That's not my world. I was just born there by chance. I was born to be a servant of the great Lord of the Universe!
The well-established rules of the Shadow Plane, and Leo's complete mastery of them, granted Leo abilities that seemed miraculous to ordinary life forms.
In essence, it's just about exploiting the rules; simply changing the rules can grant life different abilities.
With his understanding of the rules as Level-Five Stigmata Wizard, Leo could even cultivate a group of children with exceptionally high talents in the Shadow Plane.
The logic is simple: by subtly altering the rules children learn before they are born, one can pre-determine their talents after birth.
However, this ability can only be used in the Shadow Plane and not in other worlds because Leo can only fully control the rules of the Shadow Plane; he cannot use it in other worlds.
After Leo returned to the mothership with satisfaction, Yaoyao did not follow. Instead, she remained in the Shadow Plane, wanting to see what other good things the Snow Elf might have teleported over.
Leo ignored him; he'd come back when he was done playing!
Several years passed in the blink of an eye. All the puppets in the Thousand Pools World were cleared out, and the wizard army began to restore the ecological environment of the Thousand Pools World according to Leo's orders. They even had some wizards specializing in ecology cultivate creatures that were suitable for the environment of the Thousand Pools World.
This was the first medium-sized world he had acquired, Leo took it very seriously, sparing no effort to mobilize all available manpower to carry out ecological restoration work.
This kind of mission is certainly not what one would expect in war, everyone could see that, but no one dared to say anything, after all, even several Stigmata Wizard had been sent by Leo to participate in the repair mission.
Just as Leo was immersed in his rapid increase in strength, the Fate Wizard Book suddenly sent a message.
Leo opened it and saw it was a message from the War Command.
War Command,
It is a department specifically established to fight against the Returning Breath World Cluster. It is full of Level-Six Stigmata Great Wizard. They do not usually send out messages, but every time they do, it is always the most important information or mission.
Leo was only qualified to access the War Command after becoming a captain.
[ Atomic Control Stigmata Wizard, based on war feedback, you possess the power to instantly kill Level-Five Lord of Souls and the ability to destroy a planet. A special mission is hereby issued based on your strength.]
Below this message are two short videos. One shows Leo using nuclear fusion to detonate Level-Five Lord of Souls in front of the black vortex.
Another scene shows two stars in the sky, precisely the moment Leo controlled the entire Death Star's Metal Fusion.
The moment Leo saw the message and the two videos, he had a bad feeling. The immediate praise and the presentation of facts were meant to prevent him from making excuses to shut him up; the task ahead would definitely be difficult.
[Information incorrect. I have just advanced and do not possess the strength to instantly kill Level-Five Lord of Souls. That instance of killing Level-Five Lord of Souls was a coincidence. As for destroying a planet, that's even more impossible. The planet's explosion stemmed from my experiment going out of control, not something I could have consciously controlled.]
Leo immediately explained.
[Needless to say, we have investigated thoroughly and there was no misjudgment.]
[A troublesome Level-Four Lord of Souls has appeared in the Forest Farm World. We have decided to destroy the Forest Farm World Forest Farm World, kill all the Lord of Souls and their puppet army, and you will be tasked with this mission.]
[No need for further explanation. The other Level-Six Stigmata Great Wizard are all busy with their own missions. Your Thousand Pools World has already repelled all the Lord of Souls and has nothing else to do. We will send the Golden Eye Piercing Illusions Stigmata Wizard with you to lock onto the Lord of Souls and prevent him from hiding and escaping.]
When Leo heard that the mission was to destroy the Forest Farm World, he wanted to refuse again. He had previously seen in intelligence reports that a Stigmata Great Wizard had suggested directly destroying the Forest Farm World and killing the clone Black Soluo, but he never expected that this mission would fall on his shoulders.
However, when Leo saw that the Golden Eye Piercing Illusions Stigmata Wizard was to accompany him, he immediately understood.
The mission to destroy the Forest Farm World was a ruse; the real purpose was for the Golden Eye Piercing Illusions Stigmata Wizard to reveal his true intentions. This was the result of his selfless battle against the Level-Six Lord of Souls, and now the Golden Eye Piercing Illusions Stigmata Wizard was about to make his move.
[I understand. I'll contact the Forest Farm World and get there as quickly as possible.]
[During the war, there's no need to waste time traveling. Command will directly activate inter-world teleportation to transport you and the Golden Eye Piercing Illusions Stigmata Wizard outside the Forest Farm World.]
Okay, I'll set off once everything's arranged.
Looking at the information in the Fate Wizard Book, Leo sneered. The power of the Golden Eye Piercing Illusions was truly immense, enabling the War Command to directly activate inter-world teleportation. Just how anxious were they?
Leo closed his eyes and entered his own sea of consciousness. Shortly after leaving a message in the sea of consciousness of his clone Black Soluo, Black Soluo's consciousness also appeared in the sea of consciousness.
"What's wrong?" asked Black Soluo, the clone.
Leo immediately recounted what had happened on his end.
"You want to use me to kill him?"
