Lucky billion players, you've never seen one before / I can accumulate my own luck

Just as she was thinking about what information she should leave behind, Fan Xiao suddenly said, "I'm more suited to use this method. I have an item that can stack attacks. If I spend some time accumulating energy, I can definitely leave an indelible mark in Hell for a short period of time."

"Moreover, in each cycle, as soon as I leave the lobby where the players are and come out onto the street, I am immediately swallowed into hell."

"In other words, I'll definitely be the first person to access the remaining information. And you..."

After a brief pause, he continued, "You entered Hell too late. Even if you manage to leave your information, it might only benefit other players."

"It's not a good thing to let other players know about reincarnation too early."

“I’ve said before that they are not trustworthy. If they know that the numbers on the back of the hand represent the number of reincarnations… our two camps will likely face a bloody battle before we can cooperate.”

"You must take the initiative into your own hands."

The hooded girl remained noncommittal.

But Fan Xiao could tell that she didn't intend to listen to his advice.

She probably believed that even if the two sides fought, she would be the one to win in the end.

They're quite arrogant.

Fan Xiao smiled and suggested, "How about this, you tell me one of your secrets, and I will pass it on to my next reincarnation as part of the remaining information... well, if we fail in this reincarnation."

"When we meet again in the next cycle of reincarnation after I've read the message, I will tell you the secret in person, and then... you will start to trust me unconditionally, which will save a lot of time."

"how?"

"Why should I trust you?" the hooded girl asked, frowning.

Fan Xiao pointed to the ground beneath his feet, which began to tremble: "Look at this commotion, those awakened monsters are probably arriving soon."

"If you want to leave a message, you can only do it now. In such a short time... are you sure you can create a trace that can be preserved until the next cycle of reincarnation?"

"You can?" the hooded girl asked in return.

Fan Xiao grinned and said, "I have a spatial artifact. I'll hide in another space to accumulate energy, and then unleash my ultimate move when I've accumulated enough."

"Furthermore... in order to prevent Hell from encroaching on the outside world to an even greater extent, I will lure the monsters to other places, away from the entrance and exit."

"So if you stay in hell, you'll only cause me trouble."

"..."

The hooded girl said coldly, "I'll tell you after we get out."

"can."

Fan Xiao nodded.

The two immediately separated.

The hooded girl leaped into the white light and returned to the outside world.

Fan Xiao then used the "Mirror" to teleport away from the safe zone at the entrance and exit, leading the monster army in another direction.

He then entered the world within the mirror and began to bleed himself continuously.

……

Ultimately, Fan Xiao only stayed in the mirror world for 20 minutes before feeling his mental state begin to decline.

He immediately put all the blood he released into "Nana's Suitcase," then teleported out of the mirror to check on the condition of Hell.

"Um……?"

He had only been there for less than three seconds when he looked up and around and felt an itchy sensation all over his body.

The surroundings were already teeming with countless awakened monsters, the entire hellish space was in turmoil, and the aberration and pollution had penetrated into every inch of the air.

Fan Xiao's expression changed, and he immediately fled back to the mirror world. He then transformed into bats using the "Blood Duke," leaving his mutated flesh and blood behind. He then regenerated his body.

"Hell is indeed not a place to stay for long, otherwise a real crisis will descend. This level of distortion and pollution... no wonder I couldn't survive in the last reincarnation."

Realizing the gravity of the situation, he immediately teleported multiple times, quickly arriving at the entrance to hell, leaping into the white light, and returning to the outside world.

Once his feet were on the ground, he brought up the player panel and checked the time.

It's already 3:03 PM.

When he entered Hell, it was 7 PM last night. He hadn't been in Hell for long, but almost a whole day had passed outside... The 15x time flow is truly terrifying!

"It took nearly half an hour to clear out the monsters, nearly half an hour to search for clues, and 20 minutes to collect blood... It's about time."

