Chapter 582: Special Reward of the Space
[Limit of Qi and Power]
[Mission Type: Unique, Limit Breaking, Space Restricted]
[Mission Description: You have touched the limit of the path of Qi, touched the existence of the wall. You must break this limit in battle and become the ruler of the path of Qi]
[Mission Reward: Authority of Qi and Power * 1] (Each Reincarnator can only trigger the energy limit-breaking mission once. Subsequently obtaining other types of energy cannot acquire this mission and reward through the Space again)
Kaito Shirogane left the [Tier Management Office], looking at the special mission before him that was more of a "Space Reward" than a mission.
Whether it was the reward or the mission type, it specifically indicated that this was a reward that could not be triggered again.
With Kaito Shirogane's current understanding of the overall power system of the Space, he roughly knew that this was the first time the Space gave special treatment and strengthening to the Reincarnators it drafted.
Probably starting from this so-called Third Ladder, Reincarnators can finally gain the recognition of the Space, transforming from useless information that could be discarded casually to beginning to possess some value.
Therefore, the Space bestows a reward to all Reincarnators who reach this stage, an enhancement directly carried out utilizing the high-dimensional power of the [Observers].
Authority!
Among the players of the myriad heavens, those capable of controlling this power can mostly already be considered higher races of various worlds.
Dragons, High Elves, Higher Demons, etc., can mostly control this power. And at this moment, as long as they complete the limit-breaking mission, Third Ladder Reincarnators will similarly enter that level.
Becoming one of the rulers of a certain domain.
Because Kaito Shirogane had already obtained another authority at this time, he also knew that there is a concept of "Adaptability" for this power of [Authority].
Reincarnators are different from those higher races. It's not an innate racial ability, not being born controlling a certain power.
Therefore, a Reincarnator's control over an authority probably similarly requires a process of gradual deepening and advancing.
Both being Third Ladder Reincarnators, some have already become the top rulers of the Space, while some have no essential difference from Second Ladder Reincarnators, at most having a higher energy upper limit.
This is a stairway where the upper and lower limits will be completely pulled apart. The Third Ladder will become the watershed between the strong and the weak.
Kaito Shirogane's gaze frivolously swept over the Reincarnators with various different avatars in the shantytown. He was very certain that among them, not even one in a hundred would ultimately be able to "succeed"...
Kaito Shirogane sneered and turned into a streak of light, leaving the public space.
A night's time quickly passed as he immersed himself in the cultivation of the magnetic field. Artoria, like a sculpture, stood leaning on her sword above the black tower, overlooking the increasingly bustling [Paradise].
Her eyes were cold, only feeling that this city, amidst chaos, similarly contained incomparable vitality.
Different from the weakness of the commoners under her rule, these people exuded an intense vitality at all times, as if they would die in the next second. They reveled in debauchery, sang merrily in broad daylight, and quite a few men and women copulated on rooftops.
The bizarre prosperity made Artoria increasingly feel that her past self had chosen the wrong way of the King.
Many times, weak subjects completely cannot realize what they are doing, nor can they control their own destiny.
They merely follow blindly. Giving them the noble right of "choice" conversely became their burden.
Because they couldn't see the world clearly, they made wrong choices, ultimately heading towards a tragic ending.
The solidified black magical energy on Artoria's body radiated as if substantive, making her a "Law Enforcer" in the eyes of other Reincarnators in [Paradise] who was paying attention to the order of Paradise at all times.
Fearing that in the next second, they would be attacked by that terrifying magical energy.
The King chooses, the King bears the burden. Since one is the King, one should choose the destiny for those weak and ignorant subjects.
Artoria's will became increasingly firm, and that tyrannical killing intent actually became purer.
The so-called subjects only need to follow behind the King. All other thoughts are just burdens...
Kaito Shirogane opened his eyes, his black long hair dissipating. The corners of his mouth hooked up, as if seeing a resplendent beautiful scenery.
The bright and clean heart of a benevolent King is rapidly turning into a domineering black-red. A dictatorial and tyrannical Overlord is gestating~
Within Paradise, the Snow Witch and Yun Wujiu hadn't moved for a long time, both of them tense all over. Only after a long while did the Snow Witch wave her hand and relax.
"It's fine now. Probably that Mercenary Tao did something to Artoria again; her magical energy fluctuations have become even darker..."
She didn't dare to directly release detection magic towards the black tower, even consciously avoiding perceiving that area, precisely to avoid causing unnecessary misunderstandings.
The collapse of the [Far East Magic Association] is already a high-probability event. Regardless of whether Solomon can ultimately obtain the power he desires in the Marvel world, herself, who has already grown rapidly, the Tree Herder, and [Jin], it's impossible for them to return to the past model where Solomon could completely dominate the assembly.
Even mid-level members like Yun Wujiu, knowing that behind the hidden mission Solomon executed at the cost of sacrificing assembly members was completely his own personal selfish motives, probably wouldn't be as compliant anymore.
Fundamentally, in this Title Contention Tournament, people like herself similarly have the opportunity to compete with Solomon for those top-tier titles.
Mercenary Tao is a retreat path she specifically left behind. She is unwilling to offend Mercenary Tao in any possible form.
Yun Wujiu's eyes indeed flickered a few times. Artoria's magical energy fluctuations were extremely intense. Probably in a full-power outburst state, he completely wasn't an enemy she needed more than one strike to defeat. This despairing gap unbalanced his mindset.
Soon, his eyes turned black again, nosebleeds constantly dripping, the dark side in his heart taking dominance. He fiercely pounced on Snow Witch Fu Qinghuan, roughly wanting to strip off the other party's clothes.
Fu Qinghuan was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted. Rings of magic light lit up all over her body. In the next moment, freezing air erupted, and Yun Wujiu was directly frozen in place.
Similar small changes and conflicts are absolutely not isolated cases in Paradise. But as long as they don't destroy the buildings of Paradise and cause a huge commotion, they won't attract Mercenary Tao's punishment.
The Professor sat on the balcony, seemingly able to take in all the various anomalies. He casually threw away the shattered ruby, swirling the coffee in his hand. In the distance, dawn had already arrived...
Just as the sun rose, the Professor waited below the high tower. Finally, Artoria, whose momentum had become even more cruel, appeared and announced that Mercenary Tao allowed him to enter the tower.

Professor Ye Kai saw the Space's prompt. This squad invitation, just like Mercenary Tao himself, always radiated an unsettling atmosphere.
He raised his eyes, glanced at the powerful martial artist who was looking down at him with an unhurried manner, and chose to accept.
Both knew the other party was a Special Reincarnator, so neither hid their numbers.
"Confirm Join."
