Keep attacking girls and try not to be killed by them

(Is my judgment right or wrong?)

With the experience from last time, Jiang Ran looked directly at the dark magic circle this time, waiting for the "Trial" to judge and decide his fate.

The answer this trial gave him was:

·

by.

·

I saw the dark magic circle slowly rising into the air, and then a soft white light shot out from it, shining accurately on Jiang Ran's body. In the blink of an eye, it purified the poison in his body and helped him recover to full health. At the same time, a string of text prompts appeared in Jiang Ran's field of vision.

——『Successfully pass the "Fifth Difficulty: Purple Trial" and automatically advance the "Second-Level Class: Shadow Killer" to the "Third-Level Class: Shadow Trickster"』

——『Automatically learn the third-level skill, "Shadow Stealing"』

——『The number of skill slots has been expanded to 3』

——『If the upgrade conditions are met, "Shadow Killer - Lv50" will automatically upgrade to "Shadow Trickster - Lv51"』

At the same time as the advancement was successful, Jiang Ran, who already had full experience, automatically upgraded to a higher level, and accordingly, his stats also improved.

━━━━━━━━━━

Dexterity: 944+5↑+50↑

Stamina: 2619+5↑+50↑

━━━━━━━━━━

Jiang Ran knew that the attribute rewards of this upgrade were just an appetizer. The real improvement that the advancement would bring to him would depend on the three light balls that would appear next.

And it is no exaggeration to say that after taking a look at the effect of the new skill "Shadow Stealing", he even felt that it didn't matter even if there was no light ball reward, because this new skill was so powerful!

However, the more rewards, the better. Even though Jiang Ran had just gone through the test of greed, there was no way he would refuse the reward that was right in front of him.

·

After emitting a beam of white light, the pitch-black magic circle projected a beam of purple light onto the platform floor.

A purple glowing cube was formed where the purple light fell, with a countdown ticking above it. There were about three hours left. This was the exit that Jiang Ran and others would use to leave the trial.

Then, three white light balls flew out from the glowing cube, slowly floated in front of Jiang Ran, and hovered in the air waiting for him to receive them.

(Here it comes, “dinner”.)

Jiang Ran reached out and grasped the first ball of light, which then solidified and turned into a cherry-sized glass bead that fell into his hand.

Jiang Ran picked it up and took a look. The words "Universal Stone" were engraved on the glass bead, but he was not too surprised. He realized that he would be able to obtain a universal stone every time he passed the fifth level trial.

Then Jiang Ran grasped the second ball of light. As he held the ball of light, a burning warm current flowed into his body along with the ball of light, constantly rolling and surging in his body, forcing him to close his eyes and concentrate on controlling this power. It took a long time before it gradually subsided.

Jiang Ran slowly opened his eyes and felt that he had been reborn. Corresponding text prompts also appeared in his field of vision.

——[Received the attribute point bonus for the "Fifth Difficulty: Purple Trial"]

Jiang Ran immediately confirmed the changes in his attribute values. This time the reward was even more outrageous than when he upgraded from level one to level two!

━━━━━━━━━━

Strength: 335 + 400↑

Dexterity: 999 + 400↑

Wisdom: 829 + 400↑

Health: 3350 + 4000↑

Stamina: 2674 + 2400↑

Mana: 8290 + 4000↑

━━━━━━━━━━

(It seems... I misjudged the trial just now.)

(If I continue to challenge the purple trials every time I advance, then when I reach level 5, I will be a true "number freak"...)

This time, Jiang Ran clearly felt the enhancement of his physical fitness brought by the numerical improvement. If measured by the standards of the Earth world, his current physical ability is already that of a humanoid monster.

Moreover, the improvement of physical ability is not only beneficial to Jiang Ran himself. In the future, when he uses the skill "Shadow Behind", his shadow clone will also be strengthened. Even just thinking about these things makes Jiang Ran full of expectations.

(Okay, there's one last reward. Let's see what it will be this time.)

Jiang Ran withdrew his thoughts and reached out to the last ball of light.

8.38 - The Next Death (Part )

Jiang Ran carefully grasped the ball of light. This time, the ball of light turned into countless tiny spots of light, slowly enveloping him, and then merged into his body.

Then, a text message prompt appeared in his field of vision.

——『I have received the blessing of the "God of Moderation, Terpurans", and the inherent ability "Pure and Silence" has been engraved into my soul.』

(Pure and serene? What is this?)

Jiang Ran immediately checked his status information and found that in addition to his inherent abilities of "Super-Dimensional Divine Eyes" and "Fearless Heart", he also had a new ability called "Pure and Silence".

━━━━━━━━━━

Innate Ability: Purity and Netherworld

Ability effects:

1. Permanently immune to any mental attacks that stimulate greed;

2. Can use the skill "Pure Heart and Few Desires";

━━━━━━━━━━

After reading the description of the inherent ability, Jiang Ran couldn't help but laugh. This effect really fits the theme of the trial, but it is hard to say whether he will have the chance to use it in the future.

Then, Jiang Ran turned his attention to the description of the skill "Purity of Mind".

━━━━━━━━━━

Skill: Purity

Skill description:

1. This skill can only be activated by directly touching the target's head;

2. The target objects are limited to living organisms;

3. After the skill is successfully activated, the target will lose their desire for "external objects" within 60 minutes;

4. This skill does not consume mana and has a cooldown of 24 hours;

━━━━━━━━━━

If we say that "purity and tranquility" is about not knowing in what situations it can be useful, then we don't know what to use "purity of mind and few desires" for.

Jiang Ran thought about it briefly and felt that this skill might only be useful when competing with others for treasures.

