Chapter 211: The Strongest Spectacle!
Reset!
Three redraws.
The first draw is… “World Line Change Fragment · Atlantis x1.”
Although the probability of failure seemed already set, Bai Yan still managed to keep his composure.
He didn’t believe that his luck was truly bad, especially since he had awakened his extraordinary power, called “Game,” which had continuously improved his luck!
Indeed, after reaching the “awakening” stage, Bai Yan found that his luck in various daily situations had become far stronger than that of ordinary people.
Particularly when playing games, he often ended up with good items that had a low probability of appearing.
It was clear that in certain games, achieving a perfect victory required not only skill but also a bit of good fortune.
Thus, it was only natural that his extraordinary power, “Game,” also carried a luck bonus.
Second summon!
The card flips.
“Probability! Indestructible · Fusion Slime!”
“Not bad.”
Bai Yan felt a lot more at ease. He drew the skin for the strongest defense-focused type, and Fusion Slime was already a Core Operator he had.
In targeted battles, the slime’s defense capability would greatly increase.
“Indestructible” is a defensive skin for Fusion Slime that specializes in resisting regular damage.
Its weakness, however, lies in being vulnerable to mental manipulation or strange curses, and its recovery ability is significantly diminished.
But, this slime is virtually immune to all regular attacks.
The “Fusion Slime” in this world line was born in a “metal world” where all life forms are made of metal elements.
Here, Fusion Slime is composed of the rarest “extraterrestrial metal” from the universe, with a dark golden spherical body and indestructible tentacles.
Its recovery and flexibility both decrease since it can’t enter its explosive state without fusion power.
Nonetheless, its regular defense and strength rise substantially.
Not only would the slime be impenetrable at its current level, but Bai Yan suspected that even Nightsaber, who is several times stronger, would need hours just to handle it.
Bai Yan muttered to himself:
“If Alan didn’t have his ‘Fire that Burns Everything,’ he probably wouldn’t be able to kill Fusion Slime with this skin in his lifetime… No, wait, he’s learned some really powerful spells recently. I was too harsh on Alan. Even so, it would take him at least ten hours.”
By this point, his ten summons this time weren’t a complete loss.
Even if the last summon didn’t give him anything useful, Bai Yan was already satisfied.
Of course, it would be better to get a prize drop.
The next summon did drop a prize.
What he got made his heart stop, and he froze into a motionless statue.
“World Line Change · World Tree!”
Bai Yan could hardly believe it, rubbing his eyes and carefully inspecting the game prompts from “Babel Tower.”
In his view, the “World Tree” was undoubtedly the best among all “marvels.” It would be fair to say it was as lucky as drawing the Queen of the Scarlet Moon from the “marvels” pool!
World Tree, Queen of the Scarlet Moon, Wishing Lamp—these were the few cards Bai Yan had been hoping for… Drawing any one of them during the early or mid stages would be incredible!
“Did it really come out?”
He was still in disbelief, as if in a dream.
But the reality was that it had truly been drawn—the legendary World Tree…
“Load World Line Change!”
Without hesitation, Bai Yan used World Line Change · World Tree!
Yggdrasil!
“Game Tip:”
“World Tree loading! It will be completed in a few days!”
Bai Yan understood the function of the World Tree. According to legend, it’s a white wax tree that reaches into the sky.
From this tree, nine kingdoms emerge, and beneath it, three giant roots connect to three unique springs.
In “Babel Tower,” the World Tree acts as a “portal” connecting various other worlds within the multiverse.
Once fully grown, “Babel Tower’s” daily and weekly missions will include additional content from various worlds, replacing the previous regular tasks.
Each of its branches and roots links to a different world, and the “Savior” can dispatch Core Operators to undertake “otherworldly” missions, which replace the original tasks, offering substantial rewards.
In simple terms, the Source Energy Points Bai Yan steadily collects each week will greatly increase… It’s a reliable and high return! Effective for the long run!
Thus, the earlier you withdraw from the World Tree, the higher your long-term profits in the game.
Bai Yan was extremely thrilled, unable to calm down for a long time, feeling that he was closer than ever to achieving a perfect ending in the second playthrough of “Babel Tower.”
This wasn’t a fantasy—it was an objective truth.
He felt as if he had returned to the villa, where Sylve was snacking on chips and watching TV in the living room.