"So, the time my junior sister returned to the outside world... was 10:00 AM? The other players... should have returned around 2:00 AM."

As Fan Xiao calculated the time, he looked in the direction of Longxi Village.

At the same time, he took out several bottles of Grade C mental recovery potions from his storage space and drank them all at once.

There was no sign of my junior sister around the lighthouse.

"They must have gone to that riverside cabin ahead of time."

Feeling his spirits slowly returning, Fan Xiao pondered for a few seconds before heading towards Longxi Village.

Before heading to the riverside cabin, he had some questions he wanted to ask the inhabitants of this world.

As for why he didn't just ask the twin sisters... he was worried that Carmen, the Demon King, was also at the cabin, and he wouldn't have a chance to ask her.

Traveling at full speed, Fan Xiao arrived at the outskirts of Longxi Village in less than two minutes.

To avoid revealing his extraordinary physical abilities to the villagers and attracting the attention of the true King Caesar, he began to suppress his power and disguise himself as an ordinary person.

The villagers of Longxi Village were not surprised by the sudden arrival of the mercenaries.

The inhabitants of this world seem to have become accustomed to the existence of mercenaries—or rather, they don't see mercenaries at all; they are just invisible people. They only give some basic reactions because of their "fixed perceptions."

Fan Xiao walked around the village but didn't find any other players.

He guessed that this group of people had either gone to Silver City or Obsidian City to gather intelligence, or they had mustered up their courage and gone to the territory of the Demon Race, attempting to interrogate a high-ranking Demon Race member for information.

Comparing the two, the areas with a high concentration of humans are actually more dangerous.

Any slight disturbance between the players... or rather, the mercenaries and ordinary humans could potentially attract the attention of the true King Caesar.

"This dungeon is far too dangerous and difficult for them... Could it be some kind of nightmare-level C-rank dungeon?"

Fan Xiao suddenly had this idea.

Since there are C-level players like him who are considered to be breaking the rules in the evolution game.

So, within the same level, are there also some dungeons that are considered unfair?

His "Fairy Tale Town"... seems to fall into this category.

Although the dungeon is only a D-level instance, if he wanted to, even multiple B-level players would be wiped out inside.

"Besides letting me meet my junior sister, is there some other deeper meaning behind Tina giving me this ticket to the dungeon?"

For some reason, Fan Xiao thought of the first train ticket Tina gave him—the dungeon corresponding to that ticket made him realize that he was an S-class psionic potential user.

He had thought the second ticket was only for meeting his junior sister, but now that it seems so difficult, could there be some unexpected gains?

"Alright, let's get down to business first..." Fan Xiao gathered his scattered thoughts and asked the surrounding villagers who the most learned person in the village was. After searching for a while, he finally arrived at the door of a house on the south side and knocked on the door.

After the door opened, an elderly man with his hair slicked back and wearing a long robe appeared before Fan Xiao.

"Mercenaries?" The old man nodded and asked, "Is there something you need?"

“To prevent the world from being destroyed, to safeguard world peace…” Fan Xiao said, “In short, I need to ask you a few questions.”

“Hmm,” the old man said without suspicion, “Go ahead and ask.”

"The Grave of Guilt..."

"Your mercenary companions have already asked me this question, and I haven't heard of it."

"Really? What a shame."

Fan Xiao had no regrets; it was just a tentative question after all.

He then got to the point: "Are the Celestials a race that lives forever?"

"Immortality? The Celestial Race does have a longer lifespan than us humans, but... it's only two or three times longer. Immortality... that shouldn't be considered immortality, right?"

The old man replied, "I have heard that nobles among the Celestial Race and the Demon Race can live for more than three hundred years."

“And what about the true King Caesar?” Van Chau then asked, “How long does a king live?”

"This one……"

The old man fell into deep thought, seemingly recalling some unverifiable rumors.

After a while, he said uncertainly, "Whether it is the Celestial Race or the Demon Race, a king will inevitably be born. It's like a kind of inheritance."

