One month later.
Before the Glieseta Fortress, Yang Tao reached out and placed his hand on a Paladin · Mutant Iron Golem. Countless amounts of Faith Power poured into its body.
However, no matter what, this Paladin-level Iron Golem showed no reaction. Its body was like a bottomless pit, not even showing any special signs.
"How is this possible? With the Faith Power accumulated during this period, two Titans should have appeared by now."
The Emperor and Guilliman were very fast. Now, the Faith Power he collected in one day was more than what he had collected in the previous month.
A fair hand slipped under his collar and into his embrace. Jean leaned over and whispered into his ear, "This energy isn't enough!"
"Hmm?"
Hearing Jean's words, Yang Tao turned his head to look at Jean's beautiful face and asked, somewhat confused, "Before, it took less than half of the Faith Power to create Iron Golem Titan. Why isn't it enough now?"
"It's not creation, it's summoning. The Ultima Iron Golem Titan has always existed. The Faith Power you spent before was only to summon the Titan Soul from the Titan Land. But now, you are using Faith Power to create a new Titan."
Yang Tao was a bit bewildered by Jean's explanation and couldn't help but ask, "Summoning? Do other Titans also exist?"
"That's right. You can try catching a Zombie and using it as a medium. You can summon a Zombie Titan with very little energy."
Hearing this, Yang Tao rolled his eyes at Jean. How bored would he have to be to create trouble for himself?
Without the Ultima Iron Golem Titan, a Zombie Titan could completely abuse him to the point where he wouldn't even think about resurrecting.
"Just one... No, there's also a Snow Golem Titan. Uh, let's forget about the Snow Golem Titan."
Yang Tao suspected that the Snow Golem Titan probably couldn't even defeat the Paladin · Mutant Iron Golem standing next to it.
He grabbed Jean's wrist, pulled her hand out of his embrace, turned around, and forcefully slapped Jean's butt, producing a crisp sound.
The Paladin · Mutant Iron Golem at the side: Although I'm not really human, you can't ignore me like this, can you?
"Jean, let's go back. The energy accumulated during this time is enough to upgrade the Overworld a bit more."
He put his arm around Jean's still slender waist and summoned the wooden door.
Back in the Overworld.
"Upgrade!"
"Upgrade!"
...
After seven consecutive upgrades, Yang Tao temporarily stopped.
It wasn't that he didn't have enough energy. With the Warhammer brand Warp energy battery, he didn't have to worry about energy for now.
The reason he stopped was because a new wooden door had appeared on the Mist Wall.
"The efficiency is quite fast this time!"
A New World represents new opportunities. If he were to cross into a cultivation world, he could then experience the feeling of an immortal touching his head and granting him long life.
Of course, if the immortal didn't touch his head, he wouldn't mind having Iron Golem touch his head instead.
"Jean, I'm going to the New World to take a look. You go home and rest first. You didn't sleep at all last night."
Jean's gaze swept over the wooden door on the wall, then she nodded gently and said, "Then come back early."
"Don't worry!"
With that, Yang Tao directly plunged into the wooden door.
...
A bolt of lightning cut through the dark night sky, followed by a series of rumbling thunder.
Overcast clouds filled the sky. In a wilderness, a wooden house without even a door stood. Suddenly, a wooden door appeared in the position of the wooden house's entrance.
However, the appearance of the wooden door was out of place with the wooden house. With a creak, the wooden door was pushed open, and Yang Tao stepped out from within, standing under the eaves and looking at the continuous drizzle outside.
"It's raining as soon as I arrive..."
He then turned and walked into the wooden house behind him. The furnishings inside the wooden house were extremely simple.
There was only a bed and a table, not even a stool. Some dry grass was spread on the old wooden bed.
"Has this been plundered?"
Unless he dismantled this house, even he wouldn't be able to extract 4 energy points from it.
The broken bed was worth 2 points, and the broken table was worth 1 point.
Yang Tao walked over and sat down on the old wooden bed. Dry grass was laid on the bed board, so it wasn't too hard to sit on.
"I wonder which..."
Just as he was wondering which world this was, a muffled roar came from beside him. Yang Tao turned his head to look:
A completely naked and highly decomposed Zombie crawled out from 'underground'. It stretched out its 'bony' arms to support itself, trying to get up from the ground.
It raised its rotten head, its hollow eyes meeting Yang Tao's gaze directly.
"Slap..."
-1
"What are you looking at?"
Yang Tao slapped the Zombie's face directly, and a golden coin flew out from its head, then into his backpack.
This strange situation stunned Yang Tao.
A thought flashed through his mind: 'This is another game world!'
Suddenly, he remembered the thought that popped into his head when he was in the Terraria world:
'It would be great if the next world was also a world where you fight monsters and get drops...'
It seemed his wish had come true.
While he was dazed, the Zombie, which hadn't gotten any meat but had taken a slap, didn't stay dazed. It struggled to its feet, spread its arms, and fiercely clawed at Yang Tao.
"Slap..."
He slapped the opponent away, and its shriveled body hit the log wall with a thud.
Another golden coin flew out from its body, forming an arc in the air and drilling back into his backpack.
Zombie
HP 30 / 32
"This... Which world is this, exactly?"
There were simply too many worlds with Zombies. Yang Tao, whose butt hadn't even warmed up, stood up again and walked towards the Zombie.
He took out the True Last Sword from his backpack and easily stabbed it into the Zombie's body.
A sound like tearing leather rang out, the Zombie's health bar above its head was cleared, and some items popped out from its corpse.
Attracted by the backpack's pulling force, these things flew directly into Yang Tao's body, and before he could check, a new prompt appeared in his vision.
[Diablo 2 mod activated]
'Diablo 2??'
Yang Tao finally realized. The unmanned wooden house in the desolate wilderness, the continuous rainy weather, the Zombie in the room, the shiny gold coins – all of this was Diablo 2, wasn't it?
'I never thought it would be the world of Diablo. I just dealt with the Warp Chaos Gods, and now three demon lords and four demon kings pop up...'
However, when Yang Tao was young, his favorite game was Diablo. At that time, his family's computer still needed dial-up internet, and the speed was terrifyingly slow...
Even downloading Diablo 2 would take a whole night.
So, single-player games were his first choice.
And Diablo 2, with its adventure, leveling up, and monster-slaying for equipment, was the best way for him to pass the time back then.
"It's quite interesting. It's not bad to re-experience the world of Diablo."
