Saving this world was also a rehearsal for Chen Luo regarding the problems of his mother world.
After reaching the True Transformation Domain level, Chen Luo's power had expanded to the point where he could pull a world into his domain, transforming it into a special divine kingdom territory.
Among these, what Chen Luo wanted to test was the attitude of the Doomsday Game towards such actions.
It seemed that as long as one did not genuinely intend to destroy the world, it would not trigger the Doomsday Game's strong resistance like the Dark Demon.
However, he still had to pay a ransom.
Looking at the "Chains of War," a peculiar item drifting alone in the River of Void before him, Chen Luo tried to collect or destroy it, but failed, so he simply stopped bothering with it.
Anyway, after the ninth game world became his divine kingdom territory, it had completely shed its mark.
Above the River of Boundless Void, which had returned to calm, the golden-red giant slowly dissipated, and the golden land suspended higher up also faded into the realm of reality and illusion.
The dissipating light of the giant transformed into countless golden-red star points, and amidst the encirclement of these star points, a young man clad in a silver-grey trench coat stood in mid-air above the River of Void. xxs one
Chen Luo cast a final glance at the eternal River of Void and said in a deep voice:
"System, send me back!"
Buzz!
An invisible and formless great power suddenly appeared from nothingness, transforming into a pure white giant hand.
Chen Luo, who was considered a powerhouse even in this River of Void, was instantly grasped by the giant hand before he could even react.
It felt like an eternity had passed, or perhaps it was just an instant. Chen Luo's vision flickered, and the next moment, a familiar giant planet appeared before his eyes.
The planet before him was at least ten times the size of World Nine, and the world's fetal membrane evolved from the Great Source on its outer layer was so thick that it was visible to the naked eye.
However, compared to the thin but complete world's fetal membrane of World Nine, the outer protective membrane of Chen Luo's mother world was densely covered with cracks that kept appearing.
Along these cracks, the middle layer void's nothingness world was constantly trying to erode and seize everything in this world.
Before Chen Luo could get a closer look, a terrifying suction force also came towards him from the surrounding void, and all the energy and matter within Chen Luo's body felt an urge to penetrate outwards.
"Hmph! Suppress it for me!" Chen Luo's mind flickered, and a pure, indestructible radiance flashed across his body.
The True Transformation Domain level already gave him the ability to barely survive in the middle layer void.
And the moment Chen Luo stabilized himself, the system's prompt appeared again:
[Conqueror Chen Luo has successfully returned, and this conquest mission will be settled soon.]
[Detected that Conqueror Chen Luo has completed the Void-level Special World Mission: Shadow of Civilization! Shadow of History! Mission evaluation has increased.]
[Detected that Conqueror Chen Luo has completed the World-level Mission: Final Evolution... Mission evaluation has increased.]
[Detected that the abnormal factor of World Nine, Nine Dragon Company, has been eliminated... Mission evaluation has significantly increased.]
[Detected that the manifestation of Lord Long Jiu, who intended to devour the world, has been repelled... Mission evaluation has greatly increased.]
[The final evaluation for this conquest mission is: Perfect.]
[Mission Summary]:
The existence of Explorers is to help the Doomsday Game find suitable worlds to incorporate into the game.
The existence of Conquerors is to help the game deal with game worlds that have abnormal tendencies.
As a nascent Conqueror, although the game must give you a perfect evaluation based on the underlying rules.
However, the game cannot praise your action of destroying the target world in the end.
[Mission Reward]: Permission Upgrade!
[Based on your repelling of a super-large anomaly and your contribution in the River of Destiny to obstruct Lord Long Jiu's subsequent plans, your permission upgrade this time is significant!]
[Congratulations on your "Conqueror Qualification" being promoted to "Judge Qualification."]
The qualification of a Judge is roughly similar to that of a Conqueror. Chen Luo can still ask the system to randomly teleport him to a target world with a mission.
Or use world coordinates to select different worlds.
However, Chen Luo now understood that unlike casual Explorers.
Conquerors and Judges tend to go to worlds that have some problems.
Thinking back, among the three world options before, World Nine was the weakest.
But even there, Chen Luo encountered an opponent like a Great Lord's manifestation.
If Chen Luo had chosen the other two, he might have been in grave danger.
The authority of a Judge is mostly similar to that of a Conqueror, but it comes with additional information.
[World Judgment: As an emissary of the Doomsday Game, in specific missions, you will become the arbiter of fate for certain worlds.]
....
After briefly understanding his new qualification, Chen Luo, the newly upgraded Judge, looked at the cracks still present on his mother world's fetal membrane and directly asked the Doomsday Game:
"System, if I transform my mother world into a divine kingdom, how much Great Source power do I need to pay as exchange?"
As Chen Luo's voice fell, the light blue system panel vibrated slightly, and the system seemed somewhat surprised by the Conqueror's shamelessness.
You snatched a world enhanced by the game from my hands, and now you're asking me how much it costs?
This is like forcing your way in!
But the Judge's authority in the Doomsday Game was not low. After a slight tremor, the entire system panel displayed new prompts:
[Warning! The Doomsday Game strongly discourages interference with the game's progress!]
[Prompt! The Doomsday Game does not truly intend to destroy the world! As long as the world is willing to follow the Doomsday Game's progression, worlds that reach the end will obtain everything!]
[Inquiry! Does Judge Chen Luo still wish to continue consulting?]
Chen Luo frowned. Ever since the Dark Demon Great Lord was expelled by the Doomsday Game, Chen Luo knew that the game and the Great Lords might not have the same goals.
Moreover, those invading races that clearly intended to exterminate indigenous civilizations and then raise humans were obviously the work of the Great Lords.
And the Doomsday Game, which invested so much effort and provided different player qualifications for different worlds based on difficulty, surely did not aim for direct destruction.
But this time, under Chen Luo's forceful demand, the system actually revealed part of the game's purpose.
"So, the Doomsday Game's goal is to select worlds that can withstand trials and survive to the end?"
"And as the game progresses through its acts, worlds that can persist will gain the so-called 'everything'? Is this some kind of mutated survival version of One Piece?!"
"Game, then let me ask you? As of now, have any worlds reached your so-called end? And what happens to those worlds and players if they fail?"
As Chen Luo's questions continued, the system panel began to tremble again, and the previously displayed text started to disappear line by line.
After a period of silence from the panel, new text reappeared.
[Detected that Player Chen Luo possesses Judge Qualification, and partial information is allowed to be unlocked.]
[In the game rounds that have passed so far, no world has reached the end.]
[All worlds that enter the game, while enjoying powerful conveniences, will also endure infinite trials. Failures in the game will return to the great cycle of the void.]
The cold text narrated the cruel essence of the game. The game continuously pulled worlds deeper into the void, and worlds that could not withstand the trials ultimately had only destruction as their fate.
Chen Luo's eyes turned cold, and he decisively said:
"Tell me, how much Great Source is needed to redeem my mother world?!"
