A golden beam of light poured into the depths of her consciousness, and Shen Xi felt a sharp pain in her eyes, as if something was taking root and sprouting deep within her eyeballs.

The pain came quickly and went away even faster.

In just a few seconds, everything returned to calm.

Shen Xi blinked, and the world before her eyes... had changed.

[Congratulations, host, on obtaining the second Dominator bonus: All-Seeing Eye (Tier 1/Origin Level/Upgradable)]

[Effect 1: True Sight - Allows complete viewing of detailed information for any target (including but not limited to players, NPCs, and special units), including: title, class, attributes, talents, skills, equipment, and equipment attributes. Ignores any hidden skills, equipment, and item effects.]

[Effect Two: Insight – Can detect the level, skills, attributes, and weaknesses of all non-human units (corpses, mutated creatures, alien species, monsters, etc.). This effect takes precedence over the basic detection rules of the post-apocalyptic game and can resolve unknown information that was originally displayed as "???".]

[Currently locked area: The host himself/herself.]

Growth conditions: Unknown.

Shen Xi stared at the line of text, her pupils slightly contracting.

To have a clear understanding of all things.

This name... it doesn't seem very useful, but it seems to have some meaning.

The built-in detection function in the post-apocalyptic game can indeed view the level and basic attributes of ordinary corpses, but the information becomes blurry when encountering elites or higher. Like the ghost child we encountered before, it was all question marks; we couldn't see a single thing.

But this...

"weakness?"

Shen Xi murmured to herself, a smile slowly creeping onto her lips.

What kind of god-like ability is this?

"Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated." Everyone says this, but how many can truly do it? Now, no matter what the opponent is, he can see right through them. Attributes, skills, equipment, talents... even weaknesses!

This isn't a battle.

This is practically an open-book exam!

Shen Xi stood up, her gaze piercing through the darkness outside the window.

With this ability, the deathmatch arena becomes his paradise.

He pushed open the window and jumped out.

In the darkness, the Bone Nightmare Boots landed silently.

Shen Xi stood on the open ground east of the cold storage, her gaze sweeping over the surroundings. The ruins appeared particularly eerie under the moonlight, and the figures of writhing, decaying corpses could be vaguely seen among the crumbling walls. Occasionally, roars echoed from afar, rising and falling.

He took a deep breath, and with a slight thought, his all-seeing insight instantly activated!

The world has changed in my field of vision.

Those previously blurry outlines were now all marked by semi-transparent light screens. Above each corpse's head floated a detailed information panel...

[Common Corpse (Level 3)]

Strength: 18, Spirit: 5, Agility: 12, Constitution: 20

[Skill: Bite]

Weaknesses: Head (damage taken +50%), Neck (instant kill chance +30%), Vulnerable to fire.

[Common Corpse (Level 2)]

Strength: 15, Spirit: 4, Agility: 10, Constitution: 16

[Skills: None]

[Weaknesses: Head (damage taken +50%), Slow movement (can be kited using speed advantage)]

Shen Xi raised an eyebrow slightly.

It's definitely different now.

Previously, when looking at corpses, you could only see their level and attributes; now you can even see their skills. More importantly, there's that "weakness" section…

Head damage taken +50%, neck has a chance to be fatal in one hit.

This kind of information, which normally requires countless battles to uncover, is now right in front of you.

"interesting."

Overwhelmed with excitement, Shen Xi'an stepped forward.

Instead of rushing to find Mingying, he headed towards the nearest elite corpse.

Because he needed to test how well this all-knowing person actually performed in real combat.

It was an elite zombie perched at the entrance of the east warehouse, a size larger than a normal corpse. Its arms had mutated into enormous bone blades, gleaming coldly in the moonlight. Seven or eight human corpses lay around it, clearly indicating that it had killed quite a few players.

As the distance drew closer, reaching ten meters, the ability to perceive all things was automatically triggered…

[Corpse Reaper - Bone Blade Reaper (Level 8 Elite)]

Strength: 52, Spirit: 28, Agility: 41, Constitution: 45

[Talent: Bone Blade Enhancement (Silver Grade) - Increases the hardness of both arm bone blades by 50%, and inflicts a tearing effect on attacks]

[Skills: 1. Cross Slash (Bronze) - Cross arms strike, dealing 170% damage to enemies within 3 meters in front, 12-second cooldown; 2. Bone Blade Thrust (Bronze) - Bone arms thrust together, dealing 200% damage to a single target, 20-second cooldown; 3. Harvest Whirlwind (Silver) - Spin the body, slicing all surrounding enemies with bone blades, lasting 3 seconds, 40-second cooldown]

[Weaknesses: Joints (shoulder joint defense -30%, hit reduces attack efficiency), slow recovery after losing balance, -20% fire resistance]

Shen Xi couldn't help but laugh after reading it.

52 points of Strength, 41 points of Agility, 45 points of Constitution.

Previously, this attribute might have required some effort on his part. But now...

He looked down at his attribute panel.

Strength: 79, Agility: 71, Constitution: 71

With the added bonus from the Open Heaven profession, the constitution directly exceeds 100, and all skill cooldowns are halved and effects are doubled.

This elite is like a little brother in front of him.

"Try out a new skill."

Shen Xi strode forward, making no attempt to hide her intentions.

The bone-bladed reaper sensed him instantly, its murky eyes locking onto him, and it let out a low growl. It spread its bone blades and charged forward with heavy steps!

The speed was not slow, but in Shen Xi's eyes, it was full of flaws.

"They're here!"

The Bone Blade Reaper rushed within ten meters, crossed its arms, and prepared to unleash a cross slash!

Bloodthirsty charge!

