Lin Bei sat alone at the control panel, a slight curve appearing at the corner of his mouth as he looked at the incredibly complex array of buttons.
If it were in the past, he definitely wouldn't know how to operate this equipment.
But now that his Mental Attribute exceeded 100 million, he only needed to glance at the instruction manual to fully understand how to operate all this equipment.
Qingqing stared dumbfounded from the side as Lin Bei's hands continuously hammered on the keyboard like afterimages, making her involuntarily swallow.
That hand speed... isn't that a bit too fast?
However, a serious man... is indeed super handsome.
Qingqing uncontrollably began loading the Romance Module, displaying a lovesick expression.
"Ahem, Qingqing, if you have nothing else to do, you can go upgrade your Energy Core."
Lin Bei's Spirit was overflowing; even with his back to Qingqing, he instantly captured her reaction clearly.
"Oh, okay! I... I'll go upgrade the core right now!"
Qingqing, snapping out of it, had a slight blush on her pretty face and hurriedly fled as if escaping.
"Phew—"
Seeing this, Lin Bei slightly relaxed.
That ripe Little Peach really made it hard for him to concentrate.
He hadn't released himself for several days, and coupled with the surge in Combat Power, it felt like a blazing fire was burning inside him, making him feel like a powder keg ready to explode at any moment.
"I hope Qingqing can complete the upgrade quickly. Otherwise, with her current small frame... it would be hard for her to handle it."
Lin Bei shook his head lightly and refocused his gaze on the screen.
The map displayed, and Lin Bei hesitated for a moment. He didn't choose to directly strike the Order Beacon's main base, but instead selected an Island Stronghold about a hundred miles away from their main base island.
"Let's choose this as the target. As for the main base, it's better to save it for the final reckoning."
"I hope you don't disappoint me and quickly apply for aid from the experts of the Order Faction behind you, bringing in more precious materials and items. Otherwise... my hard work would be in vain."
Lin Bei sighed softly and pressed the Launch Button directly.
Soon, in the backyard of the Manor Villa, the ground opened up, and a massive Launch Platform rose.
A moment later, ten fiery meteors shot into the sky, disappearing into deep space at extreme speed, flying toward the target location.
[Notification: Your Rocket Missile has triggered the "Ammunition Dominator" twenty-fold power amplification effect!]
A notification flashed before Lin Bei.
"Twenty-fold amplification? Hmm... not bad. This Rocket Missile was originally a Perfect-Grade Missile that came with the Manor Villa. With such a high amplification effect, the resulting explosive power should be comparable to a Transcendent-level missile attack, right?"
"Hmm... and this is without activating the Annihilation Force. Otherwise, the power of that explosion... would probably be enough to affect and sink the Order Beacon's main base along with it, right?"
"Good thing I held back, or I would have almost made a huge mistake! Those... those are my Fine Legacy Blind Boxes!"
Lin Bei breathed a slight sigh of relief, and without further ado, he immediately started a Live Broadcast on the public chat channel.
"Hello everyone. Seeing how lively your discussion is today, I'm sending ten rockets to liven things up. Hope you all enjoy it~"
"Also, here is a picture of some gourmet food. This is my simple lunch today: a Perfect Quality KFC Family Bucket + Perfect Quality Sprite. I have to say, life is truly difficult. Even I can only barely get by eating this junk fried food and Carb Bombs every day."
As soon as these words appeared, everyone in the chat channel was dumbfounded, and the dry bread they were gnawing on instantly lost its appeal!
Holy crap!
Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap!
Th-th-this... is this even human language?
Huh?
Is there even Heavenly Justice anymore?!
Soon, everyone in the chat channel exploded.
However, Lin Bei himself looked indifferent, watching the constantly scrolling chat channel messages with extreme satisfaction and comfort in his heart.
Adhering to the principle of showing off and then running, Lin Bei left two sentences, immediately closed the chat channel, blocked all unsolicited Private Messages, and happily walked away from the Manor, arriving before the Dungeon Entrance.
"Huh, the scene here... seems to have changed?"
Lin Bei glanced in surprise at the Dungeon Entrance, which was four or five times larger than before, and finally fixed his gaze on a quaint Small Courtyard beside the entrance.
