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

His emotions only stabilized slightly after he had fallen to the point where there was nothing left to fall on.

He summoned players from the intelligence department and asked, "Have the B-level players from other bases arrived yet?"

"The notification has already been sent out, and they should all be on their way."

The intelligence chief was afraid, but dared not show it, and could only respond with a respectful expression.

“Tell them to hurry!” Shash Sen snapped. “Otherwise, I don’t recommend going to their door in person!”

That statement is obviously a boast.

Now, how could he dare to leave the A1 base even a step?

Just as Fan Xiao had guessed, Shash Sen had made A1 base his permanent base, intending to stay until the very last minute before leaving.

He has also been involved in business in the 001 district over the years.

If he's willing to pay a price, he should be able to get active A-level players to protect him temporarily after leaving the A1 base.

However, this puts us in a very passive position.

There's no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days!

"I'm going to pretend to be weak!"

"I'm going to design a trap!"

“Cassandra, and that mysterious guy… if it happens again, I will definitely kill you!”

Shash Sen roared hysterically in his heart.

The ability to transform into a holy giant using the "Temple of Alfonso" has a three-month cooldown period—three months, a period predicated on the safety of the Temple's inhabitants.

After using it once, the people's spirits need three months of recuperation and recovery.

This cooldown time is not absolute.

If Cassandra and that mysterious man attack within three months... he wouldn't mind forcibly draining the mental energy of the people at Base A1 and transforming into a giant once again.

The result will simply be a lot of deaths; the population can be replenished from other bases at any time.

For him, eliminating all threats was of utmost importance.

Shash Sen got busy.

Unbeknownst to him, two figures were also in the conference room, standing right behind him, enjoying his clownish struggle.

Two figures, a man and a woman.

The man was a middle-aged man with a thin face, a high nose bridge, a kind expression, and gold-rimmed glasses. He gave off a refined and gentle vibe, like a cultured senior scholar engaged in academic research.

The woman had a curvaceous figure, waist-length hair, a stunning face, and a gentle demeanor.

The middle-aged man... Dr. Zhuang, suddenly spoke up: "I see, the research institute here is long gone..."

He sighed and said, "Love-obsessed people...it's really scary."

I'll stay in this section for a while too.

At this moment, the woman also turned her gaze away from Shash Sen and said something.

"Oh?" Dr. Zhuang said in surprise, "You're also interested in that test subject? The psionic energy she awakened is indeed extraordinary, similar to stopping time..."

“I’m not interested in idiots,” the woman interrupted Dr. Zhuang. “That Van Helsing speaks the language of my hometown.”

"language……"

Dr. Zhuang turned his gaze to Shash Sen, reviewed his memories again, and at the same time went through his own memories to confirm this.

A look of interest immediately appeared in his eyes: "That's right... The player at node G08 is actually involved in the destruction of a nation. The player's level doesn't seem to be A-level yet, but the abilities they've displayed are quite extraordinary..."

“He has nothing to do with you,” the woman warned. “He’s my prey.”

“It’s just out of interest,” Dr. Zhuang cautioned, “Being at odds with a destroyed nation won’t do us any good. If you’re going to take action, you’d better keep that in mind and not go too far.”

The woman didn't respond, seemingly having her own thoughts.

Seeing this, Dr. Zhuang said nothing more.

Gu Hange is no longer a member of the "One Wing" organization, so even if he causes trouble, it won't be attributed to them.

Chapter 493 New Gadgets, the Evolution of Superpowers

The "Mone Tower" instance has ended.

[Player "Seal" Dungeon Rating: A]

[Player "Alsenel" Dungeon Rating: D]

A player panel pops up, and a game notification appears.

Fan Xiao glanced at his own evaluation, slightly surprised.

A... Logically speaking, he shouldn't have gotten an A rating. After all, before entering this instance, he knew about the existence of information such as the "Photograph of Guilt" and had some guesses about the ability of the Echo... or rather, about the rules of the instance.

Furthermore, his massacre in the "Real World" clearly violates the noble and righteous ideals advocated by the Evolution Game...

Fan Xiao felt something was strange, but didn't think about it too much.

As for his junior sister's evaluation... to be honest, he was quite surprised that she got a D.

Such a terrible performance should only have earned an E grade...

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Fan Xiao suddenly realized that his junior sister was staring at him, and he immediately stopped thinking.

"I get the feeling that you're thinking something really irritating," Fan Yinyue said expressionlessly, "It's really unpleasant!"

A woman's sixth sense is truly terrifying... Fan Xiao chuckled and said, "I can only say you're overthinking it. I'm checking my dungeon rewards right now."

"If I get an A rating from a B-level dungeon, will I get A-level items?" Fan Yinyue asked curiously.

"Please wait a moment, we are looking at it."

After replying, Fan Xiao's gaze returned to the player panel.

[Dungeon Rewards: 1 Grade B item, 2 Time Travel Tickets, 3 Grade C Evolution Potions, 3 Grade C Mental Recovery Potions, 3 Grade C Poison Potions, 1 Grade C Kidney Tonifying Potion, 1 Grade C Truth Elixir, 20 Game Coins]

"..."

Why are there kidney tonics now, following aphrodisiacs?

What do you mean?

Who are you looking down on?

Suppressing his dissatisfaction, Fan Xiao began to introduce the props.

[Rank B Item - Gate to the Mysterious Kingdom]

In the year 987 of the Magic Continent calendar, mages exploring the abyss using astral projection techniques discovered a strange dimension. Within this dimension, the mages' minds became unusually active, and their thoughts and ideas materialized within the dimension.