The ten-meter distance was instantly reduced!

The speed generated by 71 points of Agility was so fast that it didn't even leave a afterimage!

The next chapter is even more exciting: Chapter 55, the second Dominator bonus, we look forward to your visit.

Shen Xi appeared in front of the Bone Blade Reaper, not from the front, but from the side!

The Bone-Corroding Battle Axe swept across, heading straight for the pale red dot of light!

"Snap!"

The axe blade precisely cleaved into the shoulder joint!

Black blood spurted out!

The Bone Blade Reaper's right arm was severed with a snap, and the massive bone blade flew off along with half of the arm!

"roar!!!"

It let out a piercing scream and swung its left arm wildly!

But Shen Xi had already circled around behind it.

Whirlwind Triple Slash!

First lap! A swift axe strike severed his left leg!

Second lap! Sever the right leg!

The third lap! Heading straight for the neck!

"Snap!"

Heads flew off, and black blood gushed out like a fountain!

The massive body crashed to the ground!

[Slaying a Level 8 Elite Corpse "Bone Blade Reaper" x1, gaining 85 experience points!]

The orb of light that burst from the Bone Blade Reaper was immediately retrieved by the All Things Return to the Treasury.

Shen Xi put away his axe and stood up, glancing at the storage space.

Gold Coins +35

[Equipment Obtained: Bone Blade Ring (Bronze Grade)]

He took out the ring...

It is entirely grayish-white, made from some kind of bone, with a small bone blade inlaid on the ring face.

【Name: Bone Blade Ring】

【Type: Jewelry - Ring】

[Quality: Bronze]

[Effect: Strength +2]

[Special Effect: Harvest - After defeating an enemy, the next attack deals +10% damage (stacks up to 3 times, lasts 10 seconds)]

[Note: Wearing this will make your next attack even more lethal with every kill you get.]

Shen Xi raised an eyebrow slightly.

Strength +2, plus a damage-stacking effect?

nice one.

He simply put the ring on his hand.

Strength: 73 + 8 = 81

81 points of strength.

The King of Newcomers added three points, the Bracelet of Strength added three points, and now the Bone Blade Ring has added two more points, for a total of eight points of Strength.

Shen Xi clenched her fist, feeling the surging power within her, and revealed a satisfied smile.

The combination of "Insight into All Things" and the "Creator" profession is simply amazing.

Know the weakness, then strike a fatal blow.

Clean and efficient, without any unnecessary delays.

"It's time to go find Mingying."

Shen Xi put away the Corrupted Bone Battle Axe, activated the Insight of All Things, and began to traverse the nest.

……

All the way north.

With a vision that sees through everything, countless pieces of information flood in like a tide.

Ordinary rotting corpse, ignore it.

Elite corpse, killed it casually.

The leader? Haven't met him yet.

Shen Xi fought his way through, and the gold coins and supplies in his storage space increased wildly. Everything was automatically picked up from the storage, so he only needed to focus on killing enemies and didn't need to worry about anything else.

[Kill 3 level 4 rotting corpses, experience points +27, gold coins +45, resource cards x2]

[Kill 1 level 5 elite corpse, experience +45, gold +80, obtain equipment: Bone Bracers (Bronze)]

[Kill 6 level 3 rotting corpses, experience points +42, gold coins +90, resource cards x5]

[Killed...]

The system is displaying a message indicating excessive screen refresh.

Shen Xi didn't even bother to look, mechanically wielding the Corrupted Bone Battle Axe, cutting his way north.

Finally, after passing through an abandoned processing area, a familiar name appeared in the all-encompassing view...

【Mingying (Level 9)】

[Current Status: In combat, HP 37%, stamina severely depleted]

Shen Xi's eyes sharpened.

He pushed off with his feet and his figure shot out like lightning!

……

Freezer compartment number 3.

The iron gate was half open, and faint moonlight shone through the crack.

Shen Xi rushed to the door and peered through the crack...

The freezer was small, about fifty square meters. The walls were covered in frost, the overhead pipes were broken, and long icicles hung from the dangling iron pipes. Countless broken freezers were scattered on the floor, along with rotting corpses lying haphazardly.

Inside, Mingying leaned against the corner of the wall, covered in blood.

He gripped two bone-bladed swords in both hands, the blades stained with black blood, but the edges were already chipped. His chest, abdomen, and thighs were covered in wounds, the deepest of which ran from his left shoulder all the way to his waist, the flesh torn open, revealing the white bone beneath.

His breathing was rapid and heavy, each breath accompanied by bloody foam.

But he did not fall.

He just stared intently ahead, his deep eyes still burning with the flame of obsession.

And in front of him...

There were thirty-seven rotting corpses!

The freezer was packed with them, filling half of it! At the front were five elites, followed by thirty-two ordinary corpses! They were piled up layer upon layer, completely surrounding Mingying!

The most terrifying thing is that among those five elites, there was one level 8 [Frost Ripper], two level 7 [Bone Blade Butchers], and two level 6 [Corpse Berserkers]!

With this lineup, let alone a level 9 Mingying, even three level 9 players would be defeated!

But Mingying pulled through.

He's held on until now, with only 37% of his health remaining and his strength severely depleted, but he's still alive.

Shen Xi stood at the door, looking at the blood-covered figure, and remained silent for a moment.

Then he smiled.

"Mingying".

He spoke, his voice not loud, but it was exceptionally clear in the deathly silent freezer.

All the rotting corpses turned their heads in unison!

Mingying also raised her head and looked towards the doorway.

When he saw the figure clearly, a flicker of emotion appeared in his deep eyes for the first time.

Within those fluctuations, there was surprise, relief, and also a trace of... grievance?