“I heard my grandfather say that the previous king of the Celestial Race was born before the Continental Calendar, and he seemed to have lived for a thousand years?”

At this point, the old man shook his head: "These are all rumors that can no longer be verified. As for the lifespan of the two kings... I'm not too sure either, but it should be longer than that of the nobles, right?"

"Is it……"

Fan Xiao thought for a moment and then asked another question: "Do you know what the abilities of the Celestial Race and the Demon Race are? What are the differences between them and ordinary humans?"

"This one……"

The old man shook his head: "Since the birth of the two kings, the Celestial Race and the Demon Race have hardly been active in the human world."

"There have been many rumors in the past that the Demon Race and the Celestial Race all possess bodies comparable to those of gods."

"Among them, the warriors of the Demon race seem to be able to awaken the power to control nature, and most of them are stronger than the Celestial race... These are all rumors from many years ago, and their authenticity can no longer be verified."

"What about the Celestial Race?" Fan Xiao asked. "Besides their bodies, which are comparable to those of gods, do they have any other abilities? For example... the ability to change the shape of flesh and blood, or to make flesh and blood develop their own consciousness."

"This... I've never heard of this before." The old man asked doubtfully, "This power sounds so evil. How could the Celestial Race possess such an evil power? Are you kidding me?"

“…Just take it as a joke,” Fan Xiao said. “Thank you for the information.”

After saying goodbye to the old man, he left Longxi Village and headed towards the wooden house by the river.

On the way, Fan Xiao fell into deep thought.

"Even the scholars in the village who are responsible for enlightening people don't know the abilities of the Celestials... Is it that the Celestials are only physically strong, or... is only King Caesar special?"

"And... so even the two kings can't live forever?"

"If my guess is correct, Hell is the present, and the outside world is the past, then... it's definitely not possible for the outside world to evolve into the state of Hell it is today in a short time, after all, even the oceans have disappeared..."

"But if it's a long-term land change... King Caesar can't live forever, he can only live for a thousand years at most, he would have died of old age long ago, so why would the game issue a mission to eliminate him?"

Fan Xiao felt that the fog blocking him from getting closer to the truth was getting thicker and thicker.

He thought about it and decided to wait and see.

If the outside world is indeed a repetition of past history, then perhaps everything will be revealed when the battle of the two kings arrives.

Therefore, he first needed to spy on... no, I mean, monitor the twin sisters.

Soon, Fan Xiao arrived at the outer area of ​​the riverside wooden house and found the hooded girl hiding behind a large tree, observing what was ahead.

Fan Xiao's arrival caught the attention of the hooded girl.

The girl turned around, glanced at him, and asked, "Is everything ready?"

"Okay, ready."

Fan Xiao squatted down, his gaze fixed on the wooden house, and said while observing, "However, if possible, I hope that the ultimate move I've accumulated can be used against the enemy, rather than to leave information... No, it would be best if it wasn't needed at all."

"What's the situation on your end? Is Carmen the Demon King here?"

"I went there as a mercenary to ask the sisters, but the Demon King left early this morning."

The hooded girl said, "It seems to be Panga City... a human city near the territory of the demon race. This city was affected by the war last night, and many people died."

"The Demon King wants to go to Pomga City to check on the situation and take in some children who have lost their parents, and send them to the church city in the west, where there are facilities specifically for taking in war orphans."

"Does the Demon King often do this kind of thing?" Fan Xiao asked in surprise.

"Yes, that's what Lina said."

The hooded girl nodded slightly.

She glanced at the time on the player panel and reminded Fan Xiao, "It's 3:20 PM."

Upon hearing this, Fan Xiao instinctively summoned the panel, glanced at it, and nodded, saying, "We've already slowed down the invasion of Hell, so theoretically there shouldn't be any more problems. However... let's remain vigilant."

The hooded girl didn't reply, but became secretly on guard.

After waiting for about ten minutes, nothing happened.
