Chapter 444: Levels of Wishes
Chapter 444: Levels of Wishes
Changping Mystic Realm.
A flood of information rushed into Li Wu's mind, causing him to collapse with a loud 'pa'.
The sudden fall startled Little Skeleton, who quickly rushed over to check on Li Wu.
After poking Li Wu with a finger, Little Skeleton relaxed, confirming that his Li Wu was unharmed. Then, it quickly produced a blanket and covered Li Wu with it.
After covering him, Little Skeleton waved its fist at the onlookers nearby, warning them not to reveal its secret of covering Li Wu with a blanket.
As the little guy was showing off, a pig charged over and knocked Little Skeleton to the ground.
...
Meanwhile, on Li Wu's side.
His collapse wasn't dangerous; he was merely absorbing the feedback from the fragment.
As someone who had used and made wishes with fragments before, Li Wu was qualified to learn more about them.
The fragment, regardless of Li Wu's willingness, directly transmitted all the information to him.
The information from the fragment was mainly divided into two parts.
One part was about the fragment itself.
Through the fragment's information, Li Wu learned that it was divided into two parts: the frame and the door.
The two parts had different powers; the frame tended to create seals, while the door part's power leaned towards granting wishes.
The fragment in Li Wu's hand was from the door part.
The fragment wasn't large, and its power wasn't very strong after refinement; it could only grant wishes up to Level 1.
Level 1 wishes were the lowest level of door wishes, affecting only a small area and a few people. Resurrection was about this level, but success depended on the individual's strength and various factors.
Above that was Level 2 wishes, which could alter the world's environment and create mystic realms.
To fulfill such a wish, larger door fragments were needed, at least five to ten times the size of Li Wu's fragment, and they had to be refined.
Finally, there were Level 3 wishes.
The prerequisites for this level were insane, requiring all door fragments to be collected and refined.
The requirements were challenging, but the rewards were terrifying. If achieved, it would be almost limitless.
Additionally, the door fragment showed Li Wu various examples of wishes' might at different levels.
Level 2 and Level 3 wishes were truly awe-inspiring.
Unfortunately, Li Wu wasn't very interested or concerned.
He only wanted to know why Dudu hadn't come back to life, and he was more intrigued by another piece of information the fragment hinted at.
It seemed to be a coordinate, leading to another world beyond.
Intuition told him that world was likely where his cheap old man and the Zeroer were currently located.
It was also the world the door fragment wanted him to go to.
But Li Wu didn't want to go there.
Dudu hadn't resurrected yet, and he didn't want to leave either.
Based on the door's information, Li Wu analyzed why Dudu hadn't revived, concluding that either the fragment's power was too low or Dudu was still alive.
Only these two possibilities could explain why his wish hadn't come true.
And Li Wu preferred to believe the latter.
But he knew that his belief didn't change reality.
"However, this is easy to verify."
Li Wu opened his eyes as he spoke.
The first thing he saw was a thick blanket covering his body.
Li Wu knew with his little finger that he knew who had covered him.
Little Skeleton had been sneaking around, and Li Wu was aware of it; he just didn't say anything.
Little Skeleton thought Li Wu was unaware, so it hurried to remove the blanket whenever he showed signs of waking.
It didn't consider how it always managed to be so timely, thanks to Li Wu's silent cooperation.
As Li Wu saw the blanket and feigned a groan, Little Skeleton, who was being chased by Tuan Tuan, quickly rushed over, removed the blanket, and wiped its nonexistent sweat with its bony hand.
Lu Wu finally 'woke up' and caught up with the pig that was chasing him from behind.
After examining it from top to bottom, he finally confirmed that this resurrected pig was the same one that had died before.
Everything about it could be fake, but its eyes couldn't lie.
More importantly, Lu Wu vaguely saw the contract between this pig and Dudu within its body.
This was what Lu Wu had been searching for and what he desired.
The existence of this contract proved one thing: Lu Wu's Dudu was not dead.
Knowing this, a brief joy appeared on Lu Wu's face, but soon he became worried again.
"If Dudu isn't dead, where is she now? What's her current condition?"
Lu Wu couldn't help but feel anxious and concerned.
"Stupid pig, do you know how to contact your owner?"
Lu Wu, desperate for a solution, couldn't help but place his hopes on the pig.
In response, the pig gave him a dazed look, and from that look, Lu Wu understood.
"It seems finding her directly is out of the question. Then, do you know who your owner has been in contact with during that time or any secrets she might have?"
Tuan Tuan was startled, and its dazed look and expression returned.
Lu Wu's forehead veins began to bulge.
He then asked several more questions.
After asking a few questions, Lu Wu almost turned this pig into a roasted suckling pig.
He realized that this pig was of no use at all.
After Little Skeleton and Little Golden Dragon left, it spent its days eating and sleeping, unaware of anything else. It continued like this until it was blasted along with Dudu at Elder Mountain.
Upon learning this, Lu Wu trembled with anger.
A single Gateway Shard had saved a pig, but it had no useful information. He couldn't help but roar at the pig, "You eat and sleep all day, are you even a pig?"
This time, Tuan Tuan wasn't dazed anymore. It solemnly nodded its head.
It was indicating, yes, indeed, it was a pig.
Lu Wu almost spat out a mouthful of old blood and threw the pig aside, out of sight and out of mind.
After tossing the pig aside, Lu Wu's gaze returned to the shard.
This used shard had reverted to its original unrefined state, and if Lu Wu wanted to make another wish, he would need to refine it again.
Lu Wu tried to refine it slightly and discovered that the shard's difficulty had not decreased after being refined once; instead, it seemed even more challenging.