Above the courtyard gate hung a Plaque, prominently displaying the three characters: "Taibai Residence."
"Damn, I have to say, it's quite unique."
Lin Bei sighed with emotion but couldn't help but complain: "It's just that Taibai and Big Black, aren't they too different? But... I guess it's understandable. After all, as members of the Tianmo Clan, they live in darkness but yearn to become white."
At the courtyard entrance, two figures stood upright. They were wrapped in White Cloth Strips and exuded a powerful aura.
Lin Bei looked closely.
"Huh, aren't these Alpha and Snape? How did you two end up working as Gate Security for Big Black?"
Lin Bei asked curiously.
With just a glance, he saw that both of their Combat Powers had broken the 100,000 point mark. Although their Life Level was only Transcendent One-Star, their practical Combat ability was enough to compete with enemies above Transcendent Two-Star.
It can only be said that their only shortcoming was insufficient Spirit Strength.
But this couldn't be helped. Since these Disqualified Ones were people who had been eliminated before, they were essentially just shells containing lingering regrets. Expecting them to condense extremely strong spiritual power with just a wisp of Residual Soul... was simply wishful thinking.
However, the fact that they could achieve a Combat Power exceeding 100,000 points already put them at a crushing level of strength among all current Survivors.
"The Combat Power of these Disqualified Ones doesn't seem to have reached 1% of mine, as I had guessed. This must be due to physical limitations. Alas, it's a bit of a pity."
Lin Bei felt a little regretful.
"Oh, Master, it's like this: Big Black promised us that if we stand guard outside for one hour, we can absorb an extra wisp of pure Bloodline Curse Power from him. You should know, this opportunity was something we had to fight hard to snatch from our other brothers!"
Alpha was the first to speak, explaining to Lin Bei why the two of them had become Gate Security guards.
Lin Bei was slightly stunned upon hearing this.
"What a brilliant plan of 'Driving the Tiger to Devour the Wolf'! This Big Black... he's only a Five-Thousand-Combat-Power Weakling right now, not very strong, but he actually knows how to use schemes?"
"That's interesting."
Lin Bei felt a degree of admiration for Big Black's methods.
The latter directly implemented a Screening Mechanism, allowing powerful Disqualified Ones to defeat relatively weaker Disqualified Ones, eliminating some people to absorb the Curse Power within his bloodline.
In this way, he could effectively reduce excessive physical consumption while also avoiding the trouble caused by the Curse Power.
I have to say, this Big Black... has certainly forged an unusual path.
He originally thought that after he slept for a few days, this guy would probably have wasted away.
Now it seems he worried too much.
"Dong dong dong—"
Lin Bei stepped forward and knocked on the courtyard door.
"Who is it? Don't you know your Grandpa Black is taking a nap? Don't you dare come over and bother me! If you want to absorb Curse Power, wait until I wake up!"
However, as soon as the knock sounded, an arrogant shout came from inside the courtyard. The momentum... Lin Bei felt he would believe it if the guy claimed his Combat Power exceeded 100 million.
"Good heavens, how much did he drink to talk so aggressively?"
Hearing this, the smile on Lin Bei's face instantly froze. His eyes narrowed slightly, and a dangerous light flashed in their depths.
"Oh? Haven't seen you in a few days, and you've become Grandpa Black? How did I not know? Come out and tell me, whose grandpa do you want to be, Stinky Treasure?"
As his voice fell, his Combat Power erupted.
The Qi and Blood Power instantly blasted open the door in front of him, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a long Qi and Blood Sword, resting across the neck of Big Black, who was leaning back on a Lounge Chair with an impatient expression.
Gulp.
The latter's throat moved slightly as he swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty.
"Brother Bei, no, no, no, Daddy Bei, don't... don't hurt me, it's... it's o-o-our own people."
Big Black's expression froze, and his arrogant momentum instantly withered. He slid right off the Lounge Chair, collapsing weakly onto the ground, trembling.
"Holy crap, I'm screwed! This time I showed off too much, and now I'm leaking until I have diarrhea!"
"My heart is bitter! It's truly too bitter!"
"I'm really grateful! Holy shit!"
"Can anyone tell me what I should do now?"
"Waiting online, it's urgent!!!"