Upon hearing this Black Soluo, the clone, immediately understood Leo's thoughts.
"No, your outward appearance shows you're only at level four, which is too weak. No one will believe you killed Golden Eye Piercing Illusions. Only Supreme Lord Ruler could have done it," Leo said.
This mission was Golden Eye Piercing Illusions's ultimate move to reveal his true intentions, but it was also his way of killing Golden Eye Piercing Illusions.
According to the rules of the wizarding civilization, wizards are not allowed to kill each other. Even if Leo wanted to kill Golden Eye Piercing Illusions, he could not do it himself.
"It's a bit difficult for the Supreme Lord to make a move... I need to give it a try," the clone Black Soluo said with some difficulty.
"If a Golden Eye Piercing Illusions Stigmata Wizard doesn't Supreme Lord, then you should leak my information. With me and the Golden Eye Piercing Illusions Saint, the probability of the Supreme Lord personally intervening will be extremely high."
In order to find a plausible way to cover up the death of Golden Eye Piercing Illusions, Leo was even willing to use himself as bait.
"Isn't this a bit too dangerous?"
"How can I kill him if he's not dangerous? In my mind, he's more dangerous than the Supreme Lord."
Leo recalled the countless times Golden Eye Piercing Illusions had looked at him with that kind of gaze, like the frenzied look of a hungry beast searching for food, willing to do anything.
Having finally managed to lure him into attacking him, Leo would absolutely not let him leave alive.
If Golden Eye Piercing Illusions Wang leaves alive, otherwise, given his background, he will definitely not let me off easily.
"I understand. I'll go make the arrangements. Wait for my notification."
Black Soluo, the clone, hurriedly left the sea of consciousness to find a suitable reason to pass on the information about Leo and the Golden Eye Piercing Illusions Stigmata Wizard to the Supreme Lord of the Returning Breath World.
When Leo opened his eyes after his consciousness returned to his body, he saw Yaoyao returning from the Shadow Space and standing on his shoulder.
"How are things going with the Snow Elf?"
"Two years ago, he successfully advanced to level three with the blessing of the Shadow Plane rules, and now he has become the candidate for the next Snow Elf clan leader. Because of his tough stance on the Black Domain World, he is highly regarded as the next clan leader," Yaoyao said with a smile.
He had been staying in the Shadow Plane, enjoying the nurturing feeling of the game, watching the Snow Elf continuously improve their strength under his command and wreak havoc. It was like watching a thrilling drama, very similar to the overpowered characters in novels.
Especially those hierarchical restrictions that could imprison other life forms for decades or even a lifetime, were directly and violently broken through by him using the Power of Laws. The Snow Elf have completely submitted to the feet of the great Lord of the Universe.
"He must have transferred a lot of resources over the years, right?"
Leo smiled. He had empowered the Snow Elf with the Power of Laws, and he knew how much energy it would take for Snow Elf that was only at level two to level three to upgrade, and the resources needed to exchange for that energy were an enormous number.
"Hey-hey,"
Yaoyao raised one of her little paws.
"Resources worth over a million energy crystals—their world is truly wealthy. They possess many top-tier ice-type resources. If he becomes the clan leader, he can mobilize even more resources, and we'll be rich."
Upon hearing the figure of one million energy crystals, Leo stared at Yaoyao in shock.
He hadn't paid much attention to things in the Shadow Plane in recent years, but upon hearing that the Snow Elf had spent a million energy crystals to advance to level three,
This number is enough not only for a life form in an ordinary world, but also for someone to advance to the level of Level Three Great Wizard!
A level 2 Snow Elf can produce resources worth one million energy crystals; they are truly wealthy. It's a pity they're too busy right now, otherwise they would definitely launch an expedition to conquer the Snowfield World!
"Let's ignore him for now, Golden Eye Piercing Illusions has made his move." Leo then recounted the events to Yaoyao.
"That's great, perfect for settling all the accounts at once," Yaoyao said fiercely, sticking out her little paw.
Another six months passed, and despite repeated urging from the War Command, Leo remained unmoved. No matter what the War Command said or how much they pleaded, Leo refused to leave.
Golden Eye Piercing Illusions also received a mission and hovered around Leo every day, seemingly fully prepared to go to the Forest Farm World. However, Leo acted as if he didn't see him and remained glued to his chair, refusing to budge no matter what anyone said.
Just as the War Command issued more than a dozen reprimanding orders in succession, Leo suddenly stood up.
He said to the Interstellar Wanderer, "I'm leaving the Thousand Pools World to you for defense. Wait for our return."
"Yes, Captain," the Interstellar Wanderer replied.
The mission to destroy the Forest Farm World has been in place for so long that everyone knows about it.
"Can't wait any longer? We can go now."
Leo smiled knowingly at Golden Eye Piercing Illusions, making a double entendre.
"I'll do whatever the captain says."
The Golden Eye Piercing Illusions Stigmata Wizard narrowed his three eyes, his gaze fixed on Leo like a bee landing on a flower stamen, unable to look away.