If refining it before was on hard mode, now it would probably require hell mode to refine.
This situation led Lu Wu to give up on refining it and directly absorb it.
[Ding! You have successfully absorbed a Gateway Shard and obtained 5 points of Primal Essence!]
This shard was larger than the ones Lu Wu had absorbed before, and it provided relatively more Primal Essence.
"With 5 points of Primal Essence, it should be enough to upgrade to an Epic 3-Star, right?"
Lu Wu pondered as he gathered all his summoned creatures, testing them one by one.
"Little Skeleton doesn't qualify, it needs 10 points.
Little Golden Dragon is also not eligible, it needs 9 points. The Ten Thousand Phenomena Sword needs 8 points, and even the lowest requirement, Hahaha, needs 6 points. Just a little more!"
This was a bit of a setback, getting stuck at this point.
"I can't do anything more, I'll have to seek help from old friends."
In the 6199 version, check for errors!
As Lu Wu spoke, his main body fell into a deep sleep.
At the same time, far away in Zone 2, the Science Alliance gathered.
The top members of the Science Alliance convened for a simple reason: Lu Wu's situation.
This day had been particularly long for many people.
Especially for the big shots of the Science Alliance, it had been a series of heavy blows.
One after another, the news hit them: first, Lu Wu's situation; then, the Fei family's extermination; next, the Holy Church Alliance's destruction; and finally, Elder Mountain.
Each piece of news struck at the fragile hearts of these big shots.
Especially when the news of the Holy Church Alliance's destruction arrived, the Science Alliance's leaders were stunned for a long time, even unwilling to accept this reality.
Although the relationship between the Science Alliance and the Holy Church Alliance wasn't very harmonious, they had been interacting for decades, accustomed to each other's presence and acknowledging each other's strength.
Now, for this organization to suddenly disappear, it naturally shook the Science Alliance.
(End of Chapter)
As Lu Wu's rampage continues, the Elder Mountain has now been sealed off, leaving the Science Alliance in a state of panic. With the Holy Church Alliance already destroyed, the signs of Lu Wu's dominance are becoming increasingly apparent.
In this situation, how can the leaders of the Science Alliance possibly get a good night's sleep? As soon as news of the Holy Church Alliance's demise reached them, they immediately gathered for an emergency meeting. Hours have passed, and they still have no solution, leaving them anxious and uneasy.
Everyone is now filled with uncertainty. What should the Alliance do next, and what about them? No one has an answer, and no one dares to speak up.
The group sits in silence for hours. Finally, the Grand Sage of the Science Alliance can't bear it any longer.
"Speak up, say something! You're all usually so talkative, what's with the sudden silence? Come on, Ford, stand up and tell us what we should do next."
The Grand Sage has called out a name, but the person addressed remains silent.
The reason for their hesitation is that the information about Lu Wu has been shared from the Elder Mountain. The Science Alliance now knows about Lu Wu's infinite clones, and no one dares to speak out of turn.
If they say the wrong thing, given Lu Wu's known temperament, they could lose their heads. The Grand Sage, seeing their fearful expressions, is furious.
"What are you afraid of? This is the Science Alliance, the pinnacle of technological prowess. Here, we have the most advanced techniques in the Alliance. Speak freely, say whatever is on your mind."
"I can't believe it. He can't possibly infiltrate..."
"Excuse me!"
Before the Grand Sage could finish, a leader among them timidly raises his hand.
The Grand Sage smiles, "Go ahead, share your thoughts."
The room falls silent. All eyes are now on this leader, filled with admiration. It seems everyone is in awe of this brave individual who dares to speak.
Under everyone's gaze, this leader appears nervous.
"I didn't mean to say anything, I'm new here and not fully informed. But it seems this person doesn't want me to infiltrate. So I was wondering, did I intrude by coming here unannounced?"
The room is initially stunned by this leader's words, but soon, they all react with changing expressions.
"I'm sorry for barging in uninvited. Why don't you continue your meeting, and I'll wait outside until you're done?"
As he speaks, Lu Wu, in the body of this leader, stands up, ready to leave politely, making way for the meeting. This gesture startles the leaders of the Science Alliance.
"No, no, no! Mr. Lu Wu, you're just joking."
"It's our honor to have you here, Mr. Lu Wu. There's no intrusion at all!"
"Yes, yes, Mr. Lu Wu, please sit. Would you like some drinks or snacks? You really should've informed us beforehand, we didn't prepare properly!"
The leaders stand up, their faces filled with flattery. Even the Grand Sage's face bears an embarrassed smile.
Who would've thought that the person they were talking about is right here in the room.
At this moment, the leaders of the Science Alliance choose to ignore Lu Wu's uninvited presence and the fact that this body is one of Lu Wu's clones. After all, they've just received news of Lu Wu's terrifying achievements, and no one dares to provoke him.
On the other hand, Lu Wu appears particularly kind.
"Don't be nervous, everyone knows I'm not a bad person. I just missed my old friends and wanted to pay a visit. As for this clone, I'll return it to its owner soon, no harm will come to it."
With Lu Wu's assurance, the leaders of the Science Alliance breathe a sigh of relief, followed by a chorus of flattering voices.
"Mr. Lu Wu, you're so kind!"
"Welcome, Mr. Lu Wu!"
"Mr. Lu Wu's presence brings glory to the Science Alliance!"
...
A few minutes later, Lu Wu, satisfied, waves his hand, "That's enough, that's enough. Let's not overdo it, or I'll feel embarrassed.
So, we have an agreement, right? Alright, I'll take my leave. Continue with your meeting!"
With these words, Lu Wu's possessed body slumps down.
