piece of equipment enhanced to +10.

Xiahou Shen and Huangfu Liancheng were overjoyed. Even with just one ten-star piece of equipment, they could finally stop feeling humiliated in the arena and definitely make it into the top ten.

Gongsun Yuanshan was surprised that Zhong Wuyai was so generous; it was actually possible to buy such equipment.

Han Tong and the others didn't think too much about it; they just did whatever Zhong Wuyai said, as they were there to follow orders.

"Thank you very much, President Wuyai."

Seeing Huangfu Liancheng's expression, Zhong Wuyai also thought of the arena...

But when you finally get it, will you be beaten to tears by Xianyang Palace players who all have eight pieces of ten-star equipment?

Especially Chen Wenyu, with eight pieces of ten-star equipment, could stand there and let Xiahou Shen attack him for a long time without his health bar dropping much.

Gu Yangang, the wet nurse, is even more interesting; he could easily heal Huangfu Liancheng to death.

Or perhaps we should equip Wei Xian's necromancer with gear that increases the number of skeletons he can summon, so he can summon a horde of skeletons for fun every now and then...

The more Zhong Wuyai thought about it, the more he felt that Wei Xian was like a beaver. Just imagine, Wei Xian was holding a hoe and summoning a bunch of skeletons to hammer Huangfu Liancheng. Even if you reflected the damage, it would only hit the skeletons.

Can you withstand an attack from dozens or even hundreds of skeletons?

"Alright, the central area is now set up as a trading point. We've stationed people here to guard it. Anyone who dares to attack will be eliminated immediately. We'll notify you when you have the equipment. Tell us your classes, and we'll let you know when suitable equipment becomes available."

I didn't tell anyone else about the new forces; they don't have the capability yet. I'll discuss it after I've dealt with the Demon Dragon Empire.

Shen Mengli transferred someone from Zhanfang, and the others also contacted their trusted confidants to disrupt the battlefield.

They're just microphones for passing messages between each other; you don't need to bring anything else besides food, water, and tents.

Moreover, no one dared to act recklessly here. After all, these individuals were all top-tier players from the four great empires, and this was an area designated by a fearsome figure like Zhong Wuyai…

Upon returning to the capital, Zhong Wuyai began equipping everyone with gear.

"Xiang Yang, take stock of everyone's equipment. A few ten-star items, and all the +10 enhanced equipment below level 50, don't keep them. Hand them all over to Shen Mengli."

As soon as the message was posted in the guild chat, everyone was incredibly excited.

"Boss needs equipment made. Hurry up and go to the blacksmith in the capital..."

"Sigh... Should I keep guarding this blacksmith shop?" Wei Xian was anxious. After being scolded last time, he didn't dare to leave the blacksmith shop for even half an hour. He always had to apply to Shen Mengli before leaving to do tasks.

"You can't even get a single silver item, it takes dozens of tries to get one bronze item, what the hell are you even doing?!"

"Are we still gathering herbs today?"

"Shut the hell up! Xiang Yang is in charge of the statistics, not you! Get back to your jobs. Make sure you have a list of what equipment slots are missing, and what your respective classes are too. I don't want to see a bunch of bastards like you in the capital!"

"Boss, I was wrong, I'll get back to work right away!"

"Boss, my secondary profession is alchemist. Can you make a profession-specific scythe?"

Zhong Wuyai hadn't thought of this aspect, but after Zou Shu mentioned it, he immediately understood.

The equipment for secondary professions has many functions. Wouldn't it be more useful to improve in this aspect?

"It might work if it's not bound to anything, but I haven't tried it yet. If you have it, bring it over."

"Huh?...This is possible?! I'm bound to it, holy crap..."

Wei Xian slumped, looking at Zou Shu with envy. Zou Shu had bought his sickle from an NPC.

At first, I was quite pleased with myself, thinking that my secondary job-specific equipment was better than everyone else's, and it was even bound to my character.

Now we might become the most useless one...
