Chapter 139
Playing with a small piece of the puzzle in his hand, Li Rui sat cross-legged, his eyes flashing with a cold light.
“I’m the best at puzzles! I’ll help you!”
Luo Li rolled up her sleeves and was about to sit next to Li Rui, but he fixed her in place with a look.
Their eyes met and Li Rui’s attitude softened slightly as he felt Luo Li’s concern.
“You didn’t sleep last night, right? Go to my bedroom and sleep for a while. I’ll call you for breakfast later.”
Luo Li blushed inexplicably and nodded obediently. She walked into Li Rui’s bedroom and didn’t forget to remind him.
“Be careful, if there’s anything, remember to call me.”
“Okay, I got it.”
Li Rui quickly put the puzzles in order and drew afterimages with his hands like a machine.
Seeing that Li Rui was concentrating on the puzzle and ignoring her, Luo Li pouted and walked into the bedroom.
Although she was a nocturnal animal, her eyelids were still a little tired after not sleeping for the whole night.
She pounced on Li Rui’s bed, buried her face in the pillow, and took a deep breath.
“Waa! The captain’s scent! It’s delicious … No, it smells good~~”
Luo Li’s face was flushed as she pinched the quilt and rubbed it back and forth. She laughed foolishly.
In the living room, Li Rui turned a deaf ear to the movements in the bedroom and devoted himself to the puzzle in front of him!
The overall tone of the puzzle was black, and there was no obvious difference between each small piece. It should be very difficult, but Li Rui seemed to know the position of each piece of the puzzle and did not hesitate to arrange them in the right order.
‘Capturing the power of the law, building a reverse link channel, breaking the law … 1%.. 2%..”
With every piece of the puzzle completed, the progress of solving the puzzle increased by a notch.
Gradually, Li Rui felt as if something had awakened in his heart. He inadvertently saw the reflection of himself on the TV screen, and his face was twisted and ferocious.
There were rustling sounds in the room, as if something was surrounding him.
the power of soul distortion has been detected. Setting up a mind barrier will consume 1 Foundation order fragment per minute. Please complete the puzzle as soon as possible!
The fear, anger, resentment, and desire for self-harm and destruction quickly faded away, and Li Rui’s heart was clear.
Knowing that this was the precious time the system had bought for him, Li Rui’s hands moved even faster.
‘Breaking the rules … 13%.. 14%..”
There were more and more puzzles on the ground. Li Rui and the system worked together to dismantle the appearance of the sealed artifact, trying to find its true core!
‘Breaking the rules … 87%.. 88%..”
After more than two hours, a pattern that was two meters long and one meter wide gradually took shape, but the deep ravings and terrifying screams appeared in Li Rui’s mind again.
There seemed to be a small worm crawling back and forth under his skin, and the purple-black blood vessels squirmed on Li Rui’s face like poisonous snakes.
the power of mind distortion has broken through the mental barrier. 2 Foundation order shards are consumed every minute to maintain basic rationality. Please complete the puzzle as soon as possible!
Li Rui bit the tip of his tongue and the pain kept him awake. He quickly filled in the missing pieces of the puzzle.
‘Breaking the rules … 91%.. 92%..”
When the cracking progress was more than 90%, Li Rui suddenly had an idea.
His speed increased again!
Even if the wrong puzzle was filled in, the pattern on it would twist and become the correct one.
It was no longer me adapting to the rules, but the rules adapting to me!
I’m the ruler!
‘Breaking the rules … 98%.. 99%..”
The last piece of the puzzle was filled in, and a terrifying wave came from the complete picture. Li Rui couldn’t help but stand up and look at the picture on the ground.
It was an absolute void, a void that did not even have the concept of ‘existing’!
In the dark, the pattern on the ground became a door connecting to the void, and a few familiar yet strange voices sounded in Li Rui’s ears.
It was as if the person closest to him was calling out to him from the depths of the void!
“Come on … Come on … Merge with us and never separate again …”
In the depths of the void, five gemstones of different colors were faintly visible. Li Rui stared at the abyss in a daze. His eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of gray and lost focus. One of his feet reached out to the puzzle.
‘Breaking the rules … 100%”
Just as Li Rui was about to take the last step, a thunderous sound exploded in his mind.
The puzzle on the ground was like a broken monitor, and the dark void twisted into various shapes and colors.
In the end, all the patterns converged into a small dot.
refining the rules …
the host has annihilated a mythical-grade sealed artifact and obtained 1 chaos essence.
Li Rui’s eyes refocused and the light appeared in his eyes again. He looked at the puzzle under his feet and found that they had all turned white.
“What is the essence of chaos?”
Li Rui put down his toes and asked the system.
“The power of laws at the origin level is called the essence of chaos. It can be used to open up and expand the runic lands!”
The system’s answer was still brief, but Li Rui’s eyes slowly narrowed.
Open up the rune land … It seemed that the construction of the runeland was more difficult than he had imagined!
Li Rui let out a breath and looked at the iron box and puzzle, which seemed like ordinary things, and frowned.
“System, these things are no longer dangerous, right?”
without the power of the natural order, they’re just the substance that forms the surface. They’re dead and don’t pose any danger.
Nodding, Li Rui did not hesitate to mess up the pure white puzzle, put it into the box, and was ready to throw it away.
He was annoyed whenever he saw this thing.
[ it is recommended that the host keep them. Spiritual substances that can bear the origin-level laws are very rare. In the future, the host can use them as materials to build your own divine equipment. ]
“What’s this? Use real objects to make it? You can even bring system equipment into the real world?”
Li Rui’s actions suddenly stopped and the look of disdain in his eyes immediately changed.
I didn’t expect this thing to be a good thing.
[ yes. After the rune land is established, the Enlightenment rune will be activated, and the host will be able to forge equipment in the real world. ]
After hearing the system’s answer, Li Rui immediately thought of the note below the Enlightenment system.
[ enlightenment: outwit mortals ]
[ create new tools and distort the rules in the Runeterra. ]
‘A new tool and a distortion of the rules …’ As he savored this sentence, excitement welled up in his heart.
Perhaps, what the system had revealed was only the tip of the iceberg!
Li Rui had a hunch that the real power of the system would only be revealed to the world after the land of runes was established!
With a flick of his wrist, the black iron box instantly disappeared from his palm.
A small black dot appeared in the empty equipment bar.
Although he didn’t need it for the time being, it was better to carry such materials with him!
Suddenly, a ray of light shot out from his body and condensed into a little loli.
“Wuwuwu … Big brother, I want to pee …”
