Chapter 75: This Time It's Truly Cleared
Zhou Baiyu acquired an important prop and changed An Ya's trajectory.
After superiority vanished from An Ya's heart, she also changed her attitude toward the different walker.
As the granddaughter of Doctor A, she was no ordinary "NPC"; she had access to an abundance of information.
Within these pieces of information, there were even clues about Ragnarok.
Regarding Doctor A's notes, An Ya had read some and burned some as well.
But something she always wanted to do was to destroy a different walker's beliefs.
That was her twisted delight after becoming corrupted.
If it wasn't for the timed docking approaching and Jiang Xianwu and others about to depart...
She would probably request that they read the notebook right now.
Then...she would relish the sight of their astonishment.
Of course, if this boastful different walker, who sought to entertain himself by slaying demons and slaying gods, were to meet her again in the future and still maintain his current momentum...
She would look at him with new respect.
The sound of a ship's horn signaling time to dock rang out.
At this moment, everyone in the gambling hall's hearts were lifted to their throats.
Passing through Ling Hansu's mind was the level-clear assessment:
[Clearance Performance Evaluation: C-rank.]
[Unlocked Achievement: Endless Piercer (currently only six people have achieved this).]
[Summary: Lying to win is often a beautiful thing; luck is also a strength.
Endless Mode C-rank reward—Double pioneer points for three summoning rounds. Next turn, receive a summoning prop, a one-time resurrection coin.
For additional rewards, contact the intermediary.]
Ling Hansu exclaimed with joy:
"Ah! Such generous rewards! No, wait! Ahhhh...there's no penalty notice for Endless Mode! Big Brother Jiang and the chairman cleared Endless Mode!"
Seeing the Snow Demon jumping for joy, the crafty woman also smiled and said:
"Snow Demon girl, calm down a bit."
Everyone's suspenseful hearts were eased. The content of the clearance evaluation clearly indicated that Endless Mode was lifted.
Although Three-Day Fisherman had long known that people like Guang Tongchen, Ke Zhongye, Huan Liuyan, and others were legendary different walkers...
But now he realized what a true legend was.
"We've cleared Endless Mode...it's like a dream, hahaha...the intermediary said, rare titles can be flaunted in the Voice of the Vanguard with a prefix before one's name! Endless Piercer, that's really too cool!"
"I wonder what rewards the chairman and Jiang Xianwu will get? All of us lying to win should be C-rank, right?"
The person who spoke was a kneeling soldier; he continued:
"Following Brother Jiang's logic, then at least one of the two of them should have an SSS-rank. If the rewards for C-rank are so generous...what would the concept of SSS-rank be?"
Everyone grew curious. Last time, for an SSS-rank, Guang Tongchen received a Divine Weapon that even Tongchen envied.
This time, Tongchen was probably going to be envious again, right?
...
...
Joy wasn't just spreading in the gambling hall.
When Guang Tongchen saw the clearance evaluation, a rare smile appeared on his face.
[Clearance Evaluation: SS-rank.]
[Unlocked Achievement: Endless Piercer (currently only six people have achieved this).]
[Summary: The force of a violent clearance combined with the decisiveness to utilize people's strengths—congratulations, different walker, you've received a fine assessment. Unfortunately, you lost to another different walker in gaining An Ya's favor.
However, you still performed admirably, and it was precisely because of your deterrence that An Ya engaged amicably with another different walker.
Always remember, truth lies within range, and dignity atop the edge of the sword.
Endless Mode SS-rank reward—Sixfold pioneer points for three summoning rounds. Next turn, receive a summoning prop, a one-time resurrection coin.
Acquire a rare skill usable across all professions and factions—Red Gaze.
Other rewards, contact the intermediary.]
This was still the first time Zhou Baiyu had experienced this thing, a skill universal to all occupations.
Moreover, it didn't seem like a skill belonging to the different walkers but rather seemed like a skill from another faction...
