Consuming lifespan to draw rewards, I'm invincible in the apocalypse!

"No living thing can survive where the light of a grain of rice shines."

As he spoke, worried that Jiang Yi might underestimate his tool, Li Xiang added, "The effect of this baptismal world should have a very, very high priority; it's the kind of thing that ordinary resurrection methods can't work!"

Jiang Yi remained silent for a moment, then analyzed:

"In other words, its definite effect is merely to wipe out living beings within a certain range, and it does not involve the destruction of the world."

"Huh?" Li Xiang didn't immediately understand what Jiang Yi was trying to say.

The quick-witted No. 3 immediately realized: "You mean..."

"Even if he uses that grain of rice light, it will not actually destroy this moonless land."

As he spoke, No. 3 immediately thought, "In fact, according to him, the word used to describe that effect is 'baptism'..."

"As far as I know, the word 'baptism' should have a positive connotation in any race."

"That is to say..."

Wuqi No. 3 quickly organized his thoughts and then analyzed:

"The Lord of the Moonless Kingdom has deceived us!"

"Perhaps, after he uses up the light of the grain of rice, all the Wuqi in the Moonless Land will indeed die..."

"But the land without a moon will not be destroyed!"

"It might even evolve in a positive direction!"

Upon hearing this, Li Xiang realized, "I see!"

"If that's the case, then it makes sense that the Lord of the Moon wants me to use the Light of Rice Grains here!"

After realizing what had happened, he looked like he had almost fallen for the Lord of the Moon's trick.

However, No. 3 gave him another cold laugh:

Do you know what a "open conspiracy" is?

"Even if you know the Lord of the Moon's scheme, what can you do about it?"

"You now only have two choices—"

"Either you remain trapped in this Moonless Land until you are cursed with immortality and become the slave of the Moonless Lord!"

"Either you use that grain of light willingly, fulfilling the Lord of the Moonless's scheme, and at the same time helping all the Wuqi and yourself to be freed!"

Then, Wuqi No. 3 changed his tune again:

"Of course, given the characteristics of this special turntable, the effect of this grain of light should not reach you, its owner."

So, you still have a glimmer of hope.

After hearing that, Li Xiang realized it was true!

Now, for him, more important than analyzing the Lord of the Moon's motives is—

He didn't want to be cursed, and he didn't want to become someone else's slave!

In particular, his mental attributes were already low.

Staying in this black fog is like being exposed to a virus; something bad could happen at any moment!

Thinking about this, Li Xiang became a little anxious, and his palms, which were holding the white rice grains, were sweating.

He directly addressed Jiang Yi and Wuqi No. 3, stating:

"I don't want to be cursed, and I don't want to become a puppet!"

"So now it seems... we'll have no choice but to use this tiny bit of light!"

"It's good that it was used; it's a relief for you!"

Clearly, this fool Xiang was tacitly acknowledging that Jiang Yi would rather die than become a puppet.

As he said this, he even considered using the Light of Rice Grain on the spot without waiting for Jiang Yi and Wuqi No. 3 to react.

However, Jiang Yi immediately followed up with his statement, "I don't want to be free."

Li Xiang frowned: "What do you mean? You're not allowing us to use the Light of Rice Grains? Then tell me, how do we break the curse, how do we escape from here?"

It's clear that Li Xiang is in a hurry.

And his doubts...

Jiang Yi was unable to provide an answer for the time being.

Moreover, he still had many questions in his mind—

For example, Zhang Xiaotian in his previous life probably went through a similar process to Li Xiang: befriending "Wuqi," obtaining the "Wuqi Face" and the "Directional Teleportation Stone," and then exploring the Silver Horn Realm.

So, what exactly did Zhang Xiaotian go through?

Has he also been to the Land of No Moon?

Did he also meet Li Xiang?

And then there's Li Xiang...

The rule-based lucky bonus of "fools have foolish luck";

And it offers 5 special options...

