"A fifth order mission?"
Lin An's gaze sharpened, and he couldn't help feeling taken aback.
He had never expected Andrew to have returned from a fifth order mission too! It wasn't exactly shocking news to him, but it certainly came as a surprise.
No wonder Andrew's strength had skyrocketed. No wonder he had even brought back a war star level corpse!
But almost immediately, Lin An frowned again.
Something wasn't right. If Andrew really had returned from a fifth order mission, how could he know nothing about combat power beyond the fifth order?
And unless he had encountered special circumstances like Lin An's, Andrew should have reached the fifth order by the time he came out.

"Strictly speaking, the mission I entered wasn't actually fifth order. It only counted as half of one."
"It was a mission that even Planet Destroyer Level beings-Fifth Order Intermediate beings-would fear! Part of the special instance I entered was located at the entrance to that mission!"
"You can't imagine how terrifying it was. You're certainly powerful now, but in that mission, I saw over a hundred fifth order corpses at the entrance alone!"

"If I hadn't died in there, if I hadn't abandoned my body and everything else, how could I have lost so easily!"
Staring fixedly at Lin An, Andrew suddenly
