Chapter 48: The Best Solution Is to Kill!

[Simulation Ended.]

[Evaluation: You used the Sincerity Legion as a spark, armed the Sincerity Society with ideology, and forged a discipline-strict, faith-steadfast iron-blooded combat group. Single-handedly, you reshaped the overall layout of the millennium-old city of Ningcheng.]

[Tens of thousands of Ningcheng's people, due to your subversion of transcendent rules, transformed into professionals wielding transcendent power, embarking on entirely different destinies.]

[At the same time, because of your steadfastness, the collapse of the Ningcheng defense line was significantly delayed, which prevented the fall of Shangdu and drastically altered the tragic fates of the majority of ordinary people in the Central Plains region.]

[Perhaps your ideology is still not mature enough, and perhaps the power you command is not yet strong enough to resist the vested interests who control the world.]

[Yet in this cruel and exploitative transcendent world, you transformed into a fighter, battling wits and courage against the upper management institutions through your own strategy and wisdom.]

[On some future day, the single spark in which you firmly believe may truly ignite into a raging prairie fire.]

[Based on your relevant evaluation, you may retain the following four rewards.]

[①: Experience points from Level 11 to Level 26.]

[②: Thunder Wrath Set upgraded 5 times.]

[③: Skills: Critical Strike, Life Genesis.]

[④: Sincerity Legion Crucible Battle Array.]

[⑤: Sincerity Legion Inscription System.]

[⑥: Sincerity Legion Swarm System.]

[...]

[⑩: Bronze Talent: The Loyal.]

Lin Xia looked at the evaluation of this simulation, his gaze shifting slightly.

Without exception, these evaluations all revolved around the impact made on the world, while his personal professional level and combat power enhancements were directly ignored.

Especially regarding the transformation of Ningcheng, which was mentioned three times in six sentences.

The remaining three sentences also hinted continuously at this very matter.

Therefore, if he wanted to elevate his evaluation and obtain more rewards, he still needed to effect changes upon the world and carry out social reforms.

Yet the power wielded by the Federation was far beyond what he could currently contend with.

The path of reform was long and arduous!

That did not matter, however. Entrusting time to the future, he believed his future self would undoubtedly crush everything blocking his path.

"Select ①, ②, ③, and ⑩."

After a moment of thought, Lin Xia made his choice.

Although the Sincerity Legion's Crucible Battle Array was extremely powerful, allowing a collective of professionals mostly in their twenties to weave back and forth through medium-sized demonic tides with formidable strength,

if not for the existence of the Crucible Battle Array, the Ningcheng defense line would likely have shattered on the very day the Level 40 abyss monsters appeared.

After all, without aggregated power capable of causing a qualitative change, no matter how numerous the forces were, if they could not even break the defense of high-level abyss monsters, what use was mere quantity?

However, the Crucible Battle Array could be acquired directly through legitimate channels. Compared to that, a bronze-tier talent was far more capable of capturing his attention.

Bronze-tier talents might not seem like much to ordinary professionals.

Yet the trait increments brought by The Loyal would allow him to better master the development of his subordinate forces in subsequent simulations.

Most importantly, talent was a power inherent to oneself.

When given a choice and when other items were not as precious, one must definitely prioritize strengthening one's own abilities.

Besides, starting from the perspective of preciousness, talent star-upgrade stones were exceedingly expensive as well.

"Buzz, buzz, buzz..."

An invisible wave of energy materialized out of thin air within Lin Xia's body.

In an instant, his bones roared in resonance.

Feeling the turbulent, mighty power surging through his body, a wave of inexplicable pleasure welled up in his heart.

Under the evolution of life, that instinctual joy and exhilaration were awakened once more.

Amidst this euphoric emotion, Lin Xia felt his body growing stronger and stronger, while the bronze-colored battle qi energy within him slowly transitioned toward silver battle qi.

"Hoo..."

A while later, Lin Xia slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of stale air.

The next moment, his professional character panel appeared before him.

[Name: Lin Xia]

[Level: 27 (26+1)]

[Profession: Silver Warrior]

[Equipment: Thunder Wrath Set (Lowest Epic Grade)]

[Passive Skills: Critical Strike, Silver Battle Qi (Level +1)]

[Active Skill: Life Genesis]

[Talent: The Loyal]

[Life Tier: Second Tier]

His current character panel could hardly be described as anything less than formidable.

An ordinary third-transition professional, even with the dual enhancements brought by level suppression, would find the outcome of a fight uncertain.

After all, a professional's combat power level was directly related to their equipment, skills, and inscriptions.

A lower-level individual equipped with high-quality gear and skills could still easily slay a high-level professional.

Of course, if the difference in professional levels was too vast, the outcome would not be certain.

Generally speaking, however, the equipment and skills of high-level professionals were never too shabby.

After all, those without the support of a family or faction could hardly reach very high professional levels.

"Merely three simulations have provided me with such a luxurious character panel."

The corners of Lin Xia's lips curled up slightly. "If I were to run simulations dozens or even hundreds of times, I wouldn't dare imagine just how luxurious this character panel would become."

As he indulged in this pleasant reverie, he glanced at the simulator interface.

It was this single glance that caused the smile on his face to rapidly vanish.

[Simulation Status: Cooling Down]

[Unsealing Cost: 1,040 Destiny Points]

"This unsealing cost..."

Lin Xia took a deep breath. Last time it was twenty times his level, and this time it had doubled to forty times his professional level.

Good grief!

If it continued to multiply like this, wouldn't the destiny points required to initiate a simulation in the future become an astronomical figure?

Even so, Lin Xia immediately began pondering how to rapidly harvest destiny points.

In other words, how could he use his current strength to influence more people?

"In the simulations, influencing more people relied on salvation."

"Yet in reality, if one wishes to influence more people using the power of an individual alone, there is only one method... slaughter!"

"Causing a county or a city to descend into complete chaos would certainly affect the destinies of countless people to the greatest possible extent."

"Throwing Jiangcheng's administrative organs into turmoil, slaughtering the livelihood industries... Does the Federation even care about livelihood industries in this world?"

"Or rather, do purely peaceful livelihood industries even exist?"

"Yet in a sense, maintaining social order is difficult; it requires considering all aspects and expending massive efforts and costs to maintain an area in a harmonious atmosphere."

"But destroying a stable social atmosphere is far too simple."

Thinking this, Lin Xia shook his head slightly.

This train of thought was a bit too extreme and might negatively impact his subsequent simulation progression.

Furthermore, the Federation's Wisdom Net blanketed everything from above.

Engaging in petty theft, killing a few people, or burning down a few mountains probably wouldn't matter much.

However, if he were to directly eliminate key federal officials of an entire city, the Wisdom Net would undoubtedly push its computing power to the absolute limit to hunt him down.

"The destiny points required in the future will only increase, but fortunately there is still one free opportunity every month. At least I have a safety net."

Lin Xia clicked his tongue lightly. "Thinking about it that way, it's not bad at all."

"After all!"

"He who is content is always happy!"
