If you're dead, then you're dead.
Without enough corpses and lives, how can a true strongman emerge?
Only those humans who have truly emerged from mountains of corpses and seas of blood can satisfy Xu Zhiyi.
Therefore, the sacrifices made by the Self-Salvation Association are not necessarily true sacrifices, but rather have the connotation of being a "reserve force".
When one person dies, another will follow.
This is a new round of fierce fighting, a real battle that keeps bringing us closer to the truth.
"Promotion from Zone C to Zone B will lead to true death, so what about Zone A? What are the new mechanisms?"
When Su Lin asked, Xu Zhiyi didn't hold back and answered frankly, "Stepping onto the edge of the system to make final preparations."
She didn't go into the specifics of Area A's mechanisms, but her answer revealed and confirmed Su Lin's suspicions.
What about Sector S?
Su Lin squinted his eyes. He remembered that the final district level was announced at the beginning of the competition, and it was SSS district level.
"Stepping outside the established mechanisms."
Xu Zhiyi looked at Su Lin with some surprise, then pointed at Xiao Linlin: "Didn't she say?"
"Some analyses suggest that humanity uses blood sacrifices to fight for freedom."
Su Lin looked at Xiao Linlin and said calmly, "I think we should fight against other things, such as those ghostly things in the arena."
"Of course, that's the meaning of the cage's existence."
Xu Zhiyi smiled and agreed: "This is the strength of the S zone. It's a pity you haven't failed to advance yet. This is much faster than I expected."
Therefore, necessary adjustments need to be made to concentrate future resources more effectively in order to cope with a faster pace of development than anticipated.
Everything, all for the sake of the cage.
Is it to break it down, to reinforce it, or... simply for a bountiful harvest?
Su Lin remained silent, not asking any further questions, but instead gave Xu Zhiyi a deep look.
Although this woman wasn't always by his side, she seemed to have a firm grasp on his every move, always managing to come up with something new to satisfy him in order to maintain the fragile connection between them.
Everything unfolded as the woman had predicted. To learn more, one had to go to a higher-level waiting area and use greater strength to gain the right to know.
At the same time, she knew she couldn't stop herself, so she made sure to move forward more smoothly.
only...
Su Lin was still unsure of her true identity.
"Sir, I think you probably have no further questions."
Xu Zhiyi tossed her hair aside and smiled slightly: "Perhaps we should cooperate again, especially in this promotion match. Wouldn't that be in your best interest?"
"Yes, that's a perfect match."
Su Lin nodded slowly: "Confront the deception and get closer to the truth."
"What?"
Xu Zhiyi tilted her head, a hint of doubt in her eyes. Su Lin slowly shook his head without speaking, but simply raised his hand to signal her to release the sealed information space.
Xu Zhiyi raised her hand with a smile, just as she was about to retract the card and put away its power.
Sudden.
Su Lin asked, "What is the purpose of this mechanism?"
"You have the answer, but I cannot explain it."
Xu Zhiyi paused for a moment, then shook her head and politely declined.
Is this something that cannot be said, or something that cannot be explained?
Su Lin didn't really care, staring into her eyes as he quickly asked his second question: "One last question, are you [us]?"
"Me?"
Xu Zhiyi smiled slightly, and the card in her hand began to dim the surrounding light: "Sir, I am human, and always have been."
As the light slowly entered the card, the noise in the waiting area returned. Xu Zhiyi nodded politely to Su Lin: "Thank you for your generosity and sincerity, Mr. Su. I hope our cooperation will be pleasant."
After saying that, she turned and left gracefully, her followers quickly following behind.
"Brother, you're back?"
Xiao Linlin tentatively reached out and grabbed Su Lin's sleeve, muttering softly, "What an amazing ability. This doesn't meet the standard of SSS-level talent at all. It's too special and comprehensive."
During that time, Xiao Linlin was not only unable to communicate with Su Lin, but she was also unable to actually touch him.
Although they were only one step apart, it felt as if they were in two completely separate spatial fragments.
"No, it's an innate ability."
Su Lin slowly shook his head, feeling the deepest: "She is still a survivor, using her innate ability... Linlin, the one I imprisoned, she didn't ask, she doesn't know exactly what happened."
"She didn't know, but she didn't ask too many questions."
Su Lin was referring to the Demon Lord, that cunning old fox who was also an SSS-level talent and almost managed to assassinate Su Lin.
SSS-level talents have extremely powerful effects, but their weaknesses are mostly subtle, making them more difficult to deal with than most talents. Only talents of the same level can counteract and influence each other.
It was the appearance of the Demon Lord that caused chaos in the Sword Pavilion world, giving Su Lin the opportunity to recruit Li Xingtian.
The disruption to the future rhythm that Xu Zhiyi referred to was mostly due to the Sword Pavilion world and Li Xingtian, but she could only roughly guess that a major accident had occurred in Su Lin's match, without knowing the specifics of what happened.
Xu Zhiyi might not even know about the existence of the Demon Lord, which means she might not know about all the SSS-level survivors.
In conclusion, Xu Zhiyi does not possess power beyond her status as a survivor; she is still influencing the future in the manner of a survivor.
This aligns with her final answer to the question, making Su Lin more inclined to believe that she is "one of us."
Of course, Su Lin was still unsure of Xu Zhiyi's ultimate goal.
