Take Shokuhou Misaki, for example. Her mental abilities were undeniably powerful, but if she were caught off guard and someone took a super-long-range sniper shot at her, no matter how strong she was, with no chance to use her abilities, she would still be weak... After all, her body was still quite fragile.
"Then why did you set up levels like this...? Bored?" After hearing Jiu Ming's explanation, Shokuhou Misaki could not help asking.
"Of course levels have a purpose. Raising them won't make you stronger, but it will let you fight stronger 'monsters,'" Jiu Ming said with a light laugh. This had been part of the plan from the beginning. Never mind the Mysterious Shop—even the Card Collection Book in Jiu Ming's own hands contained quite a few things that could make ordinary people stronger.
So there was no need to follow traditional game settings... Besides, this was not a game.
Furthermore, having no so-called leveling system to grow stronger would not only make Invitation Card holders feel this place was more real, but also spur their enthusiasm...
That brought up the setting of these so-called "levels." Jiu Ming had already run experiments on dispersing Twisted Aberrations, and it was indeed viable. When a Twisted Aberration was eliminated by the purification mechanism, it did not vanish completely. It would either directly and randomly generate a new Sealed Card, or, through the Mysterious Shop's operation, skip that step and transform into the most basic "Source."
This portion of Source would be split into three shares. One share would become the "experience points" for the purification vessel's growth; another would be materialized by the Mysterious Shop into a kind of "currency" that carried Source; and the final share would be randomly transformed into the items that supposedly "dropped."
Under normal circumstances,
