Chapter 157 - 157

At this moment, Aleria's mind was completely blank.

Her mouth hung open, and deep in her eyes was pure shock!

"You're seeing it right—those are world origin fragments. I've been busy all this time collecting them."

"You said I was slacking off, so I figured I should pitch in. Besides, Lucky Faction needs these, right? So I grabbed a few—don't say it's too little."

Seeing Aleria frozen like a statue, Lin Bei couldn't help but chuckle.

"T-too little?"

Aleria stared, muttering, "You… you call a hundred world origin fragments 'little'? Do you even know what you're saying?"

"Enough talk—just take them first."

Lin Bei couldn't be bothered to explain; he only wanted to test his system's rebate effect.

He hit confirm and urged her on.

"Confirm fast or I'll cancel it!"

"Huh? Oh… okay."

Still dazed, Aleria nodded and clicked confirm.

Swish—

A flash of light.

Her storage space now held over a hundred world origin fragments.

"It's… it's real?! I'm… not dreaming?"

Aleria's pupils quaked, her mind reeling.

The instant the trade completed, Lin Bei got the system notice for the rebate.

[Notice: You gifted 100 world origin fragments! Triggered 10× Rebate!]

[Notice: You triggered 5,000× Critical Hit! Received 5,000,000 world origin fragments!]

"Sss—"

Lin Bei sucked in a sharp breath.

He could hardly believe it—give away 100 fragments, get a 50,000-fold return!

"Super Rebate plus Critical Hit… turns out this combo is insane!"

"That was only 10× Rebate. If both systems hit max—10,000×—I'd get… a hundred-million-fold return?"

"Holy crap, that's broken beyond belief!"

Lin Bei's heart pounded, his breathing ragged.

He sneaked a glance at the ecstatic Aleria on the screen and sighed, "Silly girl, you're over the moon over a hundred fragments—if you knew I just pocketed five million, you'd probably drop dead on the spot."

"Rebate plus Crit—utterly broken!"

"No one can ever know. From now on, this is my trump card."

"Wonder if rebated items can trigger rebates again—if they can…"

In an instant, his scalp tingled.

He opened another trade slot and placed one fragment from the rebate.

"Uh… I've got one more—take it too."

Lin Bei spouted nonsense.

Aleria gave him a long look but accepted without a word.

"Beiming, you've done something huge. With this many world origin fragments, our people on the Chaos Battlefield can finally breathe."

"Don't worry—I'll secure the best reward for you!"

"Also…"

Resolve flashed in Aleria's eyes. "I'll use my special authority to open a Hell Level Underworld passage for you ahead of schedule."

"But it's risky. If anything goes wrong in the future, I hope… you'll take me in."

"Huh?"

Lin Bei was dumbfounded.

He didn't quite get her meaning.

What disappointed him more: rebated items couldn't trigger rebates again.

So the loophole was sealed.

Still, Crit plus Rebate was already monstrous enough.

"What do you mean 'huh'? The Order Faction's Inspector has me in their sights! Your intel leaked; countless eyes are on me, waiting for me to slip."

"Soon I'll be stripped of my Overseer post—then I can't help you in secret anymore."

"So before that happens I'll open as many privileges as I can. I'll encrypt them with world origin fragments; even the next Overseer won't be able to revoke them for ages!"

"But doing so will land me in the Tribunal Court."

"Though the Judgment Faction doesn't care about lower matters, as a Cleric I'll get at least a century of imprisonment."

"I hope you'll use a character summoning card to drag me to your island—then I'll escape the cell and break free of the Chaos world's rules."

"Relax, I won't drag you down!"

"I'm currently legendary four-star; even without Rule Power, my Vitality and Spirit each top 200 trillion!"

"Big sis will carry you!"

Aleria explained patiently, beaming proudly when she spoke of her stats.

"Uh…"

Lin Bei glanced at his own stats and went speechless.

[Vitality: 340 trillion]

[Spirit: 290 trillion]

[Combat Power: 315 trillion]

Seemed he was higher across the board…

He hadn't realized he'd already overtaken her.

"Hmph, stunned by big sis's stats, aren't you?"

"Little brother Beiming, don't get cocky just because you broke ten trillion CP—you've got a long road ahead."

Aleria mistook his silence for awe, her grin widening.

"Uh…"

Lin Bei's mouth twitched; he wanted to explain.

But she cut in first: "Right, I'm strong, so an ordinary character summoning card won't pull me over."

"You'll need a Legendary Level character summoning card."

"I can't help with that—you're on your own."

"Whether big sis escapes centuries of jail is all up to you!"

Lin Bei could only shake his head wryly.

He checked his storage space.

He had plenty of character summoning cards.

But the highest was only Extraordinary Grade—nowhere near Legendary Level.

Still… he had the rebate system!

If Quality Critical Hit could trigger on rebates, a Legendary Level card was basically free.

"Well… why not give it a shot?"
