Rudy excitedly walked around in circles. He looked at Fane before looking at his own hand.Fane raised an eyebrow, immediately guessing what Rudy was thinking. Thus, he smiled and said, "If you're willing to follow me still, I'll take you along. You just have to make sure you don't betray me."Rudy's hand quivered, his face reddened a little, and he was shaking from excitement. His lips moved, wanting to say something, but he could not figure out the words to say.Fane laughed and continued, "Are you worried that you might not get used to other worlds, and that Hestia might be safer for you? Yet you still want to see the wider world."Rudy lowered his head. Fane had guessed exactly what was in his mind. He stood still, not knowing what to do or say.Fane stood up and patted Rudy's shoulder, "Just say what you're thinking and do what you want to do."Rudy looked at Fane emotionally. After a moment, he finally said, "I'm just worried about my future. I know that you'll protect me a
Fane smiled and said, "That's because there were only warriors from Hestia Continent at the start. The warriors from the other worlds only came in later on. Slowly, we'll start to see more and more warriors from other worlds. The Whirling World intersects with a lot of other worlds. I don't know how many different worlds we'll interact with. We might even end up seeing warriors from first-grade worlds."When he said that, Fane's voice trembled slightly in excitement. The crystal badge had instilled the Whirling World's structure and rules into Fane's mind. Fane already knew what was waiting in Weinhord City. After Fane and Rudy spoke outside the city, Fane brought Rudy inside.A massive one-hundred-and-fifty-meter wide array was seen there. There were a few thousand people gathered around it. Two masked caretakers stood in front of the array. They had a pen and paper in hand, as well as many badges.Fane and Rudy saw the caretakers recording something when they arrived.Rudy want
After hearing the rules, Rudy widened his mouth in surprise, "So you mean a hundred and twenty warriors will die in one go?"Fane nodded. Compared to only one being left alive out of ten in the slaughter gambit, the slaughter game had a much lower percentage of dying. Only about half would die. However, the slaughter game would kill off about a hundred in one go. Looking at the numbers was enough to stun anyone.Rudy took a deep breath as his expression froze, "Isn't that way too many deaths? Even though only half of them would die, it's still a hundred people. No wonder that guy spoke like that earlier."The bearded man was already getting impatient. He turned over and faced the small-eyed man, "Hey, you should just relax. Even though my skills aren't that amazing, I'm quite good at running away and protecting myself. As long as I'm careful, I'll be able to survive."The small-eyed man's lips twitched as he said with a resigned tone, "Why do you insist on taking the risk?! Honestl
Hearing Fane's explanation, Rudy was even more stunned. He said in confusion, "What do you mean by the only Weinhord City? Other Weinhord Cities?"Fane smiled as he explained, "To us, there is only one Weinhord City, but there are actually countless ones. The warriors of these worlds gathered together and can only see one Weinhord City, but there are actually countless others that are open to the other worlds. Do you understand me?"Rudy coughed as he rubbed his nose. In truth, he did not really understand, but he did not know where to start. He shrugged and explained it in his own way, "So you're telling me that there are countless Weinhord Cities. All of them are in different places in space and time. They face warriors from different worlds."Fane looked at Rudy with some praise, nodding and saying, "Yes, that's right."Rudy's lips stiffened not expecting to get the right answer so easily.However, Rudy did not really understand what he was saying either. After thinking about i
"You have no way of telling who's weak or who's strong at all. The warriors from second-grade worlds will definitely try to kill as much as they can. After so many slaughter games, the warriors from second-grade worlds always take up the first three spots."If you just look at the warriors from the third-grade worlds, we don't just have a fifty percent chance to die. It's as high as sixty or seventy. That's because the chances of warriors from second-grade worlds dying is much lower than us. Most of the ones who die are from third-grade worlds."As he said that, the small-eyed man got emotional. He frowned tightly, "I know you think you're very skilled, but everyone who participates in the slaughter game thinks they’ll survive as well."Entering the slaughter game doesn't just require luck and skill, but smarts as well. If you are to survive, you at least need to excel in one of the three, but I don't think you do."The bearded man's expression darkened when he heard that. His lips
Rudy raised an eyebrow as he pressed his forehead, no longer daring to think any further. The more he thought, the crueler he felt the world was. He had always said that the world was a place of survival of the fittest before this, but he never truly felt the meaning of the phrase until that moment.Rudy took a deep breath, "In the eyes of the strong, you'll feel like all of this is right. However, in our eyes, we just feel like it's crazy. The world is just too crazy."Death doesn't seem to matter in this world at all. No wonder I was too scared to try and survive in a large clan before. The competition is too fierce. It comes with so many corpses, and so many people lose their lives so easily. I don't want to be one of them, I just wanted to live my life carefully."Fane smiled, not expecting that Rudy would have thought about it so much. Fane had felt like Rudy used to just do whatever he pleased using his position, but he learned humility after going through so much. He never ex
If that was the case, then Rudy would still need to return to Hestia Continent. However, if he could place Rudy in Mustard Seed, then Fane would not have to worry about that. Mustard Seed was a treasure from the Divine Void World. It was an isolated space. If Rudy was placed in Mustard Seed, Fane would not have to worry about bringing him away.When Rudy heard what Fane said, he gaped in surprise. He was no idiot. He naturally knew that Fane had some secrets as he excelled at everything. He was much better than everyone else no matter if it was in alchemy or in martial arts. Fane could no longer be described as just a genius. He was a monster.Even geniuses from first-grade worlds were probably only just comparable to Fane's level. There was no way a genius like Fane was someone who grew up in Hestia Continent. Fane definitely had an immense secret behind him. However, Rudy never tried to look into that secret, acting like he did not know anything. It was precisely because of that,
Fane was not the slightest bit threatened. He merely stood in place with a calm expression, waiting for Guzman to make a move. Fane's actions infuriated Guzman. He felt like he was being challenged.Guzman snorted, "Brat, what are you pretending for? Do you think I'll think you're better than you are just because you're acting like this? Stop trying to put on an act. It's useless against me. No matter how calm you act, I'll still kill you in the end."Fane's lips twitched helplessly. He thought that Guzman would attack faster if he acted like that. He did not want to waste any time with nonsense, but it seemed like he had to. Sure enough, those warriors who thought too highly of themselves never liked to see his calm expression. They felt like he was challenging them.Fane sighed in exasperation as he raised an eyebrow and looked at Guzman, "You're just like the rest of them. You just love annoying me with your nonsense. How do you know if I'm putting on an act? Do you think I can't
