Chapter 1096

Li Yuanbai chuckled and said, "Indeed, thanks to Young Friend Lin, many people were saved."

It had only been about ten days since the manor appeared, and already over 1,600 people had died.

Moreover, people kept arriving, wave after wave.

The Human Emperor Network estimated that the duration of this manor's appearance should be around 300 days.

In 300 days, many people would enter, and even more would die.

Li Yuanbai looked at the manor, "That said, do you think Young Friend Lin might be hiding something?"

Divine Sovereign Wang Xing glared at Li Yuanbai, "Old man Li, what nonsense are you spouting?"

Lin Moyu had saved his life; although he was good friends with Li Yuanbai, he would not allow him to speak casually about his savior.

Li Yuanbai chuckled, "I was just speaking casually. Even if he is hiding something, it is normal. Who among us doesn't have a few secrets?"

Divine Sovereign Wang Xing stopped talking. He did not deny that what Li Yuanbai said actually had some truth to it.

But he did not like hearing it.

…

In the pitch-black starry sky a million kilometers away from the manor, a hazy shadow stood there.

Its existence absorbed all light, causing the distant starry sky to dim.

Any light passing by it would be absorbed and disappear.

It was not just light; all laws and all energy fluctuations were the same.

No one could discover its existence; even if a God Venerable passed by it, they would not notice anything.

If Lin Moyu were here, through the perspective of his undead, he might be able to see it and recognize it as the middle-aged man he had encountered in the black hole.

The middle-aged man gazed at the manor. In his line of sight, the manor was a different scene.

He saw through the phenomena to the essence, seeing the aura of death lingering in the manor.

At this moment, the aura of death had become unstable and was fluctuating violently.

Looking at it, it was like unpredictable clouds and wind; a storm could descend in the next second.

"It has indeed become unstable. It seems this chaos will end in a few days."

"Is it because the Time Stone was taken away?"

"What exactly happened in the ancient era? What is the root cause of the human race's historical gap?"

"Having obtained so much information, I still cannot deduce what happened back then."

"The Law of Time… if I could control the Law of Time, perhaps I would know."

The middle-aged man's words were filled with countless questions, and finally, his figure gradually disappeared.

…

Lin Moyu was sent back to Fortress No. 1 by Zhu Qiwu.

As soon as he returned to Fortress No. 1, he immediately received a message from the Human Emperor Network.

[Because of saving compatriots, military merit rewarded: 500]

[Because of providing effective information, avoiding large-scale human casualties, military merit rewarded: 1000, contribution: 1 point]

[Because of providing top-secret information, contributing to the human race, military merit rewarded: 2000, contribution: 1 point]

Three rewards popped up in a row, and Lin Moyu couldn't help but feel happy.

A total of 3,500 military merit was obtained; this was not a small amount.

In his last mission, he killed so many enemy races and only obtained 2,300 military merit.

Now, one trip to the manor had yielded 3,000 military merit.

The key was the 2 contribution points. Although he didn't know what contribution points were used for yet, they definitely had great utility, and were even more useful than military merit.

Points were in the hundreds of thousands or millions, military merit was in the hundreds or thousands, but contribution points were 1 point, 2 points…

Things are valuable when they are rare; it was not hard to imagine how great the utility of contribution points was.

After obtaining the military merit and contribution points, Lin Moyu checked his information on the Human Emperor Network.

[Lin Moyu (Honor 8th Rank Warrior)]

[Age: 32]

[Level: True God Tier 5]

[Soul: 4th Grade Peak]

[Potential Evaluation: Legendary]

[Highest Authority: Level 4]

[Comprehensive Strength: God King Stage 4]

[Possessed Points: 3,775,000 (133,850)]

[Possessed Military Merit: 8010]

[Contribution Points: 3]

[Laws Controlled: Undead Law, Law of Slaughter, Lightning Law]

"The Human Emperor Network positioned my comprehensive strength at God King Stage 4. It seems it was based on my slaying of the Prisoner Lion the other day."

At that time, Lin Moyu was only at True God Stage 4 and had not displayed all his strength.

Now he was already at True God Tier 5, and his strength had improved again.

According to his estimation, the Skeleton King was definitely not weaker than a God King Tier 5.

If he went all out, he estimated he could slay a God King Tier 5.

"With the combat power of a God King Stage 4, I should be able to make it onto the combat power ranking…"

With a slight upturn of his lips, Lin Moyu casually opened the Vermilion Bird Star Domain rankings.

Chapter 1182: Handing Over Toys, Over-fulfilling the Mission

potential ranking (Vermilion Bird Star Domain), combat power ranking (Vermilion Bird Star Domain), contribution ranking (Vermilion Bird Star Domain), bounty ranking (Vermilion Bird Star Domain).

The four major rankings were displayed side by side.