The magicians were excited about this miraculous dimension. To avoid affecting each other, they meditated, calmed their burgeoning thoughts, and recorded the coordinates of this special dimension.

After returning to the magical continent, the mages combined spatial and summoning spells to create a portal that could connect to that special dimension and be summoned at any time.

[Note 1: By placing the door in front of you and standing behind it, you and your units will be placed within an inexplicable realm, isolating yourself from external mental interference. The degree of isolation depends on the attack strength of the enemy units.]

[Note 2: If you possess the talent of mental attributes, when you are in the realm of the Inconceivable Kingdom, the mental attacks you inflict on your target will, to some extent, materialize—the burning sensation will transform into flames, the drowning sensation into lakes and rivers, the tearing sensation into spear piercings… enabling you to achieve attacks in the three dimensions of mind, body, and energy.]

[Note 3: Consuming a large amount of mental energy can permanently solidify relatively minor mental attacks, leaving them in the material world.]

[Note 4: The extent of the Incredible Kingdom depends on your mental strength. When your mental strength reaches the A-level range, it will reach its limit in terms of range.]

This item is pretty awesome... Fan Xiao took out three bottles of evolution potion and drank them to calm his nerves, while mentally evaluating it.

"Gate to the Incredible Kingdom" is an item that provides comprehensive mental defense.

Once the door is opened, all types of mental interference can be isolated, only the degree of isolation varies.

Moreover, this mental defense can be shared – by bringing teammates into the realm, you can also provide mental defense for them, which is equivalent to a group defense skill.

This item will be of great help to him, both now that he can't connect to Fairy Tale Town, and later when he runs dungeons.

As for drawbacks... there are two.

The first problem is that the upper limit of defense is locked, and it cannot increase with the growth of spirit. However, the scope of the kingdom can continue to grow with spirit until the beginning of the A-level range... or rather, the limit of B-level.

The second drawback is that to use it for attacks, a necessary condition must be met—the player must possess a talent for mental attributes or psionic abilities.

This puts him in a difficult position.

"It can be used as a mental defense item when running dungeons."

"Normally... if we give it to Coco to use, it will have a greater effect."

Fan Xiao quickly analyzed the usage plan.

If Yan Keke were to use this prop, she would undoubtedly be able to make the most of the content in "Note 2" and "Note 3".

Yan Keke's A-rank psionic ability, "Delusion Kingdom," is the highest-ranking mental psionic ability, capable of any form of mental interference. When used in conjunction with this item, it will produce an exaggerated attack effect.

"Speaking of which, Coco's props haven't been changed in a long time. Once Fairy Tale Town can be reconnected, we can give them to her as a gift."

"I'll let her use it normally, and I'll borrow it for myself when I'm doing dungeons... Hmm, that would be perfect."

Fan Xiao focused his thoughts.

Meeting his junior sister's curious gaze, he shook his head and replied, "It's a B-grade item, not an A-grade one. But it's very powerful, and it's considered one of the more outstanding B-grade items."

“An A-level rating, but no higher-level item…” Fan Yinyue frowned slightly: “It seems the rumors are true, A-level items are not so easy to obtain.”

"Even A-level players might not be able to get A-level items from A-level dungeons, so how could a B-level dungeon give out such a reward?"

Fan Xiao observed quickly and guessed, "There aren't many A-grade items... at least they're not unlimited, far fewer than B-grade items. This proves that the 'god' who created the items and dungeons cannot be truly 'omniscient and omnipotent' in terms of creative authority."

"In some ways, this is a good thing for us, and it puts our minds at ease."

"To get an A-grade item in a B-grade dungeon... I reckon I'd have to get an S-grade rating."

"S-level rating..."

The junior sister subconsciously looked around.

The gray and white space has been completely transformed into the A1 base.

However, the base is empty and there is no human activity simulated by the dungeon rules at the moment—this is the dungeon boss's authority, which allows them to temporarily cancel the simulation of humans.

Fan Yinyue's feelings towards Base A1 are... rather complicated.

She didn't want to see Shash Sen and his group for the time being, so she left the base vacant.

When necessary, she will simulate all the corresponding humans to fight against the enemy.

She continued, "In this instance, how do you get an S-rank rating? I think you... you've already performed well enough."

"Just say it, why pause?" Fan Xiao thought to himself, speechless.

I have a feeling that my junior sister has thought of something that she is ashamed to say.

Fan Xiao maintained a serious expression and replied, "An S-rank rating can only be obtained in a relatively special dungeon."

"Think about the last dungeon, the Battle of Two Cities. Wasn't it much more difficult than this B-rank dungeon?"

“Let’s divide it among the people,” Fan Yinyue retorted. “In the last dungeon… as long as we figured out the pattern, killed a large number of players from the opposing faction, and accumulated enough reincarnation days, we should be able to clear it with the lowest possible conditions.”

"Don't forget the level of the last dungeon was C-rank," Fan Xiao reminded him. "Comparing a C-rank to a B-rank is inherently unfair."

"You mean, to get an S rank, you need to consider the difficulty of the dungeon... You should also consider the player's level. You'll probably only be able to get an S rank if you try to clear the dungeon at the same or lower level."

Fan Yinyue added to her speculation.

Fan Xiao nodded: "That should be it."

As he spoke, his physical evolution was completed, and his condition returned to normal.

Fan Xiao changed his items and checked the updated player panel.