However, having one more skill is always good. Jiang Ran's successful advancement this time is already his biggest gain. Moreover, the trial has restored all his stats, so he can fight immediately after leaving the trial.

(Okay, now that I've got my reward, it's time to go out.)

·

Jiang Ran came to the exit of the trial. At this time, the countdown on the glowing cube was two hours and fifty minutes, which gave him some ideas.

Considering that the flow of time in the outside world is only one twentieth of that in the trial space, the less than an hour that Jiang Ran spent in the trial space was only less than three minutes in the outside world.

Even if he used up the remaining nearly three hours, the outside world would only last for another ten minutes.

In other words, the trial space is actually a good place that is close to "time pause". Whether you practice, think or sleep here, it is equivalent to not wasting time, which is very cost-effective.

Therefore, Jiang Ran planned to do something in the trial space first that might take a lot of time.

·

Jiang Ran took out the universal stone he had just obtained, and then converted it into energy points of the Super-Dimensional Divine Eye.

After leaving the trial space, Jiang Ran will most likely have a battle with the werewolf clan, so Jiang Ran needs to first see how he will die next time.

(Use ability to foresee future death scenes)

As the power of the Super-Dimensional Divine Eye was activated, Jiang Ran immediately saw how he would die in the "future".

This time, it was a hooded man wearing a wolf mask who killed Jiang Ran.

In the death scene, the hooded man grabbed Jiang Ran's neck with one hand and lifted him into the air, while the other hand pierced Jiang Ran's chest, holding Jiang Ran's heart in his hand.

(Thank you, stranger. This is the first time in my life that I have seen what my heart looks like.)

After watching his own death scene so many times, Jiang Ran is no longer surprised. He uses his ability to generate a photo of his future death scene, and then observes it carefully again.

━━━━━━━━━━

Date of death: September 187, 7

Time of death: 9:12 a.m.

Death screen content:

The picture is in a horizontal composition, and the background looks like it is in the mountains and forests.

In the center of the picture are the lifted Jiang Ran and the standing hooded man with a wolf mask. Jiang Ran has multiple injuries on his body, his left hand and right foot are suspected to be broken, and his fatal injury is that his heart has been removed, while the hooded man looks almost unharmed.

Moreover, Jiang Ran was not the only person who died in the picture.

On the ground nearby, Heloise, Captain Pride, and even Little Motorcycle were all lying in a pool of blood.

Judging from the amount of bleeding, they had no hope of survival.

━━━━━━━━━━

·

After reading all the information about the future death scene, Jiang Ran sat down, then lay down, and closed his eyes.

He didn't expect that after risking his life to pass the advancement trial, he still couldn't escape the fate of being killed by the werewolf clan.

Judging from the manner of death, Jiang Ran and his companions were brutally slaughtered by the enemy this time, and Jiang Ran did not forget the effect of the "Dragon Eye Crystal Necklace·Goblin's Greed" he was wearing. This necklace can block one fatal injury for Jiang Ran, which means that Jiang Ran was actually killed twice.

Is the gap this time really that big?

However, the feeling of frustration did not stay in Jiang Ran's heart for too long before it was absorbed. Since he knew what mistake he would make next, he would not let the same scenario happen again.

Jiang Ran quickly cheered up and began to analyze every detail in the future death scene again. He firmly believed that the key to solving the deadlock was hidden in these details.

The first detail is the date and time of death. July 7th is the day after tomorrow, which means Jiang Ran still has two days.

Secondly, there was only the figure of the man with the wolf mask and hood in the death scene, and no other werewolves were seen at all. This was inconsistent with Jiang Ran’s understanding of the werewolf army.

Jiang Ran couldn't help but start to wonder, where did the other werewolves go? Or even more extreme, does the murderer wearing a wolf mask necessarily mean he is a member of the werewolf clan?

Finally, regarding the "people who did not appear in the picture", Jiang Ran did not see Ice Star Shirley and Branch Chief Pame in the picture. Where did they go and why didn't they act with the team?

Each of the three doubts revealed in this analysis is very valuable. Jiang Ran has now returned to his own rhythm and style of action. Although the pressure is still huge, he is full of motivation.

What Jiang Ran needs to do next is to deduce what his "future self" has done in this "death future", what the difference is between him now and his "future self", and how to avoid the same death future from happening again.

Speaking of differences, Jiang Ran believes that the biggest difference is the level of the "Super-Dimensional Divine Eye".

After using up some energy points just now, Jiang Ran's Super-Dimensional Divine Eye finally accumulated the last bit of experience points and successfully upgraded from level three to level four, and as he expected, it also gained new abilities.

In order to make a more reliable analysis and reasoning, Jiang Ran temporarily put aside the matter of "Death Future" and turned to confirm the changes in the Super-Dimensional Divine Eye after it was upgraded to a new level.

8.39 - Super Dimensional Eye Lv4

After two months, the Super-Dimensional Divine Eye was finally upgraded from level three to level four.

The improvement of this upgrade may not seem like much at first glance, but after careful study, Jiang Ran discovered that he seemed to be one step closer to the underlying truth of the Prison Star World.

[img=700,765]https://rss.sfacg.com/web/novel/images/UploadPic/2023/02/ad1dc2e6-acf9-48b9-9673-d7207420a632.jpg[/img]

[Note: The above image is a screenshot of the text from Super Dimensional Eyes LV4. The parts marked in color are new or have changed.]

After reaching level 150, the Super Dimensional Eye had some minor changes. For example, the effective range of reading minds and attack intentions was increased from level 200 to level . This would be of great help to Jiang Ran in his next battle with the werewolves.
