Survival for All: I can deconstruct projections and synthesize everything.

Lin Xiao gripped the rusty scythe tightly, and with a swift movement, he appeared beside the hunter Bai Ershiyi, raising the scythe to chop down towards his neck.

"when!"

A water sword materialized in Bai Ershiyi's hand; however, the water sword, which should have been soft, became incredibly hard, blocking Lin Xiao's rusty scythe.

Bai Ershiyi forcefully pushed Lin Xiao away, then pointed his right hand at Lin Xiao as if it were a gun.

"biu~"

A drop of water with extremely penetrating power shot out from his fingertip, and Lin Xiao flicked his finger, sending out a hidden mine enhanced by the Universal Divine Art.

"boom!"

The water bullet penetrated the hidden booby trap, thus causing the trap to explode. The explosion covered almost the entire space above the fog.

The scare rule of hidden booby traps immediately affected the supervisor, Bai Ershiyi.

Bai Ershiyi's body stiffened instantly, and a hint of panic could be seen in his pupils.

This time, Lin Xiao appeared beside Bai Ershiyi again, raised his rusty scythe, and killed the hunter Bai Ershiyi.

After killing the hunter Bai Ershiyi, the Fog System, which had not given any notifications for a long time, suddenly beeped.

[Ding! Killed the hunter Bai Twenty-One. Multiplier rule activated. Randomizing in progress. Upon completion, the power of the rule will be increased by 5 times.]

Before Lin Xiao could even guess what the message meant, Bai Qi arrived at Lin Xiao's side.

Then, at Lin Xiao's instruction, Bai Qi absorbed the fallen territory crystal.

"Huh? My lord, the power of the rules in this territory crystal I absorbed seems to be about five times stronger than the others!"

As Bai Qi spoke, he made a gun-like gesture with his hand, and a drop of water with even greater penetrating power shot out from Bai Qi's fingertip.

"Just as I thought!" Lin Xiao thought to himself.

Seeing that Lin Xiao didn't reply to him, but just waved at him, Bai Qi understood and left.

"As expected, this so-called multiplier rule is just as I imagined, and what I didn't expect was that the multiplier rule could actually affect the rules held by other supervisors!"

Lin Xiao raised the sickle in his hand and examined it carefully.

Lin Xiao was very satisfied with the scythe's effect. He never expected that a zero-tier item would have a comeback.

In the following period, Lin Xiao used the same trick again and gained four more territories.

Lin Xiao's territory is now located in the very center of the nine-square grid.

The drop of the remaining four territories also reinforced the rules significantly.

The multipliers were 2x, 6x, 5x, and 10x in that order. Perhaps it was just Lin Xiao's luck, but there wasn't a single multiplier above 10x between 0 and 100x.

But after so many times, Bai Qi's strength has indeed increased even more.

The rule that grants a 10x boost is related to movement speed. At Bai Qi's current speed, he can run back and forth from east to west across the territory more than a dozen times in one second.

With the surrounding territories acting as a buffer, Lin Xiao's territory was much safer.

But now a new problem has arisen. The territory has expanded so much, but the number of creatures within it is very small. Apart from Lin Xiao and the creatures he projected, there are only the 2000-plus members of the Grass Spirit Clan.

After thinking for a while, Lin Xiao approached the Grand Elder and asked him if he had any allied clans in the Wood Soul Domain.

After pondering for a moment, the elder shook his head, indicating that their Grass Spirit Clan was basically isolated from the world in the Wood Soul Domain. Apart from some conflicts with the Vine Spirit Clan, they didn't know much about other races.

Helpless, Lin Xiao had no choice but to wait until next month when he would personally go to the Wood Soul Domain again.

That night, perhaps because Lin Xiao had advanced to the fourth rank, or perhaps because a month had passed, the Misty World underwent another change.

Similarly, Lin Xiao only learned of this change on the second day through the world chat channel.

Liu Ruyan: "Brothers and sisters, have any overseers come looking for you in your territories?"

Shen Zhi: "Yes!"

Sui Tang: "Just last night, someone claiming to be a regulator contacted me!"

Ding Yi: "To be honest, this is the first time I've ever heard of the existence of a hunter!"

Ding Yi's words were echoed by many people. It seemed that almost everyone was learning for the first time that there were supervisors in the Misty World, or rather, in their territory.

Sui Tang: "It seems the regulators told us the same thing!"

Sikong Xinyou: "It probably refers to killing the hunters in other territories to increase the size of your own territory!"

"Yes!" the people in the regional channel echoed in unison.

As Lin Xiao was looking at the chat messages in the regional chat channel, Bai Qi's figure suddenly appeared in front of Lin Xiao.

"My lord, last night, a voice entered my mind, urging me to speak to you about expanding the territory!"

Lin Xiao looked at Bai Qi and nodded: "I already know."

Lin Xiao then asked, "Is this information mandatory? Are the regulators obligated to tell us, or are they allowed to withhold information from us, or even conceal certain details from us?"

After careful consideration, Bai Qi said, "It should be possible to tell you, lord, some things. For example, I can only tell you about expanding the territory, but I can choose to keep the fact that absorbing the territory crystals can enhance my strength a secret!"

Although he didn't know why the original hunter in Lin Xiao's territory could tell him in advance, Lin Xiao also knew that even if the hunter was only telling him now, he would still hide some important things, just like before.

Lin Xiao nodded and then looked at the regional chat channel.

Liu Ruyan: "But according to the supervisors, all the other supervisors are also at the fourth tier. Unless we also reach the fourth tier, we might not be able to compete with them, otherwise..."

Liu Ruyan didn't say what came next, but the other survivors knew, otherwise... they would have been the ones to die.

After a moment of silence in the regional chat channel, Ding Yi suddenly spoke up: "Hey, I have an idea! Why don't we go ask Lin Xiao, who's currently ranked number one in the fourth tier, where he is?"

Ding Yi's words immediately broke the silence, and also made Shen Zhi, Liu Ruyan, and the other top 10 in the regional rankings light up.

Liu Ruyan: "Good idea, Ding Yi. Brother Sikong Xinyou, do you know if you can get in touch with Boss Lin Xiao?"
