Ji Yan's expression changed.
Related to Blue Star?!
"How about it? That little piece of insider information of mine is pretty valuable, right?" Kong Yi said with a smile.
Ji Yan narrowed his eyes. "Where did you get that insider information?"
Kong Yi shrugged. "Back when my 'Reuse Rate' reached 96%, I interacted with [Night Burial Maitreya] so often that we were practically buddies."
"I coaxed it out of him."
Ji Yan: "..."
"How is it related?"
Kong Yi shook his head. "That, I don't know."
"But from what I know, that 'final reward' is in [Night Burial Maitreya]'s hands. Only players who meet his standards have a chance of receiving it."
Ji Yan looked thoughtful upon hearing that. "Then my chances..."
"Your chances aren't great either."
Before Ji Yan could finish, Kong Yi poured cold water on him. "Even if you perform exceptionally on the 'Final Battlefield,' you still won't get it."
"Because, from what I also know, that 'final reward' requires the Black and White Chess Boss to surrender a significant portion of his own benefits before it can be exchanged for a player. It's basically an evil little Easter egg in the Dungeon Order."
"So unless you use some special method or clear the dungeon with a perfect score, that 'final reward' is out of reach!"
Ji Yan's expression grew contemplative, as though he were considering something...
Seeing his expression, Kong Yi gave a faint scoff. "Wait, you're actually thinking about it?"
Ji Yan asked in return, "Aren't you?"
Kong Yi yawned.
He looked up at the blood-red dome, his gaze shifting a few times as he dug at his ear. "Honestly, rather than returning to that godforsaken place called the real world..."
"I'd rather stay in the Eerie World."
That statement left plenty to the imagination...
