The situation had been so incredible that very few people had speculated this way. But now, things were different. With the appearance of the third sound of the great path, many began to suspect that the individuals who triggered the first and third sounds were likely the same person. And if one were to assume these two were indeed the same person, then this individual’s leveling efficiency would be inexplicably fast.
There were only two possible explanations for such rapid leveling! First, they had killed red-named individuals, thereby obtaining half of their total Experience points. Second, they had defeated a wild team BOSS many levels above their own, gaining a massive experience boost.
According to the announcement of the second sound of the great path, the second possibility had just been confirmed by the Heavenly Dao. And if the person who acplished this was also the trigger of the third sound of the great path, then the theory that one person triggered all three sounds of the great path became quite plausible.
Of course, this was only a conjecture bining various possibilities. Alternatively, if the trigger of the first sound of the great path had leveled up quickly by killing red-named individuals, that was also a reasonable explanation—perhaps even more plausible than the hypothesis that one person triggered all three sounds. For now, the mainstream conjecture was that the same person triggered the first and third sounds, while the trigger for the second remained uncertain.
...
At this moment, on the Alien side, Rangu was also somewhat stunned.
Again!?
However, no matter how shocked he was, as the general mander of the Earth bat Department, his mind was, naturally, far sharper than average. He quickly identified some issues from the three sounds of the great path.
He promptly pressed his strange wristwatch. With the appearance of an unintelligible circular virtual keyboard, Rangu swiftly typed in a long string of peculiar characters.
Some time later, he looked at the results!
"There’s a 99% probability that the first and third sounds of the great path were triggered by the same person! The probability that the same individual triggered all three sounds is also above 60%!"
A woman beside Rangu spoke up, "Sir, this result seems to be a good thing."
"Indeed. Dealing with one rising powerhouse is naturally easier than dealing with three," Rangu nodded. "Our previous plan remains unchanged: 90% of our personnel will investigate the wild team BOSS incident, while the remaining 10% will continue to investigate newly awakened high-star professionals!
"These three sounds of the great path have been triggered so frequently; the amount of information they contain is already very high. It shouldn’t be too difficult to find the main person responsible. Even with interference from Earth’s higher-ups, it will only delay things a little!"
Initially, hearing two sounds of the great path had filled Rangu with shock and a greater sense of crisis. But the appearance of this third sound actually calmed him down.
Two targets that were originally unconnected now inexplicably showed a high probability of being linked. If it truly is one person, then even if it costs a great deal to eliminate someone possessing multiple SSS-level rewards, it would still be very worthwhile.
...
After triggering the sound of the great path thrice, Chen Mo was accustomed to it. He calmly reviewed The Heavenly Path’s Hints.
[The Heavenly Path’s Hint: It has been detected that you have collected two divine artifact ponents. If you find a third divine artifact ponent, you will be forcibly and automatically assigned the Above SSS-level death petition task - "Divine Power"! If you do not wish to trigger this task, please choose to relinquish the third divine artifact ponent when you obtain it.]
Two divine artifact ponents? Haven’t I only collected one so far? Could it be that the mythical-grade equipment ’Stellar Shift’ I just acquired is also a divine artifact ponent?
However, this hint is really scary. Once three ponents are obtained, I’ll be forced to accept an SSS-level death petition task.
So-called death petition tasks were all tasks involving relentless petition between professionals, often to the death. Often, they were triggered because crucial ponents for certain tasks were in the hands of different people. Once multiple professionals who had triggered the task were within the same large-scale map, they could sense each other’s coordinates. Then, it would bee a situation of "the weak are prey to the strong."
For example, with Chen Mo’s task, according to the hint, it was highly probable that once all three related items were collected, these three items would bee forcibly bound, only dropping entirely upon death. It was an absolutely fight-to-the-death scenario.
Looking at this treacherous task hint, Chen Mo couldn’t help but feel that the two mythical-grade equipment in his hands had bee a bit too hot to handle. However, there was no need to worry before collecting the third divine artifact ponent. Mythical-grade equipment was already difficult to obtain, and with so many different types, it wasn’t as if one could coincidentally acquire matching divine artifact ponents every time.
He continued to look at The Heavenly Path’s Hints below.
[The Heavenly Path’s Hint: Congratulations on receiving extra rewards from the great path. You have obtained the mythical-grade equipment "The Turbid God’s Heart"!]
[The Heavenly Path’s Hint: Your Level has increased, current Level 11!]
After reviewing all the hints, Chen Mo immediately checked the effects of the rewards he had received.
[Stellar Shift • Mythical-grade]
[Passive Effect]: When carried, a Stellar Shift Shield covers the user. While the shield is active, any control or abnormal status effects the user suffers will automatically be transferred to a random nearby enemy unit. If the shield is lost, a new shield is gained every 10 seconds, and this shield lasts permanently. (Effective even when in the backpack)
[Active Effect]: When activated, all damaging effects from an attack on the holder can be redirected to the attacker themselves, lasting for 3 seconds. Cooldown: 30 seconds. (Can be activated even when in the backpack)
[Important Note]: This item is an important ponent of a certain divine artifact. Handle with care!
[Item Introduction]: A treasure created by a powerful existence, according to rumors. It was originally intended as a core ponent for a divine artifact but was lost to the mortal realm during the upheaval of the great Dao. If you happen to find it, please store it with utmost care. In the future, you might be able to find that divine artifact and regain astonishing Divine Power!
Indeed, it’s this ’Stellar Shift.’ Although it will lead to a death petition, its effects are truly highly practical! With the Space-Time Pearl and Stellar Shift, if they really e, it seems I wouldn’t need to be afraid?
As he said this, Chen Mo immediately shook his head with a smile; he had, it seemed, habitually overlooked the opponent’s bat strength. If the opponent also triggered the task, wouldn’t they also possess three mythical-grade equipment? Their power would likely be no less than what he had.
This will be difficult!
No longer dwelling on this matter, Chen Mo looked at the second mythical-grade equipment.
[The Turbid God’s Heart • Mythical-grade]
[Item Effects]: After consumption, there is a 50% chance of immediate death and a 50% chance of gaining divinity.
[Item Introduction]: A Heart of God contaminated by malevolent energy. It is best to purify the malevolent energy before consuming it.
[Item Related Task]: Available