The news reported that the “natural disasters” near Tatsumi City were growing closer, urging citizens to prepare for protective measures.
“Recently, a new natural disaster is approaching Tatsumi City. Please prepare to deal with the disaster…”
Due to the frequency of natural disasters, the Air Alliance had begun establishing independent cities one after another.
The girl instinctively stood up when she saw Mr. Moriarty… Sylve stared at him in fear while holding her chips.
“Please sit, you can keep eating.”
Bai Yan was filled with happiness at that moment. He waved his hand casually, with a gentle smile on his face.
Sylve blinked, took out a potato chip, unsure of what was happening, and hesitantly put it back in her mouth.
What could have made Mr. Moriarty so happy?
He had never shown such an expression before.
Two days later.
Maryse received news from Phoenix that the Capetian family, one of the five major families, had appointed a new patriarch who quickly chose to join the Babel Tower.
A wise decision.
Only the Astor and Gene families were still hesitant.
But she knew it wouldn’t take long for this matter to be settled, as the trend was undeniable.
Unstoppable.
At that moment, Maryse sat in a high-end restaurant, humming a cheerful tune.
She was dressed more exquisitely than before, in pink clothing with bare snow-white arms and legs… Despite the approaching winter, she showed no fear of the cold.
Patrons in the restaurant couldn’t help but glance at her, captivated by her beauty.
However, those who developed impure thoughts after admiring her suddenly began to behave strangely during their meal.
Maryse had arranged to meet with Senior Profligate and planned to confide in him about her recent matters.
To be honest, she could have skipped this.
Yet, she felt a strong desire to share her recent experience of “losing and finding” with him.
Of course, she was ecstatically happy now, but the true head of the Augusta household was still Phoenix, and Maryse had only Irena to confide in about her joy.
That wasn’t enough. She still needed to share her happiness with others… She knew Mu Ling was not a good choice, so she found Mr. Profligate on the forum and asked to meet for a meal.
She never expected him to agree, but he did.
Maryse murmured to herself,
“Profligate, pleasure… it makes sense. Since he loves pleasure, he probably won’t refuse a dinner invitation, right?”
However, the person who appeared was not Profligate, whom she had longed for.
A faint scent of blood reached Maryse’s nose. She froze, becoming alert.
A series of inner voices soon followed.
[Are the people from Babel Tower here? I’ve finally found you, Psychic Dancer.]
[I thought it was absolutely impossible to find you.]
[Cognition Filter… Did you turn it off voluntarily?]
Had the Cognition Filter malfunctioned?
Maryse was stunned, unsure why someone would be looking for her…
Come to think of it, Mu Ling mentioned that she had been recognized by ordinary citizens unexpectedly.
A thought immediately struck her.
Could Babel Tower’s Cognition Filter only activate when identity confirmation poses a risk?
Just then, the restaurant door opened.
A man walked in with an imposing, handsome face, a proud smile, golden parted hair, and a red tailcoat.
Marquis Scarlet!
Maryse’s pupils contracted, confused as to why an important member of the blood clan would be seeking her out, and whether he harbored hostile intentions.
But now her strength was formidable… Surely, she was stronger than him.
No need to fear!
Though, deep down, she couldn’t help but feel a little frightened!
Maryse sighed and said,
“Mr. Profligate, where are you? How could you stand up a beautiful young lady? It’s unforgivable! Do you realize the grave sin of being a death row candidate?”
Marquis Scarlet looked at her and smiled gently, which didn’t seem like the behavior of an enemy.
[That matter must be explained to Babel Tower, or this city will cease to exist.]
Maryse froze, certain she had just heard something extraordinary.
Marquis Scarlet walked over and bent slightly, each movement exuding nobility. He smiled and said,
“Psychic Dancer, the beautiful lady who belongs to Babel Tower, I have something important to tell you. The respected Savior must know.”
“Our Queen Majesty is injured.”
Queen of the Scarlet Moon is injured?
Maryse was stunned. This didn’t seem like a joke. If the “injury” wasn’t something severe, they wouldn’t have informed her directly.
Marquis Scarlet’s expression was grave and solemn, though he appeared somewhat apprehensive.
[[If our speculation is correct…]]
[An unimaginable horror has quietly infiltrated this city.]
[It is about to destroy the entire city.]