An Ya also noticed that in the hands of this murderer, there was a coin containing some strange energy.
Truly witnessing a "prop" appearing out of nowhere solidified An Ya's belief in the gods playing with the entire world... beyond any doubt.
An Ya also harbored some thoughts deep inside.
If demons, Corruption Tentacles, different walkers, and humans... are all just playthings, then what is the purpose of the gods?
She always felt that this "game" had more than one manager.
Originally, she thought the goal of the game was to ravage humanity, but now it seemed... the game occasionally favored the different walkers as well.
Twilight of the gods, gods becoming rules, could it be that the battles among the gods haven't disappeared?
Her train of thought was quickly interrupted by the items in Zhou Baiyu's hands.
Zhou Baiyu also hadn't expected the Endless Mode to have so many rewards.
[Clearance Rating: SSS Grade.]
[Unlocked Achievements: Endless Piercer (currently achieved by only six people.) Unique Achiever]
[Summary: The gods are still looking down on the world with arrogance, even though they have all turned into rules on the night of the gods' fall, their will has not completely dissipated.
But can humans truly not change their fate? Perhaps not entirely, as the future world has already undergone interesting changes under your eloquent persuasion.
An Ya's fate has been extended, and one day in the future, she will come back in a grand fashion with her huge cruise ship, the Gonggong.]
Endless Mode SSS Grade Reward - Pioneering Value x6, sustained for three summoning rounds. Next turn, receive a one-time revival coin summoning item.]
Obtained a universal item for all versions - Dr. A's Notebook (Different Walkers Edition), obtained a unique item - Dr. A's Corruption Research Reagent. Obtained item - Gambler's Exquisite Dice. (Note, universal items for all versions can be taken into the original world.)]
Obtained a universal skill for all factions and occupations - Summon Corruption Tentacles.]
For other rewards, please contact the intermediary.]
Fiddling with the dice in his hand, Zhou Baiyu spotted an interesting remark—
[Item Name: Guang Tongchen's Happy Dice.]
[Specialty: A little something that allows a gambler to not only talk big but also fight. Durability 3/3.]
[Introduction: You navigate through the casino as easily as a morning stroll, which piqued the interest of the casino's boss (deceased). He decided to gift you this little trinket. A twelve-sided dice.
When you encounter difficulties, why not give it a toss? You might find some interesting options. This will make your experiences different, more chaotic.]
[Status: Not transformable (level insufficient)]
Yet another thing a second-order different walker can't transform.
It's only usable three times, but it seems...to be a very valuable thing for a gambler.
Zhou Baiyu roughly understood that Endless Mode might have many items,
while Blood Hunting Mode offers a vast amount of experience points. He himself advanced to a second-order different walker directly in Blood Hunting Mode.
Indeed, it required a massive amount of experience points. Even experienced different walkers like the scheming women, mule soldiers bowing down, and those who fish for three days only appeared to be experienced, yet they were actually just first-order.
So Zhou Baiyu vaguely understood. Every special mode, once cleared, probably had rewards specific to that mode.
Either you are given a lot of pioneering points, or many different items and skills.
However, at this moment, Zhou Baiyu wasn't really focused on these rewards.
After all, they were nothing more than to increase the survival rate of the next summon.
What he was truly interested in... was that notebook.
"Goodbye, Miss An Ya. I hope that one day, I will see you return in grandeur with the Gonggong. Remember my name, I am Jiang Xianwu."
After saying those words, Zhou Baiyu disappeared. All the different walkers disappeared along with him.
An Ya felt the emptiness of the library and surprisingly felt some anticipation.
She was very curious to see what Jiang Xianwu, the different walker who knew the truth, would look like.
And she looked forward to the possibility of truly meeting Jiang Xianwu in the future.
Although the two hadn't discussed the details of cooperation, they had merely exchanged information with each other.
But she indeed had a quite favorable impression of this different walker.]
