Chen Qi couldn't help but frown, a puzzled expression on his face.
By all logic, with his inspiration's great success in identification, he should have received enough information.
But as it stood, the information he had was pitifully scarce.
There was no objective, nor any conditions for clearing the trial—
Moreover, the war had already ended, and there was nothing left for him to do.
What exactly am I supposed to do? Did I enter an incomplete crack? Chen Qi was momentarily confused.
Clang!
Suddenly, the sound of a long blade hitting the ground rang out.
Chen Qi quietly shifted his feet, looking in the direction of the sound.
Over the continuously stacking corpses, a red figure sat proudly on top of the heap.
It was clad in dark red light armor, like a flame in the night, both beautiful and dangerous. Its hair, black as ink, was carelessly draped over its back, blood beads clinging, fluttering with the wild wind.
"Huff—"
A sigh of relief sounded as it slowly stood up, picked up the long blade from the pile of bodies, and steadily walked towards Chen Qi.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
The sound of casual footsteps approached.
"This person is—"
The figure must be an important character in this crack.
Getting closer and closer to Chen Qi, ever so near—
Chen Qi held his breath and asked,
"You are—"
Thwack!
However, before he could say anything, it casually twisted the long blade in its hand and gently thrust forward.
Chen Qi instinctively drew his blade, but the opponent was simply too fast—
Sheer suppression of attributes—
The crimson blade pierced through his heart; his body emitted a painful cry until his brain—
Chen Qi's eyes looked down to see his body frozen in place.
I got instantly killed... a thought crossed Chen Qi's mind.
The next moment, the dense red fog engulfed him again—
The sound of rushing wind rose.
Chen Qi opened his blurry eyes once again to look at his heart.
His heart was intact; he had returned to this place once more.
And at this moment, prompts from the crack appeared before his eyes again.
[You died.
Evaluation: Like an ant casually crushed to death.]
[Reidentifying the crack...]
[Identification highly successful...]
[Name of the crack: The Last Soldier.
Description: The monster atop the heap of corpses has won the war, and your role is the last insignificant being on its way home, needing only a single slash to kill you.
Reminder: The strength of the monster is determined by the tier level you enter the crack with.
Condition to clear: Defeat the enemy on the pile of corpses or until time runs out.]
Just an insect killed with one slash... Chen Qi twitched the corner of his mouth as the cold feeling in his heart lingered.
[You have successfully identified three key traits of this crack.]
[Blessing of Immortality: The duration of this crack is three days, and during this time, should you die, you will return to the crack's starting point.]
[Power of the Dice: Within this crack, as death deepens, you can give your enemy corresponding negative attribute reduction buffs. (Up to a hundred times)]
[Land of Trial: Within this crack, your Transcendent skill learning ability is greatly enhanced. You can refine your own powers through battle, quickly complete the digestion of skills, and gain exceptional insight, granting you a small chance to break through the limits of your own skills during combat.]
Chen Qi swiftly scanned the BUFFs before him.
It was like a game instance, one that challenged him endlessly.
The first trait was precisely his current situation.
As for the second, the more I die, the stronger I become.
Chen Qi quickly focused on the third trait.
Transcendent learning ability greatly enhanced, along with exceptional insight!
Chen Qi gasped in surprise.
These two could be considered god-level BUFFs!
In simple terms, a skill that normally required a month to master could possibly be grasped within a single day.
Even the Book Image Sacred Land of the White Tower Federation would struggle to provide such powerful BUFFs! Stay updated via empire
After all, even with a Skill Card, it would take a considerable amount of time and Spiritual Points to fully master a skill, but this crack accelerated the process.
This is the trial ground of the Blade Witch, truly worthy of being a main storyline instance... Chen Qi couldn't help but muse.
Even without considering the ultimate reward for clearing the trial, the instance itself was an incredibly high reward!
Chen Qi couldn't help swallowing.
[Trial participant, please select your difficulty level! (The reward for clearing will vary with the difficulty.)]
[You will randomly select one trait and choose multiple traits.]
Wait a second!
This inspiration!
A smile crept across Chen Qi's lips.
Soon, a plethora of trait options appeared before him.
These special inspirations often appeared in Dice Phase cracks.
And those dedicated to the Dice Phase could seize an additional chance to randomize from these options.
In the player forums, Dice Phase cracks were always popular among a vast number of players!
The randomness of a Dice Phase crack can turn a monotonous instance into one of varying difficulty and change.
In the player forums, the Black Blood Empire's main line could accommodate hundreds of thousands of players in the colossal Blade Dice Phase crack 'Dungeon,' which was the most popular instance crack!
Therefore, Chen Qi was also quite fond of Dice Phase cracks, and he even had a lucky dice given to him by the variable creature Palu.
Selecting traits... Chen Qi excitedly looked at the options.
[Agility Increase: Enemy's agility +20%, rating +50]
[Physical Enhancement: 'Enemy's' health increased by 20%, rating +50.]
[Physical Enhancement II: 'Enemy's' health increased by 50%, rating +100]