Lin Moyu saw his name hanging high at the top of the potential ranking.

There was no surprise in this; Lin Moyu had confidence in his own potential.

Now that he had some understanding of the Great World, there had been very few people in history who could be rated as having legendary potential.

In his era, no one in the Vermilion Bird Star Domain could compete with him.

His gaze skipped over the potential ranking and saw the combat power ranking.

Before this, his name was not on the combat power ranking.

Even though he had slaughtered so many Peak True Gods and even God King Realm enemy races in Area 5-38, he still wouldn't be on the combat power ranking.

The Human Emperor Network was not there, so combat power could not be evaluated.

But after slaying the Prisoner Lion with his sword in Fortress No. 1 last time, Lin Moyu knew he should be on the list.

He had said at the time that he would be able to find his name on the combat power ranking.

Now, sure enough, he found his name on the combat power ranking.

"35th on the Vermilion Bird Star Domain combat power ranking."

Lin Moyu said softly; he saw that he was ranked 35th.

This ranking was not surprising; it could be said to be within reason.

The combat power ranking was the ranking for all cultivators in the Vermilion Bird Star Domain below the God Venerable level and with less than Level 5 authority.

Promoting authority from Level 4 to Level 5 was very slow, requiring a full 1 million points, needing to execute a large number of tasks, and spending a lot of time.

The rewards for each task were not very high; simple tasks only rewarded a few thousand, and difficult tasks rewarded more, but they were time-consuming.

Some people even spent hundreds or thousands of years and still might not complete the upgrade.

During this process, their strength was constantly improving.

A small number of people, by the time they reached Level 5 authority, had already reached God King Stage 4 or even Stage 5 in cultivation.

A God King Tier 5, even if they could not fight above their level, still possessed the combat power of a God King Tier 5.

Of course, actual combat was a different matter.

This also included some people capable of fighting above their level; they might clearly only be at God King Stage 3 but have the combat power of a God King Tier 5.

The combat power ranking only evaluated combat power, not cultivation level.

People like Lin Moyu, who could make the list at True God Tier 5, were few and far between.

Lin Moyu was already satisfied.

He casually checked the cultivator ranked first on the combat power ranking.

The name was Huohuang, and the true combat power was not displayed. Lin Moyu guessed it should be around God King Stage 6 to 7.

Lin Moyu estimated that when he reached True God 7th Rank or 8th Rank, he would be able to reach the first place on the combat power ranking.

Besides the Human Emperor Network evaluating combat power for rankings, there was actually a simpler way to challenge the combat power ranking.

That was to initiate a challenge against people on the list.

As long as you won against the person on the list, you could take their place.

Of course, the other party also had the right to refuse the challenge; it was not something you could just challenge whenever you wanted.

Lin Moyu's attention shifted away from the combat power ranking and onto the contribution ranking.

"Eh, I'm 3rd place now." Lin Moyu was slightly surprised.

With only 3 contribution points, he had already ranked in the top three, but thinking about the difficulty of obtaining contribution points, Lin Moyu didn't feel surprised.

The difficulty of obtaining contributions was much harder than points and military merit; one had to make a great contribution to the human race.

This time, it was because he avoided large-scale human losses that he obtained 1 contribution point.

He also provided top-secret information, which also counted as a great contribution to the human race, obtaining another 1 contribution point.

Lin Moyu guessed that this top-secret information was likely the animal skin.

In fact, the few pieces of animal skin he handed over did not have much useful information recorded on them.

But "not much use" was for him; perhaps it would be useful to the human top brass.

After all, many pieces of information needed to be connected and viewed together.

First place on the three rankings; Lin Moyu still remembered Zhuang Bi's words.

Being first on the three rankings would allow one to harvest a large amount of Power of Belief.

He had the nine-colored dragon soul crystal on him, so he didn't need to worry about impurities in the Power of Belief, so the more Power of Belief, the better.

After reading the rankings, Lin Moyu pondered what to do next, then got up and headed to the Task Center.

On the way, he sent a message to Emperor Qian and learned that Emperor Qian had already returned.

Emperor Qian knew it was Zhu Qiwu who took Lin Moyu away, so he didn't worry about Lin Moyu's safety at all and left with peace of mind.

Originally, Lin Moyu wanted to chat with him about the classification of Human Emperor tasks, but now there was no need to chat.

However, Lin Moyu also knew that the information he left on the Human Emperor Network meant the tasks the Human Emperor Network arranged for him were all combat-oriented tasks.

This happened to fit his needs and was the type of task most suitable for him.

Entering the Task Center, many people were handing in and accepting tasks inside.

Watching the light of the Human Emperor Network constantly falling, some people expressed surprise after completing tasks.

Others let out sighs because their tasks did not meet the standards and their rewards were withheld.

Lin Moyu stood in line, moving forward slowly.
