Chapter 617 - 369: This Is What a Genius Looks Like!
He finally understood why Su Huan, also being Tier Three, could defeat him as if it was nothing; it was like two people fighting, one bare-handed, the other with a gun, impossible to compete."We’re ascending."
Yu Yue reminded Su Huan in front of her.
Lin Jin and Liang Kuan stood on both sides of Ma Hongyu, who looked helpless, "I’ve said everything there is to say, and I’m in this state already. Do you really need to guard against me like this?"
The Fungus Carpet trembled violently, sounds of earth and rocks sliding could be heard outside, and a gigantic crack appeared in the dark red space.
The sky was shrouded in gray fog, pitch black, not even a finger could be seen, like a rift in a red abyss, beyond which was an even deeper void.
The Fungus Carpet enveloping everyone suddenly unfurled, Lin Jin flicked out several tongues of flame that floated in mid-air, instantly dividing into three, then five, then twelve, the little torches illuminating the sky, causing the following soldiers to gasp in shock.
The entire terrain around Tianze Base had been altered, the Fungus Carpet rolled like waves, crashing onto the base with booming sounds no less than the flood in the Flood Zone.
The reinforced concrete buildings instantly turned to powder, the ground caving into a pit several hundred meters in circumference.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
The immense heart in the middle continued to beat, not stopping, and instead, getting faster.
Like a drum being struck hastily in battle.
In the middle, Su Huan still showed no intention of taking action, allowing the situation to develop.
Fungus Carpet folded from all directions, layers upon layers of fungi laying on the base like repeatedly kneaded dough, each time stretching to the highest point, and then under the extension of the fungi, abruptly retracting to the ground with a violent demeanor, surging toward the heart above the base.
As the heartbeat accelerated, the speed at which the Fungus Carpet lifted and landed also became more rapid, the roaring thunder converging into one from all directions.
The Fungus Carpet within ten kilometers seemed to have folded here, even the tallest lighthouse was submerged, beyond the base’s small knoll, was a surrounding ring of mountains!
Stretching up to three hundred meters high, the Fungus Carpet swept in with countless severed giant umbrella mushrooms and bizarre mushrooms!
The already dim world was completely devoid of light.
The earth shattered, the scene of the collapsing pillar of heaven did not stir fear in this group of armed soldiers, instead, they were cheerfully discussing inside their internal communications, in a lifetime, how many times does one get to witness such a spectacular apocalyptic disaster?
Whatever, the sky falling is the conductor’s job to handle.
For the veterans, trusting the conductor was easier than trusting themselves.
"Had enough to see?" Su Huan appeared mysteriously before everyone.
Ma Hongyu, who was entranced, startled, "Huh?"
Su Huan looked at him speechlessly, "It’s about to come down, aren’t you going to run? Is something wrong with your brain?"
Ma Hongyu’s face twisted; he had just managed to gain a little understanding when Su Huan interrupted him, this son of a bitch boasting before leaving and then turning around to curse at him!
"Who has something wrong with their brain? I am comprehending the rules!"
"What did you comprehend?"
Ma Hongyu was speechless, his heart more oppressive, "Almost something."
Su Huan sneered, "Then it’s nothing, what genius are you pretending to be?"
When the big Fungus Carpet annihilated everything, indeed some rules emerged, but it wasn’t the concentrated, stabilized kind as if organized by someone, like in the stones, but a chaotic mix.
Su Huan was the closest, and having already comprehended energy rules, had more understanding of the rules, it took just a breath, and he sensed the [Energy] [Life] [Nurture] [Competition] [Death] [Cycle]...
Hundreds of underlying rules that form the world!
Moreover, until he stopped sensing, they were still emerging.
If one rule is a result, then behind each rule are tens of thousands of computational formulas!
Forget understanding, Su Huan didn’t even dare to take a serious look, just brushed past with a shallow perception, this terrifying amount of information entering the brain could directly render him into an idiot.