Such a being, in theory, should have a bright future if it grows up!

However, in his previous life, Jiang Yi had never heard of "Li Xiang".

and so……

Did he die from spinning the special lottery wheel?

Or did he die in some other event?

Finally, one thing Jiang Yi still can't understand is—

"No Difference"...

Can we really trust them?

He offered himself up as a sacrifice, shouting that he was a "glorious traitor"...

Was it a staged performance within a conspiracy, or genuine emotion?

According to the information revealed by "Miki-3"...

All those "Wuqi" are puppets in the hands of the Lord of No Moon...

They are controlled by the black runes and have no sense of self.

And it seems that they are hostile to the entire human race.

but!

Jiang Yi then thought of...

In the Colosseum, he once fought against an unorthodox opponent.

Then I received a token and joined the "Meet at the Summit" group chat.

Members of the group have also discussed "no discrepancies".

So many successors and candidates seem to believe that "Mujahideen" comes from an organization that is on good terms with the human race.

Their joining the group, more or less, is related to "non-discrimination".

So, does that mean the entire group was deceived?

So, what did Jin Buli, the group admin, say?

Was he one of the masterminds behind the conspiracy?

Or was he also deceived?

No...no!

No matter how Jiang Yi thought about it, he felt that there was something wrong with his current line of thinking.

Just as I was thinking of changing my perspective and re-examining things,

His eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked around sharply.

Li Xiang was waiting for his answer, but Jiang Yi's gaze made him shudder. He leaned closer to Jiang Yi and asked nervously, "W-what's wrong?"

However, Jiang Yi did not answer him.

However, other voices kept emerging, one after another, from different angles:

"If I could break free from the curse, I would choose liberation..."

"Me too, I'd rather choose liberation..."

"Hmph... liberation... it's quite nice..."

"Death is not the opposite of life, but rather a part of life itself. I am willing to face death calmly in order to achieve the sublimation of life..."

With each and every sound...

Li Xiang saw, as if seeing a ghost, one dark shadow after another flashing by.

To be honest, he is not timid at all.

The flickering shadows shouldn't have startled him.

But the problem is...

Those dark figures all looked exactly the same!

Li Xiang felt his scalp tingle and his trypophobia was about to flare up!

This made him stiffen all over, and he subconsciously moved even closer to Jiang Yi.

As the figures of "Wuqi" approached, they all looked towards Jiang Yi.

They seemed quite hostile towards Jiang Yi.

One of the "Wuqi" suddenly had a nearly tangible black talisman materialize in front of him.

There was a cold and desperate madness about him.

While displaying the black talisman, he said to Li Xiang:

"If you don't want this to happen, use that grain of rice light."

And after that sentence...

As if by prior arrangement, each of the other dark figures followed suit, displaying their own black runes.

Then, in unison, they said to Li Xiang:

"If you don't want this to happen, use that grain of rice light."

The harmonious sounds seemed to permeate the entire black mist, carrying an indescribable aura that left Li Xiang somewhat stunned.

He became increasingly nervous and sweaty as he held the tiny grain of rice between his fingers.

This scene is practically like a coup!

However, in a typical coup, the person being forced to abdicate is killed.

He was then forced to abdicate...

Indeed, a group of people begged him to grant their request and free them from their suffering...

At this moment, the image of Wuqi, whom he had previously encountered among the humans, resurfaced in Li Xiang's mind.

He suddenly thought of...

Perhaps, the great cause of humanity that "Wuqi" spoke of was not entirely a lie to him.

However, he was controlled by the black talisman, and many things were beyond his control.

Ultimately, he chose to die in a gruesome manner...

In fact, it's also a pursuit of liberation!

Exactly the same as these "undifferentiated" ones in front of us!

At that moment, Li Xiang suddenly felt a deep sense of responsibility.

It was as if a heavy responsibility had suddenly been placed on his shoulders.