At this moment, he finally knew what Ma Hongyu’s teacher had seen back then.
It should have been some kind of rule seen on the energy core of the Fungus Carpet.
And then turned one completely infeasible crazy plan into another completely impossible crazy plan.
To advance to Tier Four, one needs to master the rules, but with Ma Hongyu’s speed of understanding, before he "sees" a rule clearly, he would already have died from the unstable genes in advancing to Tier Four.
Since he couldn’t gain any benefit, Su Huan naturally planned on retreating.
Even though being hit wouldn’t kill him, he’s just extreme, not extremely stubborn, without benefits, he wouldn’t stand here resisting.
Liang Kuan responded, just about to turn around, he looked puzzled towards the other side.
Only then did Su Huan notice something was off, turning his head to see, originally Lin Jin was supposed to respond, but now he didn’t react at all, his eyes fixated on the "mountains" rising from all sides, red flames blazingly burning in his pupils, to a fiery white, then a dot of black emerged from the white.
The black dot was tiny, like the diameter of a hair, yet so conspicuous in the fiery white pupils, even Director Xu noticed the change on him.
Red lines appeared behind Lin Jin’s ears, flowing like lava down his neck, dark red peeled away, revealing the blazing bright yellow inside.
The clear ripple of rules made Su Huan’s eyelids twitch.
"He comprehended a rule as a Tier Two?!"
Beside him, Ma Hongyu’s incredulous roar erupted, bouncing ridiculously like a scalded frog on the Fungus Carpet.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
"This is fucking unscientific!"
"Tier Two, he’s just Tier Two, he hasn’t even fully developed his ability, why can he access the rules?"
"It must be because the rules here are too abundant, it must be, I’m getting serious now, I really got serious this time, Su Huan, damn it, I almost comprehended a rule just now, ahhhhhh—"
Su Huan’s mouth twitched, ignoring Ma Hongyu who was losing control.
Because the Fungus Carpet above finally came crashing down.
Su Huan looked at Lin Jin who was comprehending the rules, not anxious, just a genuine hint of a smile.
"Boom—"
Heaven and earth fell silent.
The land within a kilometer radius, along with the base beneath everyone’s feet, heavily sank.
As if everything was covered under this terrifying Fungus Carpet, soldiers in power armor, Lin Jin comprehending the rules, the pulsating heart.
Even the Fungus Carpet no longer leaped but slid down slowly along the slope.
Until the drum-like pulsation resonated again, and the flowing Fungus Carpet converged once more.
A crisp curse followed, "Aren’t you done yet?"
Then an even more violent rumble erupted in the Spore Zone, audible even to those hiding in the Tianze Base and train.
Hu Shuo halted the report from his subordinate, listened for a moment, then smiled, "What do you want to say?"
"Today’s broadcast and..."
"Everything as usual."
...
"Tsk tsk, just this little patch?"
Su Huan circled twice around Lin Jin’s naked body, a large patch of vivid rule lines extended from behind Lin Jin’s ear to his shoulder, indeed this kid comprehended a rule, but the area was rather small, not even a third of his own first time.
Beside him, Yu Yue turned her face away, blushing.
Director Xu chose to directly touch, and the old man presented a stern demeanor, making it hard for Lin Jin to decline.
Liang Kuan held down Ma Hongyu beside him, that guy was jealous to the point of madness, afraid if he wasn’t held down, he would come and take a bite out of Lin Jin.
Su Huan curiously asked, "What rule did you see?"
Lin Jin recalled the state just now, a grave seriousness flashing in his eyes, "I saw [Destruction]."
"Destruction?"
Su Huan patted his shoulder thoughtfully, indeed there’s such a rule, and it holds a substantial proportion, quite similar to his [Energy], yet similarly troublesome to understand, if other rules are like a thousand years, then destruction is nine hundred years.
In essence, there’s no difference, won’t live till then.
But this didn’t hinder the conductor’s mischievousness, turning to say to Ma Hongyu, "See? This is called a genius!"
